Nong Hua Makeup
Chapter 47 She's Ruthless
Chapter 47 She's Ruthless
The moment the hijab flew up, everyone gasped.
Zhao Kan didn't look back at all, he was sure that this person was Lin Jinhua, that's why everyone was surprised.
He looked at Zhao Huaiyan who was facing him with a smile, and said with a slight smile, "Brother Emperor, do you still want to congratulate my younger brother?"
"Naturally." Zhao Huaiyan looked indifferent, and turned to look at the bride again: "The beauty is like this, the auspicious time has come, let's pay homage earlier."
Seeing his calm expression, Zhao Kan also sensed that something was wrong. He hurriedly turned to look at the bride beside him, only to find that it was not Lin Jinhua he thought, but Lin Zisu!Even though she was wearing thick makeup, the ugly scar on her face still couldn't be covered.
Lin Zisu bit her lip slightly, she could feel the sudden anger bursting from Zhao Kan's body, she just stood with downcast eyes and didn't speak.
Looking at her like this, Zhao Kan's face turned blue, and he squeezed out a few words between his teeth: "Why are you!"
"What's wrong with His Royal Highness King Jing? If it's not Miss Lin Si, who else could it be?" Gao Jin stepped forward and smiled.
Zhao Kan gritted his teeth and didn't say a word. The matter has come to this point, and he has no other way to do it. It's only his own fault that he trusts the Lin family to handle this matter well!He glanced at Zhao Huaiyan who came to congratulate him on purpose, and hated him even more. If it wasn't for him, there would be no mistakes.
He turned his head and was about to go to Prince Jing's Mansion which had not been fully tidied up on his own, but he heard the sedan chair behind him suddenly making noise again.
He paused slightly, is there anyone else inside?Is it Lin Jinhua?
He glanced at Lin Zisu hesitantly, Lin Zisu just lowered his head.Since Lin Xiyu was to be destroyed, today is the best opportunity.
After Lin Xiyu passed out yesterday, she was drugged again, she fell asleep and woke up now, but when she woke up, she only felt red in front of her eyes, without thinking, she tore off the hijab, and then came out of Get out of the sedan chair: "What's going on..."
Before she finished speaking, she was stunned when she saw Lin Zisu and Zhao Kan in wedding dresses in front of her.
Before Zhao Kan got angry, Lin Zisu quickly knelt down and said sadly, "Third prince, my daughter is guilty."
"You'd better make it clear!" Zhao Kan suppressed his anger. He has been in a good position for so many years, and now he wants to marry a broken shoe in front of everyone, and make such a joke. Make him feel ashamed!
Lin Zisu knelt on the ground, tears fell like broken beads, and said pitifully, "It's the eldest sister who has always admired you, Your Highness, and said that today she will marry Zisu no matter what, and she can be a concubine. If the servant girl doesn't agree, she will throw herself into the lake and threaten Zisu..." She choked up a bit, as if she couldn't continue.
Lin Xiyu rushed to the top of her head in anger at this moment, stepped forward and scolded angrily: "You are talking nonsense, when did I say this? And even if you want to marry, I will be the concubine and you will be the concubine!" She did not agree I mind marrying Zhao Kan, but she is the eldest sister, how can she be a concubine under her younger sister?
But as soon as these words came out, outsiders thought that she really wanted to marry Zhao Kan, and that she wanted to snatch her sister's princess position.
Lin Zisu pulled her sleeves and begged, "Big sister, you didn't say that before. The matter has come to this point, you just admit it. Now that you are in the prince's sedan chair and arrived at the palace, can you still go back?" ?”
Seeing her like this, Lin Xiyu immediately raised her hand and slapped her.
Everyone was stunned for a moment, they started fighting at the gate before entering the palace.
Zhao Kan couldn't bear it, so he said in a deep voice, "Have you had enough trouble?"
"My lord..." Lin Xiyu wanted to defend herself, but she saw that Zhao Kan's usually affectionate eyes became fierce, staring at her: "If Miss Lin wants to go back, the king will order you now." Someone will send you away!"
"No, my lord, if you send away big sister now, doesn't that mean you don't want her? Then how will she marry in the future?" Lin Zisu begged, covering her face.
Lin Xiyu was also confused, what should I do now?It's not good to go, and I'm not reconciled to staying!
She froze in place, suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly said: "My lord, you don't want to marry Zisu, you want to marry Jin..."
"Shut up! You're talking nonsense!" Zhao Kan scolded, and glanced at the attendants on the left and right. The attendants immediately stepped forward and surrounded Lin Xiyu: "Send her back to the Lin Mansion now!" Zhao Kan said coldly, and went to the palace without looking back. I went inside.
Lin Zisu hurriedly stood up, looked at Lin Xiyu and lowered her voice, and said, "Eldest sister, you should think about it clearly. If you go back this time, you will be abandoned and returned to the mansion. Let alone marrying into the royal family, no one will dare to marry you in this life." I want you!" After saying that, he turned his head and followed Zhao Kan into the mansion.
Lin Xiyu was even more bewildered, and her heart was flustered, she just stared at Lin Zisu's back and shouted: "It's all because of you, Lin Zisu, you bitch!"
Lin Zisu's back froze slightly when she entered, then she clenched her palms tightly and left without looking back.No matter what, she must become this Princess Jing!
After entering the hall, according to the royal etiquette, one has to pay homage to the hall, but no one from Concubine De and Xiong's family came.
Zhao Kan glanced at the master of ceremonies, and said coldly: "There is no need to visit the hall." If the imperial edict had not been issued, he would have left in a hurry.
Lin Zisu had tears in her eyes, but she didn't speak.
When the atmosphere was awkward, there was a sudden sound of suona and firecrackers outside, which attracted many people to watch.
Immediately, a guard ran in from outside and whispered something in Zhao Kan's ear. Upon hearing this, Zhao Kan immediately looked at Zhao Huaiyan coldly, and then sneered: "Brother Emperor really bothered you."
"Brother Sanhuang is polite." Zhao Huaiyan said lightly and said no more.
Zhao Kan gritted his teeth angrily, but there was nothing he could do about him, so he whispered to the guards: "Take him to the backyard, don't disturb the others..."
Before the words fell, the suona sound outside suddenly stopped, and then another guard hurried in: "My lord, the second master Lin's body may not be able to hold on..." Thinking of which sedan chair he fell from just now, his whole body was festered. He felt sick for a while, but without the order of the prince, he did not dare to deal with the old father-in-law of the prince.
"Second Master Lin..." Zhao Huaiyan slightly raised the corners of his lips, "The old father-in-law of the third brother."
Zhao Kan's complexion became more and more serious, he glanced at Lin Zisu coldly, and said in a cold voice: "Call the imperial physician immediately, and make sure to treat him well!" He bit every word very hard in the last half of the sentence, and Lin Zisu couldn't help it when he heard it. Know what he means, he wants to kill daddy!
She took a step forward, and before she could open her mouth, she heard him say in a cold voice: "There is no need to pay homage, why don't you go down and wait for the bridal chamber festivities, when the king comes to give you luck?"
What he said was revealing and rude, and the wives beside him blushed and lowered their heads and smiled, looking at Lin Zisu with even more contempt and disdain.
Lin Zisu felt as if she had been slapped a dozen times on the face, and it was burning hot.
Before she could speak, a maid came and pinched her arm forcefully and dragged her in: "Miss Lin Si, please!"
Up to now, they just called Miss Lin Si, and they didn't regard her as the hostess of King Jing's Mansion at all.
Zhao Kan looked coldly at the entrance of the mansion, but he didn't know that someone was looking at it with burning eyes.
Lin Jincheng looked at Lin Jinhua next to the inconspicuous carriage beside the road and said with a smile, "If you don't want to part with Zisu, why don't you come and see her off yourself?"
The corners of Lin Jinyu's mouth slightly curled up: "I'm a girl who hasn't left the cabinet after all. What does my brother think of me when he says that?"
She said coquettishly, and Lin Jincheng hurriedly smiled slightly: "I know you are eloquent. But Zisu's tricks are not right, so you will have less contact with her in the future. Now I don't know if she designed Xiyu, or Xiyu designed her, and the two of the Lin family are in control." The two daughters have all turned into King Jing’s mansion this time, we’ll go back earlier and tell your aunt the news.”
Seeing that he knew what was going on in his mind, Lin Jinhua didn't say much.She didn't tell him that Zhao Kan and Lin Zisu planned their own affairs together. Although my brother has a stable temper, there is no guarantee that he will not be able to help but tear himself apart with Zhao Kan in the future, and then drag him into danger again.
She glanced at Lin Xiyu who was standing at the door and refused to leave, then at Lin Wei who was only breathless after being carried away, put down the curtain, and was about to leave, but the moment she put down the curtain, an inconspicuous car The green-curtained carriage drove over and stopped under the big pagoda tree not far from King Jing's Mansion. The curtain of the carriage was lifted, and Lin Jinhua could just see the people in the carriage.
She blinked her eyes, and gave a surprised cry. Lin Jincheng didn't know what was going on, so she followed her to see, "What's wrong?"
After she finished speaking, she followed her gaze and saw the well-dressed person in the green-draped carriage.The hand that raised the curtain carried the phoenix bracelet.
He gritted his teeth slightly, put down the car curtain and said nothing.
"Is brother okay?"
