Korean government.

Front yard study.

"Father, how come you can trust anyone's words?"

"Yes, although Hu Fei is now famous all over the world and has won the trust of His Majesty, the Crown Prince and King Yan, after all, he was once the biggest dandy in the capital. He would inevitably make nonsense and boast. How can you believe what he says?

?”

Li Qi looked at his father, smiled bitterly, shook his head and said.

"No, you don't know him. When he said it, I didn't believe it at first, but His Highness the Crown Prince was also here at the time. It's impossible for him to talk nonsense in front of His Highness the Crown Prince just for the sake of a quick talk."

"Moreover, I have confirmed again and again that what he said is true, and even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has no doubts about his fortune-telling skills. There is no way it is false."

Li Shanchang looked at his son and said extremely seriously.

After listening to his father's words, Li Qi's expression also changed a little. He felt that what his father said was reasonable. No matter how courageous Hu Fei was, he would not dare to talk nonsense in front of the prince.

"Then he didn't tell you who this villain is?"

Li Qi hesitated for a moment and asked slowly.

"No, he only said that this person is a slave, but his status in the house is not low, and he didn't say much else."

Li Shanchang recalled it and said in a deep voice.

"Whether he knows how to read faces or not, whether this is true or not, he must know something else, but he just didn't tell his father clearly."

Li Qi thought for a moment and said thoughtfully.

"No matter what, this matter must be investigated carefully, otherwise I will not be able to sleep at night."

Li Shanchang looked at his son and said seriously.

Given his position in the court, if it was as serious as Hu Fei said, it would definitely be a catastrophe, and he did not dare to take it lightly.

"I understand, father, I will investigate it myself."

Li Qi agreed and said slowly.

"Tell me, could it be Lu..."

Li Shanchang glanced at the direction of the door and tentatively said a last name.

Hearing this, Li Qi hurriedly raised his hand to stop him, and also looked at the door cautiously.

"It's better not to say anything until the truth is found out. Be careful that walls have ears."

Li Qi lowered his voice and whispered a warning.

Li Shanchang nodded and said nothing.

After Li Qi assured his father, he left the study and returned to his residence in the backyard.

Li Shanchang also took a breath of relief and ordered his servants to get some food. After eating hastily, he returned to the room and planned to rest.

But that night, he had almost no sleep at all.

...

Hu Mansion.

Linglong Court.

Over there, Li Shan couldn't sleep for a long night, but here, Hu Fei slept soundly, having settled a worry, and naturally felt a lot more relaxed.

In fact, the reason why he helped Li Shanchang find out the mole was because the villain he was talking about revealed that Li Shanchang and Hu Weiyong had close contacts and planned to join forces to conspire against each other shortly after the Hu Weiyong case broke out.

But most of them were fabricated. It was impossible for Hu Weiyong to betray Zhu Yuanzhang, let alone Li Shanchang. He was an old man who had followed Zhu Yuanzhang in many battles and experienced life and death.

Just like when he helped Lu Zhongheng before, he just didn't want innocent people to die in vain.

Since we want to protect Hu Weiyong, we have to protect these people too, so as not to cause trouble in the future.

Keeping those traitors alive is always a fuse, and sooner or later disaster will arise.

Just when Hu Fei was sleeping soundly, a figure slipped into the room silently and slowly came to his bed.

However, Hu Fei was sleeping soundly at this time and did not notice at all.

Immediately afterwards, the figure shook his head slightly and reached out to touch Hu Fei's arm! Then he bent two fingers and flicked Hu Fei's elbow joint!

Hu Fei, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly felt a sharp pain in his arm. He groaned and opened his eyes drowsily. Then he vaguely saw a dark figure standing in front of the bed!

"who?!"

Hu Fei was startled, exclaimed, grabbed the golden dragon dagger placed on the bedside, quickly pulled it out, and swung it at the man!

But before he could swing it out completely, the man had already struck out like lightning. As a bright light flashed, there was already a short knife in his hand, which was pressed against Hu Fei's neck in the blink of an eye!

