“To Your Majesty, the matter concerning the rice and grain today can be said to have arisen because of me, so I came.” Jiang Peihuan began.

“You mentioned you have evidence. What do you have here?”

“Your Majesty, this is the daughter from the third branch of the Lin family. She can confirm the truth of Lin Xingchen’s words.” Jiang Peihuan turned to Lin Mengxin beside her and said.

“Mengxin, who allowed you to come here?”

“Were you threatened by someone?”

As he uttered the last sentence, Lin Ruhai glaring intently at Jiang Peihuan. However, she seemed completely unconcerned by his gaze.

“Brother Xingchen?”

When Lin Mengxin first arrived, her eyes were filled with fear. When she kneeling beside Lin Xingchen, her eyes instantly welled up with tears, yet they sparkled with joy.

Lin Xingchen remained silent when he saw her, clenching his fists even tighter.

“Your Majesty, Brother Xingchen was originally the rightful heir of the Lin family. But he was too young at the time, so all the household matters were handed over to our great uncle.” After bowing to Emperor Qi Ming, Lin Mengxin began in a soft voice,

“As Brother Xingchen grew older, one by one, the people around him started to die, and eventually, Brother Xingchen disappeared as well.”

“Your Highness, it’s the Lin family betrayed Brother Xingchen. It was our family that seized everything that belonged to him. It was…”

“Lin Mengxin, watch your mouth!”

When Lin Ruhai heard Lin Mengxin’s words, his eyes were filled with viciousness. He rushed forward and kicked Lin Mengxin’s chest, causing her to spit out a mouthful of blood.

“Lin Ruhai, how dare you!”

Emperor Qi Ming’s eyes were filled with anger.

Xiao Nanye quickly stepped forward and tackled Lin Ruhai’s down to prevent him further harming Lin Mengxin.

Xiao Nanye pulled out his sword and aimed it at his neck.” How dare you be so impudent in front of me and my imperial brother? Do you believe that 1 will kill you now?!””

“Xin xin?”

Looking at the pale Lin Mengxin, Lin Xingchen went up to hold her in his arm.

“Brother Xingchen, you don’t know. After you left, there was no one to protect Xin xin anymore. I…”

“Miss Lin, don’t say anything. Stay still!”

Seeing that she has internal bleeding and every sentence she spoke caused her to cough blood, Jiang Peihuan quickly stopped her.

“Your Majesty, Miss Lin is seriously injured. Can you allow me to treat her here?”

“You know about medical?”

“I know a little.”

Jiang Peihuan did not want to expose her medical skills in the palace, but Lin Mengxin’s current situation was critical.

Lin Xingchen helped Jiang Peihuan to carry Lin Mengxin to a side for treatment.

After all, Lin Ruhai was a general survived many battlefields, while Lin Mengxin was only a normal thirteen years old girl.

Lin Ruhai was determined to kill Lin Mengxin directly, so he didn’t held back in that kick.

Examined her condition through her pulse, Jiang Peihuan’s eyes were filled with worry.

“Nanye, send someone to my courtyard and bring me the thousand-year-old ginseng you gave me. Yue Er knows where I have keep it.”

“Alright, I’ll get Han Feng to go.”

“Your Majesty, please allow me to go with Guard Han.”

Xiao Nanye nodded.

“Where’s Lin Ruhai?”

Jiang Peihuan looked at Xiao Nanye and asked softly when she was performing acupuncture on Lin Mengxin.

“There’s someone watching him, don’t worry.”

Hearing this, Jiang Peihuan was relieved.

Although Lin Ruhai was not the main culprit who harmed the Jiang family, he was still an accomplice.

Jiang Peihuan did not expect to find an opportunity this time.

Outside the palace.

Han Feng, looking at the figure ahead, couldn’t help but call out, “You’re running so fast, do you know where the eldest miss courtyard is?”

Han Feng’s speed was considered very fast among the marital art’s expert, today he has witnessed a speed upon his imagination displayed by Lin Xingchen. Han Feng finally understood what is true speed.

The two of them arrived outside the plum garden. Lin Xingchen was surprised by Han Feng’s action to enter the courtyard like a thief by climbing over the wall instead using the main entrance and the walk path.

“Who’s there?” Yue Er happened to be cleaning the courtyard at this hour.

“It’s me.”

“Guard Han, you again?”

“I’m here on the eldest miss orders to retrieve the thousand-year-old ginseng.”

“Alright, please wait a moment, 1’11 fetch it.”

“Be quick, the eldest miss is waiting.”

“Ok.”

Nodding, Yue Er quickly lifted her skirt and walked into the storeroom. Moments later, she came out with a black box and handed it to Han Feng.

“Thank you.” Han Feng said.

After thanking Yue Er, Han Feng and Lin Xingchen once again vaulted over the wall and left.

Watching their departing figures, Yue’er’s eyes were filled with helplessness.

Han Feng and Lin Xingchen, having left, headed directly towards the imperial palace.

Halfway there, Lin Xingchen abruptly snatched the box from Han Feng’s hands, saying, “You’re too slow. I’m going ahead.”

Han Feng was speechless after being criticized for his slowness.

In the Imperial Palace.

“What? How are you so fast? Where is Han Feng?”

Jiang Peihuan’s eyes were full of surprise.

Lin Xingchen did not speak. He just carefully handed the box in her hand to Jiang Peihuan.

Jiang Peihuan took the box from him and opened it.

She carefully cut off a piece of ginseng and stuffed it into Lin Mengxin’s mouth.

Jiang Peihuan’s performed the acupuncture again and again.

A moment later, Lin Mengxin opened her eyes.

“Don’t speak first, you are still under treatment.”

Upon hearing Jiang Peihuan’s words, Lin Mengxin looked at her gratefully and then did not make a sound.

“Help her up.”

“Yes.”

Lin Xingchen immediately stepped forward and helped Lin Mengxin up.

Jiang Peihuan walked to her back and continued with the acupuncture.

When Lin Mengxin’s back was covered with silver needles, she could not hold it in any longer and spat out a mouthful of blood.

“Alright, after spitting out this blood clot, you only need to pay attention to recuperating and you will be able to recover.”

“Thank you, Miss Jiang.”

“There’s no need to thank me. If it wasn’t for me bringing you here, you wouldn’t have suffered this much pain today.”

When she said this, there was a hint of guilt in Jiang Peihuan’s eyes, but when Lin Mengxin heard this, her eyes were full of anxiety.” Miss Jiang, please don’t say that.”

“I am very grateful that you brought me here.”

” I’m not favored in the residence. Even the maids can bully me. Brother Xingchen has always been protecting me. Now, 1 can finally protect him.” As she spoke, Lin Mengxin looked at Lin Xingchen.

“The entire Lin Mansion will probably treat me as an enemy!”

Jiang Peihuan had already told Lin Mengxin the outcome when she revealed the truth to the Emperor.

“It’s alright. As long as 1 can help Brother Xingchen, I’m willing to do anything.” Lin Mengxin smiled nonchalantly.

“I won’t let them bully you any longer starting now.” Lin Xingchen made his promise to protect her..
