Chapter 398 Eighth Master



After leaving the Tenth Prince's residence, Chen Siyuan went directly back to the North Garden of the General's Mansion.

As soon as she entered the door, she picked up a book and started reading.

Chunlan and Chunping stood quietly to the side.

An hour later, Yang Lei arrived.

"Young Madam, please go inside."

"Who?" Chen Siyuan immediately put down the book in her hand and looked at Yang Lei.

The investigation into the fabric revealed something fishy.

Manager Zhang of the Wen Family Cloth Shop did not die from that batch of cloth, but was murdered earlier.

As it happened, right there at the fabric factory, the older brother was suspected in this way.

This is enough to prove that my brother is alright.

Her older brother still hadn't been released and was still being held in custody. Thinking of her father's letter, she knew she didn't need to worry too much. But since the matter concerned her older brother, she didn't want to be idle, so she began to investigate.

Sure enough, the place where the fabric came in was acceptable.

After investigation, it was found that the fabric was not sent from the Feathered Clan at all. It was only because the other party noticed that the person delivering the fabric had changed several times that they gave the other party a chance.

Who exactly is this person who delivered the fabric?

That's how the investigation led to the tenth prince.

But how could the Tenth Prince, a man on the verge of death, have such a meticulous plan? Clearly, someone is behind it.

who?

She didn't know.

We have no choice but to take a risky approach.

This trick worked!

He had seen the Tenth Prince, who was confined to his bed and too weak to even get out of bed. He could only rely on the people around him.

"Chen Xin".

Chen Siyuan was clearly taken aback when she heard this.

It turned out to be Chen Xin.

When did Chen Xin join forces with the Tenth Prince?

The matter involving my elder brother last time was related to the tenth prince. Could they have been connected back then?

No, at that time Chen Xin was still being tortured by Princess Qi, and had no chance at all.

Thinking of this, he said, "Continue."

"Yes." Yang Lei left quickly.

She never expected that after being involved with several men, she would end up with nothing but being connected to the Tenth Prince. Even he found it impossible, but it really happened, and he had no choice but to believe it.

Soon, Black Hawk and Wang Li brought news. After making some arrangements, Chen Siyuan decided to take a break for a while.

I slept very soundly until I woke up in the middle of the night.

Seeing that it was pitch black all around, she did not wake the two maids, but sat alone on the steps by the door, wearing an outer robe.

Looking up at the night sky, it was gloomy, as if a heavy rain was about to come.

I wonder if this heavy rain will bring me back a clear sky.

After sitting for a while, Chen Siyuan thought about many things. She returned to her bed and couldn't fall asleep for a long time. It wasn't until dawn that she finally drifted off to sleep.

The sun rose, and Chen Siyuan woke up.

Just like every day, I wash up.

When Chen Siyuan went out, the slight confusion she had felt upon waking disappeared, and she appeared before everyone in her usual state.

Chen Siyuan made a special trip to the yamen to see his elder brother, but was refused. Later, Chen Siyuan used his identity to finally get a chance to see his elder brother.

When she arrived at her elder brother's cell, she could no longer remain calm.

Outside this place is a prison cell, but inside, everything looks nothing like a prison cell. What's even stranger is that the eldest brother is drinking with the prison guard inside.

"Big brother?"

Chen Luyang was drinking when he saw his sister standing in front of him. He immediately stood up and pushed her out, saying, "What kind of place is this? How dare you come in here." He was annoyed.

Even the best place is still a prison. How could we let my sister come to such a filthy place?

"Brother, can you tell me what happened?"

"This is not a place for you. Get out of here." Chen Luyang didn't want to see Chen Siyuan in this place, so he didn't explain and pushed Chen Siyuan away.

"Big brother—" Chen Luyang's impatient appearance pained Chen Siyuan.

She just wanted to see her older brother to see if he was really as her father had said.

What I saw before me was completely unexpected.

What exactly happened?

She didn't know, but she always felt that there was something strange about this prison cell.

This is the prison of the yamen, not the prison of the Dali Temple. There is a certain difference, which she can understand. But, what exactly is going on with her brother?

"Alright, you've seen me. This place is unlucky. You should leave now. I'll come find you when I get out in a few days." Chen Luyang said, pushing Chen Siyuan again. Seeing that Chen Siyuan had no intention of leaving, his expression turned ugly.

"Alright, let's go."

Upon seeing this scene, Chen Siyuan glanced again at the jailer standing beside her in the cell.

“Okay, brother, I’ll listen to you.” Chen Siyuan said this, and in front of her brother, she handed a silver note to the jailer. “My brother has a bad temper, please bear with him.”

"Yes, yes, yes..." The jailer took the silver note, his eyes crinkling into a smile.

Chen Siyuan glanced at her elder brother, feeling a deep sense of reluctance. She realized that staying in this place for too long wouldn't be a good thing.

After thinking for a moment, I left quickly.

At this moment, Chen Siyuan, who had just left, was unaware that Chen Luyang had gone to the cell next door, and deep inside the cell, a man dressed in fine clothes came out.

"Eighth Master!" The jailer from before knelt on the ground.

The Eighth Prince glanced at Chen Luyang and said, "Young Master Chen, your sister is really capable, even managing to get into a place like this."

......

After leaving the government prison, Chen Siyuan quickly headed towards the Chen family home.

Having confirmed that her grandmother had left, and knowing that the servants would inevitably be frightened by what had happened, Chen Siyuan had enough food delivered so that they wouldn't have to worry about food during this time.
