"Humph, no matter how many people come, I will make sure they never return," Liang Jilin snorted, "I've killed Liu Zheng, so I don't even care about these little minions."

"Your Excellency is mighty, but Your Excellency, do I still want to continue dealing with that person?" Yuan Chu said.

"Don't go for now. That person won't be going there for the time being. You stay in the city first and send people to inquire around. First, check the identity of this woman. If you can't find out, just kill her for me," Liang Jilin said coldly.

"Yes, sir. I will do it right away," Yuan Chu accepted the order and left.

Liang Jilin looked at Yuan Chu's back and snorted coldly. No one knew that Yuan Chu was actually his man. It seemed that the secret lines he had buried were still very useful.

Liu Yunyan didn't feel at all that she was being targeted, nor did she impulsively go directly to find the prefect Liang Jilin. No matter how powerful she was, she couldn't fight a hundred people alone like Wuqi and the others. The most taboo thing at a time like this was to act impulsively.

Liu Yunyan was brought here secretly by Lin Yuxuan, the son of the Duke of Huguo. Yuan Chu was unable to find out for a while, so he could only return to the prefectural government office and discuss it with Liang Jilin again.

Liang Jilin pondered for a while, "Do you still remember what that woman looked like? Go find an artist and have him draw a picture of her for me, and have someone search the whole city for her."

"Your Excellency is wise. I will do it right away."

Liu Yunyan had a good sleep. When she opened the window of the inn, she saw several soldiers pasting portraits not far away.

I stretched lazily without caring. I had a nap and was indeed a little hungry. As soon as I pushed the door, I was pushed back.

"Who is it?" The speed was so fast that Liu Yunyan didn't even see clearly who pushed her.

"Shh," someone tried to cover his mouth, but was knocked down by Liu Yunyan.

He looked at the person carefully. "Oh, you are an acquaintance. If I remember correctly, you are that evil man Mo Beisheng, right? You and that sterile guy also appeared together at the Queen's birthday banquet."

Mo Beisheng quickly got up from the ground, "It's really you, Princess Pingyang. People in the capital are saying that you are dead. I didn't expect that you are actually guarding the city."

"What do you mean?" Liu Yunyan grasped the key words in his words, "How do you know where I am?"

Mo Beisheng fanned himself out of habit, then he remembered that his fan was gone, so he could only awkwardly fan himself a few times with his hands.

"Don't you know? Your portrait is posted everywhere in the garrison city. I guess you won't be here for much longer," Mo Beisheng accidentally saw the soldiers posting wanted portraits and discovered that the person on it was Liu Yunyan, who was rumored to have been dead for a year. He then asked spies to find out Liu Yunyan's whereabouts.

"Wanted for me? I don't seem to have done anything wrong?" Liu Yunyan said speechlessly.

"The garrison governor will issue a warrant for the arrest of any outsiders and extort money from them. You didn't pay protection fees when you entered the city, did you?" Mo Beisheng speculated, shaking his head.

"How should I know this?" This garrison governor is really damned, "But they are well-informed."

Mo Beisheng said: "The garrison governor Liang Jilin hired a lot of lackeys in the city to keep an eye on places with a lot of traffic in the city every day. Whenever there are outsiders, someone will immediately notify the governor."

Liu Yunyan crossed her arms, "You seem to know a lot about this garrison city. You know exactly what the prefect does. Aren't you from Dongling? Why are you still in Tianyuan? What about your inseparable boyfriend?"

"Ahem... ahem..." Mo Beisheng was choked by Liu Yunyan's words, and then he said, "What boyfriend? Don't talk nonsense. We are just ordinary colleagues."

"The reason why he stayed in Tianyuan was because he wanted to find out the truth about Princess Yunxi's assassination. We found out that Princess Yunxi was related to the former Prime Minister Liu, and Prime Minister Liu was assassinated in Shucheng, so we came to Shucheng. Unexpectedly, as soon as we arrived in Shucheng, we were targeted by the prefect's people. On the way to investigate, we were ambushed. There were too many people on the other side, so Gong and I separated and fled."

Since knowing that Liu Yunyan is Princess Yunxi's daughter, Mo Beisheng and Gong Jueyu have been looking for her. After knowing that she was in trouble, Gong Jueyu was sad for a long time.

"However, if Mr. Gong knew that you were still alive and well, he would be so happy that he would fly with joy," Mo Beisheng said everything to Liu Yunyan without reservation.

"Do you trust me so much? Aren't you afraid that I will leak out the things you want to investigate and your whereabouts?" Liu Yunyan tested her.

Mo Beisheng shook his head. “You are Master Yunxi’s daughter. Gong and I both trust you.”

It turns out that mother’s appeal is so great?

Liu Yunyan thought to herself, "It seems that Liang Jilin is probably involved in both my mother's and my father's affairs."

Mo Beisheng nodded, "However, Liang Jilin would not dare to be so arrogant if he is only a prefect. Even if the emperor is far away from the city, it is a big deal if a high-ranking official of the court gets into trouble here. There must be someone in the court of your Tianyuan country who is behind this."

"Yes, this person's rank must not be too low." Liu Zheng's death had benefited only a few people, so it seemed that a thorough investigation was needed.

Mo Beisheng was a little worried. "It's just that the current situation is not very clear. Liang Jilin is watching too closely, so our secret investigation is inevitably restricted."

The two were discussing what to do next in the room when suddenly there was a noise outside.

Mo Beisheng immediately went to the door and opened it a little, just in time to see the shop assistant reporting to the soldiers downstairs.

"Sir, I saw it clearly. The criminal you want to arrest lives in a room on the second floor of the inn. I definitely did not recognize the wrong person."

"You..." the officer pointed at the man, "lead the way."

"Yes, yes, I will lead the way for you right away."

Mo Beisheng turned around, met Liu Yunyan's eyes, and nodded.

When the officers and soldiers pushed the door open, the room was empty. The little leader kicked his waiter down in frustration.

"Where are you? If you are not a human, then you are right here. Are you kidding me?"

The waiter knelt on the ground and hugged the leader's legs, saying, "My lord, I was not mistaken. It was that woman who stayed at the inn yesterday. I was very curious why she was wearing a veil. My lord, you are very observant."

The little leader kicked the man away and said, "Since you have seen him, then follow him and look for him together. Come back when you find him."

"Don't worry, sir. I will definitely help you find the person." The clerk now regretted very much why he was greedy for the reward money and went to report the crime. Not only did he not find the person, but he also got himself into trouble and might even lose his life at any time.
