Chapter 165 The forces behind the Wang family(1/2)
The cold basement cell was dark and damp.
Wang Qin fell to the ground with disheveled hair. The brocade clothes on his body were already stained with dust and stains, and he lost half of his temperament as the son of Xunyang Prefect.
When he was caught by Lin Jiangnian, he was having an affair with the courtesan Piaoxiang in Liuxiang Tower, and he was as happy as a god. In the blink of an eye, he became a prisoner. He was roughly wrapped up and stuffed into a sack by Lin Jiangnian's guards.
Put it back on.
The guards under him were all old men who had served in the Linzhou Army, so how could they know what to do? Plus, they learned that Wang Qin almost killed His Highness, so they didn't have a good look towards him.
If Lin Jiangnian hadn't specially emphasized not to kill people, Wang Qin would probably be dead by now.
But even so, his treatment was not much better.
At this moment, Wang Qin in the cell saw Lin Jiangnian appearing in front of him again, and he could not hide the frightened look on his face.
He only met Lin Jiangnian once in the Prefect's Mansion, and he learned from his close aides that the man in front of him, who looked as fair as a scholar, was actually the legendary Prince Lin. This was completely different from what he had described before.
Wang Qin once met Lin Hengzhong. In his impression, Prince Lin was a dark-skinned, bearded man who looked like a wild beast. Who could have imagined that the son he gave birth to would be so handsome and handsome?
This inevitably made Wang Qin feel a little jealous.
Before that, he was jealous of Lin Jiangnian's engagement with the eldest princess. In his imagination, Lin Jiangnian should look similar to his father, an ordinary-looking or even ugly dandy... If the emperor hadn't granted him the marriage, how would he have done it?
Worthy of the eldest princess?
This fits well with everyone’s stereotype of people in wild places like Linzhou.
But who would have thought that Prince Lin was actually a man with a very good appearance and temperament? In this way, Wang Qin looked like a clown.
The fire of jealousy was raging. When he discovered Lin Jiangnian's existence in the secret room at the back of the mountain, Wang Qin was filled with fear and had the intention to kill.
So, everything fell into place!
Seal the secret room, poison the secret room, destroy the secret room...
In one go, the secrets about the Wang family and the Prince Lin were completely buried in the secret room.
I thought everything was settled!
Until yesterday, when Lin Jiangnian appeared in front of Wang Qin alive. Wang Qin was frightened, flustered, shocked, stunned... His head seemed to have been hit hard by something, and he was dizzy.
Lin Jiangnian, no, not dead?!
Desperation as if doomsday was coming suddenly surged into his heart. Before Wang Qin had time to think about what to do, he was caught by Lin Jiangnian.
"You, what on earth do you want to do?"
In the cell, Wang Qin stared at Lin Jiangnian who opened the cell door and stepped into the cell with a pale face, gritting his teeth: "Do you know, you, what are you doing?!"
"oh?"
Lin Jiangnian raised his eyebrows: "Then what do you think this prince is doing?"
Wang Qinqiang suppressed the fear in his heart, gritted his teeth and said solemnly: "If you dare to kidnap me, my father will not let you go."
Lin Jiangnian looked at Wang Qin who was still trying to threaten him even in this situation, and sneered: "How did your father know that it was me who kidnapped you?"
"Your father, I'm afraid one of my sons is dead now, right?"
Wang Qin's face became even more ugly.
yes!
His father and second uncle now believe that Lin Jiangnian is dead, but now that Lin Jiangnian is not dead, once this news gets out, it will definitely catch the Wang family off guard. What if...
No matter how stupid Wang Qin is, he still realizes the seriousness of the matter.
"You, what on earth do you want to do?!"
Wang Qin gritted his teeth and stared at Lin Jiangnian with a panicked look on his face: "I, I have no enmity with you, you, why do you..."
"No injustice or hatred?"
Lin Jiangnian glanced at him and said, "Are you fooling me into thinking that I am a fool?"
