Until Ye Jin was taken away by the people from the Procuratorate, Lin Shaoshu, in order to avoid suspicion, did not even say a word to plead for Ye Jin.

He just watched helplessly as his fiancée, who had been married to him only yesterday, was taken away by soldiers, with a cold expression on his face.

Sometimes Xiao Xuetang really couldn't understand Lin Shaoshu. The two had known each other for more than ten years and were husband and wife in their previous life, but Xiao Xuetang still couldn't see through what he wanted deep in his heart beneath his seemingly gentle and affectionate appearance.

In his previous life, Xiao Xuetang might have tried to get closer to Lin Shaoshu's heart, but in the end, he got nothing except getting himself covered in bruises and dying a miserable death.

Living his life over again, Xiao Xuetang might not be too lazy to guess.

Ye Jin, Xiao Yi, and Madam Nan have all been thrown into prison, and they are about to pay the price for the crimes they committed.

Xiao Xuetang has already collected the evidence of Ye Jin, Ye's Business, and Baicaotang, and will present it to Jingzhao Prefecture through the witnesses she rescued;

Xiao Yi, even though Madam Nan insisted that he had nothing to do with Nanjiang, he was very cunning and treacherous. No clues or evidence were left behind by either Nanjiang or the eunuch party, but there was one case in which he could not escape his involvement...

The witness is also on the way back to Kyoto!

As for Madam Nan's matter, it was more complicated and involved a lot of people. She and Lin Xun had a clear division of labor, and Madam Nan was handed over to Lin Xun for disposal. She believed that Madam Nan would be no luckier in Lin Xun's hands than in hers...

Then, the next one... is Lin Shaoshu’s turn!

Xiao Xuetang was silently thinking about what to do next, but she didn't expect that Lin Shaoshu was still staying in the Marquis' Mansion at this time.

Ah……

According to the information Xiao Xuetang has currently, Lin Shaoshu has been plotting something with the Southern Xinjiang Tianxuan Sect.

Now that the branch temple of Tianxuan Sect has been destroyed, Foshu has escaped, and Madam Nan has been arrested, the situation is critical, but Lin Shaoshu is still able to keep his composure.

Lin Shaoshu stopped Xiao Xuetang, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself, obviously he had something to say.

But Xiao Xuetang looked at Lin Shaoshu's face and showed no patience. She didn't even want to give him any extra glances and said directly, "Third Prince, are you trying to plead for Ye Jin? You're wrong. I've been planning for this day for so long, and I won't be soft-hearted."

Lin Shaoshu had a lot to say, but Xiao Xuetang's cold attitude made him feel as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head. His face darkened...

"Although we have broken off the engagement now, let's be fair. Was it you who planned what happened between Ye Jin and I at Wenyuan Pavilion that day? Even though I used to use you, you have already taken your revenge. Now Ye Jin has been imprisoned. Can't we go back to the way we were before?"

"Even if you don't care about our relationship, you should still consider it for my mother's sake."

Xiao Xuetang was shocked.

This was the first time she had seen someone so shameless...

Xiao Xuetang's stern gaze pierced Lin Shaoshu. The sunset glowed on her pair of affectionate and watery peach blossom eyes, which were faintly smoke-like. Under the golden glow, there was an illusion of tenderness.

After Lin Xun finished his work, he saw this scene:

In the evening of June, the flowers are flying and the roses are blooming brilliantly, with a faint fragrance in the wind.

Xiao Xuetang was wearing a light green brocade skirt, plain clothes and black hair, she was extremely beautiful. Her pair of affectionate peach blossom eyes looked at the handsome man in front of her, everything was beautiful like a poem and a painting.

His eyebrows twitched violently, and this scene seemed to bring him back to that day in the back garden of the marquis' mansion.

On the wall, clusters of crabapple blossoms bloomed brightly. The dusty young man climbed up the wall without regard for etiquette to see the girl he loved. The two looked at each other for a moment, and even someone as cold as Lin Xun could not help but be moved.

