Help! The system forces me to support a man to become a royal concubine

The county magistrate was so frightened that he dared not move.

The file storage room is a key area, no outsiders are allowed to approach, and the county magistrate himself often checks to ensure that everything is safe. How come the file disappeared?

The county magistrate came to his senses and looked around in a panic.

as predicted.

The only thing missing was the volume containing records of the Li family. The rest were all intact and in their original places, with nothing unusual.

"Master Song!"

The Lingzhou county magistrate fell to his knees at Song Qian's feet with a thud.

"My Lord! Please help me!"

The county magistrate cried bitterly, his face full of fear.

"Is the file really missing? Did you put it somewhere else and forget about it, sir?"

"Absolutely not! I often check these files for the convenience of checking and handing over work. They were still there yesterday! And their location has never changed. Even if they are needed on weekdays, they will be taken out and returned on the same day..."

"If...if you can't find it, then...it's lost!"

Song Qian looked at the panicked look of the county magistrate and felt that he did not seem to be lying. Moreover, since he had revealed the whole matter, there was no reason for him to hide anything.

He felt that this might be too coincidental.

Song Qian was not a well-known person. Only some officials and wealthy people had seen his true face. He deliberately decided to go to the government office in a low profile, just to avoid attracting attention and alerting the enemy.

Is it true that someone has been secretly monitoring them and has been fully aware of their every move since the beginning of their involvement in this matter, or even earlier?

Then, while they are on their way, they will get ahead of them and destroy the relevant evidence before them, leaving them with no way to check.

Could it be the group of people that Yun Fu just saw?

Song Qian felt that this matter was of great importance and was no longer a simple murder case.

"Husband, husband."

Yun Fu pulled Song Qian, asking him to come closer and wanted to talk to him.

"What did you find?"

"Since the county magistrate said that these files were still there yesterday, it means that someone came here not long ago and stole the files."

"But look inside this house. The windows and roof are intact. There's no sign of a thief having been in there."

"Being able to accurately obtain what he wanted in a short period of time shows that this person is very familiar with this place."

Song Qian nodded. He had also observed these.

"If those people want to get the files before us, there must be no delay. They must be familiar with the structure of this government office and the patrol rotation."

"And look, the other files are still neatly arranged, as if no one has touched them. Only this one has been taken away. What does this mean?"

The county magistrate had been crying for a long time and stopped now. When he heard Yun Fu say this, he couldn't help but look up to see what she would say next.

Yun Fu looked at the county magistrate crying...his eyes were swollen, and she found it funny and almost laughed out loud.

"Mr. County Magistrate, I'm afraid there's a spy inside your government office."

"what?"

The county magistrate hurriedly got up from the ground and looked at Yun Fu in disbelief.

"How is that possible? My subordinates are all dedicated to their duties. They are all veterans and have hardly made any mistakes over the years."

"Besides, there haven't been any new people coming in recently. Even the last servant to come has been with me for five years. How could there be something wrong with them?"

The county magistrate neither understood nor believed it.

"But that's the truth. As the saying goes, if you remove all the impossibilities, the rest, no matter how much you don't believe it, is still the truth."

Yun Fu shrugged helplessly, indicating that if you don’t believe it, there’s nothing I can do.

Song Qian's attention had previously been on how the files were stolen, but there was absolutely no damaged area in the warehouse, only the cabinets where the files were stored.

Moreover, this was just a government office in a small county town, with simple furnishings and not even a place to hide a secret passage.

Then what Yun Fu said makes sense.

If the person who stole the files didn't come from outside, then he must have done it from inside.

Then there is only one explanation.

Someone in this government office has defected to other forces.

Since they are working for a relatively powerful force, it will not happen overnight for these people to surrender.

Those organizations are very tight, and the entry and exit of personnel are strictly controlled. If you want to get in, you need a long period of training, testing and consideration.

However, the county magistrate just said that there has been no turnover of personnel in his mansion in recent years.

Song Qianye followed her husband's lead and shrugged like Yun Fu.

"Mr. County Magistrate, the traitor in your mansion may have infiltrated long ago."

The county magistrate didn't believe Yun Fu's words. But now that Lord Song had said so, the county magistrate was somewhat shaken.

Even though he couldn't understand...

More importantly, he was unwilling to admit it, because once his superiors got to know about it, the consequence that would await him would not be as simple as losing his official position.

Although the county magistrate was not a high-ranking official, he was not a person without ideas. He also vaguely realized that this matter was of great importance and there must be something very complicated involved.

The county magistrate stood there blankly, unable to speak.

"Don't worry, we won't sit idly by and watch this matter."

Yun Fu walked forward and patted the stunned county magistrate on the shoulder to comfort him.

"That's right. This matter is no longer as simple as a murder case. The forces hidden behind it will definitely take other actions."

"Since they are only concerned about the world being in chaos, I will certainly not stand idly by."

Song Qian said solemnly to the county magistrate.

"Since they have already taken action, we will stay here for a while and meet them."

Yun Fu was not afraid. She had magic to protect her anyway, so she volunteered to follow Song Qian.

Seeing her so excited, Song Qian felt helpless.

When the county magistrate heard that he was saved, he burst into tears of gratitude and was about to kneel down to express his gratitude.

"You don't have to."

Song Qian stopped the county magistrate who was about to kneel down.

"I'm sorry to bother you for the time being. Please keep this matter confidential. Don't tell anyone about my involvement in this matter, and don't announce that an investigation is about to begin, lest the news leak out."

"As for this inner demon, don't scare him. Let's play the long game and catch the big fish."

"I understand! I will follow your orders!"

The Lingzhou County magistrate seemed to be following Song Qianma's orders and was almost willing to give up his own position.

"If there's nothing else, we'll leave first."

Song Qian took Yun Fu's arm and was about to leave.

"Wait a minute!"

The county magistrate stopped the two men.

"Since you have troubled me, Lord Song, I don't know how to repay you..."

Yun Fu thought that this uncle wanted to marry her...

Song Qian also waved his hand to indicate that this was not necessary...

"I will arrange food and lodging for you all, and ensure that you all eat well and live comfortably in my Lingzhou!"

While bowing, the county magistrate sincerely offered to take care of their daily life during this period.
