Chapter 223 The Sun family’s worries
  "The next days are when Qiu Guangri and I deal with Tian Jingyu. Once Haocheng is captured, there will be plenty of money to spend!"

Ma Ji's eyes lit up and he said playfully: "Young master is so wise! In this way, the money will be put to good use and it can be completely washed away!"

Lin Yun also smiled and nodded.

In Ma Ji's view, Lin Yun's idea was very clever.

Once the outside world learns that Lin Yun ransacked Qiu Yi's home and seized a large amount of money, his reputation will be ruined.

Who would dare to do business with Lin Yun again in the future?

After all, he dared to kill even Lord Fu Yin's son, so he would show no mercy to those dignitaries below him.

But if the money is sent directly to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the meaning is different.

The outside world will think that Lin Yun is doing things for Qiu Guangri, but this will make his status in Yucheng even more special.

"Okay! So many things have happened today, and you are tired, so go back and rest! I also want to go to Sun's house!"

Since he had reached an agreement with Sun Xuemeng last night, he naturally wanted to meet Sun Xing. He believed that if that cunning girl interfered, he would be the one who would suffer in the end.

Ma Ji asked: "Sir, Qiu Yi has just been taken away from prison, why don't you go see Mr. Fu Yin first?"

"Hmph! This old guy is very narrow-minded now, give him some time to calm down first!"

After saying this, Lin Yun went straight to Sun Mansion.

Ma Ji could only order the soldiers to bring a large amount of money back to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

……

Sun Mansion.

Sun Xing also stayed up all night.

Especially after learning what happened in the Fengdu camp in the middle of the night last night, and Qiu Yi forcing Qiu Guangri to go to the palace in the morning.

Not to mention him, all the dignitaries in Yucheng were frightened.

For these people, only a stable and safe environment is suitable for them to make a fortune quietly.

But today's Yucheng is full of trees and grass.

At this moment, Sun Xing was sitting on a chair in the study, playing with a string of beads in his hand, twisting them absently.

This string of beads was given to him by his eldest brother in the capital.

As we all know, only the fifth-rank civil servants and fourth-rank military attachés of the current dynasty are qualified to wear court beads.

But such a string of beads is made from a variety of worldly treasures.

It can be said that it not only represents the noble status of the official, but also has great value in itself.

Sun Xing is not an official, but he can have such a string, which shows that his Sun family is indeed not simple.

At this time, Sun Xuemeng stepped in and said, "Second uncle, we just got the news!"

"Then Qiu Yi was rescued by a group of mysterious people! Lin Yunzheng led Manager Ma to raid Qiu Yi's home! It seems that Lord Fu Yin is serious this time!"

Sun Xing immediately stood up and said, "Let me ask you, can you find out the origin of the group of soldiers and horses that Lin Yun brought into the city this morning?"

Not only Sun Xing was curious about this matter, but also the dignitaries in Yucheng wanted to find out.

After all, Lin Yun had given them the impression that he was an honest businessman.

But this time, a group of elite soldiers were suddenly brought in, and they went straight to Yucheng Mansion.

Apparently he came to protect Qiu Guangri's safety.

This made everyone in Yucheng speculate about the relationship between Lin Yun and Qiu Guangri.

Sun Xuemeng curled his lips and said, "Does this still need to be investigated? Lin Yun arranged for me to stay in a barracks last night, and there were all elite soldiers inside! These people that the second uncle mentioned should be them!"

"What? This... this kid actually raised such a private army? What is he going to do? Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Sun Xing looked surprised.

"You didn't ask me, either? Besides, aren't they just a group of elite soldiers? What's so great! The Niubei Village where Lin Yun is located is a land of war and chaos, so it's normal to have its own armed forces!"

"You know nothing! This kid already controls a large amount of food and grass, and if he raises a group of elite soldiers, can't you imagine what he will do?"

Sun Xing's face turned a little pale.

Sun Xuemeng suddenly realized it and said in surprise: "Could it be that...he still wants to revolt?"

After being reminded by her second uncle, she suddenly thought that the three ladies in Lin Yun's family were all guilty.

Especially Ye Wanqing and Oona. These two women are both civil and military. If they become Lin Yun's right-hand men, they may really have problems.

The uncle and nephew stared at each other, but neither dared to continue talking.

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Master, Mr. Lin is here! He's right outside the house!"

Sun Xing's heart skipped a beat when he heard his servant's report.

Sun Xuemeng said: "Second uncle, let me receive him! Just don't show your face yet!"

Sun Xing shook his head slowly and said: "Do you think Mr. Lin is a fool? He must come to see me this time! We don't have to be too humble! Go and invite him in!"

Sun Xing sat back in his chair and prepared a pot of hot tea.

Sun Xuemeng then turned and left.

When they arrived outside the gate, they saw Lin Yun standing on the steps of the gate stretching with his back to her.

Sun Xuemeng simply leaned against the door frame, holding his shoulders with his hands, and said with a smile: "Master Lin has so many things to do, why are you suddenly free to come to my Sun Mansion today?"

Lin Yun then turned around, wiped away the tears that overflowed from the corners of his eyes, and said with a smile, "What? You don't welcome me?"

"Of course I don't dare! Mr. Lin has done such a big thing today! How can there be any force in Yucheng that dares to resist Mr. Lin now? Please invite me quickly!"

Lin Yun then stepped through the door.

Walking in the inner courtyard of the Sun Mansion, Lin Yun did not mention what happened this morning at all, but looked around as if it was his first time at the Sun Mansion.

Sun Xuemeng felt angry when he saw Lin Yun pretending to be stupid and asked, "Master Lin, don't you have nothing to say?"

"Say! But I have nothing to say to you! Take me to see your second uncle!"

Lin Yun didn't hide it and told the truth directly.

Sun Xuemeng pouted angrily and said, "You have nothing to say to me, so why are you here, Mr. Lin? My second uncle left early! He's not at home at all!"

Lin Yun sneered: "Who are you fooling?" Do you think I know nothing? Don't talk nonsense, I didn't sleep all night, and now I'm sleepy! '

"Huh!" Sun Xuemeng could only lead the way quickly, but he was a little nervous in his heart.

He was just joking, but Lin Yun's answer just now was thought-provoking.

He actually knew that his second uncle had not gone out. Could that mean that the Sun family was under surveillance?
  Thinking of this, deep worry appeared on Sun Xuemeng's pretty face.

Soon, the two entered the study.

sun Young Master is just right!"

Lin Yun's eyes lit up, he sat down unceremoniously, bent down and took a gentle sniff, and it turned out to be a refreshing fragrance.

"It's Mr. Sun who understands me best! I'm a little sleepy now! Thank you very much!"

As he said this, he picked up the tea cup and took a sip. It was immediately fragrant in his mouth and sweet in his throat.
