Chapter 461 Target
After inviting Yufeng into the room, Lin Huiru asked the doubts in his heart, "So, what is your purpose in telling us about this matter?
" Although on the surface you and the Ministry of Criminal Affairs have separated from this matter, the Ministry of Criminal Affairs has been interfering with Dali Temple intentionally or unintentionally, doing things that add to the chaos. Click on the lack of manpower here, I hope Mr. Xu can help you Help." Yufeng stood there respectfully and said.
Xu Ziqiao smiled, "Since His Majesty won't let me participate in this matter, he suspects that there is a problem between me and the servant of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Now that the people from the Ministry of Criminal Justice have intervened, as long as they produce evidence, their charges can be confirmed. Why do you want me to intervene to confuse the public, so you are not afraid that the Ministry of Criminal Justice will attack you?"
In fact, there is another point that makes him reluctant to agree. This matter will be successful in the end, and Tang Junyi will be the one who achieved it. Although he is not short of those one or two names, but if this fuels Tang Junyi's momentum, it may be even more difficult to deal with in the future.
"That's what I said, but after all, the Criminal Department is just internal aid, not Anguo's secret agent. In this way, if the Criminal Department is only banned, it is very likely that it will alarm Anguo and miss some important news. For a while, my Highness has noticed that you are also paying attention to Chunfeng Tower, which proves that you will not give up this matter easily. On the surface, His Highness hangs around the place of fireworks, but during this period of time, he has almost grasped the details of Chunfeng Tower ." Yufeng took his time and was not at all worried that Xu Ziqiao would refuse.
Lin Huiru listened quietly, Tang Junyi was like the person behind the scene, and she was also very curious, Tang Junyi shouldn't have predicted the future when this matter started early, so why did he put a hand in to cause trouble for himself? Well, "Before you have any results, I would like to ask a question, why did His Royal Highness pay attention to going to Chunfeng Tower?"
Yufeng turned around and saluted Lin Huiru again, "Returning to Madam, His Highness noticed something was wrong as early as when Anguo spies came to Beijing, and it was too coincidental when Chunfenglou got up, plus the Lantern Festival Festival..." Seemingly remembering something, Yu Feng suddenly stopped, "In short, His Highness has already sent the list of the Chunfeng Building. Didn't Master Xu also discuss going to the Chunfeng Building just now? My Highness means, In fact, there are still many people in Chunfeng Building who are innocent and used to cover up, so as long as the four women don't meet each other, no one will recognize what Mr. Xu wants to find out." "Since your family has been there for a long
time If we haven't found out, we probably won't be able to find out, so why should we go again." Xu Ziqiao frowned, the feeling that His Highness's every move was controlled by others really made him feel uncomfortable.
"My Highness's identity is too obvious. Even if you can pretend to hang around brothels, there are some places where you can't investigate, but Master Xu is different." Yufeng replied.
Xu Ziqiao sneered, "What's different? My face is recognized by most people in the capital. What you think is, use me as a bait to attract their attention. Now that Your Highness has a clue, why not tell me about it. "
Regarding this matter, Tang Junyi had long said that Xu Ziqiao might see through it, but the only person who can make a difference at the moment is the one who is of high status or who is of the same mind. Of course, being of one mind is not being of one mind with him.
"Master Xu is wise. Now there are His Highness's people in the Chunfeng Tower, but those An Guo people are very cautious. It has been two months, but there is no time to act. Therefore, Your Highness hopes that you can go to the Spring Wind Tower, Anguo Our spies are very interested in you and Mrs. Lin, and they will definitely attract their attention at that time, and our people can collect evidence in due course." Yufeng briefly stated the plan, but there was one sentence that attracted Lin Huiru's attention force.
"What do you mean, they are very interested in me and Xu Ziqiao?" Lin Huiru narrowed her eyes, her expression a little stiff.
Yufeng smiled dryly, "Master Xu is a dark horse in the current dynasty. The trend of being promoted to rank has long been known all over the world. Madam Lin, your way of doing business is also very respected. Ideas seep from within."
"That's right, but they are so weak, they can't offer any nice conditions to win people over." Lin Huiru couldn't help rolling her eyes, what is this all about.
"That's not necessarily the case. If Anguo succeeds, maybe we all have to change our name. Promising a generous condition at that time is their strategy to win people's hearts." Although it is a strategy, it sounds just like that, ordinary , can't arouse Lin Huiru's interest at all.
Xu Ziqiao sighed, "This is also the reason why they lost. They will not find the root cause of the problem at all. I agree to this matter. Go back and answer your highness. As for when to go, it is up to your highness to decide. , I'll just cooperate as much as possible."
After finishing speaking, Lin Huiru's face turned ugly, "No, I'll go too if you go." Although Xu Ziqiao may not have that kind of intention, those women don't necessarily , especially that Yu Luan who was too active, if she posted it, with Xu Ziqiao's demeanor, she might not be able to push it away immediately.
What's more, most of the secret agents have martial arts, if they use some insidious and despicable methods, they will be almost impossible to defend against.
"I went here on purpose to focus on those four oirans. If you go, you will be easily recognized. Only my own words can attract attention. You just need to wait at home." Xu Ziqiao was a little helpless.
Lin Huiru was full of reluctance and reluctance. She glanced at Bai Qianyi, and Bai Qianyi immediately understood, "I will protect Master Xu." On the surface it was protection, but in fact it was
Lin Huiru. Ru's eyeliner followed, but Lin Huiru was not worried that they would be in trouble, but she always felt stuffy in her heart, and she couldn't let go of places like brothels.
Seeing that she had been in a bad mood for several days, Bai Shu came up with a solution, "Madam, I heard that the firm is very lively recently, and you haven't been there for a long time. Do you want to go over there and check the account books?
" No need, just let them send it over by themselves, not to mention that if I don't read it, there is the Ministry of Household Affairs." Lin Huiru's tone was weak, and the whole person looked particularly listless, even when he spoke, he was weak. It's unbearably worrying.
Chapter 462
Bai Shu was a little helpless, "Madam, you should trust Mr. Xu." "
Yes, I do trust him, but I don't trust the girls in Chunfeng Building. They have plots in the first place, who knows if there will be some kind of sword to go?" Pian Feng's actions forced him." Lin Huiru held his chin and said.
"Don't worry, there is also my brother. His martial arts are world-class, and there are few people in the capital who are his opponents." Bai Shu continued to comfort Lin Huiru persistently.
Now Lin Huiru didn't speak at all. After all, if this person started a conspiracy theory, there was almost nothing he could do to convince her.
"Ma'am, it's not good..." In the silence, a servant ran over in a panic. Originally, Bai Shu wanted to wink him not to disturb Lin Huiru.
But Lin Huiru said, "What's the matter? What's wrong?"
"Yes...it's the commercial bank. Today there are businessmen who have gone to several other countries and want loans. They still have unsecured high-priced figures. We After the people said that they wouldn't issue the money, they started messing around there looking for something." The boy spoke a little anxiously, almost biting his tongue.
Lin Huiru frowned, "Isn't it better to leave this kind of thing to the patrol battalion? Anyone who makes trouble will be detained, so you don't need to come over and tell me." "But
those people seem to be looking for something on purpose , It can be regarded as a few merchants who cooperate with merchants in the capital. Now because of this incident, they have begun to verbally attack our country, and even said that they will cut off the business relationship. "The boy is also very difficult. This matter is not small or big, but if it rises to the level of the relationship between the two countries, this matter is still very troublesome.
"It's just a group of vassal states, but they dare to be so rampant. Ma'am, I think that if An Guo dared to send spies, he probably united with those small, incompetent states. He didn't know what he said, but he dared to act wildly in the capital." Bai Shu was a little annoyed. uneven.
