Chapter 538 Your Circle is Really Chaotic
Wu Xingyu brought people to Louwailou to pick up food this time. Although he is now hiding in a low profile in the empire and does not participate in those miscellaneous banquets and social events, troubles always keep coming to him.
He was just in a stage of developing secretly, low-key and insignificantly, and he was not really not trying to fight, so he simply held a banquet in his own Third Prince's Mansion and invited a group of real team members, a group of smoke bombs and a group of cannon fodder to come.
The first was to deal with the strange speculations about him from the outside world, so he simply opened the door and let them come in and see for themselves; the second was to communicate with those "insiders" openly; and the third was naturally to make his elder and second brothers, who were eyeing him covetously, behave themselves; he was not a man without temper.
As for the banquet held at the Third Prince's Mansion, why would he, as the host of the banquet, come in person to pick up the food? Of course, it was because he had selfish motives and wanted to see if he could meet the person of his dreams.
Unexpectedly, his luck, which had been lost for several years, came back today. Before he went back, he met the person he had been thinking about day and night at the entrance of the teleportation array.
During their conversation, Yun Qimu also learned that Wu Xingyu had found out who was behind the mecha regiment attacking them outside the imperial capital that night.
As expected, the one who mobilized the mecha regiment to intercept them was the eldest prince Grayson, who had the most violent temper and the most impatience. In addition, the second prince Cassio also gave a push behind the scenes, making it easier for this mecha regiment, and the Garcia family and the Lopez family also participated.
However, the Second Prince and the Garcia family were very covert in their methods. The Second Prince mobilized his own people behind the scenes, people he had not even used in the last fight with the First Prince Grayson. However, all of this was still discovered by Emperor Argus's spies.
So your biological father is still your biological father after all, and his ability is superior to his son's.
As for the information found by the Garcia family, it was a bit strange. The person who acted secretly was from the Ming family. Following the clue of the Ming family, they found a lover of the old head of the Garcia family, Barnett Garcia.
This lover was called Lao Daisi, a beauty and an extremely resourceful woman. She even made Barnett Garcia, who had been widowed for a long time, think of marrying a new wife.
This news caused great trouble for the Garcia family. Although the position of the head of the Garcia family has been handed over to the new head, Marcus Garcia, a lot of power is still held by Barnett, and even most of the family operations are controlled by Barnett.
Such a shrewd and shrewd old patriarch, who was deeply respected by the whole family, actually proposed to take a second wife, and the second wife was a young and beautiful commoner woman he met recently, but with an extremely ordinary family background.
This news was like a huge earthquake to the Garcia family, shaking the entire family to the ground.
The previous lovers were fine, but this was about marrying a wife and recognizing the official status.
Once that woman becomes a step-wife with a title, she will be the mistress of their Garcia family and have the right to control the Garcia family.
If she could give birth to a child in the future, she could compete with the new head of the family, Marcus, for the right of inheritance. This would be a huge uncertainty for a family.
But Barnett was determined to marry her, and now the Garcia family is in even greater chaos because of this matter, and the relationship between father and son is also on the verge of a confrontation.
It is said that Marcus has sent several waves of people to assassinate the woman, but none of them succeeded. Instead, Barnett caught him in the act and scolded him for not respecting his elders and stepmother. He directly used his power to suppress the matter of marrying a step-wife, making it a foregone conclusion. No matter how angry Marcus was, it was useless.
Wu Xingyu, who discovered this incident while investigating the mastermind behind the incident, got to know a lot of gossips, and Yun Qimu sighed that your circle is really messy.
But the clue ended here. They had no idea who was behind this stepmother, Laudie, and whether Barnett Garcia had given her any instructions or intervened.
The only thing we know is that this woman who was promoted from lover to stepmother is definitely not simple.
Wu Xingyu ordered people to conduct an in-depth investigation into her.
"What about Lan Xuyan? What did you find out?" Yun Qimu asked thoughtfully after listening.
Wu Xingyu's refined and noble brows knitted slightly, a solemn look gathering in her silver eyes. "Lan Xuyan is a very cautious person. He mostly hangs out at the research institute and banquets. His connections within the institute are simple. Aside from the teacher who originally recommended him, he only has a few of his subordinates who follow him in research. He usually stays alone in the lab and never comes out."
"And at the banquet, he was very sociable. He seemed to be able to talk to everyone and exchange a few words. He seemed to have good relationships with everyone, especially those noble ladies and ladies who admired him. We need to investigate to determine who was colluding with him to commit the crime."
"And ever since that night, he locked himself in the lab, claiming he had made a new discovery, and he hasn't come out yet."
"Oh, then this person is indeed difficult to deal with." Yun Qimu also frowned, with a thoughtful look on his face.
The Lan Xuyan they met that night was very different from the person they investigated, and they didn't seem like the same person at all.
So which side is his disguise?
However, one thing is certain: there is definitely something wrong with Lan Xuyan, and we must dig deeper.
Wu Xingyu also had the same tacit understanding on this point. He ranked Lan Xuyan's importance in the first tier and handed it over to Yun Qichen for personal investigation. He even went to ask his father for help.
After listening to his arrangements, Yun Qimu nodded in satisfaction. Then, as if remembering something, he quickly asked, "By the way, what's the news about Yun Caishang?"
Wu Xingyu stretched out his hand and pinched the fingertips that he held in his hand, with a smile on his handsome face, "Don't worry, I just said that you went out for fun. The outside world doesn't know about your disappearance. You can come back anytime as Yun Caishang, or come back with a different face."
Yun Qimu chuckled, "Then I'd better change my face. After all, others may not know the God's Favored, but they know where I am. Moreover, the God's Favored's abilities are beyond our imagination. They can actually create a black hole similar to a teleportation array, so you still have to pay more attention to this organization."
"Also, the people favored by the gods in the Han Dynasty used a stunning beauty to secretly kill the old Han King and supported the new Han King to take the throne. I suspect they have also planted similar people in the empire. You have to be careful about this."
Wu Xingyu blinked and said in a gentle voice, "Don't worry, I won't be attracted to any other woman besides you, no matter how beautiful she is."
Yun Qimu blushed a little, then glared at him fiercely, "How can you, a person who is blind to women's faces, tell whether a woman is beautiful or not?"
Wu Xingyu was silent for a moment, pleading innocence at the sudden accusation. Frowning, she said matter-of-factly, "But I only need to recognize your face."
