Chapter 449 The raid on the house led to the unlucky encounter with Lin Luodan.

"Princess Changping, the ever-victorious general..." Just as Lin Luoxi and Xie Hanchuan led their men to arrest all the corrupt officials in Yancheng and were ransacking their homes, they encountered Huangjiang Kingdom again.

"What do you want?" Lin Luoxi looked at Huang Jiangguo impatiently. In Lin Luoxi's impression, Huang Jiangguo was a glutton.

"My father and I heard about the commotion you caused in Yancheng, so we came here specifically to help you..." Huang Jiangguo felt that Lin Luoxi seemed to dislike him.

"Oh, assist?" Lin Luoxi looked Huang Jiangguo up and down. He was strong, but he would pant after walking three steps, so she was very skeptical of what he said.

"Don't underestimate me. I know where Li Da Kui hid a batch of smuggled salt." Huang Jiangguo felt that his internal organs were laid bare before Lin Luo Xi's gaze after being scanned by her.

Not to mention those little thoughts, they could only grit their teeth and bear it.

"That batch of smuggled salt, could it be that Li Daikui snatched it from your father?!"

Merchants don't get up early for nothing. If it weren't for the interests of the Huang family being affected, given Huang Zhiyong's cunning nature, how could he possibly let his son get involved in this mess?

According to her investigation, the Huang family was in the salt trade. Thinking of this, Lin Luoxi squinted at Huang Jiangguo.

“Princess Changping, we have the Emperor’s permission to sell smuggled salt…” Huang Jiangguo saw that Lin Luoxi was suspicious and was afraid that she would investigate the Huang family if she turned around. He quickly stepped forward and whispered to Lin Luoxi.

"So that's how it is!" she exclaimed. So that's why Xiao Jingchen, who always makes empty promises, led them down this path.

"Let's go!" Since it was Xiao Jingchen's idea, she didn't bother to delve into the details and let Huang Jiangguo lead the way.

She sent Xie Hanchuan to search Wang Lanshan's house, while she went with Huang Jiangguo to a villa outside the city.

"This house belongs to Li Da Kui's mistress, but the cellar inside is full of stolen goods." Huang Jiang Guo said indignantly as he stood at the entrance of the courtyard, clearly indicating that they had been double-crossed by Li Da Kui.

"Break down the door..." Since Li Daikui has been arrested, and this villa is under his name, it should naturally be confiscated.

"Yes, sir!" The soldiers behind him had already gained some experience with ramming doors.

They found a large log from somewhere and started banging it against the gate of the villa.

"Who is it! Do you have a death wish? Don't you know who our master is? You've got some nerve..."

The gate was slammed shut with a loud bang, and the people in the yard couldn't pretend they hadn't heard it. Seeing the rickety gate, they immediately shouted from inside.

None of the people outside answered him; they continued banging on the door.

"Thump!"

"Ouch!"

The soldiers worked together, carrying logs and ramming them against the door until the rickety gate collapsed.

The man who was about to come in and open the door was pinned down by the knocked-down door and could only groan in pain.

"Xiao Zhu, are you alright?!" An old woman saw the person trapped under the door and was so frightened that she dropped the winnowing basket she was holding and ran over.

She tried to lift the door that was pressing down on the man so he could climb out, but the door was too heavy. She gritted her teeth and strained, her face contorted with rage, but she couldn't lift the heavy wooden door.

"Damn it, are you trying to murder me?" The heavy wooden door couldn't lift its neck, so it could only angrily shout at the people outside.

"Sizzle!" The soldiers, seeing that the old woman dared to curse them, drew their swords, their faces stern, and looked at her.

"Oh dear, madam, madam, something terrible has happened..." The monkey saw the soldier draw his knife and ran back to the house in a panic.

"Go in and search!" Lin Luoxi saw that the old woman had run away and immediately ordered the soldiers to go in and search.

"What do you want? Do you know whose property this is? How dare you search his yard..." A voice that was all too familiar came from inside the courtyard.

Upon hearing the familiar voice, Lin Luoxi raised an eyebrow, crossed her arms, and stood still, waiting for the owner of the voice to appear.

"Long time no see, my cousin..." Lin Luoxi greeted Lin Luodan in a good mood when she saw the woman dressed in gold satin and adorned with pearls and hairpins.

"Lin Luoxi, are you sick? I've already come all the way here to hide, and you still want to go against me."

Knowing that the person who led the search of his yard was Lin Luoxi, Lin Luodan could no longer control his emotions and started cursing at Lin Luoxi.

"Oh, you're as foolish as ever. You think you're so stupid that I'd go to such lengths to target you..."

"You chose this man yourself. If he's a bad person, how can you blame me?"

"Corruption, embezzlement, oppression of the people, and smuggling of cigarettes... these crimes alone are enough to send you, who is associated with him, to Lingnan for reform through labor..."

With each word Lin Luoxi spoke, Lin Luodan's face turned deathly pale, staring at Lin Luoxi in disbelief.

"You're talking nonsense. You're clearly just jealous that I'm doing better than you now..." Lin Luodan refused to accept reality.

"Believe it or not, get out of our way and don't interfere with our official duties..."

Lin Luoxi was too lazy to watch Lin Luodan go crazy, so she pushed her aside and led the soldiers inside to search.

“Madam…” The old woman looked at Lin Luodan in fear as she saw Lin Luoxi leading soldiers and searching the courtyard with menacing expressions.

"Go!!" Lin Luodan knew Lin Luoxi's methods; if she didn't leave, she would probably be caught and taken back.

"Huh?" The old woman thought Lin Luodan would beg the princess to spare their lives, but their lady was like a rat, trying to escape.

"Take it or leave it!" Over the years, she had saved up quite a bit of money, enough to live comfortably for the rest of her life as long as she didn't squander it.

Thinking of this, Lin Luodan covered the hairpin on her head and quickly ran away.

"Princess, that woman has run away!" The soldiers outside saw Lin Luodan run away, so they sent a few men to chase after her, while one man went to report to Lin Luoxi.

"It's alright, they ran away, so be it."

"Princess, that woman is not simple..." Huang Jiangguo, who was standing beside Lin Luoxi, immediately reminded her when he saw that Lin Luoxi was going to let Lin Luodan go.

"Okay, bring her back immediately." Lin Luoxi glanced at Huang Jiangguo, somewhat incredulous, but if Lin Luodan really had blood on her hands, she wouldn't let her go.

"Yes, sir!!" Upon receiving Lin Luoxi's order, the soldier immediately jogged out.

Before long, they brought Lin Luodan back, who was twisting and struggling violently.

"Lin Luoxi, you bitch, you actually used your position to settle a personal score! Let me tell you, I will definitely expose all your shameful deeds..."

"Smack!"

Lin Luodan was captured and brought back. Determined to fight to the death, he launched into a tirade against Lin Luoxi, only to be slapped hard by a soldier next to him, dislocating his jaw and rendering him unable to continue cursing.

"Hmm, well done..."
