"Unknowingly, so much time has passed. Sister Yunyao, did you find anything?" Shangguan Jiu thumped his shoulders that were about to become stiff, and walked in the direction of Ji Yunyao and Gu Panli.

"I don't have a clue yet." Ji Yunyao looked up at the visitor, then lowered her head again. At this moment, she couldn't care about those little etiquettes.

"Prince Chun, really, why did you hand over this pile of things to you? It's so messy." Shangguan Jiu looked at the pile of damaged ledgers in front of Ji Yunyao, frowned, and muttered.

"Miss Jiu, this is what the lord specifically explained, and I will save you the best things to take care of." Gu Panli added fuel and jokes to the side, and now, Shangguan Jiu couldn't say anything more.After all, compared to the ones I looked at just now, this pile is really hard to start with.If Shangguan Ruochun asked herself to check these, then she would rather go back to her room and sleep.

"I'm so thirsty, come here." Before he could say a few words, Shangguan Jiu felt a dryness in his throat. He had been busy just now and didn't notice it, but now he felt uncomfortable all over his body.

As soon as she opened her mouth to shout, the maid outside the door brought in hot tea, as well as towels for washing her hands. While pushing the door, Ji Yunyao even saw a small stove by the door.Without making a sound, he took the tea with a suitable temperature and swallowed it. It tasted like being in the palace.

"Go get some more snacks." Shangguan Jiu drank tea, moistened his throat, and felt hungry again.

"You maidservants are clever." After speaking for a while, snacks and fruits were delivered outside the door. It could be said that everything was available, and even Shangguan Jiu couldn't help admiring it.

"These are all ordered by the prince." The servant girl didn't dare to take the credit, and answered honestly.

"Oh? Lord Chun is so considerate? It's rare." Shangguan Jiu said he didn't believe it, and his hands were not empty. He was busy grabbing a piece of cake and putting it in his mouth. She was really hungry.

Ji Yunyao raised her eyebrows secretly, she had guessed this when drinking tea just now, as expected, it was really Shangguan Ruochun's arrangement.It seems that she still takes them seriously, talking about hard work, but she still cares about the details in private.However, how much of this concern is specially for her?Ji Yunyao wasn't sure, and hoped to be more for her, but also afraid that it was because of her.

This busy work lasted for three days in a row, during these three days, Shangguan Ruochun never came to visit, nor sent anyone to inquire.It's like sending them to the frontier, letting them do whatever they want, without asking any questions.Gu Panli watched quietly from the side, Ji Yunyao was a little lost, but she couldn't tell where this loss came from, only Shangguan Jiu, who has been moaning from the initial high interest to now, has not stopped Looking at the work in the house, they are almost finished checking so many ledgers.

"Princess, can you see anything unusual?" Gu Panli had finished reading the ledgers she was in charge of, and wanted to ask how Ji Yunyao was doing, but she saw that she was staring at a few fragments repeatedly.

"I don't know yet, but I always feel that these pages are a bit strange, and I can't tell what's wrong for a while." Ji Yunyao handed over the things in her hand. These pages were not just seen today, but yesterday. I saw it once, and thought it was strange, so I put it aside and read it again today.

"What do you think is strange?" Gu Panli glanced at Shangguan Jiu who was not far away, and seeing that the princess was concentrating, she lowered her voice and asked Ji Yunyao.

"The content, what was written, is a little strange." After hearing Ji Yunyao's explanation, Gu Panli lowered her head to read it carefully, and felt something different this time.

"The other ledgers are all about the name and quantity of the grain, as well as the date of storage and distribution, but these few pages are written on the grain, but only the date of storage." These pages are connected together, probably not It was thoroughly cooked, but there were already distribution records in later dates, so why did this batch of food only get in and out?

"What do you mean?" Gu Panli only needed such a reminder, and she guessed it a little bit, but she didn't dare to say it easily.

