Only Fu Yutang, Wang Dagui and Gan Daping were left in the reception room.

Wang Dagui carefully checked the surroundings and confirmed that there was no one around. Then he returned to Fu Yutang and asked, "Daping, what happened in the mansion?"

Gan Daping concealed nothing and recounted the story of the men in black in detail.

Finally, he said, "According to my observation, the black-clothed man's martial arts style came from Ximing. When Lord Rui learned about it, he said that this matter might be of great importance and he couldn't make up his mind, so he asked me to come here to report to you and ask you to make the decision."

Fu Yutang listened patiently, frowned and asked, "Is anyone injured in the mansion?"

I thought Fu Yutang would ask for clues about the man in black, but I didn't expect that her first concern was for everyone's safety.

Facing Fu Yutang's worried gaze, Gan Daping felt warm in his heart. He shook his head, with an unconscious smile on his face, and patted his chest and said, "No. With me here, how could they get hurt? Apart from being a little frightened, everyone is fine."

"That's good."

Fu Yutang's expression relaxed a little, and then he asked for details about the man in black.

When Fu Yutang heard Gan Daping say that the man in black had repeatedly confirmed Rui Chengyin's identity before committing the crime, he said, "So, the man in black didn't know me before today?"

"That's right." Gan Daping replied.

Fu Yutang tapped his knee with his index finger, looked up at him and said, "Since he doesn't know him, then where does he get so much hatred from, chasing Rui Chengyin all the way, as if he was determined to drag him into hell?"

"This……"

After being reminded by Fu Yutang, Gan Daping also found something wrong. He tried hard to recall the scene at that time and said hesitantly: "I don't know if I am too suspicious... I always feel that although the other party is aggressive, they don't really want to kill you, but are testing you..."

"Testing?"

Fu Yutang and Wang Dagui were both stunned and looked at him in confusion.

"The man in black mistook Lord Rui for you. He had many opportunities to kill Lord Rui, but he didn't."

Gan Daping was talking while gesturing, trying his best to make the two martial arts idiots in front of him understand the situation at that time. "At that time, he slapped Ah San away with one palm, and he was less than nine feet (3 meters) away from Lord Rui. Under normal circumstances, this is the best distance for killing. If the man in black wanted to kill Lord Rui, there would be no need for any extra movements. He could just raise the knife and chop at Lord Rui's neck. But he didn't do that. He chose to get close to Lord Rui first, and then raised the steel knife..."

This is obviously not in line with the habits of martial artists.

Not to mention, the other party is an experienced warrior.

"Is he trying to force Rui Chengyin to fight back?" Fu Yutang asked doubtfully.

Gan Daping nodded solemnly and replied, "It seems so."

Fu Yutang nodded slightly and asked Gan Daping for some details. After learning that the other party was injured, a hint of interest flashed in his peach blossom eyes.

After a moment, he took off his badge and handed it to Gan Daping, and ordered in a deep voice: "Daping, take my badge to Jingzhao Prefecture and tell them that there is an assassin trying to kill an official of the imperial court. Ask Yu Jiashan to impose martial law in the entire city. At the same time, spread the word that no one is allowed to leave the city in the next few days."

"Yes."

Gan Daping took the badge with both hands and left in a hurry.

Fu Yutang sat in his seat, closed his eyes slightly, and went over Gan Daping's words in his mind. After a moment, he opened his eyes again, stood up and walked out without saying a word.

Seeing this, Wang Dagui hurriedly followed and asked, "Sir, where are you going?"

"fishing."
