Chapter 648 Leaving the Mansion to Invite Someone

Chapter 648 Leaving the Mansion to Invite Someone

The Lin residence was brightly lit, and servants and guards were all out in force. Lin Yue'e asked the old lady Lin, puzzled, "Grandmother, did you think I was lost?"

These people are probably all preparing to go out and look for her.

"snort."

Old Mrs. Lin snorted coldly. If she knew that Lin Yue'e was missing, she would not send anyone to look for her.

That brat sneaked out of the manor without telling anyone. When she was caught red-handed, she downplayed her actions. Just like Qin Shi, she was eloquent and persuasive.

"Your father was assassinated by Qin Nanyan."

It's all about how long you keep pretending.

Old Mrs. Lin patiently told Lin Yue'e, "While you were out of the manor, your father was assassinated, and that little slut Qin Nanyan escaped..."

Lin Yue'e was stunned. Was it really that exciting? If she had known it was this thrilling, she wouldn't have arranged to meet the young master of the Wei family. Instead, she would have stayed at home and watched the excitement.

"Father is dead?"

Lin Yue'e was even a little happy. Her father was dead and would go to the underworld to keep her mother company. This way, her mother wouldn't be lonely and could atone for her sins.

If she really kills someone, she'll have to thank her cousin.

"Die my ass! Your whole family is dead!"

Upon hearing this, Old Mrs. Lin launched into a tirade, uttering words without restraint.

"Grandmother, you are also Yue'e's family."

The whole family is dead, so why is Old Mrs. Lin still jumping around like this? She's such an eyesore!

"you……"

Grandma Lin was so angry she almost lost her balance. She roared, "You wretched child! Do you think I don't know what you've been doing out there? You've conspired with Qin Nanyan to be her ally..."

"Wait, Grandmother, please don't try to smear me."

Lin Yue'e's face immediately darkened. What did she mean by helping Qin Nanyan? So, Qin Nanyan's actions were being blamed on her?

"Then what can a little girl like you do going out so late?"

Old Mrs. Lin was furious and planned to have Lin Yue'e kidnapped, not wanting to hear any of her explanations.

"That's probably not a good idea. Even if you're willing, Her Majesty the Empress might not be."

Lin Yue'e shook her sleeves, showing no regard for Old Madam Lin.

Since no one in the Lin family could be trusted, she had long ago found another way and turned to her fiancé, the young master of the Wei family, as her backer. Today, she was going to visit the Wei family.

If nothing unexpected happens, the Empress will bring people into the palace tomorrow, and Lin Yue'e will not have to worry about Old Madam Lin's attitude.

Lin Yue'e couldn't escape the marriage arrangement with the Wei family in the end, but she no longer complained, simply because the Wei family had value to her.

Finding out the cause of Mother's death is impossible with the help of the Lin family. Who knows if the murderer is a member of the Lin family? Everyone is a suspect.

"What does this have to do with Her Majesty the Empress?"

Grandma Lin was surprised and uncertain, and quickly pressed for an answer.

"Please don't worry, you'll know tomorrow. Also, how is my father?"

Don't pin the blame on Qin Nanyan. She's not at the manor, she's at the Wei family home. If you don't believe me, just ask around.

Lin Yue'e stretched and walked past Old Madam Lin, heading straight for her own courtyard.

"You little hussy, just as arrogant as your vile mother!"

No matter how arrogant they are, in the end they'll just become fertilizer!

Old Madam Lin stared at Lin Yue'e's retreating figure and spat a few times. She then gave orders to send people to search the mansion and continue looking for Qin Nanyan and her servant.

Lin Yuesha had already left. She didn't want to ride a horse with Jia San, so she asked Jia San to take her to the Wucheng Military Command.

“Miss, this is the master’s wish, and I am afraid I cannot comply.”

Jia San gave a sly smile, completely unconvinced.

