Chapter 473:1 Am Mo Xulin
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
When Gu Yundong went downstairs, he brushed past someone.
When that person passed by her, he said in a low voice, “Miss Gu, let’s talk in private.”
Gu Yundong was stunned for a moment. She turned her head and glanced at him.
This person looked very ordinary and was dressed in the same style as the guests in the inn. No one would notice him in the crowd.
But Gu Yundong could still feel that he was constantly tense. He was a martial artist.
She calculated the time and roughly guessed who this person was.
Seeing that she didn’t say anything or respond, the other party thought that he had been too abrupt and quickly added, “Mr. Qin asked me to come.”
Gu Yundong nodded and the man went downstairs first.
Seeing him leave the inn, Gu Yundong slowly walked out of the door as if she was taking a leisurely stroll.
That person walked at a moderate pace in front, and Gu Yundong followed him slowly.
Until he turned at an intersection and entered a small courtyard.
When Gu Yundong entered the courtyard, he realized that there were about a dozen people inside. All of them looked travel-worn. They looked like they had just arrived at Wanqing Prefecture.
Upon seeing her enter, one of them, who seemed to be their leader, immediately stood up. “Miss Gu, I’m Mo Xulin. I’m here on Lord Qin’s orders to investigate the Xin family. By the way, this is from Lord Qin.”
He took out a letter and handed it to Gu Yundong.
She opened the envelope. There were two full pieces of paper.
Gu Yundong read it quickly, but after reading it, she immediately cursed in her heart.
The content of Qin Wenzheng’s letter was very simple. He said that the news sent by Gu Yundong was very timely because the emperor was intending to deal with the magistrate of Wanqing Prefecture and the Xin family.
Previously, when the new emperor ascended the throne, he planted two trusted aides in Yongning Prefecture after the famine and Qing’an Prefecture after the chaos. Prefecture Magistrate Dai of Xuanhe Prefecture also became the new emperor’s subordinate. The commotion was too great. If he wanted to touch the prefecture magistrate of Wanqing Prefecture who had a deep foundation, he would be a little too hasty.
Especially since the Wanqing Prefecture had the Xin Family. The officials and merchants colluded to control the entire Wanqing Prefecture.
The emperor knew that the prefecture magistrate wasn’t a good person, and he also knew that the Xin family wasn’t clean. It was obvious just from how luxurious their residence was.
Now that more than half a year had passed, the emperor was indeed prepared to take down Wanqing Prefecture.
It could be seen from the fact that he had started to support the Duan family.
However, the Emperor had been collecting information on the Xin family and the magistrate. This information could not be too small. Otherwise, who knew when they would make a comeback?
Just as they were looking for a breakthrough, Gu Yundong unexpectedly gave them a pleasant surprise.
The Xin family was simply too daring. They actually dared to have dealings with the other two countries. This kind of dealings was not ordinary business dealings. Clearly, it was related to the Imperial Court.
Actually, Qin Wenzheng also knew that with the ability of the Xin family, even if they had dealings, it was only some money transactions. The Xin family was not qualified to come into contact with the center of political power. Even if they wanted to betray their country, they would not be able to do it.
However, this was enough. Especially when it was related to the prefecture magistrate here, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to kill the entire family.
Therefore, Qin Wenzheng sent people over to prepare for a drastic reorganization.
The question was… Why did he want her to find a way to get incriminating evidence?
Gu Yundong wanted to slam the table. Wasn’t her mission over after informing them? It was enough for her to just wait and watch the show. Why was Qin Wenzheng still adding trouble for her?
Gu Yundong slammed the letter on the table and pointed at Mo Xulin.
