Chapter 273: Intercession
Although it was already autumn, the inside of this prison was still dark and damp, Lin Long was carefully walked down the steps by the maid, this change came too suddenly, so that now she could only visit the senior girl first.
The senior girl was locked up with Xilian, and she looked at Xilian with a heavy face, "Why did you do this?" β
Xilian sat on the ground with her legs crossed, her expression of indescribable chagrin, and when she heard the question of the senior girl, she turned her head mechanically and looked coldly at the person she had deliberately flattered not long ago, "Why?" Are you too embarrassed to ask me why? β
She stood up excitedly, pointed at the senior girl and said, "Am I not treating you well?" Your brother and sister hid in Beijing with the surname Wei Chi, and I have been helping you until now, you know my intentions, but you still support your brother to send me away, senior high school, has your conscience been eaten by dogs? β
Since overhearing those words, she began to collect evidence that the brother and sister were the remnants of the Gao family, and with this evidence, she entered the official mansion.
The senior girl didn't expect her to be unrepentant, "Xilian, my brother doesn't like you, so he doesn't want to delay you, why do you still want to drill the horns?" The family that my brother found for you is also good, and marrying in with your background is already high, so what are you not satisfied with? Is that okay now? You are really stupid, even if you are the whistleblower, but you are also a harborer, and you didn't report it before, our brother and sister are finished, and you will be finished with it. β
"I don't care." Xilian roared forcefully.
The Gao brothers and sisters are also ruthless, after she denounced them, they bit her back that she was the one who did not report it, and as a result, the official also sent her to prison to listen to the Hou trial, she was tantamount to lifting a stone and hitting her own feet, saying that she did not regret it was a lie.
It's the first time she's grown up to be locked up in such a place, in fact, she is scared in her heart, but she doesn't want to lose face in front of the senior girl, so she supports it hard.
How can a senior girl in high school not see Xilian's fear? I can't have half sympathy for her, this person is kind to her Gao family, but there is also hatred, the two cancel each other, but even strangers are not as good. "Xilian, even if we cross the Nai He Bridge together, you must not go with our brothers and sisters, otherwise I will be eager to push you into the Lechuan River, so that you will never be reincarnated as a human being."
This is the first time that Xilian has heard the senior girl speak ill of her, in her cognition, the senior girl has always been a gentle person who speaks and acts, she disagrees with it in private, and thinks she is weak, but now it seems that she has misunderstood.
In the disgusting eyes of the senior girl, Xilian couldn't help but take a few steps back, touched the cold prison door, and then stopped.
The senior girl didn't want to look at her anymore, and tilted her head to the side, she didn't have a bad feeling for a country girl like Xilian, but now her eyes were full of disgust.
When Lin Long came over, he happened to meet the eyes of the senior girl.
"Senior girl."
"Mrs. Hou."
Both hurriedly took a few steps forward, holding each other's hands through the cage.
Lin Long looked at the senior girl eagerly, fortunately, except for the fact that her clothes were not very neat, the senior girl was not waiting for the big punishment, and she was quite energetic, so she put down her hanging heart.
The senior girl's eyes were full of tears, she had fallen into the dust, Lin Long could still treat her as always, this affection alone was enough for her to remember for a lifetime, and she and Lin Long were just nodding friends at the beginning.
"Mrs. Hou, it's not suitable for you to come here, but if you can come and see me, I'll be content......"
"Senior girl, don't be so pessimistic, maybe there will be a turnaround."
Lin Long comfortingly interrupted the senior girl's words, took the food box in the hand of the maid behind him, and opened it to let the senior girl have a full meal first.
The senior girl was not polite, she took it and ate it, even if she was used to living a hard life, she still didn't have Cheng DΓΉ who could swallow the rice in her stomach, the unpalatable rice in prison had surpassed her bottom line, so now in the face of this fragrant meal, her appetite was greatly boosted.
Lin Long hurriedly asked her to eat slowly, still remembering the first time he saw her when he was swimming in the lake. "Senior girl, I will arrange this food, you don't have to worry, as for whether you and Gao Zhi can get out of prison, I'm afraid it's hard to say......"
