Lie Yi panted heavily for a long distance before stopping. He hid into an alley with his back against the icy cold stone wall, pressing between his eyebrows. Even now, he was still a little dazed.

Just now, the person he saw was indeed Xing Yi.

Liefeng was very uneasy.

He had to complete the mission first. The safety of his companions had become a secondary issue.

But could it really be secondary? How could he sit still when he saw Xing Yi being captured and his helpless and miserable appearance?

As the Witch clan had declined, there were not many people left. Who among the current Witch clan would not be able to move forward hand in hand?

The Witch Clan thanked the King of Quan for his kindness and served him. They, the Witch Clan, were loyal to him and now that their brother, who they grew up with, had become like this, they could not help but be anxious.

Thinking to this, Lie Yi took a deep breath and decided to go to the yamen.

The mission was important, but if he had to use Xing Yi's life to exchange for it, he would rather destroy the mission.

But he could not watch Xing Yi die without doing anything. He was his brother, his clan, and his kin.

After making up his mind, Lie Yi walked out from the alleyway. Looking at the crowded streets, he didn't head straight for the yamen. Instead, he walked into a clothing shop.

When he came out of the clothing store, Righteous had already changed into a new outfit.

Two hours later, in the Huang Residence.

The person below nodded his head, "I am not bringing back the corpse. The lord from the yamen said that our master's identity is precious and that he is not an ordinary person. To say that Madam had suddenly lost her husband is to say that she was utterly exhausted. To say that I wanted you to see the old master's corpse is also good.

"Exhausted?" Huang Ru picked a piece of orange and stuffed it into her mouth, chewing as she said: "Hmm, I am indeed exhausted. Master left just like that, leaving behind an orphan like me, what kind of work are you going to do in the future?"

Huang Ru spat out the orange seed in her mouth, threw it to the side, peeled another orange, and ate it again.

The people below were drenched in cold sweat. Looking at Madam's state, they felt that they had been wrong to ask such a question.

When the news of the old master's death reached her ears yesterday, the lady who was originally feeling unwell had regained her wits after staring blankly for a while!

Not only did he look better, but even his face was rosy after waking up today. His complexion was even better than if he had eaten ten cups of bird's nest.

Some of the servants even said that Madam was forcefully holding on until the light faded.

He said that the Master and his wife were very affectionate and that the Lady couldn't bear children and that the Master would rather adopt an abandoned baby than have a concubine steal from him. How much respect did he have for the Lady?!

Now that the old master had suddenly disappeared, the Madam must have suffered a huge blow to her. The more indifferent she seemed, the more bitter she felt in her heart.

This was something that many people agreed with.

However, there were many, not all of them.

For example, the people close to Madam Ye's home could all see that she was no longer a widow. Just look at his high-spirited appearance, it was clearly more joyous than the New Year.

He reckoned that if it wasn't really inappropriate, his wife would probably have set off firecrackers to celebrate!

Huang Ru did indeed want to set off firecrackers.

Initially, he was worried that he wouldn't be able to handle the elder's actions and return to uphold justice. Unexpectedly, with the blessing of the heavens, Huang Jue Yang actually died just like that!

Looking at the submissive and submissive servants, Huang Ru could not help but feel happy in her heart.

These people weren't fools. In the past, they had all regarded Huang Wen Yang as the leader of the group and treated him as the true Huang Clan Master with all sorts of harsh treatment.

The situation had changed for the better. Now that Huang Ziyang was gone, these people without a backer were all quick-witted.

Huang Ru enjoyed the feeling of being respected by many people, she tossed Tangerine, who had not finished eating, to the side and wiped her hands with a handkerchief. Then, she said, "Forget it, as you're from the yamen, you must meet me no matter what. Lead the way."

The kneeling servant quickly stood up and personally led his wife to the outer courtyard.

Huang Ru walked slowly.

By the time they arrived at the outer court, about half an hour had already passed.

The person waiting in the lobby was a yamen runner. When he saw Huang Ru come out, he was slightly surprised. When he saw who it was, he snapped out of his daze and bowed, "Greetings, Madam Huang."

Huang Ru smiled and said politely, "Sir, there is no need to stand on ceremony. Take a seat."

The bailiff sat down again, and Huang Ru sat down at the head of the table.

Huang Ru's body shone brightly, and her face was painted with alluring red makeup. Her dress was red and alluring, without a single hint of a single pick to be seen.

No matter how he looked at it, it looked like a happy occasion had occurred at home.

The bailiff thought to himself, 'Could it be that this Madame Huang doesn't know that her master has passed away?'

Could it be that all the servants in the mansion were afraid that Madam Huang would be too upset and hide it from her? If that was the case, it wouldn't be good for him to say anything.

While the bailiff was at a loss as to how to open his mouth, Huang Ru took the initiative to ask: "Is Sir here for the sake of your late husband?"

