Chapter 33
Chapter 33
The wing rooms of Puji Temple are not big, and it seems crowded for three or four people.
Madam Zheng rested for a while, and she really woke up. After taking a breath, she saw Lin Jinhua who was sitting on the side, her eyes immediately became sharp.
Lin Jinhua calmly waited for her to say harsh words, but Zheng Ruyi sensed her mother's anger, and said first, "Mother, it was Miss Lin who saved you."
"Really?" Mrs. Zheng and her daughter looked at each other, and their eyes softened instantly. They looked at Mrs. Dingnanhou who came with them, and struggled to get up to thank them.
Seeing this, Mrs. Hou just smiled and said: "You are not in good health, just rest. Since there is no abnormality in your body, then I will take Jinhua to talk to the master first."
Mrs. Zheng saw that Mrs. Dingnanhou, who had always been domineering, valued Lin Jinhua so much, she secretly slandered her, but she changed her mind. Wouldn't it be better if she was willing to support her like this?
She smiled weakly: "I came here today to pray for blessings, but now that so many things have happened in the Zheng family, I am really flustered, and I haven't asked the master for an autograph yet..."
Madam Hou heard this, and looked at Zheng Ruyi who was standing beside her, she looked very well-behaved and generous, but she knew the grievances between the Zheng family and the Lin family, so she just said: "It's okay to go later..."
"It's too late, I'm afraid it's not good to sign the document." Seeing that she was going to refuse, Mrs. Zheng tightened her hand holding the quilt slightly, but she only pleaded: "I can't go, if Mrs. Hou doesn't Dislike, can you take my daughter with you?"
Seeing what she said, Mrs. Hou hesitated for a moment, then turned her head and looked at Lin Jinhua inquiringly. Lin Jinhua knew that she couldn't refuse anymore, and she wouldn't be such a bad person, so she nodded with a smile.
They went out of the yard to wait, and Zheng Ruyi took care of Mrs. Zheng inside.
Taking advantage of this gap, Mrs. Hou looked at her with a calm face, and asked, "It's not easy for the Hou family to interfere with the affairs of the Zheng and Lin families. You should know."
Lin Jinhua smiled obediently: "Jinhua understands Madam Hou's thoughts, and I am very grateful to Madam Hou for being willing to accompany Jinhua over here."
Seeing that she didn't seem to complain at all, Mrs. Hou thought she was sensible, and liked her more and more.But just now if she refused to agree or lost her temper, she would never indulge her.She knew this, and so did Lin Jinhua. Madam Hou treated her well only because she believed that Madam Hou would conceive a son in the next two months.
Not long after, Zheng Ruyi came out, wearing a green cloak, she looked very elegant and generous.
A little bit embarrassed, she stepped forward to salute, and then said: "After my brother passed away, my mother has been confused. Please Madam Hou and Sister Lin don't blame me."
Lin Jinhua looked at her slightly upturned eyes, clenched her hands hanging in her sleeves tightly, but her face was calm: "Mrs. Hou is the most kind, so I won't argue with you. Let's go."
The smile on Madam Hou's face grew more and more, and she led Lin Jinhua forward with a few simple and polite words.
Along the way, Zheng Ruyi was well-behaved, she won Madam Hou's favor with a few words, and even said that she would go to her house for a small gathering in a few days.
When they arrived at the abbot's meditation room where the lottery was drawn, Lin Jinhua was not interested in signing the papers, but the master said that Mrs. Hou would have a son, which made her very happy.
"Madam Hou is blessed at first glance. When she becomes pregnant with a young son, Ruyi will definitely come to fulfill Madam Hou's wish." Zheng Ruyi said with a smile, holding her arm affectionately.
Two blushes rose on Mrs. Hou's face, and she smiled shyly at her: "Thank you for having such a heart, but I am not a few years older than you. From now on, I don't need to be called by Mrs. Hou, as it seems natural, I will call my sister." that is."
"Yes, good sister." Zheng Ruyi bent her eyes and smiled, as if she was really happy to be pregnant with her own sister.
Lin Jinyu sat calmly opposite the master, looking at a cup of tea in front of him. The color of the tea is translucent, but the fragrance is light but lingers on the tip of the nose for a long time. It is different from those famous teas. She couldn't help smiling and asked the master sitting opposite: "This tea is grown by the masters themselves. of?"
The master abbot was a kind old man, and nodded with a slight smile when he heard the words: "It's rare for the benefactor to guess that there is a small tea garden in the back mountain, and monks will take care of it in their free time, some of which are kept for their own use, and some are given to pilgrims."
Lin Jinhua's eyes lighted up slightly, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised. If I remembered correctly, there was a monk in the previous life who used this tea as a tribute. Even the undead emperor liked it very much, and specially named the monk a 'National Teacher'.
"Is this tea really good?" Mrs. Hou asked curiously, not knowing about tea.
Zheng Ruyi sniffed it, and smiled slightly: "It's really good tea. The fragrance is dew on the flower, and the water absorbs the spring in the stone. The fragrance is overflowing, like the fragrance of flowers soaked in dew. It is rich and delicate, and the taste is sweet."
After she finished speaking, she realized that Mrs. Hou, who was still affectionate just now, looked much paler now.
Madam Hou turned her face to Lin Jinhua and said with a smile, "Tell me, what's so good about this tea?"
"Fragrant." Lin Jinhua smiled faintly. Mrs. Hou is good at embroidery, but she doesn't like reading, and she doesn't like people who stick to words. Zheng Ruyi is now exporting famous poems, so Mrs. Hou doesn't like it.
After hearing this, Mrs. Hou laughed out loud, "You're honest."
Zheng Ruyi's hand holding the teacup was slightly stiff, and her face was a little embarrassed.
Master Abbot saw through but didn't tell the truth, and drew Lin Jinhua and Zheng Ruyi's lottery. Lin Jinhua asked about the future, so he made the next lottery, while Zheng Ruyi was about the marriage, and the upright lottery.
Mrs. Hou frowned: "Jinhua, you ask about the future of a daughter, why not ask about the marriage."
Master Abbot took a deep look at Lin Jinhua, and said with a smile, "Three signings a day will not work in the future. Donor, please come again next time."
Lin Jinhua was also relieved that her fate in this life was picked, and she didn't care about marriage or not, but she just smiled: "A signature is just a signature after all, and what happens in the future depends on myself."
Zheng Ruyi's face turned pale slightly, thinking that Lin Jinhua's words were aimed at her, and mist filled her eyes immediately, and she forced a smile: "Miss Lin said so."
Seeing how sensitive she was, Mrs. Hou frowned slightly, but she didn't say anything, but felt a little troubled in her heart.
After coming out of the master, Lin Jinhua still wanted to find Mrs. Xiong, so she said that she would go back and ask the master and left first.
When Zheng Ruyi watched her leave, her hands in her sleeves were already clenched tightly.
Seeing that she was not moving, Mrs. Hou asked strangely, "Ruyi, what's the matter?"
Zheng Ruyi turned her face around with a gentle look, looked at the exhausted look on her face, and smiled softly: "Ruyi heard that rubbing a few acupuncture points on her shoulders can make a girl stay young forever, and my sister is also tired. Why don't you let Ruyi press it for you?"
Madam Hou's eyes lit up, she agreed happily and led her to the wing where she was resting.
For Lin Jinhua's place, she hid on the side and saw someone leave, and then quickly walked to the wing where Mrs. Xiong lived, holding up her skirt.
Mrs. Xiong stood under the plum tree in the yard in dejection because of the reconciliation and quietly wiped her tears. When Lin Jinhua came, she forced a smile: "Why are you here?"
Lin Jinhua saw that she had lost a lot of weight, so she didn't say anything, she just smiled and said, "I just passed by and saw the plum blossoms in the yard blooming well, so I came here without knowing it."
"Really..." She forced a smile, but she didn't have the heart to start a conversation, nor did she have the heart to look at the plum blossom.
Lin Jinhua looked at the plum blossom petals falling on the ground, and sighed softly.
Mrs. Xiong was puzzled: "What's wrong?"
Lin Jinhua just shook her head: "Scattered pieces are turned into mud and dust, but who knew that this plum blossom once bloomed proudly on its branches?"
Mrs. Xiong seemed to be touched, her eyes were wet again, she quietly turned her back to wipe away her tears, and said with a helpless smile: "So what if the branches once bloomed? Spring comes and autumn goes, new flowers will always bloom, and old flowers will wither."
Lin Jinhua shook her head: "If it were me, I would have gritted my teeth and made this last withered flower. Otherwise, if I turned into mud, wouldn't I still have to support them?"
