From a distance, Lin Qingyue's voice could be heard clearly. There was no need to mention how loud it was at such close range.
Jiang Han raised an eyebrow. "Lin General claims I harmed you. Where's the evidence?"
Lin Qingyue gritted her teeth. "No evidence, but that temple was arranged by you, wasn't it?"
Jiang Han scoffed. "What temple? What are you talking about?"
At that moment, Lin Qingyue felt an overwhelming frustration. After leaving Lin Manor, she had come to find Jiang Han to inquire about the situation. However, on her way here, she was stopped by a member of the Lin Family Army.
"General, there’s nothing at that temple. While there are indeed many bones nearby, my subordinate discovered a beggar hiding there, barely surviving!"
According to the man's account, someone had moved in a few days ago with three bags of grain. After that, no one knew where they went.
The beggar had been looking for food and decided to sneak around the temple. Whenever no one was watching, he would quietly come in and grab a handful of grain to eat.
Not long after he started eating, Lin Qingyue arrived with her people.
Upon hearing this, Lin Qingyue was furious. "There was never any grain before?"
The Lin Family Army member nodded. "That old man doesn’t seem like he’s lying. He came looking for food and ended up getting caught by us."
With this revelation, there was no room for doubt. While she had previously suspected Jiang Han back at Lin Manor, now it was clear—Jiang Han was behind this!
But what was the purpose?!
In her rage, Lin Qingyue drew her long knife from her waist and lunged directly at Jiang Han.
Yan Dong was equally skilled. She pulled out a small knife and struck at Lin Qingyue's wrist.
Lin Qingyue's grip loosened, and the long knife clattered to the ground with a sharp sound that made Jiang Han chuckle.
"Is Lin General so idle?"
"Minister of Justice just arrived; do you need me to call him again?"
Jiang Han finished speaking, and Lin Qingyue burst into laughter.
"You, a mere merchant, think you can summon the Minister of Justice? Do you even know what kind of position she holds? How could she possibly come here? Even if there were a major case to investigate, she would send a subordinate to handle it."
Luo Yuhua coming in person? Jiang Han really overestimated himself!
Jiang Han rolled his eyes, too lazy to explain anything to someone like her.
Yan Dong noticed that the room they had just tidied up was now in disarray thanks to Lin Qingyue.
So, General Lin has nothing better to do than question me about whether I've harmed you?
Lin Qingyue was left speechless. She had only wanted to confront Jiang Han and ended up getting flustered instead.
With a shout, she commanded, "Charge!"
The Lin Family Army rushed into Jiang Han's shop, and Yan Dong immediately positioned herself protectively beside him. However, Jiang Han pushed her away.
"At this time, Luo should not be far. Call her back to take charge."
Yan Dong felt helpless; she was afraid that if she left Jiang Han's side for even a moment, that crazy woman Lin Qingyue would come at him with a blade.
But Jiang Han remained resolute.
Yan Dong gritted her teeth and quickly left to pursue Luo Yuhua. The Lin Family Army tried to block her, but with Yan Dong's skills, escaping from them was a piece of cake.
Once she had swiftly departed, Lin Qingyue began to doubt: "Is Luo really coming?"
Jiang Han nodded.
"What does Luo want?"
Jiang Han chuckled. "Haven't you heard? Your beloved Langya Prince Heir's subordinate fell ill from eating something bad. I’m just calling the Minister of Justice here to seek justice for Langya Wangfu!"
Lin Qingyue's expression darkened as she coldly replied, "You dare frame Langya Wangfu? If they wanted to report it, they would do so themselves. What need is there for your false pretense here? It seems you’ve fabricated evidence just waiting for the Langya Prince to take the bait!"
Jiang Han felt that Lin Qingyue truly belonged to a different realm; despite her impressive skills, her mind was not particularly sharp. It seemed she had been manipulated by the Langya Prince. With someone of such strength in the Langya Wangfu, could I still provide false testimony?
Lin Qingyue slammed her thigh. "Zhuo Zishi! It must be you who framed the Wangfu!"
Jiang Han twitched at the corners of his mouth. "How could I have done that?"
It had to be said that changing the subject was effective; Jiang Han suffered no harm, and Luo Yuhua returned.
"Lord Lin?"
With so many Lin Family Army members present, did His Majesty send you to raid Shopkeeper Jiang's shop?
Lin Qingyue took a deep breath. Goodness, it really was Luo Yuhua.
Luo Yuhua had just uncovered her deputy general's matter, and now she felt somewhat displeased with him as well. This wasn't about His Majesty; it was personal grievances between Ben Jiangjun and Shopkeeper Jiang.
Luo Yuhua smirked. "Lin General, what a show of power! You bring so many people to smash someone else's shop over personal grievances? Do you think our Great Zhou has no laws?"
It was surprising to see such anger on Luo Yuhua's face.
Lin Qingyue's temper flared as well. "This is a matter between Shopkeeper Jiang and me; there's no need for you to meddle, Luo."
Luo Yuhua, who had initially been reluctant to get involved, exploded at this point. "Then according to the law, I will take Lin General with me. You have no reason to vandalize someone else's shop and even insult ordinary citizens. Today, Lin General will accompany me."
Oh, and let’s not forget to compensate for the damages caused by Lin General.
Lin Qingyue thought that perhaps the other party was just speaking out of anger. She didn’t expect them to actually have the Guard Army surround them.
"What do you mean by this?"
Luo Yuhua snorted coldly. "What do I mean? I want to show you what our Great Zhou Law is all about!"
