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

Yan Lingxiao was silent for a moment, as if he was thinking about the ins and outs of this matter. Then, he turned his head to look at Ming Liu and slowly said, "This matter is not simple. There must be a bigger conspiracy behind it. Ming Liu, you must send someone to investigate immediately and find out the truth behind it."

After saying that, he looked at the scroll in his hand intently, as if nothing had happened. Ming Liu couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the prince is really an extraordinary person, his majesty and depth always make people feel awe and admiration. At this time, he is still so leisurely admiring the scroll in his hand, not knowing what it is.

Seeing that Ming Liu had no intention of leaving, Yan Lingxiao frowned and looked at Ming Liu, with a hint of doubt in his eyes: "Is there anything else?"

Ming Liu hesitated for a moment, then took a deep breath and said, "Your Highness, there is one more important thing. Our informants have sent us news that not only was the Grand Tutor's Mansion robbed last night, but Lin Shengyang's two daughters were also frightened and reportedly fainted."

Yan Lingxiao's eyes became sharper: "Fainted, what's the reason?"

"I just heard that the Grand Tutor's Mansion was haunted last night, and everyone in the mansion heard terrifying noises."

Ming Liu continued, "Lin Yueshu became crazy after waking up in the morning. She didn't let anyone get close to her and just kept shouting, 'Don't come over, don't kill me.' Although Lin Xiuqing was also frightened, her condition was relatively better and she is currently resting."

Yan Lingxiao was silent for a moment, with a thoughtful expression on his face: "The things behind this are getting more and more complicated. The Grand Tutor's Mansion was robbed, and Lin Shengyang's daughter was frightened again. Ming Liu, who do you think is behind this, pretending to be a ghost to scare them?"

Ming Liu shook his head to indicate that he didn't know. He continued, "By the way, Your Majesty, Lin Shengyang did not report the fact that his daughter fainted from fear to the Emperor, and he also ordered the people in the palace not to disclose the matter."

Ming Liu asked doubtfully, "Your Highness, there is something I don't understand. Why did Lin Shengyang conceal the fact that his daughters were frightened and unconscious? It doesn't seem to do him any good. Doesn't he want to seek justice for his two daughters?"

Hearing this, Yan Lingxiao sneered, "You hit the nail on the head, Ming Liu. Lin Shengyang has always valued his reputation and status. If people knew that his daughter had gone insane for some unknown reason, it would undoubtedly be a huge blow to his reputation. His political enemies would definitely take this opportunity to laugh at him, and they might even use this to attack him."

Ming Liu nodded, showing his understanding: "So that's how it is. Lin Shengyang is worried that his political status will be affected."

Yan Lingxiao continued, "Not only that, Lin Shengyang may still be investigating this matter secretly, trying to find out the truth behind it. If this matter is made public, it will undoubtedly bring great obstacles to his investigation. Therefore, he chose to conceal it, on the one hand to protect his reputation and status, and on the other hand to be able to conduct the investigation smoothly. Moreover, Lin Shengyang has to rely on his two daughters to consolidate his position, otherwise do you think Lin Shengyang would be willing to work for the prince?"

After hearing this, Ming Liu was full of admiration for Yan Lingxiao's insight: "Your Majesty is wise and your analysis is thorough."

Yan Lingxiao waved his hand, signaling Ming Liu to leave. Just as Ming Liu turned around and prepared to leave, Yan Lingxiao's voice sounded again: "Ming Liu, do you know what arrangements Lin Shengyang has for Lin Yueshu?"

Ming Liu paused for a moment, then replied, "Your Highness, I have received news that Lin Shengyang plans to send Lin Yueshu to a villa in the countryside in a few days."

Yan Lingxiao frowned slightly: "Oh? So anxious?"

Ming Liu explained: "It was announced that Lin Yueshu had caught a cold and was seriously ill, so she needed to rest. The countryside villa had a quiet environment and was suitable for recuperation, so Lin Shengyang decided to send her there."

When Yan Lingxiao heard that Lin Shengyang had sent Lin Yueshu to a country villa, he immediately understood. He knew Lin Shengyang very well, and that he valued the interests of the family more than anything else. He was so eager to send Lin Yueshu away, obviously because he thought she was no longer useful, and might even become a burden or risk.

Yan Lingxiao couldn't help but sneer. This Lin Shengyang was so ruthless that he could even sacrifice his own daughter for the sake of the family's interests.

Lin Shengyang sent Lin Yueshu away, seemingly for Lin Yueshu's own good, but in fact it was a realistic choice. In the face of power and family interests, personal emotions are often insignificant.