Mrs. Xiong paused for a moment, turned around and looked at Lin Jinhua. The accumulated emotions in her heart made her unable to hold back her low sobs, and then she vented and said everything about the prime minister's mansion. Looking down on her as a sister-in-law, it seems that nothing goes well when the concubine designs her.
Lin Jinhua listened to everything in silence, and after Mrs. Xiong said everything, her mood improved a lot.
She looked at Lin Jinhua's long but still delicate face, sighed and shook her head: "I'm more than ten years older than you, yet I'm still talking about this to you little girl."
Lin Jinhua smiled: "Madam looks young, she looks like she is three or four years older than Jinhua, and there are not many close people around Jinhua. Now that she has heard what Madam said, when she gets married in the future, she will have a feeling in her heart." number."
Mrs. Xiong laughed out loud when she heard the words, and felt more and more sympathetic as a woman.
She looked up at the plum blossom tree in front of her, and felt that it was not as beautiful as before, but the fallen flowers on the ground were more lovable.She squatted down slightly, spread out her handkerchief, picked some up and stuffed them into her sleeves, then said with a smile: "Go back and make a sachet, so it's good to be alert all the time." After finishing speaking, she paused: "What I just told you... ..."
"Don't worry, ma'am, Jinhua has forgotten all about it." Lin Jinhua rolled her eyes and smiled.
Mrs. Xiong was also wary of her because she saved her son last time. Now that she heard her say that, she felt relieved and said with a smile, "I can't see that you are such an interesting person." .By the way, I heard that your father is coming back soon. There will be a banquet in the palace before the New Year's Eve. You will probably go there at that time. Don't run around this time." If the incident with Defei Koi didn't happen just in time She went to save her son, and the hat was probably on her head.And when she said that, she knew that Concubine De had resentment towards her.
Lin Jinhua knew that Mrs. Xiong only spoke to repay the matter just now, so she nodded with a smile.
"It's getting late, you came with Mrs. Hou, so let's go down the mountain together. Although Puji Temple is a national temple, there are all kinds of people who come here. You, a daughter, should pay attention." Mrs. Xiong After exhorting, he turned around and left.
Seeing that it was indeed getting late, Lin Jinhua turned around to look for Mrs. Hou, but unexpectedly, not far from the yard, the wind suddenly picked up and the sky quickly turned dark. This was a sign of a heavy snowstorm coming.
She debated the direction, lifted her skirt and ran forward quickly.
The wind and snow were getting bigger and bigger, gradually blinding people's eyes, and Lin Jinzheng began to find it difficult to move forward.She was barely clinging to the wall. The wind and snow were so heavy that she couldn't tell the direction, so she could only keep walking until there was some abnormal smell in the wind and snow, which seemed to be the smell of blood.
She sensed something was wrong, and wanted to leave quickly, but suddenly a big and generous hand was placed on her shoulder. She gritted her teeth slightly, turned around and kicked the man, only to kick the man on the ground with a muffled groan, white The snow has been dyed red.
"Are all women so ruthless nowadays..." He squeezed out a sentence in pain.
Lin Jinhua frowned, turned around and wanted to continue walking, but the man grabbed her ankle: "Help me."
"Let go." Lin Jinyu said coldly, she was covered in blood here, she either killed someone or was hunted down, she didn't want to risk her life for a stranger.
Seeing her so calm and indifferent, the man looked at her in surprise: "Are you a woman?"
Lin Jinhua was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, so she raised her foot and stepped hard on his wrist. Seeing that he was in pain, she let go, turned around and left quickly.
Seeing this, the man gritted his teeth angrily, and shouted at her back: "Damn girl, just wait for me!"
Lin Jinhua didn't care, she walked forward quickly, but luckily she arrived at Mrs. Hou's yard not far away.
At that time, Mrs. Hou was also worried. Seeing her coming back, she asked her to sit down and said, "It's a good thing you're fine. I'm going to send someone to look for you."
Lin Jinhua took off the cloak and put it away, then smiled and said, "I'm fine, but I'm afraid I won't be able to go back due to the heavy snowstorm tonight."
Madam Hou's complexion was a little gloomy, as if she was worried about something, hearing the whistling wind outside, her brows also frowned.
A woman came in from the outside in a hurry, and before she had time to dust off the snow, she stepped forward and said: "Madam, I asked the bearer and said that it is too dangerous to go down the mountain in such a heavy snowstorm. The news is over, Master Hou should not be worried, don't worry."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Hou nodded in disappointment, bowed her head to drink tea and stopped talking.
Lin Jinhua looked at it, and probably knew that she was worried that Lord Hou would spoil other women. The woman who forced Mrs. Hou away in the previous life would make Ying Ying appear...
She smiled slightly and said, "When I came here, I saw a plum tree in the yard. Why don't you ask someone to find some petals to make rouge."
Mrs. Hou was not in the mood, Lin Jinhua said with a slight smile: "Although the fragrance of plum blossoms is weak, the rouge made with soft snow water not only has a good color, but also has a long-lasting fragrance. People who are close to it will see it for several days. Not as good as other scents."
Madam Hou paused, and looked up at her: "Really?" In order to prepare for pregnancy, she has not used rouge and powder for a long time: "Then this is for the child..."
"It's made of pure flower petals, it won't affect children."
Lin Jinhua dispelled her worries, and Mrs. Hou immediately went to do it, and her mood improved a lot.
It was almost the second watch, and Mrs. Hou went to sleep contentedly.
Lin Jinhua also went back to the room to rest, but just took off her coat when she heard that the window seemed to be not closed tightly, and was blown by the wind and made a noise. But stretched in.
Lin Jinhua didn't even think about it, and directly dripped the wax on that hand. He grunted in pain but did not let go.
Lin Jinhua pulled out the hairpin and was about to stab it, when the man's head came in through the window, watching her gnashing her teeth: "Can you be like an ordinary woman, screaming and terrified!"
Lin Jinzheng's eyes were cold, and the hairpin in his hand was about to stab it, but he grabbed his wrist with his backhand and pushed it back violently.She took a few steps back before stopping, and when she looked again, he had already crawled in.
"go out!"
"Get out!" The man was covered with injuries, and the scene of climbing in from the window was weird and gloomy, and he was full of resentment.
Lin Jinhua's brows were tightly furrowed before she opened her mouth to shout, but she heard him say, "Don't worry, let me tell you who I am first, okay?"
"Who?"
Seeing that she finally gave him a chance to speak, the man let out a long sigh of relief: "I came to the capital to find someone."
"Who are you looking for?"
"Zhao Huaiyan, do you know him?" He saw a pot of tea on the bedside table, and hurried forward to pour a cup.
Lin Jinhua's face darkened slightly: "What are you looking for him for?"
The corner of the man's mouth was raised evilly, and he glanced at her: "I want a debt."
Lin Jinhua didn't remember who Zhao Huaiyan owed to anyone in her previous life, and this person had a very strange face, she must have never seen him in her previous life.
As he said that, the man took out a piece of round yellow jade from his waist and handed it to her: "If you save me, I will give this to you."
"No." Lin Jinhua looked at him coldly: "Go out."
The man raised the jade in his hand, he was very surprised, but he said with a smile: "Little girl, you don't know this piece of jade, do you?"
Lin Jinhua did not know him.
The corner of the man's mouth was raised higher: "Have you heard of Yunshuijian, the first pavilion in Jianghu?"
"No." How could it be that Lin Jinhua hadn't heard of Yunshuijian, the largest organization in Jianghu, which specialized in collecting and selling people's information, secretly doing some murders and robbery.
The man was dumbfounded, and coughed twice: "I said you..."
Just as he was talking, there was noise outside, Lin Jinzheng glanced indifferently, it seemed that someone was coming with a torch.
The man became nervous, and hurriedly said: "You have to save me, and I will give you whatever you want when the time comes."
Lin Jinhua glanced at him, and was about to open the door to buy him, but he said in a panic, "You can marry Zhao Huaiyan as a princess if you want, princess, that is very honorable!"
Lin Jinhua hesitated for a moment, this person is so determined, and when he mentioned Zhao Huaiyan, he didn't hate him, so isn't he Zhao Huaiyan's enemy?
Just as he was talking, a conversation between the guard and the woman came from outside.
"Have you ever seen a young man covered in wounds?"
"I didn't see it. This is Madam Dingnanhou's yard. It is strictly guarded. It is impossible for outsiders to come in." The old woman smiled, and after finishing speaking, she asked again: "What did that man do?"
The attendant thought for a while before saying, "Since it's Mrs. Hou, remind her to be careful. Kang Shilang, who came to offer incense tonight, was killed."
Kang Shilang?Kang Jiao?
Lin Jinhua looked back at the man in surprise, but he unexpectedly climbed onto her only bed and fell asleep unceremoniously.
