Chapter 21: The assassination of the Hou Mansion
Mrs. Yu was slightly stunned, then she was furious, slammed the table, and said angrily: "Lin Moran, what are you talking about?" Do you know you're going to be against Mrs. Ben! β
Lin Moran smiled slightly, and asked rhetorically, "May I ask Madam, what is the identity of Moran in the mansion?" I am neither the daughter of the lady, nor the maid in the house, I am just a guest here, and the lady is kind-hearted and wants to teach me the rules and skills, I am very grateful. But in what other capacity did Madame order me, to demand me? β
Seeing Mrs. Yu's somewhat hideous expression, Lin Moran smiled and said, "Madam doesn't like me to approach the prince of the world, what are you worried about?" Are you afraid that I will hook the soul of the prince? That's why they took me with them, restrained me, and didn't allow me to go out easily, so that I wouldn't be allowed to meet other men, lest I be hooked by other men. What is Madame's purpose? Is it just because you don't want me to get close to Shiziye? Whatever it is, I'm going to disappoint Madame, Madame still don't expect too much from me, let alone be too kind to me, I can't afford any hope from Madame. β
Mrs. Yu did have a purpose, she thought she was hiding it well, but she didn't expect that Lin Moran would see through it.
Mrs. Yu was a little annoyed and angry, and suddenly spread her anger to Tao Liyan's body, and said angrily: "It's all you, an unfilial son!" Did you know something, so you told Lin Moran? How could she have known so much otherwise? Li Yan, you are my son! Why do you want to turn your elbows outward? I won't let you see her, you just take her out to run around, do you take me as a mother in your eyes! β
"Mother, you misunderstoodγγγ"
"Enough! Say no more! β
Tao Liyan was about to refute, but suddenly heard another voice sound, and naturally looked back, and then smiled: "Father, why are you here?" It's not early, why hasn't my father rested? β
Dingyuan Marquis Tao Huailing came over and said, "Li Yan, there is nothing for you to do here, you can go back to your room and rest first." Madame, it's not early, why are you still here? Go back and rest, there is a banquet in the Qingguo Mansion tomorrow, don't go late, let people gossip. β
"Master Hou, how do you γγγ" how do you talk to outsiders?
Before Mrs. Yu's words could be spoken, Tao Huailing said first: "Miss Lin is indeed not under your jurisdiction, she wants to go out to play, and she wants to befriend anyone, so she really doesn't need to explain to you." As for Li Yan, if he really likes Miss Lin, it is not impossible to include him in the room. It's just that I have to wronged Miss Lin, Li Yan's candidate for the princess will definitely be the daughter of a wealthy family, the love between men and women is not important, the interests are the most important, do you understand? β
"But Master Hou, Miss Lin, she γγγ" Mrs. Yu is going to say something.
Tao Huailing still interrupted her and said, "How is Miss Lin?" I, Tao Huailing, want to succeed, and I won't take advantage of a weak woman. Madam, in the future, you don't have to meddle in Miss Lin's affairs, Li Yan, find another doctor for Miss Lin tomorrow, see if you can only get rid of her amnesia, if you can find your family as soon as possible, you won't suffer this kind of grievance in my Hou Mansion. β
"Father, actually, γγγ"
"Needless to say, you go back first, this is Miss Lin's room, let's not disturb her rest."
After speaking, Tao Huailing forced Mrs. Yu to leave here with his eyes, Tao Liyan sighed and said, "Mo Ran, you should rest early, don't worry too much, my father will not embarrass you." I'll go first, and if something happens, someone will come to me, don't be afraid. β
Tao Liyan also left.
Before Tao Huailing left, he suddenly said to Lin Moran: "You live here well, no one will do anything to you, what do you want to know, or what you want to do, you can just do it." But there is one thing, I hope you don't hurt Li Yan, he is a simple-minded, pure and sexual, easy to put his heart into people, if he is betrayed, I am afraid that he will die of sadness and lose his life. β
Lin Moran didn't understand what he was talking about, so he didn't know how to answer, and Tao Huailing didn't mind, so he left without waiting for her to say anything.
Lin Moran looked at Tao Huailing's back, and suddenly had a feeling that Tao Huailing seemed to know something.
The next day, Mrs. Yu really didn't ask Lin Moran to learn anything in the past, let alone treat her harshly, eating and drinking was not rude, it seemed that she had been "educated" by Tao Huailing.
Tao Liyan entered the palace again, and Lin Moran had no other friends, so he could only entertain himself, and after eating and drinking enough, he wandered around the mansion. Tao Huailing's words worked very well, and sure enough, no one stopped her, only when she was close to a small door in the backyard, someone stopped her.
"Miss Lin, behind this is the ancestral hall of the Hou Mansion, Miss Lin is not suitable to enter, and I ask the girl to find another way." A little guy said respectfully.
Lin Moran didn't expect to come here, so he smiled embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to." Then I'll γγγ I'll go over there, okay? Where does that lead? β
"It's all where people live, girl, don't go over if it's okay." The little guy said.
Lin Moran's face was slightly red, what was wrong with him? Awkward to go back the way you came, but I didn't dare to stay here anymore.
Just as Lin Moran turned around and was about to leave, a person came out of nowhere, holding a dagger, and was about to stab Lin Moran in the back.
At this critical moment, the little guy who was talking to her just now suddenly shouted: "Girl, be careful! β
Then he threw Lin Moran to the ground, although he fell, but he also dodged the fatal knife. The assassin who came to assassinate Lin Moran saw that the blow missed, so he was ready to do it again, but the blow just now had already alarmed the people in the Hou Mansion, and three or five people had already rushed over to ask what was going on.
When they appeared, they found that someone had committed the murder, so they hurriedly shouted, "What man! Dare to commit murder in the Hou Mansion, don't you want to die! β
The assassin is also courageous, knowing that it is impossible for him to retreat with his whole body, so he simply does not do anything, if he loses his life and has not completed the task, it will be more than worth the loss, so he doesn't care if someone comes to stop him, while Lin Moran is still in front of him, the distance is so close, he will not start at this time, let alone when!
Seeing that the dagger was about to stab Lin Moran, and Lin Moran was already so frightened that she forgot to dodge at all, the distance was too close, and she couldn't dodge.
At this time, a stone suddenly came out of the air, and when the tip of the knife was only 0.01 cm away from Lin Moran, it knocked the dagger away in time and saved Lin Moran's life.
