Chapter 1328: Detector

Wen Yujing told her about the dispute between the three of them. In the end, Lin Yuelan asked the question.

Wen Yujing's expression froze as she looked at Lin Yuelan in disbelief.

Just based on the fact that Yuan Shutong, that b * tch, was from China, she could tell that her dowry was in the bag.

"Tell me, isn't it?" Lin Yuelan didn't have the patience to wait for her to think before answering.

Wen Yujing bit her lips and replied," Yes!"

Lin Yuelan asked again, "What was in her bag at that time?"

Wen Yujing shook her head without thinking." I don't know!"

"Just now, you said that the thing that supported the huge expenses of the Duke's estate for more than twenty years was Madam Yuan's dowry. What is that?"Lin Yuelan asked.

"It's something called a detector."Wen Yujing replied truthfully," I've never seen that thing before. I've only heard Jiang Yunfeng mention it before!"

Hearing this, Lin Yualan could guess Yuan Shutong's identity in China.

"What about the detector?"

"Jiang Yunfeng sold it away!"

"Where did he sell it?"

"The Third Prince of the Black Clouds Kingdom!" Wen Yujing replied.

When he heard that it was sold to the Third Prince of the Black Clouds Kingdom, Jiang Zhennan immediately became furious.

The Black Clouds Kingdom was a neighboring country of the Longyan Kingdom, but it was an ambitious country. Several generations of emperors had always wanted to invade the Longyan Kingdom and make it their own territory. For this reason, they had endless means to target the emperor of the Longyan Kingdom, such as assassination, poisoning, and honey traps... They tried to cause internal strife in the imperial court and even crossed the border many times to start wars in an attempt to occupy the territory of the Longyan Kingdom.

Fortunately, His Majesty was wise and saw Jiang Zhennan's military talent. He secretly promoted him to general and commanded hundreds of thousands of soldiers to resist their invasion.

Jiang Zhennan, this military talent, did not disappoint him. It did not take long for him to drive the Black Clouds Kingdom's army back to the Black Clouds Kingdom.

In the past ten years, because of Jiang Zhennan's protection, the Black Clouds Kingdom did not dare to cross the border.

However, Jiang Zhennan knew that the Black Clouds Kingdom had not given up. He was always on guard.

Everyone knew that the Black Clouds Kingdom and the Longyan Kingdom were hostile countries, and even merchants had to be wary of doing business.

He did not expect Jiang Yunfeng to sell it to the Black Clouds Kingdom. Moreover, it seemed that the value was not low.

Thinking of this, Jiang Zhennan asked in confusion," Yue 'er, what is that detector?"

Lin Yuelan explained," It's something that can detect if there's metal underground."

"Metal?" Jiang Zhennan was still puzzled.

"Yes, for example, gold, silver, copper, and iron. They are all metals. This detector can detect where these things are." Lin Yuelan explained.

Upon hearing Lin Yuelan's explanation, Jiang Zhennan's pupils constricted violently. He found it unbelievable.

There was actually such a magical thing in this world!

It was also Wen Yujing's first time hearing about the effects of this thing.

Only now did she understand why such a small thing could be exchanged for 200,000 taels of silver!

Gold, silver, copper, and iron, these things were huge wealth for any country.

She did not expect Jiang Yunfeng to sell this to a hostile country. What was the difference between this and treason?

"Do you know what else is in the bag?"Lin Yuelan asked again.

Wen Yujing shook her head and said," I'm not sure!"

Lin Yuelan looked at her suspiciously and said," Really? If I find out that you're lying to me, I can only tell you that you'll never see your daughter again!"

Wen Yujing said angrily," What are you going to do to my daughter?"

Lin Yuelan sneered and said," Then it's up to her mother."

Wen Yujing's expression changed. She thought for a moment and finally said honestly," I don't know what else is in his bag. But I once saw Jiang Yunfeng take out two pieces of paper from his bag!"

"What paper?" Lin Yuelan warned her sternly," Wen Yujing, you'd better explain yourself clearly. Don't forget anything. Don't blame me if I can't remember what I promised!" Lin Yuelan was referring to her promise to protect their lives.

Wen Yujing was shocked and immediately said in a panic," Lin Yuelan, this is what you promised me. You can't go back on your word!"

