The Cold-Faced God of War's Favored Concubine Is Not to Be Tried

Yan Lingxiao looked at Feng Yanan's reaction, his heart full of tenderness. He knew she was shy, so he didn't say much, just hugged her tightly in his arms. His heartbeat and her heartbeat intertwined, like a beautiful movement.

After a while, Yan Lingxiao said softly: "After lunch, I will take you back." Feng Yanan nodded slightly. She knew that she could not refuse his tenderness and care.

Inside the Grand Tutor's Mansion, the atmosphere today was completely different from the warm and ambiguous atmosphere in Prince Zhan's Mansion. It had already become a mess. At noon, the sun shone through the window lattice into the house, and mottled light and shadows danced on the wall.

Lin Shengyang slowly opened his eyes, his mind still a little dizzy. He glanced at his wife Zuo Xuemei beside him, her eyes were red and swollen from crying, tears had not yet dried, and there were tear stains all over them. This scene made Lin Shengyang's heart sink suddenly, and he woke up instantly.

"What's wrong? What happened?" Lin Shengyang's voice was filled with a hint of anxiety and uneasiness.

Zuo Xuemei looked at him and moved her lips, but she didn't speak immediately. There was a hint of hesitation and pain in her eyes, as if she was struggling with how to speak.

Seeing her reaction, Lin Shengyang couldn't help but feel an ominous premonition. He recalled the theft in the warehouse last night, and his heart was throbbing. He couldn't believe it was true and thought he was just having a nightmare.

However, when he saw Zuo Xuemei's red eyes from crying, he knew that all this was true. His heart sank suddenly, and a feeling of anger and frustration surged in his heart.

"Was the warehouse really stolen?" There was a slight tremor in Lin Shengyang's voice.

Zuo Xuemei nodded, tears welling up in her eyes again. She choked and said, "Yes, Master, don't you remember? All the valuables in the warehouse were stolen. I... I don't know what to do."

Lin Shengyang clenched his fists, a fierce look flashed in his eyes. He was determined to find the thief and make him pay.

In the Grand Tutor's Mansion, people were in a state of panic, as if shrouded in a haze. The invasion of the "thieves" made everyone in the mansion feel uneasy. They were worried about their own safety and the loss of their family's property. At this critical moment, the sisters Lin Yueshu and Lin Xiuqing were still not seen getting up.

At noon, Zuo Xuemei sat in front of Lin Shengyang's bed and fed him medicine. After Lin Shengyang drank the medicine, he looked outside the door and asked softly: "Why don't I see Yueshu and Xiuqing today? They usually get up early! And there was so much noise in the mansion last night. They can't be sleeping so deeply."

Zuo Xuemei began to feel something was wrong when she heard this. She knew that her two precious daughters usually went to bed early and got up early, so how could they not get up yet? Moreover, there was a lot of noise when the warehouse was robbed last night, and it was impossible for them to sleep so deeply that they didn't notice it at all.

She put down the bowl in her hand, stood up, and said to the maid beside her: "Go and see what's wrong with Yueshu and Xiuqing. Why haven't they gotten up yet?"

She turned around and picked up the bowl to feed Lin Shengyang the medicine, and comforted Lin Shengyang: "Master, maybe you were woken up last night and didn't sleep well. You are catching up on your sleep now!" Although she said this, she felt uneasy in her heart. She didn't believe it herself, let alone Lin Shengyang.

The maid responded and left in a hurry. After a while, she came back in a hurry with a panicked look on her face: "Madam, it's bad, the second and third young ladies have fainted!"

Zuo Xuemei was shocked when she heard this, and she almost dropped the bowl in her hand. She asked hurriedly, "What happened? Why did they faint?"

The maid panted and tried to calm herself down: "I don't know either. I went to the third young lady's room first. The door was closed when I got there. I called several times but no one answered. Later, I pushed the door open and found the second and third young ladies lying on the ground, unconscious. I touched their foreheads and found that they were both burning hot, as if they had a fever."

Hearing the news that both his daughters had fainted, Lin Shengyang, who was lying on the bed, sat up instantly, his face turned pale and anxious. He hurriedly put on his shoes and got out of bed, his steps seemed a little staggering, but his eyes were full of worry for his daughters.

Upon seeing this, Zuo Xuemei immediately stepped forward to support him, her tone full of concern: "Master, you just woke up and your body has not recovered yet. Take it slow. You must take care of yourself so that you can better protect your daughters." Her words revealed deep worry, but she still tried to remain calm and tried to give Lin Shengyang some comfort.

Lin Shengyang nodded. Although he was anxious, he tried to calm himself down with the help of his wife. He ordered the maid to call the palace doctor immediately, and he and Zuo Xuemei hurried to Lin Xiuqing's yard.