While Lin Yuesha was arguing with Jia San, a carriage from the Luo Prince's mansion passed by. A moment later, the carriage window opened, and the Luo Prince leaned out. Upon seeing Lin Yuesha, he smiled and said, "Little girl, it's been a long time!"

"Young Master Luo!"

Upon seeing Luo Wang, Lin Yuesha was overjoyed and immediately waved.

When Jia San saw the Prince of Luo, he was so frightened that he immediately knelt down and lowered his head.

"Today is Lord Lin's wedding day. Why aren't you staying at home? Why are you making a fuss about going out again?"

The Prince of Luo noticed something amiss, and with a hint of amusement in his eyes, he deliberately asked a question.

"this……"

Qin Nanyan nailed her scumbag father to the bed, a shameful thing that Lin Yuesha couldn't bring herself to say. She vaguely indicated that she was going to find Doctor Yan.

"Her estate is not far from the Prince's Mansion villa. I can give you a ride since it's on my way. Come on in."

Prince Luo invited Lin Yuesha to get into the carriage and go together, but Lin Yuesha hesitated for a moment and then said, "The carriage is too slow, let's ride horses instead."

"Lin girl, don't you have any sense? The horses pulling my carriage are Akhal-Teke horses, and there are two of them. Their speed is no slower than riding a horse."

A carriage is spacious and stable, which is much better than being blown around by the wind the whole way.

After Luo Wang finished speaking, Jia San agreed. He dared not challenge Luo Wang, and at most asked his master to hold on for another half an hour.

Lin Yuesha boarded the carriage and was surprised to find Xu Da there as well.

"Cousin, you didn't say anything just now, were you feeling guilty?"

Prince Luo and Xu Da were in the carriage, and the two of them were sure to be whispering to each other again.

Lin Yuesha revealed a mischievous smile, teasing Xu Da.

"I'm here to give you a surprise and help you shake off Lord Lin's entourage. Surprised? Unexpected?"

Xu Da poured Lin Yuesha a cup of tea and said, "It's not poisoned, drink it without worry."

"Startled".

Lin Yuesha finally understood where the rumors about Xu Da and Luo Wang's homosexuality came from. Neither of them got married, and they were inseparable all day long, so it was no wonder that others had the wrong idea.

A moment later, Prince Luo got into the carriage and immediately asked Lin Yuesha for gossip. On the night of Lin Shusheng's wedding, Lin Yuesha went to see Doctor Yan. Could it be that Qin Nanyan has some kind of illness?

"No, it's my father."

It is said that family scandals should not be aired in public, but Lin Shusheng was going to make a big fuss about it tomorrow, so Lin Yuesha did not try to hide anything and said, "Miss Qin stabbed my father, and he was too embarrassed to ask the imperial physician to come to his house, so he could only ask Sister Yan."

"Lord Lin failed to embrace the beauty, only to discover that she had transformed into a beautiful snake and bit him."

The Prince of Luo squinted as he drank his tea. Such a scene on his wedding night was enough to make for some juicy gossip.

"Your description is so apt."

Lin Yuesha awkwardly twitched her lips. With Luo Wang present, she and Xu Da exchanged a glance and did not continue their previous conversation.

"And what about Miss Qin?"

Qin Nanyan was once a mad pursuer of the Prince of Luo, who relentlessly chased after her. The Prince of Luo did not want Qin Nanyan to be captured like this.

"They escaped."

Lin Yuesha looked at Luo Wang and asked, "You're not meddling in other people's business, are you?"

"Escaped? That's good. If you were caught, I can offer my assistance."

The Prince of Luo smiled, not caring at all.

He and Xu Da were out so late because they were investigating a case. Recently, things had been unusual in the Taipingfang area. Someone had come to him to complain that there was a counterfeiting gang in Taipingfang that specialized in making fake antiques from previous dynasties and then selling them at high prices.

Lin Yuesha touched her nose guiltily. Could it be such a coincidence?

"Such a thing actually happened? Didn't the buyers notice the fakes?"

If you don't have a good eye, don't buy antiques; this industry is notoriously murky.
