Chapter 311 Mystery
On the way back to the mansion, Xu Ziqiao leaned over and lowered his voice, "I sent someone back to send father and mother to the inn. I will pick them up after the people from the Western Regions leave." Lin Huiru nodded, "Thank
you It's okay if I don't tell you, and it will save you a little trouble."
On the one hand, Lin Huiru was also afraid that Lin Qing and Qi Hehua would feel uncomfortable, and on the other hand, it was more serious. It is in their house, so the aspect of security is almost entirely in their hands. It is said that it is attractive, and if there are any problems, their heads will be lost.
"It's okay, but tonight you have to tell me why you always do these inexplicable things." Xu Ziqiao narrowed his eyes and lowered his voice.
Lin Huiru looked at Xu Ziqiao's serious look, and nodded helplessly. Things have come to this point, and she doesn't know how to make these lies go, so she can only take one step at a time.
When they returned to their residence, the princess of the Western Regions suddenly approached Lin Huiru.
"Actually, you said our language is fluent, so why hide it from them." Seran sat in the gazebo, the golden color on his clothes was illuminated by the soft moonlight, looking very dazzling.
Lin Huiru stopped breathing after hearing this, but noticed some details, "Then you can understand Chinese too, why don't you talk about some sensitive topics?" Originally, Lin Huiru would have thought she was like
this The haggling will anger Seran, but I didn't expect that after hearing what she said, Seran just smiled, "Okay, it seems that we all have something to hide, my name is Seran, and your name is Lin Huiru, right?" "
Hmm , your translation will be restored soon, and I hope we can keep this matter a secret from each other." Lin Huiru frowned and said in a deep voice.
People in a country don't know that their princess can speak Chinese. He doesn't know the unspeakable secret, but he doesn't speak much English. The main reason is that he is afraid of being guilty of deceiving the king. It is best to get clean with the royal family. the better.
"I don't believe him. If possible, I still hope you can be our interpreter." Seran shook the wine in the glass, her eyes were even more seductive in the night.
"You don't even believe your translation, so why do you believe me? What's more, if there are any mistakes in what he said, can't you just point it out? Oh, forget about me, you have something to hide and can't prove that you will Chinese." Lin Huiru held her chin, she suddenly became curious about the princess's life experience.
Seran lowered his eyes and smiled, "That's right, you are very smart, as long as you continue to translate for us, I can pay you a lot of things." "
But why are you doing this? If I If you are not mistaken, then the translation that went wrong should be a good thing you did." Lin Huiru raised her eyebrows, if Seran wanted her to continue translating, then the translation would be unjustified It didn't go well, so his subtext was that the translator would never get better, so it was enough to prove that Seran was the manipulator behind this matter.
"You are so smart, can't you think of why? You can think boldly. Since you can speak at that juncture today, it proves that you care about the life and death between the two countries. It is very important for you to help me." , there are only advantages and no disadvantages." Seran continued to pretend to be mysterious.
However, Lin Huiru was not impatient, because this matter would be a very serious problem if he thought about it in a big way. Just like what he thought at the beginning, if there was a problem with the translation and the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries was affected, then the two The maintenance between countries will become loose, resulting in many problems, and even wars and other Western Regions. Although it is a vassal state, it occupies a large area.
Lin Huiru didn't speak any more, just squinted her eyes. If Seran didn't want their translator to speak so much, there are only two reasons. The first one is that there is something wrong with the translator, and someone wants to use that translator to distort the relationship between the two countries. Meaning, thus inciting conflicts, Seran just wanted to prevent these.
The second word... is that Seran wanted to push the matter of conveying wrong information to her, so that the infamy of spies would be much greater than their rebellion.
Lin Huiru was vigilant, and did not directly agree, "If you give him laxatives for a few days, he will die. If he expresses your meaning wrong, I will correct it for you. Why do you have to take a life?"
"He must die, otherwise there will be a war between us. I want to ensure that there is only one reliable person who can pass on the news between us, and no one can secretly pass on other news." Seran said with his head raised. .
Lin Huiru suddenly remembered a rumor that she heard today. There will only be one person who can speak Chinese in the Western Regions. If other people can speak Chinese, they will die. I don't know who did it.
Is this also the reason why Seran can't speak Chinese?
"You are making it difficult for me." Lin Huiru only felt a headache after thinking about it. No one can speak Western Region dialect.
But in this way, if someone is more calm, wouldn't she become a thorn in the side of both sides?
It's over, it's over, she shouldn't be so impulsive, Lin Huiru sighed angrily, "Forget it, what the hell are you doing?" What do you want?"
"Nothing, just come to say hello and have a meal together, just like a friend visiting, I will get rid of those who secretly want to do something, what else do you want?" Are you relieved?" Selan asked.
Lin Huiru wiped his face, "There are too many people in the world, just from the fact that you can also speak Chinese, if someone just pretends not to know, maybe we are sitting here now We have already been targeted, and there may even be people who are aiming at us in the dark." "
You have read too many picture books, if it wasn't for my mother and concubine who taught me to speak a few words of Chinese from time to time, I'm afraid it would be difficult for me to learn. It is not that simple to master two languages, so I am also curious, how did you know our language?" Seran also looked at Lin Huiru with his chin in his hand, there seemed to be wireless charm in his eyes, Even Lin Huiru couldn't stand being looked at as a woman.
She doesn't like to bring the topic up to herself, but thinking about it, if you want to fully understand English, you must at least have enough vocabulary. With the current situation of cultural exchanges between the two countries, it may not be enough, let alone these People have American pronunciation, which is different from pure pronunciation. She has never understood the level of translation.
"Then your translators can speak the language of the two countries well?" Lin Huiru asked again.
Seran shook his head, "His level is about the same as mine, not very fluent, but you are different, you may be the first person in thousands of years who can speak both countries fluently, Your pronunciation can't fool us."
Lin Huiru twitched the corners of her mouth, if this princess knew that many people would be able to speak well between the two countries, she didn't know what kind of expression she would have.
Chapter 312 Flying disaster
"So, you think I can rely on you? This princess, you are too naive." Lin Huiru couldn't help laughing. Is this princess suffering from persecution paranoia? Selan restrained her expression and shook her head, "
If If you didn't care about this matter, you wouldn't have spoken at that time, and I'm sure you wouldn't want to see the two countries go to war." "
Then you haven't thought that someone is controlling me because I speak so fluently? Don't you worry that this is premeditated?" Lin Huiru asked again.
"Have you read too many picture books?" With the same sentence, Seran took a sip of his drink, "If the conspiracy can coincide with the conspiracy, it will be my death." Looking at the sincere eyes of the princess
, Lin Huiru could only nod in desperation and agreed, "Okay, okay, but you have to ensure my safety. It's hard to guarantee that someone will dislike me and want to get rid of me." "Of course,
I The most combative guards will also regard you as the main object of protection." Seeing her promise, Seran bent his eyes and smiled, this smile is enough to make a person lose his soul.
"But can I ask something?" Lin Huiru looked at Seran, and a thought came to her mind, "Is your mother and concubine Han?" Seran did not evade, but nodded slightly, "
No Wrong, my mother and concubine is a woman who was exiled by the Han people. I don't know what crime she committed. She was taken back by my father and fell in love with me at first sight. Later, I found out her identity. My mother and concubine did not want to bring us Kill yourself if you are notorious."
"I'm sorry... I don't know... I thought it was a marriage." Lin Huiru suddenly panicked, but looking at Seran again, she didn't look half sad.
