Kyoto Prefecture lobby.

Su Jiang sat behind the case, looking at Pei Yue with a headache and a cold face, and asked in a gentle tone: "Zhongshanzi, I wonder why you are beating the drum of injustice today?"

Pei Yue heard this and said sarcastically: "Mr. Su, since it is an injustice, of course there is grievance."

Su Jiang thought to himself that you are an honorable person. If you really have grievances, shouldn't you go to the Governor's Office of the Fifth Army? Besides, you and Shen Moyun have such a close relationship, you can go to Taishitai Pavilion directly. If that doesn't work, you can go to the interview.

Holy Spirit, why do you have to come to this small temple of mine?

Although he had some affection for the young man in front of him because of the briquettes incident, that was all. At most, he kept Butcher Wang's body in ice as per his request, but it was impossible to go any further.

"What grievance do you have?" After hesitating for a moment, Su Jiang forced a smile.

Pei Yue frowned slightly and said: "Mr. Su, twenty days have passed since the murder of the butcher Wang Ping'anfang in Nancheng, and the Kyoto Prefecture has still not made a verdict. You have detained the shopkeeper and clerk of my business so far. Do you dare to ask?

Where was the evidence found that they committed murder?"

Su Jiang said with some embarrassment: "The case is complicated and the Kyoto Prefecture is short of manpower, so it will take time. Zhongshanzi, I know you are anxious, but you must be considerate. The Kyoto Prefecture will investigate the case as soon as possible."

"Be considerate?" Pei Yue raised his eyes and looked at Su Jiang, who was nearly fifty years old, with a cold expression: "Okay, I do want to be considerate of Kyoto Prefecture."

He turned around and pointed at the few green-skinned gangsters who were escorted in by his own soldiers, and said sternly: "Since the Kyoto Prefecture does not dare to investigate, I will investigate for you. If you do not dare to arrest the person, I will lead people to arrest him. Mr. Su, I think so

Doesn’t that count as sharing your worries?”

Su Jiang smiled awkwardly, looked at those people and asked, "Who are they?"

Pei Yue said slowly: "They are the real murderers who killed Butcher Wang."

Su Jiang's expression changed and he hesitated: "Zhongshanzi, is there any evidence for this matter?"

Pei Yue seemed to have expected such a reply. He motioned to the soldiers to let go of those people and said calmly: "Mr. Su, I will hand over the murderer to you. How to solve the case is your business. Even if you change hands, it will be yours."

If they let them go, I won't stop them."

He paused, not hiding the sneer on his face: "I'm going to go to the palace to see Your Majesty later."

Su Jiang immediately heard the implication of his words, and immediately smiled gently and said: "Of course I believe you. Since the real murderer has been brought to justice, I will complete the case as soon as possible after questioning."

Pei Yue was noncommittal and suddenly said in a cold tone: "Now that the real murderer has been found, should those innocent people be released?"

"This..." Su Jiang began to hesitate again.

Pei Yue said nothing and looked at him with slightly narrowed eyes.

Thinking of this young man's methods and the backers behind him, Su Jiang softened and nodded, "Let them go now."

Pei Yue cupped his fists and said calmly: "Thank you."

Then he turned around and walked away, with the soldiers following closely behind him.

At this moment, Su Jiang noticed that a thin layer of cold sweat had formed on his back. He leaned back on the chair with a tired look and let out a long sigh. The staff member next to him came up and was about to speak, but he raised his hand to stop him.

Pei Yue could no longer be seen in his sight, but the young man's handsome but silent face seemed to be still in front of him. After a moment of silence, Su Jiang asked people to take the trembling green-skinned gangsters down, and waited until there was no one else in the lobby.

The talent whispered meaningfully: "I owe this boy a favor."

The staff member didn't understand at first, but he came back to his senses after thinking about it carefully. He couldn't help but feel a little curious in his heart: This Zhongshanzi looks so young, does he really have such a deep mind? Maybe he just hit it by mistake.

Su Jiang seemed to see what he was thinking, shook his head slightly and said: "If you have carefully observed what he did, you will know that this young man cannot be treated with common sense. Today, on the surface, he has lost my face, but in fact, he has made me lose face."

