Ji Ning, the eldest son of Ji Fang, the tenth emperor of the Dagan Empire, was born to the concubine of Ji Fang, who served as Dagan Emperor, and was not the eldest son. At the age of 12, under the control of the current Empress Dowager Xuan Shu, he became the throne of Emperor Dagan.

He has been in power for 33 years.

Dagan Palace, Donghunting Pavilion.

"I heard that last night, Your Majesty and the Queen Mother had a big fight in Ansheng Palace?" Lin Mo asked faintly as he looked at the Emperor Dagan who was sitting behind the desk and his hands were full of blue veins.

"Bang--"

Emperor Dagan smashed his right fist on the table and cursed angrily: "That bitch Xuan Shu actually forced my Lan'er to take the poison of Yedura flower. I wish I could eat his flesh and sleep with his skin."

Just last night, Queen Dagan took Qingfeng Detoxification Pill and took a Ri Ling anther bath to detoxify. The moment she entered the medicine bath, she made a heart-wrenching sound of pain.

The habits of Sun Linghua and Yedra Flower are the opposite. Once the two medicines meet, conflicts will arise. Those who want to relieve the poison of Yedra Flower will have their whole body like a needle, and the needle will prick the heart.

If Lin Mo hadn't given Qingfeng Detoxification Pill, which diluted part of the toxicity of Yedura Flower, the Queen of the Great Fried Stomach would have been so painful that she would have collapsed. However, every time she soaked, the toxicity of Yedura Flower would be relieved, and it would not be so painful next time.

Last night, Emperor Dagan looked at his beloved wife who was in pain in the medicine bath and became angry from her heart. She completely lost her tolerance and concerns of the past. She ran directly to Ansheng Palace and had a big fight with the Queen Mother.

Because the Empress Dowager had nothing to do with Ji Fang, and needed Ji Ning, the puppet emperor, so she didn't do anything to him. In the end, she just sent someone to throw Ji Ning, the big knight emperor, out of Ansheng Palace.

Although Emperor Dagan's move was reckless, Lin Mo had a little more appreciation for him. Emperor Dagan could challenge the empress dowager who was clenched heavily for the sake of his beloved woman. He was a man of great affection.

After scolding, Emperor Dagan suppressed his anger and said to Lin Mo: "Lin Qing, have you figured out a way to help me get the imperial power?"

"Don't worry, your Majesty, the first gift I gave you will come to your hands in seven days."

Lin Mo nodded slightly, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said, "The Empress Dowager holds three armies of armed forces. There is Duke Shan Guo, Li Tai, in the army, in charge of the 300,000 army. The first gift I gave to Your Majesty, please be at peace."

After leaving the palace, Lin Moshu stretched comfortably: "That girl Qingcheng was so troubled last night. She was only 21 years old. What kind of child are you anxious to have?"

After dinner last night, Lin Mo arranged a room for Changsun Youyin to stay. He wanted to hug Bai Zhilan and Bai Li Qingcheng to rest, but he never expected that Bai Zhilan's menstrual period would come, so he went to another room.

Without Bai Zhilan, the girl Baili Qingcheng completely let go and shouted that she wanted to give birth to Lin Mo's first child. Baili Qingcheng is a practitioner at the swordsman level. She has excellent physical strength and has been tormenting Lin Mo for an hour before she will give up.

After stretching, Lin Mo felt that his fatigue disappeared in an instant last night. He turned around and asked Xifeng and Qiu Yun who were following behind him, "Let's go, let's go to the Ministry of Revenue and investigate the case."

"Yes, the sect leader."

To find out the mystery of the disappearance of Mrs. Fu Yunsheng, the governor of Kezhou, we must first start with the women who have mysteriously disappeared over the past eighteen years and have died for no reason.

If you want to find out which women were missing and what their identities were, the most direct way is to take charge of the Ministry of Revenue, which is responsible for the household registration of the people, because every time a person dies, the Ministry of Revenue has to cancel the account.

How many people in Dakan are closely related to the annual taxes of the Ministry of Revenue? Among the Dakan Emperors, there is such a tax called the captive tax, which is the tax collected by the people of Dakan according to the population.

For example, if there is a family in the Dagan Empire with five people in the family, each of which has two copper leaves, then the family will have to pay the head tax and ten copper leaves.

After about two quarters of an hour, Lin Mo's four horses and silver squats stopped in front of the gate of the Ministry of Revenue.

"Cao Yuan, a doctor from the Ministry of Revenue, pay homage to the Lord Shangqing."

Lin Mo had just stepped down four horses and silver siblings, a rich man in his purple crown and six-beam crown and hat on his head, led a dozen officials of different grades to greet him and bowed.

Looking at the fat man, Lin Mo smiled secretly. Cao Yuan, a fat doctor in the Ministry of Revenue, really made himself full of energy.

After laughing secretly, Lin Mo picked up the honor that Shangqing should have and smiled and said, "You guys don't have to be too polite. I'm here to investigate the case this time. I hope you guys will give me some convenience."

"What did Lord Shangqing say? It is the duty of the officials to cooperate with you to investigate the case." Cao Yuan smiled flatteringly, and his skill in flattering and slapping skills became more skillful.

