"The Fulfillment Hall must have done it!" Nangong Feiyu was the first to react, "I understand, that Zhu Ergou did not come to molest Li Cui Huan. He came to find out about Li Mei Yu's news, but he only foolishly did it when he was in the middle of it!"

"Impossible!" Xiao Hong Yu frowned, "Besides us, no one knows that Li Mei Yu is still alive. How did Zhu Ergou find out?"

"There is no wall in this world that doesn't let the wind pass through it. Furthermore, the people of the Ru Yi Hall have caused the Li Residence's tragedy, they obviously don't want anyone to stay alive!" Nangong Feiyu said.

"Since you don't want to leave anyone alive, you should kill Li Meiyu. Why did you bring her away?" Xiao Hong Yu asked.

Nangong Feiyu could not help but be speechless. After carefully pondering for a moment, he said, "Perhaps, the Ru Yi Hall wanted to use Li Meiyu's identity to inherit Li Chunfu's family property. That way, they could legally obtain the Li family's property by controlling Li Meiyu."

"Childish!" Like this, how could Li Meiyu not recognize them as the culprits? At that time, not only would the Wishing Hall be in a lawsuit, they might even lose troops. How could they possibly obtain the Li Clan's property as you have said? " Xiao Hong Yu smiled.

"You're wrong!" Nangong Feiyu gave a calm smile, "They can erase Yunqi's memories, but can't they erase Li Meiyu's memories?"

Xiao Hongyu was slightly surprised when she heard this. She then asked, "What evidence do you have to prove that Mo Yunqi's memories were erased by the Wishing Hall?"

"Isn't that obvious?" Nangong Feiyu bitterly smiled.

"That's all your guesses! Because no one knows what exactly happened in the middle! " Xiao Hong Yu said with a serious expression.

Nangong Feiyu truly did not have any proof. If he were to use guesses to incriminate someone, it would seem a little far-fetched. Thus, he was left speechless for a moment!

"This matter is not as simple as we think. Everything still needs to be planned carefully!" Li Suihua said.

"Do you still remember that Zhen Fugui?" Xiao Hong Yu suddenly asked.

Didn't Limitless kill her with one slash just to deceive Li Cui Huan? Why did you ask him? " Li Yi Hua asked.

"The person who told me about the beauty contest that day wasn't him, even though he also had a moustache!" Xiao Hong Yu smiled, "When I first met Zhen Fu Gui, I was suspicious, but it was inconvenient to expose him because I did not want to disturb Li Cui Huan's plans."

When he said those words, everyone was shocked. Nangong Feiyu could not help but ask, "You mean there are two of them?"

"It's not necessarily two men with status, but at least two of them are in charge of receiving the guests!" Xiao Hong Yu smiled bitterly, "What I am not sure is whether or not the person I saw was a person from the Fulfillment Hall."

"What are you trying to say?" Nangong Feiyu was actually stopped by her!

"If that person is one of the people of the Ru Yi Hall, then what is he trying to do by telling me the truth? Furthermore, as a disciple of the Wishful Hall, it would be normal for him to say bad things about his own family. " Xiao Hong Yu smiled indifferently, "Furthermore, if he is not a person of the Wishing Hall, then who is he? What is his purpose? "

Nangong Feiyu kept racking his brains, but he was still unable to come up with an answer. At this time, he heard an elder say, "Since that person is honest, it means that he does not have any enmity towards us! Maybe he is the sworn enemy of Yi Xiang Hall! "

"Makes sense!" Xiao Hong Yu nodded slightly. "However, since he knew that I would be registering at the Famous Guest House, it means that he knows my every move. Could it be that this person is by our side?"

Hearing this, everyone was shocked. Shu An subconsciously looked around, but he didn't see anyone suspicious. He tried asking, "How about we think of a plan to lure him out?"

"There's no need!" Li Yi Hua laughed lightly: "Since he is unwilling to show himself, it means that now is not the time. If we force him to show himself, I am afraid we will ruin his plans!"

"That's right!" It might be a good thing to have such a person protecting you in the dark! " Xiao Hong Yu smiled.

"I was thinking, could it be that the person that took Li Meiyu away was this mysterious person?" Nangong Feiyu gave a bitter smile, "Since he knows our situation very well, then we can't hide the news of Li Meiyu's life from him!"

"If he was the one who took the person away, it might be a good thing!" Li Binghua smiled faintly, "Because, Li Meiyu will at least be safe in his hands!"

"Not necessarily!" Xiao Hong Yu frowned slightly, "Because Li Mei Yu's identity is too important. If that person is making use of her, what should we do?"

"If that's the case, then the odds are against Li Meiyu!" Li Yi Hua sighed.

"Let's not try to guess. I still think that Li Meiyu was taken away by the people from the Ru Yi Hall. We should immediately go ask them for her!" Nangong Feiyu said with a stubborn face.