Lin Jinhua gritted her teeth slightly, looked at the big puddle of blood on the ground, and then at the yellow jade he left on the table by her hand, and sighed helplessly, hoping that this person was Zhao Huaiyan's helper.
The wind and snow stopped in the middle of the night, and the sound of searching on the mountain continued until dawn.
Mrs. Hou was in a hurry to go back, and she called Lin Jinhua down the mountain early.
When the man woke up, the door was locked from the outside, the floor had been cleaned up, and there were two plates of pastries on the small tea table.
He reluctantly sat up and found that several serious wounds on his body had been healed. He couldn't help but smile, "The woman Zhao Huaiyan likes is really nice!" I looked around, saw no one, and left quickly.
When Lin Jinhua returned to Lin's mansion, Cai'er hurriedly told what happened in the mansion when she was not there yesterday, and couldn't help laughing as she talked: "It turns out that when the old lady was here, the eldest lady kept pressing down on the second lady and bullying us. , Now it’s good, I can’t do anything except yelling and scolding a few times, I heard that there will be people coming from the Japanese clan for a while, the eldest lady is afraid that she will suffer.”
"Don't worry about it." Lin Jinyu leaned against the couch with the stove simmering and rested for a while before asking, "Is Bai Lan feeling better?"
Cai'er covered her lips and smiled straight: "Mother Yang has been quite obedient since the second lady punished her last time. You asked her to take care of Bai Lan. She is careful, and Bai Lan has improved a lot."
Lin Jinhua smiled slightly, people are afraid of death.
While resting, Yang's mother came in respectfully and said softly: "Miss, there is a Princess Yuan at the gate of the mansion, who said he would invite you out of the mansion."
"Princess Yuan?" Lin Jinhua thought of Yuan Luyi who had only met once, but she didn't know why she suddenly invited herself: "She came alone?"
"There is also the Ninth Prince's side concubine. The second lady is resting in the front hall at the moment, and the servant has heard the news and hastened to report it." Yang's mother's thin face has been haggard these days, and she looked at Lin Jinhua with hope.She finally figured it out, the current Seventh Miss is not the same as before, the third master is about to return triumphantly, and the Seventh Miss will be even more honorable at that time, it is better to curry favor with her than the second lady who turned her face and refused to recognize anyone.
Seeing her attentiveness, Lin Jinhua nodded with a smile, "I see."
Mama Yang gritted her teeth slightly, turned around and prepared to go down, and then she continued: "You may not have been home for a long time, so go back this afternoon if you have time, rest, and come back on duty tomorrow."
Upon hearing this, Mother Yang quickly knelt down and kowtowed to express her thanks.
After she left, Cai'er said excitedly: "Miss, can I help you pick out some clothes?"
When Lin Jinhua came back, she had washed and changed her clothes again, and she just shook her head when she heard the words: "I'm in the filial age, so I'm going to be plain, so it's okay."
Cai'er wanted to persuade her, but she had already got up and put on her white cloak, and went out with a paper umbrella.
Yuan Lvyi's head is very big at the moment, she is free by nature, and she is the least used to listening to people's lectures, but the second wife is still blindly saying flattering words.
The Ninth Prince and Side Concubine listened quietly, answering a sentence or two from time to time, until Lin Zisu came over.
Lin Zisu is still wearing a light purple cross-neck and wide-sleeved long dress today, with a string of wreaths and blue field jade tied around her waist. When she walks, she jingles, making her already extremely beautiful become a little playful and cute.
She saw the Ninth Prince's side concubine who was weak as if a gust of wind was about to blow her away, raised her chin slightly, stepped forward to meet her with a polite smile, and said, "I've heard about the side concubine's name for a long time, and I saw it today, it really looks like a beautiful painting." Like."
The side concubine's name is Wei Yunyi. Hearing this, she just smiled slightly: "Miss Lin is a fairy that His Highness also praises. How can I compare?"
Lin Zisu couldn't hide her pride when she heard this.
Yuan Lvyi couldn't see it, so she curled her lips: "I think the side concubine is better-looking, Brother Jiu likes you for being so gentle."
Faced with these words, Lin Zisu couldn't hold back her face. She glanced at Mrs. Ye, gritted her teeth secretly, and said with a smile: "This is the princess, I heard that the kung fu is very good..."
"What's so good about women dancing swords and guns?" Yuan Lvyi replied mercilessly.
Lin Zisu looked even more embarrassed, Wei Yunyi saw it, and smiled slightly: "Miss Lin has no malicious intentions."
Yuan Luyi curled her lips and said no more, Wei Yunyi smiled politely at Lin Zisu.
Lin Zisu forced a smile and sat down beside her.Mrs. Ye gave her daughter a dark look, she couldn't hold a side concubine, if she became the main concubine in the future, wouldn't she be bullied.
Dang even said: "Zisu has been bored in the room for a long time, and I don't feel at ease when Jinhua goes out alone. I will let their sisters go out to play with the princess and side concubine in a while."
"No need..." Yuan Luyi hadn't finished his refusal, but Lin Jinhua just arrived.
Ye Shi looked at the uninvited person, glanced at Lan Qiu secretly, and then said with a smile: "You came just in time..."
Lin Jinhua kept her small movements in his eyes, and smiled slightly: "I just wanted to talk to my second aunt, but I didn't know that the side concubine and princess were also there."
Yuan Lvyi couldn't stay here any longer, so she stood up and pulled her along, saying, "Okay, let's go out earlier, let me tell you, it's very interesting that there are many strange people here in the capital today. With some medical skills, it happens to take care of the side concubine."
"Really?" Lin Jinhua chuckled, and Wei Yunyi stood up slowly while supporting the maid's hand, apologizing in her gentle eyes: "I didn't intend to trouble you, but the Ninth Prince said, if I want to To go out, I must be with you, so..."
Lin Jinhua recalled Zhao Qing's tenderness when he mentioned this side concubine, and smiled slightly: "I was just about to go out for a walk."
Lin Zisu saw that the three of them were so acquainted, and Yuan Luyi, who was ruthless just now, was also docile to her. She was so angry that the handkerchief in her hand was about to be scratched, but she tried her best to maintain a smile , stepped forward and said: "I know an old doctor who is very good at medicine..."
"Can it be better than the imperial physician in the palace?" Yuan Luyi thought of the way Lin Zisu flirted with Brother Jiu before, and he didn't like it in his heart, and he didn't bother to talk anymore, so he pulled Lin Jinhua outside.
Wei Yunyi shook his head helplessly, turned around and said to Ye Shi: "She has such a temperament, Madam, please don't mind."
"It's okay, the princess is lively and likes Jinhua, it's the Lin family's blessing." Ye's words were still tight.
Wei Yunyi got up and left without saying much.
After all, Lin Zisu didn't follow with a cheeky face, but after the people left, her eyes turned red with hatred: "When I become a princess in the future, I'll see how arrogant they are."
But Mrs. Ye just glared at her: "If you can't hold your breath, how can you make a big deal?"
"But……"
"But what. I heard that Kang Shilang of Puji Temple was assassinated. Didn't it just confirm her reputation as a criminal? The Kang mansion is probably in chaos today. If you see her, what do you think will happen?" Ye said with a smile.
When Lin Zisu heard this, her eyes lit up immediately: "A few days ago, a distant relative of the Kang family invited me to see rouge and gouache today, and the timing is just right."
Ye Shi nodded in satisfaction: "This is just like my daughter."
Lin Zisu looked in the direction where Lin Jinhua left, smiled coldly, and fought with me, I see how capable you are!
Lin Jinhua just got into the carriage here, seeing Wei Yunyi staring out of the window in a daze after sitting up, and looking at Yuan Luyi, she just spread her hands helplessly.
I don't know how long it took, the outside became lively, and Yuan Lvyi booked the private room of the teahouse early on, the second floor is next to the window, just in time to see the performances of those strange people downstairs.
Lin Jinhua had seen many of these performances in his previous life, and he was generally interested. Instead, his eyes turned to those who came to see the excitement. Some of them were having fun with their wives and belts, while some teenagers were looking inside with their heads stretched out. They were full of mundane fireworks, ordinary but warm. .
Looking at it, suddenly there were a few abrupt voices from below, Lin Jinhua looked down and saw the face of the sixth child.
The sixth child defended the knocked down person and shouted, "I will report to the police!"
"Report to the official? You stinky beggar, stealing our young master's silver, it would be good to kill you today!"
A few people who looked like servants kicked Lao Liu hard several times.
