Chapter 198: Deliberation
Back at the inn, Bai Yi waved away the others, followed Lin Bining to her room, closed the door, and saw her sitting upright on the stool, staring at the teacup in front of the table without blinking. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
He poured a cup of hot water and put it in the palm of her hand, moved a stool and sat next to her, held it together with her hand and teacup, and asked softly, "Ning'er, what's wrong?" ”
His eyes are gentle like water, and when he looks at people, he is like a spring breeze, and the warm sun shines on his body, as if he is soaking in the steaming hot spring water, and his frozen and rigid body is warmed.
Bai Yi has only known her for more than a year, but he treats her as a treasure, and some people have been with her for more than ten years, but they ruthlessly want her to die!
The human heart is a complicated thing.
The eyes were sour and astringent, the tears condensed instantly, and the tea splashed into the cup. Bai Yi hurriedly wiped his tears, and coaxed distressedly: "Don't cry, don't cry, if you don't want to say it, don't say it, I won't ask, don't ask." ”
Lin Bining's tears became more and more fierce, but she just cried silently, threw herself into Bai Yi's arms, hugged his sturdy waist, and then vented her emotions.
This is the first time she has taken the initiative to give her a hug.
Next to her head was the pointed corner of the table, Bai Yi was worried that she would bump into it, and the stool in the inn was sitting on the diaphragm, so he simply picked the person up, strode to the edge of the bed and sat down, letting her sit cross-legged on his legs, leaning on his arms.
The body suddenly took off, Lin Bining was so shocked that she forgot to cry, and after sitting on his lap, she was still buried in his chest, and her clothes were wet and wet, all of which were her tears, so she was even more embarrassed.
She is not a person who loves to cry a lot, how can she become a little crying bag after being with him, and the tears shed in the past few days are even more than she has shed in more than ten years.
Under Bai Yi's gentle touch, Lin Bining gradually calmed down, and said without raising her head: "It's embarrassing......" The voice was muffled and nasal.
"Don't be ashamed, cry if you want to cry in front of me, laugh if you want to laugh, I just want you to be your truest self." Bai Yi chuckled, "Come, wash my little flower cat's face." ”
After speaking, he held up Lin Bining's face, and kissed one kiss after another on the tear-stained face, sucking away the remaining tears. Her face gradually became hot, although she was ashamed, she did not avoid it, her apricot eyes widened, staring at Bai Yi intently.
If there was no killer to chase and kill, she probably hadn't recognized her heart yet, and they shouldn't have been together yet. If that person knew that this move had contributed to her fate with Prince Zhong's son, he was afraid that a mouthful of silver teeth would be crushed.
Thinking of this, she bent the corners of her lips, smiling brightly, like a delicate flower with buds and dew in the morning, which caused Bai Yi to hold her lips and tongue to absorb the fragrance. It took a long time for the two of them to stop panting.
Lin Bining moved her body, found a more comfortable position to lean, and said softly: "Do you know who wrote that note?" Who wants my life? ”
Her voice was soft, but with an indissoluble coldness, Bai Yi's warm hand rubbed over her face, and asked along with her words, "Who is it?" ”
"The words on the note are written by my mother's most useful maid chess, although it is far from her usual handwriting, but I have seen her words twice, because it is rare for a maid to be able to write as well as her, so I am very impressed by her words, and her crooked hook will finally put the pen in, and I will never admit that I am wrong."
She sneered lightly: "The route I traveled to was only known to the people in the house, I originally thought that another person bought and killed me, but judging from the measures of the chess warning, it should be my good mother who wants my life, Zhao Ruyue of the Zhao family." It's just that I don't have a relationship with Shiqi, so I don't know why she helped me. ”
He stroked her back and said, "The person you thought was before, but Zhao Yicheng?" ”
"Yes, how did you guess?" Lin Bining looked at him suspiciously.
Bai Yi coughed unnaturally: "When Ling Zun invited me to the banquet, when I left the next day, I found that Zhao Yicheng was following me. Later, I checked him and found that he had colluded with Huang Yue, and he was also making trouble about Gongxiang. In addition, I tested him at the table, he should not be from Yicheng, and my people have no other unusual behaviors except for finding that he has frequent contact with petty officials like Huang Yue. Do you suspect him, isn't he having a grudge against your family? ”
Lin Bining simply told him that Zhao Yicheng was fake, Bai Yi tapped his fingers on his knees after hearing this, and said after thinking for a while: "I have investigated this person, it is really impossible for Zhao Yicheng to be in Shangdu, and it is unlikely that he will be imprisoned, after all, people are not locked up under their noses, who doesn't know what will happen, he won't rest assured." The most likely thing is that this Zhao Yicheng didn't know how to persuade the real Zhao Yicheng to give up his identity, or, the easiest way is to kill the real Zhao Yicheng, then there will be only one Zhao Yicheng left in the world. ”
The more Lin Bining thought about it, the more she felt that Bai Yi's final guess was right, only the dead would not come out to expose Zhao Yicheng, and couldn't help but lose her voice: "If Zhao Yicheng is really no longer alive, then how can we find out Zhao Yicheng's identity, and how can we know about his grudge with the Lin family?" ”
"Don't panic," he patted her on the back, "I asked the soldiers to divide into two ways, all the way to Yicheng to check on Zhao Jizheng's father and son, starting from the people they know, they will definitely be able to find some clues." On the other hand, he took Zhao Yicheng's portrait and checked it from the towns he passed through all the way north, and there would always be people who knew him. ”
"Well," Lin Bining nodded, "By the way, I heard the maids mention that Zhao Yicheng knew the news of the Zhao family in Shangdu in Cixin, and I think I should be able to find some clues when I go to Cixin." ”
"Ning'er, your route to the south has been leaked, and we still need to re-plan the route. In addition, we have to be more careful in Yunlong City, I guess the Benevolence Hall will send people to attack you here again. This murderous organization is ruthless, claiming that no one dares to kill, but there is a rule that if the assassination is unsuccessful three times, the person will not be pursued again. ”
Lin Bining smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid that the next two times will be more dangerous, has anyone escaped under them three times before?" ”
Bai Yi didn't answer, this answer was naturally no, he thought for a while and proposed: "Ning'er, have you ever thought about changing back into women's clothes, Renxintang only knew that it was Lin Changru that they were going to kill, but they didn't know that you were not Lin Changru." ”
Lin Bining sat up from his arms excitedly, shook her head and said: "No, if I change back to women's clothes, Peng Yue will definitely find out my identity, and then my father will also know about me disguised as a man. ”
Seeing that she reacted so much, Bai Yi hugged her back and leaned back on him, and smiled helplessly: "Don't get excited, you don't want to recover your daughter's body, I won't force you." However, I have always wondered why you are pretending to be Lin Changru, where did the real Lin Changru go? ”
