Chapter Seventy-Two: The Human Heart

Liu's mansion has exploded now, and the good son said that he would die, and Mrs. Liu fainted the moment she saw his body.

Master Liu of Qianhu was under the command of Dingnanhou, and after knowing that after his son's death, he was still reasonable, so he immediately reported to the official and went to Dingnanhou's mansion.

Dingnanhou was only tired in the afternoon, thinking about the wonderful taste last night, and couldn't help but still reminisce.

Yahuan came in from outside, saw the person who had already gotten up through the light veil, and said, "Master Hou, Lord Liu is here." ”

When Dingnanhou heard this, he only wrinkled his brows slightly, and then said, "Let him go to the flower hall and wait, by the way, what about Madam?" ”

"Madame went to the palace with Miss Lin early in the morning, and she hasn't returned yet." Yahuan replied truthfully, and after speaking, he hesitated for a moment before raising his eyes and asking him: "Master Hou, the master over there in Xiyuan didn't seem to sleep all night last night, do you want to go and have a look?" ”

Dingnanhou thought of the flower-like and amorous woman in Xiyuan, paused, and then said lightly: "You go and pass on a word, Benhou is still resting with his wife tonight, so she doesn't have to wait." With that, he walked out.

Yahuan bit her lip slightly, and hurriedly went to Xiyuan to reply.

Dingnanhou went all the way to the front yard, saw Lord Liu, who seemed to have not slept all night, and said with a smile: "What's wrong?" ”

"Xiaguan asked Hou Ye to call the shots, someone murdered Xiaguan's son, Xiaguan's ability is limited, and he really can't afford to provoke that person." Lord Liu knelt on the ground in a sad manner.

When Dingnanhou heard this, he was a little surprised: "There is such a thing." But what do you mean, do you already know who harmed your son? ”

"Yes!" Lord Liu nodded firmly.

"Then let's talk about it first...... "Dingnanhou naturally won't ignore it, he knows very well the way to control it, if he doesn't care about it, those subordinates will definitely not work for him in the future, but the premise is that that person is someone he can provoke.

Lord Liu's eyes were red, and he raised his hand respectfully, and then said, "It's none other than General Zheng's Mansion!" ”

Dingnanhou furrowed his brows, and then Lord Liu said his thoughts: "When my son died yesterday, there was a fainting Miss Zheng Mansion beside me, but it was Zheng Mansion, the secretary of the Ministry of War. ”

"Then why do you think it's General Zheng's Mansion?"

"Because someone saw it." Lord Liu lowered his eyes, as if to hide his sadness, Ding Nanhou didn't pay attention, he all cared about what he said: "Who will see it in the middle of the night?" ”

"It's exactly what the people of the Zheng Mansion saw." Lord Liu said firmly, but what he recalled in his mind was Zheng Lai's contempt and ridicule for himself repeatedly in the court, even if he knew that his son was killed by someone from the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of War, he would not identify it now, because he had followed the subordinates of the Marquis of Dingnan for so many years, and he knew very well what his character was, and he was happy to do what the wall was pushing down, but if he was asked to tear his face with the Shangshu of the Military Department, who held real power, it was absolutely impossible, so it was better to take the opportunity to get rid of Zheng Lai.

"This Zheng Mansion person is really arrogant! You wait, I will immediately enter the palace to present this matter to the emperor for you, and I will definitely seek justice for you! Dingnanhou said immediately.

Lord Liu was just grateful, and after thanking him, he came out of the Dingnan Hou Mansion.

When he came out, he saw his little servant, and took out a golden ingot directly from his sleeve: "Isn't your daughter-in-law's sister doing things in the Zheng Mansion, let her come to see me immediately." ”

When the little guy saw the gold, he immediately responded.

Palace.

Lin Jinwen didn't know that this matter had developed in this direction, but after waiting in the queen's palace for a long time, she didn't see her coming, and she knew that Emperor Bacheng wanted to get rid of her brother by Zheng Lai's hand.

Mrs. Dingnanhou couldn't sit still, looked at the palace maid waiting on the side and said with a smile: "Can you bother to go and see if the queen can wake up from her lunch break?" ”

The palace maid smiled very politely and said, "Niangniang's body has been extremely tired these days. Since Mrs. Dingnanhou is pregnant, it is better to go to the side hall to rest first, and then the slave and maid will go to pass it on, and when the mother wakes up, she will tell you immediately. ”

Mrs. Dingnanhou also felt that her waist was a little sore, she didn't sleep well last night, and now she was already sleepy, so she looked at Lin Jinwen apologetically: "Then you are waiting here now." ”

"Madame, go slowly." Lin Jinwen naturally responded.

