In the backyard of the government office, Li Huai poured a cup of tea himself and served Yan Mu with both hands.

"Your Highness, please."

Yan Mu did not answer, but raised the sleeve on the left and slowly bounced the dust on it. Seeing this, Li Huai hurriedly put down the teacup and knelt down on one knee to slap Yan Mu.

When the filming was completely clean, he stood up and picked up the tea and brought it to Yan Mu.

Yan Mu glanced at him and then took the cup of tea. But he just took a sip and put it on the table in front of him.

"Mr. Li, it's really not easy for me to go out. I have to beat you up to guard my Highness outside Wanchun Garden." Yan Mu said coldly.

"Oh, Your Highness, you misunderstood. Those officials are protecting you." Li Huai explained in panic. "A murder occurred in the city, and a family of three died. The criminals were extremely cruel. The officials are really trying to protect your safety."

Yan Mu looked at Li Huai again and smiled faintly, "Sir Li, why are you panic? I'm just joking with you."

"It turns out that Your Highness is joking." Li Huai's face turned blue, but he could only smile with him.

Yan Mu picked up the teacup and took another sip, "In order to catch the murderer, Lord Li has locked down the city?"

"Yes, this murderer is in the city, I believe he will be caught soon."

"I came to see you, searching door to door, as for such a big disturbance?"

"Xiao Guan Yulun can only think of this method."

"I heard that the officials asked the officials to search for the Gu County Magistrate?" Yan Mu raised his eyebrows and asked.

Li Huai lowered his head and explained respectfully: "Someone saw him enter the Jiang family, and then the three members of the Jiang family were killed. He was very suspicious."

"I have had a brief contact with the magistrate of the Gu County, and he is not like a vicious person."

"People cannot just look at the surface."

"Mr. Li worked as a prefecture in Yanzhou a few years ago and was acquainted with this ancient county magistrate. Do you think he would kill people?"

Li Huai sighed, "The officials also hope that he is innocent. Only by arresting him can you ask clearly."

Li Huai's answer was completely missed, and he did not mention any of the accounts.

Yan Mu lowered his eyes: "I came to Yanzhou to investigate Yang He's corruption case. Lord Li knows?"

"Know."

"Can Li Futai help me with a helping hand?"

"this……"

"Don't want to?"

Li Huai thought about it and said, "I'm afraid that the officials are powerless."

"The Gu County Magistrate is an important clue in the Yang He corruption case. I want Lord Li to arrest the person and hand it over to me directly. This should not be possible, right?"

"This." Li Huai paused, "You can't do it, after all, it's all three lives."

"Mr. Li still needs to distinguish priorities."

"Your Highness also asks you to understand that your high official is a parent official in Yanzhou. You must give an explanation to the deceased and the deceased's family."

Yan Mu slapped the table with a palm and looked at Li Huai with a squinted eyes, "What if I have to want this person?"

Li Huai pursed his lips tightly, obviously thinking about not fighting Yan Mu head-on.

At this time, an official sent a small official trotted in and told me that I had something to report. Li Huai walked over and listened to a few words, stood there for a while, and then turned around and came back.

"Your Highness, I am sorry that the suspect Gu Zi'an cannot hand over to you. If you want to investigate the case, the official must also investigate the case. You are anxious and the official is anxious, so you can only offend Your Highness."

As soon as he heard this, Yan Mu guessed that Li Huai had captured Gu Zi'an and got the account books.

Since that's the case, Yan Mu doesn't have to go around in circles anymore.

"I will take it away from you, but I will take it away from the account book." Yan Mu said.

Li Huai was stunned. He probably didn't expect Yan Mu to suddenly say so directly, "Your Highness is confused about the official, what account book?"

"You are really confused." Yan Mu sneered, "A small mansion is foolish in front of me, which is a contribution now. If you offend me, will you have good results in the future?"

Li Huai naturally heard about the things that the Seventh Prince did in his early years. This person is not a good person, nor is it easy to mess with. Especially the emperor is the only one who is he and the fourth prince. The fourth prince is crazy and the throne can only be passed to this person...

Li Huai weighed the matter and said, "Your Highness, your highness wants to offer a plan to ensure that your Highness will make great contributions and make the emperor happy. May you make you the crown prince once you return to the court."

Yan Mu glanced at Li Huai, "You said."

"Gu Zi'an has several account books in his hand. These account books truly record the amount of tax paid by the people and merchants in Yanzhou in recent years, which is more than one million taels away from Yang He's report to the court."

"So Yang He did not embezzle, but the account book he handed to the court was fake."

"That's right."

Yan Mu tsk, "It seems that Yang He is innocent."

"No, he deceived the court and was also very guilty. Let's not care about him, just talk about these accounts. If we can recover 30% of Yang He's not collected, we can fill the treasury and solve the most troublesome problem for the emperor. At that time, you will be deeply trusted by the emperor, and the position of crown prince is naturally no problem." Li Huai thought that this idea was very powerful and was a little proud.

"Mr. Li doesn't plan to leave a way out for the people of Yanzhou."

"Your Highness is joking. Yanzhou is so prosperous now, so it's not too small for this little money."

"This little money." Yan Mu sneered, "Yang He has been in Yanzhou for seven years. I really want to pay 30% of the tax. Lord Li has thought about how many people would empty their property and even empty their property to make up for these grain taxes. And those merchants may not be able to withstand the heavy taxes and flee Yanzhou, or even close their doors. The current prosperity of Yanzhou has an instant opportunity to wither."

Li Huai smiled and said, "Your Highness is young after all. The people and the merchants are like a piece of water-sucking cloth. No matter how many times they twist, they can always get out of water as long as they tighten it."

"What's the twisting off?"

"If it is broken, it will be broken, but only one Yanzhou."

Yan Mu shouted, this was what the court officials said. Such people were clearly borers from the Darong court, and there were still countless such borers.

"I am indeed not a good person, but I love to be clean." Yan Mu stood up and flipped the dust on his clothes, "I especially disdain to join people like you who are full of rottenness."

Then Li Huaiyuan thought Yan Mu would definitely accept his proposal. After all, this treacherous minister who was famous in his early years did not expect to hear this.

"What's wrong with the missed tax recovery?"

"You are chasing the lives of the people of Yanzhou!"

"The official did something wrong without realizing it. Since your highness does not appreciate this, the official will hand over the account book to the court. Let's see how the court deals with it!"

"It seems that you don't plan to give these accounts to me?"

"Your Highness, it's getting late, you can go back soon."

Yan Mu narrowed his eyes and asked Li Huai to hand over the account book. It seemed impossible. He strode out, and Li Huai was sending him behind him.

"Be careful with your Highness!"

Under Li Huai's reminder, Yan Mu stepped into the mud pit and his face turned dark.
