Chapter 50: Helpless
When Mrs. Hou saw Lin Jinwen walking towards her, she hurriedly greeted her, and said with concern: "Are you okay?" You don't have to worry about your father and brother, at least you're still there, aren't you? As soon as she thought of King Ning's appearance, she felt even more that she wanted to win over Lin Jinwen, she was blessed, and King Ning liked it so much, maybe that position was King Ning sitting in the future, and she also jumped into a phoenix.
"Thank you Mrs. Hou for your enlightenment, Jin Wu understands. Thank you Mrs. Hou for coming to help today, if there is an opportunity in the future, Jin Wu will definitely repay her. Lin Jinwen looked at her deeply, and did not pierce it, but only gratefully. She also knew in her heart why Mrs. Hou would come over to help, but on the surface, they pretended not to know each other in order to maximize their interests.
When Mrs. Hou heard this, she smiled more and more happily. Suddenly remembered something, turned his head and looked at the maid beside him: "The post you prepared, can you bring it?" β
"Yes." The maid hurriedly presented a famous post, and Mrs. Hou gave Lin Jinwen with a smile: "In two months, Hou Ye's younger brother will also participate in the Spring Festival, and then the house will invite talented and beautiful people in the capital to gather to enjoy poetry and painting. After all, you will become a princess in the future, and you will have to deal with these circles. "And the more people you know, the easier it is to get things done.
Lin Jinwen knew her kindness, responded with a smile, and asked a few more questions about the child in her belly, and then sent her to the carriage.
When Mrs. Hou's carriage left, she also deliberately lifted the curtain to look at Lin Jinwen, but the fifteen-year-old girl, when she encountered such a major event, she didn't see how panicked she was from beginning to end, let alone crying and shouting to beg for help, her heart was really tough.
The carriage drove slowly, she smiled and beckoned to Lin Jinwen, and then sat back in the carriage.
The maid next to her cushioned her lower back, and when she saw that she looked good, she asked with a smile; "Madame likes this Seventh Miss very much."
"People are beautiful and good-natured, and the most important thing is that they are very blessed, I like it." Mrs. Hou smiled lightly, besides, Lin Jinwen is so valued by King Ning, as long as King Ning does not fall, she will have the opportunity to become the master of the Middle Palace, and she is now good friends with her, so how much affection will it have in the future? Thinking like this, she said again: "I just listened to Lin Luzhi's meaning, they want to separate from the old lady of the Lin family?" β
"Yes, yes."
"I remember that Sanfang didn't have much property under him, and he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to find a suitable place to live for a while. I have a five-entry mansion under my name, not far from King Ning's mansion, and you will take the deed and send it when you go back in a while. She laughed.
When the maid heard this, she looked at her in surprise: "Madam, the courtyard of the five entrances is not cheap......
Mrs. Hou glanced at her: "What do you know, this small courtyard is changed for smooth and safe future." Then she said that, and went back in the carriage.
Lin Jinwen waited for her carriage to turn around the alley, and then turned around and walked towards the Dali Temple.
Zhao Huaiyan was telling Gao Yu what he was ordering, and when he saw her coming, he said softly: "What's wrong?" β
"I want to meet Master Yuan." She said.
Lord Yuan has been dragged to the prison to be tortured at this moment, Zhao Huaiyan heard this, and got up: "I'll go with you." β
Lin Jinwen saw that his eyes were full of anxiety, and she didn't refuse.
Zhao Huaiyan walked in front to lead the way, Lin Jinwen followed behind, and the officials could only follow from afar.
When she walked to the dark place, Zhao Huaiyan naturally took her hand: "My father is old and suspicious, but at least General Lin's life has been saved, and the Lin Mansion cannot move again for the time being." β
Lin Jinwen could feel his worry, he was afraid that he would hate the emperor and hate him.
She only smiled faintly: "I understand." β
Zhao Huaiyan squeezed her hand and tightened it slightly. Her hands are so small, but her delicate and delicate skin is very cold, and she puts it in her palm, just enough to wrap it.
The two walked in silence for a while, and it wasn't until the thick bloody breath came that Zhao Huaiyan naturally let go of her hand.
Lord Yuan was tied to the crosspost, the person who moved the torture was very neat, the two pipa bones had already been pierced, and after only a few whips, the person had only one breath left.
Zhao Huaiyan looked at the yacha next to him, the yacha understood, and hurriedly brought a basin of cold water to wake up Lord Yuan, Lin Jinwen stepped forward and said coldly: "I'm here, I have a few questions I want to ask my lord." β
"I don't know anything......"
"Don't you care about the life and death of the embroidery girl? I heard that adults married a wife, and I don't care? She asked indifferently.
Lord Yuan was stunned and stared at her: "They have nothing to do with this matter......
"What does the Lord have to do with this? Do you have to get involved? Lin Jinwen's face became colder and colder, he himself dragged his relatives into such a dangerous place, and now he knew that he was shouting.
