Chapter 92 Die Again
Zhao Kan knew the news of Zheng Lai being sent to prison as soon as he woke up early in the morning.
The little servant stood outside the bead curtain and looked at the prince who had already sat up from the bed, tremblingly said: "My lord, how do you think about this matter? I received the news that Princess Duanhui brought the master of the country together early in the morning. Entering the palace, General Zheng may really get into trouble this time."
Zhao Kan's face was heavy, and the concubine on one side hurriedly got up to help him change his clothes.
After changing clothes, Zhao Kan put her aside, walked out from the room, glanced at the young man, and said in a deep voice, "Where is Jiacai? He asked Zheng Lai to do this, presumably She should have prepared a way."
"Master Liu is being interviewed by Jiacai. The person who identified General Zheng yesterday is also Master Liu."
"And him?" Zhao Kan became more and more confused. Since he dared to identify Zheng Lai, why did he dare to come to King Jing's Mansion this morning?
Zhao Kan thought for a while, and then said: "Go and watch first, and report any situation at any time, and I will enter the palace first." Although Zheng Lai is only a third-rank, but at least he holds real power, and it is better to have him around than not at all.
The little servant hurriedly responded, and after watching Zhao Kan go out, he hurried to Jiacai's yard again.
At that time, Mr. Liu will kneel in the flower hall.
"The lower official really dare not lie to the empress. It was indeed someone who threatened the lower official to do so last night. The lower official's wife is still too scared to go out. When the sky dawns, the lower official will report back immediately, please Your Majesty is very careful." Mr. Liu said sincerely.
Jiacai stared at him indifferently, stroking the tea in his hand lightly: "Since that's the case, why did Mr. Liu come to tell me, wouldn't it be better to go to find His Royal Highness King Jing?" After all, these people in King Jing's mansion were still Zhao Kan. It's just that the current situation is temporarily respectful to her for the purpose of mutual use, but it's not strange that Master Liu is looking for himself instead of Zhao Kan.
Master Liu's expression was not disturbed, he only gritted his teeth, as if there was something hard to say.
When Jiacai saw this, he glanced at the servants in the room, and said: "Everyone go outside and wait."
The servants retreated immediately.
As soon as they left, Jiacai looked at Master Liu with a slight chill: "Don't tell me now, you came to me first because you wanted to betray King Jing."
"Why would your empress think so?" Master Liu looked stunned and gave her a surprised look before continuing: "It is true that I have something to hide, but I am loyal to His Highness King Jing. If I didn't know that my empress and Your Highness are going to deal with outsiders together , and definitely won’t tell your mother about this first.” After Master Liu said this, he secretly beat a drum in his heart, but he has been pretending to be a pig and a tiger for a long time, and he knew how to deal with such doubts and questions. This person is not perfunctory.
When Jiacai heard this, his doubts disappeared, and he said: "Oh, is that so? Then tell me what you have to hide?"
Only then did Master Liu speak, and said: "Yes, I found out that the person who threatened me yesterday has something to do with your empress."
"It's about me?"
"Yes, Madam, please look at this." After speaking, he took out a waist badge from his sleeve, which was exactly the waist badge of Prince Pingxi's residence.This was left in his carriage when Mo Yue left yesterday. He had already noticed the relationship between Princess Pingxi and Jiacai after so many years in the capital.
Jia Cairen looked at the badge, and his indifferent expression was finally broken.
"How could it be her?"
"I don't even know the lower official. That person only threatened the lower official to harm Zheng Lai, and said that it was all for the good of the empress. The lower official was worried that someone was pretending to be someone from the Pingxi Palace, and wanted to use this to provoke the relationship between the empress and the prince, so he deliberately First come and report to the empress, let the empress go to verify, and then I can explain to the prince." Master Liu then lowered his head and said.
When Jiacai people heard this, even though they still had doubts, they believed it more.
She glanced at the person kneeling on the ground, and said in a deep voice, "Since that's the case, you should find a way to help me invite the Shizi Concubine here."
"The villain is only a thousand households of the sixth rank. I'm afraid he can't even enter the gate of Pingxi Palace." Mr. Liu wondered: "Besides, it is rumored that the concubine is arrogant. It’s the news that the empress is still alive.”
"What you said is not unreasonable..." Jiacai thought for a while and looked at him: "Since that is the case, it is not too late. You go to prepare the horse now. I will go to see her in person and ask clearly. If she does not send If someone did it, someone must have deliberately framed it. And this person knows that I am still in King Jing's Mansion, if this continues, it will not be safe for me to stay in King Jing's Mansion..."
"Your Majesty is right. The lower officials are also worried that once your Majesty is found to be living in Prince Jing's Mansion, the Emperor will also take his anger out on the Prince." Lord Liu only showed his loyalty to Zhao Kan.
Jiacai was no longer suspicious, and immediately went to the inner room to change his clothes, put on the veil, and left the mansion.She was careful when she left, and someone passed on her whereabouts to Zhao Kan.
At this time outside King Jing's Mansion, the guards hiding in the dark saw that she had actually come out, and then saw Mrs. Liu closely following her with a sachet on her body, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, turned and left.
Inside the Dali Temple.
Lin Jinhua looked at Zheng Lai, who was so angry that his veins were bulging, and then walked to the side table and sat down, and said slowly: "But if you want a way out, I can give it to you. After all, you have been fighting with your father for so many years , It’s been a long time since I’ve managed to get to this dignified appearance today, I don’t want to take another wrong step and lose everything.”
Zheng Lai sneered, forced himself to sit firmly against the wall, and said, "Do you think I will believe you?"
"Besides trusting me, do you think you have other ways to survive?"
"You are too confident..."
"It's not that I'm confident, it's because I've already calculated everything." Lin Jinhua was not in a hurry, he immediately agreed that a stinky stone like Zheng Lai would not turn back until he was hit by the south wall with his head bleeding.
Zheng Lai became more and more sarcastic and contemptuous: "It's just you?" No matter how powerful she is, she's just a teenage girl, even if she was lucky enough to design herself this time, can His Highness King Jing and respected people be included in the calculation?
Seeing that he was getting more and more unbelieving, Lin Jinhua was not in a hurry.
Not long after, Mo Yue came in from the outside.
Mo Yue glanced at Zheng Lai who was sitting limply leaning against the wall, raised her brows slightly, and then stepped forward and said to Lin Jinhua: "Miss, it's done, I'm out now."
"Let's go, it's time for us to go to the meeting. I haven't seen Jiacai for a long time, and I miss him a little bit." After Lin Jinhua finished speaking, she got up and went out of the prison regardless of Zheng Lai's expression.
When Zheng Lai heard this, he was shocked: "Lin Jinhua, do you know that Jiacai is not dead?"
"What?" Lin Jinhua looked back at him pretending not to hear clearly.
"Don't pretend, you know that Jiacai is not dead at all, and was hidden in the mansion by His Royal Highness King Jing, so that's why you say you planned this game, right?" After such a big circle, they still come around Jiacai people!
Lin Jinhua blinked, and at the corner, Xu Chengqing and the other two officials from Dali Temple had just arrived. This was what Jinhua had ordered before, telling him to wait for Mo Yue to come in before bringing other people in. to these.
Lin Jinhua only looked at Zheng Lai with a faint smile, and said meaningfully: "In other words, General Zheng knew that Jiacai was not dead at all, and was taken in by His Royal Highness King Jing, right?"
"Don't make circles with me, Lin Jinhua, let me tell you, if you dare to touch a talented person, you are looking for death!" Zheng Lai panicked when she saw her expressionless face, and she even slapped herself twice just now. Slap, she deserves it too!
Seeing that he was getting more and more angry, Lin Jinhua became happier instead: "Who wants to touch a talented person? I'm just going to meet old friends. The weather is fine today, so Jinhua won't be here to accompany General Zheng." After Lin Jinhua finished speaking, she turned and left go.
Turning the corner, I saw Xu Chengqing and two officials who were so frightened that they didn't know what to do, so I bowed slightly and said, "Master Xu, the daughter of the people will take my leave first."
"Yeah." Xu Chengqing glanced at Mo Yue Mo Feng beside her, and nodded reassuringly.
After she left, she looked at the two adults around her and said, "It seems that the ghost of Jiacai appeared in Zheng's residence last night is a rumor. If so, which adult please go to the palace to report? I heard that Princess Duanhui was still there early this morning. So I entered the palace."
"My lord, this..." Both of them hesitated. They are going to go, isn't it just to fight against Prince Jing's mansion? Although Dali Temple specializes in examining officials who have committed crimes, it never dares to fight against princes, especially, Princess Duanhui obviously entered the palace not only because of this matter...
Xu Chengqing looked at the two of them and saw that they were hesitating, and said: "Then I will go in person?"
