Chapter 89 His Intention
Chapter 89 His Intention
After leaving the gate of the palace, Tao Moucai stopped Lin Jincheng, looked at the woman he was holding in his arms, and looked at her closed eyes, still feeling unwilling.
Seeing this, Wang Yushi stepped forward and sighed softly, his voice was also a bit vicissitudes: "Young Master Tao, the Wang family is really sorry for you."
Lin Jincheng remained silent, and Tao Mou also designed Ru Yan, he didn't think Tao Mou was innocent.
Tao Mou only looked at Wang Ruyan wholeheartedly, then gritted his teeth: "I am also to blame for Ruyan's death today."
"This is all her choice." Wang Yushi sighed again.
But the more he said this, the more unwilling Tao Mou was, why!Why did Ru Yan willingly die for Lin Jincheng? Is she really so unwilling to marry herself? Is she really so inferior to Lin Jincheng?
He closed his eyes heavily, suppressed the hatred in his heart, looked at Wang Yushi in a blink of an eye, and said: "Although I can't marry Ruyan, I will always treat Ruyan as my own sister, and let people worship the ever-burning lantern in Changle Temple."
"Thank you." Wang Yushi was so sad now that he didn't have the energy to tell whether he was sincere or not.
Lin Jincheng didn't dare to bother Wang Yushi any more, so he endured the pain in his heart, carried Wang Ruyan into the carriage on one side, and said in a deep voice: "Go back to the Lin Mansion." After returning to the emperor's imperial decree, Ruyan will be his wife, so the funeral ceremony It must also be done in the Lin Mansion.
Wang Yushi said goodbye to Tao Mou and got into the carriage.
After the carriage left, Tao Shangshu came forward, and said coldly: "They really don't think much of my Tao family, but anyway, since Wang Ruyan is dead, the Tao family doesn't have to worry about losing face. After finishing speaking, he glanced at Tao Mou and said, "You don't have to stay in the capital anymore, just pack up and leave for the post tomorrow."
Tao Mou clenched his fists tightly in his sleeves and made no sound.
At this time, Lin Jincheng led his people all the way back to the Lin Mansion, but Lin Duan was nowhere to be seen, and everyone else in the Lin family was also dead, except for a few old servants, everyone else had also run away, looking extremely desolate.
Not long after he got off the carriage, the imperial decree from the palace also came, so Lin Jincheng had no choice but to put Wang Ruyan aside, but when he was about to put him down, he suddenly heard a cry, and someone grabbed his sleeve .
The servants were shocked when they saw it, even Wang Yushi was also shocked: "Ru Yan, she..."
Lin Jincheng looked at the person in front of him tenderly with eyes full of hope, and his voice trembled slightly: "Yan'er, are you still alive?"
Seeing this, the father-in-law who delivered the decree smiled: "Eunuch An mistakenly mistook strong wine for poisonous wine, but the emperor said, since Miss Wang died once, forget it, General Lin, Miss Wang , get up and take orders."
Lin Jincheng was overjoyed when he heard this, and Wang Ruyan also slowly opened her eyes, her face was blushing, but it was probably not strong alcohol, but a medicine that made people faint temporarily.
"Follow the sky, the emperor's edict said..."
Lin Jincheng only felt his head buzzing, and his heart was full of joy. He only knew that the imperial decree was a marriage grant, and he couldn't hear or see anything else, as long as there was someone in front of him.
When Lin Jinhua heard the news, Jing Zhaoyin said it casually when he hurried back.
He came to the prison door in person, and said with a smile: "Miss Lin, the matter has been investigated, you are no longer suspected, you can go home."
Lin Jinhua breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that, it would be nice if she could go out.
"Thank you, Mr. Zhang."
"It's my duty." Mr. Zhang looked at her cell, which was decorated like a women's boudoir. Thinking about how respectful all his servants were to her, if this continues, the government will be punished. She's been kind to people.
Lin Jinhua smiled, looked at the leading yamen servant Bai Da, and said with a smile: "You are not in good health, you need to bask in the sun more and be less angry."
Upon hearing this, Bai Da nodded gratefully: "Thank you, Ms. Lin, for your concern."
"It's fate to meet...and..." She looked at the huddled man next door, and said with a smile: "He is my savior after all, please take care of him before he is sentenced."
"Miss Lin, don't worry, I will take care of you, Bai Da." Bai Da patted his chest in response.
Seeing this, Master Zhang knew that Lin Jinhua could not stay here any longer, so he hurriedly said, "Master Xu's family is waiting outside, Miss Lin please."
Lin Jinhua nodded when she heard this, and then walked away.
When she left, she could catch a glimpse of the pair of dark eyes staring at her from the corner of the corner of her eye, but there was only so much she could do.
Not far from the prison, I saw Xu Zhaozhao who was waiting anxiously.
Seeing Lin Jinhua from afar, Xu Zhaozhao jumped up and hugged her regardless of Mrs. Xu's obstruction, and then looked her up and down: "Sister Jinhua has lost weight."
"Just go back and rest for a few days."
"Then you have to take a good rest. Mother is planning to go back to her mother's house. The scenery there is beautiful. Let's go for a walk." Xu Zhaozhao has already made up his mind.
Lin Jinhua didn't refuse when she heard the words, she might as well go out for a walk.
After finishing speaking, the Xu family also gathered around, Mrs. Xu's eyes were slightly red, she pulled her affectionately and said: "Let's go back first, the prince is talking to your uncle in Xu's mansion, and we will have dinner together later."
Lin Jinhua blinked, Zhao Huaiyan was also there, what could he say to his uncle?Uncle is just a sacrificial drink, so could it be possible to talk about academics?
Xu Chengqing also smiled and said: "There is another happy event today. Jincheng was given a marriage by the emperor. Just in time for you to come out of prison, I want to bring him and the Wang family together, and discuss the dowry by the way."
Xu Zhaozhao pursed his mouth when he heard this, "I don't know why my uncle is still in the country and won't come back. If he doesn't come when Cousin Cheng gets married, I won't talk to him anymore."
Lin Jinhua and Xu Chengqing looked at each other. Only they and Zhao Huaiyan knew about their father going to the border. It seemed that his father was coming back as soon as possible.
Mrs. Xu also felt strange, but seeing the way Lin Jinhua and Xu Chengqing looked at each other, she knew in her heart that there must be other plans, so she just pulled Xu Zhaozhao and Lin Jinhua with a smile and said, "Okay, you all go back and clean up, see you later Don't be rude to the Wang family."
"Yes!" Xu Zhaozhao was happy when he heard this, and quickly agreed.
Before leaving, Lin Jinhua went to see the son-in-law, she was still the same, Duanhui didn't seem to think about it, but Mrs. Ling was reasonable and allowed her to go back.
Zhao Huaiyan specially asked Mo Xue to pick him up in his big, soft carriage. The spacious carriage didn’t feel crowded when Xu’s family sat down. On the way back, Xu Zhaozhao chattered all the way. unhappy.
Soon after arriving at Xu's mansion, Lin Jinhua and Xu Zhaozhao separated and went to wash up separately.
In the small courtyard, Mo Xue prepared hot water early, and Ah Bao even picked a lot of fresh flower petals and put them in the bathtub, the fresh fragrance overflowed.
Ah Bao helped her into the bathtub after taking off her clothes on one side, sprinkled a handful of flower petals, and said with a smile: "Miss, do you like the fragrance of flowers?"
"It smells better than incense." The fragrance of flowers is more pure, whether there are other impurities in it, you can smell it immediately, and it is safe.
Only then did A Bao smile shyly: "The servant will pick more in the future."
Mo Xue came in from the outside with a bath towel in her hands. Hearing this, she just followed along with a smile and said, "A Bao is now a master at tending flowers and plants."
"My sister laughed at the servant girl. How can the servant girl be considered a master? I heard that there is a Yinxiang Building in the capital, which specializes in selling spices and rouge made from these flowers, as well as scented tea. There are many kinds of flowers. Unlike the servant girl, who knows how to dry flowers and pick flower petals, that's all. "A Bao turned his head and scooped up some hot water again.
Lin Jinhua's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she asked, "Whose shop is this Yinxiang Building?"
"Whose shop..." Ah Bao thought about it for a while, then frowned and said: "The shopkeeper seems to be named An, but he doesn't show up very much, and a shopkeeper named Zhang is helping to take care of it. I heard that Princess Pingxi often goes to buy scented tea, maybe it's the shop of Prince Pingxi's mansion?"
Mo Xue looked at Lin Jinhua, Lin Jinhua just blinked and smiled: "Maybe." After speaking, she got up.
Mo Xue hurriedly handed over the bath towel, and then took a dry towel to wipe her black hair on the other end.
