Chapter 4: Assassination

"You! You can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense! ”

When Aunt Zhao heard this, she immediately became anxious.

When Lin Yue heard this, she sneered.

"Really?" She took a step forward, leaned into Aunt Zhao's ear, and whispered, "You know what the truth is." If you make trouble with me again......"

Lin Yue straightened up, her eyes filled with coldness.

"We'll have to see you at the government."

Seeing Lin Yue say this, although Aunt Zhao was full of unwillingness, she could only stop there.

She gritted her teeth, stamped her foot, and raised her foot to leave.

But before he could take a step, Lin Yue stopped him.

"Wait. Aunt Zhao, you haven't lost my pear blossom cream's money yet! ”

Aunt Zhao turned her head and glared at Lin Yue, and rushed out without looking back.

Lin Yue raised her eyebrows, "Su Xin, go to Ruhuazhai to get this hundred taels of silver back for me." ”

"Yes."

After solving the trouble, Lin Yue returned to the private room again.

With Aunt Zhao's trouble, Tianxinfang's business not only did not decrease, but more and more people gathered.

By the window of the tea room on the second floor of the Suyuan Tea House, two men dressed in black quietly watched the movement in Tianxin Fang.

"Your Highness, your subordinates will let people check Ruhuazhai."

"Not necessarily."

A deep male voice sounded, it was Shao Sijin.

On his side, Ah Ying was stunned when he heard the sound.

This is the first time that he has been Shao Sijin's personal guard for so many years, and he can't figure out his master's mind.

Just when Ah Ying doubted his life, after a while, Shao Sijin continued, "Continue to pay attention to the Cao family. ”

"That's Ruhuazhai's side?" Ah Ying was puzzled.

"Someone will look into it for us."

Hearing this, Ah Ying followed his line of sight, and his gaze fell on the sign of Tianxin Fang.

As if he remembered something, he suddenly said again, "By the way, Your Highness, my subordinates went to check on the eldest lady of the Lin family according to your instructions." Three months ago, she did leave Beijing with the Lin family's caravan, and only returned to the Lin Mansion half a month ago. And, according to her subordinates, Miss Lin did not enter Beijing with the caravan, but returned to Beijing alone. ”

Ah Ying's words made Shao Sijin hook the corners of his mouth slightly.

His gaze towards Tianxinfang was a little more exploratory.

Tianxinfang private room.

The room was quiet again, and Lin Yue walked into the private room and closed the doors and windows.

She sat down at the table and reached out to flip through the transcript of Ruhuazhai's accounts on the table.

This is the ledger that she has spent a lot of effort to get people to copy for nearly a month.

The manuscript was covered with red bars, and every problem account was carefully marked.

"Bixin, send the account book to Jingzhao Mansion."

For example, the problem on Hua Zhai's books is obvious, as long as you investigate deeply, you can find that the money recorded in the account book is very different from the actual situation.

Even if Ruhuazhai is the most popular fat powder shop in Beijing, it is impossible for it to have such an amount of income.

What's more, such as Hua Zhai's business, she can see at a glance that there is no profit at all.

If you guess correctly, there must be something unsavvy behind this Ruhua Zhai.

"Miss, you know that the back of Ruhuazhai is not clean, why do you still wade into this muddy water?"

Bixin picked up the ledger with confusion written on her face.

Lin Yue glanced at Bixin, tapped her head, and said, "Ruhuazhai's fat powder is so cheap, we can still compete with them in a day or two." But in the long run, we will inevitably not be able to bear it. ”

This is also the reason why most of the fat powder shops in Beijing can't compete with Ruhuazhai.

No one can make ends meet for a long time and compete with Ruhuazhai.

Only by completely eradicating Ruhuazhai can Tianxinfang gain a firm foothold in Beijing.

After explaining some other matters to Su Xin, Lin Yue took Bi Xin back to Lin Mansion.

In the blink of an eye, four days passed.

"Miss, Jingzhao Mansion has already started to check Ruhuazhai. But presumably it was the big man behind Ruhua Zhai who came forward, and since the person who summoned Ruhua Zhai that day asked him, there has been no movement. ”

Listening to Bixin's report, Lin Yue didn't care much.

She put away her homemade eyebrow powder, put her special paintbrush aside, and looked at herself in the mirror.

"What's the matter, do you still recognize your young lady and me?"

Bixin raised her eyes, and after seeing Lin Yue with thick makeup, she almost fell in fright.

"Miss, what are you doing!"

"Aren't there rumors outside, isn't your young lady and I so ugly? I'm going to be worthy of what they say about me! ”

After saying that, Lin Yue raised her head very proudly.

Bi Xin was helpless, thinking that her young lady was really different.

Everyone else is trying to make themselves beautiful, but when they came to her young lady, it was the other way around.

This makeup is really getting uglier day by day.

"Okay, okay, no more wasted time. Bring my face wash water, let's pack up and go to Tianxinfang. ”

Bixin hurriedly brought Lin Yue's special face wash.

After washing the makeup off her face, Lin Yue put on a veil and went out.

Since Ruhuazhai's account book was sent to Jingzhao Mansion, Tianxinfang and Ruhuazhai are completely incompatible.

Lin Yue went to Tianxin Fang today, just to bring more evidence in his hand and go to Jingzhao Mansion in person.

She didn't let Bixin follow, and left Bixin in Tianxinfang, but took Suxin with her.

After all, Bixin's identity is special, and people with a heart can find out that she is from the Lin Mansion with a little attention.

Lin Yue didn't think about involving the Lin Mansion, so she had to leave Bixin in the shadows.

Jingzhao Mansion was some distance away from West Street, Lin Yue and Su Xin got into the carriage, and after a while, she noticed something unusual.

"Su Xin, this is not the way to Jingzhao Mansion."

"The slave also found out."

The two glanced at each other, Su Xin opened the curtain slightly, and glanced out.

In the eye, there is no gorgeous scene of the capital, but it is full of depression.

"Miss, you're out of town."

Lin Yue twisted her eyebrows.

What is the work behind this Ruhuazhai?

If you can afford to hire a killer to take your own life, it will definitely not be an ordinary family.

In this capital, although it is full of explanations of people who are either rich or noble, those who dare to do such things blatantly are afraid that there is also a certain amount of power in the court.

"I'll hold them back for a while, and you go first with the evidence."

Lin Yue made a decision immediately.

She doesn't know martial arts, and she must not be as fast as Su Xin when she runs, but her ability to fool people is not comparable to ten Su Xin.

"Miss!" Su Xin naturally wouldn't agree.

"Act according to my instructions in a while, you withdraw first, and then hurry back to the Lin family to call someone."

Lin Yue informed Su Xin of her plan, and even if Su Xin was still not at ease, she couldn't think of a better way, so she had to agree.

Everything was planned, and Lin Yue shouted out of the car.

"Park, I'm a little uncomfortable, I won't go to Jingzhao Mansion today, let's go back to Tianxinfang first."

Although she knew that she would not get a response, Lin Yue still spoke up.

She wants to get their attention.

After waiting for a while, there was still no movement outside the carriage.

Lin Yue glanced at Su Xin, and Su Xin immediately leaned forward and lifted the curtain of the carriage.

A sword appeared in front of Su Xin.

Su Xin immediately dodged backwards, and at the same time, Lin Yue kicked the man out of the car.
