After being killed by the villain husband

Chapter 54
At night, Shang Shixu went to the barracks to count the number of people and hadn't come back yet. Lin Jingmo sat in the tent bored and began to look through the ledger on the table.

Shuangyin pushed the curtain in with the brewed tea and saw Lin Jingmo flipping through the ledger. She squatted at the table, put down the tea, and asked softly, "What are you looking at, madam?"

Lin Jingmo raised his head, picked up the tea bowl on the table and took a sip: "This is the account of the Lu family army in the north for the past three years."

"Isn't Madam running this trip just to help Mr. Shi Lang find out the accounts of the Northern Territory?" She picked up the teapot and refilled Lin Jingmo's tea, and continued: "Madam, can you see what's going on?"

Lin Jingmo closed the account book, put it aside, stretched his waist and said, "How can I understand this."

Shuangyin tilted her head to think for a while, and said, "However, Shuangyin and Madam have been separated for the past two days, but I heard something."

Lin Jingmo didn't think much when he heard the words, but picked up another account book and flipped through it, and asked casually, "What's the matter?"

Shuangyin approached Lin Jingmo and whispered, "I also heard from a teahouse keeper. I heard that the guards in the northern border town collaborated with the enemy. The war between the two countries is just a show. The people there know it all."

Lin Jingmo hurriedly asked: "The guard of the border city? Do you mean General Lu?"

Duoyin nodded.

Lin Jingmo didn't believe it, and said suspiciously: "The enemy told you on purpose, how could General Lu treason the country and cooperate with the enemy?"

But Shuangyin replied: "Those people said something in a decent way, it doesn't seem like they made it up, and it is said that they also know a lot of inside information!"

Lin Jingmo tilted his head, and his facial features couldn't help twisting together: "How could they tell you such an important matter?"

Shuangyin smiled and said: "They and I are ordinary people's family. They have no doubts about me. Seeing that I came from Southern Qi, I lied to them that I was going to Beiyan to join relatives. They wanted to keep me in Beiyan. , so I said that."

Lin Jingmo was skeptical. After all, she knew that Shuangyin grew up with her. Although there were some misunderstandings before, but this time she took the risk to come to Beiyan with her. It shows his loyalty, and she doesn't need to lie to herself.

Lin Jingmo stood up and said to Shuangyin: "In that case, why don't you take me to that store and ask how it is?"

Shuangyin shook her head: "Last time I told him that I was going to seek refuge with relatives, but this time I took my wife with me, what should I say?"

Lin Jingmo took out an ingot of gold and said: "Even if the coins used by the two countries are different, but this is gold, even if it is melted, it is worth a lot of money! We will give him the money, as long as he gives an approximate idea, if it is true The Lu family is plotting something wrong, if the husband continues to investigate, I'm afraid it will be dangerous, plus he has a military department beside him... Find out as soon as possible, so we can report it to the imperial court, and we can send the news back to the capital as soon as possible. Return to Beijing one step earlier."

Shuangyin nodded and said, "Exactly! Why don't we go tonight?"

"Tonight?" Lin Jingmo was thinking about when would be the best time to go, when he suddenly heard that the outsider Shi Shu had returned.

Shang Shixu looked at the ledger flipped by Lin Jingmo at the table, and waved his hand to signal Shuangyin to go out.

Shuangyin also shook his head towards Lin Jingmo, and then walked out of the account. After Shuangyin went out, Shang Shixu sat at the low table to reclassify and tidy up the accounts.

Lin Jingmo was sitting next to him, and when he was about to talk about what Shuangyin had mentioned just now, Shang Shixu spoke first: "What is the purpose of madam's coming to the north this time?"

Lin Jingmo on the side was stunned by the question: If you tell him that it is to help him find out the matter of the northern border as soon as possible, and at the same time beware of Yu Qianzhi, the confidant of Shangshu of the Ministry of War, he should let me go back to Beijing as soon as possible, right?

"No matter why Madam came to the north, it's very dangerous here, you should set off to return to Beijing." Before Lin Jingmo could answer, Shang Shixu really started planning to send her back.

Lin Jingmo thought for a moment, then suddenly said: "I actually came to see General Lu."

Shang Shixu stopped what he was doing, raised his head and looked at Lin Jingmo's bright but guilty eyes, as if he would guess anything about Lin Jingmo, he curled his lips: "General Lu? Are you here?" Look at Old General Lu, or Young General Lu?"

"Old General Lu!" Lin Jingmo said with a playful smile, "Husband, don't you know, Lu...Old General and Daddy are good friends, but unfortunately they haven't seen each other for a long time, I think, they must want to meet, just in time for my father My birthday is approaching, so I specially invited General Lu to the birthday banquet!"

Shang Shixu lowered his head, continued to sort out the accounts, and said, "I only know that if a letter can solve the problem, the teacher will definitely not let you come to this turbulent northern border." After finishing speaking, he raised his head Lai smiled slyly: "So tomorrow I will send someone to take you back to Beijing."

Lin Jingmo pursed his lips, turned to the other side angrily, and said angrily, "Then I didn't actually come to find the old general."

Shang Shixu stopped his hands and raised his head to look at her.

She didn't know which tendon was wrong, and suddenly raised her neck and started talking nonsense: "I'm here to see General Lu."

Shang Shixu was stunned for a moment, his eyes suddenly wandered again, he lowered his head a little at a loss, and didn't speak.

Lin Jingmo regretted in his heart: Lin Jingmo, Lin Jingmo, what nonsense are you talking about!You don't even have the slightest impression of that Lu Feicheng...

But Shang Shixu took it seriously. He was guilty of killing Lin Jingmo, but now there is another Lu Feicheng who grew up with his childhood sweetheart, who is better than him regardless of family background, fame and wealth...

At that moment just now, he even felt in his heart that since he was not worthy of Lin Jingmo at all and could not bring her a comfortable life, maybe Lu Feicheng was more suitable for her and more likely to bring her happiness.

He raised his head slightly, looked at Lin Jingmo who was bewildered, and replied lightly: "Yes."

Seeing his indifferent reaction, Lin Jingmo's heart turned cold: Oh no, he took it seriously.Just now, he was just talking nonsense and trying to send me back to Beijing, but now he just hummed casually?
Lin Jingmo called out carefully and softly: "Husband..."

Shang Shixu continued to sort out the ledger as if he hadn't heard it.

So Lin Jingmo raised his voice and shouted: "Shang Shixu!"

Shang Shixu raised his head to look at Lin Jingmo, and Lin Jing lowered his head again, only to hear Shang Shixu say indifferently: "Young general is young and promising. An important person who cannot be missed. You grew up together, and it is no secret that you are fond of him. This time you came to the northern border without fear of hardships. If you really like each other, I can reconcile with my wife."

Lin Jingmo slowly raised his head upon hearing the words, and looked at Shang Shixu with an incredulous expression on his face: "Harmony?!"
