C73 (1/2)

A sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth as he looked at that sneaky figure at the end of the alley. It seemed like Lin Tian Lei's death was suspicious.

Lin Chu Yue searched in and out of the study room for a long time, but still did not find any secret rooms or other mechanisms. Other than Uncle Lin, no Lin Family s were allowed to enter the room from the time Lin Tian Lei was still alive.

”Eldest Miss, these are all details of the medicine. What do you think they are missing?”

Uncle Lin put down the senior that he was carrying and took out a letter. On the letter, he read Lin Tian Lei's diary.

Looking at Uncle Lin with a puzzled expression, Lin Chu Yue slowly said: ”In the future, just buy the medicine from the medicinal masters. This way, you can save a lot of money.”

”Yes, this old servant knows. If the young miss is fine, this old servant will take his leave.”

Uncle Lin stood up, pointed at a wooden board under the desk, then turned around and left the study.

Creak –

Just like before, Uncle Lin closed the door to the study as he left.

”Liu Er, prepare some pastries. Tonight, I will organize the accounts in the study, and let Li Niang cook good food for me.” Holding the letter in her hand, looking at Uncle Lin's actions, it was likely that Uncle Lin had already known that the Lin Mansion was being watched. Not only the people of the Imperial Consort Lin, even the Emperor himself was monitoring the Lin Mansion.

But what value did a fallen Lin Mansion have to be watched?

”It's Miss, Liu Er will tell the kitchen to prepare something for you to eat now.” Liu Er understood what Lin Chu Yue meant. Although she was also confused as to why Uncle Lin would do such a thing, but after staying by Lin Chu Yue's side for so long, Liu Er naturally knew what the young miss wanted to do.

Turning around and leaving the room, Liu Er closed the door and headed towards the kitchen.

At this time, Lin Chu Yue was the only one left in the study room. Even though Hong Lang was guarding outside, he couldn't guard against enemies hiding in the shadows.

Opening the letter, two densely packed pages were filled with words. These were all Lin Tian Lei's notes. Seeing that the words were scribbled so quickly, he became flustered, as if he knew what was about to happen.

My daughter, Chu Yue, I know that I don't have much time, so I left a letter for Uncle Lin to handle. Once you have the ability to protect yourself, Uncle Lin will pass on this letter to you.

When the contents of the letter began, Lin Chu Yue looked at the matters narrated by the letter. No matter what, she could not imagine that Lin Tian Lei's death would affect the entire China.

Just like what Lin Chu Yue had heard from the imperial study earlier that day, Lin Tian Lei did not die suddenly, but was poisoned with the same poison that Feng Yi had, and the dosage was extremely high. Lin Tian Lei seemed to have already known that she would be harmed and wrote this letter before she died.

Furthermore, Lin Chu Yue could faintly feel that she had consumed the poison herself.

However, the contents of the letter still made Lin Chu Yue shocked.

So … The Lin Mansion was actually related to the Lin Mansion s of the Yanzhou s by bloodline, and the reason why Lin Tian Lei was like this was entirely because of a legendary treasure map.

The letter did not mention what the treasure map was, and only kept repeating that it wanted Lin Chu Yue to stay as far away from the capital as possible. If possible, she would seek protection from the Lin Mansion s in the Yanzhou.

At the end of the letter, there was a short line: ”Don't ever go back and investigate the treasure map. Those clans won't let anyone who threatened the treasure map get away with it.”

Those clans? Which families?
