Chapter 1007: The Scheme

"Eunuch, wait a moment," Ye Muyu called out to Eunuch Ren, drawing near and whispering something to him.

Eunuch Ren's eyes lit up, and after she finished speaking, his face beamed with a smile, "Good, let's go, accompany me to the front hall."

Soon, the two arrived at the archives storage of the county government.

The steward and sub-prefect, hearing that Eunuch Ren wanted to examine the county's past records on flood management, both felt their hearts skip a beat, and while one sent for County Magistrate Sun, they pretended to cooperate in unlocking the door.

"Eunuch, the key... I didn't bring the key..." the sub-prefect said with a face full of fear, looking at him, "This official will go fetch it immediately."

"Wait," Eunuch Ren spoke.

The sub-prefect subconsciously glanced at him, suddenly feeling a splash of water from behind, chilling him to the core.
