"Sir, you're finally back." As soon as Mo Chen stepped over the threshold, Zhang Zili handed a skin as big as a palm to him. "This is what I found behind the plaque in the living room."

Mo Chen took the animal skin and sniffed it, rubbed his fingers on the skin. It seemed to be the old sheepskin. He spread out the sheepskin and revealed four lines of poetry inside, "They have their own spirits when they abandoned their articles and went to business, but they only seek wealth and honor. The descendants are full of children and grandchildren, and they are happy and smiling in their old age."

"From the handwriting, the person who wrote this poem should be Mr. Qian, right?" Zhang Zili said.

Mo Chen nodded. His handwriting was indeed the same as the font of Mr. Qian seen in the study. Judging from the content, the purpose of Mr. Qian's poem was to warn his children and grandchildren to do business well, and not to think about abandoning business and writing in the future and seeking a position in the officialdom. Thinking about this era, it is also true that the current situation is turbulent, and no one can say that the authorities will change the next day. Instead of surviving such an unstable political arena, it is better to go to business and make money steadily, and not lose a happy life.

However, Mo Chen felt a little strange. If this was simply a precept from the head of the family to his descendants, why would it be more suitable to hide it behind the plaque, frame it and hang it on the main hall?

"Does the poem have another meaning?" Meng Xinyao looked at Mo Chen with big eyes flashing.

Mr. Qian deliberately told him not to be in the officialdom. I guess there must be a reason for this. Mo Chen told everyone that he had just met Xu Yaohua and learned that the Qian family had an ulterior motive. Thinking of the poem he has obtained so far, it is impossible to say that the secret of the Qian family is that someone from the Qian family had been in the officialdom, and then something unexpected happened, which caused the Qian family to abandon their official positions and go to business. Mr. Qian left this warning.

Mo Chen handed the sheepskin to Zhang Zili for a while. In the evening, everyone went to the lobby on the first floor for dinner. Although they were simple to eat, they were much better than staying outside the theme and eating dry compressed biscuits. Sun's mother's body had been removed and was temporarily placed with Xiaomei's body. Considering that the girls were timid, Mo Chen arranged for them to live in the original boy's room, and he took Zhang Zili and Wang Lei to sleep in the girl's room.

Calculate the time, in the middle of the night, everyone dreamed of Duke Zhou, only Mo Chen put on his clothes and sneaked out of the room with a touch of darkness.

Go out of the side door and go straight to the main house of Qian's family along the corridor. Mo Chen is no stranger to this place. He quickly slipped into the main house and headed straight to the room of Master Qian on the third floor. Mo Chen knocked on the door lightly, and saw that there was darkness inside through the window paper and no one responded. Mo Chen tried to push it lightly, and the door was pushed open all of a sudden. It was obvious that the door was just hidden and not locked.

"Qian Tianlong..." Mo Chen called softly, but no one in the house answered. Mo Chen was surprised. Could it be that Qian Tianlong forgot his agreement with him and went to another place temporarily?

With a creaking sound, the door was suddenly opened from outside, and the oil lamp carried by the visitor immediately illuminated the room. Mo Chen's eyes were not able to adapt to the sudden light, and he heard the sound of plates shattering at the door. At the same time, a woman ran in with a wailing "Tianlong~~~" The visitor was Mrs. Qian. The plates at the door and the cakes scattered on the ground. It seemed that Mrs. Qian was here to deliver snacks to Qian Tianlong. Another middle-aged woman in her thirties stood at the door with an oil lamp, staring at Mo Chen in horror. Mrs. Qian's wailing sound seemed to wake her up. She suddenly dropped the oil lamp and ran downstairs while shouting hysterically, "I'm murdering~ I'm murdering~~~"

Just on the ground at Mo Chen's feet, Qian Tianlong was lying face down on the ground, with a sharp dagger inserted in his back, and Yin Hong's blood flowed along the wound to the floor, making it bloody red.

This sudden change made Mo Chen a little dazed. Mrs. Qian suddenly stood up and rushed towards Mo Chen, fisting and frowning, cursing angrily, "You give me my son back~~~"

"It's not me!" Mo Chen grabbed Mrs. Qian's hands tightly, trying to make her listen to her explanation calmly. At this time, Mrs. Qian was determined to be Mo Chen who killed Qian Tianlong and cried unyieldingly.

The rapid and chaotic footsteps ran towards here from the stairs. The woman who had just run away led Butler Xu, Ding Si and Zheng Yi back. The woman hid behind Ding Si, pointed at Mo Chen and said viciously, "It's him!" Judging from the woman's expression and behavior, she should be the wife of Ding Si who Mo Chen had never seen before. Ding Si glanced at Qian Tianlong lying on the ground, looked at Mo Chen again, and suddenly swung his fist and beat Mo Chen hard on the face. Mo Chen staggered to the ground. Then Ding Si rode on Mo Chen's waist, shook his arms and made a fierce attack.

Mo Chen blocked his arms in front of him and forced him to fight Ding Si's fist. Zheng Yi hurriedly approached and pulled Ding Si apart. Butler Xu bent down to check Qian Tianlong's body, and then helped Mrs. Qian, who was kneeling on the ground and howled, and comforted him in a low voice. Then Ding Si twisted Mo Chen's arms like a guard at the old yamen, and asked, "How to deal with him."

Xu Yaohua's eyes flashed with sympathy for Mo Chen, and he turned to a cold face and said, "Closing to the woodshed first and waiting for disposal."

"Let's go!" Ding Si pushed and shoved Mo Chen out of the room. When he wiped Zheng Yi, Mo Chen whispered to Zheng Yi, "Someone framed me."

"Go away! Don't talk nonsense!" Ding Si cursed.

Zheng Yi winked at Mo Chen, nodded with a serious expression, and watched Mo Chen be escorted away by Ding Si.

In the lobby on the first floor, Zhang Zili and others heard the noise of Ding Si’s wife just now, and they also followed him.

"Sir!" As soon as Mo Chen was escorted by Ding Si, everyone was also full of passion and immediately wanted to go forward to grab people. Mo Chen quickly stopped him, "The Qing Dynasty will be clear, you don't need to do this, go back and wait, I will be back soon!"

Ding Si snorted coldly from his nose and pushed Mo Chen out of the main room. Zhang Zili and others followed unwillingly. They watched Mo Chen, Ding Si pushed into the woodshed and locked the door.

"What do you think of it? Your gentleman killed our young master, kill someone to pay for his life, and wait for the officials to come up to deal with him! If you dare to make trouble, lock you up together!" There were too many people on the other side, and Ding Si was very puzzled, so he had to pretend to scold these students.

"Our gentleman was framed!" Chen Cen said.

Ding Si looked at her, his tone was slightly eased, and he said to her with explanation, "Nizi, the Qian family will not wrongly accuse a good person, let alone let a bad person go, don't worry! The matter will be investigated tomorrow. If Mr. Mo is wronged, he will be honest. Take your little classmate back quickly! You can't help here!"
