Did you remember their young lady just before leaving?

Jiang Feng naturally had nothing nice to say. He gathered his sleeves and answered, "How can a wound heal overnight after being scratched by such a sharp branch?"

Zhu Xianzhi was silent for a moment, then bowed to Jiang Feng and said, "Please ask Butler Jiang to tell Ling'er that I did it unintentionally and ask her to forgive me this time."

Jiang Feng snorted coldly, "It would be better for the son-in-law to get the chance and talk to the young lady in person."

After the voice fell, Jiang Feng was too lazy to listen to Zhu Xianzhi's nonsense anymore, and he bowed and said, "Goodbye, sir! I'm sorry that I have too many things to do in the mansion and can't see you off."

Without saying another word, Jiang Feng entered the gate of the Lin Mansion.

The moment the door closed, Zhu Xianzhi put away his honest look, glanced at the plaque above the gate of the Lin Mansion with a frown, turned around and left with Zhou Quan, the steward of Yongning Marquis Mansion.

Jiang Feng went straight to Tianxiang Pavilion.

As soon as I entered, I saw the masters sitting around the table and chatting.

He bowed silently and stood aside.

"Send the person away?" He Jinchun asked.

After hearing this, Jiang Feng turned around and agreed.

There are twenty or thirty peach trees planted in the yard. The pink and white petals on the branches are opened, revealing the stamens. A gust of wind blows by.

The flower petals fluttered and fell, and the fragrant wind rolled up the gauze curtains and drifted into the Tianxiang Pavilion, seeming to dispel some of the solemn atmosphere in the room.

Lin Yuning said with a puzzled look: "I have observed Zhu Xianzhi these days and I find that he is not a cunning and resourceful person. Instead, he is a bit naive and stupid."

Indeed! Lin Luoling secretly sighed in her heart. In her previous life, Zhu Xianzhi was honest and kind, and he deceived her so much. After being together for nearly a year, Zhu Xianzhi doted on her.

Although Zhu Jingzhong often made mistakes, Zhu Xianzhi said that he was his father and for his sake, he should not take it to heart.

He also said that if you are angry, you can hit him a few times or scold him, it’s all fine, just don’t keep it in your heart!

It was not until the day she died that she saw Zhu Xianzhi's cruel face.

Even at this point, Lin Luoling still didn't know what Zhu Xianzhi's true face and temperament were like.

Maybe Zhu Xianzhi is just like Lan Wanshuang, too good at disguising himself.

A bitter smile appeared on Lin Luoling's lips, laughing at the fact that she had been married to Zhu Xianzhi for a year in her previous life, but never saw the clear picture of Zhu Xianzhi and Lan Wanshuang until her death.

Is she really stupid?

Chen Yin frowned and said, "If Zhu Xianzhi was a fool, how could he have repeatedly beaten Rong Shuhua who was secretly kept in Lan Wanshuang's courtyard?

Since he could beat Rong Shuhua, he might treat Sister Ling'er the same way in the future."

After a pause, she continued, "I accompanied Sister Ling'er to the Yongning Marquis' Mansion. If Biyou and Bizhi hadn't found out about the shady things that happened in the Yongning Marquis' Mansion, they would have been kept secret."

Lin Yuning agreed and said, "Chen Yin is right. Yongning Marquis's Mansion is really not a good place. We should really discuss how to get Ling'er to divorce Zhu Xianzhi as soon as possible."

Lin Luoling said thoughtfully: "Three days after returning home, he was treated like this. Maybe he pretended to be honest and simple, but he knew in his heart that he was being targeted on purpose, but..."

Lin Luoling raised her eyebrows and continued, "He hasn't gotten what he wants yet, so he just doesn't say it out loud."

"A little caution can bring gains, while a little carelessness can lead to losses. This is related to Ling'er's life, so it's always right to be cautious!" Lin Tingxu said with a serious look.

He turned around and said to He Jinchun, "Don't agree too quickly to give Zhu Xianzhi the two shops. Choose two more and then give them to him."

He Jinchun nodded and said, "Even if you don't say it, I think so too. That's right!"

As they were talking, He Jinchun suddenly remembered that Lin Luoling had mentioned Lan Wanyun to her last night. Lin Luoling knew that Lan Wanyun had failed, so she would definitely not give up. So she told He Jinchun to give him a taste of his own medicine.