The sixth child was red-eyed, and the young boy seemed to be very strong at the moment: "This silver belongs to me, I didn't steal it!" He tried hard to argue, but those people laughed sarcastically: "You, a beggar, can have a full 100 taels of money!" Bank notes? You are afraid that you will never come to so many in your whole life, so what is it that you stole?"
"This is..." Old Liu was at a loss for words, he promised the young lady that he would never expose her, so he had no choice but to say: "This is my money, I didn't steal it!"
The man snorted, and kicked up hard again, and the people who followed him also started punching and kicking. The sixth child could only protect the people on the ground, holding his head reluctantly and letting them punch and kick.
Yuan Luyi also looked over, but frowned: "Is there no one from the government to take care of it?"
"The capital is so big, how can the government manage it." Wei Yunyi looked at it with pity and sighed softly.
Lin Jinhua looked at the sixth child who was gritting his teeth and didn't speak, then turned around and walked out.
Yuan Luyi called to her: "Jinhua, what are you doing?"
"I know that person." Lin Jinhua simply explained, and immediately took Cai'er down.
Seeing that Lao Liu didn't open his mouth, those people were about to forcibly snatch the bank note, but Lao Liu bit him and yelled, and the attack was even harder.
"Stop!" Lin Jinhua said coldly, and those people stopped their movements and looked her up and down. Although she was dressed in plain white, the material of the clothes was very good, let alone the hairpin on her head. The jade hairpin that shines brightly, looks like a lady from a rich family.
They knew it in their hearts, and many ladies were soft-hearted and liked to give alms, so they stepped forward and said with a smile: "Miss, it's not that we are cruel, it's just that this beggar stole my son's money, and we didn't have anything to do with it."
Seeing that it was her who came, Lao Liu felt a little more confident. Even though his face was swollen from being kicked, he looked at them straight and said, "I didn't steal any money!"
"If you continue to quibble, I will beat you to death today!" The man raised his hand and was about to start beating again, but he saw a young man in brocade clothes coming, with a folding fan in his hand, he stopped his hand gracefully and said with a light smile, "Before the beautiful lady , how can you be so rough?"
Lin Jinhua looked at the person who came, but she didn't expect it to be him, and the corners of her mouth twitched playfully.This person was also a well-known dandy in his previous life, he had a better status than the local hooligans, he claimed to be a romantic talent, but he was an idiot, and more importantly, he was a master of all sexes, and he fell ill soon died……
Lin Jinyu looked at the acne on the corner of his mouth, and thought that the disease was already present and would erupt soon, so she couldn't help taking a step back, and smiled slightly: "May I ask this young master..."
"My surname is Xiong, but I am the nephew of the current Prime Minister and Concubine De." He is quite proud of this identity.
"Young Master Xiong, your servant identified this beggar..."
"Hey, tell me what they are doing." Xiong Shilin opened the folding fan coquettishly and shook it, and said, "Dare to ask the lady's name? Although I, Xiong, have no official position now, I will definitely be able to go to high school next year and find an official position." It's not a problem." There are a lot of Lin Jinhua in his slender eyes, and the more he looks at them, the more he looks more beautiful, especially those eyes that are as black as lacquer, which make people want to kiss him.
Yuan Luyi, who came out with her, found it interesting, stepped forward and smiled slightly: "Sorry, this young lady is already engaged, and she came out only for you to beat this beggar."
There were more and more people watching, Xiong Shilin was a little dissatisfied when he heard this, but he also recognized Yuan Luyi, the savage princess, and hurriedly saluted and said with a smile: "I know a lot of young masters in the capital, dare to ask the lady to decide Which one? Maybe they felt that they were not worthy that day, so they regretted the marriage?"
Yuan Lvyi frowned and spat lightly: "You dare to say such vicious words, this is the Seventh Miss of the Lin family, and the one who has engaged her is His Royal Highness King Ning!"
When Xiong Shilin heard that it was King Ning, he quickly put away his flirtatious face, laughed and said, "It turned out to be Miss Lin, disrespectful and disrespectful, but the evidence that this stinky beggar stole my money is solid, there is nothing to say." Forget it, glanced at the person next to him and said sharply: "What are you still doing in a daze, take it away!"
Where did the servants dare to delay, they rushed forward to grab Lao Liu and were about to leave. The little beggar who had been beaten to the ground began to cry and beg for mercy, but Lao Liu gritted his teeth firmly: "I didn't steal the money, if I can't, go to the government." Say it!"
"Government?" The servant snorted sarcastically: "Master Guan has to look at the face of our Prime Minister and Empress Defei!"
"It turns out that the reputations of the concubine and the prime minister were smeared by you." The corners of Lin Jinyu's lips curled up.
When Xiong Shilin heard it, he felt something was wrong, and turned to look at her: "Miss Lin, don't talk nonsense, how could I discredit my uncle and aunt?" .
Lin Jinhua looked at him and asked, "What if this banknote really wasn't stolen from you?"
"how is this possible……"
"The banknotes are all taken from the bank. Since Mr. Xiong comes from an aristocratic family, he wouldn't just pick a small bank to deposit the silver. The banknotes used will always be those big ones, right?" Lin Jinhua asked.
Xiong Shilin didn't expect this. After thinking about it, he frowned and said, "My bank notes are all taken from the four major banks in the capital."
Seeing what he said, Lin Jinhua asked again, "Do you have a ticket number?"
Xiong Shilin thought for a while, but couldn't remember any small ticket number, so he simply shook his head: "The Xiong family is not a small family, how could it be possible to go to those small banks."
"It's true, for a person like Mr. Xiong, it would be demeaning to go to a small bank." Lin Jinyu raised the corner of her mouth and looked at Lao Liu: "Then show your bank note to everyone, if it comes from four Big Qianzhuang, I can't help you anymore."
The sixth child felt puzzled, looked at the bank note in his hand, gritted his teeth, and slowly opened it. The writing on it was not small, and others could see it clearly at a glance. It came from a little-known bank.
Even if someone followed suit.
Xiong Shilin's face turned blue from embarrassment, but he saw Lin Jinhua saying: "It should be a misunderstanding. Mr. Xiong looked for the money on his body, did he lose it?" put.
Hearing this, he also understood it, and hurriedly sent someone to look for it. The young man really 'found' the bank note that he hadn't found after folding up, and hurriedly laughed.
Lin Jinhua gave Lao Liu a wink, and Lao Liu hurriedly took advantage of the crowd and led the little beggar away.
Lin Jinhua also heaved a sigh of relief, and was about to turn her head to leave, when suddenly a sarcastic and sharp voice came: "Who am I supposed to be a hero here, I never thought it would be you, the tortured person."
Lin Jinhua looked over, and saw that Lin Zisu was leading a young lady here.This young lady has a square face with narrow eyes and protruding cheekbones, faintly, as if she is three points similar to the Kang Jiao she has seen before.
When Xiong Shilin saw Lin Zisu, his eyes went straight.
Lin Zisu hurriedly pulled her and said, "Don't say that, this is my seventh sister."
"Seventh Sister? Heh, it's just that you are kind-hearted and still treat her as a younger sister. She has killed so many people, and she is still playing a hero here." After finishing speaking, he turned to look at Xiong Shilin and said, "My lord, I I advise you to stay away from her, but no one who gets close to her will end well."
"This..." Xiong Shilin was still afraid of King Ning and didn't dare to say anything, but she pointed at the corner of her mouth and exclaimed: "Oh, why do you have a sore on your mouth? Could it be that someone suppressed you to get a strange disease?" gone?"
Lin Jinhua never thought that her blind cat had bumped into a dead mouse. Xiong Shilin was indeed sick and would explode soon, but he should know it in his heart.
Xiong Shilin covered his mouth and turned pale: "Sore..." He trembled and said it several times, then turned around and was about to run back, but stopped halfway.Speaking of that strange disease would definitely make people laugh at it, but if it is said that it was suppressed by a person who is recognized as a criminal, then there is nothing to say.
He turned around and stared at Lin Jinhua viciously: "It wasn't there when I left the house in the morning, but I have just talked to you for a while, Miss Lin, are you really the reincarnation of an evil star! I heard that you not only killed your dear Mother, the eldest family of the Lin family is not at peace, King Ning is seriously injured, and even Kang Shilang, who you stayed with yesterday, was assassinated..."
Yuan Luyi's face turned livid when he heard it: "What can't be done, stop talking nonsense."
Lin Jinhua only gritted her teeth secretly, looking at the proud Lin Zisu hiding behind the woman from the Kang family, before she could speak, she saw the woman from the Kang family turn her eyes, pointing behind Lin Jinhua and shouting: "No, then The horse is crazy!"
Lin Jinhua turned her head hastily, but watched helplessly that there was indeed a crazy horse coming towards her, and it was facing her side concubine Wei Yunyi who was not far away from her!
