Chapter 434: Take it personally
Lin Yuan cried for a while before stopping, she seemed to sprinkle all her worries tonight on Zhao Yun's body, she was angry that Zhao Yun acted rashly without her consent, and on the other hand, she was angry that she was useless, and she didn't succeed in getting the talisman for so long.
After the two of them kept warm for a while, they heard footsteps not far away, and the two of them immediately fell silent, listening to the footsteps that were getting closer and closer.
"My lord, we have searched the entire palace, and we still have found no trace of the assassin."
"Presumably that assassin must have taken advantage of the chaos to escape from the palace, it's almost dawn, everyone should go back first."
Listening to the footsteps of the guards walking away, Zhao Yun and Lin Kite breathed a sigh of relief, Zhao Yun carefully walked out of the hidden place, and only after confirming that there was no one around, did he pull Lin Kite out.
"Kite, it's almost dawn, I'll go back first." Zhao Yun looked at Lin Yuan reluctantly.
Lin Yuan nodded, and now that she has done so, she can't say anything more: "It's okay, while the guards are a little lax now, you can leave the palace quickly!" ”
After Zhao Yun printed a kiss on Lin Yuan's forehead, he looked at her affectionately: "Iris, take care of yourself here, and wait for me to come back to save you." ”
After speaking, Zhao Yun left the palace in three steps, and after Lin Yuan stayed in the imperial garden for a while, she turned around and walked towards her palace, it seems that she can't leave this palace tonight.
It's just that what Lin Yuan didn't expect was that when he returned to the palace, he found that an uninvited guest had come to his palace.
Looking at the new emperor who was sitting in her palace without saying a word, Lin Yuan was very surprised, she raised her eyebrows and walked in slowly.
Seeing Lin Kite walking in, the new emperor, who was sitting on the soft couch sulking, lit up and immediately greeted him: "Kite, where did you go?" Do you know that I'm worried about you? ”
Lin Yuan quietly withdrew his hand from the new emperor's hand, walked impatiently to the table and sat down, and poured himself a glass of water: "I just don't want to go out for a walk." ”
The new emperor obviously didn't believe such a statement, so he quickly walked to Lin Yuan's side and stared at her motionlessly, trying to find a trace of panic on her face, but it disappointed him.
"Don't want to go out for a walk? I remember that you seemed to be still under lockdown, and you ran out like this, what was the purpose? ”
At this time, the new emperor had already been upset by the assassin in the palace who had not been caught, for fear that it would be someone sent by Zhao Yun to save Lin Yuan.
"What the emperor said is really interesting, high school has become a mess, isn't it allowed for me to protect myself? Could it be that the emperor just wants to watch the assassins kill me before he is satisfied? ”
It's all like this, the new emperor is still thinking that he is grounded, and Lin Yuan naturally won't give him a good look.
When the new emperor heard Lin Kite say this, his expression tightened, and he hurriedly walked in front of Lin Kite and looked her up and down, "Kite Er, are you hurt?" Could it be that you've already met the Assassin? ”
Lin Yuan couldn't help but roll her eyes, when did she say that she had seen that assassin? What kind of trumped-up charges are all planted on her?
"Okay, I'm tired after a night's trouble, so please go back and rest early." After speaking, Lin Yuan stood up and didn't look at the new emperor anymore.
Who knew that the new emperor actually grabbed her reluctantly: "Kite, you can't tell me the truth, what are you going to do tonight?" ”
"What else can I do, I'm just in a bad mood and want to go out for a walk. Those guards left me alone, and the emperor did not question them, but came to question me. ”
Lin Kite was disturbed by the new emperor, and very unceremoniously got rid of the new emperor's hand holding her, and went straight to the side of the bed and lay down.
Seeing her like this, the new emperor had no choice but to believe what Lin Yuan said with suspicion, and seeing Lin Yuan's tired appearance, he didn't say anything more, but quietly led people out of Lin Yuan's palace.
On the way back, the more the new emperor thought about it, the more wrong it became, what happened tonight was too strange, and where did the assassin who sneaked into the palace go, and the abnormality of Lin Kite tonight, all these were extraordinary things for him, and he couldn't be careless at all.
So he called the eunuch who followed beside him: "Tell the guards in Miss Lin's palace to be ineffective, and each of them will be fined twenty boards to set an example, and send someone to watch every move of this Lin Kite, and report any abnormal behavior to me immediately." ”
"Minions understand."
The next day, when the princess heard that an assassin had infiltrated the palace last night, she suddenly thought of something, so she couldn't wait to run to Lin Kite's palace to ask for clarification.
When she walked to Lin Yuan's palace and saw that Lin Yuan was having breakfast, everything was so calm, but since the moment she saw Zhao Yun in the palace, she felt that the apparent peace was all an illusion.
"Princess, why didn't you come in there?" Lin Kite, who was having breakfast, immediately found the princess standing at the door, and she looked at the princess in confusion.