"I ......" his eyes were red, and he stared at him deadly: "I have not committed a capital crime, you can punish me, but you cannot kill me." β
"It seems that adults haven't learned enough from Prime Minister Xiong, and you haven't learned anything about the crime you want to add." Lin Jinwen looked at him coldly.
Lord Yuan was speechless for a long time, opened his mouth, and looked at her with his lips closed: "Miss Lin, you are still Yunying's unmarried woman, how can you be so vicious...... He is really strange, such a woman should be the best to control, but it has become the biggest trouble, especially King Ning on the side saw it in his eyes, and he didn't mind at all.
The corners of Lin Jin's mouth were indifferent: "When my family is dying and dying, adults ask me to treat you and your family well, do you think it's possible?" β
"But women are three from four virtues ......"
"What about a man's propriety and shame? Adults have been reading for decades, how much do you remember now? Lin Jinwen replied to him mercilessly.
The officials on the side were dumbfounded when they heard it, and it was the first time that a woman said that she did not abide by the three obedience and four virtues so justifiably, and it was impossible to refute it.
They looked at King Ning, who was standing silently beside Lin Jin's wife, and quietly retreated, and only the three of them were left in the cell in an instant.
"This king remembers that Lord Yuan was a Jinshi ten years ago, and he already had a wife and a young wife in the family back then, and then married his current wife in order to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix." He looked at him lightly: "Now that this king can find out the news, it is impossible for King Jing not to find out, and this king and Miss Seven have not gone out for a long time to interrogate here, will King Jing think that Lord Yuan is gritting his teeth and being tortured, or has he already confessed it to save his life?" β
As soon as he said this, not only Lord Yuan, but even Lin Jinwen was surprised, in just one day now, he even found out this!
"His Royal Highness King Ning, you ......"
"Say it as soon as you can, and this king may be able to save your family." Lord Yuan has been exposed, and with Zhao Kan's temperament, even if he lets Lord Yuan out this time, he will be killed.
Lord Yuan's heart sank suddenly, and he looked at Lin Jinwen and King Ning, and he didn't know whether to believe them or not.
"I only want to ask you one thing, who else is there who is inclined to King Jing in the court?" Lin Jinwen asked.
When Lord Yuan heard this question, his face turned a little pale: "Even if the lower officials know, they will never say it, and they will not say it when they die." "If you say it, the Yuan family will really be finished.
Lin Jinwen was about to step forward, but Zhao Huaiyan grabbed her: "That's it." After that, he called the yacha again: "Lord Yuan has received the punishment, send him back to the house." β
Lord Yuan was also stunned, but looked at him suspiciously: "Lord Wang, what else do you want to do?" Xia Guan didn't know anything and wouldn't say anything. β
"This king just wants you to see the truth clearly, and also to remind others." He said lightly, looked at Lin Jinwen, Lin Jinwen also understood, Lord Yuan was still alive and went out from here, and Zhao Kan would definitely not let him go.
Lord Yuan was taken away like this, and he still didn't understand why they would let him go so easily. Out of Dali Temple, he didn't think about it and said: "Quick, go to the embroidery building!" β
The coachman whipped his whip hard, and the horse hurried towards the embroidery building.
Zhao Huaiyan looked at the unwilling Lin Jinwen, and her thin lips hooked slightly: "You are too anxious." β
"I'm worried that if I slow down, things will get more and more out of control." The thought of so many enemies in the shadows made her heart tremble. The nightmare of her previous life was still haunted in her mind, and she would dream of it night and night, and she didn't want to experience such heart-rending pain again. Just as she was caught up in her own thoughts, her face was warm, and Zhao Huaiyan's hand gently lifted the hair between her ears for her at some point, and held her cold face: "The previous life was a nightmare, it has passed, and those things will not happen again." β
Lin Jinwen lowered her eyes and did not speak.
Seeing her like this, Zhao Huaiyan only sighed slightly: "The forces behind Concubine De, except for the Xiong family, there are other people, otherwise how could they have won the throne so easily in their previous life, even if they are the father, they have to be scruples." β
Lin Jinwen only felt frustrated, it turned out that she had done so much, and what she saw was only the tip of the iceberg.
Just thinking about it, Gao Yu outside had already come, and stood far away to salute: "Lord Wang, King Jing's people have already begun to move." β
"Hmm." Zhao Huaiyan bowed his head lightly, Lin Jinwen saw him so bothered, her heart was a lot more steady, she looked up at him, and smiled lightly: "Thank you." "He treats each other with sincerity, how can she not see it.
"I heard that your embroidery skills are good, and this king lacks a few commonly used handkerchiefs."
Lin Jinwen was dumbfounded, this person was always so polite.
She smiled and looked up at his smiling eyes, relieved.
Returning to the Lin Mansion from Dali Temple, Lin Jinwen has already carefully calculated in her heart, it is absolutely impossible to let her wait, since she has not mastered it enough now, then find a way to master it!
