The shadows of the trees swayed, and in the silence, there was a terrifying killing intent. Before he could react, a sudden change occurred. A dense rain of arrows shot out from the forest, carrying a faint cold glint and a strong force. In the blink of an eye, they arrived in front of him.
Lin Wanrong's body jumped, and he rolled on the ground a few times, barely dodging the rain of arrows. The war horse he was riding was unable to dodge, and with a long neigh, thousands of arrows pierced through it. In the blink of an eye, it fell to the ground, black blood flowing out.
Lin Wanrong was just about to move when he saw dozens of black figures rushing out from both sides of the forest. Their movements were swift, and the steel blades in their hands flashed with a frightening white light. With a biting cold sound, they all stabbed towards him. These assassins were dressed in black, and their movements were swift. Their attacks were fierce, and the positions of their attacks were perfect. They attacked from all sides, leaving him with nowhere to hide.
Damn it, I'll let you have a taste of the power of the Bee Sting. While he was busy, Lin Wanrong had already opened the Bee Sting. Just as he was about to press the mechanism, the situation suddenly changed again. A long and clear whistle came from the forest, and dozens of figures leapt out. Their movements were even more vigorous, and without a word, they were already in front of Lin Wanrong in a few leaps. The long swords in their hands flashed, and with a cacophony of clanging sounds, they blocked the attacking black-clothed men, and the two sides began to fight.
What was going on? Lin Wanrong was puzzled, but he did not dare to act rashly. His finger pressed on the Bee Sting, and if there was any movement, he would attack. The two sides fought fiercely, and the ones who came later were all dressed in black. They were not masked, but their attacks were ruthless and experienced. They blocked the black-clothed assassin in front of Lin Wanrong, and steadily gained the upper hand. From time to time, the black-clothed men would scream and groan, and it was obvious that they had suffered losses.
These assassins were also very fierce, and even after being stabbed several times, they did not fear death. Their attacks were all without any regard for their lives, and they fought with the black-clothed men. The situation was at a stalemate.
Another long whistle came from the forest, and it was followed by a man's clear voice, "Brothers, quickly get rid of this group of bastards, and protect Sir Lin."
"Yes, sir." As soon as the man finished speaking, dozens of capable figures rushed out from the forest. They were dressed in green, and the long swords and podaos in their hands were as fast as lightning. Like swimming dragons, they swam in the field, and in an instant, several assassins in black were killed.
The voice sounded familiar. Lin Wanrong turned to look at the source of the voice. A green-robed man rushed forward like a flood dragon, and in the blink of an eye, several people died under his sword.
"Gao Qiu, Big Brother Gao!!" Lin Wanrong was overjoyed as he stood up and waved his hand.
"My Lord, watch out …" Along with Gao Qiu's clear shout, an unexpected event occurred. Two figures suddenly soared out from within the formation of assassins that were retreating in defeat, and their figures were peerlessly swift like bolts of lightning as they pierced straight towards him.
With Gao Qiu's help, Lin Wanrong's confidence multiplied. Just as he was about to fire the short gun in his hand, he saw that the assassin in the air, for some reason, seemed to have his acupoints sealed. His momentum dissipated, and he fell to the ground with two thuds. Gao Qiu hurriedly leaped a few steps in front of him to protect him. His forehead was dripping with cold sweat as he panted, "That was close, that was close. Brothers, quickly take care of this group of bastards."
The two assassins who launched the sneak attack were the bandit leaders. With the two of them gone, the formation of the assassins in black fell into chaos, but they were even more unafraid of death. They raised their swords and attacked their opponents in a frenzy. They were completely exposed, without any regard for their own lives.
These were all well-trained death warriors. Gao Qiu was overwhelmed with shock. With a cold snort, he waved his hand, and the others no longer held back. They raised their swords and chopped the assassins in half at the waist.
Lin Wanrong hurriedly pulled his sleeve and said, "Big Brother Gao, leave two alive."
Gao Qiu shook his head, his expression solemn, "Brother Lin may not know this, but these are death warriors raised by the mastermind. Before they came out to assassinate you, they had already taken drugs that made them lose their minds and stimulated their minds. That's why their combat strength is strong and they don't fear death, but their minds are like idiots. It's useless to leave them alive."
