Chapter 222 Visiting Nannei
Si Qing said: "This is also what I don't understand. These cases ended with Duke Jing being killed by Lao Jingwang's Jiaozhao. What happened in the middle, and how the Empress Dowager reacted at that time, I don't know anything. I also don't understand that Prince Kang's mansion has such a good opportunity to plot against him, why the third brother doesn't want to reverse the case for Duke Jing?"

Ling Zhen thought of a possibility, "Duke Yasukuni really has the heart of disobedience?"

"I don't think so," Si Qing said, "There may be more complications."

"Then there is no reason for His Majesty to be silent," Ling Zhen said, "unless King Zong still has a hole card."

"No more," Si Qing said, "Last year, the third brother was afraid of the King of Anping County, but now it seems that the King of Anping County has other ideas."

Ling Zhen said: "The matter is over, why should the girl get to the bottom of it?"

"As long as the case is reversed for Duke Jing, then Uncle Fu and brother don't have to be afraid of the past. As for Princess Shangyang, I really don't understand what the third brother is awkward about." Si Qing said.

Ling Zhen dissuaded, "Prince Duan has been hiding his clumsiness after all, so please take it easy, girl."

Siqing nodded, "I want to see the Lin family's sister-in-law. Before I return to Da Nei, you go and invite her here. There is one more thing I must clarify before the Lin family leaves Beijing."

Ling Zhen hesitated a bit, "Madam Lin please come here?"

Siqing said, "Yes."

"Girl," Ling Zhen said, "Aren't you a little..."

"What do I have?" Si Qing asked.

Lingzhen hesitated and said, "Isn't it a bit...obvious? You called Mr. Fu here before."

Si Qing said: "I thought that I have always been very cautious, and it would be better if I didn't get better in the end. Why do you feel wronged? It's hard to bring someone here without being discovered by outsiders?"

Ling Zhen was a little hesitant, "It's a bit late today."

Siqing said: "Just today, I have to go back to Ninghua Palace as soon as possible."

Ling Zhen said: "I don't understand what the girl thinks?"

Siqing's eyes flickered, "Such a good opportunity, why did the third brother keep silent about the case of Lord Yasukuni and Yu Yunhe? I am not too afraid of being found out now. If I shout out, I will investigate. Now that I really investigate, right now Could it be that His Majesty will fail against the kings in this situation? It will be hard to say in the future."

While talking, someone came to look for Ling Zhen, Si Qing said: "Go and do your work, I'll let Ling Bo go find the sister-in-law of the Lin family."

Siqing said that he wanted to see Mrs. Lin, so Yuan Lingbo went to the Lin's house to look for Mrs. Lin, but he was in vain.All the way to Xie's house, Lin Zhizhong and his wife were indeed talking at Xie's house.Because Lin Zhizhong and his wife had met Yuan Lingbo before, they had no doubts about her.It was getting dark early in winter, and Madam Lin was about to go with Yuan Lingbo, but at this time someone knocked on the door suddenly.Xie Yan went to open the door, and the snow fluttered under the candle again.Three servants came in, and six servants with swords roared in from outside.

Xie Yan stretched out his hand to stop them, and went to the outer hall to meet the guests. Lin Zhizhong and his wife were behind the main hall wall, and Yuan Lingbo stood in the dark of the main hall with arms folded. The three yellow gates were all wearing fur-collared cloaks covering half of their faces. One person said seriously: "There is a decree, Zuo Chunfang Xie Yan accepts the decree."

Xie Yan hurriedly saluted, Yuan Lingbo frowned, and saw the leader, Huang Men, shaking his fat head, and the one on the right, Huang Men, immediately brought a cup of wine, which was undoubtedly poisonous wine.

Xie Yan seemed to tremble violently. Although he has always been tolerant, since Gu Heng's accident, he has seen too many scenes that he shouldn't have seen, and has been in extreme anxiety.But this situation made him calm down quickly, as if it was what he expected.

He took the wine cup slowly, Lin Zhizhong and his wife, who couldn't see or hear clearly, were very disturbed behind the wall, and gestured to Yuan Lingbo.Yuan Lingbo suddenly appeared and strode out, "Wait a minute."

The wine cup was knocked to the ground by Yuan Lingbo, Xie Yan was taken aback, Huang Men was also horrified, the six servants behind him drew their swords one after another, Yuan Lingbo didn't look at Xie Yan, looked at Huang Men and said: " Mr. Xie, have you done anything wrong recently?"

Before Xie Yan could answer, Huang Men, who was the leader, roared angrily: "Where is the lunatic, come here..." Yuan Lingbo raised his sleeves, and a bunch of fireworks scattered in the night, which was particularly obvious.The Huangmen stalled, and Yuan Lingbo asked again: "This nobleman, where are you from? Do you have a waist plate? Show it." He said and looked at the six attendants with swords behind him, "Come here to deliver the order , it should belong to the Jinwu Guard, is it the left guard or the right guard? Is there any handwriting from General Cheng or General Sun?"

Huangmen was furious, "Take it down for me!"

