Pei Yan wanted to use this matter to establish prestige in front of the Pei clan and revitalize the Pei clan. With the ancestral foundation laid, Pei Yan sent people around to find out the whereabouts of the Yan Qiaoshuang sisters who assassinated King Qi, and thoroughly found out the truth about King Qi's murder.

Xie Che gave Wei Zhao a secret mission to monitor Pei Yan's every move. Worried that Pei Yan would rebel with the help of his tribe, Wei Zhao also sent people to secretly search for the sisters Yan Qiaoshuang. Pei Yan and Wei Zhao followed He Zhenwen to inspect the Foundry Department, but found nothing unusual. Wei Zhao suggested taking advantage of their sightseeing tour to investigate the ordnance case.

Wei Zhao, Jiang Ci, Cui Liang and Wei Zhao went out early every day. They pretended to take a break and spent a few days walking around Nanling's large and small markets. Wherever they went, everything was in order and the people of Nanling lived and worked in peace and contentment. , they paid special attention to rice shops and blacksmith shops, but found no problems. The porridge Jiang Ci drank at the roadside stall was old rice. They found that many rice shops sold old rice, but the price was the same as new rice. Wei Zhao felt Someone is secretly controlling everything and doesn't want them to see the real Nan Ling.

Jiang Ci and A Yan, who was punting the boat, hit it off and the two became best friends. A Yan took Jiang Ci to relax by the river. Jiang Ci accidentally discovered that all the eagle-humi trees within a ten-mile radius of the river had been taken advantage of. She I was very puzzled. Nanling is a land of fish and rice. This year is a year of abundant rain and increased production. People will not pick barley to satisfy their hunger. Jiang Ci suspected that there were hungry people in Nanling. She reported it to Pei Yan immediately. Pei Yan immediately decided to negotiate with Wei Zhao. Working separately, he went to Mipu to find out the situation and asked Wei Zhao to look for the hungry people. Jiang Ci offered to follow Pei Yan to investigate the case. Pei Yan was worried that she was in danger and asked her to wait at home.

Ayan saw Pei Yan caring so much for Jiang Ci, and couldn't help but think of her beloved fiancé. But now they are separated by Yin and Yang, and Ayan was so sad when she saw the necklace her fiancé gave her. Pei Yan sent people to investigate the four major granaries in Nanling and found that both the east and west granaries were controlled by the Pei clan. He sent Tong Min and Yi Fei to investigate the matter thoroughly.

Yi Fei secretly investigated Zhao Wu and heard that Zhao Wu had married a wife and had children before entering the palace. He was executed for dereliction of duty. His wife died early and his son lived in Nanling. Wei Zhao suspected that Zhao Wu had let the sisters Yan Qiaoshuang go and let Yi Fei Continuing to keep an eye on Pei Yan, Yi Fei did not want to continue being a spy and was scolded by Wei Zhao. Wei Zhao went to the kitchen to eat and saw Jiang Ci steaming rice cakes with carved barley. Wei Zhao took the opportunity to stir up trouble in front of Jiang Ci, claiming that Pei Yan's investigation of the rice shop was not for the hungry people, but to protect the Pei family's remnants. Jiang Ci didn't believe it at all. , gave him a piece of rice cake and sent him away with a few words.

Wei Zhao went out to investigate the case early in the morning. Jiang Ci secretly came to his room to look for the little clay cat. Jiang Ci turned the room upside down but could not find his little clay cat. Wei Zhao suddenly returned and caught Jiang Ci. At this time, Jiang Ci accused him of not going all out to investigate the case and asked him to hand over the little clay cat. Wei Zhao flatly refused. He took Jiang Ci to the ruined temple in the west of the city and saw many hungry people gathered there. Officers and soldiers Jiang Ci was stunned as he beat and scolded them.

Wei Zhao remembered that he and his sister were beaten and scolded like hungry people. He was so angry that he gritted his teeth and wanted to rush up and teach the officers and soldiers a lesson. Jiang Ci advised him to endure it for the time being and come up with a way to find out the truth. Jiang Ci and Wei Zhao pretended to be a hungry couple and went begging on the street. They were caught destroying the temple. Jiang Ci shouted for help and made up his own experience of becoming a hungry victim. The hungry people turned a deaf ear to them. Some people tried to persuade Jiang Ci. Don't waste your efforts.

Wei Zhao took out a piece of big cake, and the hungry people rushed to grab it. Wei Zhao took the opportunity to ask them where he was imprisoned in the ruined temple. The girl who once served as a bartender at Zuihonglou told the truth. Many hungry people came to Nanling City. They lived hard on carved hummus. He Zhenwen suddenly sent his thug Zhao Da to lock up the hungry people here. The reason was that Qing A senior official from Kangcheng came to Nanling to inspect.

The girl was in unbearable pain due to the attack of Hualiu disease. Jiang Ci decided to stay and take care of her, and asked Wei Zhao to go back and report to Pei Yan. Wei Zhao could not defeat Jiang Ci, so he left her with the badge of Guangming Division. Pei Yan took Cui Liang and An Cheng to the west granary to investigate, and found that the rice here was shoddy.

Wei Zhao returned to his residence and learned about Pei Yan's whereabouts from Yi Fei. He rushed over immediately and saw An Cheng coming out of the place where Zhao Wu once lived. He quietly went in to investigate and found a suspicious footprint. He Zhenwen heard that Pei Yan went to the granary in the west and Wei Zhao went to the west of the city to destroy the temple. He was worried that the matter would be exposed, so he sent He Yonglin to lead people to kill all the hungry people.

Jiang Ci took good care of the girl. Suddenly, a group of people re-entered the ruined temple. The leader of the group had his face covered. They were killing hungry people frantically. Jiang Ci quickly took the girl to hide, but was eventually discovered. Jiang Ci was in a hurry. I had no choice but to shout Wei Zhao. Wei Zhao hurried to the ruined temple and found that there was no one there and Jiang Ci was missing. Only then did he realize that Jiang Ci was in danger.

Jiang Ci called out Wei Zhao's name and showed the badge of Guangming Division. The masked man did not dare to act rashly and had to order her to be captured. Pei Yan then rushed to the ruined temple and learned that Jiang Ci had been taken away. He hurried to rescue people. Wei Zhao suddenly found Jiang Ci's sachet on the ground, which contained Dark Night Orchid. Wei Zhao knew that once it touches Dark Night Orchid, it will It was difficult to wash away, and he wanted to use this clue to find Jiang Ci.
