The Empress Kneels in Her Palace to Admit Her Mistakes After Slaying Her Ways in the Female-Oriented

This caused a surge of emotions within Ren Tianye.

His first thought was that this opera troupe was organized by the Tongxin Alliance and Liu Ruyan. Even if it wasn't the Tongxin Alliance or Liu Ruyan, it was definitely related to Liu Ruyan.

Yes, sportswear...

When Ren Tianye was in Yunjing, he carefully examined Bai Li, Bai Zixuan and others, and had a general understanding of Liu Ruyan.

Based on his judgment, Liu Ruyan should have transmigrated to this world about twenty years ago.

In the past twenty years, Liu Ruyan has somehow managed to develop firearms, and now... she can even make sportswear?

This thing is packed with technology!

However, when Ren Tianye looked closely, he found it was a false alarm.

The man and woman in the opera troupe in front of him were both wearing sportswear, but the material was different from the sportswear Ren Tianye knew.

"It's made from materials from this era and modified, but at first glance, it looks like modern sportswear."

Ren Tianye was relieved.

Because everyone is obsessed with romance, he is not afraid of Liu Ruyan, but if Liu Ruyan really creates a system for him, he will have a big headache.

However, while Ren Tianye relaxed, Su Jin and the others remained on high alert.

The Duke arrived, but instead witnessed this scene. The mission hadn't been completed properly, and now the Duke had caught them red-handed.

Su Jin, Xu Xia, and the others broke out in a cold sweat.

Xie Changfeng drew his sword and was about to charge forward.

But Ren Tianye stopped him.

"Wait a moment."

Ren Tianye looked at the opera troupe: "Listen to what they're singing."

When Ren Tianye gave the order, no one dared to disobey. However, the two men and women in the opera troupe were not actually performing.

The two people... are having a conversation.

More accurately, it's a conversation between intimate men and women.

The girl spoke first, tilting her head. Her fair neck was visible beneath her pink tracksuit, and her pretty face made her quite adorable.

"Baby..." she asked the man before her, "Will you always love me?"

The boy answered without hesitation, "Yes!"

When the boy spoke, everyone present, including Ren Tianye, was somewhat surprised.

This man...

He bears a striking resemblance to Ren Tianye!

It seems this is a theatrical troupe that specifically sought out this person, carefully trained him, and then made him look remarkably like Ren Tianye after he was made up.

"So this is someone pretending to be the Duke, huh? Looks like they're trying to slander him..."

Xie Changfeng reacted quickly and immediately noticed the clue.

Su Jin also holds the same view.

My instinct was to stop the opera troupe, lest they continue to tarnish the Duke's reputation.

However, when she looked at Ren Tianye, she saw a hint of surprise in his eyes, and he didn't seem to be stopping her, so she didn't dare to make a decision on her own.

At that moment, on the extremely simple and even rudimentary stage set up by the opera troupe, the girl tilted her head and asked a second question.

"Can you stay faithful for the rest of your life?"

The boy immediately replied, "Yes!"

"Then can you always spoil me?"

"able!"

"Then will you die for me?"

"able!"

"Speak louder!"

"Yes!" the boy shouted loudly.

This posture made everyone feel that he resembled the Duke even more, especially his demeanor, which showed that he had inherited some of the Duke's true qualities.

He's practically another version of the Duke.

"Then can you..." the girl asked again, "transfer 100,000 yuan to me?"

The word "transfer" was not understood by the crowd, but since money was mentioned, it was most likely that the person was asking the boy who resembled the Duke for money.

Based on past habits, everyone would subconsciously assume that the boy would give it.

Unexpectedly, the boy immediately exclaimed, "Holy crap, that won't do!"

"I really do have 100,000 yuan!"

The girl screamed, "You don't love me at all! You won't even give me two hundred yuan! You just want to sleep with me!"

"How could that be, baby? If I didn't love you, I wouldn't stop you from going to nightclubs; I'd respect you that much!"

"But my best friend said that if someone doesn't spend money on you, it means they don't love you. If you don't love me, then let's break up."

"Okay!" The boy agreed without hesitation, stood up, and made a gesture as if to push open the door and leave.

With that, the opera troupe finished performing the main plot, and the girl gave a final summary.

"How can a man who's a martial arts champion for years not even give you this little bit of money be considered to love you?"

"And this man is, is..."

The girl couldn't continue speaking, sweat beaded on her forehead, and then she knelt down with a "plop," while the boy and the entire opera troupe also knelt down.

At this moment, Ren Tianye came to his senses, first taking a deep look at the man and woman, and then giving Wang Ming a look.

Wang Ming understood and immediately sent men to arrest them.

After the opera troupe members were arrested this time, no one caused any more trouble, and the scene returned to normal.

Ren Tianye, mounted on his chestnut horse, stood before the crowd and, without further ado, commanded, "Burn down the Hongluan Wenyuan Pavilion!"

"yes!"

Xu Xia agreed and proceeded according to the plan.

Before long, flames surged and the fire raged. The Hongluan Wenyuan Pavilion, which had stood in Huai'an City for ten years, was gradually reduced to ashes under the control of the government.

The crowd wasn't greatly affected by the earlier chaos; most were cheering and jumping for joy.

The city of Huai'an is spared a great scourge without the Hongluan Wenyuan Pavilion!

Meanwhile, in the mansion, Ren Tianye sat behind his desk, listening to Su Jin's report.

"Lord Duke, we have investigated and found out that those who suddenly ran out to cause trouble today were all tenant farmers from Huai'an City. Their lives and livelihoods were in the hands of others, and they had no choice but to obey orders."

"The same goes for opera troupes."

"They were bought long ago, and they even signed indentured servitude contracts. They were forced to do this."

"Some even used the lives of their loved ones as leverage."

"This shows that this was an organized and premeditated operation, with a similar objective to that of the Love Mutual Aid Alliance, and with an additional element: it was likely... to disgust our Demon Suppression Division!"

Su Jin said the Demon Suppression Division was disgusting, but she didn't tell the truth that she was disgusting Ren Tianye. However, Ren Tianye understood what she meant.

He countered with, "Have you found out who's behind this?"

"We've found out," Su Jin said. "It's Liu Aijiu, the head of the Liu family. He's not only a well-known bookseller in Huai'an City, but his business also extends throughout Yunjing."

"He seems to have met the Grand Master of the Tongxin Alliance and was deeply influenced by him. He firmly believes in the supremacy of love and has always been the biggest supporter of the Hongluan Wenyuan Pavilion. He has invested an unknown amount of money in the Hongluan Wenyuan Pavilion."

"He also repeatedly proclaimed this at the Hongluan Wenyuan Pavilion, personally taking the stage to tell the story, bewitching the people of Huai'an City, saying that as long as they believed in love, their wives would be as beautiful as flowers, their husbands would be gentle and talented, they would have a house, they would have a job..."

"I have verified this with Lord Xu Xia, and I have also questioned those in the Love Mutual Aid Alliance who are still in prison. This is the general consensus."

"It should be correct!"

"However, he did not show up when the Huai'an City Love Mutual Aid Alliance caused trouble this time, so they did not target him. I did not expect him to be so bold."

"It's all due to our incompetence, Your Highness! Please blame us!"
