Chapter 3230 - 3231: Waiting for Death Here
"There’s no news from Sixth Ding’s side, but he’s also investigating, this subordinate knows." The subordinate replied.
Upon hearing this, Zui Yifeng took a deep breath.
Relying on Sixth Ding is impossible; at most he can be used for small matters only.
"Master, there’s something, but I don’t know if I should say it." The subordinate looked at Zui Yifeng and spoke in a low voice.
"What is it?"
Zui Yifeng asked.
"Are those Ding Family herbs still around?" the subordinate asked.
"Hmm?"
Hearing the subordinate’s words, Zui Yifeng was actually stunned.
The next moment, his expression suddenly turned grim, and he looked at his subordinate as if he wanted to devour him.
"Immediately go investigate, has anyone entered the Ding Family recently?!" he instructed.
Could it be that the Ding Family herbs have indeed been given away and are no longer with the Ding Family, which is why he sent so many people to search but couldn’t find those herbs.
However, such valuable herbs, to whom could they be gifted?
Could it possibly be Sui Zimo and Lin Caisang?
Thinking of this possibility, his face suddenly darkened. If that’s really the case, wouldn’t it mean Lin Caisang has already researched the antidote?
"No, it can’t be."
He shook his head, thinking this was simply impossible. Even if Lin Caisang had great skills, she couldn’t have discovered the antidote so quickly.
If she truly had such capabilities, why not detoxify Sui Zimo earlier?
"Right, it definitely won’t be Sui Zimo and Lin Caisang, it can’t be them."
He told himself that the three herbs must have been given by the Ding Family to someone else; it couldn’t be them.
However, a voice in his heart also told him, besides Sui Zimo and Lin Caisang, who else would the Ding Family give such valuable herbs to?
The Ding Family has two children, both with Lin Caisang.
Ding Rong is Ding Zhuzui’s legitimate daughter, the child he cares about most, and Ding Xu was raised under the care of Old Madam Ding, who is most fond of Ding Xu.
These two people are with Lin Caisang, who else would those herbs be given to if not Lin Caisang?
"No, I can’t just sit here and wait for doom."
The Lin Family must have someone under his control; even if it’s not Lin Caisang, it could be someone else like Lin Baizhong, or Liu Yuyang.
If all else fails, he could even capture the City Lord’s Wife.
As long as the City Lord’s Wife is in his grasp, he doesn’t believe Sui Zimo and Lin Caisang wouldn’t be cautious!
However, if he wants to capture the City Lord’s Wife, he would have to put in some effort, especially now when there are so many guards around her, chiefly the elite guards from the City Lord’s Mansion.
"Phew!"
He exhaled heavily, feeling that this matter was truly difficult to handle.
...
Meanwhile, at Sixth Ding’s residence.
"What did you say, aside from you, was Ding Rong and Ding Xu also at the Ding Family that day?" Sixth Ding glared at his steward, almost wanting to smack him to death.
"Yes, master, I saw Ding Rong and Ding Xu enter the Ding Family with my own eyes." The steward replied.
"You——"
Sixth Ding nearly spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Why didn’t you say so earlier!"
If he had said it earlier, he wouldn’t have needed to send people to the Ding Family. He could have directly kidnapped Ding Rong and Ding Xu; wouldn’t that have been better?
