After being bound to the learning system in my mother's womb, I became the empress

Chapter 253 Her Heart Is Cold

The maid brought tea.

Zhang Guan originally didn't pay much attention to the maid serving tea, but when the maid approached, an extremely fresh and calm fragrance floated over.

That's the scent of osmanthus.

How come there are osmanthus flowers at this time of year?

Is it fragrance powder?Or osmanthus hair oil?
Neither seems to be.

Whether it's powder or hair oil, the fragrance will never be so subtle.

He hugged her over and sniffed her neck.

"You smell so good. What kind of powder did you use?"

Having been immersed in women for a long time, he knew the lethality of his move.

No woman can resist such a domineering and elegant attack.

Unfortunately, what he didn't know was that his move wouldn't work in the Golden Scale Pavilion.

The maid was shocked and shouted: "Someone come quickly! Someone from the security guard molested me!"

The patrolling security guards heard the shouting and rushed over immediately to subdue Zhang Guan.

Zhang Guan subconsciously tried to break free, but was kicked in the knee by the security guard, "Be honest!"

Afterwards, he was beaten and thrown out of the gate, and was also blacklisted, and he could never enter the Golden Scale Pavilion again.

Zhang Guantie stared at the door of Jinlin Pavilion with a livid face, so angry that he wanted to kill someone.

Jinlin Pavilion dared to humiliate him like this. Today's shame was recorded in his mind!

After Pan Yanjun learned about it, she raised her eyebrows and asked people to spread the news. The more people knew about it, the better.

So many people knew that the woman in Jinlin Pavilion could not move.

As the negative teaching material in this incident, Zhang Guan indirectly gave Jinlin Pavilion a wave of publicity.

Invisibly, he gained the favor of many female guests in Jinlin Pavilion.

As a result, more and more female customers come to Jinlin Pavilion for consumption.

Of course, this is another story.

Lin Wushang set foot on the island in the middle of the lake.

Lin Xi, who was fishing by the lake, turned to smile at him, "Here he comes."

Lin Wushang paused, and she smiled so much that he had a bad feeling.

"What's the matter with me?"

Not long ago, she sent him a message, saying that she had something to tell him face to face, and it happened that he also had something to tell her.

Lin Xi pointed her chin towards the table next to her, with a bowl and a dagger resting on it.

"I want to ask you to borrow some blood."

Lin Wushang felt strangely relieved, it turned out that he was just borrowing some blood.

"What can you do with my blood?"

On the other hand, he picked up the dagger and slashed his wrist.

Lin Xi: "Feed the flowers."

Lin Wushang was surprised: "Feed the flowers?"

Lin Xi took him to the breeding room, "Here, this is the Heavenly Spirit Flower, pour your blood on it."

Lin Wushang poured the blood on the petals that looked like mushrooms, and watched helplessly as the blood soaked into the petals and was absorbed without a drop falling.

This flower is just like Lin Xi's people. It looks pure and beautiful, cute and innocent, but it has an evil nature.

Lin Xi didn't know that he was evaluating her so much in his heart, but even if he knew, he didn't care.

"Before the Tianling Flower bears fruit, I need you to come and bleed every now and then. In return, I will heal your second uncle's leg for you. How about that?"

Lin Wushang agreed without hesitation, "Okay." As long as she could heal the second uncle's leg and let him stand up again, it wouldn't matter if she gave him a little blood from time to time.

Returning to the lake, Lin Wushang bandaged his wounds and told Lin Xi: "Those water bandits have been caught.

"The secret guard disguised himself as a sister and went out with only two maids. Sure enough, he lured the water bandits out."

Lin Xi threw the fish he caught into the bucket, "What did you find out during the interrogation?"

Lin Wushang: "They are people under the third hall master of the Qianhai Gang. They followed the third hall master's order and deliberately attacked my sister. In fact, their target is me. Unfortunately, my whereabouts are elusive and they have never been able to find me." Opportunity to strike."

Lin Xi: "The Third Hall Master is in charge of Qingyuan County. Why would he attack you and Wushuang?"

Lin Wushang thought about the words he had heard from the third hall master last night, his eyes were dark, like the sky with billowing black clouds, shining with an icy cold light that preyed on others.

"He said that it was Cheng Lao'er who instigated it. He was originally unwilling to do it, but Cheng Lao'er promised him that after getting rid of me and sister, he would give him a batch of iron ore.

"Cheng Laoer said that as long as my sister and I die, only the blood of Aunt Cheng's mother will be left in the Changguo Duke's mansion.

"The people in the Duke's Mansion are old and disabled, and Lin Laosan has suffered a stroke and is paralyzed in bed. By then, with the help of the child who is half of the Cheng family's blood, the Cheng family will become the de facto master of the Duke's Mansion.

"At that time, with the help of the Duke's Mansion, the Cheng family may not be able to return to the list of aristocratic families."

When he said this, his voice was filled with endless coldness.

Lin Xi felt that the temperature around her had dropped several degrees, making it even cooler.

She stretched her legs and said, "The Cheng family almost succeeded in the previous life. You stopped it in advance in this life, but as long as the Cheng family is still there and the child is still there, their desire to covet the Duke's Mansion will never go away.

"What are you going to do?"

Lin Wushang went to the lake and knelt down to wash his hands.

He saw his own reflection in the water, and there was uncontrollable rage and murderous intent in those eyes.

He heard himself ask, "What would you do if it were you?"

Lin Xi chuckled: "If it were me, they would have passed away by now, including that child."

Cutting the grass without eradicating the roots will bring endless troubles.

There is no such thing as childishness and innocence here.

"You're not planning to let them go, are you?"

Lin Wushang said nothing, having already made a decision in his heart.

When Lin Xi saw him again, he had a white linen wrapped around his head. The linen was tied in a knot behind his head and hung behind his back.

Wearing linen and mourning is a attire only worn by those who have died in the family.

Lin Xi raised her eyebrows, "Is your father finally dead?"

Lin Wushang: "He was also involved in that incident, so I sent him away with his beloved Cheng. Cheng Lao Er and the Third Hall Master didn't let anyone go either."

His words sounded harsh, but Lin Xi still found a loophole.

"Where's Cheng's child?"

Lin Wushang was silent, and finally told her: "It was given to a childless couple."

Lin Xi: "I knew it."

Children who grow up in love are always softer in heart than those who do not have love.

Although Lin Wushang lost his mother at a very young age and his father was nothing, he still had a loving grandfather, an aunt who treated him like a mother, a second uncle, and a cousin.

The care and love these people gave him made him always have a soft place in his heart.

Unlike her, her father doesn't love her mother, and she has been struggling in the last days for ten years. Her heart is colder than the knife that has been killing fish for ten years.

That kind of thing of letting her enemy's son grow up would never happen to her.

"Pavilion Master, people have been sneaking in to inquire about the fireworks during this period, and I have dealt with several batches.

"Although it didn't cause any damage, it's not a problem to continue to defend like this passively. After all, you can only commit thieves for a thousand days, but you can't guard against thieves for a thousand days. Do you think you should think of a way to avoid future troubles?"

At a routine high-level meeting, Pan Yanjun reported to Lin Xi.