In the end, Lin Jincheng just sighed and looked at her with a gentle smile: "You are a young grader, but you know a lot."
Lin Jinhua blinked: "During the time when Dad and you were not at home, my mother and I were reading books every day. There are so many things in the book, what is Guan Jujiu, in the river continent, a fair lady, a gentleman is so good .”
"You still read these?"
"That's right, I've read some policy theory, but it doesn't make much sense. For example, there is an article that mentions the water of the monarch's boat and the people. If the water of the people can capsize the boat of the monarch, is there any need for this water to exist?" Lin Jinhua was confused. Dao, but this topic is the topic that will be tested next spring.She remembered that Jiang Qingshu had watched his mother die of pain and illness because others refused to help him, so he wrote with extreme remarks, but instead won the first place, but now that his mother is still alive, he must not be so extreme.
Lin Jincheng thought for a while, then shook his head: "I haven't read the article you mentioned, but..."
He analyzed the events from ancient times to the present in detail, and saw that Lin Jinhua not only didn't feel sleepy, but listened with gusto, and began to speak more vigorously, until the carriage returned to Lin's mansion, he didn't finish speaking.
"Do you understand what I said? There is nothing wrong with Jun Zhoumin Shui, but it is better for you to talk less about these things." He warned before getting off the carriage.The emperor was suspicious. Hearing this, he couldn't help thinking that the Lin family had ulterior motives.
Lin Jinhua bent her eyes: "I understand." After finishing speaking, the two brothers and sisters went to the old lady's yard together. The old lady was also drinking tea and talking here, and she was surprised that Lin Xiyu hadn't been seen all morning.
When the mother-in-law came in from the outside and said that the Lin Jinhua brothers and sisters had come, the eldest lady was still surprised: "They came together?"
The mother-in-law nodded and said in a low voice: "It seems that Miss Seven was not sent to Prince Jing's Mansion as planned."
"What!" The old lady stood up directly.
The mother-in-law nodded hurriedly: "I sent someone to inquire, and said that the third son quietly led Miss Seven out of the mansion early in the morning, and just now came back from the main gate, Miss Seven didn't get on the sedan chair at all."
"Who is that on the sedan chair?" The lady also asked.
Just as we were talking, another person came from the outside, and saw that the old lady and the eldest lady were there, so he hurriedly said: "It's not good, just now there was news from the front that the eldest lady and the fourth lady were all carried to King Jing's mansion in a sedan chair. I went, and the second master is also in King Jing's mansion now."
The old lady felt a little dizzy when she heard the words. It is a good thing that the missing son was found, but the promise to King Jing was not fulfilled, and instead she paid for an extra granddaughter who was available!
The eldest lady was even more confused: "Are you sure that is the eldest lady, not the seventh lady?"
"Yes."
"How is it possible? The third prince personally sent someone to assist Zisu..." The lady paused in the middle of her sentence, and immediately darkened her face as if remembering something: "It must be Lin Zisu who designed Xiyu, she Resent Xiyu for burning her face! This one who killed a thousand swords, this one who killed a thousand swords!" After speaking, he sat down on one side and began to lament the poor daughter.
The old lady was still a little calmer, looked at the old woman and said: "Go and send the people outside, and then go and find out what's going on!"
The mother-in-law hurriedly responded.
Lin Jinhua had expected this to happen a long time ago, but there was nothing unexpected about it. Lin Jincheng's face was slightly gloomy, but he didn't say much.
After sending Lin Jinyu all the way back to Luoxia Garden, she stopped and said, "If you don't want to stay in Lin's house, you can go directly to live in Xu's house after the new year, and it won't be too late to come back when you are going to get married."
Lin Jinhua knew that he was worried about herself, so she just smiled and shook her head: "Both brother and daddy are here, Jinhua likes this place very much."
Lin Jincheng's heart warmed slightly, but seeing her like this, his heart ached even more, and he secretly made up his mind that from now on, the Lin family would never touch her again!
After Lin Jincheng left, Lin Jinhua turned around and went back to the room.
Yang's mother in the main room has cleaned up neatly, but Lin Zisu has only stayed for a day, so many treasures in this room are gone, and the jewelry box is also missing a lot.
"Forget it, I'll just send her off." Lin Jinhua said lightly, seeing that the room had been incensed, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and she sat down on the warm couch, and asked someone to marry a pen and ink, and recited Lin Jincheng's previous remarks about policy theory. After writing down his opinion, he wrote down a prescription and found Mo Feng.
Mo Feng looked at the prescription and looked at her strangely: "Miss, is this medicine prescribed for the concubine Jia?"
Lin Jinhua understood her meaning at a glance when she saw her, sighed with Zhao Huaiyan's ability to train people, and nodded with a smile.
"Mother Yang, bring me my little box," she said.
Yang's mother hurriedly went to get her special box for silver bills. After Lin Jinhua opened it, she counted it, and there were less than 300 taels in total.
She looked at the pile of jewelry boxes on the table, picked out the jewelry that was not commonly used and meaningless, and handed them to Mo Feng: "Take it and pawn it, and then use the money to buy these medicinal materials on my prescription, don't As the Lin family."
"Miss wants to stockpile medicinal materials." She also knows a little about medicinal materials, and after looking at them, the ones she wants to save are all common ones that are not used very much, so there are very few medicinal materials in pharmacies.
Lin Jinhua nodded. She doesn't stockpile these medicinal materials, but some people will. When the disease breaks out, all those infected will have to wait to die.The outbreak of this disease was extremely rapid, and once it was out of control, it would take less than a day to die, so Zhao Qing couldn't be saved back then.
Mother Yang didn't think much about it, but Mo Feng's eyes shrank: "Miss, is the illness of the concubine Jia contagious?"
Lin Jinhua felt more and more that she was smart: "Yes."
"How big will it be?"
"Starting from the palace, everyone that person wants to kill will die, but innocent people will be implicated," she said.
Mo Feng understood what she meant, nodded, turned around and was about to go out.
Lin Jinhua seemed to think of something again: "Wait..." If the Xu family can take the opportunity to make meritorious service, wouldn't it be a step for the emperor to come back?She remembered that her aunt had some pharmacies under her control.
Mo Feng looked at her in surprise, and she immediately turned around and wrote another letter, copied the prescription just now and attached it to her back, and gave it to Mo Feng: "Send the letter to Xu's house in Yuzhou immediately, and ask someone to tell uncle to call him The pharmacy under my hand is quietly buying more medicinal materials, the more the better."
Mo Feng looked at her with more serious eyes: "Miss, do you think you should tell the prince about this?"
"Yes." Lin Jinhua agreed very simply.
Mo Fengben was still a little hesitant, worried that she would feel that her servant was unfaithful, but she didn't expect it to be so straightforward.
Seeing her looking at him hesitantly, Lin Jinhua smiled relievedly: "If he and I were so estranged, I wouldn't ask you to do this matter."
When Mo Feng heard this, his impression of her was only a little clever, but now it seems that this young girl must have hidden great wisdom.
She saluted respectfully and then went out.
Seeing that everything was well arranged, Lin Jinhua began to enjoy the rare and peaceful Chinese New Year with peace of mind.
Winter nights always come quickly, after dinner, Luoxia Court locked and turned off the lights, even the eldest lady who wanted to come to make trouble was turned away, and had to leave angrily.
In the night, two figures quickly passed through the already quiet wide street, only a few barks from time to time indicated that someone had passed by here.
In the residence of the Nine Princes.
Wei Yunyi covered her mouth and coughed lightly, looking at the concubine Jia who was leaning on the side of the warm couch who had lost a lot of weight, she said distressedly: "Mother, concubine, drink some ginseng soup, it will give you some strength."
Concubine Jia gently shook her head, took her hand and patted it: "Thank you for your hard work, you are sick and you still want to take care of me."
"It's not hard, it's Yun Yi's duty to take care of mother and concubine." Wei Yunyi smiled calmly.
When Zhao Qing stood outside the bead curtain and watched this scene, his eyes softened a lot, but it was a pity that Yun Yi still couldn't untie the knot in her heart.
"My lord." A servant girl saw him and hurriedly saluted him.
Joy appeared in Wei Yunyi's eyes, and he quickly got up to salute him. Although his attitude was respectful, there was still admiration in his eyes, but they were very unfamiliar.
Zhao Qing glanced at her, helped her to sit down lightly, and then looked at Concubine Jia: "Mother Concubine, are you better?"
"The Empress asked Imperial Physician Liu to take care of her in person, and she took the medicine again, so she will be better." After she finished speaking, she began to cough again.
Zhao Qing clenched his hands tightly, and finally couldn't help but said: "I'm going to look for Brother Dahuang..."
"Why do you implicate him." Concubine Jia pulled him back: "No one is willing to help us except Huaiyan. If you implicate him, what will you do in the future?"
"But……"
"My concubine's life is ruined. She should have gone 20 years ago. Being able to live up to now has already delayed the blessing of Concubine Yin. Now she is alone in the ground, maybe she is lonely, and I should go to accompany her." When Concubine Jia talked about Zhao Huaiyan's biological mother, Concubine Yin, her eyes were full of light. Recalling those days, they had just entered the palace, and they were still green and green. In a blink of an eye, she was old, and the emperor even looked at her. He didn't want to look at her again.
