“Remember, safety is the top priority. We don’t need to rush.”The old butler handed the wooden box to Xu Bai and said arrogantly.
Xu Bai didn’t even bother to look back. He turned around and entered the backyard.
“You!” The old butler was stunned and was about to flare up.
When had he ever suffered such humiliation?
However, when he saw the bodyguards around him and thought about how he was alone here, it would not be good if he angered them.
“Humph! Don’t delay this important matter.”
The old butler snorted coldly and left with a wave of his sleeves.
A few bodyguards escorted the old butler to the door.
“Brother Xu, when are we leaving?”Liu Er quickly followed and asked.
This escort mission looked quite easy. It was just a small gift.
They had not forgotten the purpose of opening this bodyguard agency. It was to wash away the money in their hands. Now that they had this opportunity, they would not let it go.
“I’ll inform you when the time comes. We’ll talk about it in two days.”Xu Bai walked into the backyard and said without turning his head.
“Alright!” Liu Er and the others were not in a hurry. They watched Xu Bai enter the house.
“Everyone, hurry up and practice. Don’t cause any trouble.”
The escorts dispersed and returned to the front yard to practice their skills.
Inside the room.
Xu Bai placed the wooden box on the table.
There was a lock on the wooden box. It looked very delicate and complicated. It would be difficult to open it without a key.
“Kacha!”
Xu Bai pulled out his Ghost Head Blade and gave it a light flick. The lock broke in the middle.
Then, he eagerly opened the wooden box and found a letter inside. Underneath the letter was a thick book.
“Just like what I said at the time, this letter should be the thing that cleared him of bribery.”
The Wu family had appeared out of nowhere, so the problem must be with this letter.
Xu Bai placed Ghost Head Blade on the table and picked up the envelope. After opening it, he took out the letter inside and began to read it.
Not long after, he finished reading the letter.
“I knew it, I wouldn’t send a letter to the Wu family for no reason. So it’s to deal with me.”
This letter was sent to the Wu family in the capital. The letter was filled with the complaints and grievances of the Lin family’s old master.
The general content was that his son had died, and the cause of death was also explained.
Lin Fu couldn’t take it lying down if Magistrate Zhang didn’t help his family.
Therefore, he sent the accounts to the Wu family in the capital, hoping that the Wu family would help them.
As for what the Wu family did, the letter said that they were also a prestigious family in the capital.
The reason why the Lin family had a relationship with the Wu family was because the Lin family had a small business that was related to the Wu family.
This business was small, but Lin Fu still made use of it.
According to Lin Fu’s letter, he was willing to use half of the Lin family’s assets in exchange for protection.
This was not the most important thing. The most important thing was that there was another sentence added at the end.
“There was a mysterious person who threatened me as well. He had a long saber hanging from his waist. He was probably with County Magistrate Zhang.” It was obvious that this sentence was directed at Xu Bai.
After all, this was Xu Bai’s idea, and Lin Fu was worried that he might have something to use against him.
“Some people really think too highly of themselves. “Xu Bai tore the letter into pieces and burned it in the brazier beside him. Then, he took out the account book.
Why would a prestigious family in the capital be interested in a wealthy businessman in a remote county?
It was impossible.
Not to mention half of his assets, he might not even sell all of his assets.
The reason was very simple. When you had 100 million yuan, no one would be willing to pay 1,000 yuan to deal with a small county official.
As for the Wu family mentioned in the letter, he was not interested.
This was because they would not be sending it out at all.
The next part of the plan was the most exciting part.
The account book recorded the amount of bribes the Lin family had bribed County Magistrate Zhang. Every account was recorded in detail.
In this day and age, everyone had to leave a backup plan for themselves.
There was a possibility that the accounts were falsified, but once it was exposed, they had to investigate. If they found out anything, County Magistrate Zhang would not be able to survive.
Even though County Magistrate Zhang was able to cover the sky with one hand in Sheng County, if these things were really exposed, the Emperor of Great Chu would not forgive him.
Even if County Magistrate Zhang had all kinds of talents, the Emperor would not be lenient.
After all, this was a good opportunity to make an example of others.
Most of the accounts book was about normal transactions, but there were a few pages in the middle that contained the amount of bribes to County Magistrate Zhang.
Moreover, the letter emphasized that County Magistrate Zhang had forced him to do all this.
However, if he really wanted to investigate, would he be able to find out if he was forced?
He couldn’t find out.
Once this account was handed over to the capital, the Lin family would have the upper hand. Coupled with the Wu family, it might really be possible to wash away the suspicion of bribery.
“You really remember it in detail. However, the more detailed you remember, the faster you will die. “Xu Bai put down the account book and tapped his fingers on the table.
County Magistrate Zhang, Lin Fenghua, and the Lin Residence were all involved in Xiao Yue’s death.
Especially the Lin Mansion. Xu Bai would not believe that the Lin Mansion had not participated in this matter.
Now, Xu Bai had already come up with a comprehensive plan.
“You have planted a seed, and you have to return the fruit. Karma, karma, you have to taste the bitter fruit.”
He took out a few pieces of paper from the cabinet and wrote down the contents of the bribe.
When he was done, Xu Bai put the notes into his clothes.
He closed the account book again and placed the account book and the lock in a secret place in the house.
Then, he wrote another letter and took out the few pieces of paper from his clothes. He stuffed the notes into the letter and sealed the envelope.
After doing all this, Xu Bai changed into the clothes he was wearing before. He covered his face and went out to the front yard.
At this time, the sky was already dark, and the escorts had already left.
After leaving the bodyguard agency, Xu Bai walked toward the county office.
The gate of the county office was already closed, and no one was guarding outside.
Xu Bai came to the corner of the yamen and easily climbed in.
The design of the county office was very ingenious. The front vard was used to
do all kinds of things that the county office should do, and the backyard was where the county magistrate lived.
Although it was late, the oil lamp was still lit in the main room. Other than that, the other rooms were silent.
Xu Bai quietly walked to the front of the main house and knocked on the door.
“Who is it?”
County Magistrate Zhang’s surprised voice came from the room.
“It’s him.”
After Xu Bai confirmed County Magistrate Zhang’s identity, he threw the envelope in his hand on the ground and used the Four Xun Body Movements.
His figure was like a ghost as he disappeared into the corner.
The door opened, and County Magistrate Zhang poked his head out with a puzzled expression. He held a brush in his right hand, and a faint white light appeared on the brush.
It was quiet outside the house. There was no one there.
The envelope on the ground caught his attention.
County Magistrate Zhang frowned, picked up the envelope, closed the door, and walked into the house.
Not long after, the sound of a teacup shattering came from the room..
