I Woke the Sick and Disabled Prince on Our Wedding Night
Chapter 361 - 361 Scheme361 Scheme
Bai Guo couldn’t answer this question at the moment.
The information they had now was limited.
However, although she didn’t know much now, Lin Suisui didn’t dare to be careless. As she arranged for someone to go to Mrs. Luo’s place and instruct her family to be careful, she also asked someone to keep an eye on the mother and daughter in the courtyard beside her to prevent any accidents.
As for the rest, she planned to bide her time and wait for Lu Ze to return before making a decision.
Uexpectedly, what Lin Suisui saw wasn’t Lu Ze’s return, but the soldiers in armor.
Hundreds of murderous soldiers surrounded the small mountain village.
Seeing that the situation wasn’t right, Lin Suisui asked Bai Guo about the placement of Mrs. Luo and the others.
“Don’t worry. I’ve already gotten someone to send them safely into the forest in the afternoon. However, Old Master Fang and Mr. Fang didn’t agree to leave. They said that if anything happened, they could help if they stayed behind.
Su Le tried to persuade them, but it was useless. He could only let them stay.”
Lin Suisui nodded. When she heard that Mrs. Luo and the others were already settled, she heaved a sigh of relief. Then, she said to Bai Guo, “These people don’t have good intentions, but I don’t think they’re here for us.”
When Su Le heard this, he also agreed. At the same time, he gained a different understanding of the crown princess in front of him. She seemed to be shrewder and smarter than he thought.
“They probably want to silence me.” After Lin Suisui analyzed the current situation, she looked up at Su Le. “Go find the village chief and tell him that I want to see him.”
At this moment, those soldiers had surrounded the area but hadn’t attacked yet, so she still had time to come up with a countermeasure.
The village chief also realized that something was wrong. Just as he was thinking about how to deal with the situation, Su Le brought him to Lin Suisui.
“Village Chief, let’s not beat around the bush. Not only do we know your identities and motives, but the general who entered the mountain also knows.
“So, what do you think your outcome will be?”
Lin Suisui didn’t exchange any pleasantries with the village chief and directly told the village chief why she had invited him over.
“Madam, I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Although everything had been exposed, the village chief was still stubbornly resisting.
Although he knew that the possibility was low, what if Lin Suisui was really just bluffing him?
Moreover, he still had hope for getting off the hook.
Although those soldiers surrounded the entire village and refused to communicate with them, what if they refused to talk to them only because the person in charge wasn’t here yet?
At this moment, the person in the most danger was the madam in front of him!
What did this have to do with them?
“To be arranged by your master to be in charge of this village means you’re not a fool.” Lin Suisui didn’t need to guess the village chief’s attitude to know why he had made such a decision.
She couldn’t help but smile as she looked at the village chief in contempt and continued, “Since you’re so smart, you can probably understand what the most important thing to do is if you were the head of the family and everything was already on the verge of being exposed.
Capture me and threaten my husband?
You’re a man too, so you naturally understand what’s most important to an ambitious man!
In the face of your future and the life of a woman, what will you choose? Do you think my husband will give up this opportunity to carry out his ambitions and submit to your family’s threat instead?
“Besides, there are some concessions that can’t be made. Once there’s a beginning, you will never be able to break free again.”
“Then why did you call me over to tell me this?” The village chief was a little confused by Lin Suisui’s words. He stared at her for while, but still couldn’t understand her thoughts and motives.
Could it be that she wanted him to pass a message to someone outside?
“Of course I want to cooperate with you to find a way out.” Lin Suisui looked at the village chief as she replied very frankly, “If I fall into your hands now, I’ll most likely die.”
However, Village Chief, you and these hundreds of villagers will also become victims like me.
Therefore, in order to survive, shouldn’t we join forces now?”
“Madam, your joke is not funny at all. We’re here on orders from the main families. Even if the main families send people over, they’ll only invite you over to talk. What does it have to do with us small fries?
As for silencing people…
Madam, do you know how many villages are involved in this matter?
In total, five villages are involved. There aren’t just a few hundred people, but more than a thousand! Moreover, the people sent here are not only slaves of the main families, but also relatives of the main families!
Can they kill all of them?
“Madam, you’re exaggerating things!”
At this moment, the village chief was still trying his best to struggle as a last-ditch effort. It wasn’t that he had not thought about the possibility of what Lin Suisui had said, but…
He was unwilling to believe it.
Because that possibility was too terrifying! That was more than a thousand lives! He felt that no matter how crazy the main families were, they probably couldn’t make such a terrifying decision!
“Do you know what kind of crime hiding a silver mine and not reporting it is?” Of course, Lin Suisui understood why the village chief was still so skeptical at this moment, so she wasn’t anxious at all. She shattered the village chief’s delusions once again. “It’s equivalent to a felony.
If the crime is proven, they’ll be executed!
The lives of thousands of servants are nothing compared to the lives and wealth of your main family.
As long as you guys are around, the risk of their crime of hiding the silver mine will exist! if you guys are all gone, no matter how heartbroken your master is, he only needs to hand over the silver mine and say that it was just discovered.
He might even be rewarded by the Imperial Court!”
