Chapter 353 Determination
Updated yesterday, and there are still today!
☆★☆★☆★
October 15th is destined to be an extraordinary day.
Lin Zhaoyan washed and dressed up as usual, but for the first time, she wore a long water-red dress, which made her already fair face look as bright and translucent as mutton fat.
Manshuang took a moon-white rabbit fur-edged cloak and put it on her, then carefully tied it up, and then said, "Girl, are you really going?"
Lin Zhaoyan nodded without hesitation at all, "I always have to go and take a look."
Take a look at her unswerving choices and what kind of fruits she will bear, so that she can strengthen her determination.
When Manshuang heard this, he didn't say much.
After following Lin Zhaoyan for so long, she knew something, although she had not explained it clearly.
Lin Zhaoyan left the door, and Manhua greeted him and whispered, "Girl, everything is ready. The carriage is right outside the side door. I and my wife said to you to go to Lingyun Temple to ask for a visa, but the wife has no doubts."
"Yeah." Lin Zhaoyan nodded, waved his hand to say goodbye to Manshuang, and walked out of the yard with Manhua's hand.
The occasion to go to later is a little chaotic. She needs someone to protect her. Xuan Wen is the best choice, so she naturally has to take Manhua there.
After leaving the yard, he went all the way to the side door. It was indeed unobstructed. This was not because Manhua had great ability and could mobilize all the servants of the Hou Mansion. However, the Hou Mansion was in turmoil recently and people were distracted. Almost everyone's attention was focused on the small world of Rongshoutang. Naturally, there was no time to notice her, a useless little girl.
This "useless" was also said by Mrs. Lin.
As for the reason, it starts with Lin Kun's dismissal.
More than a month ago, Lin Kun was removed from office as the Senate of Tongzhengsi. Old Mrs. Lin fainted in fear, and then she kept asking someone to send messages to the palace, hoping that Concubine Jing could provide some help.
However, the water from the married daughter splashed out by the water, Concubine Jing fought with Concubine Duan in the palace, and because the third prince has become increasingly unpopular with the emperor recently, she has been unable to take care of herself, so she dared not pull her beard on the tiger's face, so she only asked Mrs. Lin to be calm and wait quietly.
What kind of person is Mrs. Lin? How could she be so perfunctory? Lin Kun’s dismissal was inexplicably done, without any signs. She was very afraid that the activities Lin Kun had done for the third prince were discovered by the emperor. This was a sign of their disaster in Jian'an Marquis' Mansion.
People often do behaviors that do not conform to their IQ and rationality when they are extremely afraid.
Mrs. Lin, coupled with the messy things that happened in the Marquis' Mansion in the end, she lost the insidiousness and cunning she once proud of, and actually let go of Zhennan Bo Mansion in the matter between Qin Yuxue and Qin Chang. She said that as long as they could help find out why Lin Kun was dismissed, everything would be left unrestrained.
Zhennanbo Mansion is the empress dowager's foreign home. Some people work in the palace. It is not easy to find out that this kind of thing is not easy, and they agree happily. But before they even started to investigate, the superiors came up with another order and sent Lin Kun to work as a servant in the Ministry of Revenue.
Since Wen Yu took over Cao Zhijing's position, the position of Minister of the Ministry of Revenue has been empty. Although he is a fifth-rank official position like the Tongzhengsi Senate, the Ministry of Revenue is in charge of finance and is a rare fat.
Old Mrs. Lin and Lin Kun were both stunned. Then they suddenly realized that it was not the emperor who wanted to punish them for a long time, but to reward them!
Yes, after the third prince had an accident, the other third princes were either anxious to make up for it or changed their responsibilities, and were more or less exposed. Only the Marquis of Jian'an Mansion had a firm stand and only for the emperor. Lin Kun's actions were always hidden, and the emperor could not find out. How could he be punished?
