Chapter 157: Mutual Suspicion

On the second day, when the news of Wu Jingren's death was reported to the imperial court, Xiahou Yixuan, who had always been as gentle as a spring breeze, couldn't help but be furious. The matter has not been clarified, the person died first, and many clues that have not been dug up have been interrupted, how many shady things has Wu Jingren secretly done, and who should he ask for? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but angrily say that Pei Yuan, the secretary of the Criminal Department, was not doing well, and he didn't know the severity of his actions, and let the prisoner be tortured to death. After saying that, he didn't give him any chance to refute, and put him in prison on the spot, and sent a henchman he had cultivated to take over the criminal department.

Things happened too quickly, and Xiahou Yixuan dismissed Pei Yuan from his post with a final word. Yi Hongyuan didn't even have a chance to react with respite, and saw that the criminal department was out of control from him, and he was caught off guard for a while.

As soon as Wu Jingren died, the happiest person was Lin Lanhai, and the most suspicious person was Lin Lanhai. Although he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he knew that now was not the time to relax, Wu Jingren was dead, but he would definitely leave his handle to the Feng family. Those account books are too important, but now all eyes are on him, how dare he act rashly at the critical moment.

Also happy are Xiahou Yixuan and Xiahou Yichen, although everything was in their expectations, Wu Jingren was destined to be a dead man, but because of his death, he took the opportunity to take back the criminal department, and he could be regarded as a well-deserved death. As for the cause of his death, the two of them knew it but pretended not to know, anyway, if they want to take back the criminal department, this basin must be detained on Pei Yuan, no matter whether he committed suicide in fear of crime or died of torture, in short, the news was blocked from the beginning, and who knows how he died. And Xiahou Yixuan didn't intend to pursue it, how could anyone who knew dare to tell the truth by throwing himself into the net, so that the Wu family was cheaper.

Everything ended with the death of Wu Jingren, and all the property obtained from the Wu Mansion was handed over to the state treasury regardless of the source. The family members of the Wu Mansion were all exiled for 3,000 miles, and they were slaves for life and labored for a lifetime.

After making a decision, the innocent people who let Fu Da's life escape have been thanked, and they have praised the benevolence of the current emperor, and they have won a good reputation without much effort.

In the Lin Mansion, when he learned the news of Wu Jingren's death, Wu built a simple mourning hall in the courtyard with a sad face, put on the spirit card to offer fruits, and knelt on the spot in white plain clothes, burning paper money.

The handmaid served by her side, comforting her from time to time.

The light of the fire reflected her pale face and burned her heart, but she did not hear a word of comfort. The face that was in high spirits not long ago is like an old woman who has run out of oil and a lamp, and she has no vitality. Wu smiled sadly, her hands, how many people's blood was decisively stained, and in the end, even her own brother was planted in her hands, and she killed her own brother who depended on her for her life.

Retribution is not happy, it turns out that killing people is really not a happy thing. How did you get to where you are today?

"Madam, people can't be resurrected after death, and the festival mourns and changes." Li'er whispered.

"Those two children, give them a sum of money and send them away. Let them go as far as they can, and never come back in this life. Wu muttered.

"Yes, the slave will arrange it immediately." Li'er nodded, and just got up to leave, when she raised her eyes, she saw Lin Lanhai standing not far away, and her little face changed color in fright. "Old ...... Master. ”

"Hmph." Lin Lanhai had just come back from the court, and the official uniform had not yet been changed, and when he suddenly bumped into this scene, he couldn't help but snort coldly, but he ignored her. walked straight to Wu's side, looked down at her condescendingly, and said coldly: "What, you want to release those two little evil seeds, and they will come back to take revenge on Master Ben in the future?" ”

"My brother has died as you want, what do you want?" Wu asked with a pale face.

"He is dead, but his seed is alive. Cutting grass does not remove roots, and there are many dreams at night. Lin Lanhai stared straight at Wu, squinted, and his eyes flashed with poison. There is one thing he has never figured out, the poison that the Wu family sent to Wu Jingren, the emperor didn't realize the blame, and actually asked Pei Yuan to be a substitute for her.

