"Who cares about you!" Lin Niannian felt that he was noisy, and replied angrily.

Seeing that Yuan Kui was about to attack again, the old woman spoke out in time and interrupted the quarrel between the two:

"Girl, if you don't dislike it, you might as well go to my house for a few days. Don't worry, my family only has me and a daughter, and there are a few grass houses, so it's better for the two of you to live there first. ”

Lin Niannian thought about it and found that he really had nowhere to go. He agreed directly, and Yuan Kui behind him didn't say much, anyway, now that he has a place to live, it's better than sleeping in a bridge cave at night.

"Then it's troublesome for my mother-in-law." Lin Nian said.

The old woman smiled and walked in front of them with a slight trembling smile, leading them in the way, talking to them as she spoke.

Along the way, Lin Niannian roughly knew that this mother-in-law was a farmer outside the city, and she had no name, and others called her Meng Wang.

In Lingnan City, there is a daughter who got married, married to a butcher, and the young couple has always been in love, but a month ago, this butcher fell ill and died, and there was only one daughter left in the family, and there were no children.

Meng Wang was worried about his daughter, so he simply came to the city on his little feet, wanting to take care of his daughter's daily life.

But I didn't expect to run into the strict investigation and evil officials in Lingnan City, if it wasn't for Lin Niannian's help, I'm afraid this trip would have been in vain.

As they spoke, the three of them turned into a quiet street. After walking forward for a while, the front suddenly opened up.

I saw a small stall with pig bones hanging and some minced meat left on the board. The old woman took a few steps forward and shouted "Chunhong" into the inside.

Immediately, a woman said yes and walked out of it.

Lin Nian looked at it every year, it was a woman dressed in coarse cloth with tall figure and thin cheeks.

There was still a filial piety cloth on his body, and when he saw Lin Niannian, the two of them couldn't help but have a trace of vigilance in their eyes.

When the old woman introduced Zero Year and the others to her, the woman's face instantly softened and thanked her.

At this time, there were no more people buying meat at the stall, so Chunhong simply cleaned up and took a few people back to where she lived.

There were a few thatched houses, not too big but comfortable and clean.

Lin Niannian and Yuan Kui lived next door side by side, and Yuan Kui had a little disgust on his face, and he was glared at by Lin Niannian, which could be regarded as somewhat restrained.

"The two of you were a little inconsiderate." Chunhong came to Lin Niannian with a change of clothes, with a shy expression on her face, "Since the death of my husband, I rarely buy men's clothes, and I ask the girl's brother not to dislike it." ”

"Don't dislike, don't dislike." Lin Niannian took the things from her hand, "That guy has something to wear, it's good, and the girl's things are delivered at the right time." ”

Chunhong smiled, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.

Lin Niannian only found out at this time that Chunhong's face was blue under his eyes, and his face was also a little haggard.

"Girl, we are not familiar with this place here, I don't know if the girl can tell us about the things in Lingnan City."

Seeing that Chunhong was leaving, Lin Niannian hurriedly stopped the person, and the girl thought for a while: "I don't know much, I don't know what kind of thing the girl wants to hear?" ”

“… Let's start with why Lingnan City is so heavily guarded. Lin Niannian thought about it and finally said.

The woman nodded, "We have to start from the beginning." ”

Immediately afterward, Chunhong told her about such a thing.

It all started with the death of the third prince Zhao Tong three years ago.

In that year, the three princes rebelled and were imprisoned in Lingnan. Originally, everything was as usual, and during the time the three princes were in Lingnan, there was no major turmoil, and I thought that it would be the end of my life.

Unexpectedly, the three princes died suddenly, and when the mourning period was over, Lingnan had a sudden change.

First, the Lingnan prefect who came here to take office died one after another. Immediately afterwards, the terrifying "black water disease" suddenly appeared in Lingnan City.

The deceased were all emaciated limbs, swollen bellies, and finally exploded to death.

People say that it is the ghost of the three princes who is haunting people, which makes people panic. There was a rumor that the Three Emperors were wronged.

When today's son, the biological brother of the third prince, heard about this time, he had to send more people from the capital to suppress the rumors, which was the initial effect, but everyone didn't say it on the surface, but in fact, it was still widely spread behind the scenes.

The people on the street thought that the rumors had hit the heart of the royal family, so they were even more convinced.

“… As for the guards at the city gate, it was actually a last resort. The adults were afraid that the black water disease from outside would spread in the city, so they sent people to search everyone who came to the city. ”

"And as long as there are black sailors in the city, then everyone in this family will be driven to the epidemic area outside the city, where it is said to be terrible, and there are no people and ghosts who are tormented by the disease."

Chunhong said, as if she had seen the scene of the epidemic area, and her heart palpitated.

So everyone in the city was terrified. Miss Lin, that's all I know. ”

Lin Niannian listened silently, and there was something wrong in his heart.

She didn't expect that the life and death of a third prince would pull out so many things.

Back then, the prince Zhao Tong was the top boss of the Lin family, and the emperor once handed over the right to command the Lin family army to the third prince.

And Lin Mukun, the general of Lin, also died under the "investigation" of the three princes, and in the name of "rebellion".

Unexpectedly, many years later, are these three princes the real masterminds behind the rebellion?

It's really ridiculous.

Lin Niannian screamed in his heart, I don't know if he is happy or angry?

She knew that her father's affairs must have been inseparable from the so-called 3 princes.

However, now, the third prince is dead. The dead are dead, and there is no right symptom, unless Zhao Tong's bones can speak and tell everyone the truth of the year.

"Miss Lin... Miss Lin? Chunhong's voice sounded in her ears, and Lin Niannian looked up and saw the woman looking at her with a worried face.

"I'm fine, Sister Chunhong, I'm just a little tired." Lin Nian smiled reluctantly, signaling that he was fine.

Chunhong relieved herself, breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "Since that's the case, then I won't bother you." Miss Lin, you have to rest well. I'll make you some tonic in the evening. You make up for your body. ”

"You took people out to go to relatives at such a young age, and you came from so far away." Chunhong is embarrassed.

"Thank you, Sister Chunhong." Lin Nian Nian was a little flattered.

Raising his eyes, he saw Yuan Kui, who had been leaning against the door and listening for a long time, who looked disgusted, made a grimace at her, and silently shouted the word "waste" at her.

In an instant, the complicated emotions just now were swept away. Lin Niannian waved his fist, wanting to kill him.
