After the villain was defeated, she still had power in the government

Fu Yutang's expression froze for a moment, and he remained silent for a few moments before he said, "You mean he... is dead?"

No wonder Zhao Ye was so defensive when he saw her, but instead became very close to Wang Dagui and even trusted him inexplicably. Was it because he and Wang Dagui were both ghosts?

Wang Dagui sighed heavily when he saw that she had reacted, and said slowly: "At that time, I thought he was a wandering soul like me, and was worried that our true identity would scare you, sir, so I didn't dare to tell you that he was a ghost. But when I saw you give him the buns, sir, I knew that you were a kind-hearted person who couldn't bear to see the sufferings of the world, so I took the initiative to tell him your identity, thinking that if he had nowhere to go, he could come to you, at least there was a shelter. But..."

After a pause, Wang Dagui sighed and said, "He never came back. I guess he entered the reincarnation cycle."

Hearing this, Fu Yutang sat in his seat and remained silent for a long time.

Wang Dagui didn't know what to say, so he could only accompany her quietly, sighing and regretting in his heart.

Who could have thought that the child was not a beggar, but a poor man who was abducted by a kidnapper and subsequently died.

If he had known earlier, he should have found an excuse and told the adults that he was his grandson or great-grandson or something and brought him back to the Fu Mansion directly.

Apart from anything else, at least we can learn the whereabouts of the kidnapper from the child, so that the adults can catch him in one fell swoop and prevent him from harming others again.

Fu Yutang was suddenly confused when he learned that Zhao Ye was no longer alive.

Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she lowered her eyes. Her long eyelashes gently covered her cheeks, casting a shadow and blurring her expression.

To say I'm not angry would be a lie.

But what's the point of being angry? The person is gone.

What she needs to do now is to seize the time and find the other abducted children who are still alive.

Thinking of this, Fu Yutang closed his eyes, took a few deep breaths, quickly adjusted his mood, slowly opened his eyes and said: "Although Zhao Ye is gone, there are still many children missing. We still have to go to the market near the east of the city."

After he finished speaking, he stood up and was about to leave.

"Wait..." Wang Dagui stopped Fu Yutang from getting up and whispered, "I have something important to report to you, sir."

"What's the matter?" Fu Yutang asked.

"When I came back, I met someone at the door." Wang Dagui glanced outside. Even though there was no one outside, he lowered his voice so that only the two of them could hear, "The wife of Annan Marquis - Xin Huarong. I heard her call Xiaoqing Miss Qingrong, and Xiaoqing Miss called her Miss."

This proves that Xiaoqing is indeed Qingrong without a doubt.

Fu Yutang was not surprised by this.

"Did they see you?"

"No." Wang Dagui smiled and said, "As soon as I saw a carriage parked at the gate of our mansion, I knew that a distinguished guest had arrived. I thought it was the traitor Shi Yi, so I hid and observed secretly."

Who would have thought that Shi Yi didn't wait for her, but waited for Shen Huarong instead.

However, no matter who the visitor was, Xiaoqing's identity was eventually confirmed, which was a common conclusion.

Fu Yutang nodded slightly. He originally wanted to tell him about the situation in the Prince of Xiang's Mansion, but considering that the two of them still had to go to the east of the city to inquire about the news, if they did, the two of them would get together and whisper, which would take a lot of time.

After thinking about it, he decided to put it aside for now and talk about it when he came back in the evening. He said, "Let's ignore these things for now. Let's do the business first and talk about it in detail when we come back later."
