I want to make progress

Chapter 118 Follow the clues
Although he was eager to avenge his son, he also had to think about the living. The Liangyi Sect could not be touched, at least not on the surface.

"Dad, what should I do?"

After reading the letter, Meng Dongchen couldn't help but frown. The Yin-Yang Sect was indeed a very good partner in the past, but now it is a big trouble. He regretted why he didn't stop his father from cooperating with the Yin-Yang Sect.

"Ha~!"

Glancing at the letter, the Duke of the Protectorate sneered, his eyes full of contempt, "On paper, we can't touch them, but in this capital, we are not the only ones who have the ability to deal with them."

"Now the emperor is very wary of the Liangyi Sect, and there are so many people who want to make meritorious deeds."

As long as the news about the Liangyi Sect is leaked out, there will be no one to deal with them.

"That's right! I was blinded by one thing. Father, I will go and pass on the clues we have about the Liangyi Sect."

Meng Dongchen's eyes lit up and he instantly understood what his father meant. He was too eager to take revenge, but in fact the best way was to reap the benefits while sitting back and waiting.

"Do it secretly. The Liangyi Sect is not simple. Don't let them find out."

The Duke of Protectorate nodded, and did not forget to add one more reminder, that the Liangyi Sect had cooperated with them for many years, and the Liangyi Sect must have many handles that are unfavorable to them, so they could no longer exist.

"Put our people in there as well. If we find anything or anyone that is harmful to our mansion, we will destroy them!"

They are good partners when they are working together, but once they become enemies, they must be eradicated and the threat must be completely eliminated to ensure that the Duke of Huguo’s Mansion is worry-free!
"My child understands!"

Meng Dongchen nodded in understanding. Anyone who dared to threaten the existence of the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion and dared to kill him, the Duke of Protectorate, must not be allowed to stay!
Due to lack of trust and communication, Meng Xichen's death was successfully framed onto the Liangyi Sect. After all, all the Liangyi Sect members who took action in the Jiuchonglou that day were killed, and no one could return to the Liangyi Sect. Who knew what happened? The Liangyi Sect itself didn't know whether the person who killed Meng Xichen was one of theirs.

As for the Duke of the Guardian's Mansion, after receiving the definite conclusion from the Jingzhao Prefecture, even if the Liangyi Sect completely denied killing Meng Xichen, the people in the Duke of the Guardian's Mansion would not believe it and would only think that it was a sophistry of the Liangyi Sect.

Just like that, under the planning of Shu Yunfu and Gu Changting, the blame was firmly placed on the Liangyi Sect.

And the real murderer Shu Yun just disappeared in this incident, as if he had never appeared.

Naturally, the exposure she was worried about would not happen. She managed to survive this ordeal successfully!
Although Shu Yunfu was relieved, Gu Changting had to follow up on the matter. He must not let the Duke of Huguo's Mansion find out anything wrong and must not expose Fu'er.

Moreover, the incident of the Nine-story Tower made Gu Changting realize the horror of the Liangyi Sect. An organization without any fear, without any constraints, and daring to do anything, was too terrifying for both the imperial court and the people.

The Liangyi Sect must be eliminated. On this point, Gu Changting and the Duke of the Guard reached a consensus. However, even if they agreed, it did not mean that Gu Changting was relieved about the Duke of the Guard's Mansion. He sent secret guards to keep an eye on the Duke of the Guard's Mansion early in the morning.

In the study, Gu Changting sat in front of the chessboard, with the aroma of tea rising in the air. He held two chess pieces and set up a game full of murderous intent.

Listening to the official business reported by his subordinates, the chess pieces in his hand continued to fall slowly on the chessboard. He nodded or responded from time to time. He seemed leisurely, but in fact his brain was working frantically, handling all the official business in an orderly manner.

It was not until a person appeared quietly in the study that Gu Changting put down the chess piece in his hand, and his eyes finally showed some emotion.

Those were the secret guards he specially arranged to keep an eye on the Duke of Huguo's Mansion. As expected, the Liangyi Sect would not sit still when faced with such a serious crisis. Fu'er said that the Duke of Huguo's Mansion had cooperation with the Liangyi Sect, and keeping an eye on the Duke of Huguo's Mansion really paid off!
Both sides were very cautious, but the secret guards of the Duke of Yingzhou's Mansion were unmatched. Even the training methods of the royal secret guards were all offered by the Duke of Yingzhou's Mansion back then. No matter how cautious the people of the Yin-Yang Sect were, they were still found with traces. By following the clues, they found the hiding place of the Yin-Yang Sect members.

He never doubted the ability of the secret guards, but he was greatly shocked by the hiding place of those Liangyi Sect members. It was not some remote courtyard, nor a brothel where all kinds of people came and went, but the residence of an official appointed by the imperial court. And this official appointed by the imperial court was not some insignificant figure, but the residence of a doctor of the Ministry of Justice who held a lot of power.

Moreover, according to the report from the secret guards, Lord Zheng, the doctor of the Ministry of Justice, was not under any threat. Instead, he was very active in covering up for those people from the Liangyi Sect and seemed to be very respectful to them.

Those people from the Liangyi Sect lived in the mansion under the name of distant relatives from Lord Zhen Zheng's hometown, and they lived a very carefree and comfortable life.

This is simply ridiculous. The entire court is trying its best to wipe out the rebels of Liang Yi Sect, but a doctor of the Ministry of Justice is secretly protecting them.

No wonder despite such a comprehensive crackdown, the important members of the Liangyi Sect did not suffer any losses, and they even dared to plan the Nine-story Building incident. With this spy around, it would be strange if they could catch him.

In the past, I only thought that the Liangyi Sect was powerful, but now it seems that the person in power behind the Liangyi Sect is not simple either. As a doctor in the Ministry of Justice, he holds real power and has a promising future. As long as he works hard, it is only a matter of time before he gets promoted and gets rich. If he works hard, he may even be able to become a first-rank official in the court in a dozen years.

Such an official with a bright future is willing to work for the Liangyi Sect and is even quite respectful to those in the Liangyi Sect. There must be a big shot behind the Liangyi Sect manipulating it!
After realizing this, Gu Changting acted decisively and personally led people to Lord Zheng's residence. After all, it was the residence of an official in the court. If he didn't go there in person, the group of people under him might not be able to be controlled.

Moreover, anyone who could hide safely at this time must be an important figure in the Yin-Yang Sect. If we catch them, we may be able to find out who is controlling the Yin-Yang Sect behind the scenes.

He had a hunch that there must be a big fish behind the Liangyi Sect!
Gu Changting acted decisively and was capable. He led the team personally and naturally prevented anyone from escaping.

As he expected, he was indeed blocked from breaking into Lord Zheng's house to arrest someone. If Gu Changting had not revealed his identity, he would not even be able to enter the door.

"My lord!"

After stepping into the gate of Zheng Mansion, the yamen runners rushed in quickly and headed straight for the courtyard where the Liangyi Sect lived.
