The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 82
Under the pear tree, Yunjin stood quietly in a moon-white gauze dress.

She is like this pear tree, with an indescribably lonely atmosphere.The pear blossoms in the courtyard are clustered every year, but how many people can watch it in an isolated courtyard?
Yun Jin is often secretly saddened that she has no talents, but she can't get out of this Xiulin Castle cage, which is really no different from this old pear tree.

Do I have to be like this pear tree, whose beauty fades away in this courtyard?
She yearns for the outside world, even if it is dangerous, she is willing to fly moths to the flame.

The courtyard door was pushed open again, her whole body tensed instantly, thinking that it was Murong Hao's hypocritical prodigal son again, but when she looked over, she was shocked to find that it was Murong Hao.

This made her feel ashamed, could it be that he also...

She hated herself for having such a beautiful face.This father and son are both lone wolves and beasts.

When Murong Chuan saw the melancholy in Yunjin's eyebrows, he couldn't help but feel turbulent, but he was at this age, and he still put those dirty thoughts in his mind out of his mind, and asked Yunjin softly: "Girl, are you here these days?" How are you doing in the yard?"

His pretended caring attitude made De Yunjin even more disgusted.In her opinion, both Murong Chuan and his son are extremely hypocritical.

Bowing slightly, she said lightly, "It's okay."

Murong Chuan didn't think much about it, and sighed: "It's okay. The castle master came here, and I have some unfortunate news to tell you. Your brother Xiaowu followed the old man to the palace to present the most precious fish sausage sword. Beheaded by that little emperor..."

Yun Jin's face turned pale in an instant, and with a cry, tears flowed out of her eyes, and she passed out.

Her brother is the only person she is attached to in this world, how can she bear this kind of stimulation?

Seeing her fainted, Murong Chuan hurried over and massaged Yun Jin's acupoints with his inner qi.

Not long after, Yunjin finally woke up and turned around, staring blankly at Li Shu, except for the strong sadness, there was no other emotion.

Now she is really ashamed.Even my brother is dead, what's the point of living in this world by myself?
If it wasn't for her brother still alive, she would have long since refused to live in this world and face those beasts with human faces and beast hearts.

She knew that Murong Chuan would not deliberately lie to him about this kind of thing.

Suddenly, she took the dagger out of her sleeve and stabbed it in her heart.The pears living in the courtyard cannot withstand wind and rain.

Yun Jin never felt that she was a strong person, she was just a weak woman.My brother is dead, I might as well find a relief, so as not to be ruined by this room full of treacherous wolves.

But Murong Chuan's reaction was extremely fast, before the dagger could reach her heart, Murong Chuan snatched it away, "What are you doing?"

Yun Jin just shed tears silently and didn't speak.

Murong Chuan has lived for decades, and he can be regarded as cunning like a fox. He quickly understood what Yun Jin was thinking, and sighed: "My Lord knows that you are too sad and wants to go with your brother, but you don't want to think about it for you." Did brother take revenge? Your brother was killed above the court, and was thrown into the wilderness in the end, not even a whole body was left behind, do you think he just died like this?"

When Yun Jin heard this, his eyes finally lit up, "Why did the Emperor want to kill my brother?"

Murong Chuan sighed deeply, "It's a long story. Your brother went to sea with the imperial army to destroy pirates. By chance, he got the most precious Yuchang Sword. When he came back, he found the old man and asked him to take him into the palace to save the Yuchang Sword." Dedicated to the emperor. The old man asked him why he was going, and he said... At the beginning when your family was destroyed, it was said that it was the work of Yuan thieves and spies, but it was actually done by the imperial guards ordered by the former Empress Dowager Xie."

He has raised Xiao Wu and Yun Jin in Xiulin Castle for so long, so he has already found out their life experiences by insinuating.

Yunjin and Xiaowu's real name is Zheng, and their father was Zheng Huchen, a former captain of Kuaiji County in the Southern Song Dynasty.He became famous all over the world for killing Jia Sidao, and was later killed by Chen Yizhong.The reason for this is that Jia Sidao was kind to Chen Yizhong, and people all over the world believed that Zheng Huchen was ordered by Chen Yizhong to kill Jia Sidao. It has nothing to do with killing Jia Sidao.

In fact, Zheng Huchen killed Jia Sidao because his father Yuanyuezhou uniform Zheng Xun was framed by Jia Sidao and died in a foreign country.

Murong Chuan didn't know these things, but he presumably didn't know Yun Jin either, so he fabricated them at will.

All he wanted was for Yun Jin to attend the Oiran Conference, and if he could enter the palace, to help him assassinate Zhao Dongting.

People like Murong Chuan act only for profit and have no conscience.

