Yuwen Longyan, who had returned to the palace, immediately asked,” What happened?”
The Minister of Justice was terrified. He knelt down and said,” Your Majesty, someone broke into the prison just now and killed Lin Laosan’s family and the villagers!’
Yuwen Longyan frowned and said,” They’re all dead?!”
” Yes,” the Minister of Justice replied first, then he shook his head and said,” Oh, no, there’s still one villager left in Lin Family Village!’
“One survived?” Yuwen Longyan asked in confusion. He felt a little strange. If they really wanted to kill everyone, they shouldn’t have left her alive! “Who is
“Yes, a little girl. She was protected by her mother and escaped!” The Minister of Justice said.
This was to tell Yuwen Longyan that this person wasn’t deliberately left behind.
Yuwen Longyan nodded and said,” Alright, you must protect this only witness! Tomorrow, we would wait for the princess and the general to deal with it personally.”
The Minister of Justice wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and immediately replied,” Yes! ”
Before the banquet ended, Jiang Zhennan returned to the banquet hall in casual clothes. After that, he exchanged a glance with Lin Yuelan and stayed by her side.
Xiao Jingrui took a look, and his eyes flashed. Then he called the waiter and poured him a glass of red wine. He walked to Jiang Zhennan with a smile,” General Jiang, I heard that you didn’t like this complicated banquet and went upstairs to rest. Why are you here now?”
His cold and sharp gaze swept across Jiang Zhennan as if he wanted to find something wrong with Jiang Zhennan. Jiang Zhennan’s sharp gaze shot back directly. Then, he asked coldly,” Second Prince, what’s the matter?”
Xiao Jingrui took it and shook the red wine in his glass. Then, a faint smile appeared on his face. He shook his head and said lightly and provocatively,” It’s nothing. However, the banquet is about to end. If the general doesn’t come down soon, this prince will be happy to accompany the princess of Guguo!’ This was a direct provocation.
Jiang Zhennan said coldly,” Thank you, Second Prince. It’s just that it’s better for me to accompany my woman! Otherwise, some people would misunderstand that he had a chance!”
Of course, this person referred to Xiao Jingrui.
It was not the first time they had clashed. Although they had attracted the attention of everyone present, no one had the courage to join in the fun like last time.
However, the Crown Prince brought a glass of transparent white wine over and said to Xiao Jingrui with a smile,” Second Prince, try this wine. It’s a kind of strong wine with a unique aroma. See if it suits your taste.” His Highness the Crown Prince had come over to help them out.
Xiao Jingrui smiled and said,” Alright, I’ll try it!’
After that, Xiao Jingrui glanced at Lin Yuelan and left.
During the banquet, Liu Jiaying had the important task of explaining the origin and flavour of these wines to the guests.
Now, everyone really believed that this eleven-year-old girl was worthy of the title of “God of Wine”.
It made those who thought that drinking was their life feel ashamed.
Lin Yuelan was very satisfied with the sensation that Liu Jiaying had brought to the banquet.
But at the same time, it also meant that the more outstanding Liu Jiaying was, the more dangerous her situation became.
This was because everyone present understood the business opportunities of these wines. However, this girl had mastered the brewing methods of more than half of the varieties of wine.
Therefore, as long as they could get Liu Jiaying, it would be equivalent to obtaining an endless amount of wealth.
Wealth moved people’s hearts!
Perhaps many people would really go through fire and water for this money.
They might be afraid of Lin Yuelan, the princess of Gu Kingdom, and they wouldn’t dare to have any improper thoughts about the inn. However, Lin Yuelan was willing to bet that if Liu Jiaying relaxed a little, someone might kidnap her.
They didn’t think that Lin Yuelan would start a killing spree if they touched Liu Jiaying.
If someone really had such thoughts, hehe, then it could only be said that they were too naive.
They didn’t know that if they offended Lin Yuelan, they could still live. However, if they touched the people around Lin Yuelan, they wouldn’t be able to live even if they wanted to.
Of course, when Lin Yuelan planned to push Liu Jiaying to the public, she was already prepared to protect Liu Jiaying at any time.
No one could kidnap someone under the layers of protection she had arranged..
