Chu Mo put down the candlestick, poured a full cup of tea and drank it, and then sprayed it all on the scroll.

Wen Qingyuan saw Chu Mo's movements, and his face was full of confusion. And Yu Zixuan, Wushuang and the others on the side nodded like this.

"Picture-in-picture, kind of interesting."

Wushuang shook the folding fan and said with a smile on his face.

Hearing this, Wen Qingyuan came to his senses.

I saw Chu Mo carefully tugging at the corner of the scroll and gently pulling it on the net, and finally, under the gaze of several people, this complete landscape painting was actually divided into two, and the scroll hidden under this landscape painting was not strictly speaking a circle, because what caught everyone's eyes was a dense line of small characters.

"The emperor lives up to his wishes, I didn't expect this Shen Simiao to think of hiding the roster in the painting in this way."

Wushuang said with a smile.

"Yes, the roster roster, I thought it would be a book, but I didn't expect it to appear in front of us in this way. It seems that this Shen Simiao has been leaving a way for himself since he entered the princelings. ”

Chu Mo spoke lightly, and then checked some of the things recorded on the so-called roster.

In the thirtieth year of the Wu calendar, the states and counties handed over more than 7.56 million taels of silver to the state treasury, but actually handed over 5.2 million taels to the national treasury, of which more than 230 taels went into the hands of the prince.

In the thirty-second year of the Wu calendar, the prefectures and counties should pay the treasury tax silver, 9.7 million taels, and actually pay 6 million taels, of which 3 million taels were given to the crown prince and 700,000 taels were privately withheld.

In the thirty-second year of the military calendar, at the behest of the prince, the tax collected was nine million taels of silver, five million taels were returned to the treasury, and four million taels were given to the town of Guohou, the military department, the criminal department, and the generals of the general's mansion.

Thirty-four years of the martial calendar......

Looking at all the records on this, Rao is Chu Mo couldn't help but feel shocked, in just a few years, Shen Simiao actually helped Li Qian get no less than ten million taels of silver from taxes!

Moreover, in addition to the crown prince Li Gan, there are even many ministers in the court, if this list really reaches Li Deyi's hands, the entire Dawu Dynasty will inevitably be shaken.

And at this moment, not only Chu Mo felt a little tricky, but the rest of the people also felt the seriousness of the matter.

"Chu Mo, this matter is very important, the people recorded above, except for the crown prince, the rest of the people in the Dawu Dynasty are also powerful existences, if this matter is known to His Majesty, the consequences will be unimaginable......

"And...... And ......"

Wen Qingyuan's face was solemn, and he stopped talking.

"Madame is trying to say that even the three princes of the Dawu Dynasty are all listed, right?"

Wen Qingyuan nodded when he heard this.

The three princes of the Dawu Dynasty are all people who have made great contributions to the south with the first emperor in the past, although these three people are not holding an official position in the court now, but the prestige of the three in the court is extremely high, even if Li Deyi sees the three of them, they must be treated with courtesy.

Not only that, although the three princes did not serve in the court, their children and grandchildren were all powerful generals.

Chu Mo never thought that Li Gan, the crown prince, had the support of so many big people behind him, no wonder Li Tianqi tried all means to bring down Li Gan, but to no avail.

"Now the roster has been found, but this roster is a hot potato. Son, what are you going to do next? ”

Wushuang asked with a frown.

"Chu Mo, you must think clearly, if this list is handed over to Your Majesty, it will not only be the crown prince who will be offended, but nearly half of the court. Although the things recorded on this roster are enough to make Li Gan die several times, after all, he is the prince appointed by His Majesty, and the successor of the Dawu Dynasty in the future, even if you hand over the roster to His Majesty, Li Gan will not necessarily be punished so severely. ”

"If Your Majesty deposes Li Gan because of this, then it's okay to say. But if Your Majesty still turns a blind eye and only punishes Li Gan, then Li Gan will inevitably regard you as a thorn in his side, you have just come to Kyoto, even if you have the support of our Taishi Mansion behind you, but if you want to be an enemy of Li Gan, it is absolutely impossible to ......"

Wen Qingyuan knew the seriousness of the matter, and at this moment, her heart was also full of uneasiness.

Li Tianqi didn't know that Wen Qingyuan had seen Chu Mo, and at the same time, she also knew what Li Tianqi saw Chu Mo for, once Chu Mo handed over the roster, Li Tianqi would inevitably use this matter to go online to deal with Li Gan, and at that time, others were likely to misunderstand that Chu Mo was Li Tianqi's person.

The battle between the princes was cruel, and the reason why the Taishi Mansion was reluctant to participate in it was because he was afraid that he would provoke him.

Listening to Wen Qingyuan's words, Chu Mo lowered his head and pondered, until after Shaoqing, Chu Mo slowly raised his head, a touch of resoluteness flashed in his eyes, and he said in a solemn tone: "The roster must be handed in!" ”

Hearing Chu Mo's words, Wen Qingyuan and Wen Zijin still wanted to persuade them, but Chu Mo said faintly at this time: "Naturally, I have to hand it over, but I don't plan to hand over the roster to Your Majesty...... Instead, give it to Li Tianqi! ”

Hearing this, Wen Qingyuan's two sisters and brothers were stunned.

Not to His Majesty, but to Li Tianqi, this may seem like a good way, but who can guarantee that Li Tianqi will not say that the list was handed over by Chu Mo after he gets it.

But looking at Chu Mo's positive appearance, Wen Qingyuan still chose not to speak.

Chu Mo saw Wen Qingyuan's worried expression, and smiled and said with relief: "Madam, don't worry." No matter how this matter develops, I, Chu Mo, swear to you that I will protect you and the Taishi Mansion no matter what! ”

After speaking, Chu Mo looked at the two Wushuang, and then said: "It's not early, everyone have a good rest tonight, and we will leave the black market early tomorrow morning and go back to recover our lives!" ”

The two of them nodded, stood up, turned and left the room.

Wen Zijin walked to the door, glanced back at Chu Mo, and then sighed helplessly, and left.

……

It's late at night.

Wen Qingyuan was already asleep leaning on Chu Mo's chest, but at this moment, Chu Mo was waiting for his big eyes, without a trace of sleep.

At this moment, Chu Mo was a little suspicious in his heart. Since Li Tianqi and Li Qian have both come to the black market, why didn't they see these two people at the auction venue.

Thinking of the man who was bidding with him again, Chu Mo's eyes narrowed slightly, if he couldn't tell Chu Mo's expectations, this man was either Li Gan's person or Li Tianqi's person.

But it's useless to think about it now, now that the roster is in his hands, what he has to think about now is how to ensure that he can smoothly return to Kyoto with the roster and hand him over to Li Tianqi.

Chu Mo knew that it seemed to be calm on the surface now, but once they left the black market, they would probably usher in a bloody storm.

And just when Chu Mo was in reverie, a change suddenly happened!
