Wanglai Pawnshop.
The shopkeeper looked at Li Afu who was leaving with a gloomy and dark face.
"Shopkeeper, this servant from the Shen family is too arrogant. What was that tone of voice just now? He actually dared to order you around without even knowing his own weight." The waiter next to the shopkeeper said angrily.
The shopkeeper snorted coldly: "Like master, like dog!"
"Who made the master still need the one from the Shen family?"
"Are we really going to assassinate the prefect?"
The shopkeeper pondered for a moment, then glanced at the seal on the letter. Finally, he said coldly, "Go and have someone arrange it..."
That night.
The prefect was assassinated in his home.
Of course, Shen Li didn't know about these things yet. After returning to Li Afu, he asked him, "How is it?"
Li Afu nodded immediately: "I agreed. The shopkeeper said it's no problem. Let him arrange everything, but..."
After some hesitation, Li Ahfu leaned in closer and whispered, "It's just that when I left, I deliberately slowed down my pace. At the shopkeeper's door, I heard him giving instructions to his companions. It seemed that he was going to prepare to assassinate the prefect and take back the account book."
"Assassination?"
Shen Li was very surprised, but thinking of the subordinate's style of doing things, he frowned slightly and said no more.
"Master, is this matter resolved?"
"Is there anything else I need to do?" Li Afu asked.
Chen Li looked at Li Afu's loyal face and was satisfied with his work these days. "You've done a good job. Just pay more attention to this matter in the next few days."
"yes."
Li Ahfu nodded respectfully and said, "If you have nothing else to do, I'd like to go to Muzhaiyuan."
"Going to Muzhaiyuan?"
"Yes, I heard from my mother that after the old lady came back, she was very angry and locked up Madam Liu. She also asked my mother to investigate everyone in the Mu Zhai Courtyard. My mother asked me to go to the Mu Zhai Courtyard to help out when I have time."
Shen Licai then remembered that Li Hu had stolen from the private treasury.
In fact, Shen Li always felt that something was wrong about this matter. How could Li Hu have the ability to steal the entire private vault by himself overnight?
Even with help.
It's impossible to penetrate the inner chambers and steal the entire private vault without alerting anyone! !
There's something very wrong.
But when he got the news, the old lady had already been arrested. If he was really convicted of deceiving the emperor and disobeying the order, killing the old lady would be a small matter. I am afraid that the entire Shen family would have to be beheaded or exiled.
In desperation, he could only imitate his grandfather's handwriting to make a temporary account book.
He wrote down the items inside after specifically asking Aunt Liu.
Emperor Wenyuan knew his grandfather's handwriting, and he was afraid that the account book would reveal flaws when it came in front of Emperor Wenyuan, so he wanted to get the account book back.
But now he thought of something more serious.
"Afu, hurry up and push me to Muzhaiyuan."
Mu Zhaiyuan.
When Yin Shi saw Shen Li coming, she, who was picking her fingernails out of boredom, immediately stood up and said happily, "Li'er, why are you here?"
"Mother, is Grandma feeling better?"
Yin thought of the old lady's energetic appearance after she came back, so energetic that she could have smashed countless cups and plates. Without thinking, she said, "She's fine! She was just pretending to faint before, so you don't have to worry. Just now, she smashed a few vases, sold off several maids, and even had Aunt Liu dragged away and locked up."
Thinking of the old lady's murderous eyes, Yin felt very scared.
