Chapter 100 Oscar Abstract Award
[@贺琳: I am the most handsome man in Lianzhou, the son of a wealthy businessman (shy jpg.)]
【@Hou Xiaoxiao (Princess of Jin): So you are now in Lianzhou and have met the exiled Li Li? 】
【@贺麟: In prison, Li Li is visiting. 】
【@周居善(General Manager of the Ministry of Internal Affairs): Poof! Going to jail at the beginning? In the entertainment industry, only very popular artists can get this treatment. It really fits your status as a big star.】
What kind of black humor is this? Jiang Lili couldn't help but complain in the group: [Yes, the big star is still acting like a big shot in prison. I sent him food and he still blamed me for not sending him a pearwood table and chairs~ Hurry up and cyberbully him! ]
He Lin said quickly: [No, no, no, I was just acting! I want to maintain the original owner's narcissistic personality. The original owner had a very extreme personality before. If his temperament changes drastically now, people will definitely be suspicious. By the way, I want to polish my acting skills. ]
Jiang Lili heaved a sigh of relief after hearing He Lin's explanation. Otherwise, she would be devastated to see her once sunny and cheerful classmate become a narcissistic egomaniac: [You acted very successfully, and this year's Oscar for Abstract is definitely for you.]
【@贺麟: Li Li, please bring me that plate of boiled chicken. I’m really starving! 】
Ha, stop pretending in the group. Jiang Lili glanced at He Lin who was still maintaining his persona in the cell, and handed the bowl and chopsticks to He Lin.
Since the plate of poached chicken couldn't fit in, she hinted to He Jing to serve the dish to his cousin and ask him about the cause of his cousin's burning flower garden.
After all, her current identity is just a servant, how can she talk so much to the young master.
"Cousin, you must be hungry. I'll bring you some boiled chicken."
He Jing was carrying the dishes and was about to approach the cell pillar to whisper to He Lin when he heard hurried footsteps and a square-faced man with a sturdy appearance and a knife walked in.
He glared at the yamen runner who let He Jingjiang in: "What are you doing! Just send the food in, why are the visitors still staying here?"
As soon as the square-faced man walked in, he went straight to He Jing and stood beside him. Now the He brothers couldn't speak in secret.
The man said to He Jing, "Master He Jing, we will open the door and bring the food in to Master He Lin later."
"This is the county jail. No outsiders are allowed to stay here."
He Jing wanted to seize more opportunities: "Is it not okay for me to talk to my brother and ask about his health?"
The man didn't give him any face at all: "Mr. He, you'd better leave quickly, otherwise don't blame me for turning my back on you."
"The people in the prison are all serious criminals who have committed murder and arson. What if they offend you?"
Jiang Lili could tell that this man must have someone backing him up, so she pulled He Jing out the door and said, "The meal has been delivered, don't worry, Master He Lin won't be hungry."
He Jing looked unwilling, but now that Miss Jiang had spoken, he could only do as she said.
Not long after the two left the county jail, the third daughter of the Yun family arrived.
Miss Yun San carefully asked the square-faced man who chased He Jing away: "What did He Jing and He Lin talk about?"
The man's name was Qiu Sheng, and he was a minor official in the Li County government office. He recounted what happened in the old prison, "It was too short a time, and they only said a few words."
Miss Yun San carefully confirmed it again: "Apart from these, is there anything else?"
Qiu Sheng was very sure: "I heard from my men that He Jing wanted to ask more questions, but I rushed over in time to interrupt them and chased the He family away."
Miss Yun San breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at Qiu Sheng with some reproach: "Fortunately, they didn't get in touch, otherwise you would have suffered the consequences."
"Although He Lin is stupid and narcissistic and doesn't have the ability to ruin our plans, it's still better to be on the safe side."
Qiu Sheng flattered her, "Young lady, you are really smart. I just asked someone to send a mirror to the prison, and He Lin immediately became quiet and stopped making noises."
Miss Yun San smiled and said, "Okay, now we just have to wait for the He family to send us money."

Jiang Lili and He Jing returned to the inn. He Jing was applying a facial mask while worrying: "We went there in vain. We didn't get any information!"
"It's all He Lin's fault. He talked so much nonsense and asked for this and that. This time he has dug his own grave."
Jiang Lili shook her head: "No, look at that square-faced official. He arrived at such a good time. He was obviously prepared and didn't want us to ask anything."
He Jing was so anxious that he paced back and forth in the yard: "What should I do now? I haven't asked anything. Do I really need the Yun family to give me 100,000 taels of silver to avoid disaster?"
"Okay, okay, stop walking around. It makes me dizzy."
Escort Master Cen and his companions brought back a lot of fruits this afternoon and distributed them to Marquis Zhaoping's residence. Jiang Lili peeled a pomelo and started eating it.
He Lin had already explained the whole story to her in a private chat.
Jiang Lili said slowly, "When I brought the bowls and chopsticks to Master He Lin just now, he gave me a hint with his lips."
He Jing asked hurriedly: "What hint?"
Jiang Lili uttered three words: "Dora Flower."
"Dhula flower? Isn't this a medicinal herb that is expressly prohibited from being planted by the imperial court?"
He Jing was shocked. This datura flower is a herb that can quickly relieve pain, but the side effect is that the person who takes it will experience hallucinations and will gradually become dependent on this herb.
The imperial court prohibited the cultivation of this kind of datura flower by the public. It was only found in the palace's herb garden and was strictly controlled.
If these were the flowers that He Lin burned in the Yun family's flower garden, it would not be surprising that the Yun family was angry.
He Jing was still shocked: "But how did the Yun family have the guts to disobey the imperial order and plant the datura flower?"
After thinking about it carefully, he felt strange: "And if they were growing datura flowers, they should have tried their best to conceal this matter. Why did they make such a big fuss and arrest my cousin and send him to the county government?"
Jiang Lili felt that He Jing's thinking had become faster after being influenced by knowledge these days: "They have the guts to cry thief, which means they have already arranged a retreat."
"It may be a bit difficult for your He family to fight now."
He Lin told Jiang Lili that he accidentally overheard a secret that the Yun family was planning to exchange part of the batch of tura flowers from Li County with the tribute flowers sent by the He family to the capital, preparing to kill the He family and make them bear the crime of smuggling tura flowers under the pretext of tribute.
Time was too tight, the traitor in the He family had not been found out yet, and it was hard to guard against. There were too many links in transporting tribute, and there was no time to deploy manpower.
So he could only solve the problem from the source and burn the batch of tula flowers in Yunjiali County.
No matter what compensation the Yun family asks for, it is better than letting the He family lose their heads collectively.
He Jing's heart sank: "That's it, we're done for. We can only pay compensation, but it's not a solution to let the Yun family cause trouble all the time if the trouble continues."
