Don’t Show the Son

  Chapter 72 The Wrath of the Concubine【Seeking a monthly pass! 】

  Lin Xiu did not explain to him, and Liu Qingfeng did not ask.

After all, the assassin died and Lin Xiu was not seriously injured. He just told Lin Xiu, "Master Lin, it seems that someone really wants you to have an accident. You must be careful in the future. Don't leave the city unless it is necessary, even if you are in the city. , You have to bring a guard when you go out."

  Lin Xiu slightly clasped her fists and said, "Thank you, Mrs. Liu, for reminding you."

"Since Master Lin is okay, I will go back to the Yamen first." Liu Qingfeng and Lin Xiu nodded, and when they walked to the door, they paused slightly and said, "When Master Lin is free, you might as well think about it. Without letting anyone know whereabouts, how did your enemy know? You pretend to be a servant and leave through the back door. Can anyone see it?"

   Liu Qingfeng's voice fell, Lin Xiu's eyes narrowed slightly.

  He pretended to be a servant and left Lin Mansion through the back door. He was not alone in knowing.

  There is one more person.

This man is a subordinate of the Lin Mansion. He was one of the ten subordinates that his Majesty gave to Lin Mansion when he was promoted. At that time, he was cleaning the stables in the backyard and happened to hit Lin Xiu. At that time, he was surprised. Lin Xiu Just let him keep it secret, and left home without much thought.

   Lin Xiu immediately said: "Strongly!"

  Sun Dali hurried in from outside and said, "Master, what's the matter!"

  Lin Xiu said solemnly: "Go and find Lin Wu!"

  Lin Wu is the name of the servant. These servants who entered the Lin Mansion were also given the surname Lin.

  Sun Dali ran out and ran in after a while. His face was full of shock, and he stammered: "Young Master, Lin Wu, Lin Wu is dead!"

  Lin Mansion, in the wing room where the subordinates live.

Liu Qingfeng inspected a man's body on the ground and said, "Taking poison to commit suicide. It seems that he was prepared."

When he looked at Lin Xiu again, his face became very serious, and he said, "If it was bought by someone, he would not do this. Even the poison was prepared in advance. After Master Lin returned to the house, he hadn't tracked it down. Resolutely commit suicide, this person...should be a dead person raised by others."

  The status of a person who can afford the dead is by no means simple. It is very likely that he is a powerful lord in the capital.

Liu Qingfeng said: "If Master Lin wants to find out the true culprit of this case, I am afraid that he will have to find out the identity of the person. But since these dead men have been released, they must be investigated deeply, and nothing can be traced. Very deep, Master Lin should know better than me."

  Lin Xiu nodded and said, “Thank you, Mrs. Liu, for reminding me that there is no need to work **** this case.”

  This case cannot be investigated by the Secretary of the Qing dynasty.

  Even if it can be checked, I dare not check it.

  Under normal circumstances, when you encounter an assassination, the first thing you suspect is who you have offended recently.

  The only person who can be called offending Lin Xiu during this period should be Yongping Hou. After all, he will inherit the eldest son of the knighthood. Because Lin Xiu was sentenced to exile, he has reasons to hate Lin Xiu.

   However, Lin Xiu felt that this assassination should have nothing to do with the Yongping Marquis.

Even if Yongping Hou wants to assassinate him, he should wait until the matter is completely calmed down before doing anything else, otherwise there is no silver three hundred taels here. His Majesty has just been promoted to the Lin Family's nobility, so he sent someone to assassinate Lin Xiu, clearly not paying attention to the emperor. inside.

  However, it is also possible that Yongping Hou knew that others would think so, so he did the opposite, but this is a bit of a mat...

  What really made Lin Xiu get rid of the suspicion of the Yongping Marquis was that this assassination, and the last assassination, had one thing in common. They were all after Lin Xiu offended a force that could not be offended.

  The last time he offended Qin Cong, he was immediately assassinated. Even if something happened to him, the first suspect was the Qin family.

  This time he offended Yongpinghou. Within a few days, the assassin reappeared. If he died, Yongpinghou would be most suspected.

The two assassinations were too similar, obviously the same person’s style of acting. Although the king knew that Yang Xuan was exiled because Lin Xiu had few people, the Dongcheng Ya’s arrest was fast, and there were hundreds of people from the Secret Investigative Division. Wei knows that if someone wants to investigate this matter, it is not difficult to know the truth.