The princess immediately came back to her senses when she heard Lin Kite's voice, and she slowly paced to Lin Kite's side and sat down: "It just so happens that I haven't eaten yet, if my sister doesn't mind, I'll sit down and eat together." ”
Lin Kite felt very strange about the princess's abnormal behavior today, the princess had never had breakfast with her before, why did she come here today?
But she hid all these doubts, and everything was until after dinner.
Looking at the table full of light meals, the princess had no appetite, and besides, she was so preoccupied that everything she ate was like chewing wax.
After finally having breakfast, after the princess asked the people who were waiting in Lin Yuan's palace to retreat, she slowly spoke: "Sister Lin Yuan, I really came here today to find you." ”
Xu is Lin Yuan had already seen what she was thinking, but now when she heard her tell her purpose for coming here, she seemed very calm.
"If there's anything, just say it."
"Presumably my sister has heard about the assassins infiltrating the palace last night, I just want to ask if this matter is related to Zhao Yun?" The princess did not reserve at all, but asked all the questions in her heart.
Lin Yuan naturally wouldn't confess to Zhao Yun easily, she just shook her head: "I really don't know about this matter, last night when I heard that the assassins had infiltrated the palace, I found that the guards in the courtyard had disappeared, and I was afraid that the assassins would come here to threaten my life, so I ran out." ”
The princess naturally listened to it, last night the new emperor punished the guards in Lin Kite's courtyard, but she didn't believe in the current Lin Kite, after all, between the new emperor and Zhao Yun, Lin Kite chose Zhao Yun.
"Sister Lin Yuan, whether you know this matter or not, I beg you here, please don't hurt my brother, okay? He just loved the wrong person and got something he didn't deserve. ”
In the end, there was already a slight tremor in the princess's tone, and there was a more pleading tone.
Lin Yuan couldn't bear to see the princess like this, but she was helpless about this matter: "Princess, I'm sorry, my body is a little uncomfortable, you better go back early." ”
"Sister Lin Kite......." The princess still had something to say, but Lin Kite was already lying on the soft couch and closed her eyes.
At this point, the princess had no choice but to leave Lin Kite's palace with the palace maid.
Hearing the sound of the door closing, Lin Yuan slowly opened her eyes, she didn't answer the princess's words in person just now, and she couldn't bear to hurt her, she just found an excuse to let the princess leave.
After the princess left, Lin Yuan sat on the soft couch and pondered, last night Zhao Yun had told her all the news he had discovered, Zhao Yun didn't find the talisman, it seemed that it was time for her to take action personally.
She thought about it and felt that if she wanted to find it, it would be better to use some tricks, so she took the palace maid to the imperial dining room to make some pastries for the new emperor to send over, so that she would have a chance to search for the location of the talisman.
Thinking like this, her pace sped up a little, and when she just walked to the door of the imperial dining room, she bumped into a palace maid.
"Oops." The palace maid screamed in pain, and began to scold, "What kind of thing that doesn't have long eyes hit this girl, and is she in a hurry to reincarnate?" ”
Lin Yuan didn't speak, but the maidservants around her were unwilling: "Which palace are you from?" Bumped into Miss Lin and is still talking nonsense here? Be careful I tell the emperor to cut off your head. ”
When the palace maid saw who the person who hit her was, she quickly knelt down: "Miss Lin, forgive me, the slave didn't see you, I hope Miss Lin will spare a lot of slaves and maids this time." ”
Lin Yuan didn't take her to heart, but waved her hand impatiently to let her leave: "Okay, I don't have anything to do, you can step back first, I still have something to do." ”
The palace maid hurriedly stood up and stood respectfully to the side, and when Lin Yuan saw this, she raised her feet and walked towards the imperial dining room.
As everyone knows, the palace maid has already remembered her every move in her heart.
At this moment, Concubine Jiang was in the palace, Concubine Jiang was taking a nap on the soft couch, a palace maid walked in quickly, and she didn't know what to say in her ear, Concubine Jiang's eyes opened instantly.
"What do you say? Where's that slut? ”
"Back to Niangniang's words, the slave maid watched Lin Kite walk into the imperial dining room."
It turned out that it was no one else who collided with Lin Kite in the imperial dining room, but the maidservant girl in Concubine Jiang's palace, and now she was standing beside Concubine Jiang to report everything that had just happened.
"What does that slut do when he goes to the Imperial Dining Room?" Concubine Jiang sat on the soft couch and couldn't figure out Lin Kite's purpose for doing this.
"The slave doesn't know, but when I saw Lin Kite's posture, I should have gone to the imperial dining room to do something."
Doing something? Who does Lin Kite cook for to eat? According to her observation of Lin Kite's every move these days, she found that although Lin Kite was grounded, everything in Lin Kite's Gong was no less than in any palace.
Since there is a lot of everything, what else does she go to the imperial dining room for? The more Concubine Jiang thought about it, the more she couldn't figure it out, so she planned to go to the imperial dining room to find out the situation in person.