"How dare you trouble your lord." The two were even more entangled. If lord Xu entered the palace in person, the emperor would think that the two of them had nothing to do, and everything was done by the newly appointed lord Xu, who was backed by lord Xu. It is also His Royal Highness King Ning.
After thinking about it, the two went together.
As soon as the people left, Xu Chengqing smiled lightly, and told the servants below: "Take care of Zheng Lai, no one is allowed to see him without my official's permission."
"Yes!"
Zheng Lai felt dumbfounded when he heard this voice.
After Lin Jinhua left Dali Temple, she didn't go back to Lin Mansion, but went to Dingnanhou Mansion instead.
Mrs. Dingnanhou was very surprised when she saw her coming, she waved away the little maid who was pinching her shoulders, looked at her, and said with a perfunctory smile: "Why is Miss Lin here, she is a rare visitor."
"I should come here to say hello to Mrs. Hou." Lin Jinhua looked at Mrs. Hou who was wearing a blue silk dress and lazily leaning on the beauty couch to enjoy the shade, and said with a smile, "Mrs. Hou looks good..." The corners of her eyes were charming She couldn't hide her intentions at all, and she had already started to use the method I taught her before she came here without any scruple.Using that method to keep a man is short-lived after all, and the long-term medication will have an impact on both husband and wife, not to mention that Mrs. Hou had a miscarriage not long ago.
"Really?" Mrs. Hou mentioned this, her heart was full of joy, and she felt happy after thinking that He Xiang was put into a prison and sentenced to death without saying anything, not to mention that Hou Ye is now sleeping here every night. .
Seeing her like this, Lin Jinhua naturally didn't say anything to spoil her interest, she just smiled and said, "I heard that there is a new Yinxiang Building in the capital, and the scented tea and powder inside are the most beautifying. I don't know if Madam has been there before?"
"I've heard it before, the weather is hot and stuffy these days, so I haven't had time to go..." Mrs. Hou saw how excited she was, and smiled: "Do you want to go and see?"
"Jinhua feels that the wedding is approaching, so she should dress up." Lin Jinhua lowered her eyes shyly.
Mrs. Hou looked at her delicate little face, she added a bit of charm when she was shy, that charm was different from her own, as if it was her own romantic charm, a blood-red long skirt made her skin white as snow, and her facial features were exquisite .
Seeing this, Mrs. Hou agreed, and it would be good to see what she eats and uses to maintain such good skin.
After thinking about it, I immediately asked someone to prepare a carriage.
But when he went out, he met Dingnanhou who 'just happened' to come back.
As soon as Lin Jinhua saw his figure, she stood behind Mrs. Dingnanhou, saluted with lowered eyes, and tried not to let him see her face clearly, but even so, the scorching gaze remained undiminished, as if she was going to kill her. Swallowed alive.
Seeing this, Mrs. Hou stepped forward and pulled Dingnanhou with a smile, "Master Hou, why are you back suddenly? Didn't you say you were going out to inspect?" Desire, the fire of jealousy in her heart seemed to burn her.
Marquis Dingnan only stared at Lin Jinhua. He hadn't seen her for a few days. Her body seemed to be better developed, and the red dress made her more attractive and attractive. It's a pity that she didn't succeed last time...
After thinking about it like this, he said, "Where are you going?"
"Jinhua said that he wanted to visit Yinxiang Tower." Mrs. Hou gritted her teeth slightly.
"Yinxianglou, Benhou happens to be..."
"If Mrs. Hou is inconvenient, the girl will leave first." Lin Jinhua's voice was cool.
Ding Nanhou heard her reluctance, but he didn't force it, he just looked at her and smiled deeply: "How could Mrs. Hou be unwilling? Women should wear makeup, especially with delicate skin like yours, you should take good care of it." Take care."
Mrs. Hou's heart fluttered when she heard it, but Lin Jinhua just clenched her palms secretly, and after going out of the Hou's mansion, she got into the carriage immediately, but when the carriage left, the burning gaze was still there, making her feel sick. Fan.
Ding Nanhou watched her carriage leave, so he stopped a handful of beads he was playing with, and said to others: "Is this Yinxianglou's stuff really good?"
"That sounds good."
"Go and find out whose property this is." Ding Nanhou thought of Lin Jinhua just now, and felt evil spirits surging under him.
The servant hurriedly responded, and then he turned around, just in time to see a maid in red, who directly hugged her and went to the nearest room.
In the carriage, Madam Hou went from a perfunctory smirk just now to a complete indifference now, and Lin Jinhua could only be dumbfounded.She thought that Marquis Dingnan would somewhat restrain everything, but she didn't expect that he would become more and more unscrupulous.
In this way, I arrived at Yinxiang Tower without talking all the way, and the matter was over.
Yinxiang Building is one street away from Pingxi Palace, but it is a very important street.
Lin Jinhua led Mrs. Hou to sit down in the private room facing the street on the second floor, and then said with a smile, "It's quite lively outside."
Mrs. Hou glanced at her with a lack of interest, and had no intention of talking to her at all.
Lin Jinhua was not in a hurry, so she asked someone to make tea and drank it slowly, just waiting for the good show to come on stage.
At this time, Lord Liu and Jiacai's carriage had already arrived outside Prince Pingxi's mansion, and he went to see the concubine in person, but waited in the sun for a long time, before he arrived, his body began to itch slowly.
He scratched left and right, but he didn't feel relieved at all. He thought for a while, and suddenly caught a glimpse of the sachet that the man gave him last night. Could it be that this sachet was filled with something itchy?Can this thing force out talented people?
There were waves of doubts in his heart, and suddenly there was a scream in the carriage.
He was startled, and hurried forward to ask in a low voice: "Your Majesty, what's the matter?"
At this moment, Jiacai just felt as if there were centipedes crawling all over her body. From top to bottom, from left to right, even the backs of her hands and arms were slowly cracked with bloodstains, ferocious like blood centipedes.
"Please call for a doctor! Please call for a doctor!" No matter how calm she was, she couldn't help shouting.
The skin she has taken care of for so many years, the face she has been taking care of carefully, she doesn't want to be inferior to Concubine Yin forever, doesn't want to be loved by the emperor forever, she never wants her skin and face to be destroyed...
Taking advantage of the curtain swinging with the wind, Mr. Liu quietly looked inside, and couldn't help but widen his eyes in horror. The bloodstains on Jiacai's body seemed to crawl out of hell, but he was fine. Could it be the medicine? Only for Jiacai people?
He became flustered in his heart, who was that person last night, who had such ability.
Seeing him stunned, Jiacai asked coldly, "What's wrong?"
"It's okay, I'm going to invite the doctor right now..." After speaking, someone from the Pingxi Palace had already arrived, and when they saw Master Liu, they asked coldly: "My concubine is busy, ask Master Liu, who wants to see my family?" Shizi Concubine? If it's nothing serious, I'll be gone today."
Mr. Liu hurriedly stepped forward and said, "He is the old concubine of the Shizi."
"An old friend?" The girl smiled lightly: "My family's concubine has many old friends, who is it?"
"People from the Xue family." Jiacai was a little upset, and lifted the curtain directly by raising her hand, but the moment the sun shone on her arm, she felt that the extremely itchy feeling on her arm seemed to have subsided.
She paused, and seeing the maid was looking at her hand in surprise, she hurriedly took it back, but fortunately she was wearing a veiled hat, so the maid couldn't see her face clearly.
After she withdrew her arm, she didn't have time to think about it, the arm that had been relieved just now seemed to be itching even more. Originally, there were only bloodstains on the skin, but now the skin and flesh were as hot as slowly cracking.
She had a bad heart, and she only hoped that the concubine Shizi could see her quickly and speak clearly, and that she could invite an imperial doctor when she was done. No matter how Lord Liu knocked on the door, no one answered inside.
"Your Majesty, this..." Master Liu returned to the carriage, also stunned.
"Forget it." Jiacai gritted his teeth, "Nine out of ten people who threatened you last night had nothing to do with them." They were afraid to even see themselves, how could they send someone to harm Zheng Lai.The imperial concubine also followed Pingxi Wang, as timid as a mouse!
She was in unbearable pain, and there seemed to be no extra space in her mind to think, so she just said: "Go back to Prince Jing's Mansion immediately!"
"Yes." Master Liu didn't delay any longer, but he was also smart, and said: "Madam, I have other things to deal with, I'm afraid I have to leave first."
Jiacai thought for a while, and felt that something was wrong, but the discomfort on her body occupied all her attention, so she only responded coldly, and hurriedly told her to leave.
On the way back, she tried her best to calm herself down, remembering that since she left the house last night, she felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't figure out what was wrong until the carriage hit another carriage head-on , her thoughts stopped abruptly.
She fell out of the carriage, and the veil hat on her head fell aside. Under the scorching sun, her head hit the hard ground heavily, and not far away was a child eating candied haws.
