Chapter 95: Acting like a spoiled child
"They are mixed in with many letters and are keeping it a secret. There must be some conspiracy behind this
." Lin Zhiyu paused and said, "However, it will take some effort to find out whether Mr. Xu has any relationship with the third prince."
Lin Qiming nodded and pondered, "It doesn't matter whether there is a relationship or not. Even if there is no relationship, Xu Qiwei can't get away. He must be related to the silver smuggling. Let's continue to investigate along this line. Don't let the Qi guy go. Keep an eye on him day and night."
"But if there is evidence, it will prove that this matter was indeed planned by the Third Prince, and Xu Qiwei was just a chess piece in his hand."
"I just don't know how many of his people are in the court!"
Lin Qiming's face was not very good. He gripped the handle of the chair hard, with a frown on his face.
"I think it was his doing that Bao'er and Miss Chu were arrested this time." Lin Zhiyu's face was gloomy. "He did this to warn us."
"Warn us not to interfere in this matter."
Lin Qiming snorted coldly and slammed the table, revealing his aura. "Would I be afraid of him?! I will settle accounts with him sooner or later!"
"You dare to touch the treasure of our Lin family, so don't blame me for being rude!"
"Dad, the matter you asked me to find out from General Chang has come to fruition."
Lin Mobai clasped his fists and said carefully: "Although he is very secretive about this matter, he did let some things slip after drinking a few sips of wine."
"He said that someone did find him and promised him money to let him go to the coast, but at that time, the Prime Minister's Mansion was destroyed and he was lucky to escape, so he didn't want to get involved in these things anymore."
"But I felt that he didn't seem to be telling the truth, so I secretly interrogated his subordinates again."
"I just learned that he has been secretly withdrawing people from the army recently, and no one knows where they have gone."
Lin Mobai frowned, "I think it must be related to this matter. He is Shen Qiantang's man, and Shen Qiantang is on the side of the third prince. Once the Prime Minister's Mansion falls, he must have worked for the third prince."
"You said that, I guess you just want me to dispel my doubts."
Lin Qiming paced back and forth, "The silver smuggling incident can no longer be concealed. At most, it will take a few days. Your Majesty will definitely know about it, and then send people to investigate the matter."
"By then, in addition to the Ministry of Personnel, other ministries will naturally select people to send out."
"If His Majesty chooses you, that would be the best."
He looked at Lin Zhiyu and narrowed his eyes. "We have made so many preparations. It depends on the Crown Prince next."
...
The next day, after returning to the Lin Mansion, Lin Baoer was detained by Shen Xuelan in the mansion to recuperate. She was not allowed to go anywhere. It seemed like it was back to the way it was before.
However, Lin Baoer did not dare to complain this time, otherwise her butt would be beaten.
"Sister Qinglian, I want to go to Huaisheng Restaurant to eat."
Lin Baoer pouted and looked at Qinglian pitifully, pulling her sleeves, "I haven't eaten roasted lamb for a long time, I really miss it."
Qinglian looked embarrassed, "But...but Madam won't let Fourth Miss go out."
"Just go and ask for me~" she said coquettishly, "Third Brother went to the restaurant early this morning, he is here, and if mother is worried, you can also let Qin Huyuan go with me."
"But..." Qinglian hesitated, hesitated, embarrassed, and painful.
"Fourth Miss, please don't embarrass me."
She cried in her heart.
If Lin Baoer has any more accidents, she will really be blamed.
Seeing this, Lin Baoer could only lose her temper, "Okay, then I will go to find mother myself."
Shangchunyuan, the main room.
"Mother~Mother~Mother~"
Lin Baoer called coquettishly, and then dived into Shen Xuelan's arms.
Shen Xuelan glanced at her, pinched Lin Baoer's chubby cheeks helplessly, "Little ancestor, every time you do this, nothing good happens! What's the matter this time?"
Lin Baoer smiled awkwardly, rubbed in Shen Xuelan's arms, and said in a deep voice: "Mother, I want to eat the roasted lamb in the third brother's restaurant."
"It's not peaceful outside now, you can't go out." Shen Xuelan refused.
Lin Baoer pouted, "What's not peaceful? It's a peaceful and prosperous time now, mother!"
"Do you know what a peaceful and prosperous time is?" Shen Xuelan still refused mercilessly.
"Of course I understand!" Lin Baoer shook her head and said, "When the country is peaceful, the people are safe. When the people have enough food and clothing, and live and work in peace and contentment, how can it not be a peaceful and prosperous age?"
Shen Xuelan glanced at her, "Then the enemy invades and crosses the border. Can this be considered peaceful?"
"Oh, mother~" Lin Baoer climbed on her, hugged her neck and acted coquettishly, "What I want to say is that there are not so many dangers in Yanjing City. Besides, every time I go out, mother will let many people follow me. How can there be danger?"
"If mother is worried, let Qin Huyuan follow me as well. You are still worried about him, right? He is a first-class expert in the Lin Mansion. Ten assassins may not be able to beat him!"
"At the very least, let your second brother follow me as well."
"Mother, I just want to eat roasted lamb. Just let me go. I promise to be back before dark."
Shen Xuelan glared at her and sighed, "You always have countless reasons."
Lin Baoer chuckled twice and kissed Shen Xuelan on the face.
"My beautiful mother is the best!"
Shen Xuelan couldn't persuade her and finally let her go.
She knew that although Lin Baoer said she wanted to eat roasted lamb, she just wanted to go out and play, and didn't want to stay in the house quietly.
At the door of the Lin Mansion, Lin Baoer took a deep breath and then opened her hands in satisfaction.
"Ah! It's the taste of freedom!"
She said as she happily jumped away.
Behind her, Qin Huyuan followed closely, fearing that something would happen to this little ancestor.
"Guardian Qin, I want to eat this candied haws."
Lin Baoer pointed at the tall red string and said excitedly.
"Guardian Qin, I want to eat wine-brewed dumplings."
"Guardian Qin, this thin crispy cake looks delicious."
"Guardian Qin, do you like roasted chicken legs?"
"Guardian Qin..."
After a while, Guardian Qin's hands were full of things, even his little fingers were not spared.
As she walked, Lin Baoer found herself next to the candy and crisp shop that Lin Ruqian had opened before. Although Lin Ruqian no longer managed the shop himself, he did not sell it to others and it was still under the name of the Lin Mansion.
When she came here, Lin Baoer suddenly had a flash of inspiration. After leaving Guardian Qin, she hurried to another place.
Anshun Restaurant.
Lin Baoer looked at the restaurant and raised her eyebrows.
"Whose little kid is this?" The waiter at the door looked at Lin Baoer who was standing there, very confused.
"Boss, do you have fresh milk?"
