Chapter 94
With Yan Ziang's order, all the officers and soldiers raised their knives and killed them.
Seeing this, Lin Jinhua hurriedly turned her head to look at Zhao Huaiyan.She can still think of other things, but there are so many killers here, she can't do anything at all.
Zhao Huaiyan saw her look, then looked at Lin Jincheng, jumped off the horse, and quickly rushed to Lin Jincheng, everyone's swords stopped suddenly.
Panting slightly, Lin Jincheng asked Zhao Huaiyan in a low voice: "My lord, don't worry about me."
"It's okay." It's just delaying time, and Uncle Lin should be here soon.
Yan Ziang's expression turned cold, and he smiled at Zhao Huaiyan, "Your Highness is going to disobey the Emperor's order?"
"Father asked you to trample on Mrs. Lin's tomb and kill General Lin? Why does this king think that Mr. Yan seems to be using the imperial decree to kill people and silence him?" Zhao Huaiyan looked at him coldly, his expression indifferent.
Yan Ziang hurriedly cupped his hands: "I don't mean to be an official, but it is a fact that General Lin stopped me from entering the house to search..."
"What fact? I'm just preventing you from trampling on my mother's grave. Lord Yan, if you want to search, you can do it as you go, but you insist on stepping on the grave to insult the undead, and even use the emperor's order to kill me. I must report the truth to the emperor!" Lin Jincheng saw Zhao Huaiyan say this, and understood what he meant, so he just stepped out and said coldly.
Yan Ziang's face turned slightly blue, he only glanced at the people around him, and ordered in a low voice: "Take someone to search."
"Yes." The man was about to go immediately, but before he took two steps, the sword in Zhao Huaiyan's hand was already on his neck, preventing him from going any further.
"My lord, what do you mean by this?" Yan Ziang felt more and more that something was wrong. The room must be empty, otherwise, why would they obstruct him again and again, and His Royal Highness Yu Wang said that Lin Luzhi never returned to Beijing, even if they delayed it, it would be futile .
Zhao Huaiyan didn't even look at him, just turned the sword slightly in his hand, and stabbed directly at the man's shoulder, the man subconsciously flicked Zhao Huaiyan's sword away with his backhand and took three steps back, his movements were very neat.
Lin Jinhua watched from afar, her brows raised slightly. An ordinary soldier wouldn't have such a quick reaction.
"Which battalion do you belong to?" Zhao Huaiyan put away the sword in his hand and asked calmly.
The man's expression tightened, and he hurriedly looked at Yan Ziang, Yan Ziang frowned, cupped his hands and said: "This time all the soldiers were drawn from the city gate guard army by the order of the emperor..."
"I'm the third-rank general of the guard army. Why didn't I know that there are such powerful people under my command? Could it be that I have buried talents?" Lin Jincheng directly exposed it.
When Yan Ziang heard the words, he suddenly realized that they were testing him.
He hurriedly said, "My lord, this is..."
"All guards obey orders." Zhao Huaiyan ignored his voice and spoke directly.
Hearing this, half of the guards looked at each other hesitantly, while the rest looked at Yan Ziang in unison.
Zhao Huaiyan had already identified which people were impostors, and looked behind the crowd lightly. Gao Zhi had already made preparations and rushed over with his sword in hand.Those people didn't get Yan Ziang's order, and in order to protect themselves, they soon got into a fight with Gao Tian.
Gao Xian is a first-class master, ordinary soldiers can easily fight ten, but these people make him fight very hard.
Zhao Huaiyan glanced at Yan Ziang, who looked nervous, indifferently, and said, "Are these people from the government?"
Yan Ziang knew that the fact that he was involved with the killer had been found out, and now he could only refuse to admit it.He said to Zhao Huaiyan with righteous words: "I don't know what the prince means. These people are all drawn from the city guards. Could it be that the prince wants to wrong the subordinate in order to protect General Lin?"
Seeing that he was still stubborn, Zhao Huaiyan was not in a hurry, so he took the people back to make a pair with the list of the city guards.
Yan Ziang knew that the situation was wrong, so he didn't care whether to test it or not, he took the imperial decree and walked aside and said: "No matter what, the subordinate official must fulfill the emperor's order. Since the prince obstructs in every possible way to prevent others from searching this house, then the subordinate official will Just search it yourself!" After speaking, he walked quickly to the door, looked at the closed door, sneered, raised the corners of his mouth, and pushed the door open.
Lin Jinhua's heart was in her throat, if her father wasn't inside, it would really be over this time!
The thatched hut is not big, and you can see it inside and out at a glance. Yan Ziang scanned it carefully, then turned his head and looked at Zhao Huaiyan with a slightly smug smile: "His Royal Highness Ning, now that Lin Luzhi is not there, you But do you have other orders? If not..."
"He's not here, what does that mean?" Zhao Huaiyan asked back.
Lin Jincheng's palms tightened slightly, could it be that Dad really didn't come back in time?
Yan Ziang was not angry when he interrupted him, seeing that he still didn't recognize him, he just stepped forward slowly, and said with a smile: "Didn't General Lin say yesterday that Lin Luzhi was too sad, it's a coincidence that he's not here today. , The news came from the border, saying that Lin Luzhi had already quietly gone back to the border to gather the old troops in an attempt to plot rebellion. In this case, General Lin is not only a criminal who deceived the emperor, but also the children of traitors, the lower officials have the right to take away today." After finishing speaking, he raised his hand The imperial decree in the house shouted: "Arrest Lin Jincheng and his sister!"
After saying that, those who were fighting with Gao Xian also stopped, and went straight to Lin Jinhua who was standing by the road.
Mo Feng hurried forward to protect Lin Jinhua, but he was surprised to see Zhao Huaiyan still calm.
Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard a cough.
Everyone was stunned, and Yan Ziang also hurriedly turned his head to look. Wasn't the man with disheveled hair and slightly pale complexion who came out coughing and walking out just Lin Luzhi?
"You..." He just glanced at the room, but there was no one there.
Lin Luzhi remembered the prince's previous order to come out after Yan Ziang's real purpose was exposed, so when the door was opened just now, he deliberately hid behind the door. Not so.
"Master Yan, what's the matter?" Lin Luzhi coughed twice before asking.
Yan Ziang was dumb, but Zhao Huaiyan said: "The purpose of Mr. Yan's visit today is not to obey the imperial father's imperial edict."
Yan Ziang felt as if a trace of cold was creeping up on his body, which made him shiver involuntarily.
Gao Jin took the opportunity to grab one of them and said: "My lord, this person is going to assassinate my lord just now, let my subordinates take him back for interrogation!"
"En." Zhao Huaiyan responded, and Gao Zhi clapped his hands, and the hidden guards of Prince Ning's Mansion who were hiding around immediately came out and surrounded everyone.
Yan Ziang looked at Zhao Huaiyan, who stood in the middle with a stern face, and gritted his teeth with hatred. Is this his real purpose?When these assassins are taken away, their mouths will definitely be pried open.
Before he could come up with a countermeasure, Lin Jincheng said to Zhao Huaiyan: "Please forgive me, my lord, I want to enter the palace immediately to report this matter to the emperor, so I can't stay here with my lord."
"I will lend you my horse." Zhao Huaiyan said.
Lin Jincheng smiled knowingly, and then glanced at Yan Ziang. He knew it would be difficult to deal with the Yan family's plot against Jinhua from the beginning, but now he must seize Yan Ziang's handle and beat him until he has no power to fight back!
After saluting, he glanced at Lin Jinhua who was standing by the side of the road, smiled at her and got on his horse to leave. After all, the Lin family was blessed by this younger sister, otherwise they would have never known what it would be like to be harmed by these treacherous people.
Seeing this, Yan Ziang also wanted to catch up.Zhao Huaiyan didn't stop it, the Royal Father's decree made the Lin family suspicious, if Yan Zi'ang was not allowed to explain clearly in person, the Royal Father would be even more suspicious of the Lin family's conspiracy.
After Yan Ziang left, the rest of the real city guards hurriedly followed.
After everyone had left, Lin Jinhua looked at his father standing at the door. He seemed to be older, and the wind and frost had sharpened his skin into deep grooves, and his temples were frost-white, making him look haggard.
"Go and sit inside." Zhao Huaiyan said softly when she saw her slightly wet eyes.
Lin Jinhua nodded and stepped inside.
Lin Luzhi arrived this morning. When he heard that his beloved wife's tomb was also destroyed, and his children were being calculated like this, he felt physically and mentally exhausted. Fortunately, the husband chosen by his daughter was not wrong.
On the square table made of green bamboo, Lin Jinhua made green tea.
Behind the small hut is a dense bamboo forest. Open the door on the other side, and the wind passes through the house, blowing away all the heat.
The three sat together, but they couldn't speak. Lin Luzhi's thoughts were all on the grave of his beloved wife, and Lin Jinhua didn't force it, but got up and went into the bamboo forest.
The bamboo forest is full of old bamboo leaves, mixed with new green bamboo leaves, it is refreshing and pleasant.
"What are you worried about?"
She had only taken a few steps when Zhao Huaiyan's voice came from behind.
She turned sideways slightly, and saw him walking towards her slowly under the shattered sunlight in the bamboo forest. The light in the bamboo forest was slightly dim, but falling on him, it seemed to reflect a hazy and dreamy light.
Looking at her, Zhao Huaiyan was stunned again, the corners of his mouth raised unconsciously.She seems to be like this often recently, but when I look at her, my heart throbs.
The breeze blew from behind her, and the light clothes flew up with the wind, and the clear eyes seemed to be filled with endless hope and melancholy.
He didn't like her getting sad.
Taking a step forward, before Lin Jinhua could recover, she felt her red lips being caught, and then he drove straight in.
The breeze blows people's body numb, Lin Jinhua thinks so, it's all because the breeze is so good, it makes her want to be intoxicated like this forever.
Zhao Huaiyan wrapped his arms around her waist, and did not let go of her until he felt her slightly short of breath, looking at her full and moist eyes, his heart moved, and he softly said in a hoarse voice: "Hua'er is so beautiful. "
Lin Jinhua's face turned reddish, but she knew that his words did not mean frivolous.
"Deep in the bamboo forest, there is a stream." Zhao Huaiyan said with a slight smile.
Lin Jinhua's face turned even redder. Now that the two of them are suffering, if they go any further, will they be on fire?
Lin Jinhua put her hand around his neck to prevent him from seeing her blushing face, and said with a soft smile, "Your Majesty, don't you have anything important to do today?"
"There is one thing I really want to do, but I have to wait until after the big wedding." Zhao Huaiyan knew her worry, so he just hugged her in his arms, looked at her shy like a cat, with deep eyes, Let her go in, but before the wedding, he will not touch her, no matter for himself or for her.
A day is like the sand on the fingertips, passing by in a flash.
Today's sunset makes the clouds in the sky extraordinarily red, as if stained with blood.
Outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the emperor rarely stood on the porch looking at the sunset.
Eunuch An carefully waited on the side, and said softly: "Your Majesty, General Lin's injury has been bandaged by the imperial doctors."
"Hmm." The emperor's face was slightly cold when he heard this, and the leisurely elegance just now disappeared: "How is the injury?"
"According to the imperial physicians, the wound is very deep. If it weren't for General Lin's good foundation, he might have lost half of his life." Eunuch An said truthfully.
After hearing this, the emperor let out a deep breath, and said, "Order to have the tomb of Mrs. Lin repaired again, and posthumously named the second-class imperial lady. Yan Ziang dereliction of duty, dismissed his official position, and put him in a prison for retrial."
