Lin Long's expression was solemn, Gao Zhi's words were quite tempting, and for a while, she grabbed the handkerchief in her hand, and her lips were very tight.

She didn't say anything, but Gao Zhi smiled even more proudly, "Miss Lin, Ming people don't say secret words, if I can't do it, I won't give you a promise casually." The folding fan in his hand opened and shook it, "Miss Lin is a smart person." Then the handle of the fan was closed, and he made an inviting gesture.

Lin Long's mood is very complicated, Gao Zhi's attitude gave her a lot of associations, thinking of Ah Fei in prison, she really wants to talk to him privately, but this consequence does not seem to be something she can afford, in case Gao Zhi just uses this excuse to achieve the goal of being a pro-Fang Ze, according to his amorous nature, it is very possible.

At that time, not only will she not be able to save Afei's family, but she will also lose her last retreat.

The steps under her feet moved forward, if she really took this step, her marriage contract with Ye Xuyao would be over, this was the last card in her hand, thinking of Ye Xuyao's anger yesterday because of her doubts, and what she said in the car before, she held the handkerchief tightly, and the small step back and took it back.

She can not love Ye Xuyao, but she can't care less about this marriage, she believes in Ye Xuyao's promise more than Gao Zhi.

After the inner struggle, she smiled more calmly, "Thank you Uncle Gao Guo for your kindness, I believe that Uncle Bei will not do anything really as a traitor, and he will definitely be released safely in the end, after all, our Dashun Dynasty still has national law, Uncle Gao Guo, don't you say?" ”

In the dark where Lin Long and Gao Zhi didn't see, someone snorted slightly, as if he was quite satisfied with her stagnant movements, but he didn't say anything.

Gao Zhi suffocated with a smug smile on his face, what a sharp-toothed girl, if he is alarmist, doesn't that mean that there is no national law in the Dashun Dynasty? He is the brother-in-law of the Son of Heaven, and once such words are spoken, if they are true, the consequences will be severe.

Gripping the folding fan in his hand tightly, he approached, "Miss Lin, just don't regret it, such a good thing doesn't happen every day, when you ask for it next time, maybe I shouldn't do it?" ”

Lin Long took two steps back and distanced himself from him, "Uncle Gao, I'm afraid you won't be able to wait for this day, if there is nothing important, the little girl still has an appointment with her stepmother, take the first step." With a slight bow, she turned away without hesitation.

"Wait." Gao Zhi looked at her and turned around, all the anger came up, and he stepped forward to block her way.

Lin Long looked up at him unhappily, "Uncle Gao, good dogs don't get in the way, what do you mean by this?" This is not your mansion, you have to act recklessly......"

Gao Zhi stopped her only subconsciously, looking at this face that was still not childish, he didn't know why he was so persistent? Which woman he's ever hugged isn't prettier than her? Which one doesn't understand the amorous style better than her? But she was the only one who let him ignore his identity, and he was still stubborn like a subordinater despite her repeated refusals. "That's what you think of me? Miss Lin, I don't have any merit in your eyes? ”

His expression was rather solemn, as if he was very persistent in her answer.

Lin Long sighed, "Uncle Gao, do you have any merits, I really have to ask about your future wife, not an outsider like a little girl." The little woman doesn't know where she provoked you, so you appear in front of the little woman again and again, you say it, and I will correct it immediately. After a pause, "If the little woman has done something wrong, the little woman will solemnly apologize to you......"

Her words to clear up the relationship made people itch to hear, Gao Zhi never thought that one day he would meet me who was sincere to Mingyue, but Mingyue shone on the ditch.

In anger, he grabbed Lin Long's arm and pulled her out, "Let's talk." ”

Lin Long didn't expect him to really move, it was one thing to be pulled away by Ye Xuyao, and it was another thing to be pulled away by him, she was busy shouting, "Let go......" looked at Mrs. Zheng's maid on the side.