Lin Huiru waved her hand. She also had concerns about this matter. In fact, she also had intentions in not granting loans to other countries in this matter. Or the verification is very problematic, and a small dispute may cause a lot of trouble. But now that she has been maliciously raised to the national level, she has to come forward.
"Okay, I'll change my clothes and go. Is there the patrol camp?" Lin Huiru sighed and stood up. She was also irritable at home, so why not take this opportunity to go for a walk and vent her feelings by the way resentment.
Uneasy, Bai Shu followed Lin Huiru to the patrol camp. Recently, Lin Huiru has been in and out of the patrol camp several times, and each time is not a trivial matter, and most people here know her.
"Madam, it's hard work. Madam, you have to deal with this kind of matter yourself. Your subordinates have prepared hot tea. Madam, would you like to drink it first to warm yourself up?" the officer of the patrol battalion eagerly followed beside him.
Lin Huiru rubbed her hands. Although spring has begun, the weather is still unusually cold. "Come together, let me meet those bold businessmen. I heard the rumors in a serious tone." "Yes, those people are
simply You are so bold that even a small country whose king would bow down to us as a vassal dares to be so rampant, the worst thing is not to use their things, madam, please don't get angry." The officer said again.
Lin Huiru glanced at him and said nothing.
That is to say, in fact, the things that are in circulation in those small countries are not considered necessities, but they are used a little more for some powerful people. The quality of the old ones is not good, and the expensive ones always feel that it is not necessary.
For businessmen from other countries, the Patrol Battalion politely prepared a wing room. As soon as Lin Huiru entered, the men in different costumes stood up and looked her up and down.
"You are so brave, you dare to disrespect Madam Gaoming, what is your attitude?" The officer reprimanded, the contempt on the faces of those people can be seen, and the etiquette is not in place, it can be called a shame at all. dispensable.
Seeing them like this, Lin Huiru also understood in her heart that it was because they thought this matter was unfair, they clearly straightened up their backs to find something, and it happened that she was not happy in her heart.
"Does the monarch know how many of you are doing this?" Lin Huiru was not polite to them, and walked directly to the side and sat down. Immediately afterwards, hot tea was handed over. She just fiddled with the tea leaves with a tureen, and was not in a hurry to drink.
"Huh, we signed the armistice agreement to ask all countries to take good care of each other. All countries in the world are one family. Since you opened the door and claimed that you can help people in the world tide over difficulties, why don't you allow us to borrow money?" a nomad provocatively said. .
Lin Huiru didn't even give a straight look, and smiled sarcastically, "We have ceased the war, and the countries have taken good care of them, but they are not helping the poor. If you have our country's industry, you can use it as collateral. Even our own people want to If you want to borrow money, you also need a mortgage. If you don't have it, is it possible that I still have to use money to waste money?" "Don't
use this name if you can't afford it! Isn't it possible to evaluate any interpersonal relationship? Why not lend money? What you are doing is discriminating and sowing dissension. You are just a woman. It's fine to take care of the children at home and teach the children. If you come out to do business and do nondescript things, it will make people laugh out loud." They dare to be so rampant. , It was also unexpected by the people in the patrol battalion.
Lin Huiru didn't take this sentence to heart, but she remembered the words of being poor and making trouble, "I made a name but I didn't say that all countries can borrow it. As the saying goes, those who are close to Zhu The red is close to the ink and the black is black. What about the people around you? This is my own business and not the country. In other words, I can lend my own money to whomever I want. If I buy a piece of meat to feed the dog, I will not even want to give it to you. This is my freedom, do you understand? Here, the red lips and yellow teeth raise the matter between countries. I don't know what your intentions are? Yes If you start a war, if you have money, someone can fight, or can you beat it? Since you can't stand up, just kneel down, don't do anything but rely on your mouth, and still play sexism here, what are you? The wool comes from the sheep, and it is really eye-opening to blame the sheep if you can't get it. May I ask if the reason why your country is so weak is that there are too many people like you who think that everyone in the world is your mother? "
Chapter 463
Lin Huiru pressed forward step by step with sharp teeth, and the faces of several popular people turned red and liver-colored, and they trembled when they stretched out their hands, "You! Bitch! How dare you slander us, what is your intention! You are just a woman , your vision is so short-sighted, you don't have anyone else, it's a joke to rely on a woman!" "What's the matter with women?
Your mother is also a woman, or are you not raised by humans? It reminded me of a word, shrew swears, but you are not as good as a woman, you need to practice more in this kind of verbal battle." Lin Huiru rolled her eyes, quite disdainful.
"I said that the things I make are nondescript. Dare I ask how many things you can buy? Is it because of doing business with other countries that you can survive? Your elders in your family didn't teach you the saying, "Drink water and think of the source, right? No one needs money to do business with you. You really regard yourself as the main force of consumption and show off your power here. I don't know if your parents under the nine springs will be annoyed because of this heart-wrenching head to give birth to such a shameless and ungrateful person like you. Something?" Although she hadn't quarreled for a long time, she hadn't retreated a bit in her verbal skills after she fought with the people in the mall, and her aggressiveness made the group of strong men in front of her have no chance to refute, and the officer next to her was even more so. Couldn't help casting adoring gazes.
"Hmph, I thought a woman who could be the prime minister is so attractive, but she is just such a vicious shrew who scolds her with unscrupulous words, tell you emperor, there are many such people, be careful that we will look down on you." When there is no way to start, the appearance of these men's personal attacks is really embarrassing.
Lin Huiru couldn't help smiling and drank the cold tea, "Do you know who you're talking to? I'm your food and clothing parent. Who do you think you get most of your stuff from?" Who did you get it from? The people who do business with me are all over the world, and they can line up from the capital to the border. What kind of person are you here to sell five or six. The money I earn in one day is your money for a year. If I don't Doing this business with you, where do you have arrogant capital? To be honest, we have a vast land and abundant resources, and there are more than a thousand or eight hundred kinds of things than you. If you want to, you can't find a substitute. Now as long as I don't do you The business is over, how many people do you think dare to do it? Next time, you should find out the identities of others before showing off, and think about the consequences of this matter before being bribed. You don't have to play dumb with me and I know why you are here. "
"Go and exchange some hot tea for me." Lin Huiru handed out the teacup in his hand, and continued, "Don't compare your useless people with us. Don't you have any points for the national conditions? Even if I exempt our country from taxation for a year, I won't give you a dime. I advise you to be more sensible. I just show pity for your people. If I cut off your trade routes, I will wait for you. Just starve to death."
Waiting for the officer to come back, this group of people who have been restrained for a long time can be considered to have found a place to play.
"Look who you are! What a friendly relationship between us! A woman's words are so aggressive! Believe it or not, let's go back and tell the king!?
" This kind of differential treatment! How could we be like this if all the good places hadn't been taken by you!"
Lin Huiru sneered at the corner of her lips, and just as she took the cup of hot tea, she turned towards the chattering person Throwing the face door, this face will definitely leave a scar, "I told you, don't let me be arrogant here, this is the capital, not your home, and you have to have the ability to see your majesty. By the way, this time If you don't get medical treatment in our country, you will fester and die of infection sooner or later when you return to your country
. It can be said that all the anger in her heart has been vented, which is refreshing.
The leader will be scolded and screamed, and the officer's admiration for Lin Huiru will be even higher, "That's it, if you play wild in the capital again, you will be sent back to the country directly. It can be discussed, please don't waste things now, go out and treat yourself, and walk slowly." After leaving the
patrol camp, Lin Huiru felt in a good mood, although there would be such scum under the same blue sky, but Thinking about their results she felt relieved.