Zhao Qing's face was tense, and he didn't make a sound, then suddenly heard a soft sound outside the room, and then the sound of a guard drawing a knife.
He stepped out immediately, opened the door, and a man wrapped in a black cloak and a masked woman were surrounded by guards in the yard.
He was startled, then heard her say: "Does the Ninth Prince want to issue an order to evict guests?"
"It's you." Hearing her voice, Zhao Qing unconsciously expressed a little joy.
Lin Jinhua smiled, but still did not take off her hat.
Zhao Qing understood, and yelled at the surroundings in a cold voice: "Everyone retreats outside the courtyard, and you are not allowed to come in without my prince's order!"
Everyone stepped back.
Seeing this, Lin Jinhua took off her veil and looked at him apologetically, "It's late, let someone decoct the medicine immediately." After speaking, Mo Xue handed over a medicine bag.
Zhao Qing immediately ordered someone to do it, and then welcomed her into the house.
In the room, Wei Yunyi saw Zhao Qing walking beside her, looked at his clear eyes, suddenly felt a sense of relief, stepped forward and only pulled Lin Jinhua and said, "Long time no see you."
"Last time I almost hurt my side concubine, I have no face to see you, please don't take offense at my side concubine." Lin Jinhua said while grabbing her pulse.The previous symptoms not only did not alleviate, but also aggravated.
Wei Yunyi withdrew his hand lightly, only looked at her with a smile: "Let's take a look at Concubine Mother first."
Lin Jinhua nodded, she didn't have much time.
Seeing that Concubine Jia's complexion was not good, she quickly checked her pulse and frowned slightly.Even if she knows medicine, she doesn't know acupuncture.She paused, looked at Zhao Qing and said, "Murong's family's acupuncture has always been the best in the world."
"But Mr. Murong has disappeared." Wei Yunyi worried.
"I know where to find him, but if you find him, you must help him." She looked at Zhao Qing.Now that Murong Yu sees Murong Chen, he must know about Xiong Shuli. With his temperament, he is probably squatting outside Xiong's mansion waiting for revenge, but he is a frail scholar, and he will definitely not be able to kill the powerful Xiong Shuli.
Zhao Qing knew about this, but he hadn't done anything for a long time except to help Zhao Huaiyan.
He looked at Lin Jinhua and frowned slightly: "Is this the only way?"
"The acupuncture skills of Imperial Physician Liu outside must be good, but will he help..." Lin Jinhua knew that Imperial Physician Liu belonged to the Empress, and if he wanted to heal his concubine, he would have done it long ago.
Zhao Qing took a deep look at Lin Jinhua, and narrowed her eyes suspiciously: "I found that you have a purpose in everything you do."
Wei Yunyi thought that Lin Jinhua would be angry, so she hurriedly went to see Zhao Qing: "Ninth Prince, you..."
"I was born for my purpose, and I can die for my purpose." She put up her sleeves for Concubine Jia, then stood up and looked at him, who was half a head taller than herself, with a slight smile: "The Ninth Prince doesn't care what he wants." I don't want to help this, I will try my best to save the concubine Jia, but my ability is limited, the Ninth Prince should know what to do, Murong Chen is now in Murong's ancestral house, and it is likely that he is worried about Miss Murong's matter." After all, he also Regardless of Zhao Qing, she just looked at Jia Concubine and smiled slightly: "Your Majesty's condition is not serious yet, you should drink the decocted medicine while it's hot, five times a day. Take the medicine well and you'll be fine."
Concubine Jia knew that she was comforting herself, and her face was gentle, not pretending at all, and she was not only moved with emotion for her generosity and the depth of the city.But how did a teenage girl come to such a deep city?
She didn't know that Lin Jinhuai was already a wounded and riddled person. These tricks were nothing but their tricks learned in her previous life.
Lin Jinhua left very quickly, without delay, Mo Xue hugged her and went out.
Zhao Qing looked at her back, pursed slightly, and looked back at Wei Yunyi: "I'm going out of the house, you take good care of the concubine mother."
"My concubine understands."
Zhao Qing didn't say any more, and immediately rode his horse and headed towards Murong's ancestral house.
Lin Jinhua and Mo Xue hid in the big tree outside the Ninth Prince's Mansion, and they were relieved to see Zhao Qing leaving on horseback.
Mo Xue was a little puzzled: "Miss, why bother with so many nosy things?" In her opinion, the life and death of the Murong family has nothing to do with the Lin family or the palace.
Lin Jinhua smiled slightly: "There are no useless chess pieces, only people who can't play chess." Even she herself is a chess piece on her own chessboard, useless?nonexistent.
In the next few days, the capital was filled with joy on the surface, and even Prince Jing's Mansion became quiet. As for what was going on inside, no one knew.
Only the eldest son of the Lin family was in a gloomy mood. After all, it was the day when Lin Zisu returned home on the sixth day of the lunar new year, and Lin Xiyu also came back as a concubine.
The eldest lady seemed to agree that Lin Xiyu became King Jing's side concubine instead of a concubine, but Zhao Kan didn't return to the mansion these days, and stayed in the brothel all the time, ignoring these things at all.
On the day of returning home, Concubine De, for the sake of the marriage bestowed by the emperor, let the people of Prince Jing's Mansion give Lin Zisu some face, and the people of Prince Jing's Mansion also knew the grievances between Concubine Zhao Kande and the third wife of the Lin family, so they were very happy Help Lin Zisu.
It stands to reason that when the princess returns home, the whole family will come to welcome her.
Lin Luzhi and the old lady stood at the front and waited, while Lin Jinhua stood behind.
Looking at the carriage coming from Prince Jing's Mansion from afar, the magnificent carriage and the servants around him looked pretty good, but before Lin Zisu came over, Lin Xiyu who was in the carriage behind rushed out and rushed to the eldest lady In his arms, he called "Mother" aggrievedly.
The eldest lady was so distressed, she pulled her aside and asked, "I have sent a lot of news to Prince Jing's mansion these days, why don't you want to see me?"
Lin Xiyu hated it when she mentioned this: "The people in King Jing's Mansion don't want to see us. They didn't tell me the news you passed on."
"how come……"
"Isn't it all about Lin Zisu? My reputation has been ruined, and I have been shamelessly occupying the position of Princess Jing, embarrassing the prince, and embarrassing the Lin family!" Lin Xiyu's voice was not low. Su listened.
The people at the door heard it all, but they didn't make a sound.
Lin Zisu's complexion was slightly pale, and she got out of the carriage with airs on her shoulders, but still stuck her neck proudly.She had a thick layer of makeup on her face. If it wasn't for the hideous scar on her face, she would still be pretty, but she lacked the aura she used to have, making her look much vulgar. A little more boring.
Everyone saluted, she saw Lin Xiyu still holding the eldest lady and stood aside to salute, she only secretly looked coldly, and smiled at everyone: "We are all a family, so there is no need to be too polite." Lin Jinhua, in a simple rouge-colored long dress and a plain cloak outside, is already a beautiful woman without makeup, especially when she looks at herself with a faint smile in her eyes.
She clenched her teeth tightly. Is she laughing at herself?
Her eyes flickered slightly, and she looked at Lin Jinhua with a smile: "Seventh sister, the prince mentioned it last time, saying that I am too boring to be alone in the mansion, and I want to invite you to stay with me for a few days, what do you want?"
Lin Jinhua smiled: "Didn't Big Sister stay with Fourth Sister all day?"
Lin Xiyu became angry as soon as she heard this, and snorted softly: "The concubine who is so high up, how can I still have my elder sister in her eyes?"
Lin Luzhi glanced at the two of them and coughed lightly: "The tea is ready in the house, let's go into the house."
Lin Zisu smiled awkwardly, and secretly clenched her palms.
Lin Xiyu entered the mansion ahead of her and took the eldest lady back. The old lady still cared about the face of the third prince's mansion, but said to Lin Zisu: "Princess, please go to my courtyard and sit down."
"En." Lin Zisu responded, looked at Lin Luzhi as he left, and said, "Third Uncle knows that Father is in King Jing's Mansion?"
"Know……"
"Since that's the case, please trouble third uncle to bring him back to take good care of him. After all, he is my concubine's father, your elder brother, so it's not good for me to live in King Jing's Mansion forever." , but she is at least Princess Jing. Even if Lin Luzhi is a general, he still has to respect himself a little bit in terms of etiquette.
After she finished speaking, Lin Luzhi frowned: "My minister..."
"Father lives in the son-in-law's house. It's only right and proper. Why does the fourth sister think it's wrong?" Lin Jinhua said immediately.
Lin Luzhi didn't speak for the first time.
The old lady snorted softly: "There is no reason to always live in King Jing's Mansion." After finishing speaking, she looked at Lin Luzhi: "You go to King Jing's Mansion to bring him back now, don't make any mistakes."
Lin Zisu's hands in the sleeves were clenched secretly, her eyes were a little bit tangled, but more ruthless.
Lin Luzhi would not go against the old lady's wishes, so he wanted to bow his hands, but was stopped by Lin Jinhua.
She looked at Lin Zisu's clenched palms secretly, there must be something wrong with it, she must have other purposes in trying to trick her father.
"Father, why should you be in such a hurry? I heard that the second uncle was resting at Prince Jing's Mansion because he was ill. If he had to pick him up today, he would have to choose two gentle horses to pull the cart. How's that?" Lin Jinhua smiled sensiblely.
