A battle between life and death?

Lin Ruoxi leaned against the Qionghua tree, and the petals of the petals danced in the wind, falling to her side. She opened her palms, and a pink petal of the petals fell on her palm like a feather.

, she immediately clenched her hand, crushed the petals in the palm of her hand, and said with a gentle and beautiful smile: "Jingxuan, why are you so anxious? She has been banned in Fengfang Palace now, right?"

The reason why Lin Ruoxi knew about Empress Wu was because Situ Zhan told her that there was a special medicine in the golden elixir he refined, which can produce a special characteristic in human blood that can be compared with other people's blood.

When the water melted into each other, Queen Wu must not have thought that Situ Zhan would do such a thing to A Cai, and she was probably still blaming A Cai for betraying her, right?

Lin Jingxuan handed the silk handkerchief to Lin Ruoxi, her long eyebrows slightly wrinkled: "Fourth sister, it is obvious what is written on this handkerchief. She wants to send a message to Tuoba Duo, asking Tuoba Duo to

Tuobatian was annihilated in one fell swoop, and she guessed that Tuobatian had returned to Qingcheng, where he was recruiting troops and preparing to fight."

Lin Ruoxi tore the veil into pieces and threw it to the ground. The corners of her lips raised slightly: "She is indeed cunning. She actually thought of Tuoba Tian's plan. But I don't know if she can spread the news!"

[

Lin Jingxuan was puzzled and asked: "Fourth sister, why do you say that?"

"She has been banned in Fengfang Palace now. If she still dares to spread the news outside, if the emperor catches her, she will be thrown into the cold palace forever."

"If you only have such a simple idea, I'm afraid it won't be enough to deal with Empress Wu."

Lin Ruoxi smiled coldly: "Of course, if this is the only way to convince the emperor, it will not be enough for the emperor to banish her to the cold palace, but if she is charged with murdering the princess, her position as the queen will never be preserved.

.”

Lin Jingxuan opened his eyes wide: "Fourth sister, is this A Cai you are talking about? Do you want to use Queen Wu's hand to kill A Cai, and then pin this crime on Queen Wu's head?"

Lin Ruoxi shook her head gently: "Of course it won't be that simple. How could she be fooled so easily and kill A Cai? But A Cai must have never imagined that the fourth brother really poisoned the golden elixir, which is called seven days of death.

If you don't take the antidote for seven days, you will die. At that time, you will use some means to make everyone believe that Empress Wu sent someone to kill her. Then Empress Wu just wants to clear her name. If she doesn't take this responsibility, I'm afraid it will be difficult.

She wants to fight me...I'm afraid she will make a mistake again this time."

Lin Ruoxi looked deeply at Lin Ruoxi. Although he knew that Lin Ruoxi had full confidence in dealing with Empress Wu, he still felt that things were not that simple.

He sighed softly, asked Lin Ruoxi to be more careful, and left Lin Ruoxi's house.

Mo Xueyuan then sighed and said: "Master, why do you need to hide some truth from Lord Jingyu?"

Lin Ruoxi's eyes were stern just now, but now she slowly let go of that stern light and became a little softer: "If I didn't say this, he would have to make too many sacrifices for me."

"But Master, if you didn't have the help of Marquis Jingyu, how could you possibly compete with the strength of the soldiers behind Empress Wu?"

Lin Ruoxi fell into deep thought. She understood what Queen Wu meant by these words. She used the words on the veil to say that she knew Tuoba Tian's thoughts and that he was recruiting troops to fight Tuoba Duo. In essence, she was warning her.

, Now the identity of Queen Wu and her is just like the relationship between Tuoba Duo and Tuobatian. As long as Queen Wu uses the troops behind her, Lin Ruoxi will be suspicious even if she has the ability of three heads and six arms.

Mo Xueyuan could understand her mistress's mood at this moment. She didn't say another word, but took away the teapot that had cooled down on the stone table. At this moment, Situ Zhan and Situ Bin ran into the yard, their faces expressionless.

It was a bit embarrassing, but Lin Ruoxi guessed that it was not a good thing.

