"Can you guarantee, Your Highness, that these scoundrels will do as you say and deal with the person behind the scenes?"
Xueying asked curiously again.
The main reason is that Lin Yuxin, as a princess, is too approachable and often treats her subordinates like friends. Therefore, Lin Yuxin doesn't feel awkward or offended when Xueying asks so many questions.
Xueying had gotten used to it; her master had no sense of self-awareness or pomp as a princess.
"That doesn't matter. I don't even need to guess who it is! Tell me, who did I offend today?"
Lin Yuxin spoke calmly.
"Princess Shuhe?"
Xueying also realized that although he was in the shadows today, he had seen things clearly. That Princess Shuhe was extremely willful and capricious, and she even dared to covet the Regent. She was incredibly audacious.
Lin Yuxin didn't say anything more, but just nodded, indicating that he was right.
She hadn't been in the capital for the past six months, and the first thing she did upon returning was offend Princess Shuhe. Who else could it be but her? And all for a man, she must have had nothing better to do.
What she didn't expect was that this woman was so impatient; less than an hour had passed, and she had already sent people to cause her trouble? Did she really think she was an easy target?
If those three people fail to get things done, she also has ways to make that woman behave.
A sharp glint flashed in Lin Yuxin's eyes as she thought of this.
Men who covet her always have to pay a price.
Afterwards, Lin Yuxin returned safely to the Zhao residence and saw that her three older brothers had all returned. Lin Yuxin exclaimed in surprise:
"Big brother, second brother, third brother! You're back?"
"Yes, you're back! You were out all day, are you tired?"
Lin Shaoyang greeted his sister with a smile when he saw her return.
"Not tired. I haven't been to the capital for half a year. The capital has changed a lot."
Lin Yuxin sat on a chair in the lobby and answered with a smile.
I was distracted by Xiao Hao's situation today and didn't get to visit Uncle Jin. I wonder how he's doing? But I can go check on him in a couple of days!
"You weren't hurt yesterday, were you? I heard you went to the palace too?"
The elder brother frowned and asked worriedly, "Yesterday, this girl arranged everything so clearly for us. We thought she would stay quietly at home, but before we knew it, she had entered the palace!"
What if something goes wrong? They're such a worry!
"No, I just hid behind the Emperor yesterday to help the Emperor and Empress with their medical examinations and detoxify them before coming back. It's nothing serious. Fighting is a man's business, not mine."
Lin Yuxin spoke casually, as if it were a trivial matter, which made her three older brothers secretly grit their teeth.
This girl has always been so bold; they're used to it, they're all used to it!
In the end, the three of them stopped talking about that topic and started chatting about everyday things.
"The situation was so urgent yesterday that I didn't even have time to ask when my second brother was coming back. I thought you wouldn't be back until after the New Year."
Lin Yuxin looked at Lin Shaoyang and asked curiously.
"I heard you were back. It's been a long time since I've seen you. I happened to be not far from the capital, so I rushed back. I plan to leave after the New Year."
Lin Shaoyang said with a smile.
The main reason he made a fortune was the pills and elixirs Lin Yuxin gave him before she left. Later, Lin Yuxin sent him the prescription directly, and he found a master pharmacist overnight to make the medicine for him.
He already had five Bai Xiang Lou restaurants, and now he's added seven more, bringing the total number of restaurants in the entire Xia Kingdom to seven in just six months!
The rate of expansion is extremely fast!
"Alright, before you leave, I'll give you some more pill formulas. Take them and study them; they're sure to sell like hotcakes!"
Lin Yuxin didn't stand on ceremony. She was happy that her second brother was making money, even though it wasn't for her.
"That's great! Hehehe!"
Lin Shaoyang immediately beamed with joy, thinking how wonderful his younger sister was!
The eldest and third brothers are simply unbearable to look at, and the second brother is truly obsessed with money.
Lin Yuxin asked about her older brother's wedding again; it would be in two months, very soon.
"My mother is already making preparations, but I'm in the military camp every day and don't know the specifics!"
When Lin Chenglie brought up marriage, he became incredibly shy, which made Lin Yuxin giggle.
Turning to look at his third brother, he hesitated for a moment before asking:
"Third brother, you've ruined your reputation! How are you going to get married now?"
Lin Yuxin was also helpless. When she heard that her third brother had used such an extreme method, she lost her temper.
They suffered heavy losses, inflicting 800 casualties on themselves and 1000 on the enemy, but gained no advantage whatsoever.
"It's alright. It's good that Third Brother can have some peace and quiet for a while. As for marriage? We'll talk about it after Second Brother gets married."
Lin Shixiao took it in stride. She thought, "They're just women. I've always thought women are a troublesome species, always crying and whining, and they're completely useless."
Lin Shixiao had already made up his mind that he would not get married unless absolutely necessary.
However, he wouldn't say this out loud, or his mother would beat him to death!
Lin Shaoyang: ...?
If you don't want to get married, then don't get married. Why are you dragging him into this? He doesn't even know where his future wife is; all he wants to do right now is make money!
Seeing her third brother like this, Lin Yuxin didn't say anything more! Although she hoped that her three brothers could live a happy life, she still hoped that they could live the life they wanted.
The four siblings chatted for a while longer, had lunch, and then the eldest brother went straight back to the military camp. When his second brother came to see him yesterday, the situation was urgent, so he told his superiors and left with his men. He had to go back today.
Third Brother also returned to the Ministry of Justice and rested for two days. The cases had piled up like a mountain.
Yesterday's events were so significant that our superiors gave us the day off. Now that things have calmed down in the palace, it would be unreasonable not to go back to work.
