Don't worry about traveling through time, she has an all-powerful senior sister to help her

When they carefully brought the black wooden box home, Shen Chi did not use the key to unlock it, but broke the box violently.

Under Shen Lingzhu's surprised gaze, he explained: "Your uncle said that the key was taken away when the house was searched."

After saying that, he slowly took out something wrapped in layers of oil paper from the box, opened it and saw that it was actually an account book.

The above records in detail the materials that Minister Sun either withheld or embezzled, with the dates and persons in charge clearly written down.

And note the source of each discrepancy in the existing Ministry of Works account books.

Huang Zongqi had also studied at the community school. He read about two pages and then pulled Shen Chi over and asked, "Did your brother tell you who to give it to?

He will definitely not let you take this account book to Shuntian Prefecture. "He didn't believe that Shen Huai hadn't explained if something was accidentally destroyed by someone.

Shen Chi said: "He asked me to hand him over to Mr. Han, but he is not in the capital now, and he may be sentenced at any time.

I thought, even if the prefect is not very good, he is still the emperor's man."

“What if I give it to the wrong person?

There's more than just Minister Sun here, so who knows who's behind the other doctors and chief officials? Huang Zongqi was once again irritated by his brother-in-law's cleverness.

Shen Chi quickly comforted him: "Don't be angry, big brother. Going to Shuntian Prefecture was my previous idea, but now that I see the contents of the account book, I dare not go."

"It seems that I really need to find Brother Xie and give the things to Eunuch Wang." Huang Zongqi remembered what Xiao Zhuzi had said before.

At this time, Shen Lingzhu, who had flipped through the account book roughly, heard him say this, put down the account book and said, "Uncle, I only said that originally.

It's very likely that someone on the account book has already been affected by the Shi family, so it would be inappropriate to hand it over to the Wang family without knowing the details."

After a pause, she continued, “Besides, the list written by uncle is too long, so I plan to make a brief one.

We will leave Beijing to look for Mr. Han, while my uncle will wait for us here."

More than 20 people are involved. Even if my uncle clears his original stigma, he will still be retaliated against by those who escaped in the future.

She was absolutely certain that no matter who got the account book, someone would be missed.

"Your father and I will go and find out who has been imprisoned or dismissed from the Ministry of Industry.

Little Bamboo, please stay home and don’t copy people’s names for now.

Now, even if that Sun guy is sentenced, we can't be impatient." Huang Zongqi said as he was about to take Shen Chi away.

Shen Chi wanted to object but was glared at by his brother-in-law and was speechless.

After the two left, Shen Lingzhu was left alone to open the account book again and study it in detail. Fortunately, the account was relatively simple at this time.

Without double-entry bookkeeping, she could barely make sense of it.

For the next two days, she studied and copied non-stop until her uncle collected the list of people imprisoned by the Ministry of Industry.

Shen Ling finished copying and wrote the names of these people on it. As for those who were not on the prison list, she would write their names on the new account book based on who benefited the most.

On this day, when many people in the capital went to Caishikou to watch the execution, Shen Lingzhu and his father, Chi Erye, quietly left the capital.

Mr. Han was not far from Beijing, he was inspecting Xuanfu.

If they walked fast, Shen Lingzhu and his daughter could reach the destination in four or five days, but unfortunately they were driving a mule cart instead of riding horses.

And because it gets colder the further north you go, fifty miles a day is the fastest.

After walking for three days, they stayed at a large inn along the way.

Shen Chi was worried that his daughter didn't eat well, so he went to the kitchen to ask someone to help make some mutton noodles. Unexpectedly, he met someone familiar.

To be precise, it was the person in the portrait he painted on Xiao Zhuzi.

Shen Chi immediately returned to the guest room to look for his daughter without making a sound. He closed the door and whispered, "I saw Shi Wulang behind me."

"Really?" Shen Lingzhu suddenly became excited. "Is he alone?"

Shen Chi said: "Not sure. I'll go check it out later."

She immediately became suspicious: "Is there something wrong with this big carriage shop?"

“Not necessarily, there are villages nearby, or he may be hiding in the village.

You see, the inn is bustling with people, and if he had been here all along, surely more than just us would have recognized him." Shen Chi told her to close the doors and windows and wait for news from him.

But Shen Lingzhu couldn't let Mr. Chi face it alone, so she took out the potion and powder prepared by her senior sister, and took out a mirror to paint her face.

A quarter of an hour later, she appeared in the kitchen courtyard dressed in men's clothes. She looked around but did not see Mr. Chi.

I opened the back door, but no one was there. Instead, the shop assistant saw me and ran over to me, asking, "What are you doing? You can't open the back door without permission."

"Looking for my dad, he said he came to feed the animals." Shen Lingzhu thought of the row of animal sheds he had just seen by the door.

The servant said, "You are a little kid, don't go out alone. You might get lost and not be able to find your way home."

"Thank you, uncle. Is this your home?" Shen Lingzhu asked him as if chatting, and saw him walking towards the water, and followed him.

Oddler: "Hey, kid, aren't you afraid of getting lost?"

“Follow uncle and wait for my dad, I will definitely not get lost.

You haven't told me this is your home yet?" Shen Lingzhu acted like a stubborn child. Of course, even if she grew taller, she was still nine years old and weak.

The handyman got off the bucket while pushing the wheel, and said with a smile, "This is a shop for business, not my home.

I work as a janitor and handyman for my relatives."

Shen Lingzhu squatted beside him and asked again: "Oh, is your home far away?"

Oddler: "Not far, just three or four miles to the west. There's a big market there all year round."

“It must be very lively.”

"Of course. People from all over the country come to our market to do business, and people from the garrison often go there too."

"Apart from the soldiers in the garrison, it must be whoever has money and often goes to the market. Who is the richest person in the surrounding area?"

"You know a lot, kid. There's a lame Lu in our village, and he wasn't a military household.

Just a few years ago, he injured his leg in the war and came back with a large reward. He then bought land, built a house, and got married, becoming the richest man in the village except for Wei Xiaoqi.

I heard he made a lot of money in business this year and even went to Xuanfu to buy several servants. He's so arrogant."

"Wow, that's amazing." Shen Lingzhu's eyebrows jumped. He didn't expect that he asked this question just when he wanted to find out if there were any strangers in the nearby village.

She then asked, "Does he bring a group of people with him and walk around the streets waving a fan every day?"

The servant couldn't help but laugh when he heard her childish words: "Hahahaha, silly boy, that's what's being performed on the stage. Lu Er is very smart, never showing off and is kind to the orphans and widows in the village.

Not only does he have a good relationship with his neighbors, he also treats Wei Xiaoqi as a brother.

Occasionally, we send a leg of lamb or a pheasant to our boss, which makes us very popular."

Shen Lingzhu quickly asked, "Did you deliver it today as well?"

"It was given as a gift. You didn't see it. It was a cow's leg. They said it was a cow that fell to its death. Tsk tsk tsk." The servant was envious.

Shen Lingzhu also pretended to lick her lips greedily, "Where does Mr. Lu live? Can my father go there to make friends?"

"Hey, you wish. Stop running around and go back to wait for your dad." The servant took away the two buckets of water.

Shen Lingzhu left the backyard thoughtfully. She walked through the front gate and stood in the open space next to the inn, looking west.

Then, I saw someone running in the wheat field...
