Chapter 63 - 48: Assault on Yuxiu Villa
The tall horse snorted, playfully stomping on the fallen leaves scattered on the ground.
Nearly sixty supervisors and agents from the Eastern and Western Factories simultaneously crushed the dry leaves underfoot as they appeared at each entrance of the Jade Show Manor.
Chen Yi secretly sought out Min Ming to inquire about the background of Jade Show Manor. He learned that today was the loading and unloading day. Determined to catch them red-handed, he patiently waited for an entire day.
The sentence, "What business is it of yours if I bring armed men?!" enraged the Protectors of the manor, but when they saw the imposing group of Brocade-clad guards approaching, they involuntarily stepped back several paces.
Chen Yi unsheathed his blade, pointed at the door of Jade Show Manor, and said:
"The Eastern Factory is investigating a case. No one may obstruct us."
The Protectors tightened their expressions. Armed with spears and staffs, they were momentarily unsure of what to do. A massive quantity of Five-Stone Powder was stored inside Jade Show Manor today. If they allowed the Brocade-guard to search the premises, even with the Prince Mansion’s vast influence, Jade Show Manor would face severe consequences.
