Chapter 630 "Where is the letter now?"

Lin Cheng's face was a little tired, but his eyes were shining with excitement. He held Jiang Luo's hand and whispered, "Xiao Luo, the emperor has appointed me as the General of Zhenbei, commanding the northern border defense army."

Jiang Luo was surprised and happy when he heard this, but then he became a little worried: "This is a good thing, but the Northern Border Guard has always been the focus of competition among the princes. Why would the emperor give you such an important task?"

Lin Cheng's eyes flashed with a hint of deep meaning, and he whispered: "The emperor asked me to remain neutral and not get involved in party disputes. This is our opportunity."

Jiang Luo's heart was beating fast. He held Lin Cheng's hand tightly and whispered, "Xiao Lin, you must be careful. Although the Northern Border Guard is important, it is also a double-edged sword. If you are not careful, you will be killed."

Lin Cheng nodded, his eyes firm: "Xiao Luo, don't worry. I will act cautiously and will never let anyone take advantage of me."

Jiang Luo was still a little uneasy, but he knew that Lin Cheng's decision could not be changed. He leaned gently in Lin Cheng's arms and whispered, "No matter what, you must be careful. Only when you are safe can I do other things with peace of mind."

A hint of tenderness flashed in Lin Cheng's eyes. He gently stroked Jiang Luo's hair and whispered, "I know that even for you, I will be careful to protect myself."

However, as the two embraced each other, an undercurrent was quietly surging in the palace. In the Fourth Prince's residence, the Fifth Princess was having a secret conversation with the Fourth Prince.

"Fourth brother, Lin Cheng was named the General of Zhenbei. This may not be a good thing for us." The fifth princess frowned slightly, with a hint of worry in her tone.

The fourth prince sneered, his eyes flashing with a hint of viciousness: "Although Lin Cheng holds military power, if he remains neutral, he will not pose a threat to us. However, if he doesn't appreciate it, don't blame me for being rude."

A trace of worry flashed across the eyes of the Fifth Princess: "Fourth brother, Lin Cheng is not someone that easy to deal with. He has a special relationship with Ci Jinglin. If we touch him, I'm afraid it will lead to a counterattack from Ci Jinglin."

The fourth prince waved his hand indifferently: "Ci Jinglin is just a new champion, he has no real power, so he is not to be feared. As for Lin Cheng, we must win him over as soon as possible, otherwise there will be endless troubles."

The fifth princess was silent for a moment, then whispered, "Fourth brother, why don't you let me test them again?"

A hint of deep meaning flashed in the fourth prince's eyes, and he nodded: "Okay. Fifth sister, you have always been smart, so I'll leave this matter to you."

The undercurrent in the capital has been happening quietly without anyone noticing.

But Lin Cheng was not idle either. For more than half a year, he had been collecting evidence about the Jiang family's massacre, and now he finally found the escaped Ye Ting guard!

At night, Lin Cheng's trusted general came to report that Feng Song, the captain of the Night Court Guard, had been found.

At this time, Jiang Luo was watching the stars with Lin Cheng. Upon hearing this, they both stood up at the same time. Jiang Luo said, "Quick, take me to see him now!"

In order to investigate the incident in which the Night Court Guards massacred the entire Jiang family late at night, Jiang Luo and Lin Cheng have been on high alert for a long time, and now they finally have some clues.

Lin Cheng held Jiang Luo's hand, feeling the slight trembling of his fingertips, and said in a steady and firm tone: "Xiao Luo, don't worry, let's figure out the situation first."

Jiang Luo nodded, with a complicated look in his eyes: "Xiao Linzi, I have waited for this day for too long. Back then, the entire Jiang family died tragically, and I was lucky enough to escape. Over the years, I have been thinking all the time about finding out the truth and seeking justice for my family."

Lin Cheng gently patted the back of his hand, his eyes full of comfort: "I understand, Xiaoluo. Don't worry, no matter who is behind all this, I will accompany you to find out the truth."

The two quickly changed into casual clothes and followed their trusted young general to a remote courtyard on the outskirts of the city. The night was dark, and the moonlight was obscured by dark clouds, leaving only sporadic points of light on the ground, which seemed particularly deserted.

In the courtyard, a middle-aged man was tied to a chair, with a look of fear and uneasiness on his face. When he saw Lin Cheng and Jiang Luo coming in, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes, and then he lowered his head, not daring to look at them.

Lin Cheng walked up to him, his eyes were cold and his tone was oppressive: "Are you Feng Song?"

The man nodded, his voice trembling: "Yes...it's me."

Jiang Luo took a step forward, staring at him straight, his voice low and cold: "Feng Song, do you still remember me?"

Feng Song raised his head and looked at Jiang Luo carefully for a moment, then his face changed drastically and his voice trembled even more: "You...you are from the Jiang family..."

Jiang Luo sneered, with a hint of coldness in his eyes: "Yes, I am the survivor of the Jiang family. Who ordered you, the Night Court Guard, to break into the Jiang Mansion late at night and massacre my entire family?"

Feng Song's face turned pale instantly, his lips trembled, but he didn't speak for a long time.

Seeing this, Lin Cheng snorted coldly, with a hint of threat in his tone: "Feng Song, you'd better tell the truth. Otherwise, I have plenty of ways to make you live a life worse than death."

