However, once the late emperor passed away and the new emperor ascended the throne, the prefecture magistrate immediately started to reorganize.
The originally inconspicuous person suddenly became fierce.
Just like the cowpox vaccination method from before, and the medical conference not long ago, the prefecture magistrate was glowing.
Unfortunately, other than him, there were many officials who were not good.
Gu Yundong agreed with Shao Qingyuan.
Seeing that it was getting late, the two of them quickly walked to the backyard of the county office.
The guards in the county office were not very strict. Although there were people patrolling, with Shao Qingyuan and Gu Yundong’s skills, they still sneaked in silently.
During the day, Gu Yundong found an excuse to walk around the county office during the meal. The location of the county magistrate’s bedroom and study were already clear.
"Let’s go to the study first." When Gu Yundong and Shao Qingyuan saw a servant walking over, they quickly hid behind a rockery and discussed softly.
Shao Qingyuan looked at the distance. "Okay." The servant had just gone in the direction of the bedroom.
As they spoke, they carefully got up and walked out.
Unexpectedly, they had only taken two steps when they suddenly heard a motion. Then, a sword light approached from behind.
Shao Qingyuan was shocked. He quickly pushed Gu Yundong away and turned around to wele him.
However, in the next moment, the sword light suddenly retracted.
Shao Qingyuan narrowed his eyes and saw the person in front of him clearly. His face darkened. "As expected, like the master, like the servant."
The corners of the other party’s mouth twitched.
Gu Yundong took a step forward and sized him up. She said angrily, "Why are you here instead of protecting the young princess?"
Dali asked curiously, "How did you know that I was secretly protecting the young princess in the Yang family?"
Gu Yundong sneered. "Do you think we’re all fools? If the young princess follows us, won’t Yi Zilan send someone to protect her? Besides, you’re following our convoy behind. You have no intention of hiding your whereabouts. Unless we’re blind, we definitely know."
Dali looked up at the sky. Well, it was his fault.
Shao Qingyuan was impatient to see him. "What are you doing here?"
"I saw the two of you leave the Yang family sneakily, so I followed you here to take a look. Why? Is there something fishy about this county office?"
Gu Yundong said, "We’re sneaking around??? Your mission is to protect the young princess. What if something happens to the young princess?"
"Don’t worry, a panion is here. He’s with the young princess."
Gu Yundong was slightly relieved when she heard that there were people protecting the Yang family.
However, she couldn’t help but glare at him fiercely. Seriously, why was he following them?
Shao Qingyuan pinched her fingers and said to Dali, "Since you’re here, help me find evidence of the county magistrate’s crimes."
"Criminal evidence?" Dali raised his eyebrows. "You want to mess with him because he once overthrew the former county magistrate? That won’t do. The former county magistrate did mit a crime. If you want to use your position to take revenge, I have to stop you."
"You make it sound so righteous. If you’re really so selfless, stop your master first. He’s the model for using his position to take revenge."
Dali couldn’t help but touch his nose. Princess Yongjia was really merciless.
Seeing that it was getting late, Shao Qingyuan couldn’t be bothered to argue with him. He said in a low voice, "County Magistrate Mao is colluding with Marquis Pingnan. If you want to help your lord, it’s better to take the initiative."