Lin Wanrong had seen these death warriors before. Hearing this, he said unwillingly, "Could it be that there's not a single clear-headed person in this group? Then how would they know if they killed the wrong person?! There must be one or two clear-headed ones! "
Gao Qiu nodded and said with a smile, "Brother Lin is indeed smart, your guess is correct. When these death warriors carry out assassination tactics, there must be one or two clear-headed leaders commanding them. Otherwise, even if they kill the wrong person, they won't know. "
Lin Wanrong glanced at the two men who had tried to assassinate him lying on the ground. Realization dawned on him. He gave a thumbs up and praised, "Big Brother Gao is really experienced and knowledgeable. I'm impressed. It's all thanks to you today. Otherwise, I'm afraid my life would be gone. "
Gao Qiu shook his head and said with a smile, "Rest assured, Brother Lin. With us brothers protecting you, we won't let anyone harm even a strand of your hair. To tell you the truth, ever since you came back from Shandong, we have received His Majesty's orders to protect you in secret. These brothers are His Majesty's personal bodyguards, so there's no need to mention their skills. "
Lin Wanrong was pleasantly surprised. "Why didn't you say so earlier? Damn it, if I had known earlier that Big Brother Gao was by my side, I wouldn't have been afraid. We brothers fought from Hangzhou and Jinling all the way to the capital. When have we ever been afraid? "
Hearing this, Gao Qiu roared in laughter; immediately he remembered the tricks Wei Xiaobao used on the way back from Hangzhou to give people a hard time. Seeing Wei Xiaobao's elegant demeanor was still the same, Gao Qiu was full of admiration in his heart, "It's not that I don't want to tell you, but I received His Majesty's imperial decree to follow you in secret, I don't dare to disobey the imperial decree. As soon as you came out today, I sensed that something was amiss, so I made some preparations in advance. Brother must have been frightened. "
With the danger gone, Lin Wanrong immediately became energetic. He laughed coquettishly and said, "Big Brother Gao is wrong. Brother, I am a man. I only know how to show off, not how to be frightened. Right, who are these assassins? Why do they want to kill me? "
Gao Qiu shook his head with a serious expression. "I don't know either. In the next few days, Old General Li Tai's army is about to set off. The situation in the capital is very strange. Ever since you came down from the mountain, there have been many unfamiliar faces outside the mansion and in the front and back of the Xiao Family's shop. Day and night, they are guarding the surroundings. Presumably, their target is you. I have secretly sent more people to protect you. Especially around your surroundings, there are always people there. However, Brother Lin, you must not be careless. To be able to train such capable death warriors, your opponent's strength cannot be underestimated. "
"Why should I be afraid of him?" Lin Wanrong smiled slightly. "Big Brother Gao, you are His Majesty's personal bodyguards. No matter how great that enemy's background is, could it be greater than Your Majesty's? "
Gao Qiu smiled and nodded. He admired Lin San's calmness in the face of chaos. Lin Wanrong took out a stack of banknotes from his pocket and stuffed them into Gao Qiu's hands without even looking at them. "Brother Gao, take this. Use it to buy tea for your brothers."
The first banknote was worth five hundred taels of silver. There were probably four to five thousand taels of silver in it. Gao Qiu was shocked and hurriedly pushed the banknote back. "Brother, what are you doing? Are you looking down on me, Gao Qiu? I work for the royal family, and my life is sold to the imperial court. Even if you were an ordinary person, I wouldn't accept money from you, let alone the fact that we've fought together on the battlefield. "
When they were suppressing the bandits in Shandong, Gao Qiu had always been by Lin Wanrong's side, it would not be an exaggeration to say that their friendship had gone through life and death together. Lin Wanrong laughed and said, "Brother Gao, you misunderstand. Based on our friendship, why would I give you money? If you are short of money. Just come to my house and get it. These banknotes are not for you, but for your brothers. These days, they've been protecting my family, guarding day and night, doing their best. It's not wrong to say that they're under the Emperor's orders, but it's also true that I, Lin, am indebted to them. My brothers all make a living on the edge of a knife. Everyone has a family to feed, and it's not easy to live. If I, Lin, don't repay this kindness, not only will I make things difficult for you, Brother Gao, I will also feel guilty. Use these banknotes to buy tea for your brothers. There will be more in a few days. I only ask Brother Gao to tell your brothers. My family, the Xiao Family, I'll leave it to them. "
What kind of person was Lin Wanrong? He deeply understood the principle that a county official was not as good as a person in charge. No matter how good the Emperor was, the person in charge was still these guards. The Lin Mansion's Xiao Family had so many beautiful wives. If any one of them was harmed, wouldn't he be heartbroken? Spending some money to make people work for him was too damn worth it!
Gao Qiu was also a clever person. After hearing a few words, he knew what he was thinking, so he didn't decline. He kept the banknotes and gave a thumbs up, praising, "Brother, I admire you. No wonder you can make everyone work for you when you're leading the army! Don't worry, leave this matter to me. I'll definitely do it properly and let everyone know your loyalty. "
"Brother is too polite, too polite." Lin Wanrong laughed evilly. His gaze fell on the two unconscious assassins on the ground, "Brother Gao, can you wake them up?"