"Innocent, do you have to kill them all? My brother did such a thing for you, and in the end you refused to let go of any of his blood. Wu roared loudly, with a look of despair.

The brother she promised to protect his child, how could Lin Lanhai persecute her like this.

"I let them go, who will let me go. If one Wu Jingren dies, wouldn't it be better to send them all down for a family reunion. "Anyway, his handle is still in Feng's hands, since he can't get it back now, then he will turn this life-saving talisman into a life-saving talisman for her. Lin Lanhai's eyes were gloomy, and he said with a deep smile: "You are obedient and obedient, and you are still the master mother of the Lin Mansion." If you can't bear it, hum ......"

Although the words are not finished, the meaning is self-evident. "You ......" Wu Shi was shocked, and suddenly his whole body was cold, and his eyes were full of horror and disbelief.

"Madam, it's no good, the two young masters have been robbed." At this moment, a subordinate hurriedly arrived.

Suddenly hearing the news, Wu got up in shock, "What? ”

"What's going on?" Lin Lanhai's face was extremely ugly. He didn't even change his official uniform and came over in a hurry today, just to solve the two sisters-in-law of the Wu Mansion. Wu Jingren is dead, but those account books have not been brought back, and it is a disaster to keep them.

"We were ordered to guard the two young masters, and not long ago, three well-trained men in black suddenly came and robbed them." Thinking that his little life was almost gone, the next person was still a little apprehensive when he replied.

"Who did it?" Lin Lanhai turned his head and glared at Wu fiercely. Could it be that Wu Jingren still has a back hand. He thought about it and felt that it was impossible, the Wu Mansion raided the house very suddenly, and he shouldn't have time to prepare. Besides, on this momentum, no one dares to help him.

Wu glared at him at the same time, and the two of them saw suspicion in each other's eyes. It's not that she is too careful, but what Lin Lanhai has done has made her heart cold, and no one in this world would want those two children to die more than him. "Look at what I'm doing, isn't it you?" She snapped.

Lin Lanhai snorted: "You should understand, if it is this master, I will deal with it directly, why do you need to go around in circles." As he spoke, he scolded the subordinates who reported it: "A group of useless waste, the guards can't see it well, so don't hurry up and check it on me." I can't find anyone, so I'll see you. After speaking, he threw up his sleeves and left, and walked towards the Bairong Courtyard without looking back.

As soon as he left, Wu suddenly sat on the ground softly, lost his soul.

Li'er hurriedly stepped forward to support her, "Madam, could it be the old man's ......?" ”

Wu shook his head blankly, "It shouldn't be." Although she also had some suspicions, what Lin Lanhai said was indeed right, if it was him, he would not have come to such a hand, and he would definitely solve the matter on the spot.

Now, she doesn't know who rescued the person. is so timely, does my brother really have a backhand?

"So what do we do now?" Li'er said worriedly.

Wu Shi was stunned for a moment, and shook her head heavily, she didn't know what to do now. I only hope that the two children were really rescued, and instead of escaping from the wolf's den and entering the tiger's den, they were used by people with intentions.

In short, no matter what, it can be regarded as escaping from Lin Lanhai's poisonous hands.

In the courtyard of the palace, the girl's long black hair was simply tied up, and she was dressed in plain clothes, and suddenly changed from a woman to a handsome man.

Lan Yu gently draped the cloak on Lin Xiaoyu's body, and said melancholy: "Miss is just sick, can't you not go out?" ”

Lin Xiaoyou shook his head, his white face raised a slight smile, not how warm or cold, but he just looked up at the gray sky, and his thoughtful eyes revealed a little sad nostalgia. Then he tightened his cloak and said indifferently: "Let's go, Sister Lan." ”

At the back door, Dongfan was already waiting here in a car. "Princess, where are you going?"

"Dali Temple." Lin Xiaoyou spit out a few words lightly, which surprised Lan Yu beside her very worried, but she didn't ask anything in the end, and helped her into the carriage.

