The person who begged for mercy for Yan Xu was a tall and thin man.

He was well-featured and looked calm, speaking straightforwardly, which made him appear to be stiff.

With Yan Xu, a big guy in front of him, this man looked more inconspicuous.

In the beginning, even Mo Junyang didn’t notice him.

However, as the man begged for mercy smartly and spoke unhurriedly, Mo Junyang knew that this was not an ordinary man.

Mo Junyang thought for a while but didn’t show anything on his face. He just asked indifferently, “Who are you?”

The man cupped his hands respectfully and greeted, “My Lord, my name is Xiao Qijun, a private adviser of the magistrate.”

“A private adviser?” Mo Junyang repeated Xiao Qijun’s official position but didn’t say more. Then he retreated to stand behind Mo Junzhan silently and continued to be invisible.

Nevertheless, his momentum was too powerful. Under his reproach, Yan Xu shrank like a coward and almost cried to call his parents.

Even though Mo Junyang stopped talking, Yan Xu didn’t dare to gasp. He peeped at the masters from time to time and waited for instructions while trembling.

Those soldiers working for him didn’t dare to move a bit.

For a moment, the courtyard fell into weird silence.

Mo Junyang and his people didn’t speak, so none of the people from the government of Jiangzhou dared to move.

Mo Junzhan waited a moment but nobody spoke, so he scratched his head in surprise and looked at Shi Qingxue, asking silently, “Qingxue, what should we do now?”

Why was it silent suddenly? What should he do?

Shi Qingxue waited a while. Seeing that Mo Junyang didn’t plan to say more, she had to take the job to “interpret”. “Fine. His Excellency is tired after a long journey. Lord Yan, since you came to welcome him in person, you must have arranged for him, right?”

Yan Xu heard that Mo Junyang planned to let him go, so he was overjoyed and answered in a hurry, “Of course, I have arranged for him earlier. Although my mansion is shabby, not as good as the mansions in the capital, you can stay there. Please don’t dislike it, Your Excellency.”

Mo Junzhan didn’t want to stay in the magistrate’s mansion. He would be surrounded by servants and have no freedom.

However, Shi Qingxue had agreed for him, so he had to follow Yan Xu and go to his mansion.

When they prepared to walk out, with a creak, the door of the guest room in the courtyard was pushed open.

A young girl supported the door and walked out with a pink coat wrapped around her shoulders.

She was pale and looked as if she was weak and confused after she recovered from a serious illness, but her brows looked stubborn, and it seemed that she wouldn’t give up until she achieved her goal.

Ye Zhixin struggled to get up after she woke up from a coma, and her courage was admirable.

However, she woke up at the wrong time. All people looked at her, and she became a target for all at once.

Shi Qingxue specially looked at Yan Xu several times. This magistrate in Jiangzhou was able to control himself. He just glanced at Ye Zhixin and then lowered his head.

Meanwhile, the soldiers working for the government under the command of Yan Xu were not so restrained obviously. All of them looked at Ye Zhixin excitedly, like evil wolves staring at their prey, afraid that others didn’t know that this girl was their target.

Fortunately, they were sensible and didn’t beat Ye Zhixin stupidly when the imperial envoy was present.

They lived in peace for a moment.

Shi Qingxue glanced at Wei Ziye, and the latter instantly walked to Ye Zhixin, pushing her into the guest room without demur.

Since she was a good bait, they should hide her first.

Then Yan Xu invited the imperial envoy and the others to the mansion.

Mo Junzhan had his carriage, so he refused to get into Yan Xu’s carriage and insisted on asking Shi Qingxue to go with him.

Mo Junyang didn’t say anything but followed them and got into the first carriage.

“Qingxue, why should we stay in that magistrate’s mansion?” As soon as Mo Junzhan got into the carriage, he asked with displeasure.

He asked Shi Qingxue, as if Mo Junyang who made this decision were invisible.

Shi Qingxue was speechless.

The two men almost had no contact earlier, and compared with the other princes, Mo Junzhan had never offended Mo Junyang.

Why did they ignore each other while sitting together, as if there were deep hatred between them?

“You…” Shi Qingxue asked tentatively, but obviously, the two men didn’t plan to explain.

She sighed helplessly and answered Mo Junzhan’s last question. “We came to Jiangzhou City in order to investigate what happened here. If we don’t go into the lion’s den, how can we find what the main officials plan to do?”

They tried to kill them regardless of anything.

Shi Qingxue was more curious about the secret hidden behind Ye Zhixin.

Mo Junzhan didn’t have an interest in thinking about something unimportant but snorted unhappily. “You are right, yet what does it have to do with you telling me to disguise as him?”

His identity was obvious. Even if he wasn’t the imperial envoy, would Yan Xu dare to neglect him?

Why would he disguise as Mo Junyang?

