Chapter 39 Fraud
Zhao Huaiyan had dinner, sat on the table and drank tea slowly, he had no intention of leaving at all, Lin Jincheng and his son could only accompany him.
Lin Jinhua was still thinking about what happened tonight, looked at Zhao Huaiyan who was above her, and said, "His Royal Highness Ning, the courtiers are exhausted, can you go back to your room to rest first?"
Lin Luzhi also took the opportunity to say: "My lord, why don't you go to Weichen's study to talk." He didn't like this son-in-law very much in his heart. It was rumored that he was indifferent and indifferent. How could his weak daughter marry him in the future? Don't you want to be bullied?
Zhao Huaiyan knew what the world thought of him, so he wasn't in a hurry, he responded immediately: "General Lin, please lead the way."
The word 'please' he used was respectful without losing his status.
Lin Jincheng noticed something strange, this King Ning looked at him, he didn't look like an outsider.
When Zhao Huaiyan passed in front of Lin Jinhua, he paused and said, "You have very little dinner, isn't it to your liking?"
Lin Jinhua didn't expect him to notice this, it's just that she never eats much: "My daughter never eats much."
Zhao Huaiyan glanced at her quickly with downcast eyes, her jade-like face under the candlelight was slightly thinner, but she was still in good spirits, but she always felt that she was too thin.
He glanced at it, then quickly withdrew his gaze and walked out with Lin Luzhi. It's not good for people to think that he is just a lecherous and frivolous person, so he walked away directly.
After he left, Lin Jinhua let out a long sigh of relief, but Lin Jincheng was a step behind and looked at her with a gentle smile: "Prince Ning seems to be different from the rumors."
Lin Jinhua pretended not to understand, and hastily sent the person away before he locked the courtyard door and went back to the room.
Yang's mother had been waiting inside early in the morning, and when she saw her coming, she rushed forward to meet her and said worriedly: "Miss, do you really want to go there by yourself?"
"After thinking about it, I always have to look at it myself to be at ease." She nodded, lightly changed into a black cloak, tied the veil, and turned around to search in the flower garden in the yard, picked a few herbs and crushed them In the veil, he left the mansion with Yang's mother.
Because Zhao Huaiyan stayed here for a long time at night, it was almost three o'clock when they went out, and the road had become empty, only a lantern on the side of the road was glowing with dim light.
At this time, Lan Qiu carefully pulled the things in his sleeves, looked at the humble mansion in front of Kang Ji, hesitated for a long time, and finally stepped forward and gently knocked on the door.
"Which one?" Someone inside asked impatiently, yawning.
Lan Qiu seemed to be choking on something and refused to speak, but she still remembered the second lady's order, and said in a low voice: "Go and tell Master Kang and Young Master Kang, just say that we have an appointment today, and I will come to see him."
The boy remembered Kang Ji's instructions during the day, so he got up and opened the door, and seeing that it was really a woman, he smiled ambiguously, with a bit of contempt in his eyes, and said, "Come in, sir. Wait in the backyard."
Lan Qiu gritted her teeth, clenched the things in her hand and followed her step by step.
Kang Ji had prepared a room early, and all the servants sent them away. When they saw Lan Qiu coming, he looked a little contemptuous, but put down the things he was playing with, stood up and stared at her for a long time, and then sneered, "It's not too old. , take off your clothes."
Lan Qiu's face was blue and purple, she had never experienced such a thing before, she just felt chills all over her body, she stood tensely for a long time without moving, but Kang Ji was already impatient, he slapped her hard with a slap She fell to the ground, and then rushed forward, a pair of big hands quickly tore open her clothes: "It's already here, why are you pretending to be a chaste woman?" He looked at her exposed white and delicate neck, and stepped forward. She was about to chew on it, but she caught a glimpse of the dagger hidden in her sleeve.
Looking at the dagger, Kang Ji suddenly understood, but he just snorted coldly: "Stinky bastard, you still want to kill me. If you dare to kill me, I will let everyone in the capital know about Ye's nasty things tomorrow!" After all, he pressed her wrist and began to enter roughly, ignoring her feelings at all.
Lan Qiu's face turned pale from the pain, but it wasn't over yet. After Kang Ji was done, he had his son Kang Yao called over.
Kang Yao was less timid, but he still remembered that day when Lan Qiu pointed at them contemptuously, looked at the woman whose skin was exposed on the ground, and rubbed his hands together: "Father, it really made me..."
"Hurry up, and when it's done, buy her to go to the Goulan Courtyard. Since she doesn't want to serve only one man, let her serve a group of men!" Kang Ji spat on the ground, turned his head and had the door closed and left.
As soon as the person left, Kang Yao rushed forward impatiently, but he didn't realize that Lan Qiu had already quietly reached the dagger.
When Kang Yao hugged her to die, he gritted his teeth and stabbed the dagger into his back fiercely.
Kang Yao cried out in pain, but Lan Qiu was not completely unprepared, and there was a drug hidden in her hollow hairpin.
She took out the drug and sprinkled it all on his face while he was wailing. Kang Ji's screams stopped abruptly, and his fat body fell directly on top of her.
Lan Qiu pushed the person away, glanced at the room with red eyes, looked at the burning oil lamp on the side, stepped forward and pushed down the oil lamp, pulled down the curtain on the side and lit it, and slowly saw the fire in the room, and then went out of the room After locking the door, he quickly ran to the entrance of the courtyard and waited for Kang Ji to return.
This Kang's mansion is not Kang Shilang's mansion, there are not many people in the mansion.
Before Kang Ji had gone far, when he saw the fire, he wanted to go back to save his son without thinking, but just after entering the yard, Lan Qiu behind him stabbed at him like crazy, but because Kang Ji was a grown man after all , Dodging left and right, although he was stabbed several times, none of them were fatal.
Kang Ji looked at her who seemed to be insane, and gritted his teeth with hatred: "It turns out that the second lady told you to come and kill me!"
Now Lan Qiu only wants to kill him, if he does not die, the second wife will not let her go.
"It has nothing to do with the second lady!" She said in a low voice, holding a sharp dagger and rushing towards her.Seeing this, Kang Ji rushed out without caring about his son.
It is very close to the back door of the courtyard, but far away from the servant's room where the servants live. As he ran, he thought of the words in the letter before, if something happened, he would go to the back alley and wait. He didn't have time to react, so he just pulled Open the back corner door and flee into the back alley.
Lan Qiu hurriedly chased her out, wondering why the second lady's person hadn't come yet, but after chasing out of the back alley, she found a person she had never dreamed of standing at the back alley: "Miss Seven? will be here?"
"Of course I'm waiting for you." Lin Jinhua lifted her veil and smiled lightly.
Lan Qiu's face was immediately filled with murderous intent: "You designed all of this, and you are the one who wanted to kill the second lady!"
Lin Jinhua looked at her roughly wrapped in torn clothes and bruises all over her body, and raised her eyebrows slightly: "If I don't design her, she will come to harm me. I have no other choice."
Seeing her slowly approaching her, Lan Qiu put the hand holding the dagger slightly behind her back, waited slowly but said with a cold smile: "Miss Seven is really smart, but no matter how smart she is, she seems to have forgotten that you are just one It's just a weak woman..." After finishing speaking, seeing the person who had come up to her, she raised the dagger in her hand and stabbed at her heart.
Mother Yang who was following behind was startled and hurried to stop her, but Lin Jinhua threw the handkerchief stained with belladonna vine juice before she went out and threw it on Lan Qiu's face.
Lan Qiu saw that the dagger in his hand was about to pierce her neck, but he didn't dodge the veil, but his body, which was still full of strength just now, suddenly went limp, and he collapsed uncontrollably on the ground, the dagger in his hand Can't hold it and fall aside.
Seeing this, Mama Yang finally let out a long sigh of relief: "Miss, you scared the slaves to death." She looked at the calm Lin Jinhua at the side, thinking that before she left the house, she had found belladonna vines and kneaded them in the handkerchief. It turned out that she had expected this danger a long time ago. This young lady is really not an ordinary person...
Before she regained her senses, Kang Ji, who had narrowly escaped a catastrophe, suddenly rushed forward, picked up the dagger on the ground, and began to stab Lan Qiu fiercely, cursing as he stabbed: "Bitch, how dare you?" Kill me, I want your corpse to be shredded into thousands of pieces..."
Lan Qiu stared and grunted, but only spit out a mouth full of blood.
Mother Yang didn't expect Kang Ji to be so ruthless all of a sudden, she hurriedly pulled Lin Jinhua to leave, but Lin Jinhua scolded him coldly: "Stop, what are you doing!"
"Do you still want to let her go?" Kang Ji suddenly turned his head and smiled coldly: "So you gave me that letter, Miss Lin Jiaqi, if it wasn't for you, my son would not have died today!"
Lin Jinzheng's bright eyes were cold: "I only let you ask for money. Who would have thought that you would be so greedy and vicious that the second lady had to come and kill people to silence her." She knew that Kang Ji was unreliable, but she was also glad that she came here today.
Kang Ji looked back at Lan Qiu, who was covered in blood holes, and slowly got up with a dagger, and looked at her with a sneer: "Miss Seven, now I not only know the secret of the second lady, but also your secret, today you killed me!" After killing my son, what do you say you have to give me so that I can let you go?" He stared at Lin Jinhua's delicate face, his eyes became more and more cold: "If you come to accompany me for a night, let me try it too The taste of Princess Ning in the future..."
Before he finished speaking, Yang's mother quietly picked up a thick stick by the side of the road, and hit him hard on the back of the head.
Kang Ji caught a glimpse of Yang's mother's movement from the corner of his eye, and narrowly dodged, but was hit in the back, bared his teeth in pain, turned his head and kicked Yang's mother away: "Old woman, you are looking for death!" The energy hadn't faded yet, she raised the dagger in her hand and was about to stab him down, Mama Yang almost grabbed his stabbing hand, trembling all over but she didn't have the strength to push him away.
"Miss, find someone quickly." Mother Yang desperately asked for help, but she wasn't sure if Lin Jinhua would find someone to save her.
Seeing this scene, Lin Jinhua gritted her silver teeth slightly. Seeing the wooden stick that Mama Yang had dropped just now, she stepped forward to pick it up and hit him hard on the knee.
