“An open plot?” Yun Zihai frowned when he heard this. He did not understand what Xu Bai was planning.
“Sneaking in and coming back secretly, when the other party already knows the inside story, you can only see what the other party wants you to see.”Xu Bai pointed at the corpse on the ground and said,””lf the Ye family really has connections, he would have been prepared when you caught him.”
“If we go over brazenly, the other party will be on guard.”Yun Zihai pondered.
Xu Bai walked in front of Yun Zihai and patted his shoulder. His tone was teasing. “Who are you?”
Yun Zihai was stunned. He did not understand what he meant by saying such words at this time.
However, he saw that Xu Bai’s words had a hidden meaning, so he said that he was Yun Zihai.
“Wrong!” Xu Bai raised his index finger and waved his hand.””You’re the magistrate of Yunlai Mansion. You’re the one who has the final say in Yunlai Mansion. You can investigate however you want. Even if you go to his women’s house for a night, they won’t dare to say anything because you’re the one in charge here.”
Yun Zihai was speechless.
Hearing this, he seemed to understand what Xu Bai meant.
He was the magistrate of Yunlai Mansion, and the entire Yunlai Mansion had to listen to his orders.
It was obvious that he was going to investigate the case now. If the Ye family dared to stop him, they could be punished according to law.
“Wonderful, Brother Xu.” Yun Zihai expressed that Xu Bai’s idea was not bad. Xu Bai held down the impatient Chu Yu and said,”Let’s set off now.”
It was an opportunity that could not be missed. If it was lost, it would not come again. He had to seize the time to avoid any more problems.
Since the other party had already made a move, not only did they have to receive it, but they also had to think of a way to return it and give the other party a big fight.
The two of them discussed for a while more before rushing straight to the Ye family.
There was a new lord in Yun Nan Manor, and he was taking over Yunlai Manor in the form of autonomy. Not only did it spread widely among the Jianghu people, but even the common people knew about it.
Since Xu Bai said that he wanted to go over openly, Yun Zihai did not hide his identity. The two of them swaggered toward the Ye family, causing the surrounding pedestrians to turn their heads and look at them.
Earlier, Yun Zihai said that the Ye family was not far from the government office. The few of them only walked for a few minutes before they arrived at the Ye family’s main gate.
Xu Bai stood at the door and looked up and down. As expected of a family that made a fortune from war.
Just the two stone lions at the entrance alone were the work of a master in terms of craftsmanship. The cost must have been quite high.
At the door stood two servants on duty.
Xu Bai and Yun Zihai swaggered over with a cowering Chu Yu following behind them. Of course, they were particularly eye-catching.
Originally, Yun Zihai wanted to call Liu Er back, but Xu Bai stopped him. After all, it was not good to expose too many people. He would let Liu Er hide in the dark.
When the two servants saw Xu Bai and the others approach, they looked at each other. One of the servants walked out and cupped his hands at Yun Zihai.”Greetings, Lord Yun. May I know why Lord Yun has come to the Ye family?”
After all, he was the head of a prefecture, a dignified prefecture commander. The servants naturally knew him.
However, what puzzled the servant was why the lord of Yunlai Mansion would suddenly visit the Ye family. It was a little strange.
“I’m here to investigate a case, so there’s no need to report anything. Just open the door.”Yun Zihai placed his hands behind his back, raised his head, and puffed out his chest, looking very authoritative.
For a large family like this, if someone came to visit, they needed to report it.
The servant would return to the residence and look for the person in charge of the family. If he knew the person, he would bring the person in. If he did not know the person, he would not let the person in.
When he heard Yun Zihai say that he was here to investigate a case, the servant took a step back with a surprised expression on his face. At the same time, he turned to look at his companion, not knowing how to deal with this.
The Ye Family was a very low-key family in Yunlai Mansion. Although they were a wealthy family, they were not arrogant and despotic. Now that someone wanted to investigate the case, and it was the Lord Prefect of Yunlai Mansion, they were at a loss.
This was also the first time they had encountered such a situation where they could not make up their minds.
“Is the prefecture commander or the Ye family bigger?” Xu Bai asked.
The servant nodded without hesitation.”
This was very obvious. In Yunlai Prefecture, who else could be more powerful than the prefecture token? If one really wanted to say that the prefecture token was powerful, it was probably because he had lived for too long and had no hope in life. He wanted to be buried in the ground from now on.
“Then why are you still talking nonsense? Hurry up and open the door.”Xu Bai said.
After this reminder, the servant shivered. He knew that he had been in a daze just now and had indeed not figured out the primary and secondary relationship.
The servant did not dare to dawdle any longer. He turned around and pushed open the door in front of him. He bent down and lowered his head, indicating that he had no intention of resisting.
The other servant also did the same thing, without any intention of disobeying.
When the door opened, there was a front yard inside. It looked extremely vast.
This area would probably cost a lot of money. When they were in the county, Xu Bai’s bodyguard agency was not as big as this courtyard.
The threshold of the door was also unusually high, almost reaching one’s knees. If one wanted to cross it, it would take time and effort. Although it was just a small threshold, there were many doors inside..
