Chapter 105 Jiang Liuyun's Thoughts

Seeing that Lin Zhiqing had regained consciousness, Jiang Liuyun and Lin Shian did not stay long and went to the front yard.

Lin Yangyang and Aunt Mu helped Lin Zhiqing up and gave her some water.

"Why is Prince Jiang here?" Lin Zhiqing's voice was hoarse.

Lin Yangyang took the teacup and said, "I don't know either, but my cousin said he came here last night."

"It seems that the matter of the bandits has been given full authority to the Marquis of Zhenyuan."

Did he rush back because he heard the news that something happened to the Lin family?
Lin Zhiqing didn't say anything else. He waved and asked about what Aunt Mu had told him last night.

"Miss, I asked someone to look for it. There are several peach blossoms in the south and north of the city that have not yet faded." Aunt Mu took out a marked drawing.

Lin Zhiqing took it and looked at it, and found that there were eight locations on it, all on the edge of Shengjing City.

Among these eight locations, four are villages under the jurisdiction of Shengjing City, two are hot spring villages, and two are temples.

Lin Zhiqing nodded as he looked at it: "What about the Ministry of Justice?"

When asked about the Ministry of Justice, before Aunt Mu could say anything, Lin Yangyang couldn't help but speak: "I couldn't sleep last night, so I went out to watch the excitement for a while."

"I heard that a female prisoner was kidnapped from the Ministry of Justice's prison. The thief has not been found yet, and the whole city is under martial law."

"This incident has suppressed the Fourth Master's matter. I took a look around this morning and saw very few people from the Lin family." Aunt Mu added.

Lin Zhiqing understood what Aunt Mu wanted to express. Lin Yangyang and she went to the Ministry of Justice last night. Together with Lin Shian, only four people knew about it.

Aunt Mu brought a bowl of porridge and looked at Lin Zhiqing's thoughtful expression, feeling a little distressed:
"Miss, you should stay at the Lin family and have a good rest today. Miss Yangyang and Master Shi'an will take care of the things over there."

After hearing this, Lin Yangyang's eyes lit up and she patted her chest: "Sister Qing, just leave the matter to me."

This is really worrying.

Lin Zhiqing didn't want things to deviate from his established scope, and Lin Yangyang and Lin Shian were too young and had no experience in investigating cases, so it was easy for them to overlook some small details.

"I feel much better now. I'm just going for a walk. Nothing will happen." Lin Zhiqing rejected the suggestion to rest.

Aunt Mu wanted to persuade her again, but Lin Yangyang took the porridge from her hand and boasted to herself, "Ah, Aunt Mu, it's useless to persuade Sister Qing. You might as well prepare some ginger soup and herbs and wait at home."

Lin Zhiqing smiled. These days, the more she looked at her cousin, the more she felt that besides her excellent martial arts, her greatest strength was her absolute obedience.

When the situation is urgent, she won't keep asking you why, but will just focus on doing it.

Of course, these careless people are the easiest to be deceived.

"Aunt Mu, please go to the Lu family clinic for me and ask Nanyue for a dose of medicine for the cold. We will wait until the weather is better before setting off." Lin Zhiqing knew what was going on.

The medical conditions in Dasheng are not as good as those in her previous world. A small cold may take her life. She cannot completely ignore her own body.

She had seen Lu Nanyue's medical skills. If she weren't a woman, she would have been qualified to be an imperial physician.

Asking for a prescription from her is also a guarantee.

Aunt Mu saw that Lin Zhiqing had an idea in his mind. She opened her mouth but could not say anything. She could only accept the order and leave.

However, she not only brought back medicine, but also brought back another piece of news.

Lu Nanyue's clinic was in trouble and she was too busy to come and see Lin Zhiqing.

But she did not forget to comfort Lin Zhiqing, saying that her father had promised to help the Lin family plead for mercy.

Lin Zhiqing only inquired about the trouble at the Lu Family Clinic. After learning that Lu Nanyue had argued with a patient's relatives, she didn't take it too seriously. This kind of thing happened frequently at the clinic, so she didn't take it seriously. After boiling the medicine, she slept for another two hours.

When she woke up again, the dizziness she had felt earlier had disappeared, but her throat still hurt and her body was weak.

But these are all trivial matters. After she dressed neatly, she went to greet Jiang Liuyun first.

He rushed back to the Lin family overnight and said that everything was fine, but Lin Zhiqing didn't believe him.

At the same time, Jiang Liuyun did not rush back to Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion, but drank tea in the main hall, with an indelible sadness in his eyes.

Until Lin Zhiqing came over to say hello.

Seeing that Lin Zhiqing was able to get out of bed, a smile appeared on his face.

"Qing'er, I'm glad you're okay. I rushed back after hearing about the Lin family's situation." Jiang Liuyun was dressed in a tight suit and looked a little tired. "Don't worry, I will definitely plead for Lord Lin when I go to court tomorrow."

"I came back so suddenly, and I have to go to the palace to explain the situation to the Crown Prince. You have caught a cold, so you should get some rest first."

Lin Zhiqing thanked him but didn't mention that he had to go out.

Jiang Liuyun smiled, and then said goodbye to Lin Shian.

Looking at the sword at his waist and the dust on his shoes, Lin Zhiqing knew that he should not be recalled to Beijing.

The emperor is not in good health now, and the prince has been acting as regent in Dasheng. If he goes back to Beijing against the transfer order, he must go to the palace to apologize.

Judging from what he said, the purpose of his return should be to help the Lin family and himself.

Lin Zhiqing learned about the situation from her cousin, and it was almost the same as what she guessed.

She was not too worried. The father and son of Zhenyuan Marquis were both the backbone of the imperial court. At most, they would be given a minor punishment or a severe warning.

Under Lin Shian's worried eyes, Lin Zhiqing went out again.

She also brought a small portrait of Aunt Chun that she had drawn herself, and her destination was the places where Aunt Mu had found out that peach blossoms were still in bloom.

Lin Yangyang took a quick look and found that those places were all on the edge of Shengjing City, and there was not a single household in the city center.

Lin Zhiqing looked at the distance and decided to visit the four nearest villages first.

Whenever she arrived at a village, Lin Yangyang would take the small portrait and ask people nearby for news.

They ran all over the village like this, but found nothing.

Lin Yangyang found it interesting at first, but became a little bored later on.

Lin Zhiqing was not disappointed, but simply crossed out the excluded areas on the map.

Aunt Chun's hometown is thousands of miles away, and after being sold to Qianjin Pavilion, she became like a rootless duckweed.

She ran away with all her gold and silver. The safest thing to do would have been to leave Shengjing City immediately and not run to the surrounding villages to seek shelter.

She tapped the map, and the only things left were the temple and the hot spring resort.

"Let's go to the hot spring resort first." Lin Zhiqing's voice was bright.

She did not forget that when she discovered the mud on Aunt Chun's shoes, the mud was still wet.

Ordinary wet soil should not be able to remain for so long. In comparison, the Hot Spring Villa is more likely to be the place where Aunt Chun went before she committed suicide.
