The tall groom who was taking care of the horses, with muscles all over his body, was thrown out by Wen Yan like a torn rag. Who else would dare to go up to him?

A group of people were dragging their luggage and staring at Wen Yan.

After a while, Yu Qianer heard the noise and rushed over. When he saw Wen Yan, he seemed to have found an outlet for his emotions and rushed over to hug her tightly.

Wen Yan thought inappropriately that being hugged by such a sweet and soft beauty was really soothing.

"Sister Wen, why are you here?" Yu Qian'er's eyes were red. She grabbed Wen Yan's hand and wanted to talk, but she didn't know where to start.

Wen Yan patted the back of her hand and said, "I heard something happened at home, so I came to help you."

Yu Qian'er's eyes quickly filled with tears. She forced a little smile and said, "Sister Wen, thank you...but my family's problems are not so easy to solve. Do you really want to intervene?"

"Yes, one more person means more strength." Wen Yan paused, and still told her that she was asked by Wang Jiu to be an undercover agent. Since they were going to be in the same camp, only by being honest with each other can they go far.

Yu Qian'er didn't take it to heart at all. She said, "Sister Wen, don't worry. I still have the ability to distinguish between these things. Even if you don't go, there will be others who will go. Besides, this is not your fault..."

Yu Qian'er choked up when she thought of her father who was still in prison. She calmed down and finally noticed the situation around her: "Sister, what's going on here?"

Wen Yan looked at everyone and her voice became cold and hard: "These people, seeing that the Yu family was in trouble, were about to flee with the money."

The few people were not afraid of Wen Yan, but Yu Qian'er was the master of the house and held their indentures in his hand, so the group of people panicked. They trembled and begged for mercy, crying and shouting to show their loyalty.

Wen Yan lowered her voice and said to Yu Qian'er, "Sister Yu, can you let me handle it?"

Yu Qianer nodded quickly as if he had seen his backbone.

Wen Yan asked Yu Qian'er to sit down, and she stood in front of the group of people. "I know that the Yu family is in trouble now, and no one wants to be dragged down. Husband and wife are birds of the same forest, but they fly away separately when disaster strikes. Husband and wife are all like this, not to mention that you and the Yu family are just an employment relationship."

Someone in the crowd immediately agreed.

"But now that there is a traitor named Lu Cang in the Yu family, there will be a second one. He has been in the Yu family for many years, and it is not a recent thing that people get their heads cut by making fake salt permits. How could he not leave any clues?"

"There is only one possibility, that there is a traitor hiding among you who helped him take away all the evidence!"

"This person is also the one behind the scenes who instigated everyone to run away! Think about it, your indentures are still in the Yu family. Even if you run away now, what's the point? As long as there is one person in the Yu family alive, you can't escape."

Wen Yan's words first confirmed Lu Cang's identity as a traitor, implying that the master of the Yu family was actually innocent. Then she said that there was a mastermind behind the scenes, implying that everyone was deceived, so the Yu family would not blame him.

A servant remembered the good things about the Yu family and dropped his baggage.

"The Yu family is indeed a good master."

"Yes, when my mother was sick, the owner of the family sent someone to treat her."

Some people also retorted: "But forging salt permits is a serious crime and the whole family must be executed! If we stay here, we will die!"

Wen Yan showed a hidden smile, and her fox tail was exposed. "Who said that the Yu family will be executed?"

The servant quickly made way, revealing a handsome scholar standing in the crowd.

Yu Qian'er clenched his fists and explained to Wen Yan, "This is Yu Nian's servant, Yu Shu. He is an orphan who has been raised by the family since he was young. They plan to train him to take over Lu Cang's position."

It turned out to be a book boy. Since he worked for Yu Nian, he naturally knew a lot. No wonder so many people believed him.

"Yu Shu? Tell me, where did you get the news from?" Wen Yan asked leisurely.

Yu Shu did not expect that he would be exposed so quickly. He was still trying to be stubborn. Wen Yan in front of him was just a young lady. What ability could she have? She might go home crying after a few words from him.

"Why do you care where I got the news? It has nothing to do with you, right? Besides, do you understand if I tell you?"

Wen Yan smiled slightly, "I don't understand, and neither do you, so I just believe what you say. But I do know one thing, now that Master Yu has been arrested, his children are still out there collecting evidence, and even the county magistrate has asked them to run errands for Master Yu, what does that mean?"

"It means that the county magistrate also thinks that the Yu family may be innocent! Besides, even if they are guilty, their family members are not guilty! What's more, you are just some people who have nothing to do with the Yu family!"

When everyone heard this, they realized that this was indeed the case. Aren’t the eldest lady and the young master both doing well here?

Yu Shu panicked when he found that everyone was gradually being led astray by Wen Yan's thoughts. He wanted to pull everyone back to their thoughts. "Even if that's the case, I haven't signed a contract with the Yu family. So can't I leave?"

"Of course you can go." Wen Yan glanced at him calmly, "But before you leave, you should leave behind anything you shouldn't take with you, right?"

After Wen Yan finished speaking, Yu Qianer immediately asked the people behind him to search him.

Soon, a lot of gold, silver, jewelry and some books were found on him.

All the things were brought to Wen Yan. She didn't look at them and said to the others, "Do you still want to leave? Just hand over the money that belongs to the Yu family and you can leave. But from now on, whether the Yu family can turn things around or not has nothing to do with you!"

After hearing what Wen Yan said, no one wanted to leave anymore. Why leave without money? Besides, it was really hard to find an employer like the Yu family, so it would not be worthwhile to leave.

Seeing that the situation had stabilized, Wen Yan pointed at Yu Shu and said, "Lock him up. I suspect he is also an accomplice in the illegal production of salt permits. Once the evidence is collected, send him to see the authorities."

No matter how Yu Shu called for help, Wen Yan ignored him and turned to look at Yu Qianer: "Let's go, let's go collect evidence."

Feeling the power coming from the other party while being held by the hand, Yu Qianer asked in a low voice: "Wen Yan, you are amazing. You knew who the accomplice was not long after arriving. How did you know?"

"I don't know," Wen Yan blinked her innocent eyes, "I just said it casually. Now the main thing is to keep them stable. The people behind the housekeeper will definitely have all the evidence destroyed. What we have to do is to find the evidence before they do anything."

I didn't know she could be so calm. Yu Qian'er was secretly amazed at how amazing her sister Wen was.
