That night, Qin Mubai asked Liao Lirong to draw on his confession, and rushed back to Jishan County overnight. Datang's judicial system can be regarded as perfect. Except for the yamen of various prefectures and counties, Dali Temple, and Yushitai, other institutions and individuals cannot set up private courts to inquire about cases. But Qin Mubai is a special case. He is a person sent by the emperor, so it means that he is sent by Yu Shi. When the imperial mission arrived, the officials at all levels saw the emperor face to face.

Taking a confession and taking good care of the witnesses, Qin Mubai still had some doubts in his heart: even Liao Lirong didn't know where the ledger was, so where would it go? The more mysterious it is, the more it shows its value. It now appears that this case has actually come to the fore. Only a piece of the emperor’s imperial order can arrest Shengnanhou Zhang Tianci and Jiangzhou governor Cheng Songnian.

But Qin Mubai always feels vaguely that this case is not as simple as it seems. What mystery is hidden in a mysteriously missing account book? Could it be that this ledger has already been obtained by Cheng Songnian, or doesn't exist at all?

On the way back, Qin Mubai and Chen Yan were still sitting in the carriage, and the others followed on horseback. Qin Mubai thought about the case for himself, while Chen Yan closed her eyes and did not say anything. The two barely said a word along the way.

It's almost the town of Jishan County. It's about to dawn.

"Chen Yan, here it is." Qin Mubai said, "Are you really going to follow me? The barracks are full of men, so it is inconvenient."

"Who do you think would dare to provoke me?" Chen Yan sneered casually, "Besides, I am the righteous sister of General Qin, who dares to provoke me?"

"You are clever. Just leave it with you. In fact, I can rest assured that I bring you by my side, lest you go to seek revenge with Sheng Nanhou and others." Qin Mubai said as he got out of the car.

"I would like to follow, if you want to bring it, then it is inconvenient, why bother with such nonsense." Chen Yan also followed and got out of the car.

There are more than 5,000 troops stationed in Jiangzhou Prefecture’s Fubingjun Tunli, and the scale is not small. Although it was a temporary military camp, it was still ten-mile-round and the tower was high, and there was a steady flow of horses and vehicles carrying military resources.

It was the first time Chen Yan came to this kind of place, and couldn't help but look around and look more. Those big soldiers nestled in the barracks all day, and saw that almost all chickens and ducks were females. At this moment, they suddenly saw a stunning beauty whose eyes almost showed green light. If it weren't for her to follow Qin Mubai, she would have been swallowed by a group of men who were hungry and thirsty.

"Man, it's not a good thing!" Chen Yan uttered a low voice, obviously a little annoyed.

"Isn't it the woman's fault?" Qin Mubai smiled, "Don't say it, Wu Wang's account is here."

In the camp where the Li character flag is flying high, much taller and magnificent than the general military account, Li Ke sits upright, listening to the soldiers and officials under his command, reporting on the recent disaster relief efforts. At this time, the doorman came to report, saying that Qin Mubai was back and begged to see King Wu.

"Oh, Mu Bai is back, let him in." Li Ke said casually.

Qin Mubai walked in with Chen Yan. When everyone saw Chen Yan, they were suddenly surprised. One is amazing, and the other is confusing-Qin Mubai disappeared for two days, why suddenly brought a woman into the barracks?

"I have seen your Royal Highness." Qin Mubai bowed and shouted to Chen Yan, "Still stunned, come and bow to your Royal Highness!" Chen Yan gave Qin Mubai a low stare and took a step forward. Raised the sword and clasped his fist to give a salute: "I have seen His Royal Highness King Wu."

"Oh, who is this?" Li Ke asked with a deliberate sneer.

"The minister asked for leave yesterday in order to pick her up." Qin Mubai said, "This is the righteous sister of the minister, Chen Yan. Let me see you!"

"Don't dare, don't dare!" When it heard that it was Qin Mubai's "righteous sister", the officials present changed their faces and respected Chen Yan, and hurriedly bowed their hands in salute.

"Yes, righteous sister!... A chivalrous righteous sister, not bad, not bad." Li Ke smiled warmer and waved his hand, "Wait, let's get back!"

The officials retired wisely, leaving only three people in the account.

"Mu Bai, you are not bad!" Li Ke stood up and walked to Chen Yan, walked around her two times to look at it carefully, and smiled, "I just went out for a day or two, and then he turned off. Yimei is back. Development is so fast!"

"His Royal Highness, you misunderstood!" Qin Mubai smiled bitterly and shook his head, just waiting to argue, Chen Yan spoke up.

"His Royal Highness Wu is an emperor and noble prince. Isn't it because he doesn't pretend to be state affairs and only has some romantic thoughts?" Chen Yan sneered and said, "I don't know what is righteousness in the temple? It is his righteousness. Sister, but worthy of this meaning!"

Li Ke's expression was stagnant in embarrassment, and he coughed dryly: "Mu Bai, your girl... with sharp lips and sharp lips, it's spicy enough!"

"Her sword is probably more powerful than her tongue." Qin Mubai smiled, "So, your Royal Highness can provoke anyone, but don't provoke her. I'm not hiding from you, just tell you the truth-this One is the widow of Zhu Chengwen, the magistrate of Jishan County."

