The moonlight hangs in the sky, and the stars hang in the sky.

The county government was silent, the county magistrate was not there tonight, and several officials on duty found a secluded place and pushed up Pai Gow.

During this time, everyone's nerves were tense, but after a few days, although the weather was still gloomy, the heavy rain had not arrived, and the water level of Honghu Lake had a tendency to reced, and everyone was somewhat slack.

But there was a black shadow against the root of the wall, and the cat quickly skimmed it, walked to a small hole under an inconspicuous thatched pile on the side of the door of the county government, and drilled out.

There was a carriage waiting outside.

The side gate is close to the main street, and most of the officials go up and disperse from there on weekdays, so there are always some carriages waiting on weekdays, and there is nothing abrupt about this carriage waiting here tonight.

The shadow got into the carriage at a speed that was so fast that only the afterimage could be seen with the naked eye.

In the carriage, the candle flame was dim, the girl sat aside with her eyebrows and eyes, waiting with a teacup, and her calm face was in the warm orange light, with a texture like warm jade, as if the hand of the gods was finely carved, and there was no place that was not fine, and no place was not perfect.

Rao has seen it countless times, but in front of the face that suddenly took off his disguise, Lin Jiang still shook his head, and couldn't help but sigh, "Miss, why don't you put on the mask......

The girl tilted her head and looked at it, her eyebrows were slightly raised when she heard this, and she was a little annoyed, "I went out in a hurry, I only brought two masks, and those two have shown their faces, if I am seen tonight, and then the East Window incident happens, it is safer to have my own face, after all, there are very few people in Honghu County who recognize me...... It's not such a coincidence. ”

As she spoke, she put aside the teacup and pushed the cup in front of her in front of Lin Jiang, "Have you found anything?" ”

Lin Jiang seemed to be extremely thirsty, so he took the tea at just the right temperature and drank it all, and then sat down in front of Shi Huan in a proper manner, "There are some, the subordinates found a secret compartment in his study, and there was an oiled paper package in it, and the subordinates were worried about delaying the time, so they didn't look at it after taking it, so they hurried out." ”

As he spoke, he handed over the package in his arms.

The package was not big, boxy, pinched it casually, and felt that it was all some paper, as well as a few gold and silver ingots, she checked it, a lot, and let Wang Xianling eat a good meal.

opened, sure enough, it was all a correspondence between Gu Yanyao and Wang Xianling, how to exclude dissidents, the party and the same party, each letter has Gu Yanyao's autograph. In addition to the letters, there is also a small book, which records some unsightly things that Wang Xianling has done for Gu Yanyao in the past two years, such as assassinating some people who seem to have nothing to do with Gu Yanyao's eight poles, and the second elder of the Sun family is on the list.

"It seems that he also has a good eye, but he also knows to keep some evidence in his favor...... Speaking of which, our virtuous king really trusts this county magistrate, and he dares to sign this kind of letter. Lin Jiang watched from the side, muttering and sneering, smiling and laughing and feeling that it was wrong, looking at the few gold ingots, wondering, "Everything is done by himself, to put it bluntly, take people's money and eliminate disasters for others, you and I are willing, even if the East Window incident happens and Gu Yanyao is convicted, he can't escape himself......"

On that small book, there are dense rules and regulations to remember one thing at a time, the list of participants, the detailed plan, no matter how big or small, it is indeed half a point of responsibility and has never shirked its own ...... In this way, it doesn't seem like keeping evidence in one's favor, but it seems that one day it is enough to bring down the other party in one fell swoop.

Even if...... We will not hesitate to die together.

"What a strange man." Lin Jiang concluded this.

Oh, yes.

Shi Huan nodded lightly, he is indeed a strange person, obviously a long-sleeved person who is good at dancing, and his brain is excellent, as for how to skillfully circumvent it, at least how to appropriately reduce his own responsibilities should not be a problem for him.

Maybe...... She frowned slightly, maybe this second stunned man was really just trying to bring down Gu Yanyao, but other than that, he couldn't care about anything else?

It's just that...... Why?

The new Tanhualang is handsome and elegant, a talent, and has a bright future. No matter whose camp you stand on, even if no one stands, if you work steadily in Honghu County for a few years, make some reputations and achievements, and naturally return to the imperial capital, so, you are still worried that you don't have equal wealth and are like a cloud of beauties?

The black clouds were heavy and oppressive, and the air was filled with a damp and watery smell, and the wind blowing from the surface of Honghu Lake was wet. The temperature is high, and the whole person is sticky and uncomfortable.

For a while, she couldn't figure out what was so contradictory here, she saw that the hour was almost up, and she estimated that her grandfather couldn't delay it for too long, and Wang Xianling should be back soon, so she immediately ordered, "Go back." ”

He also instructed Lin Jiang, "Send you to the intersection near the inn, and you will go back by yourself." It's always unsafe for me to live in the prefectural government now, so I'll leave these things with you for safekeeping. He folded it up as it was and handed it back.

"Yes." Lin Jiang took it with both hands, naturally knowing the importance of these things, and didn't dare to slack off, "Don't worry, eldest lady, your subordinates understand the severity." Definitely not negligent in this matter. ”

The eldest lady came all the way to Jiangnan and tried her best to meddle in these things, in the final analysis, for the sake of these soldiers who had participated in the Battle of Jiaozhou, if things changed on his side, he would have no face to go back, let alone face to go down.

Shi Huan nodded, "I have always been relieved of your work." In the past few days, I took Jia Yi to the county government under the pretense of being extremely boring and tossing, and almost turned the county government upside down, but I didn't find anything worth noting...... In a few days, when the flooding here is over, we will be able to go home. ”

The evidence...... It's enough to send Gu Yanyao off the altar.

The carriage walked on the uninhabited brick and stone road.

Shi Huan was silent, his mind sinking to the ground. Things were going in the direction she had planned, and she couldn't be happy at all.

In those notes, there are also two silver wielders, more than two years, three floods, how much silver taels each time the imperial court approves, how much is privately hidden, and how much is used...... Every stroke is clear. In this way, the imperial court allocated millions of taels, and in the hands of Honghu County, it was less than one-twelfth.