"Yes." Eunuch An agreed.
But before he went to draw up the imperial decree, he saw another eunuch hurriedly coming from the corridor on the other side.
He went up to meet him and asked in a low voice, "Why is the matter in such a hurry, the emperor is worrying about it."
The old eunuch also had a puzzled look on his face, and only said: "It was Prince Ning's mansion who presented the paper."
"I'll read the excerpt later and it will be..."
"It's about Lord Yan." The old eunuch said again: "The guard Gao of Prince Ning's Mansion specially entrusted the slaves to deal with the affairs of Lord Yan and the Lin family today, so don't delay it carelessly."
After hearing this, Eunuch An looked back at the emperor with a gloomy face, gritted his teeth, took the booklet himself with a sigh, and turned around to send it to the emperor.
The emperor was not surprised to see that the handout was from Prince Ning's mansion. Huaiyan cared so much about the lady of the Lin family and would be so supportive and helpful. He had expected it a long time ago.
After he took over, he thought that he was just participating in Yan Ziang's law enforcement, but he never thought that Yan Ziang had secretly brought a killer to mix with the guards.
"You bastard!" The emperor said angrily after reading it.
Eunuch An hurriedly knelt down and said, "The emperor calm down."
The emperor read the scriptures again, his face livid with anger: "What a Yan Ziang, you dare to take advantage of my loopholes, and even dare to ask someone to kill Lin Jincheng, if Lin Jincheng dies, outsiders will insist on scolding me for being incompetent and incompetent! "
When Eunuch An heard this, he also knew that the situation was serious, so he knelt on the ground and dared not make a sound.
The emperor thought for a while, and said in a deep voice: "Go ahead, the Ning Palace has solid evidence, Yan Ziang dared to use my name to murder a loyal minister, he will be executed immediately!"
Eunuch An trembled in fright. The emperor had not betrayed him for many years and immediately executed him. It seems that Yan Ziang is really doomed this time.
He didn't dare to delay, and immediately got up to draft the imperial edict, and then went to pass the imperial edict himself.
Yan Ziang had gone home to wait for the news, but when such an imperial decree came, his complexion turned pale immediately.
Mrs. Yan had only this son-in-law under her knees, and when she heard this, she collapsed on the ground as soon as her legs softened, and she tugged at Eunuch An's clothes and asked in a trembling voice: "Is this really what the emperor ordered?"
"I don't dare to spread the imperial decree indiscriminately. Madam Yan, I'm sorry." After finishing speaking, he glanced at the guards on one side, and the guards quickly stepped forward and took off Yan Ziang's official uniform, escorted him away, and started all over again. In the end, he didn't have a chance to justify himself.
Mrs. Yan was crying so hard that her heart was broken, but Mr. Yan was calmer, but she was almost fainted.
"Master, hurry up and save Ang'er, he is your only legitimate son..."
Mrs. Yan was crying sadly, but Master Yan could only point at her angrily: "This is all a good thing you did! You have nothing to do and why do you have to participate in these things!"
"Master, I am also thinking of you..."
"Stupid!" After Master Yan finished cursing, he lost his mind.But at the corner, a carriage stopped suddenly, and the servants beside the carriage came over, looked at Madam Yan and said, "Madam Yan, why don't you go and beg the Lin family, as long as they don't pursue it, the emperor might let Young Master Lin go, After all, Lord Yan is someone the emperor values, so he must be reluctant to kill him like this, as long as the Lin family is willing to let go, there must be another chance."
Madam Yan was taken aback after hearing this, yes, as long as the Lin family doesn't pursue...
When she was about to ask who this person was, he had already turned his head and left.
She didn't care much, got up from the ground with limp legs, and immediately called a carriage to the Lin residence.
After watching her set off, the person in the carriage took off the ghost mask lightly.
"Your Highness."
"You don't need to spend any more energy on the Lin family." The Lin family is protected by Zhao Huaiyan, so if they touch this place, it's better to start from other places.
"Yes."
He glanced lightly at the gradually darkening sky, then put on the mask again, and closed his eyes deeply.Some things, if he wants to get it, he will get it, and no one can stop him.
When it was getting late, Zhao Huaiyan came back with Lin Jinhua in his arms again. In Lin Luzhi's absence, Gao Tian also drove the carriage.
Mo Feng looked at the young lady who buried her head in the prince's chest, blinked, thinking about it, but Lin Jinhua didn't dare to explain now, even though Zhao Huaiyan didn't really cook rice with her, but he had too many tricks After a while, she even wondered whether Zhao Huaiyan had any other women in his past and present lives.
Zhao Huaiyan carried her into the carriage, waited for Fang to close the curtain, then gently bit her earlobe, and said in a low voice, "Wait for me at night."
"No." Both of them felt uncomfortable, wouldn't it be even more unbearable to meet again?
"Do nothing." Seeing her shyly closing her eyes and not even daring to look at herself, Zhao Huaiyan just raised her hand and gently walked around her waist, seeing that she was breathing heavily, and then stopped: "Royal Father This time the Yan family must have been annoyed, and you should be more careful with the Yan family in the future."
"Yeah." Lin Jinhua nodded, but she didn't dare to open her eyes to look at him, she was too ashamed.
Seeing this, Zhao Huaiyan's phoenix eyes were stained with a smile, and she didn't stay any longer, only kissed her lightly on the forehead before turning around and going down.
Mo Feng personally drove the carriage away, and Gao Tian looked at Zhao Huaiyan and could feel the warm air around him.
"My lord, do you want those people to perform for you tonight?" Gao Ting mentioned this matter in a sneaky way.However, when he thought of the prince's insistence on refusing to ask the house girl to teach in actual combat, instead of observing on the spot, and taking a cold bath after each observation, I couldn't understand what was going on.
He paused for a moment, only to realize that the aura around the prince's body became cold and severe at some point.
He was panicked in his heart, and hurriedly said in a soft voice: "My lord, I think there is still one thing I can't do..."
Zhao Huaiyan glanced at him indifferently, and got on his horse. When he thought of the news that Zhao Qing had returned to Beijing, he only sank his face, tightened the reins, and walked forward quickly.
When Lin Jinhua returned to the Lin Mansion, it was already dark. Today is the fifteenth day, and the moon is as round as a silver plate. Occasionally, floating clouds pass by, making the moonlight not very bright.
The carriage stopped, and before she got out of the carriage, she heard a burst of crying: "Mr. Lin, just treat me like a mother, please, please let my Ang'er go, he really didn't mean to hurt you." Yes, he is being used by others, please save him."
Lin Jinhua lifted the curtain of the car and looked, her brother was standing at the door of the Lin Mansion with a troubled expression on her face, while Mrs. Yan was already kneeling on the ground, her forehead seemed to be scratched.
When Mo Hua saw Lin Jinhua coming back, she quickly stepped forward and told about Yan Ziang's execution.
"Mrs. Yan has already formed a relationship with the Lin family, how could she think of coming to beg brother?" Lin Jinhua was a little puzzled.
Mo Hua also shook her head, glanced in Madam Yan's direction, and said: "My servant also heard that the emperor was furious, mostly because Yan Ziang tried to murder the young master under the guise of the emperor's decree, the point is that he used the emperor, Madam Yan is now It’s just making trouble out of no reason.”
Lin Jinhua heard this, and then helped Mo Feng's men get out of the carriage.
Mrs. Yan also noticed her coming, and turned her head to look at her sadly: "Miss Lin, I know I was wrong before, please..."
"Didn't Mrs. Yan understand the emperor's imperial decree? My brother is only a third-rank general. If he has the ability to change the emperor's mind, he will not allow Mr. Yan to trample on my mother's grave." A person who even the dead are unwilling to let go No matter how she stands on the moral high ground, Lin Jinhua is not afraid.
Mrs. Yan was choked by her words, and it happened that someone from Yan's residence came to pass the news: "Madam, son, he..."
"what happened?"
"He was beheaded." The servant finished speaking with a choked voice. After hearing this, Mrs. Yan immediately looked at Lin Jinhua's brothers and sisters with a sullen face: "You will die without saving..." Before she finished speaking, she felt angry and rolled her eyes He passed out straight away.
Lin Jinhua glanced at it and knew it, and said: "If you faint because of excessive grief, you should take them home and rest well."
The people in the Yan Mansion lost their backbone, and they didn't dare to make trouble anymore, so they hurriedly took them away.
After everyone had left, Lin Jincheng let out a long sigh of relief, but felt a little helpless: "It seems that the Yan family is completely enmity."
"Even if they don't end this feud, they won't stop. Brother, you don't need to take it to heart. If the prince hadn't made arrangements for it, the entire Lin family would die," Lin Jinhua said softly.
Hearing this, Lin Jincheng was also frightened for a while, sighed deeply, and found that her lips were slightly swollen by the moonlight, and couldn't help but wonder: "Jinhua, what's wrong with your mouth?"
Lin Jinhua quickly blushed to the base of her neck, raised her hand and pretended to cough twice, and said, "I was accidentally bitten by a mosquito. Brother, it's getting late, let's rest earlier." After finishing speaking, he hurried away.
Lin Jincheng didn't quite understand it yet, but Mo Feng understood it all, so he just smiled and said to him: "After the young master marries Miss Wang, he will know what's going on."
Lin Jincheng blinked, but still didn't understand.
Mo Hua watched from the side, but also shook his head, leaving him at the door to think about it, and went back to rest by himself.
But thinking of Ms. Wang... Lin Jincheng's sullenness seemed to dissipate all of a sudden. He hadn't seen her for several days, and he didn't know what was going on with her.
In fact, since the incident of retiring the engagement broke out last time, Wang Ruyan stayed at home to embroider the wedding dress at ease. This time when she married Mrs. Lin, she would definitely embroider the wedding dress herself.
At night, the candle in her room was still burning.
The maid came over and said with a smile: "Miss, it's so late, you should rest first, this servant will help you embroider for a while."
"It doesn't matter, by the way, are all the things I want ready?" She was worried, thinking of the news of Mr. Lin during the day, she had been thinking about tea and food all the time, if it wasn't too late and it was inconvenient for her to go, she would have I went to see him.
The maid nodded upon hearing this, "Don't worry, everything is ready."
"That's good." Wang Ruyan breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the half-embroidered wedding dress in her arms, she was full of joy, but she didn't know that at this moment outside the courtyard, someone was staring at this coldly, with a stooped figure, like a man in the dark night. What a ghost, a little servant girl on patrol came over with a lantern and saw this figure, she screamed in fright, dropped the lantern, turned around and ran away.
The ghost listened to her piercing cry, and the hatred in his eyes deepened. He glanced at the burning lantern that fell on the ground, and there was shadow and his poisoned face in his eyes.
Early the next morning, when Lin Jinhua woke up, it was already bright outside. When Mo Feng came in, she realized that Ru Yan had come with Mrs. Wang, and Lin Jincheng was receiving her in the front hall.
She changed into a light blue and white silk dress, a string of pure white wreaths hung around her waist, and her hair was tied in a cool bun, and then happily went to the front hall.
At that time, Mrs. Wang was talking to Lin Jincheng, while Lin Jincheng and Wang Ruyan sitting below looked at each other from time to time, and when they met, they both blushed.
When Wang Ruyan saw Lin Jinhua approaching, she quickly got up: "Jinhua..."
Lin Jinhua came in and saluted Mrs. Wang before smiling at her, "Long time no see."