After Mrs. Hou left, she sat down slowly.

But not long after, the queen's henchman Aunt Yun Jiang came out of it, saw her alone, stepped forward to salute, and then smiled: "Miss Lin, the queen is invited." ”

Lin Jinwen glanced at the palace maid who had just suggested that Mrs. Hou go to the side hall, and when she saw her indifferent, she knew that the queen had planned to see her alone early in the morning.

She got up and responded, and then followed Yun Jiang inside.

The queen's Yikun Palace is very elegantly arranged inside and out, and even one or two fresh flowers and plants are inserted on the edge of the Duobao Pavilion, and I heard that the emperor likes this the most.

Yun Jiang walked to the bead curtain and stood still, and also motioned for her to stop first, before whispering inside: "Niangniang, Miss Lin is here." ”

"Come in."

Two faint words, with a momentum of not being angry and arrogant.

Yun Jiang bowed his head, and then turned sideways to let Lin Jinwen in.

Lin Jinwen lowered her eyes and was angry, she still remembered the fact that the queen almost betrayed herself before, and she didn't dare to forget it, but now she is the only one here, and she has to be more careful.

When I entered the room, I saw the queen in a bright red silk shirt reclining on the side of the beauty couch, holding her forehead with her hands, as if she was staring at something, the hair on her forehead could already see silver threads, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes could not be covered by thick fat powder, and her face was tired, and it seemed that only seriousness and dignity remained.

The queen noticed her gaze and said lightly: "What, do you think this palace is old?" ”

"No one has an immortal fragrance, the mother is dignified and generous, virtuous and virtuous, and she is the master of the middle palace and a model for women in the world." Lin Jinwen lowered her eyes and said. Women are taboo to say that they are old, but the white hair on the queen's forehead can no longer be hidden, and it is more like a reluctant word to say that she is still young.

When the queen heard this, she smiled lightly: "You are different from others. ”

"The mother is too famous......"

"This palace has no reputation, sometimes this palace is also curious, you just have a beautiful face, there are thousands of beauties in this world, such as your fourth sister Lin Zisu, Zheng Ruyi of the Zheng family, and Wang Ruyan of the Wang family, each of which is no worse than you, how did you make Huaiyan love you so alone, and would rather not want the position of King Ning than make you uncomfortable?" The queen is really curious, in the harem, she has seen countless beauties, graceful, looking forward to brilliance, and even more alluring the country, but I never see who the emperor loves, but Zhao Huaiyan, who is most similar to the emperor, can love a woman alone, and threaten herself not to do anything to her when she leaves.

Lin Jinwen actually had doubts in her heart, but she didn't know if Zhao Huaiyan was like herself, she liked it inexplicably, and inexplicably this liking turned into love.

"Courtiers don't know ......"

"I don't know......," the queen muttered, glanced at her, and said, "Whether you know it or not, this palace knows what you are here to do, but as long as you promise this palace, this palace has a way to relieve your brother." ”

Lin Jin's palms tightened slightly: "Niangniang, please speak." ”

"It's very simple, I want you to give me a medicine." Her gaze grew cold.

"There is no medicine in the palace, and the effect of the medicine is silent, it will not die violently in a short time, but it will slowly damage people until they die." The queen looked at her with a light smile: "I want to use it to deal with Concubine De, you may understand?" With Concubine De here, you and Huaiyan will never have peace. ”

Lin Jinwen looked at her deep gaze, but she couldn't see through what she wanted to do.

"No promise?" The queen slowly sat up, took a sip of the rose tea on the side, and then said with a smile: "This tea is good, you sent it to the Pingxi Palace, and the Princess of Pingxi gave it all to the palace." ”

Lin Jinwen knew the meaning of her words, so she only looked at her and asked, "As long as my brother returns safely, Jinwen is willing to take this risk." ”

"How long does it take for the medicine to be ready?"

"One month ......"

"Slow, three days. If nothing is delivered in the third day, your brother is only afraid that he will not be able to return to the sky, and even Huaiyan will not be able to save him. After the queen finished speaking, she gently knocked the tea cup in her hand on the table, Yun Jiang heard the sound, and immediately walked in, and said to Lin Jinwen: "Miss Lin, the hour is not early, the slave maid will send you out of the palace." ”

Lin Jinwen's palms tightened slightly, and seeing that the queen no longer planned to take care of herself, she didn't say anything more, and turned her head away.

Today's queen is very strange, unlike the ordinary dislike of Concubine De, this time when she said that she wanted to use poison, there was clearly a trace of reluctance in her eyes.

