Butler Wu did not dare to completely deny it.

The main reason is that you can't be sure of the intentions of the person behind it.

What benefit does the other party bring to him by throwing such a mystery?

The city lord's wife thought for a moment and made a decision.

"In that case, let Yan'er lead the team to investigate."

"Also, ask Ling Tian to accompany you."

Ling Tian?

Butler Wu was startled for a moment.

"Madam, why do you need to take him with you?"

Ling Tian's level can only be said to be average, and in the entire border town, it is neither above nor below.

Butler Wu hesitated again and again, but couldn't help but speak.

"Madam, with all due respect, do you think too highly of this Ling Tian?"

"Why, do you think I've become easier to talk to in recent years and you dare to ask about me?"

The beautiful eyes of the city lord's wife flashed, and murderous intent suddenly appeared.

A chill ran down his back, and Butler Wu's face was as pale as paper, dripping with cold sweat.

"Don't dare."

"If you don't dare, just do your thing and don't ask about the rest."

With a cold snort, the murderous intention suddenly disappeared.

Butler Wu breathed a sigh of relief, feeling like he had just escaped from hell.

After dismissing Butler Wu, the city lord's wife went to see the city lord.

The city lord was lying on the ground, looking at the city lord's wife and giggling.

The city lord's wife sat down by herself, poured a cup of tea, and said lightly.

"You haven't been honest lately. Are you still unwilling to give in? Have you come up with any other ideas and plan to give it a try?"

"Hey hey hey"

"Steward Wu found a jade pendant in the library. Someone from the Yun family will contact you."

Not a question, but a statement.

The city lord was stunned for a moment, and soon started to giggle again.

"Hey hey hey"

The city lord's wife suddenly grabbed the city lord by his collar and brought her closer.

Looking at his stupid face, he said word by word.

"Don't think I don't know, you have one hour of waking time every day."

"I'm going to tell you one last time, you'd better not care about the Yun family's affairs."

"Otherwise, don't blame me for not missing our old friendship!"

Probably angry at the city lord's attitude, the city lord's wife threw him away with a look of disgust and turned around to leave.

Some people were aware of what happened back then, and some were not.

Those who knew the situation, including Butler Wu, believed that she usurped the throne because the city wanted to kill her and Yun Feiyan.

In fact, that's just an excuse.

What is involved behind it is a secret known to very few people.

Ling Tian was not surprised that he was asked to accompany him. It would be abnormal if the City Lord's Mansion really didn't react at all.

To his surprise, Yun Feiyan was asked to lead the team.

I don’t know what the city lord thinks.

That night.

He met the city lord.

Of course, he still didn't know that the crazy old man in front of him was the city lord.

The crazy old man held his hand with an anxious expression.

"Take me away!"

"As long as you can help me leave the City Lord's Mansion, I will promise you glory and wealth!"

Not to mention the glory and wealth, Ling Tian found this crazy old man quite interesting.

Putting aside whether the other party is really crazy or not, just escaping from the city lord's mansion is enough to arouse his interest.

He leaned on the couch, pretending to be indifferent.

"I stay in the City Lord's Mansion and enjoy the same glory and wealth. Why should I take the risk and take you away?"

"What do you know? This city lord's mansion is like a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, you"

Before the city lord finished speaking, his eyes suddenly became dull.

Within a moment, Butler Wu rushed over with his men.

The city lord was kidnapped without saying a word.

"I'm sorry, Master Ling, for frightening you."