  Lin Xiu has too little information now, and there is no decent suspect.

  In other words, there are too many people who can doubt.

  Daxia's rich and powerful, which family does not want to marry Zhao Lingjun, except for those who have mentioned their relatives on the face, and those who are secretly thinking, it is impossible to know who is behind him.

   "There's still something to do with the Yamen, I'm leaving first." Liu Qingfeng arched his hands to Lin Xiu, but he stopped talking, Lin Xiu asked, "What else does Mrs. Liu do?"

   Liu Qingfeng hesitated for a long time, and finally asked, “In the last case, how did Master Lin figure out that Wang Er was the murderer?”

   Lin Xiuhe said differently: "Are you still thinking about this question?"

   Liu Qingfeng said: "These days, I have been reviewing the case. I think I haven't missed any clues. I also ask Master Lin to clarify."

  Lin Xiu shrugged and said, "I really guessed it."

   "Farewell!"

As soon as Liu Qingfeng left, Uncle Pingan and his wife walked into the room. Zhou Yun grabbed Lin Xiu’s hand and said, “It must be because of that marriage contract. My mother doesn't ask you anything, just asks you to be safe and sound in your life..."

  Uncle Ping An also said with a sullen face: "Even if the Zhao family is dissatisfied, this marriage contract must be returned!"

  It seems that after these two assassinations, they have gradually realized something.

  In fact, the person behind the assassination had the same goal as Lin Xiu. They didn't want the marriage contract between the Lin family and the Zhao family to come true. Unfortunately, that guy didn't know Lin Xiu's ideas, otherwise there would not be so many things.

  Zhou Yun said firmly: "Retire, we must retreat. Let's go to Zhao's house now!"

  Lin Xiu patted her hand helplessly, and said, "Mother, Lingyin and her parents have gone to save their parents. It may take ten and a half days to come back. It's useless for you to go to Zhao's house now."

After Zhou Yun calmed down, her expression was a little complicated, and she sighed and said, "When the old lady made a marriage appointment for you, no one thought that the Zhao family would have such a proud girl. At the beginning, your father and I were able to have such a woman for the Lin family. I was very happy as a good wife. Later, Lingjun’s talent was slowly revealed and his majesty’s attention was paid. Lingjun’s father’s title rose again and again, and more and more people proposed to Zhao’s family. At that time, we realized that, that A marriage contract is actually not a good thing..."

   Lin Xiu heard the words and moved slightly in her heart, and asked: "Mother, who has ever proposed a kiss to the Zhao family?"

  Probably speaking, the man behind the two assassinations was one of these families. Knowing who had proposed to the Zhao family, he could at least target a few main targets.

Zhou Yun thought for a while, and said: "Just for the royal family, there are princes, Zhao, Qi, and Yan. Among the royal families are the princes of Changping County, the princes of Jiangning County, the princes of Liyang County, and the princes of Hejian County. , Six of the nine official mansion have been through Zhao's door, and there are more than a dozen marquis......"

  Lin Xiu was still counting at first, but then she gave up.

  This is still a fart. Isn’t this a national daughter-in-law? It is a powerful person who wants to marry the Zhao family. In theory, these people have motives, and they all hope to die...

  Good guy, he is the enemy of the world...

  Fortunately, this time, his parents finally stood on the same side with him.

After the emotional excitement just now, Uncle Ping An also calmed down. He sighed and said, "The Zhao family is also very embarrassed about this matter. Everyone will definitely be put on a hat of dishonesty, and the credibility of the family will be greatly affected..."

  This sentence is true.

  If it is the Zhao family who cancels the marriage contract, then people will say that they are not keeping their promises. In the past, when the two families were in despair, they made a marriage appointment.

  If the Lin family canceled the marriage contract, people would say that it was forced by the Zhao family. If it weren’t for whoever canceled the marriage contract, the Zhao family would be scolded, and this marriage contract would not last until now.

   People do not stand without credibility, and large families value credibility. Therefore, even if the Zhao family and the Lin family do not want to fulfill the marriage contract, the other dignitaries in the capital do not want to. This marriage contract still exists to the present.