(End of this chapter)
The wing rooms of Puji Temple are not big, and it seems crowded for three or four people.
Madam Zheng rested for a while, and she really woke up. After taking a breath, she saw Lin Jinhua who was sitting on the side, her eyes immediately became sharp.
Lin Jinhua calmly waited for her to say harsh words, but Zheng Ruyi sensed her mother's anger, and said first, "Mother, it was Miss Lin who saved you."
"Really?" Mrs. Zheng and her daughter looked at each other, and their eyes softened instantly. They looked at Mrs. Dingnanhou who came with them, and struggled to get up to thank them.
Seeing this, Mrs. Hou just smiled and said: "You are not in good health, just rest. Since there is no abnormality in your body, then I will take Jinhua to talk to the master first."
Mrs. Zheng saw that Mrs. Dingnanhou, who had always been domineering, valued Lin Jinhua so much, she secretly slandered her, but she changed her mind. Wouldn't it be better if she was willing to support her like this?
She smiled weakly: "I came here today to pray for blessings, but now that so many things have happened in the Zheng family, I am really flustered, and I haven't asked the master for an autograph yet..."
Madam Hou heard this, and looked at Zheng Ruyi who was standing beside her, she looked very well-behaved and generous, but she knew the grievances between the Zheng family and the Lin family, so she just said: "It's okay to go later..."
"It's too late, I'm afraid it's not good to sign the document." Seeing that she was going to refuse, Mrs. Zheng tightened her hand holding the quilt slightly, but she only pleaded: "I can't go, if Mrs. Hou doesn't Dislike, can you take my daughter with you?"
Seeing what she said, Mrs. Hou hesitated for a moment, then turned her head and looked at Lin Jinhua inquiringly. Lin Jinhua knew that she couldn't refuse anymore, and she wouldn't be such a bad person, so she nodded with a smile.
They went out of the yard to wait, and Zheng Ruyi took care of Mrs. Zheng inside.
Taking advantage of this gap, Mrs. Hou looked at her with a calm face, and asked, "It's not easy for the Hou family to interfere with the affairs of the Zheng and Lin families. You should know."
Lin Jinhua smiled obediently: "Jinhua understands Madam Hou's thoughts, and I am very grateful to Madam Hou for being willing to accompany Jinhua over here."
Seeing that she didn't seem to complain at all, Mrs. Hou thought she was sensible, and liked her more and more.But just now if she refused to agree or lost her temper, she would never indulge her.She knew this, and so did Lin Jinhua. Madam Hou treated her well only because she believed that Madam Hou would conceive a son in the next two months.
Not long after, Zheng Ruyi came out, wearing a green cloak, she looked very elegant and generous.
A little bit embarrassed, she stepped forward to salute, and then said: "After my brother passed away, my mother has been confused. Please Madam Hou and Sister Lin don't blame me."
Lin Jinhua looked at her slightly upturned eyes, clenched her hands hanging in her sleeves tightly, but her face was calm: "Mrs. Hou is the most kind, so I won't argue with you. Let's go."
The smile on Madam Hou's face grew more and more, and she led Lin Jinhua forward with a few simple and polite words.
Along the way, Zheng Ruyi was well-behaved, she won Madam Hou's favor with a few words, and even said that she would go to her house for a small gathering in a few days.
When they arrived at the abbot's meditation room where the lottery was drawn, Lin Jinhua was not interested in signing the papers, but the master said that Mrs. Hou would have a son, which made her very happy.
"Madam Hou is blessed at first glance. When she becomes pregnant with a young son, Ruyi will definitely come to fulfill Madam Hou's wish." Zheng Ruyi said with a smile, holding her arm affectionately.
Two blushes rose on Mrs. Hou's face, and she smiled shyly at her: "Thank you for having such a heart, but I am not a few years older than you. From now on, I don't need to be called by Mrs. Hou, as it seems natural, I will call my sister." that is."
"Yes, good sister." Zheng Ruyi bent her eyes and smiled, as if she was really happy to be pregnant with her own sister.
Lin Jinyu sat calmly opposite the master, looking at a cup of tea in front of him. The color of the tea is translucent, but the fragrance is light but lingers on the tip of the nose for a long time. It is different from those famous teas. She couldn't help smiling and asked the master sitting opposite: "This tea is grown by the masters themselves. of?"
The master abbot was a kind old man, and nodded with a slight smile when he heard the words: "It's rare for the benefactor to guess that there is a small tea garden in the back mountain, and monks will take care of it in their free time, some of which are kept for their own use, and some are given to pilgrims."
Lin Jinhua's eyes lighted up slightly, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised. If I remembered correctly, there was a monk in the previous life who used this tea as a tribute. Even the undead emperor liked it very much, and specially named the monk a 'National Teacher'.
"Is this tea really good?" Mrs. Hou asked curiously, not knowing about tea.
Zheng Ruyi sniffed it, and smiled slightly: "It's really good tea. The fragrance is dew on the flower, and the water absorbs the spring in the stone. The fragrance is overflowing, like the fragrance of flowers soaked in dew. It is rich and delicate, and the taste is sweet."
After she finished speaking, she realized that Mrs. Hou, who was still affectionate just now, looked much paler now.
Madam Hou turned her face to Lin Jinhua and said with a smile, "Tell me, what's so good about this tea?"
"Fragrant." Lin Jinhua smiled faintly. Mrs. Hou is good at embroidery, but she doesn't like reading, and she doesn't like people who stick to words. Zheng Ruyi is now exporting famous poems, so Mrs. Hou doesn't like it.
After hearing this, Mrs. Hou laughed out loud, "You're honest."
Zheng Ruyi's hand holding the teacup was slightly stiff, and her face was a little embarrassed.
Master Abbot saw through but didn't tell the truth, and drew Lin Jinhua and Zheng Ruyi's lottery. Lin Jinhua asked about the future, so he made the next lottery, while Zheng Ruyi was about the marriage, and the upright lottery.
Mrs. Hou frowned: "Jinhua, you ask about the future of a daughter, why not ask about the marriage."
Master Abbot took a deep look at Lin Jinhua, and said with a smile, "Three signings a day will not work in the future. Donor, please come again next time."
Lin Jinhua was also relieved that her fate in this life was picked, and she didn't care about marriage or not, but she just smiled: "A signature is just a signature after all, and what happens in the future depends on myself."
Zheng Ruyi's face turned pale slightly, thinking that Lin Jinhua's words were aimed at her, and mist filled her eyes immediately, and she forced a smile: "Miss Lin said so."
Seeing how sensitive she was, Mrs. Hou frowned slightly, but she didn't say anything, but felt a little troubled in her heart.
After coming out of the master, Lin Jinhua still wanted to find Mrs. Xiong, so she said that she would go back and ask the master and left first.
When Zheng Ruyi watched her leave, her hands in her sleeves were already clenched tightly.
Seeing that she was not moving, Mrs. Hou asked strangely, "Ruyi, what's the matter?"
Zheng Ruyi turned her face around with a gentle look, looked at the exhausted look on her face, and smiled softly: "Ruyi heard that rubbing a few acupuncture points on her shoulders can make a girl stay young forever, and my sister is also tired. Why don't you let Ruyi press it for you?"
Madam Hou's eyes lit up, she agreed happily and led her to the wing where she was resting.
For Lin Jinhua's place, she hid on the side and saw someone leave, and then quickly walked to the wing where Mrs. Xiong lived, holding up her skirt.
Mrs. Xiong stood under the plum tree in the yard in dejection because of the reconciliation and quietly wiped her tears. When Lin Jinhua came, she forced a smile: "Why are you here?"
Lin Jinhua saw that she had lost a lot of weight, so she didn't say anything, she just smiled and said, "I just passed by and saw the plum blossoms in the yard blooming well, so I came here without knowing it."
"Really..." She forced a smile, but she didn't have the heart to start a conversation, nor did she have the heart to look at the plum blossom.
Lin Jinhua looked at the plum blossom petals falling on the ground, and sighed softly.
Mrs. Xiong was puzzled: "What's wrong?"
Lin Jinhua just shook her head: "Scattered pieces are turned into mud and dust, but who knew that this plum blossom once bloomed proudly on its branches?"
Mrs. Xiong seemed to be touched, her eyes were wet again, she quietly turned her back to wipe away her tears, and said with a helpless smile: "So what if the branches once bloomed? Spring comes and autumn goes, new flowers will always bloom, and old flowers will wither."
Lin Jinhua shook her head: "If it were me, I would have gritted my teeth and made this last withered flower. Otherwise, if I turned into mud, wouldn't I still have to support them?"
