Li Yu waited for the two children to fall asleep and came out of the room. Seeing that Granny Chen was still sewing, it seemed that she had made clothes for the children. She smiled and said, “It’s too tiring to do needlework at night.

Granny, rest early.”

Granny Chen smiled. “I’m old and don’t sleep much. Madam, go and rest first. I’ll watch over the young masters.”

“Alright!” After Li Yu agreed, she went to the next room to take a look at the sleeping Yangyang before turning around and returning to her room. She then dried her hair with a handkerchief.

In the study, Ji Xiang told Zhou Jia about Old Lin being shot dead and the bandits coming to the manor. He said indignantly, “Master, those people are simply heartless. They even brought torches during the night attack and planned to set fire to the manor.”

Zhou Jia pondered for a moment and said, “They’re already coming for us. Go back and tell Ruyi and Zhao Cai to investigate all the servants on your side again. Send out those who are suspicious as soon as possible.”

Ji Xiang nodded. “Yes, Master. I’ll tell Brother Cai and the others and investigate the background of those people.”

“You’re tired too. Go back and rest first!” Zhou Jia said.

The two of them had just walked out of the study when Ruyi returned from the Ministry of War’s storeroom. Zhou Jia looked at his exhausted appearance and patted his shoulder. He said gently, “Go! Go back and rest for the night. We’ll talk tomorrow.”

“Yes, Master.” Ruyi and Ji Xiang agreed and left together.

Zhou Jia sent Ji Xiang and Ruyi off and quickly returned to his room. He saw Li Yu sitting in front of the dressing table and drying her hair with a handkerchief. He walked forward and looked at Li Yu with burning eyes.

Li Yu felt Zhou Jia’s gaze and turned to look at him with a smile. “Silly, why are you staring blankly?”

“I just want to take a good look at you.” Zhou Jia smiled and took the handkerchief from her hand. He gently wiped her hair. Looking at his wife smiling sweetly in the bronze mirror, his empty heart was filled.

Li Yu grabbed his hand and leaned against him. She said gently, “Xiao Xi, I’ve made you worry.”

Zhou Jia leaned over and hugged her. He leaned over and kissed her. After a while, he whispered in her ear, “Yu’er, I miss you. You have to make it up to me.”

Li Yu looked at him with a loving expression. Zhou Jia picked her up and walked towards the bed.

Shen Zhong handed over the weapons that he had returned with Ji Xiang and returned to the palace to meet Chu Yuhao to report the situation in Liang Village.

Chu Yuhao originally thought that there were only a few hundred weapons. He was shocked when he heard that more than ten thousand weapons were hidden in Liang Village.

More than 10,000 weapons could not be forged in a short period of time. From the looks of it, when Second Brother got someone to occupy Liang Village, his brothers were working together to deal with him.

At that time, Second Brother had secretly prepared these things in Liang Village. From the looks of it, even if the eldest son became the crown prince, Second Brother had no intention of giving up on fighting for the throne. His brotherhood was just for show.

Chu Yuhao thought about it again. Since ancient times, the royal family had no kinship. For this supreme power, there was nothing strange about what Second Brother did.

Shen Zhong bowed and stood there. Seeing that Chu Yuhao was deep in thought, he did not dare to disturb him. He stood there quietly and waited for instructions.

After a while, Chu Yuhao said, ‘Get Sihai to send someone to find a job at Tongfu Inn to monitor it. Also, Li Hanlin mentioned Constable Leng from the capital’s government office and felt that something was wrong with him. Get someone to keep an eye on him for a few days and hand over the people brought back from Liang Village to Chu Sihai for interrogation. Ask him to meet Madam Li tomorrow morning.”

Shen Zhong bowed and replied, “Yes, Your Majesty.”

Shen Zhong came out of the palace and brought Big Stone and Manor Head Chi to the Four Seas Bank. He handed the two of them to Chu Sihao and told him what Chu Yuhao had said. He looked at Chu Sihao and said, “Head Shopkeeper, the weapons in Liang Village are very well-made. There’s also a lot of food stored on the farm. I’m worried that that person is hiding in the dark and waiting for an opportunity to cause trouble.”

“Sigh!” Chu Sihai sighed. “To be honest, the capital hasn’t been stable these days. I got someone to keep a close eye on the Spring Quarter Examinations, but something still happened.”

Shen Zhong looked at Chu Sihai in surprise. ‘Who dares to tamper with the Spring Quarter Examination? Do they want to die?”

Chu Sihai pulled Shen Zhong into the house and sat down. He frowned and said, “At midnight today, we caught two suspicious scholars from the examination hall. After interrogating them, the two of them finally confessed that their people were among the guards in the examination hall. The examination when they entered was just for show. They even said that those notes were provided by Madam Li’s cousin-in-law, Li Fengqi.”

Shen Zhong frowned. “That doesn’t mean they can bite whoever they want! Even if that person is Madam Li’s cousin- in-law, he won’t be able to get the answer to the Spring Quarter Examination!”

Chu Sihai looked at Shen Zhong and said, “You might not know this, but Scholar Lin is among the invigilators this time. He’s Madam Li’s maternal uncle. According to what I know, Madam Li’s aunt’s family has always been dissatisfied with High Scholar Li. They feel that he’s too utilitarian and even brought a letter to Madam Li, asking them to ignore her cousin-in-law’s family and not promote him.”

“Last time, Country Lord Ning even used the test papers over the years to bribe Li. She found out from him that Madam Li’s family had broken off the engagement and even sent someone to Tongzhou to bring that family to the capital. This matter didn’t work, so she tempted him by sending him to the Directorate and getting him to kidnap Madam Li’s child. Unexpectedly, he harmed his own child instead. I think those two people exposed Li Fengqi because they wanted to drag Madam Li’s family down and deal with Scholar Lin. ”

Shen Zhong curled his lips and said, “The Liu family shouldn’t have betrothed their daughter to such a greedy person. You should have arrested him.”

Chu Sihai shook his head and said, “The Liu family didn’t want their daughter to marry Li. It was their daughter who wanted to marry Li. That daughter was loyal to that man. Madam Li’s family was also afraid of harming Li. This time, we wanted to use him to fish, so we didn’t catch him on the spot. We got some laxatives and got him out of the examination hall. We got someone to keep an eye on him. We’ll talk about it after I’ve done my interrogation.”

“Sigh! Everyone has one or two troublesome relatives,” Shen Zhong said as he stood up. “I’m going back too. I still have to go to Liang Village tomorrow morning. ”

Chu Sihai stood up and nodded. “Alright, go back and rest. I’ll get someone to watch Leng first.”

After Chu Sihai sent away the people Shen Zhong had arranged to monitor

Constable Leng, he got someone to call a secret guard over and told him what

Manor Head Chi had instructed. He said to her, “Yan Niang, go to the Tongfu Inn in Shanyang County and think of a way to find something to do.” Yan Niang glanced at Chu Sihai and nodded in agreement.

After Chu Sihai made the arrangements, he went to the dungeon where Big Stone and Manor Head Chi were imprisoned. He said to the guards, “How are those two?”

The guard replied respectfully, “One of them is sitting against the wall dejectedly, and the other is expressionless. He fell there silently.”

Chu Sihai stood at the entrance of the door and glanced at Manor Head Chi, who had fallen into the grass. Then, he went to the next room and looked at the curled-up Big Stone. “Watch them carefully.”

“Yes, Head Shopkeeper,” the guard replied with a bow..