Yuan Lingbo smiled, "Don't yell, yelling, you don't look like an official of the Huangmen." After speaking, he pushed Xie Yan into the room, pulled out his sword and jumped forward to fight the opponent .Lin Zhizhong and his wife heard the sound, Xie Yan was already dazed, Lin Zhizhong asked: "What's going on?"

Before Xie Yan could answer, Yuan Lingbo had one against six, and the scene was anxious for a while.There was a knock at the door, and a group of plainclothes servants with knives rushed in again.Xie Yangang wanted to tell Lin Zhizhong and his wife to run quickly, but who knew that these people first hijacked the three Huangmen and quickly joined Yuan Lingbo's team battle.Yuan Lingbo pulled out, Madam Lin asked: "Miss Yuan, this is..."

Yuan Lingbo said: "There must be some misunderstanding. Mr. Xie, you should ask yourself clearly before you die."

As soon as the words fell, the nine people who came to "deliver the decree" were restrained by the guards and guards summoned by Yuan Lingbo. Yuan Lingbo stepped forward and said with a smile: "Your Excellency's appearance is really not very good. Full of spirit."

Xie Yan woke up like a dream, Yuan Lingbo said again: "What about you? Is it the real Jinwu Guard or the fake Jinwu Guard? It's true. Please invite General Sun. I have a few words to ask General Sun."

No one answered, Yuan Lingbo asked again: "Then tell me, who instructed you to pretend to be an inner prison and pass orders to the imperial army? Why did you come to Xie's house?"

Still no one answered, Yuan Lingbo was about to kill someone with a knife in his hand, when suddenly a government army guard came in to report, "It is said that a group of people came out from the nearby houses in several groups from the nearby Wukui Street and went to various places in the city. went."

Yuan Lingbo's complexion changed, "Chase!"

Step by step, she walked up to the fake Huangmen who was holding the wine just now, "Say, where have you been instructed by whom?"

The Huangmen officer kept silent, who knew that Yuan Lingbo would kill him on the ground with his sword in his hand.Mrs. Lin was shocked, and quickly looked away. Yuan Lingbo asked the remaining fake Huangmen, "You still have another chance, should you say it or not?"

Then one person trembled and said, "Zhongyun, Zanshan, and Sizhilanglang from Chunfang on the left and right all have..."

Yuan Lingbo's complexion changed drastically, and he beckoned for the imperial army to take away the remaining eight people. First, he gave some orders to the imperial army, and the other party rushed out, and then said to the imperial army: "Miss Xiaying from Jiaguo's mansion Come here." Then he said to Xie Yan: "Mr. Xie, go to see your superior and say that someone pretended to be an inner eunuch to pass on the decree, but you have exposed it."

Before Xie Yan could recover, Yuan Lingbo said to Lin Zhizhong again: "Mr. Lin, you go back first. Please, Mrs. Lin, come with me."

Lin Zhizhong seemed to have doubts, Mrs. Lin nodded to him, signaling Lin Zhizhong not to worry.Yuan Lingbo took Mrs. Lin away in a hurry. Just as he reached the entrance of the alley, he met the guards of the government who came to report secretly. Yuan Lingbo asked, "General Sun has passed? I'll go right away."

She led Mrs. Lin all the way to the Fujunwei Yamen at Dengshikou, and happened to meet Xiaying, and said: "There is trouble tonight, sister Xiaying, Your Highness asked Mrs. Lin to go to the south to talk, to bother you." Take Mrs. Lin there."

Xia Ying said: "I see, you should be more careful." Then she said to Mrs. Lin, "Please follow me."

Mrs. Lin agreed, and got into Xiaying's car. Xiaying didn't ask what happened, but Mrs. Lin felt uneasy.

Yuan Lingbo flew all the way back to the military guard of the mansion, and Sun Chengfu had already arrived.When the two met, Yuan Lingbo said succinctly and clearly: "Someone pretended to be the Yellow Gate and delivered an order to the Forbidden Army. The target was the subordinates of Chunfang. Fortunately, it was discovered early, so we should be able to catch up."

Sun Chengfu's complexion was even uglier than Yuan Lingbo's, "Thanks to Miss Yuan who found out in time, His Majesty is in Xiyuan, I'll go see His Majesty first."

Yuan Lingbo nodded, and sent Sun Chengfu out, only to see that the snow had stopped, and the wind was bitter and cold, to the bone.

Mrs. Lin followed Xiaying anxiously to Qingxi Garden, passed through the layer defense and did not know where she was. It was already late at night when she got off the bus. Yunchu was looking around at the door, and she was quite surprised to see Xiaying, "Sister Xiaying, why are you here?" Where's Lingbo?" He said, leading the two of them into the side hall of Yilan Hall. The hall was as warm as spring, and Penglai incense was burning. Siqing smiled and said, "The sister-in-law of the Lin family is here." Then she asked Xiaying, "What are you doing?" coming?"

Xia Ying said: "Ling Bo asked me to come, it seems that something urgent happened to her."

Siqing smiled, "I see, you go back quickly, it will be hard to go when the snow is heavy."

Xiaying saluted and exited, Siqing said to Yuchu, "Go see your sister Xiaying off."

