Beautiful girl travels through time and space to become a princess

A few days later, Lord Li, Shen Mo and others were still busy collecting evidence.

On this day, everyone met again in Lord Li's study.

Lord Li said solemnly, "Has there been any new progress in the past few days?"

Shen Mo shook his head slightly: "Sir, the court officials acted extremely cautiously, and we have not yet been able to obtain more solid evidence."

Lin Yuwei frowned and said, "Sir, this is not a solution. The important minister seems to have noticed something. Our actions are becoming more and more difficult."

My brother asked anxiously, "Are we just going to let him get away with it?"

Lord Li pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Don't be impatient. The more you are at this moment, the more you need to stay calm."

At this time, a subordinate came in hurriedly to report: "Sir, I just found that several people from the mansion of that important official went out in a hurry, and their behavior was suspicious."

Lord Li's eyes lit up: "Quickly send someone to follow them and see where they went."

The subordinates followed the order and left.

After some time, the subordinate returned.

The subordinate panted and said, "Sir, those people went to a manor outside the city and met with a mysterious person in the manor."

Shen Mo hurriedly asked: "Can you see the appearance of that mysterious man?"

The subordinate shook his head: "The village is heavily guarded. We dare not get close and cannot see clearly."

Lord Li paced back and forth and said, "It seems that there is something fishy going on in this manor. We need to find a way to investigate it."

Lin Yuwei suggested: "Sir, why don't we send someone to disguise themselves and sneak into the manor?"

The elder brother said: "This plan is feasible, but you must be careful not to be discovered."

Lord Li nodded and said, "Let's follow this plan and select a few smart people."

A few days later, the people sent to Zhuangzi came back with a report.

The spy said, "Sir, there are many experts hiding in that manor, and they seem to be guarding something important."

Shen Mo asked, "Can you find any clues related to the disaster relief grain funds?"

The spy replied: "In a secret room in Zhuangzi, we found some accounts that seemed to be related to grain payment."

Lord Li said, "Bring it here for me to see."

The spy presented the accounts, and Lord Li examined them carefully, his expression becoming increasingly gloomy.

Lord Li said angrily: "This is indeed evidence that the important official embezzled grain funds."

Lin Yuwei said: "Sir, can we bring him to justice now?"

Lord Li shook his head: "It's not enough. With just these accounts, he will definitely quibble. We need more direct evidence."

The elder brother said, "Sir, what should we do?"

Lord Li thought for a moment and said, "Send someone to keep an eye on Zhuangzi and look for more evidence. At the same time, start with those who have close contact with the important official."

Everyone took the order and went about their business.

A few days later, Shen Mo came to see Lord Li excitedly.

Shen Mo said excitedly: "Sir, we have gained something. We have captured a confidant of that important official, and he is willing to tell the truth."

Lord Li asked quickly, "Tell me quickly, what did he say?"

Shen Mo said: "He explained in detail how the important official planned to embezzle the disaster relief grain funds and how he colluded with various forces."

Lord Li slammed the table and said, "Okay, now the evidence is solid."

Lin Yuwei said, "Sir, shall we go and capture that important official immediately?"

Lord Li said, "Wait a minute, this matter needs to be carefully considered. That important official has many followers in the court, and if we act rashly, something unexpected may happen."

The elder brother said, “What should we do?”

Lord Li said: "First, present the evidence to the emperor and gain his support."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Lord Li went to the palace to meet the emperor and presented the evidence to him.

The emperor was furious: "How dare you be so bold and presumptuous, Li Aiqing, I order you to arrest the traitor and bring him to justice."

Lord Li accepted the order and expressed his gratitude.

After returning home, Lord Li gathered everyone together.

Lord Li said: "The emperor has given the order, we must act immediately."

Everyone responded in unison: "Yes!"

Lord Li led his men straight to the residence of the important official.

Lord Li shouted loudly: "Traitor, your crimes have been exposed, why don't you surrender!"

The important official sneered and said, "Master Li, please stop slandering me. What evidence do you have?"

Lord Li threw the evidence in front of him: "Look for yourself."

The official's face changed drastically, but he still pretended to be calm: "This is a false accusation. Someone is trying to frame me."

Shen Mo said: "At this point, you are still quibbling."

In the end, the important official was brought to justice.

When the people of the capital learned about this, they applauded.

Commoner A said, "Lord Li is truly a great judge. He has made the decision for us."

Citizen B said, "That's good. We will get the relief grain money."

Lord Li comforted the people and said, "Don't worry, the grain money will be distributed to everyone in full."

After some rectification, the capital finally returned to its former tranquility.