Yun Jiang didn't even let her go to see Mrs. Hou and took her out of the palace gate directly, and walked forward from here, just past the Imperial Garden.

She took a few steps forward, and was greeted by Concubine De and Princess Duanhui, who she hadn't seen for a long time.

Concubine De was not surprised when she saw Lin Jinwen at a glance, as if she knew that she would pass by here. Also, Concubine De has been fighting with the queen, how can she not grasp the dynamics in the queen's palace.

Yun Jiang secretly glanced at Lin Jinwen before stepping forward to salute.

Concubine De didn't look at her at all, just stared at Lin Jinwen, and sneered: "The queen was reprimanded by the queen mother, you came, you are really the queen's personal little padded jacket." ”

The queen was reprimanded by the Queen Mother?

Lin Jinwen was slightly surprised, but only pretended to be ordinary: "The courtiers received the favor of the queen's mother, and they should have been accompanied by the palace at that time." ”

Duan Hui glanced at her, but unexpectedly did not say sarcastic to her, only proudly turned his face to look at the scenery.

Concubine De knew that she could speak well, and she didn't argue with her for this moment, so she only smiled: "Concubine Ben heard Kan'er say that your medical skills are very good, and you have cured Mrs. Luo's illness, Concubine Ben also feels unwell at this time, can you also take a look for Concubine Ben?" ”

Yun Jiang immediately said vigilantly: "Niangniang, the slave maid asked people to immediately ask for the imperial doctor for you......"

"What are you talking about, Miss Lin is a famous miracle doctor, why should this concubine be willing to go far? Zuo is just a matter of taking the pulse, could it be that the person invited by the queen mother can't treat the concubine? If this is the case, the concubine has to go to the queen mother and tell it, the queen mother is the master of the middle palace, why don't you even have such generosity. Concubine De sneered.

Yun Jiang bit his lip slightly, and could only look at Lin Jinwen.

Lin Jinwen knew that even the queen would be concubine De here, so she had to say: "Niangniang, please stretch out your hand......"

Concubine De smiled slightly: "Don't worry, there happens to be a room there, let's sit down and watch." "Let's just go ahead.

Lin Jinwen and Yun Jiang glanced at each other, Yun Jiang only looked at the palace maid beside her, and the palace maid understood, and immediately quietly retreated to find the queen.

Concubine De caught a glimpse of the departing palace maid out of the corner of her eye, but she only had cold eyes and did not say anything.

A few people didn't go far, they arrived in the small room, Concubine De stretched out her arm, Lin Jinwen stretched out her hand to explore the pulse, but her hand was grabbed by the palace maid next to Concubine De: "Slow down, our mother's skin is delicate, wait for the slave maid to spread the handkerchief first." After that, Lin Jinwen's hand was loosened.

Lin Jinwen could feel that the fine powder in her palm had been stained on the back of her hand, but she couldn't see it at all if she didn't look closely, could this be the purpose of Concubine De?

She only pretended not to notice, faintly withdrew her hand and put it in her sleeve, and quietly rubbed the powder on the back of her hand on the handkerchief at her waist.

After the palace maid made arrangements, she began to explore the pulse.

Concubine De's pulse was stable, and she didn't have any illness at all.

Lin Jinwen told her the truth, and Concubine De looked at her as if she was relieved: "Since it's okay, forget it, the queen of the province said that Concubine Ben bullied you." ”

Lin Jinwen saw that she unexpectedly didn't make trouble, presumably the problem was the powder that the palace maid smeared on the back of her hand.

Concubine De paused, looked at the palace maid, and said, "Gui Shao, you personally send Miss Lin out of the palace." ”

The palace maid immediately responded.

When Yun Jiang was about to go out with him, he heard Concubine De say: "Aunt Yun Jiang stays, this palace has something to ask you." ”

"But the queen asked the slave to ...... first"

"What are you worried about, since this palace asked people to send her, who would dare to do anything to her halfway?" Concubine De sneered: "If something happens, the Queen Mother and the Emperor will have to punish the concubine for not being strict, why should the concubine be unhappy with this, the queen mother was admonished by the queen mother, and the concubine can still remember it vividly." ”

Yun Jiang's face was slightly pale, but in the end, it was the old man in the palace, he was much calmer, and he only glanced at the remaining two palace maids who came out of the Yikun Palace and said, "You guys are good to escort Miss Lin." ”

"Then aunt, ......" The two palace maids were not at ease, Yun Jiang only glanced at them, and they didn't dare to say anything more.

Lin Jinwen looked at Gui Shao, the palace maid who walked on her left hand side with a straight back, and said goodbye to Concubine De, and then walked out.

