Outside of everyone's expectations, after Fan Xian had sent back those treasurers, a shallow s this man away and behead him”

”Yes, Sir”

The Second master raised his head and looked around with confusion in his eyesHe didn't at once cos just be ending like this?

It wasn't silent for longThe Third hed self-deprecatinglyHis face was deathly pale with hopelessness, and he very consciously walked to stand in front of Fan Xian

He speculated that he was co the excuse of suppressing the strikes, naturally, he would not be stupid enough to open the court and try the case; he also didn't need any evidenceHe must kill the three of them on site to establish his powerIt was only in this way the four old shopkeepers would be able to gain control of the technical people in the palace treasury—of the three masters two had already died, and he was the third

Fan Xian glanced at hiazed at hi, ”I have chosen rave forthat you let”

Fan Xian's brow rose and he said, ”Ask”

The Third azed at the Ye family's twelfth shopkeeper beside himHis lip trembled for a while before he shakily asked, ”Twelfth uncle, my master…how is he in the capital? I am not filialI have not shown filial respect these years”

”You are?” Twelfth Ye blinked his slightly murky eyes and looked at this master with suspicion

Seventh Ye let out a breath and said from the side, ”Thirteenth's head discipleYou were the closest to Twelfth back in the day, so he is asking you”

Twelfth Ye was greatly surprised”Hu Jinlin? You're still alive? We all thought you died back then” The old shopkeeper suddenly remembered he was surrounded by court officialsThese words were not quite right, and he quickly shut his mouth

Hu Jinlin's face was full of shameHe lowered his head and wouldn't speak

Twelfth Ye sighed and said, ”Back then thedeadUs, old bones, struggled at death's doorHow could we blame you…only, you ask about Thirteenth…ah” The shopkeeper shook his head and said, ”He passed a few years agoOf the 23 of us that entered the capital, there are only 15 left”
