The world of film and television begins from childhood

"Yeah, it's normal."

In fact, Mei Changsu was somewhat excited about the fact that Princess Nihuang suspected that he was Lin Shu, which showed that Mu Nihuang had not forgotten their past.

But he could also feel that even though she guessed that he might be Lin Shu, Mu Nihuang was not as attached to him as before.

"Nihuang is a very good girl, I am not worthy of her."

Now, he is more concerned about clearing the Chiyan injustice case. Romance is no longer that important to him.

"Please don't talk about these unhappy things. Xia Dong has returned. Did you know that?"

"I really don't know about that. I haven't been out much lately, using the excuse of recuperating from my injuries. Jing Rui and Yu Jin haven't been to my place in the past two days either."

Mei Changsu said in a deep voice: "Xia Dong's return means that Duke Qing is finished, and Prince Yu has lost a great general. The next step is the Crown Prince's turn. I am ready to start the next plan."

"The Orchid Garden Corpse Hiding Case?"

"Ah."

Zhou Chen sighed: "In this era, human life is really worthless. We are all at the same age, but we are being persecuted by these people..."

Although he himself is not a good man and his hands are stained with a lot of blood, compared with those people, what he did really makes him a good man.

"Are there not enough examples of people harming others for their own selfish desires?"

Although Mei Changsu also despises that kind of people, he lives in this era and is more receptive.

"We can't save them, but we can help them get revenge, which can be regarded as a kind of compensation for using them."

Zhou Chen nodded, and then said: "Then you will plan this matter next. I will do something in the next few days."

Mei Changsu asked in surprise: "What are you going to do?"

Zhou Chen showed a mysterious smile: "Something that can make you very happy, don't worry, I will not leave the vicinity of the capital. If you want to find me, let Gong Yu convey it."

"Why is it so mysterious?"

Although Mei Changsu was curious, he did not ask any further questions. Even the best of brothers have their own secrets. But he really did not understand why Zhou Chen said that he was happy.

Zhou Chen suddenly asked: "By the way, I heard that you already know where General Nie is buried. Tell me so that I can go and pay my respects as well."

Mei Changsu didn't care and told Nie Feng the truth about where he was buried, which was on a solitary mountain outside the capital.

Prince Mu’s Palace!

Xia Dong returned to the capital and reported to Emperor Liang, handing over all the evidence she had investigated to him. She was no longer needed in the next trial, so she went to find her good friend Mu Nihuang.

"I heard you were attacked outside the capital?"

After seeing Xia Dong, Mu Nihuang asked with great concern.

Xia Dong sneered, "They are just a bunch of scoundrels. It's just a fight between the Crown Prince and Prince Yu."

She had worked in the Xuan Jing Division for so many years, how could she not see through the essence of this case? She was extremely disdainful of both the Crown Prince and Prince Yu.

"I did hear about your son-in-law selection meeting. It seems that Gongzi Yu still didn't listen to what I said. It turns out that few men are good."

Mu Nihuang was stunned: "Gong Ziyu? Don't you know him? What's going on?"

Xia Dong told Mu Nihuang about his encounter with Zhou Chen on the way to Binzhou after leaving the capital, and he was still very unhappy at the end.

"Nihuang, I think you should just forget it. That man doesn't value you, so why bother with him?"

Mu Nihuang remained silent, she knew that things were not as simple as Xia Dong thought.

"Looking at your appearance, I know you're in serious trouble. How about I help you teach him a lesson?"

Mu Nihuang rolled her eyes: "Forget it, you can't beat him."

Xia Dong said: "I can't beat him alone, but I brought people from the Xuan Jing Division with me, and I still can't beat him?"

"Okay, stop making trouble. I know what's going on. Just leave it alone."

"I've also heard about your story. Your Majesty was forced to agree to your selection of a son-in-law, but you still have to be more careful in the future. Our Majesty..."

Xia Dong did not say anything deeper, but Mu Nihuang understood what she meant and knew that Xia Dong was doing it for her own good.