At that time, Lin Xun was completely focused and even had some leisure time to sigh: he didn't expect that there would be someone as sentimental as Lin Shaoshu in their royal family?

just now……

The ink-black soles of the boots stepped on the dead branches, making a crisp sound. The two people standing in the remote corner looked in the direction of the sound at the same time.

Lin Shaoshu was alert and gloomy, while Xiao Xuetang ran to him happily, pointed at Lin Shaoshu and said, "Let Langya bite him!"

Lin Shaoshu...

Lin Xun raised the corners of his lips slightly, and when he met the girl's sparkling eyes, he inexplicably had an urge to rub them.

However, with Lin Shaoshu's cold gaze, Lin Xun still held back and said lightly: "Third Prince, please move slower. I'm afraid that the Yong'an Marquisate will fall into the hands of the East Palace."

Lin Shaoshu didn't know what he was thinking of. His face changed slightly. He looked at Xiao Xuetang and Lin Xun unwillingly, and finally said to the attendant beside him: "Go back home!"

Xiao Yi was arrested by the people from the Criminal Investigation Bureau, and the whole Kyoto was in chaos. For Lin Shaoshu, his plan was completely disrupted.

Now, Lin Shaoshu realized that Xiao Xuetang's target was Xiao Yi and Ye Jin, and as for Lin Xun's target, it was Xiao Xuetang!

Moreover, Lin Xun was a person who was afraid of chaos in the world and did not act according to common sense. He was very worried that Lin Xun would hand over the Yong'an Marquis Mansion to the Eastern Palace for trial just to watch the fun.

If Donggong got the secret in Xiao Yi's hand in advance, he would be in a completely passive position.

At this moment, Lin Shaoshu no longer cared about any romance. He quickened his pace because he had to enter the palace!

For both public and private reasons, he must insert someone into the case of Yong'an Marquis Mansion. Ye Jin and Madam Nan would be fine, but he must control Xiao Yi in his own hands.

Just as Lin Shaoshu left the Marquis' Mansion, Prime Minister Wang had received the news and was preparing to go to the palace for an audience...

Wang Xian also didn't expect that Lin Xun had actually set a trick for all of them. The target was not the eunuch party, but the Yong'an Marquis Mansion.

Wang Xian didn't care at all about Xiao Yi's romantic affairs. What he cared more about was the secret letter or the secret decree in Xiao Yi's hand?

It would be terrible if Xiao Yi, that spineless guy, gave the things to Lin Xun in order to save his life...

No, this matter concerns the late emperor. Lin Xun and the late emperor have a father-son relationship. I am afraid Xiao Yi is more afraid that the things will fall into Lin Xun's hands.

But even if Xiao Yi didn't take the initiative to hand over the secret letter, the Yong'an Marquis had already been sealed by the Inspection Office. What if Lin Xun found something he shouldn't have searched for...

Thinking of this, the usually cunning Wang Xian became solemn and flustered, and quickened his pace to meet Emperor Yonghui!

This was something Wang Xian had never expected. Lin Xun actually played against the rules. Without any warning, he directly attacked Xiao Yi, catching them off guard.

but……

This is also an opportunity.

As long as Xiao Yi is not in trouble, they are not as powerful and reckless as Lin Xun, who would directly attack a third-rank military marquis.

Now that Xiao Yi is being held by the Jinjianyuan, the Yong'an Marquisate is already guilty, like meat on the chopping board, ready to be slaughtered at will...

He must find a way to let his Ministry of Justice take over the Yong'an Marquis Mansion!

After all, Wang Xian was old and his legs were slow, and with the addition of Lin Shaoyu who didn't understand the situation yet, he was held back. So he and Lin Shaoshu entered the Emperor's Qinzheng Hall together.

At that moment, the two sides met on a narrow road, with the same purpose, but each with their own hidden agenda, and the atmosphere instantly became subtle...
