Chapter 398
In the season when chrysanthemums are in full bloom, the capital city ushered in another major change of blood.

Today is the fourth day that General Fang got married, and it is also the fourth day that the rebels were put to death.

The officials who attended the wedding banquet in Prince Yi's mansion that day were terrified. They never thought that such a big thing would happen just across the wall.

The second prince conspired against him, the second prince was punished, Concubine Rong was imprisoned, the Lin family confiscated, and the second prince's master beheaded the public in the most lively place in the capital. The charge was that the second prince was bewitched by rumors, poisoning and killing the current emperor.

Not only that, but the impact of this incident is deeper and far-reaching, even affecting the scholars of Dashun.

It turned out that the second prince had done a good deed with "great mercy" before that. He set up charitable halls in various prefectures and prefectures in Dashun. With the credentials of the private school or school where you are or have been, you can get two taels of silver from Shantang.

The actions of the second prince caused an uproar at that time. Scholars all over the world wrote articles praising the second prince's benevolent deeds, praising him as unique in heaven and earth.

At that time, the emperor still doted on the second prince, so he didn't think there was anything wrong with this behavior, and even felt that this son was kind-hearted, and even if he didn't become a king in the future, he would be a good official who cared for his people!
As everyone knows, the second prince did this only to pave the way for his future recruitment of staff.

After the incident of the Second Prince's treason, among the folks far away from the Emperor, the people who suffered the most were those scholars who had received money from the Shantang and who had written articles for the Second Prince under their real names.

They can't wait to change their names and leave their hometowns to live in a place where no one knows them.

But they are not innocent. Since they have enjoyed the favor of the second prince in glory, they have to bear the sins brought about by the defeat of the second prince. This is the price, and there will be no free lunch in the world.

After all, the dry and hot wind from the people could not blow into the high-walled capital city. In the capital city in the north of Dashun, people had already put on thick clothes, and the frail official ladies even put on capes.

It was night again, and the soldiers and guards who had experienced the rebellion of the second prince disliked the dark night very much. This dangerous atmosphere surrounded them, making them feel like they were in cold and thick water.

In a place where no one noticed, a simple, unidentified carriage drove quickly through the streets.

Without going through the city gate guarded by layers of guards, the groom used some means to leave the city from the back of the capital, and the journey was unimpeded.

Soon after arriving outside the city, the groom opened the curtain, and the cold moonlight poured into the carriage in an instant, and there was a thin, quiet woman with a slightly pointed chin and no flesh on her cheeks sitting inside. She was only wearing thin clothes , a string of Buddhist beads in his hand, and nothing else.

"The imperial concubine, you are leaving the city, and someone will take you on the road ahead."

When Lin Rongyan heard this address, she raised her head and looked at the groom in surprise, and was surprised to find that this person was a familiar face she had seen in the palace.

"You are……"

The groom took off his hat and showed a harmless smile, "The imperial concubine, the servant is a small seal, usually by Eunuch Li's side, the imperial concubine has a noble status, naturally I have never seen a small one."

With the reminder, Lin Rongyan remembered that this little eunuch was Li Fuquan's little apprentice with him. He was nameless and had a dark birthmark on his arm, so he was called Xiao Yinzi.

"Are you here to save me?"

Lin Rongyan said in disbelief, she was lucky to save her life, she didn't know who else would come to save her, could it be Murong Qing?
Xiao Yinzi nodded, took out the whistle hanging around his neck and blew it. The next second, three birdsongs rang out in the wind.

"Imperial Concubine, the person who takes care of you is here."

Looking at this sincere smiling face, Lin Rongyan felt a long-lost warmth flowing in her heart, "Xiao Yinzi, I am no longer a concubine, you don't have to call me according to the palace rules."

Looking at the darkening night, Xiao Yinzi stretched out his hand to help Lin Rongyan off the carriage, "Mother, time is running out, come down quickly."

At this time, a man in a black suit emerged from the woods not far away, his figure seemed familiar.

Lin Rongyan took a closer look, and found that the person who came was actually a servant who was by Pei Mo's side, who seemed to be called Wu Yi.

"My lord, I have brought my mother out, and I will leave the rest of the journey to you, my lord."

Xiao Yinzi said, knowing that his task was completed, he couldn't help but glanced at Lin Rongyan before leaving.

I don't know why this noble concubine who has done many bad things is worthy of my master's painstaking efforts to save him, but the master's kindness to him is as great as a mountain, and he is obliged to do this little thing.

Lin Rongyan looked at Xiao Yinzi's disappearing figure, and then she turned her head and said to Wu Yi, "Pei Mo called you here?"

Wu Yi shook his head, "Of course my wife asked me to come. If you want to thank my wife, you can thank my wife. If it wasn't for my wife's pleading, the emperor probably gave you a glass of poisoned wine to death the next day you were thrown into limbo. It took a year to announce to the outside world that you had contracted some kind of tuberculosis and died."

To be honest, he really didn't want to come out and do hard work. A while ago, in order to monitor the second prince, he didn't close his eyes for several days and nights, and he felt dizzy no matter how much he slept in the next few days.

As he said that, he put down the burden on his shoulders, handed it to Lin Rongyan and said, "Now the promise between you and Madam has been fulfilled, these are some small things that Madam gave you out of mercy, you can take them with you, save money starving."

Lin Rongyan took the burden and weighed it casually, the weight of the burden was not light, she was speechless for a while, thank you?She is such a vicious person to say thank you, is the word thank dirty?

It took a long time before she could hold back a sentence, "How is the Lin family doing now?"

"The Lin family? Beheaded beheaded, exiled in exile, there is no Lin family in Beijing anymore, even the house has been confiscated, by the way, your mother is still alive, because the emperor once gave your grandfather a gold medal to avoid death, now you Your grandfather saved your mother’s life with the gold medal for avoiding death, but your mother has lost her imperial order, and the emperor has also taken back the official position belonging to your grandfather’s family, and now your mother will return to her hometown in Kansai with her grandfather’s family.”

Wu Yi said, his voice was blown in the wind, flat and ruthless.

But it is ruthlessly clear that this is the reality.

Lin Rongyan lowered her eyebrows, and the burden pressed down on the Buddhist beads wrapped around her wrist. The wooden beads were clearly tactile, and she suddenly returned the burden to Wu Yi, "Thank you to your wife for me, can you replace the burden with this burden?" I will hand it over to my mother, I..."

Lin Rongyan suddenly realized that she had nothing to exchange for and asked Wuyi to help her.

Sure enough, Wu Yi frowned, his expression full of impatience, "If you don't want it, then I'll take this burden back with me!"