Gui Shao hurriedly followed, and walked beside Lin Jinwen.

Lin Jinwen watched her approach her from time to time, until she passed through the imperial garden in front and saw that there was a small but deep river in front of her, and the river meandered in the palace, but most of it was buried and became a dark river.

She walked slowly towards the river, for she had to cross the bridge to get out. But the further she went, the more nervous she found Gui Shao beside her, and when she walked to the bridge, Lin Jinwen deliberately pretended to be a stumbling foot and grabbed Gui Shao beside her, only to find that she was trembling all over.

"Miss Lin, are you okay?" Gui Shao hurriedly withdrew her hand, but she didn't notice that there was an extra handkerchief on her sleeve that was pinned with a silver needle that did not belong to her.

"It's okay, I accidentally broke it." Lin Jinwen smiled lightly, and then stepped forward.

Gui Shao followed more and more nervously, and when she reached the middle of the bridge, Lin Jinwen saw that the guardrail on the side of the bridge had broken somehow, and if someone pushed it, it would be easy to fall.

She didn't wait for Gui Shao to speak, she walked to the bridge and looked down: "The flowing water is murmuring, and the flowers are blooming, it is really a good place." She smiled faintly, but looked at Gui Shao, who was slowly approaching.

"yes, good place." Gui Shao smiled stiffly, walked behind Lin Jinwen, slowly put her hand behind Lin Jin's wife, and looked at her steadily, then gritted her teeth slightly and pushed her forward.

Lin Jinwen was prepared, and the moment she pushed herself, she immediately dragged her backhand and fell into the water with her.

Poof, Lin Jinwen immediately swam to the shore in order to prevent her from drowning herself under the water, fortunately the river was very narrow, she soon arrived at the shore, and was pulled up by the palace maid who rushed over, but Gui Shao seemed to be crazy, waving her hand and slapping the water while trembling and shouting for help, her tone and eyes were desperate.

Lin Jinwen didn't know why she was so panicked, and she didn't look like she didn't know how to water.

Just when she was puzzled, a palace maid suddenly pointed to the water and shouted: "There are a lot of fish ......"

"Fish?" Lin Jinwen also looked down, the strange thing was that these fish were like seeing fish food and swam forward frantically, and the last one pounced on Gui Shao's body one after another, revealing rows of fine and sharp teeth, tearing her into a blur of flesh and blood, and the group of fish was like koi competing for food, densely packed, and the river surface was suddenly dyed blood-red.

Lin Jinwen was also frightened by the strange and bloody picture at this moment, listening to Gui Shao's heart-rending screams, she couldn't help but think of Fang Cai's ability to swim calmly to the shore if she knew that there was such a terrifying thing in this river, and even if she was pulled by Gui Shao, what were the chances that she would be able to come out alive in such a situation.

The guards in the palace heard the sound and quickly rushed over, intending to hold the boat to save people, but those fish even gnawed on the boat, and everyone could only watch the Gui Shao, which was still alive, being eaten to the point that only Sensen's white bones remained.

"What the hell is this......

"Could it be a water ghost?"

The guards began to talk in a low voice, Lin Jinwen couldn't help but be frightened, but she didn't know that she was also pale, she had glimpsed this thing when she was looking through ancient books: "It's a piranha." She spoke weakly, but wondered in her heart, how could there be such a fish Jin Dynasty? Even if there is, it is also in the southwestern frontier.

Wait, Southwest?

The southwest is where the Xiong family is located, and she suspected that the Xiong family was in trouble when her brother was in danger, but she didn't expect the Xiong family to bring this piranha to the palace. But Concubine De did this, even if she killed herself, it was also a move to set herself on fire, how could she ......

Before she finished speaking, she heard a guard muttering in a low voice: "The distant relatives of the queen mother seem to be making a living in the southwest, and I heard that they have entered the palace to ask the queen mother for peace in the past two days." ”

The palace maids beside Lin Jinwen also heard it, and one of them hurriedly ran back without saying a word, and the rest only trembled and helped Lin Jinwen and said, "Miss Lin, the slave will send you out of the palace." ”

Lin Jinwen also knew that the place of right and wrong was not suitable for staying for a long time, but she always felt strange, Concubine De and the queen were not reckless people, if they really did it, how could they make things known to passers-by? Even the guards of the Shenwu Gate knew that she had relatives from the southwest who had come two days ago, let alone Concubine De's maiden family in the southwest.

She thought of the medicinal powder that Gui Shao smeared on the back of her hand, and frowned slightly, could it be that the medicinal powder had nothing to do with attracting piranhas? Concubine De didn't plan to let her be eaten by piranhas in the first place?