Travel all the way unobstructed, when driving to the busy road. Suddenly, there was a commotion: "Murder!" Kill! The crowd surged, the horses neighed, the frightened crowd ducked, some watching the show, some faintly fleeing, and the wide street was immediately in chaos.

"What's going on?" Lin Xiaoyou leaned over to ask, only to see that Dongfan was also full of doubts, and looked ahead with a calm expression.

Following his gaze, in the chaotic crowd ahead, a black figure lay on the horse's back without life, unable to see his face clearly, and an arrow pierced through his chest from behind, and bright red blood ticked down the arrow, staining the ground red.

"Okay, I don't know what's going on, suddenly an arrow feather flew in the air, and it pierced the person's body at once, which was terrifying." In the crowd, the insider was panicking and explaining to the unknown people around him.

Losing the control of its master, the horse whisked its hooves and screamed in place, as if feeling sorry for its master.

Killing people on the street, how bold and good it is to shoot the target so accurately. Lin Xiaoyou was about to go out to see what was going on, but Lan Yu was worried that something would happen and hurriedly stopped her. "Miss, don't go out."

When the words fell, Dong Fan, who had been watching the situation ahead, seemed to have noticed something, and suddenly jumped out of the carriage with a big change in his face, and said urgently: "It's Beiming." ”

North Underworld? Lin Xiaoyou and Lan Yu were shocked at the same time, and they couldn't believe it, but they knew that since Dongfan was so sure, it was a matter of eight or nine. The two of them did not hesitate, and quickly jumped out of the carriage and rushed over.

When you get closer, it is really as Dongfan said, it is the North Hell, which has not been seen for some days. His eyes were closed, his lips were chapped, and cold sweat was dripping from his forehead, and he looked tired and weak, as if he had been on a long journey. In addition, he lost too much blood and fell into a coma, his face was pale and colorless, and his condition was extremely critical.

What the hell is Beiming doing after going out for so long? Obviously, he has returned to Dragon Studios, and he was poisoned by someone. Lin Xiaoyou and the three of them couldn't be surprised anymore, and Dongfan hurriedly stepped forward to help him check his pulse and check his injuries.

Lan Yu watched from the side and couldn't help asking, "How is the injury?" ”

Lin Xiaoyou turned around, and saw that she looked anxious and sad, and couldn't help but comfort: "Sister Lan, don't worry, bring people back to the house first." ”

Dongfan shook his head, "It's too late, Beiming is very seriously injured, there are several injuries all over his body, I'm afraid that he has experienced many chases, plus the fatal arrow just now, he lost too much blood, and it will take a lot of time to return home, I'm afraid he won't be able to last that time." ”

Unexpectedly, the situation in Beiming was so serious, Lin Xiaoyou frowned, and said worriedly: "Then what should I do?" We can't just watch him die and go to the hospital, the nearest hospital nearby. It is necessary to save him at all costs, and never let him have an accident. ”

I went out alone, but I didn't expect to come back like this, looking at the blood that kept dripping, Lan Yu's heart was sour, and she said urgently: "That's right, it's important to stop the bleeding first." ”

At this point, this is the best thing to do. Dongfan didn't say much, and carefully got the person down and sent him to the nearest medical center.

In a restaurant not far away, a cold gaze stared at them through the crack in the window, and then snapped the window shut.

Beiming is Xiahou Yichen's henchman, and without his orders, he will never go out easily. Why was he chased back when he left? Lin Xiaoyou thought about it and asked Dongfan, "Did you see what was happening in front of you just now?" ”

Dongfan shook his head, "No." After all, after some distance, as soon as my subordinates drove there, there was a commotion in front of me, and the crowd was panicked and crowded, and I was forced to stop the carriage. I didn't know what was going on, and I didn't know that the person who had the accident would be Beiming. ”

Even Dong Fan didn't see it clearly, which showed how fast the person who started the move was, "Where is the prince now?" ”
