Chapter 418: One Life, Two Deaths

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After leaving the residence, Yin San opened the bag. There was a clay pot inside. He opened it and saw that it was filled with medicinal sauce and beef. It was made of expensive medicinal herbs to nourish the body and strengthen the muscles and bones. It was also easy to store.

Young Master had eaten a lot of it in the past.

He did not expect his cousin to give him a small jar.

After receiving her cousin’s letter, Yu Youyao felt relieved. She was still worried about her cousin, but she did not feel terrible like when they had just parted.

Two days later, in the dead of night, Yin Huaixi, who was far away in

Shandong, received a large package from Yin San and a letter.

Yin San took out the clay pot. “Young Miss gave it to me.”

Yin Huaixi glanced at him indifferently. “Since it’s something she gave you, keep it. You don’t have to report it in the future.”

Since she had given it to him once, there would definitely be a second time, or even countless times.

The candlelight in the tent was dim. Yin Huaixi opened the letter and read it word by word. He read it slowly, and almost every sentence had to be digested.

Even though it was just some trivial matter in her life, he did not feel annoyed.

Instead, he read with relish.

There was a spark in his eyes and thoughts in his mind.

At the mention of the blooming tung flowers, he couldn’t help but think of the scene of the little girl sitting under the Parasol Tree that was filled with flowers and stamens. She would be burning incense and practicing calligraphy.

When she said that the lotus lake was filled with lotus flowers, he could also imagine the scene of the little girl rowing on the lake and picking lotus leaves.

When she said that she had used the bright red Chinese roses to make lipstick, he could also imagine that the little girl’s mouth should be beautiful.

When she mentioned her studies, he could also imagine that the little girl must be unwilling to stay in the house in the bitter summer. She would set up a desk in the pavilion in the middle of the lake and a small couch. She would lean against it to read or stand in front of the desk to practice her calligraphy.

All of the above seemed to be happening to her, but he regretted not being able to accompany her and admire the flowers with her. He wanted to see the lotuses that filled the lake and row on the lake with her. He wanted to paint and recite poetry for her.

Towards the end, the little girl’s words were filled with concern and longing for him. It seemed to overflow from every stroke.

After an hour, Yin Huaixi finished reading the letter.

Yin Huaixi took the musk slices from the incense box and placed them into the incense burner. He added small charcoal at the bottom of the furnace. The musk slices in the furnace emitted smoke after being heated.

Yin Huaixi took the letter and placed it over the fire to burn.

At this moment, a black shadow silently appeared in the tent. ‘Young Master, tonight, the Seventh Young Master of the Jinan Wood Residence was competing with the Fourth Young Master of the Leng Residence for the courtesan at the Night Jade Pavilion. Both sides fought fiercely. Fourth Young Master Leng accidentally fell from upstairs. I followed your instructions and deliberately created chaos to delay First Madam’s treatment. When the people from the Leng Residence arrived, I killed Fourth Young Master Leng silently and spread the news that Fourth Young Master Leng died from delayed treatment.”

The Mu Residence and the Leng Residence in Jinan were the two major clans in Shandong. They were deeply rooted in Shandong. The Mu Residence dealt in medicinal herbs and almost controlled most of the medicinal herbs business in Shandong.

On the other hand, although the business of the Leng family’s tea and medicine business was not identical, there were some overlaps. As time passed, it was inevitable that there would be some conflicts and personal favors. They had always been at odds.

Of course, this little personal favor was not enough to completely turn the two families against each other. They still needed another powerful medicine.

Fourth Young Master Leng’s death was such a powerful medicine.

Yin Huaixi did not even look up. “Have you finished dealing with the incense ash?”

The fragrance of the Soul Seizing Incense was special. After experimentation, it was indeed as Yu Youyao had said. It could be mixed with any spices and no one would notice anything amiss.

Nothing in this world was foolproof.

On the battlefield, he only trusted himself!

The secret guard said, “After the incense ash was cleaned up, it was sprinkled into the lake.”

Yin Huaixi nodded.

The musk in the room became thicker and thicker. The secret guard couldn’t help but ask, ‘Young Master, why didn’t you let Fourth Young Master Leng fall to his death directly? Why did you spend so much effort to create chaos and delay the treatment? Why did you let Fourth Young Master Leng die when the people from the Leng and Mu Residences arrived?”

Wouldn’t the outcome be the same if he fell to her death or was secretly executed?

He did not understand why Young Master was doing this, but he was worried that this was also part of Young Master’s plan, so he could only ask.

Yin Huaixi changed to another piece of paper. “The soul-stealing incense doesn’t kill!” contemporary romance

The feud between the clans had been going on for a long time. With the officials stirring up trouble, even without the help of the Soul Seizing Incense, he could still achieve the goal of sowing discord between the clans and break the alliance of the clans. It was just that it would take a little longer.

The little girl had given him the Soul Seizing Incense because she wanted to help him. He couldn’t bear to abandon her kindness.

The secret guard suddenly remembered that the Soul Seizing Incense was given to Young Master by the Young Miss of the Yu Residence. “I understand.”

They had used the Soul Seizing Incense to provoke a battle between Seventh Young Master Mu and Fourth Young Master Leng. If Fourth Young Master Leng did not die after falling off the building, the Soul Seizing Incense would not be considered to have taken his life.

Fourth Young Master Leng’s death at their hands had nothing to do with the Soul Seizing Incense.

It had nothing to do with Young Miss.

Yin Huaixi said in a low voice, “Burning a small amount of the Soul Seizing Incense is not harmful to the human body. It is more like a primer. If the person who smells it is a violent and impulsive person, as long as there’s a little bit of the Soul Seizing Incense, his crankiness and impulsiveness will be magnified.

To him, the Soul Seizing Incense would only make him a little restless.

It was obvious that even if it was a fatal thing, it depended on how it was used.

He did not want the little girl to get involved in human lives.

He was the one who had used the Soul Seizing Incense, and he was also the one who had killed someone. It had nothing to do with Yu Youyao.

Of course, this was only one of his goals. Yin Huaixi continued, “How did the people from the Leng Residence react when they arrived?”

His second goal was to wait for the people from the Leng Residence to arrive.

The secret guard said, “The person who came was the Eldest Young Master of the Leng Residence. He’s the closest to Fourth Young Master. When he saw that Fourth Brother was covered in blood, his eyes immediately turned red with anger. As he shouted for the doctor, he wanted to kill Seventh Young Master Mu to pay with his life. Fortunately, he was pulled back by his servants. The scene was chaotic and miserable.”

Yin Huaixi chuckled. “In this world, benefits are often more important than human lives, and reputation is more important than benefits. Fame and fortune often come first, and benefits come later. Fourth Young Master Lengs life isn’t comparable to the Leng Residence’s benefits. However, one life means two deaths. Even if the Leng Residence is doing this for reputation, they won’t let it go easily.”

If Fourth Young Master Leng fell from the building, he would die on the spot.

When Eldest Young Master Leng came over, he only saw a cold corpse. Even if he was sad, he probably wouldn’t lose his mind. After all, he was already dead. After that, the Mu Residence could completely say that it was a mistake. The Mu Residence put on a good front again and lowered their status. First, they dealt with Seventh Young Master Mu, who was the main culprit, according to the family rules. Then, they carried Seventh Young Master Mu, who was “in a miserable state”, to their door to “accept punishment..”