"Today's ma'am's heroic appearance really impressed the lower officials. To tell you the truth, my family's affairs are urgent recently. Thanks to my ma'am's loan, the house is mortgaged so that they can continue to live and treat their illnesses. There is no way to repay my kindness. Our country can have It is really an honor for the country to have someone like Madam." The officer would have already admired him, and regardless of the other people around him, he would kneel down and salute.
Bai Shu reacted and hurriedly supported her. After all, this place was the gate of the patrol camp. If something bad came out, it would be Lin Huiru who was in trouble.
"No need to thank you, the original intention of opening this is to help people relieve their urgent needs. It just so happens that I am also in a bad mood today, and those things just made you laugh. Okay, you go back quickly, remember to pay back the loan on time, I will go back first It's gone." Lin Huiru spoke hastily and left in a hurry, she got into the carriage in a hurry, and ordered to go to the firm.
On the way, Bai Shu was a little puzzled, "Ma'am, why are you in such a hurry?
" Look at those regulations, there is absolutely no chance for anyone to take advantage of." Lin Huiru pinched her temples, she was in a bad mood, how many things would be delayed.
Fortunately, no one dares to do that yet. Lin Huiru breathed a sigh of relief after hastily correcting a few loopholes. Fortunately, no major mistakes have been made, otherwise this matter will be troublesome.
Now she has collected a lot of house deeds and land deeds, as well as some cultural and jade pendants. Fortunately, the place she chose is still big enough to barely accommodate these things. In addition, all the branches across the country are almost opened. This kind of business that makes money lying down has attracted the envy of many people. Therefore, she has sent many people to guard against those valuable things. These things, especially It was a land deed, and without a few, she would have been busy for a long time.
"Bai Shu, go and build another yard. I always feel that I can't let it go here. After all, people come and go here, and it's not safe to put some things here." Lin Huiru looked at the thick house in the room. With a thick pile of title deeds, he frowned and locked the box again.
After all, there were many master thieves in ancient times, so she always needs to be more cautious.
Chapter 464
Bai Shu immediately turned her head to get busy. When Lin Huiru confirmed that there were no problems with the regulations that needed to be filed with the government, she casually flipped through the ledger next to her. .
Zhou Man'er came to borrow a hundred taels of silver just a few days ago, and she didn't know what it was. In fact, Lin Huiru gave Zhou Maner a lot of money. After all, she was from a good background, and she learned things quickly, which helped her a lot. She never lost the chain at the critical moment, so the monthly money totaled forty taels.
It is said that several months have passed, and I should be able to save some more or less. This sudden borrowing of such a large sum of money may be due to something.
Coupled with the fact that Lin Huiru had often seen the jade pendant that Zhou Maner was wearing as a mortgage, doubts arose in her heart, she packed her things and went to the shop. But unfortunately, Zhou Man'er was sick today, so Lin Huiru had to rush to the staff dormitory she had prepared before dark
. Huiru entered Zhou Man'er's room in the dark. There was only one dim lamp lit in the room, and there was a faint cough from time to time, which made her feel uneasy.
Lin Huiru walked quickly to the bed. At this time, Zhou Man'er's face was pale and her eyes were closed tightly. She looked very painful, and there was still a little cold sweat on her forehead.
"What's wrong with you? Why didn't you grab medicine when you were sick, and didn't come to tell me?" Lin Huiru was a little angry, she reached out and touched Zhou Man'er's forehead, the extremely high body temperature made her hands unable to bear it Shrunk a bit.
Zhou Man'er opened her eyes with some difficulty, and said weakly, "Why are you here... I'm fine, I'll be fine after a night of sleep, ahem..."
Seeing her high fever, Lin Huiru couldn't help but rejoice that she was this way today Go all the way. After all, the medical conditions in ancient times are really hard to compliment, and if it is not good, it may directly kill people. It's probably too late to ask a doctor now, so she can only ask Bai Zhu to boil hot water, and take out the spare antipyretic medicine herself.
"How long have you been like this?" Lin Huiru asked while sitting on the edge of the bed looking at Zhou Man'er with flushed cheeks.
"Only two days..." Zhou Man'er lowered her head, her voice was faint.
Lin Huiru wrapped the quilt up for her helplessly, "Tell me the truth, what happened recently, I happened to go to the commercial bank to check the accounts today and saw that you borrowed money, if there is anything you can't tell me directly, if I don't think Something's wrong, you're so stupid that you can get a high fever."
"You know... I didn't want to trouble you, but I was afraid that you wouldn't accept it if I gave it back." Zhou Man'er squeezed Lin Huiru forcibly. Embarrassed laugh out.
"Okay, if you give me the money, I will definitely want it. Tell me what happened, why do you still need so much money when you are sick?" Lin Huiru continued to ask instinctively.
Zhou Man'er didn't hide this matter from her, "Recently, my father wrote to me, saying that the family's business was in a downturn and there was a big problem, and he wanted to borrow some money from me, so I helped to borrow it." Just wait for it to be repaid slowly in the future."
"I remember that the county over there also supports the loan now, why doesn't he go by himself? It's only one hundred taels, and if you use the mansion as collateral, it will be enough for a few hundred taels." Lin Huiru frowned. She always felt that this matter was not that simple. She and Zhou Man'er were sisters again, so this matter couldn't just be done hastily.
Zhou Man'er sketched a wry smile, and she wiped away her tears, "Sister Xiaoru, I really don't know what to do. Now that my family's business is in a downturn, my father forced me to go back and get married. This time it's not the previous one, but the neighbor There is a person in the village, who is much older than me. If I marry, I will be just a concubine, but he said that he will give my father a way, so my father will force me to go back. I don't want to go back. I can only borrow money He...but..."
"Okay, you don't need to say any more, don't worry, I will definitely not let you marry someone you don't like. Besides, how can a father be responsible for his own problems? Don't worry, no matter how much money I give to your family, I will not let you go back. And can that person have as much money as me? I am now one of the best businessmen, and following me is no better than marrying a local rich man Okay?" Lin Huiru rubbed the top of Zhou Man'er's hair and said softly.
Zhou Man'er's eyes were red again when he was touched by these words, "Thank you, Miss Ru, but you can't be responsible for my affairs, and I can't marry you. If my father really needs me, I..."
"Don't say such irresponsible words. What will I do without you here? At worst, I will give you a raise. You let me go. I will help you find out what's wrong with your house when you go back today. There is the person your father asked you to marry, who can solve the problem, and there is no need to lose a daughter. Okay, I will leave the medicine here for you, take a pill when you get up tomorrow, and maybe it will be better the day after tomorrow. It's getting late, I'll be leaving first." Just as Baishu cooked porridge and came in, Lin Huiru estimated the time, got up, patted on his clothes, and left.
Today is the day when Xu Ziqiao went to Chunfeng Building to inquire about the news, and she didn't know whether things were going well or not, so she had to go back and take a look.
Bai Shu knew what Lin Huiru was worried about, and after helping Zhou Maner close the door, she chased after her. The coachman hurriedly returned to the Prime Minister's mansion
. As expected, Xu Ziqiao's body smelled very strong, and there was also a smell of alcohol on his body, and he looked a little unclear. As soon as he saw Lin Huiru, Xu Ziqiao pressed over and hugged her tightly.
Lin Huiru's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, "What's going on?" "It's not
what you think, let's go back, and I'll talk about today's affairs slowly." Bai Qianyi stepped forward to help Xu Ziqiao pull up.
However, Xu Ziqiao hugged Lin Huiru even harder, "Xiaoru..."
Lin Huiru curled up the corners of his lips after listening to his whisper, "I'm not Xiaoru, you hugged the wrong person." "
You It's my Xiaoru, you smell like Xiaoru, don't lie to me, I have a headache." Xu Ziqiao's voice was a little weak, and it sounded like he was suffering from too much alcohol.
