"No Lin murmur said in a deep voice: "but it won't be long. As soon as it gets light tomorrow, they will find that the account books are missing."

Yu Heng frowned and said, "father, my son thinks it's not appropriate to scare the snake before he finds out. How about Let's make a copy and return it before dawn? "

Dongfangsu means the same thing, but the nine brochures in Lin Mo's hand are more than a foot thick. Even if they copy them together, it will take more than an hour. In addition, it will take at least two hours to return them. But now it's less than two hours before dawn.

Seeing Dongfang Suo's dilemma, mu Qianxue said with a smile: "I'll come."

Dongfang Su shook his head and said, "it's too late for you to copy alone. If you can't, you can only scare the snake."

Mu Qianxue said with a smile: "did the seventh master forget that I have the ability to never forget? If you read these pamphlets once, half an hour will be enough. "

Dongfang Su patted his forehead and suddenly said, "yes, how can I forget this?" Then he bowed his hand to Mu Qianxue and said with a smile, "thank you, madam."

"Well." Time is pressing, mu Qianxue simply answered and took the brochure to read. Yu Heng is beside him. Often he just read the beginning, and that page has already turned over. The speed of reading ten lines at a glance is really amazing.

Just as mu Qianxue said, she had finished reading all the brochures in half an hour. After closing the last page, she closed her eyes. Countless characters and numbers flashed in her mind. After a while, she opened her eyes and said to Lin Mo, who had been waiting beside her: "well, let's return the brochures before dawn."

"Yes." Lin Mo took the book strangely. He couldn't imagine that someone just read it once and remembered thousands of characters in it.

After Lin Mo left, mu Qianxue asked Yu Heng to take a pen and paper and write down the account book he had just read word by word. In a whole day, he finished writing two pieces of pine smoke ink.

Among them, dongfangsu asked her to rest more than once, but she was refused by mu Qianxue. Although she has the ability to never forget, she also has a time limit. After a long time, it's inevitable that she will make mistakes, especially in this kind of account books which are all numbers. So in order to prepare correctly, she wrote all the account books silently without even drinking water. As for dongfangsu, she always accompanied her silently, Grind ink and paper for her.

After finishing the last word, mu Qianxue's face was as pale as paper. She leaned on the back of her chair and gasped for breath. Her back was full of sweat. Although she was just writing books silently, she lost a lot of mental energy.

Dongfang Su holds her right hand trembling constantly because she is too tired and says pitifully, "it's hard for you."

Mu Qianxue shook her head and said weakly, "it's not in the way. The most important thing is to help the seventh master." Said, she urged a way: "seven Ye quick see."

"Well, take a break." After helping mu Qianxue to bed and lying down, Dongfang Su picked up an account book and looked at it carefully. It was a whole night.

The morning light is dim, shining on the bed through the semi-old window paper. Mu Qianxue, who is sleeping, frowns and opens her eyes slowly. The lamp on the table has used up the last bit of lamp oil, leaving only the burnt black wick. A tall figure stands in front of the window, motionless, like a statue.

Mu Qianxue sat up and asked, "seventh master?"

The figure moved and then turned around. It was Dongfang Su, "are you awake?"

Mu Qianxue took a look at the neat books on the table and said in a soft voice, "didn't you sleep all night?"

Dongfang Su nodded, sat down beside the bed, and said, "I know that in addition to the taxes stipulated by the imperial court, the salt administration of Huaihe River and Huaihe River also charged three Liang for each quotation. As for the salt merchants, in order to collect money, they increased the price of salt even more. In the past five years alone, the price of salt has increased nearly ten times, making every household's salt as expensive as gold."

Mu Qianxue was silent, which she knew when she wrote silently yesterday. The level of corruption in the salt administration of Huaihe and Huaihe was really heinous.

Dongfang Su sneered: "did the junior two say that a million salt merchants in Yangzhou were just a little rich before? Just the amount recorded in these books has exceeded ten million Liang. All of them are the cream of the people scraped off one layer after another!" Speaking of the back, he was furious and punched hard on the bed, "after I find out, I will never let them off." The breath in my chest surged and coughed.

Mu Qianxue quickly stroked his back and advised him: "seventh master, mind your body. We already know about it. It's not difficult next."

"There's another thing I think you've found out," he said

Mu Qianxue's eyes moved slightly, "seven ye said that the account book of Lianghuai salt administration?"

"Yes, that account book is very different from the one of the eight salt merchants. If you only read that one, you can't see that there is something wrong with Yangzhou's salt administration."

Mu Qianxue nodded and said, "yes, I guess it should be a fake account book to deal with the imperial inventory."

"Last night when you were asleep, I asked Lin Mo to go to Jiang Xu's mansion in person, but I still couldn't find the real account book.""That account book is of great importance. Jiang Xu will find a hidden place to put it away. He wants to find It's hard. "

"But the account books must be found. There must be more than one official involved in this case." Dongfang Su wiped his face and said, "I have sent someone to check him. He is lustful and has married an aunt of five or six rooms. He is not satisfied. He has recently taken a fancy to Huakui in Hongxiu Pavilion. He often goes there, so I wonder if I can start from there."

Mu Qianxue covered her lips with a smile and looked askance at dongfangsu. She said deliberately, "this case is interesting. It's actually found in the brothel. Isn't the seventh master drunk and not in the bar?"

Dongfang Su was said by her, "where do you want to go? I have you alone. I can't even look at other women."

Mu Qianxue said with a taut face: "it's better than singing. I don't know it's true."

"You." Dongfang trace in her palm gently patted, "no wonder love always bully to Heng, originally inherited from you." After a meal, he said: "if you are really not at ease, let Yuheng go."

Mu Qianxue said with a smile: "Yu Heng is only 14 years old. The seventh master is not afraid that if he goes to that place, will he be dazed?"

Dongfang Su picked an eyebrow and followed her words: "there's no way. Who told you not to let me go? If Yu Heng doesn't come back, the queen will have to be crazy. Then you can explain to the queen yourself. I won't help you carry this black pot."
