Shao Xi really never thought about going back to the treasury to record the entry and exit records, but Lao Wu did. So when Chen Mohuai raised the matter, Shao Xi was slightly surprised, and Lao Wu immediately took out the record book from his arms and handed it over. After passing it, it looks very natural, otherwise everyone would say that ginger is still hotter than old.
It is now obvious that Chen Mohuai and others know that the stolen account books are in the hands of Ye Ziyuan. Now that Shao Xi wants to take Ye Ziyuan away, the account books will most likely fall into Shao Xi's hands. At present, the only thing that can be clearly supported by the account book is this treasury cash entry and exit record, so either you can't take the account book with you, or you can't take the record with you. Anyway, don't even think about taking both of them. As a result, complete evidence has never been formed. This was Cai Cheng and Chen Mohuai's idea. It was a wishful thinking.
Although the power of "Jingcheng Si" makes people very fearful, it does not mean that they can kill people randomly without any reason. The reason why they can gain such trust from the Holy One is because they can share the Holy One's worries rather than add trouble to the Holy One. So to a certain extent, Chen Mohuai and others' method is still effective.
Since I have to pay it back, of course I have to behave naturally. At this point, compared with Lao Wu, Shao Xi seems too young.
Chen Mohuai took the record and turned around and handed it to Master Liu. Master Liu pretended to flip through a few pages casually, and then put it into his arms after confirming that it was correct.
"It's really a great service to you two adults in getting rid of the harm in Qingshan City this time. From top to bottom in our Qingshan County, the officials and the people are very grateful to these two adults. Since the two adults plan to leave Qingshan City tomorrow, today In the evening, the official will prepare a banquet in the mansion to bid farewell to the two adults, and I hope that the two adults will come to honor me no matter what."
Although Shao Xi felt a little uncomfortable, he still wanted to be polite on the surface.
"We didn't help much this time. Instead, we made you all spend a lot of time on me and me. It really caused trouble for you. Let's just skip the banquet tonight!"
"Hey! Mr. Shao, you are so polite. We sent people to invite the two adults who worked so hard to come from Wanxian County. Now that the two adults are leaving, how can we lose our courtesy and ask the two adults not to refuse? I have rewarded the official for his face."
Old Wu poked Shao Xi lightly under the table. Although Shao Xi didn't seem to have any reaction, he changed his tune.
"Since Mr. Chen has said this, we can't refuse anymore, which will cause trouble for everyone. I am scheduled to come to the banquet tonight, and all the adults here are invited to come with me."
"No trouble, no trouble. It's an honor for us to be honored by the two adults."
It was too polite to be polite. The person was about to get it anyway, and Shao Xi would probably vomit if he continued talking, so he stood up and left, saying that he was going back to the post house to pack his bags and come to the banquet at night.
Shao Xi repeatedly asked Ye Ziyuan to be sent back to prison for better care, and then left the county capital.
Not far after leaving the county governor's house, Shao Xi asked Lao Wu, "Now that the record has been taken back by them, I originally planned to sneak into the house tonight to steal his private accounts, otherwise we will have nothing to do if we leave early tomorrow morning. Chance, why do you still hint that I agree to go to tonight’s banquet?”
"Instead of sneaking into the house secretly, why not go in openly and openly? If his private account is stolen during the banquet, it has nothing to do with you and me. Wouldn't it be better not to fall under suspicion?"
"Of course I understand this, but since we have gone to a banquet, and there are no social activities at the banquet, how can you and I steal the account books? Wouldn't it be a pity if we missed the opportunity?"
Old Wu glanced at Shao Xi jokingly and said: "It's better to socialize more! Drink more wine if you socialize more. You must remember tonight, even if others don't come to toast you, you still have to toast others. Anyway, drink The more, the better.”
Needless to say, Shao Xi was smart. After hearing what Old Wu said, he immediately understood the meaning and nodded meaningfully.
"Then tonight you must remember to put your wine bottle next to me, and I will drip the wine forced out of my body into your wine bottle to avoid leakage."
When Lao Wu heard this, he was very unhappy, "We don't play like this. I have to drink the stuff that was forced out of your body. Do you think it's appropriate for it to be so disgusting?"
"What's inappropriate? The idea was yours anyway. If you don't drink, who will?"
After Shao Xi finished speaking, he walked away with a smile. Old Wu stood behind and his beard flew up in anger.
"This brat, I helped him with advice, but he actually did this to me."
Returning to the post house, the two of them hurriedly tidied up, and specifically asked the servants to add fine materials to the horses. After preparing to steal the account books at night, they went to the prison at dawn to take Ye Ziyuan out of the prison and took advantage of the city gate. Leave Qingshan City as soon as possible.
After everything was prepared, Lao Wu went back to his room and went to sleep. After struggling with his age for a few days, he probably couldn't bear it anymore.
Shao Xi was still worried about Ye Ziyuan, so he went to the prison again.
Ye Ziyuan was still lying on the wooden bed, but now there were bedding on the bed. Ye Ziyuan also put on clean clothes. A charcoal brazier was placed not far from the bed. It seemed that the inspection table was still there. Do things properly.
