403 Madness
Lin Dongxian arrived at the Zhicui Building again, Xiao Er seemed to recognize her, and led her directly to yesterday's room, made a gesture of invitation, and motioned for her to go in. ◢ With ◢ Dream ◢ Xiao ◢ lā Lin Dongxian was just about to raise her feet to go in, but her sleeves were gently pulled out by Xin Chun beside her, shook her head at her, and motioned her not to go in.
Xin Chun always had an inexplicable sense of fear, for fear that something bad was going to happen. Lin Dongxian patted the back of her hand with her backhand, comforted her with a smile, and then pushed open the door and walked in, Xin Chun could only restrain her thoughts, speed up her pace and follow her in. Zhou Min was wearing a light blue silver embroidered shirt with 100 butterflies, and only the sleeves were wider than the average one, and he was sassy in the wind. The waist is tightly tucked, and below is a long skirt embroidered with goose yellow embroidered white magnolia.
Combing a simple peach heart bun, wearing only a few stars of milky white pearls, reflecting the dark and bright clouds, and a slanted jade hairpin hangs a thin silver tassel. A beautiful heart-shaped face, a small and straight nose, willow-like curved eyebrows, thin lips, and the thick green silk fell softly and fell out of the face. With a pleasant expression on his face and a charming smile on the corner of his mouth, he was sitting at the table, drinking tea.
seemed to be waiting for Lin Dongxian's arrival, there was another cup of tea on the table, and when he saw Lin Dongxian coming, he smiled at her and motioned for her to sit down. When Xin Chun and the others entered the mansion, Zhou Min had already been married, so they were very unfamiliar with Zhou Min and did not know Zhou Min's true identity.
"How can you serve the master, why don't you hurry up and help Mrs. Zhou sit down!" Qiuhua's sharp-eyed Xin Chun stood in a daze, and hurriedly scolded. Xin Chun immediately came back to his senses and looked at Lin Dongxian, Lin Dongxian just smiled and stretched out his hand to her, Xin Chun understood what she meant, took her hand, and Lin Dongxian sat down slowly. Only Qiuhua was waiting by Zhou Min's side, and Lin Dongxian had learned the lesson of the last time, so she didn't dare to drink the tea that Zhou Min prepared for her easily.
Zhou Min may have poisoned the tea again, and then she drank the antidote herself in advance, of course it would be fine. But she can't do it, Zhou Min smiled and blinked, "Sister-in-law, what's the matter, you still think I'm going to poison the tea?" "Princess, since you are here, then let's open the skylight and say something, I have already done what the princess ordered, can you hand over the antidote and the two maids to me?" Lin Dongxian pretended to be calm and stared at Zhou Min, her hands under the table were stacked, pinching each other, resisting the urge to strangle Zhou Min.
Zhou Min laughed out loud, there was no princess at all, Xin Chun seemed to understand Zhou Min's identity, and called Lin Dongxian's sister-in-law, and she was the princess, so she was not the eldest lady of the mansion who married the second prince. She often listened to the people in the house talk about Zhou Min, no, what did she just say, poisoning in the tea? Xin Chun felt that her brain couldn't keep up with the rhythm, what the hell were they talking about?
"Sister-in-law, don't worry, you just came, hurry up and drink a cup of tea to moisten your throat, rest assured, there is no poison in the tea, can I really harm you." My brother holds my sister-in-law in the palm of my hand, and I don't dare to bully my sister-in-law. Zhou Min smiled at Lin Dongxian and picked up the teacup, and then pursed her lips and drank a few sips, she was with Zhou Qingshu during this time, and nothing else had grown, this opened her eyes and said nonsense, and her duplicitous skills rose, which impressed Lin Dongxian.
Lin Dongxian coughed a few times, "Princess, the tea is free, hurry up and hand over the antidote and the two maids!" Lin Dongxian's face was full of questions, Zhou Min heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he pouted: "Sister-in-law, you really don't understand the amorous feelings, forget it, you want the antidote and there are two maids, but you have to do another thing for me." Of course, today I can let you take a maid and give you half of the antidote. After you help me finish today's business, I will definitely send the other half of the antidote and another maid back to the house in person. ”
Lin Dongxian knew that Zhou Min was not so happy to give her the antidote, and sure enough, she had another request, let Lin Dongxian do things for her again, and there was a faint feeling of bad premonition, which should not be a good thing. "Sister-in-law, look, I knew you wouldn't let me down, or I would have poured the antidote into the river. Come, sister-in-law, this is half of the antidote for you, Qiuhua, go and bring the two maids over, and let the sister-in-law choose one to bring back. Zhou Min said as he took out a packet of medicinal powder from his sleeve and put it on the table, handed it to Lin Dongxian, and at the same time turned his head and ordered Qiuhua.