Before stepping into the door of the Lin Mansion, Mo Xue greeted her: "Miss, the embroidery lady is safe and sound, and the severed hand sent is the dead person I found." She was a little worried about Lin Jinwen's punishment.
Lin Jinwen smiled lightly: "I know you can't do it, it's okay." "That embroiderer is also innocent, she didn't plan to do anything to her in the first place.
She planned to go back to Xiayuan first, and then see how to arrange the move, but when she arrived at the gate of the courtyard, she saw that the things inside were thrown out, and the girls stood with each other looking at each other and did not dare to make a sound.
Mother Yang was still arguing with others in front: "Even if the third room is going to move out, it is not this time, how can the old lady be so aggressive?" β
The mother-in-law inside was also helpless: "Mother Yang, the slave is also helpless, you can understand." After that, Shen Sheng scolded the little guy inside: "Move faster, keep all the things in the Lin Mansion, and throw out all the things of Miss Seven!" β
"You-" Mother Yang was upright, so she could only quickly pick up the things that were thrown out, but they didn't throw away the expensive things, and threw away some calligraphy, paintings, and clothes.
Bai Lan sat on the side guarding Cai'er, who was still unable to move, and when she saw Lin Jin's wife coming back, she stepped forward with red eyes and said, "Miss, what can I do about this......"
Lin Jinwen is a little funny, the old lady is so ruthless, I'm afraid it's because my father said something in front of her today. But although this is the General's Mansion, Daddy will never be willing to drive the old lady out like this.
She paused, thinking that she had asked Lao Liuzhi to set up a few small courtyards before, but she could choose a temporary residence, but before she could speak, someone from the Dingnan Hou Mansion came over and handed over a deed to the five-entry mansion.
The maid looked at her with a smile: "My wife said that this courtyard is for Miss Seven, and it is not far from King Ning's Mansion, please don't mind." β
When the mother-in-law who threw things inside heard this, she hurriedly turned around and was about to send someone to inform the old lady, but she heard Lin Jinwen say: "You don't need to inform the old lady, I can't ask for this yard." "If you want this house, it is equivalent to owing the Hou Mansion a big favor, and if you can't afford it in the future, you will be hateful.
She looked at the maid with a puzzled face, and then smiled: "My father was just cut of his military power, if the Hou Mansion sent the courtyard here, wouldn't it make people think that the Hou Ye was helping his father?" Although the emperor is sage, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no people with intentions to provoke, but it will implicate the Hou Mansion. β
When the maid heard this, she didn't know what to do, and immediately took back the deed: "Then the slave maid went back to Mrs. Hou?" β
"Go ahead." Lin Jinwen said with a smile.
Seeing that she was so thoughtful, the maid also understood why Mrs. Hou liked her, and looked behind her with a smile, before saying, "Miss Lin is also the future Princess Ning, and now Lin Gongzi is a third-class powerful general." Those who dare to be disrespectful, let's see if they can afford to provoke a mighty general, or Lord Ning. "There are some things that Lin Jinwen is not easy to say, she is convenient as an outsider, and now she is happy to sell this favor.
Lin Jinwen glanced at her gratefully, and then she bowed and left.
The people in Luoxia Garden glanced at each other, and the movements of their hands were also a little hesitant.
Mother Yang came over, looked at her and said, "Miss, we didn't prepare anything, and it's getting late, so people can see it, and we have to say that we did something bad and were kicked out......
"It doesn't matter." Lin Jinwen didn't worry about this, she just glanced at Mo Xue on the side: "Go and get the register of all the gold and silver jewelry and items, in this Lin Mansion, but everything in my third room, whether it is in the old lady's room or the eldest lady's room, take it all back." β
Mo Xue responded, and went to Luoxia Garden first, and the woman wanted to stop her, but Mo Xue kicked the person away.
"You dare to ...... This is the old lady's order......"
"What does the old lady command? Do you want to detain my lady's things? Mother Yang said coldly.
The mother-in-law gritted her teeth slightly, and only stared at Lin Jinwen: "If you have the ability, Miss Seven will kill the slave maid, otherwise nothing here is allowed to be taken away!" β
Lin Jinwen felt more and more funny, and looked at Mother Yang: "Tie it up and throw it to the old lady." I want to see if the old lady really doesn't want this old face and comes to grab things from her granddaughter. β
The mother-in-law was dumbfounded, and Mother Yang was not ambiguous, and immediately dragged the person away.
With Mo Xue there, the things were quickly taken out, and then he went to pick up Lin Luzhi and Lin Jincheng.
The old lady didn't dare to bully the two of them, their side was peaceful, but after Lin Luzhi knew what happened to Luoxiayuan, he was so angry that he coughed for a long time.
In the middle of the night, a few people rested in the small courtyard of Erjin, two streets away from the Lin Mansion, although it was not as big as the Lin Mansion, it also looked dilapidated, but it was quite elegant.
There weren't many people who brought in, but they quickly cleaned up the room and settled everyone down.
