Chapter 72 Chapter 72 Chapter 72

Xie Lin's smile faltered slightly. He looked at Yinyu's expression for a long moment before confirming that what he said was true. Then he said with a wry smile, "Fifteenth Prince, you're joking. If you don't like it, I can find someone else for you."

He finally looked towards his two daughters. After a while, he still felt a little unsure.

These two daughters are the most beautiful among his four daughters. Is the Fifteenth Prince's standards so high? He doesn't even like this? So what kind of girl does he like?

Thinking of this, his brows unconsciously frowned and the smile on his face faded a lot.

Yin Yu raised his eyes and glanced at him, then said to him, "Forget it. I just don't want my father to arrange a marriage for me. My mother asks me to go to see a match every day. Otherwise, why would I come to this godforsaken place?"

As he spoke, he reached out, picked up a cup of tea, took a sip, and said to him impatiently, "I'm going to stay here for a while. I'll go back when my father doesn't want to marry me off anymore."

He continued, "Find me a yard that can't be connected to yours. It's best if it's next to the street so I can go out easily."

When Xie Lin heard what Yinyou said, he was suddenly struck by lightning. It was understandable that the Fifteenth Prince did not want to be granted a marriage by the Emperor, but looking at his impatient look, why did it feel like he didn't like women at all?

Thinking of this, his throat rolled and he swallowed nervously, then nodded to Yinyu and said, "Yes, I will prepare it right away."

Yinyou put down the teacup and glanced at Xie Lin, feeling somewhat confused. Now that the 679 system was in solitary confinement, he didn't even have anyone to discuss things with, and he felt quite uneasy.

Think twice before you speak or act.

But Xie Ling still gave him a very different feeling, making him feel as if his mind was thinking about something else.

He just couldn't figure out what he was thinking for a moment.

In the evening, Xie Lin led Yinyu to a secluded courtyard. He said to Yinyu, "Fifteenth Prince, I have followed your instructions and renovated this courtyard along the street. I have also added a gate on the street side."

As he spoke, he glanced at the door in the courtyard and continued to speak to Yinyu, "If the Fifteenth Prince doesn't want to keep this door open, just have someone seal it. We will definitely not disturb the Fifteenth Prince."

Yinyu listened to this, looked at the palace gate in front of him, then looked at the small door with wet cement, and said to Xie Lin: "It's okay to keep it. If anything happens, you can still leave from here."

When Xie Lin heard this, he kept wiping the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve. He nodded repeatedly to Yinyu and said, "Yes."

As night fell, Xue San tiptoed in from outside. He bowed slightly to Yinyu and said, "Master, I've done some research and found no connection between Xie Lin and Tsarist Russia, nor did I find any information about those people you killed on the road."

The dim candlelight flickered as Yinyu sat on a chair, slowly chewing a piece of pastry in his hand. His brows furrowed slightly as he asked, "Any news about Fifth Brother and the others?"

They had arrived so many days in advance, why was there still no news from Yinqi and the others? There were only so many roads to travel, so they should have met by then, right?

Thinking of this, he looked at Xue San and frowned unconsciously.

Xue San bowed to Yin Yu and said, "Zhang Si is already outside investigating this matter, and there is no news at the moment."

At this point, he hesitated to speak, "When I just came in from outside, I felt that the whole mansion was a little different."

Yin Yu raised his eyelids and glanced at Xue San. He asked, "What's the difference?"

Xue San was silent for a moment, then said to Yin Yu, "Master, I feel that this City Lord's Mansion is too shabby. I have seen many places both inside and outside the palace, but I have never seen a place as shabby as the City Lord's Mansion. Although the house is not open to the sky, it is almost as good as the sky."

“There are leaks in many places.”

"If that were the case, I wouldn't have suspected Xie Lin. But Xie Lin was very generous after he left. He rewarded his servants with silver and melon seeds. Although he didn't spend a fortune out of his wealth, he was generous and magnanimous, wearing gold and silver."

At this point, he said to Yinyu, "This servant feels that there is something wrong with Xie Lin."

Yinyou listened to Xue San's words, and his lips curled into a straight line. If the 679 system was still there, he would definitely be able to tell him what Xie Lin had done.

But now he has to use his own brain.

Just at this moment, he suddenly remembered the gold mine under the City Lord's Mansion!

Yinyu stood up from his chair and paced back and forth, looking a little anxious. Xie Lin was truly courageous, actually daring to steal his gold. He loved gold the most, and he had already taken possession of this gold mine before he even started mining?!

Thinking of this, he said to Xue San: "Xue San, go find my eldest brother now. Don't let him stay on the road. I suspect something has happened to my fifth brother and the others."

"They can think of everything we can think of. Xie Ling's money is not obtained in a legitimate way. This means that he has done something extraordinary. It is also possible that he has connections with Tsarist Russia."

"Have him take a detour to the City Lord's Mansion and deliver the food and fodder in small quantities. Have Zhang Si and the others investigate the whereabouts of my fifth brother and the others."

"There is absolutely no room for delay."

When Yinqi and his companions came out, they brought a lot of people with them. If there were so many people, nothing would have happened, but there was a reckless Yin'e.

If Yin'e really rushed around and took his men away from the main force, it is not impossible that they would be separated and encounter danger.

