Just as they were about to succeed, a cold light flew in from the sky, and the sword energy exploded into a wave of air, which knocked them flying backwards.

The entire courtroom shook, and the plaque with the words "Gong Ming Lian Wei" inscribed on it shook, and then fell next to a light blue sword and broke into two pieces.

The sword was inserted at an angle, and then a slender white hand grasped it and put it back into the sheath.

The owner of the hand grabbed Fang Xiwen, looked around with sharp eyes, and then showed him a bright smile: "Okay, let's go home."

"Ah."

Fang Qingxiao had been waiting here early in the morning, ready to pick them up.

If he hadn't warned them in advance, those people who swung the sticks would have died, with one sword in the throat.

"Old Liu, I'll accept your 'gift'." Fang Xiwen shook the package in his hand, and Liu Zhuo was furious.

"No, you can't take it away--Ah!!"

With a whoosh, a wisp of sword energy slashed in front of Liu Zhuo's toes, not only forcing him to pause, but also cutting off all thoughts of him stopping on the road.

This is Fairy Ling Jian.

Although he was a pawn of the Yang Party, he accepted a person from the magic world who specialized in doing dirty work. After killing the target, he could be automatically locked by the magic killing array in the gods and turned into ashes, just in time to erase the evidence.

But for Fang Qingxiao, don't even think about hurting her unless you go outside.

"It's over. How should I explain this to Xiao Taifu..."

When the crowd dispersed, Liu Zhuo sat down dejectedly in his seat, his eyes becoming empty.

~~

Before going back, Fang Xiwen went to inspect his "working environment".

As the chief clerk of the Dali Temple in the future, he had met many people from the Six Gates, including the Inspector Doctor "Liu Xiwang".

Unlike ordinary Beijing officials, this man had rough, dark skin under his official robes, and his face was weathered, making him look like a fisherman who often went out to sea.

The two shook hands and smiled sincerely at each other.

When the two returned to Fang's house, it was already dusk and two lanterns had been hung in front of the door.

The long-faced butler who usually greeted people at the door was gone, replaced by a pretty and delicate maid.

Seeing the brother and sister coming back, Xiaodie hurried forward, "Master, something bad has happened!"

"Why, it went wrong?"

Because he knew that there was a traitor in the Fang Mansion, he arranged for Xiaodie to pretend to be a servant long before she was taken away. On the surface, she was working in the mansion, but secretly she was observing who was tipping off the outside world.

Xiaodie did a good job. After he was taken away, she stayed in the inner and outer houses for a while, and in less than half a day she drew up a list of who was most suspicious and what their symptoms were, from light to heavy.

"Xiao Die, could it be that you are also helping your young lady when she is handling official business?" Fang Xiwen seemed very surprised. Although he knew that this girl was capable, he didn't expect her to be so useful.

"She called me here because she knew the young master was going to be ostracized... Oh, this isn't the right time!"

Xiaodie went around to the back and pushed him into the Fang Mansion on his back, looking hurried.

~~

Inner house.

"What have you done to Uncle Liang!!" This was Fang Ziqing's anxious roar.

In the huge courtyard, a woman in a black robe and cloak was confronting a large group of people.

The focus of the argument was obviously the long-faced butler who was kneeling on the ground. He looked pale, with cold sweat on his forehead and his body trembling.

"Nothing, just asked him some questions."

The woman in the cloak sat on the edge of the flower bed, legs crossed, her index finger hooked around a small purple knife with a ring and spinning it, her voice sounding sinister.

"Bullshit! You must have used some magic to force Uncle Liang. Who are you?" "Shut up."

Without any movement, she just hooked her finger and the knife flew out like lightning, cutting off a tuft of Fang Ziqing's hair.

Feeling the breath of death, the latter broke out in a cold sweat, "You, you..."

With a pull, the knife returned to Li Muyu's hand. She continued to turn a few circles and looked at the kneeling housekeeper: "This guy is a traitor. He used the money of the Fang Mansion to support outsiders and bribed the constable to frame his own master.

For his infidelity alone, I was merciful not to kill him on the spot."

Ding!

The dagger was stuck between the butler's fingers, and it was only a millimeter away from cutting off his entire hand. Seeing this, Liang Jing was sweating profusely and said hurriedly: "It's unfair, I didn't do such a thing at all, I said this to save my life!"

"Uncle Liang, I believe you." Fang Ziqing naturally wanted to protect her confidant, and immediately glared at him: "Besides, even if he did something wrong, it is not your turn to jump out and judge!

Who are you? "

Li Muyu did not answer.

Seeing so many people behind him, Liang Jing suddenly felt confident again, "Miss Fifth, this person might be an assassin who sneaked into the Fang Mansion, or he might be the shadow servant of the Third Young Master.

