Lin Quan listened and nodded slightly, showing his agreement. With a smile, he said, "Indeed, this plan is quite clever! If this scheme can be successfully implemented and achieve its goals, then in the future, should I desire to advance in rank or enjoy wealth and glory, it would merely require me to speak a few words."
"Therefore, I entrust this important matter entirely to you. I hope you will do your utmost and ensure that there are no mistakes!"
Upon hearing this, Ke Bai and Kei Hei hurriedly bowed and clasped their fists in salute, responding in unison, "Your Highness need not worry; we will spare no effort and will do our best to accomplish this task. We will not disappoint your expectations!"
After they spoke, Lin Quan nodded in satisfaction, raised his hand with a gentle wave, signaling them to promptly attend to the relevant matters.
Thus, the two quickly turned and left the room, beginning to prepare for the subsequent actions with great urgency.
At that moment, within the residence of Lin Feng, he found himself unable to go to the Yamen for work. For Lin Feng, this was not necessarily a bad thing; after all, having some leisure time at home to rest was also a good option.
Just then, Xia Qingyu noticed Lin Feng's return and couldn't help but ask with a hint of confusion, "Husband, why have you returned home so early today?"
Lin Feng frowned slightly and replied softly, "My dear wife, you may not know this, but there have been some changes at the Yamen, so I no longer need to report for duty."
Upon hearing this, a look of concern instantly appeared on Xia Qingyu's face as she hurriedly asked, "What exactly happened?"
Seeing the worry etched on Xia Qingyu's features warmed Lin Feng's heart. He slowly reached out and gently patted her shoulder, reassuring her, "Do not be overly anxious; let me explain everything slowly."
Then Lin Feng proceeded to clarify the entire situation to Xia Qingyu.
After listening to Lin Feng's account, Xia Qingyu was left speechless in astonishment, murmuring to herself, "How could such an extraordinary event occur?"
Lin Feng comforted her further: "Rest assured, my dear. Although this matter is somewhat tricky, I believe it can ultimately be resolved properly. Moreover, since there is no need for court attendance in the coming days, we can take this opportunity to rest at home for a few days."
Xia Qingyu nodded lightly in agreement: "In that case, husband should take it easy at home for a few days."
Meanwhile, sunlight poured down onto the ancient streets, illuminating the cobblestone path. Zhang Ting was hurrying along with quick steps alongside an officer from the Southern Inspection Office towards the crime scene.
Throughout their journey, both remained silent; however, their serious expressions revealed the gravity of the situation.
Finally, they arrived at what had once been a bustling fabric shop. Now before them lay only charred remains and ashes; the vibrant scenes of yesteryear had vanished without a trace.
Zhang Ting widened his eyes in disbelief as he gazed upon the tragic sight before him. A strong sense of mission surged within him.
"Quick! Search thoroughly! Leave no corner unchecked; we must find any useful evidence or clues!"
Zhang Ting issued his orders without hesitation, and his subordinates immediately sprang into action, flooding into the ruins.
As time ticked away, the entire afternoon quietly slipped by amidst the tense search. However, despite everyone's best efforts, they were unable to uncover any valuable clues.
Zhang Ting furrowed his brow, lost in thought. Could it be that this fire was truly so mysterious? Given that they had found nothing at the scene, Zhang Ting decided to change his strategy.
