Governor Cao had heard that something had happened in front of Shen Huaixin's house, and he was laughing happily. Before he could laugh a few times, the Yamen servant came to report that the two women in front of the house started crying, and many people gathered to watch.

The smile on Governor Cao's face froze, and he gritted his teeth as he changed into his official uniform, cursing as he did so.

I really can't make him feel better for a moment!

After changing into his official uniform, he asked again: "Are the prince and princess here?"

"Return to my lord, not yet."

As soon as Governor Cao got off the chair, he sat back down and said, "Then wait a moment."

When Yan Ruyu left last night, there was something in her words. Governor Cao heard everything, but he didn't understand what it meant. Now that Yan Ruyu hasn't come yet, he doesn't dare to go out and talk rashly. What if it disrupts the plan?

Better wait.

Governor Cao drank tea slowly, feeling quite anxious.

After waiting for a while, the officer from outside came to report again: "Sir."

"The prince and princess have arrived?"

"No, Shen Huaixin has arrived."

Governor Cao frowned and said angrily: "He has very fast legs. If he doesn't deal with his family's affairs, why are he here? Really!"

"Sir, what should I do? He asked you to go out and talk."

Governor Cao doesn't want to go, but if he wants to do nothing and only want to rely on the prince and princess, I'm afraid it's wrong. If people see him as having no ability to make a difference, what if they ignore him?

Yes, you have to show something.

Thinking of this, he stopped drinking tea and hurried out, holding his head high and chest high as he walked, reminding himself that he must deal with it calmly and not lose his momentum.

When they arrived outside the mansion, they saw the two women crying at Shen Huaixin.

Shen Huaixin looked patient and listened carefully, not to mention being very kind.

Governor Cao gritted his teeth with hatred: Did you see it? This is a wolf in sheep's clothing! How good at pretending! It can fit better than any fucking sack!

Governor Cao raised his chin, straightened his chest, and stepped down the steps. He almost missed the step without paying attention. His fat body stumbled, and he couldn't help but take a few steps forward. He just happened to throw himself in front of Shen Huaixin and pushed him a meter away. How far.

Shen Huaixin: "..."

Governor Cao cleared his throat and said nonchalantly: "Envoy Shen Cheng came here early in the morning. What's the matter?"

Shen Huaixin was shocked by this, and the sadness that had just been brewing was washed away. Before he could open his mouth to speak, Governor Cao said again: "Oh, I heard that something happened in front of Shen Cheng's ambassador's house, and I want to send someone over to take a look. Look, why did the city envoy come?"

"Are they here to report the crime? Who are those people? I heard they are foreigners? Brown hair, brown eyes, and some have dark red beards. Tsk tsk, Ambassador Shen Cheng, you are guarding the border city, why do you let so many foreigners? Clan members sneaking in and causing trouble?"

"It's a pity that they died, but they deserved their death. If not, I will catch them and interrogate them to find out who they are and what they want to do when they come to us."

Shen Huaixin was so angry that his throat was clogged. It was the first time he saw Governor Cao being so arrogant.

Just as he was about to say that, Governor Cao lowered his voice and approached him: "I heard there is a kind of person."

Shen Huaixin's head tightened, looking at his nervous look, he subconsciously asked, "Who is that person?"

"A person who can jump to summon the soul, even if he dies, can still jump and bring the soul back. Ask the city envoy if you want to try it?"

Shen Huaixin: "..." I'll give you a try.

Shen Huaixin was so angry that his head hurt when he was interrupted like this.

When I woke up early this morning, my eyelids kept twitching. Before I left the house, someone came to report that something happened at the door, not counting the head, but the head of a foreigner.

His heart sank as soon as he heard this, and he hurriedly quietly went behind the door to watch. Seeing the appearance of those people clearly, all the luck in his heart was washed away.

It was the few people he supported.

Back then, he took in a total of sixteen foreign captives. All of these people had blood on their hands, and they would not be killed unjustly. But he had an idea at that time and gave these people a way to live, and they were willing to use them for him.

During these years, after secretly raising, training, and doing tasks, six of them were lost, and there are still ten left, including Surangtai and Dagger.

It's good now, the heads of the remaining eight are all hung here.

He almost vomited blood, but he didn't stick it out.

The man was dead, and there was no point in talking. He could only ruin his appearance and then make plans. While letting the archers take action, he thought, Dagur's matter here was more important.

He didn't care too much about Dagur's life or death. The key was that he was afraid that Dagur would say something he shouldn't.

Therefore, he did not care about the affairs of the government. Although he felt sorry for the hard work over the years and the difficulty of cultivating a killer, he could only temporarily let others hand in help to deal with Dagur's matter personally.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he came, Governor Cao would start yelling at him, making him angry again.

Things hadn't progressed yet, and without even mentioning the main topic, a carriage drove up and Huo Changhe and Yan Ruyu arrived.

When Governor Cao saw it, his eyes lit up, and the savior had arrived.

Shen Huaixin's eyes flashed with coldness, he forced a smile, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, your Majesty, what's the important thing?"

Before Huo Changhe could say anything, Governor Cao looked at the door and then at himself: "Envoy Shen Cheng, the prince is here to come to my yamen, not to you. What you are asking...haha."

Yan Ruyu suppressed her laughter, and Huo Changhe glanced at Shen Huaixin lightly: "I have an appointment with Governor Cao. Today we have an appointment to go to the mountains outside the city to find spiritual herbs. I didn't expect it to be so busy in front of the door."

Shen Huaixin was angry and confused: "Spiritual grass? What spiritual grass?"

Huo Changhe said in a serious tone: "The magic herb that cures the disease of lying tongue. Governor Cao said that he had an important prisoner who always lied because of his tongue disease. He cheated all day long. In order to cure his disease, I heard that there is a magical herb." Grass can cut out a person's tongue and replace it with spiritual grass. Whenever he lies, his face will turn green."

Yan Ruyu didn't know that Huo Changhe would say such a phrase. She wanted to laugh so hard, but she could only hold it in with all her strength, and her stomach hurt.

Governor Cao's eyes suddenly flashed, and for a moment he couldn't tell whether what Huo Changhe said was true or false.

His eyes were full of clear and stupid eyes, and he asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, can we really find this kind of grass?"

Huo Changhe: "..."

Yan Ruyu couldn't help it anymore, she cleared her throat to suppress her laughter, changed the subject and asked, "Sir, what is...what's going on here?"

Seeing that he was about to return to the topic, Shen Huaixin took over and said, "Didn't the prince hear about yesterday's brothel murder incident?"

Huo Changhe frowned: "Beauty? I have never heard of it, and I will not go to such a place. The Shen Cheng envoy is also a member of the army, so he probably won't go, right? Why are you interested in the brothel?" "

Shen Huaixin pursed his lips: "It's not that I am interested in the brothel, but that one of my lieutenants was killed there."

"Can city guards visit brothels?" Huo Changhe was surprised, "This is really an eye-opener for me."
