Chapter 170: The Storm in the Palace (38)

Lin Wanwan pushed aside the dense clouds of memories dotted around, and explored inch by inch, and finally let her find some clues.

I remember that Ziyu had come to her at the beginning, saying that his benefactor had been suffering for a long time, and he could only rely on drugs to suppress the old diseases in his body for many years, and his body was becoming weaker and weaker, hoping to help him find the whereabouts of the "Glowing Grass" with the help of the intelligence network of Feihua Pavilion.

At that time, she knew that the benefactor in Ziyu's mouth was Su Jin.

Later, because of the secret agent, she thought it was a bureau set up by Su Jin, and deliberately let Ziyu perform a scene, so that she could relax her vigilance, so as to use herself to lure out the secret agents of the two countries hiding in Nanling and annihilate them. But now that he thinks about it, Ziyu's expression at that time was solemn and sincere, and it didn't seem like he was lying.

Later, on the island in the middle of the lake, Su Jin also vomited a mouthful of blood without warning in the process of arguing with him, and almost fainted to the ground, and the whole person looked very weak. She thought he had an internal injury at the time, and asked him when he was injured, but in the end he was fooled by his gag, and now that she thinks about it, it looks more like she's covering up something.

And since that night, Su Jin has disappeared for nearly a month, she has heard Luo Huaizhou mention it, saying that Su Jin went back to her hometown to worship her ancestors, but it is okay to deceive Luo Huaizhou, but she can't deceive her at all. At that time, she only thought that Su Jin was deliberately avoiding herself, and the Mid-Autumn Festival night incident made her disheartened, so she didn't dig deeper.

Later, on the day she met Hua Yanzhi, she always felt that something was wrong with Su Jin, he seemed to have a violent aura hidden in his body, and he wanted to kill Hua Yanzhi on the street recklessly, and later even wanted to kill Sun Yuning in the palm of his hand. She faintly noticed at that time that Su Jin seemed to be a little unable to control the murderous desire in her heart.

When she stopped Su Jin, she inadvertently found some small holes in his wrists, which looked like traces left by being pricked by silver needles, although she had doubts in her heart, but she didn't think about it in that situation at that time. Later, with the execution of Jiang Huailang and the robbery of Nie Shu, a series of events that shook the foundation of Nanling, this matter was neglected by her, and it was not until today that she gradually remembered it.

Thinking of this, Lin Wanwan's heart trembled, as if something had hit her heart hard, and after a short tremor, an unspeakable anxiety and uneasiness quietly rose from the depths of her heart.

She couldn't help but recall Ziyu's words that were almost blurted out last night-

"Since Miss Lin even knows all this, how can she not know what kind of person the master is? Why do you need to say those heart-wrenching words today? You know, master, he-"

This sentence came to an abrupt end at this point, and Ziyu's expression at that time was already faintly gloomy, and it was obvious that he blurted out under emotion, but then he seemed to realize something, and immediately silenced the following words. Although Lin Wanwan didn't know what Ziyu wanted to say, she knew that it must be related to Su Jin, and it was by no means a trivial matter, otherwise with Ziyu's calm and introverted temperament, how could she almost lose her words.

These kinds of signs seem to confirm Ziyu's original statement, could it be that Su Jin is really suffering from a chronic illness? But she has been inquiring about Su Jin's news all these years, and she has never heard of Su Jin's serious illness or serious injury, so why is he so sick that he can't recover?

Lin Wandai's eyebrows were tightly locked, her eyes were filled with a layer of doubt, and countless thoughts flashed in her mind.

Suddenly, her gaze froze, as if she had caught something.

Could it be......

In a trance, Lin Wanwan remembered the conversation between her uncle and aunt that she overheard five years ago-

"Su Jin's child is also pitiful enough, now he is helpless, he doesn't even have a relative by his side, but he still has to carry a heavy burden and support the whole country alone. Although King Yong's army failed, the remnants of the remnants who were hiding in the palace still moved, and they didn't know if he was okay now. ”

"Madame, relax, that kid's heart is more than a lotus peng, unless he deliberately shows his flaws, I am afraid that it will be difficult to calculate him. In the two years since he went back, he allowed King Yong to rise to power, which seemed to be showing weakness, but in fact, he had already set up a game in secret, just waiting for King Yong to take the bait. As soon as the Yong King rebelled, he would be able to get rid of this confidant in the name of righteousness. This time, if it weren't for this kid deliberately releasing the news that he was assassinated by King Yong's Yu Dang, with the rigor of Dongchen's Secret Pavilion, even the Feihua Pavilion might not be able to find out about this matter so easily. ”

"Is the master saying that the assassination by King Yong Yu Dang was a fake news deliberately released by Xiao Jin? Why did he do it? ”

"This kid is a fox who has cultivated to perfection. After King Yong's defeat, he seemed to accept those under King Yong's command who were willing to surrender, but in fact, he had no intention of letting them go at all. He had only been in power for two years, and his foundation had not yet been solid, and at this time the people in the court were focused on dealing with this matter, and if he let go of these rebels, he would be too lenient, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to establish authority, let alone warn those ambitious courtiers in the court. But if he uses his iron and bloody hands to clean up those who surrender, he will be criticized as violent and wanton, and it will be difficult to convince the public. Therefore, as long as he releases the news that he was assassinated by the remnants of King Yong, no matter what the facts are, he can use this as an excuse to completely eliminate the remnants of King Yong's henchmen. In this way, he will not be criticized, and he can achieve the purpose of killing chickens and setting an example, so as to deter the ministers and let the government and the opposition understand that if he is disloyal, he will not leave an inch of grass. ”

Now that I think about it, it is very likely that Su Jin was really assassinated by the remnants of King Yong, and he was not lightly injured, and the old disease in his body should have fallen at that time.

Thinking of this, Lin Wanwan's eyelashes trembled slightly, and several undercurrents seemed to be surging in the depths of her eyes, rippling and rippling, constantly tugging at her heartstrings.

She only now understands that the assassination of Yongwang Yu Dang was not a play deliberately performed by Su Jin in order to hibernate into Nanling, all of this really happened.

At that time, Dongchen had just experienced the rebellion of King Yong, and Su Jin finally stabilized the situation, once the news of his serious injury spread, then Dongchen would be turbulent again, and it was very likely that he would fall into the danger of internal and external troubles.

That's why Su Jin kept his serious injuries secret. The world only knew that his appearance was ruined, but they never knew the danger behind it, let alone that his life was hanging by a thread, and she even speculated about Su Jin's methods and scheming behind it with prejudice.

still remembers that she made a wish to Su Jin back then, saying that she wanted him to become a prosperous monarch, although he did not agree at that time, but he has been doing his best all these years, and he has done it.

Lin Wanwan suddenly closed her eyes, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and the tide in her heart continued to surge, and finally turned into a moisturizing drizzle, washing away her prejudice and ignorance.

She didn't dare to think about it, Su Jin carried the mission and responsibility alone, how much did Yu Yu bear silently behind her over the years, and how much did she bear alone, so that she had the current Haiyan Heqing of Dongchen Kingdom?