At this time, Zhou Yun seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly said: "I have read the marriage book. It only says that the Lin and Zhao families are married, and it does not specifically say who to marry. The Zhao family’s two daughters, we don’t marry Lingjun. You can marry Lingyin!"

  Lin Xiu was taken aback for a moment, and then asked expectantly: "Can you?"

  Lin Xiu has never read the marriage letter, and I don’t know if there is such an operation.

  Lin Xiu didn't want to marry a woman who had never met or knew each other, but there was someone he had met and knew. Although Lingyin was a bit fierce, no one could replace her in Lin Xiu's heart.

  Apart from the mother of another world, she is probably the only woman who treats Lin Xiu wholeheartedly without asking for anything in return.

   Another very important point is that she and Lin Xiu have the same attributes. After marrying her, they can practice day by day, night by night, and they can practice for three hundred and sixty-five days a year...

etc!

  Lin Xiu's expression suddenly changed.

  He is really dreaming about life after he married Zhao Lingyin, and when he thinks about it, he will be inexplicably happy in his heart. Is this still the little white dragon in the waves who pursues the unmarriage doctrine, the little prince Lin Xiu of the nightclub?

  Lin Xiu knows the relationship between men and women very well, so he also knows what it means.

   means he likes Lingyin.

  It's not like playing, he is really thinking about living with Lingyin, knowing that Lingyin will not let him get in trouble, he is also seriously considering this matter.

  If it’s Lingyin, even if you let him change your mind, it’s not unreasonable...

  Lin Xiu suddenly woke up, and then removed this terrible thought from her mind. When did he get poisoned by Lingyin?

  At this moment, Uncle Ping’s opening interrupted Lin Xiu’s fantasy.

He sighed lightly, shook his head, and said, "This is naturally impossible. Since the birth of Lingjun and Xiu'er, the marriage contract between the two of them has been established. This marriage contract is only for the two of them. So far, how can there be any reason for a marriage contract to choose a person at will?"

   Zhou Yun showed a resolute color on his face, and said: "In any case, this marriage contract must be withdrawn!"

  The situation is a bit awkward right now.

  The marriage contract was put there, and it was neither retired nor retired. Lin Xiu didn't realize until now that things were not as simple as he thought.

  No matter what, you have to wait for the Zhao family to come back to make a decision. There is still one thing that needs to be resolved in the current Lin Mansion.

  He looked at Mrs. Ping An and his wife, and said: "Father, mother, I want to return the deeds of deeds from the servants at home so that they can make a living on their own."

  Sun Dali, Lao Huang, A Yue, and Aunt Wang have all been in the Lin family for many years, and Lin Xiu absolutely trusts them.

  But Lin Xiu couldn't believe in those servants who were later rewarded by your majesty.

  He couldn't guarantee that among them, like Lin Wu, someone else was an undercover agent in Lin's family.

  Just in case, we simply disperse everyone, give them a severance pay, and then let them get rid of slavery, they will not complain about Lin Mansion after thinking about it.

  Uncle Ping'an obviously thought of this, Zhou Yun nodded and said, "You are the master of the family affairs."

   Soon, Lin Xiu summoned the nine servants to the yard and told them about their decision. These servants did not feel much disappointed about this, but were a little excited.

  Many of them are family members of former prisoners. They were regarded as slaves because of family changes. They were also masters. Who wants to serve others for the rest of their lives?

  Now that I have the opportunity to be free again, I am naturally very excited.

   "Thank you Master, thank you Master!"

After expressing their gratitude to Lin Xiu, they packed their bags, took the severance pay, and left the house happily. Lin Xiu said to Ayue who was beside him: "Sister Ayue, I have to work on you for a few more days, I I will find someone I can trust to help you as soon as possible."

  Ayue quickly said, "Master, what did you say? I have nothing hard to do. This was originally my duty."

  Lin Xiu did not be polite to her anymore. The few of them who were in distress in the Lin Mansion were inseparable, and Lin Xiu had already treated them as family members.

  After solving the hidden dangers of getting off the family, Lin Xiu went to the wing of the girls.

The girls of Shuang Shuang have not yet woken up. She looks very peaceful in sleep. Lin Xiu was a little guilty and apologetic to her. After all, from the beginning, he approached her with no good intentions, but Lin Xiu had seen her in two lifetimes. The simplest and purest girl.

