Chapter 33
"Girl, it was the servant who neglected his duty and hurt you today, please punish."

After returning to the mansion, Qixi supported Lin Yu to sit on the couch, then bent her knees and knelt down, her voice full of remorse.

"It's not your fault, it's my own carelessness."

Lin Yu stretched out his hand to help Qixi as he said, "Get up quickly, it's because I didn't check for a while."

Qi Xi's tears fell down and her voice choked up, "It's all my fault on the servant girl. If the servant girl worked harder and followed the girl to chase the man in black today, she wouldn't be able to hurt the girl."

"All right!"

Lin Yu smiled, and then looked a little cold, "Since I feel that I have made a mistake, I will make up for it and find out who the man in black is."

Qixi stood up, her eyes gleamed fiercely, "I'll go and investigate now, servant girl."

Seeing that she was leaving in a hurry, Lin Yu stopped her, "Why are you in a hurry? I haven't finished my sentence yet, when will you be so impatient?"

"That Li Dong, go and question him carefully. The person he met at Jingyun Tea House today must not be Hong Qi's person, maybe it is the man in black."

The corners of Lin Yu's lips pressed down, "Also hide him in another place at night, don't put him in the woodshed, and don't move the guards."

Qixi responded one by one, and after a while said: "Girl, can that servant leave now?"

Lin Yu waved his hand, "Go."

Qi Xi went out quickly and called Ban Xia, "You go and wait on the girl first, and then stand guard at the door. If the girl calls for someone, you can go in again."

Lin Yu listened to Qixi's orderly instructions in the room, leaning on the couch, looking down at his wound that had just been bandaged, his eyes darkened.

Prince's Mansion!
What is the relationship between the man in black and the prince?Could it be that Gu Changyuan is really with the prince?

But in the dream it was clearly the third prince's rebellion!
And Fu Yu, Fu Yu is also lying to her?
Thinking of it this way, Lin Yu's whole body is full of cold air. If so, she really needs to think about it.

What is it about their Changning Hou Mansion that deserves their painstaking efforts to make so many people stare at it!
Lin Yu poured himself a cup of cold tea and poured it into his stomach. He calmed down a bit and began to reflect on himself.

Since she had a nightmare more than half a month ago, the book and its contents have affected her and her judgment.

Especially Gu Changyuan's abnormality, Lin Baozhu's stupidity, every point coincides with the plot in the book so that she firmly believes in it.

Convinced that the third prince is the mastermind behind the scenes, the prince and Fu Yu are innocent, but...is this really the case?
Should she infer what happened later based on the non-existent book, or should she rely on the evidence she saw with her own eyes.

That night, Lin Yu lay in bed with insomnia, she had to figure this out, otherwise she would have trouble sleeping and eating.

The man in black jumped off the beam, then knelt on the ground, lowering his voice, "Master, Hong Qi is dead."

The man in the boa robe was peeling kumquats without even raising his eyelids, "Good job, let's go down first."

The man in black left quietly, except for a drop of blood on the ground, which made the man frown uncontrollably.

"It's dirty!"

The man shouted, "Fu'an!"

Soon someone came in, wiped the ground clean, and finally lit incense in the golden beast stove to dissipate the smell in the house.

Only then did the man's brows relax, and he wiped his hands with a handkerchief, "Order me, Wanfu Gambling House is useless, copy it tomorrow."

Fu An was stunned for a moment, "His Royal Highness, most of the income in our monthly account comes from Wanfu Gambling Shop, now we copied it, will it?"

"fool!"

The man kicked Fu An's lower abdomen, stood up and brushed off his robe.

"When will you lose money? Without Wanfu Casino, Wanxiang Casino, and Wanjin Casino, if someone finds out about us, do you want me to die?"

Enduring the pain in his heart, Fu An knelt down on the ground, "Yes, it's because the slave didn't think well, so I'll send someone to send a letter to Dali Temple right now."

"What letter?"

The man narrowed his eyes halfway, "Are you stupid or Dali Sisi is stupid? You want the whole world to know that this hall did it?"

Fu An didn't dare to speak, "Your Highness means"

"fool."

The man's thin lips parted slightly, "Didn't there be a woman who wanted to find the Yamen because her husband was forced to death by Wanfu Casino?"

Fu An nodded, "Yes, but this matter has been suppressed by Hong Qi, and it has not caused any impact."

The man casually picked up the book on the table, "Now Hong Qi is dead."

Hong Qi is dead!
Then there is no one to suppress this matter, Fu'an is finally blessed to the heart, and keeps up with His Royal Highness's thoughts.

"I understand, I understand. Your Highness is really smart. In this way, the matter of Wanfu Gambling House has nothing to do with His Highness. No matter how hard we investigate, His Highness cannot be found."

Hearing Fu'an's flattery, the man didn't even have a smile on his face. No matter how smart he is, it's nothing that he can do with the third child in front of his father.

"Also, that Li Dong in Lin's family is trying to find a way to silence him."

In the middle of the night, Lin Yu was lying on the bed and still couldn't sleep. Suddenly, the fire outside burst into the sky, and he didn't know who shouted in the panic.

"It's not good, it's out of water!"

Lin Yu got up suddenly, and there was a sound from outside, "Girl, the firewood room is flooded for some reason."

Lin Yu didn't speak, just went to get the coat on the shelf, Ban Xia helped to tie the belt, and took another cloak.

"It's cold outside, girl, put on these too."

Lin Yu said 'hmm', Qixi didn't come back, Ban Xia was serving tonight, she walked quickly to the backyard with her shoes on, there was a lot of movement, even Mrs. Lin was alarmed.

"Okay, why did it go out of water?"

Lin Baozhu also had a red nose, standing beside Mrs. Lin, "Did the fire in the back kitchen burn down the woodshed?"

Listening to the two talking, Lin Yu took two steps forward, "Grandmother."

Then he looked at Steward Liu and Chief Guard Wang Can who were directing the firefighting.

"How? Are there any casualties?"

The chief guard knew what Lin Yu was asking, "At this time, there is no one in the backyard, and the fire was quickly controlled and did not spread to other places."

Liu Guanjia, who was next to him, said: "The area burned is not large, but the woodshed and kitchen are unusable and have to be repaired, which is a considerable expense."

Lin Yu nodded, "Pay 1 taels of silver from the treasury in the mansion first, and then come to me if it is not enough."

"For the meals in the mansion these few days, go to Wanbao Building to order some. How long can the kitchen be repaired at least?"

Butler Liu was a little embarrassed, "It will take at least half a month, and the meals in Wanbaolou will cost at least six to seven thousand taels in this half a month."

"We don't have much money in our store account during this time. If this continues, our mansion may not be able to survive the rent collection in June. The girl has to think of a way."

After hearing this, Lin Yu's heart was clouded. She was busy with Lin Baozhu and Gu Changyuan's affairs, and neglected the general affairs of the mansion. She didn't expect that there was not much money in the account now.

"I see. I'll check the shop tomorrow morning and think of other ways."

Thinking of something, Lin Yu suddenly asked: "I remember that on Lin Yunjin's birthday a month ago, didn't my grandmother give me a title deed for a shop selling antiques?"

"That shop is making a lot of money every day, isn't it even enough to cover the expenses of the mansion for two months?"

Butler Liu frothed, "That shop makes a lot of money, at least 1000 taels of silver a month, but the second son asked for the land deed of the shop back three days ago."

"Tell me that this is a birthday gift from the Wang family to the second son. He will manage the shop by himself in the future, and the money he earns will naturally not be entered into the public account."