He was caught by Yang's mother and hit with the stick again. He heard the sound of bones breaking on the spot, and shouted in horror: "Lin Jinhua, you broke my leg! How can you be so vicious at such a young age!" He saw that Mama Yang had stood up, struggling to crawl back into the mansion.At this moment, because of the fire, the people in the Kang Manor had already woken up. As long as he went in, Lin Jinhua, including the second wife, would surely die tomorrow!
He struggled to crawl forward, but Lin Jinhua, who was familiar with the first time and the second time, stepped forward with a stick, and beat him hard on the other leg.
Mother Yang, who was still in shock, hurried forward and covered Kang Ji's mouth tightly to prevent him from yelling.
Kang Ji felt as if his legs had been broken alive, excruciating pain, because his mouth was covered, he could only whimper, and the dagger in his hand fell to the ground.
Mother Yang was trembling all over, and she looked at Lin Jinhua nervously: "Miss, do you want... to kill him?" She swallowed, but Kang Ji hurriedly shook his head and looked at Lin Jinhua beggingly.
Lin Jinhua had calmed down, she looked at Kang Ji indifferently, and motioned for Mother Yang to let go.
Mother Yang hesitated, but seeing her young lady's calm look, she let go of her hand slowly, but pressed Kang Ji to the ground to prevent him from moving.
Kang Ji was let go, took a big breath, and then hurriedly said: "Miss Seven, I have no grievances or enmities with you, let's pretend that this incident never happened, please let me go, I promise not to take your business seriously." Speak out."
No injustice?
Lin Jinhua sneered coldly in her heart. In this life, there was indeed no time to make enemies. In the last life, this Kang Ji used his father everywhere, and his father, who had always been a victim of blood-sucking bugs, was imprisoned several times.
"I can give you a way to survive." Lin Jinhua stepped forward and looked at him indifferently: "But from now on, you have to do everything I tell you."
"Yes, I'm all up to you." Kang Ji rolled his eyes, holding back the hatred that wanted to pounce on her and strangle her to death.
He wondered why Lin Jinhua couldn't see through it, but she just took out a thumbnail-sized pill from her sleeve and stuffed it into his mouth, pinching his throat for him to swallow, and then said: "This medicine will last three days. It will attack, if there is no antidote, you will itch all over your body, and you will die slowly until you say that all your flesh and blood are scratched. After a while, people from the government will come over, and I want you to admit collusion with the second lady, And point out that the second lady sent someone to kill you, but if you say a word wrong, you will die slowly as I said until you scratch all the intact skin in your body."
Mother Yang felt itchy all over her skin when she heard it. Kang Ji felt sick to his stomach, but he didn't dare to refute. Looking at her cruel eyes, she felt that she was not Miss Lin at all, but The demons from hell are here to take human lives.
He was secretly vicious, and nodded.
The corners of Lin Jinhua's mouth were raised high. Hearing the noise not far away, Mama Yang let him go, threw the stick on him, and turned to leave the alley.
Kang Ji watched her back leave, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to grab the throat, but he vomited for a while, and the bile was about to come out, but he still didn't spit out the pill.
Just when he was about to go back to the mansion to ask for a doctor, suddenly there was a commotion of vehicles and horses, and a group of officers and soldiers with torches just arrived, and they saw him and the dead Lan Qiu clearly.
From a distance, Yang's mother looked at the fire in Kang's mansion, and was very worried: "Miss, in case that Kang Ji turns his back on you, how can I tell you all about you?"
"If that's the case, then it's just what I want." Lin Jinzheng's eyes darkened, her originally delicate face was full of coldness and ruthlessness, seeing that Mama Yang was trembling all over, but she was also glad that she didn't choose to go against Miss Seven.
After quietly returning to the Lin Mansion, it was already approaching the fourth watch. Fortunately, winter nights are always long, and there were servants who got up early to clean up, but they didn't find her walking quietly in black.
She opened the courtyard door and was about to go back to the room, when the bushes on one side suddenly rustled.
Mother Yang was busy going to check, but was stopped by Lin Jinhua.
She turned towards that place lightly and said: "If anyone offends me, he will be punished. You should remember this carefully." After finishing speaking, An Jing stepped back.It is not difficult to guess who is hiding there. The closest room here belongs to Shan Cha and Yan Er.Yan'er is timid and acts cautiously, but Shan Cha knows that she often goes out to meet people through the corner door, so it must be her here.Going to arrest him now would alarm the people in the yard, so it would be better to let her.
Camellia hid in the bushes, and didn't dare to breathe heavily. Seeing her leave peacefully in black, her heart jumped in her throat and finally fell back, but when she thought of being hit by her on the board that day, she became very angry. Ping, seeing that she had gone back to the room and closed the door, then found a low wall and quietly turned over.
Mother Yang carefully opened the crack of the door and stared there, seeing that it was really her who came out of the bushes, so she turned and went back to Lin Jinhua.
Lin Jinhua sat in the flower hall, lit a candle, took off her cloak and held some hot tea before exhaling slowly.
"It's getting colder outside." Lin Jinhua looked at the glowing red charcoal fire basin and said, "If she freezes to death outside, it has nothing to do with me."
Mama Yang was startled, then saw her continue: "Passing by there is a small lake near the second aunt's yard, and there is a rockery by the lake where people can hide. What does mom think?"
Mother Yang understood, but her face paled a little: "I'll do it now, slave." She knew that seeing Lin Jinhua doing it herself today, she would not be at ease if she didn't hold the handle in her hands.
Lin Jinhua looked at her leaving back, put down the teacup, and stared at the charcoal fire basin for a while, sometimes she even wondered what Abi Hell was like, and whether it was as hot as this coal fire, but she was not afraid, even In the future, she will never let these people go in hell!
She sat for a while, until the sky was bright, and then returned to the room to lie down, but she just lifted the quilt, and suddenly found a man sleeping in his shirt on the bed.
She took half a step back, but her cold hand was caught by a big warm hand, and she fell into his masculine arms full of masculinity, and accidentally bumped into his hard chest. She frowned.
"Do you still know the pain?"
Asked coldly, with a bit of anger.
Lin Jinhua was also a little depressed at first, but when she heard this, her mood dropped instantly, and she said indifferently: "The prince doesn't return to the palace in the middle of the night, what are you doing here with the courtiers?"
Zhao Huaiyan looked at her dark eyes with anger, followed her eyes to look at her slender body, and said with thin lips, "It's late at night, it's not safe to walk at night, my king will take a nap here."
shameless!
Lin Jinhua scolded in her heart, but she only said on the face: "Father will definitely arrange a high-quality wing for the prince..."
"It's too cold to sleep alone."
Lin Jinhua: "..."
She didn't want to argue with him here, she just wanted to get up and rest, but the person on her body was hugged so tightly that she couldn't move at all.
"Don't move, sleep for a while." Zhao Huaiyan sighed slightly as she watched her frowning and about to leave.
Lin Jinhua faintly heard his sigh, but she was not sure, and said coldly: "My lord, I haven't passed the door yet, you are so frivolous, do you regard me as a woman in a brothel?"
After Lin Jinhua finished speaking, she thought that he would definitely let go of herself, but unexpectedly he lifted the quilt and wrapped her in, wrapped her tightly with the quilt, but got up by herself.
He put on his coat calmly, and said: "Although you have a thorough plan for tonight's matter, have you ever considered what the consequences will be if you are exposed?"
Lin Jinhua frowned slightly, did he see everything about him?
"When you left the house, Lin Jincheng followed you. He is very good at martial arts." He paused, seeing her frowning in a daze, but he was not willing to say anything else: "It's cold at night, next time you go out, wear more clothes .” After that, he walked away.
Lin Jinhua looked at the back of him leaving, a little hesitant.He said that brother is good at kung fu, could it be that he has fought against him?Was he ever injured?The last time I met him as an assassin in Dingnanhou Mansion, he was poisoned, what about this time?My brother's kung fu is no worse than Dingnanhou's...
As she thought about it, the strings in her mind suddenly tightened. What is she doing now, is she worried about him?
She didn't dare to think about it any further, she turned sideways and closed her eyes to force herself to sleep quickly, but she felt that there was something stuck under the pillow, she got up and opened it, it was a red wet veil.
She looked at the veil, and patted the pillow angrily. Could it be that he was really hurt, why didn't he say anything just now!
Just as he was thinking, there was suddenly the sound of chaotic footsteps outside, and then he heard Lin Jincheng talking to Bai Lan in a lowered voice.
"But what strange person has been here?"
Bai Lan rubbed her sleepy eyes and shook her head: "I didn't see or hear anything. My lord, something happened in the mansion, do you want to wake up Miss?"
Lin Jincheng paused, and then said: "There is an assassin in the mansion. He was injured when he fought with me. He may be hiding in the Lin mansion." He was worried about Lin Jinhua, and gently opened the door, walked to the side of the Nuan Pavilion and opened the curtain. Looking inside, he saw that Lin Jinhua had already fallen asleep wrapped in a quilt, so he came out quietly again: "Since she is asleep, there is no need to wake her up, so I can keep an eye on you."
Bai Lan nodded, seeing that the sky was getting brighter, she didn't go back to sleep, and went to the small kitchen to boil the hot water that Lin Jinhua would use in the morning.
When the movement outside completely disappeared, Lin Jinhua hurriedly got up, put on her outer shirt, and went out quietly.With his elder brother's martial arts skills and his father, if Zhao Huaiyan was really injured and caught again, it would be a disaster.
She trotted all the way, thinking that Zhao Huaiyan should have gone out of the courtyard to the front yard, so she opened the courtyard door to go out to look for it.But I didn't expect that just two steps out of the yard, I bumped into a familiar embrace, familiar fragrance, familiar pain.
Looking at the person wrinkling his nose in pain, Zhao Huaiyan's heart, which had been sinking just now, immediately jumped up lively.
"My lord, you didn't leave..." Lin Jinhua took half a step back and rubbed her nose. Before she could check whether he was injured, she found that there was a little smugness in his phoenix eyes.
Lin Jinhua was dumbfounded, this guy probably didn't intend to leave at all.
