“…Get out of the way…”

The long whiskers of the little orange cat scratched Li Mofu's face, as if a bug had fallen on his face, making him frown.

The little orange cat was frightened by Li Mofu's movement and slid down the "small slope". Then he moved his nose to smell Li Mofu curiously.

"Snapped!"

Li Mofu slapped himself hard on the face, waking himself up and scaring the little orange cat away.

"What is that..." Li Mofu scratched his face and opened his eyes, only to see a tiny thing huddled against the wall with its head drooping.

"You little brat are making trouble again. Hehe, I've caught you this time. Just wait and see how I'm going to torture you!" Li Mofu smiled, sat up and reached out to grab the little orange cat.

The little orange cat was frightened and was caught in Li Mofu's hand stupidly, making weak humming sounds.

"You little rascal, you come into my bed without washing your paws and your butt!" Li Mofu said, gently pinching the little orange cat's face.

The little orange cat put its tender paws on Li Mofu's hand. It had obviously done something wrong but it looked so pitiful. It was really adorable.

However, cats are really good at reading people's expressions. Seeing that Li Mofu was not angry, they began to twist their bodies and tried to escape.

It was also at this time that Li Mofu discovered that there was a little creature lying on his quilt at the end of the bed, squinting its eyes.

Turning over the little orange cat, Li Mofu sat cross-legged on the bed and bent down to pick up the little cat. The little cat, which was resting at the end of the bed, opened its eyes and looked at Li Mofu. It was so cute that people wanted to bite it to death.

"Is it because it's spring? It seems that you two are very excited, but you are still too young to be that excited." Li Mofu teased.

Unfortunately, the kittens didn’t understand Li Mofu’s teasing, nor did they know what Li Mofu was saying.

After playing with the cat for a while, Li Mofu got up and got dressed. Guozi heard the noise and brought him hot water for him to wash.

When they left the room, the two kittens followed them out of the room and into the small garden with their tails raised. Li Mofu did not restrain them because they did not dare to run far anyway.

Breakfast was eaten in the small garden. Li Mofu could see the two kittens climbing the tree while eating there.

Lu Mingyun has been very busy lately and has not been seen, but Mo Yi told them about the account book found in the yard, and also vaguely hinted that the secret hidden in the account book is related to "ironware".

Li Mofu understood this aspect very quickly, after all, he was an old reader who had read many novels.

This emperor has a son, brother or powerful official who wants to rebel!

Then, will Lu Mingyun, who found out about this matter, be murdered? Will they, as "family members and followers", be murdered?

This serious question was what Li Mofu often thought about after he learned about this matter.

In the face of the "great cause", it is still possible to kill a prince.

But the prerequisite is that they are ready to rebel.

If not, then they must be looking for a scapegoat to deal with what Lu Mingyun found out.

But Li Mofu remembered that Lu Mingyun came to Su County at the request and urging of the emperor. So the emperor actually knew that someone was going to "rebel" and he also threw this matter to Lu Mingyun.

Does he think that Lu Mingyun, as his nephew, is very suitable to handle this matter, or is it something else?

Li Mofu couldn't be sure either. After all, the thoughts of these ancient people were always convoluted, complicated and long-winded.

Lu Mingyun was busy investigating various suspicious clues, while Li Mofu was spending his daily leisurely life in the yard.

Playing with cats, shopping, listening to books, writing big characters, the gloom of those days was like ice and snow, melting and dissolving.

Then one sunny day, Li Mofu lay on a lounge chair in the small garden and fell asleep with two tired kittens.

Guozi went to sort out Li Mofu's Chunri clothes, thinking of taking them out to dry in the sun.

Mo Yi went to deliver something to Lu Mingyun, and Nanny Liang supervised the servants' work.

For a moment, there was only one person and two cats in the small garden.

Li Mofu thought that Lu Mingyun had found something and those people would deal with Lu Mingyun first. However, he had lived a good life for so many days and had already put those messy things behind him.

Unexpectedly, on such a beautiful day, he was taken away again.

The first person to discover that Li Mofu was missing was Guozi.

Guozi was in the house at the time, and suddenly heard a cat meowing in the small garden, and it was the kind of screaming that was shrill. Guozi felt strange and came out to see what was going on.

As soon as he came out, he found that Li Mofu, who had just been lying in the rocking chair, was gone.

When Li Mofu woke up again, he was in a cave. His hands and feet were tied and he was thrown next to a fire. Opposite the fire sat a man in black with his hair tied up.

"..." Li Mofu lay on the ground and looked at the man in black for a while, unable to recover from what had happened.

The last time he was so confused was when he was kidnapped by that weird old man.

Unexpectedly, the person who had been against them this time was not the old man, but a young man.

The man in black was very tall and looked very thin. His face was covered, leaving only his eyes exposed.

The eyes were very pale in the firelight, reflecting the color of the flames, and the eyebrows were messy and the eyes were not in line with the original. However, from the exposed skin, it could be seen that the person was very white.

"Awake?" The man in black raised his eyes and looked at Li Mofu. His voice was hoarse, like an old man.

Li Mofu looked at him, then looked around the cave.

There was nothing in the cave. Half of the entrance was covered by dry vines. Looking through the remaining space, one could only see earth color and a little green.

"Who are you? Why did you arrest me?" Li Mofu sat up awkwardly and asked.

The man in black looked at him for a long time, "What do you think?"

Li Mofu raised his eyebrows and stared directly at the man in black, "Were you the one who sneaked into my room before?"

"It's me. I was the one who threw the cat to you, and I was the one who made the paper man to scare you." The man in black shrugged.

Li Mo looked him up and down for a long time, then asked in confusion, "Now that Lu Mingyun has found the things hidden in the yard and knows everything he needs to know, what else can you do by arresting me?"

"The master said that once that thing is found, it's found. Even if we guess something, it won't be of any use. At most, a few scapegoats will die. After all, Lu Mingyun didn't find any clues to a specific direction. Everything is still just speculation." The man in black snorted.

Li Mofu blinked. The men in black meant that as long as Lu Mingyun didn't find the object that could identify the mastermind, they would not admit it.

"In that case, wouldn't it be unnecessary for you to show up?" Li Mofu said.

"...Yeah, but what can I do if I'm just unhappy?" The man in black looked at Li Mofu coldly.