  Different from Xue Ning’er’s thoughtful green tea, she wants to become a famous doctor of a generation, and her mission is to save the dead and heal the wounded. Compared with her noble character and ideals, many people, including Lin Xiu, look very dirty.

When the girls woke up, it was already night.

  This is a normal manifestation of Yuanli and physical overdraft. When Lin Xiu was squeezed by Lingyin before, she also slept dimly every day.

  Bai Shuangshuang sat up from the bed, looked at the sky, and hurriedly said: "It's so late, I have to go home quickly..."

Lin Xiu walked to the bed, brought her a bowl of chicken soup, and said, "It's already a curfew outside. The girls are going to live here tonight. You don't need to worry. I have asked someone to come to your house to say hello. Now, this is the black-bone chicken soup that my mother has cooked for two hours. She specially asked me to bring it to you."

  Bai Shuangshuang took the bowl from Lin Xiu with embarrassment, and said, "Trouble you."

  Lin Xiu smiled and said, "I should say that the trouble is. You will rest at my house tonight, and we will enter the palace together tomorrow."

  Bai Shuangshuang nodded, and sipped the chicken soup in the bowl. After she finished drinking, Lin Xiu took the empty bowl and said, "You can rest first. If you have anything, you can call me."

   After exiting the twin girls’ room, Lin Xiu turned her head and saw a figure standing behind him.

  He was taken aback and asked: "Mother, what are you doing here?"

  Zhou Yun looked inside the room, then pulled Lin Xiu aside, and asked in a low voice, “Which daughter is this girl? Do you know anyone else in her family? Is there any marriage...”

  Lin Xiu looked at her and knew that she was looking for a daughter-in-law for herself, and said helplessly: "Mother, you misunderstood. The girls are my friends. There is nothing between us."

   Zhou Yun said: "Everything is from nothing. I think this girl is pretty good. If her family is innocent, it's not impossible..."

   "Okay, mother, I have something to do, go back to the room first, and you should rest early..."

  In order to prevent her from saying anything, Lin Xiu decisively slipped back to her room.

He really has no idea about Shuang Shuang girls. Although she is also very beautiful, she is not the type that Lin Xiu likes. Shuang Shuang girls belong to the loli type. She is about the same age as Lingyin and Princess Minghe. She was born. An oval face that can be broken by blowing makes her look younger than she actually is.

Lin Xiu likes Yu Jie, like Caiyi and Qin Wan, especially Qin Wan, who is the pinnacle of Yu Jie. Lin Xiu is also rich in experience and determination, but when she meets her, she still has Uncontrollable impulse.

   No dreams all night.

  Early the next morning, the twin girls who had recovered from their original strength helped Lin Xiu treat once again. After that, the scary penetration wound on Lin Xiu's shoulder was completely healed, leaving no scars.

  While Lin Xiu was surprised, she was also a little excited and excited.

  Because of this ability, he also has it.

  Of course, Lin Xiu’s therapeutic effects cannot be as good as a pair of girls.

  After all, he has only awakened twice. The two girls looked cute and dumb, but their spiritual talent is not low, and their ability has been awakened four times. They are the hope of the hospital.

  More than that, as healing as a profound-level ability, Shuang Shuang-mai has already practiced it to the end. If she can make a breakthrough in her life, this ability will also reach the ground level.

  The wound has healed, but Lin Xiu's body wants to fully recover, and it will take some time to rest.

  Having had breakfast at home with Shuangshuang girls, Lin Xiu went into the palace with her, sent her to the hospital, and walked towards the harem.

   Entering the harem, a little **** followed him every step of the way. Although Lin Xiu can come and go freely, the places he can go are only in the Changchun Palace of the imperial concubine.

When he walked into the Changchun Palace, the imperial concubine was enjoying the flowers in the yard. When the pet in her arms saw Lin Xiu, she abandoned the imperial concubine and flew towards Lin Xiu and threw herself in his arms, asking him why he didn't come here yesterday. it.

  According to the scheduled time, Lin Xiu was supposed to come yesterday, but it was delayed because of the assassination.

  The imperial concubine took a look at Lin Xiu displeasedly, and asked, “Where did you go yesterday? My palace and daughters were here for you all day.”

   With her usual temperament, if someone dared to make an appointment with her, she would have been dragged down to play the board at this moment, but for Lin Xiu, the imperial concubine liked it in her heart, so she should naturally be more tolerant.

