Chapter 81

At the Chengyuan Marquis Manor, Zheng Jin clutched his jade pendant and, with a darkened expression, headed toward the Ancestral Hall. Lin Jingyue followed at a leisurely pace, pondering how much truth there might be to the rumors of the Crown Prince having contracted an epidemic. Behind her, she was followed quietly by Bochun, Manzhi, two nannies sent by the Zheng family, and a squad of the Zheng Family Army. These soldiers had been hand-picked by her eldest uncle, Zheng Weijiang; they were the elite of the camp, and in the event of a confrontation, they would be more than capable of breaking up a fight. When Lin Jingyue had returned to the manor, she had received a secret message from Steward Chen stating that the Tang brothers, Tang Yinyuan and Tang Yinyuan, had summoned the Marquis back to the manor and that the group was currently heading to the Ancestral Hall. It seemed that Lady He, unable to bear the agony of kneeling in the hall day after day, had secretly sent word to them.
