After dealing with Teng Ye and the others for a day, he finally made them believe that he was Fang Yanjun. Although they didn't point it out, they had tacitly agreed to it. When Tang Deren mentioned the Fang Clan in Qinghe City, Ming Xi also said a few words, making people believe that he was the young master of the Fang Clan.
As the Golden Crow descended to the west, Ming Xi and the others finally left the ranch.
Returning to the inn, Xu Jinbei let out a sigh of relief. "We finally passed. Mingxi, you're really amazing. There were no flaws at all."
"Fortunately, I know what kind of person Fang Yanjun is." Fire Phoenix said. Otherwise, she would have definitely been recognized today.
Ming Xi took off his brocade coat, "Teng Ye is more cautious than Tang Deren, you have to be more careful when socializing with him."
"Today, Teng Ye didn't see anything." Xu Jinbei said in a low voice, "He already completely believes that you are Fang Yanjun."
"Teng Ye mentioned the Dark North Kingdom today. Did you guys notice anything?" Ming Xi suddenly asked in a low voice.
Xu Jinbei and Fire Phoenix looked at each other. They were both on guard against being seen through. How could they have noticed what Teng Ye had said about the Dark North Kingdom?
"Perhaps I'm thinking too much." Ming Xi shook his head lightly, temporarily suppressing the doubts in his heart.
"Teng Ye invited us to the Garrison Residence tomorrow. Should we go?" Xu Jinbei asked.
Ming Xi faintly smiled, "Of course I'm going. Why wouldn't I go? I also want to know how many people in Wasteland City belong to Teng Ye."
"He has only been in the Wasteland City for a few months, but he seems to be the local bully here." Xu Jinbei said it was no wonder that people always said that the Emperor was far away. Wasteland City was so far away from Jingdou. If it was covered up well, it would be very difficult for news to reach the Palace.
"It seems that Sixth Uncle doesn't know this person well enough." Ming Xi snorted coldly. No wonder Teng Ye, a commander of the hidden guards, could be so arrogant in the capital. He must have some sort of confidence.
While they were talking, there was a knock on the door.
Ming Xi gestured for Fire Phoenix to open the door and check.
Outside was Shen Yi, disguised as a manservant. He said that he was here to deliver the enamel vase that Ming Xi had picked out a few days ago.
"Come in," Ming Xi said.
"Young Master Ji, this is the enamel vase you picked up in the shop two days ago." Shen Yi raised his voice as he walked in. He lowered his voice and asked, "Young Master, are you alright?"
Ming Xi smiled, "It's fine. Teng Ye has already treated me as Fang Yanjun. You came at the right time, there's something I need you to investigate."
Shen Yi's expression froze. "Young Master, please instruct me."
"How many people from the Dark North Kingdom are here in the Wasteland City? Can you find out? "Ming Xi asked in a low voice.
"At least half of them are prisoners of war from the Dark North Kingdom. They were supposed to be sent back, but they volunteered to stay and become citizens of the Jin Kingdom, so …" It was difficult to find out how many people there were in the Dark North Kingdom.
Ming Xi thought about it carefully. "Then check which people from the Dark North Kingdom Teng Ye is in contact with."
"Young Master, are you suspecting …" Shen Yi's expression darkened.
"I'm not sure. Let's investigate first." Ming Xi said.
Shen Yi took a deep breath. Were they suspecting Teng Ye of colluding with the Dark North Kingdom? This was a great crime of betraying the country.
Ming Xi continued, "Just based on Teng Ye alone, he doesn't have the ability to use the remnants of Qian Luocha to usurp the throne. There must be someone behind him."
"Young Master, I will investigate clearly." Shen Yi said.
After a few days, Ming Xi and Teng Ye gradually interacted more. Although they hadn't talked about the most sensitive topic, he could feel that Teng Ye was trying his best to rope in the Fang Family. Moreover, he was using all sorts of methods to make the Fang Family believe that he had the ability to ensure the Fang Family's glory and splendor.
Shen Yi still couldn't find out that Teng Ye was in close contact with the people from the Dark North Kingdom. Even the servants of the garrison weren't from the Dark North Kingdom.
"Young Master Ji, in two days, I'll introduce two friends to you." Today, Teng Ye held a banquet for Ming Xi and talked about this matter with a smile.
"Lord Teng has a wide circle of friends. After following you for a few days, you've already met many capable people." Ming Xi said with a smile. He had already remembered all the people that Teng Ye had sent him to meet in the past few days. He would deal with them in a few days.
Those people should be preparing to rise up.
"My friends in two days can't be compared to the others." Teng Ye said with a smile.
Ming Xi raised his eyebrows. "Then I'll have to thank Lord Teng."
Teng Ye smiled. Just as he was about to speak, a servant walked in. "Lord, Lord Li is here."
"Li An is here?" Teng Ye froze for a moment. He looked at Tang Deren, "Didn't you say that he would arrive in two days?"
Xu Jinbei and Ming Xi exchanged glances.
"He might be rushing over on horseback." Tang Deren said. "I'll go out and welcome him."
"No need. You stay here to entertain Young Master Ji. I'll go alone." Teng Ye said in a low voice. He had already stood up. "Young Master Ji, please wait here."
Before Ming Xi could react, Teng Ye had already walked out with large strides.
"What's going on?" Ming Xi looked at Tang Deren in confusion.
"An important guest has arrived. In a moment, Lord Teng will introduce you." Tang Deren said with a smile.
Ming Xi had a smile that wasn't a smile. "It seems that this important guest has a very big background."
This was the first time he had seen Teng Ye so nervous.
"Of course, if he doesn't have a big background, would Lord Teng care so much about him?" Tang Deren said.
"Oh, I'm really looking forward to it." Ming Xi said with a smile.
This person was probably the source of Teng Ye's confidence.
After about the time it took to drink a cup of tea, Teng Ye led the other two people into the hall.
Ming Xi looked up at the two people. He felt that the people he was looking for were not these two.
"Young Master Ji, do you know this Lord Fang?" Teng Ye asked Ming Xi with a smile. He looked at the middle-aged man beside him.
"I don't know him." Ming Xi looked at the man and shook his head.
"Little nephew, it's only been a few years. You don't remember me?" The middle-aged man asked with a smile.
Ming Xi looked at him seriously. He shook his head and said, "I really don't remember. Are you a branch of the Fang family?"
"Lord Fang is the Prime Minister of the Dark North Kingdom. Your Fang family has branches all over the world. You should know that the Dark North Kingdom's Fang family is a prestigious family." Teng Ye said.
Ming Xi suddenly understood. "So you're saying that you're the Fang Rusheng that my grandfather mentioned before?"
"The Patriarch mentioned me?" Fang Rusheng was stunned. He looked at Ming Xi eagerly.
"The branch of the Fang family has come to the Dark North Kingdom. Their relationship is already very distant. However, if it wasn't for you, Fang Rusheng, the Dark North Kingdom's Fang family wouldn't be able to make a name for themselves." Ming Xi said lightly. He did not change his attitude just because the other party was the Prime Minister of the Dark North Kingdom.
Teng Ye said there were two people. He did not even mention the other person. Clearly, he did not want to introduce him to him. Even Fang Rusheng came along. There was no doubt about the other person's identity.
Fang Rusheng laughed. "The Patriarch really favors me."
"It's not that he favors you." Ming Xi said expressionlessly. "The old man said that only someone as despicable, shameless, and vicious as you can achieve what you have today in the Dark North Kingdom. If it was anyone else in the Fang family, no one would be able to do it."
"Hehehe." Fang Rusheng laughed even more awkwardly.