I picked it out of this muddy water and gave an explanation to those people, so I finally don’t have to continue pretending to be sick.”

The staff said with emotion: "It's really not easy for the Lord in the past few years."

Su Jiang sighed: "It's just a matter of human affairs. However, since I accepted his request today, I must find a way to return it to him as soon as possible, otherwise I don't know what kind of trouble it will cause in the future."

The staff thought so.

Outside the government office, Pei Yue stood quietly at the foot of the steps, with soldiers crowding behind him.

After about a stick of incense, the headman Sun Yutong personally sent a group of people out.

He was alert and saw that Pei Yue was not interested in talking to him, so he just bowed and saluted beside him, and then returned to the government office with a few servants.

Pei Yue looked at the dozen or so people in front of him and said apologetically: "Everyone is suffering because I didn't take good care of you."

The person in the lead was the shopkeeper of the Xiangyun Store's Nancheng Ping'an Fang branch. Hearing this, he quickly said: "If there was no boss, how could we come out of there intact? Thank you boss!"

The guys behind him saluted together.

Pei Yue looked at them. After staying in the prison in Kyoto Prefecture for twenty days, his face was a little pale and his mental state was not very good. But at least he was not tortured, so he could still stand. Su Jiang did

The good thing about being indecisive is that he never completes things, so Pei Yue is not worried about the safety of these people. At this moment, when he confirmed that nothing happened, he said gently: "It's a long story, but I have wronged you. I have made arrangements.

It’s a good place. Let the soldiers take you there. First, you can relieve yourself of the suffering you suffered in prison, and you will be thanked later.”

The shopkeeper said with gratitude and shame: "My boss is so kind and kind that I dare not forget it!"

Pei Yue waved his hand and said: "What kind of kindness is there? Go and take a good rest. The business will reopen soon and it cannot do without you capable people."

The shopkeeper and the clerks looked grateful, and after forcibly kowtowing to Pei Yue, they left under the leadership of several soldiers.

Pei Yue looked at their backs with complicated eyes.

Deng Zai asked with concern: "Master?"

Pei Yue calmed down, shook his head to indicate that he was fine, then mounted his horse first and said to everyone: "Go to the palace city."

This place was not far from the palace and was already under the jurisdiction of the Forbidden Army, so they could not gallop and had to move forward slowly. Otherwise, Ye Qi would really not be able to catch up with Pei Yue before he entered the palace.

Pei Yue looked at her in surprise and asked, "Why are you here?"

Ye Qi had a strange expression and motioned for him to follow her to the roadside, then took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it over.

The four words "Pei Yue Qin Qi" were written on the cover, and Pei Yue recognized the handwriting in heavy ink at a glance.

No wonder Ye Qi's expression is a little unpredictable, especially after she learned about the agreement between Pei Yue and Gu Zhen a few days ago. Even though her personality is free and easy, she will show a little jealousy from time to time.

"Open it and take a look. The person who sent the letter said the matter is very important." Ye Qi saw him holding the letter and looking embarrassed. After all, he couldn't hold it back and said with a smile.

Pei Yue opened the envelope and found only a piece of letter paper inside. He quickly read it and his expression suddenly became as weird as Ye Qi's just now.

"What's wrong?" Ye Qi asked upon seeing this.

Pei Yue didn't say anything. He handed the letter to Ye Qi and motioned for her to take a look.

Ye Qi looked at the words on the letter and had no time to appreciate Shen Danmo's extremely beautiful calligraphy. He didn't even bother to pay attention to the occasional hint of intimacy in the letter. He just looked at Pei Yue in disbelief and asked: "This is real?"

"I don't understand either. Ordinarily, my attitude towards Mr. Shen wasn't very good before, right?" Pei Yue also looked puzzled.

Ye Qi said in a complicated tone: "Then what are you going to do?"

After Pei Yue was silent for a moment, his expression became firm again and he said in a deep voice: "It's not bad news after all. When things have come to this point, I can no longer hesitate."

Ye Qi nodded and said: "It should be so."

Pei Yue glanced at the majestic palace city in the distance, and with infinite pride in his heart, he said with a firm tone: "You go back first, I will be back soon."

"good."
