After returning to Muwa Lane, the two sisters went back to their rooms to rest. After Jiang Jiang took a shower and changed her clothes, she began to write in her diary.

[The third year of Jianping, the second day of the ninth month, sunny.]

I didn't expect to reunite with my second brother so soon, and I certainly didn't expect him to become such a martial arts master in such a short time, even having a disciple. It's true that those favored by God are special. This time, my second brother returned and wiped out the bandits in Blood Tiger Ridge, finally avenging his father and brother. The only problem is the gold, silver, and some expensive jewelry he took back from the Blood Tiger Ridge treasure house.

When Jiang Jiang wrote here, her thoughts paused. She stood up, walked to the window, and gently pushed it open. The cold night wind blew towards her, making her thoughts clearer.

There are bandits outside the capital and countless treasures.

The background story is completely different from the original...

What is going on with all of this?

Jiang Jiang felt that she was about to discover the hidden plot behind this novel world.

She has now caught a clue.

Jiang Jiang took a deep breath, a glimmer flashed in her eyes, she calmed down and continued writing in her diary.

My second brother offered to give me all that gold and silver. I was tempted, but I couldn't bear to accept it. With so much going on in Kyoto lately, I feel like there's an invisible, dark hand stirring things up. Especially those bandits in Blood Tiger Ridge. They're nothing like the bandits depicted in the original storyline. They were chivalrous thieves who upheld justice, robbing the rich to help the poor, and even became Chu Yunyue's right-hand men, wholeheartedly helping her. Why are they now... murderous demons? Is there someone behind them, secretly manipulating everything? At this point, I can't make things complicated, and I dare not act rashly. But the Blood Tiger Ridge incident won't be hidden for much longer. My second brother said he rescued several trapped women in the mountains, and people from the Shengwei Escort Agency also went up to help. With so many people knowing about this, what if the authorities really investigate? Ugh, it's giving me a headache.

Jiang Jiang uploaded the diary directly, then stood alone at the window, feeling the cold wind, but she was thinking about something else in her heart -

Will tonight’s diary entry be effective?

Will Gu Yanqing...see it?

In fact, during this period of time, Jiang Jiang had a very absurd guess in his heart.

She guessed that Gu Yanqing might... be able to see her diary.

Jiang Jiang himself felt that this guess was a bit absurd, but after ruling out all impossibilities, this guess...

Maybe that's the truth?

Otherwise, it cannot be explained why Gu Yanqing happened to know her whereabouts and her inner thoughts so many times.

even……

Jiang Jiang remembered the reward she received every month. It was not called a perfect attendance reward, but a spoiler reward.

If her diary has no readers, then who should she reveal the spoilers to?

"Go crazy."

Jiang Jiang leaned against the window and murmured. Sometimes she felt like she was crazy, but she just wanted to give it a try.

just in case……

What if her guess is true?

In addition to recording daily life and plot, this diary may have a more important purpose, such as... passing information to Gu Yanqing?

**

Capital, Gu Mansion.

Jiang Jiang guessed correctly, Gu Yanqing was reading the diary she had just updated.

Li Ershan is back.

Gu Yanqing was not surprised, because Jiang Wen had told him some time ago that Li Ershan was planning to return to the capital. If his trip had not been delayed by Xue's army, Li Ershan could actually have arrived in the capital earlier.

As for the matter of Blood Tiger Ridge, Gu Yanqing was unusually serious.

Did Li Ershan really massacre those bandits and even bring the stolen goods back to the capital?

Doing things in such a high-profile manner must have left many traces.

"What a reckless man."

Gu Yanqing put down the book in his hand, put on his coat, and walked out of the bedroom.

A moment later, Gu Yanqing was already in the study, and standing next to him was Mu Kang, the chief steward of the Gu Mansion.

"Prime Minister, do you have any instructions?"

Mu Kang had gone to bed a long time ago, but was still called here by Gu Yanqing. However, there was no dissatisfaction on his face. Instead, he looked at Gu Yanqing with some anticipation.

The Prime Minister summoned us so urgently, there must be something important.

"Something happened in Blood Tiger Ridge outside the capital, and I need you to handle it personally."

Gu Yanqing glanced at Mu Kang, who was the most senior and capable person in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Blood Tiger Ridge? Those bandits?"

Mu Kang pondered for a moment, and all the information about the bandits in Xuehu Ridge immediately flashed through his mind.

"Prime Minister, do you need me to clean them up myself?"

As the chief steward of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Mu Kang has an extraordinary memory and can remember all the information he has handled.

As far as he knew, the bandits from Xuehu Ridge had been entrenched outside the capital for many years and had caused harm to countless caravans and escorts.

Of course, if it were just this, it wouldn't be worth the attention of Mu Kang, the prime minister's steward. What really concerned Mu Kang was that for many years no one had gone to wipe out the bandits in Xuehu Ridge, even though they were just outside the capital, under the emperor's nose.

Why is that?

Who is protecting them?

It is certain that there is someone behind the group of bandits, but Mu Kang doesn't know who is behind them. Could it be that... the Prime Minister has already found out?

Mu Kang was guessing when he heard Gu Yanqing's cold voice again: "The bandits in Blood Tiger Ridge have been cleared out, but I don't want people to know that they are dead yet."

Gu Yanqing glanced at Mu Kang as he spoke, a subtle smile on his lips: "The bandits of Blood Tiger Ridge must be alive, at least until the tenth day of September."

September tenth!

Mu Kang was slightly stunned, but immediately understood what Gu Yanqing meant.

"Please rest assured, Prime Minister. I will handle this matter myself." Mu Kang answered seriously.

"besides."

Gu Yanqing glanced at Mu Kang again, then turned slightly and whispered into his ear, "I've already figured out who's behind those bandits in Blood Tiger Ridge. Can you help me check it out..."

Gu Yanqing's voice became lower and lower, while Mu Kang's eyes became wider and wider.

The Prime Minister is worthy of being the Prime Minister. He is always one step ahead of others and has no omissions in his plans.

That night, Jiang Jiang was completely sleepless.

She couldn't sleep and couldn't fall asleep at all. Until dawn, Jiang Jiang opened her big bloodshot eyes and stared blankly at the curtains beside the bed.

System, oh system, can Gu Yanqing see the diary she wrote?

Could you at least give me a hint?

Uh, wait.

hint?

Jiang Jiang nervously opened her diary system, and the system panel was calm.

okay.

There are no attribute value reminders.

"Even if Gu Yanqing made arrangements immediately, it wouldn't be so fast, right?" Jiang Jiang lay on the bed and comforted herself silently in her heart.

Maybe tomorrow, tomorrow there will be good news?