She couldn't figure it out, and she didn't notice that someone was looking at her until she reached the palace gate.

"Miss Lin, Concubine Jia." The palace maid reminded.

Lin Jinwen came back to her senses at this time, and raised her eyes to look at the woman in gorgeous clothes standing under the corridor not far from the palace gate, she was already four or five years younger than the queen, and now she was wearing a dark purple wide-sleeved palace skirt, and her hair was swayed obliquely with a few steps, looking a lot younger, and extremely dignified and gentle.

She stepped forward to salute, and Jia Concubine immediately took off her cloak and gave it to her: "Why are your clothes wet?" "Jia Concubine didn't seem to know about Fang Cai.

Lin Jin's eyes deepened slightly, but she only repeated the matter of Fang Cai again, only mentioning that Gui Shao was the person of Concubine De, and did not say anything about what the guards said.

Jia Concubine took her slightly cool hand with concern, and said with pity: "You are also guilty, and I plan to thank you for saving your life last time, but since such a thing happened, you should go back earlier, and you must be careful when you enter the palace in the future." ”

"Thank you for your advice." Lin Jinwen only sighed slightly.

Seeing this, Concubine Jia didn't say much, patted her hand gently, and said with a wry smile: "Go back early, if such a terrible thing happened today, the Queen Mother will definitely investigate it strictly, and when the time comes, you don't have to be afraid, what you hear and what you see, just say it, if you don't hear it, you can't say a word, Mingzhe protects himself first, understand?" The masters in this harem have all fought for half their lives to survive to this day, and what they are best at is to kill people with knives, you must be careful. ”

Lin Jinwen looked at her sincere and gentle face, and suddenly understood why she looked so gentle, but the emperor didn't like her anymore.

She only smiled obediently, and then left with the palace maids.

She walked all the way to the gate of the palace, and stopped to look back, and when she saw that Jia Concubine was still standing there smiling softly at herself, she already knew the probable thing in her heart.

Out of the palace, Mo Feng saw that she was wet, and hurriedly greeted her: "Miss, what's wrong?" ”

Lin Jinwen shook her head slightly, and only said, "How is the situation outside the palace?" She didn't have an accurate judgment on this matter in the palace, so she didn't want to talk about it, and she even hoped that the gentle concubine was really gentle.

"Lord Liu pointed out that Mrs. Zheng was the mastermind behind the scenes, and now the Marquis of Dingnan has entered the palace to ask for a decree." Ink Wind Channel.

When Lin Jinwen heard this, she was sarcastic: "He is smart, he knows that Dingnanhou will not provoke the military department, so he took the opportunity to get rid of Zheng Lai, who has always had a disagreement with him, Zheng Lai is now the wall is also pushed by everyone, but as soon as he dies, his brother will be in danger."

Her face was gloomy, and she turned her head to go back to Xu's Mansion first, but Xu Chengqing came first.

Seeing her, he smiled in his eyes: "Follow me." ”

Lin Jinwen looked at the smile on the corner of his eyebrows, and her heart jumped suddenly: "Brother, he ......"

"Be quiet, fast." With that, he rode his horse and went on again.

Lin Jinwen couldn't wait to get into the carriage and follow him, and followed him around the capital for a long time, before finally stopping at the mouth of an alley that looked remote and shabby.

Xu Chengqing glanced at Mo Feng: "I'm tired of you guarding here." ”

Mo Feng bowed his head, and Xu Chengqing took Lin Jinwen inside.

Not long after leaving, Xu Chengqing stepped forward and knocked on the door, and there was a voice that Lin Jinwen was not unfamiliar with.

"But miss?"

"Ink flowers?" Lin Jinwen only knew that it was Mohua, but some time ago, Rimohua lost her trace when she stared at Zhao Kan, who was punished to Puji Temple, and she never thought that she would appear here!

When Mohua heard the voice, she immediately opened the door, and when she saw Lin Jinwen coming, she stepped forward to salute her.

Lin Jinwen looked at her, she was a lot darker, and she lost a lot of weight, and her big eyes were even more exciting.

"Miss, Childe is inside." She saw Lin Jinwen staring at her and said busily.

Lin Jinwen nodded, lifted her skirt and walked in quickly.

This courtyard is not big, and when you enter the door, there is a room, and Lin Jincheng is lying on the bed, her face is pale, as if she is asleep, but she breathes evenly.

Her tears fell suddenly, and the fear of this time was suddenly relieved.

"Big Brother ......"

"The son was injured, but the prince was rescued in time, and it was fine, but I was afraid that he would be in a coma for a while." Ink Flower Road.

