"Wang He? What is he doing here? "
In a room in the backyard of the Ye residence.
When Little Yu 'er heard that the person lying on the floor was the servant Wang He who was eavesdropping on them last night, she was puzzled at first. Then, she asked, "Monk, did he really eavesdrop on our conversation last night? And today, did he go out to inform someone? "
Ye Fashan looked at Little Yu 'er with admiration and nodded, "Yes! Last night, it was already late so he did not leave the residence. But this morning, he left the residence through the back door. He was sneaky and looked back every few steps. He was very careful! I followed him all the way to the county office. I was worried that he would reveal our identities so I knocked him out in an alley opposite the county office and brought him back! "
"County office?"
Little Yu 'er frowned and said, "Monk, are you saying that Wang He's master is a member of the county office? That is to say, someone sent him to hide in your second uncle's residence to gather information? "
Ye Fashan looked serious and said, "Although there is no conclusive evidence, it is not far from the truth! However, before we came here, we didn't inform my Second Uncle. This Wang He has stayed in the Ye family for more than three years, so he definitely isn't hiding in the residence just to investigate our identities! "
"Hehe! At least you are not too stupid! I think so too! "
Little Yu 'er smiled and analyzed, "I think Wang He is your second uncle's rival in the county office. He must have unintentionally eavesdropped on our conversation last night. After that, he thought that our identities would be useful to his master so he went to inform him! Tell me, am I right? "
Ye Fashan looked at Li Yu and asked curiously, "Why did my cousin want you to be a reporter in the Datang Daily editorial department? Why not go to the yamen as a constable? I think this is more suitable for you! "
"Hmph! The yamen is filled with a bunch of stinky men. I am not going! "
Little Fishy wrinkled her nose, snorted, and said, "Hey! Seriously, Fashan, think about it. Does your second uncle have any rivals in the county office? "
Ye Fashan shook his head. "How would I know? I haven't been to Guancheng County for many years. Besides, Second Uncle wouldn't tell me about this! "
Li Yu said unwillingly, "Then what should we do? It wasn't easy to find a clue, but now it's broken again! "
"Isn't it easy for Miss Li Yu to find out who the other party is? Why don't we just ask him? "
Ye Fashan pointed at the unconscious Wang He on the ground and said indifferently.
"Yeah!"
Little Fishy's eyes lit up. She then looked at Ye Fashan with a strange expression and asked, "But Fashan, as a Taoist, shouldn't you be kind to others and not kill easily?"
Ye Fashan said faintly, "Stopping killing with killing is also a meritorious deed! Miss Li Yu, please get a basin of cold water! "
"Yes! Alright! "
Li Yu looked at Ye Fashan in surprise, then left the room.
A moment later, a basin of cold water was splashed on Wang He's face. Wang He finally woke up.
"Where am I? Huh? Little Young Master, you! What are you trying to do? Someone, help … "
Wang He looked into the room and his face was filled with panic. He wanted to shout for help, but the moment the word "help" left his mouth, he stopped abruptly because there was a cold dagger on his neck!
"You're just a servant of the Ye family. Even if I kill you, Second Uncle won't say anything and the government won't find trouble with me. If you still want to shout, then go ahead!"
Ye Fashan suppressed the discomfort in his heart and said coldly.
Although he had spoken nicely to Li Yu just now, this was the first time he had done something like this. As the direct descendant of the Ye Clan of Nanyang, he had never seen blood in his life. However, in order to help Li Yu, in order to find Wei Zheng's whereabouts, and in order for them to leave Guan Cheng County safely, he had to make himself cold and ruthless.
"Spare … spare my life! Little Young Master, spare my life! "
Wang He, who was in a life and death crisis, didn't know that Ye Fashan was just putting up a strong front. Feeling the cold dagger on his neck, he was so scared that he almost wet his pants. "Little Young Master, I don't have any enmity with you. Why do you want to kill me? Please spare my life! "
"Shut up! Next I'll ask and you'll answer. If you say another word, I'll … "
While speaking, Ye Fashan suppressed the fear and uneasiness in his heart and pushed the dagger on Wang He's neck. In an instant, there was a blood mark on his neck!
"Good, good, good! Little Young Master, please ask. If I know, I'll tell you everything! "
Wang He said with a face of fear.
Ye Fashan's face was cold as he asked, "Let me ask you. You were sneaking around this morning. What were you going to do?"
Wang He rolled his eyes and said, "Little Young Master, I wasn't sneaking around. I was going out to buy some fish for the kitchen. Little Young Master, please understand!"
"Hmph! Still lying? "
Ye Fashan snorted and said, "You should go to the market to buy fish. Why did you go to the county office? Don't think that I don't dare to kill you! "
After saying that, he pushed the dagger in his hand into Wang He's neck. Blood immediately oozed out from Wang He's neck.
Little Yu 'er covered her mouth and didn't dare to look anymore.
Wang He was scared out of his wits. At this moment, he really felt the threat of death. He hurriedly cried and begged, "Little Young Master, please spare my life! Little Young Master, please spare my life! I'll tell you everything. Please spare my life! "
"Hmph! Then hurry up and say it! "
Ye Fashan secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Although Wang He's neck was cut, it didn't break any blood vessels. It wasn't a big deal. He had a sense of propriety. From the beginning to the end, he had never thought of killing anyone. If he really met someone who wasn't afraid of death, he would probably be at his wit's end!
Wang He didn't dare to hide anything and hurriedly said, "It's … it's Registrar Zheng. I went to report to Registrar Zheng! Registrar Zheng asked me to monitor the Ye residence. If I discover anything that's unfavorable to Old Master, I have to report to him! "
"Unfavorable to my Second Uncle?"
Ye Fashan frowned and asked, "What did you eavesdrop on last night?"
Wang He hesitated for a moment and gritted his teeth, "I heard that Miss Yu 'er was sent by Duke Yong' an to look for Left Deputy Wei. In this month, everyone who came from Chang 'an was arrested by the Provincial Governor's Residence. Old Master hid you in the residence. If the Provincial Governor knew about this, Old Master would be sentenced to prison.
So … so I wanted to take this information to Registrar Zheng to exchange for money … I know my mistake. I hope Little Young Master will spare my life! "
"Hmph! You're a traitor who lives off me! "
Ye Fashan was furious when he heard this. He couldn't help but punch Wang He in the stomach. The latter instantly arched his body in pain.
"Bam!"
Ye Fashan used his palm to chop the back of Wang He's head. The latter made an "ugh" sound and fainted again!
"Miss Li Yu, help me find a rope. I want to tie him up and hand him over to Second Uncle!"