Siqing was wearing a homely autumn-scented skirt, a cinnamon double-breasted round-neck gown, her hair was tied up in a high bun, and there was a beaded and tassel hairpin hanging on it.Yunchu stepped forward to take away Madam Lin's cloak, offered tea, and then pulled back the clothes. Siqing stepped forward to hold Madam Lin's hand and said, "Sister-in-law, what's wrong? Your hands are so cold?"

Mrs. Lin panicked for a moment, and in her hand was a copper stove covered with a brocade mattress. Siqing replied, "Sit down and talk."

Mrs. Lin suddenly raised her head and hesitated to speak, Si Qing said: "I know my brother is awake, thank you for taking care of him this time."

Mrs. Lin hesitated, "Your Highness..."

Siqing smiled, "Sister-in-law, you can still call me Siqing."

Madam Lin lowered her head uneasily, and Si Qing asked, "What happened today? Were you questioned by the guards when you came? It's okay..."

Mrs. Lin shook her head, and finally said: "I'm from Xie's house, Mr. Xie almost had an accident tonight..."

Mrs. Lin talked about what happened at Xie's house tonight, Siqing's face suddenly changed after hearing Mrs. Lin's words, and she walked up and down irritably, "Sister-in-law said that not only people went to Xie's house tonight, but also somewhere else?"

Madam Lin nodded, Siqing closed her eyes and settled down, "Forget it, wait for Ling Bo to investigate."

Siqing sat down again, and said to Mrs. Lin: "I know Fourth Brother Xie is definitely uneasy these days. If you tell him, just say I said it. No matter what, I can't kill him because of what happened a while ago and let him Don't worry, okay?"

Mrs. Lin nodded again and again, Si Qing said: "Sister-in-law, you are not such a taciturn character, just say what you have to say."

Siqing talked about her life experience, and the two talked about Lin Bofu. Mrs. Lin cried: "Sister Bofu has been with us for so many years. I really love her, but she just doesn't listen to me. Mrs. Jia Guogong has been reminding me, but I can't be cruel when I see my sister forcing her to die. If I knew it would be like this, even if I knocked her unconscious, I would have to take her out of Xu's house. How could she I just can't think about it..."

Siqing comforted her for a long time, Madam Lin was greatly mourned, and kept saying, "I thought my sister was too infatuated, it's really not worth it."

Siqing said succinctly, "He's dead."

Mrs. Lin was taken aback, "Who?"

"Xu Wenchang is dead."

"How did you die?!"

Siqing shook her head, "Many people want him to shut up. I'm afraid it's hard to find out whether he committed suicide or someone else did it."

Mrs. Lin was dumbfounded, and Siqing then asked: "Sister-in-law, do you know if Yao Yuantu has any contact with Xu Wenchang? Especially through your Lin family, is there any contact with Xu Wenchang?"

Mrs. Lin shook her head, "Never heard of it. Once when Yao Fuyuan visited, I heard him scold Xu."

Siqing asked again: "Then Yu Yunhe, is there any family member alive?"

Mrs. Lin thought for a while, "He has a granddaughter who was still a baby, but her whereabouts are unknown. I have seen her mother a few times, and her mother died of illness when something happened at Yu Yunhe's house."

Siqing couldn't see any expression, she just said, "Does Sister-in-law still remember what her mother looks like?"

Mrs. Lin nodded, and Si Qing said: "Sister-in-law is good at painting, do me a favor and draw a shadow."

Mrs. Lin agreed, without asking why, Siqing said: "I believe you can see that I have many difficulties, so I will not tell my sister-in-law about some things. If anyone finds out what you asked Wenchang Xu, they will all reject it." Don’t know, don’t communicate, don’t answer any questions from them.”

Mrs. Lin nodded solemnly, and Si Qing asked, "Are you ready to leave Beijing?"

"Yes," Mrs. Lin said, "it's just a few days. I really don't want to stay in the imperial capital for one more day."

Si Qing said: "Then before you leave, can you do me another favor?"

Mrs. Lin said: "Of course, if we..."

"It's very simple," Siqing interrupted, "After all, Lin and Zheng have been friends before, and Zheng Yiqin is in the Imperial City. Since Big Brother Lin is here, it shouldn't be strange to pay a visit, right?"

"Zheng Yiqin is in the Imperial Capital?" Mrs. Lin was even more confused now.

"He's here," Siqing said, "help me see if he's crazy."

Mrs. Lin wondered: "Is he crazy?" She immediately agreed.

Si Qing said: "Thank you, sister-in-law. Thank you also for taking the risk to help my brother when he had an accident. This time it was really a risk."

Mrs. Lin said: "Bo Fu is stupid, Liang Fen is also stupid, we don't think about our family members. We didn't do anything, how can we be worthy of thanks?"

Si Qing said: "I will always remember when I lived in Lin's family when I was a child, and my sister-in-law coaxed me to sleep in the tent. I can grow up to this age, and my brother and I can grow up to this day..." She talked and changed I lost my voice and couldn't speak anymore.

At this time Yunchu came in to report: "Girl, Ling Bo is here."