Mrs. Xiong paused for a moment, turned around and looked at Lin Jinhua. The accumulated emotions in her heart made her unable to hold back her low sobs, and then she vented and said everything about the prime minister's mansion. Looking down on her as a sister-in-law, it seems that nothing goes well when the concubine designs her.
Lin Jinhua listened to everything in silence, and after Mrs. Xiong said everything, her mood improved a lot.
She looked at Lin Jinhua's long but still delicate face, sighed and shook her head: "I'm more than ten years older than you, yet I'm still talking about this to you little girl."
Lin Jinhua smiled: "Madam looks young, she looks like she is three or four years older than Jinhua, and there are not many close people around Jinhua. Now that she has heard what Madam said, when she gets married in the future, she will have a feeling in her heart." number."
Mrs. Xiong laughed out loud when she heard the words, and felt more and more sympathetic as a woman.
She looked up at the plum blossom tree in front of her, and felt that it was not as beautiful as before, but the fallen flowers on the ground were more lovable.She squatted down slightly, spread out her handkerchief, picked some up and stuffed them into her sleeves, then said with a smile: "Go back and make a sachet, so it's good to be alert all the time." After finishing speaking, she paused: "What I just told you... ..."
"Don't worry, ma'am, Jinhua has forgotten all about it." Lin Jinhua rolled her eyes and smiled.
Mrs. Xiong was also wary of her because she saved her son last time. Now that she heard her say that, she felt relieved and said with a smile, "I can't see that you are such an interesting person." .By the way, I heard that your father is coming back soon. There will be a banquet in the palace before the New Year's Eve. You will probably go there at that time. Don't run around this time." If the incident with Defei Koi didn't happen just in time She went to save her son, and the hat was probably on her head.And when she said that, she knew that Concubine De had resentment towards her.
Lin Jinhua knew that Mrs. Xiong only spoke to repay the matter just now, so she nodded with a smile.
"It's getting late, you came with Mrs. Hou, so let's go down the mountain together. Although Puji Temple is a national temple, there are all kinds of people who come here. You, a daughter, should pay attention." Mrs. Xiong After exhorting, he turned around and left.
Seeing that it was indeed getting late, Lin Jinhua turned around to look for Mrs. Hou, but unexpectedly, not far from the yard, the wind suddenly picked up and the sky quickly turned dark. This was a sign of a heavy snowstorm coming.
She debated the direction, lifted her skirt and ran forward quickly.
The wind and snow were getting bigger and bigger, gradually blinding people's eyes, and Lin Jinzheng began to find it difficult to move forward.She was barely clinging to the wall. The wind and snow were so heavy that she couldn't tell the direction, so she could only keep walking until there was some abnormal smell in the wind and snow, which seemed to be the smell of blood.
She sensed something was wrong, and wanted to leave quickly, but suddenly a big and generous hand was placed on her shoulder. She gritted her teeth slightly, turned around and kicked the man, only to kick the man on the ground with a muffled groan, white The snow has been dyed red.
"Are all women so ruthless nowadays..." He squeezed out a sentence in pain.
Lin Jinhua frowned, turned around and wanted to continue walking, but the man grabbed her ankle: "Help me."
"Let go." Lin Jinyu said coldly, she was covered in blood here, she either killed someone or was hunted down, she didn't want to risk her life for a stranger.
Seeing her so calm and indifferent, the man looked at her in surprise: "Are you a woman?"
Lin Jinhua was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, so she raised her foot and stepped hard on his wrist. Seeing that he was in pain, she let go, turned around and left quickly.
Seeing this, the man gritted his teeth angrily, and shouted at her back: "Damn girl, just wait for me!"
Lin Jinhua didn't care, she walked forward quickly, but luckily she arrived at Mrs. Hou's yard not far away.
At that time, Mrs. Hou was also worried. Seeing her coming back, she asked her to sit down and said, "It's a good thing you're fine. I'm going to send someone to look for you."
Lin Jinhua took off the cloak and put it away, then smiled and said, "I'm fine, but I'm afraid I won't be able to go back due to the heavy snowstorm tonight."
Madam Hou's complexion was a little gloomy, as if she was worried about something, hearing the whistling wind outside, her brows also frowned.
A woman came in from the outside in a hurry, and before she had time to dust off the snow, she stepped forward and said: "Madam, I asked the bearer and said that it is too dangerous to go down the mountain in such a heavy snowstorm. The news is over, Master Hou should not be worried, don't worry."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Hou nodded in disappointment, bowed her head to drink tea and stopped talking.
Lin Jinhua looked at it, and probably knew that she was worried that Lord Hou would spoil other women. The woman who forced Mrs. Hou away in the previous life would make Ying Ying appear...
She smiled slightly and said, "When I came here, I saw a plum tree in the yard. Why don't you ask someone to find some petals to make rouge."
Mrs. Hou was not in the mood, Lin Jinhua said with a slight smile: "Although the fragrance of plum blossoms is weak, the rouge made with soft snow water not only has a good color, but also has a long-lasting fragrance. People who are close to it will see it for several days. Not as good as other scents."
Madam Hou paused, and looked up at her: "Really?" In order to prepare for pregnancy, she has not used rouge and powder for a long time: "Then this is for the child..."
"It's made of pure flower petals, it won't affect children."
Lin Jinhua dispelled her worries, and Mrs. Hou immediately went to do it, and her mood improved a lot.
It was almost the second watch, and Mrs. Hou went to sleep contentedly.
Lin Jinhua also went back to the room to rest, but just took off her coat when she heard that the window seemed to be not closed tightly, and was blown by the wind and made a noise. But stretched in.
Lin Jinhua didn't even think about it, and directly dripped the wax on that hand. He grunted in pain but did not let go.
Lin Jinhua pulled out the hairpin and was about to stab it, when the man's head came in through the window, watching her gnashing her teeth: "Can you be like an ordinary woman, screaming and terrified!"
Lin Jinzheng's eyes were cold, and the hairpin in his hand was about to stab it, but he grabbed his wrist with his backhand and pushed it back violently.She took a few steps back before stopping, and when she looked again, he had already crawled in.
"go out!"
"Get out!" The man was covered with injuries, and the scene of climbing in from the window was weird and gloomy, and he was full of resentment.
Lin Jinhua's brows were tightly furrowed before she opened her mouth to shout, but she heard him say, "Don't worry, let me tell you who I am first, okay?"
"Who?"
Seeing that she finally gave him a chance to speak, the man let out a long sigh of relief: "I came to the capital to find someone."
"Who are you looking for?"
"Zhao Huaiyan, do you know him?" He saw a pot of tea on the bedside table, and hurried forward to pour a cup.
Lin Jinhua's face darkened slightly: "What are you looking for him for?"
The corner of the man's mouth was raised evilly, and he glanced at her: "I want a debt."
Lin Jinhua didn't remember who Zhao Huaiyan owed to anyone in her previous life, and this person had a very strange face, she must have never seen him in her previous life.
As he said that, the man took out a piece of round yellow jade from his waist and handed it to her: "If you save me, I will give this to you."
"No." Lin Jinhua looked at him coldly: "Go out."
The man raised the jade in his hand, he was very surprised, but he said with a smile: "Little girl, you don't know this piece of jade, do you?"
Lin Jinhua did not know him.
The corner of the man's mouth was raised higher: "Have you heard of Yunshuijian, the first pavilion in Jianghu?"
"No." How could it be that Lin Jinhua hadn't heard of Yunshuijian, the largest organization in Jianghu, which specialized in collecting and selling people's information, secretly doing some murders and robbery.
The man was dumbfounded, and coughed twice: "I said you..."
Just as he was talking, there was noise outside, Lin Jinzheng glanced indifferently, it seemed that someone was coming with a torch.
The man became nervous, and hurriedly said: "You have to save me, and I will give you whatever you want when the time comes."
Lin Jinhua glanced at him, and was about to open the door to buy him, but he said in a panic, "You can marry Zhao Huaiyan as a princess if you want, princess, that is very honorable!"
Lin Jinhua hesitated for a moment, this person is so determined, and when he mentioned Zhao Huaiyan, he didn't hate him, so isn't he Zhao Huaiyan's enemy?
Just as he was talking, a conversation between the guard and the woman came from outside.
"Have you ever seen a young man covered in wounds?"
"I didn't see it. This is Madam Dingnanhou's yard. It is strictly guarded. It is impossible for outsiders to come in." The old woman smiled, and after finishing speaking, she asked again: "What did that man do?"
The attendant thought for a while before saying, "Since it's Mrs. Hou, remind her to be careful. Kang Shilang, who came to offer incense tonight, was killed."
Kang Shilang?Kang Jiao?
Lin Jinhua looked back at the man in surprise, but he unexpectedly climbed onto her only bed and fell asleep unceremoniously.
