Xiahou Yi sat in a wheelchair with a sad face.

In front of him stood Elder Li and Elder Hai, both looking equally grief-stricken.

The two of them didn't expect that when they came back from their trip, the situation in the City Lord's Mansion had changed.

Elder Liu died, and Elder Zhao was also killed while trying to save the city lord.

In fact, they were in the City Lord's Mansion when the City Lord was attacked.

Unfortunately, when they arrived, the city lord had already been beheaded by the assassin. Manager Chang hugged the city lord's head and cried uncontrollably.

But even so, the assassin did not give up and kicked Manager Chang into the sea.

Later, Manager Chang was salvaged, but the city lord's head disappeared.

Because the head was not found, the city lord's body was never announced to the public and was kept in a thousand-year-old ice coffin.

The guard beside Xiahou Yi said: "The two elders were called here today because the real culprit behind the assassination of the city lord has been found." - "Hundred Flowers Palace!"

"What? What does this have to do with Baihua Palace?"

In Ling Yun's room, Wei Liulang was extremely shocked after hearing Su Xiaoxiao's speculation, "Ling Yun is the city lord's biological son, why would he assassinate the city lord? Is he crazy? No one would believe such a thing."

Wei Qing said, "I have the same idea as Xiaoxiao. Xiahou Yi will frame Ling Yun."

Wei Liulang expressed his doubt: "Is your guess reliable? My own son killed me? How deep is the hatred and resentment? Even if he did let down Palace Master Yunxi and Lingyun, from the perspective of outsiders, at least he is trying his best to make up for it, and anyone who is not blind can see that he intends to pass the position of city lord to Lingyun. Lingyun has no reason to kill him! He has to find a convincing excuse for his lie!"

Gui Bu nodded.

He also felt that if Xiahou Yi wanted to pin everything on Ling Yun, it would be hard to convince people.

The Palace Master and Wei Xu did not express their opinions for the time being.

Su Xiaoxiao asked: "What if the city lord suddenly finds that Ling Yun is not qualified for the position of city lord?"

"Huh?" Wei Liulang was stunned.

Su Xiaoxiao glanced at the four of them and said, "The city lord discovered Dad's true identity and learned that Dad was also a descendant of Emperor Wu, and that Dad came to the island to seize the dragon crystal so that he could open the Emperor Wu's mausoleum. The city lord immediately wanted to kill Dad, but Ling Yun had a deep relationship with Dad and stood on his side. The city lord then threatened Ling Yun, 'If you want to inherit the position of city lord, kill Wei Xu for me, otherwise, you will never be able to return to the Xiahou family in this life!' What would Ling Yun do?"

Wei Liulang said: "Of course he will ignore the city lord. Ling Yun doesn't want the position of city lord."

Su Xiaoxiao shook her head: "It doesn't matter whether Ling Yun is rare or not. What matters is whether others think he is rare or not."

Wei Qing said: "That's right. Compared to the truth that Ling Yun is indifferent to fame and fortune, the people on the island are more willing to believe that he is ambitious and jealous, and killed his biological father who killed his mother for the position of city lord."

Wei Liulang suddenly realized: "That seems to make some sense."

Boom! Suddenly there was a loud noise outside the yard.

Wei Liulang dodged immediately.

It was Sha Nu fighting with a man who... uh... was wrapped like a big black dumpling.

The slave killer threw Wei Xiaobao high up in the air and slapped him in the face! The opponent quickly blocked with his fists and was forced back more than ten steps, with the soles of his shoes rubbed and smoking.

“Hiss—”

He gasped, "Fuck you! Why don't you go back to Qianji Pavilion and stay here?!"

"Wooooooooooooooo!"

Wei Xiaobao fell down with a crash.

The slave killer flew up, caught it steadily, and landed as light as a swallow.

Wei Xiaobao crossed his legs in excitement: "Woo-wah-wah!"

After throwing it high, Sha Nu developed the skill of walking in the garden to bask in the sun.

Wei Xiaobao woke up in the morning and held her for a walk.

In the afternoon, Wei Xiaobao woke up and I held her for a walk.

All in all, it can last for a day.

As soon as I brought Wei Xiaobao out today, I ran into an unidentified object.

Looks old and ugly.

But this was not the reason for his action.

This guy is blocking his way!

Lu Aotian made a quick gesture: “Shhhhhh!”

"Um?"

Wei Liulang looked at him in confusion.

Lu Aotian limped over, his soles of his feet hissing in pain, gritted his teeth and muttered: "Grandpa, grandma, you hit me so hard..."

Seeing the slave killer raise his hand again, Lu Aotian's body trembled: "You're still hitting me!"

Wei Liulang pulled him over and said, "You are blocking the way of killing slaves."

Don't ask him how he knew that; the answer is that he was beaten.

Sha Nu held Wei Xiaobao and continued to walk and bask in the sun.

Wei Xiaobao saw the golden flowers blooming along the way and cried happily.

“This trail is Xiaobao’s favorite.”

Wei Liulang added.

He immediately looked at him strangely, "Why do you wrap yourself up like this?"

Lu Aotian said: "I came here secretly, are your father and the Palace Master here?"

Wei Liulang took him to Lingyun's Qingyun Palace.

Lu Aotian sat down on the futon, took off his hat, and said with a complicated look: "I came here to tell you two news. The first is that Xiahou Yi has become the new city lord."

"He...is the city lord?" Wei Liulang was extremely surprised.

The others were somewhat surprised, but not too surprised.

When Xiahou Yi killed Xiahou Qing's substitute, they guessed that Xiahou Yi wanted to become the city lord himself.

"What's the second news?" Wei Xu asked.

Lu Aotian glanced at everyone and said, "The second news is that the murderer of the city lord has been found."

Su Xiaoxiao: "Who?"

Lu Aotian: "Second Young Master."

Su Xiaoxiao was stunned: "It turned out to be Xie Jinnian... It's completely different from what we guessed... What is Xia Houyi doing?"

Wei Qing also found it strange: "Xie Jinnian is just an adopted son, there is no need to frame him with such a serious incident. He could have used it to deal with Ling Yun, the biggest threat."

The palace master looked at Wei Xu.

Wei Xu frowned: "And he didn't take the opportunity to get out of the Wei family, which is really surprising."

Putting the blame on Xie Jinnian is like using a butcher knife to kill a fly.

This is not to say that Xie Jinnian is weak, but that Xiahou Yi can fully maximize the benefits and say that Ling Yun is the mastermind and Xie Jinnian is an accomplice.

Killing two birds with one stone, isn't that a lot of trouble?

Su Xiaoxiao said thoughtfully: "This Xiahou Yi is really hard to figure out."

This wasn't the first time they had misjudged his plans.

When they first learned that there was a substitute, they thought it would be another drama similar to the one in the royal family of southern Xinjiang where someone was used as a substitute.

Unexpectedly, Xiahou Yi killed the "city lord" that night.

And then it's now.

He missed the great opportunity to frame Ling Yun and only dealt with Xie Jinnian.

He was like a madman, and the actions of a madman are untraceable.

Su Xiaoxiao felt the situation was difficult for the first time: "What does he want to do?"

Wei Qing pondered and said, "He must have a greater purpose."

Wei Xiaobao: Woohoo! 　　Let me go! 　　 　 (End of this chapter)
