When they were some distance away from the yard, the two men dismounted, used their lightness skills to reach the roof of the bedroom, and met up with An Shisan.

When Thirteen saw Xie Beiheng, he immediately lowered his voice and said, "Master, the person went in and hasn't come out yet!"

Xie Beiheng gently pushed down a tile on the roof, revealing a crack, and looked down.

Liu Jiachuan and a woman were sitting opposite each other on the edge of the bed. The woman was wearing a pink dress and looked young, beautiful, charming and enchanting.

Xie Beiheng's eyes were dark and his brows were slightly furrowed.

At this time, An Yi and An Shi landed lightly beside them.

Xie Beiheng still stared at the two people in the room. Liu Jiachuan took the woman's hand and then held her in his arms. The woman leaned in Liu Jiachuan's arms with a charming smile.

Xie Beiheng's brows furrowed even more tightly.

Suddenly, his eyes widened and a dark color flashed in his eyes!

wrong!

"An Yi, go to the Minister of War's residence immediately and take out all the letters from the secret compartment in Liu Jiachuan's study!"

"Go immediately, don't worry about alerting the guards outside!"

"Yes, master."

After receiving the order, An Yi immediately flew down with An Shi. At this time, the sky had completely darkened. The two of them rushed to the Minister of War's Mansion in the night.

After An Yi and An Shi left, Xie Beiheng brought Xu Chong into the yard and kicked the door open.

"boom"

The door was kicked open with a loud noise. The two people who were snuggling together in the room seemed to be frightened by this sudden change.

The woman hurriedly hid behind Liu Jiachuan, and Liu Jiachuan also looked at the person who came in panic.

When he saw who it was, Liu Jiachuan's face flushed with anger. He gently patted the frightened woman, then stood up and pointed at Xie Beiheng, shouting:

"Zhenbei Hou's son, I'd like to ask you what you're doing trespassing into my house so late at night?"

"If you can't come up with a clear answer today, I will go to the palace and report you to the Emperor!"

His words were harsh, his teeth were gnashed, his wrinkled eyes were filled with venom, and his gray beard was twitching.

Xie Beiheng chuckled, "It turned out to be Minister Liu!"

He raised his eyebrows and glanced behind him, "Minister Liu is really strong despite his age!"

Liu Jiachuan said angrily, "Your Highness, you haven't explained why you're acting like this today. Even if you're the Marquis of Zhenbei, you must give an explanation!"

Xie Beiheng had a smile on his face, "Minister Liu, calm down. This prince didn't know this was Minister Liu's house."

"Just now, a thief stole a jade pendant from this prince. I chased him all the way to Qingluo Lane. I saw the thief enter this courtyard, and in a moment of anxiety, I rushed in."

Liu Jiachuan stared, "Nonsense, there are only me and Mei Niang here, where did the thieves come from?"

Xie Beiheng shook his head, "tsk tsk" sounding, "Minister Liu, would this prince really lie to you? I'm afraid the thief not only stole the jade, but also the fragrance..."

After saying this, he glanced meaningfully at the charming woman behind him.

When Liu Jiachuan heard this, he didn't want to argue with him and said angrily: "If I say there is no, then there is no. Please go back, my lord!"

Xie Beiheng didn't move at all, and smiled roguely, "That won't do. I saw the thief coming in, and I won't give up if I don't search him today."

"or……"

"This prince has asked someone to invite the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture to come over. What do you think, Minister Liu?"

Hearing this, Liu Jiachuan stared at Xie Beiheng closely, his narrowed eyes flashing with brilliance, and then sneered:

"Your Highness, you're just saying you saw thieves break in. Fine! I'll let you search now!"

"only……"

"What if we can't find it?"

Xie Beiheng laughed and said arrogantly, "Minister Liu is really interesting. If you can't find the thief, it means he has escaped. I will catch him next time!"

"How do you want to be one?"

Liu Jiachuan's eyes flashed with a hint of malice, "The Marquis of Zhenbei commands an army of 200,000. They are truly arrogant and domineering!"

Xie Beiheng met his gaze and smiled wickedly, "Minister Liu, you are too kind!"

Then he glanced at the woman behind him and said with interest, "Minister Liu, please continue. This prince will not search this bed!"

After saying that, he walked to the chair next to the eight-immortal table in the room and sat down, and ordered Xu Chong to search the yard.

Apart from this main house, the entire yard only had east and west wing rooms and a kitchen. Xu Chong searched for a full half hour before returning.

He bowed and said, "Sir, we didn't find anyone!"

Xie Beiheng stood up awkwardly upon hearing this, and said in frustration, "Ah! It seems the thief has escaped. This prince will not disturb Minister Liu's pleasure!"

"Farewell!"

After saying that, without even looking at him, she turned around and walked away.

As soon as he left the hospital, Xie Beiheng summoned An Shi immediately, "If that woman steps out of the room, take her away immediately!"

"Yes, Master!"

When Xie Beiheng and Xu Chong returned to the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion, An Yi had already retrieved all the letters.

Xie Beiheng immediately said to Xu Chong in a deep voice, "Go and invite Mr. Guo to my study!"

Soon, Mr. Guo hurried into the study and said with a bow, "Sir, is there any news from Qingluo Lane?"

Xie Beiheng's breath was cold as he looked at Mr. Guo, whose face was full of anxiety, with a hint of unwillingness in his eyes.

"Our people are exposed!"

Mr. Guo exclaimed, "Why is this happening? What is going on?"

Xie Beiheng's eyes were cold, and he gritted his teeth and said, "An Shi came back today to report that a woman had entered the courtyard of Qingluo Lane."

"Only when I arrived did I realize that she was just an ordinary prostitute."

Mr. Guo frowned. "Is Liu Jiachuan trying to use the excuse of having a mistress to cover up his tracks and clear himself of suspicion?"

Xie Beiheng shook his head and replied in a deep voice, "It's certain that the old man originally came out of the secret passage intending to meet the Beirong royal family, but for some reason, a prostitute came instead."

"This prince suspects that the Northern Rong royal family has discovered the secret guards hiding outside, so they temporarily called in a prostitute!"

Mr. Guo's face darkened when he heard this. "If that's the case, the Beirong royal family might abandon Liu Jiachuan. It would be impossible for us to find the person from him!"

Xie Beiheng's face was gloomy, "There's no use keeping Liu Jiachuan!"

"That brothel girl might have left some clues, but the hope is slim."

"Other than that, we can only start from the letters and see if we can find any clues."

letter?

Mr. Guo thought Xie Beiheng was talking about the two letters from yesterday.

Now that his crime has been exposed, Liu Jiachuan will certainly eliminate the evidence. How can we then bring that old thief to justice?

Thinking of this, Mr. Guo hurriedly asked excitedly: "Sir, the letter in Liu Jiachuan's study..."

"Sir, don't be nervous. I've already had someone take it out!"

Seeing the situation in the room from the roof, Xie Beiheng knew that they were exposed, so he immediately ordered An Yi to retrieve all the letters.

Mr. Guo was immediately overjoyed, with a look of amazement in his eyes. "The prince is truly as resourceful as a god, and his wisdom and courage are unparalleled!"

"I will immediately carefully examine those letters one by one and find any clues!"
