Xiao Lintian listened carefully. Such a layout was indeed very huge. Every step had to be calculated based on the other party's heart and their reaction.

Thinking that Ling Yu could win the first place in the chess competition, Xiao Lintian knew that Ling Yu did not set this game casually.

"Then, these rich people buy jade as if they don't know the goods but love to show off. The Zhao family saw that these rich people were stupid and had too much money, so they wanted to cheat them!"

"In this way, the Zhao family gradually entered the game. The rich man stayed for a while and ordered a batch of jade worth nearly two million yuan. However, he had to rush back because of a sudden emergency at home."

"Then they claimed that they didn't have enough funds and they had to pick up a batch of goods on the way. Without funds, the turnover was inconvenient, so they deposited all the jades and houses they bought before with the Zhao family, and borrowed 800,000 yuan in silver notes from the Zhao family for turnover.

one time!"

"The Zhao family thought that they would have to come back to pick up the two million jade they ordered, and the jade they had bought before was hundreds of thousands. They didn't want to let go of such a big deal, so they readily borrowed it!"

Xiao Lintian understood and laughed: "Of course these rich people will not come to mention these jade articles again!"

"And you asked for 800,000 to get back all the cost of buying the jade!"

"This is equivalent to saying that you got back the 400,000 you were defrauded from the Zhao family without spending a penny!"

"clever!"

Ling Yu praised: "When I told Geng Xiaohao about this, I explained the principle for a long time before he understood it. You understood it as soon as you heard it. You are smarter than Geng Xiaohao!"

"They asked for 800,000 yuan. In fact, Geng Xiaohao and I took 400,000 yuan back. Apart from the cost, the rest was divided among the people participating in the performance! We will not get an extra point for anything that does not belong to us!"

Xiao Lintian frowned, he admired Ling Yu for not being greedy.

Otherwise, according to the situation set by Ling Yu, if we borrow more from the Zhao family, the Zhao family will also give it!

Xiao Lintian felt a little envious of Geng Xiaohao for being able to personally take charge of this scam, and shared with Ling Yu the excitement of setting up the trap.

But looking at Ling Yu's happy look, Xiao Lintian's heart moved. In the past, Ling Yu didn't tell him anything, but now she can share it with herself. It can be considered an improvement!

As long as we can trust each other, whatever Ling Yu does in the future, she will discuss it with herself!

While the two were chatting, Zhao Xuan hurried in.

"Your Majesty, little Eunuch Xie is here to convey the Emperor's oral instructions, asking you and the Princess to enter the palace immediately!"

"What happened?"

Xiao Lintian frowned.

Before Zhao Xuan could speak, Mr. Jin Da also hurried in.

"Your Majesty, my subordinates were on the street just now, and they saw eight hundred miles of hasty messengers heading to the palace! Something big must have happened at the border!"

Could it be that the war has started again?

But this is enough to announce that Xiao Lintian has entered the palace. Why should Ling Yu be called in?

Zhao Xuan saw Xiao Lintian looking at him with doubtful eyes and said quickly.

"My lord, my subordinates have inquired with Young Eunuch Xie. It's not that there's a war, but that the plague from Eastern Qi has spread to Western Qin!"

"I heard that more than a dozen villages have been infected by the plague, and hundreds of people have died!"

These words immediately made Xiao Lintian and Ling Yu shiver unconsciously. So many people died, it was a large-scale plague infection!

And it’s at the border. Have the soldiers protecting the border been infected?

If the first line of defense is breached, the enemy can march straight in!

This is no small matter!

By then, even if those people do not die in the plague, they will die in the war!

Ling Yu couldn't even imagine how many families would be separated and destroyed because of this!

Xiao Lintian and Ling Yu looked at each other and said in unison: "Enter the palace quickly!"
