How can I bow my head and serve the powerful officials?

That night, Shen Yuan was working at his desk when suddenly a book fell from the sky and scared him.

Looking up, I saw that a tile on the beam was missing.

Shen Yuan did not chase after him.

The other party was able to push away tiles and throw things without making any noise, which showed that his Qinggong was better than his. And in this government office, the only one with better Qinggong than him was Xie Chengze's personal bodyguard, Wuji.

Although he didn't see the other person along the way, it doesn't mean that he is not by Xie Chengze's side.

Shen Yuan raised his hand to pick up the book, and after opening it, the corner of his mouth twitched.

This word is really ugly.

However, when he saw the content clearly, his face changed suddenly.

This is an account book, and on it is recorded the number of granaries and silver bureaus in the county governments of the affected counties.

The above content is completely different from the one Liang Wanda gave, and the content is so detailed that it is impossible to doubt its authenticity.

When investigating the Yizhou corruption case in his previous life, it was the first time that Shen Yuan faced the insatiable greed of these corrupt officials. He was so angry because he was tricked by them that he almost memorized every record in the account.

Therefore, it was quickly confirmed that these records were almost the same as in the previous life.

These beasts, blinded by greed, actually embezzled all the extra 100,000 taels of silver given by the court!

Shen Yuan was so angry that he slammed the account book on the desk. After he calmed down, he remembered another thing.

Xie Chengze, why did you send Wuji to give him this account book?

Would he be so kind?

Because he couldn't believe it, Shen Yuan even speculated that this might be the work of some hidden master among the people.

But why didn’t the other party appear in the previous life?

Could it really be Xie Chengze?

I can only try it tomorrow.

……

The next day, Shen Yuan waited until noon before Xie Chengze got up and went out.

He can really sleep.

Shen Yuan leaned against the wooden pillar outside the corridor, secretly looking at him with disdain. Seeing Wu Zhi beside Xie Chengze, Shen Yuan blinked his eyes, pretended to go out as well, and walked up to talk to him.

"Who is this? I don't think I've seen him before." Shen Yuan looked at Wuji, as if he was guessing his identity. "I heard that the Second Prince has two masters around him, one named Wuhen and the other named Wuji. Could this be Wuji?"

Xie Chengze nodded.

"I thought that His Royal Highness the Second Prince only brought one of the masters with him this time, but it turns out that the other one was also here. I have been checking the road conditions everywhere along the way, but I didn't find any trace of His Royal Highness's subordinate..." Shen Yuan's words were suggestive.

Xie Chengze glanced at him nonchalantly and said, "It seems that Lord Shen is still too weak. You need to strengthen your martial arts training in the future."

Shen Yuan:?

Shen Yuan figured out the word "菜" from the sentence, which probably meant that his martial arts level was not good enough, so he could not detect Wu Ji's existence.

Shen Yuan did not give up. He swept his eyes over Wu Zhi's body, trying to see something.

Being able to investigate the silver vaults and granaries in nearly half of the counties in Yizhou in such a short time is something that even the emperor's shadow guards may not be able to do. If it was done by Wu Ji, the fatigue after running under high intensity and pressure for a long time would inevitably show in his physical condition.

Noticing Shen Yuan's gaze, Wu Ji clasped his sword in both hands and glanced at him, saying in a cold tone, "Your Highness, my legs hurt so much from running, and no one cares about me."

The implication is: What are you looking at? I look so old because of you, right?

All the hard work along the way finally goes to you, kid!

Shen Yuan: ...

"Since your legs hurt, go back and rest." Xie Chengze was a good boss who was very considerate of his employees. He stepped onto the carriage and turned back to look at Shen Yuan, "Lord Shen is going out too? How about we go together?"

Shen Yuan also wanted to see what Xie Chengze was going to do, so he raised his hand and gestured, "Your Highness, please."

Wu Ji snorted softly, "I hope Lord Shen will take good care of our Highness and don't neglect him!"

Shen Yuan raised his eyes and saw Wu Ji's provocative expression. He curled his lips and smiled, "Of course, you don't have to worry about it."

After saying that, he got on the carriage.

As soon as I entered the carriage, I saw Xie Chengze slumped on the chair in a very ungraceful manner, with no manners for sitting or lying down, like a rotten fish.

The corner of his forehead twitched slightly, and Shen Yuan seemed to sneer, "The Second Prince's sitting posture is really unique."

"Do you want to try it too? It's super cool." Xie Chengze patted the seat next to him and recommended it.

"I am not so lucky." Shen Yuan sat aside. Although his sitting posture was not upright, his movements were smooth and elegant. Coupled with his extremely handsome face, he looked even more like a romantic gentleman.

Xie Chengze secretly rolled his eyes.

You can lie down if you want. If your waist hurts later, just don’t say anything.

The carriage drove out of the city and gradually entered the mountains. The road became increasingly bumpy, causing the entire carriage to sway. However, Shen Yuan was as steady as a rock, flipping through an account book in his hand and looking through it carefully.

Xie Chengze couldn't help but ask, "Sir Shen, don't you feel dizzy?"

Is your waist so good?

Shen Yuan didn't even raise his eyelids and said calmly, "I've been riding horses since I was a child. I've experienced more bumps than this. I'm used to it."

Xie Chengze envied anonymously.

After a while, Shen Yuan sighed in his heart when he saw Xie Chengze tossing and turning on the chair, rubbing his lower back from time to time, but being too stubborn to say a word.

He put down the account book and sat next to Xie Chengze.

"If your Highness the Second Prince does not mind, I will help you clear the way."

What? Xie Chengze was a little confused. Before he could answer, he heard Shen Yuan say, "I'm sorry."

The broad, thin, long hand covered Xie Chengze's waist the next moment, and the soft touch seemed to be able to be grasped in one hand. Although the summer temperature was already hot enough, Shen Yuan could still feel the scorching temperature under his hand, coming from the man's skin.

He pressed hard, and the person under him groaned.

A pair of red eyes glared at me angrily, and his voice was hoarse, "Be gentle!"

Shen Yuan's heart trembled slightly.

A pair of equally red eyes flashed through my mind, looking aggrieved and stubborn.

He lowered his eyes, ignoring the man's face which was still full of charm even in his annoyance, and softened his stiff waist bit by bit to clear the impurities in it.

It was very painful at first, and Xie Chengze groaned a few times, but after a while of pushing from behind, he gradually felt comfortable, and his waist became sensitive again, and it would itch when rubbed.

Xie Chengze buried his face in the pillow on his waist. His whole slender body was trembling slightly because he was trying to hold back his laughter. His lower back was moving restlessly because of the itch, making people want to press him down hard on the chair and not let him move.

Pushing the waist is also a strenuous job. Maybe it was because he hadn't touched water all the way, but Shen Yuan felt dry mouth and his mood became more and more irritable.

The carriage stopped at this time, and the coachman shouted, "Your Highness, Lord Shen, we have arrived."

Shen Yuan withdrew his hand, lowered his eyes to hide the confusion in his eyes, stood up and walked out of the carriage quickly, "Second Prince, I will get off first."

Xie Chengze raised his head from the pillow, his little face flushed and hot. He picked up the gold-thread fan beside him and fanned himself a few times. Suddenly he remembered something and his face changed abruptly.

He lifted the car curtain and roared at Shen Yuanhedong: "Mr. Shen! You have no heart! You have such great skills, but you just watched me suffer from back pain on the way here!"

The groom coughed lightly a few times and looked at the two of them secretly with an ambiguous look.

The veins on Shen Yuan's forehead twitched more and more frequently.

Can he just shut up!!!
