Jiang Yue continued, “In the past, we didn’t have any evidence, and we didn’t know who the mastermind was. We couldn’t rush it. Now that we know so much and even have the evidence, we have to give it to Shi Yuan as soon as possible. That way, we can solve the problem of Da Chen’s heavy taxes.”

“Yes.” Xue Yan replied softly. “We’re going to Mister Qi’s house tomorrow morning to pay New Year’s greetings. right? We’ll go to Mister Ji’s house at noon, and Mister Yan’s house at night. Then, we’ll stay in town for a night. The day after tomorrow, we’ll go to Mister Lu’s house again. It just so happens that Xue Shi and the others won’t be going with us. Only the two of us will go to pay New Year’s greetings to the gentlemen. It’s always like this every year. We’ll send someone to tell the gentlemen today that we have something important to do. We’ll also ask them to help cover it up so that the children at home won’t go looking for us. That way, the family won’t know that we left.

Mister Ji, Mister Qi, Mister Yan, and Mister Lu were the Four Sages of Shengming Academy. They were Xue Yan’s teachers. Every year, Xue Yan and Jiang Yue would go to visit them during the New Year.

Naturally, they would visit Mister Zhang’s family as well. However, Pei Dongyu was Mister Zhang’s son-in-law, so he was more or less related to them. Therefore, in the past few years, Mister Zhang’s family had not only sent Jiang Yue and Xue Yan to pay New Year’s greetings. Xue Sanhu and Pei Fufu would also go. His brother would also bring Xue Ningzhi, Xue Ningyuan, Xue Wuze, Xue Wuchuan, Xue Tianji, Xue Tianyi, and Xue Tiancheng along with their seven sons.

“Every time the black door is opened,” Xue Yan continued, “It’s always near Stone Village. Stone Village is so far away from the capital of Da Chen, much farther than the government offices in Lizhou. It took about half a month to investigate Fan Jianxi.

“It’ll probably take at least a month to go to the capital, sneak into the palace, find Shi Yuan, and give all the things in the secret chamber to Shi Yuan. We should leave early tomorrow morning and come back at noon the day after tomorrow. It’ll take about thirty hours, which is about thirty-six or thirty-seven days. It just so happens that we don’t have to visit relatives tomorrow. We might as well pretend to go to town this afternoon and stay in town for the night. If we stayed in town, we wouldn’t have to wake up so early to go to Mister Qi’s house for dinner tomorrow morning.

“Since the family knows that you are pregnant, they would want you to rest and not go. Actually, we can go to Da Chen this afternoon if they agree to let you rest more. We will go this afternoon and come back at noon the day after tomorrow. That means we can leave Da Ling for forty-five to forty-six. It is still calculated as one day in Da Ling and one month in Da Chen.

“Therefore, we can stay in Da Chen for about fifty-seven days, which is close to two months. This should be enough time to complete this whole thing. Although we only went to Da Chen this afternoon, it’s not a big deal that we left. We have all of Fan Jianxi’s evidence. He would not dare to tell Qiu Pusheng about it. If Qiu Pusheng knew that he had left evidence of his crimes, would he still let him live? He’s such an insecure and cunning person.

“He can’t be sure who took the things in the secret chamber. He’ll suspect that Qiu Pusheng did it. No matter who did it, he’ll be on tenterhooks every day. It is more likely that he would take the initiative to secretly report to Shi Yuan the issue. There’s no chance of telling Qiu Pusheng about what happened. If that’s the case, Qiu Pusheng won’t be informed of this matter, and he won’t be able to act before it’s too late. There won’t be a mutiny, and naturally, he won’t rebel for the time being.” Xue Yan said.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
