Who was Bai Daqing thinking of? You've probably guessed by now, right?
Yes, it's Gao Fei!
Gao Fei was new, and he hadn't had much contact with Li Jiang, so there was no worry that Gao Fei would intentionally favor Li Jiang. Gao Fei's cultivation wasn't too low, and his abilities weren't lacking; he was just right to be appointed as the imperial envoy to investigate the case.
...
While patrolling, Gao Fei suddenly received a message that the City Lord wanted to see him. He handed over his patrol duties to someone else and then hurried over to meet Bai Daqing.
"City Lord, you were looking for me?" Gao Fei asked with a puzzled face, "What's the matter?"
"Gao Fei, would you like to earn a merit?" Bai Daqing looked at Gao Fei with a smile, "How about an amethyst?"
"Of course, I would." Gao Fei answered without hesitation, "I dream about it."
"Very well." Bai Daqing nodded, "I now give you the chance to earn merit."
Gao Fei blinked, "What is it?"
