Yue Hanshan and all his men were pale, and the expressions on their faces changed again and again as the man came in.

Up to now, Yue Hanshan still hasn't been able to think clearly about his own affairs. It was so obvious that there was no omission in it, so how could he be discovered?

The men knelt down on one knee and were all silent, as if they were waiting for the person who came in to announce their punishment.

The person who came in was none other than Ruthis. When his subordinate brought back a fish, he began to feel uneasy, and he was also slightly uneasy, prompting him to ask his subordinate to check the fish he brought back. Unexpectedly, the fish had been replaced by someone else.

After Kitchen Lady described it, his subordinate reported it back to him word for word. Only then did Ruthis realize where the underlying uneasiness in his heart came from.

The person who gave him this feeling, apart from Lord Divine Dragon, was the small official next to Crown Prince who transformed into a human form. He analyzed and filtered it over and over again, and finally noticed something was wrong. He immediately searched the house and searched for it, and it lived up to his expectations.

The fish was found, and he originally thought that the one who took the fish away was the subordinate sent by Crown Prince, but when he actually saw a group of his subordinates cheating and substituting things, the anger that had been suppressed on his face could no longer be controlled and burst out.

Ruthis sneered, "Why don't you take me out of the house directly?"

The question was ambiguous, but to Yue Hanshan's ears, it sounded like a confession before death. A thin layer of sweat dripped from his palms. It took him a long time to raise his head and look directly at Ruthis, "This subordinate confessed, but it was manipulated by his subordinates. It has nothing to do with other people. Please Mansion Lord forgive those who have nothing to do with it."

The men kneeling beside him opened their mouths and found that they could not even say anything to defend Patrol Guard Captain. After all, they were afraid and felt cold towards the new Mansion Lord.

Logically speaking, this matter was originally their fault, but they were directly convicted without even giving them a chance to argue. Who can understand the bitterness in the hearts of these people?

Yue Hanshan took everything on himself. Like a man, he stood his ground and did not defend or beg for mercy for what he had done. He just calmly accepted the evidence of his guilt.

On the contrary, Ruthis, who was Mansion Lord, couldn't hold his breath. His face, which had the appearance of Westerners and Central Plains, was both handsome and slightly distorted at the same time.

But soon, he broke away from this state and talked to Yue Hanshan extremely calmly. He must know whether these people were colluding with Crown Prince of Great Chu behind his back.

It's ridiculous to say that this was originally Great Chu's territory, and whether it was Servant or Patrol's soldiers in his house, or the guards in the hospital, they were all Great Chu's common people and Great Chu's soldiers. Those who followed his orders were the traitors who colluded with the empire.

However, Ruthis has already taken this island as his own, and secretly regards this island as his private property. In the future, if he wants to defeat Great Chu from Army and Navy, he must start here.

With one move, he moved his whole body, and this place was completely within his grasp, as well as other Great Chu islands and Coastal Towns.

All he needs is to consume the patience of the Great Chu imperial court and Northern States surrounding officials.

A few days ago, he heard from City Lord that officials and big shots from Capital City were coming here. He originally wanted to win over them, but he sent many invitations, but they were all rejected, which made him frown.

The person who came here has been missing all day long, and I don't know what he looks like. Unfortunately, most of the people he took to escape here don't know the appearance of the big shot in Capital City, otherwise they would be able to identify who he is.

In addition, this person has never disclosed his identity, he comes and goes without a trace, and although he is dressed in ordinary clothes, he cannot hide his nobility. Someone close to him has drawn a picture of that person's appearance.

However, it was just a silhouette of a person standing on the pole of a boat. He couldn't guess who it was. Since he couldn't win over him, he simply killed him and then secretly replaced him. He planned that the person who replaced him would slip and fall into the water halfway and die in the sea area of Northern States.

Unless he was precise and prepared for a long time, he never thought that the people he sent out would never return, and his own existence would be exposed.

Just a few moments ago, Ruthis realized that this person was probably sent by Crown Prince to look for someone. The person he was looking for was Lord Divine Dragon, who had transformed into a humanoid official.

For some unknown reason, Master Divine Dragon became 'Mermaid'.

Ruthis is thinking about his big plan, how can he not be ready to make a move? Although he does not know why this master Divine Dragon turned into Mermaid, he knows from his subordinates that this Mermaid is very delicate and cannot be separated from water.

When he heard this, joy flashed through his mind. This was God's protection, a gift from Sun God, so what if Great Chu was blessed by Divine Dragon, he had many Deity.

The more Ruthis thought about it, the more anxious Peng Pang Pong's heart beat. Finally, he calmed down, and he called the person who discovered the secret to the Main Hall, asked them one by one, and then issued his instructions.

The man was so happy that he never imagined that he would be successful one day, so he cooperated with Ruthis's confidants and found the best opportunity to kidnap 'Mermaid'.

After Ruthis thought about all the things over and over again, he settled down. He squinted at Patrol Guard Captain, who had assumed all the evidence of the crime without authorization, and his tone was not as cold as before, "You are not that person's inner circle, so why did you use this thing to replace someone else?"

Yue Hanshan said as if he was under pressure, "Mansion Lord, this fish has a deep connection with this subordinate. You may not believe it, but I will never see it being used as food..."

Ruthis snorted and finally walked to the big wooden basin. He lowered his eyes and glanced at the fish in the basin, and saw that the fish frequently ignored him. As long as he looked into his eyes, he would quickly move away. It was not like the first time they met.

I suddenly felt angry and funny. If it weren't for this Yue Hanshan, I'm afraid this Divine Dragon would really be served as a meal.

After all, how can there be any means of struggle with this appearance?

Ruthis squinted and observed again. He glanced at Shen Mermaid floating in the big wooden basin and said with a smile, "This is my fault. However, you know that this fish has an extraordinary origin, but you did not tell me. Guard Yue, do you no longer regard me as its master?"

If you want to kill him, you can ask him to do whatever you want. You can label him as a traitor or disobedient to discipline. He Yue Hanshan will not accept it.

Yue Hanshan said with a serious look, "Mansion Lord, I didn't mean that. You are overthinking it. I have never colluded with anyone else, and I have no intention of making Mansion Lord a fool of myself."

Ruthis was just about to put his hand into the water and fish out the fish, but Shen Yangge was also ready to take a series of pictures of Ruthis's face after being caught...