Zhao Huaiyan's thin lips curled up slightly, regardless of Lin Jinhua's willingness or not, she raised her hand and hugged him horizontally: "It's not safe to walk at night."
Lin Jinhua was dumbfounded, the sky would be bright in two moments.
Then, thinking of the wet handkerchief, he hurriedly said, "Then your injury..."
"Not hurt."
"That blood..."
"It's Zhu Mo, it was dyed by a painter, and I hid it under your pillow before I could put it away." Zhao Huaiyan walked forward slowly with the man in his arms, wishing he could just walk like this for the rest of his life.The person in his arms was very light, delicate and weak resisting his embrace, and all the worries just now subsided, but he knew that in this life, he was no longer wishful thinking.
Lin Jinhua looked at him coldly, and knew that the veil was probably used by him to deceive herself!
Back in the room, Lin Jinhua simply didn't bother to struggle anymore and let him fall asleep with his arms around her.
One night passed, not too long, but Zhao Huaiyan tried his best all his life.
Zhao Huaiyan looked at her fragile skin, her long eyelashes drooping like feathers, her breathing evenly, but the center of her brows was always twisted, and she would appear uncomfortable from time to time, talking painful dreams, Zhao Huaiyan knew that she must be dreaming again. It's in the previous life, and I knew it when I quietly came to give her medicine last time.
He held her carefully in his arms and patted her on the back lightly.When his mother and concubine were still around, he coaxed him like this. Now that there is another woman in his life, he will do everything in his power to protect her.
Lin Jinhua could feel his warmth, and the painful and struggling dream seemed to slowly dissipate.
When the light began to shine through the window, she woke up peacefully, for the first time.
The side is empty, I don't know when he left.There seemed to be his temperature and aroma in the quilt.Lin Jinhua was a little puzzled, what kind of man is Zhao Huaiyan?It is said that he is taciturn, withdrawn and indifferent, but what I see now is a completely opposite person.Moreover, in his previous life, he neither fought for the throne nor left, but the empress could not have allowed him to do so. With his ability, it was very easy to take over Zhao Kan, but he didn't make a move. So why did he stay in the capital?
Just as she was thinking, Cai'er came in from outside and interrupted her thoughts.
"Miss, Shan Cha is dead." Cai'er said while rolling up the curtain for her.
"Yeah." Lin Jinhua replied lightly, and sat up from the bed: "Where's Mama Yang?"
"The servant is here." Mother Yang came in from behind, and when she heard Cai'er's words, her hand holding the hot book basin tightened slightly.
Cai'er didn't notice anything strange, she just smiled and said, "Why don't you all wonder how Shan Cha died?"
"How did you die?" With a slight smile on the corner of Lin Jinyu's mouth, she stood up and went to the wardrobe. After looking around, she didn't choose plain white clothes, but chose a rouge-colored long skirt, which matched with a brocade-edged skirt. The cloak, and a simple bun, with two pearl flowers on the hairpin, and a little powder and daisy, you can see the cherry lips of the person in the mirror. Ladylike elegance and beauty.
Cai'er also couldn't care about Shan Cha's affairs anymore, she could only close her mouth from ear to ear in surprise: "It's been a long time since Miss cleans up, but when I dress up today, she looks much better than Fourth Miss."
Lin Jinzheng looked at the person in the mirror indifferently, the corners of her mouth curled up coolly, she wanted to accompany her brother to see Zheng Ruyi today, so what could she do without dressing up.
When they had breakfast together in the morning, Zhao Huaiyan still didn't leave, and he didn't have the slightest awareness of the guests. After dinner, he went to the morning court with Lin Luzhi and his son.
"Have you seen, the lord's eyes never leave Miss." Cai'er whispered after they left.
Bai Lan covered her lips and smiled straight: "Who didn't realize that our young master has been blocking the prince's light from the front, and the prince was so angry that he took away all the dishes he wanted to eat." Knowing why, he laughed out loud.
Lin Jinhua saw that it was getting late, and smiled slightly: "Shan Cha died by the second aunt's yard, we should go and see it too."
Yan'er, who was waiting at the door, turned pale when he heard this, and lowered his head, not daring to make a sound.
The second lady was also very surprised when she heard that Shan Cha had died in the morning. Lan Qiu didn't come back all night, which made her feel that something was wrong. She only ate two bites in the morning and lost her appetite. She sat in the flower hall and waited to go out to inquire about the news. people come back.
"Ma'am, Miss Seven is here." Another confidant, Mother Shen, came in from outside, brushed the snow off her shoulders, and then stepped forward to serve her.
The second lady's heart sank slightly when she heard that, Shan Cha said yesterday that she went out again in the middle of the night and brought Mama Yang with her, so she must have done something.
"Let her come in first. By the way, my natal sister-in-law may come today?" she asked.
Mother Shen asked the little girl to invite her, and she replied, "Mrs. Ye said that she will come in the morning, and I think she will arrive in a while."
The second lady nodded, and changed her mind slightly: "You make some arrangements, and then they will live near Luoxia Garden, so that they can get closer to Lin Jinhua."
After all, Lin Jinhua had already entered.
The second madam was holding tea to drink, but when she saw the person who opened the curtain and came in, he had slender hands, a slender figure, a face as cold and beautiful as if washed by snow, cherry lips and starry eyes, which made her startled.
After the daze, it was jealousy.Just like her mother, she is a natural vixen!
After Lin Jinhua finished her salute, she straightened her body and said with a gentle smile, "The matter of camellia..."
"Jinhua came here precisely for this reason. I never thought that she would come back to you in the middle of the night. I thought about it sincerely, but my foot slipped into the water in the middle of the night." Lin Jinhua smiled lightly. Her father didn't want her to treat them disrespectfully. She will definitely be respectful and respectful in the future: "It's just that the maids you sent, I'm afraid Jinhua will not dare to use them. They are sincerely for you, and I'm afraid they will not be able to serve you in Luoxia Garden."
"What are you talking about, since it is given to you, it is your girl." She gritted her teeth secretly.
Cai'er took the opportunity to say: "But Yan'er and the others all said that the contract of sale is in the hands of the madam, so they only listen to the madam."
The second lady saw that she was only here to sell the deed, and she didn't intend to make a big fuss with the camellia, but she was relieved, and said with a smile: "It's just the deed, I just said that I would send it to you today." After that, go straight Ask Shen's mother to fetch it.
Lin Jinhua looked at the small box in her hand, bent her eyes and smiled brightly: "Thank you, Second Aunt."
"Why are you polite..." The second lady waved her hand, but she asked again: "Hey, why don't you see Aunt Lan Qiu?"
The second lady didn't understand why Lan Qiu didn't come back all night. According to the plan, she was carrying a drug on her body. It shouldn't be difficult to kill Kang Ji and that pair of fools...
While hesitating, a young servant stumbled in and ran in, and the second master also followed behind with a cold expression.
The second lady felt strange, just as she got up to salute, the second master, who was always afraid of guilt, quickly stepped forward and raised his hand, and slapped her hard, causing her to fall to the ground before yelling: "Bitch!"
The second lady's carefully combed hair was all untied, and she was half-sitting on the ground, with both shame and doubt on her face.
Shen's mother hurriedly stepped forward to stop the second master: "Master, Miss Seven is still here, please speak slowly if you have anything to say."
These words reminded the second master, he looked back at Lin Jinhua who was still sitting on the side, frowned, and said, "You go back first."
Lin Jinhua got up and saluted, looking at the panicked appearance of the always strong second lady, said shallowly: "Second uncle, please speak slowly, second aunt has been worrying about the Lin family for so many years, and raised Zisu for you Sister, it's really hard."
The more she mentioned this, the more ashamed and angry the second master felt, but he couldn't tell his niece what to do, so he had to send her out with a muffled hum.
Lin Jinhua didn't force her to stay. When she left the yard, she could still hear the second master's suppressed roar and the sound of fists hitting her body. The second lady's painful cries matched with the frightened cries of the servants. For a moment, she thought it was wonderful , It's a pity that Lin Zisu can't watch from the side.
Mother Yang seemed to know what was going on, she walked up to Lin Jinhua and said, "Miss, I'm afraid this matter is going to make a big splash..."
"Naturally there will be trouble." If there is no trouble, how can the second wife be excluded.She is Lin Zisu's think tank, and most of the things in her previous life are behind her back.If she doesn't get rid of it, she will always be a threat.
Not long after returning to Luoxia Garden, before Cai'er came back to inquire about the news, Lin Xiyu rushed to look for her regardless of her injuries, and told all about the situation outside.
"You don't know, when the people from the government found Lan Qiu, she had blood holes all over her body, and it seemed that she was given by that man..." She said with joy, took a sip of tea before continuing to look at Lin Jinhua who was sitting beside her Said: "Then the Kang family really don't want their lives, they dare to kill like this."
Bai Lan felt faint for a while, but Lin Jinhua only asked indifferently, "Why did Lan Qiu go to Kang Mansion in the middle of the night?"
Lin Xiyu became more excited, and leaned closer to her: "I heard that the second aunt ordered her to kill people, because Kang Ji knew a shocking secret from the second aunt."
"Oh, is that so?" Lin Jinhua looked at her with a faint smile.
"Naturally, when you came, didn't you see that the second uncle was furious? Then what Kang Ji said might be true, and the fourth sister might really be the child of the second aunt's affair with someone back then." Lin Xiyu lowered her voice and said.
After finishing speaking, the maid next to her came in and whispered: "Miss, the second lady was taken away by the government."
Lin Jinhua smiled slightly, Kang Ji still gritted his teeth and did not confess himself, but once the second wife goes, she will definitely get her words out, and by then, none of them will be able to escape!
Just as he was thinking, Lin Jincheng had already gone to court.
Lin Luzhi heard about this on the way back, so he turned directly to the government office, but Lin Jincheng didn't care about the second room.
He changed his official uniform and wore a black robe and a plain cape embroidered with orchids. Lin Jinhua had Bai Lan embroider this for him a few years ago, and her embroidery skills at that time were not as good as Bai Lan's.