Lin Yuelan sneered," I will not go back on my word! However, the prerequisite is that it depends on your performance!"

Hearing Lin Yuelan's words, Wen Yujing's expression stiffened. Fear flashed in her eyes. She bit her lower lip and said," Those two pieces of paper look like blueprints!"

Lin Yuelan had some guesses in her heart when she heard that.

Then, she asked," You said that Jiang Yunfeng seemed to be in contact with someone about gold mines and iron mines, right?"

"Yes!" Wen Yujing replied.

"One last question!" Lin Yuelan said," How did you kill Madam Yuan?"

Wen Yujing was stunned for a moment before she said," As long as Princess promises me that you won't take revenge on me, I'll tell you! Otherwise, I won't tell you even if you kill me!"

Jiang Zhennan was there. It was impossible for him not to take revenge on her after hearing about his mother's matter. Therefore, she had to get Lin Yuelan's promise and guarantee!

Lin Yuelan chuckled and said," Wen Yujing, it seems like you still don't understand the situation. You're no longer qualified to talk about any conditions with me."

Hearing Lin Yuelan's overbearing words, Wen Yujing was truly furious and resentful. However, she felt even more helpless. The lives of their family of four seemed to be completely in Lin Yuelan's hands now. She would die if she said it or not. In that case, she might as well not say it!

Lin Yuelan looked at Wen Yujing's expression and sneered." It seems that you don't plan to tell me, right? Alright then, this princess doesn't intend to force you. As long as you answer my question, I'll let you go!"

When Wen Yujing heard this, she was delighted. Then, she nodded and said," Go ahead!"

"Was Madam Yuan killed by you or Jiang Yunfeng?"Lin Yuelan asked sharply.

Wen Yujing's face stiffened, and the corner of her mouth twitched. She thought to herself, 'How different is this question from the previous one? Wasn't she still asking how that b * tch Yuan Shutong died?'

Wen Yujing thought for a moment and said," Jiang Yunfeng has a share, and so do I!"

Lin Yuelan nodded to show that she understood.

Then, she said," Alright, I'll let you leave now. Whether you live or die depends on your own life!"

After saying this, she shouted loudly," Men, let them out!"

As soon as she shouted, soldiers immediately came over to take them out.

When Wen Yujing, Jiang Zhenye, and Jiang Suhuai heard that they could go out, they were overjoyed.

They could finally survive!

After they left, Lin Yuelan walked up to Jiang Zhennan, held his hand, and said," Mother's matter has finally been investigated! But Brother Nan, will you blame me for letting them go?"

Jiang Zhennan shook his head and said," Why would I blame you? I believe that you must have your reasons for letting them leave!"

Lin Yuelan looked at him seriously and said," Brother Nan, believe me. They will get their retribution soon!"

Jiang Zhennan nodded and replied seriously," Yes, I believe you, Yue 'er!"

Then, he thought of something and asked," Yue 'er, what exactly is in my mother's bag?"

Lin Yuelan said," If I'm not wrong, Mother is most likely a metal detector agent, and the two blueprints in her bag are most likely the locations of the gold mine and the iron mine."

When Jiang Zhennan heard this, his pupils constricted violently again. He asked in disbelief," How is this possible? She's a woman, she..." Jiang Zhennan did not ask where she got the ability to do so.

However, Lin Yuelan understood what he meant!

Lin Yuelan said," If Mother were just a local woman, she certainly wouldn't know the geographical location of the gold and iron mines. However, she's from China. As a metal detector agent, it's very possible for her to do these with her detector!"

Jiang Zhennan asked curiously," Yue 'er, is China the country in your dream?"

Lin Yuelan nodded and said," Yes!"

Lin Yuelan looked outside and said," We have to go to the palace now! Otherwise, the old emperor will think that we are treasonous. After all, you saved people from his imperial edict, which is detrimental to his dignity as an emperor. It is better to explain first!"

Jiang Zhennan nodded in agreement. Then, it seemed to have thought of something and asked again, "Yue 'er, then Jiang… Did you let him go on purpose?"

Lin Yuelan blinked her eyes playfully and said with a smile," Of course! Did he really think that he could live well after harming Mother?"