Qiuhua turned to leave, Xin Chun's anxious gaze stayed with Lin Dongxian, only to see Lin Dongxian indifferently stuff a packet of medicinal powder handed by Zhou Min into her sleeve, and her hands were about to bleed. The silence in the room can be heard when a needle falls on the ground, Lin Dongxian sat upright, Zhou Min smiled lightly and continued to drink tea, since Lin Dongxian didn't drink it, then forget it.
After a while, I saw Qiuhua walking to them with Xin Xia and Xin Dong, Xin Chun looked at the two of them with joy on her face, she was usually very aggressive, but it didn't mean that she was stupid and didn't understand the current situation. Zhou Min raised his eyebrows slightly, put down the tea cup in his hand, and folded his hands on his knees, "Sister-in-law, these two maids are here, I don't know which one my sister-in-law wants to take away?" ”
When Xin Xia and Xin Dong heard this, they glanced at each other, and they held their breath, Lin Dongxian pulled the corners of her lips: "Princess, I didn't agree to your conditions, how can I pick people?" "Sister-in-law, don't be kidding, since you have accepted the antidote from me, you are waiting to acquiesce in my plan. Sister-in-law, I advise you to listen to me obediently, it's not good if it gets big. Zhou Min's body leaned forward slightly, and he persuaded kindly.
Lin Dongxian played with the silk handkerchief in her hand, but she didn't let her get her wish, but a thought crossed her mind, and she was silent for a long time before she spoke, and her voice instantly became much older, "Since this is the case, then I will listen to the princess, Xin Dong, I am going to wronged you." The guilty gaze fell on Xin Dong's body, Xin Dong shook her head silently, she was already a blessing from God to be by Lin Dongxian's side, and she was satisfied if she could share her worries and not add to her trouble.
She once thought about committing suicide, but was stopped by Xin Xia, and she believed that Lin Dongxian would definitely have a way to save them. Only by being alive can you serve Lin Dongxian, isn't it? Xin Dong was very conflicted, and now he breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and it was not bad to let Xin Xia accompany Lin Dongxian. Qiuhua received Zhou Min's eye signal, and left with Xin Dong knowingly.
"You all go outside and wait, I have something important to tell your wife." Zhou Min said this to Xin Xia and Xin Chun, and after getting Lin Dongxian's nod, they were reluctant to leave. "Sister-in-law, I really didn't expect that there would be such a heartfelt maid by your side so soon. But I have to remind my sister-in-law that Aunt Qing is not a fuel-efficient lamp. The few maids around my sister-in-law are all good-looking, I think my sister-in-law might as well give them to my brother and let him be included in the room, so that I can share my sister-in-law's worries, isn't it? ”
Zhou Min pursed his lips and smiled while holding a silk handkerchief as he spoke, Lin Dongxian frowned: "Princess, this doesn't seem to have anything to do with you, I don't know what the princess wants me to do for you next?" "Sister-in-law, I really didn't expect you to poison the little prince, Concubine Su can treat you as a good sister. Sister-in-law, don't look at me like this, make me feel scared. I'm just not worth it for Concubine Su, she treats you as a good sister, but you stabbed her in the back, of course you did it for the child in your womb and the two maids around you.
If it were me, I wouldn't know what to choose. Sister-in-law, don't talk about this, what I want you to do next is very simple. The little prince has passed away, you find an opportunity to enter the palace to comfort Concubine Su, and then find a suitable opportunity to put this in your father's tea. You can rest assured that this will never kill my father, I can swear to God. Zhou Min saw Lin Dongxian's suspicious eyes, and immediately raised his fingers to swear to the sky.
On the way here, Lin Dongxian guessed that since Zhou Min had returned to Beijing, it would not be so easy to leave, and he would definitely plan something big and poison the little prince to death, and then it would be the emperor's turn. She married Zhou Qingshu, everything was planned for him, running for him, husband and wife are one, one is prosperous, one is lost, but this is also under the premise of morality. If Zhou Qingshu was really benevolent, she didn't believe that the emperor would not pass the throne to him, but to a little prince who had just been born a few days ago.
Now that the little prince is gone, Zhou Min is still unwilling, and he wants to poison the emperor, which is simply mad. She was going to kill them all, Lin Dongxian's gaze gradually became cold, and Zhou Min in front of her was so strange to her. Zhou Min knew that this was a bit of a hardship for Lin Dongxian, and once it was discovered, the consequences would be unimaginable. Of course, Zhou Min and Zhou Qingshu can't be involved, who let Zhou Min be the daughter who got married, and the water that was spilled out no longer belongs to the Chengguo Mansion.
"Sister-in-law, I know you can't give me an answer for a while, but I can wait and give my sister-in-law a day to think about it. At this hour tomorrow, I am here waiting for my sister-in-law's good news. Zhou Min smiled and held the teacup in his hand, and just as he was about to purse his lips and drink it, the teacup was thrown on the ground and shattered.
