Magistrate Lin was in a state of disbelief. He was worried every day and had trouble sleeping and eating.

Chang'an, who had been watching in the dark for several days, said in a disdainful tone: "Master, we haven't done anything yet. The man named Lin can't hide his guilty conscience. In a few days, he may be scared to death by himself."

"Master, we haven't exposed their masks yet? How long will it take?" Chang'an couldn't help but feel a little anxious. He knew clearly that the relief materials were stolen by the corrupt official Lin Zhifu, but he still watched him wandering around every day, which made him feel troubled. Very powerful.

However, Gu Siyuan slowly shook his head and warned Chang An, "It's not the time yet."

As someone close to Gu Siyuan, Chang'an was smart and clever, but more importantly, he was obedient.

"I will definitely obey my master's orders."

But, how long will it take?He couldn't wait to expose the true colors of the corrupt officials in Jiangnan Mansion.

"Master told me, why don't you just wait patiently for a while?" Chang Qing saw her brother's reckless behavior and gave him a gentle lesson. Chang An chuckled, he was used to it, and his sister usually taught him a lot. I have long been accustomed to it.

For two days, there was no special movement at the prince's place. Gu Siyuan also came to visit. When he saw with his own eyes that Gu Siyuan was safe and sound, he congratulated him but couldn't hide his disappointment in his heart.

The plan should have been flawless, but Gu Siyuan was so lucky that he actually escaped from the heavy siege and fell off the cliff, and managed to save his life.

Brothers, friends, and brothers are respectful, but in fact they are just like a mirror, so where can the brotherhood come from in the imperial family?But if you want to compete for that position, there is no sibling argument.

Gu Siyuan also behaved impeccably in front of Gu Siyi, without any anger or resentment, and treated him as usual.

Gu Siyi couldn't help but wonder, could it be possible?He really didn't find out about himself and knew nothing about the truth. Otherwise, why not use this as a reason to attack him?

Is it possible that God is blessing you?gave him a chance,

As everyone knows, Gu Siyuan's waiting is not just to swallow his anger temporarily, but to wait for the fish to take the bait.

Magistrate Lin has Gu Siyuan's secret guards around him all the time, keeping an eye on him. Any disturbance will be reported to Gu Siyuan one by one.

Until today, the prefect came to visit again.

"I pay my respects to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Magistrate Lin did not wear official robes and put on plain white clothes that were completely opposite to his usual fine clothes. He seemed to have lost a lot of weight due to the inner torture of the past few days and being trapped by nightmares day and night. He was almost no longer fat. Ear.

Gu Siyuan said casually: "Prefect Lin is very interested. He will come to visit again in a few days."

"Come here and bring something with you."

Magistrate Lin raised his hands and saluted, and replied with a cheerful smile, "I came with the wishes of everyone in Jiangnan Mansion, and I dare not bear the honor alone. This is a hundred-year-old mountain ginseng gifted by Zhou Mansion, specially sent to His Highness." Nourishing, this is..."

Various rare medicinal materials and ornamental treasures, Gu Siyuan's eyes passed over the items displayed by Magistrate Lin one by one.

It's just a Jiangnan Prefecture. These things that Governor Lin has come up with are probably just the tip of the iceberg. How greedy are they and how many years have they been greedy?He has accumulated tremendous wealth.

"I wonder if His Highness can appreciate the gift?"

"I have good intentions, and I hope that Your Highness will not despise the integrity of the gift."

As soon as the word "incorruptible" came out, Magistrate Lin seemed to be hinting at something.

Gu Siyuan slowly closed the pages of the ancient book in his hand, "Incorruptible?" His eyes were playful.

Catching Gu Siyuan's gaze, Magistrate Lin straightened his back subconsciously and immediately said, "Of course, they are just ordinary things. Your Highness has never seen any treasures in the palace, so naturally he will not like them. It's just It’s just the wishes of the lower officials.”

"I heard that His Highness was injured by bandits. Fortunately, the injury was not serious, but Your Highness must take care of your body. I also want to share your worries for Your Highness."

"Really?" Gu Siyuan leaned back, half leaning on the back of the chair, and said slowly: "Share the worries? According to the prefect's idea, how to share the worries for the orphan?"

Magistrate Lin paused and cautiously raised his head and glanced at Gu Siyuan, "I am willing to relieve His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's worries. His Royal Highness has been worried about the disaster relief issue for many days. I have discussed it with several family squires in the south of the Yangtze River. We all share the same hatred. I am willing to donate generously to the people of Jiangnan."

"What does Prefect Lin mean?"

"Your Majesty sees His Highness worrying about this matter. It is a minister who has neglected his duty. I have come here to ask His Highness to hand over the disaster relief affairs to Jiangnan Mansion and atone for his sins."

The vowed words coupled with Magistrate Lin's pious look, if Gu Siyuan hadn't known his true identity, he would have been completely deceived by this innocent and harmless appearance.

"Master Lin, do you still remember why the previous dynasty was destroyed?"

"The previous dynasty is a matter of the past, and God has destined us to doomed."

Gu Siyuan's dark eyes reflected Magistrate Lin's nervous and unspeakable expression as he pinched the hem of his clothes. The corners of his lips curled up slightly, "Master Lin, the luck of the previous dynasty has been exhausted. Corrupt officials have occupied the whole dynasty. Even if there is a prosperous age, there will be no king and no one to use." People are also helpless.”

"Everyone is thinking about stuffing money into their own pockets, and no one is thinking about the national treasury. The national treasury is empty, natural and man-made disasters occur simultaneously, and the previous dynasty is destroyed."

"Your Highness, it has been a hundred years since the events of the previous dynasty. I am so stupid. I wonder why Your Highness mentioned it?"

Magistrate Lin was pretending to be stupid, but he didn't dare to admit it.