When Wang Ruyan heard the words, she felt a burst of emotion in her heart. Looking back on the painful time before, now, it feels like a world away.
She smiled at her, turned around and took a box, and said: "This is the silk handkerchief I embroidered for you, I don't know if you like it or not."
Lin Jinhua opened it and saw that it was a stack of red silk handkerchiefs, embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water, and it was a wedding handkerchief.
"Of course I like it." Lin Jinhua put away the things, then glanced at Lin Jincheng and said, "My brother likes it, how could I not like it?"
After saying that, Lin Jincheng and Wang Ruyan looked at each other, Wang Ruyan was so ashamed that she refused to look up, while Lin Jincheng's eyes were bright and she refused to move her eyes.
Mrs. Wang was also very happy when she saw it, she just smiled at Wang Ruyan and said, "Yan'er, didn't you say that you want to go shopping in person, it happens that Miss Lin is here, you can go together."
Lin Jinhua knew that Mrs. Wang might stay to discuss the details of the wedding with her brother, so she directly ordered Mo Feng, "Go and prepare the carriage."
"Yes."
Mo Feng looked happy and went immediately.
But before they left, Chu Zhaozhao also came to the door. Seeing that the two of them were about to go out, they followed the carriage without saying a word.
In fact, Wang Ruyan didn't mainly want to buy things, but just wanted to go out for a walk. After being bored for a long time, she also knew that she couldn't hide like this all her life, and she always wanted to meet people.
"Let's go to Cuiming Residence. I heard that there are freshly picked lotus seeds. Let's peel them and eat them. We also have iced green plum wine, and order a bowl of shortbread dipped in honey..." Xu Zhaozhao suggested, breaking his fingers.
Seeing that the sun was shining outside, Lin Jinhua looked at Wang Ruyan and saw her nodding, so she went away.
Cuimingju is the favorite of nobles in the capital, and there will always be many guests. When a few people arrive, only the lobby is left. Xu Zhaozhao is thinking about lotus seeds, and Lin Jinhua and Wang Ruyan will sit with her in the lobby.
"Have you heard that there is going to be a war in the southwest." After the lotus seeds came up, Xu Zhaozhao said while passionately peeling a lotus seed and putting it in his mouth.
Lin Jinhua hadn't heard of this: "Will the King of Southwest fight at that time?"
Xu Zhaozhao shook his head: "I don't know, I just heard what my father said. But don't worry, Cousin Cheng just came back from the southwest, so he definitely won't be sent there."
Hearing this, Wang Ruyan was relieved.
Xu Zhaozhao's thinking has always been jumping, and it didn't take long to talk about food. Which restaurant in the capital has delicious noodles, which teahouse has the best tea, all of them are listed one by one. , suddenly saw the person coming from the door, raised his eyebrows, lowered his voice and said: "It's really a narrow road to Yuanjia."
Lin Jinhua turned her head and saw that woman in a long purple dress with beige sleeves, who wasn't Sun Wanwan?
Sun Wanwan also caught a glimpse of them, but she just grabbed the things in her hands nervously, hurriedly whispered something to the person who came down from the second floor, and then hurried away, her steps seemed to be a little flustered.
"Mo Feng." Lin Jinhua said.
Mo Feng nodded, and immediately followed quietly.
Sun Wanwan always came to make trouble when she saw her, but she left in a panic today, which shows that there is something wrong with her.
Several people had eaten, but Mo Feng hadn't come back yet. After hearing Xu Zhaozhao's words, several people went out. Just as they stepped out of the door of Cuiming Residence, someone poured a basin of water straight on. The girl who wanted to stop her couldn't stop her.
Lin Jinhua looked at the wet clothes before she went to see who it was, when she heard a sharp curse: "Things that don't obey women's morals, their reputation is ruined, and they dare to seduce men everywhere without thinking of committing suicide and apologizing. Rotten stuff!"
Everyone knows who these words are directed at.
Lin Jinhua looked at the aggressive woman in front of her. The hand holding the wooden basin was broad and rough, and her skin was dry. It could be seen that she was just an ordinary person. Why did she hate Ru Yan so much?
"Damn woman, don't get out of the capital, no, it's better to get out of Jinchao, so that people don't think that we Jinchao women are as shameless and shameless as you..."
The woman was still chattering and cursing, and the bolder people around her also started cursing in a low voice.
Wang Ruyan stood where she was, her whole body seemed to be covered in ice.
Xu Zhaozhao couldn't see it, and gritted his teeth: "Ignorant woman! Miss Wang is a beautiful woman bestowed by the Empress Dowager. If you dare to insult her here, you are disrespecting the Empress Dowager. Come on, stop her mouth!"
I thought that she would stop pestering me with such a threat, but she became even more rampant: "I have been a widow for 20 years, and I also set up a chastity archway. If the Queen Mother kills me for a dirty woman who doesn't care for herself, I'll kill you." Nothing to say!"
"You—!" Xu Zhaozhao's sharp mouth choked.
Lin Jinhua scanned the crowd, and finally saw the face hiding in the dark, and that face also saw herself, and smiled provocatively.
Seeing this, Lin Jinhua ordered Ah Bao who was beside her: "Speaking out evil words is a violation of the seven rules, and it is aimed at my future young lady of the Lin family, slap your mouth!"
Ah Bao was also angry when he heard the words, he pursed his lips and nodded, stepped forward to slap the woman twice.
The woman was blindfolded and stared at Lin Jinhua: "Miss Lin also wants to protect such a woman who doesn't love herself? Could it be that you and her are..."
"The words are disrespectful, and then slap your mouth." Lin Jinhua ignored the woman and just stared at the women in the crowd. She had met once before. When she was sick in bed, she and Ru Yan came to see her. She remembered Ru Yan At that time, she was introduced as the first daughter of the Tao family, Tao Xin.
Ah Bao slapped him twice again as he said.
Seeing this, the woman simply knelt on the ground: "The grassroots have no power or power, and dare not fight Miss Lin..."
"Why don't you dare? Miss Wang is a person bestowed by the Empress Dowager, and you dare to insult her in the street. I'm just a commoner. If you say you don't dare now, are you lying? Since you have obtained the chastity archway, you should be even more cautious in your words and deeds." That's right, now you're not only showing your face, but also committing a crime of misconduct, I will personally request to revoke your chastity archway." Tao Xin wanted to do these small tricks secretly, so she called her back a hundred times, so that people around could also see, Wang Ruyan is The Lin family is protecting her, whoever dares to bully her is against the Lin family!
Xu Zhaozhao was filled with righteous indignation when he heard it, and took a step forward: "Pass on the order of the princess, whoever insulted Miss Wang just now, each person will slap twenty!"
After she finished speaking, the women who gathered around looked at each other, and hurriedly knelt down on the ground.
Seeing the situation like this, Tao Xin walked out, and said disdainfully, "Miss Lin and Princess Yongle are honorable anyway, so it's too mean to be angry with an ignorant country woman?"
"Miss Tao thinks I'm angry?" Lin Jinyu glanced at Wang Ruyan, who had hollow eyes and painful face, from the corner of her eyes, and her heart grew colder.
"Isn't it?" Tao Xin didn't like Lin Jinyu's face when she saw her. She was said to be good-looking. No matter how good-looking a woman is, her face is easy to age. When her little face has wrinkles, she doesn't believe that King Ning can still treat her Like jewels like jewels.
Lin Jinhua walked a few steps forward in person, reached the woman, raised her hand to pinch her chin, and smiled slightly: "Of course not." After saying that, she raised her hand and hit her hard.
The loud applause made everyone tremble, even Tao Xin was frightened. Who would have thought that Lin Jinhua, who looked gentle, would do it himself.
After the beating, Lin Jinhua tightened her numb palm, looked at Tao Xin indifferently, looked directly into her eyes, and said softly: "Someone wants to force Ru Yan to death, I'm not angry now, but waiting When the executioner put the knife on Ru Yan's head, I also beheaded her."
Looking at her murderous eyes, Tao Xin was horrified, she had never seen such eyes, as if she came from hell.
Seeing that she was frightened, Lin Jinhua slightly raised the corners of her lips: "Miss Tao was frightened?"
"you……"
"how do I?"
Tao Xin gritted his teeth.
Lin Jinhua just turned around indifferently, looked at Wang Ruyan and herself with tears streaming down her face, and felt relieved.As long as she can cry, she will have to face this test sooner or later. Although Tao Xin made this matter a little cruel, it is still a good way for her to face it sooner.
Just as she was thinking, there was a rush of horseshoes, and then it almost stopped in front of Tao Xin, and the raised horseshoe was raised in front of Tao Xin's face. She was so scared that she took three steps back before she could see who was coming.
Wang Ruyan turned her head to look, and the young master in green clothes who came straddling the horse was looking at her with tenderness and concern, which made her feel that all this was not so sad.
"Young Master Lin..."
"When you left, you forgot to take the things I wanted to give you." Lin Jincheng said with a smile, turned over gracefully, took out the warm jade hairpin in his palm, put it on carefully for her, and then smiled softly : "I told Mrs. Wang, I'm going to visit Mr. Wang at night, you play first, and I'll pick you up later."
He didn't mention anything here, he knew it was her pain, so he didn't touch her, just watched her get better slowly.
Wang Ruyan's heart suddenly warmed up, she wiped away her tears with a handkerchief and nodded.
Tao Xin was a little reconciled, gritted her teeth and wanted to move forward, but suddenly found Lin Jinzheng staring at her coldly. Her murderous look scared her back even as she stepped forward.
Unwillingly, she glanced at the happy Wang Ruyan, turned her head away with a soft snort.
In the afternoon, because of Xu Zhaozhao's heartlessness, the dignified atmosphere quickly became active, but Lin Jinhua's reputation as a villain seemed to spread farther. Fortunately, she didn't care at all, and Zhao Huaiyan didn't care either.
At sunset, Lin Jincheng really came to pick up people as promised, and Lin Jinhua and Xu Zhaozhao were lucky enough to have a meal together, so the day was over.
When we returned to Lin's Mansion, it was Haishi, and the two red lanterns at the gate of Lin's Mansion were swaying, which made the whole Lin family feel gentle, but Lin Jinyu still remembered the Southwest War in his heart, and his heart was always not at peace.
Mo Feng came back in the middle of the night and was injured.
When Lin Jinhua smelled the strong smell of blood on her body, she knew she must be in an ambush. She went to get the hemostatic ointment she made and applied it on her, before asking, "But what did you find?"
"Well, fortunately, Mo Yue has been watching outside, otherwise I'm afraid I won't be able to come back." Mo Feng still has lingering fears when he recalled the scene at that time.
"what happened?"
"It's King Jing." Mo Feng gritted his teeth and said, "The servant girl followed Sun Wanwan all the way into King Jing's private house, and then heard her whispering to the people in the room that she was planning to rob the young lady. I listened closer, but I was discovered by someone, and I almost escaped."
After Mo Feng finished speaking, he looked at her nervously: "Miss, King Jing has been plotting against you all the time, and that's why he was somewhat affected by the matter of Jia Cairen. Will he want to kidnap Miss to threaten the prince because of this?"
"What you said is not unreasonable, but I always feel that something is wrong." Lin Jinhua intuitively felt that it was not that simple. It seemed that Sun Wanwan appeared in Cuimingju by chance, and it seemed too coincidental that Mo Feng just heard that passage in the past. And she said Zhao Kan's private house... This narcissistic and arrogant person used to only like to do everything in his luxurious Jingwang Mansion, and would not go to any private house...