When the old lady learned that not only did they sleep on the streets, but also that Mrs. Hou had sent her to the house, she was so angry that her old face turned blue.
The eldest lady on the side took a sip of ginseng tea, and saw that she was so irritable and impatient, so she said: "Mother, don't worry, now that the second brother's bones are not cold, and Zisu has been thrown into a mass grave again, you should think about what to do about this." β
"What else do you say?" The old lady also had no tricks, she thought that the old patriarch could suppress the third room, but she was directly driven away by Lin Jinwen; originally thought that King Jing would be able to get rid of the three rooms, but who knew that he didn't get rid of them, and the three rooms were completely out of her control.
After thinking about it, she suddenly said, "What about the jade?" Can she ......?"
"Mother, what do you think, Xiyu is staying in King Jing's Mansion obediently now, and she can't make the same mistake as Zisu again. Murder of her biological father, I don't know who taught it......" She pursed her lips, but it was an allusion to the Ye family.
The old lady also thought of the Ye family, and sat down with an old face and said in a deep voice: "Unfilial things, she deserves to be thrown into a mass grave!" β
After thinking about it, the old lady didn't think of a way, looked at the absent-minded eldest lady, her face became even heavier, and she quickly sent her away.
As soon as the people left, she could only grit her teeth with hatred: "If there is a way, I will definitely peel off the skin of those people in the third room and burn them to death." β
When the mother-in-law next to her heard this, they all lowered their heads and did not dare to make a sound.
The eldest lady, who had not gone far from the house, was glad to hear this, and she looked back at the old lady's closed door, and then walked out of the house, where someone was waiting for her.
"I've said everything I need to say, whether I can do it or not depends on you." She looked at the carriageway in front of her.
The person in the carriage responded, and then said: "Don't worry, eldest lady, soon Miss Lin will be the rightful concubine of King Jing." β
The eldest lady was overjoyed, and smiled at her gratefully, "Thank you so much." β
"But ......" The red lips of the people inside raised: "To get rid of the Lin family's three rooms, Lin Luzhi is not the key, the most important thing is Lin Jinwen and Lin Jincheng's brothers and sisters, do you understand?" β
"Don't worry." The eldest lady rolled her eyes, and then said quietly: "In a few days, it will be the Shangyuan Festival, and then their brothers and sisters will definitely go to their mother's incense, and I will arrange it well then." β
"That's good." The people in the carriage should get down, and without further ado, they just let the carriage go. When the wind blew the curtain, the delicate phoenix bracelet on the wrist was revealed, which made people dazzled.
The eldest lady's heart fell back into her stomach, folded her hands and recited a few words of Amitabha, and then she hurriedly went back.
When I walked to the gate, I saw the old man's people looking around, and said unhappily: "What are you looking at, the old man hasn't come back yet?" β
The little guy hurriedly shrunk his neck and didn't dare to speak.
The eldest lady gritted her teeth, secretly scolded something useless, and didn't care much about leaving.
Seeing this, the little guy slipped out quietly.
After a night, Lin Jinwen woke up in the morning, and the thought of never having to see the old lady again made her feel a lot more comfortable.
Mo Feng prepared breakfast, and Lin Jinwen also directly asked people to carry it to Lin Luzhi's room.
Lin Luzhi's injuries were very serious, and he was angry again yesterday, and the wound was already infected, and he didn't wake up until the morning.
Lin Jinwen looked at the gray-haired person lying on the bed, and felt a little distressed, yesterday my father was still a general who could go into battle to kill the enemy, but today he is really just a dying old man.
She stepped forward to check her pulse and prescribed her own medicine before she withdrew from the room.
Before I went to see Lin Jincheng, news came that Wang Ruyan was here.
Lin Jinwen personally came to the second gate to greet her, and saw her anxious face from a distance, and the maid who followed behind her carried a lot of things.
Wang Ruyan saw Lin Jinwen coming, so she hurriedly ran over with her skirt and said, "Jinwen, are you okay, I was frightened when I heard about you yesterday, but I couldn't help you." She blamed herself.
Lin Jinwen smiled lightly: "I'm fine, it's just that my brother is seriously injured." β
"Really?" Wang Ruyan's heart was in her throat.
Lin Jinwen nodded, described the wound in detail, and saw that her distressed apricot eyes were full of tears, and then smiled: "I was just going to take a look, do you want to go with me?" β
Wang Ruyan nodded hurriedly, but was gently pulled down by the maid behind her: "Miss, men and women don't kiss." β
"But ......"
"I'm here, you're waiting in the compartment." Lin Jinwen smiled lightly, it seems that it would be good if she was her sister-in-law.
The two walked towards Lin Jincheng's courtyard together.
The yard is not big, and the diligent little maid is cleaned up in the morning, and the trees in the yard are also built, and the whole yard is filled with the smell of grass.
Entering the room, Wang Ruyan waited in the compartment, but kept looking inside through the bead curtain. The former handsome and gentle man was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, his face pale, as if he had lost a lot of weight.