"Lord Wang?" Lin Jinwen wiped away her tears and looked at her, and Mo Hua said the reason: "That day, the slave and maid followed the Xiong family who secretly connected with King Jing, because of the injury, fortunately they were taken in by a farmer, and after that, the slave and maid thought about continuing to chase the bear family, but just happened to hear them in a post station boasting about the plan to ambush the son at night, and the slave and maid quietly went to the rescue, fortunately, the prince made preparations early in the morning, otherwise, the slave and maid were afraid that they would not be able to come back to see the young lady." ”

Lin Jinwen knew the danger of the situation after listening to her few words, paused, and asked, "What about Lord Yuan?" ”

"Lord Yuan was also injured in order to save his son, but it was not serious, and he thought that he could not go to the southwest without one, so he only asked the slave maid to send his son back to recuperate first, so as to avoid the eyes and ears of those people." Ink Flower Road.

Xu Chengqing breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her, and then stepped forward and smiled: "The prince is pricking the wound in the back bread, go and have a look." ”

Lin Jinwen glanced at him who was smiling ambiguously, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, this cousin is so 'interesting'? However, he said that Zhao Huaiyan was also injured......

Lin Jinwen saw that there was still unused medicine on one side, and picked it up before going to the back.

Before she opened the bead curtain, Lin Jinwen smelled a strong smell of blood, and then saw that the man with his bare upper body was treating his wounds by himself, as if he had long been used to it.

"Here we are." Zhao Huaiyan didn't raise his head, and continued to use a knife to cut off the rotten part of the wound.

"Hmm." Lin Jinwen answered softly, her eyes slightly hot. Didn't he go to deal with the old ministry left by his father on the orders of the emperor, but he disobeyed the emperor's order to save his brother, and he was seriously injured like this.

Zhao Huaiyan heard the choking in her tone, and looked up at her gently: "Come and help me bandage." ”

Lin Jinwen naturally wouldn't refuse, and when she stepped forward, she saw the blood-red wound that he had slashed diagonally from his left shoulder to his abdomen, and the flesh turned out, which showed how painful it was.

Lin Jinwen quickly bandaged his wound with good medicine, and his eyes were already blurred by tears.

Zhao Huaiyan raised his eyebrows: "Aren't so many scars unsightly?" ”

"Huh?" Lin Jinwen didn't react for a while, Zhao Huaiyan pointed to his chest full of scars but muscles: "You don't look at it a few times, just stare at the wound." ”

Lin Jinwen raised her eyes to meet the tenderness in his eyes, tears burst out of her eyes at once, and she stepped forward to wrap her neck around him: "Thank you." ”

"I'm making you cry again." Zhao Huaiyan naturally raised his hand to wrap his arms around her waist, and sat on her lap.

Lin Jinwen buried her head in his shoulder socket and burst into tears and smiled: "When will the prince say love words like this." ”

Zhao Huaiyan rubbed her little head, and a smile appeared in her eyes: "Naturally, there are such words." It wasn't deliberate, but he felt in his heart that he blurted it out, and in that case, he felt that it was not enough to express one-ten-millionth of his love.

Lin Jinwen suddenly remembered the words of the previous queen, left from his shoulder socket, and met his eyes: "Why did the prince like me in his previous life?" In my previous life, I was cowardly and timid, even if I was later trying to ...... Later, if you become smart, you should just be a bad person in your eyes. ”

"You don't remember?" Zhao Huaiyan was next to her forehead, and the tip of her nose rubbed lightly on the tip of her nose: "I love you, just because you are you, sister-in-law, in my past life and this life, I only love you, and only you." ”

Lin Jinwen listened to his words, and something seemed to emerge in the depths of her memory, but even though she tried hard to recall, she still didn't remember until there was a knock on the door outside: "Lord, it's time to go." ”

Zhao Huaiyan kissed her lightly on the lips when Lin Jinwen didn't react, and said, "I'll leave first, I already know about Helian Jing looking for you, I'll come to find you later, believe me." ”

Before Lin Jinwen was about to speak, he had carefully put her to the side and rubbed her forehead before leaving quickly.

Lin Jinwen has a question mark in her head, does he know about Helian Jing? Isn't he going to the border and coming back later?

It wasn't until Zhao Huaiyan walked away that Xu Chengqing came from outside and said, "Jinwu, it's time to go." ”

"Hmm." Lin Jinwen nodded, and then walked out.

Xu Chengqing looked at her red eyes, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry for you, don't worry, my cousin will go to participate in the Spring Festival and strive for fame in the exam, whoever wants to bully my sister again, you have to ask me if I agree!" ”

Lin Jinwen looked at his complacent appearance and laughed lightly.