Gao Qiu responded and walked in front of the two to size them up. He patted their bodies a few times, but the two were still in a deep sleep and didn't wake up. Gao Qiu looked troubled and coughed a few times awkwardly.
Lin Wanrong asked curiously, "Brother Gao, what's wrong? Are they dead? "
Gao Qiu's face turned red, "They're not dead, but I can't take out the hidden weapons on them. Brother Lin, wait a moment. I'll get someone to bring some cold water to try. "
Can't take out the hidden weapons? That's strange. Weren't you the one who shot the hidden weapons to save me? Why did you make a mistake? Seeing Gao Qiu's ashamed expression, Lin Wanrong didn't want to expose his scars. He just smiled and skipped over the matter.
The black veils on the two assassins' faces had already been removed. Lin Wanrong slowly walked in front of the two assassins. He saw that the two assassins were strong men in their thirties. One was thin while the other was slightly plump. They had a gloomy expression and a fierce expression. They each held a steel needle in their hands. The needle glowed with blue light and was clearly dipped in poison.
Thinking back to the scene at that time, Lin Wanrong broke out in a cold sweat. If Gao Qiu hadn't acted in time, I would've been f * cking stabbed by the needle. I'm afraid I would've really been done for.
He hurriedly retreated two steps. Gao Qiu took out the steel needle and shot it into a leaf beside him. There was a hissing sound and the newly grown green leaf was covered in black smoke. In a split second, it turned into a thick cloud of smoke and disappeared.
"Is this called Corpse Dissolving Water?" Lin Wanrong shivered and asked while gritting his teeth.
Gao Qiu nodded solemnly: "It's called Corpse Dissolving Powder and also Bone Dissolving Powder. It's made from the most poisonous creatures in the world. Seven-step Snake, Venomous Scorpion, Flying Centipede and Pure Royal Water. It's not easy to obtain. It seems that this group of assassins doesn't have a lot of it. Otherwise, they would've used it long ago and we brothers would've suffered a great loss. "
"Damn it," Lin Wanrong gritted his teeth and kicked the unconscious assassin: "Later, I'll let you taste the taste of Bone Dissolving Powder."
A guard had already brought a bucket of water. Gao Qiu didn't stand on ceremony. He picked up the bucket and splashed it on the face and body of the slightly plump assassin. It was a chilly spring and the ground was icy cold. When the assassin was stimulated by the cold water, he unconsciously shivered and his body trembled. He slowly opened his eyes. Before he could see the situation in front of him clearly, he saw a flash of white light. A cold light flashed in front of his eyes. A sharp dagger was pressed against his eyes and cut off a few of his eyelashes.
Even though he was a fugitive who didn't fear death, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. He anxiously gritted his teeth and didn't make a sound. He didn't have any strength left in his body. He secretly looked through the gap of the dagger. He saw a cold face that was neither black nor white in front of him. A trace of cruelty flashed in his eyes. The person was holding a sharp dagger and was slowly rubbing it against his eyes. The cold feeling made his body shiver.
"Crash!" Lin Wanrong thrust her sword out horizontally. The assassin's eyelashes were cut in half. The assassin stared blankly and didn't dare to move.
"Good sword!" Lin Wanrong sighed. He slowly got up and said: "Brother Gao, cut off this bastard's tongue."
"Sir, don't you want to ask?" It wasn't the first time that Gao Qiu and Lin Wanrong worked together. He didn't need to be instructed to ask.
"It's useless to ask these bullsh * t death warriors. What's there to ask?" Lin Wanrong smiled sinisterly. "Whoever did it is who did it. Do you think I don't know? Your Highness seems to be quite relaxed recently. You still remember me … "
The assassin's expression didn't change. However, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes. Lin Wanrong said indifferently: "It's useless to keep this dog's tongue. Cut it off. Tell him to go back and speak sign language with his master."
"Understood!" Gao Qiu pinched open the assassin's jaws. He stretched out his dagger and was about to stir his mouth.
The assassin's eyes were anxious. He wriggled. Gao Qiu hesitated for a while and said: "Sir, he seems to have something to say."
"Don't say it!" Lin Wanrong shouted angrily. "I won't listen even if he says it. Gao Qiu, you've wasted time. Your punishment is to cut off his top and his bottom. "
Gao Qiu responded. He ordered people to press the assassin to the ground with his back facing the sky and spread his legs wide open. He held the dagger with both hands and laughed. With a shua sound, he stabbed down.
