None of Chu Mo and his party felt sleepy that night, and their moods were a little heavy.

Chu Mo was thinking about how to deal with the affairs in Jiangzhou next. If his guess was true, how should he deal with those people to quell the public complaints.

If your guess is true, after thorough investigation, it will definitely be made public. Such an action will inevitably cause public resentment, so it must be handled with caution. As the old saying goes, water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it!

Shang Que is not ashamed of what these people did. They made the people of Jiangzhou City suffer because of their own selfishness!

They are both second-level Jinshi, are also officials, and are also the prefect of a state. The difference between Lin Yuanzhuo and Tian Yu is really huge!

A man who wholeheartedly serves the people is a rare good official! A selfish person who has become a worm to the country for his own benefit!

Li Ziyu was wondering if he could use some of the forces here.

On the second day, Shang Que began to arrange people to conduct a thorough investigation of the wealthy businessmen in Jiangzhou City without stopping.

Li Ziyu started visiting places around the Lin family...

Chu Mo was checking the food prices in Jiangzhou City in recent years and whether General Liu of Jiangzhou Military Camp was complicit with these people. After all, the people guarding the Jiangzhou Granary were all from Jiangzhou Military Camp.

Qiao Zhen and others are not in a hurry to return to Beijing, and the same goes for Zhang Yan. He cannot ignore the current situation in Yuhua Pavilion, so he is not in a hurry to return to Beijing.

After nightfall that day, Li Ziyu went into his room after dinner, changed into night clothes that were easier to move around, and went out.

In Chu Mo's room, Shang Que and others were also discussing things.

On the other side, Li Ziyu came to Lin's Mansion quietly, first climbed over the wall and entered Lin's Mansion, and then dodged the patrolling servants and reached Lin Yuanzhuo's study.

Then Chu Mo took out the luminous pearl that Zhang Yan asked for, but he disposed of it after it got into Li Ziyu's hands. At this time, it could only illuminate the place in front of Li Ziyu, and it would not be too eye-catching. It also makes it easier for him to do things.

He first looked through Lin Yuanzhuo's desk. When he found nothing useful, he restored the desk to its original state, and then began to rummage on the bookshelf.

It's just that Lin Yuanzhuo's study has a lot of books and a lot of bookshelves. It won't be possible to find them all in a short time. Moreover, Li Ziyu has to remember the original appearance of the bookshelf before starting to start. After searching, he has to move himself. bookshelf restored.

At the same time, Li Ziyu had to pay attention to the movements outside, so the search speed was not very fast, and although they suspected that Lin Yuanzhuo was colluding with Jiangzhou Mansion.

But it is not easy to find evidence. After all, this is a business of exterminating families and exterminating families...

At this moment, voices came from outside the study. Li Ziyu quickly put away the luminous pearl in his hand, and then disappeared into the shadows.

After a cup of tea, it gradually became quiet outside the study, and Li Ziyu breathed a sigh of relief.

It was the first time I did this kind of thing, so I was a little nervous. I thought that if it were Senior Uncle Xiao or Senior Brother Xiao who did this kind of thing, he would definitely be able to do it easily.

You will definitely not be as timid as you are! It is a pity that Master Xiao lives in seclusion in Zhuozhou. Senior Brother Xiao is either out training or accompanying Master Xiao in Zhuozhou.

He waited for a while to make sure there was no movement outside before continuing what he should do.

Half an hour later, Li Ziyu rummaged through the entire bookshelf in the study room during several patrols by the Lin family's servants, but still couldn't find what he was looking for.

I remembered that someone had told me that these officials like to have some ornaments in their study rooms. Some would set up dark rooms or secret compartments in their study rooms, and then set up mechanisms in the ornaments to hide them from others.

So Li Ziyu started to check all the ornaments in Lin Yuanzhuo's study, but the result made him a little disappointed. These ornaments were really just ornaments, and the results were very different from what he thought.

Li Ziyu sighed. In this cold winter night, there was a slight sweat on his forehead. He wiped away the sweat with a helpless smile.

Once again, he concentrated on observing the entire room. After looking back and forth several times, he fixed his gaze on a portrait of Saint Kong on the wall.

The portrait was in the middle of the entire wall. At first glance, there seemed to be nothing unusual about it, but if you looked closely, you felt something was wrong.

Li Ziyu has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and what he reads can only be regarded as some words in poetry. Therefore, he does not understand many literati styles, but he just feels that something is wrong. As for what is wrong, he cannot say.

He held the luminous pearl and looked up and down, reflecting on the fact that he was holding the luminous pearl for illumination and his position.

Because after he changed his angle, the wrong thing disappeared. When he stood back to the original place, the feeling of disobedience returned!

So Li Ziyu walked straight to the portrait and carefully observed the portrait before he started to take action. He carefully opened the portrait.

Sure enough, he found a secret compartment on the wall under the portrait. After Li Ziyu opened the secret compartment, he saw several bound booklets and letters inside.

Li Ziyu took a book and looked at it, and found that it was exactly what he was looking for. He took out all the books and letters, and then restored the hidden grids and portraits to their original state.

Then he put all those things into his arms. While breathing a sigh of relief, he walked to the door and put his ear against the door to listen to what was going on outside.

After confirming that there was no movement outside, he quickly opened the door and went out. After taking a few steps, he saw a fire not far away.

Li Ziyu quickly ducked down, hid herself under the flower bed, and waited quietly with bated breath.

After those people passed by, Li Ziyu came out to continue, but his luck was not very good tonight. He didn't go far when he heard the commotion in the Lin Mansion getting louder.

This made him wonder if he had been discovered? Otherwise, I would have stayed up most of the night and made such a big noise.

Li Ziyu moved carefully, trying to keep herself in the shadows, while not forgetting to pay attention to the movements of the Lin Mansion.

After almost a stick of incense, he finally understood why there was such a big commotion in the Lin family. It turned out that the young master of the Lin family had a fever for unknown reasons and alerted the people in the house.

When Li Ziyu finally moved to a place not far from the wall, he saw Lin Yuanzhuo walking towards him with the Lin Mansion's housekeeper. Li Ziyu secretly thought that it was bad luck and hid in resignation.

Seeing that Lin Yuanzhuo and the housekeeper had already passed by his eyes, a dog barked at Li Ziyu from someone who didn't know where it came from.

Li Ziyu secretly sighed that he was not lucky tonight, so he immediately picked up his body and ran straight out of the wall, disappearing in the blink of an eye!

When the dog barked and rushed to the wall, Li Ziyu had already disappeared on top of the wall of Lin Mansion.

Even though Li Ziyu was very fast, he was still seen by Lin Yuanzhuo and the housekeeper.

When Lin Yuanzhuo saw that an unidentified person appeared in his house, he was so worried that he couldn't care about anything else. He ordered the housekeeper to lead people to chase him, and hurried to his study.

The housekeeper quickly ordered his servants to chase after...