"I see."

…………

A few days later, Zhou Chen stood in front of a tombstone with a puzzled look on his face.

This time, he came to this lonely mountain from sunrise to sunset and returned late just to look for someone, the person engraved on the tombstone in front of him, General Nie Feng.

This is the tombstone that Xia Dong erected for her husband Nie Feng. Xia Dong comes here to worship every year. Before coming to the capital, Mei Changsu had already inquired about this place.

Zhou Chen had watched the TV series, so he knew that Nie Feng was not dead, but because he was poisoned by the fire and cold poison, he was neither a human nor a ghost. His life was worse than death, and he dared not enter the town.

No one knew where he had been hiding before, but Zhou Chen knew that he met Xia Dong when Xia Dong went to investigate the case of Duke Qing. Then Nie Feng followed him all the way back to the capital and hid on this isolated mountain.

However, Nie Feng was deeply poisoned and had long lost his consciousness. He had been in a daze until he saw Xia Dong. He knew that Xia Dong was a very important person to him, so he followed him all the way. However, because of his appearance, he did not dare to go forward, so he kept hiding.

He came here to find the whereabouts of Nie Feng. Nie Feng had a close relationship with them, especially with Mei Changsu. If he could find Nie Feng, Mei Changsu would be very happy.

But he stayed here for several days and did not find any trace of Nie Feng. He also walked around the isolated mountain and still did not find any trace of him.

This made him wonder, was it something he had neglected when watching the TV series, or was it because of his appearance that the plot took a turn?

If Nie Feng was on this isolated mountain, he would definitely find him, but since he hasn't found him now, it means that Nie Feng may not be here.

After waiting for several days, Zhou Chen was not going to wait any longer. He still had to go and help Mei Changsu. After the Lanyuan corpse case broke out, Xie Yu would definitely take action against Mei Changsu. In order to prevent any accidents, he had to protect him secretly.

Taking a final look at the tombstone in front of him, Zhou Chen sighed and decided to wait until next time to look for it again.

At night, in Ningguo Marquis Mansion, in Xie Yu’s study.

Xie Yu sat in the main seat, Zhuo Dingfeng sat next to him, and Zhuo Qingyao sat below him.

The Xie family and the Zhuo family have a close relationship and rely on each other. As a powerful underworld force, the Zhuo family has many masters, and their main responsibility is to help Xie Yu deal with matters in secret. Things like assassinations are all handled by the Zhuo family.

Because there is Xiao Jingrui, the son of two surnames, and Zhuo Qingyao married Xie Yu's daughter, their relationship is not only in-laws, but also relatives.

It's just that this time, the Zhuo father and son came to the capital secretly, and only Xie Yu knew about it. Xie Yu called them here for his own purpose.

"Brother Zhuo, Mei Changsu has already surrendered to Prince Yu. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has made up his mind to get rid of Mei Changsu, so this time we have to ask Brother Zhuo to take action again."

Over the years, the Zhuo family has long been accustomed to helping Xie Yu kill people. With Xie Yu's support, Tianquan Villa has become more and more powerful in the world over the years.

In a normal assassination, Zhuo Dingfeng would at most ask one more question. He didn't care whether Xie Yu answered or not.

But this time it was different, Xie Yu actually wanted him to kill Mei Changsu.

Who is Mei Changsu?

He is the leader of the Jiangzuo League, the largest gang in the world, and the number one young master on the Langya Young Master List. The Jiangzuo League is much more powerful than his Tianquan Villa. Even he doesn't dare to easily say anything about assassinating Mei Changsu.

"Thank you, brother. It is my duty to help His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. But Mei Changsu is different. He is the leader of the Jiangzuo League. The Jiangzuo League is powerful and has many experts. It is not easy to mess with him."

Xie Yu, however, did not take the Jiangzuo League seriously: "The Jiangzuo League is just a gang, and Mei Changsu is just a weak scholar. As long as you don't reveal your identity, how would others know that it was you, Brother Zhuo, who did it?"

