Three days later, the document authorizing Lin Dong and his group’s execution arrived at the Kaiyang Residence in Yanglin County.
When Lord Chen saw the document, he was first surprised, then angry. “How dare the Yunhe County act this way. They knew that Lin Dong was our man, but they executed them without even saying a word.”
“Who was executed?” Suddenly, a bright and beautiful young woman handed him a bowl of white fungus soup. She was Lord Chen’s current wife, Zhao Xiuying. “Drink it to soothe your lungs. I wonder when this dust-filled sky will come to an end.”
Lord Chen directly handed the document to her and said, “Take a look for yourself.”
After Zhao Xiuying took it, her face turned pale when she saw the content. “How could that be? How could Second Uncle Lin be…? He… hubby… this can’t be true, right?”
“It’s stamped with the official seal of the county government, so how could it be fake? I heard that Yunhe County carried out a crackdown last year, but I didn’t expect it to be true. They sure spared no expense.” After Lord Chen finished speaking, he picked up the bowl and slowly drank the white fungus soup.
“You still have the heart to drink this? You should think about how to explain this news to Uncle Lin.” Zhao Xiuying snatched the bowl from him in a huff.
…..
“What explanation? What can I do since they got caught by the officials? You can’t expect me to write a letter condemning County Mayor Kong.
“No matter what, Lin Dong is still a servant. Do you think he can overtake your position?”
“You country bumpkin, what do you know? Don’t forget, my aunt and my younger brother are still living in the residence. If Uncle Lin takes his anger out on them, their lives will be tough.”
Lord Chen’s face immediately darkened when he heard this. He never expected her to call him a country bumpkin.
“Then what do you want me to do? Apologize to Butler Lin?” he asked.
Zhao Xiuying’s expression froze for a moment, but she still said, “Just hurry up and do it; Lin Dong died in our hands, and if this news gets out…”
“If you want to do it, go. Don’t forget that you were the one who sent Lin Dong out.”
“What do you mean? You used them happily before, but now that something has happened, you don’t want to take responsibility?
“Don’t forget that you’re still the head of a county here because my father protected you on my account. Otherwise, with your relationship with the Gu family, you’d have gone home and become a farmer.”
“You,” Lord Chen took a deep breath and smiled flatteringly. “Yingzi, stop messing around. He’s already dead, so it’s useless, no matter how much we apologize.
“I think it’s better for you to go to father-in-law and see what he has to say, or find mother-in-law to discuss it.”
“You’re coming with me,” Zhao Xiuying’s anger subsided a little when she saw him give in.
“I can’t. There are a lot of refugees in the county now. If I go with you, who knows what will happen?” Lord Chen refused without even thinking.
No matter what, he’s the mayor of a county. Why did he have to apologize to a servant? He wouldn’t go to her house and suffer that kind of anger.
“Why don’t we send someone over to kill Gu Ziyi first?”
“Impossible.”
“Why? Do you still have feelings for her?”
“What are you thinking about? Dongyang is the territory of the third prince, and Mayor Kong is his man. If this matter gets out of hand, father-in-law’s and my positions will be threatened.”
“Lord Kong? Should we go to him and ask him not to meddle in this matter?”
“We re of the same rank, but I don’t have that right. We’ll have to discuss this with father-in-law..”