The bailiff was surprised for a moment before replying, "Yes."

The bailiff thought to himself, so it turns out that Madam Huang knew that Old Master Huang had left. Why did she dress up like that?

Huang Ru laughed: "This little girl is just a girl, and my child is still young. For such an important matter like the corpse, this little girl really doesn't dare to deal with it in private. I heard that the case is not over yet, if not, my Old Master's corpse will be left at the yamen, waiting to be dealt with at the yamen."

The bailiff was stunned for a moment. "Madame does not wish to see Old Master Huang for the last time?"

Huang Ru covered her mouth and lightly shook her head: "Why are you grieving for me? I'm sure that if Old Master was still here, he would definitely not want me to have any more worries."

I've never heard such a thing.

The bailiff then asked, "What about Young Master Lin? Since father suddenly left, I believe young master is also grieving over it. If I don't look at my father's corpse, then wouldn't that be … "

"My son is still young. Don't disturb my son's eyes with these things."

His father had died, and it had become an eyesore?

Was this Madam Huang really as the world said? She was as married as Master Huang said? Why do you look at it? It doesn't look like it at all.

Finally, the bailiff asked, "Madam, are you not planning to follow me to the yamen?"

Huang Ru replied, "Didn't I say it earlier? This little girl absolutely believes that the yamen authorities will only cause trouble. Otherwise, just stay in the mansion and wait patiently for the murderer to return."

The bailiff frowned, feeling that if he were to marry such a wife, he would jump out of the coffin even if he were to die.

"Master Huang's head was cut off by the murderer, and we found it afterwards. Originally, we wanted to put his head and body back in place, but an adult from Beijing forcefully took that head away, saying that it had even become a skull and cut off his face and ears. So, madam, you mean that it doesn't matter?"

"Skull?" Huang Ru laughed: "Even your ears and nose were cut?"

When the bailiff saw the smile on Madam Huang's face, he could not help but nod with great difficulty, "I will cut it all."

Huang Ru covered her face to hide the smile that was about to appear on her face and coughed on purpose to stabilize her expression. Finally, she said with understanding: "The actions that Master Li has taken must be in order to find the culprit as soon as possible. No matter what, as long as we can find the culprit, we will be able to take apart my master's corpse and cook it. This little girl has no objections, this person's death is like a lamp being extinguished, come and go, it's just a stinky skin, there's no need to take it to heart. "

The bailiff wiped off his cold sweat, thinking that he should leave now. He saw that Madam Huang had suddenly stood up and hurriedly said, "Please wait sir. This little girl has something to attend to and will be back soon."

As he spoke, he left the main hall.

Huang Ru did not let the servants follow, she looked at the red cloth strips hanging on the locust tree outside the hall, lifted her skirt and quickly walked towards the backyard.

Along the way, the servants greeted them frequently. Huang Ru only waved at them, indicating that they should walk further away. They were not allowed to follow, but their footsteps did not stop for even a moment.

Huang Ru left for at least an hour while the bailiff sat in the main hall. He wanted to leave, but he did not bid farewell to his master.

When Huang Ru returned, the bailiff's face was already extremely ugly.

Just as the bailiff was about to get up and leave, Huang Ru said: "Just now, I met my son outside the yamen. When my son heard that he was going to the yamen to see his father, he cried his heart out. He had always been close to his father, and as his mother, I also don't want him to not see his father's corpse, so please lead the way, and bring us to the yamen."

The bailiff looked like he was being teased!

The bailiff looked at Huang Ru weirdly, thinking to himself, "The one who refused to go no matter what was you, and now you're the one who insisted on going no matter what. Is it fun to tease the court officials?"

Huang Ru was smart and took out a silver ingot from her sleeve and stuffed it in.

After weighing the silver, the cold expression on the bailiff's face disappeared. He said with a full mouth, "Since that's the case, please, Madam."

Huang Ru nodded and said to her underling: "Bring the Young Master over."

The servant left.

Not long later, he brought over a slightly pale, cold, and detached boy.

Holding the child's icy cold hand, Huang Ru said: "Mother will bring you to see your father right now. When you see your father later, you need to say a few more words to let your father know that you are safe and sound."

Huang Lin silently nodded his head, but there was no warmth in his pitch-black eyes.

Huang Ru did not care about his mood, she just held his icy hands and walked out of the mansion.

From the Huang Residence to the yamen, not much time had passed.

Along the way, Huang Lin didn't say a word. Huang Ru was also doing her own thing in the car. The mother and son duo looked like strangers, as if they were strangers.

When they arrived at the yamen, they alighted from the carriage and Huang Ru extended her hand to lead Huang Lin away.

Huang Lin was also obediently being held by Huang Ru, following beside her.

Before the two of them got close to the yamen's main entrance, they heard sounds of argument coming from outside the door. Huang Ru raised her gaze and immediately saw a familiar figure.