The maid was also dumbfounded, she had never met anyone who dared to make such a kidnapping move in the governor's yamen, touching Lin Long's gaze, this was his wife's righteous daughter, she said stubbornly: "This lord, please let go quickly, Miss Lin is our wife's guest ......"

Before he finished speaking, Gao Zhi shot a cold look, and the maid was suddenly so frightened that she trembled and didn't dare to persuade again.

Lin Long was held away by Gao Zhi, she reached out and patted his hand, "Uncle Gao, let go, do you really have to tear your face?" Uncle Gao, you don't have a face, I still have a face......"

When Gao Zhi heard this, he stood in place, turned his head and looked at her with an unkind expression, he was shameless? A wave of anger rose from under his eyes.

Seeing him stop, Lin Long didn't hesitate this time, raised his other hand and slapped him in the face fiercely, with a "snap", very loud, "Why don't you let go quickly?" She glared at him.

Her strength was limited, Gao Zhi didn't feel a pain in her face, but she was the first woman who dared to hit him, that feeling was quite unpleasant, he was about to leave with her in his arms, but when he turned his head, he saw someone walking not far away, and he was stunned.

Lin Long, who was blocked by him, kicked him hard, "Uncle Gao, do you hear when you let go?" ”

"Uncle Gao, where are you going to take my fiancée?" Ye Xuyao said coldly, these words don't sound like greetings, but with the smell of mountain rain, this man is not dead yet?

He stepped forward and grabbed Lin Long to his side, and looked at Gao Zhi coldly, Gao Zhi's hand was still holding Lin Long's arm, and this time he also looked at Ye Xuyao defiantly.

"Miss Lin, you don't have the only choice?" Gao Zhidao, the scene of Ye Xuyao ignoring Lin Long's departure before fell into his eyes, and the two felt that there was a gap, so they naturally had his chance.

"Uncle Gao Guo said this too late? I have already exchanged Geng posts with Miss Lin, and we are about to get engaged, are you talking like this now, is your Gao family going to completely turn against my Ye family? You and I are not friends, but you can't play with my wife. Ye Xuyao sneered, naturally he would not give him the opportunity.

"The person who is qualified to make the choice is Miss Lin." Gao Zhi raised his eyebrows and smiled, his eyes looked at Lin Long affectionately, "Miss Lin, what he can give you, I can also give it, as long as you nod, I can marry you, I Gao Zhi can naturally not be joking." ”。

If he can get Lin Long by marrying a wife, then he will marry her even if he overcomes all difficulties.

Lin Long hasn't reacted yet, but Fu Nian and Zheng Huahan on the side are wide-eyed, this Lin Long is just a fifteen-year-old girl, she is good-looking and has not yet reached the point of being loved by everyone, why did these two fight?

Lin Long, who was sandwiched between the two, felt that the smell of gunpowder between the two was getting stronger, Gao Zhi said that he wanted to marry her as his wife, which really surprised her, and her eyes widened in an instant, what did Gao Zhi like about her? She really doesn't know anything, compared to Qi Niang's gentle and understanding of serving men, she can only be a green fruit.

When did she become a sought-after sweetheart?

But in private, she didn't have the slightest joy, she really wanted to scold her mother, she had already decided that she was married to Ye Xuyao, and she couldn't change it anymore, so Gao Zhi's words were forgotten, there was no need to take it to heart, how could he take it seriously just by talking about it? Marriage matters still need the approval of the elders in the family to be counted, at least Ye Zhong's recognition of her now.

After weighing the pros and cons, she knows which one to choose, and besides, she is never short-sighted.

Ye Xuyao couldn't help but pull down her face because she hadn't been silent for so long, what did she have to hesitate? The hand holding Lin Long's wrist was about to urge her.

Lin Long moved closer to Ye Xuyao's direction, and was almost hugged by him, "Uncle Gao Guo is drunk and talking nonsense?" The little woman should have never heard of it, the little woman has promised to marry others, and there is no one woman who marries two husbands who has lost her chastity, and Uncle Gao Guo also asks for self-respect. She lifted her eyes slightly, and looked at Zheng Huahan secretly.

