"Whoosh..."
The stars are arrayed, the night is bright and deep, and the lone lamp on the rocky point is still dark. Li'an Mansion was shining brightly under the night, with row upon row of houses dotted like stars. Two figures shuttled between the buildings, and they finally stopped at a pavilion near the south city gate.
"The Ye family's caravan?"
A clear voice sounded, and a girl with red eyes was seen standing on the tiled roof of the pavilion. She looked at the brightly lit city gate in the distance with a look of surprise.
"They can't wait."
Mr. Qinggui beside her said with a smile.
"This is how the same thing?"
Lin Zhuoyue looked at Wei Buqi beside her. Her eyes were full of doubts, while his eyes showed a smile.
"I told you that I deliberately let the demon cult demons exile me and Miss Ling'er to the wilderness that day, in order to trick them into thinking that I was not active in the city."
He stared at the south gate of Li'an Mansion in front of him. A group of inspectors stopped the convoy. This was of course his own fault.
"How do you know that the Demon Sect is going to use the Ye family's caravan to transport things to the city?"
She still didn't understand.
"Thanks to Miss Ling'er for this."
Wei Buqi showed a gentle smile and said unhurriedly.
"She told me that King Kang never lived in Prince Kang's Mansion in the city, but lived in a villa on the outskirts of the city. Xu Yuanwang was hooking up with Tai Ningbo, and I found out that the trade route of the Ye family caravan must pass through Chishi, where King Kang lived. Villa, hence today’s arrangement.”
"But..." Lin Zhuoyue was stunned at first, and then frowned and said, "This does not mean that there is something wrong with the Ye family's caravan."
He shook his head and said seriously.
"It's better to kill by mistake than to let go. I can't let them have the slightest chance to send unknown threats into Li'an Mansion. If the people suffer, I will bear the blame."
She stared into his clear eyes. Was he really a lofty ideal for the common people in the world?
"What are we going to do?"
Lin Zhuoyue turned her head and looked at the crowds of figures at the city gate.
"wait……"
Before Wei Buqi finished speaking, the two of them looked at the official road connecting the city gate in front of them. A luxurious carriage pulled by two flame-colored horses appeared in their eyes, and the carriage went straight to the city gate.
"This is Xu Yuanwang's car." She whispered, "He will find us standing here."
He remained calm when a gray mist suddenly enveloped them, and a gray cat was held in his arms.
"It doesn't matter."
Lin Zhuoyue looked at the cat in his arms in surprise, and recognized that it was the remnant soul of the great supernatural power he had captured in Tainingbo Mansion. At that time, she also participated in his plan. Isn't this soul very ferocious? Why is it so obedient like a kitten now?
"You go on."
she said.
"Mrs. Lin will do as I say in a moment..."
…
Under the tower.
A group of people wearing white crane uniforms stopped in front of the city gate.
The pearl staffs they held in their hands illuminated the city wall incandescently.
"May I ask your surname?" Ye Li carefully approached the leading inspector in front of him, "I..."
"Back off."
The law enforcer didn't say much to him. He waved to his colleagues behind him, and the group was about to search the caravan.
"tread……"
The sound of surging horse hooves suddenly came, and everyone under the city wall looked back, their expressions changing.
"Envoy Xu is here."
An inspector whispered. His eyes did not show the respect that met Shangfeng, but instead he frowned.
Ye Li looked at the approaching car frame, breathed a sigh of relief, and put his heart back in his stomach.
In the blink of an eye, the carriage on the road arrived in front of them, and everyone bowed and saluted.
"See Lord Patroller."
A tall and handsome man in black and white robes stepped out of the carriage.
"What are you doing?"
Xu Yuanwang spoke. He did not look at Ye Li, but asked questions to the inspectors.
"I don't remember that there are night patrol arrangements tonight."
His tone was quite friendly, as if he was just passing by and came over to ask casually.
"Inspector Li, please tell me."
The leading inspector who was pointed out by him took a step forward.
"We are inspecting the four city gates at night under the order of the Inspector General Zuo."
Xu Yuanwang's expression remained unchanged, and a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes. Don't think that he is the patrol angel in charge of the patrol prison, but this is the Li'an Mansion of the Wei family, and he has to look at people's faces when doing things.
The local patrol inspector has a patrol angel, and under him are the left and right inspectors. The left inspector here is from the Wei Party.
If he hadn't known that the Wei thief had been banished thousands of miles away by his uncle Xie, he would have suspected what had happened.
"I see."
Xu Yuanwang nodded and turned to look at the city gate guard aside.
"Have you inspected this caravan?"
The soldiers guarding the city couldn't understand what he meant. He was obviously here to save the Ye family caravan.
"If you get back to the envoy, we will have checked everything."
Xu Yuanwang agreed and turned to the inspectors beside him.
"You don't need to spend too much time here. I've heard from someone that there are thieves walking at night in the north of the city. Please go and investigate quickly."
Ye Li was relieved after hearing his words, and then felt a little scared. The patrolling angel personally rescued him in the middle of the night. What exactly was he transporting?
"This..." the leading inspector surnamed Li said hesitantly, "It's just a one-night bandit, we can split up."
"how?"
Xu Yuanwang's face darkened.
"You won't listen to what I say?"
He looked solemn and authentic.
"Are you going to disobey me?"
Xu Shangshi held his breath in his heart. He was a patrolling angel who could compete with the local magistrate's yamen, but he still had to be bullied in Li'an Mansion.
At this time, he thought of the Second Young Master of Wei again. What happened on the Yin Cui Painted Boat that day made him resentful to this day. He had never suffered such injustice in his life!
How shameful and humiliating is it to pay someone to send your beloved woman to your enemy's bed?
"I dare not..."
Inspector Li gritted his teeth and said.
"Why don't you take people to Beicheng to search for the gangsters?"
Xu Yuanwang snorted coldly, Wei Er was not in Li'an Mansion, and it was he who had the final say in the Tianxian Prison.
"Xu Shangshi has such great official authority~"
The coldness on his face solidified due to the chuckle coming from behind him.
'impossible! '
Xu Yuanwang's face showed shock, his eyes showed the fear of failure, and finally he breathed out a sigh of relief.
"Junior Brother Wei, why are you here?"
A surprised smile appeared on his face, he turned his head to look, and stepped towards the visitor.
"Ah……"
A stern man in a white robe walked into everyone's eyes. He had clear features and a slender figure. He was holding a gray cat in his hand, like a traveling prince.
"Senior Brother Xu, are you okay? I haven't thanked you for your kindness that day."
Wei Buqi smiled and took some time to caress the Gray Fairy in his arms. The smile on Xu Yuanwang's face gradually disappeared, and he guessed what Wei Thief wanted to say.
"What's the big deal——"
Xu Shangshi forced a smile and spoke, and the Second Young Master Wei shook his head with an afterthought on his face, murderous and heart-wrenching.
"Miss Ling'er, very moist."
