Chapter 86 Conspiracy
"Dad, what should we do now? We can't send anyone to follow Jiang Cheng's people?" Lin Mobai frowned, "Not to mention that the missions they are carrying out are confidential. Even the people sent out, there are at least hundreds of people. How can we identify which ones are colluding with pirates?" "
And once the third prince finds out about something, he will definitely investigate secretly and act cautiously. What if he finds out that it is related to us..."
His worry was not unreasonable, and it made the matter even more anxious.
"It's okay." Lin Zhiyu murmured, "When I tell the prince about this matter secretly, he will send someone there, and we can just monitor it secretly."
"However, they have been preparing for this for many years. Even if Jiang Cheng's way is blocked by us, I think there should be other ways."
"I remember that Jiang Chengsulai is on good terms with Chang Zaifeng, and Chang Zaifeng is under Fu Rui. Chang Zaifeng escaped after the incident in the Prime Minister's Mansion. He must be cautious now. Maybe we can start with him."
Lin Qiming nodded, "Zhiyu is right, but you have to go, Mobai, so that the news won't leak out."
"Didn't Baoer mention a person named Hua Wen before? She is a confidant of the third prince. She can also investigate and maybe she can dig out something from her."
"They definitely don't know that we know about this matter and have made arrangements early. It is inevitable that there will be loopholes in their actions. We must take this opportunity to survive this crisis!"
At this time, in the Third Prince's Mansion.
Study.
Song Chu looked at the messy desk with a gloomy face and kicked the person next to him fiercely.
"Waste! Didn't you say you saw Lin Mobai?! Then why doesn't he have any wounds today?"
The guard got up tremblingly and continued to kneel, afraid to lower his head, his voice trembling: "Reporting to the Third Prince, I did see the corner of the Second Young Master Lin's clothes flashing by at that time, I was not mistaken! The tangerine flower pattern is indeed unique to his clothes! I saw it clearly!"
"But I don't know... I don't know why he has no wounds..."
"You are not mistaken? If you are not mistaken, can Lin Mobai heal his wounds instantly?!" Song Chu roared, and smashed the inkstone on his head again.
The guard wailed in pain, then his eyes rolled back and he fainted.
"Drag him out! Feed him to the dogs!"
Still not satisfied, Song Chu swept all the things on the table to the ground, making a mess, which made the people waiting outside the door so angry that they dared not say a word.
"Why are you angry, Third Prince?"
At this time, a gentle voice came from outside the door, and then a light yellow figure walked in slowly.
After she stepped over the messy things, she put her hand on Song Chu's back and calmed him down.
"But the letter to Commander Jiang is missing?"
Song Chu said nothing, still with a gloomy face.
Seeing him like this, Hua Wen understood, bent down and picked up the bloody hidden weapon from the ground, stroking it and narrowing her eyes, "In this case, why not sever ties with Commander Jiang as soon as possible? Anyway, he has been very thoughtful in recent days. I think he has tasted the sweetness, so he is fearless."
"Besides, if this thief is really the second son of the Lin family, then the Lin family must have discovered the silver mine and must be investigating. We will send people to keep a close eye on them. If we really see them revealing their true colors, then this matter must be related to them, so we should make preparations early."
"And before, Shen Qiantang was exposed, and the Prime Minister's Mansion was eliminated overnight. Doesn't the Third Prince find it very strange?" Hua Wen thought, "They had been doing things peacefully before, but suddenly, everything Shen Qiantang did was exposed in front of everyone. No one would believe it if it was a coincidence."
"The Crown Prince has always been unaware of this, so why did he suddenly join forces with the Lin Mansion?"
"Before, the Third Prince wanted to win over the Second Young Master Lin. In my opinion, the Lin Mansion has long stood on the side of the Crown Prince. Maybe they have been deliberately trying to please the Third Prince to keep us hanging."
Song Chu frowned and sat down on the chair, tapping the arm of the chair impatiently with his fingertips, "Then according to what you said, the Lin Mansion has long been aware of this prince's thoughts?" The
Lin Mansion is wealthy and powerful. Although Lin Qiming no longer has the military power, which of his former subordinates are easy to deal with? As long as he gives an order, maybe those people will be willing to make him a general again.
And his three sons are not ordinary people.
The eldest son became a doctor in the Ministry of Personnel, and his future is limitless.
The second son has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he also walked out of the sea of blood and corpses with Lin Qiming when he was a child. As long as he reaches the age, he will naturally return to the barracks, and then there will be people surrounding him.
The third son is said to be a good businessman. He has a lot of wealth at a young age. The Shenghuai Restaurant jointly operated with his grandson's family has long become the number one restaurant in Yanjing City.
His original intention was to win over Lin Zhiyu and make Lin Zhiyu his confidant in the court.
But that person, soft and hard, was not easily persuaded and was on good terms with the prince, so he had no choice but to choose Lin Mobai.
However, if Lin Mobai can be used by him, then he will definitely be a great help in the future.
Unfortunately, it seems that Lin Mobai obviously does not want to give him this face.
Thinking of this, Song Chu gritted his teeth and his face was distorted.
"All of them! Just like those people! They all look down on this prince! They think that this prince is born by an unfavored concubine and is not favored by his father! They all run to please my eldest brother!"
"How can he be better than this prince!"
Song Chu kicked the table fiercely as if to vent his anger, and then pulled out the sword next to him and chopped it on the table, and then fell back on the chair with a heavy breath.
During this period, Hua Wen did not hide or avoid, just watched quietly, and did not seem to be afraid of Song Chu's anger towards her.
"So the Third Prince's initial idea was right." Hua Wen lowered her eyebrows, a cold light flashed in her eyes, "Since they are so ignorant of their manners, don't blame us for using any means."
"I heard that Lin Zhiyu has been getting close to Miss Chu recently. They are a talented couple, and it would be a good story if we start with her. Then the Lin family will naturally have no time to worry about the silver mine."
Song Chu had no expression on his face and said nothing.
"Secondly, we have to change someone to go to Young Master Qi."
After a while, Song Chu hummed coldly.
Suddenly, he said, "The fourth Miss Lin is also very interesting."
Hua Wen nodded in understanding, and then retreated.
...
Three days later, Baichun Garden.
Lin Baoer ran to the camellia with her legs swaying backwards, then picked a branch with great effort, excitedly turned her head and waved at Chu Jingchen, "Sister Chu, look at this! Is it pretty?"
Chu Jingchen, who was not far away, smiled softly, took the soup from the maid, and then walked over.
"It looks good, but it's a pity that the color is a little lighter."
