The Village Girl Who Jinxes Her Husband Is Filthy Rich
Chapter 698 - 698 Investigation698 Investigation
When Lin Xujie finished his report, he said, ” master, we have found out that the people who were chasing after old master were the guards of the Zeng family from Zeng’s medicine shop!”
Lin yuelan’s face turned cold. After a moment of silence, she made a decision and said, ” guard Jie, inform manager Lin to come to Qingfeng city immediately after he has arranged everything in Lin’s medicine shop in Zhou Shan city!”
When Lin Xujie heard such an order, his cold expression immediately flashed with surprise. He said, ” master, what are you doing? ”
Lin yuelan nodded and said, ” that’s right! I want Lin’s medicine hall, which disappeared twenty years ago, to appear in front of everyone in Qingfeng city again. I want everyone to know that the Lin family has returned for revenge. I want the enemy who framed grandpa’s family twenty years ago to live in fear every day!
“I’ll make them pay for what they did to grandpa’s family 20 years ago!”
When Lin Xujie heard this, he couldn’t help but feel excited. He immediately replied, ” yes, master, I’ll do it right away!
Lin yuelan then ordered, ” the situation in Qingfeng city is still unclear. Transfer ten guards from the Lin family Village and tell Lin Xuling to train another group of guards. Remember, no matter what kind of person they are, my motto is loyalty and reliability!”
“Yes, master!”
Lin Xuling was the second-in-command of the guards. After Lin yuelan’s guidance and training, his martial arts improved by leaps and bounds. Lin yuelan arranged for him to be the head instructor of the Lin family guards.
Every day, they would secretly train the guards. After training a group of guards, they would be transferred outside. As for where they would be transferred to, only Lin yuelan and her three great guards: Lin Xujie, Lin Xuling, and Lin Qingsong would know.
After Lin Xujie received the order, he immediately went to execute it.
At this moment, Lin Qingsong reported, ” master, it seems that the third Prince, Yuwen Feiye, has his eyes on the old master!
Lin yuelan’s expression turned cold, ” Oh? Yuwen Feiye?”
Lin Qingsong nodded and replied, ” that’s right. Zhou Anping was reported for corruption and bribery, embezzling hundreds of taels of silver for disaster relief half a year ago. As such, the Emperor has ordered the third Prince, Yuwen Feiye, to investigate this matter on behalf of the Imperial envoy.”
Lin yuelan was very interested. “Oh, then why is it the third Prince, Yuwen Feiye, and not the Crown Prince, Yuwen Yuyu? ”
Lin Qingsong revealed what he had found out and said, ” Qingfeng city is the territory of the crown prince’s maternal uncle. In order to prevent the Crown Prince from having any selfish motives, His Majesty sent the third Prince, who is at odds with the Crown Prince!”
Lin yuelan said with understanding, ” it seems that being the Emperor is not simple. Every day, he has to work hard to balance the power of all parties.”
Lin Qingsong didn’t dare to speak.
“Continue!” Lin yuelan said indifferently.
Lin Qingsong continued, ” on the surface, the third Prince is investigating Zhou Anping’s corruption, but in reality, he is secretly looking for the milkvetch flower!”
“Milkvetch flower?” Lin yuelan frowned slightly and repeated, ” they are looking for the milkvetch flower?!”
Lin Qingsong nodded his head and replied, ” yes. Your subordinate heard that the third Prince is planning to present this to the old Emperor as a New Year gift for the Royal feast at the end of the year!”
“It seems like the milkvetch flower is the cause of the trouble!” Lin yuelan muttered.
When Lin Qingsong heard this, he was instantly stunned and curious. He didn’t understand. What did this have to do with the flower?
Lin Qingsong saw that Lin yuelan did not say anything, so he continued, ” four months ago, this flower was bought by the richest man in Qingfeng city, Li Fazhi, from the guangjuyuan auction house at a high price of 150000 Liang. Then, he gave it to Governor Zhou.
“When Yuwen Feiye heard about this, he wanted the milkvetch flower. However, he had searched the entire governor’s manor and could not find it. There was no result from interrogating Zhou Anping either.
“However, a few of Yuwen Feiye’s aides guessed that the flower might have been sent to the crown prince’s residence.
“Therefore, the third Prince and the others wanted to present an even more precious gift to the Emperor. They were reminded of the legend of the Lin family from twenty years ago.”
“The legend of the Lin family from twenty years ago?” Lin yuelan asked indifferently.
“That’s right.” Lin Qingsong said, ” legend has it that 20 years ago, the Lin family had two family heirlooms. One of them was Lin’s medicinal manual, which had been passed down for 100 years. This was the foundation of the Lin family’s 100-year standing. The second is a thousand-year-old ginseng.
“However, these two items have disappeared without a trace along with the disappearance of the Lin family’s eldest young master.”