When she left, she looked at the sleeping Lin Jincheng and the guarding Mohua, and she was relieved and went out immediately.

Coming out of here, she felt a lot more settled.

The carriage ran for a while, and when it arrived at the downtown area, Mo Feng suddenly opened the curtain and came in, and said, "Miss, the carriage in front seems to be Miss Wang's." ”

"Ru Yan?" Lin Jinwen opened the curtain on the side and looked, isn't the carriage in front of her exactly where Wang Ruyan often sits, and looking in through the curtain, it was Wang Ruyan herself who was sitting upright.

"Miss, do you want to stop her? The slave maid looked at the direction she left as if it was Zengfu. ”

"Not necessarily." Lin Jinwen shook her head slightly, Ru Yan looked very calm, she must have wanted to go to Zeng's Mansion to do something.

After a pause, he said, "I remember that there is a teahouse not far from Zeng's mansion?" ”

Mo Feng bowed: "It is Zengfu's own industry." ”

"Go and book a private room." Lin Jinwen looked at Wang Ruyan's extremely calm appearance from a distance, and felt a little distressed, such a simple and kind person, but was designed by her biological brother.

Not long after, Lin Jinwen's carriage stopped at an inn 100 meters away from Zheng's mansion, but Wang Ruyan's carriage stopped at the gate of Zeng's mansion.

The people of the Zeng Mansion were very surprised when they saw her coming, and the housekeeper came to greet her in person, but they only apologized: "Miss Wang, my old man and lady have gone to the Zheng Mansion, do you want to ......" Yesterday was the boiling water spilled by the tavern of the Zheng Mansion, and today I naturally have to settle the account.

"I'll come and see Zeng Gongzi." Wang Ruyan lowered her eyes and said softly.

When the housekeeper heard this, he thought that he had heard it wrong, and he knew about the bastard thing that his son-in-law did, but since she was coming by herself, he didn't refuse.

smiled and said, "Miss Wang, please, it's rare that you still remember my son-in-law, if my son-in-law sees Miss you, he will definitely be half better." ”

Wang Ruyan listened to him chattering, only lowered her eyes and looked indifferent, until she arrived at Zeng Xuehai's room.

The housekeeper was very sensible, and deliberately opened all the subordinates, except for them in the room, and closed the door intimately.

Zeng Xuehai had been moaning in pain for a day, and there were big blisters all over his body, and he couldn't move at all, and his eyes were hot and painful in the slightest blink.

Zeng Xuehai was still cursing Zheng Lai, and when he saw Wang Ruyan coming, he immediately overjoyed: "Yan'er, you came to see me." ”

"yes, let's see if you're dead." Wang Ruyan slowly turned around and poured a cup of hot tea, remembering the despair and humiliation of that night, she still wanted to die, but before she died, these people had to die first.

Her eyes were slightly red, and she looked at him with a light smile: "Do you still want to marry me?" ”

"What do you want to do?" Zeng Xuehai saw her smile, suddenly felt panicked, and immediately threatened: "This is Zengfu, if you dare to do something to me, you will not have a good end, and your Wang family will not end well!" ”

Wang Ruyan didn't speak, only took out a packet of medicine from her sleeve, slowly mixed it in the hot tea, and waited until she was reconciled, then sat on the side of his bed, looked at him and smiled sadly: "Do you think I don't want to die?" ”

"You ......"

"Don't worry, I won't die, as long as you can live long enough, maybe I will marry you, and I won't bother my father." After speaking, he turned his head to look at him: "This is the medicine that makes you cut off your children and grandchildren, do you drink it yourself, or do I force you to drink it, and then let everyone know that you have become a eunuch who is neither male nor female?" ”

"Wang Ruyan, you ......"

"Shhhhh......h After speaking, she directly pulled off the hairpin on her head, endured tears and trembling, and put the hairpin on his neck: "I'll count three...... Three-two......"

"I'll drink!" Zeng Xuehai gritted his teeth, he knew that Wang Ruyan was crazy at this time, if he didn't drink it, she would really kill herself. I can't take a sip of medicine, spit it out later, and then ask the best doctor.

Wang Ruyan saw that he had drunk all the medicine, and then put the teacup on the side, but she really wanted to stab him with such a hairpin, kill him, and let him break his body into ten thousand pieces!

She knew she couldn't, she couldn't bother her father.

