However, these people should have been taught a lesson, so that they would not think that they could decide everything in this world and control the life and death of everyone at will.

For what Xue Changshi and his men did, it would not be unjust even if they died a thousand times.

Lin Sanshao knew Wei An's character and knew that she would not let Xue Changshi go this time and would definitely cut off the trouble in the future. He looked at her curiously and asked her, "How is it? Are you planning to kill everyone?"

For such a cold man, he showed some rare playfulness when he said this, and it was like the ice and frost melted in an instant. Yuqing and Lanhe were stunned when they saw this behind Wei An.

Speaking of which, apart from Shen Chen, they have never seen anyone more handsome than Young Master Lin. Young Master Lin never smiled before, but now when he smiles, they realize that he seems to be no less handsome than Shen Chen.

Wei An was also infected by his smile and started joking: "You said it as if I were a demon who kills without blinking an eye. If I want to kill, I have to have a chance."

"Opportunities don't just come knocking on your door." Lin Sanshao smiled disapprovingly and continued to ask: "I know your temper. Not to mention that there is still no news about Prince Zheng and Xie Liangcheng, even if you have confirmed that they are safe, you will definitely not let them go. Moreover, they almost killed the princess and the young master."

"The Third Young Master really knows my personality very well." Wei An couldn't help laughing, and he stopped hiding it. He nodded very honestly, "I'm fed up. He's so unscrupulous. No one would believe him if he said he had no one to back him up. And after all the calculations, the only people who could back him up are the princess or concubine of the Linjiang Palace. No matter which one of them it is, I have to let them know the consequences of stretching their hands too far."

Third Master Lin poured her another cup of tea and told her a few words about Princess Yonghe's marriage to Marquis Guanzhong recently. Then he said, "Marquis Guanzhong is very proud in the capital now. I heard that he has been making a lot of noise before the princess married. He has been going to all the red-light districts. Shen Chen is in a lot of trouble in the palace."

Whenever Marquis Guanzhong and Princess Yonghe made a fuss, Shen Chen would start to worry. If anything went wrong with their marriage, Princess Yonghe would be like a powder bomb that could explode at any time.

Wei An did not mention this matter. She said directly to Lin Sanshao: "Sanshao, I need your help."

Finally, they got to the point of the meeting. Young Master Lin hummed, put down the teacup, and asked Wei An to continue with interest: "If there is anything I can help you with, just tell me."

Wei An then reached out and handed over a purse.

Young Master Lin took it with some doubt. He found that the purse was exquisite and new. He weighed it for a while and looked at her curiously: "Is this for me?"

Wei An smiled and shook his head: "How can I give a purse away casually? Please find a way to give this thing to His Majesty."

Young Master Lin said "oh", glanced at her, then turned the purse over. After seeing what was inside clearly, he couldn't help but stuff the things back into the purse in shock.

The thing in the purse is an exquisitely shaped crystal seal.

This seal is so beautiful that people can't take their eyes off it, but Young Master Lin knows that it is something that can take a person's life - because not many people can have it. He has seen this thing beside Emperor Longqing. It was Emperor Longqing's favorite seal before he ascended the throne.

However, few people know that these seals are a pair.

Originally, the late emperor bestowed this uninscribed seal on King Zhou, who had the greatest hope of ascending the throne. Naturally, King Zhou did not have a good ending later.

Later, this crystal seal somehow came into the hands of Emperor Longqing.

Everyone was talking about it behind the scenes, saying that King Zhou's sudden death was actually the result of a conspiracy between Emperor Longqing and the Feng family, and Emperor Longqing kept the seal with the missing one.

As for why one of the seals was missing, some people rumored that it was secretly taken away by the surviving descendants of King Zhou. It is also said that if the seal reappears in the world, it will be the time for King Zhou's descendants to expose the true face of Emperor Longqing.

Of course, this was a rumor that was stopped by killing many people at the beginning of Emperor Longqing's reign.

But this matter eventually became a thorn in the side of Emperor Longqing. Emperor Longqing could not stand the seal made of yellow crystal, and even more so the seal of this style.

In the eyes of Emperor Longqing, whoever presented this seal was deliberately mocking him for murdering his brother and bringing up old matters. For Emperor Longqing, this was a reverse scale that he would never tolerate being touched.

Wei An actually knew this and had this thing!

Young Master Lin clenched his purse and looked at her solemnly, a little puzzled: "Is this what the old lady meant?"

But even if she is an old lady, there is no place to get this seal...

Wei An lowered her head. She had lived many years longer than others, so naturally she knew some secrets that were unknown to others. In her previous life, after Peng Caichen came to power, he wrote a manifesto for Emperor Chenghua to attack Emperor Longqing, accusing him of murdering his brothers, having no brotherly love, and being completely unscrupulous.

So Wei An knew about this matter very well, and she had seen the seal with her own eyes. It was placed on Peng Caichen's desk and was regarded as an ordinary decoration.

Crystals are not rare, what is rare are the style and the position of the font underneath. By chance, Wei An knows them all.

Xue Changshi has repeatedly called a horse a zebra to scheme against others. After much thought, she decided that she wanted to get rid of them once and for all and completely eliminate them without any room for maneuver. This method was the most suitable one.

No one should know about an emperor's shameful past, no one.

Whoever touches it will die.

This is an eternal law.

After a while, she raised her head and looked at Lin Sanshao with a smile: "You don't have to worry about this. You just need to tell His Majesty that you received a seal, but what came with the purse was a blank white paper... That's enough."

Young Master Lin looked at the purse for a while and almost immediately understood Wei An's intention - the needlework and fabric used in the purse...

He suddenly realized: "You want to label Xue Changshi as an accomplice of Concubine Peng De?"

Anyone who was related to this matter would be considered by Emperor Longqing to be a member of Concubine Peng's party who had escaped the net. He would also regard this purse and this seal as their disobedience and resistance.

Wei An hummed, without any hesitation: "The cloth used for this purse is summer cloth, which Jiangxi only produces three pounds a year, and the gold and silver threads used in it are also rare tributes from Shuzhong that only Empress Defei has. As for where I received this purse, I believe you know what to say." (To be continued)