Zhuo Dingfeng said, "Brother Xie, you must not underestimate this man. In addition to Mei Changsu, the Jiangzuo League also has a Luosha, who is ranked fifth on the master list, but no one has ever seen his true face, and no one knows his true strength. Mei Changsu is acting like this in the capital, I think Luosha is probably protecting him in secret."

Although Luosha, the deputy leader of Jiangzuo League, was ranked one place lower than him, he never dared to underestimate Luosha, because Luosha had not appeared for several years and his last battle record was a few years ago. Thinking of the speed at which Luosha climbed onto the Langya Master List a few years ago, even he was extremely wary.

Xie Yu frowned. He knew that there was a little guard beside him who could fight with Meng Zhi for dozens of moves without being defeated. He was probably not much worse than Zhuo Dingfeng.

If there is another Rakshasa who might be hiding in the dark, it would not be so easy to assassinate Mei Changsu.

But he was also a ruthless man, and he made a decision immediately: "No matter what, we must give it a try. If there is only one Fei Liu beside Mei Changsu, then you must do your best to kill him. If Luosha is hiding in the dark, he will definitely show up when Mei Changsu is assassinated. If he shows up, you must retreat immediately, and I will think of other ways."

Seeing that Xie Yu had made the decision, Zhuo Dingfeng no longer hesitated, agreed to his plan, and decided to carry out the assassination the next day.

When Zhou Chen returned home, Gong Yu had been waiting for a long time.

"Gong Yu, you wait for me at home every day. Is everything okay at Miaoyinfang?"

Gong Yu helped Zhou Chen undress while saying, "It's okay. Mr. Thirteen allowed it. After he knew about you and me, he rarely let me go out. Even if we are acquaintances, we need to make an appointment in advance and we can leave after playing a few songs."

As the top star of Miaoyinfang, she seldom appears in public, unless it is someone of very high status, such as Prince Ji, Yan Yujin, etc.

However, Yan Yujin has not been to Miaoyinfang recently, and news has spread in Miaoyinfang that Miss Gong Yu might get married, so although many people lamented for a long time, they gradually accepted it.

Of course, it is also because Miaoyinfang still has many excellent singers. Although they are not as outstanding as Gong Yu, with the new songs composed by Zhou Chen and the poems written by Zhou Chen, even without Gong Yu, Miaoyinfang's business has not declined.

"That's good."

"Sir, still no harvest today?"

Gong Yu asked in a low voice. She didn't know what Zhou Chen had been doing these days, but she guessed that Zhou Chen was probably looking for something outside the city.

Zhou Chen shook his head and sighed: "I didn't find it, but forget it, maybe the time is not right yet."

After helping Zhou Chen change his clothes, Gong Yu whispered, "Sir, Steward Lu made some moves today. I followed him for a while, but he was very alert. I was afraid of being discovered, so I didn't follow him any further."

Zhou Chen was immediately interested when he heard this: "Really? He can even spot your excellent Qinggong. It seems that our Steward Lu is really extraordinary."

He had always known that there was something wrong with Butler Lu, but he had not taken any action before. However, Butler Lu was able to evade Gong Yu's tracking, which was a great ability, so he was very interested in the true origins of Butler Lu.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 833: Human life is worthless, assassination in Xie Mansion

There was something wrong with Butler Lu. Zhou Chen had noticed it since the first time he met him.

It’s just that Butler Lu hasn’t been doing anything, and he hasn’t been at home much recently, so he didn’t bother with Butler Lu.

But Gong Yu noticed something strange about Butler Lu, and Butler Lu could even detect that Gong Yu was following him, which made him even more interested.

He was really confused. Which force did this Steward Lu belong to?

After he arrived in Jinling City, he didn't do anything. Who noticed him and sent an experienced spy to lurk around him?

He knew the relationship between him and Gong Yu, and was able to accurately grasp the time when Gong Yu would buy a house, and even let Gong Yu choose him. In addition to his own abilities, there must have been some planning by the forces behind him.