Lin Huiru patted him on the back helplessly, "Are you a dog? Alright, let's go into the room, Bai Zhu, please go and make sober soup."
"No, I want to drink what you cooked. I cooked it when you were drunk." Xu Ziqiao's nonsense now made Lin Huiru sure that he was drunk, otherwise Xu Ziqiao usually spoke in such a way that would make people The tone of people's goosebumps falling all over the place.
"Okay, okay, I'll cook for you, I'm going to be crushed to death by you, can you go back to the room first?" Lin Huiru could only coax Xu Ziqiao back to the room with a tone like coaxing a child.
Chapter 465 Drunk
But even after returning to the room, Xu Ziqiao was still clinging to Lin Huiru. Lin Huiru finally took the brown candy off Xu Ziqiao's body, and found Bai Qianyi while he was out making sober soup, "Why?" What's going on?"
"The people who went today were not only the four oirans, but also the third highness, the third highness forced him to drink, but the adults couldn't refuse, so he drank a few more glasses, and it became like this." Bai Qianyi was a little confused. Helpless, but also feel that this thing is weird.
Lin Huiru realized something was wrong almost immediately, "Why did the Third Highness go? Shouldn't the Third Highness be in confinement now?" "I came out a few days ago, but I have been lingering in the place of
fireworks. I did it on purpose, but I was really depressed." Bai Qianyi shook his head and sighed.
That's a very odd thing to do.
"Isn't Your Majesty the most taboo place for fireworks? Before King Xiang went there, he kept away from others. Now is a special time. His Highness does not actively move forward, but deliberately stomps on His Majesty's forbidden area. He is not asking for his own destruction." Is it?" Lin Huiru felt that this matter was so chaotic that it was indescribable, and it was Tang Junyi's and Tang Jingyi's.
Chunfeng Building is really a big tree, it can attract so many people.
But...
Lin Huiru suddenly had another idea in her mind, but it was just a guess, she put the steaming sober soup aside to dry, and asked again, "Then did you find anything else? "
"I don't know. I couldn't escape after being entangled by the third highness and the oiran. I don't know how King Xiang is going. Maybe I will send news tomorrow." Bai Qianyi was also a little uncertain, after all, what happened today One has no head and no brain, and all kinds of things collide in a mess.
"Hey, anyway, if you want him to go tomorrow, I think it's better to let it go." Lin Huiru didn't really see Xu Ziqiao drinking, but he must feel uncomfortable when he was drunk, so he insisted on picking It's really not worth it to hurt your body like this.
After returning to the room, Lin Huiru finally coaxed Xu Ziqiao to drink the hangover soup. But the drunk Xu Ziqiao was very energetic and refused to sleep, and even hugged Lin Huiru tightly, "Tell me a story." "
What story to tell, did you sleep?" If she yawned, she was already so sleepy that her soul was torn apart.
Xu Ziqiao's eyes were half-opened and half-closed, and there was no trace of drunkenness on his face. If it wasn't for the smell of alcohol and this shameless coquettishness, Lin Huiru would never believe that he was drunk. I tell stories and I sleep." After speaking, Xu Ziqiao lay down and covered the quilt, and looked at Lin Huiru obediently.
Lin Huiru really couldn't bear to refuse this appearance, she sighed helplessly, rubbed her temples to organize her thoughts, "A long time ago, a princess was born in a kingdom, but the princess' mother died unfortunately ..."
"It's too miserable, change to another." Xu Ziqiao said.
Lin Huiru's face darkened, "A long time ago, there was a family with a clever child named Little Red Riding Hood. One day, Little Red Riding Hood's mother asked Little Red Riding Hood to deliver snacks to her grandmother in the forest..." "Why did the
elders Living alone in the forest? Where is their father, why is he so rebellious?" Xu Ziqiao frowned slightly, looking serious.
"It's just a story. Why do you ask so many questions? Okay, okay, can I change it..." Lin Huiru felt frustrated, and then had to calm down and make up a story by herself, "It's still been a long time. A long time ago, there was a free fairy in the sky, her life was unfettered, but one day, because she accidentally entered the forbidden area of ââthe fairy world, she came to the human world, and could never return to the fairy world." "Then she is so pitiful, the human
world How can it compare to the fairy world?" Xu Ziqiao hugged the pillow, sounding a bit regretful.
Lin Huiru smiled, "That's not necessarily the case. At first, the fairy was not used to it. She even reincarnated into a family and married like an ordinary mortal girl. She married a frail scholar. It's a pity that the scholar Her family status is not high, and even the fairy is always bullied. But the fairy is unyielding, and uses what she knows in the fairy world to feed herself well, and quickly solves the predicament and becomes the most wealthy person." "Then she really is
. It's very powerful." Xu Ziqiao whispered next to him again, because Lin Huiru's tone was soft and somewhat vicissitudes, he soon began to fight with his upper and lower eyelids.
"Of course, because she is a god. She always thought that if she came, she would be safe, and then she had to find a real like-minded person. But after a long time, she realized that the scholar was her destined person. .Although life is hard, she also enjoys it. Later, the scholar lived up to everyone's expectations and was admitted to fame, and the fairy also relied on her own magic power to make her life prosperous. In Luanshi Zhihong, the two lived happily ever after." Lin Huiru was so sleepy that her thoughts were messed up, and she ended hastily. She was worried that Xu Ziqiao would find fault again, but after she finished speaking, she unexpectedly found that Xu Ziqiao had fallen asleep.
Lin Huiru breathed a sigh of relief, sighed in his heart that he had fallen asleep, and then extinguished the candle and fell asleep peacefully.
The next morning, when she woke up, Xu Ziqiao seemed to have just woken up, and she looked a little dazed. Probably because of the hangover, he was suffering from a headache, so he sat there and rubbed the space between his eyebrows with his hands.
"It's rare that you didn't get up so early today." Lin Huiru yawned, turned over and tightened the quilt, planning to go back to sleep again.
Xu Ziqiao was a little depressed, and she got greedy yesterday without knowing it, "How did I come back yesterday?" "
You insist on hugging me, my waist is almost broken by you, and you don't want Qianyi to help, it's not me I helped you back." Lin Huiru closed her eyes and spoke lazily.
Hearing what she said, Xu Ziqiao froze. The naked meaning of these words is that he clings to people, and he is still in front of many people. He calmed down his thoughts, "Really?"
"Otherwise, is there a fake? They all saw it yesterday. After you came back, you clamored to drink the hangover soup I made. After I cooked it, I came back and saw you stripping yourself clean on the bed." Look at me. After drinking hangover soup, you still..." Before Lin Huiru finished speaking, a big hand covered her mouth.
At this moment, Xu Ziqiao's psychological shadow area was beyond measure.
As the saying goes, it's not terrible to be drunk, but the terrible thing is that there are people who help you recall the details.
Chapter 466 Interlocking
Lin Huiru blinked, and felt funny when she saw Xu Ziqiao's pale and green face. She pushed Xu Ziqiao's hand away, "Why. You forgot all of this? Yesterday you finished drinking the hangover soup and insisted on pulling Let me tell you a story, and I am so sleepy that I have to coax you to sleep."
At this moment, Xu Ziqiao couldn't believe that these were all things he could do, and his heart was already covered by shadows. He covered his forehead and didn't even have the face to look at Lin Huiru.
It was rare to see Xu Ziqiao's embarrassment, Lin Huiru also woke up, turned over and got up and continued to chatter, "Have you remembered? You were so cute yesterday, and you are as spoiled as a child. "
Stop it. I won't drink any more in the future." Xu Ziqiao repeatedly sighed in his heart that drinking was a mistake, and then he was determined to never drink again.