The superiors generally hate ministers for forming cliques for personal gain, but these are inevitable. Generally speaking, they don’t turn a blind eye to each other. On the contrary, ministers who are firmly stances like Lin Kun only serve the emperor are very valuable, so how can they not be promoted!
After Mrs. Lin and Lin Kun figured it out, they felt relieved immediately, but because of this, they mentioned the old things about Qin Chang and Qin Yuxue again, thinking that Zhennan Bo Mansion had no help at all and wanted to turn against each other.
As the saying goes, you will not die if you don’t commit suicide. How could you let it go if Zhennan Bo Mansion is fooled like this? Everything is normal and even laughs at Old Lady Lin. But in a blink of an eye, he immediately calculated Lin Kun in the court, saying that he was corrupt and abused the law, which was exactly the same as Cao Zhijing who had just been dealt with. However, the amount of greed was a little less and the crime was a little lighter. He was dismissed and the emperor shook his face in front of the ministers, making him think about his mistakes behind closed doors and lose face.
In fact, such punishment is considered light, but those who have done bad things dare not take it lightly, because they are afraid that the emperor will make big moves. After Mrs. Lin remembered a grudge against Zhennan Bo Mansion, she used her relationships everywhere to turn things around. The first thing she was Lin Zhaoyan.
Lin Zhaoyan is the second prince's fiancée, and the ready-made chess pieces are easy to use and feel at ease.
Old Mrs. Lin called Lin Zhaoyan over, without even a transition, and told her purpose straight to the point - let Lin Zhaoyan find the second prince to help the Hou's Mansion overcome the difficulties.
She spoke so well and had such a high-sounding expression. How did Lin Zhaoyan, who had no intention of having anything to do with the Marquis' Mansion, answer at that time?
Oh, what she said was, "Since my grandmother is going to seek the help of the second prince, wouldn't it be better for you to say it yourself? I am a little girl, and I am a little bit light, so how can I represent the Marquis' Mansion? What I said was wrong at that time, and it would be bad for the second prince to think that we were just using him to overcome this difficulty, rather than sincerely working with him."
Old Mrs. Lin's face turned blue at that time.
Lin Zhaoyan hits her dirty thoughts.
Since it is a third prince party, what's wrong with seeking the help of the second prince? Will the second prince be dragged into the water? What made the emperor think that the second prince was behind the back of the Jian'an Marquis' Mansion, which was actually the second prince who turned to fear him?
Did she really get so stupid that she could come up with such a stupid idea, afraid that if she hadn't refused, the second prince would have killed the Marquis' Mansion if she knew it.
Of course, the reason why Lin Zhaoyan refused was not because he was afraid that the Marquis' Mansion would be killed, but because he did not want to bring the second prince into the water. Anyway, the matter of the Marquis' Mansion would be left to Mo Shuang.
Hasn't she always done a good job? It's not two months since she entered the Marquis' Mansion. The Marquis' Mansion has experienced so many storms. If it's a coincidence, it's a genius who believes it!
Mo Shuang is indeed capable, and everything is done without anyone noticing. She also made Mrs. Lin think it was made by Zhennanbo Mansion, and there was such a big enemy under the tree!
Mo Shuang is even more ruthless in doing things. She can use such a fatal means to the Jian'an Hou Mansion, which is just innocently involved in the game. What's more, is it that she is the initiator?
Lin Zhaoyan could already imagine how Mo Shuang would deal with her in the future, but she was not afraid at all, but instead she was happy to see everything at present.
Seeing that Mrs. Lin was exhausted and unable to take care of herself, she gradually relaxed about the matter of splitting up. I believe that in a short time, Lin Chen and Liu would be able to leave Shengjing, a place of right and wrong.
Lin Zhaoyan leaned his head against the wall of the carriage and gradually walked out of his memories. She counted the days with her fingers, and it was less than a year before the turmoil in Shengjing City in the previous life.
Before that, she wanted to send away all the people she cared about, and then she burned her boat and put it to death before she was born.
