Chapter 98 Shen Jing's Background

"Lin Yunfang has been tied up and gagged, but she is still restless." Qing Wu said dissatisfiedly.

Ji Anyu's face was as cold as frost. She returned to Ji Mansion and went to see Lin Jinhu first.

"Miss, Lin Jinhu has his eyes blindfolded with a black cloth and has been making a lot of noise. It's better to knock him out directly to avoid any more noise." Qiao Xin glanced calmly at Lin Jinhu lying on the ground.

Ji Anyu looked at Qiao Xin with relief and said, "Let Lin Yunfang see his son."

Lin Yunfang was surprised that Ji Anyu moved so quickly. She felt heartbroken when she saw her son.

"What did you do to Hu'er? What are the injuries on his body...and why did he faint?"

"Lin Yunfang, are you really stupid, or are you just pretending to be stupid? Lin Jinhu offended someone and went to jail. Do you still expect him to come out intact?"

Ji Anyu clenched the dagger and pressed it against Lin Yunfang's neck.

"Now it's time for you to fulfill your promise. If you dare to threaten me, your son would not be as intact as he is now."

She signaled Qing Wu to carry Lin Jinhu away, and asked Qiao Xin to go out and guard. She and Lin Yunfang were left in the room again.

Lin Yunfang asked vigilantly, "Where did you ask someone to take Hu'er? Don't blame me for not reminding you. I still have the evidence against Shen Jing."

"I am not married to Shen Jing yet. Even if he is deceiving the emperor, it has nothing to do with me. I want to see how long you can be stubborn. I will kill Lin Jinhu now!"

Ji Anyu didn't have the patience to argue with Lin Yunfang, so he kicked Lin Yunfang and pretended to leave.

Lin Yunfang said quickly, "No, no, no! Don't go. I said, Shen Jing is not the son of Prince Zhong."

Ji Anyu's deep pupils trembled, and she turned around and looked coldly at Lin Yunfang on the ground.

"How do you know?"

"When I was still in the palace, I served the Imperial Concubine. The Imperial Concubine couldn't sleep well and often had nightmares. One time, she shouted in her sleep that Shen Jing was not the child of Prince Zhong."

Ji Anyu sneered, "How can you take it seriously when it's just a dream?"

"Little girl, you haven't seen Prince Zhong, so of course you don't believe it. I have seen Prince Zhong, and Shen Jing doesn't look like Prince Zhong in any way. Everyone says Shen Jing looks like the Princess Zhong, but I don't think he looks like the Princess Zhong."

Ji Anyu concealed his inner turmoil and glanced coldly at Lin Yunfang.

"You want to deceive me with such lies? Humph! Come on, cover Lin Yunfang's mouth again."

Qiao Xin pushed the door open with the secret guards. She waved to the secret guards to signal them to take action.

"Everything I said is true, let my son go..."

Ji Anyu walked out of the house and looked up at the palace.

The imperial concubine wanted to kill Shen Jing. She knew that Shen Jing was not Prince Zhong's child, but she never used this to force Shen Jing. There must be some hidden story behind this.

Shen Jing has been looking for Prince Zhong over the years, which shows that Shen Jing still has some feelings for Prince Zhong.

If Shen Jing knew that he was not Prince Zhong's flesh and blood, Ji Anyu couldn't imagine how devastated Shen Jing would be.

Ji Anyu was struggling over whether or not to tell Shen Jing the truth. After thinking for a long time, she decided to wait until she found out the truth before telling Shen Jing.

At this time, Qing Wu walked towards Ji Anyu.

"Miss, what should we do with Lin Jinhu?"

"When Wei Yanyue is about to leave the house, throw him at the gate of the Wei Mansion."

Ji Anyu's eyes flashed with anger, "Qing Wu, when you go out later, buy some tendon softening powder and feed it to Lin Yunfang every day."

"Yes."