The first time the child saw her, his eyes widened, and then he turned pale and burst into tears: "Ghost...Mother, there are ghosts..."
Jia Cairen struggled to get up to get her veil hat, but one foot directly stepped on the veil hat to prevent her from taking it.
She looked up and saw a young man she didn't recognize: "Get out of the way!" She said coldly.
Looking at her face covered with bloodstains, Peanut stuttered in fright: "You...you are..."
On the second floor not far from here, Madam Dingnan Hou also took a lazy look when she heard the commotion. How could she not recognize people's faces, she was often in and out of the deep palace, and she was most familiar with these nobles in the palace.
"Why do you feel like a talented person?" Lin Jinhua said from the side: "Didn't you hear that the talented person has been bestowed to death?"
"Yeah, but it's broad daylight. Could it be that there are ghosts?" Mrs. Dingnanhou changed her mind, and immediately glanced at Lin Jinhua, and said, "It's getting late, I'll go back first."
Lin Jinhua acted as if she didn't know what she was going to do, and hurriedly got up and saluted: "Madam Hou, go slowly."
Mrs. Hou responded lightly, and hurriedly took the maids downstairs. When she left, she deliberately walked around behind the crowd to carefully look at the face of the blood-stained woman, her eyes, and her voice. , who is not Jiacai?
Thinking of this, he was only watched in secret, and he hurriedly got up and went back to Dingnanhou's mansion.
Lin Jinhua stood by the window, watched her leave quickly, and then lightly told Mo Yue on the side: "Keep an eye on Jiacai, don't let her run away."
"It's been arranged, she can't run away today." Mo Yue said immediately.
Lin Jinhua didn't say any more, just looked at the once high-ranking Jiacai people who were surrounded by people like monsters, and felt indifferent.The medicine was specially developed by her. She finally knew what the strange-smelling incense that had been burning in the queen's room was a spice that invaded the human body and made people unable to conceive. The spice itself was poisonous. People often go to the queen's palace to pay their respects, and they must be contaminated a lot. Now when they encounter their own special Tao sachet, it is poison on top of poison.
Jia Cairen tugged on the veil cap again. Although the bystanders didn't recognize who she was, the monster-like eyes made her feel even more uncomfortable.
The child cried and yelled 'ghost', which made her feel extremely embarrassed. Seeing this, she simply gave up the veiled cap, got up quickly and let the boy help the carriage up, and got in.
But when she was in the carriage, she felt more and more uncomfortable. Those bloody cuts seemed to be jumping, roaring and about to burst.
"Go back quickly..." She yelled at the boy, she was already feeling dizzy, she knew that she must have been tricked by the seemingly loyal Master Liu, when she went back, she would have to tear her to pieces!
The boys wanted to drive back in the carriage immediately, but the people who collided with their carriage began to refuse to let them go.
Jia Cairen was extremely upset, but he didn't know that even bigger troubles were coming.
In the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
The emperor was bored listening to Duanhui and Huijue talking about Zheng Lai's use of witchcraft, but in his opinion, these were not enough evidence, besides, he had always known Duanhui's domineering temperament, so he was only cold. Glancing at Huijue who was on one side, he said, "Master, did you really notice an evil spirit in Zheng's residence? And is it an evil spirit that endangers the son-in-law?"
"This..." Huijue quickly knelt down and said, "Yes, the poor monk did see it." How dare he deny it, otherwise it would be the crime of deceiving the emperor, but now he is already deceiving the emperor.
"Really?" The emperor's gaze turned cold, and Duan Hui immediately stepped forward and said, "Brother Emperor, don't you believe my sister? That's what my sister saw with her own eyes!"
The emperor glanced at her and felt more and more headache. He only rubbed his temples, and then said to Mr. An, "King Jing is waiting outside too?"
"Yes, it's about General Zheng..."
"Send it back, see you." The emperor had already noticed the intrigue among the princes, but Kan'er... was really stupid.
Eunuch An's eyes flickered slightly, and he quickly responded.
Seeing this, Duan Hui continued to speak, and then someone came to report: "Your Majesty."
"What's the matter?"
"It's the two adults from Dali Temple who asked to see me, saying that they have something very important to report." The eunuch said.
The emperor paused, looked at Duanhui and Huijue, and said: "The national teacher is going to wait in the outer hall, Duanhui will go back first, and Zheng Lai's matter will be strictly investigated."
Duan Hui knew that this was a perfunctory word, because he didn't believe it at all, or he was still blaming himself for hurting the son-in-law because he gave a concubine to the son-in-law.
She only gritted her teeth slightly, answered yes unwillingly, and then backed away.
When she was leaving, she happened to bump into two adults from Dali Temple, she looked at them with flustered expressions, could it be related to Zheng Lai?
She kept an eye out and deliberately slowed down, when she heard a questioning voice coming from inside.
"What's the purpose of you coming here to meet me?" The emperor raised the ink pen and asked.
"Return...report to the emperor..."
The two knelt down together and looked at each other, and one of them told what Zheng Lai said today that Jiacai was rescued by Zhao Kan.
After the words fell, he felt the deep cold breath in the hall, and hurriedly knelt down on the ground.
Outside the hall, when Duan Hui heard this, his expression turned cold immediately?Could it be that Zheng Lai colluded with Jiacai, and Jiacai instructed him to do all this?
She had a bad temper, so she thought about it, and walked out of the hall quickly without saying a word.
In the hall, the emperor's hand also stopped, and he looked at the two of them gloomyly: "Say it again?"
"Yes... Zheng Lai said it himself. The talented man was hidden in the mansion by His Royal Highness King Jing. He is not dead. I have not yet verified it..."
"Come here! Search Prince Jing's Mansion immediately!" Before they finished speaking, the emperor directly issued an imperial edict, and Zhao Kan, who was waiting outside at the moment, didn't even know what happened.
After Mrs. Dingnanhou went back, she found Dingnanhou and another woman on the bed, and her face was ashen.
Seeing her barging in, Dingnanhou was a little displeased: "Why did you come back suddenly? Have you bought the makeup?"
"Master Hou, I have something important to tell you."
"Tell me..."
"The idlers go out first." Madam Hou said coldly, looking at the woman nestled in Dingnanhou's arms.
Marquis Dingnan was a little displeased, but he didn't say much. After sending her away, he got up and put on his underwear, and asked her, "Can we talk now?"
Mrs. Dingnanhou let out a sigh of relief, and then told the story of seeing Jiacai on the street just now: "I can't make a mistake, that person is clearly Jiacai."
Marquis Dingnan paused for a moment on his leisurely expression: "Really?"
"Correct."
"That's interesting." After Dingnanhou finished speaking, he smiled coldly and ordered: "Come on, prepare your horse!" Whether it is using a talented person to threaten the Ninth Prince or protecting a talented person, they are all full-fledged It's easy to use.
Thinking so, he directly called his most elite guards.
Yinxiang upstairs.
Zhang Xiaofang held up the accounts with great interest and planned to show Lin Jinzheng, but found that she didn't seem to care about the bustle downstairs, she just sat and drank tea quietly, her appearance was extremely elegant.As soon as she walked at the door, she was filled with emotion. The demeanor of the ancient ladies is really deeply cultivated in her bones since she was a child.
She took a step forward and said with a smile, "Miss, this is the account for the past few months."
"Yeah." Lin Jinhua nodded slightly before turning to look at her: "Are all the shops in the capital standing still?"
"Well, the efficiency is not bad. In a few months, we can expand outwards. I have inspected several places, and they are very good." She was very excited when she thought of the huge amount of money.
Lin Jinhua smiled, but said no more.Now that she has the money, the next step is to prepare an organization that can help her do things.
After a while, he just turned his head and glanced at Jia Cairen who was trapped in the middle of the road. Jia Cairen seemed to have noticed her, and his eyes met with each other, only a cold contest.
"Lin Jinhua, it really is Lin Jinhua. From the very beginning, I knew she would be the biggest trouble!" Jiacai gritted his teeth, looked at the servant next to him, and said coldly, "Can't you leave? Opposite is just a commoner. Use the reputation of Prince Jing's Mansion to suppress it!"
The boy hesitated, and said in a low voice: "The prince said that you can't use his name."
Jiacai's face was slightly cold, but he seemed to be feeling more and more uncomfortable.
Just as she was thinking, there was a sudden noise outside, and she hurriedly opened the curtain to look, only to see a group of officers and soldiers coming here.
Could it be that Lin Jinhua attracted other people?
She was in a bad mood, and hurriedly got out of the carriage and planned to leave first, but then she heard the leader Gao Zhi coldly say: "By the order of His Highness King Ning, to arrest the fugitives, everyone here is not allowed to leave!" The officers and soldiers immediately surrounded everyone here tightly.