Mo Feng came in from the outside, holding the brocade box in his hand, saw Lin Jinhua, and smiled slightly: "Miss, this is from the prince." After speaking, he opened the brocade box.
From what Lin Jinhua could see, it was a goose-yellow silk dress, paired with a box of suet jade and citrine jewelry.
Lin Jinhua was satisfied and laughed after watching it. Today's protagonists are her elder brother and Wang Ruyan, and she has no reason to steal their limelight by wearing bright red and green clothes.
Soon, the maids helped her change into the clothes, which fit unexpectedly, and also made her whole body softer and sweeter. On both sides of Chaoyun's bun, there was a bead flower inlaid with yellow crystals, Adding two tassel hairpins, the former cold and mighty Miss Lin seems to have suddenly become the girl next door.
Ah Bao couldn't help laughing and said, "Miss looks so cute."
Lin Jinhua's face twitched slightly, cute, are you sure you're not talking about Zhao Zhao?
But she also changed into her clothes, and she didn't bother to change them anymore. Looking at herself in the bronze mirror, if her face hadn't become thinner and made her facial features clearer, she would really look very young.
After changing his clothes and going out, he saw that the servants of Xu's mansion were already busy. A row of people carried food and carefully went to the front yard. The front yard was brightly lit, as if a wedding was about to take place.
Lin Jinhua had just stepped into the door of the front yard, when she saw a brightly lit figure at the end of the corridor, a crimson figure was standing faintly with his back facing him, talking to someone, some of the blue hair was tied up with a jade crown, and the rest As the breeze blew past, the crimson clothes floated gently with the blue hair, as if time had frozen. Thinking of his gentle appearance that day, Lin Jinhua felt a little startled...
Zhao Huaiyan also seemed to sense her coming, turned slightly sideways, and looked at her at the door, dressed in goose yellow clothes, like a girl next door who never knew the pain and struggle, her eyes softened instantly: "Come here." After that, He must take her away from the disputes here, and let her be a carefree little girl for the rest of her life.
The moment Lin Jinhua met his phoenix eyes, it was as if a warm breeze was blowing around her, making her laugh unconsciously.
Xu Zhaozhao came in from the back, seeing this scene, his eyes were staring: "Sister Jinhua and His Highness King Ning are really a perfect match."
When Lin Jinhua heard the voice, she came back to her senses, her face was slightly hot, but she found that Zhao Huaiyan had already walked towards her.
Zhao Huaiyan saw the sweat dripping from her forehead, and was a little worried: "Jinhua, what's wrong?"
"It's okay." It's not all your fault, why is it so beautiful and gentle.
Zhao Huaiyan was a little puzzled, but still said softly: "You are very beautiful today."
Lin Jinhua's face became hotter, and little evil thoughts popped up in her heart one after another, but no, there are still more than four months before her wedding, she has to hold back and be a reserved person.
She went to see Xu Zhaozhao and said, "Is the elder brother here?"
"It's almost there..." Xu Zhaozhao had just finished speaking when he heard a summons from the maid, and then saw Xu Chengqing coming forward, with Wang Yushi and Mrs. Wang beside him.Wang Ruyan stayed at home to rest because she was unwell, but Lin Jinhua didn't think much about it, she just thought about seeing her again when she had time.
Soon, the dinner began, and Lin Jinhua was arranged to sit at Zhao Huaiyan's lower head, whether it was on purpose or not, during which Zhao Huaiyan filled her small bowl with vegetables.
Xu Zhaozhao is still very lively because of his young age, he has no taboos, he can say everything, and it is very lively.
After the dinner, Mrs. Xu led Xu Zhaozhao and Lin Jinhua to leave in advance.
When leaving, Lin Jinhua saw Zhao Huaiyan calmly discussing things with his uncle, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised. Not all of his discussions with people in private were cold, so how did the rumors that he was withdrawn come out?
But what she didn't know was that apart from Lin Jinhua's relatives, Zhao Huaiyan was indeed indifferent to everyone else.
After the night passed, Lin Jinhua couldn't sleep, thinking over and over again about Zhao Huaiyan, how could she have such no impression of him in her previous life?What made him like him in his previous life, until he was reborn, this kind of liking still made him desperate to find him.
She couldn't figure it out, really couldn't figure it out, but she was sure that she really fell in love with him.
At daybreak, she got up, and today she was going back to her natal home with Mrs. Xu.
After dressing up, Mo Xue brought breakfast from outside, blue and white porridge and two side dishes.
"Miss, I want to ask for two days' leave today. I'm sick, so I want to go back and see." A Bao said timidly from the side.
Lin Jinhua drank the last sip of porridge, rinsed her mouth, and smiled, "Go ahead, but are you short of money? I'll ask someone to bring it to you."
A Bao hurriedly shook his head happily: "Miss is generous, the slaves have saved a lot of money, that's enough."
"I remember that your natal family is not in the capital, so I asked Mo Xue to prepare a carriage for you and take you out of the city." Lin Jinhua bent her eyes and smiled, and glanced at Mo Xue by the way.They were worried about finding a legitimate reason to go out of the city. Madam Yan dared to threaten Cai'er's life before, so she must let her know that not everyone in her family can move!
Abao was overjoyed and hurriedly knelt down to salute, after all her natal home was really far away.
After breakfast, it's time to head out.
Lin Jinhua went out of the mansion with Mrs. Xu, and found that the carriage of Prince Ning's mansion was parked firmly at the gate of Xu's mansion.
She was a little surprised, and Mrs. Xu smiled on the side: "My lord said, I just have an errand to do, so let's drop by."
Lin Jinhua didn't understand what Mrs. Xu meant, and Huaiyan wanted to go together on purpose.But anyway, the capital city has not been peaceful for the past few days, who knows what will happen on the way, it will be safer with him.
After making up her mind, Lin Jinhua nodded.
Because Xu Chengqing was on duty, it was inconvenient to follow, so he only told Xu Zhaozhao: "You can protect Jinhua, or I won't let you go."
"Don't worry, with me here, no one can bully Sister Jinhua!" Xu Zhaozhao vowed.
Lin Jinhua looked at her bulging bun face, and felt sweet in her heart.
Zhao Huaiyan looked at him with Xu's family through the curtain of the car, and a smile appeared in his eyes unconsciously.He never knew that there are really family members who can be so close. There is no suspicion between brothers and sisters, parents and uncles, only trust and love.In the palace, he also believed that since his mother and concubine were taken by his father...
He frowned slightly, forcing himself not to think about it anymore, but the clenched head on his lap betrayed his current mood.
Gao Tian could feel the cold air coming from the carriage. Looking at the bustling and warm Xu family, he felt only distressed and helpless. How did the master come here for so many years? He knew clearly, and hoped that after marrying Miss Lin, this Everything can change.
When he was thinking, there was a sound of hoofbeats, and Gao Zhi looked around, who else could it be if it was King Jing who hadn't seen him for a long time, but I heard that last time he took away the 'corpse' of Jiacai...
"His Royal Highness King Jing." Gao Zhi hurriedly saluted.
Zhao Kan only looked at the carriage, and said with a light smile, "Brother Emperor, where are you going?"
Zhao Huaiyan didn't show her face, and said indifferently: "What's the matter?"
"Small things..."
"You don't need to find me for small things." Zhao Huaiyan directly refused.
Zhao Kan looked at the people standing at the gate of the Xu Mansion, his eyes flickered, and he smiled, "I have something to take Miss Lin back to assist in the investigation..."
Lin Jinhua frowned slightly when she heard this.
But as soon as his words fell, Zhao Huaiyan said coldly: "The matter of Gu worms, this king has already found out that it is related to you, and the evidence has been presented to the palace early today. If the emperor has time, why not go to the palace to face the saint now?" good."
"You—!" Zhao Kan didn't expect that he would threaten himself with this matter, and he gritted his teeth: "Brother Dahuang is really good!"
"You are too stupid." After Zhao Huaiyan finished speaking calmly, she glanced at Gao Tien, Gao Tien understood, and then walked up to Mrs. Xu and said: "It's late, Madam and the two young ladies should start their journey now."
Mrs. Xu nodded when she saw him like this, and went to Zhao Kan to greet her, and then said: "His Royal Highness King Jing wants to take someone away, and there must be a valid reason. The niece who came out of the cabinet was taken away by the prince for no reason, right?"
Zhao Kan looked at the calm Mrs. Xu, and smiled instead of anger: "In that case, then I will give you one..."
"Great!"
Zhao Huaiyan's icy voice came, and Gao Zhi quickly responded, stepped forward and bowed his hands to Zhao Kan: "This subordinate is ordered by His Highness King Ning to ask His Highness King Jing to assist in investigating the Gu worm in the capital."
