Chapter Thirteen(1/2)

"I've met the lady later!"

In the meeting hall, Zhang Han and a group of guards knelt down respectfully.

"Everyone, please get up and immediately announce that Cao Jian has died of a serious illness. Mr. Qian sent someone alone to say hello. He said that Cao Jian was still talking about him before he died. By the way, let someone secretly send a message to Mrs. Qian tonight.

…”

"Miss, I searched the area as you ordered and found this waistband. I suspect it was left behind by the man in black who rescued Zhou Guang."

Lin Feiwan took the wooden belt. Apart from the peony relief, there was no other message, but at least it was a clue.

"Miss, Mother Zhang is awake."

"I know, I'll be there right away."

Lin Feiwan left the meeting hall, lifted the curtain and got into the car.

"Woooo..."

"Shh..., Mother Zhang, I already know that you helped Zhou Mei poison me and my mother."

She pointed outside and said in a voice that only two people could hear.

Seeing a row of Lin family troops standing outside, Zhang's mother suddenly turned pale and shook her head violently, begging for mercy.

"Woooo..."

Lin Feiwan pulled out the fabric from her mouth and said, "I can give you a chance to live."

"Old slave, I am willing to listen to the young lady's orders."

"If I asked you to identify Zhou Mei, would you dare?"

Mother Zhang looked startled, then gritted her teeth and said, "How dare you, old slave."

"You stay here for now, and I'll ask someone to pick you up when needed. Also... don't try to play any tricks."

Lin Feiwan glanced outside and said, "They are not as easy to talk to as me."

"Yes, yes, I understand."

Lin Feiwan signaled Dongqing to untie Zhang's mother, exchanged a few words with Commander Zhang, and then went to the teahouse to keep her appointment.

Pinxuan Tea House.

In the VIP private room on the third floor, Xue Qianyu stood in front of the window. The breeze blew and the white silk covering her phoenix eyes fluttered gracefully.

"Master, Miss Lin is downstairs."

He waved his hand to signal the visitor to get out, sat back in the wheelchair skillfully, and continued to "look" out the window, with an indifference on his angular face that could repel people thousands of miles away.

When Lin Feiwan entered the door, he saw this aloof back.

"My daughter Lin Feiwan has met the prince."

"sit."

Xue Qianyu turned around and opened her thin lips lightly.

"Are you investigating Lin Mi's case?"

"ah?"

Lin Feiwan's hand pouring tea shook, and the hot tea dyed the back of Xue Qianyu's hand red.

"My daughter made a mistake. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

His slender hands tightened slightly, and the red color was diluted a bit.

"Stop it now, I will have Qian Boren and that woman delivered to you, and they will be killed or chopped into pieces as you wish."

Lin Feiwan's brows trembled slightly, and the confusion about many puzzling things instantly cleared away.

"Your Majesty has long suspected the cause of my father's death? Were you the ones who sent the men in black during the vigil?"

"yes."

Xue Qianyu's face was calm, but she couldn't help but be surprised in her heart that Shen Yi had never done anything wrong, yet he would fall into her hands.

"Then the prince found out that the real culprit who killed my father was not Dangui or Qian Boren, but the one behind..."

"That's enough! I told you to stop here!"

Xue Qianyu's voice was cold and stern, frightening Zhuiyun who was guarding outside the door.

Lin Feiwan snorted coldly, her tone not giving in.

"The prince is afraid that his daughter will investigate. Is this related to the prince, or does the prince want to protect the murderer? My father was not wrapped in horse leather on the battlefield, but died in a conspiracy. If your royal family does not give you this justice, I can't fight for it myself.

You want me to give up, unless... I die!"

"If you have nothing else to do, Your Majesty, I will go back and say goodbye!"

"Wait a minute! If you insist on doing this, the things we agreed on before will be invalidated. If there is any difficulty in the Hou Mansion in the future, don't come to me again. Think about it yourself!"

Lin Feiwan clenched her fists and gritted her teeth. She never expected that Xue Qianyu was such a person in private. She was really blind before.

"My lord, do you really want to do something so extraordinary?"

Xue Qianyu controlled the wheelchair and turned around, leaving only her back.

For a long time, the room was so quiet that only the breathing of the two people could be heard.

Lin Feiwan was the first to break the silence, "Okay, but the prince does not need to worry about Qian Boren's affairs. I have my own plans."

"You will receive a message from the palace banquet after your filial piety period in three days, so you can take care of yourself."

Lin Feiwan snorted inwardly, made a cup of tea, and poured it over the spot where Xue Qianyu had just been burned.

"Hey, my lord, forgive me. I was just careless. I'm going to ask someone to deal with it for you."

"Deserve it!"

She ran down in one breath and glanced back at the room upstairs.

"Master, Miss Lin obviously misunderstood, and so did Miss Lin. Why are you so careless, your hands are so hot..."

Chaiyun chattered and talked about himself.

"Accidentally, ha."

Xue Qianyu seemed to have heard a joke, and there was a hint of coldness in the corners of her raised lips. She must have been too careless to pour the tea in one place so accurately and without wasting any time.

It's good that you dare to play such little girl tricks on him.

"Hey, that's the Marquis's carriage. Miss Lin hasn't gone far yet. Master, do you want me to go down and explain?"

"No, there is no need to explain in the future."

Zhuiyun raised his eyebrows, feeling like a young couple quarreling. Not to mention, since the last time, he felt that the two of them were becoming more and more compatible.



On the carriage, Lin Feiwan became angrier as she thought about it, feeling that she had never known Xue Qianyu.

"Miss, this is the carriage from Zhou Mansion."

"No, Uncle Li, hurry up. We must arrive at the Hou Mansion before Zhou Mansion's carriage."

"Sit tight, miss."

After a lot of twists and turns, the carriage stopped steadily at the Hou Mansion.

"Close the door. No one can be let in without my order!"

"Yes, miss!"

Having said that, Lin Feiwan still winked at Li Fang and asked him to watch from the side.

She took Dongqing all the way to Lily Courtyard where her mother lived. At this moment, the show should have begun.

"Madam, let me make the decision. I'm still waiting for Yue Yin to take the pot."

"My eighty-year-old mother is just waiting for Yue Yin to get medicine and see a doctor."

"How presumptuous! What kind of place are you in charge of? I just said that I would postpone the payment of moon silver, but I didn't say that I wouldn't give it to you. Why are you so anxious?"

"Auntie, it really doesn't hurt to stand and talk. We are all waiting for Yueyin to make a living. If you delay, you will cut off our livelihood. Madam, you have to make the decision for the old slaves."

In the corner, Lin Feiwan poked Dongqing's forehead.

"Well done. If Zhou Mei knew that you only spent twenty taels of silver to bribe them, she would probably be furious."

Dongqing stuck out her tongue in embarrassment, "Thank you, Miss. They have long been dissatisfied with Auntie's arbitrary deductions. This slave is just following the trend."

"Good push, let's go, it's our turn."

"If I keep trying, I'll sell you all out!"

"Hey, what made my aunt so angry? She just betrayed Mother Zhang this morning, and now she's going to betray her again. How about replacing all the people in the house and only choosing those who listen to my aunt?"

Lin Feiwan had an innocent smile on her face, but every word she spoke was thorny, which made Yu Qingyun frown.

Zhou Mei was already holding back a lot of anger, and now her face turned green, but she couldn't vent it out, and she was so angry that she felt so angry.