Both the old lady and Lin Luzhi thought it was reasonable, but they were not in a hurry to go.
Lin Zisu held back the anger in her heart, looked at Lin Jinhua with a smile, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly: "Seventh sister is really the smartest person I have ever met, but smart people have a problem, that is, they are too confident and become conceited, and they will He lifted a rock and shot himself in the foot."
Lin Jincheng couldn't listen anymore, so he stepped forward to stand in front of Lin Jinhua: "Princess, please."
Lin Zisu glanced at him lightly, only smiled vaguely, turned her head and went in.
The old lady squinted at Lin Jinhua, then looked at Lin Luzhi, and said coldly: "My children are too used to it, and they will easily cause trouble in the future. Today, Zisu sees that she is a younger sister, so don't care about her. It's no wonder I didn't remind you that she got killed when she talked to the nobleman like this later."
"My son understands."
"Now that you understand it, you have to teach it. She is about to get married, and she has to learn to manage the accounts at home, so stay in the room and copy the accounts. After copying [-] copies, she will leave Luoxia Garden." The old lady said coldly. Well, he gave Lin Jinhua a cold look before turning around and leaving.
After they left, Lin Jincheng looked at Lin Luzhi: "Father..."
"I understand for my father." He sighed slightly: "You all go back to the yard first, and for my father, go pick up your second uncle."
Lin Jincheng wanted to continue talking, but was secretly held back by Lin Jinhua.
After Lin Luzhi left, she said in a low voice: "It's just copying the accounts, it's a trivial matter. My brother will lead someone to follow father quietly after a while, I'm worried about ghosts."
"You said that Zisu..."
"She's crazy now. Don't use any means to achieve her goal. Didn't my brother see it?" Lin Jinhua looked at his solemn expression and said.
Lin Jincheng thought for a while, then frowned slightly: "And the second uncle can't come back either. Don't worry, I will handle this matter."
Seeing him, Lin Jinhua also thought of this, and she was really relieved.After he left, he turned around and went back to Luoxia Garden.
Not long after going back, the old lady asked someone to bring the account books, a total of [-] books, full of dust.
Mo Feng brought the soup, glanced at it, and said: "My lord knows someone who is good at imitating handwriting, do you need it, miss?"
The corners of Lin Jinhua's mouth slightly curled up, looked at A Bao who was busy cleaning, and said with a smile, "Move it and burn it."
"what?"
"Burn." Lin Jinhua said seriously again.The old lady said that she didn't know the rules, so why should she behave like those ordinary ladies.
Ah Bao checked again, and seeing that she was not joking, he hurriedly carried her out to be burned.
Lin Jinhua pushed open the window, looked at the steaming smoke in the yard, and then looked at Yang's mother on the side: "I asked you to find your man, where is he?"
"I've been waiting in the corner room of the front yard. You've been busy these few days, and the slaves haven't bothered you." Mama Yang hurriedly said. She thought Lin Jinhua was just talking casually before, but if she hasn't seen her for a few days, she must have forgotten it , I don't know how to remember.
"Go and call someone, I have something to say." She said.
"Yes." Mother Yang was overjoyed and hurried down.
After she left, Lin Jinhua looked at Mo Xue who had been silent all this time, and smiled slightly: "I'm going out of the house tonight."
"Where do you want to go, miss?"
"I haven't seen Master Huijue for a long time. I need to ask him for help." She asked Huijue to lean on Mrs. Hou. This guy is good. He forgot her when he hugged Mrs. Hou's thigh. She had to make him sober. .
Mo Xue's eyes flickered, and she nodded: "Your servant understands, let's go down and make arrangements."
"Yes." Lin Jinhua nodded.Sure enough, there is a girl who knows kung fu and is smart, and it is indeed much easier to use.
Not long after, Mama Yang led someone over. It was a crippled man with bright eyes. After Xu had been repeatedly told by Mama Yang, he didn't dare to look around when he entered the flower hall, so he just knelt on the ground to salute: "The servant Zhu Wucai has met Miss, Miss Wanfu."
Lin Jinhua didn't give him any warning, but only smiled and asked him to stand up. Seeing that he was still respectful, she said, "What did you do with the second lady in the shop before?"
"The slave is the shopkeeper." He hurriedly bowed and laughed.
Lin Jinhua nodded: "I have four or five shops, two silk shops, one pawnshop, and two restaurants, which one do you want to take care of?"
When Zhu Wucai heard this, his eyeballs twitched, and he hurriedly said: "I want to ask Miss, how are these shops doing?"
"I haven't seen a shop hand over money for three years, what do you think?" Lin Jinhua said.
When Zhu Wucai heard this, he immediately said: "I think, if I let my servant go to visit quietly first, to see if there are any troublemakers in the few shops, after three years, no matter how poor the management is, it is impossible to fail."
Seeing that he still had some ideas, Lin Jinhua nodded, "In that case, let's go to these five shops and give me an answer in ten days, how about it?"
"Three days is enough. I don't know, Miss. I, Zhu Wucai, know a lot of people in the capital. Although I don't know all the high-ranking officials and dignitaries like Miss, I have acquaintances with traffickers and pawns, so it is easy to find out." Zhu Wucai grinned hurriedly.
Lin Jinhua leaned forward slightly to look at him: "Do you know that I don't like people who talk big?"
Mother Yang's complexion also turned pale. Once the young lady is serious, she will be really dangerous.
Zhu Wucai was not stupid, he quickly knelt down on the ground: "Miss, please don't worry, this servant has absolutely no intention of perfunctory you."
"Okay, give me the result within three days. If you report indiscriminately, you will know what the punishment is, but if you do well, this shop will make you the shopkeeper." Lin Jinhua knew he was slippery, but he was smart. In this case, it is natural that a smart person is the most important thing, and with Mama Yang around, she is a smart person and won't be out of control.
When Zhu Wucai heard this, he quickly kowtowed his head happily, and made a big promise, and Lin Jinhua sent him away.
"Mama Yang, let's go and see her off." Lin Jinhua looked at Mama Yang who was already standing with her feet facing out.
Yang's mother nodded immediately, she was afraid that her man would float out and talk nonsense, so she had to go out quickly to suppress him.
After she left, the room fell silent.
Lin Jinhua checked that the tea in the cup was finished, and got up to pour the tea. Before the tea was poured, there was a noise outside.
Ah Bao hurried in and said in a low voice: "Miss, the eldest lady and the eldest lady have come, saying that the girls in our courtyard stole the eldest lady's things, and they are beating and scolding right now."
"It's this trick again." When Lin Jinhua set fire to the account books, she knew that the Da Furen's people in the yard would go to report the news, and the Da Furen and Lin Xiyu together would definitely come to find him, but not for revenge, but for herself. He wanted to pull himself and them to deal with Lin Zisu.After all, Lin Xiyu is now Zhao Kan's person, and she is the eldest sister, the best face, how could she not want to climb up?
She slowly took a sip of the tea in the cup. Seeing this, Ah Bao thought he hadn't spoken clearly, and said timidly, "Miss, outside..."
"Not in a hurry." They wanted to give themselves a blow, but she still didn't take the blow.After drinking the tea slowly, the noise outside became quieter.
Lin Xiyu asked her maid to stop, looked at the maid who was crying loudly on the ground, and looked at the eldest lady strangely: "Mother, isn't Lin Jinhua really scared by us?"
"It's not like..." The lady knew that Lin Jinhua's character was very weird, and since she hadn't moved for so long, she was probably planning something.
Sure enough, as soon as she finished thinking, A Bao came out with a stick as thick as her arm, pointed at the maid beside Lin Xiyu who had just done it, and shouted: "Bold and unreasonable slave, dare to burn the account book sent by the old lady, I will beat you!" I'll kill you!" After saying that, he threw himself tremblingly with a stick in his hand.
Lin Xiyu and the eldest lady hurriedly took half a step back in fright, only to find that Lin Jinzheng was standing at the door with her arms crossed, looking at them both.
The eldest lady knew that her trick had been seen through, she cast a deep look at the trembling A Bao: "Okay, it's none of your business here, go down."
Ah Bao hurriedly turned her head to look at Lin Jinhua, but she saw Lin Jinhua saying quietly: "Maybe Auntie hasn't figured out what to say, why don't you go back and have a rest first."
"You—!" Lin Xiyu pointed at her, and Lin Jinhua just turned around and wanted to go back to the house.
Mo Feng hurried over from outside, ignored Lin Xiyu's mother and son, walked directly to her side and said in a low voice, "Lin Wei is dead."
Lin Jinhua paused slightly: "How did you die?"
"The master met an assassin on the way back to pick him up, and his head was chopped off." Mo Feng frowned, she knew how much this was a blow to the old lady, and she would definitely retaliate against the blow after the master and the three Fang body!
Lin Jinhua gritted her teeth: "Then father and brother..."
"It's the fault here, those assassins didn't hurt the master and the eldest son." Mo Feng said.
Lin Jinhua suddenly remembered the look in Lin Zisu's eyes when she asked her father to pick up Lin Wei when she entered the door. There was a trace of entanglement, but more of a heartless look.
"She's so ruthless!" Lin Jinhua said in a low voice, turned to look at the eldest lady and Lin Xiyu who were sticking their ears to this side, and tried to calm down her mood: "Auntie, sister, please come inside!"