Zhao Kan saw that he was not at all afraid of his high talent, his complexion was slightly green, and he knew that Zhao Huaiyan was determined not to let him take Lin Jinhua away today, so he only gave a light snort, and then glanced at Lin Jinhua, watching her look at him indifferently eyes, the corners of the mouth are raised high, don't worry, anyway, sooner or later you will be my Zhao Kan's!
After speaking, he tightened his reins and turned his head away.
Zhao Huaiyan raised her eyes lightly when she heard the sound of horseshoes leaving.The next person to deal with is a respectable person...
Only then was Lin Jinhua able to get into the carriage, and when she was leaving, she deliberately glanced at Mo Yue and Peanut who were hiding in the corner, and seeing them nodding solemnly to her, she put down the curtain in peace.
When she leaves Beijing with great fanfare, those people who are ready to move will definitely make some moves, and Lin Duan is about to return to Beijing. When she knows that she is not there, she will definitely take it lightly. As long as she finds out his purpose and the people behind him, it is His time of death!
Xu Zhaozhao saw that Lin Jinhua was in a daze, and thought she was frightened by Zhao Kan, so he pulled her firmly and said, "Sister Jinhua, don't be afraid."
Lin Jinhua looked at her and Mrs. Xu looking at her with concern, and then she came back to her senses, smiled quickly, and finally turned the page.
Mrs. Xu's natal Xiao's family is a hundred miles away. Since the Xu family was expelled, Mrs. Xu's family has also been implicated. Fortunately, the Xiao family is also indifferent to fame and wealth. They opened an academy to teach. Before Xu Chengqing was able to go to the famous Qingshan Studying in the academy is also thanks to the help of the Xiao family.
The carriage ran for a day, before it got dark, the few people rested at the post station first.
The people at the post station knew that King Ning was there, and they were very attentive, and they didn't dare to treat him slowly.
The meal was in the hall, and there were many officials who stopped by. Lin Jinhua took it easy to listen to their chats to pass the time, but in the middle of the meal, there was a sudden noise from outside. Lin Jinhua raised his eyes and saw a black shadow flashing However, there was a man with a big beard lying on the ground, and the man's face was also rapidly turning black.
"Don't worry about it."
Just when Lin Jinhua was about to get up to watch, Zhao Huaiyan said lightly, elegantly put a piece of meat in her bowl, and without looking back, she just looked at her tenderly: "Eat first."
"But..." Xu Zhaozhao struggled while biting his chopsticks, "That man looks like he's dying."
"This person is the second head of Qingshan Village. If he doesn't die, more innocent people will die at his hands." After Zhao Huaiyan finished speaking, he looked at Gao Zhi, Gao Zhi understood, and turned to deal with it.
Lin Jinhua was surprised, he didn't even look at it, he knew that the man was the second head of Qingshanzhai, and he knew that his death deserved more than guilt, could it be that this was planned long ago?
"No."
Zhao Huaiyan seemed to be able to read minds, and said directly without waiting for her to speak.
Lin Jinhua blinked and didn't speak. Looking at the rice bowls piled up in front of her, she silently picked up chopsticks to eat.
After a while, there were cries and noise from the next door, and it didn't take long for it to become the sound of swords clashing.
Seeing that Zhao Huaiyan was so calm, Mrs. Xu also calmed down. Xu Zhaozhao just stretched his neck to watch the excitement. Lin Jinhua was curious, how many people did Zhao Huaiyan know? Were these people the secret to keeping him safe in the previous life?
After the meal, the neighbors also became quiet, and Gao Zhi also came back, bowing to one side.
Zhao Huaiyan said: "You rest first, Gao Tian will lead someone to protect you."
"My lord is going to meet the head of Qingshanzhai?" Lin Jinhua subconsciously asked.
"Ah."
"My lord, be careful." She thought for a while, but still only said this sentence.
Zhao Huaiyan nodded, took out a dagger from his sleeve and handed it to her: "Self-defense."
Lin Jinhua looked at the beautifully crafted dagger in front of her, which was clearly used for decoration... But, that's all, since he gave it to her, she naturally kept it.
Seeing her accepting it, Zhao Huaiyan had a smile in his eyes, and then turned and left.
As soon as he left, Xu Zhaozhao took a look at Gao Zhi and said, "Isn't this master a very powerful person?"
"It's really amazing. It's the only thing a woman can do like her..." After finishing speaking, Gao Tian realized that something was wrong. The prince went to meet a woman in the middle of the night. Will Miss Lin be jealous if she finds out?
He was busy looking at Lin Jinhua, but saw her eyes curved into crescent moons: "Is that girl pretty?"
"Good-looking is good-looking, but..." Gao Zhi was halfway through his words, he just wanted to shake his two big ears, what nonsense, even if it is really good-looking, he can't say it.
"Miss Lin, this subordinate is really stupid."
"Understood." Although Lin Jinhua believed in Zhao Huaiyan in her heart, but...it was sour, which made her unhappy.She smiled calmly, and said to Mrs. Xu and Xu Zhaozhao: "It's getting late, everyone should go to bed early."
"Sister Jinhua, are you okay?" Xu Zhaozhao said with wide eyes.
Mrs. Xu just pursed her lips and smiled secretly. Which woman can bear her man to meet other women in the middle of the night?And she is a beautiful woman, even if she is a husband who trusts her [-]%, she would feel uncomfortable if she were her, but women have three obediences and four virtues, men have three wives and four concubines, what else can they do except endure.
She looked at Lin Jinhua with a smile, and said, "It's getting late, go to bed early, the prince treats you like the only one in the world..."
"Yes." Lin Jinhua lowered her eyes.
After returning to the room, he opened the window and stood silently by the window to watch the full moon in the sky.Is it the only one?Is this the only one she wants?What she wants is a couple for the rest of her life, and no one else.But he is the noble and unparalleled King Ning, and he is more likely to be the emperor of the Jin Dynasty in the future. Could he only guard himself for the rest of his life?
Lin Jinhua was not sure, even if her father loved her mother so much, she would not dare to say that she was the only woman in this life.Even the older brother, before meeting Ru Yan, had a girl in the room, although he had no feelings for him.
She seemed to have gotten into her own dead end, but looking at the cold and boundless night, she could only pat herself on the head with her headache.
But before she could finish thinking, the cold wind swept over her, and her whole body became lighter, making her unable to even cry for help.She could see houses in the town passing by, and she realized she had been kidnapped.She touched the wax pill in her sleeve, gritted her teeth slightly, but before she could crush it, she heard a female voice next to her ear: "My master invites you to go, I won't hurt you." After finishing speaking, she grabbed her and moved forward even faster and go.
At this moment, Zhao Huaiyan didn't know that Lin Jinhua was taken away.
All the way to the gate of Qingshanzhai, he got off his horse.
The familiar people at the gate of the village stepped forward to lead the horse for him and said respectfully: "The master is waiting for you inside."
"En." Zhao Huaiyan calmly responded, and stepped forward.
After walking not far, he saw that the bluestone road was covered with flowers. He frowned slightly and stopped. Not long after, a woman with a charming figure came out dancing lightly, her jade feet gently stepped on the petals Spinning, graceful posture, charming appearance, even the light veil can't hide the beauty inside when she moves, but when she dances this dance, it doesn't have the frivolity and vulgarity of brothel girls, but it is more enthusiastic and bold.
Opposite to her enthusiasm is Zhao Huaiyan's indifference.
Zhao Huaiyan looked at the front indifferently, and let her surround her until her hand rested on the lapel of his chest before he pushed her back with his palm: "How many times are you going to make trouble?"
"My lord doesn't like it?"
"Disgusting." Zhao Huaiyan coldly pulled out the sword from his waist, and put it straight on her neck: "Tell me, where did He Lianjing go?"
Lin Jinyu, who had just been kidnapped and placed in the next room, was a little shocked when he saw this scene. How could he not be moved by such a beauty?
"My lord..."
The woman wanted to come forward coquettishly, but saw the cold sword flashing, and the long hair around her ears had been cut off.
She looked at her falling black hair in astonishment, and helped her forehead helplessly: "It is said that you are open to liking women, but it turns out you are not. You are still a broken sleeve, right?"
When Lin Jinhua heard her... no, it should be said that it was his rough male voice, her heart skipped a beat, and then she saw that the enchanting woman had drawn out the soft sword from her waist and started fighting with Zhao Huaiyan.
Zhao Huaiyan fought very easily, it seems that during this period of time, his martial arts has improved a lot, not long after, the person in women's clothing with waves on his chest was defeated, and looked at him in amazement: "When did your martial arts become so good?" ?”
