Chapter 166

Inside Xunyang City.

A quiet tea house.

Lin Qingqing was sitting on the second floor by the window, staring at the street not far away.I don't know what I'm thinking, and my expression is a little dignified.

On the street not far away, there was a sudden noise.Immediately afterwards, a line of heavily armed soldiers appeared on the calm and bustling street, rushing over from afar.

The appearance of these soldiers immediately attracted the attention of many people.The people on the street gave way one after another, hiding under the eaves, pointing and talking.

The atmosphere in the city is tense these days, and everyone is no longer surprised by it.Just slightly curious, who will be unlucky today!
While everyone was discussing, they saw this line of fully armed and armored soldiers approaching the teahouse and heading straight upstairs.

In the teahouse, many people's faces changed.

Those people who were still talking loudly in the teahouse were all silent at this moment, not daring to breathe.Seeing those soldiers go upstairs, they all looked ugly and trembled all over.

These days, with such a big incident happening in the city, they often discuss it in public, pointing fingers at the government and the prefect's mansion.

Many people have been arrested and imprisoned.

Today, is it here again?

Just when everyone was anxious, this column of soldiers quickly surrounded and controlled the entire teahouse. Then, a man who looked like a general stepped up to the second floor and approached the window.

window.

Lin Qingqing sat quietly, raised her eyes, and looked at the general approaching her indifferently.

Not unfamiliar.

When she and His Highness first arrived in Xunyang City, it was this general who greeted them in the city and brought His Highness to the Prefect's Mansion.

What's it called... Wang Cheng?
A general under Wang Shiquan.

"Miss Lin, long time no see!"

Wang Cheng approached, and when he saw Lin Qingqing sitting at the table without changing his expression, his eyes were a little complicated, he took a deep breath, and quickly concealed the emotions in his eyes.

"My lord, please."

Lin Qingqing raised her eyes slightly, as if she had expected it long ago, and said lightly: "What is your lord looking for me for?"

Wang Cheng lowered his head and said calmly, "You'll know when Miss Lin goes...Your subordinates are just spreading rumors and don't know the inside story."

Lin Qingqing sneered contemptuously, got up and walked outside the teahouse.

"Let's go."

Wang Cheng was startled, as if he didn't expect her to be so talkative?

He was naturally aware of the person in front of him, and he heard that he was the most trusted confidant of Prince Lin's side, with a lot of power in his hands.

Today he was ordered to come here and invite this girl into the mansion.Originally, I thought that I might have to spend a lot of talking, or even... meet each other in battle.

Prince Lin's son died, and many people in the city now shift the responsibility to the prefect's mansion.Although Wang Cheng didn't know the inside story, he vaguely guessed that this matter might have something to do with the prefect.

It can be said that he was fully prepared for coming here today, but he didn't expect Miss Lin to be so cooperative?
For a moment, Wang Cheng felt a little strange in his heart.

disturbed?

Why does it feel like this Miss Lin has been waiting for him?
……

Prefect's House.

In the dull lobby, the atmosphere was tense.

It was not the first time for Lin Qingqing to come to the Prefect's Mansion. Some time ago, she lived with His Highness in the Prefect's Mansion for a while, and she had secretly investigated the structure of the Prefect's Mansion.

This time she stepped into the prefect's mansion alone, she didn't have much worry.Stepping into the lobby calmly, one can see the familiar figure sitting in the lobby at a glance.

Wang Shiquan.

Wang Shiquan, dressed in a gray robe, was sitting in the hall, with no expression on his face, with a look of vicissitudes and fatigue on his face.

Like an old man in his twilight years, yet there is an indescribable aura shrouded in his body.

"My lord, Miss Lin is here."

After Wang Cheng brought him into the lobby, he stepped aside.

Wang Shiquan raised his head slowly, his gaze fell on Lin Qingqing.A sharp light flashed across.In just a split second, it disappeared again.

Nothing seems to have happened.

Lin Qingqing approached slowly, raised her eyes to stare at Wang Shiquan in front of her, her face was expressionless, and she didn't say a word.

There was a cool breath, with a vague momentum of confrontation.

At this moment, Lin Qingqing suddenly had the aura of a paper kite in her body.

Also cold, proud, with a bit of arrogance, facing this Xunyang prefect, he did not lose the wind in the slightest.

She didn't speak, as if she was confronting the prefect silently.

When Wang Cheng retreated to the corner, seeing this scene, a trace of astonishment flashed in his eyes.

This Miss Lin was not polite when she saw the prefect, and even looked at him with such an offensive look, she...

Thinking of something suddenly, Wang Cheng's face changed slightly.

At the same time, Wang Shiquan was the first to speak: "Commander Lin?"

The tone was very calm, as if he didn't care about Lin Qingqing's rude offense to him in front of him, and said slowly: "But I haven't seen Commander Lin for a while, I wonder if it's okay?"