Feng Song's body trembled violently, his eyes full of fear. He raised his head, looked at Lin Cheng, then looked at Jiang Luo, finally gritted his teeth and whispered: "I...I'll tell you."

Jiang Luo's heart suddenly tightened and he clenched his fists, waiting for his next words.

Feng Song took a deep breath, his voice low and hoarse: "Back then... we followed the orders of the Fourth Prince, broke into the Jiang Mansion at night, and massacred everyone."

"Fourth Prince?" Jiang Luo frowned, a trace of disbelief flashed in his eyes, "Why? The Jiang family has no grudge against the Fourth Prince, why would he do such a cruel thing to my family?"

Feng Song shook his head, with a bit of helplessness in his tone: "I don't know the details, I only know that the Fourth Prince wants a secret letter in the hands of the Jiang family. The secret letter involves the secrets of the court, and the Fourth Prince is afraid that the Jiang family will leak it, so he..."

Jiang Luo's heart was filled with anger and pain. He clenched his fists, his nails digging deep into his palms, but he seemed to feel no pain. He murmured in a low voice: "Just for a secret letter, he slaughtered my whole family..."

Seeing this, Lin Cheng gently held Jiang Luo's hand, his eyes full of heartache: "Xiao Luo, don't be sad. Now that the truth has been found out, we will definitely seek justice for the Jiang family."

Jiang Luo raised his head, his eyes full of determination: "Xiao Linzi, the Fourth Prince is extremely powerful, how should we deal with it?"

Lin Cheng's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness, and his tone was a bit fierce: "Although the Fourth Prince is extremely powerful, he is not invulnerable. As long as we find the secret letter, we will have evidence to bring him down."

Jiang Luo nodded, his eyes full of determination: "No matter what, I will seek justice for the Jiang family."

Lin Cheng gently stroked Jiang Luo's hair, his tone gentle but firm: "Xiao Luo, don't worry, no matter how difficult the road ahead is, I will be by your side and face it with you."

Jiang Luo felt warm in his heart. He leaned into Lin Cheng's arms and whispered, "Xiao Linzi, thank you."

Lin Cheng chuckled, lowered his head and placed a gentle kiss on Jiang Luo's forehead: "Between you and me, why bother to thank me? No matter what happens, I will protect you forever."

The two hugged each other for a while, and Jiang Luo's mood gradually calmed down. He raised his head, his eyes full of determination: "Xiao Linzi, what should we do next?"

Lin Cheng pondered for a moment and whispered, "Let's find the secret letter first, and then secretly collect evidence of the Fourth Prince's crimes. Once the time is right, we will bring him down and seek justice for the Jiang family."

Jiang Luo nodded, his eyes full of trust: "Xiao Linzi, I will listen to you."

The two men asked Feng Song to sign and sealed the matter, and sent people to guard the place secretly so that there would be a personal witness when the physical evidence was presented.

Jiang Luo asked: "Is it safe here?"

Lin Cheng replied: "Don't worry, all of them are my trusted aides, and the one leading them is my junior fellow apprentice, whose martial arts skills are not inferior to mine."

Jiang Luo was very surprised and asked, "Why haven't I heard you mention your master?"

Lin Cheng replied: "Master didn't allow me to mention it before, but it doesn't matter now. The old man is dead."

Jiang Luo sighed, thinking that perhaps he was taking the world's disasters and blessings too seriously.

But the entire Jiang family was massacred. As a son, how could he not care at all?

Lin Cheng added: "I will send my confidant back to the Lin family to look for the secret letter tomorrow, but the Lin family has been burned down, and I don't know if the secret letter can be found."

Jiang Luo suddenly thought of something and said, "Xiao Linzi, before we left, did your father give you a letter? He told you to take the letter and me with you and leave the Jiang family?"

Lin Cheng also remembered it. He nodded and said, "Yes, Uncle Jiang said that it was the wealth accumulated by the Jiang family for generations. He asked me to bring it all to you!"

Jiang Luo asked: "Where is the letter now?"

Lin Cheng replied: "It was in the small bag we brought with us when we left. Since you were never in the mood to take over the family business, I kept it in the box."

The two looked at each other, and Lin Cheng quickly carried Jiang Luo onto the horse and rode back to the general's mansion.

He rummaged through boxes and cabinets and found the bundle, and took out the letter from it. The letter did contain a detailed list of the Jiang family's private property, which was now handed over to a trusted manager of the Jiang family. All the proof of wealth was kept in a warehouse somewhere in the Jiang family's manor.

Apart from this, there was no other words.

Lin Cheng frowned and said, "The address is written here. I guess Uncle Lin would not tell us clearly, after all, we are still two children to him. Now that we have the power in our hands, it's time to take it back! Xiaoluo, how many days do you have left for vacation?"

Jiang Luo replied: "Not many days left, but it's still enough to travel from the capital to Qijiang and back again overnight."

Lin Cheng said: "Then what are we waiting for? Let's set off now! I just don't know if your body can handle this bumpy journey."

Jiang Luo said: "What's so hard to bear? My health has improved a lot in this period of time! Xiao Linzi, let's set off now!"
