He quickly ordered, "Send some more people to find out the whereabouts of the Marquis' wife. No matter if they cheat or rob her, they must bring her back to the City Lord's Mansion!"
"Yes!" Fang Rui quickly took the order and left.
He hurried outside and went to check Lin Yiwan's information himself.
When I learned that her parents died when she was young, I couldn't help but be shocked. She was an orphan with such a pitiful life experience.
But when she looked down again, she found that her mother's body was not found at all. Could it be that she was not dead?
After a moment's silence, he personally led people to the scene to investigate.
This investigation actually allowed him to find a clue.
Fifteen years ago, a wealthy family in the city picked up a mentally retarded woman from outside. She was very beautiful, but she could not remember her identity, spoke incoherently, and was very crazy.
The rich businessman took pity on her and kept her in his backyard.
After Fang Rui learned about this situation, he did not hesitate and directly kidnapped the person back to the City Lord's Mansion.
After seeing her, Ye Tianqing was also amazed at her beauty.
He looked at Fang Rui suspiciously: "Do you think she could be Lin Yiwan's mother? How could such a coincidence happen in this world?"
Fang Rui lowered his voice and said, "Wouldn't it be known if the City Lord asked someone to verify it? Logically speaking, the Lin family's servants from back then should still be there, right?"
Ye Tian nodded lightly: "I have heard of this. When Doctor Lin lost his daughter and son-in-law, he dismissed his servants. Why don't you send someone to look for them and see if you can identify them?"
Fang Rui replied respectfully, "I've already sent someone to look for her. It'll just take some time, but that won't stop us from making use of her!"
Ye Tianqing asked in confusion: "What do you want to use her for?"
Fang Rui lowered his voice and replied, "Use her to lure Lin Yiwan into our City Lord's Mansion!"
Ye Tianqing's eyes lit up. This was indeed a good plan.
He originally thought that Lin Yiwan was extremely intelligent, otherwise, his daughter and his in-laws would not have all fallen into her hands.
Now that he has this crazy woman, he might actually get a surprise.
He said quickly, "Send her a message. The city lord wants her, the fish, to take the bait herself!"
At this time, Lin Yiwan didn't know that Ye Tianqing had woven a net for her with his own hands. She was looking forward to Zhan Yan coming down from Xiliang Mountain.
The flood has been flowing for three days and three nights, and it is said that the cliff that Eagle Town is against has been submerged to the middle of the mountain.
At this time, Fang Qingshan walked in happily from outside and said, "Sister, your uncle has sent you a letter from the capital!"
"Uncle?" Lin Yiwan was quite surprised.
She informed her uncle when she came, so he shouldn't be worried.
She tore open the letter, but her expression became more and more serious.
Fang Qingshan, who was standing next to him, was a little nervous. What was written in the letter that made him so nervous?
After finally waiting for her to finish reading, he asked with a worried look on his face, "Sister, what did our uncle say? I see you look a little unhappy. What happened?"
Lin Yiwan was silent for a moment before she slowly spoke: "Brother, my mother might still be alive in this world, and she has fallen into Ye Tianqing's hands!"
Fang Qingshan was stunned. This was too unbelievable. Hadn't the girl from the Lin family been dead for more than ten years?
That year, the couple went to the south to visit relatives. They encountered bandits on the way and while fleeing in a hurry, they both accidentally fell off a cliff.
It is said that the son-in-law fell miserably, his head was broken into pieces, and he couldn't even be put back into a whole body.
As for her mother, her body was not found except for the torn clothes and fabrics.
Doctor Lin did not give up and searched for her personally for a long time but to no avail, so he could only build a tomb for her.
Now I never thought that it is possible for me to still be alive in this world, which is very surprising.
Fang Qingshan looked at Lin Yiwan in front of him with some sympathy, and felt that this little girl had a very difficult fate.
As her sworn brother, he must protect her and support her.
He subconsciously asked, "Wanwan, what are you going to do? You're so smart, you should be able to guess that this might be a bait. If Ye Tianqing wants to rebel, he'll naturally have to find a way to control my brother-in-law, and you are his weak spot!"
Lin Yiwan certainly understood this logic, but after all, what she held in her hands were clues about her mother.
Could she not check?
She squeezed her eyes shut, the words of humiliation echoing in her mind over and over again: "You stinky girl, born of a mother but not raised by one, you lack manners and are not worthy of being called a noble lady!"
She appears strong on the surface, but secretly she also wants to be loved by her mother.
The word "mother" kept turning between her lips, making her feel conflicted and distressed.
Seeing her face covered in tears, Fang Qingshan was immediately startled. He hurriedly advised: "Sister, don't cry. No matter how big the problem is, we have our brother and father to support us. If things don't work out, don't we still have your husband?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a soldier came running in and said, "Reporting to the Major General, someone has delivered a letter to the Marquis' wife!"
Fang Qingshan's expression suddenly changed. Why is it another letter?
It made my stepsister cry!
Without giving him time to stop her, Lin Yiwan took the letter in her hand and unfolded it quickly.
After reading it, a sneer appeared between her thin lips.
She said in a hoarse voice: "Brother, this letter was sent by Ye Tianqing. He said that my mother is in his hands and he wants to see her, so he went to the City Lord's Mansion alone!"
"No, I don't agree!" Fang Qingshan refused almost subconsciously.
But after a moment, he realized that he had no right to make the decision.
After all, she is his sister's mother. How could he stop them from meeting each other?
He hesitantly explained, "Sister, I'm just thinking about your safety. Don't blame me. After all, the City Lord's Mansion is a den of tigers and wolves. Once you go in, it will be difficult to get out!"
Of course Lin Yiwan also understood this, but she had to go!
However, she did not go there upon invitation, but was lurking there secretly.
She is not a fool, why should she be led by Ye Tianqing?
She quickly lowered her voice and said, "Brother, I have to find a way to sneak into Lingnan City, and I have to do it as soon as possible, otherwise when Zhan Yan comes down from the mountain, it won't be so easy for me to leave!"
Fang Qingshan felt a little uneasy. He was afraid that Zhan Yan would beat him to death!
He couldn't make the decision himself, so he could only say, "How about discussing it with our father?"
Lin Yiwan quickly waved her hands, saying that she couldn't discuss this with her adoptive father.
She had finally realized in the past two days that General Fang had a very loving fatherly heart towards her.
It’s really precious!
Not only did he ask the military kitchen to prepare a special meal for her, but he also took care of her all day long.
She is even more nagging than Zhan Yan!
She dared to guarantee that if he knew that she was planning to go into the city alone, he would send soldiers to surround the tent so that not even a fly could fly in.
