Chapter 80: Take You to See the Official

Hu Yan kicked the most violent people to the ground in a few kicks. She stepped on a fat man with one foot and grabbed a thinner man's neck with the other hand. She lifted the man up and kicked him on the ground with her feet.

Lu Wanning looked at the broken windows and the newly-arranged decorations, narrowed her eyes, walked over to Hu Yan, and looked at the man she was pinching, "Why did you come here to cause trouble?"

The man grabbed her wrist and struggled to beg for mercy, "Yes, the owner of this house owed someone money, and we are just here to collect the debt."

Lu Wanning took a step forward and said, "Since the boss owed the debt, why don't you go to the former boss to ask for it?"

The person being stepped on yelled, "We are just following orders and doing things for money. We will go to whoever they tell us to go to."

Hearing this, Lu Wanning nodded, "Okay, in that case, today you either restore this place to me, or I will take you directly to see the officials."

"We're here to collect debts. We don't have any money!"

Shen Mo pursed his lips and whispered to Lu Wanning, "Debt collection is fake. The real reason is that this shop will affect other people's business. These people must be hired thugs. Even if they are really sent to see the authorities, they will be released soon and the matter will be forgotten."

Of course Lu Wanning knew, and she could even guess who the person who hired the job was.

Although Sang Mingyue's appearance changed, her body shape and skeleton remained unchanged.

Wei Xun knew that Sang Mingyue wanted to kill him, so he must have been looking for her.

Sang Mingyue had appeared in the capital many times since she rescued her. It was impossible for Wei Xun not to have heard of her. He might even have secretly seen Sang Mingyue.

After all, they were a couple who had slept in the same bed. Although her face had changed, Wei Xun must have recognized her based on her temperament, figure, and even her behavior.

It's just that now that she is in Prince Qi's mansion, Wei Xun really can't find any opportunity to take action. Otherwise, he would have eliminated Sang Mingyue long ago and rest assured.

And now Sang Mingyue wants to open the Treasure Pavilion. For Wei Xun, this is the first step to provoking and taking revenge on him.

Based on his understanding of Sang Mingyue, and her character of never giving up until she achieves her goal, if he really lets her stand up like this, who knows who will have the last laugh in the future.

However, it is obviously not possible to openly make things difficult for Sang Mingyue since this person is now under the name of Prince Qi's Mansion.

Then we can only do it secretly.

So even if he interrogated these people, he probably wouldn't get anything out of them. Wei Xun couldn't be stupid enough to go find these people in person.

So she waved to Hu Yan and said, "Close the door and watch them repair it. You can leave when they are done."

Hu Yan responded, "Yes."

Lu Wanning stood at the door and looked at the Wei family shop, which originally belonged to the Sang Mansion but had now been renamed by Wei Xun.

The road to revenge is indeed not an easy one.

Fortunately, Sang Mingyue is not here today, otherwise she would be very angry.

Together with Hu Yan, she watched these people repair the broken things that could be repaired. As for the things that could not be repaired, Hu Yan simply searched these people one by one, leaving nothing for them, no matter the small change in their pockets or the pitiful copper coins.

A group of people stared blankly in anger, not daring to speak.

Lu Wanning slowly blew on the scalding tea and took a sip. "If you have any complaints, go to Prince Qi's mansion and raise them. This amount of silver isn't even enough to compensate for one of my stools. I'm being kind and letting you go today. If it happens again, I'll send people to raid your house to make up for my losses."

What next time? There won’t be a next time.

They never took this job again.

A group of people stumbled away, and Shen Mo was speechless. "The Crown Prince's Consort's style of doing things is really unique."

Lu Wanning shrugged and stood up, "Master Shen, please be busy first. I still have some things to do, so I'll go back first."

When she was leading Hu Yan past Wei Xun's Wenqiufang, she suddenly looked up. Wei Xun, who was on the second floor, was caught off guard and had no time to look away, so he had to retreat in a hurry.

After stepping back, I felt that this move was too embarrassing, and inexplicably seemed to be afraid.

She pursed her lips tightly, looking very unhappy.

Fortunately, the servants came quickly and helped him dispel his anger.

"Sir, that Huichuntang—"

The servant was intimidated by his look and stopped talking suddenly. He shrank back in fear and didn't dare to speak for a while.

Wei Xun said coldly, "What did you call me?"

"Son-in-law," the servant finally reacted and said quickly, "No, it's Master, Master."

Master Sang is dead, and now almost everything in the Sang Mansion has fallen into the hands of Wei Xun. Sang Mingyue is now living a miserable life, so there is no such thing as son-in-law or not.

After a while, when he has driven away all the remaining stubborn and disobedient members of the Sang family, the Sang family will be able to completely change its name to Wei. From then on, no one will dare to mention the Sang family in front of him.

"Tell me, what happened to Huichuntang?"

"I heard that Doctor Lu from Huichun Hall is quite skilled. He held a free clinic a while ago and treated a little girl. It's said that the child was born with insufficient lungs and has been weak since birth, unable to even get out of bed."

"But after a few days of acupuncture by Doctor Lu, the child is now able to move freely."

Wei Xun narrowed his eyes but said nothing.

After a long while, he waved to the servant and said, "Alright, you can leave now."

Wei Xun had ill intentions on this side, and on the other side, just as Lu Wanning arrived at the mansion, the people that Qi Muchao had previously sent to Minxuan came back.

Perhaps Qi Muchao had specifically instructed her before leaving, so this person came to find her as soon as he came back.

He took out a booklet with pictures of Lu Wanning's button patterns and handed it to her, "Princess, this is a famous button pattern from Fujian that I found. Ordinary people don't pay much attention to these patterns, and most of them are among the nobles."

This coincides with Lu Wanning's idea.

Qin Linche had said before that the fabric of this buttonhole looked quite expensive and would not come from an ordinary family.

He flipped the booklet to the back, where a picture of a button exactly like the one in Lu Wanning's hand appeared. He said in a deep voice, "I followed the instructions and initially made no progress. However, I recently received a letter from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, asking me to find out if anyone from the Minxian royal family had visited Ming three years ago. I quickly found out."

"Three years ago, King Linchang of Fujian was hunted and assassinated and disappeared for a while. It is said that during that time, King Linchang hid in the Ming Kingdom and stayed there for half a year before returning to Fujian."

Lu Wanning pursed her lips tightly. "So where did he go during his time in Ming Country?"

"What I have learned so far is that there is someone in the capital who is familiar with Prince Linchang. Therefore, Prince Linchang should have been in our capital for the past six months."
