The guard guarding the gate was quite vigilant, and immediately brought Wang Wanyi to Mingzhi's study.

After Chu Yaoguang and Mingzhi learned of Wang Wanyi's sudden visit, they didn't dare to delay and hurried to the study.

Inside the study.

Wang Wanyi was sitting on a carved armchair with her head down, unable to see the specific emotions clearly.

"Master Wang, why are you here?" Mingzhi stood at the door of the study and asked with a smile.

Wang Wanyi raised her head, opened her mouth to speak, saw Chu Yaoguang standing behind Mingzhi with sharp eyes, and stopped her mouth again.

"Master Ming, do you have time to have a private conversation with the lower officials?" Wang Wanyi asked, staring at Mingzhi.

Ming Zhi said: "Huai Shan is not a foreigner..."

Chu Yaoguang nodded happily, and she winked at Mingzhi: "Since that's the case, Huaishan will go and make a pot of tea for you two."

After finishing speaking, she nodded and stepped back very respectfully.

After disappearing from the sight of the two, Chu Yaoguang tiptoed back.

She squatted halfway outside the wooden window of the study, listening to the conversation inside.

The tea maker is "Huai Shan", so what does it have to do with her, Chu Yaoguang?

Wang Wanyi closed her eyes and said wearily, "Master Ming, you have won."

Mingzhi raised her eyebrows in surprise.

It seemed that she didn't understand what Wang Wanyi meant.

Wang Wanyi kept holding a breath in her heart, but she couldn't express it to Mingzhi, who was much higher than her official position, she could only swallow it.

She twitched the corners of her mouth: "You don't have to put on a show anymore, since the next official has come, I won't regret it anymore."

"You are really good at it."

Mingzhi smiled and said, "Master Wang is too famous."

If Wang Wanyi knew that it was a little girl's method that put her in a dilemma, she would be even more angry.

"I'm willing to help you find out about corruption and taxation, and I'm willing to help you bring down Tang Qingyun, but you also have to agree to a few conditions." Wang Wanyi said.

Mingzhi said: "Please tell me."

"First of all, we must ensure the safety of the officials and their families." Wang Wanyi secretly observed Mingzhi's expression.

What frustrates her is that she can't observe anything from Mingzhi's calm face.

"Secondly, when His Majesty the Emperor is dealing with the matter of Guixia County, please say a few words for the lower official, so that the lower official will not lose his head." Wang Wanyi said.

Mingzhi said: "Is there any more?"

Wang Wanyi bowed her head: "Finally, the next official will communicate with the third princess."

Mingzhi subconsciously said: "Third Princess is..."

Wang Wanyi interrupted her: "I hope you don't refuse, saying that you can't get in touch with the third emperor's daughter, etc., even if the third emperor's daughter ignores business and likes to travel, she will definitely not refuse a letter from a royal doctor."

And she had seen the letter sent to the third princess in Xinting.

Mingzhi smiled and said: "I can agree to all three things, but, Mr. Wang, you must also show your sincerity."

Wang Wanyi looked at Mingzhi's face.

Mingzhi smiled slightly.

Wang Wanyi pursed her lips and lowered her voice: "The ledgers you are inquiring about now are all fabricated by Tang Qingyun's envoys. The real ledgers that record corruption and taxes are in Tang Qingyun's hands."

Mingzhi was shocked: "Do you know where it is?"

Wang Wanyi shook her head.

Mingzhi couldn't help being disappointed: "Then do you have any doubts?"

Wang Wanyi whispered: "There are several places."

Mingzhi said: "Please tell me."

"The first place is naturally Tang Qingyun's bedroom. Her bedroom is never allowed to enter. Even if the ledger is not in it, there are probably many secrets hidden. The second place..."

Wang Wanyi is quite cautious. When telling these confidential things, the volume kept dropping.

In the end, except for the two people in the study, the people outside couldn't hear clearly even if they stretched their ears.

In order to hear what she said, Chu Yaoguang pressed his whole body against the wall.

Even so, only a few words can be vaguely heard.

Chu Yaoguang gritted his teeth.

The ears pressed closer to the window.

"...she likes to deal with official business in the study, the study..."

heard it!

Chu Yaoguang was overjoyed.

His feet were unsteady, and his head hit the window heavily.

Chu Yaoguang: "..."

"Who?"

Wang Wanyi's alert voice came from the study.

Chu Yaoguang covered his face.

She simply opened the window from the outside, waved to the two people inside, and smiled politely: "Don't be too nervous, it's me."

Wang Wanyi looked at her with no warmth in her eyes: "Master Ming, are you sure this person is really your daughter?"

Mingzhi: "..."

Chu Yaoguang: "..."

Although, Chu Yaoguang is indeed not Mingzhi's daughter.

Mingzhi rubbed his nose: "Master Wang, she has no problem, she basically knows about my business."

Hearing this, Wang Wanyi looked at Chu Yaoguang with a much more complicated look, and her expression also fluctuated.

Chu Yaoguang climbed into the study room by the window, closed the window, and said seriously: "Go on, go on, this time there will be absolutely no one eavesdropping outside."

Wang Wanyi said: "Master Ming, Miss Ming, although I have no room to comment, but you don't want to deceive me by being a fool."

Chu Yaoguang was silent for a while.

She hinted: "One of the conditions put forward by the sheriff just now is whether he wants to correspond with me."

Wang Wanyi: "!!!"

Wang Wanyi stammered: "You, you are..."

Chu Yaoguang smiled slightly: "I am the identity you think of."

Wang Wanyi's complexion changed from skeptical of life to bewildered at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Looking at the smiling Chu Yaoguang, she felt that her brain was on fire.

Miss Ming is actually the third princess? !

Miss Ming, who is commensurate with Mingzhi's mother and daughter, is His Royal Highness the Third Emperor? !

Who the hell would have thought wow!

Wang Wanyi knelt down abruptly: "I don't know your identity, I offended you very much earlier, and I hope Your Highness the Third Emperor will forgive you."

"It's okay, it's okay, you don't know, it's no fault if you don't know." Chu Yaoguang helped Wang Wanyi very gently.

Wang Wanyi's eyes drifted for a moment: "His Royal Highness the Third Emperor is right."

Chu Yaoguang said: "Let's get down to business, let's deal with the business first, and Mr. Lao County Sheriff will explain to me a few places where the account book may be hidden."

Wang Wanyi bowed respectfully: "Yes."

There are three places that Wang Wanyi suspects.

The first is Tang Qingyun's bedroom, the second is Tang Qingyun's study, and the third is Tang Qingyun's warehouse.

Wang Wanyi explained: "Tang Qingyun is conceited and confident, and she always does things by herself. Her important things must be placed in the safest place."

Chu Yaoguang asked, "Have you seen the ledger?"

It was just a casual question without any hope, but Wang Wanyi nodded seriously.

Chu Yaoguang was startled: "What does it look like?"

"The cover is black, with the character 'Tang' embroidered with gold thread on the lower right corner, I've only seen it twice." Wang Wanyi said.

Chu Yaoguang said: "Very useful clues, thank you."

She couldn't help but rejoice that they pulled Wang Wanyi into the water.

Otherwise, even if Tang Qingyun was caught, she might not be able to get evidence to punish her.

Mingzhi asked: "Now that you have known the location and specific appearance of the ledger, when will His Highness plan to do it?"