Zheng Huahan suddenly came back to his senses, and hurriedly stepped forward to pull Lin Long's arm out of the stunned Gao Zhi's hand, and said: "Uncle Gao Guo is drunk, come on, come on, I'll send you out, no wonder you talk nonsense for a while......"

Try to treat Uncle Gao's confession as drunk nonsense, so as not to damage Lin Long's reputation is the most appropriate behavior.

Lin Long secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that this righteous brother was still somewhat useful.

Ye Xuyao suddenly punched Gao Zhi in the face, Gao Zhi stumbled and fell to the ground, and suddenly looked back at Ye Xuyao, his expression was tense, and the fist in his hand was clenched.

Ye Xuyao tidied up his sleeves, "Uncle Gao, this punch is what you deserve, don't pester my fiancée next time, you'd better remember it for me." ”

Lin Long didn't expect this to happen, so he covered his mouth with his hand and exclaimed in a low voice.

Ye Xuyao looked back at her, and suddenly reached out to hold her wrist and pull her away, in the eyes of so many outsiders, she didn't resist, and quietly followed him and left, without even looking back at Gao Zhi.

Gao Zhi clenched his fists and was about to fight back, but Zheng Huahan stopped him, "Uncle Gao, calm down......"

Fu Nian sneered and squinted at Gao Zhi, "Uncle Gao, it's your fault in this matter, Ziyang and Miss Lin are about to get married, and you don't have to intervene for a long time." ”

Gao Zhi glared at Fu Nian with red eyes, suddenly shook off Zheng Huahan's hand that stopped him, snorted heavily, and turned his head away.

Zheng Huahan and Fu Nian glanced at each other, and both shrugged helplessly.

"I didn't expect that your righteous sister still has the potential to be a celebrity." Fu Nian sighed, but the meaning of his words was a little ridiculous.

Zheng Huahan's face turned pale, "Brother Fu, you can eat things indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense." ”

Isn't it a good word for a red face? Such words that damage Lin Long's reputation must not be spread, Zheng Huahan thought for a while, and decided to deal with possible insiders later, and even issued a gag order in the house. His cold gaze looked at the maid who had guided Lin Long before.

The maid was so frightened that her hairs stood on end, "Uncle, the slave didn't hear anything, I didn't see anything...... and there was already a cry behind her.

"You'd better remember your words, or you won't have your good fruit to eat." Zheng Huahan warned him, but in private he had decided to send this maid away afterwards, and there must be no rumors.

The ridiculous look on Fu Nian's face retracted, his previous words were indeed thoughtless, and he could only reflect deeply at this time.

Lin Long, who was dragged away by Ye Xuyao, passed a corner, and when no one saw it, her meekness was put away, and she suddenly shook off Ye Xuyao's hand, he really didn't have a temper at all when she did?

Ye Xuyao stood and looked at her with a cold face.

Lin Long rubbed his wrist, "I'm not the one you call and come and go, didn't you disdain me before?" What's that now? Ye Gongzi, even if I want to marry you, I am dignified. He looked at him with his head held high, and put on a clear posture of confrontation.

"So you're angry now?"

"Of course."

Lin Long didn't care about it before, it doesn't mean that she is a temperless person, but which is more important, she can tell the difference, and if she wants to mess with Ye Xuyao, she can't do it in front of others, so she can only express her dissatisfaction in private.

She bowed, "I'm going to meet my stepmother, one step ahead." ”

After speaking, he was about to go to the inner house, in fact, there was no need for anyone to guide the way, she still knew the way after coming so many times.

Ye Xuyao stretched out his hand to pull her and push her against the red pillar, supported the sides of her head with both hands, leaned over to look at her with angry eyes, and suddenly, the previous sullenness was swept away, and he wanted to bow his head and get close to her.

Lin Long turned his head away from her, don't think that he could get her so easily, he pushed him away with both hands, "Get out of the way, don't get in the way, I'm not in the mood to flirt with you now, the case of the Ah Fei family is not over yet......"