(End of this chapter)
The moment the hijab flew up, everyone gasped.
Zhao Kan didn't look back at all, he was sure that this person was Lin Jinhua, that's why everyone was surprised.
He looked at Zhao Huaiyan who was facing him with a smile, and said with a slight smile, "Brother Emperor, do you still want to congratulate my younger brother?"
"Naturally." Zhao Huaiyan looked indifferent, and turned to look at the bride again: "The beauty is like this, the auspicious time has come, let's pay homage earlier."
Seeing his calm expression, Zhao Kan also sensed that something was wrong. He hurriedly turned to look at the bride beside him, only to find that it was not Lin Jinhua he thought, but Lin Zisu!Even though she was wearing thick makeup, the ugly scar on her face still couldn't be covered.
Lin Zisu bit her lip slightly, she could feel the sudden anger bursting from Zhao Kan's body, she just stood with downcast eyes and didn't speak.
Looking at her like this, Zhao Kan's face turned blue, and he squeezed out a few words between his teeth: "Why are you!"
"What's wrong with His Royal Highness King Jing? If it's not Miss Lin Si, who else could it be?" Gao Jin stepped forward and smiled.
Zhao Kan gritted his teeth and didn't say a word. The matter has come to this point, and he has no other way to do it. It's only his own fault that he trusts the Lin family to handle this matter well!He glanced at Zhao Huaiyan who came to congratulate him on purpose, and hated him even more. If it wasn't for him, there would be no mistakes.
He turned his head and was about to go to Prince Jing's Mansion which had not been fully tidied up on his own, but he heard the sedan chair behind him suddenly making noise again.
He paused slightly, is there anyone else inside?Is it Lin Jinhua?
He glanced at Lin Zisu hesitantly, Lin Zisu just lowered his head.Since Lin Xiyu was to be destroyed, today is the best opportunity.
After Lin Xiyu passed out yesterday, she was drugged again, she fell asleep and woke up now, but when she woke up, she only felt red in front of her eyes, without thinking, she tore off the hijab, and then came out of Get out of the sedan chair: "What's going on..."
Before she finished speaking, she was stunned when she saw Lin Zisu and Zhao Kan in wedding dresses in front of her.
Before Zhao Kan got angry, Lin Zisu quickly knelt down and said sadly, "Third prince, my daughter is guilty."
"You'd better make it clear!" Zhao Kan suppressed his anger. He has been in a good position for so many years, and now he wants to marry a broken shoe in front of everyone, and make such a joke. Make him feel ashamed!
Lin Zisu knelt on the ground, tears fell like broken beads, and said pitifully, "It's the eldest sister who has always admired you, Your Highness, and said that today she will marry Zisu no matter what, and she can be a concubine. If the servant girl doesn't agree, she will throw herself into the lake and threaten Zisu..." She choked up a bit, as if she couldn't continue.
Lin Xiyu rushed to the top of her head in anger at this moment, stepped forward and scolded angrily: "You are talking nonsense, when did I say this? And even if you want to marry, I will be the concubine and you will be the concubine!" She did not agree I mind marrying Zhao Kan, but she is the eldest sister, how can she be a concubine under her younger sister?
But as soon as these words came out, outsiders thought that she really wanted to marry Zhao Kan, and that she wanted to snatch her sister's princess position.
Lin Zisu pulled her sleeves and begged, "Big sister, you didn't say that before. The matter has come to this point, you just admit it. Now that you are in the prince's sedan chair and arrived at the palace, can you still go back?" ?”
Seeing her like this, Lin Xiyu immediately raised her hand and slapped her.
Everyone was stunned for a moment, they started fighting at the gate before entering the palace.
Zhao Kan couldn't bear it, so he said in a deep voice, "Have you had enough trouble?"
"My lord..." Lin Xiyu wanted to defend herself, but she saw that Zhao Kan's usually affectionate eyes became fierce, staring at her: "If Miss Lin wants to go back, the king will order you now." Someone will send you away!"
"No, my lord, if you send away big sister now, doesn't that mean you don't want her? Then how will she marry in the future?" Lin Zisu begged, covering her face.
Lin Xiyu was also confused, what should I do now?It's not good to go, and I'm not reconciled to staying!
She froze in place, suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly said: "My lord, you don't want to marry Zisu, you want to marry Jin..."
"Shut up! You're talking nonsense!" Zhao Kan scolded, and glanced at the attendants on the left and right. The attendants immediately stepped forward and surrounded Lin Xiyu: "Send her back to the Lin Mansion now!" Zhao Kan said coldly, and went to the palace without looking back. I went inside.
Lin Zisu hurriedly stood up, looked at Lin Xiyu and lowered her voice, and said, "Eldest sister, you should think about it clearly. If you go back this time, you will be abandoned and returned to the mansion. Let alone marrying into the royal family, no one will dare to marry you in this life." I want you!" After saying that, he turned his head and followed Zhao Kan into the mansion.
Lin Xiyu was even more bewildered, and her heart was flustered, she just stared at Lin Zisu's back and shouted: "It's all because of you, Lin Zisu, you bitch!"
Lin Zisu's back froze slightly when she entered, then she clenched her palms tightly and left without looking back.No matter what, she must become this Princess Jing!
After entering the hall, according to the royal etiquette, one has to pay homage to the hall, but no one from Concubine De and Xiong's family came.
Zhao Kan glanced at the master of ceremonies, and said coldly: "There is no need to visit the hall." If the imperial edict had not been issued, he would have left in a hurry.
Lin Zisu had tears in her eyes, but she didn't speak.
When the atmosphere was awkward, there was a sudden sound of suona and firecrackers outside, which attracted many people to watch.
Immediately, a guard ran in from outside and whispered something in Zhao Kan's ear. Upon hearing this, Zhao Kan immediately looked at Zhao Huaiyan coldly, and then sneered: "Brother Emperor really bothered you."
"Brother Sanhuang is polite." Zhao Huaiyan said lightly and said no more.
Zhao Kan gritted his teeth angrily, but there was nothing he could do about him, so he whispered to the guards: "Take him to the backyard, don't disturb the others..."
Before the words fell, the suona sound outside suddenly stopped, and then another guard hurried in: "My lord, the second master Lin's body may not be able to hold on..." Thinking of which sedan chair he fell from just now, his whole body was festered. He felt sick for a while, but without the order of the prince, he did not dare to deal with the old father-in-law of the prince.
"Second Master Lin..." Zhao Huaiyan slightly raised the corners of his lips, "The old father-in-law of the third brother."
Zhao Kan's complexion became more and more serious, he glanced at Lin Zisu coldly, and said in a cold voice: "Call the imperial physician immediately, and make sure to treat him well!" He bit every word very hard in the last half of the sentence, and Lin Zisu couldn't help it when he heard it. Know what he means, he wants to kill daddy!
She took a step forward, and before she could open her mouth, she heard him say in a cold voice: "There is no need to pay homage, why don't you go down and wait for the bridal chamber festivities, when the king comes to give you luck?"
What he said was revealing and rude, and the wives beside him blushed and lowered their heads and smiled, looking at Lin Zisu with even more contempt and disdain.
Lin Zisu felt as if she had been slapped a dozen times on the face, and it was burning hot.
Before she could speak, a maid came and pinched her arm forcefully and dragged her in: "Miss Lin Si, please!"
Up to now, they just called Miss Lin Si, and they didn't regard her as the hostess of King Jing's Mansion at all.
Zhao Kan looked coldly at the entrance of the mansion, but he didn't know that someone was looking at it with burning eyes.
Lin Jincheng looked at Lin Jinhua next to the inconspicuous carriage beside the road and said with a smile, "If you don't want to part with Zisu, why don't you come and see her off yourself?"
The corners of Lin Jinyu's mouth slightly curled up: "I'm a girl who hasn't left the cabinet after all. What does my brother think of me when he says that?"
She said coquettishly, and Lin Jincheng hurriedly smiled slightly: "I know you are eloquent. But Zisu's tricks are not right, so you will have less contact with her in the future. Now I don't know if she designed Xiyu, or Xiyu designed her, and the two of the Lin family are in control." The two daughters have all turned into King Jing’s mansion this time, we’ll go back earlier and tell your aunt the news.”
Seeing that he knew what was going on in his mind, Lin Jinhua didn't say much.She didn't tell him that Zhao Kan and Lin Zisu planned their own affairs together. Although my brother has a stable temper, there is no guarantee that he will not be able to help but tear himself apart with Zhao Kan in the future, and then drag him into danger again.
She glanced at Lin Xiyu who was standing at the door and refused to leave, then at Lin Wei who was only breathless after being carried away, put down the curtain, and was about to leave, but the moment she put down the curtain, an inconspicuous car The green-curtained carriage drove over and stopped under the big pagoda tree not far from King Jing's Mansion. The curtain of the carriage was lifted, and Lin Jinhua could just see the people in the carriage.
She blinked her eyes, and gave a surprised cry. Lin Jincheng didn't know what was going on, so she followed her to see, "What's wrong?"
After she finished speaking, she followed her gaze and saw the well-dressed person in the green-draped carriage.The hand that raised the curtain carried the phoenix bracelet.
He gritted his teeth slightly, put down the car curtain and said nothing.
"Is brother okay?"
