Chapter 885: Chapter 885 If I Die Unexpectedly_1

Fan Linong followed Qiao Xiaomai to a secluded place, and when Qiao Xiaomai took the puppet doll out of the sack, his already serious face grew even more stern.

After listening to Qiao Xiaomai narrate the incident, he disapproved and said, “You should have run away immediately at that time.”

“If someone really wanted to kill me, I wouldn’t have been able to outrun them. The person had already left, leaving behind such a thing purely to scare me.”

“Uncle Fan, if something really happens to me accidentally, it must be Sun Junyan and Cen Hong’s doing. You must report to the retired emperor and request His Majesty to investigate and clarify the truth,” Qiao Xiaomai looked at Fan Linong, her plea earnest.

After hearing this, Fan Linong nodded gravely, “Understood. However, I need to see your home with my own eyes before I can report to the retired emperor.”

“Let’s go, let’s go, call a few more people and go together.”

Just now, her courage was limited to bringing back the puppet doll; asking her to inspect the Hall herself was something she absolutely didn’t dare to do.

“Alright.” Fan Linong nodded, immediately summoned several off-duty guards, mounted horses, and headed towards Anping Village.

Qiao Xiaomai took a ride in Fan Linong’s carriage, and soon returned to the place that had earlier sent shivers down her spine.

This time, accompanied by several guards, she was much bolder. She opened the doors to the Hall and gestured for the men to take a closer look around.

“At that time, Cen Hong insisted on digging up my house. If it hadn’t been for the academy’s dean’s persuasion and Prince Wei’s presentation of an imperial decree, he would have started digging up my home long ago.”

“Unable to dig up my house, he ordered people to dig a deep trench in our village, claiming the treasure was underneath us and this would prevent it from being moved.”

As she spoke of the past events, Qiao Xiaomai was somewhat through gritted teeth.

In fact, the one who insisted on digging her home was Yang Wang, but Yang Wang was a prince, and at this moment, she could only shift the blame onto Cen Hong.

In the midst of her speaking, Fan Linong raised his hand and moved the cabinet blocking the door, and then they entered the Hall.

To ordinary people, these men were experts, capable of light Kung Fu, and they easily leaped into the pit below.

Through the light in the Hall, one could faintly make out the scene at the bottom of the pit.

“Uncle Fan, in my room, near the back, check if there’s a brick missing. Cen Hong pried one out.” Qiao Xiaomai stood at the doorway and called down to the people in the pit.

Soon, Fan Linong’s voice rang out, “One is missing.”

“But besides that, there are no other abnormalities.”

They had dug up the ground in search of any trace, but Qiao Xiaomai and Tong Sanlang had already erased all evidence at the time.

The group found no clues whatsoever.

Presumably, they were disgusted by this fact, so they intentionally created such a terrifying object to disgust Qiao Xiaomai.

With the hatred Sun Junyan had for Qiao Xiaomai, he was definitely capable of doing such a thing.

After making a round, Fan Linong used his light Kung Fu to jump out from the bottom of the pit, and said, “I will report this matter to His Majesty the retired emperor, as for Miss Qiao, you should not leave the manor these upcoming days.”

Qiao Xiaomai nodded, and did not forget to remind him, “If something happens to me, it is definitely Sun Junyan and Cen Hong’s doing.”

Hearing this, Fan Linong patted his chest and said, “Don’t worry, as long as you stay in the manor, absolutely nothing will happen.”

The primary prerequisite for protecting the crops was to ensure the safety of those tending the crops; it seemed that the security around the manor would need to be increased.