Zhao Huaiyan's sword was on his neck: "Where is Helianjing!" Helianjing took Gu Master Qukong away, and it is probably related to Hua'er's Jade Butterfly. Tell the man.
The man pulled off the wig on his head to reveal his bald head, then pointed to his chest and said, "How about letting me pinch and spare my life?"
Zhao Huaiyan's sword fell even further, and the man shouted: "I'm going to die, I'll tell you, just take the sword away..."
Zhao Huaiyan frowned slightly, raised his sword and cut open the props on his body.
The turbulent wave split into two halves and landed on the ground. The man was heartbroken and glared at Zhao Huaiyan: "I don't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade. He Lianjing was originally caught by me when he passed by Qingshanzhai, but the man who was with him can play a weird flute. As soon as the flute sounded, there were poisonous insects crawling around, so I let him go."
After the man finished speaking, Zhao Huaiyan turned the sword in his hand and tapped his toe lightly. The man jumped into the air and slashed fiercely at the room beside him with the sword. The weak door was instantly slashed. After opening it, Lin Jinhua rushed out without thinking, and smashed the pill in her hand by the way.
"Hey, I still have some skills..." The bald man stood up, and before he could speak, he heard Lin Jinhua say, "Don't you know that you have been poisoned with Gu worms?"
"Gu worm?"
"The man playing the flute is Qu Kong, a well-known Gu raiser in southern Xinjiang. You must have heard about the capital city. If you don't take out the Gu worms, the Gu worms will crawl out of your stomachs and devour you. Use your flesh and blood." Lin Jinhua ran to Zhao Huaiyan's side, grabbed his sleeve, and panted slightly.
The bald man frowned, and before he wanted to say anything more, Zhao Huaiyan had already put his arms around Lin Jinhua's waist, and glanced at him: "This king helped you to become the head of the family, you should know the consequences of betrayal."
Only then did the bald man become serious, secretly clenched his palms, and did not speak.
Zhao Huaiyan glanced at the person in his arms, his eyes were deep, and he took her directly into the air and left this place.
As soon as they left, the people in the room came out scratching their itch and said, "Master, let them go like this?"
"Otherwise? How dare you take King Ning?" The bald man touched his bald head, glanced at his beauty skin that had been split open, and said, "Order to close the stockade for three days, and no one is allowed to treat him or him." Others..." He hesitated for a while, before saying: "He Lianjing and the man who raises Gu are hiding in the back mountain, drive away immediately."
"Yes."
Zhao Huaiyan took Lin Jinhua all the way down the mountain, and finally stopped when they reached the edge of the town.
Before he could speak, Lin Jinhua asked first, "Who is he?"
"The head of Qingshan Village."
"He seems to be good at disguise..." Mo Xue said that Princess Xianyue, who may be inextricably linked with Zhao Huaiyan, is also good at disguise.
Zhao Huaiyan looked at her with heavy eyes, raised his hand and rubbed her head: "What are you thinking?"
Lin Jinhua thought for a while, but still shook her head: "It's okay."
Zhao Huaiyan couldn't see her thoughts, it's just that there are some things that are more dangerous if they know about them.
"Go back first, this person is cunning and weird, did you drug them when you left?" Zhao Huaiyan asked.
Lin Jinhua remembered the moment when he took her away, so she sprinkled all the itch powder from her sleeve, blinked, and asked him innocently, "What will happen?"
Seeing her like this, Zhao Huaiyan suddenly remembered how innocent she was the first time he saw her: "It's okay." After finishing speaking, he took her back to the inn, but Gao Zhi was miserable, and spread the word about him to Lin Jinhua If you don't tell the rumors about going to see the beauty, you can't protect her...
In the middle of the night, when everyone was sound asleep, he knelt at the gate of the inn desolately, crying in the pale moonlight. He really thought that the boss was a great beauty, but he was actually a bald rough guy, damn bald!
Not far from the post station, the galloping horses had already stopped. The leader looked at the peaceful town, and the corners of his mouth curled up coldly.Lin Jinhua, if you came out of Beijing alone, don't blame me for taking advantage of others!
In the morning, when the sun came in, Lin Jinhua slowly woke up.
Mo Feng waited by his side, and said with a smile: "People from the Xiao family have already received the reception downstairs. The prince received the news early in the morning and left first, saying that he would meet us at the Xiao family later."
Lin Jinhua knew that he had a lot to do, so she just nodded and saw a boxy brocade box on the table not far away.
Seeing that she had noticed, Mo Feng smiled and said: "This is brought by the prince."
Lin Jinhua got up, walked to the table, opened the brocade box and saw that it was full of all kinds of rouge and gouache.
The corners of her mouth twitched. Could it be that this guy thought that he felt inferior when he saw that alluring master yesterday?
"These were sent by a girl nearby early in the morning. They said they were for you, Miss, but in fact they wanted to see the prince. The prince didn't know these things, so he thought the lady would like them, so he stood at the door and took them all box by box. You have most of the good rouge in this town." Mo Feng pursed his lips and smiled.
Lin Jinhua was startled, just when the sun came in through the window, she felt full of strength.
She locked the brocade box and handed it to Mo Feng: "Put it away carefully." Since it was given by him, there is no reason to throw it out.
After tidying up briefly, he went downstairs.
When going downstairs, the maidservant at the inn took the initiative to come forward and said with a smile, "Miss Lin is awake?"
"Hmm." Lin Jinhua nodded and smiled, and when she looked up, she saw Mrs. Xu and Xu Zhaozhao not far away, talking eagerly to someone, presumably it was the Xiao family.
She was about to walk over, when the servant woman from just now turned pale and covered her heart and rolled down the stairs in pain, even Mo Feng didn't want to stop her, because everything was so sudden.
Lin Jinhua walked down quickly, seeing that her head was bleeding from the fall, she hurriedly raised her hand to feel her pulse, and said, "It's a heart attack, bring the silver needle!"
Mo Feng responded, and immediately went to fetch the silver needle.
Only then did Lin Jinhua begin to administer the needles on the spot, after all, a patient with a heart attack cannot move around carelessly.
She was halfway through applying the silver needle, when suddenly a young girl ran out from the crowd, knelt beside the maid and began to cry: "Mother, mother, wake up..."
"Don't quarrel, wait until I finish the injection." Lin Jinhua said, the maid's illness is not complicated, and it is even simpler for her.
But because everyone's eyes were on the servant woman, no one noticed the girl at all, and no one noticed that a poisonous needle in her hand slowly pierced the servant woman's arm completely. .
The maid felt more and more uncomfortable, opened her mouth and stared at Lin Jinhua and breathed heavily, and raised her hand to push the girl beside her away, but the girl burst into tears and pressed her hand: " Mother, what's wrong with you! Mother——!"
The servant woman stared, bowed forward, then vomited black blood, and fell directly to the ground.
Lin Jinhua was very surprised, and vomited black blood, which was clearly a sign of poisoning.
She was about to feel her pulse, but she was pushed back violently by the girl, and her arm was also cut.
"Poisonous woman, why did you hurt my mother, you poisonous woman!" The girl yelled loudly, and when the people outside heard this, they all looked at Lin Jinhua. A teenage girl suddenly gave someone an injection. , indeed strange.
An old doctor in the crowd saw this scene, and without taking his pulse, he came in and yelled at Lin Jinhua, "Bastard, you have a few catties and a few taels, and you dare to prick so many silver needles!"
"I……"
Lin Jinhua was about to explain, but the girl cried even louder: "I know, because my mother bumped into you yesterday, you deliberately wanted to kill her, right! Yes, you are the eldest lady of the Lin family, we are just servants, I deserved to be killed by you in broad daylight!"
These words were extremely cruel, and the people beside them also saw that the servant girl was still alive just now, but turned into a corpse in an instant, and they were immediately enraged.
Xu Zhaozhao hurriedly rushed to Lin Jinhua, and the doctor snorted coldly: "I think it's intentional murder, Xiaoling, you should report to the officials. I heard that the newly appointed magistrate is patrolling around here. The emperor broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people." , today, even if she is a young lady of a rich family, she dares to kill people in full view, it is really abominable!"
"I'll go find the magistrate for you." Immediately, some enthusiastic people ran out.
Lin Jinhua calmed down after hearing this.The new magistrate, Tao Mou?He is so impatient?
She glanced at Mo Feng: "Keep an eye on the corpse, and don't allow anyone to get close, including her." Lin Jinhua was too lazy to explain to them, and only pointed at the girl named Xiaoling indifferently. If the servant has contact, if she doesn't do it herself, it can only be her.
After she finished speaking, Xiaoling sneered: "I know I can't beat you, so why not die with my mother?" After finishing speaking, she quickly pulled out the sword of the guard and slammed it hard against the blade!