"Didn't I tell you not to worry?" He frowned, she just couldn't learn this.

Lin Long glared at him, "I just look at the results, Ye Gongzi, when one day Ah Fei is free of prison and disaster, it doesn't matter if I make love to you again, now I don't want to, and I can't." ”

The meaning of these words is heavy, Ye Xuyao instantly understood the subtext, if he wants to get close to her, he has to be her good friend to get out of prison, otherwise, as long as the girl named Bei Mingfei is still in prison, there is no need to talk about it.

He deliberately snubbed her, and he really didn't know who was deliberately making it bad?

"Is that friend so important to you?"

"Ah Fei is my friend since I was a child, do you say it matters? As long as there is the slightest chance to save her, I will not let it go. ”

Lin Long showed his heart, especially now that Pei Yu's concubines and concubines have not been imprisoned, they have all been scattered, and all the family wealth has been sealed, and the situation seems to be more and more unoptimistic.

Ye Xuyao looked at her stubborn expression steadily, and she also held her head high for him to see.

Just as the two were competing with each other, a dog barking came not far away, followed by Zheng Xizhu's voice, "Da Hei, don't go over there, Sister Long didn't come from there......"

"Someone is coming, and you still won't let go?" Lin Long hurriedly said, it was Zheng Xizhu who came to look for her, the dog's nose was sensitive, and he smelled her, so he came over.

Ye Xuyao closed his hands and circled her tightly, and under her protest and stunned, he lowered his head and sucked her red lips, Lin Long's expression was stunned, was he crazy? Didn't you hear the barking of the dog getting closer and closer to Zheng Xizhu's voice?

"You...... Put...... Open...... I...... Hmm......" Her protests were swallowed up by him.

Lin Long felt that her feet were sore, on the one hand, she was anxious, afraid that people would find out that the two were making out here, and on the other hand, this act similar to cheating was really exciting, and her hand that she originally refused changed to clutching his clothes.

After a while, he let go of her lips and reached out to caress her red lips, "Remember what I said, and I will give you an explanation soon." ”

When the big black dog pounced, Ye Xuyao's white figure flashed, leaving her alone, she looked at his back, touched her lips, and was a little confused.

The big black dog circled around her, and rubbed Lin Long's calf affectionately with its own fur, barking "whining", and its tail swayed from side to side.

Lin Long squatted down and reached out to stroke the dog's head, and the big black dog squinted his eyes comfortably.

"Long...... Sister. Zheng Xizhu gasped when he ran over, and it took a while to speak fluently, "You are really here, I thought it was a big black and blind, hey, how did you take this road?" It's going to take a long detour. ”

Lin Long straightened up, "It's a fork in the road." "I didn't explain too much, and I hid the previous drama of two men fighting for one woman, which is not a glorious thing, not worth mentioning.

Zheng Xizhu didn't doubt him, and stepped forward to take Lin Long and walked towards Mrs. Zheng's courtyard.

Along the way, the two and a dog were very affectionate.

When I arrived at Mrs. Zheng's courtyard, I heard Zheng Nanzhu's voice inside, "Mother, I have prepared everything in Beijing, by the way, Xizhu's girl will also go together?" ”

When Zheng Xizhu heard her name, she held Lin Long's hand tightly, and the smile on her face disappeared, she didn't care about not going to Beijing, but later heard the old people in the house say that her marriage still has to be decided by her grandmother, in case her grandmother lives in Beijing for a year and a half and then comes back, she will be completely delayed.

Lin Long felt Zheng Xizhu's nervousness, reached out and patted the back of her hand, and the maid on the side lifted the curtain, and she and Zheng Xizhu happily entered.

"Sister Lin is here?" Zheng Nanzhu got up to greet him. "Why is it so late?"

"There was a delay on the road." Lin Long said with a smile, "Fortunately, I met the third sister, otherwise I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to find my way over." Hurry up and salute Mrs. Zheng.