Wang Qin was shocked. He knew that Prince Lin was not easy to fool, but he decided that Lin Jiangnian had no evidence. He gritted his teeth and said, "I'm not familiar with you, and I've only met once. How could I harm you..."
"
"The secret room thing...has nothing to do with me at all!"
Listening to Wang Qin's righteous and quibbling words, Lin Jiangnian looked him up and down and said in surprise: "I can't tell, you have such a tough mouth!"
Wang Qin snorted coldly: "I know that you, Prince Lin, have a noble status, and our Wang family cannot afford to offend you, but don't bully others too much... I have no enmity with you. If you kidnap me, you really are not afraid of my father."
Are you filing a complaint with the court?"
Lin Jiangnian looked at him interestingly, nodded with a smile: "I'm afraid!"
Wang Qin was overjoyed: "Then why don't you let me go quickly?!"
"However, the premise is that your father has evidence!"
Lin Jiangnian smiled and said: "Your father has no evidence, how can he sue my son?"
"Who said no?!"
Wang Qin snorted: "I am the evidence!"
"you?"
Lin Jiangnian chuckled and said, "Then we'll have to wait until you get out alive."
"W-what do you mean?!"
Hearing this, Wang Qin immediately froze and raised his head to stare at Lin Jiangnian. When he saw Lin Jiangnian looking at him with a smile, although there was a smile on his face, for some reason, the smile seemed to have a hint of laughter.
Playful, a bit cold.
It's like... there is some kind of murderous intention.
Wang Qin's hands and feet suddenly became cold, and his face turned even paler: "You, you want to kill me?!"
Seeing that Lin Jiangnian didn't speak, the fear in Wang Qin's eyes became more obvious: "You, don't mess around, I, I'm warning you..."
Wang Qin subconsciously took two steps back, looking horrified.
Now that he is in the hands of Lin Jiangnian, if he really kills someone and silences him... then he will have no place to cry and regret.
"I, I am the son of Xunyang Prefect. I, my father has only one son. If you dare to kill me, you, you will definitely be miserable..."
"miserable?"
Lin Jiangnian was very interesting: "Tell me, what kind of cruel method can you use?"
Wang Qin's heart trembled. Did he really have this idea?
Wang Qin looked serious and warned: "I, if I die, the Wang family will not let you go, and my father will never be done with your Lin family... Even if you are the prince's son, my father will never give up. Once he falls out, it doesn't matter."
, it will not be of any benefit to your Lin family..."
"Also, the court will definitely not let you go...if I die, you, you will definitely suffer the same consequences..."
"I'm warning you, don't mess around!"
"..."
Wang Qin was obviously frightened.
In this basement, he called Tian Tian Ying, in case he really died here.
That’s such an injustice!
However, Lin Jiangnian still smiled: "Do you think this prince will care about this?"
Wang Qin's face became increasingly ugly: "What do you mean?"
"As we all know, my prince is an ignorant and ignorant playboy, and he is a scourge that has lasted for thousands of years... You must have heard of what my prince did in Linzhou, right?"
As Lin Jiangnian spoke, he stepped closer to Wang Qin and chuckled: "In everyone's eyes, no matter what I do, it is reasonable... let alone just killing you?"
"What does a little son of Xunyang Prefect mean to him?"
"Do you think you are nothing?!"
Lin Jiangnian's tone was very light, as if he was explaining an ordinary matter.
His expression was calm and his tone was relaxed.
But when these words fell into Wang Qin's ears, his face changed drastically, becoming frightened and angry!
Humiliation, shameless humiliation!
He is the dignified son of the Xunyang Prefect, and he is almost a sideways presence in Xunyang County. Growing up, who didn't call him "Young Master" and give him a little face?
I am used to being admired and treated as a superior person, but now, what does it mean to be humiliated?
Doesn’t he, the son of Governor Xunyang, count as something?
Why doesn't it count?
Wang Qin wanted to defend angrily, but when he spoke, seeing Lin Jiangnian's sneering look, the anger in his heart seemed to stop suddenly.
Instead, there was deep panic.
To be continued...
