Chapter 172: Clearing Grievances
"In your eyes, I am a cruel mother, I can be cruel enough to kill my own daughter, but if it is not a last resort, who would do such a unconscionable thing, if I don't do this, the entire Lin family will be ruined." Mrs. Lin is desperate and helpless, she is also coerced, if she doesn't kill Lin Ziwei, then the entire Lin family will be washed in blood.
Dozens of lives were lost in the Lin family, and Mrs. Lin had to do so.
Shen Xi looked at Mrs. Lin's appearance, and only sighed slightly, who could accuse her of anything. The entire Lin family is just a chess piece pinched in the hands of others, and they are the victims in this bloody battle for succession.
"Shen Xi, if it weren't for you, our Lin family wouldn't have come to this point, I'm going to kill you." As she spoke, Mrs. Lin suddenly drew her sword and stabbed at Shen Xi, but fortunately, Chang Yi reacted extremely quickly and quickly pulled Shen Xi aside.
Lu Qingyi and Liu Congwen teamed up to arrest Mrs. Lin.
Mrs. Lin was imprisoned, and on the day Lin Ziwei was buried, it rained inexplicably, and Shen Xi didn't go to the scene, she just heard a lot of talk in the bookstore.
The people who talked about her being the murderer that day are now talking about Mrs. Lin again, Shen Xi just listened to it and gave up, Mrs. Lin's murder of women spread all over the capital, and then Shen Xi heard that Mrs. Lin committed suicide in prison.
Lord Lin was also cut off from his official position because of this incident, and the talented woman who was at the height of his prime-time died tragically, and the Lin family was also disintegrated overnight and became the laughing stock of the capital.
No one knows who threatened Mrs. Lin, but apart from Chang Wen and the queen, it seems that there is no third person.
Shen Xi was cleared of his name, and Ding Ling came to congratulate.
It just so happened that Chang Yi was also there, this was the second time Ding Ling saw Chang Yi, this time Chang Yi was different from the last time she was in Zuichun Building, so she looked at it twice, who knew that Chang Yi had just turned around and smiled at her.
This smile startled Ding Ling's backwater-like heart, and he beat secretly for a long time.
Ding Ling is a native of Qinglou, he has long lost any feelings, and he has never expected any man, nor does he dare to expect that he will have feelings. But now, she has moved her heart that shouldn't be moved, and the other party is still someone she can't climb in her life.
Thinking of this, Ding Ling couldn't help but feel a little sad.
"What are you thinking? So fascinating? Shen Xi looked at Ding Ling, and then looked at Chang Yi not far away.
"I didn't think about anything, I just came to congratulate you, and finally cleared up my grievances and raised my head to be a man." Ding Ling raised the teacup in his hand as he said and drank it.
"Alas, this Lin family is also pitiful." When Shen Xi mentioned the Lin family, he still couldn't bear it.
"You poor family, if the truth is not ascertained, I am afraid that you will be in prison by now that it has reached the emperor." Ding Ling's heart is harder than Shen Xi's, after all, her experience is beyond the reach of ordinary people.
"Do the third princes often come to you?" Ding Ling glanced at Chang Yi again as he spoke.
"He doesn't come often, he came today to tell me that I was going to the winter feast." When Shen Xi said about the winter banquet, he frowned, I heard that this time he just caught up with the envoys from other countries to come to Beijing, and they received them together by the way.
These naturally have nothing to do with Shen Xi, but who knows what ideas the emperor will have. 678
Because there were envoys from other countries to Beijing, Lu Qingyi was also called into the palace to help, and the emperor was looking for someone to go outside the capital to greet the envoys.
Chang Wen and Chang Qian both recommended themselves in Mao, but the emperor looked at them and refused directly. Chang Dry is unstable, Chang Wen has a violent temperament, which is really inappropriate.
At this time, Chang Yi came out, this was the first time he recommended himself to the emperor, the emperor looked at him and frowned slightly, "This matter is left to you and Lu Qingyi to deal with, but the ugly words can be said in front, if something goes wrong with you, only you ask." ”
"Father, rest assured, the son will arrange everything." Chang Yi's voice is very soft, but it is full of power, since he has already started the battle for succession, there is no reason to be cowardly.
He couldn't sit still.
"Third brother, the envoys who came this time are all important ministers of other countries, you have to be well received." As soon as he left the court, Chang Qian came up and said to Chang Yi, he had a smile on his face, but the smile seemed to be fake after all.
"Don't worry about the emperor's brother, since my father handed over this matter to his minister, the minister's brother will naturally protect it desperately." There was a lack of sharp light in Chang Yi's eyes, and he knew Chang Gan's thoughts.
"Brother Huang, my brother also warns you, there are some things you better not do, with the current situation, it is not very beneficial to you!" Chang Yi waved his hand and left, leaving Chang Qian there with his fists clenched.
Although Chang Qian is the crown prince, his ability to do things is extremely poor, it is nothing more than the support of the He family and the queen in the court, otherwise his position as the prince would have been taken away by Chang Wen a long time ago.
Although the crown prince is the future prince of a country, according to the emperor's temperament, he may not let Chang Qian be the emperor, once he sits on the throne, he is afraid that he will send this country on the road to destruction.
Chang Yi and Lu Qingyi have been busy welcoming the envoys these days, the envoys will arrive in Beijing a few days in advance, and they must arrange a good place to live, and their safety is the top priority, and it is inevitable that someone will come to make trouble during this time, and they have to be prepared for these things.
Shen Xi was also brought into the palace by Changqing today, because there was an envoy coming, so Changqing was extremely excited, plus the winter banquet, so the palace was arranged everywhere to be very festive, and the snow had to be swept clean, and the whole palace didn't look depressed, which was completely different from the last time Shen Xi came.
"Sister Shen, don't you know, Helan Zhi is now being punished by the teacher for copying scriptures a hundred times because he made a mistake!" When Chang Qing said this, she smiled very happily, her daily routine is to have remediated Helan for fun.
"Princess, you are like this, aren't you afraid that one day she will bite you back? It's better for you to be careful. "Although I know that Chang Qing is favored, after all, Helan Zhi has the He family and the queen behind him, and it is inevitable that they will secretly attack Chang Qing at some point.
Changqing is in this harem, and there is no concubine to cover her, and the emperor favors her again, and this harem is also the queen's world.
"I'm afraid, how can I not be afraid, but you also know, even if I am afraid, I am the only one who is alone, I can only be careful, if something really happens, I will only blame my life." Chang Qing sighed again, she was born in the harem all the year round, how could she not know what those methods were, and all her willfulness was just to hide her fear.
Shen Xi looked at Chang Qing like this, reached out and patted her hand to show comfort.
They were chatting, when they saw the queen coming towards them with a serious face, and when they saw the queen, even if Shen Xi was unhappy in his heart, he had to say hello.
The queen stopped and smiled at Shen Xi, looking still generous and decent, "Miss Shen, why do you have time to enter the palace today?" I thought you would be ashamed to enter the palace because you were afraid to see Lan Zhi! ”
Shen Xi knew what the queen meant.