After feeding the medicine, she opened the door and came out, and when she saw Ye Ling waiting at the door early, she only planned to leave lightly, but she didn't want to suddenly hear the aunt next to her say: "It's really faceless and skinless, and I haven't married in yet, so I'm in a hurry to send it to the man's bed." ”

Ye Ling covered her lips and chuckled, looked at her with disgust, and said with a smile: "Sister, she is our lady in the future, don't you offend people by saying this." ”

"Offended? Hmph, she doesn't look for a mirror to look at what she looks like, and she can't get rid of the fact that she is only a broken shoe when she marries. As for the daughter of the Imperial History Mansion, I think it's similar to what I redeemed from the Fengyue Place. ”

Ye Ling smiled again, and the two sang and harmonized, humiliating Wang Ruyan worthless.

Wang Ruyan was also angry, trembling with anger, but she didn't argue with them, just walked away.

Seeing this, Ye Ling glanced at her back coldly and went to the room, and when she entered the door, she saw Zeng Xuehai crawling off the bed with one hand clasped in his throat, looking very hideous.

Ye Ling was stunned, Zeng Xuehai saw her and just wanted to shout at her, but her throat hurt badly, where did Wang Ruyan give him any medicine to cut off children and grandchildren, it was obviously dumb medicine.

Ye Ling came back to his senses and turned his head to call someone.

The aunt who was with her just now saw her running out in a hurry, and she didn't enter the room smartly, but hurriedly ran away with Ye Ling, and when they all left, Mo Feng, who was hiding in the dark place on the roof, sent the news back to Lin Jinwen, who was waiting in the private room: "The slave didn't see Miss Wang drugged with her own eyes, but she did it." ”

Lin Jinwen's heart sank slightly, and she could only shake her head slightly when she saw Wang Ruyan coming out of Zeng's mansion and getting into the carriage with red eyes: "She's too anxious." Zeng Xuehai is ruthless, he is not dead this time, and he will definitely find a way to retaliate. After that, he looked at the shadow of Ye Ling who was busy inside and outside not far away, and said: "Ye Ling is not right, and he will definitely take the opportunity to stay by Zeng Xuehai's side tonight to show his loyalty." ”

"So, Miss wants to ......"

"I've seen his pulse case, he has a serious ginseng allergy, tonight, I want you to bring ginseng soup to his mouth." Lin Jinwen wrinkled her eyebrows slightly.

Mo Feng looked at her seriously: "Miss, now so many people are staring at you, in case someone finds out......"

"No in case. It's true that someone is staring at me, but just because someone is staring, I can't let others be tied. Lin Jinwen glanced at her: "You don't have to do it yourself, Ye Ling is the best at these surface skills, you just need to do it in the process of her bringing the decoction over." ”

Hearing this, Mo Feng still nodded.

Lin Jinwen left the restaurant at this time, thinking that the old man and wife of the Zeng family were not there, and the gate of the Zheng Mansion must be very lively here.

Indeed, the current Zheng family is not only lively.

Zheng Jiaojiao insisted that she was framed by Zheng Ruyi, the Zeng family believed that they deliberately burned Zeng Xuehai, and Lord Liu also insisted that it was Mrs. Zheng who killed his son.

"Ruyi, you say this...... What should I do, your father is not here, and even Shangshu Mansion will wronged us. She was so frightened that her hand holding the teacup was trembling, and she just looked at her and said, "Why don't you go and ask His Royal Highness King Jing to save our Zheng Mansion." ”

"His Royal Highness King Jing has a lot of opportunities, where is he willing to help us?" Zheng Ruyi carefully played with the string of agarwood beads that Zhao Kan gave her on her wrist, saying that she could suppress the breath of the Gu worm in her body.

Sarcasm welled up at the corners of her mouth.

Old Madam Zheng didn't care about this, but said anxiously: "Then what should I do?" Looking at the situation outside, I'm afraid I'm going to arrest me and go to jail, Ruyi, my grandmother is old, and she can't stand this toss and can't afford to lose this face. ”

"I have a solution, but I don't know if my grandmother wants to." Her eyes were slightly cold, and with the force of her hand, the strings of agarwood were broken, and the beads crackled and scattered all over the ground.

Mrs. Zheng also rushed to the hospital, and hurriedly asked, "What method?" ”

Zheng Ruyi's eyes dimmed slightly, and he said in a low voice: "Admit that you did all this, but you were forced by someone." ”

"This ...... How can it be ......"

"Don't worry, as long as you name it, I'll take care of the rest." Zheng Ruyi looked at her and smiled.

Old Madam Zheng hesitated to look at her, but the noise outside was getting louder and louder, and she couldn't care much, so she hurriedly asked, "Who?" ”

"Lin Jinwen!"
