Han Zilan gently pushed her hand away: "Heh... a family? I'm just a dancer in Ruixiang Building, how dare I try to be a noble lady in the Shangshu Mansion." After saying that, she walked down the stairs.

Mother Li on the side said: "It's good that she knows her identity! She is not ashamed, and she wants to seduce my uncle!" Turning her head and looking at Lin Jingmo: "Girl, we are not really going to Uncle Anyang's mansion, are we?"

Lin Jingmo looked at the back of Han Zilan leaving, and shook his head: "Not now."

Mother Li smiled and walked to Lin Jingmo's side when she heard the words: "It's better not to go, it's better not to go, that's right, she has ulterior motives, who knows what's the purpose of deceiving us to go to Anyang uncle's mansion!"

However, Lin Jingmo turned around and looked at the guy who stopped them, with a frown, he took out a piece of silver from his pocket: "So it should be regarded as a distinguished guest, right?"

Seeing Qian's eyes open, the guy looked at Yin Zi's eyes and said, "Well...you can only go in for a quarter of an hour, and you have to come out after a quarter of an hour."

"It's settled." After finishing speaking, he put the silver ingot in the clerk's palm, and then led Mama Li to the third floor.

Lin Jingmo pushed open the door of the room where the incident happened that day, and found that the inside had been cleaned. She entered the room and looked around, and there was nothing unusual.

Mother Li followed behind her: "Girl, let's go, the room where the dead lived, how unlucky it is!"

Lin Jingmo walked to the bed, remembering the piece of paper she was holding in her hand that day, bent down and crawled under the bed, and she saw a page, she reached out to grab the paper and climbed out of the bed, sat on the bed and read it. It took a long time before he opened his mouth and said, "Mother Li, take this letter and send it to Uncle Anyang's residence."

Mother Li took the letter from Lin Jingmo and asked, "What about the girl?"

Lin Jingmo got up and walked to the window: "I have other things."

……

Lin Jingmo stood at the gate of the official mansion, looking at the tall Dengwen drum, without hesitation, she went up to pick up the drum hammer and started beating.

After a while, an official came out and asked, "Who plays the drum?"

The official took a closer look, isn't this the lady servant who was locked up that day?Her husband must avenge any revenge, because even the head of the inspection department has been convicted and imprisoned, so she can't be offended!
So he said, "So it's Mrs. Shang Shilang, is this... a knock?"

Lin Jingmo looked at the corner of his half-joking mouth, and frowned in displeasure: "You can play the drum at home, but can the government's drum... also be played?"

When the official heard the words, he hurriedly asked in a solemn voice: "The lady is this?"

Lin Jingmo shouted loudly: "I want to sue! Sue Zhang Renhuai, the eldest son of the Shangshu of the Ministry of War, for murder!"

The officer was shocked when he heard the words, you know, that Mr. Zhang is still serving food and drink in their classroom!So he hurriedly stepped forward: "Ma'am, the matter is very important. There is no first complaint and no evidence. What kind of complaint is this!"

Lin Jingmo looked at him, and said loudly: "I, Lin Jingmo, am the first accuser and the witness. I saw him push a girl named Lian Xin downstairs with my own eyes!"

The man asked again: "Where is Miss Lianxin now?"

Lin Jingmo lowered his eyelids, and silently replied: "Lian Xin is dead..."

The man smiled: "Then what does this girl have to do with Mrs. Shang?"

Lin Jingmo replied: "It doesn't matter if we meet by chance."

The official officer pretended to be helpless and said: "Then you can't sue this lawsuit." He took back the drum hammer, put it back on the drum stand and said: "The law says that you can't sue on your behalf unless you are a relative! You should go back to your house quickly."

Before he finished speaking, a sedan chair suddenly stopped at the gate of the official mansion, the door curtain was opened, and an old man with a gray beard and slightly fat came out from inside: "I am Uncle Anyang, Xu Zhou's uncle, can I sue?"

……

Inside the government office, Zhang Renhuai, who was neatly dressed, knelt on the ground indifferently.

Jingzhao Mansion Yin asked Uncle Anyang: "What is it that alarmed you, Uncle?"

Uncle Anyang replied: "The old man has no children, only one sister, who leaves a son who is always by his side. A few days ago, there was a villain who relied on his father to be a high-ranking official and ran amok because he competed with my nephew for a song." Trickster, stab to death with a dagger!"

Jing Zhaofu Yin said: "Oh? There is such a thing? Who is so bold?"

Uncle Anyang pointed to Zhang Renhuai, who was kneeling on the ground, and said, "That's the bastard! The servant of Xu Zhou in my house can testify."

Zhang Renhuai glared at Uncle Anyang unconvinced.

Yin Wei of Jingzhao Mansion said: "This matter is of great importance, and the lower officials need to report it to the higher authorities before reviewing it."

……

When Lin Jingmo returned to the Shang mansion, Mama Li welcomed her into the outer hall, handed her the teacup, and said, "Girl, I listened to your orders and sent the letter to Uncle Anyang's mansion."

"Well done." Lin Jingmo finished drinking the tea, but heard someone talking outside.

Mother Li said in a low voice: "Is it the uncle who is back?"

Lin Jingmo hurriedly put down the teacup: "Why did you come back so early today?"

Lin Jingmo pulled Mama Li up and hid behind the screen in the outer hall, not forgetting to take away the bowl of tea she had just had when she left.

But Shang Shixu was not the only one who entered the door, he greeted the other person to sit down and said: "Please, Shangshu." Then he ordered the little man outside: "Bring tea to Mr. Shangshu."

Zhang Shangshu?
Lin Jingmo looked out through the screen: Could it be that he is the Shangshu of the Ministry of War that people say?
Zhang Yiqian outside took his seat and said unhurriedly: "Shang Shilang is about to go to the north. I have a close friend who will accompany me. Don't worry Shang Shilang, he will definitely follow your instructions."

Shang Shixu smiled and said: "In that case, I would like to thank Lord Shangshu."

Lin Jingmo listened with half understanding, but didn't understand what they were talking about.

"Don't say thank you first." Zhang Yiqian stared at Shang Shixu with a half-smile and said, "Shangshu Lin gave birth to a good daughter. I heard that she is Mrs. Shang Shilang?"

Shang Shixu replied indifferently: "Exactly."

Zhang Yiqian snorted softly and said: "As the saying goes, you can't be close, but today I don't know if I should say a word or not."

Shang Shixu raised his eyes coldly, and said with a shallow smile, "But it doesn't matter."

"I don't know where the dog offended Mrs. Shang, causing Mrs. Shang to go to the government to beat drums and complain. I am willing to help Mr. Shi Lang. Can you also ask Mrs. Shang to raise your hand?" Zhang Yiqian stood up, moved closer to Shang Shixu, and said in a low voice: "As long as Mrs. Shang changes her words and says that she has never seen a dog before, everything will be solved!"

Lin Jingmo behind the screen couldn't help looking at Shang Shixu when he heard the words.

The smile on Shang Shixu's face gradually faded, but before it completely faded away, he bent his mouth again: "Master Zhang, please don't worry, I didn't go out at all that day."

"Hahaha!" Zhang Yiqian smiled in satisfaction.

After Zhang Yiqian left, Shang Shixu sat alone in the hall.

Lin Jingmo, who was hiding behind the screen, looked at his face in rapt attention. She couldn't figure out why he agreed to Zhang Yiqian's request?What does this have to do with his going to the north?
Accidentally, she gave away her hand, and the cup she was holding fell to the ground, making a crisp shattering sound.

Shang Shixu heard the voice and turned to look at the screen: "Who is it? Who is hiding behind the screen?"