"I haven't asked you yet, is the flower wine good?" Lin Huiru raised her eyebrows, her tone a little sour.
Xu Ziqiao was dumbfounded, and hurriedly explained to Lin Huiru, "Xiao Ru, it's not what you think. I didn't know what happened yesterday and ran into the Third Highness. The Third Highness invited me to drink. I had something to do yesterday and couldn't leave. , a few oirans, two playing music, one dancing and one accompanying Tang Jingyi, Tang Jingyi poured all my wine. If you don't believe me, you can ask Bai Qianyi, he was there." "Okay,
I But just casually asking, why are you so nervous, I also asked him yesterday, why do you think Tang Jingyi dared to appear in such a place at this juncture, is it because he is impatient?" Lin Huiru thought about this. She already had a rough guess, but she always felt that if Xu Ziqiao was involved, the predictions of the two would be more accurate.
"I also think it's very strange. It stands to reason that he has just withdrawn from some messy things now, so he should avoid suspicion. At this time, he is lingering in the flower building drunk and unconscious. I don't think he is really depraved. I'm afraid that Hai Ling has a conspiracy behind this matter. But Wan Qixuan has already been taken into custody, who else can he use?" Xu Ziqiao sat cross-legged and seriously thought about this issue by the bed.
"If you think in this way, why not think about the current situation of this matter? He may have done it deliberately for others to see. Before Chunfenglou came out, he didn't have the problem of hanging around brothels. But Chunfenglou once Come out, it's this juncture again, so people have to think about whether he has anything to do with Chunfenglou." Lin Huiru blinked.
Xu Ziqiao was a little confused, "You mean, even Tang Jingyi has a relationship with the people of Anguo? If he really has the ability to collude, how could he have reached this point." "That's not what I said, but I
think He had no reason to collude with people from Anguo. Before the New Year's Eve, he had almost never had any contact with people from Anguo, and when he used Tangtang, he was always careful to hold this sister in his palm. But Anguo beat The idea is to get married, fundamentally speaking, they are not the same people at all." Lin Huiru turned over and changed his posture, and he didn't pretend to be a joke, "I think it is very likely that he was deliberately acting in this matter, or He joined hands with others."
Now Xu Ziqiao fell into a short board, "What do you mean?" "
When I entered the palace before, His Majesty deliberately hinted that he would pretend not to know what Tang Jingyi was doing. He is favored, and there are crimes waiting to be put on him. Don't forget, Tangtang is the most favored by His Majesty. For this alone, His Majesty will not be able to forgive Tang Jingyi. But now Tang Jingyi is free. Either His Majesty did some tricks in it, or someone who has something to say is pleading. If it is just a single pleading, His Majesty may not agree, but what if he is a pawn?" Lin Hui Such as pretending to be mysterious.
"Your Majesty wants to use him?" Xu Ziqiao still didn't understand.
Lin Huiru shook his head, "It's His Majesty and King Xiang who want to use him. Now Anguo people are lurking in the capital, and they have even recruited many officials. Although we have the list in hand now, but We have to guard against the matter of the Ministry of Punishment. The spies who want to find out about Anguo now, apart from Chunfenglou, are planning to rebel against one of them, but we don't know who has status among them, so it's better to put someone in the past."
"Insert someone? Tang Jingyi?" Xu Ziqiao was stunned. This matter was too wild and unconstrained, and he even couldn't laugh or cry, "How did you deduce these things?" "Guess. Tang Jingyi wants to live, we need another
spy , if you send others to seek refuge, you will definitely not be able to gain trust. But Tang Jingyi is different, he has a criminal record, since we have been infiltrated by Anguo's spies, most of us know that Tang Jingyi's unscrupulous It's a well-known thing. Now what is more attractive than Tang Jingyi, a down-and-out prince is also a prince, and no matter how small a fly is, it is meat. Tang Jingyi has not yet been convicted on the surface. I want a chess piece, a bargaining chip, if they extend a helping hand to Tang Jingyi at this time, think about it, if it was you, someone would give you a hand when you were desperate, and give you a big one Good thing, do you want to repay him for obeying his advice?" Lin Huiru became more and more energetic as she spoke, her eyes sparkling.
But Xu Ziqiao was a little puzzled, "No."
"Well, I shouldn't ask you, you are not a normal person." Lin Huiru covered his forehead and continued, "If Anguo uses those infiltrating spies If you extend a helping hand to Tang Jingyi, it will undoubtedly be a life-saving straw, and trust is only one more opportunity away. Using Tang Jingyi's words can make them get twice the result with half the effort, so Tang Jingyi's chances of successfully breaking in are still very high. If you come up with a list, then this matter can be resolved without a single soldier, and Tang Jingyi can also be pardoned. But after all, Tangtang is what His Majesty cares about the most. For Tang Jingyi, as long as he saves one life, he can He will not be greedy for the opportunity to make a comeback."
After this push and criticism, Xu Ziqiao admired Lin Huiru in a five-body cast, "Is your idea usually tricky? If you think this way, things should go smoothly. proceed, but we don't know if they have this calculation, and if Anguo offers generous terms, Tang Jingyi may not be unswayed."
Chapter 467
"He won't waver. There are too many spearheads against An Guo in this matter, and he doesn't look down on An Guo. He won't do such a risky thing. Otherwise, even if it succeeds, he will It's not worth being controlled by others and suffering a lifetime of infamy." Lin Huiru said, and suddenly straightened up narcissistically, "Now my firm has made many people jealous. Others can learn the appearance but not the essence. In the future We are still far behind."
Xu Ziqiao smiled helplessly when he heard the latter words, "Yes, now your firm is sung by everyone." "Not only that
, other countries will be jealous to death Yes, it's a pity they don't have that kind of financial resources. Yesterday when you were away, my business encountered troublemakers, and I went to the patrol camp to fight with them. You don't know that a group of men say that I'm green in the face How relieved it is."
"Relieved?" Xu Ziqiao was a little puzzled.
"Uh..." Lin Huiru gestured at her at a loss, "It's nothing, but I was in a bad mood after hearing about it yesterday." Suddenly, someone knocked on the door, and
Bai Shu's voice was a little hurried outside. , "Master Xu, madam, King Xiang is here with the soldiers and horses from the patrol battalion, and they are waiting in the front hall."
Lin Huiru was taken aback for a moment, what is this trick to seal them up?
"Put on your clothes first, maybe something happened yesterday." Xu Ziqiao frowned, with a vague premonition in his heart.
The momentum outside was huge, attracting many people to stop and watch. King Xiang was sipping tea there, "You guys go out first, this matter is related to court secrets, just wait outside." As soon as these words came out,
Xu Ziqiao and Lin Huiru probably knew that he was here for the secret agents of An Guo that's it.
"Your Highness is so majestic." Xu Ziqiao's heart was no longer the slightest displeasure. If what happened yesterday was really what Lin Huiru reasoned, he would not know how many times Tang Junyi had tricked him into it.
"Master Xu, why should you be so eccentric? At this moment, if you don't use this excuse, it's hard to see you, Master Xu." Tang Junyi put down his teacup disapprovingly, and looked up at Xu Ziqiao, "Thanks to Master Xu yesterday." , The king has almost checked everything that needs to be investigated, Mr. Xu just waits comfortably." Lin
Huiru frowned, Tang Junyi wanted to take credit for this, "It's not good for your highness to cross the river and tear down the bridge like this. Everyone has been counted in, and today it is like this again, is it easy for His Highness to employ people?" "Ma'am, I have
misunderstood what I said, and the merits will definitely not be lost by then, but it is just drinking some wine. It is a great thing to be able to enjoy the benefits of being a fisherman." Tang Junyi squinted his eyes, seeing Lin Huiru's sharp teeth and sharp mouth made him quite unhappy.
