There is a house in Xicheng, which occupies the largest area here.

Qi Ye was behind Ye Gucheng, and beside him was Shangguan Feiyan who had been sticking to him all the way.

According to what she said, what she wanted to help her just now was to recover the lost wealth of Jin Pengguo.Through the inquiry just now, I learned that the wealth was robbed by a strange person.

"Do you know Huo Xiu?" Qi Ye was playing with the folding fan when Lu Xiaofeng suddenly said something.

"A rich and eccentric old man." Qi Ye approached Ye Gucheng and responded.

Shangguan Feiyan kept accosting herself along the way, and his tone of reply was cold and heartless, but she didn't mind, and insisted on walking side by side with her.

"What did you ask him for? Could it be that he suspected that this person stole the treasure?" Shangguan Feiyan blinked her eyes with a puzzled look on her face.

"I've heard of this person before, the world's richest man, and he has another name." Lu Xiaofeng stroked his delicate beard, and continued: "Shangguanmu."

He said he had heard about it, but in fact he specially investigated it with Hua Manlou.After all, the palace was stolen, and Huo Xiu, a man who loves money like his life, suddenly hid and didn't go out. It's hard for people not to suspect him.However, it didn't take long for them to find out about Jin Jiuling's head, and only then did Huo Xiu be whitewashed in this matter.

"So you suspect that he has something to do with this matter?" Qi Ye put away his folding fan, looked at Lu Xiaofeng, and asked.

"That's right." Lu Xiaofeng took a few steps forward, reached out and knocked on the door.

It was a little book boy who opened the door. After he saw the appearance of the knocker, the book boy's eyes flickered with horror.

Seeing Lu Xiaofeng's confident expression, Qi Ye smiled a little.

Lu Xiaofeng's ability is indeed very good, if he has no evidence, he will not doubt others easily.Right now, it doesn't take long for this matter to break through.Even if he and Ye Gucheng don't help, Lu Xiaofeng alone can do it.

"We're here to find Huo Xiu, can you call us?" Lu Xiaofeng lowered his head and asked.

"Who's here?" Just as Lu Xiaofeng finished speaking, a deeper voice came over.

Huo Xiu asked as he walked out of the house. As soon as he reached the yard, he saw four people standing outside the door.

"What brought the two of you here?" Huo Xiu turned his hands away and continued with a smile, "But since you're here, come and have a seat."

Qi Ye followed Ye Gucheng into the house, and saw Huo Xiu looking at him from time to time.

"Mr. Huo has been staring at me, but what do you want to say?" Qi Ye paused and asked.

"You look strange, I'm just curious which family you are from." Huo Xiu shrugged.

There was a smile in Qi Ye's eyes.

How could he fail to see the color in Huo Xiu's eyes.But since Huo Xiu still wanted to save face, and since this was his territory, he didn't care about it.

"I belong to the owner of the city." Qi Ye answered casually.

"Don't be kidding, I've lived for so long, and I haven't heard of it..." Before Huo Xiu could finish speaking, Ye Gucheng opened his mouth.

"He really belongs to me." Ye Gucheng didn't have any expression on his face.

Huo Xiu's power is not small, if he entangles Qi Ye, it may hinder his great affairs.There is no need to waste time and energy on irrelevant people.

When Huo Xiu heard this, he smiled indifferently.Although there was nothing on his face, he was already full of anger.

Although Ye Gucheng looks very good, he doesn't believe that this man will fall in love with a man.The reason why he said that the beauty on the side belonged to his family was just to suppress himself.

"I heard a few days ago that a person from Jinpeng Kingdom wanted to embezzle wealth and secretly sent people to get rid of the descendants of the Jinpeng Dynasty." Qi Ye frowned slightly, as if thinking about something.

When Huo Xiu and Shangguan Feiyan heard this, their faces froze.

The two of them were the only ones who knew about it, and when they looked at each other, there was some suspicion in their expressions.

"Then do you know who this person is?" Huo Xiu took a deep breath, clasped his hands, and asked.

Qi Ye shook his head, glanced at Lu Xiaofeng, and said, "I only heard that the man is called Shangguanmu, but I don't know what he looks like."

Huo Xiu's body tensed instantly, but he relaxed a lot when he realized that not many people knew his original name.But since these four people have come, there must be some who can't go back alive.

But because Lu Xiaofeng mentioned that Shangguan Mu and Huo Xiu were the same person before coming, Shangguan Feiyan's face became gloomy.Seeing Huo Xiu's indifferent expression, Shangguan Feiyan felt that she shouldn't have trusted this stupid old man back then.

"It just so happens that it's time for dinner, how about sitting down and chatting together?" Huo Xiu made a "please" gesture and continued: "I'm also curious, who can rob so much wealth, will who is it."

Three jugs of fine wine, four dishes of meat dishes, and two dishes of vegetarian dishes.

"I think that person must be tall and big, otherwise how could he remove so many things by himself." Huo Xiu said with a smile after pouring wine for Qi Ye and others.

"Maybe he is an old man, so he will avoid a lot of eyes and ears." Qi Ye's hand, which was originally on his knee, just wanted to lift it up, but was held down by Ye Gucheng who was sitting beside him.

On the other side, Huo Xiu also pinned Shangguan Feiyan's wrist, but no one noticed.

After Qi Ye was held down, the first thought in his mind was that Huo Xiu had drugged the meal.

"Why don't you guys eat? Is it because the food is not well prepared?" Huo Xiu asked when he saw that no one picked up his chopsticks.

When Lu Xiaofeng heard this, he picked up the wine and took a sip.

"Look, I just ate, so I'm not hungry. Let's drink enough." After finishing speaking, Lu Xiaofeng took another sip of wine.

Seeing Huo Xiu looking at him, Qi Ye thought for a while, then picked up the bowl with his other hand.

But before the wine was drunk, Ye Gucheng stuffed a pill into his hand.

"Does Miss Feiyan know how to drink?" After taking a sip, Qi Ye raised his other hand, seemingly to wipe the traces of alcohol on his mouth, but in fact he took the pill.

After lowering his hand, Ye Gucheng grabbed his wrist again.But he didn't think much about it, he just felt that the city lord was worried about something bad happening to him.

As soon as Shangguan Feiyan heard Qi Ye speak to her, her face flushed.

"Yes." In the same way, she took Huo Xiusi's pills.

Halfway through drinking, Lu Xiaofeng passed out in a daze.Seeing this, Qi Ye fell down together with Ye Gucheng.During the period, I did not forget to move towards Ye Gucheng.

"What kind of medicine did you take?" Shangguan Feiyan got up, ran his fingers across Qi Ye's back, and asked.

"..."

When Shangguan Feiyan put his hand on his back, Qi Ye broke into a cold sweat all his life.He was worried that he would not be able to stand Shangguan Feiyan's casual touch for a while, and would be too irritated to pretend.

"Sweat medicine." As Huo Xiu said, he wanted to reach out and pull Qi Ye's clothes.

Ye Gucheng, who was face to face with Qi Ye, noticed it, and couldn't help tightening his hand holding Qi Ye.

"What are you doing?" Seeing Huo Xiu about to attack, Shangguan Feiyan asked in surprise.

"Didn't the city lord just say that this person belongs to him? Then I think one of the invitations must be on him." But the other purpose is that such a beauty, who is stunned by sweat medicine, does nothing, isn't it? loss.

If he guessed right, the three of them must know something.That being the case, when I am done with my time, I will deal with Lu Xiaofeng and Shangguan Feiyan.In the end, the beauty was locked up and Ye Gucheng was let go.