She was just about to raise her head and scold angrily, but she didn't expect that it would be Zhou Mingmu who appeared in front of her, Lin Dongxian and Zhou Mingmu were estranged, how could she tell him about it. Lin Dongxian smiled knowingly, Zhou Min was afraid that she never dreamed of it, she had already taken precautions. Since when you left the palace early in the morning, she once told Lang Hua that if Zhou Mingmu went to find him, let Zhou Mingmu come to the Zhicui Building, and she wanted Zhou Mingmu to hear what Zhou Min had done with her own ears.
What she wants to destroy is the honor that Cheng Guogong has single-handedly won, as his most proud grandson, Zhou Mingmu will never allow such a thing to happen. Sure enough, everything was in her control, and she overheard Zhou Min giving Lin Dongxian poison outside the door, and only gave half of the antidote, he couldn't hold back the anger in his chest and was ready to rush in to teach her a lesson, but reason pulled him back.
He also wanted to hear how heartbroken Zhou Min could say, and sure enough, Zhou Min actually asked Lin Dongxian to drug the emperor, which was not as simple as cutting off his head, but a whole house of beheading, and the nine clans. Zhou Min was digging a pit for Lin Dongxian to jump into, if he guessed correctly, Zhou Min would definitely confess to him what Lin Dongxian had done afterwards, and use it to threaten him and assist Zhou Qingshu to ascend the throne and become emperor.
He looked at Zhou Min's gaze and slowly became cold, is this still the Zhou Min he knows? Zhou Min never expected that Zhou Mingmu would be outside the door at this time, and even pushed the door in, she didn't let people wait outside the door, if they saw Zhou Mingmu, how could they not come in to report, could it be said that Zhou Mingmu was hiding in the dark? She knew that Zhou Mingmu had always been insidious, so she must be hiding in the dark, "Brother, why are you here?" ”
stared at her in fear, his hands wrapped around each other, his brain was spinning rapidly, and he wanted to say what words to persuade Zhou Mingmu. She will feel that her brain does not seem to be enough, if Mu Xuanzhang is here, it will definitely be better than her thoughts, Zhou Min is now a mess in her mind.
Zhou Mingmu sneered and asked, "Princess, are you joking, shouldn't I ask you?" Why are you here, the Holy Lord has ordered you and the second prince to stay in the fiefdom. You are good, now you dare to disobey the order of the Holy Lord and return to Beijing without permission, you know how big a crime this is. Do you want to plunge the Chengguo Mansion into a place of no return, and what good will it do you? Princess, you have disappointed me so much! ”
It's really heartbreaking, Zhou Zhengxing and the Xue family have passed away, and the two of them are still alive in the house, although Zhou Min is far away in the fiefdom, he still misses her in his heart. It's not about to be the New Year, he has already sent someone to take care of the affairs of the capital where she loves to eat, and it stands to reason that he should have received it, and it is impossible not to reply to him without a letter. If he hadn't gone to Lang Hua today and got Lang Hua's instructions, he wouldn't have dreamed that Zhou Min would appear in front of him alive.
"Brother, don't say that, listen to me, I have a hard time, brother." Zhou Min forcibly suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart and took two steps forward to explain. Zhou Mingmu stretched out his hand to stop him: "No need, princess Niangniang, I don't want to hear your explanation." You'd better hand over your sister-in-law's other half of the antidote, and immediately take your people back to the fiefdom, before everything is discovered by the saint. Otherwise, you will be killed, but don't blame me for not warning you in advance! ”
Zhou Mingmu didn't have time to talk to her, so it was a serious matter to force her to hand over the antidote. Overhearing the conversation between the two of them outside the door just now, Zhou Mingmu was shocked, the seemingly soft Zhou Min was so desperate for the throne that he poisoned Lin Dongxian, who was pregnant and about to give birth. The first time was angry at what Zhou Min did, and then he was annoyed that he had recently estranged himself from Lin Dongxian, which would cause Lin Dongxian not to tell him about such a major matter.
He was shocked when the relationship between the two of them became so estranged, and he blamed himself for not allowing the relationship between the two of them to develop like this. Zhou Min suddenly showed a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth, "Brother, the matter has come to this point, there is no turning back, if you don't want to listen to my explanation, then forget it." But brother, I'm not doing this for myself, but for the good of all of us.
If the husband ascends the throne, the benefits of the elder brother are indispensable, and the glory and wealth are at your fingertips, why can't the elder brother help the younger sister, the younger sister will say a lot of good things for you in front of the husband. When my brother is crowned king and worships the prime minister in the future, he will definitely thank his sister for her actions today. Lin Dongxian stared at Zhou Min with a faint smile, her face was not red and her heart was not beating when she said this, she was really shameless, and she even said this kind of thing.
The power is so tempting that she forgets everything, family honor, etiquette and honesty. Lin Dongxian is full of contempt and disdain for her, this kind of person should not live in the world, now she just needs to wait for Zhou Mingmu to deal with her. After all, this is Zhou Mingmu's cousin, let him know that this matter is not so simple, she still wants to see how shameless Zhou Min can be?
