Chapter 5083

The Jade City Lord smiled slightly, and said thoughtfully: "This matter still needs to be investigated carefully. Since my son trusts Mr. Ye, can you recommend someone who can be impartial to investigate this matter?"

Hearing this, Ye Wudao thought: "Why not let Miss Qinglan investigate?"

"Why?" asked the Jade City Lord.

Ye Wudao said: "I think Miss Qinglan will not favor anyone. Now is a turbulent time for the City Lord's Mansion. The identities of other people are not suitable for investigating this matter. The City Lord's Mansion should try to minimize its own losses in this turmoil."

The Jade City Lord's face suddenly turned cold, and he said indifferently: "What does Mr. Ye mean by this?!"

"What do you mean by a turbulent time? What does it mean to minimize your own losses?!"

Ye Wudao was not scared, and his expression was still calm. He said: "The City Lord knows everything in his heart, and I don't need to say more."

The Jade City Lord smiled and nodded.

He just wanted to scare Ye Wudao and test his performance. Ye Wudao was not an ordinary person. He was not afraid of danger and guessed what he was thinking.

Whether Yuhui ascended to the position of city lord or his elder brother, it was the same for Yucheng Lord.

He just didn't want to see the city lord's mansion in crisis and internal losses because of the fight for the throne, which would give foreign enemies an opportunity to take advantage of it.

After thinking about it, Yucheng Lord hinted: "I hope that no matter who sits in my position, they can take the overall situation into consideration, and even when they don't sit in my position, they can take the overall situation into consideration."

"Yuhui..."

Yuhui knelt all the time and didn't dare to raise his head.

"Yuhui!" Yucheng Lord shouted emphatically.

Yuhui raised his head, his eyes full of tears.

"Father, I really didn't do this. I'm considering the overall situation! I didn't do anything about my sister either. I can guarantee it with my life!"

"If father can't do it, I...will die as proof!"

After saying that, he took out a poison pill and was about to take it himself.

Fortunately, Lord Yu got there first and dodged and snatched the pill.

He said angrily, "Why die as proof!"

Yu Hui cried non-stop, "Father, if you can't prove my innocence, it will be more painful than killing me!"

Lord Yu looked helpless.

Ye Wudao also saw that Lord Yu's original idea was to make this matter bigger and find out who was responsible, but now Yu Hui's approach made it difficult for him.

"Alas!" Lord Yu sighed and said to Yu Hui, "Go back. I know who did it. Your elder brother did it. I will take care of it for you. Go back and don't think too much about it!"

Yu Hui cried, "Father, maybe it wasn't my elder brother who did it. I don't believe he is such a person."

"Just go back!" Lord Yu said unhappily, "No matter who you are, I don't want to make a big deal out of this. Take Butler Liu into custody first. Do you understand?"

Yu Hui stood up and saluted respectfully, "Yes! Father!"

Then he gestured to Ye Wudao, obviously wanting Ye Wudao to follow him and leave.

But the Lord of Jade City said, "Young friend Ye, please stay here."

Yuhui nodded respectfully, "The child will leave first."

"Well, go ahead."

After sending Yuhui away, the Lord of Jade City turned around and looked at Ye Wudao, saying, "You should know who did it, right?"

Ye Wudao said, "The account book incident was done by the second young master, and the kidnapping of your daughter was directed and acted by your daughter herself."

He took out the communication token given to him by Yu Qinglan and told him everything that had happened before.

After listening, the Lord of Jade City laughed, "It seems that my children are not content either. Young friend Ye is really a fence-sitter. He actually told me everything about them."

The next moment, his face suddenly turned cold.
