Yu Mo held a letter in his hand, with Shen Moran's handwriting on the cover.
He just fainted due to heatstroke at noon today. Now he was not resting in his room, but ran to her study, and she caught him in the act.
"I..." Yu Mo put the letter back in its place and said at a loss, "This is a misunderstanding! Sir, I saw a figure flashing outside the door in a daze. I followed that person here and saw the door of the study. He kept the door open and walked in."
"There was no one in the study. There was only this letter on the table. I was worried that the letter would be taken away, so I wanted to find a place to put it away..."
"I haven't read the contents of the letter. I'm really afraid that someone will take it away... Please forgive me!"
He knelt on the ground, his body crumbling.
Whether it's true or false, only he knows.
Si Yiluo walked over, raised his chin, and looked directly into his eyes.
"I will let you go this time. From now on, you are not allowed to enter or leave the study at will without permission. Anyone who comes, please send Mr. Mo back home!"
"Thank...Thank you, sir!"
Yu Mo stood up and relaxed, "I'll take my leave, villain."
Si Yiluo opened the letter. The paper inside was slightly messy, so someone must have read it.
"Xiang Yun!"
Xiang Yun ducked in and reported, "Sir, before Master Yumo came in, Master Beishu came in."
Yue Beishu... finally showed his fox tail!
"Keeping an eye on him, I want to see who spent so much effort to send him to me!" Si Yiluo raised a smile on his lips, "I hope you won't disappoint me..."
Xiang Yun should be holding his fists.
Si Yiluo read the contents of the letter and saw that the relationship between the fourteen officials involved in stealing gunpowder from the Ministry of War warehouse to make fireworks for personal gain was complicated.
The forces in the capital are so intertwined that it is difficult to define who is behind it, but if you want to take the opportunity to eliminate dissidents, this is a perfect opportunity.
These fourteen people are just the beginning.

"Selling syrup, here's a bowl of appetizing syrup -"
At dusk, near Xibianmen, the caravans going to Beijing for business unloaded their goods and loaded the goods into the warehouse. This trip was considered complete.
The weather is hot, and the stalls selling pulp and water are doing very well.
Yue Beishu walked along the road. His light white clothes were replaced by coarse linen clothes, and he was thrown into the crowd in ashes. His face was deliberately darkened. Although his slim body was different from the porters working nearby, he was not the same. It's too eye-catching.
"Here comes a bowl of water."
The vendor filled a bowl and handed it to him.
"Sir, two copper coins."
Slurry is a white slurry made from processed and fermented corn. It has the effect of resolving stagnation and quenching thirst. It is very thirst-quenching in the mouth.
After raising his head and finishing the drink, Yue Beishu wiped his mouth with his sleeve, looked around with his peripheral vision, dropped two coins and went into the alley next to him.
Xiang Yun stared at the hawker selling syrup, climbed up the wall, and rode on the edge of the roof tiles. While observing Yue Beishu who had crawled into the alley, he also observed the syrup stall.
The hawker's business was so good that the big men surrounding him blocked his view. Xiang Yun jumped off the roof and followed Yue Beishu.
Yue Beishu got into the small courtyard at the end of the alley.
A woman in black clothes and a bamboo hat in the courtyard said, "I've been waiting for you for a long time!"
Xiang Yun approached quietly.
"Si Yiluo is too vigilant, and his subordinates have never found an opportunity..." Yue Beishu handed the silently written secret letter to Xiao Poyun, "My subordinates have made a discovery. The relationship between Si Yiluo and Shen Moran seems to be more... It's intimate on the surface. The content in the letter was written by Shen Moran."
"You mean... Si Yiluo is very likely to be secretly colluding with Prime Minister Shen?"
Xiao Poyun breathed a sigh of relief, "If this is the case, even if Bo Bao and the two pavilion elders join forces, they cannot defeat Shen Benxing. If Shen Benxing's family dominates... it will not be a good thing for us."
