Chapter 677: Visiting My Brother
The sedan chair stopped outside the gate of the government.
Since the last fire, Jing Zhaoyin, who disappeared inexplicably, has also changed, and the current one, born in a noble family, is also a clear distinction between public and private, and is not afraid of the powerful.
This is also the emperor's deliberate arrangement, if it weren't for my brother being locked up here, I'm afraid that those people in the Shangguan family would have rushed up to the top and would secretly frame my brother.
"Princess, please come with me."
Outside the mansion, Lin Kui was already on standby here.
The prince has instructions to protect the safety of the princess everywhere. Although they didn't know why the emperor would issue an edict to demote Lin Mengya from a princess to a side concubine, looking at the appearance of the prince, they were afraid that this holy decree was just a dead letter for their husband and wife.
"I'm tired."
Seeing Lin Kui, Lin Mengya was slightly relieved.
Long Tianyu has a wide range of contacts, and with the emperor's intentional cultivation, it is difficult to protect that this Jing Zhaoyin, who has clear grievances, does not buy his face.
Besides, this is not for him to bend the law for personal gain, if he can sell Prince Yu a favor, why wouldn't he do it?
Lin Mengya nodded and walked towards the prison behind the mansion.
In fact, in Lin Mengya's heart, there is still a question that has not been solved.
Supposedly, the elder brother's crime was attempted homicide, which was not serious. What's more serious is that in his study, some evidence of collaborating with the enemy and treason was found.
If the former is not guilty of death, then the latter is a great sin of exterminating the nine clans.
I don't know if the emperor did it on purpose, and he didn't put his brother in the prison of the military department. She didn't know if this meant that the emperor just wanted to make a fuss about the attempted murder.
Moreover, my brother has fought on the battlefield for so many years and killed countless enemies. If it is ordinary perjury, let alone the emperor, even if it is the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty, I am afraid that no one can believe it.
In the end, what means did the Shangguan family use to make their brother and sister so unable to move?
With these many questions, Lin Mengya took Qinghu and followed Lin Kui to the door of the prison behind the mansion.
Although Jing Zhaoyin's prison is not as cold as a prison, it is also a strict rule.
Even if Lin Kui led the way, if there was no letter from Jing Zhaoyin, the cell boss would not let him go.
Lin Mengya didn't send any gold or silver to the cell boss, but just ordered the kitchen to make some wine and food.
First, it can be regarded as a heart, and secondly, this wine and food is not a bribe, and it will probably not make it difficult for the cell bosses.
Seeing that Lin Mengya was so sensible, the cell leader's face was a little more kind to her.
"Madame is polite, General Lin is inside, Madame, go and come back quickly, my family is already open."
Lin Mengya nodded, didn't hesitate, and walked towards the prison with Qinghu.
It's not as infiltrating as it is on TV, and although it's a little shabby, it's still a clean window.
In the rows of prisons, there are very clean straw beds for the time being.
It seems that the burning down of the previous stone prison is not a bad thing.
"Brother, are you okay?"
Soon, Lin Mengya saw the prison where her brother lived.
Compared with the previous ones, there is a prison with a bed and quilt, which should be in better condition.
Lin Nansheng watched his sister come in person, but he only smiled bitterly and did not stand up to greet him.
"Ya'er, why are you here? My brother's matter didn't implicate you, did it? ”
Lin Mengya shook her head vigorously, she hadn't seen her for a few days, brother, why did he become so decadent?
The handsome face collapsed, and those eyes were no longer shining with wisdom. Dusty, it makes people feel as if he has lost all self-confidence.
The white prison uniform he was wearing was also a little dirty, but he sat on the bed like this, and he no longer had the edge he had before.
"Brother, I'll get you out. I know that you will not do anything to collaborate with the enemy and treason, let alone want to kill that person. ”
Seeing his sister supporting him so unswervingly, after a long time, Lin Nansheng finally squeezed out a smile.
got up, walked in front of his sister, stretched out his big rough hand, and gently stroked his sister's delicate cheeks.
"Silly girl, what you should do is to protect yourself. Alas, it was all useless for me, and if I had known that it was today, I would not have been deceived by the traitors. Ya'er, you remember, don't trust anyone easily in the future, even if this person is like a brother to you. Perhaps, one day, he will stab you in the back. ”
Unexpectedly, as soon as her brother spoke, Lin Mengya smelled the hidden secret.
turned to hold his brother's hand tightly, and stared at his brother suspiciously.
"Brother, do you mean that the people around you also framed you? Who is it? What the hell is going on? ”
Lin Nansheng looked at his sister reluctantly, this matter is very important, he really doesn't want to let his sister worry about it anymore.
