Uncle, don't overdo it

Lin Xiner returned to the Grand Master's Mansion when it was getting dark.

In fact, she made a big circle around the capital, and finally chose to come back here.

Prince Xuan's mansion is not suitable for her to step into now, nor is the prince's mansion where she often stays, not to mention the prince will be the emperor soon.

Originally, if only Ximenche was the emperor, many people would be worried, but Ximenche had King Xuan behind him. After this change, the courtiers no longer dared to hold prejudice against King Xuan, and instead valued his status in the court more.

There was a heavy lock on the gate of Grand Master's Mansion, Lin Xiner went around to the backyard wall, found the location of the hut she lived in before, and jumped over the wall.

In an uninhabited place, the ground should be flat after a snowfall, but what Lin Xiner saw was a mess of footprints stuck in the snow.

In order to find Ximen Yin, a search was also conducted in the Taishi Mansion, but Ximen Yin was still allowed to escape.

Lin Xiner's eyes flashed, and she walked quickly to her room.

There was someone in the room. When Lin Xiner pushed the door and entered, she suddenly stood up.

Dressed in red, so dazzling.

"Master Gu!" Lin Xiner called out, raised her head slightly without showing any signs, and glanced at the roof.

"You finally came, and you didn't make me wait in vain." Gu Qingcheng laughed at the stunning beauty.

As a man, Lin Xiner always felt that such beauty was too unreal.

"Lord Gu also knows that I have nowhere to go, so I have to come back here." Lin Xiner smiled self-deprecatingly.

"If you wish, the door of Gu's mansion is always open to you." Gu Qingcheng looked at Lin Xiner, his eyes were undisguisedly hot.

Her beauty will always fascinate him, and Fairy Mochizuki is his lingering dream.

"Master Gu is here to take me back to the manor? If that's the case, I'm sorry, it's useless." Lin Xiner walked to the chair on the side, raised her sleeves to sweep the dust on it, and sat down.

"I know that I don't have the ability to force Ms. Lin to stay. I only listen to Ms. Lin's own opinion." Gu Qingcheng did not show any disappointment, and still looked at Lin Xiner with enthusiasm in her eyes.

He knew that he was obsessed with Lin Xiner, it was the same but different from the former Ximenche.

In his eyes, Lin Xiner was originally more real than Ximenche, so her "change" would not affect her opinion. To be precise, he was obsessed with Fairy Wangyue, but he also admired Lin Xiner.

I don't know how much love is in this kind of admiration, but it is more about the feeling that this woman is taller than the man standing in front of her, and she seems to have to look up to see clearly.

"What are you waiting for me here?" Lin Xiner asked.

She also didn't believe that Gu Qingcheng came to wait for her in the Grand Master's Mansion just to meet her and say a few ordinary words to her. If this was the case, she wouldn't be the Gu Qingcheng who could be reused by the court.

"During this period of time, I didn't pay attention to the affairs of the court, but it's not like I didn't do anything. I just sat aside and watched the show." Gu Qingcheng said.

Pull up the hem of the clothes and sit on another chair, although in the simple house, there is a slight bit of cold wind leaking, it does not affect the demeanor of the red body.

"What you did has something to do with me?" It was only for this reason that Gu Qingcheng would look for her, Lin Xiner knew it well.

"To be precise, I was ordered by King Xuan to do something." Gu Qingcheng said.

"Huh?" Lin Xiner looked sideways at Gu Qingcheng.

"You know, I will lose my principles in front of you." Gu Qingcheng smiled, originally he would never do things for anyone, but because of Lin Xiner, he intervened in some foreign affairs.

"Really? I can't afford to let Mr. Gu kill and set fire because of me." Lin Xiner said.

"First of all, you have to know how to ask me to do murder and arson." Gu Qingcheng is not worried about this. He just lost his original principle of doing things, but he did not lose the principle of being a human being. He also believed that Lin Xiner would not let He lost, otherwise it wouldn't be worth his obsession.

"To tell you the truth, Mr. Gu, I just killed someone before I came back here." Lin Xiner said indifferently, she still felt like she was stepping on the southeast, and that kick was definitely the most ruthless she had ever been.

"It's been so long, hasn't your hatred faded away?" Gu Qingcheng saw the hatred flickering in Lin Xiner's eyes, and she couldn't hide it even if she suffered a great injury.

"I also want to be free and go back to the past." Lin Xiner looked forward.

The sky was dark, and a pair of bright eyes sparkled.

"Actually, King Xuan just asked me to investigate about Xia Yubing." Gu Qingcheng moved the topic away.

During this period of time, it seemed that he was indifferent to the affairs of the court, and after allowing King Xuan to cover the sky with his hands, almost earth-shaking changes occurred. In fact, he has been investigating the old incident nearly 20 years ago.

This is also the secret order given to him by King Xuan.

"What did you find?"

This was naturally Lin Xiner's concern. Ximen Jingxuan did it according to her entrustment, and the person chosen was actually Gu Qingcheng.

"First of all, I went to check the files of the Xia family back then, but the files were incomplete. The criminal department caught fire and burned most of the files about the Xia family. I'm afraid it will be difficult to recover the truth of the Xia family's case." Gu Qingcheng said, "However, I found another matter, which can somewhat deduce the problem of the Xia family's case."

"What?" Lin Xiner asked.

"The ancestor of the Xia family was originally an official of the Leng family in the previous dynasty, but later fell into decline. It was Xia Yubing's father's generation, and by chance, he became an official of the Ximen royal family." Gu Qingcheng said.

"You mean because of the background of the Xia family, even if the Xia family was framed, the late emperor would acquiesce?" Lin Xiner understood what Gu Qingcheng meant.

Gu Qingcheng nodded, "According to the previous emperor's treatment of Leng's family, it is not surprising to treat the heirs of the former officials like this. Otherwise, the criminal department was under fire and so many files in charge were destroyed. Why did no one receive any serious punishment?"

"It was the late emperor who pushed this matter behind the scenes." Lin Xiner was thoughtful.

Thinking of Ximen Jinglie's deep apology that he saw in Jinyang Palace, in order to perform well in front of the late emperor, and to keep the crown prince, he could see Ru Taifei marrying the late emperor with hatred, so naturally he would not Pay attention to the Xia family's affairs.

"Later, only one member of the Xia family, Xia Yubing, was rescued by your grandfather, the prime minister at the time. As for the rest of the Xia family, although they were sentenced to be sent to the frontier in the end, I asked my servants to investigate secretly, and there was no one from the Xia family. Some people went to the frontier to be punished, but some people returned to the court to restore the order." Gu Qingcheng continued.

"In other words, it is very likely that members of the Xia family were killed on the way." Lin Xiner said.

It was because no one cared, so the affairs of the Xia family were left alone, or her father and her grandfather were hindered by various reasons, even if they knew that the members of the Xia family were killed, they would not say much, and Xia Yubing must have been left behind. It took a lot of effort.

Lin Bo loves Xia Yubing and is willing to save her, but Lin Bo didn't have the ability to save people back then, so it was her grandfather, Lin Bo's father-in-law, who came forward to save people.

The father-in-law rescued the son-in-law's sweetheart for his son-in-law, and the intercession of his own daughter, her mother, must have been indispensable. Her mother saved Xia Yubing more or less for the purpose of making her father look at her differently, but in the end, because of Xia Yubing's death, she was Her father has always hated her to the bone.Lin Xiner felt very sorry for her mother when she thought about it.