Lin Jinhua thought for a while, and then said, "You said Mo Yue was there at that time?"
"Yes, she seems to have noticed something."
"You can ask tomorrow to see what she finds out. As for Prince Jing's Mansion, be on guard first..." Lin Jinhua said.
Mo Feng knew that her intuition had always been keen, so he didn't ask any more questions, and just lowered his eyes to answer.
In the middle of the night, it began to rain heavily outside. The rain in summer is always torrential, and it also crackled when it fell on the windows.
Sitting in the study, Zhao Kan looked at the pictures of beauties he had drawn and listened to the sound of the rain outside. He couldn't fall asleep at all, and finally got up until dawn.
The waiter outside came in, saw that he was about to go out, and asked anxiously, "My lord, where are you going?"
"Go to the Lin Mansion." He closed his eyes these days and it was Lin Jinhua. He hadn't seen her for a while, but he missed her more and more. He wanted to ask her if she had played a trick on him.
The little servant was in a hurry, and quickly followed up with an umbrella, saying: "My lord, you can't go, the empress ordered. And today you are going to enter the palace to accompany the queen mother, this is the empress' order..."
"Enough, everything is ordered by the empress, can't this king have his own ideas?" Zhao Kan suddenly annoyed, since he was a child, he has always listened to his mother and concubine, and now he is really annoyed.
The boy smashed his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.
Zhao Kan snorted softly, and walked a few steps forward, only to see someone approaching at the gate of the mansion, wearing an ugly ghost mask.
Zhao Kan thought of his silver mask, disliked him for a while, and then said coldly, "Who dares to break in without passing a pass?"
The man bowed his hands politely, then raised his head and said, "Brother Sanhuang, long time no see."
Zhao Kan paused for a moment, surprised at first, and then looked at him evilly: "I didn't expect you to come back, did you come to avenge your mother and concubine?"
"This is just one of them. Second, I know that Brother Sanhuang cares about the person but I have no way to get close. I have a way to relieve Brother Sanhuang's lovesickness."
Hearing this, Zhao Kan just took it as a joke, and looked at him with a sneer: "Zhao Qing, you are still planning to let this king compete with Zhao Huaiyan, you good fisherman, how can someone as smart as Jiacai do it?" gave birth to your stupid son?"
Zhao Qing raised his head and smiled slightly: "Brother Sanhuang misunderstood my younger brother, and my younger brother only wants to avenge his mother, so how can he have the right to argue with Brother Sanhuang?"
"It's good that you know you're not qualified." After Zhao Kan finished speaking, he left immediately.
Zhao Qing was not in a hurry, just looked at his back and said with a smile: "My brother is waiting for Brother Sanhuang at any time."
Zhao Kan squinted at him, and left without stopping.
After Lin Jinhua had breakfast, Mo Yue also arrived.
She looked at Lin Jinhua who was walking around in the corridor to digest her food, and told what happened yesterday: "The maidservant wasn't there at first, but she suddenly saw Qiu, the grandson's grandson, talking mysteriously with someone in a low voice, so she followed her. "
Lin Jinhua glanced at Mo Feng who was on the side, Mo Feng nodded slightly, and asked her: "Then you heard, but who wants to kidnap Miss?"
"Yes, it's exactly this part."
"But you and I went at different times, and all I heard was this passage." After Mo Feng said meaningfully, he looked at Lin Jinhua: "This is really strange."
"Someone did this on purpose, and I'm worried that this person is Zhao Qing." Zhao Qing's scheming is not superficial like other people's, his scheming is very, very deep, and even the talented people may not be as good as him.
After a few people finished speaking, they saw Ah Bao rushing in from the outside, and only when they got close did she hear her hurriedly say: "Miss, His Royal Highness King Jing is here."
"What is he here for?" Lin Jinhua remembered that her elder brother had already gone on duty early in the morning, and there were no male elders in the mansion at all.
"I just said I want to see Miss." Ah Bao said.
Mo Feng glanced at him and said, "Why don't you go and stop him?"
"Yeah." Lin Jinhua nodded. She didn't want to see Zhao Kan alone. This person is in a state of mind now. In his previous life, he treated him well and he abandoned him like a shoe. Now that he doesn't like him anymore, he seems to have changed his temper. Retribution?
Lin Jinhua felt cold.
When Mo Feng went out, he was still thinking about how to send Zhao Kan away, but he saw that he was already sitting leisurely in the flower hall drinking tea, and only went up to greet him, and said, "My lord, Miss..."
"Can't you come over?" Zhao Kan knew that Lin Jinhua would not come to see her, so he just smiled and said, "It will be the Empress Dowager's birthday in a few days. This is an invitation for Miss Lin."
Mo Feng looked at the post and was dumbfounded. The Queen Mother's birthday banquet is attended by relatives and relatives, when will they be allowed to go.
"His Royal Highness King Jing, this seems to be out of courtesy."
"Etiquette?" The corners of Zhao Kan's mouth curled up, "I let her go if I say so, so what else..."
"Third Emperor Brother seems to think too much?"
Before Zhao Kan finished his domineering words, he was interrupted by a cool voice.
Zhao Kan looked at the person coming, didn't it be rumored that he left the capital, why did he suddenly appear here?
"Brother Da Huang came at a lucky time."
"The third brother also came very early." Zhao Huaiyan came from the heavy rain, but his body was not wet by the rain, only a little bit colder.He just stepped in, and the maid on the side had already warmly prepared tea and led him to the first seat, as if he was already a family.
An unknown fire rose in Zhao Kan's heart, which made him feel uncomfortable.
Just as she was thinking, Lin Jinyu, who thought she would never show up, actually arrived at the door. She was wearing a long plain dress. Because of the sweltering heat, there was a slight sweat on her forehead and neck, and it seemed that even the front of her chest was a little wet. ...
Seeing his gaze, Zhao Huaiyan frowned, stood up and stood in front of Lin Jinhua, and said to Zhao Kan, "What else is the third brother?"
"Isn't it okay for my brother to send invitations to Ms. Lin?" Zhao Kan became more and more annoyed. For some reason, when he saw Lin Jinhua and Zhao Huaiyan seeming to be very intimate in secret, he felt like he was being cuckolded, which made him furious. .
Upon hearing this, Lin Jinhua saluted shallowly, and then said, "I dare not accept the invitation of His Royal Highness King Jing."
"You—!" Zhao Kan was at a loss for words, and Zhao Huaiyan glanced at Mo Feng: "His Royal Highness King Jing still has official duties, so he will be here soon."
Mo Feng responded and hurriedly stepped forward: "Please, Your Highness."
Seeing that Lin Jinhua was hiding behind Zhao Huaiyan without even looking at him, Zhao Kan was so angry that his face turned blue, and he said in a low voice, "Miss Lin, you want to drive me away too? Could it be that you want to stay with Prince Ning alone? Lin Mansion..."
"What is your Highness talking about!" Lin Jinhua was also annoyed, who is he, why should he say these things without thinking.Even if it is, what does it have to do with him!
Seeing Lin Jinhua walk out, Zhao Kan's eyes were full of anger, and he couldn't help but startled, an indescribable uneasiness surged up, as if he had been betrayed.
His heart was so sore, he simply pursed his lips, glanced at Zhao Huaiyan who seemed to be protecting her, turned his head and left in a fit of anger.
When Zhao Huaiyan saw him leave angrily, he didn't know that he had already fallen in love with Hua'er.But I'm sorry, you didn't cherish it in your last life, no matter what happens in this life, I can't give up Hua'er to you again.
"The chest is wet." Zhao Huaiyan stared in front of her from the corner of her eyes, the bulging part seemed to be bigger, maybe it was because she ran very fast just now, and her clothes are thin in summer, she probably sweats a lot The pieces are all wet, so it's no wonder that Zhao Kan just kept his eyes on him, and he really paid attention.
After saying that, Lin Jinhua's face flushed red, she covered her body and glared at him, then turned her head and ran back.
Zhao Huaiyan watched her trot away, her thin lips curled up slightly.
After Lin Jinhua finished changing her clothes and drank a cup of herbal tea, she suppressed her shame and anger just now. Knowing that Zhao Huaiyan was waiting in the front hall, she didn't bother to see her. He just laughed at herself. Could it be that she didn't like it?
Lin Jinzheng was so empty in her heart that she looked down at her growing body and became distressed. What if he doesn't like it in the future?Will you go to steal?Although she knew that his cold temper was unlikely, she couldn't stop worrying...
Just as he was thinking, he saw a stream of servants rushing in, each holding a box in their hands.
"What is this?" Ah Bao knew that the lady was distressed, and asked for her.
The leading maid smiled and said, "My lord bought them along the way. There are silk cloth, gold and silver jewellery, jewels and jade, and all kinds of elixir. There is also a box of elixir that is said to be domestically produced in Xixia."
"Elixir?" Lin Jinhua got a little interested, and asked someone to bring it, opened it, and found this broken ancient book inside.
Seeing this, Ah Bao hesitated: "Should I take this book to be revised?"
"No, such ancient books are the most precious. After revision, there will inevitably be missing pages and words. I'm afraid that if one word is wrong, the antidote will become poison." Lin Jinhua said casually, carefully put the ancient books away, and looked at the eye box again. Although the medicines in the pot are ordinary in appearance, they are all new to Jin Dynasty, and they have magical effects presumably.
After finishing the medicinal materials, she paused and looked at the person holding the medicine box. It didn't look like the young girl in front of her, but a neat woman about forty years old. She said it was a woman because she didn't pack it up. The woman in a bun, presumably has never been married.
"You are..." Lin Jinhua looked at her hesitantly, and when she saw Lin Jinhua, she also smiled slightly: "The servant girl is in a quilt. She used to be a medical girl who served in the Xixia Palace. This time, she has been favored by the prince and is here to serve the lady. Listen to what the lady said just now. The slaves also know a thing or two about ancient books, so they may be able to clear up the young lady's confusion."
Lin Jinhua was overjoyed. She had heard Huaiyan mention that Xixia was a country of medicine, and her medical skills were superb. She thought she could spy on him, but he actually found such a person.
Just as he was talking, Mo Feng came quickly from outside, glanced at Lin Jinhua, and said worriedly: "Miss, something happened to Master Xu."
"Which Master Xu?"
"Master Xu Chengqing." Mo Feng said.
It was only then that Lin Jinhua remembered that her cousin should be investigating Zheng Lai's death in the past few days. At the beginning, Zheng Lai was inexplicably poisoned, and she felt strange. Could it be that her cousin was also poisoned?
Before she could ask, Mo Feng had already said: "When my lord went to Zheng Lai's cell for inspection, he was also suddenly poisoned. Doctor Lu accompanied him, but said that there was no cure."
Lin Jinhua's heart tightened slightly, she looked at her quilt, and said softly, "I wonder if aunt can come with me?"
Quil Xi is not optimistic about the lady in the boudoir that the prince has in mind, but she has the prudence and benevolence of a doctor, and she is also calm and calm. I just wait to see if she has the talent to inherit her unique medical skills. .
"Miss, please." She accepted Lin Jinhua's 'aunt' with humility.
Seeing this, Lin Jinhua knew that she must not be something in the pool, and felt a little more at ease, so she asked someone to carry the medicine box, and hurried out of the mansion, hoping that this time she could save other people's medical skills repeatedly, and also be able to do so. Save my cousin!
