Chapter Eighty-Nine: Dialogue
Ye Xuan nodded slightly, and followed Yuan Hongdao through the corridor of the Lin Mansion, and there were a few small servants standing next to the corridor who were cleaning. The more you go inside, the more elegant the scenery is, there are rockeries and flat grass, flower branches and pools. The servants of the Lin Mansion were also quite polite, and they didn't panic at all when they saw people coming, they just bowed silently, and then began to deal with the matter at hand, without any confusion.
To be honest, the Lin Mansion is not big, at least compared to the Ye Mansion and the Fan Mansion, it is really a small thing. Passing through the corridor, there is a room, the room is not big, and it can even be described as simple, and there are two welcome pines planted outside the house. The simple decoration gives people a feeling of returning to the basics, Yuan Hongdao pointed to this room and whispered: "Ye Gongzi, Xiangye is waiting for you inside, I won't go in!" ”
Ye Xuan naturally knew what Yuan Hongdao meant, but what he was more curious about now was what he, the future father-in-law, had prepared for him.
Kill him?! Lin Ruofu will not be so stupid, with his old scheming, he will never do it to himself, let alone pick him up at the gate of the palace in a grand manner, and then ambush and kill people at his own house.
Even if he is vengeful, such traces are too heavy!
What's more, the evidence is insufficient, just relying on the two names at the scene of the crime and the use of the sword master to determine that he and Fan Xian are murderers, in the end it is still far-fetched. So before everything settles, Lin Ruofu will definitely not be used as a gun!
Thinking of this, he smiled and arched his hand to Yuan Hongdao, and said with a smile: "It's been a long journey this way, thank you Mr. Yuan for your help!" ”
Yuan Hongdao didn't pay attention to Ye Xuan, returned the salute, and left on his own.
Looking at Yuan Hongdao's departing figure, Ye Xuan pushed open the door of the house, and the first thing that caught his eye was a row of old bookshelves, which were full of books, calligraphy and paintings, giving people a sense of disorganization.
Not far from him, there was an endgame, and the black and white were-for-tat, which made the original quiet and peaceful suddenly a little tense. Ye Xuan couldn't help but take a few steps forward, wanting to find Lin Ruofu's figure.
At this moment, a deep voice came!
"You are Ye Xuan?"
Ye Xuan looked up, and a middle-aged man walked over, with a solemn face, upright facial features, and a black robe giving people a solemn and serious feeling, he arched his hand and said, "Xiaguan Ye Xuan, meet Lin Xiang!" ”
Lin Ruofu looked at the dignified young man in front of him, and his heart ached. After a while, he said slowly: "You are younger than I thought." ”
Ye Xuan didn't say anything, he didn't know what Lin Ruofu's words meant. Facing his future father-in-law, he was naturally a little nervous in his heart.
"Wan'er, this child's life has been miserable since he was a child, and he suffered from tuberculosis within a few days of birth, and because of his identity, he has not been able to return home. Now Wan'er's illness is no longer serious, and I heard that you cured her with pills. Lin Ruofu picked up a piece of tissue paper from the case and looked at Ye Xuan, looking a little tired between his eyebrows.
"Exactly."
"On your way here, the palace sent someone to deliver the message. It is said that His Majesty has ordered the divorce, and your matter is estimated to spread throughout Qingguo tomorrow. ”
After Ye Xuan heard this, he suddenly felt a little surprised, shouldn't Lin Ruofu ask the real reason for Lin Xuan's death? Why did you suddenly talk to him about homely things?
Lin Ruofu also seemed to notice Ye Xuan's surprise, and slowly explained: "I already know the details of Lin Xuan's plan for the assassination on Niulan Street. I've invited you here because there's only one thing I want to ask. ”
"Do you really like Wan'er? Or is it for the right behind her? As soon as the words fell, Lin Ruofu looked coldly at the young man's eyes, as if he wanted to see a little panic from Ye Xuan's calm eyes.
Ye Xuan was a little stunned, feeling that Lin Xiang's current state didn't look like a fake, but shouldn't he ask about Lin Xuan's death? Why did he get involved with Wan'er again, did he already know that the real murderer was not successful?
"I really like Wan'er!" Ye Xuan replied categorically.
After Lin Ruofu heard this, his face was expressionless, and he sat down along the chess game, spread out the white paper in his hand, and said in a harmonious voice: "Okay, in that case, as long as your father comes to my Lin Mansion to propose marriage!" If you marry Wan'er, the wealth of the inner treasury and the power of my Lin Mansion will become the wings behind you. ”
"But I also have one condition, after a hundred years, protect my Lin Mansion thoroughly!"
After listening to Lin Ruofu's words, suddenly, Ye Xuan chuckled lightly and said loudly: "I refuse!" Since I like Wan'er, I will naturally take care of the Lin family, and all this has nothing to do with the power and power behind her. ”
Lin Ruofu glanced at Ye Xuan in some surprise, smiled slightly, and asked, "Is all this important?" What I want is for you to protect the Lin Mansion after a hundred years. It doesn't matter if you really like Wan'er or not! ”
Ye Xuan thought for a moment and said slowly: "This matter is absolutely not tradable, I don't want too many other things to be mixed in with my relationship with Wan'er." ”
Speaking of this, Ye Xuan hesitated for a moment, but still said: "I also have a question, please Lin Xiang answer it for me!" ”
"Say!"
"Why didn't Lin Xiang ask me if my second son was killed by me? Do you want to entrust the Lin family's property to someone who may kill the second son? ”
