After noticing that there was something wrong with the atlas in the treasury of the Ministry of Officials, Ji Changan's first thought was that the Ministry of Officials had been infiltrated by the people behind the scenes.

Maybe someone put the account book mixed with strange patterns in Xia Yuanji's warehouse, the purpose is to subtly make Xia Yuanji's heart change.

Fang Zhongjin said: "Now the situation is obvious, these account books are not placed in the back treasury by placing people in the ministry. ”

Ji Changan couldn't help but touch his nose when he heard this. He couldn't see at all why it wasn't a good thing done by the people in the ministry.

Not to mention anything "obvious".

Fang Zhongjin explained: "You see, we have guarded Xia Yuanji for so many times before, and he has not changed at all.

But as soon as it was interrupted by the emperor's decree, there were immediately more greasy account books in the treasury, what do you think this means?"

Ji Changan tried to answer: "The things we are eyeing are also in the eyes of the people behind the scenes?"

Fang Zhongjin nodded and said, "Yes, the people behind the scenes really intend to do something to Xia Yuanji." But he was a step behind us.

He knew that we were staring at Lord Xia day and night, so there was no chance to make a move.

It wasn't until our surveillance was interrupted that he found an opportunity to steal the account books and put them back when he was done. ”

Ji Changan asked again: "Then why do you say that it wasn't someone from the ministry who did it?"

Fang Zhongjin replied: "Because we started to spy on Xia Yuanji within two or three days after he came to Beijing. And the people behind the scenes were obviously a step slower than us, so they couldn't do it in the first place.

We had to wait until our surveillance was interrupted to get out of the way, and even such a careful guy left some flaws.

If the person behind the scenes has a secret line in the ministry, why didn't Xia Yuanji do it when he first came? Why did he let us seize the opportunity?"

Ji Changan fell into silence, and suddenly he asked, "Why do I think the abilities of the people behind this curtain are sometimes big and sometimes small?"

Although it was a sentence with no beginning or end, Fang Zhongjin empathized and said: "Indeed, I also had such doubts.

This person behind the scenes can spend a lot of money in order to achieve his goals. It seems that he has great hands and eyes, and his ability is very large.

But in other words, if he really has his hands and eyes in the sky, why should he have to use great costs to achieve his goal? There is a better way.

Sometimes, I even feel like the people behind the scenes have disappeared out of thin air.

For example, what happened on Huashan is probably also designed by the people behind the scenes. But he only laid out a lot of plans at the beginning, and in the final stage, he didn't control it at all.

At that time, I didn't pay attention to the person behind the scenes, and if he had done it at the time, things would never have turned out like that. ”

Ji Changan said: "You mean to say that the matter on Huashan was originally planned by the people behind the scenes, but when it came to the future, the people behind the scenes were all handed over to Qiu Songhe like a shopkeeper." That's why this plan failed!"

Fang Zhongjin meditated on the whole thing and said, "It really makes me feel this way." It seems that the people behind the scenes sometimes have the means to reach the sky, and sometimes they are completely unable to control the situation. It's a flickering being. ”

Ji Changan said again: "And he can try to make Bai Suhang commit suicide, but he can't find out when Xia Yuanji came to the capital." So much so that we got a head start. ”

Fang Zhongjin glanced at Ji Changan deeply and continued: "I'm afraid that your father suddenly asked Pu Jinnian to arrest Jiang Dai, also to lure the two of us away. so that his men could infiltrate the treasury of the ministry. ”

This time, Ji Changan was really shocked. He never thought that his father's actions would be engineered.

Ji Changan's eyes showed worry: "Could it be that my father is really ...... It's really ......."

Fang Zhongjin seemed to understand what Ji Changan was afraid of, and comforted: "Your father is definitely not from the people behind the scenes. Otherwise, he and Park Jinnian would not have ended up like this. ”

Fang Zhongjin said with peace of mind, but Ji Changan still glanced at him.

Ji Changan was extremely disgusted with Park Jinnian, and his death was unbelievable for Ji Changan.

And their fathers, Ji Gang and Ji Changan, have also been in trouble over the years. My father had a broken arm and became a cripple, but maybe he could get out of the center of the maelstrom from now on. In Ji Chang's peace of mind, he even faintly felt that he wanted to thank Fang Zhongjin.

Ji Changan may not be very filial to his father, but he still hopes that his father will not get involved in such a matter as "seizing the heir".

As for how miserable the fate of his father and Park Jinnian was, Ji Chang had to scold in peace: Isn't their misery caused by you?

He didn't know that Fang Zhongjin hid some of the remaining speculations and didn't say them.

Ji Changan said again: "Okay, we now know that the opponent is a person who hides from time to time and loves to kill chickens with a knife. So what's next for you?"

Fang Zhongjin said: "Don't do anything in the next step." Stalking is also not necessary. You and I have been busy for so long, we can take a break. “

Ji Chang Anqi said: "What's the matter? Seeing that Xia Da is already under control, why don't we do anything?"

Fang Zhongjin said: "I think the purpose of the people behind the scenes is to use Xia Yuanji, not to kill Xia Yuanji.

As for the Rainberg incident, it may have been an accident. The person behind the scenes originally wanted to use poison to control Ryan Bo, but he didn't expect the other party to be so strong, and he would rather die than give in.

It also reminds those behind the scenes that there is a great risk of exposure to using poison to control opponents. It is precisely because of this that this time he no longer used poison on Xia Yuanji's body, but instead used demagogic patterns. ”

Ji Changan said: "Even if we don't kill Xia Yuanji, we won't do nothing, right?"

Fang Zhongjin sighed: "The matter of us monitoring Xia Yuanji has long been in the eyes of the people behind the scenes. Continuing to spy on the other party will not make a move.

If we give up surveillance, we might be able to get the other side to get the other side to move. ”

Ji Changan nodded and said, "I understand, lead the snake out of the hole and follow the vine to touch the melon!"

Fang Zhongjin smiled: "It's quite smart. ”

In the days that followed, these two people were really like what Fang Zhongjin said, soaking in the Jinyi Guard's yamen all day long and doing nothing.

And the Jinyi guards, who are accustomed to the two of them being elusive and disappearing all day long, are also confused by the second monk.

Time passed day by day, and the two-month deadline was getting tighter and tighter.

Some people even suspect that Fang Zhongjin has given up the pursuit of the person behind the scenes because he has no clues.

Finally, one day, there was an astonishing news all over the capital, as lively as lighting a cannon battle in the streets and alleys in winter.