The crime committed by the Gao family at the beginning was not light, and it was not something that could be erased lightly at this moment.
The senior girl burped, put down the dishes and chopsticks, and looked at Lin Long with a wry smile, "Life and death are in the sky, and there is a brother as a companion, even if I die, I am not afraid." Mrs. Hou, don't get into trouble for me, or it will be the sin of the senior siblings......" Speaking of this, she couldn't help wiping away tears.
Lin Long also emotionally twitched the handkerchief and pressed the corner of his eye, and then wiped away the tears of the senior girl, "Don't give up yet, maybe there will be a turnaround." β
The senior girl showed a wry smile, turning around, how could it be so easy to appear.
Xilian on the side looked enviously at the leftovers in the food box, although she and the Gao brothers and sisters did not enjoy the great wealth and luxury, but the abundance of three meals was far better than the previous life in the village, from thrift to luxury, from luxury to thrift, let alone yesterday's rancid rice, even she couldn't swallow it.
It's just that the person who delivers the meal is Lin Long, who she hates the most, don't think she doesn't know, Gao Zhi is infatuated with this woman, so he will refuse her again and again. If there was enough time, she would not let Lin Long go, glaring at Lin Long hatefully.
Rumei felt Xilian's gaze, raised her head and glared back at the bold female prisoner, following Lin Long's side, how could she not know why this Gao family brother and sister went to prison? This person's heart is not enough to swallow elephants, because the story of love and hatred is really not uncommon, so she also looks down on Xilian.
Xilian was glared at by Rumei, and suddenly became angry, "What do you look at?" β
She wanted to go up and find the ballast.
Lin Long was originally talking to the senior girl, but when he heard this voice, he raised his head and looked at Xilian coldly, this woman is really hateful, just because Gao Zhi doesn't accept her, is she going to ruin people? This kind of love is terrible.
The senior girl also looked back at Xilian, who wanted to stir up trouble, her eyebrows sank, and she turned back to Lin Long for a while: "Mrs. Hou, don't pay attention to her, such a woman will stain her eyes after looking at her more." β
Lin Long will never lose his identity and face Xilian, such a person is indeed as the senior girl said, she will have dirty eyes when she looks at it more, patted the senior girl's hand, she looked at the jailer behind her, "Change the senior girl's room to a more comfortable cell." β
The jailer knew Lin Long's identity, and when he heard her order, he immediately took out the key to open the cell door, and let the senior girl come out and be detained in a clean and ventilated cell.
Xilian saw that the senior girl was taken out, and hurriedly rushed out to keep up, but was pushed back to the prison by the jailer, and then grabbed the two prison pillars, "Senior senior, don't leave if you have the ability, you come back to me, you son of a bitch......"
The senior girl frowned, this Xilian is really vulgar, fortunately, her eldest brother didn't take a fancy to her at the beginning, and now she would rather die than let her brother marry such a thing, there is no need for her Gao family's blood to be tainted by such blood.
Lin Long's eyebrows and eyes were a little colder, this Xilian was completely a shameless person, and she was still in the mood to scold the street after being like this.
After settling the senior girl, she said to the jailer who was bent down respectfully, "You can take good 'care' of the female prisoner named Xilian for me." β
The jailer immediately understood, thinking that the female prisoner was still screaming and scolding without knowing whether she was alive or dead, he was also disgusted, so he hurriedly responded, "Mrs. Hou, don't worry, the little one will be done." β
Lin Long led the maid out, standing in the sunlight outside, she saw the bandit stone hurriedly coming over with a food box, "Have you delivered the food?" There is a difference between men and women, and in order to avoid suspicion, she did not go to visit Gao Zhi in person, that is, Wei Chishi.
"Delivered." Bandit Shi said, "Master Gao said that there is no need to send him any more food, he understands the grandmother's intentions, this matter has nothing to do with the grandmother, and the grandmother should not be involved in it so as not to be implicated, and he has admitted whether he is alive or dead in this life." β
Lin Long listened to the words of the bandits, much the same as what the senior girl told her, and sighed, "I can ignore Gao Zhi, but I can't ignore the senior girl." β
She owes a favor to the senior girl, and she will still help if she should help.