Lin Jinhua gritted her teeth slightly, looked at the big puddle of blood on the ground, and then at the yellow jade he left on the table by her hand, and sighed helplessly, hoping that this person was Zhao Huaiyan's helper.
The wind and snow stopped in the middle of the night, and the sound of searching on the mountain continued until dawn.
Mrs. Hou was in a hurry to go back, and she called Lin Jinhua down the mountain early.
When the man woke up, the door was locked from the outside, the floor had been cleaned up, and there were two plates of pastries on the small tea table.
He reluctantly sat up and found that several serious wounds on his body had been healed. He couldn't help but smile, "The woman Zhao Huaiyan likes is really nice!" I looked around, saw no one, and left quickly.
When Lin Jinhua returned to Lin's mansion, Cai'er hurriedly told what happened in the mansion when she was not there yesterday, and couldn't help laughing as she talked: "It turns out that when the old lady was here, the eldest lady kept pressing down on the second lady and bullying us. , Now it’s good, I can’t do anything except yelling and scolding a few times, I heard that there will be people coming from the Japanese clan for a while, the eldest lady is afraid that she will suffer.”
"Don't worry about it." Lin Jinyu leaned against the couch with the stove simmering and rested for a while before asking, "Is Bai Lan feeling better?"
Cai'er covered her lips and smiled straight: "Mother Yang has been quite obedient since the second lady punished her last time. You asked her to take care of Bai Lan. She is careful, and Bai Lan has improved a lot."
Lin Jinhua smiled slightly, people are afraid of death.
While resting, Yang's mother came in respectfully and said softly: "Miss, there is a Princess Yuan at the gate of the mansion, who said he would invite you out of the mansion."
"Princess Yuan?" Lin Jinhua thought of Yuan Luyi who had only met once, but she didn't know why she suddenly invited herself: "She came alone?"
"There is also the Ninth Prince's side concubine. The second lady is resting in the front hall at the moment, and the servant has heard the news and hastened to report it." Yang's mother's thin face has been haggard these days, and she looked at Lin Jinhua with hope.She finally figured it out, the current Seventh Miss is not the same as before, the third master is about to return triumphantly, and the Seventh Miss will be even more honorable at that time, it is better to curry favor with her than the second lady who turned her face and refused to recognize anyone.
Seeing her attentiveness, Lin Jinhua nodded with a smile, "I see."
Mama Yang gritted her teeth slightly, turned around and prepared to go down, and then she continued: "You may not have been home for a long time, so go back this afternoon if you have time, rest, and come back on duty tomorrow."
Upon hearing this, Mother Yang quickly knelt down and kowtowed to express her thanks.
After she left, Cai'er said excitedly: "Miss, can I help you pick out some clothes?"
When Lin Jinhua came back, she had washed and changed her clothes again, and she just shook her head when she heard the words: "I'm in the filial age, so I'm going to be plain, so it's okay."
Cai'er wanted to persuade her, but she had already got up and put on her white cloak, and went out with a paper umbrella.
Yuan Lvyi's head is very big at the moment, she is free by nature, and she is the least used to listening to people's lectures, but the second wife is still blindly saying flattering words.
The Ninth Prince and Side Concubine listened quietly, answering a sentence or two from time to time, until Lin Zisu came over.
Lin Zisu is still wearing a light purple cross-neck and wide-sleeved long dress today, with a string of wreaths and blue field jade tied around her waist. When she walks, she jingles, making her already extremely beautiful become a little playful and cute.
She saw the Ninth Prince's side concubine who was weak as if a gust of wind was about to blow her away, raised her chin slightly, stepped forward to meet her with a polite smile, and said, "I've heard about the side concubine's name for a long time, and I saw it today, it really looks like a beautiful painting." Like."
The side concubine's name is Wei Yunyi. Hearing this, she just smiled slightly: "Miss Lin is a fairy that His Highness also praises. How can I compare?"
Lin Zisu couldn't hide her pride when she heard this.
Yuan Lvyi couldn't see it, so she curled her lips: "I think the side concubine is better-looking, Brother Jiu likes you for being so gentle."
Faced with these words, Lin Zisu couldn't hold back her face. She glanced at Mrs. Ye, gritted her teeth secretly, and said with a smile: "This is the princess, I heard that the kung fu is very good..."
"What's so good about women dancing swords and guns?" Yuan Lvyi replied mercilessly.
Lin Zisu looked even more embarrassed, Wei Yunyi saw it, and smiled slightly: "Miss Lin has no malicious intentions."
Yuan Luyi curled her lips and said no more, Wei Yunyi smiled politely at Lin Zisu.
Lin Zisu forced a smile and sat down beside her.Mrs. Ye gave her daughter a dark look, she couldn't hold a side concubine, if she became the main concubine in the future, wouldn't she be bullied.
Dang even said: "Zisu has been bored in the room for a long time, and I don't feel at ease when Jinhua goes out alone. I will let their sisters go out to play with the princess and side concubine in a while."
"No need..." Yuan Luyi hadn't finished his refusal, but Lin Jinhua just arrived.
Ye Shi looked at the uninvited person, glanced at Lan Qiu secretly, and then said with a smile: "You came just in time..."
Lin Jinhua kept her small movements in his eyes, and smiled slightly: "I just wanted to talk to my second aunt, but I didn't know that the side concubine and princess were also there."
Yuan Lvyi couldn't stay here any longer, so she stood up and pulled her along, saying, "Okay, let's go out earlier, let me tell you, it's very interesting that there are many strange people here in the capital today. With some medical skills, it happens to take care of the side concubine."
"Really?" Lin Jinhua chuckled, and Wei Yunyi stood up slowly while supporting the maid's hand, apologizing in her gentle eyes: "I didn't intend to trouble you, but the Ninth Prince said, if I want to To go out, I must be with you, so..."
Lin Jinhua recalled Zhao Qing's tenderness when he mentioned this side concubine, and smiled slightly: "I was just about to go out for a walk."
Lin Zisu saw that the three of them were so acquainted, and Yuan Luyi, who was ruthless just now, was also docile to her. She was so angry that the handkerchief in her hand was about to be scratched, but she tried her best to maintain a smile , stepped forward and said: "I know an old doctor who is very good at medicine..."
"Can it be better than the imperial physician in the palace?" Yuan Luyi thought of the way Lin Zisu flirted with Brother Jiu before, and he didn't like it in his heart, and he didn't bother to talk anymore, so he pulled Lin Jinhua outside.
Wei Yunyi shook his head helplessly, turned around and said to Ye Shi: "She has such a temperament, Madam, please don't mind."
"It's okay, the princess is lively and likes Jinhua, it's the Lin family's blessing." Ye's words were still tight.
Wei Yunyi got up and left without saying much.
After all, Lin Zisu didn't follow with a cheeky face, but after the people left, her eyes turned red with hatred: "When I become a princess in the future, I'll see how arrogant they are."
But Mrs. Ye just glared at her: "If you can't hold your breath, how can you make a big deal?"
"But……"
"But what. I heard that Kang Shilang of Puji Temple was assassinated. Didn't it just confirm her reputation as a criminal? The Kang mansion is probably in chaos today. If you see her, what do you think will happen?" Ye said with a smile.
When Lin Zisu heard this, her eyes lit up immediately: "A few days ago, a distant relative of the Kang family invited me to see rouge and gouache today, and the timing is just right."
Ye Shi nodded in satisfaction: "This is just like my daughter."
Lin Zisu looked in the direction where Lin Jinhua left, smiled coldly, and fought with me, I see how capable you are!
Lin Jinhua just got into the carriage here, seeing Wei Yunyi staring out of the window in a daze after sitting up, and looking at Yuan Luyi, she just spread her hands helplessly.
I don't know how long it took, the outside became lively, and Yuan Lvyi booked the private room of the teahouse early on, the second floor is next to the window, just in time to see the performances of those strange people downstairs.
Lin Jinhua had seen many of these performances in his previous life, and he was generally interested. Instead, his eyes turned to those who came to see the excitement. Some of them were having fun with their wives and belts, while some teenagers were looking inside with their heads stretched out. They were full of mundane fireworks, ordinary but warm. .
Looking at it, suddenly there were a few abrupt voices from below, Lin Jinhua looked down and saw the face of the sixth child.
The sixth child defended the knocked down person and shouted, "I will report to the police!"
"Report to the official? You stinky beggar, stealing our young master's silver, it would be good to kill you today!"
A few people who looked like servants kicked Lao Liu hard several times.
The sixth child was red-eyed, and the young boy seemed to be very strong at the moment: "This silver belongs to me, I didn't steal it!" He tried hard to argue, but those people laughed sarcastically: "You, a beggar, can have a full 100 taels of money!" Bank notes? You are afraid that you will never come to so many in your whole life, so what is it that you stole?"