"I guess so, but I don't know if it's right or not." Ji Yunyao didn't have the slightest sense of relief on her face, even though she finally found something after three days of hard work, it couldn't make them happy.

After all, this was only found from a pile of ashes. Whether it was hinted by God that these evidences were preserved on purpose, or because the others were damaged and could not be compared, it caused the illusion in front of us.For a while, the two smart women fell silent.

"Finally it's all over." Shangguan Jiu was very happy, and finally read through this pile of ledgers. Although there were a few mistakes in the records, they were also typos. After checking, there were no big mistakes.

"I didn't expect this place to be so poor. I thought that everyone in the world was rich." After reading those books, Shangguan Jiu seemed to be able to imagine what kind of life the people here lived when a catastrophe came.

"When I go back, I will ask Father to send more food." Shangguan Jiu was still kind-hearted, seeing that ordinary people were hungry, so he thought about saying a few more good words when he went back, so that Father could take care of Jiangyin in the future.

"Sister Yunyao, have you finished reading? Do you want me to help?" Shangguan Jiu finished the work at hand, in a very good mood, and walked towards them with a light gait.

Ji Yunyao hurriedly put those pages down carefully, without deliberately covering them up, for fear that this would attract Shangguan Jiu's attention instead.Gu Panli pretended to be nonchalant and clapped her hands tacitly, indicating that she had also completed the task.

"Great, we're all done, and we're going to have a good meal tonight." Shangguan Jiu still dislikes the pile of dirty waste paper, seeing that Ji Yunyao and Gu Panli both said that they finished reading it, naturally they wouldn't Go out of your way to get close to those things.

Seeing that Shangguan Jiu stopped and didn't intend to approach, the other two secretly breathed a sigh of relief.Taking advantage of the moment when Shangguan Jiu went back to the room to change clothes, Ji Yunyao wrapped the few pages of paper in a handkerchief and put them away, hoping to tell her about the situation when she saw Shangguan Ruochun.

For some reason, there was a faint expectation in her heart, looking forward to seeing Shangguan Ruochun, when she took these out, Shangguan Ruochun would have approval, gratitude, and maybe something else.Ji Yunyao didn't know exactly what she was looking forward to, but she just felt that the hard work of the past few days was not in vain, and she finally helped something.

Ever since Gu Panli saw those pages, she was also thinking about it, but seeing Ji Yunyao put them away, naturally she couldn't open her mouth to hate them.What's more, it would be wrong for her to keep these things.But after listening to Ji Yunyao's analysis just now, she found that Ji Yunyao is not as she had guessed before, she has no concept of politics and the current situation, on the contrary, she has her own opinions in her heart.

The three women were busy for three days, and Shangguan Ruochun was not idle either. After she explained the matters that day, before she left, she specially ordered her servants to take care of the people in the room.Fearing that they would be freezing, they ordered people to place more braziers by the door to keep out the cold, but felt that the air inside was not smooth, and there was a lot of dust in the ledger, so there was no plan to move the braziers in.Hot tea and snacks must be prepared at all times, neither too cold nor too hot, so the kitchen is kept warm at all times, and the servant girl brings them over from time to time and waits.I would rather wait outside silently than disturb the people in the room.

In the front hall, Luo Zishan had already been waiting there. Seeing that Shangguan Ruochun and Ji Yunyao hadn't been together for too long, he forced himself to suppress his unhappiness and waited for Shangguan Ruochun's orders.

"Is there any news from Mr. Ji?" Neither Ye Ruotao nor Wu Yu was summoned this day, and Shangguan Ruochun had already taken the opportunity to replace his guards in this mansion after the assassin, so he spoke more than before. Relaxed.

"My lord, there is no news yet. However, the spies reported that before Mr. Ji disappeared, many Yue people appeared." Luo Zishan spared no effort to find out about Ji Fenghuai, not only because it was ordered by the emperor, but also because he was Ji Yunyao's grandfather.