As he said that, he was hypocritical and squeezed out two tears, "It's a pity that your family is full of loyalty, but it ended up like this in the end. The Song Dynasty was innocent, and your brother insisted on taking this opportunity to assassinate the emperor to avenge the family. I grew up watching you guys, and I couldn't bear to see Xiao Wu's pitiful words, so I took him there. Unfortunately, the emperor was actually wearing body armor. Your brother couldn't kill him, and the old man could only watch him helplessly. Killed. Sigh, old man, I’m sorry, if I had known this, I definitely wouldn’t have brought Xiao Wu to the palace to assassinate the little emperor.”

Yun Jin bit her lip, her eyes gradually turned cold.

In order to control their thoughts, Murong Chuan often sent people to speak ill of the Southern Song Dynasty court in the ears of these slaves, and Yun Jin only thought that the Southern Song Dynasty court was really fatuous and immoral, so he was no doubt there.Hearing what Murong Chuan said at this moment, he only thought that his whole family was killed by the imperial court, and his elder brother died because of assassinating the dog emperor. Although he was weak, but his family's blood flowed, how could he die like this?

The flame of hatred in her heart gradually burned, which made her look less fragile, but the loneliness between her brows was even worse.

A look of success flashed in Murong Chuan's eyes, and then he said: "From now on, if you are lonely, you can live safely in Xiulin Castle, this old man..."

This tactic is to retreat to advance, it is really a tactic that he has used proficiently and is proud of.

Yun Jin heard that he didn't say anything else, and she didn't doubt him, so she stood up and fell to her knees in tears, "Please help me, Lord."

Murong Chuan said: "Help you for what? You wouldn't let the old man help you kill that little emperor, would you?"

Yun Jin kowtowed to the ground, but did not speak.

Murong Chuan paced and said: "You are really embarrassing this old man. Xiao Wu is dead, and even Xiu Linbao was almost implicated. How can you ask this old man to help you? Besides, what can this old man do to help you?"

Yun Jin said: "As long as the castle master helps me get close to the emperor, the little girl will definitely not hurt Xiulin Castle. The castle master is very kind, and I will be a cow and a horse in the next life in return."

After that, her forehead was heavily pressed on the ground again.

Seeing this, Murong Chuan quickly pulled Yun Jin up, looked at the blood on her forehead, the corners of her eyes twitched slightly, and said, "Let the old man think about it."

He knew very well that if he acted too eagerly, it would arouse Yunjin's suspicion.After all, Xiaowu's assassination of Zhao Dongting is quite general, if you really think about it, Yunjin will inevitably find some unclear points in it.What he wanted was to make Yun Jin think that he didn't come to persuade her to assassinate the Emperor of Song. In his words, he didn't reveal the slightest meaning that he also wanted to kill the Emperor of Song.

Speaking of scheming, Yun Jin, a little girl who has been alone in the courtyard all year round, can only be led by the nose by Murong Chuan.

Afterwards, Murong Chuan intentionally paced around the pear tree in the courtyard, as if thinking of an idea.

After a while, he suddenly exhaled softly, and said: "Girl Yunjin, the old man has a way, maybe it can bring you closer to the emperor."

Yunjin's eyes followed him all the time.

Murong Chuan said slowly: "The Oiran Conference will be held in two days, and I can arrange you to enter as a brothel girl. The emperor may come to such a grand event. You are so beautiful and good at melody. See, I like you, and maybe I will take you back to the palace. But the old man really can't help you with the rest of the matter, the crime of treason, we Xiulinbao can't afford it..."

Yun Jin didn't have any idea, after hearing what Murong Chuan said, he saluted and said, "Fortress Master's kindness, Yun Jin has nothing to repay..."

Murong Chuan shook his head and sighed, "Oh, as long as the world is peaceful, the imperial court... oh..."

Pretending to sigh a few times, he continued: "The little emperor is still young, whether he will go to the Oiran Conference or not, and whether he will like you is still unknown. Whether you can avenge your brother and your family is up to fate. But Yun Jin, you have to remember, no matter whether you succeed or not, you must never say that you are from Xiulin Castle, otherwise our entire Xiulin Castle will die because of you, and the old man will be more guilty."

Yunjin wept softly: "Don't worry, the owner of the castle, Yunjin knows about it. Even if it fails, Yunjin will not tell about Xiulin Castle."

Murong Chuan nodded lightly, "This way, the old man can rest assured. You can rest in the courtyard now, and I will come to find you after the old man makes arrangements."

After that, he walked out of the yard.

Yun Jin looked up at the pear tree, as if there was Xiao Wu's shadow on the pear tree, and murmured, "Brother, Yun Jin must finish what you haven't finished..."

Then cry alone.
