Chapter 870 Chapter 870
When Linshan found Linxi, he was outside Song Youan's house. He rented a small house diagonally opposite and had people guarding it day and night.
"What's the change?"
Linxi shook his head, "I haven't seen Song Youan leave the house."
"Are you sure he's at home?"
Lin Shan leaned over and looked over. The window of this small attic was facing the main entrance of Song Youan's mansion. "I've been out for the past two days. Has He Jiang come to visit?"
"Never seen it."
Linxi said truthfully, "The back door of his mansion was sealed for some reason in the middle of the year. Now the mansion is only the front door. Apart from ordinary servants and housemaids, no suspicious people have been seen, let alone Song Youan."
"Is he scared?"
Linxi nodded heavily, "It must be."
"Stay guard for a while. When the four young masters are on duty in the evening, they will definitely come over."
Linxi was a little surprised when he heard this. "Is the Fourth Young Master going to go straight into Song Youan's residence?" This might alert the enemy. Linxi was worried. "It's surprising that the Prince Yong's Mansion didn't send anyone here. This doesn't seem like He Jiang's style."
snort!
Lin Shan shook his head. "This is the style of Prince Yong. Something happened in the past two days, and he must be very anxious. If he finds Song Youan now and is caught by someone with ulterior motives, or by a general who is eager to escape, he will definitely bite back."
"A couple of bitches!"
Lin Xi gritted his teeth and cursed, "How did our Fourth Young Master and Young Madam offend them? They have been killed time and again. It's only because the Fourth Young Madam is so powerful, otherwise how could they have escaped?"
There were no waves on the surface of the mountain, which calmed down the restless shoulders of the stream.
"Don't worry, we have to settle accounts. The Jin family is a big family with great wealth. They were able to step on our master to ascend to the throne. With their complicated interests, what's the point of killing Jin Fuyun?"
Linxi's face was full of indignation, "Isn't it that bitch who's looking for trouble in the Jin family?"
Otherwise, now that his master no longer cares about court affairs, what interest conflict could he have with him?
"That's it!"
Lin Shan scolded in a low voice, "Fourth Young Master has thought about these things, but it is not time to settle the accounts yet. Besides--"
He paused, then lowered his voice and said, "Princess Hong'an committed suicide."
Linxi was on duty outside Song Youan's residence, but he had never heard of this. When he heard this, he could not hide his astonishment, "He died just like that?"
"How can one sustain oneself without dying?"
Lin Shan snorted, "This incident caught us off guard. Even if Jin Fuyun and He Jiang took a step back, they were an engaged couple having an affair. They can't be described as slutty, but they weren't to the point of drowning someone in a pond and killing them—"
"They killed the young lady."
"Where's the evidence?"
When Linxi heard this, he pointed at Song Youan's mansion and said, "This bastard must be one of the masterminds. Catch him and interrogate him thoroughly, and the truth will surely come out."
Just a bitch from the Music Bureau!
Linxi's face was full of contempt. Linshan looked at him deeply and said, "Young Madam, you are not allowed to touch Song Youan. I think Song Youan has come to his senses and lent a hand to save Young Madam at the last moment."
Linxi: ...
Lin Shan added, "Wait for the fourth young master to come."
After saying that, he and Linxi counted the people and asked, "Can't we send our people into the Jin Mansion?"
Linxi shook his head.
"In October, when Jin Yunfan took his family and Jin Fuyun away from the capital, he took away as many slaves as he could, and sent away many of those who couldn't be taken away. This time, Princess Hong'an returned to the capital, and most of the slaves she brought back were from Liyang. Our people... have no chance to get in."
The Jin family never hired servants.
Lin Shan frowned in thought, then relaxed after a moment, "Got it!"
"Brother, tell me!"
Linxi urged, and Linshan looked over. "Princess Hong'an is dead. No matter how undignified it is, she is still a member of the royal family. At her age, her funeral will certainly not be casual. Let's take advantage of their funeral and send someone in as soon as possible."
Yes!
Linxi was overjoyed. "This old hag died at the right time. According to what my eldest brother said, even if Jin Foyue survived, we have people waiting in the princess's villa. Even if she makes a move, we are not afraid!"
Linshan pondered for a moment and nodded slightly.
Suddenly, hurried footsteps were heard downstairs, "Brother, the husband has gone out."
Ok?
When Linxi heard this, he rushed to the window frame, quietly opened a crack in the window, and looked over. Sure enough, Song Youan was wearing a black coat, wrapped tightly, and got into the carriage with the help of a servant and a guard.
"Brother, is he going out?"
Lin Shan also came over to see what was going on, and without wasting a moment, he said, "Lin Xi, you come with me, we'll follow behind you."
Let's see, where is he going?
"Yes!"
The two men were also wrapped up tightly, pretending to be ordinary guards, riding their horses against the cold wind, following not too far away.
As they walked, Linxi whispered, "Brother, this is not the way to the Prince's Mansion!"
"I'm afraid he's heading out of the city!"
Lin Shan had already figured out that something was wrong. Lin Xi looked up at the gloomy and gray sky. "It's almost noon. Where is he going?"
"Just follow them!"
Because the weather was cold, the two of them wore cotton hats and warm clothes, as well as masks to keep out the fierce cold wind.
This way, no one can see the faces of the two.
After walking for about half an hour, Song Youan's carriage had already left the city gate. Linxi frowned, "Brother, he is really leaving the city. At this time, if he goes out, I'm afraid Song Youan won't be able to come back. Should we follow him?"
"with!"
Lin Shan said without hesitation, "Song Youan can't get into trouble. This kid has a greasy face, but the Fourth Young Master has never confronted him. Whether he wants to escape or meet someone this time, we have to follow him, just in case."
"Yes!"
The two followed him out of the city, the wind getting stronger as they walked.
There was a stretch of road where the fog was so thick that if it wasn't the only official road, we would have almost lost track of the people.
Linxi felt more and more suspicious, "Brother, is this Pipa Lang going to meet Mr. Jiang?"
"no!"
"If you just want to see Mr. Jiang, there's no need to take such a detour. Where is this kid... going?"
The road ahead was long and uncertain, and the two were getting further and further away.
Looking back at the city gate, it had already disappeared in the white vision.
As the sky gradually darkened, Pei An finally finished his official duties and cleared the paperwork before walking out of the residence. Alu had already stamped his feet and was standing by the side of the residence, leading the horse, waiting for him.
As soon as I saw him come out, I hurried to greet him.
"Fourth Master, it's too cold, please get in the carriage."
Pei An hummed. Fatigue and coldness made his hands and feet cold. In the afternoon, no one came to the house to add more charcoal fire. Pei An was busy and waited until the hour.
"Go to Song Youan's house."
A'lu heard Pei An's instructions in the carriage and quickly lifted the curtain to report, "Fourth Master, Master Song has gone out. Brother Linshan and Linxi followed him and sent someone to report. I'm afraid he may not be back at this time. Otherwise..., go back to the mansion first."
