Chapter 16 [Changes]

That day.

Lin Gong came out of the East Palace and did not dare to delay for a moment. He immediately arranged what the prince had ordered.

After everything was settled, he went to the Royal Villa to visit his sister.

Every time he returned to Beijing, the first thing he did was to visit his sister and bring her some new and interesting toys.

Now, he has been back in Beijing for many days, but he still cannot get away and has been busy with the matters instructed by the prince.

Now that the charity sale for disaster relief has come to a successful conclusion, he can finally take a break.

Carrying gifts, Lin Gong went to the royal villa.

"Second brother!"

Lin Wan'er, the sickly canary who had been caged for a long time, was naturally very happy to see her second brother.

"Second brother, you are amazing. The disaster relief charity sale has caused a lot of buzz in Kyoto. I have also heard about it."

Lin Wan'er gave her second brother a thumbs up and praised him sincerely.

Lin Gong felt very happy to receive such praise from his sister.

"In this matter, I just contributed my efforts, it's nothing great," he said modestly.

"What? Is there someone behind Second Brother?" Lin Wan'er's curiosity was immediately aroused.

She had been imprisoned in a cage for a long time and was very curious about things in the outside world.

Now that my second brother is here, I naturally have to get to the bottom of it.

"Forget about this matter. I'll tell you this, just keep it to yourself and don't spread it to anyone else."

"Don't worry, second brother. You know, my mouth is very tight!" Lin Wan'er supported her chin with both hands and waited for him to tell the story.

Lin Gong put down the gift, looked at his sister with doting and heartache, and slowly told her the whole story from beginning to end.

"I never thought that the prince, who everyone thought was weak and incompetent, would have such talent and wisdom!"

After listening to it, Lin Wan'er exclaimed with stars in her eyes.

Lin Gong concealed the fact that he had taken the life-and-death pill, and he knew in his heart that even his old father would never tell this matter.

Otherwise, as soon as he opened his mouth, he would most likely explode and die immediately.

He didn't dare, nor was he willing to try it easily.

"The prince is naturally powerful, and second brother is not bad either. Now the whole Kyoto is saying that you are both talented in literature and martial arts, and you will definitely achieve great things in the future." Lin Wan'er said with a smile.

Lin Gong felt very happy to hear this.

It can be said that this is the most popular, prestigious and correct thing he has done over the years.

In fact, he was secretly proud of himself.

Naturally, he was also very grateful to the prince for giving him this opportunity to demonstrate his value and talent in front of the people of the world.

At that moment, he suddenly felt that the prince understood him, just like a good horse trainer identifying a good horse.

Know people and use them well, appoint their talents, use their abilities, observe their ambitions, and accomplish their tasks.

While the two were talking, Lin Wan'er started coughing.

"Your illness..." Lin Gong sighed, "I'll ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince some other day. He might have a solution."

Hearing this, Lin Wan'er smiled and said, "Second brother, what do you think the prince is? An all-powerful master?"

Lin Gong also realized this and smiled.

After chatting for a while, Lin Gong got up and left, and Lin Wan'er accompanied him to the door.

"Don't worry, I will come to see you after I finish dealing with the matters instructed by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Lin Gong said with a smile.

"As for your illness, I will also find a chance to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Lin Wan'er waved goodbye and said dejectedly:
"What can Your Highness do about my illness? Sigh..."

She had no hope in her heart.

In the evening, Ye Ling'er came to the royal villa.

"Ling'er, do you know that the disaster relief charity sale that has been making the rounds in Kyoto recently actually has a backstory?"

"What's the inside story?" Ye Ling'er was also quite curious. "No one else knows about it. How could you know it in this royal villa?"

Ye Ling'er naturally didn't believe it, but she still couldn't help but be curious.

This matter is a hot topic in Kyoto.

If there is any inside information, I would naturally want to know.

Lin Wan'er looked around and whispered:
“My second brother also told me about this matter, it’s a confidential matter.

I'll just tell you, but don't tell anyone else about it."

Seeing that the story might be true, Ye Linger became even more curious and nodded:

"Don't worry, you know me. I'm a tight-lipped person."

Hearing this, Lin Wan'er suddenly felt that she seemed to have heard this sentence somewhere before.

I can't remember it, forget it. Lin Wan'er told everything she knew.

After a long while, Ye Ling'er was quite shocked. "It turned out to be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but he never showed up from beginning to end?"

"So, you can't imagine it, right?"

Ye Ling'er nodded, "I really didn't expect it."

As she spoke, Lin Wan'er started coughing again.

"Don't worry, I have sent people out to find famous doctors in the world who will definitely be able to cure you." Ye Ling'er said worriedly.

"My second brother said that he would find an opportunity to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince if there is any solution." Lin Wan'er said with a smile, pretending to be relaxed.

"Your Highness? That's unlikely." Ye Ling'er was also skeptical.

Ye Mansion.

Ye Ling'er returned from the Royal Villa.

At the dinner table, Ye Ling'er suddenly spoke up, "Dad, do you know that there are some unknown secrets behind the disaster relief sale?"

"Really?" Father Ye obviously didn't believe it. "Tell me about it."

"Dad, I'll tell you, but don't tell anyone else."

"You little bastard, don't you trust your father? I'm a very tight-lipped person."

Ye Ling'er was stunned for a moment, "Why does this sound so familiar..."

the other side.

Lin Gong returned home and prepared to arrange disaster relief.

He had ordered all the silver earned from the disaster relief sale to be moved back to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Now, we need to contact grain merchants and prepare to build a porridge shed.

"Second son!"

When Lin Gong returned, the gatekeeper bowed slightly.

Nowadays, Lin Gong is a famous person in the whole Kyoto.

Even the servants in the mansion were very respectful to him and did not dare to neglect him in the slightest.

"Well, no one has ever entered the warehouse, right?" Lin Gong asked.

The silver was packed in boxes and kept in the warehouse after being moved back.

Lin Gong watched the whole process with his own eyes.

There was only one key to the warehouse, and it was in his hands.

The warehouse was guarded by his personal soldiers.

"No." the man answered.

"it is good."

Lin Gong took out the key, opened the door and entered the warehouse.

All the boxes were intact and neatly arranged, with no signs of movement.

Seeing this, Lin Gong secretly breathed a sigh of relief. This amount of money was an astronomical figure.

Moreover, this is a matter of disaster relief and the life and death of countless refugees.

If he lost it, he would probably lose his life.

"Where are the grain merchants we contacted?" Lin Gong asked.

"Second Young Master, the people have arrived."

His personal guards came in with three or five men, dressed like businessmen.

"Meet Mr. Lin Er."

"Just follow what we agreed upon before, and follow me in to get the silver."

"Yes, it's all up to you, Second Young Master." The merchants were very respectful and didn't dare to say much.

Lin Gong entered the warehouse, opened the iron lock, and prepared to take out the silver.

However, the moment the box was opened, he was stunned.

The box was empty, not even a hair was in it.

Lin Gong was certain that he had watched the silver being put into the box.

I also saw with my own eyes as the boxes were sealed one by one and then carried to the Lin residence.

But now...

He opened all the boxes like crazy.

All empty!
At this moment, Lin Gong was stunned.

His face was pale.
