Chapter 369: Attempted Escape
Back at home, Lin Jiujiu put on a crumbling appearance and fainted as soon as he entered the door.
Fortunately, Lin Jiujiu is now the county lord, and the county lord is sick, so naturally he can call the imperial doctor in the palace to come, Yu Wenhao has already told Gong Yichen about his plans, and the imperial doctor is Gong Yichen's henchman, and he has been taken care of by Gong Yichen long before going to the county lord's mansion.
The imperial doctor hurriedly came, and after taking Lin Jiujiu's pulse in a matter-of-fact manner, his brows tightened: "The county lord is depressed in his heart, and he is infected with wind and cold, and the combination of the two causes a disease that he can't afford to be ill, if he wants to treat his physical illness, he needs to treat his heart disease first." β
But now no one in the imperial city knows that Lin Jiujiu's heart disease is the deceased Yu Wenhao, and now Yu Wenhao is dead, and he learned that his uncle is the culprit who killed his father. No matter how Lin Jiujiu shows up, she is still a weak woman after all, and the world is embarrassed when she mentions these experiences.
In the county lord's mansion, Mrs. Lin pretended to be six gods and asked the imperial doctor: "Dare to ask sir, then what should I do now?" β
Seeing this, the imperial doctor took the opportunity to give Mrs. Lin an idea: "Although the county lord's illness is dangerous, in the final analysis, it is the wind and cold, and the lady may be able to take the county lord to Wuxiang Mountain, where there is a peerless divine doctor who can rejuvenate with his hands, and maybe he can cure the county lord's illness." β
At this moment, Mrs. Lin had long lost her own opinions, and when she heard this, she hurriedly responded again and again.
For a time, "the county lord of Linyang died his fiancΓ©, and the murderer who killed his father was his second uncle, who went to the mountain with his mother to see a doctor and contracted a cold, and Mrs. Lin was forced to decide to take her daughter to Wuxiang Mountain to find a peerless miracle doctor" rumors spread all over the streets and alleys.
Everyone in the world laments the deep affection of the county lord and general, and some people are worried that they will never be able to buy good-looking cosmetics in the future, let alone their favorite perfumes.
Some people also say that Lin Jiujiu is a lone star, his father and husband died, and his uncle's family died, only Lin Jiujiu's small broom star and Mrs. Lin's big broom star are fine. However, Lin Jiujiu is now the county lord, although everyone has different thoughts, no one dares to arrange it around.
However, this matter still reached Yu Wenhao's ears, and when he thought that his beloved woman had to be named a broom star because of his own necessity, he was very angry, and vowed to compensate Lin Jiujiu twice as much as the matter passed.
Here all the subordinates retreated: "Jiujiu, everyone has gone down, you get up." β
Hearing this, Lin Jiujiu sat up, and Mrs. Lin took the opportunity to support Lin Jiujiu: "Jiujiu, what should we do next?" Although Mrs. Lin is an elder, I don't know when she began to habitually ask Lin Jiujiu's opinion on everything, and Lin Jiujiu has never disappointed her.
"Now the top priority is for us to go to Wuxiang Mountain as soon as possible, and you can arrange the big and small things in the mansion and Tianxiang Building."
After explaining this, Lin Jiujiu was still not at ease: "Mother, if we can't get out of the city smoothly, you must remember to leave me alone, go out of the city by yourself, and when everything is over, I will go to Wuxiang Mountain to find you." β
Mrs. Lin knew that Lin Jiu had always been smart, and she said that if she couldn't get out of the city smoothly, there would be an accident nine times out of ten, so she couldn't help but be very worried: "Jiujiu, we have to go together." β
Lin Jiujiu soothed Mrs. Lin's hand: "Mother, don't worry. I'm sure I'll be fine, there is Yu Wenhao, he is a general, how can he let me have something. β
Lin Jiujiu said this well, but now Yu Wenhao is not good at showing up after all, it is inconvenient to do a lot of things, and he may not be able to protect his daughter, Mrs. Lin is still faintly panicked in her heart, but in order to reassure her daughter, she still pretended to be relieved and smiled: "Okay, mother believes that Yu Wenhao will make my daughter fine." β
After explaining this, Lin Jiujiu lay down again, Mrs. Lin has always believed in her daughter, and she arranged various affairs according to what Lin Jiujiu said without asking too much, everything was arranged at night, and the curfew time had arrived, so it seemed that she could only wait until the next morning to go out.
Early the next morning, the mother and daughter were ready early, and the carriage had stopped in front of the county lord's mansion. Lin Jiujiu helped Mrs. Lin to board the carriage.
It wasn't until she got into the carriage that Mrs. Lin's heart, which had been hanging all night, faintly fell back into her stomach. Seeing that she was getting closer and closer to the city gate, the smile on the corner of Mrs. Lin's mouth became more and more real.
At this moment, just as Lin Jiujiu was worried, the people from Gong Xiangling still came.
"What do you mean by this, even dare to block the way of the county lord?" Lin Jiujiu sat in the car and didn't come forward, only a cold voice came out, and Mrs. Lin nervously held Lin Jiujiu's hand.
"I'm really sorry to disturb the county lord, but there is a reason for it," the leader of the roadblock explained without humility or arrogance, "We are the family members of the Regent's Mansion, and now the late autumn aunt in our mansion has used the incense powder of your Tianxianglou, and she has a rash on her face. He makes trouble in the mansion every day, and the prince also has a headache so much that he can't help it, so he sent us over to invite the county lord to go. β
"What if I don't go?" Although Lin Jiujiu was pretending to be sick, his momentum was not weak at all.
"Don't embarrass us, the county lord should go with the slaves, this late autumn girl is the person who the prince holds in his heart, we are just slaves, if we don't invite you, we will not have our good fruit to eat." The leader still refused to back down.
"The county lord opened the door to do business, the cause of our late autumn aunt's allergy is because of the incense powder of Tianxianglou, even if you don't come to apologize, you have to give an explanation, right?"
Gong Xiangling's people did not back down in the face of the county lord, and they also threatened her with such a word as Tianxianglou's reputation, presumably because she had been raised by him. Lin Jiujiu knew that it was useless to talk more, he would definitely not be able to go out of the city this time, if he didn't solve this matter, even the Tianxianglou signboard that he had worked so hard to set up would be smashed.
Lin Jiujiu's hand put on the hand that her mother was holding her, and comforted her mother: "Mother, there is still something to do in Tianxianglou, you go first, and I will come after I finish dealing with it." β
Mrs. Lin knew that Lin Jiujiu was afraid that she would not be able to get out of the city this time, and there were tears in her eyes, but she still remembered her daughter's words yesterday, and she could never be a drag on her daughter and son-in-law, so she carefully told Lin Jiujiu twice and watched Lin Jiujiu get out of the car.
Here, Lin Jiujiu got into the carriage of the Regent's Palace, and over there, Mrs. Lin walked out of the city.
Mrs. Lin looked at her daughter's Jinpa in her hand and couldn't help sighing: she was useless, watching her daughter being taken away, there was nothing she could do, and the only thing she could do was not to embarrass the child.
"I hope Yu Wenhao doesn't forget what he said and protects Jiujiu." Mrs. Lin prayed.
Here, Lin Jiujiu got into the carriage of Gong Xiangling, and she was worried that her existence would pose a threat to Yu Wenhao.
Thinking of this, Lin Jiujiu pulled out the hairpin on his head.