(End of this chapter)
With Yan Ziang's order, all the officers and soldiers raised their knives and killed them.
Seeing this, Lin Jinhua hurriedly turned her head to look at Zhao Huaiyan.She can still think of other things, but there are so many killers here, she can't do anything at all.
Zhao Huaiyan saw her look, then looked at Lin Jincheng, jumped off the horse, and quickly rushed to Lin Jincheng, everyone's swords stopped suddenly.
Panting slightly, Lin Jincheng asked Zhao Huaiyan in a low voice: "My lord, don't worry about me."
"It's okay." It's just delaying time, and Uncle Lin should be here soon.
Yan Ziang's expression turned cold, and he smiled at Zhao Huaiyan, "Your Highness is going to disobey the Emperor's order?"
"Father asked you to trample on Mrs. Lin's tomb and kill General Lin? Why does this king think that Mr. Yan seems to be using the imperial decree to kill people and silence him?" Zhao Huaiyan looked at him coldly, his expression indifferent.
Yan Ziang hurriedly cupped his hands: "I don't mean to be an official, but it is a fact that General Lin stopped me from entering the house to search..."
"What fact? I'm just preventing you from trampling on my mother's grave. Lord Yan, if you want to search, you can do it as you go, but you insist on stepping on the grave to insult the undead, and even use the emperor's order to kill me. I must report the truth to the emperor!" Lin Jincheng saw Zhao Huaiyan say this, and understood what he meant, so he just stepped out and said coldly.
Yan Ziang's face turned slightly blue, he only glanced at the people around him, and ordered in a low voice: "Take someone to search."
"Yes." The man was about to go immediately, but before he took two steps, the sword in Zhao Huaiyan's hand was already on his neck, preventing him from going any further.
"My lord, what do you mean by this?" Yan Ziang felt more and more that something was wrong. The room must be empty, otherwise, why would they obstruct him again and again, and His Royal Highness Yu Wang said that Lin Luzhi never returned to Beijing, even if they delayed it, it would be futile .
Zhao Huaiyan didn't even look at him, just turned the sword slightly in his hand, and stabbed directly at the man's shoulder, the man subconsciously flicked Zhao Huaiyan's sword away with his backhand and took three steps back, his movements were very neat.
Lin Jinhua watched from afar, her brows raised slightly. An ordinary soldier wouldn't have such a quick reaction.
"Which battalion do you belong to?" Zhao Huaiyan put away the sword in his hand and asked calmly.
The man's expression tightened, and he hurriedly looked at Yan Ziang, Yan Ziang frowned, cupped his hands and said: "This time all the soldiers were drawn from the city gate guard army by the order of the emperor..."
"I'm the third-rank general of the guard army. Why didn't I know that there are such powerful people under my command? Could it be that I have buried talents?" Lin Jincheng directly exposed it.
When Yan Ziang heard the words, he suddenly realized that they were testing him.
He hurriedly said, "My lord, this is..."
"All guards obey orders." Zhao Huaiyan ignored his voice and spoke directly.
Hearing this, half of the guards looked at each other hesitantly, while the rest looked at Yan Ziang in unison.
Zhao Huaiyan had already identified which people were impostors, and looked behind the crowd lightly. Gao Zhi had already made preparations and rushed over with his sword in hand.Those people didn't get Yan Ziang's order, and in order to protect themselves, they soon got into a fight with Gao Tian.
Gao Xian is a first-class master, ordinary soldiers can easily fight ten, but these people make him fight very hard.
Zhao Huaiyan glanced at Yan Ziang, who looked nervous, indifferently, and said, "Are these people from the government?"
Yan Ziang knew that the fact that he was involved with the killer had been found out, and now he could only refuse to admit it.He said to Zhao Huaiyan with righteous words: "I don't know what the prince means. These people are all drawn from the city guards. Could it be that the prince wants to wrong the subordinate in order to protect General Lin?"
Seeing that he was still stubborn, Zhao Huaiyan was not in a hurry, so he took the people back to make a pair with the list of the city guards.
Yan Ziang knew that the situation was wrong, so he didn't care whether to test it or not, he took the imperial decree and walked aside and said: "No matter what, the subordinate official must fulfill the emperor's order. Since the prince obstructs in every possible way to prevent others from searching this house, then the subordinate official will Just search it yourself!" After speaking, he walked quickly to the door, looked at the closed door, sneered, raised the corners of his mouth, and pushed the door open.
Lin Jinhua's heart was in her throat, if her father wasn't inside, it would really be over this time!
The thatched hut is not big, and you can see it inside and out at a glance. Yan Ziang scanned it carefully, then turned his head and looked at Zhao Huaiyan with a slightly smug smile: "His Royal Highness Ning, now that Lin Luzhi is not there, you But do you have other orders? If not..."
"He's not here, what does that mean?" Zhao Huaiyan asked back.
Lin Jincheng's palms tightened slightly, could it be that Dad really didn't come back in time?
Yan Ziang was not angry when he interrupted him, seeing that he still didn't recognize him, he just stepped forward slowly, and said with a smile: "Didn't General Lin say yesterday that Lin Luzhi was too sad, it's a coincidence that he's not here today. , The news came from the border, saying that Lin Luzhi had already quietly gone back to the border to gather the old troops in an attempt to plot rebellion. In this case, General Lin is not only a criminal who deceived the emperor, but also the children of traitors, the lower officials have the right to take away today." After finishing speaking, he raised his hand The imperial decree in the house shouted: "Arrest Lin Jincheng and his sister!"
After saying that, those who were fighting with Gao Xian also stopped, and went straight to Lin Jinhua who was standing by the road.
Mo Feng hurried forward to protect Lin Jinhua, but he was surprised to see Zhao Huaiyan still calm.
Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard a cough.
Everyone was stunned, and Yan Ziang also hurriedly turned his head to look. Wasn't the man with disheveled hair and slightly pale complexion who came out coughing and walking out just Lin Luzhi?
"You..." He just glanced at the room, but there was no one there.
Lin Luzhi remembered the prince's previous order to come out after Yan Ziang's real purpose was exposed, so when the door was opened just now, he deliberately hid behind the door. Not so.
"Master Yan, what's the matter?" Lin Luzhi coughed twice before asking.
Yan Ziang was dumb, but Zhao Huaiyan said: "The purpose of Mr. Yan's visit today is not to obey the imperial father's imperial edict."
Yan Ziang felt as if a trace of cold was creeping up on his body, which made him shiver involuntarily.
Gao Jin took the opportunity to grab one of them and said: "My lord, this person is going to assassinate my lord just now, let my subordinates take him back for interrogation!"
"En." Zhao Huaiyan responded, and Gao Zhi clapped his hands, and the hidden guards of Prince Ning's Mansion who were hiding around immediately came out and surrounded everyone.
Yan Ziang looked at Zhao Huaiyan, who stood in the middle with a stern face, and gritted his teeth with hatred. Is this his real purpose?When these assassins are taken away, their mouths will definitely be pried open.
Before he could come up with a countermeasure, Lin Jincheng said to Zhao Huaiyan: "Please forgive me, my lord, I want to enter the palace immediately to report this matter to the emperor, so I can't stay here with my lord."
"I will lend you my horse." Zhao Huaiyan said.
Lin Jincheng smiled knowingly, and then glanced at Yan Ziang. He knew it would be difficult to deal with the Yan family's plot against Jinhua from the beginning, but now he must seize Yan Ziang's handle and beat him until he has no power to fight back!
After saluting, he glanced at Lin Jinhua who was standing by the side of the road, smiled at her and got on his horse to leave. After all, the Lin family was blessed by this younger sister, otherwise they would have never known what it would be like to be harmed by these treacherous people.
Seeing this, Yan Ziang also wanted to catch up.Zhao Huaiyan didn't stop it, the Royal Father's decree made the Lin family suspicious, if Yan Zi'ang was not allowed to explain clearly in person, the Royal Father would be even more suspicious of the Lin family's conspiracy.
After Yan Ziang left, the rest of the real city guards hurriedly followed.
After everyone had left, Lin Jinhua looked at his father standing at the door. He seemed to be older, and the wind and frost had sharpened his skin into deep grooves, and his temples were frost-white, making him look haggard.
"Go and sit inside." Zhao Huaiyan said softly when she saw her slightly wet eyes.
Lin Jinhua nodded and stepped inside.
Lin Luzhi arrived this morning. When he heard that his beloved wife's tomb was also destroyed, and his children were being calculated like this, he felt physically and mentally exhausted. Fortunately, the husband chosen by his daughter was not wrong.
On the square table made of green bamboo, Lin Jinhua made green tea.
Behind the small hut is a dense bamboo forest. Open the door on the other side, and the wind passes through the house, blowing away all the heat.
The three sat together, but they couldn't speak. Lin Luzhi's thoughts were all on the grave of his beloved wife, and Lin Jinhua didn't force it, but got up and went into the bamboo forest.
The bamboo forest is full of old bamboo leaves, mixed with new green bamboo leaves, it is refreshing and pleasant.
"What are you worried about?"
She had only taken a few steps when Zhao Huaiyan's voice came from behind.
She turned sideways slightly, and saw him walking towards her slowly under the shattered sunlight in the bamboo forest. The light in the bamboo forest was slightly dim, but falling on him, it seemed to reflect a hazy and dreamy light.
Looking at her, Zhao Huaiyan was stunned again, the corners of his mouth raised unconsciously.She seems to be like this often recently, but when I look at her, my heart throbs.
The breeze blew from behind her, and the light clothes flew up with the wind, and the clear eyes seemed to be filled with endless hope and melancholy.
He didn't like her getting sad.
Taking a step forward, before Lin Jinhua could recover, she felt her red lips being caught, and then he drove straight in.
The breeze blows people's body numb, Lin Jinhua thinks so, it's all because the breeze is so good, it makes her want to be intoxicated like this forever.
Zhao Huaiyan wrapped his arms around her waist, and did not let go of her until he felt her slightly short of breath, looking at her full and moist eyes, his heart moved, and he softly said in a hoarse voice: "Hua'er is so beautiful. "
Lin Jinhua's face turned reddish, but she knew that his words did not mean frivolous.
"Deep in the bamboo forest, there is a stream." Zhao Huaiyan said with a slight smile.
Lin Jinhua's face turned even redder. Now that the two of them are suffering, if they go any further, will they be on fire?
Lin Jinhua put her hand around his neck to prevent him from seeing her blushing face, and said with a soft smile, "Your Majesty, don't you have anything important to do today?"
"There is one thing I really want to do, but I have to wait until after the big wedding." Zhao Huaiyan knew her worry, so he just hugged her in his arms, looked at her shy like a cat, with deep eyes, Let her go in, but before the wedding, he will not touch her, no matter for himself or for her.
A day is like the sand on the fingertips, passing by in a flash.
Today's sunset makes the clouds in the sky extraordinarily red, as if stained with blood.
Outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the emperor rarely stood on the porch looking at the sunset.
Eunuch An carefully waited on the side, and said softly: "Your Majesty, General Lin's injury has been bandaged by the imperial doctors."
"Hmm." The emperor's face was slightly cold when he heard this, and the leisurely elegance just now disappeared: "How is the injury?"
"According to the imperial physicians, the wound is very deep. If it weren't for General Lin's good foundation, he might have lost half of his life." Eunuch An said truthfully.
After hearing this, the emperor let out a deep breath, and said, "Order to have the tomb of Mrs. Lin repaired again, and posthumously named the second-class imperial lady. Yan Ziang dereliction of duty, dismissed his official position, and put him in a prison for retrial."
