Chapter 221 He Kuan's hidden account book
"No matter how hard a woman is, her lips are soft."
Li Yi licked his lips, feeling quite contented.
Although he fainted and kissed Yun Zhaozhao for a moment, he didn't know what the consequences would be, but he felt happy.
It's so exciting to run away when you feel good.
Li Yi had already seen the plaque of Miaoyu Pavilion and strode into it.
"Young Master Li, you are here. I'm waiting so hard." Suddenly, a fragrant wind blew, and a charming woman came in front of me.
The woman looks pretty, wearing a light veil, has a convex figure, and a deep groove on her chest.
"You are..." Li Yi only felt that this woman looked familiar, and she couldn't remember her name for a while.
The woman was stunned and wanted to cry: "Sure enough, only the courtesan girl is worthy of the character like the young master. My appearance as a puppet will not be able to get into the young master's eyes."
Li Yi was stunned for a moment, staring at her amazing career line for a while, and suddenly remembered that this wasn’t the Wenxiang girl who lived a comfortable summer than others?
Li Yi quickly apologized: "Oh, it turns out to be Miss Wenxiang. Please forgive me for being rude. It's because I haven't slept all night and I feel a little dizzy.
A person like a girl who is particularly conspicuous when placed in the crowd, how could he not be able to get into the eyes of ordinary people like me?"
In addition to Aci and Xiao Qiaoer, you are indeed the most conspicuous among the women I know... Li Yi thought silently.
Wenxiang climbed Li Yi's arm enthusiastically and said coquettishly: "Young Master is saying boring compliments again. The young master had promised to have wine and tea with me before. As a result, every time I came to Miaoyu Pavilion, I either investigated the case or ran into Miss Feng's room. How could I care about me, a miserable person?"
Wenxiang has always been paying attention to Li Yi, but at that time there was the depressed person who made all women look overshadowed. She did not dare to get involved with Li Yi in order to avoid causing humiliation.
Now that she has left, she has become brave again.
Wen Xiang coughed lightly, showing a thoughtful posture: "Young master, your eyes are so red. Could it be that you really haven't slept all night?"
Li Yi sighed: "I thought about some troublesome things and took it all night to figure it out. It's so sad."
Wenxiang hurriedly asked, "What do you mean by your son? You might as well say to me. Although I have no talent or virtue, I also have a sincere heart and I am willing to share my worries for you."
"I dare not bother the girl, I have almost thought about those things." Li Yi declined.
Wen Xiang sighed quietly: "I remember that when the young master Buming Yiwen entered the door of Miaoyu Pavilion, he would be embarrassed by the servant. Most people would spend twenty taels of silver to meet the courtesan.
As a result, the young master saved a full fifteen taels of silver with his extraordinary wisdom, which really opened his eyes. Wenxiang has always admired the young master until now, and the figure of the young master appears in his mind every night..."
Li Yi automatically ignored Wen Xiang's heart. His eyes darkened and he sighed: "Yes, in order for me to see the wind, Zhao County Wei specially asked Chen Zhuo to give me a full twenty taels.
It was just twenty taels, it was really not a cent, not a cent. I was just thinking about public happiness at that time, and I didn’t realize why it was so coincidental…”
Wenxiang looked at Li Yi in a daze, always feeling that he seemed to be talking about something completely different from him.
Li Yi shook his head and pulled back his thoughts: "Miss Wenxiang, I do have something to do if I need the girl's help."
"Young Master, don't worry." Wen Xiang's face showed joy and leaned against Li Yi silently. "Young Master is so tired and sleepy, I think you need to have a good sleep. I happen to be proficient in this way and I am willing to relieve my worries..."
"Is Qiu Ling's house still empty now?" Li Yi said suddenly, causing Wenxiang's body to froze.
"Qiu Ling?" Wen Xiang couldn't remember who Qiu Ling was for a while.
"It's the maid of the courtesan Yulu, and the woman who was later hung."
Wenxiang thought for a while and suddenly said, "Oh, the young master is talking about Qiu Ling. After she died, the house was sealed by someone from the yamen, and no one else could enter."
"The house sealed by the people in the yamen..." Li Yi shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Has he calculated this? This is the smartest person in Zhaozhou, so he should be the one who should be."
"What are the young masters saying? Wen Xiang is so rude, I can't understand."
"I complain a few casually. Miss Wenxiang, I'm sorry that I can't stay for a long time. Let's go to Qiuling's house to take a look."
Li Yi said goodbye to Wenxiang and walked alone to the house where Qiuling hung that day.
When he took over the Yulu case before, Li Yi promised to help He Kuan collect the body and bury him beside Qiu Ling and Yulu.
In order to thank Li Yi, He Kuan said that he had prepared a book for Li Yi.
A book that can bring down many high-ranking officials.
At that time, He Kuan did not explain where to hide the account book, and Li Yi had no need for it, so he did not think about it carefully.
Now that I think about it, one day and night, Yun Zhaozhao killed all the food prepared by Gan Ci. Li Yi and Gan Ciheng were so hungry that they couldn't sleep, so they secretly came to Miaoyu Pavilion to steal chickens.
That night, Gan Ci found a lame man, He Kuan, and jumped from the upstairs and ran away.
At that time, Yulu and Qiuling were both dead. What did He Kuan do when he returned to Miaoyu Pavilion? There was no one he nostalgic for Miaoyu Pavilion...
Li Yi now understood that he wanted to hide the account book in Qiu Ling's house.
Li Yi tore off the seal posted on the front yamen in Qiuling's house and pushed open the door.
The house was left unattended and it was not airtight for a long time. When the two doors were removed, a sensation of corrosive air was coming.
Li Yi choked several times by the dust. Looking at the corners with spider webs, a gray feeling surged in his heart: the tea is colder than that of people leaving...
Li Yi fumbled the house and finally lay down under the bed and found a blood-stained book clipped on the back of the bed frame.
Li Yi carefully took out the booklet and gently opened it.
After reading four or five pages, Li Yi was frightened to put away the account book, with a cloud covering his face.
This account book not only records the details of several senior officials in the court who embezzled and accepted bribes and were colluded, but also records the evidence of killing good people in the military camp and embezzling military pay...
Li Yi also saw from it that Wang Zhuzhu killed the whole family and used all his family wealth to buy official positions from Zheng Qi. Zheng Qi used his background to sell official positions and titles.
This account book also solved a question that Li Yi has always had.
It turns out that the reason why Wang Zhubu was recruited as a son-in-law by a wealthy family was that his daughter and cousin snatched the forbidden fruit and were abandoned at all times. After getting pregnant, he had no choice to seal the people's mouth.
No wonder the king's chief clerk destroyed the rich family.
How could Wang Zhubu, a proud and arrogant person, be willing to endure such humiliation...
Li Yi properly collected the books and left Miaoyu Pavilion.
After this delay, it was only one and a half hours before the public trial at noon, and we still had to arrive at the yamen as soon as possible.
Li Yi left for a while, a man with disheveled face hit him, and left without saying a word. Li Yi couldn't help but frown.
Instead of returning to the yamen, he took a detour and entered a remote alley.
"My friends who are following me, don't need to hide anymore." Li Yi turned his head and said coldly.
As soon as this said, more than a dozen people came around: "Li Yi, you are very keen and know that your brothers are following you. But your brothers don't understand. If you don't go to the downtown area, how can you enter this remote alley?
This is not the way a smart person is. It seems that you, the smartest person, have nothing to do with a false reputation!
In the downtown area, you may still have a glimmer of hope; here, you will die without life!"
After saying that, these dozen people showed their bright long swords.
