Chapter 301
After talking about this, the topic turned to how Lin Shuang got out of the prison.

It was impossible for Lin Shuang, who was arrested at the time, to have 100 taels of silver on him, and before Meng Ran wanted to stuff money in to visit Lin Shuang, the guards were not allowed.

Except for him, no one knew about Lin Shuang's arrest.

How Lin Shuang came back with all his beard and tail like this is a miracle in itself.

Lin Shuang hadn't mentioned Qingying's matter to Meng Ran before, and he didn't know how to explain it now, so he just said that he happened to meet someone he knew before and had some friendship with the county magistrate, and happened to see her who was being interrogated, so Helped myself out of trouble.

Meng Ran didn't think too much about it, he just lamented that there are still many good people, and he was wronged for Lin Shuang. It was obvious that Liu's family was the first to deal with the cruelty, but because he was rich, he was able to get away with it so easily.

However, after Lin Shuang returned safely, Meng Ran and Zhou Ru felt relieved.

Although the things are sold, but the money is still there, and the things can be bought again, Lin Shuang is not worried about this, but discusses with Meng Ran that he might as well take advantage of this time to combine the two into one family, and simply flip over and build a bigger house , Reinforce the surroundings, so that the two elderly people can live more at ease.

Lin Shuang's idea was very simple. The house where the two old people live is actually not big. Originally, Lin Shuang was thinking about wanting them to extend the yard. Anyway, he and his son don't live long.

She had made such a suggestion to Meng Ran before, but Meng Ran was also stubborn and refused to agree to anything.

Since there was such an opportunity this time, Lin Shuang vacated the house, and the place where he lives now is a bit dilapidated. The most important point is that he only needs to have a room when he comes back in the future, and he can still be with Uncle Meng and Aunt Zhou. It is more convenient to live closer.

After coaxing and grinding, Lin Shuang finally got the consent of the two elders.

It just so happened that there were few things and the house was empty, and there was money, so Lin Shuang didn't delay, and called the mason and carpenter directly.

The construction of the house officially started. Lin Shuang found a small inn not far from the west city for Meng Ran and Zhou Ru. This inn was run by a farmer with some spare money, so the price was not expensive, but the place was small.

But Meng Ran and Zhou Ru didn't live long, and they moved back after the house was remodeled.

In the past few days, Lin Shuang also took the opportunity to finish the long gowns for Lian Ji, Bai Zhi and Mai Dong, and ordered the money and furniture. When the house is ready, it will be fine as long as Meng Ran sends the things in.

Finally, there is nothing more to do, the only regret in my heart is that I went to the prison for nothing and failed to make Liu Wei suffer.

Driving a carriage with her son Zijun, Lin Shuang walked out of the gate of the west city and looked in the direction of Luling Village: She went back this time, but it didn't mean she would let Liuwei go like this. Calm things down, as long as you live your life in peace and stability, but there are always some people who don't see her well.

That being the case, when she comes back later, she won't be so polite to them.

On this side, Lin Shuang left the West City, and on the other side, Qingying went back to report.

"Master, the things have been delivered to her."

"Yeah." The other party sat upright, without raising his eyelids, just looking at a guqin intently, and then asked, "Did you say anything?"

"No...didn't say anything." Qingying's hand tightened slightly, hesitated for a moment, and took out the jade hairpin from her arms: "Master, she was in the prison of the Xicheng County Government for something, I rescued her, originally she wanted to thank her subordinates for not wanting the jade tree leaves, but later she used this jade hairpin to pay for the ransom."

In fact, this jade hairpin was given to Qing Ying by Lin Shuang. After all, Qing Ying paid the ransom, not in exchange, and Lin Shuang only thought that the jade leaf was a reward, so he didn't care too much.

But when asked just now, Qingying had already angered her master because of what happened last time, after thinking about it this time, she still told the other party about Yuchai.

"Oh?" The other party raised an eyebrow, motioning for Qingying to hand over Yuchai.

Qingying respectfully handed the jade hairpin to her master, who turned it around in her hand.

Although the jade is not bad outside, it is not a special top grade. Normally, such a jade hairpin would not be regarded by him at all, but thinking of someone's indifferent appearance, he took the jade hairpin directly. Get up, casually point to the guqin in front of you: "It's well done, try this 'Feiquan'."

"This is the Feiquan Qin?" Although Qingying noticed this piano before, she thought it looked very ordinary, but the piano that can be touched by her master should not be ordinary, but she did not expect it to be "Feiquan Qin" .

Qingying quickly knelt down and kowtowed to Zhao Jing who was seated: "My subordinates thank you, Second Prince."

That's right, the man in front of him is the current Second Prince Zhao Jing, who is also Qingying's master.

On weekdays, this second prince seemed to look very elegant, he was not playing with flowers and birds, or listening to music and piano every day, but in fact, Zhao Jing's heart was not as peaceful as it appeared on the surface.

He and the emperor, Zhao Ying, were born only one month apart. Because his mother and concubine were favored by the emperor, he was loved by the late emperor since he was a child. Moreover, since he was a child, Zhao Jing was slightly better than the eldest prince Zhao Ying in terms of academics and martial arts, but because of Zhao Ying He is the queen's son, so he sat firmly on the crown prince's position, and because the former emperor was seriously ill by accident, he could only watch the throne be seated by the eldest prince Zhao Ying before he was full-fledged.

Zhao Jing was unwilling, but his mother and concubine were sentimental. After the late emperor passed away, she ignored him and only thought about the late emperor day and night, and she went away within two years.

Without a layer of reliance, Zhao Jing could only bear with it, otherwise, even if the young emperor Zhao Ying didn't think much about these brothers, it was hard to guarantee that the Empress Dowager Liu would be suspicious and spy on them, so he couldn't show any emotions and ambitions, as long as He is still the second prince, and now that they are still young, he has the opportunity to deploy little by little, and slowly eat away, and one day the supreme throne will be his.

Therefore, Zhao Jing developed his influence a little bit, and he still has many people like Qingying, who are arranged outside to collect information for him.

As for the treasure map that Qingying was looking for, it was also a pavement for raising troops one day in the future. If you want to accumulate the strength to be able to sit on the throne, money is absolutely indispensable.

Even if he is the Second Prince, if he wants to get a large sum of money as soon as possible, not to mention it is not easy, he is also worried that the emperor and queen mother will be wary, and even lead to death.

As long as he does everything secretly, sooner or later he will succeed.

"You did a good job this time, but don't relax in the future, and don't leak the treasure map to me."

"The subordinates will definitely keep their mouths shut."

After saying this, the second prince Zhao Jing got up and waved his sleeves: "Let's play a piece with this 'Feiquan' in a while!"
