Wang Yiyi led Chen Dusheng to the back room and handed him the key: "From now on, you and your aunt will live in this back room. Please take care of the shop's renovation."

Chen Dusheng accepted the keys with some emotion: "I've already rented a house."

It's understandable that he lives in the shop, but bringing his parents along is a bit inappropriate.

Wang Yiyi didn't force the issue; a person with good judgment always makes people feel more at ease.

After handing the matter over to Chen Dusheng, she didn't linger and went straight home.

Along the way, she didn't rush, but instead thought about the assassination.

Who would want her dead?

I thought about it all the way, but I still had no clue.

"Third Sister, are you alright?" As soon as they arrived home, Da Tou and Er Tou came to greet them.

Wang Yi was delighted and was about to speak when he saw Xie Yu's head pop out from behind him.

Her smile vanished, and she coldly retorted, "It's nothing. Luckily, my older sister went to great lengths for me."

If we're going to rely on Xie Yu, she'll die in prison.

Xie Yu touched his nose, feeling a little awkward. He had planned to make his move later, but Xie San came back and said that the person had been released, so he called Da Tou and Er Tou to come over together.

Er Tou, oblivious to the awkwardness between the two, kept saying, "This time, we're so grateful that General Xie sent someone. Whoever framed you, General Xie will definitely not let them get away with it."

Wang Yiyi glanced at Xie Yu with a mocking look and chuckled, "Is that so?"

Xie Yu replied somewhat guiltily, "Yes."

Wang Yi glanced at him but didn't say anything.

Even if Xie Yu is told that Li Xian'er did it, does he really think he can get justice for him?

Xie Yu also noticed Wang Yiyi's coldness, and was both angry and regretful. He regretted not letting Xie San make a move sooner, and was also angry at Wang Yiyi's attitude.

He has already taken the initiative to come over and lower his head, so why is Wang Yiyi still acting like this? Isn't he alright now?

Does he really just stand by and watch people die?

Thinking of this, his face turned cold: "Now that you see your sister is alright, it's time to go back to the barracks."

Mrs. Li still looked reluctant to leave: "Since you're in such a hurry, why don't you have a meal before you go?"

Xie Yu said with a serious expression, "No, it's already an exception that I was able to come out today."

Big Head and Second Head also looked at Xie Yu with reluctance. This was the first time they had been away from home for so long, and their home had just suffered a huge change. They really didn't want to leave.

Xie Yu did not strongly object, but simply looked at Wang Yiyi.

Wang Yiyi also wanted to ask Xie Yu about the clues to the assassination attempt, and since she hadn't seen her two brothers for a long time, she also asked them to stay longer: "Please allow us, brother and sister, to spend more time together, General Xie."

Seemingly waiting for these words, Xie Yu immediately changed his attitude: "This will not happen again."

Li immediately went to cook, overjoyed.

Wang Yi waited a while before finding a chance to speak with Xie Yu alone: ​​"Is there any progress on the assassination attempt outside Danzhou City?"

When it came to business, Xie Yu put his awkward thoughts to the back of his mind: "I carefully investigated the identities of that group of people. They were just ordinary mountain bandits. Now there is no way to verify their identities. However, the fact that they were able to ambush outside the city means that they must have received the news long ago."

Wang Yi's eyes lit up: "You mean someone leaked your whereabouts?"

Xie Yu nodded: "Going to the Northwest was a spur-of-the-moment decision, and not many people in the army knew about it, yet those people were able to set up an ambush. Presumably, we were exposed in Danzhou."

Wang Yiyi: "We didn't stay in Danzhou for long. Who has the ability to spot us as soon as we entered the city and arrange all this so quickly?"

"You mean the Prefect of Danzhou?"

Xie Yu was increasingly surprised as he thought about it. It was indeed possible. He had been investigating in the capital, but he had overlooked the governor of Danzhou.

However, he was not familiar with the governor of Danzhou. Who was he acting on orders from?

Wang Yiyi didn't know that she said this on purpose, hoping that Xie Yu would investigate the governor and find out if there was a real problem, so that Magistrate Li's marriage would fall through. Hearing Xie Yu say this, she nodded seriously.

Seeing Xie Yu's thoughtful expression, she rolled her eyes and said, "Young General Xie, you've helped me a lot. I'd like to invite you to have a meal at Silver Moon Restaurant."

She was about to open her shop, but if Magistrate Li maintained the same attitude, and with Li Xian'er interfering, it would be difficult for her to open the shop. She urgently needed to prove to Magistrate Li that her relationship with Xie Yu was very strong.

Xie Yu was somewhat surprised. Just a moment ago, he had clearly been extremely unfriendly to him, and even when talking about Danzhou, he was distant. Why was he now inviting him to dinner?

Could it be that she realized she had misunderstood him?

He felt the anger in his heart dissipate a lot, and immediately agreed: "Okay, you can set the date."

"Tomorrow."

To avoid any unforeseen complications.

"it is good."

Seeing that Xie Yu agreed, Wang Yiyi went to Li's side without hesitation.

Xie Yu felt a lump in her throat again. Wang Yiyi's unhesitating turn around gave the impression of someone who had already abandoned their lover.

It's not quite right to say it like that, but he inexplicably had a feeling of being abandoned.

After finishing his meal at the Wang family's house, he felt increasingly uneasy after returning home. He called Xie San over to ask him about it and learned that there had been an assassination attempt in prison.

"Why didn't you tell me something so important?" Xie Yu was furious.

No wonder he felt that Wang Yiyi was not only extremely cold to him today, but also seemed to blame him. She even took the initiative to ask him about the assassination attempt in Danzhou. It turns out that she felt that the assassination attempt was related to him.

Xie San immediately knelt on the ground: "I saw that Miss Wang was alright, so I didn't take it to heart."

He had wanted to report this matter for a long time, but the person who assassinated Miss Wang was General Xie. How could he explain it?

He was just a subordinate; his life was miserable.

Xie Yu kicked him: "Does it only count as a big deal when someone dies? Who did it?"

He hadn't held back his kick, and Xie San instantly felt a rush of blood to his throat. He didn't even dare to clutch his chest, quickly steadied himself, and knelt down again: "It's Li Xian'er."

I'm sorry, Li Xian'er.

You'll have to take the blame for whoever orchestrated this frame-up against Miss Wang.

"How dare she!" Xie Yu slammed her fist on the table in anger.

Xie San dared not reply.

"I heard that Magistrate Li and the Prefect of Danzhou are discussing marriage. Go and send a message to the Prefect," Xie Yu immediately ordered.

Xie San was about to leave when he called the man back, saying, "Never mind."

After venting his anger, he calmed down. Without evidence, he couldn't do anything to a county magistrate, and besides, he didn't want to offend the governor over this matter.

Although Wang Yiyi was able to ride a fine horse, his status was still too low compared to that of a prefect.

She tapped the table lightly and said, "Go and shave Li Xian'er's head so she won't come out and cause trouble for a while."

Xie San couldn't help but widen his eyes, and finally said yes.

The way our master takes revenge is truly extraordinary.
