"Take them to the birthday banquet to have a look and see the world, but keep an eye on them and don't let them move around at will." Miss Dong said.

The yamen officer nodded repeatedly.

Lead Gu Xue and others through the door.

The further inside you go, the more commotion you hear.

Obviously, many people came to celebrate the birthday.

Gu Xue and others were led into a woodshed, and the door was locked from the outside.

Miss Dong followed them in person. When she saw them being locked into the woodshed, she smiled, twisted her waist and left.

Gu Xue and others entered the woodshed and sat down. There were stools in the room.

After a quarter of an hour, the banquet began, first with the sound of newspapers being sung loudly.

What I am thinking of is the birthday gifts brought by the guests.

Every time I read one, I heard a burst of applause or exclamations.

Gu Xia felt vaguely uneasy: "Sister, Your Majesty, how long are we going to stay here?"

Gu Xue patted her shoulder: "Don't be afraid, we will leave soon after everything is over."

Xiao Jingyi also consoled him: "We will leave as soon as we get the evidence from the dog officer."

Gu Xia also calmed down and no longer worried.

Gu Xue waited for the sound of the newspaper singing outside to stop, knowing that the gift list had been read out and the gifts had been displayed.

If you don't go out and empty it out at this time, when will you go?

She whistled.

Ye Ling jumped in from the window.

"You stay here to protect my sister."

Ye Ling lowered his voice and said, "Yes!"

Gu Xue left a message: "I'll go out for a while."

Xiao Jingyi also said he wanted to go out.

The two of them climbed out of the window one after another.

"Split up!" Gu Xue whispered.

Jamel Xiao nodded.

He wasn't worried about Gu Xue, except that she was very skilled.

They were also accompanied by secret guards.

Wait for Gu Xue to go from one direction.

Xiao Jingyi whispered something.

A secret guard jumped down from a nearby tree.

"Go to places like the study and search. Be sure to find evidence that the county magistrate is corrupt and has violated the law."

"Call two more people and look for all three of them."

The secret guard left in response.

He suddenly disappeared, then reappeared and left in another direction.

Suddenly, two other secret guards appeared and went in different directions.

At this time, Gu Xue was crouching and groping for the county magistrate's warehouse.

The warehouse is an important place, and there are many people outside.

Gu Xue was observing in the dark.

The gifts received at the birthday banquet are being carried into the warehouse one by one by the servants.

There are big boxes and small boxes.

Needless to say, it is full of treasures for bribing the county magistrate.

Wait for them to put everything in, lock the door and leave.

At this time, there were only two gatekeepers left outside the warehouse.

Gu Xue waited for a while and took out a cigarette.

The two guards at the door smelled the smoke and lay down against the door.

Gu Xue stepped forward, took out a piece of wire from his pocket, and quickly opened the lock.

He ducked into the warehouse.

The destination is a large open space.

There were rows of boxes on the ground.

There were shelves all around, all filled with things.

Gu Xue opened a box and found a bunch of silver.

Opening another box revealed golden gold.

Then there are jade, gems, jade, agate, and all kinds of precious jewelry.

There are also paintings, calligraphy, various ornaments, cloth, and porcelain vases.

Good guy, this adds up to hundreds of thousands of taels.

Can't let him go.

Now that she's here, how can she not get something?

Gu Xue waved her hand.

Four-fifths of the gold and silver treasures in the warehouse were put into her space.

Only one fifth remains.

It's better to keep some, and convict him of the rest.

No, even though your home will be confiscated, it will still be wasted.

Instead of having the money taken away, it would be better to give her an advantage.

Besides, she believed that this county magistrate must have done a lot of bad things.

Those bad things alone were enough to convict him.

The lack of this money will not affect anything.

She put the remaining fifth of the treasure into the space with peace of mind.

The warehouse at this time was empty.

Not a penny was left.

Gu Xue glanced around and realized.

There is a strange wall.

In front of that wall is a row of shelves.

Gu Xue moved the shelf away.

After groping the wall a few times, she pushed harder.

As a result, the wall moved and one side was pushed open. It turned out to be a small door.

There is a room inside the door.

When I entered the house, I saw that there were several shelves inside.

There are some letters and ledgers on it.

It is all about the time and amount of money that the county magistrate paid to others, as well as the specific reasons why he gave the money.

There is also specific information about others giving him money.

Gu Xue waved her hand, not taking away a single cloud.

Not even a piece of paper was left.

She restored the door to the small room.

The door immediately turned into a wall again.

She moved the outside shelves back into place.

He quickly left the warehouse.

Close the door and keep the lock locked.

She stood far away and lit a stick of incense.

The smell of incense reached the noses of the two gatekeepers.

One person woke up first and realized that he had just fallen asleep.

He immediately glanced at the big lock on the door.

Seeing that Dasuo was fine, I felt relieved.

He had diarrhea last night and didn't sleep much all night.

He thought he was too sleepy and fell asleep.

Fortunately, no one saw him sleeping, otherwise he would have been punished.

He immediately noticed the other gatekeeper.

Unexpectedly, he also fell asleep.

Because the relationship is usually pretty good.

He quickly shook the man awake.

The man smelled the incense that Gu Xue lit and was actually about to wake up.

At this time, he was shaken awake and startled.

Seeing that everyone was awake, Gu Xue blew out the incense.

"Brother Huzi, I'm sorry, I fell asleep. No one came just now. If you saw it, I would definitely have to get slapped."

"No one is coming. Get up quickly. There is a birthday party today. Cheer up and let others see you sleeping."

He suddenly felt something was wrong again.

"Why did you fall asleep so well?"

He fell asleep because he didn't sleep much last night and it was understandable that he had taken a nap just now.

But both of them fell asleep.

"Haha, Brother Hu, I won't hide it from you. Last night, I went to the Flower House and stayed in the building all night."

The man felt relieved after hearing this and said jokingly: "I think you have been struggling too late and your body is too weak."

Gu Xue came out of the warehouse and entered the grain warehouse.

Hundreds of bags of rice, flour, and corn were all put into the space.

Found the kitchen again.

Everyone in the kitchen is busy cooking, and some of the ingredients are placed here.

But most of the ingredients are in the kitchen warehouse next door.

This warehouse is dedicated to storing ingredients.

Gu Xue took a look and saw that they were all delicacies from mountains and seas.

Without hesitation, she put all the ingredients into the space.

Keeping it is also a waste.

When Gu Xue returned to the woodshed, she saw Xiao Jingyi already there.

She quickly took off the two bundles from her body.

Just before she entered the woodshed, she took out a piece of gray cloth from the space.

He wrapped the letter he got from the small room in the bag.

One piece of baggage is the correspondence ledger.

Another baggage is some snacks from the kitchen.

Xiao Jingyi saw the opened baggage and asked, "What is this?"

Gu Xue: "Some of Magistrate Dog's account books and letters."
