    Yin Junfu closed the window and walked quietly into Wen Yu, putting his index finger to his lips.

    In the blink of an eye, Wen Yu blew out the lights in the house.

    The moonlight outside the window spilled into the house, which is not pitch-dark, but only a blurry shadow can be seen.

    Why did he suddenly blow out the lamp, Wen Yu looked at Yin Junfu suspiciously, but she also knew that Yin Junfu must have discovered something, otherwise he did this behavior for no reason.

    At this moment, the night is already deep. If it was Wen Yu's home in Capital City, almost everyone would have rested, but it's different here.After the lights in the house were turned off, footsteps could still be heard, maybe it was a maid or a servant, the footsteps were very light, but if you listened carefully, you could still hear the slight sound of walking.

    Yin Junfu stared out of the window, then leaned down and whispered in Wen Yu's ear: "There is something wrong with the people here. The servants of the prefect of Chang Yi seem to be in your residence all the time, and there are shifts."

    He has been observing for more than an hour. In the two places of Wen Yu's residence and study, there are servants passing by almost every incense stick, as if they are patrolling, but there are no other places.

    Wen Yu looked out the window at the occasional passers-by, and there was indeed no problem with shifting guards at night. This might be the original rule of the prefect of Chang Yi.But if such thoughtful "service" is only carried out around her residence, then there is a problem.

    "Then where do you and Uncle Lu live?" Wen Zhen frowned.

    "Steward Lu and I are normal for the time being. It's just that these attendants are here too frequently. Tomorrow, you need to order Steward Lu to reorganize these people. You can't let these people who don't know the details stay in the mansion."

    Wen Yu raised her eyelids, tapped her fingers on the table unconsciously, and slowly shook her head, "Jun Fu, you can't change it yet. The Shen family is deeply rooted, and our power is weak.Heart."

    Yin Junfu blinked, and said innocently: "Well, I didn't think carefully."

    "No, your idea is right. But the purpose of our coming here is for another matter after all. The enemy is in the dark and we are in the dark. Maybe it's not just servants. Those officials in the magistrate's house may have been bribed by the Shen family.people."

    What Wen Yu wants to know most now is whether the members of the Shen family and Xie Yuanlin know the purpose of coming to Changyi.Is it because they knew that they took such strict precautions, or the new magistrate who came to Chang Yi no matter what the purpose was, would suffer what happened to him.

    Wen Yu couldn't help but think of when Chen Xiangkun reached out to the Yi Xin county government office in order to control the underground casino, and to prevent the bandits on Changfeng Mountain from being arrested and sabotage the plan.

    What kind of person was the original prefect Lin? Did he "betray" by being bribed by the Shen family?

    Today Yu Xiuyue seems to have told himself everything, but in fact Wen Yu knows that the information he has received is very limited, and a large part of this limited information is already known to him.

    Yin Junfu added in a low voice: "Besides, that fellow acquaintance named Yu Xiuyue may be uneasy and kind to you."

    Yin Junfu knew that Wen Yu and Chang Yi Tongzhi were classmates, so he might not believe what he said, but he couldn't help but say it.Perhaps it was because of the jealousy that popped up in his heart, but it was more of Yin Junfu's innate intuition. He felt that Yu Xiuyue looked very hypocritical, like many old foxes he had seen in officialdom.Scene talk.

    Wen Yu did not refute Yin Junfu's words, "Thank you, I will be careful."

    Yu Xiuyue may not welcome her as the new magistrate as she appears on the surface, but she doesn't want to doubt her friend for the time being.

    "Wen Yu, those who ambushed and plotted against you on the road back then will be punished as they should be." When Yin Junfu said this, his voice was a little abnormal.Heard, in the dim environment, Wen Yu couldn't see his expression clearly.

    After saying this, Yin Junfu walked to the window, opened the window to observe quietly, and after a while, he said softly: "Then I'll go first."

    Then he turned over the window and left, and even closed the door for Wen Yu intimately.

    Wen Yu also followed his example and quietly opened the window a gap, just in time to see two maids carrying night lights walking slowly from the corridor far away.

    It was indeed not the same group as the two she had seen just now.

    Wen Yu was lying on the bed, her eyes widened suddenly, she forgot to tell Yin Junfu about that matter.Forget it, it's not too late to talk about it later.

    When Lin Zhongshui did learn from the little official Lin that the new magistrate had arrived, and that this person was Wen Yu, the expression on his face was uncontrollable excitement and surprise.The magistrate of Chang Yi is the fourth rank, Wen Yu, if it is really Wen Yu from their Lingchang County, this is really amazing.

    Lin Zhongshui carefully asked Lin Xiaoli about the news about the new magistrate, and when he heard that Lin Xiaoli's description of Wen Yu was exactly the same as the one he knew, he patted his thigh regretfully.

    Sin, sin!

    Lin Shenxiang, that is, Lin Xiaoli stuffed a few peanuts into his mouth, and looked suspiciously at Lin Zhongshui, who was beating his chest and feet, "Cousin, why do you look like this, maybe you also know the new magistrate."

    Lin Zhongshui sighed, "That Wen Yu is from our Yongshui Village in Lingchang County. Back then, I asked the matchmaker to marry her to Xiangzhao from our family. It's a pity that good fortune makes people, good fortune makes people!"

