“In that case, I won’t stand on ceremony.”

In the martial world, one needed strength, but in the officialdom, one needed favors.

Those who entered the Heaven Inspectorate were considered half officials, and Song De was extremely proficient in this aspect.

The two of them chatted and soon arrived at the government office.

The government office of Purple Wood Mansion was much more luxurious than Yunlai Mansion. After all, the degree of prosperity here was much better than Yunlai Mansion.

When the two of them arrived at the Purple Wood Mansion, they saw a dignified middle-aged man standing at the door.

When the middle-aged man saw Xu Bairen, he stepped forward and cupped his hands. “Greetings, Lord Xu and Lord Song.”

Song De hurriedly introduced,” This is the Purple Wood Manor’s Manor Lord, the Zhou Manor Lord. The Purple Wood Manor’s current grandeur is all thanks to the Zhou Manor Lord.”

Xu Bai’s eyes lit up. He cupped his hands and said,”Greetings, Zhou Manor

Order.”

In Great Chu, civil officials were naturally highly valued. Many civil officials looked down on the Heaven Inspectorate, but there was always an exception.

Of course, it was hard to say whether the Zhou Manor Magistrate’s polite appearance was true on the surface or on the inside.

However, it was a matter of face. If you did it, I would do it. Of course, Xu Bai would do it too.

“Lord Song is too kind. Everything I have is a gift from His Majesty.”When the Zhou Manor Magistrate said the word “Your Majesty”, he even cupped his hands in the direction of the caDital. aooearinc verv resoectful.

“How about Lord Xu pick a room?”The Zhou Manor Master blinked.

To be honest, it was a little strange for a middle-aged man with an imposing appearance to do such a thing.

Xu Bai laughed and said, “Then I’ll have to trouble the Zhou Manor.””

He didn’t look like he was here to go to jail at all. He was afraid that people would believe him even if he said he was here for a vacation.

“This way please.” The Zhou Manor Lord raised his hand and led the way.

Xu Bai and Song De followed behind him. Soon, they arrived at a cell.

“This is what I have arranged for Lord Xu.”The Zhou Manor Lord pointed to a room and said.

Looking at the room, Xu Bai’s mouth twitched slightly.

All kinds of furniture were complete, and even the bed was covered with a brand new mattress. If it weren’t for the surrounding walls, it would really be an extremely complete bedroom.

The Zhou Manor Magistrate could tell what Xu Bai was thinking. He smiled and said, “Since Lord Xu and Lord Yun are close friends, you are naturally also my friend. Unfortunately, I did not know that Lord Xu had come to the Purple Wood Mansion. Otherwise, I would have treated you well.”

Xu Bai’s head was full of black lines.” So Lord Zhou and Brother Yun know each other.””

“More than just acquaintances. I only got my current position at this age,” the Zhou Manor said with a face full of shame.” However, Lord Yun is a genius. When we met in the capital, he helped me a lot. It was also at that time that we became friends.”

It was said that it was easy to do things with people in the court. As a person with connections, Xu Bai understood.

He walked into the cell and laid down on the chair. Xu Bai felt the softness and smiled. “Lord Zhou, you’ve really put in a lot of effort.”

“Of course. I still have some work to do, so I won’t disturb you.”‘

Anyone who could become a prefecture magistrate was perceptive. Naturally, they knew that Xu Bai did not come to the prison for no reason. Therefore, he found a reason to leave immediately to make space for these two.

“Good day, Lord Zhou.”

After waiting for the order from Zhou Manor to leave, Xu Bai looked at Song De and said, “Lord Song, I’m a bit faster.”

Although he didn’t say it explicitly, Song De understood what it meant.

“Lord Xu, don’t worry. I’ll investigate it right away.”Song De didn’t waste any time. After saying that, he left immediately.

Watching Song De’s back disappear, the smile on Xu Bai’s face gradually disappeared.

The person behind the scenes was really quick-witted. However, this place was no different from an inn. He could still control the progress bar in his hand.

Thinking of this, Xu Bai took out the Secret Technique of Manipulation and continued reading…

The room was bright, and the progress bar was slowly increasing.

He didn’t take Xu Bai’s imprisonment seriously, but the news had spread.

Jiqiao Pavilion, in a room filled with mechanisms.

“What?!” Pavilion Master Ji stood up abruptly and said,” You said Lord Xu is in prison!

“It’s said that he was taken away by the Heaven Inspectorate because of the recent murder.” Ji Xiaoshan said bitterly.”

“Don’t you have the evidence provided by my House of Mechanical Instinct?”Pavilion Master Ji was puzzled.

“Father, we only provided evidence from five families. The Miao Family indeed didn’t have any evidence, and it was Little Arrow who did it.”Ji Xiaoshan said.

Pavilion Master Ji fell into deep thought.

A moment later, Pavilion Master Ji raised his head and said,””Tell the lord from the Heaven Inspectorate that it was Ji Xiaojian who did it and that it has nothing to do with Jiqiao Pavilion.”

Ji Xiaoshan was slightly stunned, but he quickly reacted and understood what his father meant.””Father, you mean to put Little Arrow in jail as well?”

Pavilion Master Ji nodded and said,” That’s right. Since Little Arrow has betrayed us, let’s get him out of here. He’s from that side. We can observe the movements of that side.”

“However, if the other party does not care…” Ji Xiaoshan hesitated.

“If we don’t care, it means that the other party has given up on this chess piece.”Pavilion Master Ji said slowly,” Although we’ve managed to get close to Lord Xu, we can’t sit still and wait for death. We must help Lord Xu complete this trick. If the other party doesn’t give up on Ji Xiaojian, then…” The opportunity Lord Xu wanted is here.”

Ji Xiaoshan understood and nodded his head in agreement. Then, he thought of something and said, “There was another family that was wiped out, saying that

Lord Xu was the one who did it..”