In the end, Lin Jincheng just sighed and looked at her with a gentle smile: "You are a young grader, but you know a lot."
Lin Jinhua blinked: "During the time when Dad and you were not at home, my mother and I were reading books every day. There are so many things in the book, what is Guan Jujiu, in the river continent, a fair lady, a gentleman is so good .”
"You still read these?"
"That's right, I've read some policy theory, but it doesn't make much sense. For example, there is an article that mentions the water of the monarch's boat and the people. If the water of the people can capsize the boat of the monarch, is there any need for this water to exist?" Lin Jinhua was confused. Dao, but this topic is the topic that will be tested next spring.She remembered that Jiang Qingshu had watched his mother die of pain and illness because others refused to help him, so he wrote with extreme remarks, but instead won the first place, but now that his mother is still alive, he must not be so extreme.
Lin Jincheng thought for a while, then shook his head: "I haven't read the article you mentioned, but..."
He analyzed the events from ancient times to the present in detail, and saw that Lin Jinhua not only didn't feel sleepy, but listened with gusto, and began to speak more vigorously, until the carriage returned to Lin's mansion, he didn't finish speaking.
"Do you understand what I said? There is nothing wrong with Jun Zhoumin Shui, but it is better for you to talk less about these things." He warned before getting off the carriage.The emperor was suspicious. Hearing this, he couldn't help thinking that the Lin family had ulterior motives.
Lin Jinhua bent her eyes: "I understand." After finishing speaking, the two brothers and sisters went to the old lady's yard together. The old lady was also drinking tea and talking here, and she was surprised that Lin Xiyu hadn't been seen all morning.
When the mother-in-law came in from the outside and said that the Lin Jinhua brothers and sisters had come, the eldest lady was still surprised: "They came together?"
The mother-in-law nodded and said in a low voice: "It seems that Miss Seven was not sent to Prince Jing's Mansion as planned."
"What!" The old lady stood up directly.
The mother-in-law nodded hurriedly: "I sent someone to inquire, and said that the third son quietly led Miss Seven out of the mansion early in the morning, and just now came back from the main gate, Miss Seven didn't get on the sedan chair at all."
"Who is that on the sedan chair?" The lady also asked.
Just as we were talking, another person came from the outside, and saw that the old lady and the eldest lady were there, so he hurriedly said: "It's not good, just now there was news from the front that the eldest lady and the fourth lady were all carried to King Jing's mansion in a sedan chair. I went, and the second master is also in King Jing's mansion now."
The old lady felt a little dizzy when she heard the words. It is a good thing that the missing son was found, but the promise to King Jing was not fulfilled, and instead she paid for an extra granddaughter who was available!
The eldest lady was even more confused: "Are you sure that is the eldest lady, not the seventh lady?"
"Yes."
"How is it possible? The third prince personally sent someone to assist Zisu..." The lady paused in the middle of her sentence, and immediately darkened her face as if remembering something: "It must be Lin Zisu who designed Xiyu, she Resent Xiyu for burning her face! This one who killed a thousand swords, this one who killed a thousand swords!" After speaking, he sat down on one side and began to lament the poor daughter.
The old lady was still a little calmer, looked at the old woman and said: "Go and send the people outside, and then go and find out what's going on!"
The mother-in-law hurriedly responded.
Lin Jinhua had expected this to happen a long time ago, but there was nothing unexpected about it. Lin Jincheng's face was slightly gloomy, but he didn't say much.
After sending Lin Jinyu all the way back to Luoxia Garden, she stopped and said, "If you don't want to stay in Lin's house, you can go directly to live in Xu's house after the new year, and it won't be too late to come back when you are going to get married."
Lin Jinhua knew that he was worried about herself, so she just smiled and shook her head: "Both brother and daddy are here, Jinhua likes this place very much."
Lin Jincheng's heart warmed slightly, but seeing her like this, his heart ached even more, and he secretly made up his mind that from now on, the Lin family would never touch her again!
After Lin Jincheng left, Lin Jinhua turned around and went back to the room.
Yang's mother in the main room has cleaned up neatly, but Lin Zisu has only stayed for a day, so many treasures in this room are gone, and the jewelry box is also missing a lot.
"Forget it, I'll just send her off." Lin Jinhua said lightly, seeing that the room had been incensed, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and she sat down on the warm couch, and asked someone to marry a pen and ink, and recited Lin Jincheng's previous remarks about policy theory. After writing down his opinion, he wrote down a prescription and found Mo Feng.
Mo Feng looked at the prescription and looked at her strangely: "Miss, is this medicine prescribed for the concubine Jia?"
Lin Jinhua understood her meaning at a glance when she saw her, sighed with Zhao Huaiyan's ability to train people, and nodded with a smile.
"Mother Yang, bring me my little box," she said.
Yang's mother hurriedly went to get her special box for silver bills. After Lin Jinhua opened it, she counted it, and there were less than 300 taels in total.
She looked at the pile of jewelry boxes on the table, picked out the jewelry that was not commonly used and meaningless, and handed them to Mo Feng: "Take it and pawn it, and then use the money to buy these medicinal materials on my prescription, don't As the Lin family."
"Miss wants to stockpile medicinal materials." She also knows a little about medicinal materials, and after looking at them, the ones she wants to save are all common ones that are not used very much, so there are very few medicinal materials in pharmacies.
Lin Jinhua nodded. She doesn't stockpile these medicinal materials, but some people will. When the disease breaks out, all those infected will have to wait to die.The outbreak of this disease was extremely rapid, and once it was out of control, it would take less than a day to die, so Zhao Qing couldn't be saved back then.
Mother Yang didn't think much about it, but Mo Feng's eyes shrank: "Miss, is the illness of the concubine Jia contagious?"
Lin Jinhua felt more and more that she was smart: "Yes."
"How big will it be?"
"Starting from the palace, everyone that person wants to kill will die, but innocent people will be implicated," she said.
Mo Feng understood what she meant, nodded, turned around and was about to go out.
Lin Jinhua seemed to think of something again: "Wait..." If the Xu family can take the opportunity to make meritorious service, wouldn't it be a step for the emperor to come back?She remembered that her aunt had some pharmacies under her control.
Mo Feng looked at her in surprise, and she immediately turned around and wrote another letter, copied the prescription just now and attached it to her back, and gave it to Mo Feng: "Send the letter to Xu's house in Yuzhou immediately, and ask someone to tell uncle to call him The pharmacy under my hand is quietly buying more medicinal materials, the more the better."
Mo Feng looked at her with more serious eyes: "Miss, do you think you should tell the prince about this?"
"Yes." Lin Jinhua agreed very simply.
Mo Fengben was still a little hesitant, worried that she would feel that her servant was unfaithful, but she didn't expect it to be so straightforward.
Seeing her looking at him hesitantly, Lin Jinhua smiled relievedly: "If he and I were so estranged, I wouldn't ask you to do this matter."
When Mo Feng heard this, his impression of her was only a little clever, but now it seems that this young girl must have hidden great wisdom.
She saluted respectfully and then went out.
Seeing that everything was well arranged, Lin Jinhua began to enjoy the rare and peaceful Chinese New Year with peace of mind.
Winter nights always come quickly, after dinner, Luoxia Court locked and turned off the lights, even the eldest lady who wanted to come to make trouble was turned away, and had to leave angrily.
In the night, two figures quickly passed through the already quiet wide street, only a few barks from time to time indicated that someone had passed by here.
In the residence of the Nine Princes.
Wei Yunyi covered her mouth and coughed lightly, looking at the concubine Jia who was leaning on the side of the warm couch who had lost a lot of weight, she said distressedly: "Mother, concubine, drink some ginseng soup, it will give you some strength."
Concubine Jia gently shook her head, took her hand and patted it: "Thank you for your hard work, you are sick and you still want to take care of me."
"It's not hard, it's Yun Yi's duty to take care of mother and concubine." Wei Yunyi smiled calmly.
When Zhao Qing stood outside the bead curtain and watched this scene, his eyes softened a lot, but it was a pity that Yun Yi still couldn't untie the knot in her heart.
"My lord." A servant girl saw him and hurriedly saluted him.
Joy appeared in Wei Yunyi's eyes, and he quickly got up to salute him. Although his attitude was respectful, there was still admiration in his eyes, but they were very unfamiliar.
Zhao Qing glanced at her, helped her to sit down lightly, and then looked at Concubine Jia: "Mother Concubine, are you better?"
"The Empress asked Imperial Physician Liu to take care of her in person, and she took the medicine again, so she will be better." After she finished speaking, she began to cough again.
Zhao Qing clenched his hands tightly, and finally couldn't help but said: "I'm going to look for Brother Dahuang..."
"Why do you implicate him." Concubine Jia pulled him back: "No one is willing to help us except Huaiyan. If you implicate him, what will you do in the future?"
"But……"
"My concubine's life is ruined. She should have gone 20 years ago. Being able to live up to now has already delayed the blessing of Concubine Yin. Now she is alone in the ground, maybe she is lonely, and I should go to accompany her." When Concubine Jia talked about Zhao Huaiyan's biological mother, Concubine Yin, her eyes were full of light. Recalling those days, they had just entered the palace, and they were still green and green. In a blink of an eye, she was old, and the emperor even looked at her. He didn't want to look at her again.
Zhao Qing's face was tense, and he didn't make a sound, then suddenly heard a soft sound outside the room, and then the sound of a guard drawing a knife.
