Visit the Ou Clan?
When Ye Zi heard what Xu Bai said, she was stunned on the spot.
After a while, he said hesitantly, “‘But…Are we going to go openly like this?”
To do this, he had to find a dark and windy time to put on a night suit and secretly touch it, right?
Ye Zi was a little confused. If they went there openly, would they be able to find anything useful?
“Of course, we should go openly. Sometimes, it’s better to investigate openly than secretly.”Xu Bai opened the door and said, “Let’s go.”
Ye Zi was in a daze. Although she covered her face with a veil, her big eyes were filled with confusion.
However, since Xu Bai had said so, she did not ask any more questions and followed him out the door.
After they left, Xu Bai brought Ye Zi to a small stall to eat.
Although Ye Zi had covered her face with a veil, her gentle and charming temperament did not change, making Xu Bai the center of attention.
After the meal, the two of them slowly made their way to the Ou Residence.
Throughout the whole process, Xu Bai did not seem to be in a hurry. Instead, he looked like he was shopping.
Ye Zi was even more puzzled. She felt that Xu Bai did not seem to be here to denounce him. Instead, he seemed to be here for a vacation.
However, she knew very well that she only needed to play the role of an invisible person. It would be troublesome if she cared too much.
Not long after, the two of them arrived at the Ou Family.
As a big family in the clay mansion, the Ou family was naturally quite rich. Even the stone lion at the entrance was much more exquisite than the other families.
At the door, two servants were on duty with wooden sticks in their hands.
Seeing Xu Bai and Ye Zi come over, one of the servants walked up and asked, “‘What brings the two of you here?”
After taking this job, the servant was also loyal to his duty. In this situation, the servant naturally asked first.
Especially when he saw the black saber at Xu Bai’s waist, the servant could tell that this saber was different and knew that Xu Bai was not to be trifled with.
“Inform them that Xu Bai is here to see the Ou Family Head.”Xu Bai slowly said as he held the black blade Hundred Rend in his hand.
Ye Zi shrank behind Xu Bai and did not say a word. Her eyes rolled around, and no one knew what she was thinking.
The servant was slightly stunned, but he still let Xu Bai wait there and went in to report.
After about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the servant walked out and bowed respectfully.”The family head said that he had caught a cold recently and was worried that Lord Xu would be infected, so he could not see
Lord xu.”
Xu Bai narrowed his eyes when he heard this.
“What if I insist on going in?
“Lord Xu, please don’t make things difficult for us. If Lord Xu insists on entering, we can only sue you for trespassing. “The servant’s tone was rather helpless, but he still insisted on guarding this job.
“Go ahead.” Xu Bai walked inside.
The servant hesitated for a moment and tried to stop Xu Bai.
However, before he could step forward, he heard Xu Bai’s next sentence. “How much money do you earn a month? Do you have to risk your life?”
The two servants looked at the black blade at Xu Bai’s waist. After hesitating for a moment, they did not dare to stop him.
That’s right, he only had so little money a month. How could he risk his life?
With this thought in mind, the servant could only pretend that he could not stop them.
Xu Bai came to the door and pushed it open.
The door made a slight noise. Behind the door was a huge courtyard.
Rich families liked this style. The bigger the area, the more it showed their wealth.
Xu Bai led Ye Zi and directly walked in, followed by two helpless servants.
With this movement, it naturally attracted the attention of many servants.
A moment later, Xu Bai was stopped by someone.
An old man dressed as a butler stood in front of Xu Bai and blocked his way. He said with a serious expression, “Lord Xu, my master is not feeling well. It’s better to come back another day. If we go back now, I can pretend that I didn’t see him.”
Although the butler was bent over, his tone was extremely firm. Clearly, he wanted to stop Xu Bai completely.
“Something important was lost in my Yin Posthouse. Now that the investigation has reached this point, you are going against the Imperial Court by stopping me.”Xu Bai said indifferently.
He started to address him as his official, so naturally, he was using his official title to suppress others.
The old butler smiled.” Lord Xu must be joking. The Yin Posthouse that Lord Xu is in is located in Yunlai Mansion. It’s very far from here. How could it be possible to find this place?’”‘
“If I say yes, then yes.” ” Your status is too low,” Xu Bai said.” If you don’t cooperate with me, I won’t show you any mercy. ‘”‘
“Lord Xu, this is trespassing…”
Xu Bai retracted his hand and looked at the old butler’s swollen face.’”‘You’re smiling cheekily. You deserve a beating.”
“You!” The old butler touched his own face, and his eyebrows were raised. He was about to flare up.
Xu Bai interrupted him.”lf you stop me from investigating the case, you’re going against the imperial court. I’ve already been very magnanimous by giving you a slap.’”‘
As soon as he said this, the old butler wanted to flare up, but he forced himself to calm down.
At this moment, a weak voice sounded.
“Lord Xu has a noble status. How can you be calculative with a servant? Fu, bring Lord Xu in.’
There was no one there, only voices.
He was an expert.
Xu Bai narrowed his eyes and thought to himself, “‘You pretended to be so weak, but you were able to transmit your voice so far. You came with me in the open.”
When the old butler named Fu heard the voice, he was slightly stunned. He quickly reacted and endured the humiliation in his heart. “Lord Xu, please..”