Lin Qingqing said calmly: "Don't worry about the prefect, everything is fine."

The tone seemed to be neither cold nor cold, but it actually carried a bit of deep coldness and hostility.

Even Wang Chengcheng heard it, and his face changed even more.This, is to tear the skin off with the adults?

However, Wang Shiquan sighed softly, and said, "I have been busy with government affairs recently, and I rarely pay attention to the affairs of the city... I heard rumors in the city in the past two days that something happened to His Royal Highness Prince Lin. I wonder if it is true?"

Lin Qingqing sneered in her heart, and exposed it unabashedly: "Whether it is true or not, shouldn't the prefect know best?"

Wang Shiquan frowned slightly: "Commander Lin, what do you mean by that?"

Lin Qingqing sneered even more, "Why do you pretend to be ignorant, my lord?"

Wang Shiquan was silent for a moment.

It seems that he didn't expect the other party to be so naked that he didn't even pretend?

As expected of the subordinate of the Prince Lin's son, his behavior style has inherited this point.

A trace of anger welled up in his heart, but he suppressed it quickly.

"I don't quite understand Commander Lin's words..."

Wang Shiquan was silent for a while, and said in a deep voice: "I know that Commander Lin must have misunderstood me..."

"I am deeply saddened by the murder of His Royal Highness, I did not expect such a shocking thing to happen in the territory under my jurisdiction, I am naturally duty-bound..."

"If you need my help, Commander Lin just ask. I will definitely give Commander Lin an explanation to King Lin!"

Wang Shiquan's face was full of seriousness and a bit of sadness, as if he was extremely sorry for the murder of Lin Wang's son.

Lin Qingqing watched this scene with cold eyes.

The acting is really good.

Dressed up very well.

Those who don't know the inside story may be deceived by his appearance.

Thinking of His Royal Highness and Sister Zhiyuan almost losing their lives, and thinking of so many siblings who died and were seriously injured, Lin Qingqing's anger surged up, and her eyes became colder: "If the prefect calls me today, it's just to play this scene , that’s unnecessary.”

Wang Shiquan's always gentle eyes finally changed slightly.He stared at Lin Qingqing, and said in a deep voice, "Commander Lin means that there is no room for maneuver in this matter?"

Lin Qingqing sneered: "Don't the prefect have an answer in his heart?"

Wang Shiquan's face was extremely ugly. He knew that the worst result was ushered in after all.

Taking a deep breath, he said in a deep voice: "I know that the accident of Prince Lin's son was an accident... No one wants this accident to happen. I am very sorry for this..."

"If Commander Lin is willing, I can make compensation..."

However, before Wang Shiquan could finish speaking, Lin Qingqing interrupted him coldly: "Master Taishou thinks that our Highness will miss these things?"

Wang Shiquan was silent again.

Yes!

compensate?

Will the Lin family be short of this?

Gold and silver treasures?Authority?Or something else?

The Lin family is located in Linzhou, powerful, rich and powerful, would they value these things?
This is the unsolvable answer.

But Wang Shiquan had to do so.

He was silent for a long time this time, and finally said: "This matter is a grievance between you Linwangfu and this official, and has nothing to do with Qin'er."

"so what?"

Lin Qingqing sneered, as expected, everything was as expected by His Highness.

"Qin'er is innocent..."

Wang Shiquan said in a deep voice, "Let him go."

"I don't understand what the prefect means?"

Lin Qingqing shook her head lightly.

Wang Shiquan stared at her: "Since you have reached this point, why do you continue to play dumb?"

"Fang Qin'er has a way out!"

Lin Qingqing's gaze was still indifferent: "Why did your lord say that? I have never had any contact with your lord's young master... His life or death has nothing to do with me!"

Wang Shiquan stared at her: "Are you going to deny that Qin'er was kidnapped by you?"

"My lord misunderstood, we have never kidnapped Young Master Ling!"

"..."

At this moment, Wang Shiquan was shrouded in haze.

Wang Qin is his only son, no matter how bastard he is, he is the only blood of his Wang family after all.For Wang Qin, he had no choice but to find Lin Qingqing himself, trying to rescue Wang Qin.

But Lin Qingqing's attitude at the moment made the backlog of anger in Wang Shiquan's heart finally emerge.

"What do you mean, you don't plan to talk?"

For Wang Qin, Wang Shiquan had suppressed his anger for a long time.

The person in front of him is just a subordinate of Prince Lin, he can talk to her in a friendly manner, which is already a great deal of face.

Didn't expect the other party to be so ignorant? !

Lin Qingqing remained expressionless: "Talk?"

"What do you want to talk about, my lord?"

"Or, my lord, if you want to deny that the accident happened to my Highness, it wasn't your royal family's doing?"

