A few hours ago.

"I have an idea." When Qi Ping said this in the government office room, everyone looked over.

Full of expectations.

Qi Ping held the table, his eyes reflected the firelight:

"It is definitely not enough to rely on our own strength for this matter, so we must make good use of all the cards in our hands. Although the Yuezhou prefect is only at the fourth level, he controls the official seal and uses all the court magic.

Be a supernatural being.

Before setting off from Kyoto, His Majesty gave a warrant. Boss, take the secret order later and go to Zhang Yun to ask him to cooperate in sealing off the Duke's Mansion. At least until we return, not a single bird is allowed to fly in the Duke's Mansion.

go out!"

Yu Qing nodded: "Okay. But...is this Zhang Yun reliable?"

After a few days of contact, he felt that the prefect was a bit soft...

If you knew that you were going to take action against the Wu family, would you still cooperate?

Complete the order to the letter?

Qi Ping said: "Since Your Majesty has made such an arrangement, it means that Magistrate Zhang is trustworthy. Of course, to be on the safe side, I need one of you to supervise."

Yu Qing nodded and said: "But I still need a reason. What interface should be used to block it?"

Qi Ping smiled and looked at Lao Hu:

"I'll leave this task to you. Find a way to tell her part of the information. Hey, Duke Yue sent spies to me. It's best to use it as an excuse..."

After giving instructions for a while, he also told the story of his transformation into "Chen Ping", which made everyone stunned.

Only then did I realize that Qi Ping had done a lot in the past few days.

Hu Lai nodded in agreement.

"The rest of us will go back and recharge our batteries. We will obey orders later and lead the troops to kill people." Qi Ping arranged the tasks one by one as if he were in a military camp. The atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense and restless.

Nv Jinyi stood up and was about to go back to the house to get her big chopper when she suddenly thought of something:

"Then what do you do?"

Qi Ping smiled and his body began to return to the shape of a paper man:

"I'm going to ask for a helper."

The situation at Tianjian Villa is unclear, so Qi Ping decides to take Mr. Four with him.

As for why Zhang Yun was not taken to the villa and asked to be sealed off by Mr. Four, firstly, it was because of the gap in combat power, and secondly, it was more experienced for the prefect to hold off Duke Yue.

…

…

dawn.

There were lonely stars in the sky, and the official who got the information from Hua Niang rushed towards the Duke's Mansion in the darkness.

As a wealthy family that has been rooted in the local area for three hundred years, how could it be that there are no spies in the government office?

When the official finally arrived at the side door of the Duke's Mansion, it was already dawn. He knocked on the closed wooden door and waited anxiously.

"Who is it?" After a while, the wooden door opened and an old concierge poked his head out.

The official stared and took out a wooden sign:

"I want to see the Duke. I have something important to tell you. You can't bear the penalty for delaying me!"

The old concierge was stunned for a moment: "Come in quickly!"

…

Not long after, the Duke of Yue, who was still sleeping, was awakened. He hurriedly put on his outer robe, comforted his concubine on the bed, and rushed to the inner hall.

I saw an official waiting anxiously outside the door.

"My lord!" The other party's eyes lit up and he bowed to the end.

Duke Yue, who was in his fifties and had a square face, glanced at him with no expression on his face:

"Go in and talk."

After lighting the lights in the house, Duke Yue sat in a big chair and began to ask questions. The officials immediately gave out the information sent by Hua Niang.

The Duke of Yue didn't care too much at first, but the more he listened, the uglier his face became.

The "Qi Ping" in the government office is not real, but a disguised substitute. The real person has left the government office long ago and has been secretly investigating.

"Chen Ping!" Duke Yue read this name, feeling a little annoyed.

When the second young lady talked about this person last night, he became a little suspicious, but for the sake of caution, although he wanted to inquire about it, he was not in a hurry to take action.

But unexpectedly, Hua Niang sent the news first.

Then there is indeed something wrong with Chen Ping, and... he is not an ordinary spy, but Qi Ping...

"Hua Niang said, what did they find? Are they going to take action?" Duke Yue asked.

The official shook his head: "I don't know. The captain doesn't seem to know the whole story. He just got the order and said that he knew where Immortal Lin was and was about to take action."

The Duke of Yue's heart sank.

Being suspicious by nature, he didn't believe it immediately, but Hua Niang's information combined with "Chen Ping's" performance really made him nervous.

Did that group of Jinyi really discover it?

Or... is it a scam?

He's not sure.

But he had to react, otherwise, if it were true, the consequences would be disastrous.

Thinking of this, Duke Yue's eyes sharpened, but his face nodded and said with a smile:

"Very good. You have done a great job this time. I will go to the accounting office to receive the reward later."

The official was overjoyed: "Thank you so much, Lord Duke! Thank you so much, Lord Duke!"

Duke Yue nodded, opened the door and called out a name. Not long after, a middle-aged man dressed as a nursing home came over:

"master."

"Take him to collect the money, it will be easier."

"yes."

The middle-aged nurse looked at the happy official and led him out. The Duke of Yue was waiting there. After a while, the nurse returned and said:

"Dealed with it."

"Very good." The Duke of Yue pondered for a moment, and then said: "Go to Tianjian Villa and tell Cao Yuan that the business will not be done for now."

The middle-aged nurse didn't ask anything, and simply nodded: "Yes."

With that said, he cupped his hands and walked out of the house.

…

At this time, the darkness gradually dissipated, and the white fish belly appeared in the east. A new day arrived, and servants began to get up and do work in the Duke's Mansion.

In the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Miss Hong yawned. After finishing dressing, she opened the door and saw some young ladies already busy.

Pushing open the door of the side room, he scolded the little maids who had not yet gotten up, shouting "lazy girls".

Miss Hong walked over and said, "We were busy with the banquet yesterday, so it doesn't matter if we sleep a little longer."

The old lady hurriedly let out an "ah" sound and muttered into the room: "Miss Hong is kind-hearted, so I'll spare you this time."

At this moment, suddenly, I heard the copper basin in the hand of an elderly maid falling with a loud bang, and water splashed around.

But he didn't stop, he just opened his eyes wide in shock and looked at the sky above the house:

"Yeah, what is that?"

The red girl looked curiously and her pupils shrank.

I saw a faint light on the gradually brightening sky, covering the entire sky over the Duke's Mansion, like a thin and silky mask.

"eccentric."

"What something."

A series of exclamations sounded, startling the birds in the garden. Several sparrows fluttered their wings and flew into the air, but they hit the light shield and bounced back softly.

At this moment, even the most stupid person realizes that the things in the sky may be some kind of extraordinary means. As a servant of the Duke's Mansion, his knowledge is far beyond that of ordinary people.

I know that my family supports practitioners.

"Don't panic, just wait where you are, I'll go find the second lady."

The red girl said nothing, lifted up her skirt, and left in a hurry.