Besides, now that the evidence is conclusive, even if you want to overturn the case, I am afraid it will be very difficult.
"Well, Ya'er, you better go back. You can't help me with this. If you are also involved, it will not do the Lin family any benefit. Don't forget, although I am your brother, there are still many people in our Lin family. If this matter continues to make trouble, I am afraid that the entire Lin family will be uprooted. ”
At this time, my brother still has to take care of the overall situation.
Lin Mengya really felt angry, staring at her brother tightly, without flinching at all.
"Brother! You're so confused! Do you think that if you die quietly, you will be able to resist all the blame? The Lin family is no longer the Lin family favored by the emperor, and to tell you the truth, my position as a concubine has been taken away by the emperor. It's not you who implicated me, but the emperor, who has long been ready to sacrifice our family. ”
Sacrifice, I can't talk about it. Otherwise, the emperor would never let Lin Nansheng live in Jing Zhaoyin's prison on the charge of attempted murder.
If Lin Mengya told the truth, Lin Nansheng would definitely persuade her to take care of the emperor and not act rashly.
However, she knows one thing, her brother cares about her, and the opportunity can surpass her life.
The Lin family's other things can be laughed at and forbear, but protecting the short is more important than Jun'en.
Sure enough, when Lin Nansheng heard this, his eyes were like a pool of stagnant water, and suddenly a trace of anger swept over him.
"Why did the emperor do this? Even if I commit a crime, it has nothing to do with you. Such an implication is inevitably too unkind! ”
Seeing the effect, Lin Mengya immediately pretended to be aggrieved.
secretly pinched his thighs, and in an instant, a pair of red eyes came.
"Brother, if you have something, who can protect me. You don't know, Long Tianyu doesn't want me anymore, I heard that he is about to marry someone else as a concubine, and now, he has driven me back to our house. Daddy's position as a general will also be taken back by the emperor. In the future, who will protect me from being bullied? ”
Seeing his sister's red eyes, Lin Nansheng's heart was like a knife.
He thought that if he carried all the mistakes, at least, his sister would not suffer any grievances.
didn't expect that whether it was the emperor or Long Tianyu, he would dare to treat his Ya'er like this.
Dengshi, a pair of hands grabbed his sister's hand behind his back, and comforted her carefully.
"Don't cry, don't be afraid, my brother will be fine. Now, I don't have anything to remember. Ya'er, you remember, if you want to save me, go to Ziwei Hutong and find a person named Gou San. After seeing him, you will say that Mao Yi is treacherous, and he will naturally understand other things. As long as I find him, then my matter can be solved halfway. ”
Lin Mengya immediately wrote it down patiently, and she really couldn't blame her for playing some small tricks.
It's just that with her brother's temperament, if she doesn't say it seriously, if her brother is really determined to take the blame, then she doesn't want to finish.
nodded, saying that he would definitely find this Gou San and clear his brother's grievances.
Lin Nansheng looked at his sister, who was becoming more and more slender and thin, and only felt that his heart was about to be crushed.
"Ya'er, you must take good care of yourself. It doesn't matter if Long Tianyu doesn't want you, my brother will raise you for a lifetime, and I don't want you to be wronged by anyone anymore. ”
Lin Mengya looked at her brother with a worried face, this time, she didn't have to pinch herself, her nose was sour.
"Brother, you must be safe, I am waiting for you at home."
Since my brother returned to Beijing, almost every month, he would send her a lot of good things.
There is food that is useful, and there are many private things to consider. They usually don't see each other, but my brother is always worried about her body, for fear that she will suffer a little grievance, so every day after going down to the court, he will go around and pass in front of Prince Yu's mansion, in order to ask the porter if he is okay for a while.
My brother is like this, silently using everything he has to shield himself from the wind and rain.
Therefore, Lin Mengya will save her brother at any cost.
"Well, don't cry, I'm fine. You go back early and pay attention to your body. People from the Shangguan family, if you go to our mansion again, you must not be wronged. When your father returns, he will get justice for you. ”
Lin Nansheng looked at his sister, and there were thousands of worries in his heart, but after all, he could only turn into a sentence.
Nodding, Lin Mengya left the prison step by step under her brother's instructions.
Turning around, she took a deep look at her brother's figure, and Lin Mengya only felt a little bored in her heart.
Why, in this world, good people always have to be wronged, while bad people can get away with it and turn the clouds and rain?
The elder brother and father did not hesitate to throw their heads and spill their blood in order to protect their family and defend the country. But in the emperor's heart, it is just a means to check and balance power.
In her heart, the evil fire that had been suppressed for a long time gradually eroded the clarity in her heart.
Just when Lin Mengya was almost affected by this obsession, her white and delicate forehead was suddenly flicked hard by someone's fingers.