Lin Jinhua was surprised, Huaiyan has come back?Has the Zeng family's affairs been settled?
Before she could finish her thinking, she suddenly saw that Jia Cairen had come out of the carriage, and as if with the idea of perishing, she raised her head and pointed at Lin Jinhua: "Do you think I don't know that you are the one who is making trouble? Lin Jinhua, you are trying to talk to you Don't think that no one in the world knows that father conspired against him together!"
Lin Jinhua looked at the cruelty and hatred in her eyes, and her hands tightened slightly. Could it be that she was planning to die with him?
Jiacai really thought so, and now that Zhao Huaiyan's people are here, she can no longer escape, since the emperor only had doubts about Zhao Huaiyan at the beginning, now, she must confirm this suspicion!
"Miss, what should I do?" Mo Yue worried.
Lin Jinhua also frowned.
Jiacai saw that she was silent, and sneered: "You want to kill me, the only witness, thinking that you can cover up your Lin family's collusion with King Ning's former soldiers at the frontier to plot rebellion? Don't dream, I Xue Even if Jia dies, you won’t be granted your wish.”
"Really? It seems that Jiacai's death once is not enough."
The indifferent voice made the arrogant Jiacai tremble suddenly.
She turned sideways, and saw a tall figure in black brocade clothes coming from the crowd, who else was there besides Zhao Huaiyan!
"When did you return to the capital?"
"Before you expected." Zhao Huaiyan looked at the person in front of her indifferently. She only looked at herself with hatred, and she also had murderous intent towards Hua'er. It was in vain that he wanted to spare her life without telling his concubine mother.
"You—" Before Jiacai could finish speaking, Zhao Huaiyan stopped in his tracks.
"Great."
"Yes!" Seeing his cold look, Gao Zhi's heart tightened, and he hurried forward: "Come here, take down the fugitive!"
"It's up to you?" Jiacai snorted, and clenched the dagger she had prepared earlier. Ever since she was rescued by Zhao Kan, she had been always on guard against this day, but she never thought that this day would come like this fast.
Lin Jinhua noticed her movements and hurriedly said, "My lord, be careful!"
Seeing her committing suicide with a dagger, Zhao Huaiyan quickly stepped forward and pinched her wrist, and as expected, she turned her wrist and aimed at his heart: "Zhao Huaiyan, you are still soft-hearted..."
"puff--!"
Before she finished speaking, a sharp arrow flew over and pierced her heart directly from behind her, but she could only widen her eyes and stare at Zhao Huaiyan: "You—"
Zhao Huaiyan didn't speak, but supported her with one hand, and looked indifferently at the Marquis of Dingnan who had just put down his bow and arrow and came on horseback, with a cold expression on his face.
Dingnanhou got off his horse and smiled lightly: "The escort came late, please forgive me, my lord."
Forgive me...
Zhao Huaiyan looked at him with a smile that he couldn't hide, he obviously did it on purpose.Killing Jiacai people, no matter whether Jiacairen died because of him or not, Fuhuang and Zhao Qing will put the blame on him.
Lin Jinhua had already rushed down from the second floor. Seeing Dingnanhou gritting her teeth slightly, she clearly only wanted to use Dingnanhou's hand to take Jiacai away, but she didn't want him to take this opportunity to kill her, not to mention killing her. Huai Yan.
Ding Nanhou took a deep look at the angry Lin Jinhua, and raised his mouth slightly: "Miss Lin, has something happened to you?"
"Thank you, Lord Hou, for your concern."
"You don't have to thank me. Miss Lin not only drove away the Gu worms in Ben Hou's body, but also saved Ben Hou's child. It is only natural that Ben Hou cares about Miss Lin." Ding Nanhou said ambiguously, and the others listened. The look at Lin Jinhua also became strange.
Zhao Huaiyan asked Gao Tian to support the dead Jiacai, and then said coldly: "Marquis Dingnan has done meritorious service in escorting him, and he should be rewarded."
"Thank you, my lord..."
"Shooting and killing a talented person will be punished. Come here, immediately tie him up and send him to prison, waiting for his punishment." Zhao Huaiyan said directly.
Marquis Dingnan never thought that Zhao Huaiyan would lose face in front of so many people, so he couldn't help but frowned: "My lord, my minister..."
"I heard that Marquis Dingnan has nothing to do with his knees so far, and I will send you 30 beauties." After speaking, he glanced at the guards on the side.
The guards understood and immediately stepped forward to arrest Dingnanhou.
Dingnanhou couldn't tell that he was venting his personal anger, because he had just spoken lightly to Lin Jinhua.However, it can also be seen from this that Lin Jinhua is really his weakness!
"Then I will wait for the prince's reward." He is the Marquis of Dingnan who has made many military achievements. He shot and killed the guilty concubine in order to escort him. Even the emperor can't do anything to him, but now he will be ashamed in front of everyone... Lin Jinhua, she didn't even look at her!
After he finished speaking, Zhao Huaiyan actually ignored him, as if he didn't bother at all.
Marquis Dingnan fought in the north and south for so many years, when did he receive such anger, the smile on his face disappeared immediately, he broke away from the attendant's hand, and said with a sneer: "It seems that His Highness King Ning does not need the help of the minister at all. !" With the military power in his hands, no prince would want to win him over.What Zhao Huaiyan has always relied on is the queen. Now that the queen is equivalent to being abolished, doesn't he want to use his own strength?
After he finished speaking, Zhao Huaiyan glanced at him indifferently, as if looking down on him from above: "What Marquis Dingnan needs to do is to be loyal to the Jin Dynasty, not to be the king." He didn't take Dingnan Marquis seriously at all. inside.
Gao Zhi was embarrassed for Dingnanhou on one side. The prince has been famous for being lonely and cold-tempered for so many years. This is not because of his character, but because he doesn't need to care about these people at all. Have you been rampant in front of the lord? When you know the real ability of the lord in the future, he just cried and wanted to hug his thigh, but the lord would not bother.
"What are you doing in a daze, didn't you hear what the lord said?" Gao Zhi looked at the attendants and asked.
The attendants responded immediately, and Marquis Dingnan held back his breath, gritted his teeth, turned around and left.
Seeing that the person had left, Gao Zhi looked at the lifeless Jia Cairen he was supporting, frowned slightly, and looked at Lin Jinhua who was on the side: "Miss Lin..."
"This is the end of the matter, send people to the palace."
"Yes." Gao Zhi quickly responded, and then greeted the people and left.
Lin Jinhua saw Zhao Huaiyan enter the Yinxiang Building on one side, and when the crowd dispersed here, she winked at Peanut, and wanted to turn around to go in, but she grabbed her by the left shoulder.Just before Mo Yue stepped forward, she was punched open by that man.
Lin Jinhua was surprised, so she went to see people, her waist warmed up, and then her whole body was enveloped in Zhao Huaiyan's aura.
Only then did she have to look forward, Zhao Huaiyan's sword had been drawn out, she looked at the person wearing a ghost mask in front of her coldly, and said indifferently, "Who is it?"
The man who was holding Lin Jinhua's hand was already cut by Zhao Huaiyan. Seeing that Zhao Huaiyan was completely protecting Lin Jinhua, his eyes turned cold and he left quickly.
"My lord, do you want to chase?" the guard next to him came over and asked.
Zhao Huaiyan frowned slightly: "No need." He couldn't catch up. Seeing that the man chose to do it at this time, it was probably just for testing.
After finishing speaking, he looked at Lin Jinhua: "You must be careful during this time."
"I understand, but where is Dad..."
"Don't worry, I'm already in the capital." Zhao Huaiyan felt the warmth of her leaning against her body, and his eyes gradually became gentle. The guards on the side looked at him like this, hoping in his heart, if only the prince could always be so gentle.
However, Lin Jinhua felt that Zhao Huaiyan had a truly gentle heart under Zhao Huaiyan's cold shell, whether it was towards himself or towards the talented person and the ninth prince Zhao Qing who had betrayed him time and time again.
Before he could finish his thoughts, he heard the sound of horseshoes, and then saw a column of imperial guards coming over guarding a carriage.
The carriage stopped in front of Zhao Huaiyan, and Eunuch An came down from the inside. When he saw Zhao Huaiyan and Lin Jinhua, his gaze was slightly deep, and he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him: "My lord, the emperor invites you to enter the palace, and Miss Lin will go with me."
"Jinhua?" Zhao Huaiyan frowned, "What's the matter?"
Eunuch An thought for a while, and then said in a low voice: "After Ms. Lin met General Zheng, General Zheng was found tragically dead in Dali Temple, and died of poisoning."
"How could it be..." Lin Jinyu's palms tightened slightly. Her medicine would only make Zheng Lai incapacitated, but not fatal. Dali Temple is also Cousin Xu's territory. Who is it?