(End of this chapter)
After leaving the gate of the palace, Tao Moucai stopped Lin Jincheng, looked at the woman he was holding in his arms, and looked at her closed eyes, still feeling unwilling.
Seeing this, Wang Yushi stepped forward and sighed softly, his voice was also a bit vicissitudes: "Young Master Tao, the Wang family is really sorry for you."
Lin Jincheng remained silent, and Tao Mou also designed Ru Yan, he didn't think Tao Mou was innocent.
Tao Mou only looked at Wang Ruyan wholeheartedly, then gritted his teeth: "I am also to blame for Ruyan's death today."
"This is all her choice." Wang Yushi sighed again.
But the more he said this, the more unwilling Tao Mou was, why!Why did Ru Yan willingly die for Lin Jincheng? Is she really so unwilling to marry herself? Is she really so inferior to Lin Jincheng?
He closed his eyes heavily, suppressed the hatred in his heart, looked at Wang Yushi in a blink of an eye, and said: "Although I can't marry Ruyan, I will always treat Ruyan as my own sister, and let people worship the ever-burning lantern in Changle Temple."
"Thank you." Wang Yushi was so sad now that he didn't have the energy to tell whether he was sincere or not.
Lin Jincheng didn't dare to bother Wang Yushi any more, so he endured the pain in his heart, carried Wang Ruyan into the carriage on one side, and said in a deep voice: "Go back to the Lin Mansion." After returning to the emperor's imperial decree, Ruyan will be his wife, so the funeral ceremony It must also be done in the Lin Mansion.
Wang Yushi said goodbye to Tao Mou and got into the carriage.
After the carriage left, Tao Shangshu came forward, and said coldly: "They really don't think much of my Tao family, but anyway, since Wang Ruyan is dead, the Tao family doesn't have to worry about losing face. After finishing speaking, he glanced at Tao Mou and said, "You don't have to stay in the capital anymore, just pack up and leave for the post tomorrow."
Tao Mou clenched his fists tightly in his sleeves and made no sound.
At this time, Lin Jincheng led his people all the way back to the Lin Mansion, but Lin Duan was nowhere to be seen, and everyone else in the Lin family was also dead, except for a few old servants, everyone else had also run away, looking extremely desolate.
Not long after he got off the carriage, the imperial decree from the palace also came, so Lin Jincheng had no choice but to put Wang Ruyan aside, but when he was about to put him down, he suddenly heard a cry, and someone grabbed his sleeve .
The servants were shocked when they saw it, even Wang Yushi was also shocked: "Ru Yan, she..."
Lin Jincheng looked at the person in front of him tenderly with eyes full of hope, and his voice trembled slightly: "Yan'er, are you still alive?"
Seeing this, the father-in-law who delivered the decree smiled: "Eunuch An mistakenly mistook strong wine for poisonous wine, but the emperor said, since Miss Wang died once, forget it, General Lin, Miss Wang , get up and take orders."
Lin Jincheng was overjoyed when he heard this, and Wang Ruyan also slowly opened her eyes, her face was blushing, but it was probably not strong alcohol, but a medicine that made people faint temporarily.
"Follow the sky, the emperor's edict said..."
Lin Jincheng only felt his head buzzing, and his heart was full of joy. He only knew that the imperial decree was a marriage grant, and he couldn't hear or see anything else, as long as there was someone in front of him.
When Lin Jinhua heard the news, Jing Zhaoyin said it casually when he hurried back.
He came to the prison door in person, and said with a smile: "Miss Lin, the matter has been investigated, you are no longer suspected, you can go home."
Lin Jinhua breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that, it would be nice if she could go out.
"Thank you, Mr. Zhang."
"It's my duty." Mr. Zhang looked at her cell, which was decorated like a women's boudoir. Thinking about how respectful all his servants were to her, if this continues, the government will be punished. She's been kind to people.
Lin Jinhua smiled, looked at the leading yamen servant Bai Da, and said with a smile: "You are not in good health, you need to bask in the sun more and be less angry."
Upon hearing this, Bai Da nodded gratefully: "Thank you, Ms. Lin, for your concern."
"It's fate to meet...and..." She looked at the huddled man next door, and said with a smile: "He is my savior after all, please take care of him before he is sentenced."
"Miss Lin, don't worry, I will take care of you, Bai Da." Bai Da patted his chest in response.
Seeing this, Master Zhang knew that Lin Jinhua could not stay here any longer, so he hurriedly said, "Master Xu's family is waiting outside, Miss Lin please."
Lin Jinhua nodded when she heard this, and then walked away.
When she left, she could catch a glimpse of the pair of dark eyes staring at her from the corner of the corner of her eye, but there was only so much she could do.
Not far from the prison, I saw Xu Zhaozhao who was waiting anxiously.
Seeing Lin Jinhua from afar, Xu Zhaozhao jumped up and hugged her regardless of Mrs. Xu's obstruction, and then looked her up and down: "Sister Jinhua has lost weight."
"Just go back and rest for a few days."
"Then you have to take a good rest. Mother is planning to go back to her mother's house. The scenery there is beautiful. Let's go for a walk." Xu Zhaozhao has already made up his mind.
Lin Jinhua didn't refuse when she heard the words, she might as well go out for a walk.
After finishing speaking, the Xu family also gathered around, Mrs. Xu's eyes were slightly red, she pulled her affectionately and said: "Let's go back first, the prince is talking to your uncle in Xu's mansion, and we will have dinner together later."
Lin Jinhua blinked, Zhao Huaiyan was also there, what could he say to his uncle?Uncle is just a sacrificial drink, so could it be possible to talk about academics?
Xu Chengqing also smiled and said: "There is another happy event today. Jincheng was given a marriage by the emperor. Just in time for you to come out of prison, I want to bring him and the Wang family together, and discuss the dowry by the way."
Xu Zhaozhao pursed his mouth when he heard this, "I don't know why my uncle is still in the country and won't come back. If he doesn't come when Cousin Cheng gets married, I won't talk to him anymore."
Lin Jinhua and Xu Chengqing looked at each other. Only they and Zhao Huaiyan knew about their father going to the border. It seemed that his father was coming back as soon as possible.
Mrs. Xu also felt strange, but seeing the way Lin Jinhua and Xu Chengqing looked at each other, she knew in her heart that there must be other plans, so she just pulled Xu Zhaozhao and Lin Jinhua with a smile and said, "Okay, you all go back and clean up, see you later Don't be rude to the Wang family."
"Yes!" Xu Zhaozhao was happy when he heard this, and quickly agreed.
Before leaving, Lin Jinhua went to see the son-in-law, she was still the same, Duanhui didn't seem to think about it, but Mrs. Ling was reasonable and allowed her to go back.
Zhao Huaiyan specially asked Mo Xue to pick him up in his big, soft carriage. The spacious carriage didn’t feel crowded when Xu’s family sat down. On the way back, Xu Zhaozhao chattered all the way. unhappy.
Soon after arriving at Xu's mansion, Lin Jinhua and Xu Zhaozhao separated and went to wash up separately.
In the small courtyard, Mo Xue prepared hot water early, and Ah Bao even picked a lot of fresh flower petals and put them in the bathtub, the fresh fragrance overflowed.
Ah Bao helped her into the bathtub after taking off her clothes on one side, sprinkled a handful of flower petals, and said with a smile: "Miss, do you like the fragrance of flowers?"
"It smells better than incense." The fragrance of flowers is more pure, whether there are other impurities in it, you can smell it immediately, and it is safe.
Only then did A Bao smile shyly: "The servant will pick more in the future."
Mo Xue came in from the outside with a bath towel in her hands. Hearing this, she just followed along with a smile and said, "A Bao is now a master at tending flowers and plants."
"My sister laughed at the servant girl. How can the servant girl be considered a master? I heard that there is a Yinxiang Building in the capital, which specializes in selling spices and rouge made from these flowers, as well as scented tea. There are many kinds of flowers. Unlike the servant girl, who knows how to dry flowers and pick flower petals, that's all. "A Bao turned his head and scooped up some hot water again.
Lin Jinhua's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she asked, "Whose shop is this Yinxiang Building?"
"Whose shop..." Ah Bao thought about it for a while, then frowned and said: "The shopkeeper seems to be named An, but he doesn't show up very much, and a shopkeeper named Zhang is helping to take care of it. I heard that Princess Pingxi often goes to buy scented tea, maybe it's the shop of Prince Pingxi's mansion?"
Mo Xue looked at Lin Jinhua, Lin Jinhua just blinked and smiled: "Maybe." After speaking, she got up.
Mo Xue hurriedly handed over the bath towel, and then took a dry towel to wipe her black hair on the other end.