"Yes." Eunuch An agreed.
But before he went to draw up the imperial decree, he saw another eunuch hurriedly coming from the corridor on the other side.
He went up to meet him and asked in a low voice, "Why is the matter in such a hurry, the emperor is worrying about it."
The old eunuch also had a puzzled look on his face, and only said: "It was Prince Ning's mansion who presented the paper."
"I'll read the excerpt later and it will be..."
"It's about Lord Yan." The old eunuch said again: "The guard Gao of Prince Ning's Mansion specially entrusted the slaves to deal with the affairs of Lord Yan and the Lin family today, so don't delay it carelessly."
After hearing this, Eunuch An looked back at the emperor with a gloomy face, gritted his teeth, took the booklet himself with a sigh, and turned around to send it to the emperor.
The emperor was not surprised to see that the handout was from Prince Ning's mansion. Huaiyan cared so much about the lady of the Lin family and would be so supportive and helpful. He had expected it a long time ago.
After he took over, he thought that he was just participating in Yan Ziang's law enforcement, but he never thought that Yan Ziang had secretly brought a killer to mix with the guards.
"You bastard!" The emperor said angrily after reading it.
Eunuch An hurriedly knelt down and said, "The emperor calm down."
The emperor read the scriptures again, his face livid with anger: "What a Yan Ziang, you dare to take advantage of my loopholes, and even dare to ask someone to kill Lin Jincheng, if Lin Jincheng dies, outsiders will insist on scolding me for being incompetent and incompetent! "
When Eunuch An heard this, he also knew that the situation was serious, so he knelt on the ground and dared not make a sound.
The emperor thought for a while, and said in a deep voice: "Go ahead, the Ning Palace has solid evidence, Yan Ziang dared to use my name to murder a loyal minister, he will be executed immediately!"
Eunuch An trembled in fright. The emperor had not betrayed him for many years and immediately executed him. It seems that Yan Ziang is really doomed this time.
He didn't dare to delay, and immediately got up to draft the imperial edict, and then went to pass the imperial edict himself.
Yan Ziang had gone home to wait for the news, but when such an imperial decree came, his complexion turned pale immediately.
Mrs. Yan had only this son-in-law under her knees, and when she heard this, she collapsed on the ground as soon as her legs softened, and she tugged at Eunuch An's clothes and asked in a trembling voice: "Is this really what the emperor ordered?"
"I don't dare to spread the imperial decree indiscriminately. Madam Yan, I'm sorry." After finishing speaking, he glanced at the guards on one side, and the guards quickly stepped forward and took off Yan Ziang's official uniform, escorted him away, and started all over again. In the end, he didn't have a chance to justify himself.
Mrs. Yan was crying so hard that her heart was broken, but Mr. Yan was calmer, but she was almost fainted.
"Master, hurry up and save Ang'er, he is your only legitimate son..."
Mrs. Yan was crying sadly, but Master Yan could only point at her angrily: "This is all a good thing you did! You have nothing to do and why do you have to participate in these things!"
"Master, I am also thinking of you..."
"Stupid!" After Master Yan finished cursing, he lost his mind.But at the corner, a carriage stopped suddenly, and the servants beside the carriage came over, looked at Madam Yan and said, "Madam Yan, why don't you go and beg the Lin family, as long as they don't pursue it, the emperor might let Young Master Lin go, After all, Lord Yan is someone the emperor values, so he must be reluctant to kill him like this, as long as the Lin family is willing to let go, there must be another chance."
Madam Yan was taken aback after hearing this, yes, as long as the Lin family doesn't pursue...
When she was about to ask who this person was, he had already turned his head and left.
She didn't care much, got up from the ground with limp legs, and immediately called a carriage to the Lin residence.
After watching her set off, the person in the carriage took off the ghost mask lightly.
"Your Highness."
"You don't need to spend any more energy on the Lin family." The Lin family is protected by Zhao Huaiyan, so if they touch this place, it's better to start from other places.
"Yes."
He glanced lightly at the gradually darkening sky, then put on the mask again, and closed his eyes deeply.Some things, if he wants to get it, he will get it, and no one can stop him.
When it was getting late, Zhao Huaiyan came back with Lin Jinhua in his arms again. In Lin Luzhi's absence, Gao Tian also drove the carriage.
Mo Feng looked at the young lady who buried her head in the prince's chest, blinked, thinking about it, but Lin Jinhua didn't dare to explain now, even though Zhao Huaiyan didn't really cook rice with her, but he had too many tricks After a while, she even wondered whether Zhao Huaiyan had any other women in his past and present lives.
Zhao Huaiyan carried her into the carriage, waited for Fang to close the curtain, then gently bit her earlobe, and said in a low voice, "Wait for me at night."
"No." Both of them felt uncomfortable, wouldn't it be even more unbearable to meet again?
"Do nothing." Seeing her shyly closing her eyes and not even daring to look at herself, Zhao Huaiyan just raised her hand and gently walked around her waist, seeing that she was breathing heavily, and then stopped: "Royal Father This time the Yan family must have been annoyed, and you should be more careful with the Yan family in the future."
"Yeah." Lin Jinhua nodded, but she didn't dare to open her eyes to look at him, she was too ashamed.
Seeing this, Zhao Huaiyan's phoenix eyes were stained with a smile, and she didn't stay any longer, only kissed her lightly on the forehead before turning around and going down.
Mo Feng personally drove the carriage away, and Gao Tian looked at Zhao Huaiyan and could feel the warm air around him.
"My lord, do you want those people to perform for you tonight?" Gao Ting mentioned this matter in a sneaky way.However, when he thought of the prince's insistence on refusing to ask the house girl to teach in actual combat, instead of observing on the spot, and taking a cold bath after each observation, I couldn't understand what was going on.
He paused for a moment, only to realize that the aura around the prince's body became cold and severe at some point.
He was panicked in his heart, and hurriedly said in a soft voice: "My lord, I think there is still one thing I can't do..."
Zhao Huaiyan glanced at him indifferently, and got on his horse. When he thought of the news that Zhao Qing had returned to Beijing, he only sank his face, tightened the reins, and walked forward quickly.
When Lin Jinhua returned to the Lin Mansion, it was already dark. Today is the fifteenth day, and the moon is as round as a silver plate. Occasionally, floating clouds pass by, making the moonlight not very bright.
The carriage stopped, and before she got out of the carriage, she heard a burst of crying: "Mr. Lin, just treat me like a mother, please, please let my Ang'er go, he really didn't mean to hurt you." Yes, he is being used by others, please save him."
Lin Jinhua lifted the curtain of the car and looked, her brother was standing at the door of the Lin Mansion with a troubled expression on her face, while Mrs. Yan was already kneeling on the ground, her forehead seemed to be scratched.
When Mo Hua saw Lin Jinhua coming back, she quickly stepped forward and told about Yan Ziang's execution.
"Mrs. Yan has already formed a relationship with the Lin family, how could she think of coming to beg brother?" Lin Jinhua was a little puzzled.
Mo Hua also shook her head, glanced in Madam Yan's direction, and said: "My servant also heard that the emperor was furious, mostly because Yan Ziang tried to murder the young master under the guise of the emperor's decree, the point is that he used the emperor, Madam Yan is now It’s just making trouble out of no reason.”
Lin Jinhua heard this, and then helped Mo Feng's men get out of the carriage.
Mrs. Yan also noticed her coming, and turned her head to look at her sadly: "Miss Lin, I know I was wrong before, please..."
"Didn't Mrs. Yan understand the emperor's imperial decree? My brother is only a third-rank general. If he has the ability to change the emperor's mind, he will not allow Mr. Yan to trample on my mother's grave." A person who even the dead are unwilling to let go No matter how she stands on the moral high ground, Lin Jinhua is not afraid.
Mrs. Yan was choked by her words, and it happened that someone from Yan's residence came to pass the news: "Madam, son, he..."
"what happened?"
"He was beheaded." The servant finished speaking with a choked voice. After hearing this, Mrs. Yan immediately looked at Lin Jinhua's brothers and sisters with a sullen face: "You will die without saving..." Before she finished speaking, she felt angry and rolled her eyes He passed out straight away.
Lin Jinhua glanced at it and knew it, and said: "If you faint because of excessive grief, you should take them home and rest well."
The people in the Yan Mansion lost their backbone, and they didn't dare to make trouble anymore, so they hurriedly took them away.
After everyone had left, Lin Jincheng let out a long sigh of relief, but felt a little helpless: "It seems that the Yan family is completely enmity."
"Even if they don't end this feud, they won't stop. Brother, you don't need to take it to heart. If the prince hadn't made arrangements for it, the entire Lin family would die," Lin Jinhua said softly.
Hearing this, Lin Jincheng was also frightened for a while, sighed deeply, and found that her lips were slightly swollen by the moonlight, and couldn't help but wonder: "Jinhua, what's wrong with your mouth?"
Lin Jinhua quickly blushed to the base of her neck, raised her hand and pretended to cough twice, and said, "I was accidentally bitten by a mosquito. Brother, it's getting late, let's rest earlier." After finishing speaking, he hurried away.
Lin Jincheng didn't quite understand it yet, but Mo Feng understood it all, so he just smiled and said to him: "After the young master marries Miss Wang, he will know what's going on."
Lin Jincheng blinked, but still didn't understand.
Mo Hua watched from the side, but also shook his head, leaving him at the door to think about it, and went back to rest by himself.
But thinking of Ms. Wang... Lin Jincheng's sullenness seemed to dissipate all of a sudden. He hadn't seen her for several days, and he didn't know what was going on with her.
In fact, since the incident of retiring the engagement broke out last time, Wang Ruyan stayed at home to embroider the wedding dress at ease. This time when she married Mrs. Lin, she would definitely embroider the wedding dress herself.
At night, the candle in her room was still burning.
The maid came over and said with a smile: "Miss, it's so late, you should rest first, this servant will help you embroider for a while."
"It doesn't matter, by the way, are all the things I want ready?" She was worried, thinking of the news of Mr. Lin during the day, she had been thinking about tea and food all the time, if it wasn't too late and it was inconvenient for her to go, she would have I went to see him.
The maid nodded upon hearing this, "Don't worry, everything is ready."
"That's good." Wang Ruyan breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the half-embroidered wedding dress in her arms, she was full of joy, but she didn't know that at this moment outside the courtyard, someone was staring at this coldly, with a stooped figure, like a man in the dark night. What a ghost, a little servant girl on patrol came over with a lantern and saw this figure, she screamed in fright, dropped the lantern, turned around and ran away.
The ghost listened to her piercing cry, and the hatred in his eyes deepened. He glanced at the burning lantern that fell on the ground, and there was shadow and his poisoned face in his eyes.
Early the next morning, when Lin Jinhua woke up, it was already bright outside. When Mo Feng came in, she realized that Ru Yan had come with Mrs. Wang, and Lin Jincheng was receiving her in the front hall.
She changed into a light blue and white silk dress, a string of pure white wreaths hung around her waist, and her hair was tied in a cool bun, and then happily went to the front hall.
At that time, Mrs. Wang was talking to Lin Jincheng, while Lin Jincheng and Wang Ruyan sitting below looked at each other from time to time, and when they met, they both blushed.
When Wang Ruyan saw Lin Jinhua approaching, she quickly got up: "Jinhua..."
Lin Jinhua came in and saluted Mrs. Wang before smiling at her, "Long time no see."
