Chapter 195: Conspiracy to rescue people and make money
The reason why some of the men in black were still hiding in the manor this time was because they were hoping for a lucky break. They didn't want to stay in the manor for a long time, they just wanted to rest temporarily.
He never expected that Huo Yuchen would surprise him.
At present, this is the only information we have.
Lin Pianran looked at the contents of the letter and did not say anything for a long time.
After a long while, she asked, "The refugees should all be attracted to the porridge stalls, right? Then the siege in Pingcheng should be over soon, right?"
"Indeed, judging by the current situation, it will take another three to five days for Pingcheng to completely relax. The emperor will definitely find a way to mobilize more troops from the surrounding areas to escort him back to the capital..."
"Yesterday, we received a secret letter from Pingcheng. The two thousand imperial guards led by Prince Chang and Prince Qi were almost completely wiped out..."
"The King of Qi has returned to Pingcheng, but he suffered some injuries, but they are not serious."
"On the contrary, Prince Chang is still unconscious. Not only is his body covered in wounds, but his kneecap has also been dug out. Even if he is rescued, he will only be a disabled person in the future."
"I heard that all this was done by a group of masked men in black."
After hearing this, Lin Pianran also looked solemn.
Who is behind such a cruel act?
Is the enemy targeting Prince Chang and Prince Qi? Or the royal family? Or all the princes?
So, who is his next target?
Could it be Huo Yuchen?
Thinking of this, Lin Pianran's heart suddenly sank, her heart tightened, and she was full of uneasiness.
She couldn't help but become worried, and said to Baili Qingyun, "Remind His Highness to be careful. I wonder if the person who hurt Prince Chang is from the Dark Moon Pavilion?"
"We don't know what the black-clad men's purpose is at the moment. Who are their targets? We must be careful and cautious. We must not fall into their trap."
"Now it seems that I still hope that Prince Chang can wake up as soon as possible. Maybe I can get some useful information from him."
He then looked at Baili Qingyun and asked expectantly, "Brother Baili, can you go to Pingcheng and save Prince Chang?"
"Letting Prince Chang wake up as soon as possible may be of great benefit to us in understanding the enemy in the dark."
After hearing this, Baili Qingyun agreed without hesitation, "Then I'll prepare in the afternoon and set off immediately. I'll also disguise myself and ensure a safe journey."
Lin Pianran was still a little worried and reminded, "Bring more people with you, be more alert on the road, and don't trust others easily."
"There are some bad guys among the refugees. Be careful. Don't be soft-hearted when you shouldn't be."
After all, as a doctor, it is easiest to feel compassion when seeing others get hurt, and medical ethics will take the bait immediately.
After finishing speaking, Lin Pianran took out another "Hundred Poison Pills" from the space, as well as a bottle of fever-reducing pills, which contained about twenty pills.
He took out another water bag and handed it to Baili Qingyun, "The spiritual spring water inside is what you need."
Baili Qingyun took them all with a smile.
Lin Pianran added cunningly, "You can save Prince Chang's life, but you can't ask for less than a penny of the money you're supposed to earn, and the more the better!"
"I haven't forgotten that Prince Chang and his mother and son once threatened the lives of Huo Yuchen and General Wei Zixing. This time, I can save his life, but the money I earned must be paid in full."
"Don't try too hard. As long as you can wake him up and keep him alive, don't worry about anything else."
Baili Qingyun said with a chuckle, "Great minds think alike. Don't worry! I will definitely be ruthless and extort a large sum of money from you. I won't let you earn a penny less."
"It will definitely make your wallet burst."
Then, he asked tentatively, "By the way, aren't you afraid that if you wake Prince Chang up, he will continue to attack Huo Yuchen?"
Lin Pianran looked confident. "He's already in such a miserable state, and he still has the energy to make trouble? If he dares to make trouble again, you and Huo Yuchen can each give him a few more stabs and finish him off directly. It will save a lot of trouble and we won't have to waste food anymore."
After hearing this, Baili Qingyun burst into laughter.
Sister Pianpian is so funny and cool!
In the afternoon, Lin Pianran and Han Yunxi packed their luggage and moved back to the Duke of Huguo's Mansion.
Baili Qingyun also brought a dozen secret guards and quietly set off for Pingcheng.
First, to save Prince Chang, and second, to curry favor with Emperor Wu of Qin on behalf of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Thirdly, we are also targeting those fat sheep, and we can get a lot of wool from them.
Sure enough, only he and Pianpian enjoyed the joy of taking advantage of others.
It also feels the best.
The Yong'en Marquis Mansion has also been thoroughly investigated.
After investigation and interrogation, it was confirmed that the Yong'en Marquis' Mansion had embezzled Han Yunxi's dowry and that Wang Chongyang had secretly kept a mistress and had two sons with her.
Since Wang Chongyang's illegitimate child is already over five years old, there is solid evidence that he was suspected of marriage fraud.
The old marquis and his wife were also imprisoned by the government, and even the two illegitimate children and the servants who took care of them were imprisoned.
Just wait until Marquis Yong'en and his wife and Wang Chongyang return to the capital, report to the emperor, and then issue an order to deal with it.
However, there is currently no relevant evidence for Han Yunxi's claims that Wang Chongyang colluded with bandits, set a trap to become his savior, and that the Yong'en Marquis' Mansion forged Han Yunxi's letters and repeatedly asked for money from the Huguo Duke's Mansion. Further evidence is needed.
The dowry recovered from the courtyard where the concubine lived accounted for 20% of Han Yunxi's dowry. The remaining more than 40,000 taels of silver were squandered by the concubine Feng Yulan and her two sons.
Lin Pianran asked Han Yunxi to register all the dowry, preparing to recover it all from the Yong'en Marquis Mansion in the future.
*****
At this time, in the second room of the Grand Tutor's Mansion, in a magnificent boudoir.
Gu Xiangsi was leaning sideways on an exquisite chaise longue, looking very lazy and relaxed.
A little maid was gently massaging her shoulders, and another maid was massaging her legs.
She seemed to be enjoying it very much.
Perhaps the massage was so comfortable that Gu Xiangsi closed her eyes slightly, like a sleeping beauty.
Her sleeping posture is dignified and graceful, like a flower quietly blooming.
She leaned sideways on the soft brocade couch, her black hair spread out like clouds, and even in her deep sleep, she could not wipe away the misty sorrow between her brows.
Her soft skin was as white as snow, as smooth as mutton-fat jade; her long eyelashes trembled gently, and her pink, lustrous lips were slightly parted...
Sleeping Beauty seems like a fairy from heaven, charming everyone.
Her beauty is intoxicating and makes people's hearts beat fast.
The maids standing around her couldn't help but secretly take a few more glances at her.