Mo Feng came in from the outside, holding the brocade box in his hand, saw Lin Jinhua, and smiled slightly: "Miss, this is from the prince." After speaking, he opened the brocade box.
From what Lin Jinhua could see, it was a goose-yellow silk dress, paired with a box of suet jade and citrine jewelry.
Lin Jinhua was satisfied and laughed after watching it. Today's protagonists are her elder brother and Wang Ruyan, and she has no reason to steal their limelight by wearing bright red and green clothes.
Soon, the maids helped her change into the clothes, which fit unexpectedly, and also made her whole body softer and sweeter. On both sides of Chaoyun's bun, there was a bead flower inlaid with yellow crystals, Adding two tassel hairpins, the former cold and mighty Miss Lin seems to have suddenly become the girl next door.
Ah Bao couldn't help laughing and said, "Miss looks so cute."
Lin Jinhua's face twitched slightly, cute, are you sure you're not talking about Zhao Zhao?
But she also changed into her clothes, and she didn't bother to change them anymore. Looking at herself in the bronze mirror, if her face hadn't become thinner and made her facial features clearer, she would really look very young.
After changing his clothes and going out, he saw that the servants of Xu's mansion were already busy. A row of people carried food and carefully went to the front yard. The front yard was brightly lit, as if a wedding was about to take place.
Lin Jinhua had just stepped into the door of the front yard, when she saw a brightly lit figure at the end of the corridor, a crimson figure was standing faintly with his back facing him, talking to someone, some of the blue hair was tied up with a jade crown, and the rest As the breeze blew past, the crimson clothes floated gently with the blue hair, as if time had frozen. Thinking of his gentle appearance that day, Lin Jinhua felt a little startled...
Zhao Huaiyan also seemed to sense her coming, turned slightly sideways, and looked at her at the door, dressed in goose yellow clothes, like a girl next door who never knew the pain and struggle, her eyes softened instantly: "Come here." After that, He must take her away from the disputes here, and let her be a carefree little girl for the rest of her life.
The moment Lin Jinhua met his phoenix eyes, it was as if a warm breeze was blowing around her, making her laugh unconsciously.
Xu Zhaozhao came in from the back, seeing this scene, his eyes were staring: "Sister Jinhua and His Highness King Ning are really a perfect match."
When Lin Jinhua heard the voice, she came back to her senses, her face was slightly hot, but she found that Zhao Huaiyan had already walked towards her.
Zhao Huaiyan saw the sweat dripping from her forehead, and was a little worried: "Jinhua, what's wrong?"
"It's okay." It's not all your fault, why is it so beautiful and gentle.
Zhao Huaiyan was a little puzzled, but still said softly: "You are very beautiful today."
Lin Jinhua's face became hotter, and little evil thoughts popped up in her heart one after another, but no, there are still more than four months before her wedding, she has to hold back and be a reserved person.
She went to see Xu Zhaozhao and said, "Is the elder brother here?"
"It's almost there..." Xu Zhaozhao had just finished speaking when he heard a summons from the maid, and then saw Xu Chengqing coming forward, with Wang Yushi and Mrs. Wang beside him.Wang Ruyan stayed at home to rest because she was unwell, but Lin Jinhua didn't think much about it, she just thought about seeing her again when she had time.
Soon, the dinner began, and Lin Jinhua was arranged to sit at Zhao Huaiyan's lower head, whether it was on purpose or not, during which Zhao Huaiyan filled her small bowl with vegetables.
Xu Zhaozhao is still very lively because of his young age, he has no taboos, he can say everything, and it is very lively.
After the dinner, Mrs. Xu led Xu Zhaozhao and Lin Jinhua to leave in advance.
When leaving, Lin Jinhua saw Zhao Huaiyan calmly discussing things with his uncle, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised. Not all of his discussions with people in private were cold, so how did the rumors that he was withdrawn come out?
But what she didn't know was that apart from Lin Jinhua's relatives, Zhao Huaiyan was indeed indifferent to everyone else.
After the night passed, Lin Jinhua couldn't sleep, thinking over and over again about Zhao Huaiyan, how could she have such no impression of him in her previous life?What made him like him in his previous life, until he was reborn, this kind of liking still made him desperate to find him.
She couldn't figure it out, really couldn't figure it out, but she was sure that she really fell in love with him.
At daybreak, she got up, and today she was going back to her natal home with Mrs. Xu.
After dressing up, Mo Xue brought breakfast from outside, blue and white porridge and two side dishes.
"Miss, I want to ask for two days' leave today. I'm sick, so I want to go back and see." A Bao said timidly from the side.
Lin Jinhua drank the last sip of porridge, rinsed her mouth, and smiled, "Go ahead, but are you short of money? I'll ask someone to bring it to you."
A Bao hurriedly shook his head happily: "Miss is generous, the slaves have saved a lot of money, that's enough."
"I remember that your natal family is not in the capital, so I asked Mo Xue to prepare a carriage for you and take you out of the city." Lin Jinhua bent her eyes and smiled, and glanced at Mo Xue by the way.They were worried about finding a legitimate reason to go out of the city. Madam Yan dared to threaten Cai'er's life before, so she must let her know that not everyone in her family can move!
Abao was overjoyed and hurriedly knelt down to salute, after all her natal home was really far away.
After breakfast, it's time to head out.
Lin Jinhua went out of the mansion with Mrs. Xu, and found that the carriage of Prince Ning's mansion was parked firmly at the gate of Xu's mansion.
She was a little surprised, and Mrs. Xu smiled on the side: "My lord said, I just have an errand to do, so let's drop by."
Lin Jinhua didn't understand what Mrs. Xu meant, and Huaiyan wanted to go together on purpose.But anyway, the capital city has not been peaceful for the past few days, who knows what will happen on the way, it will be safer with him.
After making up her mind, Lin Jinhua nodded.
Because Xu Chengqing was on duty, it was inconvenient to follow, so he only told Xu Zhaozhao: "You can protect Jinhua, or I won't let you go."
"Don't worry, with me here, no one can bully Sister Jinhua!" Xu Zhaozhao vowed.
Lin Jinhua looked at her bulging bun face, and felt sweet in her heart.
Zhao Huaiyan looked at him with Xu's family through the curtain of the car, and a smile appeared in his eyes unconsciously.He never knew that there are really family members who can be so close. There is no suspicion between brothers and sisters, parents and uncles, only trust and love.In the palace, he also believed that since his mother and concubine were taken by his father...
He frowned slightly, forcing himself not to think about it anymore, but the clenched head on his lap betrayed his current mood.
Gao Tian could feel the cold air coming from the carriage. Looking at the bustling and warm Xu family, he felt only distressed and helpless. How did the master come here for so many years? He knew clearly, and hoped that after marrying Miss Lin, this Everything can change.
When he was thinking, there was a sound of hoofbeats, and Gao Zhi looked around, who else could it be if it was King Jing who hadn't seen him for a long time, but I heard that last time he took away the 'corpse' of Jiacai...
"His Royal Highness King Jing." Gao Zhi hurriedly saluted.
Zhao Kan only looked at the carriage, and said with a light smile, "Brother Emperor, where are you going?"
Zhao Huaiyan didn't show her face, and said indifferently: "What's the matter?"
"Small things..."
"You don't need to find me for small things." Zhao Huaiyan directly refused.
Zhao Kan looked at the people standing at the gate of the Xu Mansion, his eyes flickered, and he smiled, "I have something to take Miss Lin back to assist in the investigation..."
Lin Jinhua frowned slightly when she heard this.
But as soon as his words fell, Zhao Huaiyan said coldly: "The matter of Gu worms, this king has already found out that it is related to you, and the evidence has been presented to the palace early today. If the emperor has time, why not go to the palace to face the saint now?" good."
"You—!" Zhao Kan didn't expect that he would threaten himself with this matter, and he gritted his teeth: "Brother Dahuang is really good!"
"You are too stupid." After Zhao Huaiyan finished speaking calmly, she glanced at Gao Tien, Gao Tien understood, and then walked up to Mrs. Xu and said: "It's late, Madam and the two young ladies should start their journey now."
Mrs. Xu nodded when she saw him like this, and went to Zhao Kan to greet her, and then said: "His Royal Highness King Jing wants to take someone away, and there must be a valid reason. The niece who came out of the cabinet was taken away by the prince for no reason, right?"
Zhao Kan looked at the calm Mrs. Xu, and smiled instead of anger: "In that case, then I will give you one..."
"Great!"
Zhao Huaiyan's icy voice came, and Gao Zhi quickly responded, stepped forward and bowed his hands to Zhao Kan: "This subordinate is ordered by His Highness King Ning to ask His Highness King Jing to assist in investigating the Gu worm in the capital."
