As a result, because she accidentally broke a jade vase in Mrs. Lam's dowry, she was kicked out. Now she has to live by washing clothes for hire in a ragged alley in the west of the city. I don't beat around the bush and directly ask about things in the Lam Palace. At first, Mrs. Liu was hesitant, not wanting to betray her former master. I laughed coldly: "You've worked in the Lam residence for seven or eight years. Just because you broke a jade vase, they kicked you out. They didn't even let you take any of your personal money with you, forcing you to compensate all of it to your good master." "The Lam family is like this, what is worthy of your loyalty?" Mrs. Liu held the stack of bills I gave her and sighed: "Miss, there are indeed some strange things in the Lam residence. Every two months, there are people. came in from the back door in the middle of the night with a strange voice." "There were also quite a few trunks being transported in and out." "One time a slave woke up at night, accidentally saw a jingling sound inside, and didn't know what was contained." Mrs. Liu also said that the Lam family and Khuong family were indeed in-laws. But Lam Uyen Thanh's husband Khuong Dien and her father are so close that it's a bit too much. The two often secretly chatted in the study room until midnight before dispersing. After asking Mrs. Liu, I went to the big camp on the outskirts of the capital. I found my father's deputy, called Uncle Chu. I ask for your help in investigating whether the Lam family cooperates or interacts with any merchant fleet at the border. If so, what do they usually transport? At first, Uncle Chu wanted to scold me for being so rude, but seeing my serious expression, he finally agreed. After waiting about half a month, Uncle Chu ordered someone to give me an envelope. The content above is very concise and clear. The Lam family indeed has a trading fleet at the northern border. On the surface, they only trade a few medicinal materials and animal skins. These things all have official approval from the Ministry of Health and follow the official trade route. The problem was that Uncle Chu asked his former subordinate at the border to personally monitor the trip. After the Lam family's caravan passed through the border town, they did not follow the official path at all. But turned to the northwest. The northwest is the scope of the Ho clan's power. Combined with what Mrs. Liu said, the chests made a jingling sound when being transported. What's inside is probably not medicine or animal skin at all. It's the military world. 07 I told Tong Ky Vong all the clues I found. Late at night at Pig hour, he flew back and forth in my room. The semi-transparent soul alternately lit up and darkened under the candlelight. "Northern border, Ho clan..." He held his head, his eyes trembling lifelessly. "I remember. That year, I investigated the Lam family's interactions with the Ho people." "The Lam family hid the finished military weapons in chests containing medicinal materials, transported them out of the border, and then sold them to the Ho people for a huge profit." "I investigated for half a year, tracking each step. First floor. I found books, correspondence, and a list of weapons. The evidence is extremely authentic." "Enough to get the entire Lam family beheaded." Most of Tong Ky Vong's memories have been restored, he can remember what he did when he was alive. I quickly asked: "Where is that evidence? Where did you hide it? Could it be that it was destroyed by the Lam family?" He snorted, raising his chin. "Who am I? Do you think I'm really stupid enough to hide such important things in the house?" "Of course it has to be in a very secret place!" I was impatient, reaching out my hand to grab him: "Stop hiding it!" As expected, I grabbed it into space. He floated backwards, regaining his joking expression. He looked

I was very serious: "You definitely know that place." Do I know? "Do you still remember the abandoned temple we used to go to when we were children?" I was stunned. When I was young, I was nothing more than a little brat. Every day, I dragged Tong Ky Vong to my father's military camp, insisting on watching the soldiers practice, imagining that I would also become a General in the future. But the military barracks is an important place, we can't really let the two of us go in. In the end, we can only play in the nearby deserted temple, listen to the sounds of soldiers practicing and imitate to our hearts' content. When we grow up, we gradually forget that place. This kid hid things there. When a light as white as a fish's belly appeared on the horizon, I immediately turned over and got out of bed. Thuy Nhi was woken up by me and still dreamily wanted to follow me. But I forced her to lie down. The less people know about this, the better. If she follows in the opposite direction, she will be in danger. I changed into an unattractive rough-cloth outfit and disguised myself as an ordinary country girl. I sneaked out the back door and headed straight to the east of the city. The abandoned temple was even more desolate than in memory. Weeds grow taller than people's heads. I searched in the grass for a moment before finding the main door of the temple.