Situ Zhan took a deep breath before saying: "Little sister, the old lady is seriously ill and wants to see you now!"

Lin Ruoxi felt that it was not just this matter: "Fourth brother, sixth brother, is there something else that makes you so panicked?"

Situ Zhan and Situ Bin looked at each other, but fell into a brief silence. Instead, they urged Lin Ruoxi: "The old lady asked you to come over!"

Lin Ruoxi didn't ask any more questions, turned around and walked out of the house, heading towards the old lady's yard.

When they arrived at the old lady's room, Lin Ruoxi saw the old lady leaning on the bedside, coughing incessantly. Next to her were Mrs. Situ and the two daughters-in-law of the Situ family taking care of her. Lin Ruoxi saw that the old lady looked pale and her hands and feet were shaking tightly, and knew that she was sick.

It's heavier.

"Old madam, Ruoxi is here!" Madam Situ saw Lin Ruoxi coming and hurriedly reported to the old madam. Then the old madam raised her head, coughed twice, and waved to Lin Ruoxi: "Ruoxi, come here quickly.

Let the old lady take a look at you!"[

Lin Ruoxi's nose was slightly sore. She seemed to see the figure of the old lady of the Lin family in the old lady of the Situ family. She walked quickly to the old lady, squatted down, and held the old lady's trembling hand. She found that her hand was cold.

, the temperature is already almost zero.

Lin Ruoxi hurriedly stretched out her hand, rubbed it gently, and smiled softly: "Old lady, it's autumn, and the weather has also become colder. Your hands are so cold, why don't you ask someone to bring you a hand stove to warm your hands?

"

The old lady stretched out her other hand, gently rubbed Lin Ruoxi's long hair, and said kindly: "Even with a hand stove, my hands are still cold. I'm afraid that my life is over, and I'm afraid that I will die in a few days."

I can’t see you anymore!”

When Lin Ruoxi heard this, her eyes became slightly moist, but in front of the old lady, she resisted the urge to cry and just smiled gently: "The old lady will live a long life, nothing will happen to her!

"

Mrs. Situ nodded and said: "Old madam, you will definitely live a long life. Look at what you said, what do you mean by the end of your life? Even my daughter-in-law doesn't want to hear this sentence."

The eldest daughter-in-law, Mo Shi, and the third daughter-in-law, Lu Shi, said goodbye to each other. They could no longer control their emotions and began to cry with sobs.

Mrs. Situ stretched out her hands and gave them a gentle squeeze: "What are you doing? Don't cry so much. It's better to go down and have a rest. Ruoxi and I can just watch the old lady here!"

Mrs. Mo and Mrs. Lu didn't want to leave, but they were forced to leave by Mrs. Situ's sharp look: "You are still young and have not yet given birth to the Situ family's flesh and blood. You have not closed your eyes to take care of the old lady late at night for several days in a row, so you should go down and rest.

Well, it’s not good to be exhausted!”

"Yes! Mother!"

Lu and Mo looked at each other and knew that if they violated Mrs. Situ's wishes, Mrs. Situ would be angry, so they had no choice but to retreat.

The old lady was still stroking Lin Ruoxi's hair lovingly, but her eyes were filled with vicissitudes of life: "Ruoxi, grandma wants to see you get married with her own eyes, but you have become a big girl and are not married yet. This is terrible.

What should we do?”

"Old madam, when your illness is cured and Mr. Yun comes back, Ruo Xi will marry him. How about letting old madam see Ruo Xi get married with her own eyes?"

The old lady sighed softly: "Master Yun has not returned from this study tour. Ruoxi, if he wants you to wait all your life, are you willing to wait for this life in vain?"

Lin Ruoxi nodded without hesitation: "Yes, Ruoxi is willing to wait for him forever!"

"Silly boy, why are you so stubborn? In my opinion, Marquis Jingyu is not bad, and he really likes you. Just marry him. I think people are not wrong. His friendship for you is probably

You will never be shallow in this life, and I will definitely give you the happiness you want!"

Lin Ruoxi was startled affectionately. She did not expect that the old lady would suddenly say such a thing. It is said that the authorities are obsessed with the beholder. She has always only regarded Lin Jingxuan as her younger brother and never had any other ideas. Is it... is it true? Could it be that Lin Jingxuan treats her badly?