The more chaotic the court in the Zhou Dynasty was, the more they had no time to take care of themselves, so they would relax their vigilance against the Northern Liao Dynasty.
"Find a way to break up the cooperation between Shen Sanxing and Si Yiluo, and sow discord between Si Yiluo and Shen Moran."
Yue Beishu responded yes and asked hesitantly: "Do you want to place our people in the court of Da Zhou?"
During the time when Xiao Poyun came to Shengjing City, he contacted several old subordinates who had not yet been exposed, and Yue Beishu did not have many available people.
"No, you can understand the court by guarding Si Yiluo and find a way to gain her trust. The envoy sent by the father is about to enter Beijing, and Emperor Yao cannot be aware of the political turmoil in Beiliao..."
"Beiliao is at a critical stage of survival. We can only rely on you to gain a chance to breathe. We must be careful!"
Yue Beishu said seriously: "Princess, don't worry."
"You can't wait too long, go back quickly!"
Sure enough, it was Beiliao... Xiang Yun lay back on the roof. Xiao Poyun looked up and saw the setting sun on the horizon gradually disappearing under the opposite roof. The light in the yard suddenly became much weaker.
She clenched her fists, closed the courtyard door, and disappeared into the hustle and bustle of dusk.
…
Sihai walked through the corridor, with luxuriant crabapple branches and a rocking chair in the open space under the tree. Wei Heyan was lying on the rocking chair, with the fishing rod propped up by the lake, and a little maid staring at the water without blinking.
Staring until my eyes feel sore and unbearable, the fish just won’t take the bait.
The governor said that he wants to eat fish tonight, but... he can't catch it. What should I do?
Not long after the little maid entered the mansion, she encountered the task of serving the governor. The seniors ran faster than the other, leaving her behind.
Fish, fish, hurry up and take the bait! Please...
The little maid was so anxious that she almost cried.
As soon as Si Hai arrived, he was stared at by her big misty eyes. The expectation and fear in her eyes were all too familiar to him.
"Master Governor, the identities of the two male favorites in Mr. Si's house have been found out."
Sihai winked at the little maid and told her to leave quickly. The little maid burst into tears of gratitude and quickly got up and ran away.
"These two are actors raised by Prince Yu's family. I think it's His Highness Prince Yu who gave Mr. Si the hairpin."
Si Hai's voice sounded a little weak unconsciously. Since this afternoon, after personally giving Si Yiluo a boy's favor, his family's governor has transformed into a human-shaped ice cube. Wherever he goes, the temperature will automatically drop to freezing point.
It was so cold that people had goosebumps all over their bodies.
"You don't need to tell me about her!"
Wei Heyan closed his eyes and rested his mind. Si Hai did not dare to refute, so he said yes.
Looking at the motionless fishing rod, he felt uncomfortable holding some words in his heart. He sighed. With the murderous aura in his governor, even mosquitoes were gone within a radius of one foot. How could he catch fish?
The corners of his governor's lips are still swollen. He has had a toothache for the past two days and has lost his appetite. He hasn't eaten much, and his spleen and stomach have begun to feel uncomfortable again.
In the end, Si Hai couldn't bear it anymore and tried to persuade her: "Master Governor, I think Master Si has some friendship with you. Otherwise, he wouldn't feel sorry for you and asked me to cook pumpkin porridge for you every morning and evening."
"If you really like Mr. Si, why not make it clear to Mr. Si..."
"Although we are not real men, we don't have to do that..."
Wei Heyan opened his eyes and stared straight at him without saying a word. He was so frightened that he swallowed the rest of his words with a thud.
Perhaps because he was afraid that his death would not be happy enough, Si Hai paused, then bravely said tremblingly, "Si, although Mr. Si has four male favorites in his house, Mr. Si has not favored any of them. But, it can be seen that... Mr. Si wants to
What I want is not the body, but maybe a soul mate..."
