Chapter 904: The clues are interrupted

She froze in place for a moment, and her mind began to replay the events of the past few days. Why would someone from the Tianji Sect harm her fourth senior brother?

Could it be that Lu Jingming disappeared because of this reason?

Or was he deceiving himself from the very beginning?

Maybe he was not a member of the Tianji Sect, but because he wanted to use his spiritual power to enter this ancient secret realm, he made up such a lie to deceive himself.

But if it's a lie, why give up when you're about to succeed?

Lu Xingwan felt as if the world was spinning around him for a moment.

She knew that there must be a deeper meaning behind this, but for the moment, she couldn't figure it out.

Her mind was in a mess and she stood there completely. The little beggar next to her could clearly see the astonishment in her eyes.

The old marquis behind her did not say anything when he saw her like this, but just looked at her strange movements in confusion.

Lu Xingwan stood up slowly. Perhaps her legs were numb from squatting for too long, or perhaps it was because she was still dazed by what she had heard today. So at this moment, she could hardly stand steadily and was about to fall down.

Fortunately, the old marquis at the side supported her in time. When she fell into the warm palm of her grandfather, Lu Xingwan felt a little more at ease. She breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at her grandfather behind her.

The smile on her lips was really ugly.

The old marquis knew that Wanwan must have discovered something, which was why she acted like this.

But he also knew that Wanwan was a child who didn't like to talk much.

He only said one sentence: "Wanwan, if there is anything you need grandpa to do, just tell me."

Grandfather will do his best to help you realize your wish.

But he didn't say the last word.

He naturally didn't want to worry every night.

Wanwan nodded without saying anything else. Just as she was about to turn around and leave, she suddenly turned her head to look at the little beggar behind her.

"Did he say anything else? Which direction did he go?"

The little beggar shook his head, knowing that what he said today might not be of any help to her, so he felt a little lost.

Lu Xingwan smiled at him, but there was a hint of paleness in her smile.

"Thank you for what happened today. You must live a good life in the future."

She could sense from the little beggar's words and actions that he was not a simple person. Perhaps it could be said that he had been educated in the past.

Maybe, the family has fallen into poverty.

But these are not what Wanwan can take care of now. She turned her head and looked at her grandfather behind her.

Before Wanwan opened her mouth, the old marquis understood what she meant and nodded to her: "Now that you have nothing else to ask, I will take him out of the secret room."

"It just so happens that your second brother needs a book boy, so let him follow and serve you!"

No matter what, this little beggar risked his life to help Wanwan and the Dingguo Marquisate, so he would not send him back to the street to become a homeless person.

The most important thing is that this little beggar looked like an educated person. He should be from a wealthy family, but his family fell into poverty, causing him to become homeless.

And judging from his words and behavior just now, he is a well-educated person. I think he will not disappoint the second brother.

After leaving the secret room, the old marquis called on the people around him to take care of the little beggar.

For a moment, the grandfather and grandson looked at each other in the old marquis' study, but they were not embarrassed, just thoughtful.

The search for the fourth brother seemed to have been completely interrupted here.

For a moment, Wanwan was a little confused. She didn't know where to go next.

Now Sister Qionghua said that there is no problem with Xuantian Sect, so there is no need for me to go back. So what should I do next?

Let's go back to this small fishing village and see what the problem is with the village chief. Then what?

Wanwan never thought that one day, such a problem would fall upon her. In the past, she had always been a person who lived a life of mediocrity.

Although I was able to follow my brothers to the mortal world to do some tasks later, but...

But at that time, she was just following orders, but what about now?

Now, not only does she have to make all the decisions on her own, she also has no idea what to do next.

As for Xia Ning, he hurried to Yong'an County the day he received the imperial edict from His Majesty. He had been to Yong'an County before, so he was familiar with the surrounding environment and the journey was smooth.

The only difference is that now it may be for the peace of Yong'an County, or it may be for the peace of the Great Chu State.

This Marquis Dingguo established checkpoints on all the roads leading to Yong'an County and the Great Chu State, with officers and soldiers stationed at each checkpoint.

This point was raised by Song Qingyan.

Although the world is peaceful now, Song Qingyan has always felt a little uneasy since she came back from the world of immortal cultivation, so she discussed the matter with her brother.

So this level was set up.

The purpose is to hope that if there is a real crisis, Yong'an County can be separated from the Great Chu State.

Although she is now in Yong'an County, and the people of Yong'an County have gradually submitted to the Great Chu Kingdom, in her eyes, she always feels that the Great Chu Kingdom is more important.

However, now that she has helped Wanwan to govern Yong'an County, if anything happens to the people of Yong'an County, she will certainly feel obligated to protect them and stand by them.

So when Xia Ning arrived at the border of Yong'an County, the first person he met was Song Zhuo.

"When will Deputy General Song plan to return to the capital?" Now everyone in the capital knows that Song Zhuo, the eldest grandson of the Song family, is about to be engaged to Guo Ping's daughter Guo Yueshao.

And it was precisely because of this reason that His Majesty finally relented and prepared to transfer Guo Ping back to the capital.

It seems that the Guo family is already on the road.

I heard that Miss Guo also moved her business to the capital. She is really capable.

No one could have imagined that the young lady of the Guo family, who used to stay at home in the capital, has now become such a powerful businesswoman.

She is also a businesswoman who can provide livelihoods for women all over the world. She is truly admirable.

If she was just seeking wealth, that would be understandable, but her current state of mind is certainly higher than seeking wealth.

And he also believed that the young master of the Song family and the young lady of the Guo family were a perfect match.

When Song Zhuo saw that it was Xia Ning who came, he was naturally polite. After all, it was Xia Ning who handled affairs in Yong'an County in the past, and he and Xia Ning had had a lot of contact.

Furthermore, I have heard a lot about Xia Ning in the past, and I have great respect for this Lord Xia.

"Master Xia," Song Zhuo stepped forward and bowed respectfully, "I'm afraid it will take some time for me to return to the capital. The Western Camp is very busy right now."