"It doesn't matter, it's a relief for her to die, and soon my father will go down to accompany her. There are some things, you'd better not know too much." Seran reminded with a slight smile.
This sentence immediately made Lin Huiru's hair stand on end, and he almost couldn't help but cry up to the sky. It was obviously Seran who said it himself, and it had nothing to do with her.
The subtext of Seran's words is that he wants to be superior.
"It's getting late, go back and rest quickly, take me for a walk in the capital tomorrow, don't say too much if it doesn't matter, those people are not all my subordinates." After Seran said this, Lin Huiru suddenly Some sympathize with her.
Although she is a princess, but because her mother and concubine are in a difficult situation, she has to guard against someone who wants to destroy the peace.
After saying goodnight, Lin Huiru went back to the room, unexpectedly Xu Ziqiao hadn't slept for so long.
"Why haven't you slept yet?" Lin Huiru rubbed her eyes and yawned, but she couldn't hold on anymore.
"I'll explain it to you when you come back." Xu Ziqiao sat quietly at the desk and put down the pen and paper in his hand.
Lin Huiru's heart skipped a beat, and she almost forgot about it, "Forget it, you can ask whatever you want, we're married, and I won't hide anything from you." "If I remember correctly
, You are also from Zhengyang Town, and you can do a lot of novel things, which only proves that you are very smart, but why do you speak Western Region dialect? Are you from the Western Region?" Xu Ziqiao frowned, stood up and walked over.
In fact, he didn't want to ask Lin Huiru the bottom line, and he didn't think it was a problem to know a few words in other languages, but he was afraid that it would change his taste if he went to other people.
Between telling Xu Ziqiao or not telling the truth, Lin Huiru chose the former, "Do you think I look like me? I grew up in Zhengyang Town, and Lin Dashan's family can also prove it. As I said, Western Region dialects are just Occasionally."
"I can understand that you have met traveling doctors, but Zhengyang Town is so far away from the Western Regions, how could there be people from the Western Regions sneaking into my territory!?" Xu Ziqiao asked again, he was especially worried that if someone with a heart took advantage of it , will be detrimental to Lin Huiru.
Lin Huiru also knew that her knowledge of Western Region dialect at this juncture was a disadvantageous exposure, but now there is no regret medicine to take.
"You only know how to question me, but do you know that those who can speak Chinese in the Western Regions are strictly arrested, and those who are caught will undoubtedly die. The wandering doctor is a Han Chinese who came back from the Western Regions. Yang Zhen, you can check with other people about this matter to see if there is really a similar one. Then doctors have traveled all over the world, and many records in medical books surpass us. Why can't we learn from it?" Lin Huiru Pretending to be angry, just to tell the truth about this matter.
Seeing how serious she was, Xu Ziqiao couldn't help but be more convinced, "Don't be impulsive, of course I know there is such a thing, but it will arouse suspicion from others, and I'm afraid it will be bad for you." "Of course I know, otherwise I
will Why did you not mention his identity when you mentioned the traveling doctor? They all deepened the misunderstanding just now, so if you don't talk at this time, do you have to wait until the misunderstanding becomes big?" Lin Huiru frowned.
Seeing that she was still angry, Xu Ziqiao reluctantly hugged her into her arms and lowered her voice, "I don't want you to be the one who died for the war, and their matter will not start a war. Okay, but if you come out, many people may be suspicious, I just hope you are safe."
This kind of Xu Ziqiao made Lin Huiru soft-hearted the most, but because of this, if the essence of this matter is Lin Huiru Tell Xu Ziqiao that if Xu Ziqiao can't hold his breath, this matter will be troublesome.
"I know you are doing it for my own good, but your majesty is a wise king, so you may not listen to those nonsense." Lin Huiru patted Xu Ziqiao on the back, and heaved a sigh of relief.
She finally rounded it up with someone who didn't exist.
Early the next morning, Lin Huiru didn't sleep well all night because she thought too much at night. When she woke up with huge dark circles under her eyes, she followed Seran out the door.
Because there were too many people accompanying him for protection, and Seran's appearance, Lin Huiru suddenly felt that this was too eye-catching, so it could be regarded as showing off in disguise, right? It was like saying,
you Come and kill me, you can't kill me with so many people.
"What are you thinking?" Seran asked doubtfully seeing that Lin Huiru was not in the mood.
Lin Huiru waved his hand, "I haven't had a good rest, where does Your Highness want to go first?" "
I heard that your shop is well-known in the capital, why don't you go to your place first and let me palm your eyes?" Seran road.
So on this first trip, I went to Lin Huiru's gouache shop.
As a woman, Seran has no interest in those foundations and the like, but keeps smelling all kinds of perfumes, and seems to like it very much.
"If the princess likes it, pick some and take them away." Lin Huiru suddenly became energetic at this moment, and she remembered what Seran said last night.
She will definitely pay for it.
Chapter 313 Black Tour Guide
"These taste very strange. If possible, can I bring a bottle of each of them?" Seran held several of them with a look of fondness.
Lin Huiru nodded, "Of course, but you have to pay."
The guard next to her twitched her forehead when she heard this. This woman is so courageous!
Seran smiled and said nothing, but after seeing the price tag His complexion changed suddenly, and
he put down the two bottles with heartache, "Just these two bottles." She is in the circle, and she hasn't cheated on her yet!
After leaving the gouache shop, Lin Huiru took Seran to the milk tea shop again, and she put everything on the list, because of Seran's arrival, The store entrance can be described as overcrowded, so she can use this as an advertisement.
Not only that, but she also had to pay for all of Chancellan's orders.
"What's this?" Seran took a bite of the dessert with chocolate sauce, his eyes widened in surprise.
Lin Huiru was stunned for a moment, "Well, waffles." She didn't think about why these people in the Western Regions spoke English. Wouldn't the ancestors of the crooked nuts be too backward? "What about this one?
" Seran pointed to another object and asked again.
"Suffle, that's an egg waffle, that's a crepe..." Lin Huiru simply said everything he could introduce.
These things were also recently launched by her, and they were too popular.
Before he had time to eat lunch, Seran was already hiccupping, but still holding a cup of fruit tea in his hand.
"Your Highness, what do you want for lunch?" Lin Huiru only took two bites of waffles, and she was still hungry.
Ser Lan rubbed his stomach and thought for a while, then blurted out, "Is there anything spicy?"
"Spicy?" Lin Huiru thought for a while, and then took Ser Lan to a Sichuan restaurant without hesitation. .
After some signature dishes were served, the red ones made Lin Huiru's scalp tingle. However, Seran ate with relish, even though her mouth was red from the spicy food, she still couldn't stop her from tasting a lot of dishes one by one.
"It would be great if we could have more of these in our place." Seran said with emotion after wiping the red oil from his mouth after eating.
"Princess, maybe you can be the first person to introduce the past." Lin Huiru only felt that her mouth and stomach were burning. To relieve it, she went back to the shop and ate a bowl of shaved ice.
At the end of the day, I haven't been to the scenic spots, but I took a day trip with all kinds of food.
Lin Huiru was about to take Jianweixiaoshi tablets, but Seran excitedly asked her where she was going to play tomorrow?
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one here late at night, Lin Huiru asked tiredly, "Princess, you came here for Did you play?"
"Otherwise? Did you come to have a long talk with your emperor?" Seran joked with a smile.
Lin Huiru now suspects that there is nothing else at all. I am afraid that the princess did not deliberately want the translator's life, so she can have a good time here.
"Then where do you want to go?" Lin Huiru let out a long breath, tired and helpless.
