Are you stupid? I am the villain behind the scenes

Song Guwei's search for Qi Ce went extremely smoothly.

The Song family guards went door to door asking, and in less than half a day, they actually got some useful clues.

Some people claimed to have seen someone who looked like Qi Ce.

When the guard asked, the man told the truth.

Not long ago, he did see someone who looked very similar to Qi Ce.

As he spoke, he gestured with his hands to indicate the man's height and appearance.

However, since he always thought Qi Ce was dead, he did not confirm it at that time.

However, he was still cautious and noticed that it was the people from Xuan Palace who captured the man who looked like Qi Ce.

When Song Guwei got the news, he immediately had people surround the Xuan Palace and go in to search.

The people of Xuan Palace naturally refused to let the Song family guards search at will. The two sides were deadlocked, and finally the guards could only report to Song Guwei.

When Song Guwei received the news, he rushed to the scene in person.

His face was gloomy and there was a hint of anger in his eyes.

They rebelled and challenged his authority as the patriarch.

This is true for Qi Ce, Qu Xingshu, and Fu Weizhen!

Following Song Guwei to Xuan Palace were Li Qingchi and Qi Man, who had heard the news and rushed over.

It was understandable that Qi Man came here, after all, Qi Ce was a member of the Qi family, but Li Qingchi...

"Qingchi, go back. We don't need you here."

Song Guwei wanted to drive Li Qingchi away because he suspected that Li Qingchi might be the one who instructed Qu Xingshu to help Qi Ce fake his death.

The last time when dealing with Qi Ce's affairs, Li Qingchi advocated saving Qi Ce's life.

Song Guwei was not aware of the friendship between Qu Xingshu and Qi Ce. He always believed that Qu Xingshu did not have the courage to do this and that someone must have been behind the scenes instructing him to do so.

Li Qingchi refused to leave and asked, "Why didn't you tell us that Qi Ce was not dead?"

Song Guwei snorted twice and said disdainfully: "Tell you? Who knows if there is anyone among you who is protecting Qi Ce? I dare not believe you."

Qi Man disagreed: "Who would protect Qi Ce? Are you overthinking it?"

Song Guwei snorted at Li Qingchi, but his words were directed to Qi Man: "Just because you can't do it doesn't mean others can't do it."

Li Qingchi: “…”

"not me."

He wished Qi Ce would die.

Song Guwei hummed again, and it was unclear whether he believed it or not.

Qi Man stopped dwelling on this question and turned to ask the guard of Xuan Palace: "Where is Master Xuan? He is not in Xuan Palace?"

With the three clan leaders here, Fu Weizheng should have come out to receive them, but no one has appeared yet.

Song Guwei also said, "Yes! Where is Fu Weizhen? Ask him to hand over Qi Ce immediately!"

The Xuan Palace guard replied respectfully: "In reply to the two clan leaders, the Xuan Lord is indeed not in the Xuan Palace, but he has heard about the situation and is on his way back. He will be here soon."

Ji Xianchen did go out.

Since the host was not there, the three of them had to wait patiently in the lobby while the servants served them tea.

Li Qingchi calmed down and thought carefully. He felt that something was wrong. He stared at Song Guwei and asked, "Where did you hear that Qi Ce is not dead?"

Song Guwei picked up the teacup, put it to his nose and sniffed it, then put it down again. After hearing Li Qingchi's question, he said impatiently, "Why do you care how I know that?"

Qi Man said at the side: "Gu Wei, please speak properly. Qing Chi just wants to understand the situation."

When Song Guwei turned to Qi Man, his expression improved a little, but he only said: "I have my own information channels, which have nothing to do with you."

Li Qingchi frowned.

At this time, Ji Xianchen rushed back.

Before he could open his mouth, Song Guwei jumped up from his seat impatiently and asked him angrily, "Fu Weizhen, what are you thinking of hiding Qi Ce?"