  Lin Xiu explained: “I returned to the imperial concubine, she was going to come yesterday, but because she was assassinated and almost killed, she rested at home for a day.”

   "What?" The concubine raised her eyebrows when she heard the words, and asked angrily: "Who did the assassination? Are you injured?"

  Lin Xiu said: "Thanks for your concubine's concern, she didn't hurt her vitals. After the two girls were treated twice, there was no serious problem."

  The imperial concubine frowned and said: "Both are capable of treating her twice. It seems that it is not a minor injury. My palace can't spare him who wants to harm you!"

  Lin Xiu shook her head and said, "The assassin is dead, and there is nowhere to trace it temporarily."

  The imperial concubine empress thought for a while, and said: "It must be that Yongping Hou, he wants to avenge his son, you are waiting here, my palace is going to find your Majesty, a little first class, it's really lawless!"

   Lin Xiu hurriedly said: "The imperial concubine calmed down, Yongpinghou should not be so stupid. His son has been exiled for a few days, so he started doing it at this time. Wouldn’t he not behave himself..."

  The imperial concubine empress did not stop leaving the Changchun Palace, she still angrily said: "Even if it is not him, you will always find out the result. The people in this palace dare to move, they are really tired of life!"

  Royal study room.

Emperor Xia was listening to several ministers reporting on the affairs of various ministries, but was interrupted by the imperial concubine who walked in angrily. After hearing her talk about the cause of the matter, he comforted her and said, "Quite your anger, calm your anger, I will investigate this matter. In the end, I will give you a satisfactory answer."

After receiving Xia Huang's promise, the imperial concubine's anger disappeared a little, and she left the royal study room with satisfaction.

At this time, a minister could not help stepping forward and said: "Your Majesty, this is the Imperial Study Room. The place where your Majesty and his courtiers discuss affairs, but the imperial concubine and empress break in so casually. It's really, really outrageous. I also hope that your majesty will restrain the noble concubines..."

"Restriction?" Xia Huang glanced at him and said, "If I could restrain, I would have restrained it, and I would use you to say here, Shi Lang, I have to remind you that your daughter was only sent in a few months ago. The palace becomes a noble person, if the concubine empress knows you are saying bad things about her here, do you think your daughter will have a good life in the future?"

Wang Shilang was stunned for a moment, and then he showed justice on his face, and said with a sense of righteousness: "Too much, too much, Uncle Ping An is a newly promoted second-class master of your majesty. Someone dared to assassinate his son. This is not to put your majesty in sight Here, do not put the imperial court in the eyes, strictly investigate, must strictly investigate!"

  A quarter of an hour later, several ministers left the imperial study room, Xia Huang walked to the chair and sat down, and said in a deep voice: "Zhu Jin."

A figure came out from behind the pillar, and before Xia Huang asked, he proactively said: "My Majesty, the Secret Investigation Department is already investigating the matter, but I think there will be no results. The two assassinations against Lin Xiu were passed separately. The two assassin organizations released this kind of assassination mission, the employer would not disclose their own information, even the assassin himself did not know, and we have nowhere to investigate..."

   Then he thought for a while, and asked: "Could it be Yongpinghou?"

Emperor Xia didn't even think about it, and said, "No, if he only had this little city mansion and couldn't keep the Yang family's big family business, it seems that someone really wants to break the paper marriage contract. Who would it be? …"

  Zhu Jin thought for a moment, then smiled bitterly, and said: “I can’t guess. Too many people in the capital want him to die. To be honest, he can live to this day. It’s a miracle...”

Xia Huangdao: "It's not because of the Zhao family. Even some of my sons want to fight, and which one can not be moved. The Zhao family's attitude was not clear before, but it's fine. Now the Zhao family also intends to promote this. Some people can't sit still..."

  Zhu Jin was silent for a moment, and said: "This matter should not be able to find the result. How can I explain to the concubine?"

  The Emperor Xia thought for a while, and said: "Account truthfully, the imperial concubine is not an unreasonable person. In addition, the patrol force near the Lin Mansion has been doubled, so that the secret investigation department's people will protect him secretly..."

  When he said the last sentence, he glanced at Zhu Jin lightly and said, "I don't want him to have an accident, understand?"