"It's okay to go out for a walk. Our place is a desert or an alpine basin, and we haven't seen a flat woodland yet." Seran said.
Lin Huiru felt that her leg was not her own after walking for a whole day today, and she will do it again tomorrow???
It's a pity that the emperor's order is hard to violate.
Fortunately, on the third day, the interpreter was ready. The emperor called Seran into the palace, and Lin Huiru was always a little nervous.
Lin Huiru breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Serran come back intact at night, "How is it?
" Who is the prince?"
This question baffles Lin Huiru, who is the most promising? It seems that none of them can do it. There is one who she has never met, and the other has already formed a relationship. Now in her mind, it is the king of Jin. Not bad.
"Why do you ask this?" Lin Huiru felt a bad premonition.
Ser Lan smiled, holding the wine glass in both hands, "I am a woman who came to act as an envoy, don't you understand what my father and king are planning?" After realizing it,
Lin Huiru suddenly gave Ser Lan a twitch. Sadly, this is another victim of a marriage.
"So you can choose your husband-in-law yourself? Or the one who attracts the most attention will become your husband?" If it's the latter, Lin Huiru is in a bad mood.
Even though so many things have happened, the one with the best momentum is probably King Xiang.
If such a girl marries King Xiang, she might just become a pawn.
"Originally, I wanted to take advantage of this incident to put aside the marriage, but it seems that my father has already been persuaded." Seran sighed, his eyes full of helplessness.
Calculated in this way, Seran should be a thorn in the side of ambitious people in that country, and that's why he wanted to send her out.
"But have you ever thought that if there is turmoil on your side, it is your father who wants to protect you?" Lin Huiru still didn't want to watch the tragedy happen, so she went to the police.
Seran looked at her who was so serious, and felt a little trembling, "Forget it, no one knows him better than me." "What
if this understanding is just your self-righteousness? You must not marry that King Xiang, otherwise I'm afraid this matter will become more and more chaotic." Lin Huiru suddenly became anxious and angry.
She would rather King Jin's Wen Tun's temperament slowly harden, and she doesn't want to believe that a ruthless person like King Xiang will be the one with the most power.
Seran remained silent. This matter is of great importance, and others should not be involved, but now because of her, Lin Huiru is also involved. If she gives up lightly, all the previous efforts will be in vain. .
"Don't worry, I won't be slaughtered by others. That person will never want to control the country and start a war. I just use marriage to blind them." Seran smiled at Lin Huiru.
"What are you going to do?" Things have come to this point, even if Lin Huiru knows something, it's not too much.
"I think...to be caught off guard." Seran said cryptically, but most of the time, they were caught off guard when they weren't paying attention.
Lin Huiru frowned, "But if marriage is used as a cover, how can you get out if you get married? Also, that person is not a good person." "Someone has to make
sacrifices, otherwise the great cause can't be successful Well." Seran's smile was a bit bitter, seeing her playing with the cup made Lin Huiru feel very uncomfortable.
"If you can, it's better for you to marry King Jin than King Xiang." Lin Huiru slumped on the chair and let out a sigh of relief.
Chapter 314
"Unfortunately, this is not something I can choose." Seran also sighed.
"There is no other way?" Lin Huiru asked.
Seran nodded, "Yes."
"What way?" Lin Huiru suddenly cheered up.
"Substitute marriage." Seran's words seemed to be joking, but not like joking.
"If it's a Han woman, it's okay to say that others can get away with pretending to be disguised, but you are from the Western Regions. How can you find someone to replace you with your appearance and your eyes?" Lin Huiru patted With a flick of his forehead, he felt that his IQ was crushed on the ground.
Seran didn't speak but just smiled, and the smile was meaningful, "This is the fate of a woman, even the princess here, and there will be a time when she must marry." The sorrow of ancient women,
Lin Of course Huiru understood that she couldn't change anything after thinking about it. Although Lin Huiru's heart was very heavy, it was time to adjust her mentality at this time. After all, it was an irreparable thing.
"Then do you still have any wish?" Lin Huiru asked again.
"It's nothing. I am satisfied to be here instead of other countries. If there are many delicacies that I have never eaten here, I would like to lose my life." I don't know why Lin Huiru always feels that Seran will be here strange.
After chatting for a while, Seran became tired, and the wedding date was set not long after. Lin Huiru went back to the room and told Xu Ziqiao about it.
"Women in the royal family are born to be envious of others, but they may not be as good as others in the future." Xu Ziqiao is only rarely emotional, he is not as sentimental as Lin Huiru.
The next day, Seran was taken to the post house. No one was around to talk in English, and Lin Huiru was still a little uncomfortable.
On the third day, Lin Huiru received a letter signed by Seran, and she went to the restaurant mentioned in the letter in doubt, but suddenly had an ominous premonition.
The next moment, there were people in black covering their faces in all directions. Lin Huiru was surrounded by them, and the leader saluted her, "My master has been waiting for a long time." Lin Huiru did not speak
. , with a strangely ugly face, the person who came to her must not be Seran. Although Seran can speak Chinese, she should only know a little. The smooth notes in that letter must not be written by her.
She was impulsive just now.
Now people have to bow their heads under the eaves, and Lin Huiru can only sink his mind. After entering the restaurant, he went straight up the stairs to the private room on the second floor.
The man in black knocked on the door, and there were two knocks on the table, and then the door was opened by the man in black, and Lin Huiru was also pushed in, and the door was closed heavily come up.
This room is very big. In addition to a huge round table, there is a looming figure behind the screen next to it. Lin Huiru walked over suspiciously, but when she saw the real face of that person, she turned into a trance. goosebumps.
It's King Xiang.
"Why, are you surprised to see that it's this king?" King Xiang glanced at Lin Huiru who was standing frozen in place, and asked calmly.
Lin Hui swallowed subconsciously. Anyway, she knew that it would be no good for King Xiang to find her, and now she suddenly remembered an unpleasant memory before, that is, she and Princess Anning had a good relationship with Ji Linglong walking around in the palace. That time, she saw King Xiang burning paper in a palace.
"Of course I'm surprised. I don't know what your Highness wants me for?" Lin Huiru pretended to be calm and saluted before sitting down.
"I didn't expect Mrs. Lin to be so secretive. Not only can she speak fluent Western Region dialect, but she can also have such a deep friendship with the princess. A letter just came." King Xiang was not in a hurry to get to the point, the whole People are very leisurely.
Lin Huiru smiled, but he had already greeted King Xiang's family in his heart, "His Royal Highness, I just understand a little bit. It's fashionable at first, but it will be difficult after a long time."
"Ma'am, don't be modest. If she marries me in the future, and she doesn't understand the language, I will ask Madam to help." Such frivolous words were spoken to a married woman, and this King Xiang was really crazy.
Lin Huiru couldn't help frowning, a little displeased, "What does your Highness mean by this? The princess has a translator with her, so why does she need me, a half-assed person?
" What do you know from him, you evil Western Regions man?" King Xiang poured a cup of tea for Lin Huiru and pushed it in front of her.
This time Lin Huiru didn't fall for it, but took a sip of tea from the cup, "Could it be that your highness can also speak the dialect of the Western Regions?
" Tell me, the translation was drugged by their own people, and madam, your Western Region dialect is not fluent at all." Lin Huiru was terrified by King Xiang's smile, she couldn't think of it, Why would a man be so black-bellied.