"That's right, then please ask your highness to do it to the end and send the Buddha to the west. Why don't you tell us by the way, did you intentionally use Xu Ziqiao to sell Tang Jingyi's current down-and-out prince's persona? Put him in Anguo's spies?" Lin Huiru raised her eyebrows, and she didn't mean to be polite to Tang Junyi at all. At this time, she didn't believe that Tang Junyi would turn his back on him.
Hearing her inference, Tang Junyi was a little surprised, and felt a little bit emotional in his heart, as expected of a woman he admired, "Madam is so smart, but I don't know where Madam got this inference." After receiving Tang Junyi's reply,
Lin Huiru raised her chin at Xu Ziqiao vigorously, her expression was very cute. Xu Ziqiao also smiled indulgently, the intimate behavior between the two made Tang Junyi rarely feel jealous.
"It's not difficult, just guess and guess." Lin Huiru shrugged. It would be too troublesome to deduce this matter again.
"Ma'am is really clever. If that's the case, I thank Mr. Xu for getting himself into trouble yesterday. In a few days, in order for the third child to gain their trust, I may have to go to your mansion , I hope you two will forgive me." After saying wow, Tang Junyi stood up, opened the door and walked out.
Looking at Xu Ziqiao again, the veins on his brows were twitching. Why did he feel that Tang Junyi didn't treat himself as an outsider too much, and he was really comfortable coming and going as he wanted.
Helpless, such words cannot be said in front of others, Xu Ziqiao adjusted his mentality, after all, there are more important things at the moment, "Wan Qixuan has been secretly escorted to Beijing, do you want to go with me?
" Otherwise, I have been imprisoned in the brothel by that person for several months, if not because of my status, I really want to sell him into a brothel as good as Longyang to let him feel it." Lin Huiru was gearing up, her eyes seemed to be Faint sparks popped out.
It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, but she remembers this account clearly.
Xu Ziqiao helplessly reached out and touched the broken hair on Lin Huiru's forehead, "Clean up, I'll take you there after lunch." "
Okay." Lin Huiru nodded, already thinking about how to make things difficult Wan Qixuan is here.
Because of the secret detention, although the current Dali Temple looks the same as usual on the surface, it is actually full of dark parts. The arrival of Xu Ziqiao and Lin Huiru together surprised Dali Siqing a little bit.
Most of the affairs in the south are unknown, so Dali Temple Secretary cautiously asked, "If Mr. Xu is interrogating the prisoner, will the wife also accompany him?" "
Yes, she will go in with me and prepare two cups of hot tea. There is no need to send others in." Xu Ziqiao ordered in a cold voice, and stepped into the gate, Xu Ziqiao who was in front of others and behind him became more and more different.
After all, Wan Tengxuan is also a decent person, and the place where he is detained is considered clean. This is not the first time Lin Huiru has entered a place like a cell. Looking at Wan Teng, who is wearing a clean prison uniform and has unruly hair on his temples Xuan felt a little angry.
This product is really leisurely.
"Long time no see, Mr. Xu and Mrs. Xu are getting more and more energetic." Wan Tuxuan turned his back to them, and his tone was a little bit emotional.
"Thanks to you, I have fully realized what the true meaning of life is. Now I am in better health and more delicious." Lin Huiru raised her eyebrows, and choked back unceremoniously.
Wan Tengxuan laughed dryly and turned around. He looked at Xu Ziqiao with a somewhat provocative look, "Master Xu is here today, but he wants to use lynching for interrogation? This is not allowed by our country's laws and regulations."
"Your Majesty, don't worry about it. This matter is going on in secret. Of course, you don't know about His Majesty's order. If you want to die decently, it's better to recruit truthfully." Qixuan could speak harder and give him a chance to torture him. If he didn't hear the screams of this kind of person, he would feel puzzled.
Chapter 468 Provocation
Wan Chengxuan sneered, and knew that his death was imminent, "If you die, you will die. There is a prince on the left and right to be your back, and I will not lose money in my life. Just ask Mr. Xu to bring the paper and pen, and I will take care of it carefully." How about writing down all of Tang Jingyi's crimes?"
"I thought that Mr. Wancheng was still a proud man, but I didn't expect to recruit him so soon. It really doesn't make any sense." Lin Huiru curled her lips and stepped back. sat down.
Little did he know that Wan Yixuan was not a soft persimmon now, he smiled, "I thought Mrs. Lin was a heroic and chaste woman, but I didn't expect to live in a brothel. It's really meaningless." This sentence attracted Lin
Hui As if the eyebrows were twitching, a bad thought spread in his heart.
"What do you want to do?" Xu Ziqiao also frowned, his expression full of haze. It made Lin Huiru suffer for several months, and it has always been a headache for him. Now Wan Yixuan is still deliberately provoking, this seems to be obvious and cannot be more obvious.
"It's nothing, I just feel that the words "surviving in an ignoble manner" should be widely spread in people's hearts." Wan Yixuan smiled softly, his delicate face was full of insidiousness.
Lin Huiru frowned, "Don't ask, he just wants to make my matter in the brothel public, anyway, it will be done as soon as he changes, you don't care, this very limelight will go down." "Why
should Let the limelight of this matter go, Madam is worth learning from everyone. Moreover, I originally thought that Madam was only proficient in business, but I didn't expect that she is also very good at judging men's preferences and special hobbies. I admire this point, and I am willing to bow down to someone as versatile as Madam." Wan Yixuan can no longer be called a suspected provocation, it is clearly a naked provocation!
Lin Huiru was still calm, but Xu Ziqiao couldn't sit still, "If you don't want to have your tongue cut out, you'd better keep your mouth clean."
"Hey, Master Xu is angry? Are you going to abuse lynching? It seems that Master Xu, who is said to be selfless, is nothing more than that." Wan Yixuan is smart. In order to prevent himself from being beaten by Xu Ziqiao, he left slowly. The prison door is a little farther away, and he is standing there now, a provocateur with a strange look.
"Isn't it good to live well? Why do you have to die? There are so many good things in this great world. If there is a way to heaven, you don't go. If there is no way to hell, you jump in. Wan Chengxuan, can you see what the situation is talking about?" Lin Huiru rubbed the center of her brows. Although it is really bad to say some bad words, she believes that Wan Yixuan also has the heart but not the courage.
"Look at the situation? The situation is that the people at the Three Gorges Pass are convinced of this matter. No matter how you explain it, the fact that the Prime Minister's wife is a strange woman who is good at sex is indelible, and those Mrs. Lin you taught Things like this may be widely circulated in brothels in the near future. Aren't you proud of this kind of thing?" Wan Chengxuan laughed mockingly.
Xu Ziqiao's hand beside her was already tightly clenched into a fist, and Lin Huiru also had some difficulty understanding this person's desire to seek his own death.
"Proud of your old mother, I think you are living impatiently." Lin Huiru clapped his hands, and after a noise outside the prison, many guards came in, and they opened the prison door tacitly and put Wan Chengxuan under custody. out.
No matter how Wan Qixuan yelled and provoked, Lin Huiru drank tea leisurely there as if he hadn't heard it, and when Wan Qixuan was tied up, what awaited him was a laughing punishment without any trace of flesh and blood.
Lin Huiru and Xu Ziqiao were sitting there drinking tea, and Wan Yixuan was beaten up and down, and his mouth was stuffed with a ball of cloth so that it was difficult to speak.
"Mr. Wanqi likes to laugh, why don't you just laugh enough? The capital pays the most attention to hospitality. I hope you can enjoy it slowly. Don't be polite to us." Lin Huiru curled her lips into a smile , only let Wan Qixuan see the endless evil spirit in it.
