Chapter 437 Adapted Version

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

At six o'clock in the morning, Lin Fengxue, who had slept for less than three hours, sat up from her bed. She listened to the sound of rain hitting the eaves outside the window, looked at the raindrops outside, and frowned.

He didn't like rain, or rather, he hated rain. Every time it rained, his mood would become messy and uncomfortable.

After sitting on the bed for a while, he sighed slightly, suppressed the irritation in his heart, and slowly began to dress.

When they went downstairs, Lin Murong, the head wife of the Lin family in the southwest, was sitting in the dining hall eating breakfast. She seemed to be in a terrible mood, Frowning, his face was gloomy. The servants standing beside him were also trembling, To some extent, Lin Murong's prestige in the Lin Clan in the southwest was even stronger than Lin Fengxue's. As the biological sister of the current supreme leader of the empire, Whoever sees her, they could clearly feel the arrogance that came from her bones, Even at home, In front of Lin Fengxue, She wasn't the kind of woman to talk to, Lin Fengxue was bitter and harsh. As the head of the family, she also tried her best to be patient with her. This situation continued for many years, making Lin Murong even more domineering. Every servant in the family was afraid of her like a tiger. Therefore, although she was the mistress of the Lin family in the southwest, she was privately addressed as the old Buddha of the Lin family in the southwest.

Lin Fengxue glanced at Lin Murong and slowly sat down at the dining table. There were only three people on the table. Lin Fengxue's four sons and daughters rarely came back, so basically every day, there were only three people eating in this glorious and distinguished villa.

They were husband and wife, plus a Shentu.

"Boss."

Seeing Lin Fengxue sit down, Shentu nodded and greeted him calmly.

Lin Murong, who took a small sip of porridge, glanced at him and didn't say anything.

Lin Fengxue didn't care. She nodded and took a sip of the porridge that the servant served him. Then, she asked in a calm tone, "How is it going?"

"It's done."

Shentu nodded. He said calmly, "But time is running out, As soon as I left, the people from the Supervision Department and the Criminal Department directly went to the police station in the western district of the city. Cao Yanhua and Kong Zhengping personally led the troops there. I was afraid that they would leave behind some clues. Therefore, other than Shen Qing, none of the people who followed me survived. Now that everything was safe and sound, once Shen Qing died, no one would be able to find out who did this.

Lin Fengxue nodded, relaxed, and silently drank porridge.

Killing Shen Qing to silence him was naturally impossible in terms of technique. However, if Shen Qing was taken away by someone who pretended to be from the Supervision Department just now, even a fool would suspect him. After all, he had been supporting the Gentleman's Hall for all these years. In the eyes of the upper echelons, it was not a secret.

Killing Shen Qing just like that was undoubtedly a provocation to Guo Tianlong and Guo Zhi Nu. They would definitely pursue him to death.

It was no joke to offend those two people.

Lin Fengxue had a headache. Everything happened last night so fast that he was a little surprised, Never would he have imagined that under the circumstances where everything had been settled, there would be a flaw in the matter of hunting down that child. Although the Lin Clan in the southwest had slightly lagged behind in gaining information on the War God King's Mansion, after a night had passed, the truth of the matter, which was not a secret in itself, had already been revealed.

It was Lin Xuanyuan who saved the child.

After that, there was Operation Thunder from the Ministry of Justice.

Even though Lin Fengxue felt that an eight or nine year old child shouldn't know anything, the truth was right in front of her. Qin Shian, Lin Fengxue, and the Gentleman's Hall immediately connected into a line. Even if Lin Fengxue was beaten to death, he wouldn't believe that after Lin Xuanyuan chose to destroy the Gentleman's Hall, he wouldn't know about the relationship between the Gentleman's Hall and himself and Qin Shian.

Inadvertently, he let the other party take another good hand.

What would the opponent do with this deck of cards? He really needed to think carefully about how he could take this move.

"Shen Qing? I know this guy. Did he set up a gentleman's hall? Normally, he is quite sensible. He can basically handle some small matters. You killed him?"

Lin Murong, who was quietly eating porridge, suddenly looked up at Lin Fengxue and asked in a surprised tone.

"What do you know?"

Lin Fengxue frowned, her eyes extremely unhappy, "It's not that I want to kill him, it's that I have to kill him. Lin Xuanyuan wants to touch him, if Shen Qing bites him randomly, then it'll be even more troublesome."

"I don't understand?"

Lin Murong sneered. Originally, she had a very gentle and obedient face, but now, she sneered with an extremely uncomfortable acerbity, "Yes, I don't understand. As long as a woman knows what my family is like, it's good that my man understands it. I know you know more, but what if you know more?" All day long, Lin Xuanyuan, Lin Xuanyuan, how long has that brat only been in Nine Continents City? Less than a year, why did it seem like the entire Nine Continents City was revolving around him? Lin Fengxue, don't forget that the number one clan in the empire is the Lin Clan in the southwest, not the War God Palace. If someone old enough to be your son suppresses you, you still have the face to get angry at me? What, are you still going to go home and beat your wife when you get angry outside? "If you have the ability, go find Lin Xuanyuan. You can't even defeat Lin Xuanyuan with the resources you have. Who are you to be the first Patriarch?"