"What?" Li Ke was taken aback, and hurriedly changed his face and bowed his hand to Chen Yan. "It turns out to be the wife of my wife. Xiao Wang is not aware of it, and the words are frivolous and offensive. Please forgive me!" /

Actually, with Li Ke’s dignity, you probably don’t have to be polite to a county magistrate. But the dead are great, and the survivors are respected. Paying great attention to etiquette, a prince Li Ke molested other widows, it is not so nice to pass the general out.

"His Royal Highness does not have to be so polite." Chen Yan said coldly, "I'm just a crude woman who walks the rivers and lakes. I don't know the manners, and I can't be regarded as a great gift from Your Highness."

Qin Mubai curled his lips at Li Ke: "The children of the rivers and lakes do not stick to the trivial, so your Royal Highness will get used to it slowly."

"Cough!..." Li Ke coughed dryly, and turned away from the subject: "What are the gains of Mu Bai's trip?"

"It's acceptable." Qin Mubai showed Liao Lirong's confession to Li Ke and said, "It's just that the account book still doesn't know where, even Liao Lirong doesn't know. Your Highness, would it not be like this? What about his account book? In other words, Cheng Songnian and others have already smuggled and smuggled this important piece of evidence, or has it been destroyed?"

"It's hard to say..." Li Ke wrinkled his brows and said, "I just want to be foolproof. In fact, without this account book, their crimes are also confirmed and non-repudiation. It is just that the money allocated by the court is It is necessary to find out wherever a penny goes. If there is such an account book, it is likely to involve many people. If it falls into the hands of evil people, it will be infinitely harmful. It is worse than this. We will take the initiative."

"His Royal Highness thought carefully and made sense." Qin Mubai nodded in agreement. If the important material evidence of such a huge brown case is held by someone with bad intentions and knows the secret, they can use it to blackmail many people. Who knows how many officials and small officials were involved in this case? Who could have imagined that this mere account book will cause another storm in the future?

Li Ke pondered for a moment and said to Chen Yan: "Mrs. Sister-in-law, do you have any important things to give you before your husband's death?"

"You want to ask me if I have hidden this account book?" Chen Yan slightly raised her chin at Qin Mubai, "He has already asked, so please don't bother your Highness."

Li Ke looked at Qin Mubai, who shook his head.

"So now, I hope that there is no such book in the world, or we can find him as soon as possible." Li Ke sighed slowly and said leisurely.

It seems that he, like Qin Mubai, has a somewhat vague premonition for this ledger.

A moment later, when the three of them were sitting in their tents drinking tea and resting, the little **** came to report that Jiangzhou Shengnanhou was visiting.

"He actually came to the door on his own initiative?" Qin Mubai asked in a bit of surprise, "I don't have the courage."

Chen Yan let out a cold snort and squeezed the sword in her hand tighter.

"Why don't you avoid it?" Qin Mubai said, "I sent someone to assign you a military account, and you will rest there."

"I will send two more eunuchs to serve you." Li Ke said.

"No need. I am used to being alone." Chen Yan got up and left.

"Really a woman with personality." Qin Mubai and Li Ke shook their heads and smiled.

Shengnan Hou entered the king's account and bowed to Li Ke in full courtesy. He looked like he was in his mid-30s, of medium build, not ugly or disgusting in appearance, and his expression was very low-key and courteous. After being given a seat by Li Ke, he looked sincere and flattered. Although he was sitting on his knees, his body was straight.

"Sheng Nanhou is really interested." Li Ke said with a smile, "This king has been in Jiangzhou for two months. Although this is the first time I have seen you in Jiangzhou, I have heard of you for a long time. This time Jiangzhou. Unfortunately, you have already donated countless grains, rice, and cold clothes. You have also called on the squires of Honshu County to assist the court in disaster relief. The first of Guizhou's contributions will be in Sheji! After the dynasty returns to the dynasty, he will definitely help you in front of his father. Please reward!"

"Your Highness is absurdly praised!" Shengnan Hou Zhang Tianci hurriedly arched his hand to Li Ke, and said in a cautious and soft voice, "Xiaohou's everything is rewarded by the emperor, and now Jiangzhou is suffering from disaster, that is the emperor The children are in distress. The chicks still know how to feed back, so Xiaohou deserves to do such a thing."

"Okay. Shengnanhou is indeed a good minister." Li Ke smiled appreciatively, "Come and see!"

An **** walked out carrying a tray of yellow and white things and placed it at the table of Zhang Tianci.

"This...Xiao Hou dare not receive the reward." Zhang Tianci laughed, as if he was a little honest and embarrassed, and waved his hand again and again, "Xiao Hou is not short of money. His Royal Highness still rewards those who have worked hard. People of disaster relief!"

Qin Mubai stood beside Li Ke with a sword, and couldn't help but sneer in his heart: This man is quite good at acting. The deceiving style must have been well-trained. Appears to be loyal and good, but in reality it is a false one. If it weren't for him, it would be easy to be fooled by his appearance!
