Night Watchman: Linked to the Legend of Sword and Fairy game, strongly promoting Huaiqing.

He wouldn't take out any more gold, silver, or other valuables.

How could something swallowed be released?

"Let me see!" Nangong Qianrou quickly took it and looked through it.

After reading the contents of the ledger, she became even angrier: "Hmph!"

"So it was another hypocritical and corrupt official."

"Corruption, abuse of power, and harm to others."

She had just thought Sun Mingzhong was an honest official.

In reality, he was also a corrupt official who embezzled public funds, abused his power, and harmed others.

then.

She then examined the contents of the letter.

Upon seeing this, she was immediately horrified.

"Zhou Xianping and Sun Mingzhong actually colluded with the rebels!"

"They also regularly provided financial assistance to the rebels in Yunzhou. No wonder all the money in the secret room disappeared; it was all used to support the rebels."

The contents of the letters were all information exchanged between Zhou Xianping and Sun Mingzhong.

These are all handwritten letters from the two of them, so they are definitely not fake.

"And the 150,000 taels of tax silver have already been transported out of the capital."

"No wonder no trace could be found!"

Although the tax silver case has been solved, the tax silver has not been recovered.

Only after seeing the letter did I learn that it had already been transported out of the capital.

It's estimated that they've already reached Yunzhou and been taken over by the rebels.

She immediately looked at Li Xuan and said, "Li Xuan, you have done another great service!"

"Not only did they expose Sun Mingzhong's disguise, but they also discovered evidence of his collusion with the rebels and Zhou Xianping, as well as traces of tax silver."

"Recruiting you was the best decision I ever made."

A satisfied expression appeared on her pretty face.

Li Xuan said, "It was all just luck."

"I had no idea that an ordinary bottle could be the key to a secret room."

“Luck is also a kind of strength,” Nangong Qianrou said with a smile.

She then waved her hand and said, "This matter is of great importance. I need to see the leader immediately to report it."

"Let's go back to the night watchman's headquarters!"

The two quickly left the secret room and returned to the headquarters of Haoqi Tower.

····················

44. Humble Celebration: Greetings, senior! Great Teleportation Talisman, the forgotten wedding.

Two quarters of an hour later.

The two returned to headquarters.

They happened to run into Zhu Yang, who was walking out.

Upon seeing Nangong Qianrou and Li Xuan, Zhu Yang sneered, "Only back now? Your reconnaissance and detection capabilities are truly appalling."

It had been almost half an hour since he returned.

Nangong Qianrou and Li Xuan returned to headquarters and began reviewing files to investigate the individuals.

Efficiency and capability are too slow.

He had already identified some suspects and clues, and soon made progress.

"Nangong Qianrou, you and your gigolo, just wait and see, all your efforts will be in vain!"

After saying that, he arrogantly strode away.

Li Xuan was taken aback, then looked at Nangong Qianrou and smiled, "Am I your gigolo?"

Nangong Qianrou paused for a moment, glared at Li Xuan and said irritably, "Stop fooling around, business is more important."

After saying that, she quickly entered the Haoqi Tower.

Li Xuan followed.

Once inside, Nangong Qianrou said, "I'm going to the top floor to find the leader. You go back to your workstation first."

"Don't worry, I will report your credit truthfully."

Li Xuan said nonchalantly, "It's fine if you don't report it; I've already made a killing anyway!"

He had already obtained items worth hundreds of thousands of taels from Sun Mingzhong's secret chamber and no longer cared about any merit.

"A huge profit?" Nangong Qianrou frowned.

Without giving it much thought, he said, "Anyway, I won't treat you unfairly."

After saying that, she quickly headed to the top floor where Wei Yuan was.

Li Xuan then turned around and went back to his office.

Back in his private office, Li Xuan took out a small jade mirror to check the information.

There happened to be some discussion in the group chat.

"Number Six: These days have truly been a turbulent time for Beijing."

"Number Six: First, 150,000 taels of tax silver went missing, then Zhou Xianping's family was attacked and killed; last night, Sun Mingzhong's entire family was wiped out."

After Hengyuan finished speaking, someone responded from below.

"Number Two: So many major events have happened in just these few days?"

"Number Two: The capital is truly in turmoil, with terrifying infighting; in just a few days, two high-ranking officials of the third rank have died."

"Number Two: This level of security is almost inferior to that of Yunzhou."

"From far away in Yunzhou," Li Miaozhen, the editor, sent.

The capital city is the place with the most powerful people and the strongest strength in the Great Feng Dynasty.

There were even powerful institutions such as the Imperial Observatory and the Night Watchmen.

However, within a few days, two high-ranking officials of the third rank were killed in succession.

Especially Sun Mingzhong, who is located in the inner city.

Moreover, the surrounding mansions belonged to high-ranking officials and nobles.

As a result, the entire family was wiped out, and no one knew about it.

This made Li Miaozhen doubt the safety of the capital.

"Number One: Indeed, many major events have occurred in the capital these past few days."

"Number One: Moreover, the killer is mysterious and unpredictable, and cannot be identified."

Huaiqing sent a message from a corner of the mansion.

As the eldest princess, she was naturally very happy and took it very seriously when such a major event occurred in the capital.

They kept a close eye on things and kept abreast of the latest developments.

However, this was learned through the night watchman's records from the Imperial Observatory.

There was no trace of the murderer.

Even the astronomical methods of the Imperial Observatory could not deduce it.

There are only two possibilities for this situation to occur.

One possibility is that the killer is so powerful that it's impossible to deduce their identity.

Another possibility is that the murderer was carrying something that obscured the truth.

Only in this way can the Imperial Observatory be unable to detect any traces of them.

"Number One: Also, I've looked into it and found that both Zhou Xianping and Sun Mingzhong seem to have been killed by sword masters."

"Number One: Although the two murderers used different sword styles."

Number One: But I always feel that it can't be such a coincidence.

"Number One: I suspect that the murderer is very likely the same person."

Huaiqing took a sip of tea, her delicate brows furrowed.

After reviewing the case file, she came up with this bold idea.

After all, two sword masters have emerged in just a few days.

Moreover, both murderers were at the fourth rank in strength.