Seeing this, the maid on the side sighed before pulling her and said, "Miss, you take the initiative so much, you will be laughed at if you spread it." β
Wang Ruyan's face turned slightly red, and she glanced at her with disgust: "Little girl, don't talk nonsense." β
Lin Jinwen smiled when she heard their whispers. After taking the pulse, he was also infected, and the same prescription was prescribed, so he withdrew.
When Wang Ruyan saw her come out, she hurriedly asked, "Is there a big problem?" β
"It's serious." Lin Jinwen frowned and deliberately teased her: "If no one serves her carefully, I'm just afraid of ...... Hey......"
"This ...... This ......" Wang Ruyan was so anxious: "Then you hurry up and arrange some people, I ...... I ......"
"Miss!" The maid sensed her thoughts and hurriedly called out to her.
Wang Ruyan glared at the maid, and then looked at Lin Jinwen: "I come to see him every day, and you are here, so it will be fine." β
Lin Jinwen saw that she was sincere, but she was happy for her brother, there are not many such good girls now.
While the two were saying this, they arrived at the middle courtyard, and before they could sit down, they saw someone report that the eldest lady had come with Zheng Ruyi.
The two glanced at each other, and before Lin Jinwen could speak, the eldest lady had already walked quickly, Zheng Ruyi was beside her, wearing a plain long skirt, with only light makeup on her face, looking a lot more plain, and her face was also worried.
"What about Lin Gongzi?" She said as soon as she came.
Lin Jinwen was about to speak, when she saw the eldest lady pointing to the maid on the side and said, "What are you still doing in a daze, take Miss Zheng to see the third son." β
Lin Jinwen's face sank slightly, and she said coldly: "What is the eldest aunt doing?" Men and women don't kiss, won't you ruin your brother's reputation like this? β
What she said was ruining Lin Jincheng's reputation, which made Zheng Ruyi's face turn a little pale, and then she said: "Miss Seven, I know you have complaints about me, but at this time, I have to see Jincheng no matter what, he is so seriously injured, how can I rest assured." I knelt in the temple for a day yesterday and prayed to the Bodhisattva to bless him, so please let me meet him today. β
When Zheng Ruyi said this, she portrayed herself as an infatuated woman, regardless of her reputation or decency.
Wang Ruyan secretly clenched her palms, stepped forward for the first time and said, "Lin Gongzi is resting, and it is inconvenient to see people." β
"Miss Wang is not the master of the Lin family, how can she say these words?" Zheng Ruyi pretended to be surprised, looking like Wang Ruyan was shameless.
Wang Ruyan's face turned red, and the eldest lady also took the opportunity to say: "Miss Wang, they all say that the Wang family is very strict, if your words are spread, people will mistakenly think that you and my family Jincheng have something." "She is not afraid of offending the Wang family now, and she doesn't have to think about marrying the Wang family anymore.
Wang Ruyan's eyes were red, and she didn't know what to say.
Lin Jinwen only looked at the eldest lady and said in a deep voice: "The eldest aunt has time, why don't you think more about how to rescue the second brother from the prison." Miss Zheng is infatuated, but the flowers are intentional, but the heart of the flowing water is not in you, so self-inflicted, isn't it ruining her reputation? β
She could have maintained a superficial politeness when she spoke, but she couldn't bully Wang Ruyan, she was her future sister-in-law.
Zheng Ruyi was not as petty as Wang Ruyan, and when she heard this, she only bit her lip slightly and said pitifully: "The Lin and Zheng families have already made a marriage contract, how can Miss Seven insult me like this?" β
"Make a marriage contract?" Lin Jin's heart sank, and she went to look at the eldest lady coldly, but the eldest lady only said innocently: "This morning, the old lady and the old lady Zheng made a decision, exchanged eight characters, and got hired." β
"Why does the old lady ......?"
"She is Jincheng's own grandmother, and Concubine De was very happy when she found out about this, and she specially ordered the household servant to announce the marriage between Miss Zheng and Jincheng, and now the whole capital knows about it." The eldest lady added. After speaking, his eyes quietly glanced at the small but clean yard, and he was secretly jealous, thinking that these were all Lin Jin's mother's dowries, and she didn't have these when she got married.
Lin Jin's palms trembled slightly with anger, and there was news outside that Concubine De was here in person.
Lin Jinwen only felt that the emperor was really conniving at Concubine De, and ordinary concubines might not be able to leave the palace for more than ten years, but Concubine De seemed to be able to come out if she wanted to.
As soon as she entered, dozens of palace maids and eunuchs followed, with great pomp and circumstance, and the eldest lady's eyes lit up.
Concubine De was wearing a lake-blue dress today, and her face was covered with a thick layer of fat powder, but she couldn't hide the sagging eye bags and bloodshot eyes, Lin Jinwen knew that it was probably Xiong Shuli's punishment.
