Chapter 22 Borrowing the Momentum

The sound was not loud or small, but it was just enough that everyone in the room could hear it, and the three people kneeling on the ground instantly wailed again.

Luo Qingwan was scared, so she hurriedly crawled to Lin Qi's feet, grabbed her skirt and cried and said, "Sister, save me, I am your own sister, you just accept these gifts obediently, you won't die if you accept it, but if you don't accept it, I will die." ”

Lin Qi pulled hard and pulled back the hem of the dress from her hand, not moving in the slightest.

Save you, when you tried to kill me three times, did you ever think that I was your own sister?

When you forced Chou Chou to commit suicide, did you ever think that I was your own sister?

When you strangled Luo Baisu to death and threw her body off the cliff, did you ever think that she was your own sister?

Now begging for mercy, and don't weigh your own life, is it worth saving this girl!

The voice begging for mercy became louder and louder, Lin Qi's eyes were glowing with cold light, and he couldn't wait to rush up directly to slap Luo Qingwan twice and slap her unconscious.

Xiao Chengyue walked steadily, step by step towards the door.

"Wait." Just as Xiao Chengyue was approaching the door, Lin Qi finally couldn't help but speak, "I can accept the gift, but you can't take her away." ”

Lin Qi stretched out her hand and pointed at Luo Qingwan, her eyes were full of hatred, wouldn't it be too cheap for a person with a vicious mind like her to directly order her to be executed.

People like her should stay, torture slowly, as she said at the beginning, knife by knife, from flesh to will, and gradually destroy her, which is relieving.

Luo Qingwan owes the original owner, she wants to get it back little by little for the original owner with her own hands, and she will never let her die like this easily, let alone die at the hands of others first!

Xiao Chengyue turned around and looked at the bitter hatred in her eyes, and his heart was shocked.

"Repentant? There is no reason for the king to take back what he has said. Xiao Chengyue was stunned, he wanted to scare her, but who knew that Lin Qi just stood there fixedly, looking at him calmly, without the slightest fear in his eyes.

"Today's sin can be forgiven from the death penalty, but the living sin cannot be escaped, a hundred rods, not one rod less!" Xiao Cheng was more and more angry, she wanted him to release him, but he didn't!

He's going to do this for her today!

A hundred rods, resting on others, there is only one way to die, but what kind of person is Lin Qi, as long as there is still one breath left, she can revive people.

Wait for a hundred canes to beat Luo Qingwan half to death, and then use the medicine he brought to revive her, just so that she can also take advantage of this breath.

She smiled and nodded in embarrassment.

"Ah...... Sister, this ...... But a hundred rods......" Luo Qingwan was unwilling, reached out and grabbed Lin Qi's dress, and climbed to the soles of her feet.

"Shut up!" Lin Qi was furious.

It's not bad to be able to let her pick up a life, but she's still begging for mercy, is she really Guanyin Bodhisattva, Pudu sentient beings?

How could Xiao Chengyue not see Lin Qi's thoughts, he held his hands behind him, and when he saw Lin Qi stunned, he approached step by step.

Immediately afterwards, when everyone was surprised that a wave of temporaries rose again and again, Xiao Chengyue actually stretched out his hand in public, took Lin Qi into his arms, and spun a few steps away from everyone.

His fingers were pressed tightly against her abdomen, and there was a slight heat, "I believe in your medical skills, and I will never disappoint this king." ”

Lin Qi was slightly surprised, was he helping her?

His voice sounded above his head, very soft, very soft, completely different from Xiao Chengyue, who was about to kill someone at the first order.

However, such a domineering action is more like telling others that she Luo Baisu is his Xiao Chengyue's person, and no one can move!

On the side, Luo Qingwan's eyes were red with anger, and the hands under her sleeves were tightly clenched into fists.

Why are they all young ladies of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but Luo Baisu is so good-natured, she can marry the royal family as soon as she is born, it is not enough to have a King Ning, and now, even the third prince has to protect her like this.

Luo Qingwan climbed to Jiang's side with a few steps in a row, and plunged into Jiang's arms, "Mother......"

Jiang was also so angry that he vomited blood, but he could only wipe a handful of tears and shook his head helplessly, "My Wan'er......"

The decision made by the third prince, who dared to ask for a change, and just now Xiao Chengyue had already spared Luo Qingwan's life and changed the capital crime to a cane punishment.

Now, she can only ask God to bless her, and after a hundred rods, Luo Qingwan is still alive......

After Xiao Chengyue left, heavy snow suddenly fell in the sky, and the cold wind poured in, Luo Ting'an turned around and looked at Lin Qi with a straight face, his face looked very heavy, and he wanted to speak several times.

"If the father has anything to say, just say it directly, and the daughter will go back to the yard to change the water for the flowers and plants." She even looks at flowers and plants more than his father!

"You ......" Suddenly, Luo Ting'an raised his slap high, and he was about to land on Lin Qi's face with a flick of his hand, but at the last moment, he stopped for a moment.

Luo Baisu has changed, as soon as Luo Baisu saw him, his face was full of panic, his eyebrows were lowered, he didn't even dare to raise his head, and began to hide from afar.

And now, there was no longer that cowardly look in her eyes, but instead anger, resentment, and fearlessness against it.

Luo Baisu, who bloomed like this, made him feel very familiar, but it also made Luo Ting'an start to be afraid, afraid that one day the East Window incident would happen, and he would no longer be able to protect her.

"Do you really want to marry into the royal family? Since ancient times, the royal family has been in turmoil, have you ever thought about it? That kind of life of open and secret fighting is not for you, and your mother does not want ......"