When Wang Ruyan heard the words, she felt a burst of emotion in her heart. Looking back on the painful time before, now, it feels like a world away.
She smiled at her, turned around and took a box, and said: "This is the silk handkerchief I embroidered for you, I don't know if you like it or not."
Lin Jinhua opened it and saw that it was a stack of red silk handkerchiefs, embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water, and it was a wedding handkerchief.
"Of course I like it." Lin Jinhua put away the things, then glanced at Lin Jincheng and said, "My brother likes it, how could I not like it?"
After saying that, Lin Jincheng and Wang Ruyan looked at each other, Wang Ruyan was so ashamed that she refused to look up, while Lin Jincheng's eyes were bright and she refused to move her eyes.
Mrs. Wang was also very happy when she saw it, she just smiled at Wang Ruyan and said, "Yan'er, didn't you say that you want to go shopping in person, it happens that Miss Lin is here, you can go together."
Lin Jinhua knew that Mrs. Wang might stay to discuss the details of the wedding with her brother, so she directly ordered Mo Feng, "Go and prepare the carriage."
"Yes."
Mo Feng looked happy and went immediately.
But before they left, Chu Zhaozhao also came to the door. Seeing that the two of them were about to go out, they followed the carriage without saying a word.
In fact, Wang Ruyan didn't mainly want to buy things, but just wanted to go out for a walk. After being bored for a long time, she also knew that she couldn't hide like this all her life, and she always wanted to meet people.
"Let's go to Cuiming Residence. I heard that there are freshly picked lotus seeds. Let's peel them and eat them. We also have iced green plum wine, and order a bowl of shortbread dipped in honey..." Xu Zhaozhao suggested, breaking his fingers.
Seeing that the sun was shining outside, Lin Jinhua looked at Wang Ruyan and saw her nodding, so she went away.
Cuimingju is the favorite of nobles in the capital, and there will always be many guests. When a few people arrive, only the lobby is left. Xu Zhaozhao is thinking about lotus seeds, and Lin Jinhua and Wang Ruyan will sit with her in the lobby.
"Have you heard that there is going to be a war in the southwest." After the lotus seeds came up, Xu Zhaozhao said while passionately peeling a lotus seed and putting it in his mouth.
Lin Jinhua hadn't heard of this: "Will the King of Southwest fight at that time?"
Xu Zhaozhao shook his head: "I don't know, I just heard what my father said. But don't worry, Cousin Cheng just came back from the southwest, so he definitely won't be sent there."
Hearing this, Wang Ruyan was relieved.
Xu Zhaozhao's thinking has always been jumping, and it didn't take long to talk about food. Which restaurant in the capital has delicious noodles, which teahouse has the best tea, all of them are listed one by one. , suddenly saw the person coming from the door, raised his eyebrows, lowered his voice and said: "It's really a narrow road to Yuanjia."
Lin Jinhua turned her head and saw that woman in a long purple dress with beige sleeves, who wasn't Sun Wanwan?
Sun Wanwan also caught a glimpse of them, but she just grabbed the things in her hands nervously, hurriedly whispered something to the person who came down from the second floor, and then hurried away, her steps seemed to be a little flustered.
"Mo Feng." Lin Jinhua said.
Mo Feng nodded, and immediately followed quietly.
Sun Wanwan always came to make trouble when she saw her, but she left in a panic today, which shows that there is something wrong with her.
Several people had eaten, but Mo Feng hadn't come back yet. After hearing Xu Zhaozhao's words, several people went out. Just as they stepped out of the door of Cuiming Residence, someone poured a basin of water straight on. The girl who wanted to stop her couldn't stop her.
Lin Jinhua looked at the wet clothes before she went to see who it was, when she heard a sharp curse: "Things that don't obey women's morals, their reputation is ruined, and they dare to seduce men everywhere without thinking of committing suicide and apologizing. Rotten stuff!"
Everyone knows who these words are directed at.
Lin Jinhua looked at the aggressive woman in front of her. The hand holding the wooden basin was broad and rough, and her skin was dry. It could be seen that she was just an ordinary person. Why did she hate Ru Yan so much?
"Damn woman, don't get out of the capital, no, it's better to get out of Jinchao, so that people don't think that we Jinchao women are as shameless and shameless as you..."
The woman was still chattering and cursing, and the bolder people around her also started cursing in a low voice.
Wang Ruyan stood where she was, her whole body seemed to be covered in ice.
Xu Zhaozhao couldn't see it, and gritted his teeth: "Ignorant woman! Miss Wang is a beautiful woman bestowed by the Empress Dowager. If you dare to insult her here, you are disrespecting the Empress Dowager. Come on, stop her mouth!"
I thought that she would stop pestering me with such a threat, but she became even more rampant: "I have been a widow for 20 years, and I also set up a chastity archway. If the Queen Mother kills me for a dirty woman who doesn't care for herself, I'll kill you." Nothing to say!"
"You—!" Xu Zhaozhao's sharp mouth choked.
Lin Jinhua scanned the crowd, and finally saw the face hiding in the dark, and that face also saw herself, and smiled provocatively.
Seeing this, Lin Jinhua ordered Ah Bao who was beside her: "Speaking out evil words is a violation of the seven rules, and it is aimed at my future young lady of the Lin family, slap your mouth!"
Ah Bao was also angry when he heard the words, he pursed his lips and nodded, stepped forward to slap the woman twice.
The woman was blindfolded and stared at Lin Jinhua: "Miss Lin also wants to protect such a woman who doesn't love herself? Could it be that you and her are..."
"The words are disrespectful, and then slap your mouth." Lin Jinhua ignored the woman and just stared at the women in the crowd. She had met once before. When she was sick in bed, she and Ru Yan came to see her. She remembered Ru Yan At that time, she was introduced as the first daughter of the Tao family, Tao Xin.
Ah Bao slapped him twice again as he said.
Seeing this, the woman simply knelt on the ground: "The grassroots have no power or power, and dare not fight Miss Lin..."
"Why don't you dare? Miss Wang is a person bestowed by the Empress Dowager, and you dare to insult her in the street. I'm just a commoner. If you say you don't dare now, are you lying? Since you have obtained the chastity archway, you should be even more cautious in your words and deeds." That's right, now you're not only showing your face, but also committing a crime of misconduct, I will personally request to revoke your chastity archway." Tao Xin wanted to do these small tricks secretly, so she called her back a hundred times, so that people around could also see, Wang Ruyan is The Lin family is protecting her, whoever dares to bully her is against the Lin family!
Xu Zhaozhao was filled with righteous indignation when he heard it, and took a step forward: "Pass on the order of the princess, whoever insulted Miss Wang just now, each person will slap twenty!"
After she finished speaking, the women who gathered around looked at each other, and hurriedly knelt down on the ground.
Seeing the situation like this, Tao Xin walked out, and said disdainfully, "Miss Lin and Princess Yongle are honorable anyway, so it's too mean to be angry with an ignorant country woman?"
"Miss Tao thinks I'm angry?" Lin Jinyu glanced at Wang Ruyan, who had hollow eyes and painful face, from the corner of her eyes, and her heart grew colder.
"Isn't it?" Tao Xin didn't like Lin Jinyu's face when she saw her. She was said to be good-looking. No matter how good-looking a woman is, her face is easy to age. When her little face has wrinkles, she doesn't believe that King Ning can still treat her Like jewels like jewels.
Lin Jinhua walked a few steps forward in person, reached the woman, raised her hand to pinch her chin, and smiled slightly: "Of course not." After saying that, she raised her hand and hit her hard.
The loud applause made everyone tremble, even Tao Xin was frightened. Who would have thought that Lin Jinhua, who looked gentle, would do it himself.
After the beating, Lin Jinhua tightened her numb palm, looked at Tao Xin indifferently, looked directly into her eyes, and said softly: "Someone wants to force Ru Yan to death, I'm not angry now, but waiting When the executioner put the knife on Ru Yan's head, I also beheaded her."
Looking at her murderous eyes, Tao Xin was horrified, she had never seen such eyes, as if she came from hell.
Seeing that she was frightened, Lin Jinhua slightly raised the corners of her lips: "Miss Tao was frightened?"
"you……"
"how do I?"
Tao Xin gritted his teeth.
Lin Jinhua just turned around indifferently, looked at Wang Ruyan and herself with tears streaming down her face, and felt relieved.As long as she can cry, she will have to face this test sooner or later. Although Tao Xin made this matter a little cruel, it is still a good way for her to face it sooner.
Just as she was thinking, there was a rush of horseshoes, and then it almost stopped in front of Tao Xin, and the raised horseshoe was raised in front of Tao Xin's face. She was so scared that she took three steps back before she could see who was coming.
Wang Ruyan turned her head to look, and the young master in green clothes who came straddling the horse was looking at her with tenderness and concern, which made her feel that all this was not so sad.
"Young Master Lin..."
"When you left, you forgot to take the things I wanted to give you." Lin Jincheng said with a smile, turned over gracefully, took out the warm jade hairpin in his palm, put it on carefully for her, and then smiled softly : "I told Mrs. Wang, I'm going to visit Mr. Wang at night, you play first, and I'll pick you up later."
He didn't mention anything here, he knew it was her pain, so he didn't touch her, just watched her get better slowly.
Wang Ruyan's heart suddenly warmed up, she wiped away her tears with a handkerchief and nodded.
Tao Xin was a little reconciled, gritted her teeth and wanted to move forward, but suddenly found Lin Jinzheng staring at her coldly. Her murderous look scared her back even as she stepped forward.
Unwillingly, she glanced at the happy Wang Ruyan, turned her head away with a soft snort.
In the afternoon, because of Xu Zhaozhao's heartlessness, the dignified atmosphere quickly became active, but Lin Jinhua's reputation as a villain seemed to spread farther. Fortunately, she didn't care at all, and Zhao Huaiyan didn't care either.
At sunset, Lin Jincheng really came to pick up people as promised, and Lin Jinhua and Xu Zhaozhao were lucky enough to have a meal together, so the day was over.
When we returned to Lin's Mansion, it was Haishi, and the two red lanterns at the gate of Lin's Mansion were swaying, which made the whole Lin family feel gentle, but Lin Jinyu still remembered the Southwest War in his heart, and his heart was always not at peace.
Mo Feng came back in the middle of the night and was injured.
When Lin Jinhua smelled the strong smell of blood on her body, she knew she must be in an ambush. She went to get the hemostatic ointment she made and applied it on her, before asking, "But what did you find?"
"Well, fortunately, Mo Yue has been watching outside, otherwise I'm afraid I won't be able to come back." Mo Feng still has lingering fears when he recalled the scene at that time.
"what happened?"
"It's King Jing." Mo Feng gritted his teeth and said, "The servant girl followed Sun Wanwan all the way into King Jing's private house, and then heard her whispering to the people in the room that she was planning to rob the young lady. I listened closer, but I was discovered by someone, and I almost escaped."
After Mo Feng finished speaking, he looked at her nervously: "Miss, King Jing has been plotting against you all the time, and that's why he was somewhat affected by the matter of Jia Cairen. Will he want to kidnap Miss to threaten the prince because of this?"
"What you said is not unreasonable, but I always feel that something is wrong." Lin Jinhua intuitively felt that it was not that simple. It seemed that Sun Wanwan appeared in Cuimingju by chance, and it seemed too coincidental that Mo Feng just heard that passage in the past. And she said Zhao Kan's private house... This narcissistic and arrogant person used to only like to do everything in his luxurious Jingwang Mansion, and would not go to any private house...
