Wei Wei had no choice but to go and see for herself alone.
The inspector's arrival was triggered by the same incident from last time.
Prefect Liu was not afraid of anything else, but he was somewhat wary of Wei Wei, a seemingly gentle but actually difficult person to please.
They met in the grand four-courtyard house behind the prefect's residence.
Although the furnishings in the Meng residence were quite nice, they could not compare to those in the prefect's residence.
After all, merchants are just ordinary people, and there are many things that they cannot openly display or use.
But the government is different.