He stepped out immediately, opened the door, and a man wrapped in a black cloak and a masked woman were surrounded by guards in the yard.
He was startled, then heard her say: "Does the Ninth Prince want to issue an order to evict guests?"
"It's you." Hearing her voice, Zhao Qing unconsciously expressed a little joy.
Lin Jinhua smiled, but still did not take off her hat.
Zhao Qing understood, and yelled at the surroundings in a cold voice: "Everyone retreats outside the courtyard, and you are not allowed to come in without my prince's order!"
Everyone stepped back.
Seeing this, Lin Jinhua took off her veil and looked at him apologetically, "It's late, let someone decoct the medicine immediately." After speaking, Mo Xue handed over a medicine bag.
Zhao Qing immediately ordered someone to do it, and then welcomed her into the house.
In the room, Wei Yunyi saw Zhao Qing walking beside her, looked at his clear eyes, suddenly felt a sense of relief, stepped forward and only pulled Lin Jinhua and said, "Long time no see you."
"Last time I almost hurt my side concubine, I have no face to see you, please don't take offense at my side concubine." Lin Jinhua said while grabbing her pulse.The previous symptoms not only did not alleviate, but also aggravated.
Wei Yunyi withdrew his hand lightly, only looked at her with a smile: "Let's take a look at Concubine Mother first."
Lin Jinhua nodded, she didn't have much time.
Seeing that Concubine Jia's complexion was not good, she quickly checked her pulse and frowned slightly.Even if she knows medicine, she doesn't know acupuncture.She paused, looked at Zhao Qing and said, "Murong's family's acupuncture has always been the best in the world."
"But Mr. Murong has disappeared." Wei Yunyi worried.
"I know where to find him, but if you find him, you must help him." She looked at Zhao Qing.Now that Murong Yu sees Murong Chen, he must know about Xiong Shuli. With his temperament, he is probably squatting outside Xiong's mansion waiting for revenge, but he is a frail scholar, and he will definitely not be able to kill the powerful Xiong Shuli.
Zhao Qing knew about this, but he hadn't done anything for a long time except to help Zhao Huaiyan.
He looked at Lin Jinhua and frowned slightly: "Is this the only way?"
"The acupuncture skills of Imperial Physician Liu outside must be good, but will he help..." Lin Jinhua knew that Imperial Physician Liu belonged to the Empress, and if he wanted to heal his concubine, he would have done it long ago.
Zhao Qing took a deep look at Lin Jinhua, and narrowed her eyes suspiciously: "I found that you have a purpose in everything you do."
Wei Yunyi thought that Lin Jinhua would be angry, so she hurriedly went to see Zhao Qing: "Ninth Prince, you..."
"I was born for my purpose, and I can die for my purpose." She put up her sleeves for Concubine Jia, then stood up and looked at him, who was half a head taller than herself, with a slight smile: "The Ninth Prince doesn't care what he wants." I don't want to help this, I will try my best to save the concubine Jia, but my ability is limited, the Ninth Prince should know what to do, Murong Chen is now in Murong's ancestral house, and it is likely that he is worried about Miss Murong's matter." After all, he also Regardless of Zhao Qing, she just looked at Jia Concubine and smiled slightly: "Your Majesty's condition is not serious yet, you should drink the decocted medicine while it's hot, five times a day. Take the medicine well and you'll be fine."
Concubine Jia knew that she was comforting herself, and her face was gentle, not pretending at all, and she was not only moved with emotion for her generosity and the depth of the city.But how did a teenage girl come to such a deep city?
She didn't know that Lin Jinhuai was already a wounded and riddled person. These tricks were nothing but their tricks learned in her previous life.
Lin Jinhua left very quickly, without delay, Mo Xue hugged her and went out.
Zhao Qing looked at her back, pursed slightly, and looked back at Wei Yunyi: "I'm going out of the house, you take good care of the concubine mother."
"My concubine understands."
Zhao Qing didn't say any more, and immediately rode his horse and headed towards Murong's ancestral house.
Lin Jinhua and Mo Xue hid in the big tree outside the Ninth Prince's Mansion, and they were relieved to see Zhao Qing leaving on horseback.
Mo Xue was a little puzzled: "Miss, why bother with so many nosy things?" In her opinion, the life and death of the Murong family has nothing to do with the Lin family or the palace.
Lin Jinhua smiled slightly: "There are no useless chess pieces, only people who can't play chess." Even she herself is a chess piece on her own chessboard, useless?nonexistent.
In the next few days, the capital was filled with joy on the surface, and even Prince Jing's Mansion became quiet. As for what was going on inside, no one knew.
Only the eldest son of the Lin family was in a gloomy mood. After all, it was the day when Lin Zisu returned home on the sixth day of the lunar new year, and Lin Xiyu also came back as a concubine.
The eldest lady seemed to agree that Lin Xiyu became King Jing's side concubine instead of a concubine, but Zhao Kan didn't return to the mansion these days, and stayed in the brothel all the time, ignoring these things at all.
On the day of returning home, Concubine De, for the sake of the marriage bestowed by the emperor, let the people of Prince Jing's Mansion give Lin Zisu some face, and the people of Prince Jing's Mansion also knew the grievances between Concubine Zhao Kande and the third wife of the Lin family, so they were very happy Help Lin Zisu.
It stands to reason that when the princess returns home, the whole family will come to welcome her.
Lin Luzhi and the old lady stood at the front and waited, while Lin Jinhua stood behind.
Looking at the carriage coming from Prince Jing's Mansion from afar, the magnificent carriage and the servants around him looked pretty good, but before Lin Zisu came over, Lin Xiyu who was in the carriage behind rushed out and rushed to the eldest lady In his arms, he called "Mother" aggrievedly.
The eldest lady was so distressed, she pulled her aside and asked, "I have sent a lot of news to Prince Jing's mansion these days, why don't you want to see me?"
Lin Xiyu hated it when she mentioned this: "The people in King Jing's Mansion don't want to see us. They didn't tell me the news you passed on."
"how come……"
"Isn't it all about Lin Zisu? My reputation has been ruined, and I have been shamelessly occupying the position of Princess Jing, embarrassing the prince, and embarrassing the Lin family!" Lin Xiyu's voice was not low. Su listened.
The people at the door heard it all, but they didn't make a sound.
Lin Zisu's complexion was slightly pale, and she got out of the carriage with airs on her shoulders, but still stuck her neck proudly.She had a thick layer of makeup on her face. If it wasn't for the hideous scar on her face, she would still be pretty, but she lacked the aura she used to have, making her look much vulgar. A little more boring.
Everyone saluted, she saw Lin Xiyu still holding the eldest lady and stood aside to salute, she only secretly looked coldly, and smiled at everyone: "We are all a family, so there is no need to be too polite." Lin Jinhua, in a simple rouge-colored long dress and a plain cloak outside, is already a beautiful woman without makeup, especially when she looks at herself with a faint smile in her eyes.
She clenched her teeth tightly. Is she laughing at herself?
Her eyes flickered slightly, and she looked at Lin Jinhua with a smile: "Seventh sister, the prince mentioned it last time, saying that I am too boring to be alone in the mansion, and I want to invite you to stay with me for a few days, what do you want?"
Lin Jinhua smiled: "Didn't Big Sister stay with Fourth Sister all day?"
Lin Xiyu became angry as soon as she heard this, and snorted softly: "The concubine who is so high up, how can I still have my elder sister in her eyes?"
Lin Luzhi glanced at the two of them and coughed lightly: "The tea is ready in the house, let's go into the house."
Lin Zisu smiled awkwardly, and secretly clenched her palms.
Lin Xiyu entered the mansion ahead of her and took the eldest lady back. The old lady still cared about the face of the third prince's mansion, but said to Lin Zisu: "Princess, please go to my courtyard and sit down."
"En." Lin Zisu responded, looked at Lin Luzhi as he left, and said, "Third Uncle knows that Father is in King Jing's Mansion?"
"Know……"
"Since that's the case, please trouble third uncle to bring him back to take good care of him. After all, he is my concubine's father, your elder brother, so it's not good for me to live in King Jing's Mansion forever." , but she is at least Princess Jing. Even if Lin Luzhi is a general, he still has to respect himself a little bit in terms of etiquette.
After she finished speaking, Lin Luzhi frowned: "My minister..."
"Father lives in the son-in-law's house. It's only right and proper. Why does the fourth sister think it's wrong?" Lin Jinhua said immediately.
Lin Luzhi didn't speak for the first time.
The old lady snorted softly: "There is no reason to always live in King Jing's Mansion." After finishing speaking, she looked at Lin Luzhi: "You go to King Jing's Mansion to bring him back now, don't make any mistakes."
Lin Zisu's hands in the sleeves were clenched secretly, her eyes were a little bit tangled, but more ruthless.
Lin Luzhi would not go against the old lady's wishes, so he wanted to bow his hands, but was stopped by Lin Jinhua.
She looked at Lin Zisu's clenched palms secretly, there must be something wrong with it, she must have other purposes in trying to trick her father.
"Father, why should you be in such a hurry? I heard that the second uncle was resting at Prince Jing's Mansion because he was ill. If he had to pick him up today, he would have to choose two gentle horses to pull the cart. How's that?" Lin Jinhua smiled sensiblely.