Just as Lin Jinhua was about to go up to meet him, Bai Lan hurriedly took a step forward and said anxiously: "There is such a heavy snowstorm outside, why don't you hold an umbrella, it would be great if you are freezing."
"Small matter, what can the big snowstorm do to me at the border?" Lin Jincheng smiled heartily, and walked directly towards Lin Jinhua, seeing her outfit today, his eyes lit up: "Jinhua is getting more and more beautiful, thank you People, otherwise, if you go out, you will be snatched away by someone."
Lin Jinhua kept Bai Lan's slightly blushing face under his eyes, and smiled at him: "My brother knows how to tease me."
Lin Jincheng rubbed her head gently, and said with a smile, "Okay, it's getting late, let's go out, what kind of rouge do you want to buy?"
Lin Jinzheng looked at her brother who was as clear as jade in such a hurry, and sighed slightly in her heart, and went out with him.
Lao Liu had been waiting at the entrance of the market for a long time, and when he saw the young lady who was serving porridge there, she turned and entered the inn beside her, and followed her quietly.
Zheng Ruyi entered the private room on the second floor, sent the servants away, and then looked at the distinguished man in Chinese clothes standing by the window, and said a little shyly, "Your Highness."
"You came."
Zhao Kan turned around and looked at the gentle and shy woman in front of him. Although the Zheng family was only a third-rank general, they were much easier to control. What's more, he found Lin Jincheng's eyes fixed on her yesterday.
Zhao Kan stepped forward, raised his hand and gently picked up the scattered hair around her ears, brushed her fingertips across her fair neck as if there was nothing, and smiled slightly: "I have wronged you, if I have other ways, I will definitely not Tell you to seduce another man."
Hearing this, Zheng Ruyi's heart was beating very fast. She raised her eyes to see the jade crown-like face in front of her. Her beautiful eyes were full of affection and reluctance. She smiled gently and sensiblely: "As long as you can help the Third Prince , Ruyi is willing to do anything.”
Seeing her flushed face, Zhao Kan slowly slid his hand to her chin, saw her flustered eyes and slightly red lips, and kissed her directly.
The two were too confident, and the door of the private room was not closed tightly. The sixth child stood at the foot of the stairs watching all this, frowning, and left in a hurry.
Because of the porridge, there were a lot of people coming and going in this area. Lin Jinyu's carriage couldn't move, so she had to get down and walk by herself.
The two were dressed gorgeously, and their looks were eye-catching, and soon attracted a lot of attention, even those who were serving porridge in front of the porridge shed also saw them.
Zheng Ruyi took a look, and quickly smiled at Lin Jinhua: "It's Miss Lin Qi, I haven't seen you for a long time."
Seeing her smile, Lin Jincheng was taken aback like a spring breeze.
Lin Jinhua shook her head when she saw her brother's appearance, and blamed him for not knowing how many women he had been in the military camp for so many years.
She took a step forward and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Miss Zheng. I heard that someone was giving out porridge here, so I wanted to come and see it. I never thought it was you."
Zheng Ruyi smiled, glanced at Lin Jincheng quietly, and said, "This is..."
"I'm here, Lin Jincheng." Lin Jincheng said hurriedly, looking a little flustered, in Zheng Ruyi's eyes, but it was just a fish that had already been caught in the net.
"Why don't you go to the inner room and talk, I just copied the Buddhist scriptures to be sent to the temple, so that I can pray for everyone, I don't know if the writing is good, please show me." Zheng Ruyi said a little shyly , with that appearance, it seemed that Lin Jincheng was also moved by Lin Jincheng.
Naturally, Lin Jincheng would not refuse, and was about to go in, when a handkerchief suddenly floated out of his sleeve.
He didn't think much, turned around to pick it up, but Bai Lan hurriedly picked it up for him: "My lord..."
Bai Lan's eyes were shining, Lin Jincheng didn't think much about accepting the veil, but Zheng Ruyi remembered it in his heart, took a deep look at Bai Lan who was full of admiration, and the corners of his mouth slightly curled up.
Lin Jinhua suddenly pointed to the handkerchief and said, "Hey, this handkerchief seems to belong to a woman, brother, where did you get into a romantic debt again?"
Lin Jincheng felt strange, opened the veil and took a look, and sure enough, he saw two delicate words 'Lan'er' embroidered on the bottom of the veil.
He frowned: "This handkerchief..."
"Could it be that some young lady slipped it into my brother's sleeve just now?" Lin Jinhua joked, "That's really good, I was worried about when my brother would find me a sister-in-law, and now there is a Miss Lan'er here. "
"Jinhua, don't talk nonsense..." Lin Jincheng was a little embarrassed, but he didn't want to blame his sister. He just hoped that Zheng Ruyi wouldn't misunderstand her.
Zheng Ruyi saw Lin Jinhua's dislike for her, so she just smiled slightly: "She is a very bold lady."
"Isn't that so." Lin Jinhua looked at her with a slight smile, wishing she could see through her at a glance, but she didn't do it too much, fearing that too much force would make her brother uncomfortable.
Zheng Ruyi became more and more embarrassed, she clutched her sleeves secretly, and looked at Lin Jincheng with a gentle smile: "Young master Lin, do you want to sit in the private room for a while?"
"nature……"
Before Lin Jincheng finished speaking, there was a commotion outside, and then a dozen or so yamen servants ran in.
Seeing the people from the government coming so quickly, Lin Jinhua knew that Kang Ji had already said everything, and the chill in her eyes deepened.
The leader stepped forward and bowed his hands to the two, saying: "Young General, Master Jing Zhaoyin would like to invite Miss Lin to the official residence, and I have something to ask."
Lin Jincheng naturally cared more about his younger sister now, he stepped forward to stop Lin Jinhua and said in a low voice, "What's the matter?"
The leader glanced at the elegant and stunning Lin Jinhua behind him, stared blankly, blushed hurriedly, lowered his head and said, "It's about last night's murder case, please excuse me, Miss Lin, I'll let Miss Lin go immediately after the inquiry. .”
Lin Jincheng looked back at Lin Jinhua in puzzlement, seeing that she also looked puzzled, and said, "I'll go with her."
"Please." The leader heaved a sigh of relief and turned to one side.
Lin Jinhua only followed closely beside Lin Jincheng, like a frightened little girl.
The officer looked at her leaving back, she was very delicate, if she said that she threatened Kang Ji, a big man, and devised such a vicious method, who would believe it?
Thinking like this, he quickly sent someone to the government.
Zheng Ruyi didn't expect things to turn out like this. Seeing that Lin Jincheng turned away without looking at her again, her face darkened a little, and she said to the maid next to her, "Go and find out who that Miss Lan'er is."
this compartment.
Lin Jinhua had just arrived at the county government office, and many people had already surrounded the hall.The second lady was also there, her hair was in a disheveled bun, but she stood upright with her neck stalked. She didn't cast a dark glance at her until she came.
Kang Ji knelt on the ground shivering, and shouted in a hoarse voice: "Master Zhang, she was the one who designed all this and forced me to kill that woman, and she also poisoned me so that I would not confess to her, otherwise I would be killed." Itching all over the body until it is bloody from scratching. Master Zhang, you have to learn from it!"
Lin Jinhua glanced at him. Apart from the two legs he had broken, there were scars on his body. It seemed that Mr. Zhang had already been punished.
The second lady also took the opportunity to say: "Jinhua, my aunt has treated you well for so many years. Why did you frame me like this? Zisu is also a member of the Lin family. You just can't tolerate her so much and drove her out of the Lin family. If the government doesn't say, you will be satisfied if you kill us and your uncle! I didn't believe that you were possessed by evil spirits, but now it seems that it is true."
She wept softly, as if every word contained unbearable and painful feelings.
People in Dajin have always believed in ghosts and gods, and now they are starting to talk about it.
Lin Jinhua watched his father sitting beside him frown, and the second master also seemed to believe her words, looked at himself with hatred, pretended to be scared and hid behind Lin Jincheng, and said timidly: "Brother, I'm afraid. "
Lin Jincheng didn't believe that his weak sister could do these things, so he comforted him before pointing to Kang Ji and said, "Jinhua is not yet sixteen this year, and she is a weak woman who threatens you, who will believe it?"
Kang Ji opened his mouth and said, "She brought someone with her."
"Ridiculous." Lin Jincheng snorted coldly, looking at the second wife: "Miss's backyard will be locked after dark. If Jinhua still takes people out, wouldn't the housekeeper's second aunt know?"
The second lady frowned: "There is a deserted courtyard in the mansion, which can directly lead to the back alley of the mansion."
Lin Jinhua took the opportunity to ask, "What yard?"
"You—!" Seeing that she couldn't bear it, the second lady gritted her teeth: "Shan Cha saw the inside you went in with her own eyes, can you still deny it?"
Sitting at the top, Mr. Zhang looked at the ferocious second lady and the timid Lin Jinhua, frowned, patted the gavel, and said, "Then where is this camellia?"
"She's..." The second lady's throat seemed to be choked, Shan Cha died last night, and she died in the lake next to her yard.
"Shancha was originally a maid sent to my yard by my second aunt, but she drowned in the small lake next to my second aunt's yard in the middle of the night last night." Lin Jinhua bit her lips slightly.
As soon as these words came out, the people outside were not fools.Isn't this obviously killing people to silence her, and she died outside the Second Madam's courtyard. Except for herself, who would have the guts to kill people right under her nose?
Seeing the second lady choking, Lin Jinhua felt sarcasm in her heart, and only looked at the rebellious Kang Ji, and said: "Master Kang said that I poisoned, but I never poisoned, and the manor never bought any poison. If you don't believe me, you can go to the pharmacy to check the purchase records."
Mr. Zhang thought it made sense, so he nodded and asked someone to investigate immediately.
Lin Jinhua stepped forward and squeezed his wrist to feel his pulse, before saying, "Except for the excessive blood loss, Master Kang is not poisoned..." she said.
Kang Ji was also dumbfounded: "How is it possible, you clearly took the pill for me last night..." He paused, and immediately reacted, gnashing his teeth and rushing towards her: "Lin Jinhua, you lied to me, I killed you!" you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Jincheng stepped forward and kicked the person away, and looked at the second lady coldly. He said that whoever dares to hurt her, he will crush their bones!
