Chapter 16: Xiao Shenze, who is not easy to fool
As the secret passage door opened again, Lin Wangtang, who had made up his mind in his heart, took a deep breath and walked out around the waterfall.
Then he deliberately took a long detour and approached the dark river from a dark place.
The firelight jumped in front of him and brought the sound of people talking, Lin Wantang gritted his teeth and exposed the bandaged wound again, and then ripped off the gauze covering his face and threw it into the river.
"Save ...... Help me!! ”
With Lin Wangtang's terrified scream, the conversation in front of him suddenly stopped.
Sure enough, when Lin Bangtang took a few steps closer, before he got closer, he saw an extremely eye-catching bright yellow in the firelight.
"Why are you here?"
Xiao Shenze swept over with sharp eyes, as if he wanted to see through Lin Wangtang.
And Lin Wantang is too familiar with this look, Xiao Shenze must be suspicious of her now.
After all, what happened to her as a newcomer to the harem in the past two days is outrageous.
It's really hard to be convincing if it doesn't matter at all.
"Your Majesty, you have killed someone, you have killed someone!"
As soon as Xiao Shenze's words fell, Lin Wantang directly flew and knelt at his feet.
His hands tugged at the corners of his clothes, and his big eyes were full of fear, as if he had just experienced some terrifying scene!
"What killing, make it clear!"
Xiao Shenze didn't expect Lin Wantang to react like this, and he was ready to ask and reprimand, and changed his words to another word.
"Your Majesty, just now the concubine was in a bad mood, so she brought the maid to this pure place to calm down, but I didn't expect a man in black to rush in!
She was afraid that the man in black would hurt me, so she rushed over to stop the man in black from approaching!
I didn't expect the man in black to ...... directly Direct...... Woo woo, your majesty, the concubine is so afraid! ”
Lin Wantang did not explain the cause and effect, and stopped after only half speaking.
She knew Xiao Shenze too well, and the more perfect the rhetoric, the more suspicious he would be.
"You start first...... Your arm hurts? ”
Xiao Shenze looked at the girl who was still a little excited before and cried so miserably, and he was in no mood to ask.
The harem concubines are very good-looking when they cry, and he remembers that Lin Wangtang was crying in front of him before, and I also saw pity for me.
Now that I'm crying like this, I don't have any image at all, so I'm probably really scared.
"The man in black killed Han Shu, and then used a dagger to scratch the concubine and hold the concubine hostage, if it weren't for the increasing movement here, the man left the concubine and jumped into the river to escape, the concubine might have been the same as Han Shu!"
After Lin Wantang finished speaking, he deliberately pulled the wound on his lower arm, and as the blood gushed out wildly, Xiao Shenze's eyes softened.
Lin Wangtang in front of him is only fifteen, and now he looks frightened.
From disfigurement to injury, it doesn't look like she did it on purpose.
And Lin Wangtang, who had lost too much blood, was now under Xiao Shenze's scrutiny, and his head had begun to faintly dizzy.
She really wanted to faint, but she couldn't!
She knows Xiao Shenze too well, but if she has the slightest doubt, if she faints, she will splash cold water on her, and she will have to wake up and continue to ask.
"Come on, send Little Master Lin back to Qinmei Courtyard!"
After a long silence, Xiao Shenze finally relented.
When Lin Bangtang heard this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Anyway, at least on the surface, Xiao Shenze believed her words.
"Your Majesty, will you let Little Master Lin go?"
Father-in-law Shi kept standing aside, and waited until Lin Wangtang walked away and saw that the emperor was still looking at Lin Wangtang's direction, and then asked.
"Shi Fu, what do you think of this Lin Bangtang?"
Unexpectedly, Xiao Shenze turned his head to look at him, and he was stunned when he asked.
"Your Majesty, how can Master Lin be a master, a slave ......"
"Don't say such high-sounding words, I let you say it!"
Before Father-in-law Shi's words were finished, he was interrupted by Xiao Shenze, who was frowning.
"If you go back to the emperor, Little Lord Lin will be a pity for that face."
Father-in-law Shi felt that Xiao Shenze was a little angry, and hurriedly lowered his head and spoke.
"You search again to see if there is anything missing, and besides, this dark river leads to the outside of the palace, follow the river to investigate!!"
Xiao Shenze, who heard Shi Fu's words, ordered coldly, and when Shi Fu on the side heard the words, he was sure that the emperor had believed Lin Xiaozhu's words.
Thinking of the emperor's expression towards Lin Xiaozhu when he first met, and thinking of the scar on Lin Xiaozhu's face just now, he felt a pity.
It's a pity that there is almost another favorite concubine in this harem!
During the night, Lin Wantang slept extremely restlessly, I don't know if it was because of the first killing, she could always dream of cold crisps.
"Little master, the emperor has sent you a question!"
Mama Zhou is also a human spirit, seeing this newcomer one after another, even the emperor has seen it again and again.
In this case, even if it is disfigured, what can it be?
The emperor who can't keep them is tired of eating delicacies from the mountains and seas, and he likes this?
"Got it, thank you, Mama, I'll go over right away."
Lin Wangtang made a movement in his hand, and then continued to drink some porridge as if he was fine.
"Little master, how can this flower wither, it was still fine yesterday!"
Xiyue's surprised voice came, and Lin Wantang glanced in that direction.
The flower was the one she poured last night, and it withered and died in just one night, which shows how strong the poison that kills people is!
After yesterday's incident, this Su Yalan was determined to kill her.
"It's okay, it's just a pot of flowers, let's go, we can't let the saint wait for us."
Thinking of this, Lin Wantang also had no intention of eating, so he put down the spoon and took out a handkerchief to wipe the corners of his mouth.
The Qinzheng Hall is a place to deal with political affairs, but now there is a pale corpse lying in the center.
The corpse was already hard, but the flesh hole in the neck was particularly eye-catching.
"See the emperor, long live the emperor!"
When Lin Wantang came in, he saw such a scene, even though there was foreshadowing in his heart, his heart was still pounding when he saw Han Shu's open eyes.
And Xiyue almost lost her voice and exclaimed.
Last night, the little master came back in an embarrassment, and she didn't see any trace of Han Su, and she was busy taking care of the little master and didn't take care of Han Su.
Unexpectedly, the person was already dead!
"Get up, Lin Bangtang, do you know this person?"
Xiao Shenze paid attention to Lin Wangtang's expression as soon as he entered the door, and saw that her face was instantly snow-white, so he asked.
"When I go back to the emperor, I recognize her, she is the cold crisp who protects my life!"
Lin Wantang lowered his head and said extremely respectfully.
"This ...... It's the thing that killed this little palace maid, and there are still toxins left on it, I really don't understand, the man in black last night was clearly a brain, why would he kill people with hairpins? ”
After Xiao Shenze finished speaking, he threw the hairpin at Lin Wangtang's feet, staring at her face with his eyes, not letting go of a trace of expression.
What Xiao Shenze didn't notice was that the setting moon not far away on the side suddenly changed when he saw the hairpin on the ground!