"Does your lord want to hide the truth?"

As Lin Qingqing spoke, the sneer on his face became more and more serious: "Your Excellency can fool those people outside, can you fool me?"

"Or does your lord think that we are all idiots in Linwangfu, and that we would be fooled so easily by your lord?"

Wang Shiquan was silent again.

Speechless.

He knew that from the very beginning, this matter was caused by their Wang family.But now that things have happened, there is no turning back for his Wang family.

"So, you really want to tear yourself apart with me?"

Lin Qingqing looked at Wang Shiquan with a calm gaze: "I'm just a small bodyguard next to His Highness, so naturally I don't have the right to tear my face apart. But..."

"I'm not qualified, but it doesn't mean we are not qualified to be in the palace!"

The tone is loud and loud.

Wang Shiquan's face was gloomy, how could he not hear the threat in these words?

Already torn face.

Wang Shiquan's expression was somber: "Of course I'm not as good as you Linwangfu, but do you really think that I will be afraid of your Linwangfu?"

Lin Qingqing said lightly: "Since you are not afraid, why did your lord look for me today?"

Wang Shiquan's face changed suddenly, and his tone was cold: "My Wang family has stood in Xunyang County for many years, not everyone can provoke..."

Speaking of this, Wang Shiquan stared at Lin Qingqing suddenly: "You don't have to quibble, I know Qin'er is in your hands... Let Qin'er go, I don't care about you!"

Lin Qingqing said indifferently: "My lord misunderstood, where is your son, it has nothing to do with me."

"Aren't you afraid of death?" Wang Shiquan's tone was full of threats.

"My lord wants to kill me?"

Wang Shiquan was expressionless: "You are just a small guard in the palace!"

Lin Qingqing didn't have a trace of fear on her face, she sneered: "My lord is right, I'm just a small guard in Linwang's mansion, whether I live or die is not worth mentioning, but you, my lord..."

Speaking of this, Lin Qingqing paused for a moment, and suddenly said expressionlessly: "This time, what happened to my Highness, who did it, my lord knows better than anyone..."

"I have reported this matter to the lord, my lord should be no stranger to the character of my lord!"

"I will investigate this matter to the end when I come to the palace, and I will never let it go!"

Wang Shiquan's face was particularly ugly, even a little pale.At this moment, the little guard in front of him actually gave him a bit of oppression.

"If my lord has nothing to do, I will take my leave first!"

After speaking, Lin Qingqing turned around, walked out of the lobby, and stopped again.

"Also... I hope you, my lord, will take care of yourself!"

After leaving this sentence, Lin Qingqing left without looking back.

Wang Shiquan was left standing in the lobby with an extremely ugly expression on his face.

At the same time, with an ugly face, there was Wang Cheng who was always silent at the side.

"grown ups……"

Wang Cheng finally couldn't help but said: "Just, let her go like this? No, keep her?"

Wang Shiquan's face was gloomy, why didn't he want to stay?

But the threat in her tone just now was already obvious.

She is just a small bodyguard in Linwang's mansion, death is not a pity.But once she died, it meant that Qin'er would definitely die.

Wang Shiquan can't take this risk!
This Lin Qingqing is just a small guard, even if she has some power, it will not affect the overall situation after all, and killing her will not help.

"The Prince's Mansion..."

Wang Shiquan was sullen and was thinking about something when suddenly there was a hurried footstep outside the door.

"grown ups!"

A figure hurriedly stepped into the lobby and delivered a piece of information.

"My lord, there is an urgent report from the border of Yanzhou, saying that there is an operation in Linzhou..."

"In the past few days in Linzhou, the states and counties have suddenly mobilized troops and horses to gather troops and station troops on the border..."

Hearing this news, Wang Shiquan's expression changed instantly.

Garrison?

Linwangfu, are you really going to send troops?

"Is this news accurate?!"

Wang Shiquan suppressed the shock in his heart, and asked in a deep voice.

The visitor lowered his head and said anxiously: "It's true, detailed information has been sent from the front, Linzhou has made a big move this time, and the leader of the army this time, I heard...Zheng Zhiming!"

Hearing this news, Wang Shiquan's face completely lost half of the color.

Zheng Zhiming? !

He is no stranger to this name.

One of Lin Hengzhong's four confidantes, this person has a mysterious identity and unfathomable martial arts.This time it was actually him who took the lead, so there is no doubt about it.

Lin Hengzhong really wanted to mobilize troops? !
Thinking of this, Wang Shiquan finally couldn't sit still.

"Come on!"

Wang Shiquan's face was extremely ugly, and he said in a deep voice: "Get ready for the carriage!"

"Where are you going?"

"Out of town!"

Wang Shiquan gritted his teeth: "I want to see Lord Governor in person!"