"Don't mention my mother to me...... Does my father think that the Prime Minister's Mansion is suitable for me? Isn't it an open and secret fight? How have I been all these years, my father doesn't know in his heart? ”

Lin Qi glanced at his palm that was paused in mid-air, and sneered, in his memory, this father had never given the original owner a good face since he was a child, and if it weren't for his distrust, Mrs. Bai Qin would not have died.

Now if you want to pretend to be a good person, the ghost won't believe it!

"Since my father doesn't care about my life or death, then I don't have to care about the relationship between father and daughter, from now on, I will walk my own way, and I have nothing to do with my father." With that, turn and leave.

Lin Qi didn't see it, and after she left, Luo Ting'an held her hand tightly and muttered: "If I wasn't ruthless, how could you live, it's all wronged......"

His voice was so low that no one heard him.

Behind him, Jiang got up with a wipe of tears, and reached out to pull Luo Ting'an's sleeve, "Master, you can't be so partial, save Wan'er, she is also your daughter." ”

"She made her own sins, let her pay it back by herself, don't think that I don't know what your mother and daughter do on weekdays, you take good care of her for me, if something happens one day, don't blame me for not thinking about you and my husband and wife for many years!"

Luo Ting'an's tone changed, and when he was talking to Lin Qi in an instant, he shook his sleeves heavily, directly threw Jiang Shi to the ground, and walked out of the door angrily.

……

Lin Qi returned to his yard, and several large wooden boxes were carried into the house, all of which were brought by Xiao Chengyue.

Among them, there is a box of gold and jade jewelry, two boxes of silk and brocade, and the medicinal materials are packed in a large box, which is listed according to classification and different small boxes.

Lin Qi walked into the house, his eyes hovered back and forth on the box, Xiao Chengyue is unfathomable, according to his rules and regulations, coming to the Prime Minister's Mansion today is definitely not just as simple as giving her a gift.

Could it be that he wanted to take the opportunity to win over Luo Ting'an in order to gain Luo Ting'an's support in the court?

No, if this is the case, then Luo Qingwan's crime by him will not lose Luo Ting'an's heart even more, and even offend the Prime Minister's Mansion. As soon as the idea was generated, it was immediately ruled out by Lin Qi.

She walked over and opened the big box containing medicinal herbs, there were about a dozen small boxes inside, and the top one contained a snow ginseng, which looked at the size and color of the plant, at least more than a thousand years.

And the next is also full of some rare medicinal materials, not to mention ancient times, even Lin Qi, a modern person, sees it, and feels extremely precious.

Suddenly, her gaze froze, and she landed directly on a black box at the bottom of the box.

The other herbs are packed in red boxes, except for this black wooden box, which is old and can be seen at a glance from other new wooden boxes.

Lin Qi took it out, and sure enough, what it contained was not medicinal herbs, but a stack of letter paper and an account book.

Lin Qi cut open a few of them, but he was so shocked that his hands almost trembled when he saw it, because what was written on the letter was nothing else, and it was related to the fact that King Ning and Yun Shangshu went to disaster relief this time.

The letter basically meant that the northern part of the border has been dry all year round, and there is no grass growing in the surrounding areas, but in July this year, there was a sudden flood, which caused epidemics.

In order to make money, some local black-hearted doctors even called the ordinary medicinal materials they received "life-saving fairy grass" and sold them at ten times the price and dozens of times.

There are no medicinal herbs to be found around, and in order to survive, the people can only spend all their wealth to buy a "life-saving fairy grass", but those ordinary medicinal materials can only delay but not cure, and the epidemic has never been solved, and many people have died one after another.

"These people do whatever they want, in the whole world, is there still a royal law, is there any justice, is the court just let it go?" Seeing this, Lin Qi was so angry that he slapped his palm on the table.

For those who practice medicine, it is the doctor's duty to save lives first, and to treat diseases and save people.

And these people, relying on their own medical skills, actually went to earn other people's hard-earned money, and a plantain actually sold for ten taels of silver, which is even more black-hearted than robbery!

Soon, however, she understood why.

In another account book, what should be relative is the silver earned by these "life-saving fairy grasses", each of which is a large amount.

And at the end of each account, there is a red seal, and the source of the red seal is not elsewhere, it is the Five Kings' Mansion, which is now Ningwangfu.

Is it him?

Lin Qi was stunned, no wonder no one reported to the court, because of this matter, the emperor had let King Ning be responsible, King Ning in Beijing was snobbish, and no one dared to offend easily.

Moreover, even if he informed the emperor of the truth of this matter, King Ning could easily shirk his responsibility on the grounds that the medicinal materials were already precious, and it didn't matter to him.

Anyway, the herbs have already been eaten into the stomachs of the victims, and they can't find out.

Regarding the epidemic, it is even simpler, natural disasters and man-made disasters, who can say clearly, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and it cannot be saved or not treated, for the victims, there is no difference at all.

"He's such a man!" Lin Qi's eyes were like torches, fortunately, the marriage was postponed at that time, if he married such a person, it would be better to kill her directly.

"No, since this matter was originally done by King Ning, what was the purpose of his automatic invitation to go to the disaster relief this time?"

And this incriminating evidence is from the hands of Xiao Chengyue, he has just returned to Beijing, where is there so much spare time to investigate these incriminating evidence.

The truth of this criminal evidence has not been distinguished, even if it is true, what is Xiao Chengyue's purpose?

Is it just as simple as letting her see King Ning's true face?

Lin Qi held the account book in her hand, and the ensuing doubts gradually surrounded her anger, whether this matter was true or not, she must figure it out, she didn't plan to marry King Ning in the first place, maybe she could take this opportunity......
