Chapter 1843: I’m Very UneasyEditor: Henyee Translations

As expected, Dali’s expression instantly turned serious.

"Is he colluding with Marquis Pingnan?"

"Yes, let’s find evidence first. It’s best if we can get something tonight. After tomorrow, the county magistrate might receive news from the Xuanhe Prefecture and be on guard."

Vigor nodded. "I see. Where are you going to search?"

"The study and the bedroom," Shao Qingyuan said. "Since you’re here, the three of us will act separately. You search the study."

"Okay."

Then, Shao Qingyuan pointed out the location of the study to him and left with Gu Yundong.

Dali was speechless. So when you said to split up, you were just going to split up with me?

In the end, they still despised him and wanted to get rid of him, right?

Dali snorted, but he still quickly got down to business.

Gu Yundong and Shao Qingyuan avoided the servants on night watch and soon came to the window sill outside the county magistrate’s bedroom.

"They’re inside." Shao Qingyuan listened and suddenly frowned. "There are voices."

Gu Yundong was surprised. "It’s so late. Why isn’t he asleep?"

As soon as she finished speaking, the commotion inside suddenly became louder.

The county magistrate sat up from the bed and took a sip of water.

Immediately after, a graceful figure came out from the bed curtains. "What’s wrong, my lord? Is it too hot to sleep? I’ll open the window and let the breeze in?"

The county magistrate didn’t say anything, so the woman walked to the window and opened it.

Gu Yundong and Shao Qingyuan hurriedly lowered their bodies. Fortunately, it was night and the woman did not look out, so she did not see them.

However, as soon as she opened the window, the angry voice of the county magistrate came from inside. "Why are you opening the window? Do you think there aren’t enough mosquitoes?"

The woman was stunned and hurriedly apologized. "I didn’t think it through. I’ll close the window now."

Then, she reached out and lowered the two windows that had just been opened.

Shao Qingyuan was quick-witted. When the woman closed the window, he took a small stone and placed it on it. The window was blocked and wasn’t closed tightly.

Gu Yundong gave him a thumbs up. The two of them looked at each other and smiled. Then, they looked in through the gap in the window.

The woman just now should be a concubine of the county magistrate. Gu Yundong had asked around and found out that the county magistrate had three concubines.

The one he doted on the most was a concubine surnamed Chang who had grown up with him. It was said that Madam Chang had a good relationship with County Magistrate Mao and was the concubine who had been with him the longest.

Looking at this woman’s age, she was likely the rumored Madam Chang.

After all, the other two concubines of the county magistrate were only in their twenties.

Madam Chang quickly took out a fan and fanned County Magistrate Mao. She looked aggrieved. "Sir, don’t be angry. It’s my fault. I’ll fan you, okay?"

The county magistrate felt much better and spoke more gently.

He pulled Madam Chang to the side and said, "Alright, I’m not angry with you. I’m just very frustrated and can’t help but feel a little angry."

"Sir, are you feeling frustrated because of the two people you saw during the day?"

"That’s right. It’s one thing for Princess Yongjia to suddenly appear, but she has a close relationship with the Yang family."

The county magistrate rubbed his eyebrows. "I’m very uneasy."

"Sir, do you mean that they might deal with you for the Yang family? Then, would I be treated as a thorn in their side? After all, it was me back then..."
