Chapter 29 Exceptions
King Han gave a stern resignation, but the aunt just shook her head and said, "Your Excellency, you are worrying too much. The women really don't know what the books of the people are. There are not many literate people in our village. How can I write a book..."

Yun Mohan and Han Wang visited Li Village not long ago, and the villagers all knew that they were officials from the capital, so they always answered their questions.

It's just that the answers they gave are really troublesome.

No matter how the king of Han assured them, they all bit him to death and said that they didn’t know the book of Wanmin, and even occasionally praised the local officials for being good to the people...

The road of revealing his identity to give the villagers confidence seems to be going nowhere, so Han Wang could only change the subject unwillingly, and asked the reporter: "Is Li Lu...does he have any conflicts with everyone?"

"There is no conflict, but he is very withdrawn and gloomy, and almost no one communicates with him." It was Mrs. Zhou's son who answered.

He spoke very fast, with a faint sense of impatience, obviously looking like he had a bad relationship with Li Lu.

"So does he usually live by himself?" Yun Mohan continued to ask, "I heard that his legs and feet are not very good. If he lives alone... what is his source of income?"

"Of course it's government subsidies." The aunt's son said, and spat again, "My lord, I didn't say that, this Li Lu is really unkind.

"His life is able to survive, obviously relying on the subsidies given by the government, but because he thinks the subsidies are too low, he forged a copy of that book and went to the capital to sue. This... This is really ungrateful!"

ungrateful?Still use the word well?
Yun Mohan and Cen Yuwei looked at each other subconsciously.They all saw a little surprise in each other's eyes.

Knowing that the other party roughly thought of the same point as herself, Cen Yuwei gave Yun Mohan a look, signaling him to continue asking.

And myself, in the name of ventilation, went to the backyard.

The warm sunshine in spring falls on the ground, casting a neat row of shadows on the farm tools placed against the wall in the backyard.

Cen Yuwei strolled in the backyard, carefully observing every plant and tree in the backyard.

Although Chu Qingzhu's run will generally bring out some ideas, but on his own side, he should also check as much as possible.

In the end, it would be even better if they could confirm each other.

Thinking of proof, Cen Yuwei couldn't help sighing again.It's a pity that the storybook is mainly about emotional narration, and all the details of the investigation are briefly mentioned.

Even because Chu Qingzhu was not a member of the imperial court, he did not write down the final evidence in detail.

Otherwise, she would just have to look for evidence directly, where is the need to fiddle with these twists and turns?

The slander is the slander, Cen Yuwei was still unequivocal when she started to do things.

After some observations, she quickly discovered that something was wrong—the soil sticking to some of the farm tools had dried into lumps, and it looked like they hadn't been used for several days!
This can be interesting.

Most of the villagers in Li Village are farmers, and they make a living by farming. Now it is spring plowing season, so how can they not use their farm tools for a few days?

What made them neglect this matter?
When she pursed her lips and turned around, Cen Yuwei's gaze was attracted by the bedding that the aunt and daughter-in-law were drying in the yard.The bedding is soft and fluffy, and the fabric is white... You can tell it's new at a glance!

She approached and tried to touch it, and the touch of her fingertips also confirmed her previous judgment.

Is it new...

Cen Yuwei fell into deep thought again.

But before she could figure out why, a female voice sounded behind her: "Why did your lord come to the backyard?"
