of the village head. This made some elder families somewhat resentful, as they thought they could continue to exploit others just as before, relying on their status as elders."Hey, Li Mu, what are yo...Zhao Xingzhou followed the shadow, chasing it to the back of the manor and onto a small hill. The person disappeared.

He came to a halt. The servants here had only just been bought from the slave market, could there be a traitor among them

The lights along the row of servant quarters were all out. He went to check, but found no evidence. Turning back, he returned to Fang Jinxiu's courtyard. Xiaoyue said that Fang Jinxiu had already gone to sleep, so Zhao Xingzhou didn't stay long.

"Young Master Zhao, what was that black shadow just now"

"Yes, is it a human"

Xiaoyue was Fang Jinshi's confidante, so Zhao Xingzhou told her what he had guessed.

"Well, I suspect that a spy from someone else has infiltrated the new batch of servants we bought back. Everything in the manor has been normal these past few days, so this person hasn't had time to act yet."

"I think it was an accident that we ran into each other tonight."

"To avoid alarming the snake, I pretended to have lost it. Tomorrow, when the young mistress wakes up, you report this matter to her."

Xiaoyue nodded solemnly, this kind of important matter, of course, she had to report it to the madam.

Zhao Xingzhou finished speaking and was about to leave. Xiaoyue thought for a moment but didn't call him back.

In such a situation, Young Master Zhao could have personally told the young mistress. Perhaps the young mistress would slowly forgive him out of gratitude for his service.

If one isn't enough, make a few more. The mistress of the house is tough-mouthed but soft-hearted.

If it were truly because of the past that I harbored resentment against Young Master Zhao, I wouldn't have saved Miss Zhao Wu along with him.

Xiaoyue hesitated for a moment, but Zhao Xingzhou's figure had already disappeared.

Fang Jinshui was completely unaware of this. She slept soundly through the night and didn't learn about the black-clad intruders until the next day. Xiao Yue had expected the young mistress to be particularly surprised.

Even if you weren't surprised, this level of calmness is excessive.

"Madam, did you know about this a long time ago"

Xiaoyue had been by Fang Jinshu's side for a long time, after all, and she really guessed it right.

Fang Jinshi washed up perfectly and sipped a beauty-enhancing tea. She slowly sat down to eat breakfast.

"Hmm."

"When I brought those people back from the prison, I knew that there were spies planted among them."

"Our Jinxiu Mountain Villa is so popular now, it's hard not to attract envy, isn't it"

"There are too many people who want to take advantage of me. It's very normal for them to insert some spies into my Jinxiu Mountain Villa, isn't it"

Xiaoyue was very anxious when she heard this.

"Well then, well then, let's quickly find these spies and throw them out!"

"How can you still be so calm, Madam"

Fang Jinshi smiled.

"What's the rush, take it easy."

"Even if I were to expose and expel these spies right now, can you guarantee that the others who remain wouldn't be bought out for a high price"

"Unless we get rid of all the workers at our lodge, there will be no business."

She took a few bites of breakfast and noticed Xiaoyue suddenly fell silent. She raised her head to look at the little girl, whose eyebrows were furrowed so tightly they could kill a fly.

Is that all you're worried about

She put down her chopsticks.

"Well well, if I don't tell you my plans, are you going to die of anxiety today"

Xiao Yue couldn't understand her master. Everyone else had inserted spies under their eyelids. These people staying in the manor were quite dangerous. If she poisoned them, her masters would be in danger of losing their lives.

Can she not be anxious

"Madam, I'm afraid you are in danger. After all, the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. It's impossible to defend against everything."

Fang Jinshu raised an eyebrow and said, "Who said they were in the dark"

"That old fox Fu Shangyuan, do you really think he's a vegetarian"

"Those spies among them, he told me about them long ago. As for Chang He's arrangement, it was quite unexpected."

"Those few spies from other families were actually sent by him to the fields to do hard labor, leaving only two people who could access the inner courtyard."

"If I wasn't so certain Chang He didn't know about this, I'd think he'd seen the list Fu Shang Yuan gave me."

Xiaoyue, upon hearing the list of names, instantly felt relieved.

"If we know who they all are, it'll be easier for us to defend ourselves."

"Now you're not in a hurry, are you" Fang Jinshu laughed as she looked at her.

"It's nothing, just some pawns."

These people in the capital crammed into her manor for just one reason: to ruin her.

Those few who went into the fields to work, thought that by sprinkling some powder on the vegetable beds every day they could destroy her crops, how naive.

All these vegetables in Jinshi Mountain Villa are just a facade. She has stored enough food to feed the entire population of Beijing for three years in her own space.

To take her down That might be a bit difficult. days, someone from our three teams would take a rest""I'll gather these people who have been resting during the day and go up the mountain to look for someone."Zong Bai nodded, looking at Song Changh...