Ji Anyu was still a little worried. She had to go find Ya Yan to buy some poison with an antidote for Lin Yunfang. She didn't dare to say anything even if Lin Yunfang ran away. "Qing Wu, don't buy the soft tendon powder. Please help me find Ya Yan to buy some poison with an antidote for Lin Yunfang."

"Yes." Qing Wu asked doubtfully, "Miss, why don't you just poison Lin Yunfang to death?"

"She's still useful."

Ji Anyu always felt that the imperial concubine was afraid that Shen Jing's background would be exposed to the public, so she saved Lin Yunfang's life in the hope that she could expose the imperial concubine in the future.

……

Wei Yanyue wanted to tell Shen Jing that Ji Anyu's old lover was coming to the capital, so she ordered people to prepare the carriage. As soon as she left the house, she saw Lin Jinhu lying at the gate.

"Where did this beggar come from? Hey, there's a foul smell." Qingqing covered her nose and signaled the servant to pull the man away.

"Wait, send him to the inn and ask the doctor to check his health."

"Miss!" Qingqing looked at Wei Yanyue in shock. Doesn't Miss always dislike these people?
"Don't you understand what I'm saying?" Wei Yanyue pinched Qingqing's arm.

"From now on, you are not allowed to question what I say. If you want to stay by my side and serve me, you must listen to me and don't tell my brother."

Qingqing had to nod. Although the young master asked her to look after the young lady, the young lady was fine at the moment and it wouldn't cost her anything to help someone.

The doctor gave Lin Jinhu a few injections, and Lin Jinhu slowly woke up.

"Mr. Lin, you're awake."

A pleasant female voice was heard and Lin Jinhu turned his head to look over.

"It's you." Lin Jinhu's face was full of surprise. "You saved me?"

Wei Yanyue didn't know whether Lin Jinhu was talking about being released from prison or hiring a doctor for Lin Jinhu, so she shamelessly agreed to both.

"You suffered in prison. My father said that since you didn't do anything wrong, you naturally couldn't continue to live in the cell."

"Thank you, Miss Wei. I have no way of repaying you for your kindness. If you need me in the future, please let me know. I will help you if I can."

Wei Yanyue concealed the joy of success and said, "Mr. Lin, you should have a good rest. I have paid for the food and accommodation in this inn. You can rest and recover. I will go home first."

"Okay." Lin Jinhu looked at Wei Yanyue tenderly as she left, and he touched his face happily.

Miss Wei met him by chance, rescued him from that group of people, arranged for him to stay in an inn, and even paid for his food. Could it be that she fell in love with him?

Lin Jinhu smiled foolishly. If he could marry Miss Wei, he could go to the casino opened by the prince anytime.

In the palace, the prince was in a state of panic.

Ever since he learned that the Duke was seriously ill, he has been concerned about who will inherit the position of the Duke.

Ji Xiuyi submitted a petition to the emperor requesting his approval to allow him to inherit the title of Duke, but the emperor rejected it.

"Mother, what do you think father means? He just can't stand me? He favors the Imperial Concubine and the Second Prince."

Chen Yuxian looked dejected, "The Duke's Mansion is going to decline. I don't want to marry Ji Yunchu. The position of Crown Princess should be left to someone more suitable."

Kong Wanhan was fighting crickets. When she heard the sadness in her son's voice, she stopped what she was doing.

"Don't you like Ji Yunchu very much? If your father asks you to marry her, then you should marry her. If you displease your father, the Second Prince will laugh at you behind his back."

Chen Yuxian snorted childishly, "When has the Second Prince stopped laughing at me? Ji Yunchu was not the Duke's daughter. When the Duke was alive, I was willing to marry her. Now that the Duke is dying, it would be better to take her as a concubine than marry her."

"You kid." Kong Wanhan was helpless.

"You have already given the betrothal gifts, and you still want to ruin the engagement? Do you think your father doesn't know that the Duke is seriously ill? He agreed to let you go to give the betrothal gifts because he saw that the Duke was seriously ill. In his heart, Ji Yunchu is the one who can take the position of Crown Princess. Why do you have to make things difficult for your father?"
