Chapter 247 Lifting the Black Veil
"We can help you."
As soon as Lin Baoer finished speaking, Jiang Yuzhi suddenly raised his head, his dim eyes suddenly lit up, full of hope.
"But it's probably a little late now." Lin Baoer frowned, "Aren't you getting married today? I don't know if it's too late."
Before Jiang Yuzhi could smile bitterly, another voice came from the side.
"It's still in time."
Lin Zhishen said calmly: "I have asked Si Gou to find someone. I think it won't be long before the concubine the county magistrate kept outside will make a big fuss in the county magistrate's mansion. He will also find out that his subordinates are partial to each other, selling land and property, and threatening him with the issue of private lending and tax."
"I'm afraid he has no time to take care of this marriage today."
Lin Baoer was surprised, "How could you..."
Lin Zhishen's expression softened, and there was a smile in his eyes, "Since you cared, I asked someone to investigate these things. Now it's just early preparations. If you don't help, this matter will explode after we leave. By then, it will become a big deal and be reported to the prefect. If it is used by someone with ulterior motives..."
Then it's hard to say whether the county magistrate can keep the black gauze hat.
Unexpectedly, the two of them thought of the same thing, and Lin Baoer's eyes also exploded with surprise.
"But the prefect seems to have some relationship with the county magistrate..." Lin Baoer muttered.
Hearing this, Lin Zhishen raised his eyebrows and joked, "So this is just what our fourth Miss Lin needs to do?"
Lin Baoer widened her eyes and pointed at him in disbelief, "You, you know?!"
Lin Zhishen was helpless and whispered in her ear, "Your acting is really poor. You escaped from the capital, your surname is Lin, you have three brothers, and you are familiar with the governor Ying. I think no one should not recognize you, right?"
"Besides... the name Lin Baoer, if you ask a little, everything will come out."
"The princess doesn't seem to intend to hide it."
The youngest princess of Taiping Kingdom, the fourth Miss Lin Baoer of the Lin family, as long as you ask a little, who doesn't know her?
Lin Baoer blushed and looked away with guilt.
Did she conceal the truth so carefully but it turned out to be so clumsy? !
"Then, then did you agree to go to Jiang Kingdom with me because I am..." She asked the question that concerned her most.
In fact, if Lin Zhishen answered yes, she would not think it was a big deal. After all, although her identity was popular in Taiping Kingdom, once she went to Jiang Kingdom, she would be nothing. Maybe she would still need Lin Zhishen to protect her then.
After all, looking at this man's appearance, it was obvious that he was either rich or noble, so he could be considered a backup.
She did not admit that this was a big factor in her agreement at the time.
Lin Zhishen looked at her gently, and his eyes slid down to the string of Buddhist beads on her right wrist. His eyes flickered for a moment, and he shook his head, "No."
"It's just because of you."
It's not about identity.
The pretty face opposite her was so close that Lin Baoer's heart skipped a beat. Her cheeks turned red. She looked away in a panic, her Adam's apple moved, and she swallowed. She
forced herself to calm down, "That's fine, otherwise I would have thought you were that kind of superficial person..."
Lin Zhishen smiled but said nothing.
Jiang Yuzhi, on the other side, just watched the two of them suddenly start whispering, which made her a little uneasy.
What's wrong? Is there another problem? Why does the lady look so flustered?
But before she could think too much, Lin Baoer coughed lightly, patted her chest and said, "Miss Jiang, don't worry, leave the rest to us, you just need to stay at home to delay time."
"Really?!" Jiang Yuzhi was surprised.
"Of course." Lin Baoer smiled.
Three days, only three days, she promised to let this dog county magistrate take his black gauze hat and get out of Weicheng.
Because of Jiang Yuzhi's matter, they had to return to the Lai Fu Inn and stay for another three days.
And afterwards, as Lin Zhishen said, the county magistrate's mansion was made a big fuss by the county magistrate's concubine who kept outside, and became the topic of conversation for the whole Weicheng.
At the same time, Lin Baoer wrote an urgent letter to Patrolman Qi who was in Qinzhou City, and brought the princess's token and the evidence of the unforgivable crimes committed by the County Magistrate of Weicheng, and let him make the decision.
The letter emphasized that the County Magistrate of Weicheng had bad morals and was unfit to be an official, and also said ambiguously that she had been bullied by him.
As long as Patrolman Qi was not stupid, he could make County Magistrate Wang take off his black veil hat by despising the princess.
But Lin Baoer didn't want to expose her presence here, so she asked him not to reveal his identity later, otherwise, with her identity as the princess, she would have been able to punish the dog County Magistrate personally.
The reason why she chose this Qi Xunfu instead of her brother who was far away in the capital was also because of this. In addition to the lack of time, she didn't want Lin Zhiyu and others to find out that she had secretly run to Weicheng.
But she never expected that her escape route had already been known by her three brothers.
In the Lin family far away in the capital, Lin Zhiyu came to Shangchunyuan with a letter just after finishing his court. Shen Xuelan, Chu Jingchen, Song Qingqing and others were also there.
"Zhiyu, you said you have news about your sister?" Shen Xuelan was worried and expectant, "Is she doing well?"
Lin Zhiyu snorted and handed the letter to them, "Not only is she doing well, she is almost destroying Weicheng."
"Weicheng?" The others were puzzled.
After they finished reading the letter, they were at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"This Bao'er." Chu was shocked and helpless, "Sure enough, she can cause a stir wherever she goes."
Shen Xuelan was relieved, but couldn't help but blame, "This child, is running around again, and this time she ran to Weicheng and caused such a big thing, I don't know what she wants to do."
"Mother." Song Qingqing chuckled, "Bao'er has always been an unrestrained person, don't we all know that? This capital can't hold her, and the Lin family can't hold her."
Shen Xuelan sighed.
"But, who is the person next to her?"
The letter also said that Lin Bao'er was with a man, inseparable.
Lin Zhiyi narrowed his eyes and snorted coldly, "No matter who it is, if he kidnapped Bao'er..."
Chu Jingchen and Song Qingqing covered their mouths and laughed, both sweating for the man.
Everyone knew that Lin Baoer was the treasure of the three brothers, and she was kidnapped by a man. The man must have suffered a lot.
Lin Zhishen, who was far away in Weicheng, sneezed inexplicably and pulled his clothes inexplicably.
Did he catch a cold?
Since last night, the county magistrate had his black gauze hat taken away and the county magistrate's mansion faded out of sight. Many people were very happy. The Jiang family was also freed from that cage, and they had successfully completed their mission.
And tomorrow, they will set off again.
At the moment, what Lin Zhishen is most worried about is the caravan.
I don't know if it's too late...