(End of this chapter)
Zhao Huaiyan had dinner, sat on the table and drank tea slowly, he had no intention of leaving at all, Lin Jincheng and his son could only accompany him.
Lin Jinhua was still thinking about what happened tonight, looked at Zhao Huaiyan who was above her, and said, "His Royal Highness Ning, the courtiers are exhausted, can you go back to your room to rest first?"
Lin Luzhi also took the opportunity to say: "My lord, why don't you go to Weichen's study to talk." He didn't like this son-in-law very much in his heart. It was rumored that he was indifferent and indifferent. How could his weak daughter marry him in the future? Don't you want to be bullied?
Zhao Huaiyan knew what the world thought of him, so he wasn't in a hurry, he responded immediately: "General Lin, please lead the way."
The word 'please' he used was respectful without losing his status.
Lin Jincheng noticed something strange, this King Ning looked at him, he didn't look like an outsider.
When Zhao Huaiyan passed in front of Lin Jinhua, he paused and said, "You have very little dinner, isn't it to your liking?"
Lin Jinhua didn't expect him to notice this, it's just that she never eats much: "My daughter never eats much."
Zhao Huaiyan glanced at her quickly with downcast eyes, her jade-like face under the candlelight was slightly thinner, but she was still in good spirits, but she always felt that she was too thin.
He glanced at it, then quickly withdrew his gaze and walked out with Lin Luzhi. It's not good for people to think that he is just a lecherous and frivolous person, so he walked away directly.
After he left, Lin Jinhua let out a long sigh of relief, but Lin Jincheng was a step behind and looked at her with a gentle smile: "Prince Ning seems to be different from the rumors."
Lin Jinhua pretended not to understand, and hastily sent the person away before he locked the courtyard door and went back to the room.
Yang's mother had been waiting inside early in the morning, and when she saw her coming, she rushed forward to meet her and said worriedly: "Miss, do you really want to go there by yourself?"
"After thinking about it, I always have to look at it myself to be at ease." She nodded, lightly changed into a black cloak, tied the veil, and turned around to search in the flower garden in the yard, picked a few herbs and crushed them In the veil, he left the mansion with Yang's mother.
Because Zhao Huaiyan stayed here for a long time at night, it was almost three o'clock when they went out, and the road had become empty, only a lantern on the side of the road was glowing with dim light.
At this time, Lan Qiu carefully pulled the things in his sleeves, looked at the humble mansion in front of Kang Ji, hesitated for a long time, and finally stepped forward and gently knocked on the door.
"Which one?" Someone inside asked impatiently, yawning.
Lan Qiu seemed to be choking on something and refused to speak, but she still remembered the second lady's order, and said in a low voice: "Go and tell Master Kang and Young Master Kang, just say that we have an appointment today, and I will come to see him."
The boy remembered Kang Ji's instructions during the day, so he got up and opened the door, and seeing that it was really a woman, he smiled ambiguously, with a bit of contempt in his eyes, and said, "Come in, sir. Wait in the backyard."
Lan Qiu gritted her teeth, clenched the things in her hand and followed her step by step.
Kang Ji had prepared a room early, and all the servants sent them away. When they saw Lan Qiu coming, he looked a little contemptuous, but put down the things he was playing with, stood up and stared at her for a long time, and then sneered, "It's not too old. , take off your clothes."
Lan Qiu's face was blue and purple, she had never experienced such a thing before, she just felt chills all over her body, she stood tensely for a long time without moving, but Kang Ji was already impatient, he slapped her hard with a slap She fell to the ground, and then rushed forward, a pair of big hands quickly tore open her clothes: "It's already here, why are you pretending to be a chaste woman?" He looked at her exposed white and delicate neck, and stepped forward. She was about to chew on it, but she caught a glimpse of the dagger hidden in her sleeve.
Looking at the dagger, Kang Ji suddenly understood, but he just snorted coldly: "Stinky bastard, you still want to kill me. If you dare to kill me, I will let everyone in the capital know about Ye's nasty things tomorrow!" After all, he pressed her wrist and began to enter roughly, ignoring her feelings at all.
Lan Qiu's face turned pale from the pain, but it wasn't over yet. After Kang Ji was done, he had his son Kang Yao called over.
Kang Yao was less timid, but he still remembered that day when Lan Qiu pointed at them contemptuously, looked at the woman whose skin was exposed on the ground, and rubbed his hands together: "Father, it really made me..."
"Hurry up, and when it's done, buy her to go to the Goulan Courtyard. Since she doesn't want to serve only one man, let her serve a group of men!" Kang Ji spat on the ground, turned his head and had the door closed and left.
As soon as the person left, Kang Yao rushed forward impatiently, but he didn't realize that Lan Qiu had already quietly reached the dagger.
When Kang Yao hugged her to die, he gritted his teeth and stabbed the dagger into his back fiercely.
Kang Yao cried out in pain, but Lan Qiu was not completely unprepared, and there was a drug hidden in her hollow hairpin.
She took out the drug and sprinkled it all on his face while he was wailing. Kang Ji's screams stopped abruptly, and his fat body fell directly on top of her.
Lan Qiu pushed the person away, glanced at the room with red eyes, looked at the burning oil lamp on the side, stepped forward and pushed down the oil lamp, pulled down the curtain on the side and lit it, and slowly saw the fire in the room, and then went out of the room After locking the door, he quickly ran to the entrance of the courtyard and waited for Kang Ji to return.
This Kang's mansion is not Kang Shilang's mansion, there are not many people in the mansion.
Before Kang Ji had gone far, when he saw the fire, he wanted to go back to save his son without thinking, but just after entering the yard, Lan Qiu behind him stabbed at him like crazy, but because Kang Ji was a grown man after all , Dodging left and right, although he was stabbed several times, none of them were fatal.
Kang Ji looked at her who seemed to be insane, and gritted his teeth with hatred: "It turns out that the second lady told you to come and kill me!"
Now Lan Qiu only wants to kill him, if he does not die, the second wife will not let her go.
"It has nothing to do with the second lady!" She said in a low voice, holding a sharp dagger and rushing towards her.Seeing this, Kang Ji rushed out without caring about his son.
It is very close to the back door of the courtyard, but far away from the servant's room where the servants live. As he ran, he thought of the words in the letter before, if something happened, he would go to the back alley and wait. He didn't have time to react, so he just pulled Open the back corner door and flee into the back alley.
Lan Qiu hurriedly chased her out, wondering why the second lady's person hadn't come yet, but after chasing out of the back alley, she found a person she had never dreamed of standing at the back alley: "Miss Seven? will be here?"
"Of course I'm waiting for you." Lin Jinhua lifted her veil and smiled lightly.
Lan Qiu's face was immediately filled with murderous intent: "You designed all of this, and you are the one who wanted to kill the second lady!"
Lin Jinhua looked at her roughly wrapped in torn clothes and bruises all over her body, and raised her eyebrows slightly: "If I don't design her, she will come to harm me. I have no other choice."
Seeing her slowly approaching her, Lan Qiu put the hand holding the dagger slightly behind her back, waited slowly but said with a cold smile: "Miss Seven is really smart, but no matter how smart she is, she seems to have forgotten that you are just one It's just a weak woman..." After finishing speaking, seeing the person who had come up to her, she raised the dagger in her hand and stabbed at her heart.
Mother Yang who was following behind was startled and hurried to stop her, but Lin Jinhua threw the handkerchief stained with belladonna vine juice before she went out and threw it on Lan Qiu's face.
Lan Qiu saw that the dagger in his hand was about to pierce her neck, but he didn't dodge the veil, but his body, which was still full of strength just now, suddenly went limp, and he collapsed uncontrollably on the ground, the dagger in his hand Can't hold it and fall aside.
Seeing this, Mama Yang finally let out a long sigh of relief: "Miss, you scared the slaves to death." She looked at the calm Lin Jinhua at the side, thinking that before she left the house, she had found belladonna vines and kneaded them in the handkerchief. It turned out that she had expected this danger a long time ago. This young lady is really not an ordinary person...
Before she regained her senses, Kang Ji, who had narrowly escaped a catastrophe, suddenly rushed forward, picked up the dagger on the ground, and began to stab Lan Qiu fiercely, cursing as he stabbed: "Bitch, how dare you?" Kill me, I want your corpse to be shredded into thousands of pieces..."
Lan Qiu stared and grunted, but only spit out a mouth full of blood.
Mother Yang didn't expect Kang Ji to be so ruthless all of a sudden, she hurriedly pulled Lin Jinhua to leave, but Lin Jinhua scolded him coldly: "Stop, what are you doing!"
"Do you still want to let her go?" Kang Ji suddenly turned his head and smiled coldly: "So you gave me that letter, Miss Lin Jiaqi, if it wasn't for you, my son would not have died today!"
Lin Jinzheng's bright eyes were cold: "I only let you ask for money. Who would have thought that you would be so greedy and vicious that the second lady had to come and kill people to silence her." She knew that Kang Ji was unreliable, but she was also glad that she came here today.
Kang Ji looked back at Lan Qiu, who was covered in blood holes, and slowly got up with a dagger, and looked at her with a sneer: "Miss Seven, now I not only know the secret of the second lady, but also your secret, today you killed me!" After killing my son, what do you say you have to give me so that I can let you go?" He stared at Lin Jinhua's delicate face, his eyes became more and more cold: "If you come to accompany me for a night, let me try it too The taste of Princess Ning in the future..."
Before he finished speaking, Yang's mother quietly picked up a thick stick by the side of the road, and hit him hard on the back of the head.
Kang Ji caught a glimpse of Yang's mother's movement from the corner of his eye, and narrowly dodged, but was hit in the back, bared his teeth in pain, turned his head and kicked Yang's mother away: "Old woman, you are looking for death!" The energy hadn't faded yet, she raised the dagger in her hand and was about to stab him down, Mama Yang almost grabbed his stabbing hand, trembling all over but she didn't have the strength to push him away.
"Miss, find someone quickly." Mother Yang desperately asked for help, but she wasn't sure if Lin Jinhua would find someone to save her.
Seeing this scene, Lin Jinhua gritted her silver teeth slightly. Seeing the wooden stick that Mama Yang had dropped just now, she stepped forward to pick it up and hit him hard on the knee.