Mrs. Zheng affectionately pulled Lin Long to get up, "Then the maid who went to pick you up Yan Zòng was derelict in her duties, and I will discipline her well when I go back." ”

"It's none of her business, it's just me looking at the garden on the road and losing it for a while." Lin Long was embarrassed to say that there was no need to harm the innocent.

Mrs. Zheng smiled and patted her hands.

"By the way, when I came in, I heard Second Sister Zheng talking about going to Beijing? Ready so soon? I haven't cleaned it up yet. Lin Long said with wide eyes.

"What else do you have to pack? Just bring you with you, I think Ye Gongzi will be satisfied. Jung Nam-joo made fun of her.

Lin Long's face suddenly burned.

Mrs. Zheng glanced at her daughter, "Poor mouth, you should be beaten, is this what your daughter's family should say?" Sister Long, don't worry about her stinky mouth. ”

Lin Long smiled shyly and avoided this topic, "When the time comes, I will be accompanied by the second sister and the third sister on the road, I am afraid that I will not be lonely this time, stepmother, do you say?" ”

With her words, Zheng Xizhu's trip to Beijing was formulated.

Zheng Nanzhu glanced at her third sister with a smile, sure enough, the person who came out of the house has a lot of tricks, but it doesn't matter, why should she worry too much about the first sister, she still has this demeanor.

Zheng Xizhu looked at Lin Long secretly gratefully.

"Why did my stepmother call me?" Lin Long asked.

"It's for the Bei family's case." Mrs. Zheng said solemnly: "Don't meddle in this case, I'm afraid that you will behave inappropriately out of your feelings, which will not benefit you at all......"

Especially what happened last night, she also heard her son mention that she didn't have a good night's sleep, and now the matter of recognizing her righteous relatives can be said to be a sure thing, and this marriage cannot be lost, otherwise all the efforts of their Zheng family will be in vain.

Zheng Nanzhu also got up and sat down beside Lin Long, looking like a good sister, "Sister, don't be stupid, it's not worth it for a Bei Mingfei, now you are destined to go up, but she can only go all the way down, you have to distinguish between good and bad, don't regret it." ”

These words seem to be serious, and they seem to be thinking about her, but in fact, they are so selfish that they can't be overwhelmed, and they are completely self-oriented.

"Sister Long, your second sister is right this time, you don't have a hard temper and have an unpleasant relationship with Ye Gongzi, I am not old and dizzy, and I can see that he values you." Mrs. Zheng persuaded again, "What do we women want to do in our lives?" Isn't it just a husband who values himself? You still have miles to live ...... good days ahead."

Lin Long was actually quite disgusted with their remarks, but she still chose to believe Ye Xuyao's words, so she didn't argue with them on this issue, it was not interesting to blush and have a thick neck, "I don't understand this truth, I keep the care of my stepmother and Second Sister Zheng in my heart." sighed, "I won't tell you, I'm really worried about Ah Fei's future, but I still know that I have a few pounds and a few taels, and all I can do is to send them some food and let them live better. ”

The side ensured that she would not run around for the Bei family's case and dismantle the platform of Governor Zheng and Ye Xuyao.

When Mrs. Zheng heard this, she was satisfied, she couldn't let Lin Long not even go to visit, right? That's too unkind, "If you understand, I'll rest assured, I was really worried about me yesterday, but I know that you've always been smart, and you won't let us down." After a pause, he took a sip of tea, and said, "Now this salt patrol makes Su Youwu don't know which corner to hide?" You have to be careful when you go in and out, the Bei family was retaliated against by him before, this person really stabbed a catastrophe and is still there to die. The dissatisfaction in his words grew.

Lin Long was slightly stunned, Su Youwu was the key person in this case, and it was really worrying that he didn't find it for a day, "Does the father-in-law have divergent people to find?" ”

"Why not? It's just that he hid when he saw the incident, but he didn't know how to find his person for a while? It's really worrying. Mrs. Zheng's brows furrowed.

Lin Long was also worried, this Su Youwu was making such a big deal in Suzhou City, if he didn't catch it, it wouldn't be enough to make the people angry.

