Starting with a cub, the superpower boss becomes the richest man by lying flat

Chapter 45: The Emperor doesn't care anymore, who can you show this to?

"Then Nannan and I will go back first." After saying this, Lin Xin still had a stern face and picked up Linnan and went down the mountain. Big Tiger followed behind them. Although his legs were still a little lame, he still bared his teeth at Mo Ziyuan as a protest when passing by him.

Mo Ziyuan stared at the direction they had left for a long time, even until he could no longer see their shadows. After a while, he suddenly smiled, shook his head, and whispered, "What an interesting girl! I'm looking forward to the next surprise you'll bring me!"

After returning home, Lin Xin first gave the big tiger a good cold shower. The originally fluffy fur was stuck to the body, making it look much thinner. In addition, several scars began to bleed, and the whole tiger looked particularly miserable.

"Sister, Big Cat is bleeding again." Lin Nan felt so distressed that her eyes turned red when she spoke.

"It's okay. Have you forgotten how powerful it is? It will be fine soon." Lin Xin couldn't understand why Lin Nan was so concerned about this big tiger when there were so many animals in the woods.

"Yeah, then sister, please stop the bleeding quickly! If it keeps on bleeding, it'll die!"

Lin Xinmo, I just said it perfunctorily, but you didn’t listen carefully, right?
However, she still took the medicine and applied it on the big tiger's buttocks and ribs, and then quietly used her special powers to nourish its body.

The big tiger lay comfortably on the ground, letting Lin Xin do what she wanted to him. After she was done, he slowly stood up, shook his body vigorously, and splashed water everywhere.

This was the scene Mo Ziyuan saw when he knocked on the door and came in. Although the yard was a mess, it gave him a warm feeling and made him feel much more comfortable than his home in the Duke Dingguo Mansion in the capital.

Lin Xin didn't let him wait any longer. She went straight into the house, retrieved the copper tube from the space, and handed it to him. She gestured to the tiger's hind leg and said, "It was taken out from this part of the body."

Mo Ziyuan nodded and took it. He studied it for a while in front of her, then quickly opened the copper tube and took out the contents, flipping through them carefully.

Lin Xin twitched her lips and ignored him. Seeing that he had no intention of leaving, she started preparing dinner for everyone.

Mo Ziyuan seemed to be concentrating on the things in his hands, but in fact he had been paying a little attention to Lin Xin. When he saw her staring at him with a frown, his heart skipped a beat, fearing that she would kick him out without mercy.

When she turned and walked towards the kitchen, his heart seemed to finally settle down. After he heaving a long sigh, he realized belatedly that he was afraid of being kicked out not because he was afraid of losing face, but because he was afraid that he would not be able to spend more time with her during the meal.

Lin Xin prepared a very adequate dinner, consisting of ordinary farm dishes. She also prepared a large bowl of raw meat for the big tiger, which he ate with relish. Occasionally, Lin Nan would secretly offer the meat in his bowl to him. Lin Xin could feel a sense of satisfaction in the tips of his beard.

Mo Ziyuan was also very satisfied, especially when he saw Lin Nan's little eyes glancing at his sister after quietly feeding the big tiger. It was so adorable. In addition, after listening to Meng Yichen's description of this little guy, he began to understand why Mr. Cui and Meng Yichen looked at Lin Nan differently.

After finishing the meal, Mo Ziyuan could no longer find a reason to stay, but he really didn't want to leave. At this moment, a strong idea suddenly arose in his mind, which was to lure the brother and sister to his camp, so that he would have many opportunities to get along with them.

But soon, he dismissed this crazy idea. What they were doing was too dangerous and they could lose their lives at any time. The merit of following a dragon was not easy to obtain. People like Meng Yixuan who could save their lives in such a desperate situation were extremely rare and could not be found by chance.

"Although I know I shouldn't do this, I still want to say something on behalf of Yi Chen and Mr. Cui." Mo Ziyuan looked into Lin Xin's eyes and said seriously.

Lin Xin looked at him seriously as well, "Can't this matter end here? Nannan is still young, he may not quite understand what they did to him, but I am not. Although we are just ordinary siblings from a farming family and do not have an extraordinary status, we also have dignity, and I don't like my brother being used like this." "Miss Lin, don't get me wrong, I'm not making excuses for them, but Mr. Cui and Yi Chen should have been implicated by Fu Jing. Mr. Cui's love for Nannan is not fake. Although Yi Chen did agree to be Nannan's husband with ulterior motives at the beginning, he really fell in love with Lin Nan later." Mo Ziyuan tried his best to choose words that would not irritate Lin Xin and said his words of plea.

"In fact, Fu Jing and the others are at their wit's end. The Third Prince, with the support of the Grand Tutor's lineage, has already won over nearly half of the court officials. The Crown Prince's power has been continuously suppressed, and many of his lineage have been accused of trumped-up crimes and imprisoned. Those who defected were promoted, while those who held out to the end were dismissed as the best outcome. If they weren't careful, their families would be destroyed. That's why they're so anxious to get this thing."

Lin Xin frowned. She had heard of this kind of thing before, but it was all in novels or movies and TV shows. Although she could empathize with some of the plots, she knew that they were all fake. Now, suddenly hearing this real-life example, she still felt a little shocked.

"It's already like this, and the emperor doesn't care?" Lin Xin asked curiously.

"The Emperor has been ill in recent years, and the Grand Tutor has recommended several Taoist masters to him."

Well, there is no need to say what comes next. She is familiar with this routine. It must be that the emperor is obsessed with cultivating immortals and is devoted to Taoism. He might even take a few elixirs and simply abandon the affairs of state.

"Then it's useless to have this thing in your hand! The emperor doesn't care about it anymore, so who can you show this thing to?"

Mo Ziyuan pursed his lips and replied with a bitter voice, "There are also clan members and some elders who can at least play a restraining role."

"Why don't you just kill those people?" Lin Xin blinked. "They can kill your people, so why can't you kill theirs?"

In Lin Xin's opinion, instead of placing invisible hopes on those royal family members and elders who may or may not turn against her, it would be better to deal with those who need to be dealt with by herself.

Mo Ziyuan shook his head. "If we do that, we'll be no different from them. Moreover, if anything happens to the Third Prince's lineage, who knows who they'll blame. They might even use this as an excuse to overthrow the government."

"Tsk!" Lin Xin expressed her contempt for this. They say to catch a thief first, you have to catch the leader. You just need to kill the most important one and that's it!
But she just thought about it and didn't say anything else. She just said, "Okay! You are all noble people. The things have been given to you. Go!"

Mo Ziyuan already understood Lin Xin's habit of chasing people away when she was unhappy, but he didn't know how he had offended her again.

But looking at the sky, it’s already late, and it’s time to leave.

Mo Ziyuan lingered until he reached the door and was about to open it when a hand suddenly reached out from behind and pressed against the door panel. He turned around in surprise, only to find Lin Xin standing behind him with an ugly expression and cold eyes. Even he was frightened by the look.

"How..." Mo Ziyuan was about to ask when Lin Xin put her right index finger on her lips and made a "hush" gesture.

A few breaths later, a sound of footsteps that was obviously deliberately quiet came from afar, along with a conversation between two people.