Lin Jinwen curtsied and saluted, and only said: "My father and brother are unconscious, but I am afraid that I will not be able to come out to greet them." β
"It doesn't matter." She said lightly and glanced at Zheng Ruyi: "Miss Zheng, why are you still here?" Since Lin Sangongzi is unconscious, you, your fiancΓ©e, should also go and take a look. β
"Yes." Zheng Ruyi glanced at Lin Jinwen and said apologetically: "I know that Miss Seven doesn't like me, but if there is anything bad, I will definitely change it." With that, he saluted her, and then followed.
Lin Jinwen's palms clenched slightly, and she looked at Concubine De: "I don't know if Niangniang is here......"
"It's nothing else, it's just that Concubine Ben heard that you know how to heal, and it just so happens that Concubine Ben is not feeling well, so you come to prescribe medicine for Concubine Ben to check her pulse." She glanced at her and walked straight past her to the main hall.
The eldest lady hurriedly followed behind, and when the people left, Wang Ruyan said in a low voice: "Jinwu, don't be afraid, I'll call my mother over." β
Lin Jinwen glanced at her gratefully, and then stepped in.
Concubine De came prepared this time, most likely to vent her anger for Xiong Shuli and Zhao Kan.
Lin Jinwen followed up, and Concubine De had already stretched out her arm: "Let's take the pulse." β
"Courtiers are sparse and shallow......"
"Let you take the pulse!" Concubine De rebuked in a cold voice.
After she finished speaking, two eunuchs immediately came over to press her, Lin Jinwen gritted her teeth slightly, and stepped forward.
Her hand caught her pulse, and the palace maid beside Concubine De suddenly raised her hand and hit her in the face.
Lin Jinwen had already taken precautions, raised her hand and pinched her wrist, stopped her pulse, and smiled lightly: "This sister is infected with the epidemic, and she is still serving by Concubine De's side, it's really damned." β
"You ββ!" The palace maid didn't expect her to bite back, and hurriedly looked at Concubine De: "Niangniang, the slave maid is not infected with any epidemic." β
Concubine De naturally didn't believe it, so she only snorted coldly: "Lin Jinwen, Concubine Ben asked you to take the pulse for Concubine Ben, what do you do with a palace maid?" Don't you look down on this concubine! β
"The courtiers don't dare." Lin Jinwen knew that she was deliberately picking on thorns, and her attitude was also very respectful, but Concubine De came to find fault today.
"Don't dare? This concubine sees that you are very bold, come to someone, and slap your mouth for thirty! Concubine De glanced at her and scolded directly.
Fang was grabbed by Lin Jin's arm, the palace maid was the first to step forward and hold her, and two little eunuchs stepped forward, and without saying a word, they wanted to pull her back.
Seeing this, Mo Xue stepped forward directly, but was scolded by Lin Jinwen: "Stand down!" β
"Miss......"
"Stand down!" Concubine De is now worried that she can't catch King Ning's handle, and she dares to do something with her people, she doesn't care about it now, and she doesn't know what kind of trouble she wants to cause.
Mo Xue gritted her teeth, looked at Concubine De, and stepped forward to salute: "Please also ask Concubine De to look at the prince's face, don't do anything." β
Concubine De sneered lightly: "What are you, dare to come to Concubine Ben to intercede?" The concubine still wants to do it today. After that, he pointed at Mo Xue and said, "Hit her first, and slap her mouth sixty." β
Those people immediately let go of Lin Jinwen and pressed Mo Xue, who gritted her teeth and did not resist.
The person who did it had enough strength to open the bow left and right, and after only twenty slaps, Mo Xuexue's white and tender face was already swollen, and his mouth was full of blood.
Lin Jinwen gritted her teeth, raised her eyes and looked at Concubine De and said coldly: "Niangniang didn't come to see a doctor today, but because of the prime minister's accident, she was angry with the courtiers." β
"You think you're smart?" Concubine De became more and more dissatisfied, and glanced at Mo Xue: "Add another twenty." β
When the palace maid heard this, her hand became heavier and heavier, and she slapped the applause on the face, and after a while, blood was splashed.
Concubine De saw that even though Lin Jinwen was angry, she looked helpless, so she raised the corners of her lips: "People who dare to go against this concubine are rare in this world, and even the queen wants to give me three points." You are so good, you dare to calculate people to insult Lin Zisu and lose my Kan'er's face. She glanced coldly at the eldest lady on the side.
Lin Jinwen knew that the eldest lady must have betrayed herself to curry favor with Concubine De.
She gritted her teeth slightly, and only looked at Concubine De: "The courtiers know that they are stupid, and they don't know what the mother is talking about." β
When the eldest lady heard this, she was in a hurry, and hurriedly pointed at her: "Jin's wife, you didn't say this to me and Xiyu that day......
Concubine De glanced at her dissatisfied, and then looked at Lin Jinwen: "Whether you know it or not, as long as Concubine Ben knows it in her heart." Dare to fight with Ben Fei, Ben Fei will let you know the end! After that, he scolded outside: "Come on, tell me to go down, and wait for the third master of the Lin family to return to the Lin Mansion to rest on the same day." How can mother and son have an overnight feud, if they are sick, they naturally have to rest at home. β
"Mother's ......"
