Chapter 252: The Wicked
The old man did not answer, but looked at her quietly.
Bai Ling continued, "You don't have the surname Shen, your surname is Lin. Your father, Lin Xiang, was a craftsman who was helped by the Shen family. You don't have any other brothers, so he passed on the craft to you alone. You usually work as a flower farmer in the Shen family, and in your spare time, you can earn some spare money by painting snuff bottles to subsidize your family, right? ”
The old man's expression was a little warm, "Ming Gong is really right, Bai Siyao, you are really a strange person." Where did you get all this? So many years have passed, and even I have to forget about it. ”
Bai Ling's ears moved.
Ming Gong
She quietly played with the glass bottle in her hand, "With such a big situation in Beijing, he can even arrange the pillow people on the saint, what else can't your Ming Gong do?" ”
The old man smiled faintly, "If you can't do this, how can you bring down the Song Party?" ”
Bai Ling's hand under the table shook suddenly, and this sentence really surprised her.
"Rely on indiscriminate killing of innocents to bring down the Song Party? Relying on the grass to take down the Song Party? ”
The old man was calm, but suddenly changed the topic, "Bai Siyao, didn't you ask me when I knew your identity?" ”
Bai Ling stared at the old man.
"Actually, I knew it before you first came here."
"Your Ming Gong also told you."
"Yes, Xiao Ya and I have been hiding in Baihuaya all these years, and it is all thanks to the secret help that Ming Gong has been secretly all the way through" The old lady looked at Bai Ling with burning eyes, "Ming Gong admires you very much, this is what he told me personally." ”
Bai Ling smiled, she put her right hand on the coffee table, and supported her side face a little lazily.
"yes, what does he admire about me?"
The old man said slowly, "He appreciates that you are alone in the harem, although you are stumbling, you can still maintain your heart." Not only can you do what you have to do, but you also know how not to be driven by others and not become the new executioner. It's not something that everyone has. It's not easy to be able to do this at your age. ”
Bai Ling's eyes narrowed slightly.
I thought that Aunt Shen was here to be false and real, so that I could get a few clues from her mouth, but I didn't think that the other party had been waiting here for a long time.
Bai Ling raised his eyes and looked at the old man in front of him, "These words were all conveyed to me by Ming Gong?" ”
"Yes."
"What else did he say?"
"The Great Zhou Dynasty is now rotten at the root, Emperor Jianxi is old and faint, and when the court is so poor, he still shamelessly holds a banquet in the palace and Jian'an Lake. In this way, the emperor has no face to meet the ancestors of the Great Zhou, and he is not worthy of continuing to enjoy the national funds. ”
Bai Ling tilted his head slightly and asked, "Then, who deserves it?" ”
The old man replied slowly, "Everyone has their own answers, so I don't need to say anything more as an old man." ”
Bai Ling laughed, with an undisguised sense of absurdity in his laughter.
She seemed to have suddenly figured out a lot of things, and she seemed to have a lot of things she couldn't understand.
"Aunt Shen," Bai Ling put down the snuffbox in her hand, she propped up the table with both hands, and moved a little closer in the direction of Mrs. Shen, "What do you think of your father-in-law's daughter?" ”
"She is the daughter of the Shen family," the old man's face was calm, and his voice was also a little unquestionably determined, "It is her responsibility to avenge her father." ”
"Twenty years, it's enough to sharpen a knife, I really have a heart of revenge, Taoguang has been obscure for so many years, wouldn't it be clean and neat for her to slash the enemy with a knife after she entered the palace," Bai Ling said in a low voice, "How are you going to avenge this revenge now, do you want to avenge it on the enemy's bed?" ”
"What's wrong with reporting in bed?" The old man smiled calmly, "The lord and the lady are already dead, and then let Xiaoya put all her twenty years into it, study hard every day, wear the stars and the moon, and wait for a knife to kill a faint monarch and ambush herself, is it worth it?" ”
Bai Ling did not respond.
The old man then smiled and said, "It is said that killing people and setting fire to the gold belt, building bridges and repairing roads without corpses is always to put yourself in, why don't you let yourself live comfortably?" I never told Xiaoya about her background, she was completely a child who grew up from this hundred flowers. Grab what you like, destroy what you hate, and I don't know how much more comfortable my life is than the old lady back then. ”
These words stirred up waves in Bai Ling's heart, and after a long time, she sighed lightly, "Aunt Shen can think about it." ”
The old man smiled and said, "What's not to think of?" Twenty years ago, the Dog Emperor killed her parents, but twenty years later, she slept in the Dog Emperor's golden palace, and was raised by the Dog Emperor, which made his harem unpeaceful. You only saw that the emperor killed a few historians for the concubine's staff, but the emperor secretly killed ten times or a hundred times the number of people who were degraded for Xiaoya, and these accounts were all recorded on the emperor's head in the final analysis.
"A knife killed him, and he was in pain once, and he died. How can a dead man be made to suffer again? Why don't you let him live for two more years, let him open his eyes and see how his stupidity has become a big mistake step by step.
"Think about it, how will this be recorded in the history books in the future." A smile gradually appeared on the old man's face, "Our Lord Shen has been famous for thousands of years, and the Dog Emperor has been stinking for thousands of years. ”
When Bai Ling heard this, he felt that it was enough.
"That's all for today." She stood up from the stool with her hands on her knees.
The old man did not stop her, and she quietly helped Bai Ling to put the snuff box back into the small box. Bai Ling took it with both hands, and when she was about to walk to the door, she turned her head again, "With all due respect, if your lord is really worthy of following that Lord Shen's daughter, he will not be sent to the palace in the first place. ”
On the way back, although the weather was a little hot, Bai Ling only felt that he was in an ice cave.
If before coming here, she still had some illusions about the current situation, tonight's conversation with Aunt Shen wiped out her last bit of hope when the people, people's livelihood, and peace in the family and country, the meat eaters were pretending to care about this matter.
In fact, who doesn't always have their eyes fixed on the snow in front of their house.
These people know too well how to tilt each other, and everything they have can be traded for them, and they can easily put the scales on the scales as some kind of price that has to be paid.
It's all a raccoon dog.
"Are you okay," Wei Fourteen asked softly from the side, "Your face is very bad now." ”
"I was almost used as a knife." Bai Ling whispered, "I'm a little scared. ”
The fire in Donglin Temple happened to burn so much, and the suspicions of Lin Jieyu's identity had already risen.
Didn't the Lord Guild know what the consequences would be?
No, it won't.
If Bai Ling had told the concubines about this when he realized that Lin Jieyu might be Shen Yan's daughter, I am afraid that Lin Jieyu would have been secretly punished by the exposure of her identity by now.
That Ming Gong probably wanted to let himself be the messenger of this news.
But why do you want to do that?
For them, has Lin Jieyu's use value been squeezed out so quickly?
Bai Ling couldn't figure it out.
But she can be sure of one thing, this Ming Gong is already bound to win the ground, and he is going to snatch Lin Jieyu's head from her......