"This is..." Old Liu was at a loss for words, he promised the young lady that he would never expose her, so he had no choice but to say: "This is my money, I didn't steal it!"
The man snorted, and kicked up hard again, and the people who followed him also started punching and kicking. The sixth child could only protect the people on the ground, holding his head reluctantly and letting them punch and kick.
Yuan Luyi also looked over, but frowned: "Is there no one from the government to take care of it?"
"The capital is so big, how can the government manage it." Wei Yunyi looked at it with pity and sighed softly.
Lin Jinhua looked at the sixth child who was gritting his teeth and didn't speak, then turned around and walked out.
Yuan Luyi called to her: "Jinhua, what are you doing?"
"I know that person." Lin Jinhua simply explained, and immediately took Cai'er down.
Seeing that Lao Liu didn't open his mouth, those people were about to forcibly snatch the bank note, but Lao Liu bit him and yelled, and the attack was even harder.
"Stop!" Lin Jinhua said coldly, and those people stopped their movements and looked her up and down. Although she was dressed in plain white, the material of the clothes was very good, let alone the hairpin on her head. The jade hairpin that shines brightly, looks like a lady from a rich family.
They knew it in their hearts, and many ladies were soft-hearted and liked to give alms, so they stepped forward and said with a smile: "Miss, it's not that we are cruel, it's just that this beggar stole my son's money, and we didn't have anything to do with it."
Seeing that it was her who came, Lao Liu felt a little more confident. Even though his face was swollen from being kicked, he looked at them straight and said, "I didn't steal any money!"
"If you continue to quibble, I will beat you to death today!" The man raised his hand and was about to start beating again, but he saw a young man in brocade clothes coming, with a folding fan in his hand, he stopped his hand gracefully and said with a light smile, "Before the beautiful lady , how can you be so rough?"
Lin Jinhua looked at the person who came, but she didn't expect it to be him, and the corners of her mouth twitched playfully.This person was also a well-known dandy in his previous life, he had a better status than the local hooligans, he claimed to be a romantic talent, but he was an idiot, and more importantly, he was a master of all sexes, and he fell ill soon died……
Lin Jinyu looked at the acne on the corner of his mouth, and thought that the disease was already present and would erupt soon, so she couldn't help taking a step back, and smiled slightly: "May I ask this young master..."
"My surname is Xiong, but I am the nephew of the current Prime Minister and Concubine De." He is quite proud of this identity.
"Young Master Xiong, your servant identified this beggar..."
"Hey, tell me what they are doing." Xiong Shilin opened the folding fan coquettishly and shook it, and said, "Dare to ask the lady's name? Although I, Xiong, have no official position now, I will definitely be able to go to high school next year and find an official position." It's not a problem." There are a lot of Lin Jinhua in his slender eyes, and the more he looks at them, the more he looks more beautiful, especially those eyes that are as black as lacquer, which make people want to kiss him.
Yuan Luyi, who came out with her, found it interesting, stepped forward and smiled slightly: "Sorry, this young lady is already engaged, and she came out only for you to beat this beggar."
There were more and more people watching, Xiong Shilin was a little dissatisfied when he heard this, but he also recognized Yuan Luyi, the savage princess, and hurriedly saluted and said with a smile: "I know a lot of young masters in the capital, dare to ask the lady to decide Which one? Maybe they felt that they were not worthy that day, so they regretted the marriage?"
Yuan Lvyi frowned and spat lightly: "You dare to say such vicious words, this is the Seventh Miss of the Lin family, and the one who has engaged her is His Royal Highness King Ning!"
When Xiong Shilin heard that it was King Ning, he quickly put away his flirtatious face, laughed and said, "It turned out to be Miss Lin, disrespectful and disrespectful, but the evidence that this stinky beggar stole my money is solid, there is nothing to say." Forget it, glanced at the person next to him and said sharply: "What are you still doing in a daze, take it away!"
Where did the servants dare to delay, they rushed forward to grab Lao Liu and were about to leave. The little beggar who had been beaten to the ground began to cry and beg for mercy, but Lao Liu gritted his teeth firmly: "I didn't steal the money, if I can't, go to the government." Say it!"
"Government?" The servant snorted sarcastically: "Master Guan has to look at the face of our Prime Minister and Empress Defei!"
"It turns out that the reputations of the concubine and the prime minister were smeared by you." The corners of Lin Jinyu's lips curled up.
When Xiong Shilin heard it, he felt something was wrong, and turned to look at her: "Miss Lin, don't talk nonsense, how could I discredit my uncle and aunt?" .
Lin Jinhua looked at him and asked, "What if this banknote really wasn't stolen from you?"
"how is this possible……"
"The banknotes are all taken from the bank. Since Mr. Xiong comes from an aristocratic family, he wouldn't just pick a small bank to deposit the silver. The banknotes used will always be those big ones, right?" Lin Jinhua asked.
Xiong Shilin didn't expect this. After thinking about it, he frowned and said, "My bank notes are all taken from the four major banks in the capital."
Seeing what he said, Lin Jinhua asked again, "Do you have a ticket number?"
Xiong Shilin thought for a while, but couldn't remember any small ticket number, so he simply shook his head: "The Xiong family is not a small family, how could it be possible to go to those small banks."
"It's true, for a person like Mr. Xiong, it would be demeaning to go to a small bank." Lin Jinyu raised the corner of her mouth and looked at Lao Liu: "Then show your bank note to everyone, if it comes from four Big Qianzhuang, I can't help you anymore."
The sixth child felt puzzled, looked at the bank note in his hand, gritted his teeth, and slowly opened it. The writing on it was not small, and others could see it clearly at a glance. It came from a little-known bank.
Even if someone followed suit.
Xiong Shilin's face turned blue from embarrassment, but he saw Lin Jinhua saying: "It should be a misunderstanding. Mr. Xiong looked for the money on his body, did he lose it?" put.
Hearing this, he also understood it, and hurriedly sent someone to look for it. The young man really 'found' the bank note that he hadn't found after folding up, and hurriedly laughed.
Lin Jinhua gave Lao Liu a wink, and Lao Liu hurriedly took advantage of the crowd and led the little beggar away.
Lin Jinhua also heaved a sigh of relief, and was about to turn her head to leave, when suddenly a sarcastic and sharp voice came: "Who am I supposed to be a hero here, I never thought it would be you, the tortured person."
Lin Jinhua looked over, and saw that Lin Zisu was leading a young lady here.This young lady has a square face with narrow eyes and protruding cheekbones, faintly, as if she is three points similar to the Kang Jiao she has seen before.
When Xiong Shilin saw Lin Zisu, his eyes went straight.
Lin Zisu hurriedly pulled her and said, "Don't say that, this is my seventh sister."
"Seventh Sister? Heh, it's just that you are kind-hearted and still treat her as a younger sister. She has killed so many people, and she is still playing a hero here." After finishing speaking, he turned to look at Xiong Shilin and said, "My lord, I I advise you to stay away from her, but no one who gets close to her will end well."
"This..." Xiong Shilin was still afraid of King Ning and didn't dare to say anything, but she pointed at the corner of her mouth and exclaimed: "Oh, why do you have a sore on your mouth? Could it be that someone suppressed you to get a strange disease?" gone?"
Lin Jinhua never thought that her blind cat had bumped into a dead mouse. Xiong Shilin was indeed sick and would explode soon, but he should know it in his heart.
Xiong Shilin covered his mouth and turned pale: "Sore..." He trembled and said it several times, then turned around and was about to run back, but stopped halfway.Speaking of that strange disease would definitely make people laugh at it, but if it is said that it was suppressed by a person who is recognized as a criminal, then there is nothing to say.
He turned around and stared at Lin Jinhua viciously: "It wasn't there when I left the house in the morning, but I have just talked to you for a while, Miss Lin, are you really the reincarnation of an evil star! I heard that you not only killed your dear Mother, the eldest family of the Lin family is not at peace, King Ning is seriously injured, and even Kang Shilang, who you stayed with yesterday, was assassinated..."
Yuan Luyi's face turned livid when he heard it: "What can't be done, stop talking nonsense."
Lin Jinhua only gritted her teeth secretly, looking at the proud Lin Zisu hiding behind the woman from the Kang family, before she could speak, she saw the woman from the Kang family turn her eyes, pointing behind Lin Jinhua and shouting: "No, then The horse is crazy!"
Lin Jinhua turned her head hastily, but watched helplessly that there was indeed a crazy horse coming towards her, and it was facing her side concubine Wei Yunyi who was not far away from her!