Lin Huiru still pretended to be confused with understanding, "Your Highness should report this kind of thing to His Majesty. It would be too flattering for me to say anything to a woman like me." "This king has never discriminated against women, the
empress At the time of the court, they may not be worse than men, but some physical strength is difficult to compete with. Why are women not as good as men?" King Xiang first touted it, and then brought the topic to Lin Huiru, "It's about In terms of talent, strategy and brains, I don't think there are many people who can compare to you, Mrs. Lin." "Your
Highness, I'm just an ordinary person if I don't have my husband to teach me well." The best way to navigate among these bureaucrats.
"It's boring if Ma'am is so modest." King Xiang filled her up with tea, and smiled, "Did you see what happened that day?"
Lin Huiru's heart skipped a beat. Did she accidentally see someone burning paper , How come it's the same as seeing others kill and silence.
"I don't know what your highness is talking about. It's not good to meet me alone as a married woman. For the sake of your highness's reputation, your highness, please come back." Lin Huiru said calmly and sincerely.
"I don't mind. The Japanese king saw you clearly when he was burning paper at the old site of Fengxiang Palace. Madam Lin, do you still want to argue? On that day, Miss Ji and Princess Anning went together. Is it possible that the king should go to them to verify in person? The crime of walking around in the palace is not a small one." King Xiang's threatening routine is enough to make Lin Huiru stunned.
In desperation, Lin Huiru could only agree, "Yes, I just passed by accidentally that day. It has been such a long time now, and there is no news about this incident. Do you want to kill people to silence your mouth so you can rest assured, Your Highness?"
As she said that, Lin Huiru felt that the tea in her mouth had changed.
Chapter 315 Ambition
However, if the poison was poisoned from the beginning, it would be somewhat uncomfortable. Lin Huiru thought about it for a while, even if King Xiang was rampant, he wouldn't kill her just because she saw him burning paper?
Although There was no problem with the tea, so Lin Huiru put it down anyway.
Today, it was clearly a Hongmen banquet, and she jumped in unprepared.
"Madam Lin, what kind of person does this king think of me? That day is the memorial day for my queen mother and concubine, so I just went to pay her respects." King Xiang said the matter calmly, without any sense of grief.
It has long been heard that King Xiang's mother and concubine died young, and she was also a very favored concubine before she was alive. That's why Qian Yuan indulged King Xiang so much, and the deeper reason...is probably unknown.
"Since it wasn't for that day's event, Your Highness, you came to me, so you don't have to hide it?" Lin Huiru tried her best to calm herself down, but the environment here made her feel uncomfortable and uncomfortable.
"Mrs. Lin is a straightforward person, so the king will not go around in circles. Does Mrs. Lin really think that she can rest easy by serving the emperor?" King Xiang squinted his eyes, and the question was straightforward.
Lin Huiru smiled, "The officials of that dynasty didn't follow the master. If they didn't follow the emperor, they probably didn't need to be such officials. What's more, don't make a mistake, my husband is the official, not me."
"Madam Lin, why don't you go around in circles with me, it's meaningless." King Xiang narrowed his eyes, obviously losing a lot of patience.
Under such circumstances, Lin Huiru also knew that she could not delay for long. This method of taking one step at a time is really difficult, not to mention that King Xiang is not easy to fool. If she doesn't explain it today, so many people will be around Now, she probably won't be able to get out.
"I know what you want to say, Your Highness, but as I said, it's not me who is the official, but my husband. Your Highness, what should you talk to him about? It's a bit too far-fetched to cling to me as a woman, isn't it? If you ask me for business cooperation, you may be able to talk about it, but if you talk about something that hurts, I don't understand at all." Lin Huiru continued to talk nonsense.
King Xiang shook his head, "This king appreciates you and you, don't you? The official said that being a businessman has nothing to do with it, but Mrs. Lin, you should know that without you, Xu Ziqiao wouldn't be where he is today." "You think too
much Well, the most I can do is to do a little business. With a little money, I can pay for Xu Ziqiao's usual grades when he comes to Hong Kong to take the exam, but everyone can see it. It will be even more troublesome if I have a misunderstanding in the end." Anyway, King Xiang is not a roundworm in their stomachs, so how could they know what he and Xu Ziqiao had said indecently? Although she appears to be very smart on the surface, as long as I don't know about the private affairs, it's just gambling.
"This king has never been wrong. Even if you know how to do business, it is a good ability. What's more, your husband is still a second-rank official. In the court, who doesn't give you a face now? You may wish to think about it in the future." , Xu Ziqiao can always outlive this king's father, do you really think you can live in it when the dynasty changes?" King Xiang narrowed his eyes, and his words were somewhat threatening.
Of course, Lin Huiru knew what he was referring to. He just wanted to say that he was going to decide the throne. If they didn't obey, they would kill her when he became the first one. Lin Huiru was not the first to make such a threat. Listening to it once, although most of the others are seen from TV dramas, it is indeed a little different to be threatened in real life.
"That's why I said you shouldn't discuss this matter with me, you should talk to my husband. I don't play tricks on him. His every move and every thought have nothing to do with me." Lin Hui If still trying to put aside the relationship.
But King Xiang was very troublesome, "A hero is sad for a beauty. How do you know that Xu Ziqiao will not do other things for you? He is for you, even the eldest lady of the prime minister's family refused. Mrs. Lin, don't you want it?" I'm too unconfident."
This kind of trivial matter in daily life is longing to know, and Lin Huiru guessed that this matter has probably already been circulated in the huge court, and most people should know it in their hearts, Xu Ziqiao Zhengzheng Be proud and don't get along with others.
The most terrible thing is that this prime minister belongs to King Xiang's faction.
"I don't need you to do anything, I just need you to be used by me. Xu Ziqiao is His Majesty's right-hand man now. As long as I send you some news, you can mention all other benefits, whether it is a shop in the capital, or A lot of gold and silver and military power are fine." King Xiang's move was generous enough.
Lin Huiru was thinking, how many things did King Xiang collect behind his back? These things may be just the tip of the iceberg, and it seems that part of the rule has already existed in name only.
But looking at King Xiang's intentions, such a good thing has been offered today, if she refuses to agree, it's because she doesn't know how to flatter her, and she might not be able to get out of this door today.
"I guess, if I don't agree, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave alive?" Lin Huiru asked frankly.
Seeing her being so serious, King Xiang just smiled, "What kind of person does Mrs. Lin think of this king? But this king cherishes talents very much. If Mrs. Lin feels that she can't make a decision now, she can go back and think about it, or discuss it with Mr. Xu. "
Zhuge Liang still visits the thatched cottage three times.
Hearing that it could be delayed, Lin Huiru immediately felt a lot more relaxed, "Then please allow me to go back and discuss with my husband, Your Highness." "
Time." King Xiang spat out two words.
Lin Huiru was at a loss, "What?"
"My king asked you, when will I give you an answer." King Xiang patiently explained.
"...This is not a trivial matter, seven days." Lin Huiru regretted it after finishing speaking. These seven days are too short, and she doesn't know when she will be able to come up with a countermeasure.
"Okay." King Xiang nodded, and added another cup of tea to himself, "It's still early in the morning, and this king also has something to cooperate with Mrs. Lin." The only things that can be cooperated with her should be business
matters "Your Highness has flattered me. I don't know what His Highness wants to talk about?" "
I am very curious. Why do you buy so many jade materials every time?" Point broken.
Lin Huiru's heart skipped a beat. She couldn't explain the matter of jade. After all, she bought a lot every time, but couldn't get any of them out, as if she was eating them.
She doesn't eat it, but there is an old man who eats it. Does she have to buy small and expensive ones in the future?