Returning to the house with a little melancholy, the two twins guarded by Aunt Xin broke free from the shackles of the nurse and threw themselves at Lin Long as soon as they saw her open the curtain and come in.
The calves of these two babies became more and more powerful, and they soon reached Lin Long's legs.
"Mother."
The two little babies called her enthusiastically, she was extremely moved for a while, bent down and picked up the two of them, weighed the weight, and when they were older, she probably couldn't hold one with one hand.
He quickly sat down on the bed and kissed each of them on the cheeks.
The two little babies were kissed a lot, and immediately washed their kissing mother's face of saliva.
Lin Long wiped away the excess saliva with a handkerchief, he had just experienced the helplessness and pain of life, and then looked back at his little happiness, and suddenly felt extremely satisfied.
Raising her head, she asked the nurse what the twins had been doing all morning? The nurses didn't dare to hide it, and she reported them one by one, and she listened carefully, after all, it was about her precious sons, how could she not pay full attention?
Ye Xuyao deliberately chose to go back to the house at this time, and before he lifted the curtain to the inner room, he heard his wife's inquiry, and a warm current flowed in his heart.
Lin Long heard the footsteps and hurriedly turned his head, but when he saw her husband coming back, she hurriedly said, "Why did you come back at this hour?" β
"Nothing." Ye Xuyao stepped forward and reached out to touch the fine hair on the top of the heads of the two precious sons.
When the two little babies saw their father, they immediately called "Daddy, Daddy......", turned around and threw themselves into his arms again.
They only have two words, either mother or father, so far even grandfather and grandmother have not been able to call out, Ye Zhong's first time as a grandmother, so far I have not heard the baby grandson call a grandmother, disappointment is inevitable, but this can not be forced, it must be a matter of course.
After making love with the two sons for a while, Ye Xuyao handed over the two twins to the nurses to hug them, and then sent the eldest maid and Aunt Xin who were waiting in the house.
Lin Long didn't stop her husband's move, she just made him a bowl of fragrant tea, and then held the teacup in her own hands.
Ye Xuyao sat opposite her, took a sip of the tea made by his wife, "How are the brothers and sisters of the Gao family?" β
Lin Long came back to his senses, said what he knew, and finally concluded: "Their spirits are fine, and they seem to be mentally prepared, husband, watching the senior girl waiting for death makes me feel uncomfortable." She pressed her hand to her heart, and she couldn't bear to witness such a situation, "If you can, you can help them." β
Ye Xuyao frowned lightly, "Originally, the saints would not be held accountable, and they would leave with one eye closed, but now that the trouble is known to the civil and military forces of the whole dynasty, it is not something that can be solved with a single pleading, after all, the Gao family committed a serious crime." β
"I know." Lin Long's expression was not disappointed, after all, it was all expected, "I originally wanted to go into the palace to ask my stepmother for help, if she is willing to say good things, the saint will definitely open the net, but her belly is quite big now, I can't bear her running around for my affairs, and besides, the former noble concubine is the real culprit behind the scenes who harmed her child, I ...... I really can't open this mouth. β
Until now, Su Ziyu's heartbreak has not healed, and she can't be so selfish to rip off her wound and spread it out in the sun again, so that she can suffer again.
Ye Xuyao saw his wife's sad expression, took her hand, pulled her directly to his knees and sat down, and kissed her face comfortingly, "If you can't open your mouth, don't open it, I don't want to see you embarrassed." After a pause, "In addition to me, Prince Jing is also trying his best to rescue the Gao brothers and sisters. β
Lin Long was not surprised that Prince Jing would behave like this, the first person Gao Zhi took refuge in when he returned to Beijing should be Prince Jing, which shows that his friendship with Prince Jing is not ordinary.
"I hope their brother and sister will have better luck." She is full of hope.
In fact, except for Prince Jing, Huo Yuan is not idle, he and Gao Zhi are friends, how can he watch Gao Zhi die? Therefore, he is also contacting the real power figures, and plans to jointly write to Gao Zhi to intercede, and force his exploits in Ruyang City, which is the credit that Gao Zhi can get the most.