It's better than the relationship between brother and sister? Why hasn't she noticed it all this time? Why is this?

At this moment, the tea cup in Situ Zhan's hand suddenly fell to the ground, and the tea splashed all over him, but he didn't say anything, but turned and left the room.

Seeing Situ Zhan's expression, Situ Bin couldn't help but smile bitterly and shake his head. Mrs. Situ frowned and said, "What's wrong with this child? I haven't seen him so frizzy or restless today.

stand up?"

Lin Ruoxi glanced at Situ Zhan's back, and there was a hint of bitterness in her heart. Fourth brother? In fact, I have known your feelings for me for a long time, but it is really not allowed between us.

When the old lady saw Lin Ruoxi deep in thought, she said reluctantly: "Ruoxi, this is just my idea. I know that you have always liked Mr. Yun in your heart. I don't want to force you, I just want you to be happy! Even if you can't see it,

My good granddaughter is satisfied with her marriage, but I... I really don’t want to leave you, I really don’t want to leave!” 13v.

As the old lady spoke, she became so excited that tears rolled down her cheeks drop by drop. These tears of vicissitudes of life, touching tears, and tears of family affection, rolled down her vicissitudes of life drop by drop, one after another, making her

Both Lin Ruoxi and Mrs. Situ couldn't help but shed tears.

"Old madam, look what you said, you will be fine, don't say that again!" Madam Situ picked up the handkerchief and covered her mouth.[

Situ Bin saw that Mrs. Situ's body began to tremble and her body had not recovered, so he went to help Mrs. Situ.

Lin Ruoxi took out the handkerchief and was wiping the tears on the old lady's face, but the tears kept falling drop by drop. Lin Ruoxi's handkerchief was even wet, but the tears on the old lady's face were still not wiped away.

.

Lin Ruoxi choked up and said: "Old Madam, don't be so sad. Ruoxi believes that Old Madam will be fine, everything will be fine..."

"Ruoxi, Ruoxi... I think so too, but I know that I am just deceiving myself. I really can't let you go..."

Lin Ruoxi stretched out her hands and hugged the old lady, but she burst into tears in the old lady's arms and said: "Grandma, Ruoxi doesn't want you to leave, I don't want you to leave!"

Everyone in the room burst into tears when seeing such a touching scene.

After a long time, the old lady gently opened Lin Ruoxi's hands, held her shoulders with both hands, and asked sincerely: "Ruoxi, grandma knows that she is about to reach the end, but grandma still has unfulfilled wishes. I hope you can help grandma."

!”

Lin Ruoxi smiled bitterly and nodded: "Grandma, you say, I will try my best to do it!"

"First, we can take your second brother's body out of prison, give him a beautiful funeral, and bury him next to the Situ family's grave!"

Lin Ruoxi's face was stiff and pale. She couldn't believe it. She opened her eyes wide: "Second brother...Second brother, what's wrong with him?"

The old lady coughed a few times, and Lin Ruoxi hurriedly stretched out her hand to pat her back gently, and after taking a breath, she said: "Just now, news came out from the palace that your second brother has committed suicide out of fear of crime!"

Lin Ruoxi staggered and almost fell to the ground. Mo Xueyuan stretched out his hand to support her. When she saw Mrs. Situ, she had already burst into tears and her face was even more pale. What she was worried about finally happened.

.

The old lady continued: "The second thing is for me to see your aunt Situ Huifei and your father before I die. I don't want to be unable to see the two children I love most before I die.

!Maybe these things are a bit difficult for you, my child, but grandma believes in you, and only you can do these things!"

The old lady looked at Lin Ruoxi with unwavering eyes, and Lin Ruoxi clenched her fists and nodded without hesitation: "Okay, old lady, don't worry, I will try my best to do these things, and I will definitely satisfy the old lady's wish.

"

The old lady smiled with satisfaction. Although the smile was bitter and painful, she still smiled because she knew that Lin Ruoxi would definitely fulfill her unfulfilled wish before she died.