Chapter 316 Big Business
In order to be able to deceive people's eyes and ears, this is the only way to do it.
"Practice, I also want to make some exquisite handles." Lin Huiru is now telling lies, there are too many things to hide, and she can't tell the truth.
After hearing this, King Xiang's eyes sank, but he couldn't doubt it, "It's Mrs. Lin who is rich and powerful, and she directly uses jade to practice her hands."
Lin Huiru smiled guiltyly, "Compared to this, is Your Highness spying on us?"
"My king You don't need to give up that thought, you brought this jade to your door." Lin Huiru immediately understood King Xiang's words.
The one who didn't want to reveal his master's name turned out to be King Xiang's subordinate!?
Was this trying to control her with business ?
"So that's the case. I'm still curious about who is so generous, and jade can be sold at a discount." Lin Huiru said eccentrically.
King Xiang smiled, "If we can cooperate, there are still two jade mines under my king's name. As long as Mrs. Lin is not greedy, she can have as much as she wants." Not greedy? How much do you want?
This
is very contradictory, see Come on, King Xiang is not that rich.
"Didn't Your Highness agree to give me seven days?" Lin Huiru couldn't help frowning. This was a disguised form of forcing her to submit.
"This is just a cooperation between you and me. Does Mrs. Lin also want to discuss with her husband? As far as this king knows, Xu Ziqiao doesn't have the slightest sense of business." King Xiang told the truth again.
Lin Huiru just felt uncomfortable being led by the nose, "Then, what do you want to do, Your Highness?" "
As long as you can earn more money, it's fine. , this king will share with you three to seven." Three for her, seven for him.
A group of crows flew by in Lin Huiru's heart, "Your Highness, you are flattering me too much. If I really have this kind of connection and transfer money, it is still the same now. I have already become the richest man in the capital, so don't be sorry. My expectations are too high, the so-called higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment." "
This king has always been very accurate in seeing people. As long as it is feasible, I can provide you with shops and money. You can go back and think about it, or stay with me. Have a meal?" After King Xiang finished speaking, he raised his eyebrows with a bit of evil spirit.
This is blatant teasing!
Although King Xiang is also a handsome master, the one in her family is better looking and more pleasing to the eye.
Now that I have a chance to go, why not go? Lin Huiru smiled veiledly and then ran away in a flash, almost non-stop, as if she would die if she stayed for a while longer.
Today's experience made her unable to cry. After returning home, Lin Huiru fell into depression. She was still thinking about this matter, how to tell Xu Ziqiao so as not to arouse his impulse.
After much deliberation, even if it was late at night, Lin Huiri didn't think about it. Xu Ziqiao came back very late today, and his expression was also very bad. I went to find Xu Ziqiao.
"What did he tell you?" Lin Huiru was a little nervous, afraid that Xu Ziqiao would be threatened.
Xu Ziqiao lowered his head and sighed, "It's nothing, it's nothing more than telling me a lot about the benefits of working with him. King Xiang, who was originally violent, didn't expect to lower his stance because of trying to win over others." "Actually... King Xiang
also I was looking for me, but at that time it should be earlier than you, he even lied to me in the name of Seran and talked about some things about wanting me to help him out." Lin Huiru confessed.
When she said this, Xu Ziqiao also became vigilant, "He didn't do anything to you, did he?"
Lin Huiru shook his head, "No, just give me time to think about it, and give him an answer in seven days. "
Xu Ziqiao sat slumped on the chair and rubbed the center of her brows with a headache, "If I didn't perform so prominently, maybe I wouldn't be targeted. If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have taken the imperial examination, let alone take those questions seriously. Now that he has his eyes on him, I'm afraid there will be no bright future in the future." "
It's so serious, we can obey on the surface, and then find a way slowly." Lin Huiru was crying beside her, comforting Xu Ziqiao in a relaxed manner. Well, if the two of them are like ants on a hot pot at this time, wouldn't they be in the arms of King Xiang.
"It's not that simple. It can be delayed for a while like this, but it can't be the same. Based on his character, if he agrees, he should definitely do an extremely risky thing for him, otherwise he will be afraid. You won't be trusted." Xu Ziqiao speculated about infinite possibilities in his heart, but no matter what he thought, he was not King Xiang.
Lin Huiru also sat down and forced herself to calm down, "There is no way to do it. If you reject him now, the consequences will be more serious." "There are still seven days. Let me think about it. Don't worry." Xu
Ziqiao He closed his eyes and let out a long breath.
There is no result after discussing left and right, why don't you go to bed early and think about it tomorrow.
This night, Lin Huiru's nightmare was the fear of being dominated by King Xiang. When she woke up, Lin Huiru was listless and drowsy all day long.
It was not until Sister Lin called out that Lin Huiru was awakened.
"Sister Lin, sister Lin, have you heard that the official in the Western Regions is going to marry my brother!" Princess An Ning seemed to be surprised by the news and her eyes widened.
Lin Huiru nodded wearily, "Yes, it's a pity." "
Although my emperor's brother is not well-reviewed by the outside world, in fact, my emperor's brother... Forget it, he just treats me well. If that princess marries me I don't know how much I will suffer." Princess Anning grabbed a handful of melon seeds and ate them, with a sad face.
"What are you making a fool of yourself for? She married, not you." Lin Huiru raised an eyebrow and asked.
"I was thinking, sooner or later, I will one day leave my father and marry another country, marry someone I don't know in a place I don't know, and I won't be able to come back several times in my life "The more Princess Anning said, the longer her face stretched.
Although Lin Huiru didn't dare to guarantee it, but because Qianyuan liked Princess Anning so much, it shouldn't be...
So, Lin Huiru comforted Qianyuan, "Not necessarily, you see the emperor dotes on you so much, How could you be willing to let you marry to another small country and be wronged? As long as we are the most powerful, no small country will dare to ask us for a princess." "Really?"
Princess Anning opened her eyes wide, looking She was a lot happier when she went up, and she took Lin Huiru's arm, "If this is the case, can I be sisters with you, Sister Lin, for the rest of my life?"
Chapter 317 Marrying the Princess
Seeing Princess Anning being so naive, Lin Huiru couldn't help thinking, how did Qianyuan raise the daughter of a princess so naively.
"Yes, yes, well, what else do you have to do, Your Highness, I still have things to do today." Lin Huiru really didn't feel like playing with her today.
"Sister Lin, are you busy?" Princess Anning was a little puzzled. Today, Lin Huiru hasn't washed up yet, and she looks sluggish.
Lin Huiru nodded, "It's nothing, I just don't have much energy, princess, come back another day, and I'll cook something delicious for you." "
Okay, but I have another news to tell you, because Seran has no mother's family here , I seem to have ordered Miss Ru to help you that day." Princess An Ning got up and patted off the melon seeds on her body.
I have chosen all the choices, and there is nothing else. Now there is nothing more important than the need to give an answer.
The wedding date of Seran and King Xiang is very close, it is a pity that Seran can only be a side concubine. The royal family has never been able to have a foreigner as a queen, which may also confirm the meaning that King Xiang is closer to that position.
After thinking about it for a few days, Lin Huiru and Xu Ziqiao reached an agreement. On the surface, they followed King Xiang's intention to collect or keep some evidence secretly, and when necessary, they overthrew it in one fell swoop. The battle of the Tomorrow is underway.
Originally, Lin Huiru wanted to take Qi Hehua back, but Qi Hehua and Lin Qing insisted on refusing, saying that they were afraid of causing trouble to them, and wanted Lin Huiru to find a house to move out.
