Chapter 406: Where are the dowries?



Chapter 406: Where are the dowries?

The village chief looked at Old Man Su, seeming to be hesitant to speak.

Xuanyuan Jin also looked at Old Man Su.

After all, if Old Man Su doesn't agree, he can't really take the things away.

The head of the Su family's eyes flashed, and he understood something.

Then, he looked at Xuanyuan Jin with gratitude.

Although he trusted the people in his village, there were many people with many different opinions and their minds were unpredictable, so there was no guarantee that no one would covet him.

What's more, this matter cannot be covered up and will definitely spread.

Now, Young Master Yang took the things over in front of everyone, which was equivalent to taking the danger over as well.

"Thank you, Young Master Yang." Old Man Su clasped his hands together and thanked him solemnly.

A trace of relief appeared on Xuanyuan Jin's face, and he nodded slightly, knowing that Old Man Su understood his intention.

"What do you want to eat? I'll ask Aunt Pang to make it and send it to you later." Xuanyuan Jin looked at Xiao Tangbao and said.

As for when he was in the mountains and asked Aunt Pang not to make delicious food for Xiao Tangbao, he said he had forgotten about it.

"I want to eat...the sweet and sour cold noodles made by Aunt Pang, and I also want to have an icy bowl." Little Tangbao thought for a moment and said with a smile.

"Yeah." Xuanyuan Jin nodded, "Just wait at home obediently."

"Oh." Little Tangbao nodded with a smile.

Xuanyuan Jin took a look at the well-behaved little girl, his eyes softened a lot, then he carried the small basket and walked into the gate.

Su Laosi looked down at the bamboo tube in the backpack, turned around, followed Doctor Wang into the mansion.

Xiao Tangbao looked at the back of his fourth brother, and then looked at Zhang Maiya.

Zhang Maiya's face was still pale, and a look of panic appeared on his face as he looked at Su Laosi's back.

Xiao Tangbao sighed and felt that he needed to talk to Sister Zhang.

Soon, Su Laosi came out of the mansion and returned to the Su family with a gloomy face.

Doctor Wang looked at Su Laosi's back, feeling somewhat puzzled.

Why does the fourth son of the Su family keep asking what medicine is in the bamboo tube?

Moreover, after knowing it, his expression became uncertain.

Doctor Wang shook his head, no longer considering Su Laosi, and hurried to chase Xuanyuan Jin.

In his heart, the thousand-year-old ginseng fruit and the golden jade leaf are the most important.

"Young Master, the thousand-year-old ginseng fruit and golden jade leaf are best kept in a cold jade box so that their medicinal properties can be best preserved." Doctor Wang caught up with Xuanyuan Jin and reminded him.

Xuanyuan Jin nodded to show that he understood.

"What are the effects of the thousand-year-old ginseng fruit and the golden jade leaf?" Xuanyuan Jin asked casually.

When Doctor Wang heard Xuanyuan Jin ask this, his eyes lit up and his face was full of excitement.

The emotions that he had been holding back all this time could finally be expressed!

"Master, these two things, especially the Ten Thousand Year Ginseng Fruit, are heaven-defying..."

Doctor Wang began to speak incessantly.

Xuanyuan Jin listened with frowns on his face, his expression becoming more and more solemn.

"So, these two things are only recorded in ancient books, and very few people know about them?" Xuanyuan Jin asked.

"Yes, young master, I'm afraid that some imperial doctors in the Imperial Medical Bureau don't know about the existence of the thousand-year-old ginseng fruit and the golden jade leaf." Doctor Wang said with some pride.

His master was from a school of miracle doctors, which had been passed down for thousands of years and had many ancient medical books.

After hearing what Doctor Wang said, Xuanyuan Jin directly ordered, "Since that's the case, you are not allowed to tell anyone else what you said today!"

Doctor Wang, "...Yes, Master!"

Doctor Wang thought about it for a moment and understood what Xuanyuan Jin meant.