(End of this chapter)
Zhao Kan knew the news of Zheng Lai being sent to prison as soon as he woke up early in the morning.
The little servant stood outside the bead curtain and looked at the prince who had already sat up from the bed, tremblingly said: "My lord, how do you think about this matter? I received the news that Princess Duanhui brought the master of the country together early in the morning. Entering the palace, General Zheng may really get into trouble this time."
Zhao Kan's face was heavy, and the concubine on one side hurriedly got up to help him change his clothes.
After changing clothes, Zhao Kan put her aside, walked out from the room, glanced at the young man, and said in a deep voice, "Where is Jiacai? He asked Zheng Lai to do this, presumably She should have prepared a way."
"Master Liu is being interviewed by Jiacai. The person who identified General Zheng yesterday is also Master Liu."
"And him?" Zhao Kan became more and more confused. Since he dared to identify Zheng Lai, why did he dare to come to King Jing's Mansion this morning?
Zhao Kan thought for a while, and then said: "Go and watch first, and report any situation at any time, and I will enter the palace first." Although Zheng Lai is only a third-rank, but at least he holds real power, and it is better to have him around than not at all.
The little servant hurriedly responded, and after watching Zhao Kan go out, he hurried to Jiacai's yard again.
At that time, Mr. Liu will kneel in the flower hall.
"The lower official really dare not lie to the empress. It was indeed someone who threatened the lower official to do so last night. The lower official's wife is still too scared to go out. When the sky dawns, the lower official will report back immediately, please Your Majesty is very careful." Mr. Liu said sincerely.
Jiacai stared at him indifferently, stroking the tea in his hand lightly: "Since that's the case, why did Mr. Liu come to tell me, wouldn't it be better to go to find His Royal Highness King Jing?" After all, these people in King Jing's mansion were still Zhao Kan. It's just that the current situation is temporarily respectful to her for the purpose of mutual use, but it's not strange that Master Liu is looking for himself instead of Zhao Kan.
Master Liu's expression was not disturbed, he only gritted his teeth, as if there was something hard to say.
When Jiacai saw this, he glanced at the servants in the room, and said: "Everyone go outside and wait."
The servants retreated immediately.
As soon as they left, Jiacai looked at Master Liu with a slight chill: "Don't tell me now, you came to me first because you wanted to betray King Jing."
"Why would your empress think so?" Master Liu looked stunned and gave her a surprised look before continuing: "It is true that I have something to hide, but I am loyal to His Highness King Jing. If I didn't know that my empress and Your Highness are going to deal with outsiders together , and definitely won’t tell your mother about this first.” After Master Liu said this, he secretly beat a drum in his heart, but he has been pretending to be a pig and a tiger for a long time, and he knew how to deal with such doubts and questions. This person is not perfunctory.
When Jiacai heard this, his doubts disappeared, and he said: "Oh, is that so? Then tell me what you have to hide?"
Only then did Master Liu speak, and said: "Yes, I found out that the person who threatened me yesterday has something to do with your empress."
"It's about me?"
"Yes, Madam, please look at this." After speaking, he took out a waist badge from his sleeve, which was exactly the waist badge of Prince Pingxi's residence.This was left in his carriage when Mo Yue left yesterday. He had already noticed the relationship between Princess Pingxi and Jiacai after so many years in the capital.
Jia Cairen looked at the badge, and his indifferent expression was finally broken.
"How could it be her?"
"I don't even know the lower official. That person only threatened the lower official to harm Zheng Lai, and said that it was all for the good of the empress. The lower official was worried that someone was pretending to be someone from the Pingxi Palace, and wanted to use this to provoke the relationship between the empress and the prince, so he deliberately First come and report to the empress, let the empress go to verify, and then I can explain to the prince." Master Liu then lowered his head and said.
When Jiacai people heard this, even though they still had doubts, they believed it more.
She glanced at the person kneeling on the ground, and said in a deep voice, "Since that's the case, you should find a way to help me invite the Shizi Concubine here."
"The villain is only a thousand households of the sixth rank. I'm afraid he can't even enter the gate of Pingxi Palace." Mr. Liu wondered: "Besides, it is rumored that the concubine is arrogant. It’s the news that the empress is still alive.”
"What you said is not unreasonable..." Jiacai thought for a while and looked at him: "Since that is the case, it is not too late. You go to prepare the horse now. I will go to see her in person and ask clearly. If she does not send If someone did it, someone must have deliberately framed it. And this person knows that I am still in King Jing's Mansion, if this continues, it will not be safe for me to stay in King Jing's Mansion..."
"Your Majesty is right. The lower officials are also worried that once your Majesty is found to be living in Prince Jing's Mansion, the Emperor will also take his anger out on the Prince." Lord Liu only showed his loyalty to Zhao Kan.
Jiacai was no longer suspicious, and immediately went to the inner room to change his clothes, put on the veil, and left the mansion.She was careful when she left, and someone passed on her whereabouts to Zhao Kan.
At this time outside King Jing's Mansion, the guards hiding in the dark saw that she had actually come out, and then saw Mrs. Liu closely following her with a sachet on her body, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, turned and left.
Inside the Dali Temple.
Lin Jinhua looked at Zheng Lai, who was so angry that his veins were bulging, and then walked to the side table and sat down, and said slowly: "But if you want a way out, I can give it to you. After all, you have been fighting with your father for so many years , It’s been a long time since I’ve managed to get to this dignified appearance today, I don’t want to take another wrong step and lose everything.”
Zheng Lai sneered, forced himself to sit firmly against the wall, and said, "Do you think I will believe you?"
"Besides trusting me, do you think you have other ways to survive?"
"You are too confident..."
"It's not that I'm confident, it's because I've already calculated everything." Lin Jinhua was not in a hurry, he immediately agreed that a stinky stone like Zheng Lai would not turn back until he was hit by the south wall with his head bleeding.
Zheng Lai became more and more sarcastic and contemptuous: "It's just you?" No matter how powerful she is, she's just a teenage girl, even if she was lucky enough to design herself this time, can His Highness King Jing and respected people be included in the calculation?
Seeing that he was getting more and more unbelieving, Lin Jinhua was not in a hurry.
Not long after, Mo Yue came in from the outside.
Mo Yue glanced at Zheng Lai who was sitting limply leaning against the wall, raised her brows slightly, and then stepped forward and said to Lin Jinhua: "Miss, it's done, I'm out now."
"Let's go, it's time for us to go to the meeting. I haven't seen Jiacai for a long time, and I miss him a little bit." After Lin Jinhua finished speaking, she got up and went out of the prison regardless of Zheng Lai's expression.
When Zheng Lai heard this, he was shocked: "Lin Jinhua, do you know that Jiacai is not dead?"
"What?" Lin Jinhua looked back at him pretending not to hear clearly.
"Don't pretend, you know that Jiacai is not dead at all, and was hidden in the mansion by His Royal Highness King Jing, so that's why you say you planned this game, right?" After such a big circle, they still come around Jiacai people!
Lin Jinhua blinked, and at the corner, Xu Chengqing and the other two officials from Dali Temple had just arrived. This was what Jinhua had ordered before, telling him to wait for Mo Yue to come in before bringing other people in. to these.
Lin Jinhua only looked at Zheng Lai with a faint smile, and said meaningfully: "In other words, General Zheng knew that Jiacai was not dead at all, and was taken in by His Royal Highness King Jing, right?"
"Don't make circles with me, Lin Jinhua, let me tell you, if you dare to touch a talented person, you are looking for death!" Zheng Lai panicked when she saw her expressionless face, and she even slapped herself twice just now. Slap, she deserves it too!
Seeing that he was getting more and more angry, Lin Jinhua became happier instead: "Who wants to touch a talented person? I'm just going to meet old friends. The weather is fine today, so Jinhua won't be here to accompany General Zheng." After Lin Jinhua finished speaking, she turned and left go.
Turning the corner, I saw Xu Chengqing and two officials who were so frightened that they didn't know what to do, so I bowed slightly and said, "Master Xu, the daughter of the people will take my leave first."
"Yeah." Xu Chengqing glanced at Mo Yue Mo Feng beside her, and nodded reassuringly.
After she left, she looked at the two adults around her and said, "It seems that the ghost of Jiacai appeared in Zheng's residence last night is a rumor. If so, which adult please go to the palace to report? I heard that Princess Duanhui was still there early this morning. So I entered the palace."
"My lord, this..." Both of them hesitated. They are going to go, isn't it just to fight against Prince Jing's mansion? Although Dali Temple specializes in examining officials who have committed crimes, it never dares to fight against princes, especially, Princess Duanhui obviously entered the palace not only because of this matter...
Xu Chengqing looked at the two of them and saw that they were hesitating, and said: "Then I will go in person?"
