Chapter 874 Yuwen Kun's Suspicion
Lin Yuesha unpacked the pouch multiple times before finally opening it. Inside was still a small slip of paper that read: "Five thousand copper coins."
Finally, there was a decent reward, but unfortunately, Lin Yuesha had already lost her chance to win the treasure.
Five thousand copper coins are good; that's five taels of silver.
"Young Madam, this is your prize."
The village chief beckoned, and two villagers appeared in front of Lin Yuesha carrying a box.
Open the box, and inside are strings of copper coins, one hundred coins per string, fifty strings in total, no more, no less.
"Was this Qi Heng's idea?"
No one else would have thought of such a treacherous scheme. Lin Yuesha looked at Qi Heng with a suspicious gaze.
To increase the success rate of his painting, Qi Heng buried small notes in two-thirds of the pit. He wanted to paint a picture of Lin Yuesha and make a beauty lamp, just to find a suitable opportunity.
The remaining bad ideas were suggested by the village chief and villagers; Qi Heng shouldn't be blamed.
However, when he tried to explain, Lin Yuesha wouldn't give him the chance.
Although carrying a large box of copper coins was quite heavy, Lin Yuesha returned home with a full load as a game reward.
Back at the guest courtyard of the city lord's mansion, Lin Yuesha discarded Qi Heng after he had served his purpose, leaving him with a cold shoulder. Tonight, she would be sleeping with Jiang Baozhu.
"Since you won the prize, let him create a painting."
Jiang Baozhu acted as a peacemaker; she had never seen such a way of getting along before.
The young couple, like her parents, lived a life of daily routines and treated each other with respect. However, Qi Heng and Lin Yuesha were clearly different; they used each other's tricks and their relationship became much closer.
Yes, what's so good about being respectful to each other? It's not about genuine closeness. Father has another family outside and has been deceiving Mother for many years.
"Sister Baozhu, you have a wound on your hand from saving me last time. Why don't you try the Jade Complexion Cream that the old man gave you?"
Lin Yuesha kept this matter in mind. Wuya had described it as something miraculous, but she didn't know if it was really that effective.
"good."
Jiang Baozhu readily agreed, applying only a thin layer, intending to conduct an experiment on Lin Yuesha.
If the medicine is effective, then Lin Yuesha's tattoo on her chest can be removed.
"No, this bottle is for you."
Lin Yuesha wasn't trying to get Jiang Baozhu to test it; she wanted the Jade Complexion Cream and was looking for other solutions.
“Why bother with formalities between us sisters? I understand what you mean, but I also understand that you need me more than I do.”
Jiang Baozhu held Lin Yuesha's hand; she would make the decision on this matter.
Lin Yuesha and Qi Heng are getting married, and they will eventually consummate their marriage. What would Qi Heng think if he saw the tattoo on Lin Yuesha's chest?
Even if Qi Heng didn't care, it still represented the mark of another man.
“I am not ashamed of this, but simply do not want to have anything to do with Yuwen Kun.”
Tattoos are common in modern times, and some people consider them beautiful. Lin Yuesha doesn't care about that, since she doesn't usually look down at them anyway, but seeing them makes her feel uncomfortable.
It's like a thorn growing in your heart; you want to pull it out, but you can't.
The two sisters finally managed to get together and chatted until midnight before going to sleep.
The next morning, Lin Yuesha woke up to Jiang Baozhu's exclamation.
"Wow, this is amazing!"
Jiang Baozhu raised her hand and waved it in front of Lin Yuesha's eyes, exclaiming in surprise, "Sister Yuesha, look!"
In just one night, a scab formed on the original scar site. Gently peeling off the outer skin immediately revealed the tender flesh underneath.
The newly grown tender flesh has a slight pinkish hue, but it's impossible to tell the difference without close inspection.
The Medicine King said that Jiang Baozhu's wound was not deep and was a new injury, so it would only take two days for her to fully recover.
"Here, take this whole bottle. Get the tattoo off your chest before the New Year."
Jiang Baozhu was adamant that this had to be removed, otherwise it would leave her with a worry for no reason.
"Sister Baozhu, I'll use it first, but I'll give it to you next time, and you can't refuse it then."
Lin Yuesha stopped being polite to Jiang Baozhu, which was also related to Yuwen Kun's visit to the alien race.
What if Miaoyin's secret is exposed, and Yuwen Kun finds out she's not dead and starts bothering her again? Lin Yuesha can't take it anymore and doesn't want to be with the great demon anymore.
Living in Helian's mansion, Lin Yuesha felt like she was about to have a mental breakdown, constantly fearing that she would say the wrong thing.
Qi Heng and Lin Yuesha went to Wucheng Village to celebrate with the villagers. The celebration was so grand that it couldn't be hidden from the alien spies lurking in Wucheng.
The scout was delivering a message to Jin Yuguan when he was captured by Yuwen Kun.
Yuwen Kun stormed into Helian Cheng's stronghold and bluntly asked, "Helian Cheng, shouldn't you give this city lord an explanation?"
Lin Yuesha was right beside him, she wasn't lost, so why was there another person next to Qi Heng?
Moreover, many villagers witnessed it firsthand, and it is impossible for Qi Heng to have someone impersonate him.
Helian Cheng was furious; he also wanted to know how Lin Yuesha hadn't died!
With his subordinates dispatched, Helian Cheng couldn't find anyone to consult and was complaining to Hanlu.
Because of the series of accidents that have happened in the manor, the chief is extremely dissatisfied with him. If he fails to perform his duties well, this huge manor will have to be given a new master.
"Lord Yuwen, please have a seat."
Faced with Yuwen Kun's questioning, Helian Cheng felt a little guilty, after all, he was the mastermind behind it all.
It didn't actually happen. Miaoyin is Lin Yuesha. If Lin Yuesha herself is still alive, it would be very troublesome for Helian Cheng.
What to do? We must think of a way to make Yuwen Kun believe that Miaoyin is real.
What puzzled Helian Cheng was that Yuwen Kun also seemed unable to distinguish between truth and falsehood; otherwise, Miaoyin, having been by Yuwen Kun's side for so long, would have been exposed long ago.
"Have some tea first."
Helian Cheng poured tea for Yuwen Kun, who gave him a meaningful look.
Both of them knew the truth about the previous incident involving their lovemaking, but Yuwen Kun didn't settle the score with Helian Cheng, letting the matter drop. Now that Helian Cheng was offering him tea again, Yuwen Kun, having learned his lesson, refused to accept it.
There was a moment of awkward silence, then Helian Cheng chuckled twice to break the tension and lighten the mood.
"There's something fishy about this."
Helian Cheng explained, "When our people captured Lin Yuesha, the Great Qi side didn't make a move. I thought there was a trap..."
Qi Heng, while in the army, praised Lin Yuesha as a living koi fish, and the young general's wife was deeply loved by the soldiers.
If Lin Yuesha is captured, it will inevitably cause instability in the army.
With the Lunar New Year approaching, rumors were spreading, leaving Qi Heng with no choice but to keep an imposter by his side. He would take the imposter out for walks, creating the illusion of a harmonious marriage.
"As far as I know, Yue Sha has no sisters."
Lin Yuesha only has one cousin, and she doesn't look like her at all.
As for Lin Yue'e, she looks like Qin Shi, with a mean-spirited face.
Yuwen Kun narrowed his eyes, a hint of doubt creeping in.
Having dealt with Qi Heng, he knew that Qi Heng was a cunning old fox and would not do anything without certainty.
Qi Heng made a high-profile appearance with Lin Yuesha; was it all a setup for him?