He was caught by Yang's mother and hit with the stick again. He heard the sound of bones breaking on the spot, and shouted in horror: "Lin Jinhua, you broke my leg! How can you be so vicious at such a young age!" He saw that Mama Yang had stood up, struggling to crawl back into the mansion.At this moment, because of the fire, the people in the Kang Manor had already woken up. As long as he went in, Lin Jinhua, including the second wife, would surely die tomorrow!
He struggled to crawl forward, but Lin Jinhua, who was familiar with the first time and the second time, stepped forward with a stick, and beat him hard on the other leg.
Mother Yang, who was still in shock, hurried forward and covered Kang Ji's mouth tightly to prevent him from yelling.
Kang Ji felt as if his legs had been broken alive, excruciating pain, because his mouth was covered, he could only whimper, and the dagger in his hand fell to the ground.
Mother Yang was trembling all over, and she looked at Lin Jinhua nervously: "Miss, do you want... to kill him?" She swallowed, but Kang Ji hurriedly shook his head and looked at Lin Jinhua beggingly.
Lin Jinhua had calmed down, she looked at Kang Ji indifferently, and motioned for Mother Yang to let go.
Mother Yang hesitated, but seeing her young lady's calm look, she let go of her hand slowly, but pressed Kang Ji to the ground to prevent him from moving.
Kang Ji was let go, took a big breath, and then hurriedly said: "Miss Seven, I have no grievances or enmities with you, let's pretend that this incident never happened, please let me go, I promise not to take your business seriously." Speak out."
No injustice?
Lin Jinhua sneered coldly in her heart. In this life, there was indeed no time to make enemies. In the last life, this Kang Ji used his father everywhere, and his father, who had always been a victim of blood-sucking bugs, was imprisoned several times.
"I can give you a way to survive." Lin Jinhua stepped forward and looked at him indifferently: "But from now on, you have to do everything I tell you."
"Yes, I'm all up to you." Kang Ji rolled his eyes, holding back the hatred that wanted to pounce on her and strangle her to death.
He wondered why Lin Jinhua couldn't see through it, but she just took out a thumbnail-sized pill from her sleeve and stuffed it into his mouth, pinching his throat for him to swallow, and then said: "This medicine will last three days. It will attack, if there is no antidote, you will itch all over your body, and you will die slowly until you say that all your flesh and blood are scratched. After a while, people from the government will come over, and I want you to admit collusion with the second lady, And point out that the second lady sent someone to kill you, but if you say a word wrong, you will die slowly as I said until you scratch all the intact skin in your body."
Mother Yang felt itchy all over her skin when she heard it. Kang Ji felt sick to his stomach, but he didn't dare to refute. Looking at her cruel eyes, she felt that she was not Miss Lin at all, but The demons from hell are here to take human lives.
He was secretly vicious, and nodded.
The corners of Lin Jinhua's mouth were raised high. Hearing the noise not far away, Mama Yang let him go, threw the stick on him, and turned to leave the alley.
Kang Ji watched her back leave, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to grab the throat, but he vomited for a while, and the bile was about to come out, but he still didn't spit out the pill.
Just when he was about to go back to the mansion to ask for a doctor, suddenly there was a commotion of vehicles and horses, and a group of officers and soldiers with torches just arrived, and they saw him and the dead Lan Qiu clearly.
From a distance, Yang's mother looked at the fire in Kang's mansion, and was very worried: "Miss, in case that Kang Ji turns his back on you, how can I tell you all about you?"
"If that's the case, then it's just what I want." Lin Jinzheng's eyes darkened, her originally delicate face was full of coldness and ruthlessness, seeing that Mama Yang was trembling all over, but she was also glad that she didn't choose to go against Miss Seven.
After quietly returning to the Lin Mansion, it was already approaching the fourth watch. Fortunately, winter nights are always long, and there were servants who got up early to clean up, but they didn't find her walking quietly in black.
She opened the courtyard door and was about to go back to the room, when the bushes on one side suddenly rustled.
Mother Yang was busy going to check, but was stopped by Lin Jinhua.
She turned towards that place lightly and said: "If anyone offends me, he will be punished. You should remember this carefully." After finishing speaking, An Jing stepped back.It is not difficult to guess who is hiding there. The closest room here belongs to Shan Cha and Yan Er.Yan'er is timid and acts cautiously, but Shan Cha knows that she often goes out to meet people through the corner door, so it must be her here.Going to arrest him now would alarm the people in the yard, so it would be better to let her.
Camellia hid in the bushes, and didn't dare to breathe heavily. Seeing her leave peacefully in black, her heart jumped in her throat and finally fell back, but when she thought of being hit by her on the board that day, she became very angry. Ping, seeing that she had gone back to the room and closed the door, then found a low wall and quietly turned over.
Mother Yang carefully opened the crack of the door and stared there, seeing that it was really her who came out of the bushes, so she turned and went back to Lin Jinhua.
Lin Jinhua sat in the flower hall, lit a candle, took off her cloak and held some hot tea before exhaling slowly.
"It's getting colder outside." Lin Jinhua looked at the glowing red charcoal fire basin and said, "If she freezes to death outside, it has nothing to do with me."
Mama Yang was startled, then saw her continue: "Passing by there is a small lake near the second aunt's yard, and there is a rockery by the lake where people can hide. What does mom think?"
Mother Yang understood, but her face paled a little: "I'll do it now, slave." She knew that seeing Lin Jinhua doing it herself today, she would not be at ease if she didn't hold the handle in her hands.
Lin Jinhua looked at her leaving back, put down the teacup, and stared at the charcoal fire basin for a while, sometimes she even wondered what Abi Hell was like, and whether it was as hot as this coal fire, but she was not afraid, even In the future, she will never let these people go in hell!
She sat for a while, until the sky was bright, and then returned to the room to lie down, but she just lifted the quilt, and suddenly found a man sleeping in his shirt on the bed.
She took half a step back, but her cold hand was caught by a big warm hand, and she fell into his masculine arms full of masculinity, and accidentally bumped into his hard chest. She frowned.
"Do you still know the pain?"
Asked coldly, with a bit of anger.
Lin Jinhua was also a little depressed at first, but when she heard this, her mood dropped instantly, and she said indifferently: "The prince doesn't return to the palace in the middle of the night, what are you doing here with the courtiers?"
Zhao Huaiyan looked at her dark eyes with anger, followed her eyes to look at her slender body, and said with thin lips, "It's late at night, it's not safe to walk at night, my king will take a nap here."
shameless!
Lin Jinhua scolded in her heart, but she only said on the face: "Father will definitely arrange a high-quality wing for the prince..."
"It's too cold to sleep alone."
Lin Jinhua: "..."
She didn't want to argue with him here, she just wanted to get up and rest, but the person on her body was hugged so tightly that she couldn't move at all.
"Don't move, sleep for a while." Zhao Huaiyan sighed slightly as she watched her frowning and about to leave.
Lin Jinhua faintly heard his sigh, but she was not sure, and said coldly: "My lord, I haven't passed the door yet, you are so frivolous, do you regard me as a woman in a brothel?"
After Lin Jinhua finished speaking, she thought that he would definitely let go of herself, but unexpectedly he lifted the quilt and wrapped her in, wrapped her tightly with the quilt, but got up by herself.
He put on his coat calmly, and said: "Although you have a thorough plan for tonight's matter, have you ever considered what the consequences will be if you are exposed?"
Lin Jinhua frowned slightly, did he see everything about him?
"When you left the house, Lin Jincheng followed you. He is very good at martial arts." He paused, seeing her frowning in a daze, but he was not willing to say anything else: "It's cold at night, next time you go out, wear more clothes .” After that, he walked away.
Lin Jinhua looked at the back of him leaving, a little hesitant.He said that brother is good at kung fu, could it be that he has fought against him?Was he ever injured?The last time I met him as an assassin in Dingnanhou Mansion, he was poisoned, what about this time?My brother's kung fu is no worse than Dingnanhou's...
As she thought about it, the strings in her mind suddenly tightened. What is she doing now, is she worried about him?
She didn't dare to think about it any further, she turned sideways and closed her eyes to force herself to sleep quickly, but she felt that there was something stuck under the pillow, she got up and opened it, it was a red wet veil.
She looked at the veil, and patted the pillow angrily. Could it be that he was really hurt, why didn't he say anything just now!
Just as he was thinking, there was suddenly the sound of chaotic footsteps outside, and then he heard Lin Jincheng talking to Bai Lan in a lowered voice.
"But what strange person has been here?"
Bai Lan rubbed her sleepy eyes and shook her head: "I didn't see or hear anything. My lord, something happened in the mansion, do you want to wake up Miss?"
Lin Jincheng paused, and then said: "There is an assassin in the mansion. He was injured when he fought with me. He may be hiding in the Lin mansion." He was worried about Lin Jinhua, and gently opened the door, walked to the side of the Nuan Pavilion and opened the curtain. Looking inside, he saw that Lin Jinhua had already fallen asleep wrapped in a quilt, so he came out quietly again: "Since she is asleep, there is no need to wake her up, so I can keep an eye on you."
Bai Lan nodded, seeing that the sky was getting brighter, she didn't go back to sleep, and went to the small kitchen to boil the hot water that Lin Jinhua would use in the morning.
When the movement outside completely disappeared, Lin Jinhua hurriedly got up, put on her outer shirt, and went out quietly.With his elder brother's martial arts skills and his father, if Zhao Huaiyan was really injured and caught again, it would be a disaster.
She trotted all the way, thinking that Zhao Huaiyan should have gone out of the courtyard to the front yard, so she opened the courtyard door to go out to look for it.But I didn't expect that just two steps out of the yard, I bumped into a familiar embrace, familiar fragrance, familiar pain.
Looking at the person wrinkling his nose in pain, Zhao Huaiyan's heart, which had been sinking just now, immediately jumped up lively.
"My lord, you didn't leave..." Lin Jinhua took half a step back and rubbed her nose. Before she could check whether he was injured, she found that there was a little smugness in his phoenix eyes.
Lin Jinhua was dumbfounded, this guy probably didn't intend to leave at all.
