Removing the heavy carved vase, Luo Yongkang cautiously raised his head and looked around, and cautiously looked up at the roof.

Since Fu Hengsheng's gap on the roof was only the size of his little finger, with Luo Yongkang's eyesight, he couldn't see anything wrong.

In this way, Fu Hengsheng stared at Luo Yongkang and the vase next to him with bated breath.

After Luo Yongkang was sure that there was no one, he squatted down and gently patted the floor occupied by the vase just now with his hand.

Knock knock knock......

With a light tap, a hollow sound immediately sounded.

Luo Yongkang grabbed the side of the floor under his feet with both hands, clenching his teeth tightly.

Click-

After a crisp sound, Luo Yongkang lifted a half-meter-long floor. Fu Hengsheng held his breath and stared at this scene, he suddenly found that there was a square gap under the floor, and there seemed to be a black and red box placed in the gap.

Lifting the floor stone, Luo Yongkang was still a little uneasy, turned around and pulled the doors and windows, to make sure that the doors and windows were tightly closed, and then he walked back here quickly.

"Whew-" Luo Yongkang picked up the black and red box under the floor, and blew the box, blowing all the mud and dust on it to the ground.

Luo Yongkang did a lot of calculations, maybe he couldn't count Fu Hengsheng, who was above the roof, was watching this scene with his own eyes.

Slowly opening the black and red box, Luo Yongkang carefully took out a thick book placed in the box. After looking at it casually, Luo Yongkang took a long breath, and a boulder hanging in his heart slowly fell down for half a minute.

When Luo Yongkang and a group of civil and political officials were under house arrest in a quiet courtyard in Nancheng, Xu Muchuan once said to him in his ear: "Someone gave this official a book, and there are a lot of things written on it. ”

At that time, Luo Yongkang was sweating, but Luo Yongkang had lived in the court for many years, so naturally he would not show his feet, and he pretended not to know anything.

However, from that day on, Luo Yongkang was frightened all the time, very afraid that Xu Muchuan was not bombing him, but really mastered some of the things he had recorded over the years.

Therefore, as soon as Luo Yongkang returned to the capital, he used his physical discomfort as an excuse and had not been in the court for many days. Luo Yongkang stayed in the Department of Civil Affairs and always wanted to verify that his things were still there, but he was very afraid that someone was watching him, so he didn't take action for a long time.

In the middle of the night today, Luo Yongkang really couldn't bear the panic in his heart, and repeatedly had to carefully and cautiously go back and forth with the Department of Civil Affairs and Administration, and finally arrived in this room.

"It's okay, it's still there, if this thing leaks out......" Luo Yongkang grabbed the heavier book in his hand with both hands, muttered to himself, and his back was cold for a while.

But what was the point of what he had said? Are you cheating on me? Luo Yongkang thought of Xu Muchuan's firm gaze in Nancheng, and his brows furrowed into the word "Sichuan".

Of course, at that time, Xu Muchuan didn't have any evidence that could testify against the Secretary of Civil Affairs, let alone anything else. Everything is just Xu Muchuan's speculation.

Is it reasonable that the civil affairs secretary who is the inspector of local officials and the secretary of civil affairs who handles state affairs is not aware of the huge human trafficking case that has affected ten cities?

You know, this human trafficking case is not a day or two, but many years. Haven't there been some Qing officials who have felt that something is wrong over the years? There must have been some officials who reported to the capital, but they disappeared inexplicably, as if the inexplicable disappearance of the population of each city had never appeared.

Some time ago, Xu Muchuan interrogated the four governors of Nancheng and learned that many officials and squires in the ten cities were involved, but there was no evidence about any civil and political departments.

At that time, Xu Muchuan hadn't thought much about it.

Until one day, Ximen Rou suddenly appeared in Nancheng and met Xu Muchuan. Ximen Rou clearly warned Xu Muchuan to stop the action of solving the case, because the characters involved in it are really difficult to shake.

As a result, Xu Muchuan did not have any emotional fluctuations on the surface, but his heart was like turning over the river. That's right! It is unreasonable that the civil affairs department that coordinates the handling of state affairs in the whole country has no idea about human trafficking in ten cities.

Subsequently, Xu Muchuan analyzed Ximen Rou's nervousness at that time, and he concluded that this matter was definitely related to the Secretary of Civil Affairs. As a result, a series of actions were planned against the Secretary for Civil Affairs.

Step 1: Directly use the sword of the Son of Heaven to round up the civil affairs secretary and the other bigwigs to return to Nancheng, which makes them panic.

Step 2: Xu Muchuan deliberately pretended to know everything, and named the book in his hand that had everything Luo Yongkang had done over the years. made Luo Yongkang frightened in his heart and disturbed his mind.

Step 3: On the day of returning to Beijing, Xu Muchuan showed his confident attitude. Let Luo Yongkang hesitate.

Step 4: Xu Muchuan would rather be whipped in public than reveal anything about human trafficking. This made Luo Yongkang unable to guess Xu Muchuan's thoughts.

Luo Yongkang's heart was naturally tormented, and those who couldn't sleep at night would be filled with fear. When the news of Xu Muchuan's whipping came, Luo Yongkang finally couldn't help but want to open his record book to see if the book was in his own hands or in Xu Muchuan's hands.

To this day, Xu Muchuan has no evidence in his hands that can testify against the Secretary of Civil Affairs.

But now, maybe it's not going to happen.

"It seems that this is what Childe wants me to find." Fu Hengsheng was lying on the roof like a black tile, he squinted his eyes and looked directly at the book in Luo Yongkang's hand, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Luo Yongkang cautiously put the book in his hand on his chest, then laid out the floor and moved the vase to its original position.

Then, Luo Yongkang casually looked inside the house, then turned around and opened the door, and walked calmly towards the other attic.

Fu Hengsheng has already figured out all the corners of the Civil Affairs Department, he is like an eagle falcon, prostrate on the roof, quietly looking at Luo Yongkang's back, what he thinks in his heart no one knows.

Luo Yongkang covered the book on his chest and took a deep breath of relief. However, he always felt a chill in his back: "I'm so tired these days, and my body is a little unwell." ”

The moonlit night was hazy, and it was already about two o'clock in the morning.

Except for the guards who changed shifts and patrolled, the entire Civil Affairs Department was unusually silent.

At this time, Fu Hengsheng, who was lying on the roof, finally moved his body, and then walked towards the attic that he had been watching for a long time like a ghost......