"Then I will thank Doctor Cao and all the lords."

This doctor from the Ministry of Revenue, who was in the second rank of Cao Yuan, was one of the limbs of King Rong. He knew that Lin Mo was the one who asked Emperor Dagan to go down the mountain, but he was still so polite to Lin Mo. There was no need to guess. Lin Mo also knew that this must have been explained by King Rong long ago.

There are two reasons why King Rong can explain this. One is to win over Lin Mo's heart.

Second, Fu Yunsheng, the governor of Nakezhou, and Zhang Guo, the governor of Yunzhou, are both important officials under King Rong. If something happened to their woman, they should be found out as soon as possible and give an explanation, especially to Fu Yunsheng.

At the welcome of Cao Yuan and all the officials of the Ministry of Revenue, Lin Mo led Xifeng and Qiu Yun to the main hall of the Ministry of Revenue and explained his purpose. Cao Yuan ordered the officials of the Ministry of Revenue to get busy, while Lin Mo sat comfortably in the main seat waiting for the news.

After sitting for a while, Lin Mo felt bored, so he smiled at Cao Yuan who was sitting below drinking tea, "Doctor Cao must have worked very hard on weekdays, right?"

"Not working hard." Cao Yuan shook his fat head: "The lower-ranking official is deeply trusted by His Highness Rong. How can you say that you have to work hard for His Highness Rong?"

"Yes." Lin Mo smiled loudly: "I believe that Doctor Cao is fifty-four years old and is about to retire in six years, right? I wonder if there are children in my heart who inherit your position. I can also meet my future colleagues."

Retirement, hand over official positions, that is, retirement. Officials from the Dagan Empire can retire at the age of 60. After retiring, officials of the third rank and above rank will be succeeded by their children.

"Sir Shangqing is wrong. The lower officials are already fifty-six." Cao Yuan laughed and sighed again: "It's shameful to say that. There is only one son and twenty-three, but he lingers in the fireworks all day long, and it's not a good weapon. In the future, he can only think of His Highness Rong to let the lower officials retire later."

You old guy, you haven't been satisfied with the Ministry of Revenue for so many years, and you still have to continue doing it, right? You are not afraid of suffocating to death in this position.

He cursed Cao Yuan in his heart, but Lin Mo smiled and comforted: "Doctor Cao doesn't need to worry. As the saying goes, a tiger father has no dog son. Doctor Cao is so powerful, the noble son will definitely be able to take on the great responsibility."

"Oh, I hope I can be as what Lord Shangqing said."

Cao Yuan sighed and suddenly turned aside: "I heard that you have taken another concubine yesterday by Lord Shangqing? Alas, it's a pity that the officials don't have a daughter. If there is one, I will definitely send you to Lord Shangqing and become a concubine."

"What did Doctor Cao say? If you have a daughter, how dare I take it as a concubine? That would be a disaster for me!" Lin Mo waved his hand quickly. At this moment, he knew that the fact that Emperor Dagan gave Changsun Youyin to him was no longer a secret.

Yes, the palace is full of spies from the Hou Party and the Rong Party, how can we hide it from them?

"My Lord, don't be humble." Cao Yuan smiled and said, "My Lord, who is a talented man, is only twenty-thirteen years old, has become a senior minister of this rank. If he follows the right lord, he will definitely have a bright future in the future, and he will be the junior official..."

"Report to the two adults, I found what I wanted." Cao Yuan was about to say something, and a fifth-rank official wearing a light red crown and a three-beam crown hat walked in with a list.

"Okay, submit it to me."

Lin Mo didn't want to go down with Cao Yuanxu and Wushe (yi), so the fifth rank came in, which helped Lin Mo a lot, so he hurriedly asked him to submit the list.

"Affect the order."

Lin Mo took the roster and looked at it. This was a roster compiled by officials from the Ministry of Revenue. It clearly recorded the name, age, occupation, etc. of the missing woman in the past eighteen years.

After counting carefully, there were more than 400 people, but Lin Moxin knew that there should be more than 200 people. According to Yi Hongcai, the director of Changle Inn, a woman would be missing every about one month, a total of fifteen years, with about 200 people.

As for the more than 200 more people, it is not necessary to think about it that Cao Yuan added it, and the purpose is to greed for the cap tax of these more than 200 women.

Lin Mo looked carefully and according to the records in the list, most of the missing women were women aged 20 to 40, all married, and most of them were women who had children.

"Woman, a woman who is twenty to forty years old, married and has children." Lin Mo murmured softly with these key messages, but he had not obtained any valuable clues for a long time, and the suspicion in his heart increased a little.

A quarter of an hour later, in front of the Ministry of Revenue.

"Doctor Cao, thank you to Your Highness Rong for your behalf. I have recorded the convenience you gave today." As he said that, Lin Mo supported Xifeng with Sima Yinsi.

"Yes, Lord Shangqing, your thanks will be conveyed to Your Highness Rong." Cao Yuan led the officials of the Ministry of Revenue, bowed and watched Sima Yinsi leave.

On the street of Zhuque Tian.