Xu Ziqiao didn't feel uncomfortable watching Wan Chengxuan twitching from the side, now he just wanted to go up and give Wan Chengxuan a big mouth, "Xiao Ru, even if you don't say anything about this matter, I can't bear it."
"I can't bear it either, but you can't do anything to him now, or there will be a clue in the interrogation in the future. If you want to do something to him, you'd better wait before the execution. You should know this better than me. In places like the Three Gorges Pass, those who have been brainwashed by such people all the year round have wrong views and regard the Wanqi family as their masters. Facing some people who have been bewitched, no one will believe what they say." Lin Huiru Shrugging her shoulders, she had witnessed too many strange things, and her mentality had already been adjusted and couldn't be better.
Xu Ziqiao let out a long breath, and looked at Lin Huiru with a little distressed eyes, "Don't worry, no matter what others say..." "The
truth is there, no one can tolerate criticism, and it's just a little trick, you forget me Do you still know the owner of the brothel? It's not like this guy is the only one who can open a brothel. At that time, I wanted to maintain a perfect body, so of course I had to come up with something to stabilize the old bustard there. The clearer clears himself, whatever he says Already." Lin Huiru sighed silently in her heart, but luckily she met the owner of a brothel long before that, and the two got along pretty well, and she didn't know how to do flesh and blood business, but she still got into a brothel. For her own sake, she will share some private matters by the way, so that even if things get serious, she will have something to say.
It's a pity that it is inevitable to be poked in the spine for a while.
While the two of them were chatting, Wan Yixuan was almost suffocated from laughing. Lin Huiru waved his hand to signal people to stop, "How is it? Have you laughed enough? Let's write the pleadings first." As soon as the words fell,
someone Handing over the pen and paper, Wan Yixuan was already exhausted, his eyes were filled with scarlet. This kind of laughing punishment is much more painful than some flesh and blood pains.
"I will only give you the effort of a cup of tea. If you don't write a cup of tea, or if your writing is not comprehensive enough, then we can only come back tomorrow. You can continue to laugh as much as you want today. We didn't abuse lynching . " Lin Huiru smacked her mouth, she was like a devil at this moment.
With a rag stuffed in his mouth, Wan Chengxuan hesitated and couldn't speak. Even if he thought about it, it wouldn't be very nutritious. Lin Huiru simply interrupted his thoughts, "Stop whining, and a dead dog!" Like a dog, I don't like to listen to your stinking mouth, and I can't tolerate you talking about conditions now. Mr. Wancheng, this person has to learn to look at the situation."
Seeing Lin Huiru who was acting strangely, Xu Ziqiao breathed a sigh of relief. Originally, if Lin Huiru was calm and abnormal, he would be worried, but now that Lin Huiru is still in the mood of torture and revenge, that is the normal Lin Huiru.
Chapter 469 Rabies
After saying this, Lin Huiru had no intention of talking nonsense anymore, and stood up with a chair in his hands as if to leave, but Wan Chengxuan suddenly picked up a pen. If this laughing punishment continues, there is no guarantee that he will not die here.
plan pass. Lin Huiru pursed her lips and smiled, sat aside and calmed down and waited for a while. The full sheet of paper was densely packed with crimes related to himself and Tang Jingyi, which was enough to determine the death of thousands of people. , coupled with his signature, even if he no longer exists in this world, the convincing power in it is even more convincing than a mouth.
"Let's go." Lin Huiru gave it to Xu Ziqiao after carefully reading it, feeling a lot lighter.
Xu Ziqiao's face was calm, and she didn't look at it in a hurry when she took it. After leaving the door, Xu Ziqiao sighed and said, "Are you going to let him go like this?" "How is it possible, but I can't sell him to a brothel, right?
" .Anyway, it will be necessary to convict him in the future, and it will be fine to go to the execution at that time. Besides, isn't this piece of paper just a guarantee for myself, and now I can't guarantee how many people want to kill him just to excuse myself." Lin Huiru shrugged, recalling that period of time was a rich experience.
What's more, she has nothing to do with him.
"They will be secretly detained. After all, there are too many officials involved in the case. Even if Tang Jingyi has the guarantee of survival, they don't." Xu Ziqiao responded, but could only give up.
At this time, Lin Huiru suddenly remembered what Yu Fengqing told her, and her heart skipped a beat.
She pulled Xu Ziqiao out of the patrol camp in a hurry, got into the carriage and said urgently, "I told you before, about the Meridian Army, did you help me find it?" "It's not too late
, However, it is not a confidential file. It should be retrieved by going to the Ministry of Officials. Although it cannot be brought out, it is still possible to go in and read it. It's just that your majesty is suspicious. If you read it without the slightest opportunity, it may arouse suspicion. .Especially now when you are still being framed as an agent of Anguo, it is better to be more cautious in doing things." Xu Ziqiao frowned. He was very concerned about this matter at first, but there are too many things recently, so he completely dismissed this matter. Forget it.
Lin Huiru's thoughts turned quickly, and she must at least do what she said, "Let's see if I can use Anguo or Wan Qixuan to play this time. Although it is a bit risky, the sooner I know about this matter, the more at ease I will be." ""
"This matter should not be rushed, it needs to be discussed in the long term, if it is an unjust case involving tens of thousands of people, it may be difficult to give an explanation in a short time. Besides..." Xu Ziqiao was a little worried.
Lin Huiru also fell silent, she knew what Xu Ziqiao was thinking.
This kind of big case that was wrongly judged due to the fault of one person, in the final analysis, the problem lies with the emperor. If such a big case is to be ordinary, it is necessary for the emperor to make amends to so many people. Second, some people may stubbornly think that this matter will lose the royal face.
It's really tricky.
On the way, Xu Ziqiao and Lin Huiru parted ways because they still had official duties, and only Lin Huiru returned to the prime minister's mansion alone.
As soon as he entered the door, Bai Shu ran over in a panic, "It's not good, ma'am, today I always feel that something is wrong with Xiao Hei, he neither comes out of the yard nor eats, and there is always a humming sound, and the servants dare not enter "
Lin Huiru frowned, "What's the matter? It's not easy to tell people not to get close to it. It's not easy to be
bitten by it. " Don't go there yet." In Bai Shu's heart, Xiao Hei has long been regarded as a beast, although he looks very docile, but if he goes crazy, he is definitely no less than a tiger or leopard.
"I'm not going to you? You have to see what's going on first." Lin Huiru frowned and quickened her pace. There is no vaccine at this time. If it is rabies or something, it will be troublesome.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be inexplicably mad.
Outside the yard, Lin Huiru heard Xiao Hei's low growl, which was the low growl that dogs only make when they threaten.
Out of pity, she didn't open the door either, but chose to climb up the wall from the rockery to watch from afar.
Xiao Hei in the yard was very quiet. Although he made threatening sounds from time to time, there was no sign of rabies attack.
"Xiao Hei." Lin Huiru opened his mouth and called out tentatively.
Hearing the voice of his familiar master, Xiao Hei suddenly became quiet, turned his head and immediately found Lin Huiru's direction, wagged his tail and sat down very well.
"No problem." Lin Huiru was also a little puzzled, after all, the defensive state just now was true.
The next moment, Xiao Hei suddenly stood up uncomfortably, and continued to guard against the direction of the other end of the yard, and the low growls were endless. However, because Lin Huiru was there, he still leaned towards Lin Huiru while looking in one direction.
From the looks of it, Xiao Hei seemed to be on guard against something.
"Ma'am, it's dangerous up there, or you'd better come down and wait for the adults to come back." Bai Shu looked at Lin Huiru worriedly, for fear that she would accidentally fall from the top.
