"What is this?" Jiang Zhan reached out to take the object handed to him by Jiang Si and looked at it carefully.

It was a small piece of bamboo tube with the mouth sealed. Based on his intuition, Jiang Zhan thought there must be something inside.

He couldn't help but gasp and stared at Jiang Si nervously.

Could it be that my sister has fallen for some slut who loves to hang out at brothels? No way!

Jiang Si explained in a low voice: "There is a dark alley behind Bichun Building. Have you noticed it, brother?"

Hiss—Fourth sister even knows about the dark alley? Could it be that she has already dated that bitch?

Jiang Zhan's expression became increasingly ugly.

Few people go to that dark alley. It is said that the old and ugly prostitutes in Bichun Tower would be wrapped in straw mats and quietly taken away from there after they died of illness.

It was only when he accidentally saw someone dragging a drunk man from Bichun Building into the dark alley and beating him up that he noticed the existence of such an alley.

"Brother, you don't know? If that's the case, then I——"

“I know, I know!”

"Then please take the bamboo tube and go to that dark alley and look carefully. There should be a 'bamboo shelter' there.

The so-called "blind bamboo" is a round cylinder about one foot long, usually set up in a remote alley. If someone wants to report the misdeeds of certain officials, they can quietly throw a letter in, and the hidden guards behind the bamboo will come to take it at a certain time.

In the previous life, the Anguo Mansion kept this matter a secret, and the Bo Mansion was suppressed by the grandmother and no news spread out, so naturally there was no one to cause trouble for the Anguo Mansion.

Although the farce in the Anguo Mansion had spread, the officials of the Censorate had gone to court before dark and had not heard of it yet. After a few days, when the matter had died down, even if the officials heard of it, they might not be willing to cause trouble for the Anguo Mansion.

This time, Jiang Shicai didn't want the Anguo Mansion to have an easy time.

There was a censor named Niu Yushi in the Censorate, who was notorious for not being able to be persuaded by soft or hard tactics. After the court session today, he would send his trusted confidant to take the bamboo screen he had set up in the dark alley of Bichun Tower. She asked her brother for help because she wanted to let Niu Yushi bite the Anguo Mansion hard as soon as possible.

She knew that this was not surprising. In her previous life, Niu Yushi impeached the Minister of Rites with a stroke of his pen after he got the Bizhu.

The Minister of Rites was the grandfather of the current Crown Princess. It was later proved that the accusation was a false one, so he was dismissed from office.

Unfortunately, Niu Yushi was a hot-tempered man and he eventually hit a pillar and died. However, once Niu Yushi died, he had offended many people during his lifetime, and the fate of the family left behind, with orphans and widows, is imaginable.

It was not until the crown prince committed a crime and was deposed that the conspiracy against Niu Yushi was exposed, but the tragedy was already irreversible.

Jiang seemed to think that given Niu Yushi's impatience, he would be happy to tell the emperor about the farce in the Duke of Anguo's Mansion.

As long as the emperor knew about Ji Chongyi's suicide for love with a woman, it would be a luxury for the third son of the Ji family to marry a girl from a prominent family again. In the end, he might end up marrying Qiao Niang, so he should not harm other girls.

Jiang Si felt that he was quite considerate because he could not only save Niu Yushi's life, but also help a pair of lovers to be together.

"What is Bizhu?" Jiang Zhan looked confused.

Jiang Si looked at his brother and sighed.

It’s still the familiar recipe, it’s still the familiar taste, and her brother is still so ignorant!

After explaining clearly what "Bizhu" is, Jiang Zhan looked excited: "There is actually such an interesting thing. If I had known earlier, I would have written a letter to try it out."

"Second brother, please don't do anything rash. Many people regard letters that expose people's evil deeds as a scourge. If they are circulated and someone sees the handwriting, it will cause trouble."

"Is that so?" Jiang Zhan shook his head regretfully.

"Brother, go quickly. Otherwise, grandma will call uncle back before the impeachment of the Duke of Anguo's Mansion. Grandma and uncle have always made decisions on important matters in the mansion. I think uncle will definitely not be happy with me breaking off the engagement."

"Don't worry, sister. I'll go right away and won't let you down!"

"Brother, take these two wooden chopsticks and remember to pick out the small bamboo tube at the top of the bamboo cover."

The small bamboo tube on the top contains the letter that reports on the Minister of Rites.

"Why?"

"I'll explain it to my second brother later. It's too late now."

At Jiang Si's urging, Jiang Zhan immediately forgot his curiosity, stuffed the small bamboo tube into his arms, and left in a hurry.

Jiang Si couldn't help but laugh.

It’s good that my brother is like this. No matter how curious he is, he will forget it as soon as he turns around.

Jiang Zhan carried the bamboo tube in his arms and hurried to Bichun Tower without delay.

There's no way, who made him so familiar with the place?

Bichun Building is the quietest in the morning. The main door is closed and the big red lanterns hanging under the eaves have been extinguished long ago. They sway slightly in the wind, looking listless.

During the day, people in the building are catching up on their sleep. When the lights come on, the whole Bichun Building is ablaze with light and becomes lively again.

Jiang Zhan followed Jiang Si's instructions and went into the dark alley, and indeed found the bamboo shelter in a place with mottled green bricks.

He first used wooden chopsticks to pick out a small bamboo tube from the opening of the bamboo screen, and then stuffed the bamboo tube he brought into the screen. Having completed the task, Jiang Zhan should have retired, but he rolled his eyes and climbed up a big tree at the foot of the wall.

It was summer, and the tree was lush and leafy, completely obscuring his figure.

Jiang Zhan was sitting on a tree branch, waiting until he was almost sleepy, when he suddenly heard light footsteps.

His sleepiness was immediately driven away, and he quietly parted the leaves and looked down.

A young man with delicate features looked around and slipped in along the wall. When he came to Bizhu, he took Bizhu down while looking back. After holding Bizhu in his arms, he immediately ran away.

Jiang Zhan stroked his chin and muttered to himself: "Someone actually comes to take the bamboo at this time."

How did the fourth sister know?

But my sister has been smart since she was young, so it's not surprising that she knows more than him.

Jiang Zhan was about to jump down when he heard footsteps again.

He was startled and quickly shrank back.

The footsteps were lighter than those of the previous person, and the movements were more agile. He quickly came to the place where the bamboo shield was originally placed like a dragon, staring at the hole left behind with a gleam in his eyes.

Why is there another person here? What group are they from?

Jiang Zhan pondered secretly.

Suddenly, the man raised his head, his eyes like a knife piercing through the branches and leaves, and met Jiang Zhan's eyes.

A strong murderous intent instantly enveloped his whole body, and Jiang Zhan's scalp instinctively felt numb.

He can't see me, he can't see me.

Jiang Zhan convinced himself silently, and when he recited it for the third time, he suddenly jumped down from the tree and ran away.

It's better not to deceive yourself at this time, the best thing to do is to run away!

The man moved as fast as lightning, put his hand on Jiang Zhan's shoulder and pulled him back.

Seeing that there was no hope of escape, Jiang Zhan had no time to regret and turned around to fight.

As a dude who often gets into trouble, knowing both skills is a must.

However, when facing a real master, Jiang Zhan finally realized the gap between a master and a bunch of bad friends.

That's a galaxy away.

His hands and feet were restrained almost instantly, and then a cold light flashed before his eyes.

Oh my god, he hasn’t paid back the money he owes to Zuixiaolou yet!