Zhao Huaiyan's thin lips curled up slightly, regardless of Lin Jinhua's willingness or not, she raised her hand and hugged him horizontally: "It's not safe to walk at night."
Lin Jinhua was dumbfounded, the sky would be bright in two moments.
Then, thinking of the wet handkerchief, he hurriedly said, "Then your injury..."
"Not hurt."
"That blood..."
"It's Zhu Mo, it was dyed by a painter, and I hid it under your pillow before I could put it away." Zhao Huaiyan walked forward slowly with the man in his arms, wishing he could just walk like this for the rest of his life.The person in his arms was very light, delicate and weak resisting his embrace, and all the worries just now subsided, but he knew that in this life, he was no longer wishful thinking.
Lin Jinhua looked at him coldly, and knew that the veil was probably used by him to deceive herself!
Back in the room, Lin Jinhua simply didn't bother to struggle anymore and let him fall asleep with his arms around her.
One night passed, not too long, but Zhao Huaiyan tried his best all his life.
Zhao Huaiyan looked at her fragile skin, her long eyelashes drooping like feathers, her breathing evenly, but the center of her brows was always twisted, and she would appear uncomfortable from time to time, talking painful dreams, Zhao Huaiyan knew that she must be dreaming again. It's in the previous life, and I knew it when I quietly came to give her medicine last time.
He held her carefully in his arms and patted her on the back lightly.When his mother and concubine were still around, he coaxed him like this. Now that there is another woman in his life, he will do everything in his power to protect her.
Lin Jinhua could feel his warmth, and the painful and struggling dream seemed to slowly dissipate.
When the light began to shine through the window, she woke up peacefully, for the first time.
The side is empty, I don't know when he left.There seemed to be his temperature and aroma in the quilt.Lin Jinhua was a little puzzled, what kind of man is Zhao Huaiyan?It is said that he is taciturn, withdrawn and indifferent, but what I see now is a completely opposite person.Moreover, in his previous life, he neither fought for the throne nor left, but the empress could not have allowed him to do so. With his ability, it was very easy to take over Zhao Kan, but he didn't make a move. So why did he stay in the capital?
Just as she was thinking, Cai'er came in from outside and interrupted her thoughts.
"Miss, Shan Cha is dead." Cai'er said while rolling up the curtain for her.
"Yeah." Lin Jinhua replied lightly, and sat up from the bed: "Where's Mama Yang?"
"The servant is here." Mother Yang came in from behind, and when she heard Cai'er's words, her hand holding the hot book basin tightened slightly.
Cai'er didn't notice anything strange, she just smiled and said, "Why don't you all wonder how Shan Cha died?"
"How did you die?" With a slight smile on the corner of Lin Jinyu's mouth, she stood up and went to the wardrobe. After looking around, she didn't choose plain white clothes, but chose a rouge-colored long skirt, which matched with a brocade-edged skirt. The cloak, and a simple bun, with two pearl flowers on the hairpin, and a little powder and daisy, you can see the cherry lips of the person in the mirror. Ladylike elegance and beauty.
Cai'er also couldn't care about Shan Cha's affairs anymore, she could only close her mouth from ear to ear in surprise: "It's been a long time since Miss cleans up, but when I dress up today, she looks much better than Fourth Miss."
Lin Jinzheng looked at the person in the mirror indifferently, the corners of her mouth curled up coolly, she wanted to accompany her brother to see Zheng Ruyi today, so what could she do without dressing up.
When they had breakfast together in the morning, Zhao Huaiyan still didn't leave, and he didn't have the slightest awareness of the guests. After dinner, he went to the morning court with Lin Luzhi and his son.
"Have you seen, the lord's eyes never leave Miss." Cai'er whispered after they left.
Bai Lan covered her lips and smiled straight: "Who didn't realize that our young master has been blocking the prince's light from the front, and the prince was so angry that he took away all the dishes he wanted to eat." Knowing why, he laughed out loud.
Lin Jinhua saw that it was getting late, and smiled slightly: "Shan Cha died by the second aunt's yard, we should go and see it too."
Yan'er, who was waiting at the door, turned pale when he heard this, and lowered his head, not daring to make a sound.
The second lady was also very surprised when she heard that Shan Cha had died in the morning. Lan Qiu didn't come back all night, which made her feel that something was wrong. She only ate two bites in the morning and lost her appetite. She sat in the flower hall and waited to go out to inquire about the news. people come back.
"Ma'am, Miss Seven is here." Another confidant, Mother Shen, came in from outside, brushed the snow off her shoulders, and then stepped forward to serve her.
The second lady's heart sank slightly when she heard that, Shan Cha said yesterday that she went out again in the middle of the night and brought Mama Yang with her, so she must have done something.
"Let her come in first. By the way, my natal sister-in-law may come today?" she asked.
Mother Shen asked the little girl to invite her, and she replied, "Mrs. Ye said that she will come in the morning, and I think she will arrive in a while."
The second lady nodded, and changed her mind slightly: "You make some arrangements, and then they will live near Luoxia Garden, so that they can get closer to Lin Jinhua."
After all, Lin Jinhua had already entered.
The second madam was holding tea to drink, but when she saw the person who opened the curtain and came in, he had slender hands, a slender figure, a face as cold and beautiful as if washed by snow, cherry lips and starry eyes, which made her startled.
After the daze, it was jealousy.Just like her mother, she is a natural vixen!
After Lin Jinhua finished her salute, she straightened her body and said with a gentle smile, "The matter of camellia..."
"Jinhua came here precisely for this reason. I never thought that she would come back to you in the middle of the night. I thought about it sincerely, but my foot slipped into the water in the middle of the night." Lin Jinhua smiled lightly. Her father didn't want her to treat them disrespectfully. She will definitely be respectful and respectful in the future: "It's just that the maids you sent, I'm afraid Jinhua will not dare to use them. They are sincerely for you, and I'm afraid they will not be able to serve you in Luoxia Garden."
"What are you talking about, since it is given to you, it is your girl." She gritted her teeth secretly.
Cai'er took the opportunity to say: "But Yan'er and the others all said that the contract of sale is in the hands of the madam, so they only listen to the madam."
The second lady saw that she was only here to sell the deed, and she didn't intend to make a big fuss with the camellia, but she was relieved, and said with a smile: "It's just the deed, I just said that I would send it to you today." After that, go straight Ask Shen's mother to fetch it.
Lin Jinhua looked at the small box in her hand, bent her eyes and smiled brightly: "Thank you, Second Aunt."
"Why are you polite..." The second lady waved her hand, but she asked again: "Hey, why don't you see Aunt Lan Qiu?"
The second lady didn't understand why Lan Qiu didn't come back all night. According to the plan, she was carrying a drug on her body. It shouldn't be difficult to kill Kang Ji and that pair of fools...
While hesitating, a young servant stumbled in and ran in, and the second master also followed behind with a cold expression.
The second lady felt strange, just as she got up to salute, the second master, who was always afraid of guilt, quickly stepped forward and raised his hand, and slapped her hard, causing her to fall to the ground before yelling: "Bitch!"
The second lady's carefully combed hair was all untied, and she was half-sitting on the ground, with both shame and doubt on her face.
Shen's mother hurriedly stepped forward to stop the second master: "Master, Miss Seven is still here, please speak slowly if you have anything to say."
These words reminded the second master, he looked back at Lin Jinhua who was still sitting on the side, frowned, and said, "You go back first."
Lin Jinhua got up and saluted, looking at the panicked appearance of the always strong second lady, said shallowly: "Second uncle, please speak slowly, second aunt has been worrying about the Lin family for so many years, and raised Zisu for you Sister, it's really hard."
The more she mentioned this, the more ashamed and angry the second master felt, but he couldn't tell his niece what to do, so he had to send her out with a muffled hum.
Lin Jinhua didn't force her to stay. When she left the yard, she could still hear the second master's suppressed roar and the sound of fists hitting her body. The second lady's painful cries matched with the frightened cries of the servants. For a moment, she thought it was wonderful , It's a pity that Lin Zisu can't watch from the side.
Mother Yang seemed to know what was going on, she walked up to Lin Jinhua and said, "Miss, I'm afraid this matter is going to make a big splash..."
"Naturally there will be trouble." If there is no trouble, how can the second wife be excluded.She is Lin Zisu's think tank, and most of the things in her previous life are behind her back.If she doesn't get rid of it, she will always be a threat.
Not long after returning to Luoxia Garden, before Cai'er came back to inquire about the news, Lin Xiyu rushed to look for her regardless of her injuries, and told all about the situation outside.
"You don't know, when the people from the government found Lan Qiu, she had blood holes all over her body, and it seemed that she was given by that man..." She said with joy, took a sip of tea before continuing to look at Lin Jinhua who was sitting beside her Said: "Then the Kang family really don't want their lives, they dare to kill like this."
Bai Lan felt faint for a while, but Lin Jinhua only asked indifferently, "Why did Lan Qiu go to Kang Mansion in the middle of the night?"
Lin Xiyu became more excited, and leaned closer to her: "I heard that the second aunt ordered her to kill people, because Kang Ji knew a shocking secret from the second aunt."
"Oh, is that so?" Lin Jinhua looked at her with a faint smile.
"Naturally, when you came, didn't you see that the second uncle was furious? Then what Kang Ji said might be true, and the fourth sister might really be the child of the second aunt's affair with someone back then." Lin Xiyu lowered her voice and said.
After finishing speaking, the maid next to her came in and whispered: "Miss, the second lady was taken away by the government."
Lin Jinhua smiled slightly, Kang Ji still gritted his teeth and did not confess himself, but once the second wife goes, she will definitely get her words out, and by then, none of them will be able to escape!
Just as he was thinking, Lin Jincheng had already gone to court.
Lin Luzhi heard about this on the way back, so he turned directly to the government office, but Lin Jincheng didn't care about the second room.
He changed his official uniform and wore a black robe and a plain cape embroidered with orchids. Lin Jinhua had Bai Lan embroider this for him a few years ago, and her embroidery skills at that time were not as good as Bai Lan's.
Just as Lin Jinhua was about to go up to meet him, Bai Lan hurriedly took a step forward and said anxiously: "There is such a heavy snowstorm outside, why don't you hold an umbrella, it would be great if you are freezing."
