Chapter 696 The Man Who Complained

But the driver seemed to know some kung fu. Not long after he walked out, he disappeared without a trace in front of him.

He rubbed his eyes hard, trying to confirm the reality, but he really couldn't see any trace of that person.

I know that I might have met a master this time, but I don’t know whether the opponent is beneficial to me.

But he had already come to this point and there was nothing to worry about. Thinking of this, he walked more firmly towards the tavern.

Although the tavern was small, it had its own private rooms. When he arrived near the tavern, someone came forward to guide him and told him where he should go.

He was deeply impressed by how thoughtful this man was, as he had arranged everything so perfectly.

Without stopping, he ran towards the tavern.

When I opened the door, I saw a man standing in front of the window. The window was closed at this time, and I didn't know what he was looking at.

This person is naturally Pei Chuyan.

Pei Chuyan was originally taller, and perhaps he had a somewhat childish look on his face in the past, but now, because of the disguise, he looks more mature.

The man couldn't tell the man's age, but he could tell he was a rich young man, so he bowed to him and said, "This young man."

Pei Chuyan finally came to his senses.

He was indeed distracted just now.

Coincidentally, from the angle of this tavern, you can just see the courtyard where the Imperial Concubine once lived.

After seeing this, Pei Chuyan was distracted again.

He was wondering, if the princess and the royal concubine were here, how would they handle this matter?

Given the Royal Concubine's personality, she would probably use drastic measures to capture and execute the mastermind behind this incident.

The same goes for the princess.

But I can't do it, after all, this matter involves the emperor of Dali Kingdom.

No matter what the two countries had in mind, at least on the surface, they still had a very friendly relationship. The son of the Emperor of Great Chu even went to visit the Kingdom of Dali in person.

If a dispute arises at this time, it will also have a bad impact on the Great Chu State.

But if the matter is confirmed, it is hard to say.

Thinking of this, he turned around and bowed to the man in front of him, motioning him to sit down.

Seeing this man being so polite, the man breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that the other party does not intend to kill him. Perhaps if he wants to find the truth for his wife and daughter, this will give him a glimmer of hope.

Thinking of this, he stood up, took out the complaint from his lapel, and knelt down in front of Pei Chuyan.

Pei Chuyan was startled and hurried forward to hit him, but the man knelt on the ground and refused to get up: "Sir, please make the decision for me."

Pei Chuyan did not take the complaint, but instead used his inner strength to lift the man up from the ground and let him sit back.

Ask: "Just tell me what happened."

The man began to talk in detail about what had happened to his wife since she gave birth.

"My wife and I have been married for many years, but we have not had any children. I was naturally happy to have this child, but as my wife was not in good health, I hired a wet nurse to take care of her."

"At first, the nurse behaved very well. She handled everything very well and took good care of my wife and children."

"But the turning point came on a rainy day. I went out and came back late. But when I got home, I could no longer see my wife and daughter."

"Even the nurse is missing."

"Since then, I have started a long search. I have looked for the imperial guards in charge of the safety of Wanlong City and the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture, but they all turned a blind eye to me."

"But it has been so long and we still haven't found it. The governor of Jingzhao has ignored us."

"Not to mention the imperial guards, who even beat up the common people."

Pei Chuyan finally spoke: "Okay, I understand."

"Don't complain anymore, and don't look for it anymore. Leave this matter to me."

Pei Chuyan asked about his home address in detail: "Just go about your business as usual, and I will take care of the rest for you."

The man suddenly felt that Pei Chuyan might be someone sent by that side, who wanted to use this opportunity to make him shut up.

But when he looked at Pei Chuyan, he felt that he was not that kind of person.

He was struggling, but after thinking it over again and again, he finally nodded.

After all, there is no need for the other party to provoke me for no reason. If he doesn't want me to investigate further, given the nature of these dignitaries, they will just kill me directly.

After leaving the tavern and returning to the inn, Pei Chuyan called Long Yingwei and Lin Ji to his side again.

"Go check what the weather was like on the day all the babies went missing."

After receiving instructions from His Majesty, the Dragon Shadow Guard left the capital and followed Pei Chuyan's orders in everything, so when they heard Pei Chuyan say this, they turned around and went out without hesitation.

Instead, Lin Ji was left there.

Lin Ji raised his head somewhat awkwardly, looked at his master, then looked at the backs of those people walking away, secretly cursing them in his heart.

Aren't we brothers? Why did they leave me and run away?

"You don't have to go, let them investigate, and you go help me investigate another matter." Pei Chuyan stepped forward and whispered a few words to Lin Ji.

Speaking of which, the Emperor Dali was quite open-minded.

The Dark Guards and Dragon Shadow Guards of the Great Chu State had been active in their capital for so long, but he was completely unaware.

Perhaps it was because he was busy doing the tasks assigned to him by the warlock during this period and he didn't care about these things.

And because of Pei Chuyan's words, he also began to have some doubts about the sorcerer.

Moreover, he had not expected that Pei Chuyan would investigate to this extent.

What's more, in his eyes, Pei Chuyan did not come.

What can the Fourth Prince, a prince whose hair hasn't even grown back yet, do?

Besides, even if they found out, so what? I am the most respected person in Dali Kingdom, what can they do to me?

After a busy day, when Pei Chuyan returned to the inn, His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince had already returned.

Naturally, he wanted to go in and pay his respects to His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, but the Fourth Prince pulled him aside with a mysterious look on his face.

"Today I heard something from King Yixuan." It must be said that his uncle treated him very well indeed, and it made the Fourth Prince feel the long-lost family affection.

In the palace, although the Crown Prince treated him very well, the Royal Concubine treated him very well, and even his father treated him well, he always treated them as the monarch and his subject.

It was different with King Ui Xuan. Perhaps because of his status as a prince, he felt that he could be on an equal footing with him. This made things much simpler for him, whether speaking or doing things.
