"Does he know who you are?"

Gao Yi felt a wave of fear wash over him.

If the Minister's identity were exposed, there would be many unexpected dangers.

Especially since Tang Huan is a reckless madman, he might resort to desperate measures and kill her to silence her.

After all, the adults already knew that the other party had done too many things behind the court's back, and that was unacceptable.

Wang Tianze shook his head and guessed, "He probably hasn't guessed my true identity yet, but he definitely knows we're not ordinary people."

While he was testing Tang Huan, Tang Huan was also testing him.

At the very least, when that seemingly foolish subordinate mentioned Cui Yuanzhao and Wang Jingze's names, he must have had ulterior motives, and my brief moment of distraction at that time must have been noticed.

"He probably wouldn't guess that I'm a minister. At most, he'd guess that I have some connection with Jingze or Yuanzhao. He'd most likely assume we're related to someone from one of those two factions."

Gao Yi looked deeply worried. "Sir, should we continue searching for him? I'm worried..."

Wang Tianze knew exactly what was on their minds.

However, unlike Gao Yi, he was not timid and was confident.

It's possible, but very unlikely.

Although Tang Huan showed many shortcomings during our brief contact, it is clear from his act of helping Qihuai County that he is definitely not a cold-hearted person.

Since he already possesses talents that are difficult for ordinary people to match, there is no need for him to stay in Qihuai County, whether it's to make money or get promoted.

Even worse, if he had other ideas, there would be no need for him to hide all of this from Qihuai County.

He only needed to report everything about Qihuai County to the higher authorities to receive a huge reward. He would have entered the imperial court as an official several years earlier instead of staying in Qihuai County.

Perhaps this person has their own ideas.

"Tomorrow's plan continues."

Wang Tianze would not forget the purpose of his visit; it was a mission assigned by His Majesty.

Moreover, Wang Tianze was also very curious about whether Tang Huan was indeed the capable minister who governed the country.

If so, he would bring the person back to the capital even if it cost him his old bones!

The next morning, Wang Tianze took Gao Yi to visit the government office.

For the entire hour, they waited at the back gate of the government office, only to see Li Daikui, but not a single trace of Tang Huan.

It wasn't until the sun was high in the sky that Li Daikui came out from behind the door. "Please, gentlemen."

Before long, Wang Tianze saw Tang Huan yawning, which made him suspect that the other party had just gotten up and was even still a little sleepy.

But then I thought, Tang Huan shouldn't be that kind of person.

"Could it be that he knew we would come after seeing who we were, and deliberately left us waiting outside the door before putting on this disguise?"

Wang Tianze couldn't help but think a lot, and was shocked to find that Tang Huan was quite cunning and unfathomable.

After inviting the two to sit down, Tang Huan rubbed his face vigorously, leaned back in his chair, and looked somewhat listless.

"I'm so sorry, I can't hold my liquor, and the aftereffects are quite severe. I still have a terrible headache, and I've kept you both waiting for so long..."

Before he could finish speaking, a figure in a white dress slowly walked up behind Tang Huan and began to gently massage his shoulders and back, taking meticulous care of him.

Upon closer inspection, the girl appeared to be only sixteen or seventeen years old, dressed in a simple white dress, yet possessing an extraordinary and ethereal quality.

At this moment, the woman lowered her eyes, revealing a sorrowful air, making people wonder what had happened to her and feel sorry for her.

Qin Yu paid no attention to Wang Tianze and Gao Yi on the other side, and kept cursing Tang Huan in his heart.

Tang Huan left in a hurry last night and didn't return until late at night, looking quite drunk.

As a servant girl, Qin Yu was not allowed to go to bed before her master fell asleep. She had to suppress her displeasure and serve Tang Huan for a long time, wiping her face and changing her clothes, which took a long time.

I initially thought he left in such a hurry because of social obligations, but I overheard him mentioning a woman's name in his drunken ramblings. She was a girl from the entertainment center.

Qin Yu then learned that after leaving the Tang family, Tang Huan had taken Li Daikui to an entertainment center, where he had been playing and drinking with girls...

This kept Qin Yu simmering with anger, and during the massage, he felt an urge to strangle Tang Huan.

"This is……"

Gao Yi looked at Qin Yu and asked curiously.

Tang Huan didn't turn around and said directly, "This is a woman I picked up. She was about to starve to death, but I couldn't bear to leave her by my side as my servant... Haven't you eaten? Put in more effort."

After a series of urgings, Qin Yu put on a stern face, increased his strength, and wished he could strangle Tang Huan to death.

This, on the contrary, made Tang Huan show a pleased expression.

After Xue'e brought the tea, Tang Huan moistened her throat before looking at Wang Tianze.

"Did you two come to see me to discuss business?"

Wang Tianze gently shook his head.

"No?" Tang Huan was a little puzzled. In the past, the people who came to Qihuai County were either refugees who used Qihuai County as a shelter, or they came to do business after hearing rumors.

He thought of the relationship between the two men and those two young masters, and asked in return, "Could it be that the scoundrels in the capital are not doing well?"

"No, the comic book business is very good, and we came here for this very reason."

Wang Tianze paused briefly and repeated yesterday's question, "Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it. I wonder how you understand this saying, sir?"

Tang Huan didn't take it to heart, but Qin Yu, who was busy massaging her back, couldn't help but think about it for a moment, and she had a strange feeling for a moment.

It was as if that sentence contained some profound truth.