"How dare you trouble your lord." The two were even more entangled. If lord Xu entered the palace in person, the emperor would think that the two of them had nothing to do, and everything was done by the newly appointed lord Xu, who was backed by lord Xu. It is also His Royal Highness King Ning.
After thinking about it, the two went together.
As soon as the people left, Xu Chengqing smiled lightly, and told the servants below: "Take care of Zheng Lai, no one is allowed to see him without my official's permission."
"Yes!"
Zheng Lai felt dumbfounded when he heard this voice.
After Lin Jinhua left Dali Temple, she didn't go back to Lin Mansion, but went to Dingnanhou Mansion instead.
Mrs. Dingnanhou was very surprised when she saw her coming, she waved away the little maid who was pinching her shoulders, looked at her, and said with a perfunctory smile: "Why is Miss Lin here, she is a rare visitor."
"I should come here to say hello to Mrs. Hou." Lin Jinhua looked at Mrs. Hou who was wearing a blue silk dress and lazily leaning on the beauty couch to enjoy the shade, and said with a smile, "Mrs. Hou looks good..." The corners of her eyes were charming She couldn't hide her intentions at all, and she had already started to use the method I taught her before she came here without any scruple.Using that method to keep a man is short-lived after all, and the long-term medication will have an impact on both husband and wife, not to mention that Mrs. Hou had a miscarriage not long ago.
"Really?" Mrs. Hou mentioned this, her heart was full of joy, and she felt happy after thinking that He Xiang was put into a prison and sentenced to death without saying anything, not to mention that Hou Ye is now sleeping here every night. .
Seeing her like this, Lin Jinhua naturally didn't say anything to spoil her interest, she just smiled and said, "I heard that there is a new Yinxiang Building in the capital, and the scented tea and powder inside are the most beautifying. I don't know if Madam has been there before?"
"I've heard it before, the weather is hot and stuffy these days, so I haven't had time to go..." Mrs. Hou saw how excited she was, and smiled: "Do you want to go and see?"
"Jinhua feels that the wedding is approaching, so she should dress up." Lin Jinhua lowered her eyes shyly.
Mrs. Hou looked at her delicate little face, she added a bit of charm when she was shy, that charm was different from her own, as if it was her own romantic charm, a blood-red long skirt made her skin white as snow, and her facial features were exquisite .
Seeing this, Mrs. Hou agreed, and it would be good to see what she eats and uses to maintain such good skin.
After thinking about it, I immediately asked someone to prepare a carriage.
But when he went out, he met Dingnanhou who 'just happened' to come back.
As soon as Lin Jinhua saw his figure, she stood behind Mrs. Dingnanhou, saluted with lowered eyes, and tried not to let him see her face clearly, but even so, the scorching gaze remained undiminished, as if she was going to kill her. Swallowed alive.
Seeing this, Mrs. Hou stepped forward and pulled Dingnanhou with a smile, "Master Hou, why are you back suddenly? Didn't you say you were going out to inspect?" Desire, the fire of jealousy in her heart seemed to burn her.
Marquis Dingnan only stared at Lin Jinhua. He hadn't seen her for a few days. Her body seemed to be better developed, and the red dress made her more attractive and attractive. It's a pity that she didn't succeed last time...
After thinking about it like this, he said, "Where are you going?"
"Jinhua said that he wanted to visit Yinxiang Tower." Mrs. Hou gritted her teeth slightly.
"Yinxianglou, Benhou happens to be..."
"If Mrs. Hou is inconvenient, the girl will leave first." Lin Jinhua's voice was cool.
Ding Nanhou heard her reluctance, but he didn't force it, he just looked at her and smiled deeply: "How could Mrs. Hou be unwilling? Women should wear makeup, especially with delicate skin like yours, you should take good care of it." Take care."
Mrs. Hou's heart fluttered when she heard it, but Lin Jinhua just clenched her palms secretly, and after going out of the Hou's mansion, she got into the carriage immediately, but when the carriage left, the burning gaze was still there, making her feel sick. Fan.
Ding Nanhou watched her carriage leave, so he stopped a handful of beads he was playing with, and said to others: "Is this Yinxianglou's stuff really good?"
"That sounds good."
"Go and find out whose property this is." Ding Nanhou thought of Lin Jinhua just now, and felt evil spirits surging under him.
The servant hurriedly responded, and then he turned around, just in time to see a maid in red, who directly hugged her and went to the nearest room.
In the carriage, Madam Hou went from a perfunctory smirk just now to a complete indifference now, and Lin Jinhua could only be dumbfounded.She thought that Marquis Dingnan would somewhat restrain everything, but she didn't expect that he would become more and more unscrupulous.
In this way, I arrived at Yinxiang Tower without talking all the way, and the matter was over.
Yinxiang Building is one street away from Pingxi Palace, but it is a very important street.
Lin Jinhua led Mrs. Hou to sit down in the private room facing the street on the second floor, and then said with a smile, "It's quite lively outside."
Mrs. Hou glanced at her with a lack of interest, and had no intention of talking to her at all.
Lin Jinhua was not in a hurry, so she asked someone to make tea and drank it slowly, just waiting for the good show to come on stage.
At this time, Lord Liu and Jiacai's carriage had already arrived outside Prince Pingxi's mansion, and he went to see the concubine in person, but waited in the sun for a long time, before he arrived, his body began to itch slowly.
He scratched left and right, but he didn't feel relieved at all. He thought for a while, and suddenly caught a glimpse of the sachet that the man gave him last night. Could it be that this sachet was filled with something itchy?Can this thing force out talented people?
There were waves of doubts in his heart, and suddenly there was a scream in the carriage.
He was startled, and hurried forward to ask in a low voice: "Your Majesty, what's the matter?"
At this moment, Jiacai just felt as if there were centipedes crawling all over her body. From top to bottom, from left to right, even the backs of her hands and arms were slowly cracked with bloodstains, ferocious like blood centipedes.
"Please call for a doctor! Please call for a doctor!" No matter how calm she was, she couldn't help shouting.
The skin she has taken care of for so many years, the face she has been taking care of carefully, she doesn't want to be inferior to Concubine Yin forever, doesn't want to be loved by the emperor forever, she never wants her skin and face to be destroyed...
Taking advantage of the curtain swinging with the wind, Mr. Liu quietly looked inside, and couldn't help but widen his eyes in horror. The bloodstains on Jiacai's body seemed to crawl out of hell, but he was fine. Could it be the medicine? Only for Jiacai people?
He became flustered in his heart, who was that person last night, who had such ability.
Seeing him stunned, Jiacai asked coldly, "What's wrong?"
"It's okay, I'm going to invite the doctor right now..." After speaking, someone from the Pingxi Palace had already arrived, and when they saw Master Liu, they asked coldly: "My concubine is busy, ask Master Liu, who wants to see my family?" Shizi Concubine? If it's nothing serious, I'll be gone today."
Mr. Liu hurriedly stepped forward and said, "He is the old concubine of the Shizi."
"An old friend?" The girl smiled lightly: "My family's concubine has many old friends, who is it?"
"People from the Xue family." Jiacai was a little upset, and lifted the curtain directly by raising her hand, but the moment the sun shone on her arm, she felt that the extremely itchy feeling on her arm seemed to have subsided.
She paused, and seeing the maid was looking at her hand in surprise, she hurriedly took it back, but fortunately she was wearing a veiled hat, so the maid couldn't see her face clearly.
After she withdrew her arm, she didn't have time to think about it, the arm that had been relieved just now seemed to be itching even more. Originally, there were only bloodstains on the skin, but now the skin and flesh were as hot as slowly cracking.
She had a bad heart, and she only hoped that the concubine Shizi could see her quickly and speak clearly, and that she could invite an imperial doctor when she was done. No matter how Lord Liu knocked on the door, no one answered inside.
"Your Majesty, this..." Master Liu returned to the carriage, also stunned.
"Forget it." Jiacai gritted his teeth, "Nine out of ten people who threatened you last night had nothing to do with them." They were afraid to even see themselves, how could they send someone to harm Zheng Lai.The imperial concubine also followed Pingxi Wang, as timid as a mouse!
She was in unbearable pain, and there seemed to be no extra space in her mind to think, so she just said: "Go back to Prince Jing's Mansion immediately!"
"Yes." Master Liu didn't delay any longer, but he was also smart, and said: "Madam, I have other things to deal with, I'm afraid I have to leave first."
Jiacai thought for a while, and felt that something was wrong, but the discomfort on her body occupied all her attention, so she only responded coldly, and hurriedly told her to leave.
On the way back, she tried her best to calm herself down, remembering that since she left the house last night, she felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't figure out what was wrong until the carriage hit another carriage head-on , her thoughts stopped abruptly.
She fell out of the carriage, and the veil hat on her head fell aside. Under the scorching sun, her head hit the hard ground heavily, and not far away was a child eating candied haws.