Lin Huiru observed Xiao Hei for a while, at least confirmed that it was not rabies, and then jumped down, "I ask you, have there been any wild cats, dogs, rats, etc. in your yard recently?" Bai Zhu shook his head
blankly , "No, animals use smell to divide territory. If a dog like Xiao Hei sees it, other animals will run away." "Maybe, at least I think
he's fine, but he seems to be on guard Something. Maybe some small animal got into the yard and hid it, so it is very concerned about it, so leave him alone." Lin Huiru waved her hand after speaking, and walked back to the room quickly.
Regarding this matter, she only mentioned it briefly to Xu Ziqiao, and didn't pay much attention to it.
Until the night shift, she inexplicably heard noises in the yard. Xu Ziqiao was sleeping deeply next to her, so she wrapped her cloak and went out, looking for the sound.
Even under the bright moonlight, Lin Huiru saw a big butt running around in the garden of the mansion. It startled her at first, but when she called Xiao Hei tentatively, the huge monster ran towards her.
There was still a puddle of snow on Xiao Hei's nose that he didn't know when, which looked a little funny.
Lin Huiru breathed a sigh of relief, and touched the huge head, but then he had to wonder how Xiao Hei ran out.
She took Xiao Hei back to the backyard, and her face darkened instantly after seeing the tragedy of the door.
Chapter 470 Uninvited Guest
Xiao Hei had dug a huge gap in the courtyard door that she specially made, and the place where it was connected to the wall was already crumbling.
"Xiao Hei! What have you done?!" Lin Huiru raised his hand to teach Xiao Hei a lesson, but was startled by the way he suddenly arched his body and bared his teeth.
She withdrew her hand and took two steps back, but suddenly found that Xiao Hei was not wary of her, but behind her...
Lin Huiru hurriedly turned her head, just in time to see a figure sitting on the roof of the house in the backyard, who seemed to be holding something in her hand. Holding a wine gourd, he looks a bit chic with his head up to drink.
People scare people and scare people to death, Lin Huiru said silently in her heart.
"Aren't you afraid that your stomach will hurt if you sit there drinking?" Lin Huiru frowned, and immediately became wary.
The defense of the Xiangfu was watched by many people, not only Bai Qianyi, but also the red cavalry sent by the royal family. Since this person can appear here without anyone noticing, it shows that his martial arts attainments are not low.
I don't know if it was out of vigilance or what, the man didn't continue to sit on the high place, but turned over, jumped down, coughed twice, and threw the flagon aside casually. "This beast is originally called Xiao Hei."
"He's a dog, and it's not a good thing to throw trash around." Lin Huiru frowned, and suddenly understood why this kind of person would pick a dog's backyard.
Most of the guards are in places where there are people, and Xiao Hei is fierce, so there is no one around. It seems that this person must have been groping for a long time before he dared to come.
"It's just a gourd. The dog has a special person to take care of it. Cleaning a gourd is just easy. Besides, this gourd is worth a few taels of silver. The one I used is even more valuable." The man teased, Did not approach hastily.
"My dog ââhas someone to take care of it, but you don't. That probably proves that you are not as good as a dog." Lin Huiru couldn't help rolling her eyes. A gourd, this man even had the nerve to say, it seems that he is still being taken advantage of.
The man was a little dumb, and after a moment of silence, he smiled, "I've heard that Madam Lin is very eccentric, and I've learned something today."
"I'm overwhelmed, I can't compare to you kind of ghosts who climb over the wall. I don't know what you are here for?" Lin Huiru patted Xiao Hei's head next to him, and then patted his nose, signaling it to be quiet.
Lin Huiru knew in her heart that since this person dared to make such a bold move, he must have skills and attainments. Let alone Xiao Hei at this time, even Xiao Hei and Bai Qianyi may not be opponents.
Moreover, it is very likely that before she called someone, she was killed by this person, or ran away.
"Lin Huiru, from Zhengyang Town, married Xu Ziqiao, who was still a scholar, at the beginning of last year. After falling into the water, her temperament changed drastically. She can read books and calligraphy, and is better at doing business. She still does fresh jobs that no one has ever done before. He bought a ferocious vicious dog and was worth a hundred taels within three months. He always bought jade but some of the jade disappeared. After coming to the capital, he caused a perfume craze in the capital. He was worth a thousand taels within a month. All kinds of businesses are even worse. The medicine can cure all ailments. There are three hundred and sixty lines, and there is nothing wrong with it. In just one year, you will become rich in the world. It is amazing. When I saw it today, it is really extraordinary." The man said a lot like an endorsement, but Lin Hui If you tell me you are fooled.
Lin Huiru frowned, "Isn't it hard for you to memorize these things? Who told you this? It's weird. Are you here to write my life? Today is the day of my death?" Listening to
her After explaining the explanation, the man couldn't help laughing again, "You are really interesting, and you have those secrets about you."
A bad premonition rose from his heart, and there were many places that this man noticed arrive. In order to draw this person's attention, Lin Huiru had to start talking nonsense with him, "Where did you hear this version? Or is it that I have become a ghost in other people's mouths. Let me tell you, The rumors are unbelievable. I have the miracle medicine. If I really have it, I will be immortal long ago. I don't need to see a doctor a year ago." "
Ma'am, please don't change the topic. Let's make a deal. To be honest, I want that medicine, and I have money, so you can make a price." Hearing his voice, he was full of pride.
"Cut, if you really have that silver, how many taels of a wine gourd would you use, but you can't use a moonlight cup?" Lin Huiru was chatting nonsense with him while thinking of a way out in her heart.
From the moment he talked to Lin Huiru, the man was in a great mood, "It's fine to throw away some things after use. Money has to be spent wisely. Ma'am, your clothes are only a hundred taels, but your net worth... Do you wear it all on your body?"
"I'm sorry, I don't have the kind of thing you mentioned, and it doesn't exist in this world. Please come back while it's still early, maybe you can sleep through it." Lin Hui For example, in his heart, he called this person difficult.
"It's okay, even if it's worth waiting here for one night, madam, don't you really think about it? I can give you the price of 10,000 taels of gold. To tell you the truth, madam, I am determined to get this thing. If you don't want to, guess what. If I let the word out that you have a panacea that can cure everything of immortality, guess how many people will want to do something to you, I am afraid that the emperor who will use Xu Ziqiao heavily will pay attention to you." The man narrowed his eyes. Squinting, threatening.
Being able to say this proves that this person is not a good guy.
"Tsk, I don't know your name. This degree of insidiousness should be admired by everyone. Rumors only stop at the wise. Who would believe such things? It's okay for you to deceive a three-year-old child. You can think of such clumsy words, yes Didn't you get told that sheep dung is an elixir when you were a child?" Lin Huiru raised her eyebrows, since she couldn't avoid it, she couldn't lose her lip service.
"Hey, ma'am, this is wrong. People in the world are more enthusiastic about panacea than you might expect. I may say that a beggar who is about to die of starvation has a thousand gold people who don't believe it, but a person like you, who is spread by word of mouth, is still There are really many idiots who will believe it." Then, the man glanced at the moon to confirm the time, and took out a stack of gold tickets from his pocket. "Here is a 10,000 taels of gold ticket, Madam, think about it carefully."
Lin Huiru didn't know if the 10,000 taels of gold ticket was real, but this person must be very evil. Lin Huiru cleared her throat, "Then you are an idiot. As I said, there is no such thing in the world. If there is, I would have used it myself. You are not stupid to think of so many things. Don't be superstitious. There is no such thing, how can any emperor who has been obsessed with cultivating immortality and alchemy for thousands of years come out of it? At least the age should also increase, but look at the previous dynasties, which one died earlier than the other?"