She wants to change her destiny.
"Miss. It's already here." Xuan Wen's voice sounded outside the carriage.
Lin Zhaoyan came to his senses and replied: "I understand."
Manhua jumped out of the carriage first, then stretched out his hand, and helped her down steadily, but his ears showed an unnatural bright redness.
Lin Zhaoyan looked at her, then looked at Xuanwen who stood aside and tried hard to pretend to be serious but couldn't control his eyes and smiled maliciously.
Hey. It is true that you find an opportunity to decide the marriage between these two girls!
Lin Zhaoyan tightened his cloak and walked forward calmly, "Manhua followed, Xuan Wen was fine."
Both of them should be so, and then they exchanged a look tacitly and smiled knowingly.
When Lin Zhaoyan walked to the destination, there was already crowd of people watching.
It was obviously a solemn and sad thing, but Lin Zhaoyan heard the gossip of the people in the crowd, and they were all indifferent and even gloating.
Yes, it is not the relatives of any of them who are about to die, and they are also a traitor. What's so sad about?
But why is it so dull that I can't breathe?
The October weather was already cold and the cold wind swept over with sand and dust. Even though she had a hat covering her face, she felt that her skin was being scraped.
The time has come, and the prisoner is taken to the execution platform.
Through the thin veil, Lin Zhaoyan saw a man who was still energetic a few months ago.
He pinched her neck, with a condescending attitude, and declared fiercely that he would ruin her.
result……
He sent himself to the guillotine.
After several months of prison life, he has worn out his pride, but he has forced out his anger. He is not convinced? Even though he is covered in his head and hair, his clothes are ragged, his face is dirty and embarrassed, Lin Zhaoyan knows clearly that once the pineapple restrains his shackles, his anger can razend the entire Shengjing City to the ground, and he will crush her bones and throw her ashes.
So, you must not let him go.
He must die.
Zhou Tingchen, you must die.
Lin Zhaoyan took a deep breath, calmed down the inexplicable emotions that rose from the bottom of his heart, and looked at the beheading platform with a heavy gaze.
He seemed to feel her gaze. Among so many onlookers, he actually looked at her directly over the layers of obstacles.
Lin Zhaoyan's heart skipped a beat and he hurriedly took a step back.
He waved his shackles, saying something in his mouth, and the hatred in his eyes was about to burn her to the end.
Lin Zhaoyan tightened his chest and wanted to escape, but his feet had a root and could not move. Until he heard the order from the prison slaying platform, the token of death was thrown down, and the sunlight at noon shone brightly over his head. Lu Zi raised his sword and fell with his hands, and drops of blood instantly spilled, scarlet, fishy, and a little warmth.
Lin Zhaoyan felt blood red in front of her eyes, and then she saw a pair of unwilling and resentful eyes from the blood red, which were piercing into her eyes like the noon sunshine.
Lin Zhaoyan helped Manhua and started to retching.
Manhua helped her to the carriage to rest and waited for her to calm down.
Lin Zhaoyan waved his hand and said that he was fine and asked Xuan Wen to drive home quickly.
She had to go back, look at her mother, look at her father, look at her loved and the people she loved, and she felt that she was not that scary.
Just now, she killed someone with her own hands.
However, she had no choice.
She really had no choice but to force her, so she would be forgiven.
must.
Lin Zhaoyan leaned against the wall of the car, doing psychological construction for herself over and over again. Until she closed her eyes, she would never see Zhou Tingchen's resentful and terrifying eyes before her death. She felt that her breathing was smooth.
Lin Zhaoyan sat upright and was about to instruct Xuan Wen to turn around and walk towards Lingyun Temple when he heard the sound of pulling horses outside.
The carriage then stopped.
Lin Zhaoyan was surprised and pushed Manhua to ask her down to ask about the situation. At this time, the curtain of the car was lifted, and the second prince who had not seen for a long time rushed in.