The first time the child saw her, his eyes widened, and then he turned pale and burst into tears: "Ghost...Mother, there are ghosts..."
Jia Cairen struggled to get up to get her veil hat, but one foot directly stepped on the veil hat to prevent her from taking it.
She looked up and saw a young man she didn't recognize: "Get out of the way!" She said coldly.
Looking at her face covered with bloodstains, Peanut stuttered in fright: "You...you are..."
On the second floor not far from here, Madam Dingnan Hou also took a lazy look when she heard the commotion. How could she not recognize people's faces, she was often in and out of the deep palace, and she was most familiar with these nobles in the palace.
"Why do you feel like a talented person?" Lin Jinhua said from the side: "Didn't you hear that the talented person has been bestowed to death?"
"Yeah, but it's broad daylight. Could it be that there are ghosts?" Mrs. Dingnanhou changed her mind, and immediately glanced at Lin Jinhua, and said, "It's getting late, I'll go back first."
Lin Jinhua acted as if she didn't know what she was going to do, and hurriedly got up and saluted: "Madam Hou, go slowly."
Mrs. Hou responded lightly, and hurriedly took the maids downstairs. When she left, she deliberately walked around behind the crowd to carefully look at the face of the blood-stained woman, her eyes, and her voice. , who is not Jiacai?
Thinking of this, he was only watched in secret, and he hurriedly got up and went back to Dingnanhou's mansion.
Lin Jinhua stood by the window, watched her leave quickly, and then lightly told Mo Yue on the side: "Keep an eye on Jiacai, don't let her run away."
"It's been arranged, she can't run away today." Mo Yue said immediately.
Lin Jinhua didn't say any more, just looked at the once high-ranking Jiacai people who were surrounded by people like monsters, and felt indifferent.The medicine was specially developed by her. She finally knew what the strange-smelling incense that had been burning in the queen's room was a spice that invaded the human body and made people unable to conceive. The spice itself was poisonous. People often go to the queen's palace to pay their respects, and they must be contaminated a lot. Now when they encounter their own special Tao sachet, it is poison on top of poison.
Jia Cairen tugged on the veil cap again. Although the bystanders didn't recognize who she was, the monster-like eyes made her feel even more uncomfortable.
The child cried and yelled 'ghost', which made her feel extremely embarrassed. Seeing this, she simply gave up the veiled cap, got up quickly and let the boy help the carriage up, and got in.
But when she was in the carriage, she felt more and more uncomfortable. Those bloody cuts seemed to be jumping, roaring and about to burst.
"Go back quickly..." She yelled at the boy, she was already feeling dizzy, she knew that she must have been tricked by the seemingly loyal Master Liu, when she went back, she would have to tear her to pieces!
The boys wanted to drive back in the carriage immediately, but the people who collided with their carriage began to refuse to let them go.
Jia Cairen was extremely upset, but he didn't know that even bigger troubles were coming.
In the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
The emperor was bored listening to Duanhui and Huijue talking about Zheng Lai's use of witchcraft, but in his opinion, these were not enough evidence, besides, he had always known Duanhui's domineering temperament, so he was only cold. Glancing at Huijue who was on one side, he said, "Master, did you really notice an evil spirit in Zheng's residence? And is it an evil spirit that endangers the son-in-law?"
"This..." Huijue quickly knelt down and said, "Yes, the poor monk did see it." How dare he deny it, otherwise it would be the crime of deceiving the emperor, but now he is already deceiving the emperor.
"Really?" The emperor's gaze turned cold, and Duan Hui immediately stepped forward and said, "Brother Emperor, don't you believe my sister? That's what my sister saw with her own eyes!"
The emperor glanced at her and felt more and more headache. He only rubbed his temples, and then said to Mr. An, "King Jing is waiting outside too?"
"Yes, it's about General Zheng..."
"Send it back, see you." The emperor had already noticed the intrigue among the princes, but Kan'er... was really stupid.
Eunuch An's eyes flickered slightly, and he quickly responded.
Seeing this, Duan Hui continued to speak, and then someone came to report: "Your Majesty."
"What's the matter?"
"It's the two adults from Dali Temple who asked to see me, saying that they have something very important to report." The eunuch said.
The emperor paused, looked at Duanhui and Huijue, and said: "The national teacher is going to wait in the outer hall, Duanhui will go back first, and Zheng Lai's matter will be strictly investigated."
Duan Hui knew that this was a perfunctory word, because he didn't believe it at all, or he was still blaming himself for hurting the son-in-law because he gave a concubine to the son-in-law.
She only gritted her teeth slightly, answered yes unwillingly, and then backed away.
When she was leaving, she happened to bump into two adults from Dali Temple, she looked at them with flustered expressions, could it be related to Zheng Lai?
She kept an eye out and deliberately slowed down, when she heard a questioning voice coming from inside.
"What's the purpose of you coming here to meet me?" The emperor raised the ink pen and asked.
"Return...report to the emperor..."
The two knelt down together and looked at each other, and one of them told what Zheng Lai said today that Jiacai was rescued by Zhao Kan.
After the words fell, he felt the deep cold breath in the hall, and hurriedly knelt down on the ground.
Outside the hall, when Duan Hui heard this, his expression turned cold immediately?Could it be that Zheng Lai colluded with Jiacai, and Jiacai instructed him to do all this?
She had a bad temper, so she thought about it, and walked out of the hall quickly without saying a word.
In the hall, the emperor's hand also stopped, and he looked at the two of them gloomyly: "Say it again?"
"Yes... Zheng Lai said it himself. The talented man was hidden in the mansion by His Royal Highness King Jing. He is not dead. I have not yet verified it..."
"Come here! Search Prince Jing's Mansion immediately!" Before they finished speaking, the emperor directly issued an imperial edict, and Zhao Kan, who was waiting outside at the moment, didn't even know what happened.
After Mrs. Dingnanhou went back, she found Dingnanhou and another woman on the bed, and her face was ashen.
Seeing her barging in, Dingnanhou was a little displeased: "Why did you come back suddenly? Have you bought the makeup?"
"Master Hou, I have something important to tell you."
"Tell me..."
"The idlers go out first." Madam Hou said coldly, looking at the woman nestled in Dingnanhou's arms.
Marquis Dingnan was a little displeased, but he didn't say much. After sending her away, he got up and put on his underwear, and asked her, "Can we talk now?"
Mrs. Dingnanhou let out a sigh of relief, and then told the story of seeing Jiacai on the street just now: "I can't make a mistake, that person is clearly Jiacai."
Marquis Dingnan paused for a moment on his leisurely expression: "Really?"
"Correct."
"That's interesting." After Dingnanhou finished speaking, he smiled coldly and ordered: "Come on, prepare your horse!" Whether it is using a talented person to threaten the Ninth Prince or protecting a talented person, they are all full-fledged It's easy to use.
Thinking so, he directly called his most elite guards.
Yinxiang upstairs.
Zhang Xiaofang held up the accounts with great interest and planned to show Lin Jinzheng, but found that she didn't seem to care about the bustle downstairs, she just sat and drank tea quietly, her appearance was extremely elegant.As soon as she walked at the door, she was filled with emotion. The demeanor of the ancient ladies is really deeply cultivated in her bones since she was a child.
She took a step forward and said with a smile, "Miss, this is the account for the past few months."
"Yeah." Lin Jinhua nodded slightly before turning to look at her: "Are all the shops in the capital standing still?"
"Well, the efficiency is not bad. In a few months, we can expand outwards. I have inspected several places, and they are very good." She was very excited when she thought of the huge amount of money.
Lin Jinhua smiled, but said no more.Now that she has the money, the next step is to prepare an organization that can help her do things.
After a while, he just turned his head and glanced at Jia Cairen who was trapped in the middle of the road. Jia Cairen seemed to have noticed her, and his eyes met with each other, only a cold contest.
"Lin Jinhua, it really is Lin Jinhua. From the very beginning, I knew she would be the biggest trouble!" Jiacai gritted his teeth, looked at the servant next to him, and said coldly, "Can't you leave? Opposite is just a commoner. Use the reputation of Prince Jing's Mansion to suppress it!"
The boy hesitated, and said in a low voice: "The prince said that you can't use his name."
Jiacai's face was slightly cold, but he seemed to be feeling more and more uncomfortable.
Just as she was thinking, there was a sudden noise outside, and she hurriedly opened the curtain to look, only to see a group of officers and soldiers coming here.
Could it be that Lin Jinhua attracted other people?
She was in a bad mood, and hurriedly got out of the carriage and planned to leave first, but then she heard the leader Gao Zhi coldly say: "By the order of His Highness King Ning, to arrest the fugitives, everyone here is not allowed to leave!" The officers and soldiers immediately surrounded everyone here tightly.
