Chapter 210 Grandpa seems to have a lot of secrets!
Inside the scroll was a palm-sized piece of sheepskin with crooked lines drawn on it, like a map. It was difficult to understand, so Lin Yue asked Silang to write it down and draw a copy when he came back to study it slowly.
She put the sheepskin back into the scroll, and a small phoenix-shaped jade pendant fell out. This jade pendant seemed inexplicably familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere before.
Unable to remember for a moment, Lin Yue didn't think much about it, so she put everything back in place, and the mother and daughter returned to their own yard.
"Grandpa seems to have a lot of secrets!"
Shiro corrected Jiro.
"Not my grandfather, but my grandmother's secret."
Dalang listened to the two brothers' words and was thoughtful. Lin Yue did not hide anything in Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion from them, and let them participate in the whole process. They learned to think about many things, which was a good opportunity for growth.
Silang quickly copied out the dowry list and the sheepskin map according to his memory. Lin Yue took a quick look at it. She believed in Silang's memory and knew it must be correct.
Even after the four men fell asleep, Lin Yue was still not sleepy.
This matter seemed to be beyond her imagination. She didn't expect that her life experience would involve so many things. It was really confusing.
At this moment, she really wanted to find someone to talk to.
Then his consciousness moved slightly, and he was in the arms of another person in an instant.
The man was sleeping soundly, and suddenly felt someone crawling into his arms. The corners of his lips curled up, and a kiss fell on Lin Yue's forehead. Noticing that there was something wrong with Lin Yue's aura, Ye Yin opened his eyes and met a pair of dark eyes.
"Why are you not sleeping in the middle of the night and running into my bed?"
"I found out something and wanted to talk to you."
Ye Yin immediately guessed that it must be related to Lin Chong, "About your background?"
Lin Yue replied sullenly, "Well, I find it increasingly difficult to understand. What is the relationship between Lin Chong and my mother?"
There was a lantern on in the room, shining dimly on Lin Yue's face. Ye Yin could feel that she was in a state of confusion.
He held her in his arms and half sat up, leaning against the soft pillow behind him.
"Are you doubting that they are not a real couple?"
Lin Yue nodded and told him about Lin Chong's collection of Meng's portrait, and then took out Silang's handwritten dowry list and map.
"It was found in his study. Shiro copied it."
Ye Yin took a quick look in the dim light and immediately noticed something was wrong.
"This dowry list is a bit strange. It doesn't look like something written for a formal wedding. It looks more like a handwritten list."
"Really? You think so too?"
Lin Yue admitted that she didn't know much about ancient dowry lists, but she also felt that this list was just a list. Who wrote it? Meng Shi or Lin Chong?
"Judging from the handwriting, I think it was written by Lin Chong!"
Lin Yue recalled the words on the list. It didn't look like a woman's handwriting. She didn't pay attention to it at the time and didn't compare it with Lin Chong's handwriting.
"It doesn't matter who wrote it. This reveals a message. The relationship between Lin Chong and my mother is just as you suspected. It's possible that they are not a real couple. Perhaps it's a deal?"
"trade?"
Lin Yue chewed on these two words and felt that it was possible.
"Don't worry, no matter what their relationship is, the truth will come out sooner or later. We will investigate it bit by bit."
Ye Yin paused and comforted her.
"Also, Fanghua's matter is a long time ago, so it will take at least two or three days to get a result. The wedding dress that the palace hastily made will be delivered in the next two days. You can take care of some of it, and I will take care of these things!"
"What about this map?"
Lin Yue nodded. She also knew that there was no time to rush. With Ye Yin by her side, she felt much more at ease. Her original plan was to avenge the original owner, but she ended up getting completely trapped in it. It was impossible for her to completely ignore it.
It's not her style to not figure it out.
"It doesn't look like Daqi's map to me. Come and see!"
Ye Yin pulled her off the bed, lit a candle, and the two of them went to the desk outside.
"This is a map of Daqi. Take a look. Which one is closest?"
Lin Yue looked at it carefully. The lines were too abstract. Forgive her for not being able to understand them.
"Here... Look, if this line extends outward, won't it coincide with this place?"
The map in Ye Yin's hand was a little different, because he put Nanrong's map together, and when they were connected, he could see the clue.
"This is where Daqi and Nanrong meet! Isn't that southwest?"
Ye Yin's own territory?
"Hmm! It's said to be in my territory in the southwest, but it's not within Daqi. Do you remember the location of Canglong Mountain?"
Ye Yin pointed to the line on the map and said, "Look here, it's the back of Canglong Mountain. This is where it borders Nanrong. It's an uninhabited area."
Lin Yue was stunned. She knew what a no-man's land was! It was a no-man's land, but it was all mountains. How could there be any people?
Something flashed through his mind quickly, and this time Lin Yue caught it!
"There!"
Ye Yin knew it, and she guessed it too!
The last time they stood on the top of the mountain, Lin Yue regained her memory, and that place became the most peculiar place in Ye Yin's heart. Now this small map actually points to there. Is it God's will?
“Why is it a no-man’s land there?”
Lin Yue was very puzzled. It turned out that there were such places in ancient times.
"In the Canglong Mountain area, apart from the outermost hills, there are endless mountains. The mountain roads are rugged and have never led to flat land since ancient times. No one has ever entered what is inside. According to historical records, no dynasty has ever penetrated deep into the mountains."
“Local people call it the ‘Mountain of Ten Thousand Mountains.’”
So that’s it!
The deep mountains are most likely to be mysterious places!
"It will be easy once we know where it is!"
No matter what secrets are hidden there, they will always overcome difficulties and explore it!
"Right now, I'm afraid it's impossible to get your mother's dowry back in full. What are you going to do?"
Lin Yue nodded, "I expected that! Then let them exchange it for the equivalent amount of silver!"
"I think they must be in great pain right now. They're either trying to piece together your mother's dowry or thinking of a solution. They'll definitely come to you for a consultation. Before they come to you, there should be news about Fanghua."
Lin Yue understood what Ye Yin meant. Her mother had not told her anything. If Fanghua was still alive, she might know something. Even if Fanghua had met with an accident, she should have left something behind. There must be a reason why her mother trusted her so much.
"it is good!"
The two people guessed correctly, and Lin Chong also planned so. Naturally, he did not intend to ask for back the things he had given away. He personally went to talk to Lin Yue, thinking of exchanging them for something of equivalent value, but he also had another plan in mind, which was that he hoped Lin Yue would not get to the bottom of the matter.
