Chapter 515 The Fourth Master of the Lin Family
King Huai'an comforted himself before going to sleep, but in the middle of the night, he was awakened by a sound of a fire. He jumped up, put on his slippers and ran out without even taking off his clothes.
When I walked out of the yard, I looked around and saw that there was a big fire in the warehouse. The fire was particularly conspicuous in the dark night.
There was flames shooting up into the sky and noise everywhere, so he ran over in a hurry.
When he saw people putting out the fire, he hurriedly pulled a servant over and asked, "What happened to the fire?"
Seeing it was Prince Huai'an, the servant trembled with fear. His hands trembled and the bucket he was holding fell to the ground. He knelt down and kowtowed, "Your Majesty, spare me! Your Majesty, spare me! I don't know how the fire started. I fell asleep and heard someone shouting, 'The fire broke out.' When I woke up, I found that the storehouse was already on fire."
King Huai'an slapped the servant to the ground, put his hands on his hips and watched the fire engulf the warehouse. He was furious.
The warehouse is full of flammable materials. How can such a huge fire be put out? Everything inside must have been burned.
Although those things are visible, they are still valuable, and they contain some commonly used items.
Who the hell set fire to his house? Or was it someone in the house who accidentally set it on fire?
King Huai'an's mind was in a mess and he couldn't calm down to think about anything.
Fortunately, this warehouse was not connected to other houses when it was built, otherwise the entire palace would have been burned down.
He angrily returned to the study and called the secret guards: "What happened to the warehouse burning? Didn't you see how it started burning?"
The secret guard said weakly, "Your Highness, we didn't see how the storehouse caught fire. Please forgive us, it's all our fault."
The secret guards immediately pleaded guilty. If they tried to make excuses, they would know King Huai'an's methods. When it came to punishing people, his methods made them live a life worse than death.
If they apologized directly, King Huai'an might be able to escape the disaster by chance because of their good attitude in admitting their guilt.
As expected, when King Huai'an saw the secret guard, he immediately admitted his mistake. His expression softened a bit, and he waved at the secret guard: "Stand up, and take your twenty lashes."
The secret guard was delighted to hear this, as twenty lashes of the cane were much better than the eighteen kinds of torture.
He dodged and ran away as if a dog was chasing him.
Prince Huai'an sat in the study, lost in thought. This evening's work must have been done by Murong Li.
He failed to burn his during the day, so he came to burn his at night?
Prince Huai'an was filled with hatred and the palace was heavily guarded, like a solid wall of steel. Even the imperial palace was inferior to his palace, but Murong Li's men came and went freely and set fire to his warehouse.
"Murong Li, just wait for me. One day, I will make you pay."
King Huai'an slammed his hammer on the desk and said with gritted teeth.
What happened tonight was indeed Murong's doing. That old bastard King Huai'an tried to plot against him again and again. Did he think he was a sick cat? He had to be punished so that he wouldn't act so recklessly.
But now is not the time to deal with him, otherwise, he would be wiped out like the Lin family.
If you want to destroy them, first make them crazy, then let them fall from the clouds to the mud, and then throw them into the eighteen levels of hell, and completely eradicate them and eliminate future troubles.
The next day, Su Yue woke up feeling relaxed. That was because she had practiced for half the night before and only slept for an hour. When she woke up, she did not look like she was half asleep, but felt refreshed.
Su Yue felt that she had fallen in love with cultivation.
After breakfast, Su Yue felt that there was nothing to do today, so she thought of going to the farm outside the city to take a look.
It should be time to harvest one crop of sweet potatoes. After this crop is harvested, we have to quickly grow sweet potato seedlings so that we can catch up with the transplanting.
In some places, sweet potato cuttings must be carried out according to the normal time.
She took Yueying out alone and asked the other two secret guards to continue keeping an eye on the four major families.
Plus a coachman, who is also a secret guard.
The carriage left the city gate and headed straight for Zhuangzi.
"Princess, there is murderous intent."
When the carriage had gone out of the city gate and walked for a few miles, Yueying immediately told Su Yue.
After saying that, he immediately became alert.
Su Yue nodded, lifted the curtain and looked out. There happened to be a small forest in front. She said to the driver, "Let's go to the small forest in front to rest and see who is so impatient to kill me."
This happened right under the nose of the capital. Who could be so desperate as to come here to die? She had to take a good look.
After hearing Su Yue's words, the coachman drove the carriage over and found a place to stop.
Before the carriage came to a complete stop, more than a dozen men in black jumped out and surrounded it.
"Princess Li is really bold, bringing these two people with her when she goes out."
While Su Yue was still in the carriage, she heard the low and sarcastic voice of a middle-aged man.
Su Yue lifted the curtain and calmly got off the carriage.
In front of the carriage, there was a middle-aged man in elegant clothes holding a sword, looking at her intently.
Su Yue was sure that she didn't know this person, but this person looked a bit similar to the head of the Lin family, so he should be from the Lin family.
Su Yue didn't know whether to say these people were bold or fearless, killing people so openly.
Are you sure you can kill her?
Wasn't there any evaluation when it came out?
She looked down on her like that. She said slowly, "I wonder who is the master of the Lin family? What is your intention in stopping me here?"
The moment Mr. Lin Si saw Su Yue, his eyes flickered. He never expected that Princess Li would be so stunningly beautiful and so young.
And someone actually guessed that he was from the Lin family.
And just by looking at her calm demeanor, Fourth Master Lin knew that the Princess Li in front of him was no ordinary character.
He narrowed his eyes and bowed to Su Yue: "Princess Li, please be kind. I am indeed from the Lin family. Fourth Master Lin, I am here today to invite the princess to visit the Lin family."
"oh?"
Su Yue raised her eyebrows, "Are you not here to kill me?"
Fourth Master Lin laughed. Princess Li was indeed very bold. Other girls would have been scared to death after seeing such a scene, but she was so calm and asked if they were here to kill her.
It was interesting. Fourth Master Lin suddenly became interested in Su Yue. He smiled and said, "Of course not. It would be a pity to kill such a stunning beauty as Princess Li. I came here to invite Princess Li to visit the Lin Mansion. I have no other intentions."
"You bold lunatic, stop using foul language in front of the princess. Watch out for your dog head."
When Yueying saw the greed in Lin Siye's eyes and the words he said, she instantly exploded, as if she was going to kill Lin Siye with one sword.
Su Yue stopped her and said with a half-smile, "Master Lin's way of entertaining guests is quite unique. This is the first time I've seen it. However, I have something important to do today, so I'm afraid I can't do what Master Lin wants. Master Lin, please go back. I'll pay you a personal visit instead."
