Chapter Twenty-Three: The Night Falls Deeply
"Don't you have anything to say for Young Master Ben to take back?" Bai Xiaoyao saw her stunned, her snow-white neck exposed to the air, a little embarrassed for a while, and couldn't help but divert the topic and ask.
Remembering that day above the Golden Palace, the head of the Son of Heaven's case, Yin Shaorui retreated left and right, and only asked him: "General Lin's children, what do you think?" ”
He didn't know why the saint suddenly asked this boundless question, thinking that he pitied the orphans and widows of the Lin family, but the Lin Mansion was still standing there, General Lin had an accident, and the Lin Mansion had also been here, or in front of them, so the weak were weak, if they said that they had no support, it didn't seem to make sense. Later, seeing that the Son of Heaven had stopped writing and looked up at him, Bai Xiaoyao clearly understood the situation of the Lin family, and the Son of Heaven was afraid that he had already found Ren Che to find out in advance. He rubbed the bridge of his nose and hated Ren Che at the same time, and actually held a grudge so much that he secretly put him together.
"The young master of the Lin family has a tiger head, after all, he is young, and he can't see anything for a while." The saint must have wanted to shape Lin Maozhi into a pillar of the imperial court, but thinking of Lin Fangyu's refusal when the Son of Heaven gave him a gift, Bai Xiaoyao unexpectedly wanted to take into account her feelings, and she could conclude from just her eyebrows that she didn't want her brother to repeat the mistakes of the past. So in this hesitation, he chose a seemingly ambiguous word that actually favored Lin Fangyu.
However, the saint had already made a decision in his heart, and he didn't have time to mention it again, so he thought to himself for a while and said: "I can't let General Lin go uneasy, I took pity on the generals and gave him preferential treatment for his family that day, but now that I think about it, it is inevitable that I will not think about it, and it is to push their sisters and brothers into danger." At the moment, there is a matter of Ren Bachelor, and it is inconvenient for Che to come forward. In the case of selling the official mantle, since you have found out the origin of Jinyang, this matter will be handled by you with full authority. Che has already found out about the Lin family's southward journey, since they are on the same road, you will take care of them a little more, and it will definitely ensure that they reach Jinyang safely. ”
Bai Xiaoyao secretly rolled his eyes, what kind of mercy did he have for the generals, and gave him preferential treatment, obviously putting this sister and brother on the chopping board, in order to test how they would deal with themselves in the face of danger. Look at the high-sounding words, sure enough, the heart of the Son of Heaven is not to be watched!
He came out of the palace, went home and brought a few sets of change of clothes, and when he rushed to the Lin Mansion again, he learned that the two young ladies of the Lin family had left the city, so he chased them non-stop, and finally caught up with them halfway. Before, I thought that the Holy Lord sent him to be a wayman, but he also believed that he was high and that he was overkill. It wasn't until he found the hay that had been fed in the stables raised in the inn, and then the thieves later, and then the people of the palace family in the later period came to find him, and he secretly paid attention to it, and found clues in the wheel, and then he felt that something was wrong. But he didn't investigate it thoroughly, but took the opportunity to give Lin Fangyu the evidence that he had been manipulated, and he believed that with her intelligence, he didn't need to break it, and he could understand it.
Lin Fangyu looked at the broken end and was silent, he suddenly felt a little distressed about the woman in front of him, although he lost his mother, he still has a warm home, his father is strict, but his stepmother is still kind, on the other hand, she lost her father in an instant, and she has to take the lead alone, there is a stepgrandmother's family eyeing her in front of her, and then there are unknown people who plan to murder, I don't know how many times harder than him!
"The food of the king, the worry of loyalty, loyalty to the country, even if the father died because of this, and the Lin Mansion paid a heavy price, it was also the duty of a courtier. The courtiers don't dare to have any more delusions, and they also hope that Your Majesty will put their minds at ease, the past is like the wind, and the courtiers will do their best to defend the rights of the Lin Mansion and protect their mothers and siblings. The court is an important matter, and His Majesty does not need to worry about it anymore. Lin Fangyu said slowly, bending her knees at Bai Xiaoyao. But in fact, the object of her blessing is the Son of Heaven who is far away in Biandu, and now it is just a substitute.
Along the way, at every critical juncture, because of his reminders or rescues, they have saved the day several times, and she doesn't understand the reason. It's just that she still underestimated her father's weight in the heart of an emperor, so in the face of these helps, she was even a little at a loss. She was afraid, afraid that once dependence was formed, the vigilance in her heart would be weakened, and she was even more afraid that she would harm her family again. So whether it's pity or guilt, she doesn't want it! She didn't want the Son of Heaven to plant a protective umbrella around them again, because no matter what kind of protective umbrella, no matter how sonorous and powerful this umbrella was, there were unexpected times when she couldn't catch off guard!
Her father has great ambitions in his life, and she doesn't want to get rid of her father's hind legs, let alone become a burden to others because of this matter. It is not the court that owes her, and it is not the Yin family that suffers her, but the palace family, Kang Pingbo Mansion and Ning Guo Mansion! She won't drag innocent people into the water, and she won't let anyone who has calculated their family go!
Bai Xiaoyao looked at it, a delicate little face was firm, and there was a pain that he secretly endured. The cheeks that didn't grow open were still a little fleshy, and he just looked at him without squinting and pretending to be calm!
Bai Xiaoyao wanted to laugh, holding her breath, obviously when he saved her, she was already trembling with fright, and she had to pretend to be strong. Obviously at the bottom of the cliff there was no end in sight, but she struggled to climb up, refusing to give up, even if she would never climb to the end. is obviously just a child's face, but he has to make an adult appearance in a humble and humble manner, and decide everything as an eldest sister. I already know that someone has a heart to assassinate me, and I can still say it as a joke with a smile on my face. What kind of fire pit is her home? He wanted to find out, to find out what she really was, but not yet, he had more important things to do, which was why he had to come here tonight to say goodbye.
"I will convey your words on your behalf, be careful." Bai Xiaoyao admonished, and quietly made a decision in his heart, but he was still not at ease at the end, and couldn't help but say more: "Jinyang's Zhizhou is an upright person, if you have a really unavoidable difficulty, maybe you can find him to help you with a foil or two." "At least this Zhizhou is currently a high-ranking official in Jinyang, and he has not found any evidence of his crimes, drought and buying and selling officials, he has not participated, he should be regarded as a good official.
"Lord Bai has too much heart, the little woman is just going to visit relatives, why is it difficult? Adults, let's go! Lin Fangyu was inexplicably angry, is she so weak that she has to rely on others for everything?
Yes, kindness was regarded as a donkey's liver and lungs, and he touched a gray nose when he mentioned it, and Bai Xiaoyao was also angry, he had never seen such a person, so he also flicked his sleeves and said: "I don't know what to do!" Saying that, he jumped through the front door, and was just seen by the Bauhinia who came to add water, and thought that the bandits were coming again, so frightened that the basin was lost, and the water was sprinkled on the ground, and he hurriedly rushed inside to call Lin Fangyu.
Lin Fangyu hid her body in the water and said indifferently: "I'm fine, I just heard a cat meow, and accidentally slipped and filled the water." ”
Zijing looked back at the shadow that flashed just now, is it a cat? But she didn't say anything after all, picked up the basin and went out again.
Lin Fangyu didn't have the heart to think about whether Zijing had seen anything, thinking that she was going to see her aunt tomorrow, and the cold hairs on her whole body were about to stand up!
