Even though Zhang Zhirou changed her words temporarily, Qin Yian still understood what she was worried about. For Zhang Zhiyi's sake, he didn't point it out directly.

"Don't worry, Miss Zhang. The dead and injured are all gangsters. The rest are fine."

Qin Yian's meaningful answer surprised Zhang Zhiyi a little.

"What about next door? Is there anything wrong with the people next door?" Zhang Zhirou asked again. She remembered Xiaoduo told her that Sister He also appeared next door.

"Nothing." Qin Yian replied.

Zhang Zhiyi walked in and took a look. At just one glance, he knew that these two people were not bandits. Judging from their attire, they must be assassins.

Two bodies lay in the front yard, and the yard was in a mess. Based on the traces at the scene, Zhang Zhiyi could probably guess what had happened. He was thinking when a heavy voice came from next door.

"Let me see who dares to move?!"

Nanqi stood at the door. It didn't matter where else he was, but this study was where his master was, and he would never let anyone see his master.

The people brought by Shen San were frightened by Nan Qi's momentum. They stopped in the yard, hesitating and not daring to move.

Shen San had been unhappy with Nan Qi for a long time. This time he openly resisted, which was an act of insubordination, and he finally got his chance.

His face was cold, "Search! If anyone dares to resist, arrest them!"

Everyone looked at each other. Although Nanqi's momentum was intimidating, he was just an ordinary citizen after all. But Shen San was different. He was an official. As long as it was related to the word "official", he had to obey.

Nanqi looked at the men rushing towards him, and a hint of danger flashed in his eyes.

A man holding a long stick came to the door of the study first. However, before he could enter, he was kicked out.

Seeing that man's extraordinary skills, everyone stopped in fear.

Seeing this, Shen San was furious. "How dare you hit the officer! Let's go together and take him down!"

"stop!"

Just as a group of people were heading towards Nanqi to besiege him, a majestic voice rang out and stopped those people.

Shen San turned around and saw a man with sharp eyebrows, bright eyes and a majestic aura standing there. Without saying a word, one could tell at a glance that he was extraordinary.

Behind him, Qin Yian's face was very ugly. At the same time, he silently cast a look at Shen San.

"Boss..."

“Why attack the people?”

As soon as Shen San opened his mouth, he was sternly interrupted by Zhang Zhiyi. In Zhang Zhiyi's eyes, officials were there to serve the people, not to bully others.

When Qin Yian went to the general's mansion before, he went alone, so Shen San didn't know Zhang Zhiyi.

Although it was obvious that this man was of extraordinary status, he still didn't think of Zhang Zhiyi.

Just as he was guessing the identity of the visitor, Zhang Zhirou walked out quickly from the corridor, trotted towards Mrs. He, and happily called out "Sister He".

Seeing this, Shen San guessed the identity of the visitor.

"General Zhang, this unruly man openly assaulted the officers. I was simply following the rules and wanted to arrest him."

Zhang Zhiyi looked normal, but his eyes were fixed on the imposing Nan Qi.

Relying on his many years of experience in killing enemies on the battlefield, Zhang Zhiyi sensed a sense of danger in Nanqi.

"Sir, what on earth happened here?"

"What happened? Then you should ask your officers why they broke into private homes for no reason?" Nan Qi stood there with a cold look on his face.

"What do you mean by for no reason? I came here to arrest someone after receiving a report!" Shen San became anxious when he saw that Nanqi's words were misleading.

"Captain Qin, the child!" Shen San suddenly remembered what Nangong Xiyun said and said to Qin Yian, "This woman has a child, about the same age as the child of the murderer in the western suburbs we are pursuing! He must be in this room. As long as we search, everything will be revealed!"

"According to what this gentleman said, if there is a child who is the murderer, then wouldn't the world be overrun with murderers?"

Another voice was heard in the study, and even Qin Yian was surprised. She didn't expect that there was someone else in Anheju!

When Nanqi heard Baili Moqing speak, he went into the house and pushed him out.

The moment Zhang Zhiyi saw Baili Moqing, he had unknowingly lowered his hands that were originally behind his back.

Although he had never seen the person before him, his aura made him want to show respect. It was as if he was a noble person who was always high and mighty.

It seemed as if he was born to stand in the clouds.

"cousin……"

The moment Nangong Xiyun saw Baili Moqing coming out, the uneasiness in her heart reached its peak.

His identity should not be revealed to outsiders. And now, he actually appeared in front of everyone...

Baili Moqing glanced at her calmly, then said to Zhang Zhiyi, "General Zhang, I think you've seen the tricks of the harem. The quarrels between the women must have made you laugh."

Baili Moqing's words were not very straightforward, but those who understood would understand.

At least Zhang Zhiyi understood.

What he meant was that the so-called "reporting" was just a trick used by the women in the harem to eliminate dissidents.

Nangong Xiyun looked at him in disbelief. He actually compared himself to the vicious woman in the harem who was manipulating people just for a strange woman...

There were tears and disappointment in her eyes.

She threw away all the luxury in Hengshan, disregarded her reputation, abandoned her maids and servants, and ran to find him fearlessly. Is this the result she got in return?

"Cousin, why do you treat me like this?"

Nanqi was afraid that she would say something unfavorable to the master, so he said sternly, "Uncle Zhang, send my cousin back to her room!"

"Nanqi, you can't do this to me! I am..."

"Shut up!" Baili Moqing looked at her, the dissatisfaction and indifference in his eyes reaching freezing point.

"You and I are cousins, nothing more. It's none of your business to tell me what kind of woman I like or who I talk to! If staying in Anheju only causes unrest in our family, then go back tomorrow!"

Before Nangong Xiyun could say anything, Uncle Zhang's voice rang in her ears, "Cousin, do you want the young master's identity to be exposed? If so, I'm afraid your Nangong family will also be implicated!"

She looked at Zhang Bo with hatred, but could only grit her teeth and swallow it.

She looked at Nanqi again, and at the others, as if she wanted to remember everyone present who had seen her laugh.

Finally, her gaze fell on Shu He. Her seemingly calm eyes were actually full of viciousness, as if she was looking at a corpse.

"Boss, Miss Nangong is a witness, how can we let them hide?" Shen San was unwilling and wanted Qin Yian to speak up to stop them.

Although Qin Yian felt powerless, he had been the one who had dragged Shen San into this matter. He couldn't leave Shen San alone to bear the brunt of the situation. Gritting his teeth, he said to Zhang Zhiyi, "General Zhang, we should make this matter clear. After all, this concerns eight lives in the western suburbs!"
