Chapter 99 There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain

Just leave!

Lin Congli quickly packed up his things and set off under the moonlight.

Lin Zhiqing and the other three sent the person to the city gate before returning to the Lin family.

"Did you see it just now? I took a nap and didn't realize that leaving the city would require such strict inspection?" Lin Yangyang curled her lips.

Lin Zhiqing and Lin Shian looked at each other, and they both knew very well that the inspection was not tightened suddenly, but was tightened only for the Lin family members.

Since the higher-ups want to wipe out the Lin family, they certainly won't tolerate anyone running away.

Only after learning that Lin Congli was going to Bianliang did the soldiers guarding the city gate let him pass.

I believe this news will appear in the palace soon.

The soldiers did not stop them because they had no reasonable reason, but they definitely wanted to know the Lin family's movements.

The Lin family had previously experienced a major purge, and Lin Zhiqing took the opportunity of rectifying the escaped slaves to get rid of spies from all sides.

Although it is not known whether the cleanup was thorough, no outsiders would know the whereabouts of the Lin family in public. As for whether there was a "tail" in secret, no one knew.

At least now, everyone in the Lin family except Lin Congyan is temporarily free.

After listening to the two people's explanation, Lin Yangyang felt a tightness in her chest, but she suddenly remembered what Lin Zhiqing had just said: "Hey, Sister Qing, didn't you say before that you had another task for me?"

"That's right." Lin Zhiqing smiled and said, "Cousin, you are very skilled in martial arts, so climbing over the wall shouldn't be a problem, right?"

"Of course that's no problem! Take the wall in my yard, for example. It wasn't that high originally." Lin Yangyang walked briskly, hands behind his back, and began to recall the past:
"The little beggars outside often came to play with me. Every time I sneaked out, my father would raise the wall higher until it couldn't be raised any higher. I could still easily climb over it."

She raised her head, her words full of pride.

Lin Shian also remembered what happened at that time, and a smile appeared on his face: "I was really angry at that time, and I almost broke your leg."

Lin Zhiqing thought of the scene where Lin Congli was seriously asking someone to build a wall and found it funny: "Cousin, can you take me over the wall?"

Lin Yangyang was stunned: "No, Sister Qing, do you still have this hobby?"

Lin Zhiqing blinked: "How about trying it now?"

As soon as Lin Zhiqing finished speaking, Lin Yangyang disappeared from the spot in an instant.

The next moment, Lin Zhiqing felt dizzy and her toes left the ground. Before she could scream, she stood on the ground again.

To be more precise, he was standing on the ground outside the main hall.

"Sister, Zhiqing, are you okay?" Lin Shian's worried voice came from the other side of the wall.

"That's nothing, what could possibly happen?" Lin Yangyang patted Lin Zhiqing's shoulder and said, "Right, Sister Qing?"

Lin Zhiqing resisted the urge to vomit. No, why didn't she know that climbing over the wall was so exciting before?
Lin Zhiqing was stunned for a moment when he felt the real martial arts for the first time.

Lin Shian, who was standing on the opposite side of the wall, tiptoed and quickly stood in front of the two of them.

His movements were slightly slower than Lin Yangyang's, and he lacked a sense of lightness when landing.

It seems that what the Lin family said is true, and my cousin Lin Yangyang's martial arts skills are even better.

In this way, she felt relieved.

"Cousin, take me to the Ministry of Justice tonight and we will go look for the body of Concubine Chun!" Lin Zhiqing's tone was filled with excitement.

"Ah?" Before Lin Yangyang could say anything, Lin Shi'an opened his mouth wide: "So you've been planning this for so long tonight, are you planning to visit the Ministry of Justice at night?"

"What else?" Lin Zhiqing blinked. "You went to great lengths to help me distract my uncle, and I thought you knew my purpose." Lin Shi'an immediately waved his hand. "I thought you wanted to go to the residence of Tongyi Liu Mang to take a look. I didn't expect you to be so bold."

"No!" He categorically denied Lin Zhiqing's idea.

Lin Yangyang was unhappy: "Shi'an, how come you are even more timid than me?"

"Isn't it just the Ministry of Justice? Isn't it just a corpse? What's there to be afraid of?"

Auntie, it would be strange if she was braver than you, right? Lin Shian looked at the two women in front of him, and his mind was about to explode:
"What do you think the Ministry of Justice is?"

"Isn't it just a house? It's a bigger house at most. Can't I get in?" Lin Yangyang put her hands on her hips, her tail almost raised to the sky.

"Yes!" Lin Zhiqing interrupted behind Lin Yangyang.

Seeing that he couldn't win the argument with the two of them, Lin Shi'an turned around and went into the yard: "I said no, it means no!"

Lin Yangyang wanted to follow and argue with Lin Shian, but Lin Zhiqing rolled his eyes and grabbed her wrist.

The two of them exchanged glances and understood each other's thoughts.

On the other side, Lin Shian's tone was quite serious: "The Ministry of Justice is heavily guarded and has many jailers. Concubine Chun's body must have been stored away."

"You two weak women must not go to that kind of place. If I had known that you were planning to go to the Ministry of Justice, I would never have persuaded my uncle to return to Bianliang."

"There will always be a way out when you reach the mountain. This method is too risky. Please wait a little longer..."

Lin Shian was talking, but there was no response. He then realized that it was too quiet.

An ominous premonition filled his heart, and Lin Shian turned around suddenly.

No one is empty.

……

"Sister Qing, how is it? Does this dress fit me well?" Lin Yangyang sat in the carriage, pointing at her nightgown with an expression that looked like she was asking for praise.

"Cousin, how come you are so well-equipped?" Lin Zhiqing noticed that the cuffs of her clothes were badly worn, which meant that her cousin must have often sneaked out in the past.

But she couldn't imagine what kind of occasion would require a nightgown.

My cousin waved her hand as if she was not surprised. "That's nothing. My dad never let me go out, so I would sneak out at night."

"Speaking of Shengjing City, I'm definitely more familiar with it than you."

It is indeed much more familiar.

Even this "equipment" was dug out by Lin Yangyang from under a big willow tree beside the moat in the west of the city.

If she hadn't assured him that it was okay to wear, Lin Zhiqing would have been a little hesitant.

But those complicated dresses are indeed not suitable for going to the Ministry of Justice.

Seeing Lin Yangyang eager to try, Lin Zhiqing's mentality also improved a lot.

The two soon arrived near the Ministry of Justice. Although it was almost midnight, the Ministry of Justice was still brightly lit.

Looking in from the outside, everything is clear.

Lin Yangyang scratched her head. "Sister Qing, I have a small question. Do you know where the Ministry of Justice's morgue is?"

The mortuary, also called the morgue in Lin Zhiqing's previous world, is, as the name suggests, a place where corpses are placed.

Lin Zhiqing shook his head honestly: "I don't know."
