Hearing the roar, one of the officials trembled all over. After coming to her senses, she nodded and responded quickly: "Yes, I understand!" Although she agreed happily, her body was still shaking uncontrollably!
She walked towards the pile of account books with trembling steps, and each step seemed extremely heavy. When she came in front of the account books, her outstretched hand was trembling, and it took a lot of effort to take out the tinder from her bosom.
As the flames grew, the light illuminated her terrified and distorted face. At this moment, a cold wind blew, and the fire spread instantly, engulfing the entire account book in flames.
The leaping flames mercilessly devoured everything that could be used as evidence of a crime. At the same time, thick smoke rose up and filled the room...
"Host, why didn't you return to the mansion so late at night and hide on the beam just to watch them burn the evidence? Why didn't you stop them?
If these crucial pieces of evidence were completely burned to ashes, leaving nothing behind, wouldn't that be a huge problem for you? "The system was filled with doubts, and it really couldn't understand what Wan Qingyan was thinking!
At first, the system naively believed that Wan Qingyan was indeed exhausted and decided to return to the mansion to rest. However, it never expected that she would go around in circles and cleverly avoid teams of patrolling guards.
She jumped nimbly and landed steadily on the beam of the Ministry of Revenue's office. She watched silently as those people below killed people to silence them and burned evidence!
"Why should I try to stop them? I hope they can make more trouble. The bigger the trouble, the better it is for me!
These old hands are really ruthless when they start fighting among themselves, but do they really think that burning the account books will solve the problem? How whimsical! Haha!!!"
Wan Qingyan chuckled disdainfully. She had originally intended to give them a warning to see the effect, but she had just made a slight move and they used their ultimate moves. It was really boring.
"Host, how come you have learned to tell riddles? Tell me what you are thinking, please, satisfy my curiosity!" The system pleaded with a bitter face, and it looked even more miserable than a beggar begging for food!
It was already confused by Wan Qingyan's words, and after listening to them, it felt as if its head was stuffed into a pot of rice porridge. Its entire thinking became sticky and it couldn't make any sense at all.
However, its strong curiosity was like a claw, constantly scratching its heart, making it feel uncomfortable and it had to find out the mystery!
"The Empress sent me here because she was determined to deal with these old foxes. Although Wan Qingjiao is still imprisoned, she has been in charge of the Ministry of Revenue. If any problems arise, she will be held responsible.
These old foxes tried to put all the blame on the Minister of Revenue alone, and they thought that by burning all the account books, there would be no evidence. This idea is really ridiculous.
From the beginning to the end, the only chance for these old foxes to survive was to hand over the stolen money. The Empress's goal was to crack down on corruption, so how could she stop just because she had no account books!
Besides, if you really want to deal with them, it doesn’t matter whether there is evidence or not. It’s easy to find a pretext to accuse them of a crime, not to mention that they are guilty!
Besides, I still have three key account books in my hand. I brought them with me before leaving, just to guard against them!"
Wan Qingyan was in a good mood now, so he patiently explained to the system. He then took out three account books from his arms, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, revealing a smug smile.
"Host, I understand now that you put it that way. You're really smart. I wouldn't have thought of that!"
The system had a big smile on its face and was extremely flattering. It fawned over Wan Qingyan like a lapdog, hoping to get closer to her.
Wan Qingyan was completely uninterested in the system's flattering words. She felt deeply tired at the moment. Now that things had come to an end, she could finally return to her mansion and rest with peace of mind.
When she thought about how "bustling" the Ministry of Revenue would be tomorrow, she secretly made up her mind to have a good rest and conserve her energy to face the challenges that would come tomorrow!
Just as Wan Qingyan turned to leave, a sudden noise came from behind: "Oh no! The Ministry of Revenue is on fire! Everyone, quickly bring water to put out the fire! Move quickly!"
The guards noticed that there was a raging flame and billowing black smoke in the Ministry of Revenue, so they ran to fetch water and tried to put out the sudden fire as soon as possible!
Meanwhile, the system stared closely at Wan Qingyan. Seeing that she seemed to be in a good mood, it seized the opportunity to persuade her again, "Host, if you are free, you should go see Ye Yuanan. His current situation is extremely critical!"
The reason why the system was so eager to let Wan Qingyan go to visit Ye Yuanan was, on the one hand, naturally, it hoped to use this opportunity to further warm up the relationship between the two, and on the other hand, it was really worried that something might happen to Ye Yuanan!
"Ye Yuanan and Wan Qing are getting married soon, so he'll definitely be under strict supervision. How do you want me to see him? Should I go directly to the Ye Mansion to meet him?"
I could take the risk and go meet him, but if we were discovered, both he and I would be in big trouble, and all our efforts would be wasted!
Even if I was lucky enough not to be discovered by anyone and met him as I wished, what should I say to him then?
Do we have to persuade him to give up marrying Wan Qingjiao? However, this matter is not something that can be easily influenced by the two of us alone.
Originally, Wan Qingyan was in a happy and relaxed mood, but after she heard what the system said, her mood suddenly turned bad.
Deep down in her heart, she really wanted to visit Ye Yuanan in person and boost his love value, but unfortunately, the reality was right in front of her. Right now was such a sensitive and crucial moment, she really couldn't take the risk!
"........."
For a moment, the system was stunned and speechless by Wan Qingyan's barrage of questions!
It originally just hoped that she could go visit Ye Yuanan, but it never expected that this matter would be so complicated and difficult!
After a moment, the system couldn't help but said solemnly again: "Host, it's not that I'm a jinx, but with Ye Yuanan's current condition, I'm afraid he won't live to see his wedding with Wan Qingjiao!"