Lin Jinwen was about to speak, but was interrupted by Concubine De, she looked at the eldest lady: "Concubine Ben heard that your cousin is gentle and beautiful, and it happened that Lin Lu lost his wife, so Concubine Ben made this lord and gave them a marriage?" β
The eldest lady had this idea before, and she didn't fight this idea anymore after the third room was down, but she didn't know how Concubine De knew, and she couldn't refuse, so she nodded with an embarrassed smile, but her dissatisfaction was sprinkled on Lin Jinwen: "Jin's wife, don't you thank you yet?" β
Lin Jinwen suppressed all the anger in her heart, even though the nails hanging down her sleeves pinched into her palms, she still tried to maintain respect on her face: "The courtiers don't dare to make decisions for their father, and the courtiers who are kind to Concubine De are not qualified to thank her, and when her father wakes up, the courtiers will tell him and let him thank him personally." β
Seeing that she was not noisy or noisy, Concubine De only thought that she was planning in her heart, and saw that the palace maid next to her had finished slapping eighty times, and then said coldly: "Are you scared now?" β
"The courtiers have been terrified."
"Panic? Concubine Ben is afraid that you are bold and dare to get along with King Jing's Mansion, Lin Jinwen, do you think you have a few heads! As soon as Concubine De slapped the table, everyone immediately knelt down, but Lin Jinwen still stood obediently.
"The courtiers only have one head, but they are also the heads of the future daughter-in-law of the royal family, and they can't be easily dropped. The emperor loves Niangniang and tolerates Niangniang everywhere, but it does not mean that the emperor can watch the daughter of the great hero of the Jin Dynasty fall to the ground. She looked up at Concubine De. Her father was taken away from the military power, and she didn't believe that no one in the court complained about the emperor's rabbit and dead dog cooking, and the people were not blind, if she was killed for no reason, the emperor was afraid that he would take this opportunity to send Concubine De.
Concubine De also knows this truth in her heart, the emperor has always tolerated her, not because he loves her. But she held on to her face and snorted coldly: "Concubine Ben can't teach you a lesson!" Come on, give me a slap! β
After that, the palace maid who had just beaten her hand full of blood stepped forward and pushed Lin Jin's wife, and when she saw that someone held her down, she raised her hand and hit her in the face.
Bai Lan on the side looked at it, and rushed out to block Lin Jinwen regardless of it.
"There are those who dare to stop it, drag it down and hit thirty boards." Concubine De sneered.
Lin Jinwen's face became more and more heavy, staring at Concubine De who was sitting at the top, if she didn't die this time, she would make you regret it!
She glanced at Mother Yang and Mo Feng, who were still about to come up, and said coldly: "No one is allowed to move again." β
The palace maid snorted coldly, and the fierce slap fell, snapping, mercilessly!
Lin Jinwen could feel the hot pain and humiliation on her face, but she couldn't help but make no sound.
The palace maid frowned, stared at her delicate little face, and snorted lightly: "I don't know if His Royal Highness King Ning still likes your face...... " After saying that, she raised her hand and slapped it again.
But this time, before the slap hit her face, she felt a pain in her wrist, and then she found that her hand was gone, and blood gushed out from the fracture.
"Whether this king likes it or not, it's your turn to interject!"
The cold and hoarse male voice came, and Mother Yang, who was tense on the side, finally breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "Lord Wang, please save Miss quickly!" β
Concubine De looked at Zhao Huaiyan, who was dressed in a red python robe, and frowned slightly, wasn't he left in the palace by the emperor? But since the person came, she would not show weakness, and only sneered: "Why, King Ning didn't take this concubine in his eyes." β
"How dare you, Concubine De is Concubine De after all." Zhao Huaiyan said lightly, then looked at Lin Jinwen's slightly red eyes, stepped forward and asked, "Where else is it hurt?" β
Lin Jinwen frowned slightly when she saw him in the dust, she had dragged him down these few times, she really didn't like this feeling.
"I'm fine, it's just Mo Xue......" She glanced at Mo Xue who was holding on, her cheeks had already been broken, and blood flowed.
She clenched her palms tightly and didn't speak again, this feeling of being controlled and helpless was really terrible. Zhao Huaiyan is right, she is anxious and too soft-handed.
Seeing her like this, Concubine De became more and more sarcastic: "Why, Miss Lin is dissatisfied with Concubine Ben's punishment?" β
Zhao Huaiyan was about to speak, but Lin Jinwen looked at her lightly, with no fear on her face: "The courtiers don't dare." Concubine De Niangniang cares so much about the courtiers, not only for the brother to match the marriage, but also care about the father's marriage, the courtiers are too late to be grateful, and so busy these days, must be grateful for the grace of Concubine De's teaching. β
When Concubine De heard this, she always felt that it was a threat, but the person in front of her smiled and smiled, and she couldn't see any anger and hatred.
