Jiang Lin asked Wei Yunjia, "Didn't Yunxue stay together with the two of you?"
The maid Baiqiang spoke for Wei Yunjia, "We were together all the time before, just before the young madam came, Miss Yunxue said she was going to change her clothes, so Baicha went with her."
Baiqiang said suspiciously, "They have been gone for a while, they should come back."
The housekeeper of the Yin family who was accompanying them immediately called someone to look for someone. Jiang Lin had a bad premonition in his heart, and he felt that it was probably one step too late.
He asked again, "Did you meet any strange or familiar people today?"
Wei Yunwan hesitated for a moment before saying, "When I got off the carriage at the door, Yunxue said she saw Mother, but Yunjia and I didn't see it, I thought Yunxue was wrong."
Wei Yunjia nodded, she really didn't see it.
Zhou Shi, Jiang Lin thought in his heart, she really came here.
The servants of Yin's family searched all over the mansion but didn't find anyone, and no one came in or out after asking the concierge, which was strange.
Jiang Lin asked the housekeeper of the Yin family, "I want to see Master Yin."
People were lost in the mansion, if they couldn't be found, the Yin family would become the next Qinghe County Wangfu, the housekeeper knew the seriousness of this matter, so naturally he wouldn't refuse, so he hurriedly led the way for Jiang Lin.
Jiang Lin asked Yin Feifei to help take care of the two sisters, and then he went to meet Master Yin with the housekeeper.
The high ranking official of Dali Temple was called Yin Ji, and he was already a member of the third rank official when he was less than forty. As long as he didn't commit any crimes and didn't stand in the wrong team, he would have a bright future.
Yin Ji had already got the news. He didn't expect that someone would dare to attack in his house, and he apologized to Jiang Lin when they met, "This is my family's fault. Don't worry, Young Master Jiang. I will find that little girl as soon as possible."
Jiang Lin thanked him, and then said, "Master Yin, I want to talk to you about something."
The housekeeper was very tactful, he quickly closed the door and retreated, still guarding outside, in case someone came to eavesdrop.
Jiang Lin also intentionally lowered his voice, "Master Yin, I know who is the mastermind behind what happened today. Jiang Lin would like to ask Master Yin for a favor.
Yin Ji wondered, "What's the matter?"
"I would like to ask Master Yin to re-investigate the matter of the quarry outside Shengjing City being struck by lightning, and give justice to hundreds of people who died in vain."
Since Yin Ji could sit on the position of a high ranking official in Dali government at this age, once he heard the word died in vain, he knew that there was something tricky in it."
Yin Ji sat down and said to Jiang Lin: "Tell me what you know in detail. If they really died in vain, I will report this matter to the emperor and re-investigate the case."
He felt that it was unlucky for so many people to be killed by lightning. This case was closed, and they died when they died. The blame could only be blamed for God's lack of eyesight. Hundreds of people died, but there was no splash at all.
Jiang Lin didn't say anything about the second prince's private soldiers, but Jiang Lin said that people were killed by explosion, and that the corpses were burned to reduce the number of deaths.
Jiang Lin said: "Master Yin has been investigating the case for many years, so you can send someone to the quarry to find out whether what Jiang Lin said is true or not."
Yin Ji didn't agree or refuse, but asked, "Because you know the secret of the quarry, so someone wants to target the Wei family, did someone kidnap that little girl to blackmail you?"
Jiang Lin replied: "Exactly, not only that, The Wei mansion was on fire today, and someone entered the room andtried to take away another child. After that Wei Yunzhao sensed something was wrong, that's why I came to pick up the little girls in the family and went back early. "
But it was still a step late.
Yin Ji said, "No one comes in or out, so they must still be inside the house. Don't worry, if no one can be found today, the Yin family will not let them go."
Yin Ji called the housekeeper in, and asked him to bring the whole house to search for someone. When looking in a room, never missed any corner, be sure to find the person.
Jiang Lin thanked Yin Ji again, "
Master Yin is worried. Master Yin can feel relief, we will not implicate the Yin family in the matter of the quarry. Master Yin only needs to wait two more days to find an opportunity to submit a letter."
Before he said that he would not let the second prince go, then he would never let him go.
This man had more handles than the crown prince, and there were holes everywhere, and poking any one of the hole would make him leak.
Yin Ji still didn't agree with Jiang Lin's words, he didn't fully believe Jiang Lin's words, so he had to judge for himself whether it was true or not.
The Yin family searched for someone from noon to dusk, and they really almost turned over the floor tiles. In the end, the person was found in the Buddhist hall of the old lady of the Yin family.
No one thought that a woman like Zhou Shi could carry an adult maid and an eightyears old child into Old madam Yin's Buddhist hall without anyone noticing.
When the housekeeper came to report, Jiang Lin noticed that Yin Ji's face was very bad, but he couldn't take care of the Yin's family affairs, so he went to see Wei Yunxue.
Both Wei Yunxue and the servant girl were knocked out, with a big bump on the back of their head, and there were marks of pinching on their necks, and they were a little scared when they woke up.
Jiang Lin went to make amends to the young ladies who had been delayed for a long time, and then brought the three sisters back to the mansion. Of course, Zhou Shi was also taken back.
Zhou Shi looked a bit embarrassed and haggard. Obviously, she didn't live a good life after leaving the Wei mansion.
Before Jiang Lin could ask her, Zhou Shi herself complained about her suffering, "I also didn't want to do it, but I was forced to do so. Yunxue is my own, so how could I be willing to harm her?"
Jiang Lin looked at her.Seeing the red marks on the little girl's neck from being pinched by hands, he sneered, "You regret that you didn't strangle her to death directly.
"Why?, the Zhou family didn't find you a good man?, and even asked you to come out to do this kind of thing. They thought you ate too much at home, so they thought of this way to send you to die?"
Didn't know where Jiang Lin's words hit Zhou Shi's heart. Zhou Shi's eyes turned red. She cried and said to Jiang Lin, "I regret it."
