Chapter 279 Seal

Two days later, at night, Lu Qin's mother was asking about Daya Jiang Xuan's situation when there was a knock on the door. Ah Huang ran out happily and showed off his power through the door.

When Lu Qiniang was about to open the door, Xiao Yan had already stood up and left.

"Is it Old Hu?" Lu Qiniang said, "Maybe there's good news."

The result is not.

The person who came in was actually Lu Jin.

Moreover, Lu Jin was wearing casual clothes and had no one with him, which made him look very low-key and secretive.

"Second brother, why are you here?" Lu Qiniang asked in surprise, "You are a rare guest. Come, come, sit on the kang. Have you eaten?"

Lu Jin looked around the room and saw that only Yun Ting was not there, so he asked in a low voice, "Who knows about Skinny Monkey's affairs?"

"No one knows." Lu Qiniang said, "Didn't he just run into me and I handed him over to you? So, did he confess?"

"Does Yun Ting know?" Lu Jin asked again.

"I know—" Lu Qiniang regretted what she said. "Let me think about it. I forgot whether I mentioned it to him on purpose. Maybe I did, maybe I didn't."

As she spoke, she secretly observed Lu Jin's expression to decide what to say.

Lu Jin frowned, "Do you know or not?"

"Well, can I know, or can I not know, second brother?" Lu Qinniang said timidly.

Lu Jin was speechless and looked at Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan said: "You should know."

"Then call him over, I have something to say."

So, Yun Ting, who was practicing calligraphy in the house, was also called over by Erya.

"Zhuozhuo, don't use any conspiracy or tricks to hold me back. I want to study seriously... Commander Lu? Long time no see!" Yun Ting greeted Lu Jin.

Lu Jin asked, "Is everyone in the family here?"

"They're all here, even the dog." Lu Qin's mother said, "Second brother, if you have something to say, please tell me now. I'm so itchy inside."

"The matter of Shouhou is of great importance and cannot be mentioned to anyone else, otherwise it will be fatal." As he spoke, Lu Jin made a beheading gesture.

Lu Qinniang was shocked, then nodded repeatedly, "No, I promise not to tell you. Don't worry, second brother, we're keeping our mouths shut. I just want to ask, is there any progress in the case? Who is so despicable as to want to harm the emperor?"

Lu Jin said calmly: "Why, do you think my mouth is not tight?"

Lu Qiniang: "Can't tell?"

"cannot."

"Oh, never mind. Then can I ask, are we not involved anymore?"

"there is none left."

"That's good, that's good." Lu Qiniang was relieved. "It's okay as long as this matter is over. We still have to do business!"

While the shop is being renovated, Xiao Yan should also start teaching Xiong Da and the others how to do their work.

Commanding and dispatching this matter requires coordination and cooperation, and also requires contacting other people on the dock, such as the trackers and others. You must be familiar with the various forces and not offend those you should not offend...

This kind of "training" in all aspects will take some time.

"Just remember, there is no such person as Skinny Monkey. Keep all his words to yourself. Even if a knife is on your neck, you cannot utter a single word, otherwise you will die." Lu Jin said fiercely.

"Okay, okay."

Although Lu Qiniang agreed, Lu Jin still looked at Xiao Yan again, "You just need to know the truth about this matter, but you can't talk about it, and you can't make random guesses."

"Thank you, Commander Lu, for your reminder." Xiao Yan said, "Commander Lu, please be careful too."

The fact that Lu Jin came personally to silence him showed that the matter was of great importance.

In this matter, apart from his own family members, there were quite a few Jinyiwei on that day, including those who witnessed it, and Lu Jin should have to deal with it one by one.

Lu Jin finished speaking and left without staying any longer.

While Xiao Yan was out seeing him off, Lu Qin's mother sat by the kang and asked Daya, "Tell me, what is he talking about? I don't understand."

"Mother, Commander Lu is the emperor's confidant and works for him," Daya said. "His words are the emperor's will."

"Then the Emperor won't let anyone tell anyone?"

"Yes." Daya nodded, and then carefully instructed her two younger sisters, "Don't reveal a single word, even to your best friends. This is our family's life and property. Don't think that you can only tell your best friend, because she might leak it too. Remember, if you say anything that needs to be kept secret, don't blame others for spreading it."

If you can't keep a secret yourself, how can you ask others to keep a secret?

Erya nodded.

San Ya said, "Big sister, I'll remember this. I won't tell anyone, not even if I'm given candied haws to eat."

In fact, she didn't know what was going on.

Even if you ask her to speak, she won't be able to say anything.

Yun Ting touched his chin, thoughtfully.

Erya pushed him and said, "Why are you pretending to be so profound? You also have a role to play in what Big Sister said. You better shut up and don't go out and talk nonsense. If you harm my family, I will not let you go even if I become a ghost."

"I'm so powerful that even ghosts can't afford to offend you." Yun Ting rolled his eyes at her. "I was wondering, is this going to end like this with so much fanfare and so little action? Why is there still no result? Is it because it's not time yet? This doesn't feel right."

He couldn't tell what was wrong.

Logically speaking, on a day when everyone is celebrating, when such a big thing happened, after finding out the real culprit, an explanation should be given to the world.

Why do I feel like I should shut everyone up and let this matter go?

After Xiao Yan came back, he asked everyone to go to bed.

Lu Qiniang asked him what was going on again.

Xiao Yan said: "Perhaps the emperor has some backup plan."

"Oh, I understand." Lu Qiniang suddenly realized, "The emperor wants to pretend that this matter has passed, so that the real thieves can relax their vigilance and reveal their flaws. Maybe they don't know that the skinny monkey has been arrested yet, and they still think their plan is flawless, right?"

"Abandoned Mother, the word 'perfect' is extremely appropriate here." Xiao Yan praised.

Lu Qi Niang was happy. "I can use words now. Please teach me more later. I will learn a little bit every day, slowly crawling like a snail."

"Yeah." The topic changed and Lu Qiniang did not ask any more questions.

She didn't know that Xiao Yan tossed and turned all night, with countless thoughts swirling in his mind, giving him a headache.

The next morning, Xiao Yan drove Daya to Jiang's house again.

"Dad, you didn't sleep well last night?"

Daya used "也".

When Xiao Yan saw her with a layer of powder on her face in the morning, he vaguely guessed that she probably didn't sleep well and put on a layer of powder to cover up her complexion.

"Zhao Zhao, what do you think about this?"

Daya was in the carriage, expressing her guess in a very low voice.

The sound seemed to be cut into pieces by the sound of rolling wheels, and only Xiao Yan could catch a glimpse of it.
