The big bandit in the Red Mansion robbed Lin Daiyu at the beginning

"Sir, are you okay?"

Li Qingfeng came back to his senses instantly after hearing this, and the murderous intent in his body instantly subsided. He smiled and shook his head, then stood up and patted Xiangling's little head.

"I'm fine, go down and sleep!"

……

Early the next morning.

Lin Daiyu ran out of Lin Ruhai's study, holding a yellowed piece of paper in her hand, covering her face and crying.

Xueyan, who had been waiting outside the door, was shocked when she saw this and hurriedly chased after him.

"Miss, what's wrong with you?"

"Miss, wait for me!"

In the study,

Lin Ruhai also looked sad as he slowly closed his eyes, shook his head and sighed.

Because last night we decided to arrange for Lin Daiyu to go to the capital today.

As soon as he got up early in the morning, he asked his servants to call Lin Daiyu and told her the matter in detail. He also gave Lin Daiyu the pass that Li Qingfeng had given him that day at Qingfeng Village.

But no matter how much he tried to persuade her, Lin Daiyu was still unwilling to leave today.

He said he would wait until he saw Qingfeng Li again before leaving.

But by now, Qingfeng Li might have already been murdered on the streets.

Even if that wasn't the case, Qingfeng Li probably had figured out the whole story by now.

He doesn't even have time to ask his daughter to stay away from Qingfeng Li!

Naturally, he refused sternly and even scolded him.

No matter what happened to Li Qingfeng last night, Yangzhou is now in chaos.

In addition, last night was full of noise and no one knows what will happen tomorrow.

In this chaotic situation, the safest way is to send Lin Daiyu out of Yangzhou as soon as possible.

But he overlooked one point: Lin Daiyu was a sensible, well-behaved and obedient daughter.

But now, for some reason, she seemed to be bewitched by Li Qingfeng and refused to leave until she saw her brother Qingfeng.

Lin Ruhai loves his daughter dearly and is worried about her safety.

She was also angry at that little thief Li Qingfeng, who had won her daughter's heart with sweet words.

She also felt deeply guilty and regretful for having succumbed to Li Qingfeng's tyranny and made the engagement for some political purposes.

Amidst all these emotions, one of them couldn't help but slap Lin Daiyu in the face.

Lin Daiyu ran out crying.

Lin Ruhai was also very regretful.

He and his wife only have this one daughter, and she has been in poor health since childhood. He was afraid that the daughter would melt if he held her in his mouth, and afraid that she would fall if he held her in his hands.

But what on earth did he do to slap his daughter? !

But now that things have come to this, my daughter’s safety is the most important thing!

Lin Ruhai clenched his fists and could only bury his heartache and regret for his daughter deep in his heart.

When Lin Ruhai was filled with endless self-blame and regret,

A figure hurriedly ran in from outside the study.

"Master, Master! It's bad! It's bad!"

Looking closely, it turned out to be the housekeeper Lin Bo.

Lin Ruhai was already feeling upset, but seeing Lin Bo in such a panic,

He asked hurriedly in shock,

"Uncle Lin, didn't you go outside the city to mobilize the salt workers? Why are you still in the mansion?"

Uncle Lin said with a look of fear,

"Master, it's not good!"

"From last night on, Yangzhou City is in complete chaos!"

"It's a mess?!"

Lin Ruhai's expression changed drastically when he heard this, and he stood up.

He hurriedly walked out of the table and came to Lin Bo, and asked anxiously,

"Uncle Lin, what's going on outside? Tell us quickly!"

"Yes, sir!"

Uncle Lin did not dare to hide it and quickly said,

"Early this morning, I was ordered to go to the Salt Administration Office to get the order to mobilize troops. Along the way, I discovered that almost all the intersections were guarded by people from Qingfeng Village. All passers-by had to be questioned before they could pass!"

"Even this old slave was interrogated by the people of Qingfeng Village no less than five or six times during his trips back and forth."

Lin Ruhai was startled for a moment and asked hurriedly,

"That warrant..."

"Don't worry, sir, the warrant is still there!"

As he spoke, Uncle Lin quickly bent down to take off his shoes and took out a palm-sized token from the shoe.

Seeing that the token was still there, Lin Ruhai breathed a sigh of relief, but did not reach out to take it.