“It has nothing to do with that. If you think that you can’t be a good imperial envoy, let’s tell Yan Xu after we reach his mansion,” Mo Junyang responded slowly and looked emotionless.

It just aroused Mo Junzhan’s emulation.

Mo Junzhan almost jumped up. He goggled at Mo Junyang and said furiously, “Who said that? I will do a good job and let you see.”

Shi Qingxue was speechless.

This provocation was too obvious, but Mo Junzhan fell into the trap.

The simple-minded Mo Junzhan had never expected that Mo Junyang made this arrangement because he wanted somebody to distract the attention to him, and then he could map out a strategy in secret.

Meanwhile, Shi Qingxue had complex feelings as she saw that Mo Junzhan was “fooled”.

On the one hand, Mo Junzhan was her good friend, and it was not her style to stand by and watch her friend being bullied; on the other hand, Mo Junyang did that in order to find out the dirty tricks in Jiangzhou City, and she couldn’t expose the other party considering the public and private interests.

Shi Qingxue couldn’t say anything but had to comfort Mo Junzhan for Mo Junyang and teach him what he should and shouldn’t do in front of Yan Xu.

After all, most of the time, Mo Junzhan liked to go against Mo Junyang no matter whether it was right or wrong.

The carriage reached the magistrate’s mansion and the three decided their identity for now. Mo Junzhan would disguise as the imperial envoy, King Rui’s heir from the capital far away, while Mo Junyang was an assistant inquiring about in advance for him.

Yan Xu arranged rooms for all of them, which occupied a big single house in the backyard of the magistrate’s mansion.

Magistrate Yan invited them in and wanted to flatter them to make up for his fault.

Unexpectedly, Mo Junzhan didn’t have the patience to deal with the way of the world. Moreover, he was used to being arrogant as if he were second to God, so he didn’t accept Yan Xu’s flattery.

As soon as he reached his temporary residence, he told the guests to go away without demur. “I…”

“Ahem!” Shi Qingxue coughed loudly and interrupted Mo Junzhan.

Mo Junzhan realized that he was King Rui’s heir. “You don’t need to hold a banquet to welcome me. I am tired now and want to have a rest. Lord Yan, please go back.”

Magistrate Yan prepared many words but had to hold back. He couldn’t say anything, so his old face was livid.

However, since “King Rui’s heir” said that, even though Yan Xu cursed in secret that this imperial envoy was too conceited, he had to answer respectfully on the surface, “Your Excellency, please have a rest. After you sleep, let’s talk about the banquet to welcome you.”

Mo Junzhan waved his hand to drive them away and didn’t want to say anything unnecessary to Yan Xu.

Yan Xu bowed and left, returning to his house.

As soon as he entered, the leader Tian Ping who led the workers to capture them in the small house was waiting for him in the room.

After seeing Yan Xu, Tian Ping immediately knelt down and greeted, “My Lord, nice to see you.”

Yan Xu snorted and cursed loudly, “You are a bunch of bums. I spent so much money in providing for you and made you so fat. I just told you to do something for me, but look, what have you done?”

Facing Yan Xu’s flames of fury like storm, Tian Ping couldn’t help but argue in a low voice, “I really sent some people to investigate in the clinic and Beipo Town, and the tall and big man must be the imperial envoy. I thought that you fear this man so much, so if I killed him, wouldn’t I remove the hidden trouble in your heart?”

“Did you remove it?” Yan Xu asked in reply coldly.

Tian Ping was speechless for a moment. Then he said with a grievance, “I almost made it, yet somebody came during the period and helped them out of a predicament.”

“Fine. You have messed it up. Don’t say anything useless. Tian Ping, you brought trouble on yourself this time.”

“I didn’t do a good job. Please punish me, My Lord.” Tian Ping admitted his fault more quickly than anybody else.

Yan Xu didn’t plan to comfort him but sighed in depression. “King Rui’s heir is so scheming. All people thought that he would disguise as a civilian and enter the city secretly, while nobody expected that he would act in contravention and walk in openly.

“Moreover, he controlled the time so well and caught all of us. He is really…”

Not to mention anything else, if the imperial envoy sued him for what happened today, Yan Xu would suffer a lot.

Yan Xu had been an official for decades smoothly, but now he suddenly faced an unprecedented crisis, so he was in panic.

Tian Ping was confused while listening to Yan Xu’s murmur and asked softly, “My Lord, do you think it’s possible that we are fooled now?”

Yan Xu paused for a moment and looked at Tian Ping. “What do you mean?”

“The imperial envoy did enter the city sneakily, and he is the big and tall man we have spied on, but in order to fool us, he intentionally told a servant to disguise as him, so he can distract our intention?” Tian Ping spoke out his conjecture hesitantly.

He didn’t know that he told the truth unconsciously.

However, as soon as he finished his words, he was restless. Would the magistrate approve of his words?
