Chapter 418 Ledger

It was quiet for a while, and someone whispered in the dark:

"Is she the princess?"

Looking for fame, Su Muer frowned, "Yes, since Mr. Wang asked me to come here, why are you still hiding your head and tail? Why don't you come out and meet her honestly?"

As she spoke, she walked inside, and the people inside were also walking outside.

The man came closer and hurriedly bowed and clasped his fists in salute.

"Princess, my Majesty, Wang Ji, I have no choice but to ask the princess to condescend to come here to meet you. I hope that the princess will be honest."

Su Muer had no intention of listening to his polite words, she said directly:

"Tell me what you want to tell me."

Wang Ji rubbed his hands and suddenly knelt down, "Xiaguan is guilty, Xiaguan deserves to die, it is the prince who deserves to die."

Hearing this, Su Muer's brows knitted together. She looked at the man kneeling in front of her and frowned.

"What do you mean?"

Wang Ji sighed and said softly:

"The lower official has long heard that the Seventh Prince is a fair and honest man who is devoted to the country, so he has the courage to inform him about the affairs in Jiangnan. Who would have thought...who would have thought that before he could eliminate harm for the people, he would be killed by that dog official Zhu

Datou was killed."

After hearing this, Su Muer's expression became nervous. She looked at the thin man in front of her. Should she believe his words? When she first arrived, she was not sure who was the good guy and who was the bad guy.

But she still nodded and asked:

"Since you know something, you might as well tell me."

Wang Ji looked up at her, "The princess doesn't seem to believe me?"

This did not surprise Su Muer. It turned out that he was a very smart person.

So she nodded directly, "You're right, I really don't believe you, but you can tell me what you know, and I want to see if you can be trusted."

Wang Ji slowly stood up from the ground, then nodded,

"I have already harmed the prince, and I can no longer harm the princess. I invited the princess here today. I just want to tell the princess to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible. The death of the prince is related to Zhu Datou. We really can't let the emperor send troops."

Su Muer suddenly wanted to laugh. A small government office actually asked the emperor to send troops? Does Wang Ji think that the emperor is someone who can just send troops to attack his city?

She pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled,

"If you want to say it, I'll see if I can do it. If you don't want to say it, forget it. I don't have time to grind my teeth with you here."

After saying that, she turned to leave, but Wang Ji stopped her directly,

"Princess, please wait."

He raised his wrist to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and then said:

"Okay, since Mr. Wang will die sooner or later, I'll just tell you what I know."

Hearing what he said, Su Muer chuckled and turned to look at him,

"Say it."

Wang Ji thought about it for a while, then took out a ledger from his arms and handed it to her.

"Princess, please see, this is the account book and the number of beauties that Zhu Datou has paid tribute to the officials in the capital over the years. If it were not for the protection of these officials, how could he be so dominant here?"

Su Mu'er took the account book with a solemn expression and opened it in her hand. She was familiar with the list on it. There were many ministers and ministers in the court, all of whom had relatively high official positions.

She put the account book in her sleeves, then nodded, "Can you show this account book to others?"

Wang Ji shook his head, "No, I originally wanted to give it to the prince, but since the prince came to Jiangnan City, Zhu Datou has been following him step by step. I was afraid that the prince would be discovered by him, so I didn't dare to give it to him."

"Does Zhu Datou know about this account book?"

Wang Ji nodded, "He also has a copy of this account book. My copy was secretly left by me when I was keeping accounts. He didn't know the existence of this account, but the content in it was exactly the same as his.

.”

Su Muer suddenly realized the seriousness of this matter. It seemed that Zhu Datou was not an easy person to deal with.

She put the account book down in her arms and said to Wang Jida:

"Didn't you collude with that Zhu Datou?"

'No no.'

Wang Ji hurriedly waved his hands and shook his head, "That Zhu Datou has committed such a heinous crime that I have long been disgusted with him. If it weren't for this little salary, I would have quit working long ago."

Su Muer pulled the corners of her mouth and chuckled,

"Okay, regardless of whether you are colluding with him or not, if your account is true, then I will let the emperor absolve you of your guilt."

After saying that, she waved her hands and turned around and left the ruined temple.

Wang Ji, account book, Zhu Datou.

At this time, she was walking alone on this unfamiliar road, but she didn't feel sleepy at all.

She had to find out about this matter, otherwise she wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.

Thinking of this, she looked around and saw no one, so she quickly walked towards the government office.

With her skill, she quickly entered the government office. It was late at night and the government office was quiet except for the occasional barking of dogs.

She squatted on the eaves and glanced down. There was only one room with lights on, which looked like an ancestral hall. The rest of the rooms had turned off the lights and were sleeping.

She flew down from the eaves and looked from room to room. She wanted to find Zhu Datou's study. If she found the same account book, Wang Ji's words would be credible.

She looked from room to room and finally found Zhu Datou's study. She quietly opened the door and entered, then turned around and closed the door.

At this time, a long sword was pressed against her behind her, "Don't move."

Her heart suddenly rose to her throat. Could it be that she had been deceived by Wang Ji? But Wang Ji didn't know that she was coming to Zhu Datou's study, and he didn't say that Zhu Datou's account books were in the study.

At this time, even if she had all the skills, she could not move. She could feel that the sword was less than an inch away from her waist.

She held her breath and the other party asked directly:

"Who are you?"

Su Muer frowned, and the moment she turned back, she directly grabbed the man's sword head, and then struggled with him.

In this dark night, even in the study room, she could not see her hands and fingers. Su Muer could feel that the other party did not want to make the matter a big deal. He was backing away step by step to make way for her. It seemed that this person was not from the government office.

She stopped moving forward and slowly took a few steps back, "Who are you?"

The other party was stunned for a moment when he heard her voice, and then looked at her in surprise, "Are you the princess?"

The person in front of her was wearing a veil, so she couldn't see his face clearly, but he could call her and seemed to know her. She asked directly:

"who are you?"

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and the man in black hurriedly made a shushing gesture, and then motioned for her to squat down.

After a while, the footsteps outside faded away, and then the man in black said:

"We met during the day."

As he spoke, he pulled off the veil on his face. Su Muer looked at this face carefully, but she didn't understand where she had seen it before.

"Who are you?"
