The cold wind was howling, accompanied by snowflakes dancing, walking alone on the street, Lin Mei felt for the first time that the cold winter season was so cold.

When people are cold, their hearts are even colder.

Although he had long been aware of King Qi's intentions, the Lin family had nothing to plan before, and now there was an extra jade pendant that was related to the treasure, and it was the same, although he didn't know the value of the treasure, but it was enough to tempt people to arouse greed......

In a daze, he unknowingly returned to the door of the Lin Mansion.

"Where have you been this night?"

There was a sudden sound, which pulled Lin Mei back to reality from her thoughts, and scared her little heart to beat violently.

"People are scary, scared to death, why are you here?" Lin Mei frowned slightly, trying not to let him see her expression.

Liu Dawu took off the big scarf on his body and draped it on her, "You haven't told me yet, where did you go this night?" ”

Lin Mei raised her eyebrows, how could this tone be as if she was interrogating her own woman, "I can't sleep, go out for a walk." What about you? The dignified general ran to the door of the house in the middle of the night to squat, what do you want to do? After saying that, I realized that I was stupid, why did I tell him so much.

The people Liu Dawu only saw seemed to be a fog, hiding a lot of secrets, which made people unable to guess, "I got the news, the traitor is hiding in Luoyang now, but you, a girl, are not good at home in the middle of the night, running around, what if you meet bad people again?!" ”

When Lin Mei heard this, she wished that he would wipe out the rebels as soon as possible, and hurriedly said: "Then you better go and get busy, business is important." I'm a little sleepy now and I'm going back to sleep. ”

After speaking, without waiting for him to reply, he knocked on the door, took off his big shackle and gave it back to him.

Sixi stayed for a night, and finally saw the master come back, and opened the door excitedly, just in time to see this scene. Frightened: Could it be that the master went to a private meeting with a man at night?

Carrying the lantern, I was about to take a closer look, but I didn't think about it, and was grabbed by Lin Mei from the house.

"Hurry up and close the door, I'm so sleepy, I'm going back to rest." After Lin Mei finished speaking, she only left him a closed door.

"Miss, who is he?" Sixi asked nervously.

"No one is allowed to tell you about today's events, if you let people know half a word, you don't have to continue to stay in the Lin family." Although she knew that she was not a talkative person, Lin Mei still couldn't help it and sounded the alarm bell.

"No~!" Such a top-secret event, naturally, can't be told to outsiders, otherwise his master's reputation will be damaged, and he will not end well.

"By the way, how come you are the only one who comes back, Qi Niang, didn't she go out with you?" After a long time, Sixi found out that there was one person missing.

Lin Mei didn't want her to know too much, so she prevaricated: "I sent her to the restaurant, it's an eventful time now, and the restaurant doesn't have anyone to look at at it, so I'm not at ease." ”

Sixi showed a complicated look in his eyes, that is, envy and pity, he didn't expect that Qi Niang not only had good martial arts, but also had to be reused by the master, but it was too hard, and he couldn't sleep at night, and he had to go to the restaurant for the night.

……

Qi Niang and Lin Mei broke up unhappily, but they felt that they were not wrong, they were in a dilemma of loyalty and righteousness since ancient times, and if there was really one day King Qi gained power, it would not be a bad thing for Lin Mei and the entire Lin family, on the contrary, as long as the Lin family took refuge in King Qi, it would be as good as the sun and soaring.

Just thinking about it, the shadow suddenly came to report: "Ye Qi Niang, you want someone to arrive, do you think it will be tried now, or will it be tried again when Miss Lin comes?" ”

"So fast?" Qi Niang thought that she would have to wait for half a day, but she didn't expect that as soon as the sky dawned, people arrived.

The shadow smiled, "Miss Lin treats us well on weekdays, and the brothers will definitely do their best to find the person she is looking for." ”

"Okay, stop playing tricks, go back and get the reward, take the person to the secret room, and I will interrogate it myself." Qi Niang is a jealous and hateful person, she accidentally fell into the way of the mother-in-law, and now that she is in her own hands, she must first relieve her hatred.

The woman was blindfolded, frightened all the way, and I don't know which god she offended, so she was directly tied up.

Qi Niang took off her blindfold, pinched her chin, and asked, "Remember me, say!" Who told you to do it? ”

As if she had seen a ghost, the woman exclaimed, "You...... Haven't you been eaten by wolves? ”

"It's a pity, you miscalculated, there were no wolves at all that night, say! Who told you to do it? If you confess obediently, I will spare you death. ”

The twilight man was frightened for several days, and then he didn't have a good rest for these days, and was so frightened by her, the woman suddenly kowtowed and begged for mercy, and her brain shook out.

"What's the matter, it was your eldest young master who instructed you to do it, the Cai family is far away in Jiangnan, and they have never crossed paths with us, why did he do this?" Qi Niang asked puzzled.

The woman knelt on the ground and swore a curse, "What I said is true, I am a subordinate, then I will know why he is doing this, please be kind, let me go, I really don't know anything." ”

"Then let me ask you again, the Cai family is far away in Jiangnan, what is he doing in Chang'an? And where do you live? ”

"I know this, the eldest young master came to Chang'an this time to discuss business with the palace."

"The Cai family is an imperial businessman?" Qi Niang frowned.

"It's not, but the Cai family and the Sun family are in-laws, and this time the Sun family helped pull the line." The mother-in-law hurriedly explained.

Qi Niang felt that the answer was self-evident, and confirmed again: "Sun family, which Sun family?" ”

The mother-in-law smiled: "Which other Sun family can there be, it is naturally the mother family of the lady concubine." ”

Qi Niang was shocked, could it be that this matter was instructed by Concubine Shu? The more I thought about it, the more I felt that only Concubine Shuniang had such a motive.

"The good student will look at the person, and I will try it again when I turn around." told the shadow and hurried to the Lin family.

Lin Mei took a nap for a while, feeling much better, at this time she was dining with Daddy Lin, and when she saw Qi Niang coming back, she knew that she had something to do, and said with a smile: "Daddy looks much better, can you go to the shop today?" ”

Seeing that his eldest daughter came back unscathed, as if he was resurrected with full blood, he smiled and said: "I've been bored at home for so long, it's okay to go out and walk around, I was still sitting in the restaurant for you a few days ago, and I know a lot of people, if you want to go to the restaurant in a while, let's go together." ”

This is really wanting to go the same way, is he not worried about going out alone, Lin Mei was grateful, couldn't bear to refuse, and promised: "It's naturally good to have Daddy with you, I'm going to talk about business in a while, Daddy will go with me, maybe, with Daddy, this deal will go very smoothly." ”

This made Father Lin laugh, and hurriedly put down the dishes and chopsticks, "Then I have to change my clothes, I can't let people look down on me." ”

After saying that, I really went back to the main courtyard to change clothes.

Lin Mei gave Qi Niang a look and went back to the backyard directly.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

Qi Niang attached it to her ears and explained the news she had just come to explain it clearly.

"Really?" Lin Mei clenched her fists.

"That woman is still locked up in the secret room, if the master still has doubts, you can go to the trial again. I've already sent someone to Jiangnan to investigate, and it won't take long to know the real person behind the scenes. ”