The palace maid who had her hand cut off on the ground turned pale, and knelt down in front of Concubine De to ask for help: "Niangniang......"
"Dare to make decisions for this king without authorization, is it difficult to teach the concubine?" Zhao Huaiyan asked in a cold voice.
The palace maid looked at Concubine De, and Concubine De only frowned: "Huaiyan, are you going to get along with Concubine Ben?" β
"The retainers don't dare, but if the subordinates don't do it right, they will be punished, which is what the mother just taught." After that, he glanced at Gao Yu behind him: "Take people out and put them to death." β
"Yes!" Gao Yu immediately responded, dragged people and left.
Concubine De's face turned slightly pale: "It's the concubine's person, you dare!" β
Zhao Huaiyan's face was indifferent: "Niangniang thinks it's wrong, but you can ask your father to decide." β
"Good! What a Zhao Huaiyan! Concubine De glanced at Lin Jin's daughter-in-law, and coldly hooked the corners of her mouth: "For a woman, she can actually attack the concubine's people, it seems that she was fascinated by the demon girl, and I am afraid that your marriage is not appropriate, and the concubine will go to report to the emperor, King Ning, a pillar of the country, how can a demon girl be delayed." β
Concubine De thought that after saying this, King Ning and Lin Jinwen would definitely start to be afraid, but Zhao Huaiyan leaned to the side and said directly: "Niangniang, please." β
Concubine De's face was green, and she didn't stay, and she felt that she came here on purpose today, and she hadn't punished Lin Jinwen too unwillingly.
He only turned his head to look at Lin Jinwen, and said coldly: "Miss Lin, what do you think?" β
"The father and brother of the courtiers are seriously ill, since the father's marriage can be the master, the courtier's daughter also asks the mother to take the idea. The courtiers were timid and did not dare to disobey. She stood to the side with her eyes downcast.
Concubine De was really so angry with the two of them that she bit her silver teeth, and glared coldly, the eldest lady who didn't dare to squeak when she saw Zhao Huaiyan coming, walked straight away.
As soon as she left, the eldest lady also wanted to follow, but was stopped by Lin Jinwen: "When does the eldest aunt think we should move back to the Lin Mansion?" β
The eldest lady looked at her with a pair of cold eyes, and said with a smile: "Jinwen, this matter is not up to the eldest aunt, you have to listen to Concubine De." β
"Okay, then please tell your grandmother that my father and brother are sick and can't move, and when they get better, we will go home immediately." She said coldly.
The eldest lady looked at her cold eyes, covered in hair, but tried to maintain the demeanor of a lady, only smiled and nodded, and then hurriedly left.
When they were all gone, Lin Jinwen looked at Mother Yang: "Go and 'please' Miss Zheng to leave!" β
Mother Yang hurriedly responded and took someone away.
Lin Jinwen glanced at the palace maid with a broken hand who was thrown down by Concubine De, and directly asked her to send Concubine De back in a carriage, and then she was busy asking Mo Feng to take people back to rest.
After everyone was arranged, she was about to go out directly, but was pulled by Zhao Huaiyan: "Jin's ......"
Lin Jinwen heard the worry in his tone, turned her head and smiled at him: "Don't worry, prince, I'm just going to see my brother and father." After that, he paused: "Lord Yuan is still alive?" β
Zhao Huaiyan saw that she didn't seem to be affected by Concubine De, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: "I'm still alive, but someone is already ready to move." β
Lin Jinwen nodded, counted the days with her fingers, looked at him with a smile and said, "Please do me a favor." β
"Then the king wants another purse."
"Deal." Lin Jin's smiling eyebrows and eyes were crooked, hiding the deepest cruelty. She didn't plan to let go of Lord Yuan, who hurt her father and brother, but now it seems that it is necessary for him to stay in this life, and Concubine De, who favors the harem, should also taste the taste of falling out of favor. No matter how jealous the emperor is of the forces behind Concubine De and Zhao Kan, is he jealous of Concubine De and Zhao Kan's ever-expanding desires and viciousness? A princess who killed himself in front of Dali Temple, and a princess who dared to come to the Lin family to play with the former heroes in applause, if a few more crimes were added, it would set off public resentment and the ministers were boiling, could it be called the emperor to do this?
She turned to leave, Zhao Huaiyan looked at Gao Yu on the side: "Protect Yuan En, and ...... the other" He glanced at the direction where Concubine De left, and twisted his eyebrows slightly: "Xiong Shuli has been demoted to a commoner, and he will take the Xicheng ferry back to the border tomorrow, and he doesn't have to stay alive." β
Gao Yu was a little worried: "But if you start in the capital territory, your subordinates are worried that the emperor will track it down." β
"Then change places." Zhao Huaiyan said, then spread out his palms, looking at the tiger talisman that the emperor gave him early this morning, the corners of his mouth were faintly hooked, Concubine De had followed her father for a lifetime, and she didn't see through what kind of person he was.