Lin Jinhua was surprised, Huaiyan has come back?Has the Zeng family's affairs been settled?
Before she could finish her thinking, she suddenly saw that Jia Cairen had come out of the carriage, and as if with the idea of perishing, she raised her head and pointed at Lin Jinhua: "Do you think I don't know that you are the one who is making trouble? Lin Jinhua, you are trying to talk to you Don't think that no one in the world knows that father conspired against him together!"
Lin Jinhua looked at the cruelty and hatred in her eyes, and her hands tightened slightly. Could it be that she was planning to die with him?
Jiacai really thought so, and now that Zhao Huaiyan's people are here, she can no longer escape, since the emperor only had doubts about Zhao Huaiyan at the beginning, now, she must confirm this suspicion!
"Miss, what should I do?" Mo Yue worried.
Lin Jinhua also frowned.
Jiacai saw that she was silent, and sneered: "You want to kill me, the only witness, thinking that you can cover up your Lin family's collusion with King Ning's former soldiers at the frontier to plot rebellion? Don't dream, I Xue Even if Jia dies, you won’t be granted your wish.”
"Really? It seems that Jiacai's death once is not enough."
The indifferent voice made the arrogant Jiacai tremble suddenly.
She turned sideways, and saw a tall figure in black brocade clothes coming from the crowd, who else was there besides Zhao Huaiyan!
"When did you return to the capital?"
"Before you expected." Zhao Huaiyan looked at the person in front of her indifferently. She only looked at herself with hatred, and she also had murderous intent towards Hua'er. It was in vain that he wanted to spare her life without telling his concubine mother.
"You—" Before Jiacai could finish speaking, Zhao Huaiyan stopped in his tracks.
"Great."
"Yes!" Seeing his cold look, Gao Zhi's heart tightened, and he hurried forward: "Come here, take down the fugitive!"
"It's up to you?" Jiacai snorted, and clenched the dagger she had prepared earlier. Ever since she was rescued by Zhao Kan, she had been always on guard against this day, but she never thought that this day would come like this fast.
Lin Jinhua noticed her movements and hurriedly said, "My lord, be careful!"
Seeing her committing suicide with a dagger, Zhao Huaiyan quickly stepped forward and pinched her wrist, and as expected, she turned her wrist and aimed at his heart: "Zhao Huaiyan, you are still soft-hearted..."
"puff--!"
Before she finished speaking, a sharp arrow flew over and pierced her heart directly from behind her, but she could only widen her eyes and stare at Zhao Huaiyan: "You—"
Zhao Huaiyan didn't speak, but supported her with one hand, and looked indifferently at the Marquis of Dingnan who had just put down his bow and arrow and came on horseback, with a cold expression on his face.
Dingnanhou got off his horse and smiled lightly: "The escort came late, please forgive me, my lord."
Forgive me...
Zhao Huaiyan looked at him with a smile that he couldn't hide, he obviously did it on purpose.Killing Jiacai people, no matter whether Jiacairen died because of him or not, Fuhuang and Zhao Qing will put the blame on him.
Lin Jinhua had already rushed down from the second floor. Seeing Dingnanhou gritting her teeth slightly, she clearly only wanted to use Dingnanhou's hand to take Jiacai away, but she didn't want him to take this opportunity to kill her, not to mention killing her. Huai Yan.
Ding Nanhou took a deep look at the angry Lin Jinhua, and raised his mouth slightly: "Miss Lin, has something happened to you?"
"Thank you, Lord Hou, for your concern."
"You don't have to thank me. Miss Lin not only drove away the Gu worms in Ben Hou's body, but also saved Ben Hou's child. It is only natural that Ben Hou cares about Miss Lin." Ding Nanhou said ambiguously, and the others listened. The look at Lin Jinhua also became strange.
Zhao Huaiyan asked Gao Tian to support the dead Jiacai, and then said coldly: "Marquis Dingnan has done meritorious service in escorting him, and he should be rewarded."
"Thank you, my lord..."
"Shooting and killing a talented person will be punished. Come here, immediately tie him up and send him to prison, waiting for his punishment." Zhao Huaiyan said directly.
Marquis Dingnan never thought that Zhao Huaiyan would lose face in front of so many people, so he couldn't help but frowned: "My lord, my minister..."
"I heard that Marquis Dingnan has nothing to do with his knees so far, and I will send you 30 beauties." After speaking, he glanced at the guards on the side.
The guards understood and immediately stepped forward to arrest Dingnanhou.
Dingnanhou couldn't tell that he was venting his personal anger, because he had just spoken lightly to Lin Jinhua.However, it can also be seen from this that Lin Jinhua is really his weakness!
"Then I will wait for the prince's reward." He is the Marquis of Dingnan who has made many military achievements. He shot and killed the guilty concubine in order to escort him. Even the emperor can't do anything to him, but now he will be ashamed in front of everyone... Lin Jinhua, she didn't even look at her!
After he finished speaking, Zhao Huaiyan actually ignored him, as if he didn't bother at all.
Marquis Dingnan fought in the north and south for so many years, when did he receive such anger, the smile on his face disappeared immediately, he broke away from the attendant's hand, and said with a sneer: "It seems that His Highness King Ning does not need the help of the minister at all. !" With the military power in his hands, no prince would want to win him over.What Zhao Huaiyan has always relied on is the queen. Now that the queen is equivalent to being abolished, doesn't he want to use his own strength?
After he finished speaking, Zhao Huaiyan glanced at him indifferently, as if looking down on him from above: "What Marquis Dingnan needs to do is to be loyal to the Jin Dynasty, not to be the king." He didn't take Dingnan Marquis seriously at all. inside.
Gao Zhi was embarrassed for Dingnanhou on one side. The prince has been famous for being lonely and cold-tempered for so many years. This is not because of his character, but because he doesn't need to care about these people at all. Have you been rampant in front of the lord? When you know the real ability of the lord in the future, he just cried and wanted to hug his thigh, but the lord would not bother.
"What are you doing in a daze, didn't you hear what the lord said?" Gao Zhi looked at the attendants and asked.
The attendants responded immediately, and Marquis Dingnan held back his breath, gritted his teeth, turned around and left.
Seeing that the person had left, Gao Zhi looked at the lifeless Jia Cairen he was supporting, frowned slightly, and looked at Lin Jinhua who was on the side: "Miss Lin..."
"This is the end of the matter, send people to the palace."
"Yes." Gao Zhi quickly responded, and then greeted the people and left.
Lin Jinhua saw Zhao Huaiyan enter the Yinxiang Building on one side, and when the crowd dispersed here, she winked at Peanut, and wanted to turn around to go in, but she grabbed her by the left shoulder.Just before Mo Yue stepped forward, she was punched open by that man.
Lin Jinhua was surprised, so she went to see people, her waist warmed up, and then her whole body was enveloped in Zhao Huaiyan's aura.
Only then did she have to look forward, Zhao Huaiyan's sword had been drawn out, she looked at the person wearing a ghost mask in front of her coldly, and said indifferently, "Who is it?"
The man who was holding Lin Jinhua's hand was already cut by Zhao Huaiyan. Seeing that Zhao Huaiyan was completely protecting Lin Jinhua, his eyes turned cold and he left quickly.
"My lord, do you want to chase?" the guard next to him came over and asked.
Zhao Huaiyan frowned slightly: "No need." He couldn't catch up. Seeing that the man chose to do it at this time, it was probably just for testing.
After finishing speaking, he looked at Lin Jinhua: "You must be careful during this time."
"I understand, but where is Dad..."
"Don't worry, I'm already in the capital." Zhao Huaiyan felt the warmth of her leaning against her body, and his eyes gradually became gentle. The guards on the side looked at him like this, hoping in his heart, if only the prince could always be so gentle.
However, Lin Jinhua felt that Zhao Huaiyan had a truly gentle heart under Zhao Huaiyan's cold shell, whether it was towards himself or towards the talented person and the ninth prince Zhao Qing who had betrayed him time and time again.
Before he could finish his thoughts, he heard the sound of horseshoes, and then saw a column of imperial guards coming over guarding a carriage.
The carriage stopped in front of Zhao Huaiyan, and Eunuch An came down from the inside. When he saw Zhao Huaiyan and Lin Jinhua, his gaze was slightly deep, and he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him: "My lord, the emperor invites you to enter the palace, and Miss Lin will go with me."
"Jinhua?" Zhao Huaiyan frowned, "What's the matter?"
Eunuch An thought for a while, and then said in a low voice: "After Ms. Lin met General Zheng, General Zheng was found tragically dead in Dali Temple, and died of poisoning."
"How could it be..." Lin Jinyu's palms tightened slightly. Her medicine would only make Zheng Lai incapacitated, but not fatal. Dali Temple is also Cousin Xu's territory. Who is it?