The moment the tip of the knife pressed against his throat, Hu Fei was shocked, stopped all his movements, and looked at the dark figure who suddenly broke into his room with a pale face!

He wanted to shout, but the tip of the knife was already on his throat. As long as he made a sound, the short knife might kill him at any time!

What surprised him was that Chundie and Pei Jie didn't show up. Could it be that they didn't even notice someone sneaking in?

"You are too careless, and you are still too slow to move!"

At this moment, the man standing in front of the bed suddenly spoke.

Hearing this voice, Hu Fei finally breathed a sigh of relief, pushed away the short knife pressed against his throat, and sat up with gritted teeth.

The dark figure that suddenly broke in was none other than Xiao An.

"Are you okay? How fun is it in the middle of the night?!"

Hu Fei sat on the bed, looked at Xiao An who had put away the dagger, and asked fiercely.

"If it weren't me today, but the killer who really came to assassinate you, you wouldn't be able to speak now."

Xiao An looked at Hu Fei and said seriously.

"Master, what do I feed you for?! As long as you are here, who can hurt me?! Besides, there are Pei Jie and Chun Die, unless you are all just doing it!"

"Recognize your identity, don't think that you can do whatever you want just because you saved me outside the city last time!"

Hu Fei glared at Xiao An and said angrily.

He finally knew that Pei Jie and Chun Die had not appeared until now.

"What if we are all restrained? There is a world outside the sky, and there are people outside the world. If someone wants to kill you, they will definitely try their best to kill you. If that day comes, can you handle it alone?"

"Master, don't you understand yet? This road is not that easy to walk. There will be many more dangerous times in the future than what we encountered outside the city that day. Not every time I will be able to appear in time."

"After returning to Beijing, will you still train as hard every night as you did when you were in the city guard army?"

Xiao An looked at Hu Fei and said seriously.

After listening to Xiao An's words, Hu Fei frowned and was speechless.

Indeed, since he came back, he has slacked off and has not practiced again.

"Just in case, from now on, you need to practice every day so that you can escape unscathed the next time you encounter such an assassination."

Xiao An looked at Hu Fei and said seriously.

Hu Fei sighed helplessly and started to get dressed.

Xiao An was right. The path he chose was doomed to be full of dangers. If he was not careful, he would be doomed. If he did not have the ability to protect himself, it would be difficult to reach the end.

So from today on, Hu Fei began to train hard every night as he did when he was in the city guard army, not to become a master who could beat ten with one, but just to be able to protect himself in the future.

If you can't fight, you can at least escape.

...

Early the next morning.

Korean government.

Li Shanchang, who hadn't slept much all night, stood in the courtyard, frowning slightly as he watched the busy servants of the mansion walking back and forth from him.

Everyone he sees now feels like a villain, especially when he sees the butler Lu Zhongqian, he always feels that Lu Zhongqian's whole body is full of secrets.

At this moment, Lawrence Lu slowly walked over from a distance.

"Sir, breakfast is ready. It's time to eat."

Lawrence Lu walked closer, bowed respectfully, and said slowly.

"knew!"

Li Shanchang looked at Lu Zhongqian and agreed in a deep voice.

Lu Zhongqian lowered his head and did not dare to look at Li Shanchang, because he always felt that since the master came back yesterday, something seemed to be wrong with everyone and it was always uncertain.

Li Shanchang hesitated for a while, said nothing, and walked towards the main hall with his hands behind his back.

Lawrence Lu followed behind without saying a word, cautiously all the way.

After breakfast, Li Shanchang returned to his study, rarely leaving the house.

Everyone in the house seems to have noticed that the master is hiding something in his heart. I am afraid that something will happen to the house soon, and it will be a big deal.

At nearly noon, Li Qi finally came to the study. In order to help his father investigate clearly, he also took sick leave today and did not go to the household department.

When Li Shanchang saw his son quietly walking into the study with a book in his arms, he couldn't help but feel nervous...
