Chapter 580: Chapter 582: Who are you actually?_1

After Long San had finished speaking, he added to Nan Feng, "Don’t worry, Miss Nan. We won’t ask you to do anything dangerous."

Nan Feng smiled, "I have martial arts skills to protect myself and my identity as a merchant. I can handle most situations. As long as I can help you, I will."

"Miss Nan, your understanding and judgement are admirable," Long San saluted Nan Feng with a fist.

Nan Feng returned the salute: "There’s nothing profound about my understanding, you are the ones that have true loyalty."

"When the country is in trouble, everyone should share the responsibility," Long San smiled.

Long San only ate a few pieces of mushrooms before he was full. He put down his chopsticks and drank tea, but he continued to urge Ye Ge and Nan Feng to eat.

Ye Ge has a large appetite, and Nan Feng has a good one, so the couple continued to eat.

After taking a sip of tea, Long San said to Ye Ge, "My brother has recently discovered that refugees in Ping County are continuously disappearing. I suspect that they are being taken to build the new imperial palace. In addition, there are also refugees disappearing in County. These refugees are taken away by wealthy households under the pretext of employing them as permanent workers. After working for a few days, they are quietly moved away. As you know, with the influx of refugees, the government’s granaries are becoming increasingly strained, so the government is eager to let the refugees go."

Ye Ge nodded, "Then I should investigate further tomorrow. Let your people continue to keep an eye on the list I gave you."

"That’s not an issue. Are you planning on telling Master Song about this?"

"Yes, I do. The reason I wanted to be Song Cheng’s bodyguard is because I knew he came from the Capital City and is a good official. I observed him for a while and thought he is trustworthy. I will tell him about it tomorrow at the latest."

Looking at Nan Feng, Ye Ge said, "Fengfeng, if things go well, I may need to go to Capital City. I am not sure how long I will be gone, less than half a month or more than two months. If anything happens during this time, you can come here to seek out Long San."

Nan Feng chuckled, "Don’t worry, I’m not a child. I can take care of myself."

Long San then laughed and said to Nan Feng: "Your husband is my friend. His problems are mine, and your problems are naturally mine too. Feel free to come to me for help. I won’t hesitate to assist."

...

At the Inspection Mansion.

In the study room, Song Cheng had finished reading the files given to him by Ye Ge. Because it was so shocking, he couldn’t believe that the cases contained in these files were real and he repeatedly read them again and again for confirmation.

Ye Ge was waiting quietly by his side.

After reading for a while, Song Cheng finally accepted the reality. He was almost shivering as he rolled back the files one by one.

After rolling them up, Song Cheng checked again at the door to make sure no one was outside. He then returned to the table and closed the door.

"Guard Xia, where did you get these files?"

"My Lord, since I accidentally discovered that place last year, a friend from the Jianghu realm and I have been investigating this matter. This is absolutely true. If you do not trust me, I can take you there in person tomorrow!"

"That will not be necessary," Song Cheng waved his hand and his dark face looked very grave, "The information you collected is obvious enough, I don’t doubt the authenticity. In fact, I was skeptical when I heard that Qin Kun was going to retire and return to his hometown in the Fu County, he has been in the palace for so many years, why did he suddenly retire? Now, it seems to have been premeditated."
