The concubine is soft and delicate, making her the treacherous minister's white moonlight

Chapter 187 If you spread false information again, I will kill you

After hearing this, Liu Yinghong couldn't hold back her smile, but before she could say anything, the other party said, "I looked around, and the girls here are not bad, but compared to her, they are not as good, so I want to redeem her."

Liu Yinghong understood that she had run into a tough guy. This guy was smarter than Jin Qiu and didn't use force. After a brief thought, she cleverly moved and stood in front of Lin Mowan, smiling sweetly, "You two gentlemen have a good eye, but it's a pity that this girl doesn't sell her art or her body. She is a distinguished guest of our Yuxianglou."

After these words were spoken, the expressions of the father and son were awkward for a moment. The man glared fiercely at the boy beside him. The boy knew he was in the wrong and quickly lowered his head.

The man didn't say anything else, but stepped aside and rubbed his hands awkwardly, saying, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."

As he spoke, he grabbed the young man by the collar and walked out of Yuxiang Tower. The two of them stood on the steps and stared at each other. After a long while, Liu Yinghong murmured, "It's really strange."

Then, she seemed a little worried, turned to look at Lin Mowan, and said, "I'd better send a few people to take you back." As she spoke, she turned around and called downstairs, "Xiaochun!"

While waiting, she turned around and looked at Lin Mowan: "Ask someone to follow you and watch you come back, otherwise I will be worried."

Lin Mowan remained silent but did not refuse. Although there would be no danger for her to go alone, she still nodded in agreement. She knew in her heart that it was Liu Yinghong who was worried about her.

After coming out of Yuxiang Tower, Lin Mowan did not stay for long. She got on the carriage that came to pick her up and left.

dark place.

Lin Qinhai grabbed Lin Tianxiao's ears and asked through gritted teeth: "Little bastard, didn't you say that she was a girl from Yuxianglou? What are you doing? You just said nonsense when you have found out the truth. If you spread false information again, I will beat you to death!"

Lin Tianxiao's ears were pulled, and the pain stimulated his tears. Tears flowed down his cheeks, and he quickly admitted his mistake: "Oh, Dad, please be gentle. How would I know? I saw her on the third floor with a sad face, and I really thought she was forced."

He cried out "ouch, ouch". Perhaps he was tired, or maybe he felt he had been taught a lesson enough. Only then did Lin Qinhai let go of Lin Tianxiao's ear and angrily put his hands on his waist, as if he had not yet recovered from the embarrassment just now.

Lin Tianxiao rubbed his ears and glanced at him with a wronged and guilty look. After Lin Qinhai calmed down a little, his brows unconsciously frowned and he muttered for no reason: "It's really weird, they really look alike."

Upon hearing this, Lin Tianxiao ignored the pain in his ears and agreed: "Yeah, yeah, I said I didn't lie to you, so I didn't lie to you."

Lin Qinhai seemed to have not recovered yet. He just turned his head and looked at the direction where Lin Mowan's carriage left with a strange and suspicious look...

When Lin Mowan returned to Zither Garden, it was already late at night. Qingyi Lane was not busy. There were only lanterns hanging outside the gates of several courtyards in the distance, and the orange-yellow light reflected on the uneven bricks and tiles.

The lanterns in front of Wisteria Garden were also lit, and the gate to the courtyard was open. Two guards were standing outside the not-so-big gate, probably brought by Shen Weiyuan.

Lin Mowan was a little suspicious. Generally speaking, Shen Weiyuan would be very low-key when he came here. It was rare for him to bring so many people here and have people guarding the door in a high-profile manner.

After a moment of hesitation, she took a deep breath, tried to keep herself calm, entered the yard, walked through the front hall, and turned a corner in the not-so-big yard, where her room was.

The lights in the room were on, and the dim light shone on the window paper. In the flickering, Shen Junchi's words kept flashing through Lin Mowan's mind, and her steps slowed down unconsciously.

Until the door was pushed open, he sat at her desk reading a book as usual, the dim light shone on his smooth face, his eyes flashed with soft light, and he looked inexplicably sad.

She walked into the room calmly. Yuzhi tactfully did not follow her in and closed the door carefully.

"Second Master." She walked to the table and bowed slightly. Hearing the voice, he seemed to pretend to be nonchalant and raised his eyes, his gaze fell on her. He put down the book and raised his hand to signal her to come over. She did not refuse as usual.

Gently holding her hand, she walked to him and knelt down obediently. He held her hand and was silent for the first time. Lin Mowan looked up at him and asked in confusion, "Second Master? What's wrong?"

He asked, "Did my eldest brother come to see you today?"

Lin Mowan did not answer immediately, but hesitated for a moment, lowered her eyes, avoided his gaze, and nodded slightly. Hearing him ask this, Lin Mowan had a rough idea in her mind and understood the purpose of his visit.

Before he could speak, Lin Mowan took the initiative to say, "It's nothing serious. I just broke a crabapple tree, and nothing else happened."

For some reason she didn't say anything else, perhaps because she had heard that the two brothers had a good relationship. She didn't want to be the knife that cut them apart. This was definitely not her intention.

After all, she was never one to repay kindness with enmity.

Shen Weiyuan said nothing, but looked at her with deep eyes and silently held her hand tightly, "I'm sorry, I'll find you a new place to live tomorrow."

He spoke in a tone that was not one of negotiation. Lin Mowan remained silent, but she understood what he meant. He probably didn't want Shen Junchi to disturb her.

She looked out the window. The moonlight was nice tonight, shining on the crabapple flowers. The window divided the scenery outside into four squares.

She shook her head: "I like it here very much, can we not move away?"

She really didn't want to move away.

Shen Weiyuan hesitated, tightened and loosened his grip on her hand, and after a long while, he seemed to compromise, and nodded in agreement: "Since you like it, then don't move."

After hearing his words, Lin Mowan's frown immediately relaxed, revealing a gentle and obedient smile, and was easily embraced by Shen Weiyuan.

"Lin Qinhai is back."

Lin Mowan leaned lightly in his arms, listening to his words. She was stunned at first, then realized something and didn't respond, but her heart was extremely confused.

Lin Qinhai, Lin Yirou's brother, was not in Sheng'an when the Lin family was ransacked. He was ordered by the emperor to escort the imperial concubine to a remote and quiet place to recuperate.

Later, when the Lin family got into trouble, he was hunted by the royal family. He built his own stronghold on the border and proclaimed himself king. It is said that he was really difficult to deal with. The emperor sent troops to encircle and suppress him more than once, but in the end it was of no avail.

Lin Mowan didn't actually have much expectations for this nominal uncle. After all, her arrival was not glorious. Perhaps Lin Qinhai came back just for Lin Yirou, and now that she was gone, he probably wouldn't recognize her.

While thinking, Lin Mowan felt that her mood was a little complicated, but the only thing she could clearly feel was helplessness and fear, and absolutely no expectations.

She closed her eyes and didn't answer...

For the first time ever, he just slept with her in his arms tonight. His broad arms were firm and warm, which made Lin Mowan feel reluctant to leave...
