699 Investigation

“Right now, the third Prince, Yuwen Feiye, and the others are after the thousand-year-old ginseng that might be in the hands of the Lin family’s eldest young master. And the Lin family’s eldest young master is our old master, Lin Deshan!”

Lin yuelan knocked on the table and sneered sarcastically, ” it seems that the situation in Qingfeng city will change with grandpa’s appearance!”

Many forces had their eyes on Lin Deshan, wanting to take the thousand-year ginseng from him.

However, not many people knew the ginseng Lin Deshan had was not the Lin family’s treasure from 20 years ago, but the treasure that Lin yuelan had given to him.

Lin Qingsong looked at Lin yuelan’s disdainful expression as if she was looking down on an ant, and a hot-blooded impulse surged in his heart. This was an impulse to fight and compete.

!!

Lin Qingsong’s expression changed and he said with some worry, ” master, since the old master has been targeted by the third Prince, I’m afraid that the third Prince will directly go to the Zhou mansion to kidnap him. Is it our people…” What he wanted to say was that they simply didn’t have enough manpower.

The third Prince’s guards were meant to protect the royal family’s descendants, so they were naturally incomparable to the guards of ordinary families.

It could be said that he and guard Jie could defeat many other guards, but against the third Prince’s guards, it was impossible for three or four guards to protect their old master and retreat safely.

This was what he was worried about.

Lin yuelan raised her hand and said, ” don’t worry! As long as they dare to make a move, this lady will make sure that they won’t be able to return!”

Lin yuelan had always been a woman of her word. Since his master was not worried, he believed that his master must have an idea to protect the old master.

Lin yuelan suddenly thought of another matter and ordered Lin Qingsong, ” go and check if Zhou Anping’s Zhou family has any relationship with the Zhou family in the capital.”

“Yes, master!” Lin Qingsong replied.

The capital, the Defender General’s mansion…

Jiang Zhennan and Guo Bing sat opposite each other.

Guo Bing’s expression was a little bad as he said, ” big brother, the third Prince has been ordered to Qingfeng city to investigate Governor-General Zhou Anping’s corruption of the relief funds. Zhou Anping is the in-law of the crown prince’s maternal uncle. Is it possible that the third Prince will take this opportunity to pour dirty water on the Crown Prince?”

Although they were not on the side of any of the princes, they still did not want the third Prince to take the throne.

If Yuwen Feiye really had the demeanor and magnanimity of a King, it would be fine. However, not only was this Yuwen Feiye arrogant, but he was also narrow-minded and treacherous.

If a person like him became the king of a country, then the country would be destroyed sooner or later.

This was a scene that they were very unwilling to see.

However, it was impossible for them to openly support a Prince.

Because they were only loyal to the Emperor!

Jiang Zhennan said, ” the Emperor would not be so foolish!”

Compared to the third Prince, Crown Prince Yuwen Yuyu was more suitable to be the king of this country.

Guo Bing thought for a moment and said, ” although the Emperor wants to balance the three forces, he’s willing to turn a blind eye to their open and secret fights. I’m just a little worried. If the balance is broken, will His Majesty still be able to control the entire situation?”

The three forces that Guo Bing mentioned were the crown prince’s faction, the Third Prince’s faction, and the emperor’s eldest grandson, the only son of the former Crown Prince, Yuwen Xuhong.

What he was implying was that when one party’s power was higher than the other, there might be unknown situations such as forced abdication.

However, Jiang Zhennan said, “His Majesty is a wise Emperor. I believe that His Majesty will make your own decision! The problem we’re worried about won’t happen.”

Although Jiang Zhennan said this, Guo Bing was still a little worried. After all, the Guo family…

Guo Bing didn’t dwell on this matter.

He thought of something and said with a smile, ” big brother, don’t you think it’s funny? the third Prince suddenly sent me a few women.”

Jiang Zhennan was silent at first, but then he smiled and teased, ” isn’t that good? At your age, you really need a few women.”

Guo Bing immediately waved his hand in shock. “This is the hardest to accept a beauty’s kindness. Who knows if the third Prince is trying to plant some spies around me? That way, no matter where I go, there will be a pair of eyes staring at me. It’ll be very uncomfortable.”