Lin Fengxue's brows furrowed. His expression was terribly gloomy. Anyone familiar with him knew that this was the gigabyte he was about to erupt. Although he had tolerated Lin Murong over the years, bringing him with him did not mean that he had no status in the Lin Clan. When he really wanted to get angry with Lin Murong, even the Empire's Supreme Head, Lin Qingtian, would not be able to speak very well.

Looking at her husband's expression, Lin Murong's heart did not tremble. Immediately, the feeling of grievance became even more intense.

In fact, although she was domineering, But she's not the kind of woman who takes pleasure in mocking her husband, The hostess of the empire's richest family, No matter how unbearable, At the very least, However, he was really tired of the word Lin Xuanyuan. She had little understanding of the situation in the empire, But in his own life, But I can clearly feel it, Ever since Lin Xuanyuan arrived at Nine Continents City, Over time, She could clearly sense the changes in the outside world. Sometimes, her words didn't seem to be very useful. Especially these days, her husband, her brother, and her friends had been talking about Lin Xuanyuan and the War God Palace all day. She was in a bad mood this morning when she heard her husband say this name again. She couldn't help but erupt.

"I'm not eating anymore!"

Lin Murong pushed the porridge in front of her angrily, stood up and strode upstairs.

Lin Fengxue looked at his wife's back and shook her head. The helplessness in her eyes flashed. She changed the topic randomly and whispered, "How did the corpse be disposed of?"

"Burned to ashes on the road."

Shentu said calmly as if he had just eaten a piece of candy.

Lin Fengxue nodded and felt relieved. The ashes were scattered on the road and washed away by the rain. Nothing was left behind.

In this way, even if Guo Zhi Nu and Guo Tian Long came looking for Shen Qing, as long as they couldn't find Shen Qing's corpse, they wouldn't be able to do anything to him.

Looks like it's time to make up another version.

Lin Fengxue thought for a moment, then took out her phone and dialed a number from the address book.

The call was quickly connected. Lin Fengxue smiled and said, "Zhen Guang, are you up?"

He Zhenguang, executive vice minister of the Ministry of Justice, Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee, He Zhenguang was an important member of the southwest faction in the Ministry of Justice. At present, the propaganda on the six ministries and the cabinet reshuffle did not stop. If the southwest faction really could not stop it, the Ministry of Justice would be renamed the Imperial Political and Judicial Commission. He Zhenguang would be the most favorable candidate to be the deputy secretary of the Political and Judicial Commission and head of the police department.

"I just woke up. Wind and snow, is it for the sake of the Gentleman's Hall?"

On the phone, He Zhenguang asked straightforwardly, Although Lin Fengxue had not entered politics for decades, his connections in the southwest faction were definitely not trivial. He could easily reach out to all aspects of the faction, and he had excellent relations with everyone in the faction. He Zhenguang was a straightforward person, and he did not hide anything from his acquaintances. He spoke very happily.

"Yes."

Lin Fengxue smiled and said, "I just received the news. It seems that Shen Qing was taken away by his trusted aides who pretended to be elites of the Supervision Department and the Criminal Department a few hours after she was captured? Is that so? Speaking of which, I know Shen Qing, and we have some cooperation. We are quite familiar with each other. However, I never thought that Shen Qing would be so knowledgeable. He just escaped after being captured. What does the Ministry of Justice think of this matter? "Shen Qing should still be hiding in Nine Continents City for the time being. He can't escape. If he needs help, the Lin Clan in the southwest is willing to help the Ministry of Justice find Shen Qing. However, we'll have to wait until the arrest warrant is issued."

"Run?"

On the phone, He Zhenguang was silent for a while and asked thoughtfully.

"Didn't you run away?"

Lin Fengxue asked calmly.

A few seconds later, He Zhenguang smiled meaningfully. "Yes, Shen Qing has been operating in Nine Continents City for many years, Some of his loyal subordinates dared to pretend to be people from the Supervision Department and the Criminal Department to take him away, It's also possible, Sigh, the comrades in the ministry are talking about killing people and silencing them, '"Haha, especially Comrade Yan Hua, who is a criminal investigator. He obviously has some conspiracy theories. If we follow the path of killing people and silencing them, we won't be able to find anything in the end. Shen Qing has also escaped. This way, the wanted notice for Shen Qing will be sent out before noon. Snowstorm, your connections are wide, so help me a lot."

"Of course."

Lin Fengxue chuckled and said, "Let's not talk about the police and the people's family, just our relationship. Since you have spoken, I will do my best no matter what."

He Zhenguang smiled heartily and hung up the phone.

Lin Fengxue casually placed her phone by the table. He smiled and lowered his head to eat porridge. Once Shen Qing died, After destroying the corpse, No matter what, the Punishment Department couldn't find him, Moreover, with his death, all the things that he had instructed the Gentleman's Hall to do in the past had been blamed by the Gentleman's Hall. More importantly, the clues that Lin Xuanyuan wanted to investigate through Shen Qing had been cut off. At the very least, no one would know about what he had instructed the Gentleman's Hall to kill that child.

As for Qin Shian...

Lin Fengxue shook her head. Before she could think too much, the housekeeper of the villa walked in quickly and said respectfully, "Mr. Lin, Mayor Qin is here."
