Young Master Lin didn't care what his stepmother thought, and went straight to the Phoenix Tower. When the waiter came to greet him, he stood for a moment and said, "Let's do as before."
The waiter was very smart. He responded respectfully and led him upstairs to a private room. He then took him out through the secret door of the private room and went up to the third floor. The private room was guarded by Young Master Lin's confidant.
Although they were in the same building, the third floor was a completely different world compared to the second floor. Young Master Lin was very familiar with the place. He turned into the second room on the left and ran into Shen Chen who was fighting crickets with someone inside.
He paused, then frowned almost imperceptibly and said to him, "You are wasting your time on playing with things!"
Shen Chen was having fun with others and waved his hand without paying any attention to him. After a while, he shouted happily: "Give me money! Three hundred taels!"
Young Master Lin glanced over there with a cold face, and Liu Xinping ran over like a monkey and stood in front of him: "Cousin, I lost!"
It is reasonable to say so.
Liu Xinping is a relative of the Lin family. Although they have no relationship at all, he always likes to pester the Third Young Master Lin to play with him. It is probably because the Third Young Master Lin beat him into submission when they were young.
Young Master Lin was holding a Ru kiln moon-drinking cup in his hand, with no expression on his face, and glanced at him.
Liu Xinping shrank his head and was hit by a dice flying towards him by Shen Chen, causing him to cry out in pain.
"He is getting impatient with all the troubles in your family. If you want to die, just provoke him." Shen Chen lowered his head and carefully put his cricket into a bamboo tube. He turned around and looked at Liu Xinping with a smile: "Your cousin likes to punish you the most."
Liu Xinping pursed his lips. As a relative of the Lin family, he certainly knew all about the Lin family's affairs. He sighed and ran out.
Only Young Master Lin and Shen Chen were left in the room.
Young Master Lin was a very patient man. If no one talked to him, he would not say a word for ten days or half a month. However, although Shen Chen looked cynical, he was more patient than him. He kept fiddling with his stuff and didn't even glance at Young Master Lin.
Finally, it was Third Young Master Lin who spoke first: "How did you know about Feng Shuang? Did you send someone to follow him?"
It is true that Young Master Lin is a member of the Imperial Guard, but no matter how powerful he is, he is not the only one in charge of the Imperial Guard. He is only a fifth-rank associate and cannot take care of everything. Uncle Lin has more than one or two mistresses, and he has no interest in interfering.
If he still had to do this matter in the end, he couldn't choose a chess piece as good as Fengshuang, who could make the entire Marquis's house wary, and also let Madam Qinghe be quiet for a while.
It was Shen Chen who reported the letter to him.
Shen Chen looked into his eyes and smiled slyly: "I also hope that I did it, but it's not me. You also know that among so many princes, my father is the most feared... If I know everything about the capital as soon as I arrive, is it appropriate?"
It is indeed inappropriate. Some things can be done, and some things cannot be done. If you extend your hand a little further, that hand may be gone.
Lin Sanshao drank a sip of tea and looked at him coldly: "Who is that?"
We have to ask clearly. He knows so much about the Lin family. He knows where the mistress arranged by Uncle Li Lanlin lives, what her status is, and how many people there are in the family. It is really chilling.
Shen Chen smiled and asked him: "Do you remember the little girl in Dingbei Marquis Mansion?"
Young Master Lin thought about it carefully. He had very few contacts with the people from the Dingbei Marquis Mansion, except for those few times at the Tongzhou villa, and those were all for business purposes.
Although he didn't have a deep impression, it was still easy to guess. He asked, "Is it the seventh lady that Cao Wen liked?"
Shen Chen didn't reply to his words, but just said: "He made a deal with me, otherwise it wouldn't be so easy to do you such a big favor."
Young Master Lin reacted immediately.
There was no connection between them at all. How could they discuss a deal that could involve themselves? He thought about it and asked, "What about the girl who ran away?"
Shen Chen snapped his fingers, leaned back in his chair and nodded: "That girl, she said she would be of great use to her... ... She can't fall into the hands of others."
Young Master Lin looked at the table beside him, as if thinking. After a moment, he shook his head and said, "You know, this girl is no longer under my control. I picked her up on the way and took the token from King Zheng to see him... In order to save you, I made a deal with King Zheng and gave her to him."
If Prince Zheng had not woken up at that time, Shen Chen and Chu Jingwu would still be in trouble-----because Cao Wen had already proposed to let the Jinyiwei go to Prince Linjiang to see whether Shen Chen and Chu Jingwu were there. If Chu Jingwu and Shen Chen were not with Prince Linjiang and the others, something would still be wrong.
But even if King Zheng wakes up, it will be difficult to get him to do what he says, after all, he is a vassal king...
Fortunately, someone brought me a pillow when I was sleepy. Qinghe bumped into me, and what she was holding in her hand was a Hetian jade dragon-patterned jade pendant that was unique to the royal family...
Every descendant of the dragon and the phoenix has only one of these things. Anyone who is given this by King Zheng will have great importance in his eyes. Young Master Lin knew this very well, so he used Qing He in exchange for King Zheng to divert the attention of Shen Chen and Chu Jingwu.
Shen Chen nodded: "Didn't that girl tell you anything?"
Young Master Lin sensed something was wrong, and raised his head sharply and asked him, "What can she tell me?"
Shen Chen didn't say anything else. He thought for a while before saying, "I made a deal with that girl."
Young Master Lin had a clear mind and quickly figured out what was going on. He looked at him in surprise and said, "That was a ten-year-old girl..."
What could be worth Shen Chen making a deal with her
Shen Chen was unwilling to say more. He just asked, "Did you give it to someone in front of King Zheng?"
Young Master Lin nodded: "The person who gave it to me in front of me was a girl, but to be honest, I'm afraid she's not simple... She knows simple close combat skills and is also very smart. She's a difficult character to deal with."
At least he can cry and laugh in an instant, which shows that he is definitely a person with deep scheming.
Shen Chen said thoughtfully, then turned to talk to him about something else: "What is the current situation regarding the Feng family?"
Young Master Lin narrowed his eyes, unable to tell whether he was happy or angry, but the atmosphere around him grew cold unconsciously. "There is no explanation. Those people said that the prince committed suicide out of fear of punishment, and the trial is still ongoing."
But the people who are interrogating are Cao Wen's people. What can they find out? It's still up to them to control the situation.
Shen Chen flexed his wrists calmly and said to him, "I think you should not dwell too much on this matter for now. Everything depends on what the boss means. Wait until he reveals his intentions, and then you can decide whether to cause trouble for Cao Wen."