Zhao Kan saw that he was not at all afraid of his high talent, his complexion was slightly green, and he knew that Zhao Huaiyan was determined not to let him take Lin Jinhua away today, so he only gave a light snort, and then glanced at Lin Jinhua, watching her look at him indifferently eyes, the corners of the mouth are raised high, don't worry, anyway, sooner or later you will be my Zhao Kan's!
After speaking, he tightened his reins and turned his head away.
Zhao Huaiyan raised her eyes lightly when she heard the sound of horseshoes leaving.The next person to deal with is a respectable person...
Only then was Lin Jinhua able to get into the carriage, and when she was leaving, she deliberately glanced at Mo Yue and Peanut who were hiding in the corner, and seeing them nodding solemnly to her, she put down the curtain in peace.
When she leaves Beijing with great fanfare, those people who are ready to move will definitely make some moves, and Lin Duan is about to return to Beijing. When she knows that she is not there, she will definitely take it lightly. As long as she finds out his purpose and the people behind him, it is His time of death!
Xu Zhaozhao saw that Lin Jinhua was in a daze, and thought she was frightened by Zhao Kan, so he pulled her firmly and said, "Sister Jinhua, don't be afraid."
Lin Jinhua looked at her and Mrs. Xu looking at her with concern, and then she came back to her senses, smiled quickly, and finally turned the page.
Mrs. Xu's natal Xiao's family is a hundred miles away. Since the Xu family was expelled, Mrs. Xu's family has also been implicated. Fortunately, the Xiao family is also indifferent to fame and wealth. They opened an academy to teach. Before Xu Chengqing was able to go to the famous Qingshan Studying in the academy is also thanks to the help of the Xiao family.
The carriage ran for a day, before it got dark, the few people rested at the post station first.
The people at the post station knew that King Ning was there, and they were very attentive, and they didn't dare to treat him slowly.
The meal was in the hall, and there were many officials who stopped by. Lin Jinhua took it easy to listen to their chats to pass the time, but in the middle of the meal, there was a sudden noise from outside. Lin Jinhua raised his eyes and saw a black shadow flashing However, there was a man with a big beard lying on the ground, and the man's face was also rapidly turning black.
"Don't worry about it."
Just when Lin Jinhua was about to get up to watch, Zhao Huaiyan said lightly, elegantly put a piece of meat in her bowl, and without looking back, she just looked at her tenderly: "Eat first."
"But..." Xu Zhaozhao struggled while biting his chopsticks, "That man looks like he's dying."
"This person is the second head of Qingshan Village. If he doesn't die, more innocent people will die at his hands." After Zhao Huaiyan finished speaking, he looked at Gao Zhi, Gao Zhi understood, and turned to deal with it.
Lin Jinhua was surprised, he didn't even look at it, he knew that the man was the second head of Qingshanzhai, and he knew that his death deserved more than guilt, could it be that this was planned long ago?
"No."
Zhao Huaiyan seemed to be able to read minds, and said directly without waiting for her to speak.
Lin Jinhua blinked and didn't speak. Looking at the rice bowls piled up in front of her, she silently picked up chopsticks to eat.
After a while, there were cries and noise from the next door, and it didn't take long for it to become the sound of swords clashing.
Seeing that Zhao Huaiyan was so calm, Mrs. Xu also calmed down. Xu Zhaozhao just stretched his neck to watch the excitement. Lin Jinhua was curious, how many people did Zhao Huaiyan know? Were these people the secret to keeping him safe in the previous life?
After the meal, the neighbors also became quiet, and Gao Zhi also came back, bowing to one side.
Zhao Huaiyan said: "You rest first, Gao Tian will lead someone to protect you."
"My lord is going to meet the head of Qingshanzhai?" Lin Jinhua subconsciously asked.
"Ah."
"My lord, be careful." She thought for a while, but still only said this sentence.
Zhao Huaiyan nodded, took out a dagger from his sleeve and handed it to her: "Self-defense."
Lin Jinhua looked at the beautifully crafted dagger in front of her, which was clearly used for decoration... But, that's all, since he gave it to her, she naturally kept it.
Seeing her accepting it, Zhao Huaiyan had a smile in his eyes, and then turned and left.
As soon as he left, Xu Zhaozhao took a look at Gao Zhi and said, "Isn't this master a very powerful person?"
"It's really amazing. It's the only thing a woman can do like her..." After finishing speaking, Gao Tian realized that something was wrong. The prince went to meet a woman in the middle of the night. Will Miss Lin be jealous if she finds out?
He was busy looking at Lin Jinhua, but saw her eyes curved into crescent moons: "Is that girl pretty?"
"Good-looking is good-looking, but..." Gao Zhi was halfway through his words, he just wanted to shake his two big ears, what nonsense, even if it is really good-looking, he can't say it.
"Miss Lin, this subordinate is really stupid."
"Understood." Although Lin Jinhua believed in Zhao Huaiyan in her heart, but...it was sour, which made her unhappy.She smiled calmly, and said to Mrs. Xu and Xu Zhaozhao: "It's getting late, everyone should go to bed early."
"Sister Jinhua, are you okay?" Xu Zhaozhao said with wide eyes.
Mrs. Xu just pursed her lips and smiled secretly. Which woman can bear her man to meet other women in the middle of the night?And she is a beautiful woman, even if she is a husband who trusts her [-]%, she would feel uncomfortable if she were her, but women have three obediences and four virtues, men have three wives and four concubines, what else can they do except endure.
She looked at Lin Jinhua with a smile, and said, "It's getting late, go to bed early, the prince treats you like the only one in the world..."
"Yes." Lin Jinhua lowered her eyes.
After returning to the room, he opened the window and stood silently by the window to watch the full moon in the sky.Is it the only one?Is this the only one she wants?What she wants is a couple for the rest of her life, and no one else.But he is the noble and unparalleled King Ning, and he is more likely to be the emperor of the Jin Dynasty in the future. Could he only guard himself for the rest of his life?
Lin Jinhua was not sure, even if her father loved her mother so much, she would not dare to say that she was the only woman in this life.Even the older brother, before meeting Ru Yan, had a girl in the room, although he had no feelings for him.
She seemed to have gotten into her own dead end, but looking at the cold and boundless night, she could only pat herself on the head with her headache.
But before she could finish thinking, the cold wind swept over her, and her whole body became lighter, making her unable to even cry for help.She could see houses in the town passing by, and she realized she had been kidnapped.She touched the wax pill in her sleeve, gritted her teeth slightly, but before she could crush it, she heard a female voice next to her ear: "My master invites you to go, I won't hurt you." After finishing speaking, she grabbed her and moved forward even faster and go.
At this moment, Zhao Huaiyan didn't know that Lin Jinhua was taken away.
All the way to the gate of Qingshanzhai, he got off his horse.
The familiar people at the gate of the village stepped forward to lead the horse for him and said respectfully: "The master is waiting for you inside."
"En." Zhao Huaiyan calmly responded, and stepped forward.
After walking not far, he saw that the bluestone road was covered with flowers. He frowned slightly and stopped. Not long after, a woman with a charming figure came out dancing lightly, her jade feet gently stepped on the petals Spinning, graceful posture, charming appearance, even the light veil can't hide the beauty inside when she moves, but when she dances this dance, it doesn't have the frivolity and vulgarity of brothel girls, but it is more enthusiastic and bold.
Opposite to her enthusiasm is Zhao Huaiyan's indifference.
Zhao Huaiyan looked at the front indifferently, and let her surround her until her hand rested on the lapel of his chest before he pushed her back with his palm: "How many times are you going to make trouble?"
"My lord doesn't like it?"
"Disgusting." Zhao Huaiyan coldly pulled out the sword from his waist, and put it straight on her neck: "Tell me, where did He Lianjing go?"
Lin Jinyu, who had just been kidnapped and placed in the next room, was a little shocked when he saw this scene. How could he not be moved by such a beauty?
"My lord..."
The woman wanted to come forward coquettishly, but saw the cold sword flashing, and the long hair around her ears had been cut off.
She looked at her falling black hair in astonishment, and helped her forehead helplessly: "It is said that you are open to liking women, but it turns out you are not. You are still a broken sleeve, right?"
When Lin Jinhua heard her... no, it should be said that it was his rough male voice, her heart skipped a beat, and then she saw that the enchanting woman had drawn out the soft sword from her waist and started fighting with Zhao Huaiyan.
Zhao Huaiyan fought very easily, it seems that during this period of time, his martial arts has improved a lot, not long after, the person in women's clothing with waves on his chest was defeated, and looked at him in amazement: "When did your martial arts become so good?" ?”