After all, if someone has a treasure, they have to hide it.

It will not be publicized in a big way.

Especially a small family like the Su family.

Don't cause trouble in vain.

Although the young master has taken over this matter now, it still belongs to the Su family.

"No wonder so many people followed Fu Ya closely as soon as she went up the mountain." Wang Zhong sighed.

Although Wang Zhong did not follow Xuanyuan Jin up the mountain, he heard what Doctor Wang said.

I can't help but sigh again how blessed little Tangbao is.

Things like this, which are only recorded in ancient books, can be encountered easily.

It’s really enviable.

"Hmph! It's just because of human greed!" Xuanyuan Jin snorted coldly and said.

Doctor Wang, “…”

I touched my nose and felt that I was being implied.

Xuanyuan Jin waved his hand and Doctor Wang quickly retreated.

"Has there been any news from the capital?" Xuanyuan Jin asked.

When Wang Zhong heard Xuanyuan Jin ask this, a look of joy appeared on his face.

"Young Master, I just received news that the capital is in chaos." Wang Zhong said happily.

Xuanyuan Jin raised his eyebrows and looked at Wang Zhong.

Wang Zhong's eyes showed a hint of admiration as he continued, "Young Master's prediction was correct. After Lin Hong returned to Beijing, he really took action. He went directly to Shuntian Prefecture to sue his own daughter. Li Lisheng was also taught a lesson by our people and sent to the Shuntian Prefecture government office..."

Wang Zhong was beaming with joy as he recounted the story of Lin Hong suing Lin Wanyu.

Then, he continued, "The prefect of Shuntian Prefecture delivered the memorial directly to the emperor. Zhang Tiechi also impeached Minister Qiu. The emperor was furious and ordered Shuntian Prefecture to investigate Minister Qiu strictly."

"Now, all of Minister Qiu's faction has been implicated. The capital is in a state of panic and bloodshed. Officials are being raided and investigated every day."

Wang Zhong became more and more excited as he spoke. You know, Minister Qiu's faction has always been at odds with the Yang family.

Now that the Qiu family has fallen, the Yang family's power in the court has naturally grown.

"Young Master, to be honest, this matter is really thanks to that second daughter of the Lin family." Wang Zhong said with a hint of amusement, "If she hadn't wanted to take revenge on the Qiu family and produced evidence of Minister Qiu's clique, Minister Qiu would have been so powerful and well-established that it would have been difficult to bring him down."

"Those who do evil will eventually perish!" Xuanyuan Jin said coldly.

"Young master is right." Wang Zhong nodded repeatedly.

"Did Lin Hong get back Tang Bao's mother's dowry?" Xuanyuan Jin asked.

Wang Zhong was stunned for a moment, as if he had not expected his young master to ask such a question.

However, I soon understood.

Young Master asked this because of Tang Bao.

"Master, it is said that the items in Lin Wanyu's dowry that were used to win over the court officials by the Qiu family have been confiscated and taken away from her house...to the Imperial Household Department."

Wang Zhong's voice trailed off at the end of his speech.

Once something enters the Imperial Household Department, the Emperor has the final say.

After all, although those things were sent out from the Qiu family, they have now become evidence of crime.

After being registered, they were all confiscated.

Unless the emperor gives it to him as a reward, it would be impossible for Lin Hong to get it back.

Xuanyuan Jin's face turned cold after hearing what Wang Zhong said.

"Hmph! Won't it be hot to hold other people's things?" Xuanyuan Jin said coldly.

Wang Zhong shrank back and didn't dare to respond.

There's no way, the young master's words are clearly referring to the emperor.

However, Wang Zhong rolled his eyes and thought to himself: Since this case has alarmed the emperor, the emperor must have known that the daughter of the late Duke of England is still alive.

Then, considering the importance the Emperor holds the late Duke of England in, perhaps he will provide some kind of care or compensation to Tang Bao's mother...