Lin Jinhua thought for a while, and then said, "You said Mo Yue was there at that time?"
"Yes, she seems to have noticed something."
"You can ask tomorrow to see what she finds out. As for Prince Jing's Mansion, be on guard first..." Lin Jinhua said.
Mo Feng knew that her intuition had always been keen, so he didn't ask any more questions, and just lowered his eyes to answer.
In the middle of the night, it began to rain heavily outside. The rain in summer is always torrential, and it also crackled when it fell on the windows.
Sitting in the study, Zhao Kan looked at the pictures of beauties he had drawn and listened to the sound of the rain outside. He couldn't fall asleep at all, and finally got up until dawn.
The waiter outside came in, saw that he was about to go out, and asked anxiously, "My lord, where are you going?"
"Go to the Lin Mansion." He closed his eyes these days and it was Lin Jinhua. He hadn't seen her for a while, but he missed her more and more. He wanted to ask her if she had played a trick on him.
The little servant was in a hurry, and quickly followed up with an umbrella, saying: "My lord, you can't go, the empress ordered. And today you are going to enter the palace to accompany the queen mother, this is the empress' order..."
"Enough, everything is ordered by the empress, can't this king have his own ideas?" Zhao Kan suddenly annoyed, since he was a child, he has always listened to his mother and concubine, and now he is really annoyed.
The boy smashed his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.
Zhao Kan snorted softly, and walked a few steps forward, only to see someone approaching at the gate of the mansion, wearing an ugly ghost mask.
Zhao Kan thought of his silver mask, disliked him for a while, and then said coldly, "Who dares to break in without passing a pass?"
The man bowed his hands politely, then raised his head and said, "Brother Sanhuang, long time no see."
Zhao Kan paused for a moment, surprised at first, and then looked at him evilly: "I didn't expect you to come back, did you come to avenge your mother and concubine?"
"This is just one of them. Second, I know that Brother Sanhuang cares about the person but I have no way to get close. I have a way to relieve Brother Sanhuang's lovesickness."
Hearing this, Zhao Kan just took it as a joke, and looked at him with a sneer: "Zhao Qing, you are still planning to let this king compete with Zhao Huaiyan, you good fisherman, how can someone as smart as Jiacai do it?" gave birth to your stupid son?"
Zhao Qing raised his head and smiled slightly: "Brother Sanhuang misunderstood my younger brother, and my younger brother only wants to avenge his mother, so how can he have the right to argue with Brother Sanhuang?"
"It's good that you know you're not qualified." After Zhao Kan finished speaking, he left immediately.
Zhao Qing was not in a hurry, just looked at his back and said with a smile: "My brother is waiting for Brother Sanhuang at any time."
Zhao Kan squinted at him, and left without stopping.
After Lin Jinhua had breakfast, Mo Yue also arrived.
She looked at Lin Jinhua who was walking around in the corridor to digest her food, and told what happened yesterday: "The maidservant wasn't there at first, but she suddenly saw Qiu, the grandson's grandson, talking mysteriously with someone in a low voice, so she followed her. "
Lin Jinhua glanced at Mo Feng who was on the side, Mo Feng nodded slightly, and asked her: "Then you heard, but who wants to kidnap Miss?"
"Yes, it's exactly this part."
"But you and I went at different times, and all I heard was this passage." After Mo Feng said meaningfully, he looked at Lin Jinhua: "This is really strange."
"Someone did this on purpose, and I'm worried that this person is Zhao Qing." Zhao Qing's scheming is not superficial like other people's, his scheming is very, very deep, and even the talented people may not be as good as him.
After a few people finished speaking, they saw Ah Bao rushing in from the outside, and only when they got close did she hear her hurriedly say: "Miss, His Royal Highness King Jing is here."
"What is he here for?" Lin Jinhua remembered that her elder brother had already gone on duty early in the morning, and there were no male elders in the mansion at all.
"I just said I want to see Miss." Ah Bao said.
Mo Feng glanced at him and said, "Why don't you go and stop him?"
"Yeah." Lin Jinhua nodded. She didn't want to see Zhao Kan alone. This person is in a state of mind now. In his previous life, he treated him well and he abandoned him like a shoe. Now that he doesn't like him anymore, he seems to have changed his temper. Retribution?
Lin Jinhua felt cold.
When Mo Feng went out, he was still thinking about how to send Zhao Kan away, but he saw that he was already sitting leisurely in the flower hall drinking tea, and only went up to greet him, and said, "My lord, Miss..."
"Can't you come over?" Zhao Kan knew that Lin Jinhua would not come to see her, so he just smiled and said, "It will be the Empress Dowager's birthday in a few days. This is an invitation for Miss Lin."
Mo Feng looked at the post and was dumbfounded. The Queen Mother's birthday banquet is attended by relatives and relatives, when will they be allowed to go.
"His Royal Highness King Jing, this seems to be out of courtesy."
"Etiquette?" The corners of Zhao Kan's mouth curled up, "I let her go if I say so, so what else..."
"Third Emperor Brother seems to think too much?"
Before Zhao Kan finished his domineering words, he was interrupted by a cool voice.
Zhao Kan looked at the person coming, didn't it be rumored that he left the capital, why did he suddenly appear here?
"Brother Da Huang came at a lucky time."
"The third brother also came very early." Zhao Huaiyan came from the heavy rain, but his body was not wet by the rain, only a little bit colder.He just stepped in, and the maid on the side had already warmly prepared tea and led him to the first seat, as if he was already a family.
An unknown fire rose in Zhao Kan's heart, which made him feel uncomfortable.
Just as she was thinking, Lin Jinyu, who thought she would never show up, actually arrived at the door. She was wearing a long plain dress. Because of the sweltering heat, there was a slight sweat on her forehead and neck, and it seemed that even the front of her chest was a little wet. ...
Seeing his gaze, Zhao Huaiyan frowned, stood up and stood in front of Lin Jinhua, and said to Zhao Kan, "What else is the third brother?"
"Isn't it okay for my brother to send invitations to Ms. Lin?" Zhao Kan became more and more annoyed. For some reason, when he saw Lin Jinhua and Zhao Huaiyan seeming to be very intimate in secret, he felt like he was being cuckolded, which made him furious. .
Upon hearing this, Lin Jinhua saluted shallowly, and then said, "I dare not accept the invitation of His Royal Highness King Jing."
"You—!" Zhao Kan was at a loss for words, and Zhao Huaiyan glanced at Mo Feng: "His Royal Highness King Jing still has official duties, so he will be here soon."
Mo Feng responded and hurriedly stepped forward: "Please, Your Highness."
Seeing that Lin Jinhua was hiding behind Zhao Huaiyan without even looking at him, Zhao Kan was so angry that his face turned blue, and he said in a low voice, "Miss Lin, you want to drive me away too? Could it be that you want to stay with Prince Ning alone? Lin Mansion..."
"What is your Highness talking about!" Lin Jinhua was also annoyed, who is he, why should he say these things without thinking.Even if it is, what does it have to do with him!
Seeing Lin Jinhua walk out, Zhao Kan's eyes were full of anger, and he couldn't help but startled, an indescribable uneasiness surged up, as if he had been betrayed.
His heart was so sore, he simply pursed his lips, glanced at Zhao Huaiyan who seemed to be protecting her, turned his head and left in a fit of anger.
When Zhao Huaiyan saw him leave angrily, he didn't know that he had already fallen in love with Hua'er.But I'm sorry, you didn't cherish it in your last life, no matter what happens in this life, I can't give up Hua'er to you again.
"The chest is wet." Zhao Huaiyan stared in front of her from the corner of her eyes, the bulging part seemed to be bigger, maybe it was because she ran very fast just now, and her clothes are thin in summer, she probably sweats a lot The pieces are all wet, so it's no wonder that Zhao Kan just kept his eyes on him, and he really paid attention.
After saying that, Lin Jinhua's face flushed red, she covered her body and glared at him, then turned her head and ran back.
Zhao Huaiyan watched her trot away, her thin lips curled up slightly.
After Lin Jinhua finished changing her clothes and drank a cup of herbal tea, she suppressed her shame and anger just now. Knowing that Zhao Huaiyan was waiting in the front hall, she didn't bother to see her. He just laughed at herself. Could it be that she didn't like it?
Lin Jinzheng was so empty in her heart that she looked down at her growing body and became distressed. What if he doesn't like it in the future?Will you go to steal?Although she knew that his cold temper was unlikely, she couldn't stop worrying...
Just as he was thinking, he saw a stream of servants rushing in, each holding a box in their hands.
"What is this?" Ah Bao knew that the lady was distressed, and asked for her.
The leading maid smiled and said, "My lord bought them along the way. There are silk cloth, gold and silver jewellery, jewels and jade, and all kinds of elixir. There is also a box of elixir that is said to be domestically produced in Xixia."
"Elixir?" Lin Jinhua got a little interested, and asked someone to bring it, opened it, and found this broken ancient book inside.
Seeing this, Ah Bao hesitated: "Should I take this book to be revised?"
"No, such ancient books are the most precious. After revision, there will inevitably be missing pages and words. I'm afraid that if one word is wrong, the antidote will become poison." Lin Jinhua said casually, carefully put the ancient books away, and looked at the eye box again. Although the medicines in the pot are ordinary in appearance, they are all new to Jin Dynasty, and they have magical effects presumably.
After finishing the medicinal materials, she paused and looked at the person holding the medicine box. It didn't look like the young girl in front of her, but a neat woman about forty years old. She said it was a woman because she didn't pack it up. The woman in a bun, presumably has never been married.
"You are..." Lin Jinhua looked at her hesitantly, and when she saw Lin Jinhua, she also smiled slightly: "The servant girl is in a quilt. She used to be a medical girl who served in the Xixia Palace. This time, she has been favored by the prince and is here to serve the lady. Listen to what the lady said just now. The slaves also know a thing or two about ancient books, so they may be able to clear up the young lady's confusion."
Lin Jinhua was overjoyed. She had heard Huaiyan mention that Xixia was a country of medicine, and her medical skills were superb. She thought she could spy on him, but he actually found such a person.
Just as he was talking, Mo Feng came quickly from outside, glanced at Lin Jinhua, and said worriedly: "Miss, something happened to Master Xu."
"Which Master Xu?"
"Master Xu Chengqing." Mo Feng said.
It was only then that Lin Jinhua remembered that her cousin should be investigating Zheng Lai's death in the past few days. At the beginning, Zheng Lai was inexplicably poisoned, and she felt strange. Could it be that her cousin was also poisoned?
Before she could ask, Mo Feng had already said: "When my lord went to Zheng Lai's cell for inspection, he was also suddenly poisoned. Doctor Lu accompanied him, but said that there was no cure."
Lin Jinhua's heart tightened slightly, she looked at her quilt, and said softly, "I wonder if aunt can come with me?"
Quil Xi is not optimistic about the lady in the boudoir that the prince has in mind, but she has the prudence and benevolence of a doctor, and she is also calm and calm. I just wait to see if she has the talent to inherit her unique medical skills. .
"Miss, please." She accepted Lin Jinhua's 'aunt' with humility.
Seeing this, Lin Jinhua knew that she must not be something in the pool, and felt a little more at ease, so she asked someone to carry the medicine box, and hurried out of the mansion, hoping that this time she could save other people's medical skills repeatedly, and also be able to do so. Save my cousin!