Zhao Huaiyan's sword was on his neck: "Where is Helianjing!" Helianjing took Gu Master Qukong away, and it is probably related to Hua'er's Jade Butterfly. Tell the man.
The man pulled off the wig on his head to reveal his bald head, then pointed to his chest and said, "How about letting me pinch and spare my life?"
Zhao Huaiyan's sword fell even further, and the man shouted: "I'm going to die, I'll tell you, just take the sword away..."
Zhao Huaiyan frowned slightly, raised his sword and cut open the props on his body.
The turbulent wave split into two halves and landed on the ground. The man was heartbroken and glared at Zhao Huaiyan: "I don't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade. He Lianjing was originally caught by me when he passed by Qingshanzhai, but the man who was with him can play a weird flute. As soon as the flute sounded, there were poisonous insects crawling around, so I let him go."
After the man finished speaking, Zhao Huaiyan turned the sword in his hand and tapped his toe lightly. The man jumped into the air and slashed fiercely at the room beside him with the sword. The weak door was instantly slashed. After opening it, Lin Jinhua rushed out without thinking, and smashed the pill in her hand by the way.
"Hey, I still have some skills..." The bald man stood up, and before he could speak, he heard Lin Jinhua say, "Don't you know that you have been poisoned with Gu worms?"
"Gu worm?"
"The man playing the flute is Qu Kong, a well-known Gu raiser in southern Xinjiang. You must have heard about the capital city. If you don't take out the Gu worms, the Gu worms will crawl out of your stomachs and devour you. Use your flesh and blood." Lin Jinhua ran to Zhao Huaiyan's side, grabbed his sleeve, and panted slightly.
The bald man frowned, and before he wanted to say anything more, Zhao Huaiyan had already put his arms around Lin Jinhua's waist, and glanced at him: "This king helped you to become the head of the family, you should know the consequences of betrayal."
Only then did the bald man become serious, secretly clenched his palms, and did not speak.
Zhao Huaiyan glanced at the person in his arms, his eyes were deep, and he took her directly into the air and left this place.
As soon as they left, the people in the room came out scratching their itch and said, "Master, let them go like this?"
"Otherwise? How dare you take King Ning?" The bald man touched his bald head, glanced at his beauty skin that had been split open, and said, "Order to close the stockade for three days, and no one is allowed to treat him or him." Others..." He hesitated for a while, before saying: "He Lianjing and the man who raises Gu are hiding in the back mountain, drive away immediately."
"Yes."
Zhao Huaiyan took Lin Jinhua all the way down the mountain, and finally stopped when they reached the edge of the town.
Before he could speak, Lin Jinhua asked first, "Who is he?"
"The head of Qingshan Village."
"He seems to be good at disguise..." Mo Xue said that Princess Xianyue, who may be inextricably linked with Zhao Huaiyan, is also good at disguise.
Zhao Huaiyan looked at her with heavy eyes, raised his hand and rubbed her head: "What are you thinking?"
Lin Jinhua thought for a while, but still shook her head: "It's okay."
Zhao Huaiyan couldn't see her thoughts, it's just that there are some things that are more dangerous if they know about them.
"Go back first, this person is cunning and weird, did you drug them when you left?" Zhao Huaiyan asked.
Lin Jinhua remembered the moment when he took her away, so she sprinkled all the itch powder from her sleeve, blinked, and asked him innocently, "What will happen?"
Seeing her like this, Zhao Huaiyan suddenly remembered how innocent she was the first time he saw her: "It's okay." After finishing speaking, he took her back to the inn, but Gao Zhi was miserable, and spread the word about him to Lin Jinhua If you don't tell the rumors about going to see the beauty, you can't protect her...
In the middle of the night, when everyone was sound asleep, he knelt at the gate of the inn desolately, crying in the pale moonlight. He really thought that the boss was a great beauty, but he was actually a bald rough guy, damn bald!
Not far from the post station, the galloping horses had already stopped. The leader looked at the peaceful town, and the corners of his mouth curled up coldly.Lin Jinhua, if you came out of Beijing alone, don't blame me for taking advantage of others!
In the morning, when the sun came in, Lin Jinhua slowly woke up.
Mo Feng waited by his side, and said with a smile: "People from the Xiao family have already received the reception downstairs. The prince received the news early in the morning and left first, saying that he would meet us at the Xiao family later."
Lin Jinhua knew that he had a lot to do, so she just nodded and saw a boxy brocade box on the table not far away.
Seeing that she had noticed, Mo Feng smiled and said: "This is brought by the prince."
Lin Jinhua got up, walked to the table, opened the brocade box and saw that it was full of all kinds of rouge and gouache.
The corners of her mouth twitched. Could it be that this guy thought that he felt inferior when he saw that alluring master yesterday?
"These were sent by a girl nearby early in the morning. They said they were for you, Miss, but in fact they wanted to see the prince. The prince didn't know these things, so he thought the lady would like them, so he stood at the door and took them all box by box. You have most of the good rouge in this town." Mo Feng pursed his lips and smiled.
Lin Jinhua was startled, just when the sun came in through the window, she felt full of strength.
She locked the brocade box and handed it to Mo Feng: "Put it away carefully." Since it was given by him, there is no reason to throw it out.
After tidying up briefly, he went downstairs.
When going downstairs, the maidservant at the inn took the initiative to come forward and said with a smile, "Miss Lin is awake?"
"Hmm." Lin Jinhua nodded and smiled, and when she looked up, she saw Mrs. Xu and Xu Zhaozhao not far away, talking eagerly to someone, presumably it was the Xiao family.
She was about to walk over, when the servant woman from just now turned pale and covered her heart and rolled down the stairs in pain, even Mo Feng didn't want to stop her, because everything was so sudden.
Lin Jinhua walked down quickly, seeing that her head was bleeding from the fall, she hurriedly raised her hand to feel her pulse, and said, "It's a heart attack, bring the silver needle!"
Mo Feng responded, and immediately went to fetch the silver needle.
Only then did Lin Jinhua begin to administer the needles on the spot, after all, a patient with a heart attack cannot move around carelessly.
She was halfway through applying the silver needle, when suddenly a young girl ran out from the crowd, knelt beside the maid and began to cry: "Mother, mother, wake up..."
"Don't quarrel, wait until I finish the injection." Lin Jinhua said, the maid's illness is not complicated, and it is even simpler for her.
But because everyone's eyes were on the servant woman, no one noticed the girl at all, and no one noticed that a poisonous needle in her hand slowly pierced the servant woman's arm completely. .
The maid felt more and more uncomfortable, opened her mouth and stared at Lin Jinhua and breathed heavily, and raised her hand to push the girl beside her away, but the girl burst into tears and pressed her hand: " Mother, what's wrong with you! Mother——!"
The servant woman stared, bowed forward, then vomited black blood, and fell directly to the ground.
Lin Jinhua was very surprised, and vomited black blood, which was clearly a sign of poisoning.
She was about to feel her pulse, but she was pushed back violently by the girl, and her arm was also cut.
"Poisonous woman, why did you hurt my mother, you poisonous woman!" The girl yelled loudly, and when the people outside heard this, they all looked at Lin Jinhua. A teenage girl suddenly gave someone an injection. , indeed strange.
An old doctor in the crowd saw this scene, and without taking his pulse, he came in and yelled at Lin Jinhua, "Bastard, you have a few catties and a few taels, and you dare to prick so many silver needles!"
"I……"
Lin Jinhua was about to explain, but the girl cried even louder: "I know, because my mother bumped into you yesterday, you deliberately wanted to kill her, right! Yes, you are the eldest lady of the Lin family, we are just servants, I deserved to be killed by you in broad daylight!"
These words were extremely cruel, and the people beside them also saw that the servant girl was still alive just now, but turned into a corpse in an instant, and they were immediately enraged.
Xu Zhaozhao hurriedly rushed to Lin Jinhua, and the doctor snorted coldly: "I think it's intentional murder, Xiaoling, you should report to the officials. I heard that the newly appointed magistrate is patrolling around here. The emperor broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people." , today, even if she is a young lady of a rich family, she dares to kill people in full view, it is really abominable!"
"I'll go find the magistrate for you." Immediately, some enthusiastic people ran out.
Lin Jinhua calmed down after hearing this.The new magistrate, Tao Mou?He is so impatient?
She glanced at Mo Feng: "Keep an eye on the corpse, and don't allow anyone to get close, including her." Lin Jinhua was too lazy to explain to them, and only pointed at the girl named Xiaoling indifferently. If the servant has contact, if she doesn't do it herself, it can only be her.
After she finished speaking, Xiaoling sneered: "I know I can't beat you, so why not die with my mother?" After finishing speaking, she quickly pulled out the sword of the guard and slammed it hard against the blade!