Lin Huiru rummaged through the warehouse, and found a title deed sent by someone who didn't know. It was a small house in the suburbs, and the repairs were not bad. Just stayed.
They were the only two left in the house.
As soon as the seven-day deadline came, Lin Huiru was invited to that inn again. This time Lin Huiru looked around carefully and found that it was very remote.
"How is Mrs. Lin thinking?" On the same floor, the same location, or the same wing, Qi Zhengxi sat up and sipped his tea, and raised his eyes to look at her.
"It is our honor to be able to help His Highness." Lin Huiru said perfunctorily and sat down.
"Then it means that Mrs. Lin, you and Master Xu are willing to help me? With your help, my king will definitely have a higher level of power. If you want any reward, you can ask for it directly. I will do my best to satisfy you." King Xiang didn't seem very happy when he got the news, it seems that the completion of this matter is already under his control, or he has already planned, if they don't surrender, they will find ways to get them way to squeeze out.
Lin Huiru waved his hand, "Your Highness, you are welcome. We can rest easy with the big tree Your Highness can shelter from the wind." "
Since Mrs. Xu has agreed, what are you thinking, Mrs. Lin?" King Xiang What this remark refers to is business cooperation.
Good guy, whether it's business or officialdom, King Xiang seems to have to get involved with them in the court. After all, this can be regarded as a grasshopper on a rope, and Lin Huiru's current business is good. It makes people jealous, it seems that King Xiang has encountered some kind of economic crisis and needs some money urgently.
He was able to go to many places of business, either he was secretly accumulating energy to raise soldiers, so if Lin Huiru helped her, if someone else exposed her... the consequences would be disastrous.
"Your Highness still flattered me. I've thought about it many times these days, and I really can't come up with a way to earn so much money." Lin Huiru smiled apologetically, and the less involved she was with King Xiang, the better .
"Or, I don't know if I can ask Madam for advice, how can I sell the things from the jade mine better?" King Xiang asked in a different way.
Lin Huiru still shook her head, "I'm sorry, I don't understand these things, please don't make things difficult for me, Your Highness." "
But are you really embarrassing your mother? The jewelry shop opened by the lady from the Zhou family in Zhengyang Town The blueprint seems to be drawn by you too?" King Xiang narrowed his eyes, a little dissatisfied.
This is still hidden from him.
Lin Huiru didn't expect that King Xiang had investigated her so deeply, and even checked her relationship in Zhengyang Town clearly. This is enough to threaten her to submit.
"I didn't expect His Highness to want to know this. Since that's the case, I won't hide it from His Highness. I can only draw some design drawings. The other things are all done by Miss Zhou herself. It's the world, if you just want me to draw a blueprint and design some existing styles for sale, Your Highness can just say so." Lin Huiru prevaricated again.
King Xiang nodded, "I heard that those things are very fashionable and very popular, even small households in the town are like this. There is no place in the capital where Mrs. Lin can make a big splash." "Compared to this, aren't the
nobles Do you like those jade bracelets more?" Lin Huiru was puzzled.
"That's right, but I don't want to chop up those good jades and sell them. My wife just designs them. The money is not bad for me. This is my sincerity." After speaking, King Xiang snapped his fingers. A guard in black pushed the door open, put a wooden box on the table, and opened it in front of Lin Huiru.
What's inside is not a stack of silver bills, but a pile of gold, silver and jewels.
"Ma'am, don't blame me. The money in the king's bank can't be spent in large numbers. Even if these things are exchanged for bank notes, this box will not be missing. Madam, are you satisfied?" King Xiang narrowed his eyes like a fox. squinted.
Lin Huiru's eyes were dazzled by the luster of those things, and she knew they were good things at a glance. This matter had nothing to do with betraying the emperor, so she agreed readily.
"Your Highness is quick to do things, how can I not agree, then I will accept these, and the drawings will be sent to Your Highness's house for your review in a few days." Lin Huiru closed the box calmly, thinking But it is happy.
"No need, the things will be sent here. Madam, if you have anything to do with the king, you can come here directly. The palace is full of eyeliners. It is not a good place to talk about things. It is absolutely safe here." It seems to be worried. Lin Huiru didn't believe it, and King Xiang added, "From here, within a radius of 500 meters, deploy every 50 meters, and guard every 200 meters. No one can get close to here."
Lin Huiru nodded with a smile. If she continued to ask, she might be suspicious. This is the territory of King Xiang, and few people can come and go freely here.
And since King Xiang is so leisurely, there must be some other arrangements, even if the tail is dealt with, there will be no trace left.
How terrible would such a person be if he became a king?
Chapter 318 King Xiang's attention
"The precision of your Highness's deployment is admirable. If your highness has nothing else to do, then I will go back first. It's getting late now. If it's late, I will fall into the shoes of others." Lin Huiru added this sentence for the sake of Remind King Xiang to let him go, otherwise her little heart will not be able to bear the entanglement.
But King Xiang Quandang didn't hear it, "Madam, can you play chess? How about playing chess with me?"
Lin Huiru's brows thumped angrily, "Your Highness, it's getting late, men and women can't kiss each other, I hope you respect yourself With these words, King Xiang's expression became more gloomy.
However, King Xiang then said something that Lin Huiru didn't expect, "I heard that you are looking for Mr. Xu's biological parents now?" This
made Lin Huiru feel a bit stunned. She had indeed contacted some people in the business field. With the help of some people, the only information she can give is Xu Ziqiao's own little impression.
Finding this is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
"Yes, Xu Ziqiao's current family only adopted him. Is there anything wrong with this?" Lin Huiru asked.
King Xiang smiled, "People are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong. With your current status, any cat or dog will fabricate their identities and come out to recognize relatives.
" Dear, there are people who are less than 30 years old rushing over to call his son, but Xu Ziqiao is very angry.
Fortunately, Xu Ziqiao found a suicide note from his adoptive parents, and someone sneaked to see him once. He looked like he was dressed in a wealthy family, and he spoke with an accent from the capital.
Even so, there were quite a few people who came to pretend that their family was in trouble. Xu Ziqiao could only give up for fear of causing too much repercussions. Lin Huiru couldn't bear to see him lose, so he continued to inquire about the news behind his back.
What exactly did King Xiang investigate her?
"Your Highness is busy with official duties, so I won't bother you. Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite, and there are still many things to deal with in the house, so I will leave first." Lin Huiru only felt that when standing in front of King Xiang, , she was looked at thoroughly as if she had no clothes on.
"About this matter, this king reminds you that it is better not to do things that are wasted effort. Since you abandoned it at the beginning, why bother to find it? Since you have been ignoring it all the time, it only appeared now that it is on the rise. Don't you think Heartbroken?" In fact, what King Xiang said made sense.
But Xu Ziqiao didn't have many wishes at first. Since this is what Xu Ziqiao wanted, Lin Huiru would of course find a way to fulfill it for him, even if he didn't give his parents a pension, even if he knew whether they were still alive in this world. also can.
"I have personal obsessions, just like His Royal Highness misses his mother and concubine. We also have things we want to accomplish, not all things can be generalized. This matter will not affect you, Your Highness. Your Highness, please don't bother." Lin Huiru argued.
"How can parents who abandon their children be compared with this king's mother and concubine? This king is just reminding that if you get it, you may not be what you want. Neither of you is stupid. But if you insist on checking , I will not stop you." King Xiang's performance made Lin Huiru very strange, obviously this matter had nothing to do with him, and it was a bit too nervous to remind him again and again.