Lin Mo sat in the four horses and silver squads and puzzled the clues they had just investigated. Lin Mo didn't understand why most of the missing women were married women aged 20 to 40 and had children.

"Xifeng Qiuyun should not go back to the house first, go around."

"Yes, the sect leader."

Now Lin Mo's heart is surrounded by even more suspicious clouds. He doesn't want to return to the mansion with the sorrow in his heart, so that Baili Qingcheng and the others will worry and worry.

The four horses and silver siches were driving aimlessly on the Zhuquetian Street. The streets were bustling with people, but Lin Mo in the car seemed to have entered, and the whole world seemed to have become the only oneself.

At this moment, Lin Mo's mind was very quiet, without a trace of chaos from the outside world, so quiet that Lin Mo could hear the beating of his heart.

At this moment, a very noisy sound came, interrupting Lin Mo's thoughts in a meditative state. When he came to his senses, Lin Mo asked, "Xifeng Qiuyun, what happened outside?"

"When I go back to the sect leader, someone is throwing balls and attracting brides, and many people are gathering together to grab them." Qiu Yun's voice came from outside the carriage.

"Quick, stop." Lin Moke had never seen it before. His curiosity instantly overshadowed his sorrow. He lifted the curtain and then got off the four horses and silver squares.

After coming to Zhongzhou mainland, Lin Mo stayed at home and studied the world's words and customs in the first three years. Later, his family was slaughtered, Lin Mo was rescued by the old man under the moon, and lived in seclusion on the mountain for more than a year.

After Lin Mo became a military leader, he went to Yan State in the northern part of the Dagan Empire for more than ten years. The people of Yan State were martial and competed for martial arts to attract marriages. This time, when he met the teleportation balls to attract marriages, Lin Mo naturally wanted to take a good look.

After getting off the car, Lin Mo was on the periphery and looked up and saw a woman in red clothes on the embroidery building, looking at the many men below, but the hydrangea in her hand was not left behind for a long time.

"This woman's skin is too white, as white as if she has no qi and blood." Seeing the woman's face clearly, Lin Mo sighed without hesitation.

As the saying goes, whiteness is bright and red, just like a few girls in a beautiful city, but the woman in gorgeous clothes on the embroidery building seemed to be sick, and was a kind of sick white.

"White, what's that white?" Lin Mo approached a young man in gorgeous clothes and heard Lin Mo's sigh: "The two wives of Duke Shan are white, both of whom are forty years old, and their skin is as white as white as paper."

"Oh." Listening to the words of the young people in the gorgeous clothes in front of him, Lin Mo asked: "Do they have any secret recipe? How could this skin be so white?"

"Why are you so annoying? I'm disturbing me to grab the hydrangea. I..." Hearing Lin Mo's repeated questions, the young man in the gorgeous clothes turned around impatiently and wanted to curse. When he saw Lin Mo's Shangqing Crown Clothing and the four horses behind him, he suddenly became silent.

The expression on the face of the young man in gorgeous clothes suddenly changed from impatient to flattery: "Sir Shangqing, it's a commoner who is rude. Please forgive me. That's right. In the imperial capital, there is a rumor that eating beauty juice can make a woman's skin whiter than snow."

Beauty juice is the milk of a woman during breastfeeding.

As soon as the young man in the gorgeous clothes said, Lin Mo was shocked in an instant and understood something. His depressed eyebrows also stretched out, and the suspicion in his heart was also opened.

The suspicion in his heart disappeared, and Lin Mo became happy. He pointed to the embroidery building and asked the young man in the China-style clothes, "Which girl is throwing hydrangea balls to attract kisses?"

The young man in the Chinese dress coughed and said, "When you say to Master Shangqing, this is not a girl from any family, but the girl from Zuishenglou has to choose a husband he likes to get rid of the fireworks."

Although the young man in the gorgeous clothes said it tactfully, Lin Mo also understood that the Zuisheng Building must be a brothel. The girl inside wanted to choose a favorite husband and become a good woman from now on.

Interestingly, all the girls in this brothel can throw hydrangeas openly and choose a good-faithed man. Lin Mo smiled faintly: "Why, do you dare to be interested?"

The man in the gorgeous clothes smiled and looked a little embarrassed: "Xiaomin is willing, but if he wants to marry the girl in the building, he has to redeem ten gold leaves. Although Xiaomin's family has some small products, he can't afford such a big deal. He just came to join in the fun, Xiaomin..."

The man in the gorgeous clothes was talking, and the girl's hydrangea ball was thrown out, and the hydrangea ball was thrown straight towards Lin Mo. Facing the flying hydrangea ball, Lin Mo smiled slightly, blocked it with his right hand, and the hydrangea ball fell directly into the arms of the young man in the gorgeous clothes.

"This..." Looking at the hydrangea in his arms, the young man in gorgeous clothes was stunned. Although he liked the girl, he did not have his junior sister Jin Ye to redeem her body.

The young man in the clothing was worried. Lin Mo took out a rectangular paper with a red mark from his arms and put it in the hands of the young man in the clothing, and instructed him, "With this flying money, you can go to any silver number and get fifty gold leaves."
