"We are also very sad to hear this news. People cannot be resurrected after death. My condolences to Mr. Xia!" Liu Wei'an said.
"Before my grandfather died, he was still thinking about not being able to meet Governor Liu." Xia Huaifang said.
"I'm so flattered. I dare to ask how the Grand Duke left and what happened?" Liu Wei'an knew that it was inappropriate to ask such a question at this time, but he also knew that if he didn't ask now, he might not have many opportunities to be alone with Xia Huaifang later. .
"Grandpa was killed by someone!" Xia Huaifang hesitated and said in a low voice: "I hope Governor Liu will not spread the word that there is a thief in the "Duke's Mansion"."
"How could this be so?" Liu Wei'an was shocked. He couldn't tell whether this was true or not, but one thing was certain. There was a big problem within "Duke's Mansion". Otherwise, Xia En would have returned at this time. He received him, but at this moment, Xia En was nowhere to be seen.
"It's hard to describe 1" Anger and regret flashed in Xia Huaifang's eyes, with a complicated expression.
"My condolences!" Standing at the gate was really not a good place to talk. Someone came from behind. Liu Wei'an had a problem, so he could only swallow it and follow the procession into the mourning hall.
A huge coffin was placed in the center of the mourning hall. There were white coffins on all sides, candles were beating, and the air was filled with the strong smell of incense. The direct descendants of the Xia family knelt on both sides, and a young man who had never seen them held his arms. The portrait of the Grand Duke said words of thanks to everyone who offered incense.
"Thanks!"
"thank you all!"
"grateful!"
…
Seemingly polite, but actually not sincere, Liu Wei'an lit the incense candle and looked at the large and unusual coffin. He wondered whether it was empty. The great Duke died like this? Is it too hasty?
The deceased was the oldest, so Liu Wei'an did not make any small moves. He respectfully paid homage and then went to the relatives' place: "My condolences! You must take care of your health. The Grand Duke is aware of it and does not want you to be overly sad."
"Thank you, thank you Governor Liu!" The polite words were dry, but Liu Wei'an didn't pay attention, said a few more useless words, and left.
"Duke's Palace" arranged food and lodging for the condolences guests. Liu Wei'an and others

No one refused, and the staff stayed in the hotel. Apart from anything else, the accommodation conditions in the "Duke's Palace" were quite good, at the seven-star level.
"When I was a kid, my dream was to live in a hotel every day and sleep in a big bed room!" You Mengshou said.
"You're not short of this money, are you?" the necromancer asked strangely. Others looked at him with the same expression. You Mengshou's mercenary group is also famous in the south. Fame means more work. If you have more work, you will have more money. If you have money, can you still not afford to stay in a hotel?
"I can't bear to part with you. This idiot's status is too low." You Mengshou said, and everyone suddenly realized. The country has been calling everyone equal, but in fact, inequality is everywhere in life. To buy a movie ticket, civilians need to queue up honestly, but nobles can jump in line, and the ticket price is discounted, and they stay in hotels, five-star hotels or above. , ordinary people are not qualified to live there, but if they really want to live there, there are ways. The price varies with different hotels, but it is basically more than double.
"This world is so interesting." Yang Wujiang said, he wanted to live there before but couldn't afford it, but now it's no longer rare to live casually.
"Everyone, take a rest and go out for some activities in the evening." Liu Wei'an said.
"Yes!" Everyone went back to their rooms, and Huang Yueyue followed into Liu Wei'an's room.
"Can't you sleep alone?" Liu Wei'an threw himself on the bed. The three-meter-long bed had snow-white bedding, soft and warm, as if his lover's hands were gently caressing him.
"I vaguely remember grandpa saying that the Grand Duke is a very scary person." Huang Yueyue sat beside the bed.
"It's impossible for a person who can cultivate a great general not to be terrifying." Liu Wei'an said.
"I don't think the Grand Duke will die that easily!" Huang Yueyue said.
"You mean the coffin is empty, or is it someone else?" Liu Wei'an opened his eyes and looked at her. Huang Yueyue rarely cared about such things.
"I don't know, but I always feel like something is wrong." Huang Yueyue said.
"Can you tell me more specifically?" Liu Wei'an asked.
"I can't tell!" Huang Yueyue was troubled.
"Recall carefully, what else did your grandfather say to the Grand Duke?" Liu Wei'an asked
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
.
"No, in my impression, grandpa only mentioned the name of the Grand Duke once, and only said, 'He is a very extraordinary person'! But I remember grandpa's expression, very solemn and fearful. I have never seen grandpa look like this. His expression was very impressive." Huang Yueyue said.
"What your grandpa said must make sense." Liu Wei'an patted his shoulder, "Come on, take a nap. You've been tired from running around all day, are you tired?"
"I'm not sleepy!" Huang Yueyue said she was not sleepy, but she had already taken off her shoes and socks and lay down.
"Weird!" Dongfang Qingyu hugged the soft and delicate body, "Other people have grown muscles after eating Warcraft meat. Those who have no muscles are also solid and hard. Why are you still so thin? This is not good. Others Think I abused you."
"Wouldn't it be better to lose some weight?" Huang Yueyue's face slowly turned rosy. Liu Wei'an's hands were too dishonest and he got into places he shouldn't have touched...
When night falls, the temperature drops by dozens of degrees compared to the daytime. At such a low temperature, no one wants to go out unless necessary. When the weather is cold, even peeing will freeze into popsicles. Liu Wei'an and his party avoided the cameras and quietly left the hotel where they were staying. Instead of taking a straight path, they made a circle and came to the "Duke's Palace".
"Disperse!" Liu Wei'an gave the order, and everyone dispersed in an instant, disappearing into the night. Liu Wei'an's mission on this trip was not only to explore the Duke's Palace, but also the surrounding areas. He had a clear understanding of all the situations, so that he would not suffer any losses in a fight.
"Duke's Mansion" is the most dangerous place, Liu Wei'an went there personally.
There are no blind spots in the dense cameras, and neither a fly nor a mosquito can get in. The way to alert the snake is to cut off the route and then enter. Liu Wei'an is not the only one to use such low-level methods. Anyone with a little experience knows what's going on. , the runes on his left hand lit up, and the ancient and mysterious aura was reviving.
"Soul-Calling Talisman!"
The world froze for a moment, and in the flash of lightning, Liu Wei'an flashed past and appeared in a courtyard of the "Duke's Mansion". There were many trees in the courtyard, which provided him with excellent cover.
During the daytime memorial ceremony, Liu Wei'an had already figured out the general topography of the Duke's Palace. Liu Wei'an found the direction and went straight to the mourning hall.