    Lin Shenxiang pursed his lips and didn't say anything. At the beginning, he just said it when he didn't like a poor scholar, but now he's talking about good fortune.

    In fact, he looked down on Lin Xiangzhao a little bit. It was wrong to be a good county magistrate. He went to Capital City and begged Yuan Zhan to marry him.In Capital City, I don't know which man's house I lived in for half a year.

    There's nothing good about going to the capital city where there are all high-ranking officials and aristocrats to find him uncomfortable. If he was Lin Xiangzhao, he would definitely find a husband's family whose family background was not as good as his own, and he didn't need to look at people's faces.Tsk, who knows if Lin Xiangzhao was thrown out of the house by that brother-in-law because he had an affair with that doggy man in the capital.He didn't believe that Lin Xiangzhao was reconciled, probably because his cousin said so to make his face look good.

    Lin Zhongshui stared at the relic in his hand secretly sad.

    Xiangzhao told herself that when she was in Capital City, she had been staying at Wen Yu's house, and the two were called brothers and sisters, and there was no crossing the line.

    But Lin Zhongshui had to think more.

    Last year, around the end of autumn, he received a letter with an ominous signature, which not only clearly stated what happened to his daughter in Sui Ning, but also wrote his daughter's current address on it.

    The words of this letter are very elegant, and there is no disrespect, but there is a hidden needle in the smile, and the implication is that if Lin Zhongshui still wants to look old, he had better take his daughter home as soon as possible.

    Although he is just an ordinary county magistrate fooling around, he is not so stupid after all.Especially when his daughter returned home, he even wondered if her daughter had become someone else's concubine and was driven back by his wife.

    He didn't want to speculate about Lin Xiangzhao like this, but that was his most beloved daughter.

    This time his father was seriously ill, and his family rushed here from Lingchang, but they could only see his father for the last time.

    Lin Zhongshui tightly gripped the things in his hand, he raised his head abruptly, "Shenxiang, I understand, you should go back first."

    Lin Shenxiang stuffed the last few peanuts in his mouth, clapped his hands, "Okay, cousin, then I'll go back first."

    the next day.

    In the inner courtyard of the prefect of Chang Yi, Lin Zhongshui was followed by a young girl with a delicate face, somewhat similar to him, but her eye sockets were a little swollen, obviously crying hard before that.

    Lin Zhongshui instructed Lin Xiangzhao in a low voice, "Don't be rude, that's not the original Wenzhen. She is the fourth-rank magistrate now, so don't think she is the same as a year ago. As a fatherIt is already an exception to bring you here today, girl, don't be out of line!"

    Lin Xiangzhao nodded obediently, but her heart was a little excited and a little timid.

    The boy who led the way led the two of them outside the door. Lin Xiangzhao had already heard Wen Yu's familiar voice, and she seemed to be explaining things to others.

    Lin Xiangzhao licked his lips nervously, and a thin layer of sweat broke out on his palms.

    "Wen Zhifu, Lin Zhongshui, a grassroots man, came to pay a visit." Because of his father's death, Lin Zhongshui had to observe mourning for three years, and now he has no official position.

    Lu Axi opened the door, and when he saw Lin Xiangzhao behind Wen Yu, he was slightly taken aback, "You two, please come in."

    Lin Xiangzhao saw Wen Yu at a glance, and panicked all of a sudden, instead of going in, she turned sideways and hid herself outside the door, preventing Wen Yu from seeing her figure.

    Wen Yu leaned over his desk and studied the file, so he didn't look up immediately.Hearing Lin Zhongshui's voice, she immediately stood up.

    "Caomin came here today to fulfill the entrustment of my late father, and to entrust this thing to you." Lin Zhongshui presented it with both hands.When he bent down and lowered his head, he realized that his daughter hadn't come in. Lin Zhongshui's expression was a little bad, but Wen Yu's presence wasn't easy either.

    Wen Yu also took it with both hands, which seemed to be a book, "Thank you, thank you."

    The water in the forest is here, so is Lin Xiangzhao there?Do you want to ask Lin Zhongshui about Lin Xiangzhao?Wen Yu pursed her lower lip, her lips were not opened, and her voice just escaped her throat.

    Lin Zhongshui shook his head hastily, "Wen Yu, can I call you like that?"

    Wen Yu said with a smile: "Naturally, the kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by the spring. If it weren't for your travel expenses, I might not be able to stand here."

    Lin Zhongshui looked at Wen Yu with admiration, and said hello three times in a row, "As expected of someone who went to high school at a young age, the level of thinking is different from others."

    After that, Lin Zhongshui frowned, and he sternly reprimanded outside: "Lin Xiangzhao, come in soon."

    Lin Xiangzhao was also here, Wen Yu was a little excited, her eyelashes trembled slightly, I have lost contact with Lin Xiangzhao for nearly a year, is she okay now?

    Wen Yu pursed her lips and looked outside the door. She didn't notice it just now, but there was indeed a shadow of a person there.

    Lin Zhongshui took a sneak look at Wen Yu's expression, it seemed that he didn't care about his daughter either!Lin Zhongshui sighed inwardly, Lin Xiangzhao's photo of that girl is really worrying!

    Lin Xiangzhao hesitated a few times standing there, and finally walked in.
