The butler took a deep breath, and his tense heart immediately relaxed.

He glanced at Han Feng with a complicated expression.

He then turned around and began searching the room.

"A drug? Something's definitely wrong!"

Hearing the butler's mutterings, Han Feng's heart skipped a beat.

"If I'm not mistaken."

"The butler's excessive use of sleeping pills directly led to the death of the original owner, who was already weak."

"And then, I traveled through time!"

Han Feng had a vague guess in his heart.

"But what exactly is this person looking for?"

He was puzzled.

At this time.

The butler, who was rummaging through things, suddenly exclaimed softly, "Found it!"

I saw.

The butler took a key from the robes that the original owner had placed on the clothes rack.

After receiving the key, the butler hurriedly walked out of the room.

"This is... the study key!"

Han Feng's hawk-like eyes snapped open as he looked at the departing butler.

This is the key to the important study!

The key was originally kept by the deceased's father, but after the father passed away, the key was given to the deceased for safekeeping.

"It seems there's something the butler wants in the study!"

at this time.

The system notification sound rang out.

【Ding! 】

[Triggering Quest: Investigate the Butler's Intentions!]

"Ok?"

"Investigating the butler's intentions?"

Han Feng's heart skipped a beat.

He immediately accepted the task.

Followed by.

He got up, left the room without making a sound, and quietly followed the butler.

Not long after.

The butler arrived at the study, carefully took out the key, opened the study door, and quietly went inside.

Seeing this, Han Feng followed closely behind.

After the butler entered the study, he went straight to the desk, opened the drawer, and took out a sandalwood box.

Then, the sandalwood box was opened.

Inside the sandalwood box was a stack of what appeared to be silver notes.

Seeing this, the butler quickly began to examine each document.

"found it!"

A moment later, the butler suddenly let out a soft exclamation, his face beaming with joy.

however!

at this time.

A cold voice came from behind the butler.

"What did you find?"

The butler was startled upon hearing this.

I was utterly horrified.

His own young master was not bewitched by him, and instead appeared behind him silently.

The butler was so frightened that sweat beaded on his forehead and his palms were soaked.

He turned around slowly, trembling with fear.

Upon seeing Han Feng in front of him, his eyes narrowed sharply.

"The prince...the prince..."

The butler stammered, so frightened that he couldn't speak coherently.

shuh~

Han Feng reached out, grabbed the butler by the neck, and lifted him up.

Then, he took the papers from the butler's hand.

"An IOU?"

Han Feng frowned slightly, then examined the contents of the IOU.

"Jade Tiger, because Nanyang City is short of funds, borrowed 500,000 taels of silver?"

"Did Jade Tiger borrow 500,000 taels of silver from the original owner's father?"

"Could it be that the death of the original owner's father was caused by Jade Tiger?"

"He's trying to murder for money! Not only does Jade Tiger not want to return the 500,000 taels of silver, but he also wants the gold mine discovered in the original owner's father's fiefdom?"

Han Feng looked at the IOU in his hand and began to speculate.

Subsequently.

His gaze fell on the butler.

This butler is clearly one of Emerald Tiger's men.

His actions tonight were aimed at stealing the IOU and handing it over to Jade Tiger.

Upon thinking of this, Han Feng's eyes narrowed, and he stared sharply at the butler, coldly asking, "Did Jade Tiger murder my father?"

The butler was being choked by Han Feng, his face was flushed red, and he looked like he was about to suffocate.

His eyes pleaded, begging Han Feng to let him go.

Han Feng's eyes flashed, and he released his grip.

"Whoo~"

"Cough cough~"

The butler collapsed to the ground, panting heavily and gasping for breath.

Then, he started coughing repeatedly.

Han Feng's eyes narrowed, revealing a murderous intent.

Upon seeing this, the steward was so frightened that he didn't even have time to catch his breath. He hurriedly knelt down and said, "Your Highness, spare my life! I... I didn't want to do this either. Jade Tiger forced me to do this."

“My son committed a crime and was caught by Jade Tiger; Jade Tiger told me that if I wanted to save my son’s life, I should find the IOU and give it to him.”

"As for whether Master was murdered by Jade Tiger, I really don't know!"

"Your Highness, spare my life..."

The butler was so frightened that he blurted out everything in one breath.

"shut up!"

Han Feng said coldly.

The butler was so frightened that he dared not beg for mercy again.

"Did Jade Tiger plot against the butler's son to force the butler to steal the IOU in order to avoid repaying the money?"

"Is it really that simple?"

Han Feng's eyes flickered, but he did not give up his suspicions about Emerald Tiger.

He then put the IOU into his pocket and put it away.

This is 500,000 taels of silver, no small sum.

We currently lack the strength to collect debts from Jade Tiger.
