Although Shu Shuxiao didn't quite understand what Yang Dong meant, he still nodded seriously.

Don't worry about him, just listen to Mr. Yang, right? As for other things, he is just a small boss and can't make any decisions.

Seeing his obedient look, Yang Dong couldn't help but chuckle and nodded.

But in his heart, there was a bitter smile.

This West Factory seems to be powerful, but in fact all these powers come from His Majesty.

In other words, it was only because His Majesty gave up his power that Xichang could have the overwhelming power it has today.

And a person like Yourong, although he is an emperor, is still a little emotional. If she knew something, she might not look good on herself.

Therefore, if Xichang wants to continue to maintain its current power, it can only satisfy His Majesty.

Yang Dong coughed lightly and retracted his divergent thoughts.

"Ahem, please don't panic. I invited you here late at night because I have an extremely important thing to ask."

"I also ask for your cooperation. If the inquiry is completed as soon as possible, you can go back to work as soon as possible."

Hearing these words, the eyes of the eunuchs and maids of the Qing Palace suddenly lit up.

What does this mean? Co-author called them over, not because they made any mistakes, but just to ask a simple question?

Great, if that's all, they can let go of their hanging hearts.

"Mr. Yang, if you have anything to do, just ask me."

"We can guarantee that we will treat Yang Gongzhi with all our words and words."

"very good."

Yang Dong nodded slightly, and without talking too much nonsense, he got straight to the point:

"Let me ask you, do you know Yu'er?"

Hearing the name Tao'er, the faces of the eunuchs and maids present showed a trace of uneasiness.

One of the great eunuchs took the courage to ask:

"What Mr. Yang said was the Tao'er who assassinated His Majesty? Didn't she commit suicide out of fear of crime?"

Yang Dong nodded slightly and glanced at everyone present with his cold eyes.

"Yes, Tao'er is dead. And according to our investigation at the West Factory, there has been some interaction between Tao'er and you."

"I won't say any more nonsense. I just want to ask you a question. Did Tao'er have any unusual behavior before he died?"

"If anyone can provide clues, I will reward you greatly!"

Yang Dong said, and slapped a five hundred tael silver note on the wooden table in the dungeon.

Seeing the five hundred taels of silver notes, the eunuchs and maids present gathered their eyes in unison.

As the saying goes, people die for wealth and birds die for food. Even the people in these palaces are not exempt from the vulgarity.

However, the five hundred taels of silver were not easy to get, because they couldn't figure out whether there were any accomplices of Tao'er among the people around them.

If so, wouldn't he be in danger?

Except for those who have just entered the palace, there are few real fools among the eunuchs and maids in the palace. Because the bones of a real fool have already rotted in the dry well of the cold palace.

They looked at each other, and although there was greed in their eyes, no one spoke first.

Seeing this, Shu Shumuse couldn't help but frowned.

I finally ran an errand for Mr. Yang, but these damn bastards didn't cooperate. Isn't this not giving me Shu Mouse face?

Shu Shushu raised his eyebrows and assumed a fierce posture.

And this gesture instantly shocked the eunuchs and maids of Shangqing Palace.

The difference is that this time Yang Dong didn't criticize anything.

His face was expressionless, his eyes swept over the palace maids and eunuchs present, and finally he picked up a stack of toilet paper on the wooden table.

These pieces of papyrus were originally used to record those criminals who could not bear the torture and spoke the truth.

But now, Yang Dong wants to use it differently.

"Everyone, I know you still have concerns in your hearts, and I will not force this matter."

"Everyone, please look at the papyrus in my hand. I will distribute these papyri to each of you one by one in a moment."

"If anyone has any clues to provide, just tear off a corner of the papyrus. From now on, after you return, I will send someone to contact you secretly."

"I will guarantee this with the West Factory Director to ensure that this matter will not be discovered by others."

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the eunuchs and maids of the Qing Palace on the scene suddenly lit up. They were originally afraid of revenge, but the method Yang Dong came up with basically solved their worries.

In this case, there is no need for them to hide it any more. After all, that was 500 taels of silver. If they could really get this money, even if they escaped from the palace overnight, they wouldn't have to worry about food and drink for the rest of their lives.

Thinking of this, many people's faces showed a look of eagerness to try. But they are well hidden and difficult to detect by people around them.

When Yang Dong saw this scene, the corners of his mouth raised slightly. He knew he would have new clues soon.



Half an hour later, Yang Dong looked at the tissue paper that he had taken back, with a look that was indeed true in his eyes.

"Mice, for those who are willing to provide clues, you can choose a few of your confidants to secretly question these people. If the clues they provide are really helpful to us, we will give you fifty to five hundred taels of silver depending on the situation."

"This time, don't make any mistakes, otherwise..."

"Don't worry, Mr. Yang! If anything goes wrong again, I, Shu Xiaoxiao, will come and see you!"

Shu Mouse patted his chest and made a promise. Yang Dong nodded slightly, said thank you for your hard work, and turned back to the small building.

This night seems destined to be sleepless!

Yang Dong looked at Shu Shushu's retreating back and yawned unconsciously.

But the next second, his eyes suddenly became sharp.

Sure enough, there is an accomplice!

He murmured to himself in a low voice, and while changing his pace, he followed closely towards the man in black in the distance.

At this moment, on the west side of the Xichang small building, a figure was leaning against the wall and sneaking softly.

If it weren't for Yang Dong, who was now a great martial artist, he wouldn't have been able to discover the existence of this man in black.

Even what he discovered this time, there was a part of luck involved.

After all, who would have thought that the moon would peek out from the clouds at exactly this moment?

On the other side, the black man seemed to have discovered that someone was following him.

I saw that the pace under his feet couldn't help but become much faster. The whole person is like an elf in the night, sometimes flying over the walls, sometimes hiding under the corners.

Even Yang Dong today is still a little difficult to follow.

Wait a minute, the direction he is escaping from... seems to be the northwest corner of the palace. That's the location of Leng Palace, and Hou Jin's little barbarian girl is also there.

Something bad is happening!

Some people died, but not completely...
