âYou all seem to be highly skilled in martial arts. If you want to find evidence, you can just sneak in, right?â Gu Yundongwas so angry that she laughed. âIâm a weak woman, and you actually handed the most important thing to me? Do you think Iâm too good-looking and want others to chop me into pieces?â Mo Xulin was speechless. Miss, donât feel so good about yourself, alright?
He coughed lightly and said, âThe Xin residence is heavily guarded. Itâs naturally not a problem for us to sneak in, but itâs easy to alert the enemy.â Heavily guarded? Didnât her father, Gu Dajiang, sneak in?
No, Gu Dajiang could only ask around outside. He couldnât go to the masterâs courtyard, let alone the places where evidence was placed.
Mo Xulin continued, âActually, itâs not like no one has infiltrated the Xin family before. They even entered Master Xinâs study, but thereâs nothing in the study. If we want to find evidence of guilt, Iâm afraid a few days wonât be enough.â If you canât find it in the study, do you think I can?
âOnce we alert the enemy, the Xin family will be easy. We can just capture them anyway, but the forces in the capital that colluded with the Xin family will be on guardâ¦â
Gu Yundong was enlightened. âAre you making such a big move this time? It wonât be easy to clean up the mess.â
So, what the emperor really wanted to deal with were those people in the capital?
All the more reason for her not to get involved.
Mo Xulin lowered his eyes. He could not say anything in front of Gu Yundong. However, seeing that she was unwilling, he immediately thought of what Qin Wenzheng had said. He could only take a step back and say, âMiss Gu, if youâre really unwilling, then⦠can you figure out the approximate location of the important letters in the Xin residence?â Seeing that Gu Yundong wanted to refute, he immediately added, âLord Qin said that since Miss Gu has the ability to obtain the news that Xin Zhiyuan colluded with another country, you can definitely do these things.â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âHe really thinks highly of me.â
âLord Qin also said that if Miss makes a great contribution and the Xin family is raided later, Miss can choose a few valuable items firstâ¦â
Gu Yundong stood up. âAlright, Iâll go back and think about it.â
She kept the letter and turned to leave the small courtyard.
When the others saw this, they looked at each other and asked Mo Xulin, âDid she agree or not?â
Mo Xulin was unfathomable. âWhat do you think?â However, he quickly restrained his expression. âInform the Duan family and ask them to cooperate with us if necessary.â
âShould we inform Commander Liu of Wanqing Prefecture?â One had to bring troops over to arrest a family. âItâs said that Commander Liu doesnât have a good relationship with the prefecture magistrate. Perhaps he can help.â
However, Mo Xulin shook his head. âItâs hard to say if theyâre not on good terms. Maybe theyâre just putting on a show for us. Third Brother has already gone elsewhere to mobilize troops. Letâs wait a few more days.â
âYes.â
The others in the courtyard quickly went to work.
Gu Yundong felt a headache when she returned to the inn. Qin Wenzheng was indeed unreliable.
However, although she was cursing Qin Wenzheng in her heart, her mind still started to spin.
In the following days, Gu Yundong was very busy.
Tong Shuitao did not know what she was doing. In any case, she would do whatever Young Miss instructed her to do.
Gu Dajiang was a little worried. He had once asked Gu Yundong, but she said that it was for business.
Only Xue Rong started to feel uneasy.
A few days later, when he saw Gu Yundong writing the names of everyone in the Xin family on paper in the room, his thoughts were finally confirmed. He had a feeling that it was just as he expected.