Thinking of this, he raised his hand and rubbed his swollen and painful brows. At this moment, he missed 679 especially.

If 679 was here, he wouldn't have to think about it himself. He could just watch the short video about Xie Lin. He could also find the location of Yin'e and the others based on the short video. If he had known that they were not here, he should have found them in advance.

Now that 679 is not here, it’s too late for him to say anything.

Xue San listened to Yin Yu's words and bowed slightly to him and said, "Yes."

After saying this, he walked outside like a ghost.

Little Orange looked at Yinyu's frown and said to him, "Master, don't worry. The Fifth Prince and his companions will surely be blessed by fate."

He didn't know what the Fifth Prince was doing, but he knew that his master was in a den of wolves. If something happened, he would not be able to escape.

His master's kung fu is not that good, what if something goes wrong?

As he thought about it, the expression on his face became anxious.

Yinyu took a deep breath and nodded to Xiao Chengzi, saying, "Well, now that Xie Lin doesn't know our trump card, we're relatively safe. He won't dare to attack us directly."

Xie Ling has extraordinary abilities to be able to stay in this position for such a long time.

He should continue to test their bottom line and purpose, and only take action against them after he understands everything.

Thinking of this, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he suddenly returned to normal. He raised his hand and stretched, turned and walked towards the bed. He sat on the bed, yawned, and said to Xiao Chengzi: "If there is anything, we can talk about it tomorrow. Now go to bed."

He hadn't slept well for several days. If he didn't sleep now, he would probably be killed or die of sleepiness.

After saying that, he didn't bother to wash up, just lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

Listening to Yinyou's snoring, Xiao Chengzi couldn't help but sigh. His master was so generous.

Even in such a situation, I can still sleep so soundly.

Here, Xie Lin was pacing back and forth in the room until his wife couldn't stand it anymore and said to him impatiently, "Husband, stop walking back and forth. It makes me dizzy."

As she spoke, she picked up a jade bracelet and gestured on her wrist. After gesturing, she picked up a gold bracelet and gestured for a long time before reluctantly putting the table in the box. She said to Xie Lingmaiyuan, "Husband, there are so many good things. When can I take them out openly?"

The box that Mrs. Schelling was holding was filled with either gold or jade bracelets, which jingled when placed together.

Each piece looks to be of great value.

Xie Lin glared at her and said anxiously, "Put it away quickly! If anyone sees it, especially the Fifteenth Prince, I will never forgive you!"

When Mrs. Xie Lin heard what Xie Lin said, she slightly frowned, looking unhappy: "I know, let alone the Fifteenth Prince, I have never let her see even our own daughter."

She complained a bit after she finished speaking, "We are rich and powerful. I really don't understand why my husband is so afraid? He doesn't even dare to spend the money in his hand? Then what is the point of this money?!"

When Xie Lin heard his wife's words, he glared at her and said unhappily, "What do you know? When my big plan is done, you can show off however you want. But you can't ruin my plan now."

Then he turned to his wife and asked, "You said the Fifteenth Prince doesn't want a woman, doesn't want to get married. Why does he have this idea? Is the Emperor pushing too hard, or does the Fifteenth Prince simply not want to get married?"

After he finished speaking, he paced back and forth, his hands crossed, looking anxious.

When Madam Xie Lin heard what he said, she said to him, "My dear, is it possible that the Fifteenth Prince simply doesn't like women?"

As she spoke, she analyzed the situation to Xie Lin: "If the Fifteenth Prince likes women, why doesn't he even look at our daughter?"

"The most important thing is that he himself said that he doesn't want to get married and doesn't want to be granted a marriage by the Emperor unless he has someone he likes, and it may not be a woman."

Xie Lin froze in place, staring at his wife in a daze. After a long while, he finally said, "So what do you say we should do?"

"What if he just likes women and simply doesn't want to get married?"

After hearing this, Mrs. Xie Lin stood up from her chair, took Xie Lin's hand, and said with a seductive look, "Husband, if you want to know, isn't it easy? Just send someone to test it."

"Isn't our third son's appearance comparable to that of a woman? Why don't we just let him go and try it and find out?"

Xie Lin listened to his wife's words and a bright smile suddenly appeared on his face. He said to his wife, "You are really my think tank. I will come to see you later."

After saying that, he raised his foot and walked outside.

In the middle of the night, the only sounds in the yard were the chirping of crickets and the singing of birds. The room was opened from the outside. Little Orange, who was sleeping soundly, opened his eyes drowsily. The moment he saw the person in front of him, he screamed, "Ah! Ghost!"

Yinyou was awakened by the scream. He suddenly sat up from the bed and looked at the person in front of him. For a long time, his vision was blurry and he could not see anything clearly.

Sun Qi pushed the door open from outside. He kicked the shadow standing in front of the bed away, pulled the knife out of the sheath in his hand, and looked at the figure in front of him vigilantly.

Little Orange quickly stood up and lit the candle.

The darkness in the room was immediately dispelled. Yinyou put his hands over his eyes and opened them after a long while. He looked at the person on the ground, and his face was almost distorted at a glance.

There was a man lying on the ground. He was wearing a red gauze and fell to the ground. The rouge and powder on his face kept falling off with his movements. At this moment, he suddenly had the urge to strangle Xie Ling to death.