But no matter what, it’s not her turn—” “Do you think I want to get involved in ‘your’ Fang family’s affairs!”

In an instant, the oppressive feeling on Li Muyu spread like smoke, and his aura was like a snarling octopus, causing the infected flowers around him to wither.

"Magic skills! She is indeed an assassin--" "Bullshit, she is my person!"

A loud shout was heard, and the young man in brocade clothes walked in and stood in front of Li Muyu.

Seeing him intact, almost everyone was stunned.

The housekeeper looked as if he had seen a ghost. He subconsciously glanced at Fang Xiwen's room and his face turned pale. Fang Ziqing's "Third brother" was stuck in his throat and his eyes were motionless.

Why did he come back so soon?

Da da da.

Before Fang Xiwen spoke, the inner house was so quiet that only the sound of his footsteps could be heard.

"Xiwen."

Amid many frozen gazes, the mysterious cloaked woman stood up and flashed behind him like a phantom.

"Is she the backup plan left by the Third Young Master?"

Because she had been keeping her head down, her face only flashed by when she moved, giving many people a familiar feeling.

"It's quite a big fuss, guys." Looking around, Fang Xiwen seemed to be joking.

But because of the black and white evil spirits behind him, no one present dared to respond.

He walked up to the long-faced butler and looked down at him: "If my shadow servant can't interrogate you, what if it's me?"

The handsome face was so close to him, but Liang Jing was speechless and could only shake his head.

"Give me an answer?!"

A kick to the knee made the butler fall to his knees with a thud, his whole body on all fours.

Before he could get up, a gorgeous folding fan fell to the ground, causing his pupils to shrink.

This is what he stole this morning and gave to the Six Gates during the parade. It is one of the forged evidence.

It should have served as evidence, putting the evil young man in jail and giving Miss Five time to act...but why?

How did it end up in his hands!

"I just left and you dared to break into my room and steal things," Fang Xiwen grabbed his collar and smiled coldly: "You'd better hand it over to an outsider to frame me.

Are you the butler of the Fang Mansion, or someone else's hidden agent? ! "

"I, no, it's not..."

"If my father knew about this, would he still keep you? You bastard!"

boom!

As soon as he let go, Liang Jing fell to the ground in a daze, motionless.

Even Fang Ziqing, who wanted to confront him, became quiet, with her mouth slightly open. She finally realized the seriousness of the matter.

Snapped!

Suddenly, the sound of crisp slapping was heard.

The housekeeper slapped his face vigorously, tears streaming down his face, and he burst into tears: "Third Young Master! I know I was wrong, it was all because of my ignorance!

I have a son who is a few years younger than the master. In order for him to join a good sect and have a bright future, I made a deal with those people.

Please don't tell the master, I know I was wrong! ! "

Looking at his expression coldly, Fang Xiwen nodded secretly, thinking that the credibility should be about 70%.

The power of the Yang family was too great. In the decades after the Wang family withdrew, they had managed so many relationships. Their network of contacts spread all over the world like a spider web, and they could always find ways to meet the needs of different people.

However, although the butler told the truth, there is still a problem:

"Who introduced you? Tell me."

Fang Xiwen asked in front of so many people. Liang Jing froze.

This is forcing him to take a stand.

Without hesitation, Liang Jing knelt deeply on the ground and said, "Master San, it was Miss Wu who brought people into the mansion last night and told me all these things."

Hearing this, Fang Ziqing widened her eyes and said in disbelief: "Uncle Liang, I treat you so well..."

Fang Xiwen almost laughed out loud.

Well, the little girl's reaction to being backstabbed was quite innocent.

If the old housekeeper does not agree to him now and reports it to Fang Tianyu, he will be dead. After all, his behavior is too bad and it will be difficult to make an example of him without severe punishment. The only way for him to survive now is for Fang Xiwen to forgive him on her own initiative.

"You exposed me, so you don't believe me and tell Uncle Fang, Liang Jing!!"

Seeing this, the butler's face turned pale, his lips trembled, and he turned to look at Fang Xiwen.

Looking at his lifeline.

So, the latter showed a gentle smile on his face, bent down to help him up, and brushed off the dust on his clothes: "Uncle Liang, what are you kneeling for? The ground is cold, why don't you get up quickly."

"Yes, thank you, Third Young Master."

Seeing this, the Fang sisters couldn't help but look at each other and rolled their eyes at each other.

After helping the old housekeeper up, he looked at Fang Ziqing and angrily said, "Do you still have a conscience? Uncle Liang just made a small mistake, and you want to report it to my father and kill him?