He Jinchun said to Jiang Feng: "There is something I need you to do in person."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Feng knew that what He Jinchun was talking about must be extremely important, so he stepped forward to listen to his instructions.

He Jinchun lowered his voice and said, "Take a few of Lin's jewelry makers with you and find someone to buy more brass in Wanyang County. After making various jewelry, plate it with gold foil and put it in three or five boxes in the empty courtyard at the west corner gate of our mansion."

Jiang Feng was puzzled, because brass was used by high-ranking officials and nobles to make burial utensils for their deceased elders.

Ever since He Jinchun took over the family business, he required the shop owners of Lin's various stores to have a keen eye when purchasing goods, and no fraud was allowed.

Even if the medicinal materials in the pharmacy were infested with worms, He Jinchun would not let them follow the example of those black-hearted pharmacies that sold the infested medicines to poor people and made unscrupulous money.

Why did he have to plate brass with gold today and make three or five boxes of jewelry? What's going on?

Jiang Feng was highly regarded by Mr. He and received great favor from He Jinchun, who even married his personal maid, Nanny Qi, to him.

No matter what He Jinchun asked him to do, he never asked any questions. He took the order, bowed and said to Aunt Qi behind He Jinchun,

"Please take care of all the affairs in the mansion and take good care of the lady and the young lady. I will finish my work and come back as soon as possible."

After saying that, Jiang Feng turned and left.

Lin Yuru put down the teacup and asked, "Sister-in-law, are you planning to make three or five boxes of fake jewelry and give them to the Yongning Marquis and his wife? So that they will agree to the divorce between Zhu Xianzhi and our Ling'er?

We in the Lin Mansion have no shortage of gold and silver. We can take out thirty or fifty boxes of gold jewelry, not to mention three or five boxes. Fake jewelry coated with gold foil will be exposed if worn for three or five months, right?"

Before she finished, Chen Yin gently tugged at Lin Yuru's collar and revealed the truth with a smile, "If I'm not mistaken, stepmother heard Sister Ling'er talk about Lan Wanyun and made fake jewelry for Lan Wanyun, right?"

"Who is Lan Wanyun?" Lin Yuru asked.

Chen Yin explained Lan Wanyun's identity and told Lin Yuru what happened that day.

Lin Yuru spat, "What about Wantong and Wandu? I've never heard of them. You want to take over the Lin family's escort order with a fake golden phoenix hairpin? Bah, bah, bah, you are really black-hearted and plotting against Ling'er."

He Jinchun told Lin Luoling the plan she had been given.

I heard Lin Yuning and Lin Yuru praised it.

Lin Tingxu suddenly felt that his daughter seemed to have grown up overnight and was able to have such good ways of dealing with things. He couldn't help feeling sad because he and He Jinchun had failed to find out the truth and married his daughter to the Yongning Marquis' Mansion. Facing such a family, how could his daughter not be cautious in everything?

Therefore, Lin Tingxu praised distressedly: "This is a very good plan to deal with treacherous villains!"

After saying that, they gathered together to continue discussing how to work together to deal with the group of jackals and tigers in the Yongning Marquis' Mansion.

After talking for more than an hour, Chen Yin reminded: "Sister Ling'er, it's time to change the medicine on the wound on your wrist."

As soon as He Jinchun looked at Madam Qi, Madam Qi said, "I will ask the servant to call Doctor Yan."

After three cups of tea, Madam Qi came back and reported, "Doctor Yan has been invited to Prince An's mansion."

He Jinchun frowned and asked, "Prince An's cough has recurred?"

Lin Yuru picked up a piece of dried fruit and said with regret, "Prince An is deeply favored by His Majesty, but he is too weak. He was given such a precious and large fiefdom as Jingxuzhou in the hope that he would come here to recuperate.

It has been three years, and Prince An's health is getting worse day by day. It is such a pity."

……

Doctor Yan, who had just finished taking Prince An's pulse, was writing a prescription on the medicine pad.

Suddenly, Prince An asked, "I heard that Miss Lin was injured yesterday? Is it serious?"

Doctor Yan was startled. Seeing Prince An's indifferent expression, he lowered his eyes and stroked his lifted sleeves, as if asking casually.

However, he had been treating Prince An for three years in Prince An's mansion. After checking Prince An's pulse every time, Prince An would just thank him and then lazily fall asleep. Why did he suddenly ask about their young lady today? And he even knew that their young lady was injured?
