After Ding Mao sat down, Yu Peng ordered some more refreshments and tea. Then, the two of them began to talk.

Yu Peng took out the portrait beside him and placed it in front of Ding Mao.

“How much do you know about this person?”

Seeing this, Ding Mao took the painting and unrolled it.

When Liu Mingkun’s portrait appeared in front of Ding Mao, he smiled. “So you wanted to ask about this guy!”

“Tell me, how much does this information cost?” Yu Peng asked.

“Pardon me for asking, but why are you asking about this person?” Ding Mao asked another question.

Yu Peng smiled and said, “This guy provoked someone he shouldn’t have!” When Ding Mao heard this, he was immediately amused.

“You’re not lying to me. You’re telling the truth. In that case, I’ll only charge you ten taels of silver. I hope that you and I can both achieve our goals. I hope that you can deal with Liu Mingkun. I also hope that Liu Mingkun will get punished.”

Yu Peng was very surprised to hear Ding Mao’s words.

Could it be that even the heavens wanted Liu Mingkun to get punished?

Otherwise, how could there be such a coincidence?!

“Since we have the same goal, tell me everything about Liu Mingkun!” Yu Peng said.

Ding Mao nodded before telling him about Liu Mingkun.

Because there was too much information, Yu Peng wrote them down with a pen as he listened.

This went on for the entire afternoon. It wasn’t until the moon appeared that Ding Mao finished telling him everything he knew.

After sorting out the information he had recorded, Yu Peng bid farewell to Ding Mao and left.

When he returned to the house, Jiao Hang was already waiting in the hall. “What took you so long? I was so anxious! Have you had dinner yet?” “I didn’t eat dinner, but I drank a lot of tea!” Yu Peng waved his hand and said,

“Have you eaten yet?”

Jiao Hang shook his head and said, “No, I was waiting for you to come back.”

Yu Peng said, “How about this? There’s a noodle shop at the entrance of the alley. Go order two bowls of noodles. I’ll talk about my gains today as we eat!” Jiao Hang nodded and turned to walk out of the noodle shop.

After Yu Peng washed his face and his hands, he sat in a chair in the hall.

However, Yu Peng’s mind was racing.

The news he’d received had exceeded his expectations. It even surprised him.

As expected, his gut feeling was right. There was a problem with Liu Mingkun.

As he thought about it, the fragrance of noodles wafted in from outside.

Jiao Hang had already returned with a food box.

“Come, come, eat the noodles quickly. I ordered two bowls of braised meat noodles. They smell delicious!”

Yu Peng opened his eyes and sat up straight. Then, he took a bowl of noodles.

Yu Peng asked after taking a bite of the noodles, “How is it? What did you find out?”

“You’re right. Many people know Liu Mingkun, but they are many emotional entanglements involving him!” Jiao Hang replied as he ate, “There are five

people having an affair with him today. There are all kinds of people among these five people. There are widows, little girls, and married women!”

When Yu Peng heard Jiao Hang’s words, he nodded. “I know about these things!

Did you find out what kind of feelings Liu Mingkun has for Huaiqi Village?”

Jiao Hang didn’t understand, so he asked, “What do you mean?”

“Have you heard anyone say that Liu Mingkun likes the village he was born in very much or is very protective of the people in the village?” Yu Peng asked. Jiao Hang shook his head. “No! There’s no news about this at all!”

Yu Peng asked again, “Then did you find out about the relationship between him and the village chief’s daughter?”

“No, everything I found out is about the matters in town. The people in town might not know about what happened in the village!” Jiao Hang said.

“That’s not necessarily the case. I found out much more than you did!” With that, Yu Peng handed the information he had recorded to Jiao Hang.

Jiao Hang was also literate, so he took the stack of papers and read them one by one.

As he ate, he read them. In the end, he couldn’t eat the noodles anymore.

“Damn, Liu Mingkun is quite a talent!” Jiao Hang said.

“Return it to me after you’re done reading it!” Yu Peng said when he saw that Jiao Hang had put away the things he had recorded.

Jiao Hang wanted to say something, but he finished the noodles and the soup first.

“This news surprises me too much, so I have to finish the noodles first in order to calm down!”

Yu Peng laughed when he heard Jiao Hang’s words. “Then wait for me to finish the bowl of noodles too!”

With that, Yu Peng focused on eating his noodles.

After eating and drinking his fill, Jiao Hang washed the bowls and sent them back to the noodle shop in the alley.

At this moment, the two of them moved two chairs out and sat under the starry sky.

“Sigh, I wonder what Mr. Luo and the consort will think when they find out about this!” Jiao Hang said.

When Yu Peng heard Jiao Hang’s words, he immediately thought of something.

“That’s right! Why didn’t I think of that?! I have to tell Mr. Luo and his wife about this!”

With that, Yu Peng returned to his room and started writing.

Yu Peng sorted out the things he had recorded and divided them into a few parts. Then, he attached them to the letter.

Early the next morning, Yu Peng entered a shop and sent the letter back through a special channel.

After handing over the letter, Yu Peng left the residence with Jiao Hang and rushed straight to Daxing Village.

At noon, the two of them arrived at Daxing Village.

After asking where the village chief lived, the two of them drove the carriage towards the village chief’s house.

The village chief of Daxing Village was called Qi Changliang. He had just returned from the field with a hoe on his shoulder when he saw a carriage parked in front of his house.

Qi Changliang quickened his pace and came to Yu Peng and Jiao Hang. Then, he asked, “Who are you guys looking for?”

Yu Peng looked at the man in front of him and asked politely, “Hello, we’re here to look for the village chief, Qi Changliang!”

Qi Changliang asked, “I’m Qi Changliang. Who are you guys? Why are you guys looking for me?”

Yu Peng said, “Village Chief, this isn’t a good place to talk! Why don’t we come into your house to talk?!”