"Foolish!" Li Yi gave Nangong Feiyu a white eye, "If you do this, won't you expose Li Meiyu? At the moment, the people of the Ru Yi Hall might not know that Li Meiyu was still alive, but do you want to take the initiative and tell them? "

Nangong Feiyu was stunned for a moment and could not help but let out a long sigh. He said, "That Miss Li is too pitiful. Now that she has been kidnapped, how much fear and sadness must be in her heart!"

"We might as well ask around in secret. If necessary, we can ask for help from the gang. I don't believe that there's a truth that we can't get from other people!" Xiao Hong Yu said.

"You can't!" Shu An interrupted Xiao Hong Yu, "From today's situation, you should be able to see that the Beggar Gang is on Jia Yun Lin's side right? If you go to the gang for help, wouldn't that mean you're telling Jia Youlan that Li Meiyu is still alive? "

"Could it be that Chief Jia cannot be trusted? Aren't we on his side today? " Xiao Hong Yu asked.

"Although he is trustworthy, he is the sworn enemy of the Fulfillment Hall. If he were to find out that Li Meiyu is still alive, then Lady Li would definitely be in a miserable state, because she would definitely become a tool for Jia Yilin to interrogate the Fulfillment Hall!" Shu An said.

"It looks like we can only rely on ourselves!" Nangong Feiyu bitterly sighed, "I don't believe that a living person can disappear without a reason!"

"What are your plans?" Xiao Hong Yu asked.

"Since I suspect that you're the one from the Fulfillment Hall, then we shall start by investigating!" Nangong Feiyu's face sank, "As long as we suspect it, we will expel them one by one. There will be a time when the truth will be revealed!"

"The solution is indeed a bit stupid, but there's nothing we can do about it!" Xiao Hong Yu smiled bitterly and said, "I'll go with you!"

"Alright! This way, we can take care of each other once we meet with danger! " Nangong Feiyu said.

"Remember, don't try to be brave!" Li Yi Hua said worriedly.

"Don't worry!" With me here, he won't have a chance! " Xiao Hong Yu looked at Nangong Feiyu and smiled.

Although Nangong Feiyu was not convinced, he knew that Li Suihua had good intentions, so he could not refute. He quickly brought Xiao Hong Yu out of the Mascot Inn and pretended to be strolling around with nothing to do, slowly making his way to Ming Yang Inn!

As for Prefect Zheng Qing, after he was released by Jia Yunlin, he immediately felt disgraced. He felt extremely indignant in his heart, and after accumulating all of his anger, he rode his horse into the famed inn. As soon as he saw Wu Xiudao, he scolded him, "Wu Xiudao, what kind of trick are you trying to pull in Yangzhou? These martial artists that you have attracted a good city are turning the sky upside down! "

Wu Weidao also had a stomach full of anger from today's incident, but he was a shrewd man who knew when to get angry and when to endure. Thus, he quickly put on a smile and said, "Lord Zheng, please calm your anger, it's all my fault!"

"It's good that you know this! "This official's face has fallen. Tell me, how much longer do you need?" Zheng Qing said angrily.

Wu Weidao smiled, took a glance at the living room and said softly, "Master Zheng, there are too many people around. Can I have a word with you?"

Zheng Qing heard this and was extremely reluctant. However, he knew that if he were to behave atrociously, it would definitely arouse criticism. So, he angrily dismounted and obediently followed Wu Weidao upstairs.

As soon as he entered the room, Wu Youdao closed the door himself and served the fragrant tea respectfully. He comforted Zhang Zian with a smile, "Master Zheng has brought troops here today to help. I am very grateful. To express my thanks, I have prepared a gift for you. I believe it has been sent to the manor!"

"Uh, is there such a thing?" Zheng Qing's expression immediately eased up. "Pavilion Master Wu's move is somewhat unexpected!"

"It's only right!" Wu Weidao gave a slight smile, "Even if we're not looking at the honor of our masters, for God's sake, we should at least look at it this way, right?"

"Pavilion Master Wu sure knows how to speak!" Zheng Qing laughed happily.

"Lord, you're too kind!" Wu Xiangdao pointed at his teacup. "Please have some tea, my lord!"

"Alright!" Zheng Qing took a sip of tea and then sighed softly. With a worried look on his face, he said, "Today's matter is not going to be easy!"

"Master, are you worrying about whether or not you should pursue the matter with Jia Yun Lin or not?" Wu Weidao asked with a smile.

"Pavilion Master Wu is truly understanding. This matter is indeed a headache!" Zheng Qing threw down the tea bowl in his hand, "If you want to punish them, you must have chased away the guest invited by Pavilion Master Wu. If you don't, then I will lose all face. How can I continue to be an official in Yangzhou?"

Wu Weidao smiled and said, "Sir, there is no need to worry. I have already thought about this for you."

"Oh? "A wise mind!" Zheng Qing's eyes couldn't help but to light up.

"There's a word for it, drill!" Wu Weidao smiled meaningfully, "Why didn't you use that word to describe yourself?"

