"Why is he here? They shouldn't be short of money, right?"
Ye Yuan stood in the wind and sand, and his body was struck by the sand grains, and even his eyeballs were not missed.
However, the three people who appeared in front of the inn caught his attention immediately.
Waiting until night, Ye Yuan suddenly appeared on the roof of the inn without anyone noticing, taking advantage of the sound of howling ghosts and wolves.
He listened to the conversations of the newcomers in the room below him.
At this time, a rich male voice asked in confusion.
"Haitang, is our Dragon Protection Villa short of money?"
Shangguan Haitang said without thinking.
"Lack of money, very short of money."
At this time, Guihai Yidao remembered Ye Yuan's reminder and what he had observed during this period, and said with meaning.
"Isn't that right? Hulong Villa... has funding from the imperial court and its own industry, and a lot of this information is produced. How could it be so short of money?"
If Guihai Yida hadn't mentioned it, Shangguan Haitang wouldn't have realized this yet.
However, as the one closest to God Marquis Tietan among the three adopted children, she did not want to think too much and took the initiative to defend Marquis Tietan.
"My adoptive father trained us, and what kind of spies we have to collect intelligence. Doing these things costs a lot of money."
Duan Tianya did not think deeply and nodded in agreement with this statement.
Only Guihai Yida was a little disappointed to see the two of them like this.
After Ye Yuan's advice, he had some very bad feelings about the situation at Hulong Villa.
For this reason, although everything was going as usual on the surface, he secretly paid more attention to everything at Hulong Villa.
That's how he discovered the hidden problem of Hulong Villa.
For example, in the eyes of most people in Hulong Villa, there are only divine princes, no court, and no emperor.
In other words, they only obeyed the orders of Lord Tie Dan. Even if Lord Tie Dan asked them to commit suicide, there would be no problem.
This is terrible.
These people are no different from dead soldiers.
And who are the people who support the dead?
The most famous one is the Three Horses Trough...Sima Yi!
Thinking of this, Gui Hai Yi Dao felt that a thick layer of haze shrouded his heart, and he couldn't get rid of it.
Not only that, but there was something wrong with the finances of Hulong Villa. Although he did not investigate in detail, he still found that a large amount of funds were unaccounted for.
Also, Hulong Villa is most famous for its intelligence system.
There's nothing wrong if you don't think deeply about it, but once you put aside the superficial persona of the iron gall god.
The intelligence contains a lot of fatal clues about important court officials...
Putting these together, it is enough to doubt the ulterior motives of Lord Tietan, and it has even reached the point of being almost certain.
But all this made Gui Hai Yida worried.
In fact, he felt worried, but it wasn't for himself.
After all, although he is the adopted son of the iron-courage god Hou, the two of them are not too close, and he can leave Hulong Villa at any time.
However, Shangguan Haitang is different.
Back then, Shangguan Haitang's family was wiped out because of a batch of fictitious gold.
Shangguan Haitang was just a little girl at the time, and she had to pretend to be a dead body for several days until Lord Iron Dan killed the enemy and rescued her.
Therefore, Shenhou Tiedan is her savior, her adoptive father, and the father she truly recognizes in her heart.
Although, like Duan Tianya and Guihai Yidao, she was taught by Lord Tidan to be loyal and patriotic since childhood.
However, with such a deep personal relationship between them, it was impossible for her to betray Lord Tidan Shenhou.
Guihai Yidao also knew this very well.
Therefore, he never mentioned anything strange about Hulong Villa during his investigation.
This time it was just a vague mention, I hope Shangguan Haitang will pay attention.
In fact, he didn't want Shangguan Haitang to suffer, but he had recently felt... that something was strange about Tiedan Shenhou.
Therefore, he hoped that Shangguan Haitang and Duan Tianya would be mentally prepared when the truth was revealed.
Guihai Yidao returned to his room with a troubled expression. After opening the door, he was surprised to find an acquaintance sitting at the table in the room.
He quickly closed the door and asked with a complicated expression.
"Why are you here?"
Seeing his expression, Ye Yuan knew that he already knew his identity, so he said.
"Yidao, you know my identity and you don't want to see me?"
Gui Hai Yi Dao sat across from Ye Yuan, feeling very complicated.
"I really didn't expect that you are actually the governor of the West Factory... Yuhuatian!"
Ye Yuan said with a smile.
"It's also thanks to Yang Yuxuan's military talisman, otherwise how could I have gone from being the supervisor of Shangshan to becoming the admiral of the West Factory."
Guihai Yida suddenly realized it and said.
"Did you give that military talisman to the emperor?"
If the military talisman was in the hands of the emperor, the knot in Gui Hai Yi Dao's heart would be lifted.
Ye Yuan guessed that Gui Hai Yi Dao thought he had taken the weapon talisman as his own, so he glanced at him helplessly and said.
"Otherwise, what's the use of holding my military talisman."
Guihai Yidao realized that he had misunderstood, felt guilty, and said sarcastically.
"That's true."
Ye Yuan did not dwell on the matter and explained.
"In fact, the military talisman has always been what the emperor wanted. Otherwise, how could a dignified minister of the Ministry of War be easily killed by Cao Zhengchun."
Gui Hai Yida was shocked and asked quickly.
"Why? The emperor wants military talismans... just pass the order."
Ye Yuan shook his head, as if he was amused by Gui Hai Yida's naivety, and explained.
"Preaching the decree? In today's Ming Dynasty, various forces are intertwined, and the emperor is actually the one with the least real power. However, Yang Yuxuan does not know whether to live or die, and he actually goes too far with the prince."
Guihai Yida came to his senses and immediately asked with his eyes widened.
"You mean...my adoptive father?"
Gui Hai Yida wanted to defend Tiedan Shenhou a few words, but remembering the doubts in his heart, he was unable to speak out in the end.
Ye Yuan nodded and said.
"Tie Dan Shenhou's Dragon Protection Villa has money, intelligence, and even trains dead soldiers. If he has military power again, who can feel at ease?"
Only then did Gui Hai Yida realize that Yang Yuxuan's death was tacitly approved by the emperor, and Cao Zhengchun was just a pawn doing dirty work.
The confused person was talking about Guihai Yida at this time. The truth was really unacceptable to him.
He couldn't help but ask.
"The foster father really has...that intention?"
Ye Yuan said with a solemn expression.
"Yes, he is rich, powerful and powerful, and he is trying to get his hands on the military power."
Gui Hai Yida suddenly remembered the story told by Tiedan Shenhou, and seemed to have found a basis for refutation.
"No, my adoptive father said that he once had the opportunity to ascend to the throne, but he refused. Is this also a lie?"
"No, this is true. It's just that he gave it up for a beloved woman. Now let's put ourselves in someone else's shoes and think about it. If you were forced by your father to choose between the throne and Shangguan Haitang, would you hate you?
Where is father?"
Gui Hai Yi Dao was stunned for a moment and fell into a tangle, but he quickly reacted, feeling embarrassed, and retorted with a pale face.
"What are you talking about? Haitang is a boy!"
Ye Yuan looked at him with joking eyes and did not refute, and even followed his words.
"Okay, okay, is she a boy? Man... her breasts are so big. It seems that when I see her in the future, I have to ask how she got them."
Gui Hai wanted to get angry, but he couldn't admit that Shangguan Haitang was a woman, let alone admit that he liked Shangguan Haitang.
Therefore, he had no choice but to stop in frustration.
Ye Yuan did not continue to tease him, but just said.
"Stop talking about this, you can just do what you want!"
