After rebirth, the prince fell into the hands of the princess again

The disaster relief silver disappeared in the back mountain. Now the only place they can get it is the back mountain. This is the information obtained by Tianji Pavilion, and no one knows it except the people who took action.

Rong Yan glanced at the two people who were having fun playing on the swings, did not disturb them, and turned into the house.

"Achu, do you smell a nice scent? It's quite fragrant."

Tang Mumu was a little confused. The same smell could be found in the yard behind the court and also here.

"I smell it. There's also this smell in the yard behind the court. It's like some special fragrance."

Tang Mumu got off the swing. For some reason, the fragrance made her feel upset, but the fragrance smelled good.

"What's wrong, Mumu? Is there something wrong with the incense?"

"I don't know. I just think the fragrance is very uncomfortable, but there's nothing wrong with the smell."

Ji Chu sniffed it carefully and indeed did not feel uncomfortable. "Maybe it is just an uncommon kind of incense. I didn't like burning incense before and I don't know much about it. It should be the incense used by ordinary people."

Tang Mumu nodded and didn't think about it any further.

Seeing Rong Yan and Song Jinyu standing by the window in the backyard, Tang Mumu and Ji Chu looked at each other and walked over.

"Your Highness, have you discovered anything?" Tang Mumu walked to Rong Yan's side. He and Song Jinyu had been looking, as if they were sure that there was something wrong here.

"No, everything here is normal. There's no way anyone is ambushing us. I think we have to wait until Lord Lin comes back to find out the details." This time, Rong Yan gave Tang Mumu a good answer.

"Maybe we are overthinking it. Lord Lin seems to be a good man, and he is popular among the people. He would not do such a heinous thing as stealing disaster relief money."

As for Lin Qingyuan, Tang Mumu didn't want him to be the criminal who stole the disaster relief money from the bottom of her heart. Lin Qingyuan gave her a somewhat torn feeling, as if there were two people living in his body, but both of them hoped that the matter could be resolved well.

"It's useless for us to make random guesses now. Let's wait until Lord Lin returns from the yamen." Song Jinyu came out from the inner room and said.

"That's the only way. Why don't we go out and find the people first and ask them more about their situations and find out more about Lord Lin's deeds?"

Anyway, it's still early and Lord Lin is still busy with official business in the yamen, so they don't want to disturb him.

"Let's go." Rong Yan and Tang Mumu had the same idea.

Tang Mumu followed Rong Yan, she always felt that Rong Yan was a little strange.

"Song Jinyu, if the relief money cannot be found, what will happen if Rong Yan messes up the case that the emperor gave him? Will the emperor blame him? Why do I feel that Rong Yan seems a little impatient?"

Song Jinyu was helpless. Rong Yan was right in front of him. Why did he catch him? What could he say? He couldn't say that Rong Yan was really impatient.

"After all, this is something that the emperor is concerned about, and it also concerns the people of Huai County. Of course, Ayan is anxious. We have no clue at all now, so it is normal for him to be anxious. Don't worry, I'll go ask."

After Song Jinyu finished speaking, he ran away. Tang Mumu frowned and felt even more uneasy. It seemed that Song Jinyu was avoiding her questions.

Several people asked almost everyone they met, and after running for nearly an hour, they got the same answer. Lin Qingyuan had a very high reputation in Huai County, and the people almost worshipped him as a god. But because Lin Qingyuan's reputation in Huai County was too good, Tang Mumu felt a little uneasy, but she couldn't tell exactly why.

They returned to the Lin Mansion before dinner. Lin Qingyuan had already instructed the kitchen of the Lin Mansion to prepare dinner. Although it was not delicacies from land and sea, it included both meat and vegetables. It was the best meal they had eaten along the way.

Tang Mumu was already starving. She rolled up her sleeves and prepared to have a good meal. When she glanced at the people around her, she smiled embarrassedly, put her sleeves down, and sat down obediently.

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time. I really can't spare time due to the affairs of the government. I hope that the prince, Lord Song, the princess and Madam Song will not be dissatisfied."

Lin Qingyuan raised his wine cup and stood up, then drank the wine in the cup after he finished speaking.

Rong Yan was about to drink when someone pulled his sleeve. He lowered his eyes and saw Tang Mumu staring at him angrily and shaking his head as if in a warning. Rong Yan couldn't help but find it a little funny, so he ignored him and continued drinking.

"You..." Tang Mumu didn't know what to say to him and could only glare at him.

"Nothing, nothing. Lord Lin is very busy, and we are sorry to bother you. Right now, the relief money is the most important thing, and the rest is not a big deal."

Song Jinyu has always been very perceptive. Seeing that Rong Yan and Tang Mumu were not getting along, he quickly spoke up to change the subject. He couldn't continue to quarrel in front of Lord Lin as before and lose face for the Rong Palace.

Tang Mumu also glared at Song Jinyu. He was the only one who could handle trouble.

"Lord Lin, could you tell us the details about the disaster relief silver? Do you know where it was lost? Can the people who were present at the time find it?" The person asking the question was Tang Mumu, who never liked to beat around the bush.

"Princess, the matter of the disaster relief silver is strange. It was not lost in Huai County. According to reports from officers and soldiers, the disaster relief silver was lost during transportation." Lin Qingyuan treated Tang Mumu very respectfully.

Tang Mumu glanced at Rong Yan, and seeing that he had no expression, she continued to ask, "Where was it lost? It can't have disappeared out of thin air, right?"

"That... I don't know. The soldiers who accompanied them did not leave any survivors. I have no idea when and where they went missing."

Tang Mumu and Ji Chu looked at each other. According to Lin Qingyuan, the disaster relief silver really disappeared out of thin air.

"But these days I have found out that the last time someone saw the transport team was in Liancheng. Liancheng is not far from Huai County. I think there may be some traces in Liancheng."

Tang Mumu stared into Lin Qingyuan's eyes, but the latter didn't dare to look her in the eye. She always felt that what he said was a bit strange. Did Lin Qingyuan mean for them to turn back to Liancheng?

The atmosphere at the dinner table was unusually quiet. The silence was broken by shouting from outside. It sounded like a girl crying. When several people looked outside, they saw Lin Qingyuan had already stood up and left his seat with a sullen face.

"What are you doing? Didn't I tell you to keep an eye on the young lady? How did you let her run away? Why don't you send the young lady back home quickly?"

It was also the first time that the maid saw the master so angry, so she hurriedly pulled the woman who was about to break into the house back. For a moment, the woman's crying became louder. Lin Qingyuan was so anxious that he turned around in circles, but he had no way to deal with this situation.

"Let the person go first." Tang Mumu said. As soon as the maid let go, the woman quickly ran behind Tang Mumu and hid, staring at the person who had just pulled her.

"This is my daughter. I am sorry to have embarrassed you all. I will have her sent away now."
