The next day Morning Court, the atmosphere in the entire court was a bit strange.

Jiang Yingcheng holds his chin with his hands, his eyes sad.

[Hey, why hasn't Grandpa Tan driven those people away yet? Didn't Chengcheng hint clearly enough?]

[But Brother Yuan is not willing to help Chengcheng write so many more words. Chengcheng has already tried very hard to coax him...]

If she could write more, she could attach two pieces of evidence.

"Alas." Jiang Yingcheng sighed very softly.

Several condemning glances were directed at Yuan Liangping, as if questioning why he was so ruthless.

Yuan Liangping's teeth grinding sound could be heard far away.

Chancellor Tan's house seemed to be a Spy nest. Little Princess would covertly mess up the order of writing at first, but as the two of them couldn't finish writing for a long time, she finally even gave up on herself and directly reported the complete name to him.

Even so, he still wrote for almost half an hour!

Several Military General looked at each other, feeling a little moved in their hearts.

They usually focus on training, and there are not so many bad things like Chancellor's Residence. Even if Little Princess accidentally breaks the news, it will not have a big impact on them.

However, their Military General's home has always been the best choice for spies from various countries who want to squeeze in to get information. At this time, it seems that Little Princess's ability to detect Spy is very practical.

Someone boldly took a look at Golden Terrace and secretly wondered what kind of excuse he should use to invite Little Princess to his house for inspection.

"Your Majesty!" Suddenly someone came out loudly, startling everyone who was deep in thought, "I have my own notes!"

The man was so excited that almost the second after Jiang Yanchuan responded, he said urgently, "I received an anonymous report yesterday. The letter stated that Mr. Tan, the right Prime Minister Tan Wenhan, has been accepting bribes for a long time, and the sum of all kinds of money is enough to fill the entire room!"

The whole court was in an uproar.

Jiang Yingcheng was also shocked and sat upright.

[Taking bribes?] She glanced at the person who reported the report hesitantly, [What nonsense is he talking about?]

Jiang Yingcheng I don't know where this person came to this conclusion, but the few people who could hear the little guy's voice immediately figured out the whole story of the incident.

I'm afraid that Chancellor Tan would have already launched a counterattack as soon as he got the list.

Several people couldn't help but look shocked.

This kind of reaction speed is really too fast.

Ji Yingrui didn't know what everyone else was thinking, so he kept talking about the news he knew.

From the place where the gold and silver was hidden to the placement of all the objects in the house, it was as if he had seen it with his own eyes. He spoke clearly and eloquently, "I originally doubted the authenticity of this letter, but what he said was too detailed, so I had to verify it with Chancellor Tan in person!"

He looked so righteous, as if he was about to sacrifice his life for justice.

Jiang Yingcheng was so angry that he opened the microphone like crazy in his heart.

[Ah!! That Spy named Mingyi is the one you sent, right!]

[Asshole, you bastard! You don't have big eyes, but you keep looking at loyal ministers every day. Your wife can't even see you transferring assets behind your back. You deserve to be miserable in your later years!]

Several ministers who were looking indignant suddenly laughed.

What about this thing?

Isn't this more exciting than Chancellor Tan's counter-attack and slap in the face?!

Little Highness Don't stop, say more! They love to hear it!!

Tan Wenhan, who was about to open his mouth to refute, simply closed his eyes, wanting to give Jiang Yingcheng some more time to eat.

Ji Yingrui After finishing his impassioned words, his expression instantly became blank.

No, he is reporting Chancellor Tan for accepting bribes. It doesn't matter if the ministers around him smile. What does it mean if Chancellor Tan closes his eyes?

Does anyone respect him as a whistleblower?!

Jiang Yingcheng lived up to expectations, and soon more melons came out of 007's body.

[Unexpectedly, the new servants in your house are all your wife's confidants. As soon as you go to court, they will go out to enjoy the snow and the scenery together. How happy it is!]

[And your new concubines who have been brought into the house are eating Bizi soup in private, because they don't want to give birth to a baby for your bald head!]

[Tsk, tsk, tsk, you are a dignified third-grade official, and you have the nerve to keep an eye on what is going on in other people's houses with such a ghostly appearance!]

Ji Yingrui finally couldn't bear it anymore and urged, "Master Tan, don't you have anything to say?"

Tan Wenhan slowly opened his eyes amid the low-pitched condemnations from around him.

Since someone wants to die at the third watch, he does not have to keep them until the fifth watch.

He didn't even look at Ji Yingrui, but bowed straight to Jiang Yanchuan.

"I did capture a thief in my house yesterday, but that person didn't want to pass on the financial situation of my family, but sneaked into my study."

"He copied several confidential documents and wanted to use the flying pigeon to deliver them, but was stopped by the nursing staff in the mansion."

"I followed my plan and wrote such a message with Chengbi, hoping to find out the person behind this."

The words stopped abruptly, successfully making Ji Yingrui's breathing stop at this moment.

"What... mean?" The roar in his head continued, and bursts of white light began to appear in front of his eyes, "That letter was written by your son??"

The Spy he sent to Tan Residence is the one with the most outstanding ability among his men. He acts extremely cautiously. The person he sent to Tan Residence has never made any mistakes in the past few years. How could he suddenly show his weakness?!

Tan Wenhan finally turned around and glanced at Ji Yingrui contemptuously, but without saying a word to him, he turned back to the direction of Jiang Yanchuan.

"I brought Chengbi's daily homework today." He took out another letter from his sleeve, "This letter is the real letter that Spy wanted to send yesterday."

Eunuch Changshun presented both evidences together.

Jiang Yanchuan has already learned all the information from the little guy's heart, and now it is just a formality.

He directly unfolded the letter Spy wanted to send, lowered his eyes and read it carefully.

The letter paper was not big, and the words on it recorded what Spy found as concisely as possible. Even so, Jiang Yanchuan still stared at the paper for a long time.

This period of time seemed to be stretched infinitely in Ji Yingrui's eyes, and as Jiang Yanchuan looked at it longer and longer, sweat finally began to fall from his forehead.

Xing Junchu is the Qing Court of Judicial Review who has the most stringent methods since the establishment of Court of Judicial Review. Ji Yingrui is very clear that if he falls into the hands of the other party this time, he will not be able to withstand the torture for too long.

Now all the hope is pinned on that Spy didn't write down the fatal message on that letter paper.

In this way, he can still make some inferences.

Jiang Yanchuan suddenly looked up.

The expression on his face did not change, and he even smiled in a good mood when he met Ji Yingrui's slightly nervous gaze, "Ai Qing, would you like to know what is recorded in this letter?"

Ji Yingrui quickly lowered his head.

He really wanted to know, but few people in the entire court dared to answer what Jiang Yanchuan said with such a smile on his face.

Ji Yingrui was shaking even more.

Just before he was about to faint from nervousness, Jiang Yanchuan's voice finally sounded again.

"Xing Junchu," he said, "Take him to have a good look."