This time, Lin Huiru directly asked any questions, "I don't know why Your Highness cares about this matter so much?
" Lord Xu is someone who can make a difference, so why stick to it." King Xiang waved his hand after finishing speaking, "Forget it, I'm meddling in my own business, Madam Lin, please go back." Although King Xiang said so,
but Lin Huiru still held a dubious attitude.
After returning home, Lin Huiru told Xu Ziqiao about it, but he didn't think he didn't care about it.
"It doesn't matter. In fact, what he said is correct. My original intention is just to know how they are doing. It is better to be kind than to be kind, but the kindness of parents must be repaid. Since they chose to give birth to me, and gave birth to me The adoptive parents explained that there were not so many in Xincheng that they wanted to eat me to death. The promise was probably out of helplessness at the time, so I think it doesn't matter if they can't pick me up if something happens later, but after all, I was born. , I thought I found a family. You have to repay them a little bit." Xu Ziqiao's words truly reflected the word filial son.
Lin Huiru suddenly felt a little ashamed of herself. If it were her, she would never have any contact with her biological parents.
"Why are you so sad today? Did something happen?" Lin Huiru saw Xu Ziqiao stretching out his hand to knead the center of his eyebrows from time to time, and knew that this was a small habit of Xu Ziqiao. He would do this if he was irritable or tired.
Xu Ziqiao sighed, "Last night, an assassin was caught in the palace. That assassin killed the Western Regions and came to translate, but the assassin was also from the Western Regions. Now that he doesn't understand the language, this matter was handed over to me. I still need you to join the jury, so that I can give Xiyu an explanation."
"Me? Jury? Is it a little flattering of me?" But Lin Huiru already has a clue about this matter, she vaguely remembers Seran and her It was said that the translator from the Western Regions would not live long, and that the translator's purpose was not pure. It is likely that Seran did it behind the scenes.
"No way, this matter is very important, not to mention that it is an order issued by His Majesty himself. If I cooperate with others, I may not trust it, but as long as I am with you, I believe it will be fine. It seems that you are the only one who can translate their words in Spanish." Xu Ziqiao seemed to have a severe headache, and his temples were rubbed red by himself, Lin Huiru felt distressed, and hurried forward The past took it gently, trying to relieve his pain.
"Well, the matter has come to this, I can only help you torture, when?" Lin Huiru wanted to go to Selan's place before the interrogation of this matter, but she didn't know if it would be too late.
Xu Ziqiao closed his eyes, "We are still thinking about countermeasures, and we may have to interrogate the day after tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, thank you for your hard work." "
It's nothing, but does Seran know about this?" Lin Huiru asked tentatively.
"That princess... Now that I don't understand the language, Your Majesty doesn't want to disturb them. If there is any misunderstanding or chaos in the room, then this matter should not be made public, so I think we will interrogate that person first, and then you will negotiate. .Now the posthouse is surrounded by His Majesty's people." Xu Ziqiao said.
Chapter 319 Postpone the Wedding
"There is also Seran's marriage. Because of this matter, His Majesty ordered a temporary postponement, and we will make plans after the arraignment the day after tomorrow." Lin Huiru and Xu Ziqiao did not hide any of these matters.
Lin Huiru nodded, and the abacus in his heart was clinking. He must tell Seran about this matter. If other powerful people secretly acted, this matter would be unfavorable to them, but Xu Ziqiao It is said that the posthouse is full of the emperor's people, if she goes rashly, she may be charged with collaborating with the enemy and treason, what should I do?
And this was something Lin Huiru didn't expect. Seran had never told her about this plan, and it was completely beyond Lin Huiru's expectations, and she still needed to confess to Seran.
At this juncture, the only person Lin Huiru could turn to for help was King Xiang.
In order to prevent Xu Ziqiao from worrying, Lin Huiru did not say hello, and a person went to the restaurant the next day, but this time, King Xiang was not there, and only his subordinates were there to guard, saying that he would tell the matter to King Xiang , but the time now is obviously too late. If it is to be interrogated tomorrow, the only way to go to see Seran is today.
"Can I trouble you to think of a way? This matter is very important. If you don't see His Highness today, it may affect the future." In desperation, Lin Huiru could only pull out this argument.
Having said that, the guard hesitated for a moment, and after discussing a few words with the people next to him, he said neither humble nor overbearing, "Madam, it will be tonight at the soonest. Your Highness has something important to go out today.
" I just went out, and when I was bothering her a few days ago, but once I found out, nothing happened now, and she disappeared. Lin Huiru clenched her fists, panicking like an ant on a hot pot for a moment .
Regarding this matter, Qi Zhengxi must be unreliable. Just when Lin Huiru didn't know what to do, someone sent a message saying that King Xiang would arrive in a while and asked Lin Huiru to wait.
Being able to see King Xiang this time was the only time Lin Huiru was happy to see King Xiang. But Lin Huiru always felt that the guards looked at her strangely just now.
After waiting for less than half an hour, the gorgeous carriage arrived. "I don't know why Mrs. Lin came to look for this king in such a hurry?" "
I have seen His Highness, but I don't know if His Highness knew that the translator was assassinated the night before, and the assassin was also from the Western Regions?" Lin Huiru asked directly.
King Xiang sat down and nodded, "I know, what's the matter? Do you have any clues?" "
No, but I want to see Princess Seran. But I heard Xu Ziqiao said that His Majesty has put on heavy defense at the post house, so I want to If I passed by without anyone noticing, I'm afraid it will be a little troublesome, but if I walk again, the wind will definitely be accused of treason and collaborating with the enemy, and I hope His Highness can help me find a way, this matter must be done!" Lin Hui As righteous as the words are, after all, this matter is much more serious than all the things she has encountered before.
With little deviation, it will turn into a battle of two countries.
"This is the first time madam asks me for help because I want to make things difficult for me. This matter is really tricky. After all, it's my father's army." King Xiang raised his eyebrows. He didn't mean to refuse. He should look like this because he wants Lin Huiru to pay some money.
"I don't know how Your Highness can let me see Princess Seran?" Lin Huiru asked nervously.
King Xiang thought for a while, "Look at Madam's sincerity."
"How about completing the drawings ahead of time? How about doing more?" Lin Huiru threw out two conditions in a row, but these didn't seem to be what King Xiang needed. Knowing what King Xiang wants, it is disrespectful to say something that will definitely help me sit on the throne, and it may not make King Xiang happy. This is going to be difficult for Lin Huiru, and time is racing against time. She doesn't have time to speculate on King Xiang's preferences here.
"Let's owe this favor first. This king has something to do with it. He can let you in without anyone noticing, but you have to remember that this time you owe this king." King Xiang smiled slyly and called The subordinates took Lin Huiru out.
At first, the guards who greeted Lin Huiru stood at the door in a dilemma. After seeing him, King Xiang didn't even give him a straight face, and said directly, "Come here, what's the matter?" "Your Highness." The guard hesitated
.
"Speak up if you have something to say. If you can't say something that satisfies the king, I will cut off your tongue." King Xiang and Lin Huiru were completely different when they were talking and when they were in normal times. The cruel and ruthless him at this moment is the real one. he.
The guard swallowed, "Your Highness, you are too special to Mrs. Lin."
"Oh? What?" King Xiang asked after blowing on the tea in the quilt.
"Your attitude towards Mrs. Lin, the tone of your speech, and the day before yesterday you were supposed to go to see that girl, but you came back straight away. This subordinate just wants to remind you that she is a married woman after all." The guard Why?