Both the old lady and Lin Luzhi thought it was reasonable, but they were not in a hurry to go.
Lin Zisu held back the anger in her heart, looked at Lin Jinhua with a smile, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly: "Seventh sister is really the smartest person I have ever met, but smart people have a problem, that is, they are too confident and become conceited, and they will He lifted a rock and shot himself in the foot."
Lin Jincheng couldn't listen anymore, so he stepped forward to stand in front of Lin Jinhua: "Princess, please."
Lin Zisu glanced at him lightly, only smiled vaguely, turned her head and went in.
The old lady squinted at Lin Jinhua, then looked at Lin Luzhi, and said coldly: "My children are too used to it, and they will easily cause trouble in the future. Today, Zisu sees that she is a younger sister, so don't care about her. It's no wonder I didn't remind you that she got killed when she talked to the nobleman like this later."
"My son understands."
"Now that you understand it, you have to teach it. She is about to get married, and she has to learn to manage the accounts at home, so stay in the room and copy the accounts. After copying [-] copies, she will leave Luoxia Garden." The old lady said coldly. Well, he gave Lin Jinhua a cold look before turning around and leaving.
After they left, Lin Jincheng looked at Lin Luzhi: "Father..."
"I understand for my father." He sighed slightly: "You all go back to the yard first, and for my father, go pick up your second uncle."
Lin Jincheng wanted to continue talking, but was secretly held back by Lin Jinhua.
After Lin Luzhi left, she said in a low voice: "It's just copying the accounts, it's a trivial matter. My brother will lead someone to follow father quietly after a while, I'm worried about ghosts."
"You said that Zisu..."
"She's crazy now. Don't use any means to achieve her goal. Didn't my brother see it?" Lin Jinhua looked at his solemn expression and said.
Lin Jincheng thought for a while, then frowned slightly: "And the second uncle can't come back either. Don't worry, I will handle this matter."
Seeing him, Lin Jinhua also thought of this, and she was really relieved.After he left, he turned around and went back to Luoxia Garden.
Not long after going back, the old lady asked someone to bring the account books, a total of [-] books, full of dust.
Mo Feng brought the soup, glanced at it, and said: "My lord knows someone who is good at imitating handwriting, do you need it, miss?"
The corners of Lin Jinhua's mouth slightly curled up, looked at A Bao who was busy cleaning, and said with a smile, "Move it and burn it."
"what?"
"Burn." Lin Jinhua said seriously again.The old lady said that she didn't know the rules, so why should she behave like those ordinary ladies.
Ah Bao checked again, and seeing that she was not joking, he hurriedly carried her out to be burned.
Lin Jinhua pushed open the window, looked at the steaming smoke in the yard, and then looked at Yang's mother on the side: "I asked you to find your man, where is he?"
"I've been waiting in the corner room of the front yard. You've been busy these few days, and the slaves haven't bothered you." Mama Yang hurriedly said. She thought Lin Jinhua was just talking casually before, but if she hasn't seen her for a few days, she must have forgotten it , I don't know how to remember.
"Go and call someone, I have something to say." She said.
"Yes." Mother Yang was overjoyed and hurried down.
After she left, Lin Jinhua looked at Mo Xue who had been silent all this time, and smiled slightly: "I'm going out of the house tonight."
"Where do you want to go, miss?"
"I haven't seen Master Huijue for a long time. I need to ask him for help." She asked Huijue to lean on Mrs. Hou. This guy is good. He forgot her when he hugged Mrs. Hou's thigh. She had to make him sober. .
Mo Xue's eyes flickered, and she nodded: "Your servant understands, let's go down and make arrangements."
"Yes." Lin Jinhua nodded.Sure enough, there is a girl who knows kung fu and is smart, and it is indeed much easier to use.
Not long after, Mama Yang led someone over. It was a crippled man with bright eyes. After Xu had been repeatedly told by Mama Yang, he didn't dare to look around when he entered the flower hall, so he just knelt on the ground to salute: "The servant Zhu Wucai has met Miss, Miss Wanfu."
Lin Jinhua didn't give him any warning, but only smiled and asked him to stand up. Seeing that he was still respectful, she said, "What did you do with the second lady in the shop before?"
"The slave is the shopkeeper." He hurriedly bowed and laughed.
Lin Jinhua nodded: "I have four or five shops, two silk shops, one pawnshop, and two restaurants, which one do you want to take care of?"
When Zhu Wucai heard this, his eyeballs twitched, and he hurriedly said: "I want to ask Miss, how are these shops doing?"
"I haven't seen a shop hand over money for three years, what do you think?" Lin Jinhua said.
When Zhu Wucai heard this, he immediately said: "I think, if I let my servant go to visit quietly first, to see if there are any troublemakers in the few shops, after three years, no matter how poor the management is, it is impossible to fail."
Seeing that he still had some ideas, Lin Jinhua nodded, "In that case, let's go to these five shops and give me an answer in ten days, how about it?"
"Three days is enough. I don't know, Miss. I, Zhu Wucai, know a lot of people in the capital. Although I don't know all the high-ranking officials and dignitaries like Miss, I have acquaintances with traffickers and pawns, so it is easy to find out." Zhu Wucai grinned hurriedly.
Lin Jinhua leaned forward slightly to look at him: "Do you know that I don't like people who talk big?"
Mother Yang's complexion also turned pale. Once the young lady is serious, she will be really dangerous.
Zhu Wucai was not stupid, he quickly knelt down on the ground: "Miss, please don't worry, this servant has absolutely no intention of perfunctory you."
"Okay, give me the result within three days. If you report indiscriminately, you will know what the punishment is, but if you do well, this shop will make you the shopkeeper." Lin Jinhua knew he was slippery, but he was smart. In this case, it is natural that a smart person is the most important thing, and with Mama Yang around, she is a smart person and won't be out of control.
When Zhu Wucai heard this, he quickly kowtowed his head happily, and made a big promise, and Lin Jinhua sent him away.
"Mama Yang, let's go and see her off." Lin Jinhua looked at Mama Yang who was already standing with her feet facing out.
Yang's mother nodded immediately, she was afraid that her man would float out and talk nonsense, so she had to go out quickly to suppress him.
After she left, the room fell silent.
Lin Jinhua checked that the tea in the cup was finished, and got up to pour the tea. Before the tea was poured, there was a noise outside.
Ah Bao hurried in and said in a low voice: "Miss, the eldest lady and the eldest lady have come, saying that the girls in our courtyard stole the eldest lady's things, and they are beating and scolding right now."
"It's this trick again." When Lin Jinhua set fire to the account books, she knew that the Da Furen's people in the yard would go to report the news, and the Da Furen and Lin Xiyu together would definitely come to find him, but not for revenge, but for herself. He wanted to pull himself and them to deal with Lin Zisu.After all, Lin Xiyu is now Zhao Kan's person, and she is the eldest sister, the best face, how could she not want to climb up?
She slowly took a sip of the tea in the cup. Seeing this, Ah Bao thought he hadn't spoken clearly, and said timidly, "Miss, outside..."
"Not in a hurry." They wanted to give themselves a blow, but she still didn't take the blow.After drinking the tea slowly, the noise outside became quieter.
Lin Xiyu asked her maid to stop, looked at the maid who was crying loudly on the ground, and looked at the eldest lady strangely: "Mother, isn't Lin Jinhua really scared by us?"
"It's not like..." The lady knew that Lin Jinhua's character was very weird, and since she hadn't moved for so long, she was probably planning something.
Sure enough, as soon as she finished thinking, A Bao came out with a stick as thick as her arm, pointed at the maid beside Lin Xiyu who had just done it, and shouted: "Bold and unreasonable slave, dare to burn the account book sent by the old lady, I will beat you!" I'll kill you!" After saying that, he threw himself tremblingly with a stick in his hand.
Lin Xiyu and the eldest lady hurriedly took half a step back in fright, only to find that Lin Jinzheng was standing at the door with her arms crossed, looking at them both.
The eldest lady knew that her trick had been seen through, she cast a deep look at the trembling A Bao: "Okay, it's none of your business here, go down."
Ah Bao hurriedly turned her head to look at Lin Jinhua, but she saw Lin Jinhua saying quietly: "Maybe Auntie hasn't figured out what to say, why don't you go back and have a rest first."
"You—!" Lin Xiyu pointed at her, and Lin Jinhua just turned around and wanted to go back to the house.
Mo Feng hurried over from outside, ignored Lin Xiyu's mother and son, walked directly to her side and said in a low voice, "Lin Wei is dead."
Lin Jinhua paused slightly: "How did you die?"
"The master met an assassin on the way back to pick him up, and his head was chopped off." Mo Feng frowned, she knew how much this was a blow to the old lady, and she would definitely retaliate against the blow after the master and the three Fang body!
Lin Jinhua gritted her teeth: "Then father and brother..."
"It's the fault here, those assassins didn't hurt the master and the eldest son." Mo Feng said.
Lin Jinhua suddenly remembered the look in Lin Zisu's eyes when she asked her father to pick up Lin Wei when she entered the door. There was a trace of entanglement, but more of a heartless look.
"She's so ruthless!" Lin Jinhua said in a low voice, turned to look at the eldest lady and Lin Xiyu who were sticking their ears to this side, and tried to calm down her mood: "Auntie, sister, please come inside!"
