"What did you say?!" Lin Zong was furious and kicked his confidant to the ground, causing the veins on his neck to bulge.
The confidant ignored the pain in his body and quickly got up. "Today, when I was counting the number of dead soldiers, I found that a few people were missing. After checking, it was confirmed that it was Prince Yu who took them away."
What could Lu Zhichen do by taking his men away? Wasn't it because of Yang Wenyao, the son of Marquis Wenchang who was in the Supervisory Council?
Lin Zong and Lu Zhichen said that this matter needs to be considered in the long run. It is useless for them to have people in their hands. As long as Lu Zhichen does not take any action, there will be no more serious consequences.
But he didn't expect that the rebellious son would actually take action, and even use the Lin Mansion's assassins!
Originally, it was not a big deal if the assassins died or were captured, but the problem now was that Lu Zhixing, who knew the Lin Mansion very well, had rebelled. He would definitely help the prince or the emperor to pry open the mouths of those assassins!
Lin Zong's hands were shaking. It seemed that the Lin Mansion could not avoid this catastrophe!
"Let's go to the old master's yard first!" He rushed away with a gloomy face, and his confidant followed him crawling behind him.
When Lin Zong met Old Master Lin and told him about this matter, the old man immediately covered his chest and backed away.
"Dad!" Lin Zong quickly stood up and supported Old Master Lin.
"Rebellious son! Rebellious son!" Old Master Lin cursed continuously, then pushed Lin Zong away. "The death squad can't be mobilized without a token. Didn't I ask you to take that rebellious son's token?!"
Lin Zong was very helpless. "I did take it back. He only had his own guards left. There was no one else he could use. But after all, he had held the death squad token in his hand, so he made a fake one..."
Lin Zong was very clear about Lu Zhichen's character, but he did not expect that Lu Zhichen would be so bold.
Even if the Lin Mansion took over his power, everyone was in the same boat, and they would prosper together and suffer together. I didn't expect that Lu Zhichen couldn't even understand this.
"Then hurry up and remedy the situation! While Yang Wenyao and his assassins are still in the Supervisory Council—" Before Old Master Lin could finish his words, he was interrupted by his confidant who came in.
The confidant ignored the sullen expressions of Old Master Lin and Lin Zong and said, "Yu, Prince Yu wants to see you."
"Now that you've gotten into trouble, you come to us for help?" Old Master Lin took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and sat down with Lin Zong's support. "Let him in."
After Lu Zhichen came in, he knelt on the ground with a thud, "Grandpa, I know I was wrong. Please save me once!"
Although this matter is serious, if the Lin family resolutely cuts off its relationship with Lu Zhichen, the shaking will not be devastating.
"You forged a death squad token and rashly dispatched them to assassinate someone, only to be killed instead." Lin Zong snorted coldly, his tone filled with extreme contempt. "Lu Zhichen, do you think the Lin Mansion must have you?"
As soon as Lu Zhichen received the news that the assassins had been transferred to the Heavenly Prison, he knew that he had already stepped on the road to being abandoned, and he had no choice but to ask for help from the Lin Mansion.
After all, it is not an easy task for the Lin family to cultivate a new prince.
"Uncle, my nephew has Lin's blood in his veins after all. You can't just stand by and watch him die!" Lu Zhichen knelt and took two steps forward, without any trace of his former majesty.
"You only now realize that you have Lin's blood in your body? If not, how could you be so powerful today, and your appetite is getting bigger and bigger, and you want to threaten the Lin family?" The old man of the Lin family couldn't help but scold Lu Zhichen with a look of disdain.
The veins on Lu Zhichen's hands hanging by his side were bulging, and he was filled with resentment. If they didn't always think he was inferior to Lu Zhixing, why would he do such a thing?
The Lin family's immense wealth was so great, yet they refused to use it all for themselves, leaving themselves, as a prince, stretched to the limit. Otherwise, why would they have gone out to mine privately?!
But now he is powerless to save the situation, so he can only ask Lin Zong and this old immortal for help.
No matter how much he said now, it was useless. The Lin family couldn't just split up if they wanted to. Lin Zong snorted coldly and turned to ask Old Master Lin, "Father, should we let him lead his troops into the Overwatch Council and directly seize the person? A quick battle and a quick resolution will ensure that even if the emperor punishes him, the crime won't be any worse than it already is."
Old Master Lin scoffed at his son's idea. "Can you use your brain? The Censorate is under the Emperor's jurisdiction. You're leading troops to round up the criminals inside? Are you planning a rebellion?!"
"But..." Lin Zong was so angry that he felt dizzy. After hearing what Old Master Lin said, he immediately came to his senses and realized that he had made a stupid move.
Old Master Lin sighed and shook his head, "Why not you——"
Before he could finish his words, Lu Zhichen interrupted him, "Yang Wenyao and the assassins have been transferred to the Heavenly Prison."
"What did you say?!" Old Master Lin and Lin Zong were both shocked.
Logically speaking, the prince wouldn't act so quickly!
"You evil beast!" Old Master Lin was so angry that he wanted to go forward and kick Lu Zhichen twice, but his eyes went dark and he fell backwards.
"father!"
"Grandfather!"
The Lin Mansion was in an uproar, and everyone in the mansion was in action.
When Old Master Lin regained consciousness, a long time had passed. He opened his mouth with great effort, "Jong'er..."
"Dad, go ahead." Lin Zong hurried forward and put his ear close to Old Master Lin's ear.
"Carry me to Prince Jing's Mansion, now." Old Master Lin had difficulty speaking, but his mind was extremely clear.
Lin Zong was stunned for a moment, unable to understand what Old Master Lin meant. "Dad, if you want Prince Jing to come, we can just send someone to invite him."
"Do you think he will come to the Lin Mansion again?" Old Master Lin raised the child himself, and he knew Lu Zhixing's temper very well. At this critical juncture, he had no choice but to come in person.
Finally, under the strong request of Old Master Lin, Lin Zong had no choice but to lift Old Master Lin onto the carriage. Before leaving, he warned Lu Zhichen, "If you still have a brain, don't act rashly again!"
Looking at the carriage speeding away, Lu Zhichen's expression changed instantly. He changed his previous dejection and fear and sneered.
If he doesn't have a good life, the Lin family won't have an easy life either!
The Lin family's carriage galloped to Prince Jing's mansion, and Lin Zong directly asked the gatekeeper to open the side door and let the carriage in.
"Minister Lin, you can leave your carriage to us." The guards at the gate were all unfamiliar, and the leading guard solemnly rejected Lin Zong's request, "Horses are not allowed in Prince Jing's mansion."
It was the first time that Lin Zong had been treated harshly by a servant. He immediately flew into a rage and kicked him, "I think you don't know your place! Call out your prince!"
The leading guard was kicked by him and fell to his knees. "Minister Lin, please forgive me."
"I say, let your prince come out in person, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!"