"Small matter, what can the big snowstorm do to me at the border?" Lin Jincheng smiled heartily, and walked directly towards Lin Jinhua, seeing her outfit today, his eyes lit up: "Jinhua is getting more and more beautiful, thank you People, otherwise, if you go out, you will be snatched away by someone."
Lin Jinhua kept Bai Lan's slightly blushing face under his eyes, and smiled at him: "My brother knows how to tease me."
Lin Jincheng rubbed her head gently, and said with a smile, "Okay, it's getting late, let's go out, what kind of rouge do you want to buy?"
Lin Jinzheng looked at her brother who was as clear as jade in such a hurry, and sighed slightly in her heart, and went out with him.
Lao Liu had been waiting at the entrance of the market for a long time, and when he saw the young lady who was serving porridge there, she turned and entered the inn beside her, and followed her quietly.
Zheng Ruyi entered the private room on the second floor, sent the servants away, and then looked at the distinguished man in Chinese clothes standing by the window, and said a little shyly, "Your Highness."
"You came."
Zhao Kan turned around and looked at the gentle and shy woman in front of him. Although the Zheng family was only a third-rank general, they were much easier to control. What's more, he found Lin Jincheng's eyes fixed on her yesterday.
Zhao Kan stepped forward, raised his hand and gently picked up the scattered hair around her ears, brushed her fingertips across her fair neck as if there was nothing, and smiled slightly: "I have wronged you, if I have other ways, I will definitely not Tell you to seduce another man."
Hearing this, Zheng Ruyi's heart was beating very fast. She raised her eyes to see the jade crown-like face in front of her. Her beautiful eyes were full of affection and reluctance. She smiled gently and sensiblely: "As long as you can help the Third Prince , Ruyi is willing to do anything.”
Seeing her flushed face, Zhao Kan slowly slid his hand to her chin, saw her flustered eyes and slightly red lips, and kissed her directly.
The two were too confident, and the door of the private room was not closed tightly. The sixth child stood at the foot of the stairs watching all this, frowning, and left in a hurry.
Because of the porridge, there were a lot of people coming and going in this area. Lin Jinyu's carriage couldn't move, so she had to get down and walk by herself.
The two were dressed gorgeously, and their looks were eye-catching, and soon attracted a lot of attention, even those who were serving porridge in front of the porridge shed also saw them.
Zheng Ruyi took a look, and quickly smiled at Lin Jinhua: "It's Miss Lin Qi, I haven't seen you for a long time."
Seeing her smile, Lin Jincheng was taken aback like a spring breeze.
Lin Jinhua shook her head when she saw her brother's appearance, and blamed him for not knowing how many women he had been in the military camp for so many years.
She took a step forward and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Miss Zheng. I heard that someone was giving out porridge here, so I wanted to come and see it. I never thought it was you."
Zheng Ruyi smiled, glanced at Lin Jincheng quietly, and said, "This is..."
"I'm here, Lin Jincheng." Lin Jincheng said hurriedly, looking a little flustered, in Zheng Ruyi's eyes, but it was just a fish that had already been caught in the net.
"Why don't you go to the inner room and talk, I just copied the Buddhist scriptures to be sent to the temple, so that I can pray for everyone, I don't know if the writing is good, please show me." Zheng Ruyi said a little shyly , with that appearance, it seemed that Lin Jincheng was also moved by Lin Jincheng.
Naturally, Lin Jincheng would not refuse, and was about to go in, when a handkerchief suddenly floated out of his sleeve.
He didn't think much, turned around to pick it up, but Bai Lan hurriedly picked it up for him: "My lord..."
Bai Lan's eyes were shining, Lin Jincheng didn't think much about accepting the veil, but Zheng Ruyi remembered it in his heart, took a deep look at Bai Lan who was full of admiration, and the corners of his mouth slightly curled up.
Lin Jinhua suddenly pointed to the handkerchief and said, "Hey, this handkerchief seems to belong to a woman, brother, where did you get into a romantic debt again?"
Lin Jincheng felt strange, opened the veil and took a look, and sure enough, he saw two delicate words 'Lan'er' embroidered on the bottom of the veil.
He frowned: "This handkerchief..."
"Could it be that some young lady slipped it into my brother's sleeve just now?" Lin Jinhua joked, "That's really good, I was worried about when my brother would find me a sister-in-law, and now there is a Miss Lan'er here. "
"Jinhua, don't talk nonsense..." Lin Jincheng was a little embarrassed, but he didn't want to blame his sister. He just hoped that Zheng Ruyi wouldn't misunderstand her.
Zheng Ruyi saw Lin Jinhua's dislike for her, so she just smiled slightly: "She is a very bold lady."
"Isn't that so." Lin Jinhua looked at her with a slight smile, wishing she could see through her at a glance, but she didn't do it too much, fearing that too much force would make her brother uncomfortable.
Zheng Ruyi became more and more embarrassed, she clutched her sleeves secretly, and looked at Lin Jincheng with a gentle smile: "Young master Lin, do you want to sit in the private room for a while?"
"nature……"
Before Lin Jincheng finished speaking, there was a commotion outside, and then a dozen or so yamen servants ran in.
Seeing the people from the government coming so quickly, Lin Jinhua knew that Kang Ji had already said everything, and the chill in her eyes deepened.
The leader stepped forward and bowed his hands to the two, saying: "Young General, Master Jing Zhaoyin would like to invite Miss Lin to the official residence, and I have something to ask."
Lin Jincheng naturally cared more about his younger sister now, he stepped forward to stop Lin Jinhua and said in a low voice, "What's the matter?"
The leader glanced at the elegant and stunning Lin Jinhua behind him, stared blankly, blushed hurriedly, lowered his head and said, "It's about last night's murder case, please excuse me, Miss Lin, I'll let Miss Lin go immediately after the inquiry. .”
Lin Jincheng looked back at Lin Jinhua in puzzlement, seeing that she also looked puzzled, and said, "I'll go with her."
"Please." The leader heaved a sigh of relief and turned to one side.
Lin Jinhua only followed closely beside Lin Jincheng, like a frightened little girl.
The officer looked at her leaving back, she was very delicate, if she said that she threatened Kang Ji, a big man, and devised such a vicious method, who would believe it?
Thinking like this, he quickly sent someone to the government.
Zheng Ruyi didn't expect things to turn out like this. Seeing that Lin Jincheng turned away without looking at her again, her face darkened a little, and she said to the maid next to her, "Go and find out who that Miss Lan'er is."
this compartment.
Lin Jinhua had just arrived at the county government office, and many people had already surrounded the hall.The second lady was also there, her hair was in a disheveled bun, but she stood upright with her neck stalked. She didn't cast a dark glance at her until she came.
Kang Ji knelt on the ground shivering, and shouted in a hoarse voice: "Master Zhang, she was the one who designed all this and forced me to kill that woman, and she also poisoned me so that I would not confess to her, otherwise I would be killed." Itching all over the body until it is bloody from scratching. Master Zhang, you have to learn from it!"
Lin Jinhua glanced at him. Apart from the two legs he had broken, there were scars on his body. It seemed that Mr. Zhang had already been punished.
The second lady also took the opportunity to say: "Jinhua, my aunt has treated you well for so many years. Why did you frame me like this? Zisu is also a member of the Lin family. You just can't tolerate her so much and drove her out of the Lin family. If the government doesn't say, you will be satisfied if you kill us and your uncle! I didn't believe that you were possessed by evil spirits, but now it seems that it is true."
She wept softly, as if every word contained unbearable and painful feelings.
People in Dajin have always believed in ghosts and gods, and now they are starting to talk about it.
Lin Jinhua watched his father sitting beside him frown, and the second master also seemed to believe her words, looked at himself with hatred, pretended to be scared and hid behind Lin Jincheng, and said timidly: "Brother, I'm afraid. "
Lin Jincheng didn't believe that his weak sister could do these things, so he comforted him before pointing to Kang Ji and said, "Jinhua is not yet sixteen this year, and she is a weak woman who threatens you, who will believe it?"
Kang Ji opened his mouth and said, "She brought someone with her."
"Ridiculous." Lin Jincheng snorted coldly, looking at the second wife: "Miss's backyard will be locked after dark. If Jinhua still takes people out, wouldn't the housekeeper's second aunt know?"
The second lady frowned: "There is a deserted courtyard in the mansion, which can directly lead to the back alley of the mansion."
Lin Jinhua took the opportunity to ask, "What yard?"
"You—!" Seeing that she couldn't bear it, the second lady gritted her teeth: "Shan Cha saw the inside you went in with her own eyes, can you still deny it?"
Sitting at the top, Mr. Zhang looked at the ferocious second lady and the timid Lin Jinhua, frowned, patted the gavel, and said, "Then where is this camellia?"
"She's..." The second lady's throat seemed to be choked, Shan Cha died last night, and she died in the lake next to her yard.
"Shancha was originally a maid sent to my yard by my second aunt, but she drowned in the small lake next to my second aunt's yard in the middle of the night last night." Lin Jinhua bit her lips slightly.
As soon as these words came out, the people outside were not fools.Isn't this obviously killing people to silence her, and she died outside the Second Madam's courtyard. Except for herself, who would have the guts to kill people right under her nose?
Seeing the second lady choking, Lin Jinhua felt sarcasm in her heart, and only looked at the rebellious Kang Ji, and said: "Master Kang said that I poisoned, but I never poisoned, and the manor never bought any poison. If you don't believe me, you can go to the pharmacy to check the purchase records."
Mr. Zhang thought it made sense, so he nodded and asked someone to investigate immediately.
Lin Jinhua stepped forward and squeezed his wrist to feel his pulse, before saying, "Except for the excessive blood loss, Master Kang is not poisoned..." she said.
Kang Ji was also dumbfounded: "How is it possible, you clearly took the pill for me last night..." He paused, and immediately reacted, gnashing his teeth and rushing towards her: "Lin Jinhua, you lied to me, I killed you!" you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Jincheng stepped forward and kicked the person away, and looked at the second lady coldly. He said that whoever dares to hurt her, he will crush their bones!
