Chu Haoze is Gu Mengyao's enemy.

It was he who killed Gu Mengyao.

And who Gu Mengyao is, Li Yan knows.

No matter how incredible the original resurrection sounded, Li Yan had already accepted it. Therefore, since he is Gu Mengyao's enemy, it means that he is the one who caused Gu Mengyao to become Lin Ruo.

No wonder, even though he had no intersection before, Lin Ruo was so resentful of him; But he was so hateful, but he would still come to the rescue and save his life.

Kindness is one of the reasons, but more importantly, it is probably that Lin Ruo once had deep feelings for this person, so no matter how resentful he is, there is still no way to watch Song Huan Chu, who looks similar to him, die in front of him......

"Realize that the past is not admonished, and those who know the future can be traced. You are a smart man and know this. The past is in the past, even if it is easier said than done, we should try to let go. The prince is a person worthy of trust. ”

Lin Ruo nodded: "I know, it's just that I'm too obsessed, knowing that they are not the same person, but every time I see him, I unconsciously become angry." Probably a little narrow-minded......"

Li Yan smiled: "This is true, when I was a child, I didn't play tricks on Luo Er and Boyu." That is, Uncle Lin didn't know it, and thought that you were quiet and intelligent, and you were worthy of a big responsibility. ”

"You've been playing tricks on them before!"

Lin Ruo pursed his mouth dissatisfiedly, remembering the scene of everyone playing together in the old days, he didn't feel a little abrupt.

At that time, Sister Xi was still there......

"Brother Huaijin, do you think that Concubine Shao has any holiday with the Lin family?"

Li Yan wrinkled his eyebrows and thought deeply, and shook his head: "I don't know." I have been taken by my father since I was a child, and I have been doing business with Uncle Lin, and I never seem to have the impression of being at odds with others. Unless ......"

"Unless what?"

"Unless it's a feud."

"Feud?" Lin Ruo frowned his little face, thought about it, and shook his head, "I have never heard my uncle mention that there is any feud in the Lin family...... I vaguely remember that I found it in the ancestral hall, and my great-grandfather was already a wealthy merchant in Jinling at that time. It's been too long, and I can't remember it clearly, it seems that it was my grandfather's generation, and my grandfather was expelled from the Lin family because he eloped with his loved one because he ignored his parents' orders and matchmakers' words, and then slowly lost contact. Until my mother was named the lord of the county because of her meritorious service in saving the driver, and the emperor gave my uncle the status of an imperial businessman...... If you really have a grudge...... Could it be the family members of the rebels back then? ”

Li Yan shook his head, and he didn't agree with Lin Ruo's inference: "According to what you said, the Lin family used to be rich merchants, so why is there no trace of a merchant surnamed Lin in Jinling City now?" Second, Uncle Lin is an imperial businessman, over the years, the Lin family's business has become bigger and bigger, how many people in Donglu don't know the Lin family? Although it was your grandfather who eloped with your grandmother back then, it has been three generations, and you can still find some traces of the Lao Lin family, right? ”

was mentioned by Li Yan, and Lin Ruo immediately realized that something was wrong: "You're right!" Over the years, no relatives of the Lin family have come to the Lin Mansion, and my uncle has not sent anyone to look for the long-lost clansmen! I didn't even hear my uncle talk about it! In terms of my uncle's person, it is indeed strange. ”

People say: Fallen leaves return to the roots, and the soul is tied to the homeland.

In ancient times, the family was like a big tree that sheltered the whole clan, no matter how far away the distant relatives were, they would always find a way to find the clan, get together, and prosper.

Although Lin Ruo has lived in Donglu for so many years, her concept is still stuck in her previous life, and her concept of "family" is not so deep-rooted, so she has never noticed anything different in this matter for so many years, until Li Yan woke her up.

Take 10,000 steps back, even if it is because of her grandfather's matter, Lin Qian still blames the Lin family, the Lin family has no news over the years, it should be in decline, no matter how strict the family education is, there will be one or two unscrupulous descendants, and they will come to defect with the sky-high wealth accumulated by Lin Qian.

However, there was not a single one.

"Is my uncle not knowing, or is he deliberately hiding it?"

Lin Ruo frowned and thought about it, the former was unlikely—after all, Lin Qian had not taken the initiative to find the Lin clan.

"It seems that this Concubine Shao may really be the feud of the Lin family!"

Looking at Lin Ruo's expression, Li Yan guessed probably: "Do you want to take the opportunity of escorting Song Huan Chu back to Xishu to go to Jincheng to investigate Concubine Shao and Tangmen?" ”

Lin Ruo nodded: "In addition, I'm afraid that after returning to Bian'an, I will also ask my uncle about the past of the Lin family." ”

Li Yan was silent for a long time, and then said, "Have you ever thought that if Uncle Lin doesn't tell you and Xiao Qi, he actually doesn't want you to get involved?" You are so rash in trying to set aside the past, and the consequences are ......"

"But this matter involves Sister Xi's death, and even, there are other things!"

"Repair a letter to Uncle Lin first, ask him what he means, and then make a decision. Besides, if Feng Xianling wants to solve the mountain bandit rebellion in Pingyu, he will definitely borrow someone from you. It will take time to exterminate the mountain bandits, and if you send someone to escort Song Huan Chu back to Xishu, there may be insufficient manpower around you to protect you. Taking advantage of this gap, I should have time to receive Uncle Lin's reply. ”

Lin Ruo thought for a long time and sighed: "I'm afraid that my uncle doesn't want me to know the hidden ......."

"Then don't be obsessed."

"What?"

Lin Ruo looked at Li Yan in disbelief, unable to believe that he would persuade her to give up investigating the cause of Gu Manxi's death.

"Ah Ruo, with Ah Xi's temperament, do you think she will want you to do this?"

Lin Ruo was silent.

She knew that Sister Xi would definitely not agree.

Even if Gu Manxi knew that the person who woke up after being fished out of the Taiye Pool was no longer her own sister, she would not allow her to do so.

"But...... Sister Xi, she's no longer there......"

Lin Ruo choked up and argued, and his eyes turned red unconsciously.

Li Yan said in a rare earnest voice: "Even if she is gone, she may not know nothing." ”

Lin Ruo raised his head suddenly, his eyes widened, and he looked at Li Yan without moving for a moment.

"Zi Bu is silent, but for you, it's not impossible, isn't it?"

Lin Ruo was silent again.

Yes, isn't she the best proof of the strange power and chaos? In Gu Manxue's body, Gu Mengyao's soul lives.

Perhaps, Gu Manxi met the real Gu Manxue; Or, Gu Manxi is also like her, living in another way. Who but God, who knows?

But she just can't let it go......

Li Yan shook his head helplessly, Lin Ruo grew up watching her since he was a child, he knew her too well. This girl is good at everything, but she is too stubborn, and she can't pull back ten cows when she decides.

"If you're determined to find out about Ashi's death, someone might be able to help you."

"Who is it?"

Li Yan didn't speak, but stretched out his index finger and pointed to the sky, and then, in the direction of Bian'an City, he arched his hand far away.

When the emperor of heaven, Emperor Mingzong.
