Chapter 1611: Tell the Truth!
Translator: Lonelytree
Lin Yuelan instantly looked at Jiang Zhennan, who nodded at her.
Lin Yuelan nodded and said, Alright, since things have come to this, I wont hide it from you anymore.
Liu Yichen immediately noticed that Lin Yuelans expression had become very serious. Then he heard, Xiao Jingrui came here because he wanted to find two mines!
Liu Yichens pupils constricted.
No matter how he guessed, he could not guess the truth.
The mine
Liu Yichens expression instantly turned serious. He asked seriously, Mine?
What mine?
A gold mine and an iron mine! Lin Yuelan didnt hide anything.
What? This time, Liu Yichen stood up from his seat in shock. Gold mine? Thats right! Lin Yuelan nodded.
Liu Yichen was confused again. He asked, Hes the Second Prince of the Black Clouds Kingdom. How did he know about these two mines? They were clearly in Longyan Country.
Lin Yuelan sneered and said, Hes from the Black Clouds Kingdom. However, we found out that he has been lurking in Longyan Country since three years ago. Its just that no one discovered him!
Liu Yichen was surprised again. He started hiding here three years ago?!
Lin Yuelan nodded and said, Thats right! Not only that, but we also found out that he was behind the Zhou familys rebellion!
Back then, Zhou Dehong was arrogant when he died. He even pointed his finger at the old emperors nose and said that he would wait for him in h.e.l.l soon.
Obviously, he believed that the person behind him would definitely be able to pull Yuwen Longyan down and even replace the entire Yuwen royal family.
In fact, Zhou Dehong was greatly guilty of treason.
However, all the members of the Zhou family were dead. Moreover, their families had been raided, and three clans had been exterminated. It was impossible to do anything to them.
Yuwen Longyan felt uneasy when he heard Zhou Dehongs words before he died.
Therefore, he asked Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan to investigate in secret.
As a result, they found Xiao Jingruis trace.
However, whether it was them or His Majesty, they would not be so naive to think that Xiao Jingruis hand was only extended to the Zhou Family.
It was only because Zhou Dehong of the Zhou Family was so foolish and ambitious that he was the first to seek death. He used the Zhou Family to test the waters. If the rebellion succeeded, Xiao Jingrui could secretly control it. If it failed, Xiao Jingrui would not suffer any loss.
When Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan had reported the situation to Yuwen Longyan, the three of them had unanimously decided not to make a sound for now. They would wait patiently and see who else in the imperial court would become the sinner of treason.
Therefore, until now, no one knew that there was someone else behind the Zhou familys rebellion.
Liu Yichen frowned when he heard Lin Yuelans words. He asked doubtfully,
They started hiding three years ago. Didnt anyone in the imperial court notice that something was wrong?
Lin Yuelan shook her head and said, Xiao Jingrui is very cunning. Neither he nor his minions have revealed a trace of weakness! Otherwise, someone would have noticed that something was wrong with Zhou Dehong.
If she hadnt suddenly appeared and ruined Zhou Dehongs original plan, they would have been defeated.
Liu Yichen thought about Xiao Jingruis means and believed that he might indeed have such ability.
But, how did he know about gold mines and iron mines?Liu Yichen asked in confusion.
Lin Yuelan glanced at Jiang Zhennan and continued, Thats what we wanted to talk about! Then, she looked at Liu Yichen seriously and asked, Arent you curious why Jiang Yunfeng is with Xiao Jingrui?
These two people looked like they would never be together in eight lifetimes, but they just had to be together.
Liu Yichen frowned slightly. Ever since he knew that Jiang Yunfeng and Xiao Jingrui were together, it had become a question in his heart.
Later, he guessed that it was because of Jiang Zhennan.
Jiang Yunfeng was Jiang Zhennans biological father, and Jiang Zhennan and Xiao Jingrui were sworn enemies. Therefore, Xiao Jingrui wanted to control Jiang Yunfeng and Jiang Zhennan so that Jiang Zhennan would not act rashly.
But now, it seemed like that wasnt the reason.
Liu Yichen asked, Whats the reason?
Lin Yuelan didnt hide anything.. Xiao Jingrui knew about these two mines because of Jiang Yunfeng!
