Chapter 83: County Lord?

next second An Xuetang calmly said, "Ziling, don't underestimate these people's lives. Your fifth uncle's subordinates haven't had any fun in a long time. Now that there's someone who came to their do...Hearing that there was silver to be had, the monk finally smiled.

This is his job to eat, if he came to help the Lin family without silver, he wouldn't come.

"Mother, are we really going to burn An Xuetang to death" Yang asked with a frown.

"Of course not, I don't want her to actually die." Mrs. Lin's mouth curled into a cold smile. "Regardless, let's teach her a lesson first, and then make her pay us silver."

But will An Xuetang, in this state now, still be willing to give us silver

"Heh," Mrs. Lin's eyes were full of schemes, "This isn't something she can just choose not to give. I don't believe she's fearless. If she truly persists in refusing, we'll have Monk Ding burn her."

Yang Xiao frowned, "Then... what if she really died"

"Let her die then." Lin's eyes were filled with malice, not caring for An Xue Tang's life at all.

Yang Xiao looked at Ding He Shang, "But mother, Ding He Shang is the one we invited. What if the Mo family blames us for An Xue Tang's death What will we do then"

Mrs. Lin chuckled, "So you know why I sent you to find that temptress, Mrs. Liu Who says this monk Ding was invited by us It was Mrs. Liu who brought him here herself."

Then, with a sly smile, she looked at Ding He-shang and said, "What do you think, Ding He-shang Who invited you here"

Ding He Shang immediately showed a sinister smile, "Of course it was An Xue Tang's mother, Liu Shi, who invited me. It was Liu Shi who suspected that her daughter, An Xue Tang, was possessed by a monster and so she invited me to perform an exorcism."

Lin raised an eyebrow and looked at Yang Xiao, "Xiao Xiao, did you hear that This has nothing to do with our Yang family."

Yang Xiao instantly smiled, "Mother, I understand!"

An Xuetang, who had listened to their conversation clearly, narrowed her eyes and curled the corners of her mouth into a mocking smile.

I don't know if she was mocking herself or someone else, but when she heard that even Liu shi agreed to find this half-baked monk, her heart turned cold.

She always felt that she had treated Liu well enough, yet he wanted to burn her alive with others

It's truly ridiculous!

When they returned to the cabin, An Xue Tang was a little disheartened. Mo Yun Jing frowned, "Tangtang What's wrong Did something happen"

An Xuetang looked up and saw Mo Yunjing in the courtyard. She walked over slowly, "Ah Jing has been waiting for me"

Mo Yunjing nodded slightly, "Hmm."

"Oh, the scenery is lovely. The courtyard is a bit sunny though, let's go inside." As she spoke, she pushed Mo Yunjing towards the house.

At this moment, Jiang Qingyang pushed the door open and said, "You're back. Tell me quickly, who was the person who took you away today"

An Xuetang gave him a lazy glance. "What You want to get to know her Have you taken a liking to her"

Jiang Qingyang's face darkened, "What nonsense are you talking about That's a man!"

"What's wrong with men" An Xue Tang smiled, "In my eyes, love has no gender."

"... "

Jiang Qingyang was speechless. What on earth was this woman thinking

Before Jiang Qingyang could speak, An Xuetang had already pushed Mo Yunjing into the room.

Jiang Qingyang outside the door only felt speechless. Didn't this woman take him seriously at all

Thinking this way, he also turned back to his room in a fit of anger.

Mo Yunjing's lips curled into a subtle smirk. He watched An Xue Tang refuse to give Jiang Qingyang face, feeling immensely pleased.

"Tangtang, can you tell us now What happened today"

An Xuetang let out a slight sigh. She put the medical kit away and then walked to Mo Yunjing's side, sitting face-to-face with him.

"Ah Jing, I think I've caused trouble."

"Huh"

"I shouldn't have bothered with the Qin family in the first place. Now it seems I've offended people from Qin Mansion. That Mrs. Qin tore into me today, and I don't know what schemes she'll come up with to get back at me afterward."

Mo Yunjing frowned, "Tangtang, tell me everything that happened."

An Xuetang recounted the incident of being tricked to Qin's Residence today, as well as her falling out with Madam Qin.

After hearing that, Mo Yunjing's anger in his eyes flashed away.

"I must have been blind." An Xuetang said, patting her thigh with a self-deprecating air. "When I first met that Qin Madam, I thought she was beautiful and kind. There wasn't any malice in her eyes or expression. She seemed like a good person."

Looking back, Qin's wife wasn't really without anger. Back then, she seemed kind because she believed she was terminally ill and didn't want to bother with many things.

Now she was full of spirit again, and that condescending attitude toward people surfaced once more.

“This isn’t about Tangtang’s business, don’t think this way.” Mo Yunjing reached out and with a touch of doting, smoothed the stray hair on her forehead, “This Qin Madam is good at disguising herself, it’s understandable that Tangtang couldn't see through it for a while.”

An Xuetang puckered her lips, "Then if we get into trouble next, will Ah Jing be afraid"

"No, she can't find us."

"Hmm" An Xuetang saw Mo Yunjing's confident expression when he said this, and she couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. "Ah Jing, do you have any countermeasures"

Today, Jiang Qingyang recognized the steward from Qin's mansion.

"He knows the steward" An Xuetang was a little surprised. Mentioning the steward of Qin Mansion, An Xuetang's eyes suddenly flashed, "That's right, Jing, this steward of Qin Mansion should be pretty skilled."

Mo Yunjing's deep, dark eyes narrowed. After hearing An Xue Tang's words, he could almost be certain of Qin Madam's identity.

"Did Tangtang remember this Qin Madam saying to you personally that her surname was Yun"

"Well, I remember."

"If I'm not mistaken, she should be Yun Jiaran, the current emperor's niece."

"What!" An Xuetang was surprised, "She... her background is so powerful, no wonder she's so domineering."

After she finished speaking, she suddenly frowned. "Then...then I offended her, doesn't that mean I offended the government"

In this day and age, if the officials order people to die, the people have no choice but to obey.

If Yun Jialan really wanted to oppose her, she would be quite troublesome.

She wasn't afraid of the government, but if she was put on the wanted list, she would have to live in hiding for the rest of her life!

She certainly doesn't want to live like this!

Seeing An Xuetang crying with a long face, Mo Yunjing chuckled. He reached out once again and pinched her delicate nose, "Is Tangtang scared"

Before An Xuetang could answer, he spoke again, "Tangtang, don't be afraid. I won't let anything happen to you. Yun Jialan and the current official aren't what you think they are. In fact, she's afraid of him now."

"Huh Afraid of the imperial family She... she's not His Majesty's niece, is she Then she should be... a county princess"

Mo Yunjing narrowed his eyes slightly, "Those surnamed Yun have long been no different from ordinary people, and they are even inferior to those with other surnames. Their surname Yun means that they will always be guarded by the current emperor." is something you people around him need to remind him constantly."Jiang Qingyang nodded slightly, "Rest assured, Your Highness. This matter is entrusted to me."An Xue Tang wanted to turn and leave di...