As for the matter of pretending to be Wei Chishi to be a guard next to the emperor, it can also be argued that it is a loyal act, in order to prevent the Nine Princes, a rebellious thief, from assassinating the emperor, in short, it still makes sense.
These groups of people all defended Gao Zhi, and before Zhu Yi's case, there were already a lot of twists and turns from all sides, and of course, there were also courtiers who advocated the disposal of the Gao brothers and sisters, and the two sides had their own opinions.
Zhu Yi just flipped over the fold slightly, threw it aside, and tapped his fingers between his eyebrows, which was really a headache.
Pushing the dragon chair away, he left the imperial study with his hands behind his back, sat in the sedan chair, and went straight to the queen's bedroom.
Su Ziyu frowned, and asked Mama Jin, "Are they still kneeling in front of the hall?" β
Mama Jin put the tonic in front of her master, glanced at the outdoors swept by the autumn wind, and could see Princess Yong'an and the Seventh Prince at a glance.
"They are obviously forcing Niangniang, if Niangniang doesn't want to see them, the old slave will drive them away."
Su Ziyu lightly raised her hand to signal Mama Jin's actions, and her brows furrowed a little tighter, "After all, they still have the blood of the Gao family in their bodies, they didn't know Shang Ke before, but now they know that they are uncles and aunts, how can they sit idly by?" If they're that hard-hearted, I'd be wary. β
It was because of their soft-heartedness that she was able to show them love again and again.
glanced at her son on Luohan's bed, her son had just turned one year old, she should plan carefully.
The little prince felt his mother's gaze looking at him, and immediately raised his head and grinned at his mother, this smile almost softened Su Ziyu's heart.
At this time, Hongling hurriedly came in, "Niangniang, the emperor is coming here." β
Su Ziyu squinted her eyes slightly, and she also had a plan in her heart, her hand gently stroked her round belly, and ordered, "Bring Princess Yongan and the Seventh Prince in." β
Hongling answered, and then hurriedly went out to summon people in.
Princess Yong'an kept her head down, in fact, her heart was not easy, and she felt very remorseful when she thought that she was not polite to the guard of Wei Chishi that day, this is her own uncle.
She no longer has feelings for her mother, but it is different for this uncle, who has always loved her, and every time she goes out, she doesn't forget to bring her good things, how can she watch him die?
"Sister, will the queen mother be soft-hearted?" The Seventh Prince asked uncertainly.
"Yes, the queen mother has always been the most merciful." Princess Yong'an said with a determined face.
The Seventh Prince turned his head and continued to kneel honestly.
Their sister and brother are quite dependent on Su Ziyu, but after all, they didn't crawl out of the belly of the master of the Middle Palace, and this family affection will be greatly reduced.
Not long after, they heard Hongling's voice, "Princess Yong'an, the Seventh Prince, the Queen Mother has called you to go in and see you." β
The sister and brother hurriedly raised their heads and looked at Hongling with surprise.
"Aunt Hongling, is it true?" Princess Yong'an looked happy and asked for confirmation.
This Hongling is a celebrity next to the lord of the Middle Palace, and she has always been very polite to her, especially the last time this maid saved the Ye family's children, she was even more appreciated by Su Ziyu.
Hongling nodded hurriedly.
Princess Yongan pulled her younger brother up and ran forward excitedly, but after walking for a while, she fell to the ground with a "plop".
Because of kneeling for a long time, this knee is numb, where can I run?
Hongling smiled and called the stout Gong'e to come over and pick up the two sisters and brothers into the inner hall, and Princess Yong'an, who was the eldest sister, was busy thanking her.
When Zhu Yi arrived at the queen's bedroom, the autumn wind blew more happily.
Dressed in a dragon robe, he stepped up the steps and entered the inner hall, and when he was about to lift the curtain to enter the warm pavilion, he heard his wife's voice, "You have to intercede for your uncle and aunt, but you also have to pay attention to your body, this scoundrel kneeling in front of the hall is only this once, not an example." β
He immediately furrowed his eyebrows - 6049172637620992663 + dliineda + 388 - >
