Chapter 1030

"That wouldn't be good, would it?"

"If this gets out, it might cause trouble for the Lord."

Wu Guang shook his head, looking somewhat dissatisfied. "I, Wu Guang, have followed the Lord for some time now. Do I look like that kind of brainless bandit leader?"

"We can act as the parents of the child who was ghost-married and bluff him. If the truth comes out, then we two are the Lord's subordinates, using this extreme measure to solve the case. But if we don't get an answer, then we are just the parents of the ghost-married child."

Zhao Da couldn't help but gasp after hearing this. "You are so twisted."

"I like it."

That night.

Wu Guang and Zhao Da climbed over the Li family's wall, beat up the guards, and fought their way to tea merchant Li's room, putting a large blade to his neck...

"..."

The Governor's Office.

Even though it was late at night.

Gao Yang was not asleep. He sat in the courtyard, looking at the stars in the sky, his fingers tapping on the table rhythmically.

Chen Sheng hurried forward and said to Gao Yang, "My Lord, Governor Meng changed his clothes and went to the orphanage late at night. He hasn't come out yet..."

Gao Yang's gaze was cold, but he was not surprised at all.

"And according to my inquiries, in the past ten years, many displaced people have filed complaints against this Liu Dashan, but all have ended in failure. Furthermore, several agitated displaced people were subjected to brutal torture and thrown out of the government office; it is rumored they were beaten to death, and their bodies were thrown into the mass grave."

Chen Sheng said in a low voice, a chill in his eyes.

Hearing this, Gao Yang said slowly, "You can know a person's face, but not their heart. This hidden face of Meng Ziyi is truly unexpected."

"No wonder the orphanage has stood for decades without falling; it turns out these two were colluding!"

Beside him, Lu Luo trembled all over.

She hadn't expected that Meng Ziyi, who was humble and fearful in front of Gao Yang, had such a face in secret.

That was a Governor of a region!

Her heart suffered a huge shock!

Chen Sheng looked at Gao Yang and asked, "My Lord, should we keep watching Governor Meng?"

Gao Yang shook his head.

"No need."

"If I'm not mistaken, by tomorrow morning at the latest, this Liu Dashan will take the initiative to come find me."

Once these words were spoken.

Lu Luo and Chen Sheng were immediately surprised.

Especially Lu Luo, who said with worry, "Young Master, why would Liu Dashan take the initiative to come find you?"

"Wouldn't they want to fight to the death and harm you? But now that Lord Shangguan has left the city and hasn't returned, what should we do?"

Chen Sheng also looked solemn and worried.

Hearing Lu Luo's words, Gao Yang couldn't help but smile.

He looked at Lu Luo and said, "Lu Luo, do you know what the consequences would be if I died here in Suiyang City?"

Lu Luo was stunned and didn't speak.

Gao Yang said indifferently, "Even setting aside my status, just as an Imperial Envoy, if I were to die on an investigative mission, the entire Suiyang Jun would face a purge."

"The orphanage would be investigated to the very end, and investigating this matter is not difficult; it just takes a little time."

"Not to mention that there are other armies from various places in Suiyang City right now. Liu Dashan wants to fight to the death? Even if all the fish die, the net won't break."

Gao Yang's voice carried a hint of mockery. ===== CHAPTER 1032 =====