In the next few days, Zhou Chen did not go out, but stayed in the yard. However, what puzzled him was that Butler Lu had not made any movement in the past few days and it was quite quiet.

Butler Lu hasn't found out anything yet, but Gong Yu brought him a piece of news.

"Sir, we received news that the leader was assassinated last night."

Zhou Chen paused and asked, "I understand."

Gong Yu asked in confusion: "Sir, aren't you worried?"

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "You don't need to worry. I even know who is trying to assassinate him. Besides Fei Liu, he also has Li Gang and Zhen Ping around him. Even if Zhuo Dingfeng from Tianquan Villa takes action himself, he can't do anything to him."

Gong Yu was shocked: "Have Captain Li and the others arrived in the capital? The one who assassinated the Sect Master last night was actually Tianquan Villa?"

Although she is also an important spy, Miaoyinfang is controlled by Mr. Thirteen. Her rank is not as high as Mr. Thirteen, so many information needs to be told to her by Mr. Thirteen.

"Well, Xiao Shu was assassinated. It seems that the case of the corpse hidden in the dry well in Lanyuan has been exposed."

Gong Yu said, "Young Master, your guess is correct. The case of the corpse hidden in the dry well in Lan Garden was only exposed yesterday, but it has already spread today. It is estimated that it will spread throughout the capital in a few days."

Zhou Chen nodded silently. Mei Changsu's way of revenge was different from his. Perhaps due to physical reasons, Mei Changsu now used strategies that focused on attacking the mind and calculating every step.

These steps after arriving in the capital are closely linked, and Mei Changsu has basically simulated them countless times in his mind, so he is not particularly worried.

"Butler Lu has not made any noise these days. Instead, he has been working very hard. If I hadn't noticed something was wrong with him, I would have thought he was a diligent butler."

Zhou Chen was also really puzzled, because according to his observation, Butler Lu was very concerned about the affairs of the mansion, and there was respect in his eyes when he looked at him.

So he was a little confused, not knowing whether this Butler Lu was hiding too deeply or there was some other reason.

Gong Yu suggested: "Sir, why don't you just take him down? There is someone with ulterior motives around, and I am worried about your safety."

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "With my strength, do I still need to worry? I am more worried about you. So, wait a few more days. If he still doesn't make any movement, I will capture him and interrogate him."

The case of the body hidden in the dry well in Lanyuan became a hot topic in the capital within just a few days, sparking discussions among countless people.

The reason why this case spread so quickly and widely is because it is the largest murder case that has occurred in the capital in recent years. There are more than a dozen female corpses, and it happened in the inner city. It's creepy to think about it.

In fact, murders like this are not really uncommon in the huge capital city. It’s just that similar murders are either not discovered or, if discovered, not taken seriously.

Take the case of the body hidden in the dry well in Lanyuan for example. If it weren’t for the fact that the people who discovered it were Xiao Jingrui and Yan Yujin, it would definitely not have caused such a big commotion and would have been suppressed quickly.

Jingzhao Prefecture Governor Gao Sheng has been having a headache lately because this case has become a big deal but he hasn't found any useful clues. Even the emperor knows about it and wants him to solve the case as soon as possible, so he is under a lot of pressure.

Mei Changsu was well prepared. Not long after, a witness involved in the case, Sun Jun, took the initiative to find Prince Yu and then ran to turn himself in.

Gao Sheng, who was already under great pressure, was given an order by the Crown Prince who wanted to save the Minister of Revenue Lou Zhijing. This made him, who did not seek merit but only avoid mistakes, so anxious that his hair turned white.

Although he was the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture, he was nothing compared to the Minister of Revenue Lou Zhijing and the Crown Prince. He dared not offend anyone and could only delay again and again.

After waiting for a long time, Zhou Chen finally saw the unusual movement of Butler Lu. He followed Butler Lu all the way, visited several places, and finally came to a cloth shop in the west of the city.