"How do you feel now? Does your leg still hurt? You had a hard time this morning, so you must be feeling sad, right?"
Ye Ziyuan smiled and shook his head and said: "I heard that you have taken me out of the hands of the county guard. I can leave with you tomorrow. Even if my legs hurt now, I am happy in my heart."
"Something is not going well, and I wanted to tell you."
"Just tell me if you have anything to do!"
So, Shao Xi told Ye Ziyuan what happened at the Sheriff's Mansion in the morning.
Ye Ziyuan sighed softly: "That dog official is indeed a cunning person. He expected that I might hand over the account book to you. He was afraid that the two would form irrefutable evidence, so he took the book back. What are your plans now?"
"I have told them that I will take you out of Qingshan City early tomorrow morning. Chen Mohuai is hosting a banquet tonight for me and Old Wu. We plan to steal their private account tonight."
Ye Ziyuan said gratefully: "Young Master is willing to take such a big risk for my sake. Zi Yuan is very touched. But Young Master must be more careful. Don't do anything, don't force it. Even if this matter doesn't work, Zi Yuan will still be there." Thank you, sir."
Shao Xi smiled and said: "I promised you that I would take you away after fulfilling your wish. Now that your legs are inconvenient, I will naturally do your things. Don't talk about being grateful or unappreciative again." If you don’t, there will be times in the future when you will bother me.”
Ye Ziyuan's pretty face turned red, "How could it be? Ziyuan just wants to stay by the young master's side for the rest of her life and never leave again."
"Okay, I'm relieved to see you're okay. I'll hire a carriage from the car dealership when I get back soon. I'll pick you up early tomorrow morning. You have a good rest. The bumpy journey in the coming days will be enough for you."
Just when Shao Xi stood up and was about to go back, Ye Ziyuan reached out and took Shao Xi's hand. This kind of skin-to-skin contact between a woman and a man would not normally happen in this world unless they were close relatives, so Shao Xi was stunned for a moment.
Those cold and slender jade hands were as soft as boneless. Shao Xi held them in his hands and couldn't bear to let go. This was the first time Shao Xi came to this world and his heartbeat accelerated when he was held by a woman.
"Sir, if things don't work out tonight, you must not force yourself. Although I said before that I must fulfill this wish before leaving with you, I don't want to put you in danger for this wish, so if this cannot be done, I will Even if you are willing to give up, I will still walk with you. Now I just want the young master to be safe and sound. I just want to protect the young master."
"It is your wish and my wish to seek justice for the people of Qingshan County. Now it is not just for you, but for the people of the entire Qingshan County. If what happens tonight is for the best, if it doesn't work out for me in the future, We will definitely find an opportunity to complete this matter and punish these corrupt officials."
"In that case, I will wait here for the good news of the young master, and wait for you to pick me up tomorrow morning."
"Well, wait for me!"
Shao Xi squeezed Ye Ziyuan's hand gently, put it down reluctantly, stood up and left the prison.
Ye Ziyuan looked at Shao Xi's leaving figure and muttered in a low voice, "I only hope that the young master will go well and be safe. If the young master is fine, Ziyuan is willing to use his own life in exchange."
Her heart was happy and satisfied at the moment, and this happiness made her feel unreal at a certain moment. She has never felt this way since her father passed away. Now Shao Xi has allowed her to find this feeling again. She hopes she can keep it this time and not lose it again. But there was a faint worry in my heart, that kind of unspeakable panic.
Ye Ziyuan laughed to herself, maybe this happiness came too quickly, maybe she thought too much, tomorrow is a new beginning.
After Shao Xi left the prison, he went straight to the carriage house and ordered the largest, most spacious and most comfortable soft carriage in the carriage, and asked them to wait in front of the prison gate before dawn tomorrow.
After paying the deposit and leaving the car dealership, Shao Xi hurried back to the post house. It was already dark. Shao Xi came to Lao Wu's room, and the two discussed the itinerary together, and decided to rush directly outside the prison to wait for dawn after leaving the county governor's house. After dawn, he left Qingshan City immediately after receiving Ye Ziyuan.
As soon as the two people agreed on the matter, the servants of the county governor's mansion came to the post house and invited the two to a banquet at the county governor's mansion.
The two refused to sit in the sedan, but packed up their belongings and followed the servants to the county governor's house. From a distance, they saw Chen Mohuai and other officials waiting in front of the door.
Chen Mohuai stepped forward and asked in confusion: "Why did the two adults not sit in a sedan chair today, but instead rode horses? It's better to ride in a sedan chair when going back after drinking. It's a bit dangerous to ride a horse."
Shao Xixin said, you are so lenient in your control. You even control drunk driving. So what if I just like riding horses? I'm so happy that I'm still going retrograde!
I was thinking this in my heart, but I was saying, "Sitting in a sedan chair is too depressing and I'm not used to it, especially after drinking. Riding on a horse and blowing in the air is just enough to sober up. Mr. Chen, do you doubt my drinking capacity? I'll compete with you tonight." how?"
"Since Mr. Shao is so interested, I feel free to accompany you, Mr. Shao, please come in."
"Master Chen, please."