Lin Long in this side of the box was indignantly cursing Su Youwu, but Gao Zhi in the other side of the box returned to the mansion with a depressed face, and Mama Gui came out, seeing that her master's face was red and swollen, and exclaimed: "Master, what's wrong?" ”

Gao Zhi said expressionlessly: "It's nothing, don't worry." After speaking, lying on his back on the Luohan bed, thinking of the scene of Lin Long hiding in Ye Xuyao's arms, he slammed the bed board, "Damn!" ”

Mama Gui, who was coming in with a medicine box and was about to give Gao Zhi medicine, was heartbroken, and when she saw Gao Zhi's unwillingness, she stepped forward to open the medicine box and instructed the maid to bring a basin of water. "Don't be angry, it's not worth ......"

"It's nothing, it's not a big injury, no need to wipe it." Gao Zhi refused.

"How can you not wipe it? In case it breaks in the future, it will be bad if there is no girl to marry. Mama Gui leaned on the old floor and said, she has watched Gao Zhi grow up since she was a child, and she has always had face in front of this master.

"If you don't marry, you won't marry, and I'm not rare." Gao Zhi said angrily, anyway, the one he was interested in was going to marry someone else, and other vulgar fans couldn't get into his eyes.

"Isn't this talking angry?" Mama Gui felt that she didn't like this, thought about it for a while, and felt that the root of this matter was still on Lin Long's body, and eighty percent of this injury was also related to her. "Why bother yourself, isn't Miss Lin just a stinking little girl? What's good, with the master's family background and appearance, what kind of girl are you looking for? According to what the old slave sees, even if he marries a county lord, it is just a word between the emperor and his mother? ”

Gao Zhi felt extremely embarrassed, and people would rather choose a piece of wood than him, "Mama, can you not mention her?" He turned his back to the chattering old woman.

"Okay, okay, the old slave doesn't mention her, what do you do with her broom star?" Mama Gui hurriedly followed Gao Zhi's words.

Hearing Mama Gui say that Lin Long was a broom star, Gao Zhi was not satisfied, and turned back again, looking at the old slave with a straight face, "She's not a broom star, don't talk about her like that." ”

Mama Gui pursed her lips, but she was also smart not to say a word, after washing Gao Zhi's face, she rubbed the ointment on him, it seems that she also has to send a letter to Jingli, so that the master mother can book a family affair for her master and marry a wife, and this heart can be recovered.

Gao Zhi let Mama Gui take the medicine, but his eyes were staring at the ceiling, this step was wrong, if he had started earlier, Lin Long would have been his, and at this time, there would be nothing wrong with Ye Xuyao.

was in a trance, and a small servant outside hurriedly came in, "Master, there is a letter from the capital." ”

Gao Zhiteng sat up with a sigh and said in a deep voice, "Take it." ”

The little guy handed it over, he took it, as soon as he saw the handwriting on the envelope, his expression became stern, he opened the letter and hurriedly read it, and suddenly his face was solemn, and he got out of bed and paced around the room with his shoes on, back and forth several times, and then raked his hair and raised his voice to order people to prepare horses.

"Master, aren't you dining in the house?" Mama Gui asked.

"Nope."

Gao Zhi said as he changed into inconspicuous clothes.

Suzhou Governor Yamen, Lin Long went to visit Bei Mingfei in prison, and saw that her complexion was better than yesterday, so he made up his mind and secretly told her not to worry, Ye Xuyao promised that they would be fine.

The mother and daughter of the Bei family are very grateful.

This time, she didn't stay until dark, and in the evening, she pushed Mrs. Zheng's invitation to stay for her to eat, and got into the carriage early to go back to the Ye family's courtyard, but this time there was no Ye Xuyao in the same car, it seemed that he and Zheng Huahan and others were not there, so she could only go home alone.

She didn't see Ye Xuyao that night, and fell asleep with a lot of thoughts.

The next day, when she went to visit Bei Mingfei again, she heard on the road that Su Youwu's body was lying in the river of Suzhou.