Zheng Qing's eyes darted around as his mind suddenly opened up. He smiled and said, "Wonderful!" I will go back and post a notice to the citizens of the city, saying that in order to ensure the safe conduct of the beauty contest next month, I personally led a group of people to conduct a stability exercise, but unfortunately, I was met with failure. As a result, I have decided to strengthen the city's defenses, and strictly investigated the traveling merchants, in order to create a peaceful environment for the citizens of the city to not worry about! "

Sir is truly worthy of being an expert in the government. Just a little bit is enough!" Wu Weidao nodded with satisfaction. "This way, the shameful fact that our lord was kidnapped will be covered up. On the contrary, it will also create a good image of public security. This is a double advantage!

"The most important thing is that the government won't touch those martial artists, but they won't lose face. Otherwise, the people will definitely scold us, the officials, as we are all scarecrows and rice buckets. That would be hard to listen to!" Zheng Qing smiled.

"Master, you have a wise mind!" Wu Weidao laughed.

"As expected of Pavilion Master Wu!" Zheng Qing laughed happily. "In the future, I'll have to learn from Pavilion Master Wu!"

"Master, you've embarrassed me!" Wu Weidao laughed.

When Zheng Qing heard this, he took up his tea bowl and withdrew the smile on his face. Whether intentionally or not, he asked, "The Li Residence is shocking to the entire city. The way the murderer has killed is shocking. I wonder what Pavilion Master Wu thinks about this matter?"

"My lord, do you want to ask who the culprit is? Or do you want to know how I should deal with this matter?" Wu Weidao asked.

"As expected of Pavilion Master Wu, you truly understand everything!" Zheng Qing smiled, "This official has just arrived at Yangzhou and encountered such a huge case. If I don't solve this case quickly, not only will the citizens be anxious, I'm afraid even the imperial government will find it hard to explain this to them!"

"My lord, don't worry, I'll bring you the murderer right now!" As Wu Weidao said this, he clapped his hands and called out: "Old Liu San!"

As soon as he said that, there was a sound outside the room, and the door was pushed open. Third Elder Liu walked in tremblingly, and closed the door behind him. He knelt in front of Wu Xiudao and said, "Greetings, Hall Master. Greetings, Lord Zheng!"

"He's the murderer?" Zheng Qing glanced at Old Liu with a trace of disdain in his eyes. "You're not joking with me, right?"

"Although he is not the real culprit, but through him, we can find the real culprit!" Wu Weidao smiled faintly. "I'll hand him over to Lord Zheng. I believe he'll be able to seize the culprit soon!"

"Oh?" Zheng Qing looked at Liu Lao San again, "I'm asking you, do you know who killed him?"

"Reporting to Lord, the culprits are my two elder brothers, one is called Fatty Liu and the other is called Old Liu. As long as the Lord sends word, they will say that I rebelled against the Fulfillment Hall and was told that I participated in the Li Residence's burning and killing, and that I would be executed soon. After receiving the news, my two elder brothers will definitely come to save me." At that time, the Lord will set up an ambush and capture them in one fell swoop! " Old Liu said.

"This is indeed a brilliant plan!" Zheng Qing frowned slightly. "But what this official doesn't understand is that they are brothers with you. How could you bear to harm them?"

"Sir, they deserved to die. Even if they didn't die at the hands of Sir, they would have died at the hands of those martial artists. Rather than dying at the hands of the latter, it would be better for Sir!" "As for me, I only know how to swear my loyalty to the Fulfillment Hall; I don't dare to cripple my lord for personal reasons!"

When Zheng Qing heard this, he couldn't help but look at Wu Xiangdao with admiration as he praised: "Pavilion Master Wu, you've accepted a good disciple!"

Wu Weidao smiled and said, "Since Master has said so, I too have a presumptuous request to ask of you!" "After this is over, I hope that my lord can spare his life. This will be considered as breaking the record!

"No problem!" Zheng Qing gave a faint smile. "If such a good person were to die in the Law Palace, then it would be impossible for such a person to live!"

"Still not thanking the lord?" Wu Weidao looked at Old Liu and asked in a low voice.

"Thank you, master!" Third Elder Liu hurriedly kowtowed in thanks.

"Alright!" "Go to the government office and confess yourself. The lord will be here in a moment!" Wu Xiangdao instructed.

"Yes sir!" After Old Liu finished answering, he respectfully left the room.

"Lord, in this way, can you dispel the anger in my heart?" Wu Weidao asked with a smile.

"Hahahaha!" Zheng Qing couldn't help but laugh heartily. "I've long heard that Pavilion Master Wu is reasonable, but today I know that the rumors are true!" "Nice to meet you, Zheng!"

"My lord, you are praising me!" Wu Weidao smiled lightly and then muttered to himself, "I heard that the Li Residence is a case where no one lives. In other words, no one inherits Li Chunfu's vast fortune, I would like to ask Sir, if I have the contract written by Li Chunfu before my death, would I be able to fulfill it?"