After he finished speaking, King Xiang didn't speak, and became quiet. The music fans had enough time for a cup of tea. Afterwards, the guard trembled all over. He also knew King Xiang's habit. If he didn't speak for a long time, he must be thinking about what to do deal with this person.
"Your Highness, this subordinate is aware of his mistake, and his subordinate has overstepped, please punish him." It's better to make an excuse than King Xiang himself.
King Xiang smiled, the most terrifying thing about this person is the uncertainty, even if he is smiling with you at this moment, he may still be thinking of some vicious method in his heart, "It's good to know, what did the king say just now?" , if you can't say anything meaningful, then go cut off your tongue, because you are so willing to admit that you made a mistake, the baby has no other punishment for you, so you go and cut off your tongue, as a warning Xiaoyou. By the way, tell them about this king in the future, you don't have to talk too much, and recognize your own status."
For King Xiang's punishment method, this is enough, the tongue is considered light, and it has not been tortured to death It was already considered his greatest kindness, and the guard staggered out the door after thanking him again and again, and his tongue might no longer belong to him from now on.
What happened today has left a deep impression on the people of King Xiang. This is the first time that King Xiang has dealt with his subordinates who he carefully trained for the sake of a woman. Although Xu Ang I was not violent in the past, those The ruthless means are all his usual domestic slaves, but this time they are his own people. It is enough to prove how much Xiang Wang regards Mrs. Lin.
But now Lin Huiru has already arrived at the post house, and she doesn't know what happened later. All she can think about now is to quickly check this matter with Seran, so that she can think about the next step.
Chapter 320 Someone else
As expected, King Xiang's connections were not ordinary. This time, Lin Huiru entered almost openly. Seeing the unbiased eyes of the people next to him, Lin Huiru almost doubted whether King Xiang had controlled most of the dynasty now. Church.
King Xiang's people didn't follow her after they sent her to the door. Lin Huiru picked up Seran's dormitory alone. In fact, Seran knew what happened these days, but because it was surrounded by water Yes, she also had no way to get in touch with Lin Huiru. Now she turned around and saw Lin Huiru. She was so surprised that she almost lost the box in her hand, "Why are you here?" "Don't tell me,
you Sleeping comfortably here, I don't know what's going on outside, I'm here for this matter, have you already done it? Why are you so impatient to get rid of him now?" Lin Huiru poured herself out The glass of water moistened his throat and asked.
"Of course I know what happened, but I have nothing to do. You see, I can't even get in touch with you. Do you think I did this?" Seran put the dropped box carefully I picked it up carefully, opened it and confirmed that there was no defect before letting go of a hanging heart.
Lin Huiru thinks so too. If the color card package really did it, they have reached a united front in the past two days, and they should have at least contacted her. Since they can send killers to kill people, they can give them no matter what. She sent a letter or something, but there was no news from Seran, because Lin Huiru's trust in Seran increased a little bit.
"If it's not you, who else is there? The killer is from the Western Regions. Didn't you say that he is from another force? If so, why do you want to silence him?" Although Lin Huiru did not want this matter to be a murderer from the bottom of her heart. Lan did it, but after hearing Seran's denial, Lin Huiru fell into other doubts. This matter was like a mystery wrapped in fog, which made her puzzled at all.
Seran sat down and sighed, "There's only me and one of my royal brothers. The royal brother has wanted to replace the father's position for many years, so he has been secretly cultivating his own power during this period. He feels that he is now It was his best time, if he waited until his father died in old age, his best age would be wasted, so he has been keeping a low profile and saving energy, and he has even infiltrated his own people into the father's. Among the people."
"So, what's the point of him using that translation? If it messes up the relationship between the two countries, what good fruit will he have in a fight? Don't forget that the Western Regions now have less land than the Han people. How much?" Lin Huiru was even more confused.
"Don't worry, listen to me, his main purpose should not be to start a war, maybe he wants to transfer this matter to my father, so as to start a war, but this battle is not Will really fight, he will get rid of his father in the name of righteousness and extermination of relatives, and then he will ascend to the position and re-establish diplomatic relations with the Han people. I have to say that his calculation is quite good." Seran's analysis listened to Lin Hui If the scalp is numb.
It seems that not only money can turn relatives whose blood is thicker than water, but also rights are the most greedy people in the world, but this approach is undoubtedly a gamble. If things don't go as smoothly as expected, this battle will be more difficult How many people were killed or injured?
"Isn't that what you thought? You wanted to kill the translator who was obstructing it first, and then use me to negotiate the issue of avoiding the war, but now he actually kills his own people first." Now, what is this plotting?" Lin Huiru asked.
"It would be great if I could really know what he was thinking, but what I can be sure of right now is that his conspiracy is definitely not over yet. Now that you have caught the killer, you can interrogate him. If there is any news, can you Please tell me again." Seran pulled Lin Huiru's sleeve, looking very worried.
"You may not know how much I have to pay for this trip to find you. Forget it, anyway, this matter is related to the affairs of two countries, and it is not a trivial matter. You can only wrong me a little bit. Okay, then You stay here in peace, no matter what news you hear, even if it is extremely bad news, as long as it is not told to you by me, you must not believe it and must not reveal your flaws." Lin Huiru earnestly urged Now, their opponents don't know what they are thinking. If Seran is thrown into disarray and it is revealed that she can understand Chinese language, it will definitely not be a good thing.
Seran nodded, "Don't worry, I've pretended not to understand since I was a child, and when I came up, I didn't move when I heard any news, right?" "You grew up in the Western Regions
and How could it be possible to hear the words of the Han people a few times? And even if the topic discussed at the palace banquet was very intense that day, it was still under your own control. If someone suddenly came to tell you that you were going to be killed, or that your father Something happened to the emperor, can you continue to pretend to be dazed without showing the slightest nervousness?" Lin Huiru asked forcefully.
This moment put Seran in a difficult situation, indeed, he thought he could be very calm, but when Lin Huiru pressed him for questioning, when he thought of being surrounded by people, he said in Chinese what she was most afraid of. , she will definitely show her feet.
"I will work hard, so if you have any news, you must tell me. I promise you before you come, no matter what others say, I will not believe it." Seran said firmly.
"That's good, otherwise I'm afraid someone deliberately set a trap or something. I shouldn't stay for a long time now, so I'll go first." Lin Huiru waved his hand after speaking, stood up and walked out the door quickly, following Xiang Xiang The king's people left this place of right and wrong again.
Soon came the day of interrogation. Lin Huiru was taken to Dali Temple by Xu Ziqiao. Today, the guards here are extremely strict. I don't know who it came from, saying that the killer from the Western Regions has already entered the capital. To wait for an opportunity to provoke war, although I don't know why people still believe such nonsense, but now the people are panicking, and the officials and the emperor have to be vigilant.
The killer had been starving for a day and a night. After arriving in the interrogation room, Lin Huiru almost thought he was blind. It was so dark that he couldn't see his fingers, and it was underground, dark and damp.
In this environment, few people can persist.
After lighting the candles, a few more people came in from behind the door. These people were divorced and more or less familiar. They were almost Xu Ziqiao's colleagues, but they all belonged to Dali Temple.
"Thank you for your hard work, Mrs. Xu, and I have to work hard for Madam today. If there is no Madam, we really don't know what to do." After some polite greetings, Lin Huiru and Xu Ziqiao sat in the middle.
"What's your name? Who sent you here?" It was still the old-fashioned opening statement. In order to continue to fulfill her previous lies, Lin Huiru had to pretend to speak poor English.