"Ah …" The assassin cried out miserably. He let out a mournful shout. "His Highness won't let you go. He will definitely take revenge for me …"
After screaming for a while, he didn't feel any pain in his lower body. He raised his head and saw the leader of the guards standing next to Official Lin. The two of them were rubbing their chins and smiling sinisterly. Their faces were filled with pride!
"Brother Lin, I've learned a lot from following you." Gao Qiu spoke from the bottom of his heart. When it came to psychological warfare, no one in the world could compare to Lin San.
"Not at all, not at all." Lin Wanrong smiled evilly. "I've learned a lot from Brother Gao. For example, that sword of yours just now. Not too much, not too little. It just brushed past the edge. It was even more precise than a circumcision. I'm really impressed."
Hearing the two of them blow their own trumpet without batting an eyelid, the assassin finally realized that he had been tricked. However, that shout just now had already exposed everything. It was too late for him to repent. His expression immediately turned gloomy, and he lowered his head in silence.
"This time I really don't need it. Motherf * cker, do you think someone like you deserves to be a death warrior? " Lin Wanrong kicked the assassin's body. His face was filled with disdain as he waved his hand. "Cut off all the parts of his body that can be cut! At the same time, let the new brothers practice. Choose a blunt knife. If one knife doesn't work, then two. If two doesn't work, then three. It's rare to have a live body to experiment on … "
The assassin originally wasn't afraid of death. However, Lin Wanrong's little trick made him say things that he shouldn't have said. Once his bottom line was broken, he had nothing else to rely on. He anxiously shouted, "You dare? I won't forgive you even if I become a ghost! "
"Won't forgive me?" Lin Wanrong laughed out loud. "Coming from your mouth, what a joke. You don't know how many people you've killed for your Highness and how many times you've heard these words. Brother, just admit it. Do it … "
As soon as Lin Wanrong shouted, four or five Imperial Bodyguards rushed forward. The assassin's expression changed, but before he could say anything, he felt a sharp pain in his leg. One of the impatient Imperial Bodyguards had stabbed him in the leg. "Ah …" He screamed. Only then did he realize that the other party wasn't joking. Looking at the blood flowing out from his leg, he felt like he was going to collapse.
Lin Wanrong waved his hand and stopped everyone. He said calmly, "Tell me, what's your name? Oh, if you don't say it, I won't mind. My brothers are more than happy to hear it. "
"Zheng Qiulei!" The assassin didn't have the strength to resist and replied weakly.
Lin Wanrong grunted. He didn't even raise his eyebrows. "How long have you followed His Highness?"
"Twenty-one years!"
"Twenty-one years?" Lin Wanrong nodded. "It's not a short time. No wonder His Highness trusts you so much and gave you such a great mission. You're actually willing to betray His Highness? Don't deny it. So many of my brothers heard it with their own ears. Ai, I wonder how sad His Highness will be when he hears this news! "
Lin Wanrong kept shaking his head. His expression was one of pity for His Highness. Gao Qiu was laughing inwardly on the side. Lin daren was very experienced in doing things like this. First, he would take out a large pot of sh * t. If the yellow mud fell into his pants, it would be useless no matter what he said.
Didn't I f * cking fall for your trick? Zheng Qiulei wanted to curse several times, but seeing the faint smile in his eyes, he could only endure it.
"Old Brother Zheng, how many concubines does His Highness have?" Lin Wanrong changed the topic and asked with a smile.
Zheng Qiulei was stunned. This shouldn't be a secret, right? "His Highness has one official concubine, ten concubines, and around twenty concubines."
"What a waste." Lin Wanrong swallowed his saliva and smiled at Gao Qiu. "Big Brother Gao, how many imperial concubines does the emperor have?"
Gao Qiu sternly said, "The emperor is wise and brave, and loves the people. Ever since he entered the palace, including the empress, he hasn't had more than ten imperial concubines."
"He really does love the people like his own children, but our His Highness loves beauties like his own children." Lin Wanrong gave a thumbs up and then smiled darkly at the assassin, "There's one more thing. I heard that in His Highness's house, there is a hidden dragon trapped in the water and a golden dragon that can fly into the sky at any moment, is that right? It doesn't matter if you admit it or not. I went to His Highness's house and personally saw it. "
Damn, you've said it all. What use is there for me to answer? That Zheng Qiulei felt wronged and could only nod.
"That, Brother Clerk, do you know what to write down?!" Lin Wanrong laughed darkly, "Old Brother Zheng, let's talk about something serious. Why does His Highness want to kill me?"
Zheng Qiulei gritted his teeth, "I don't know either. It's probably because you provoked His Highness."
Lin Wanrong smiled coldly. "Since things have come to this, what else do you have to hide, Brother Zheng? You are the person who understands His Highness the most. Think about it, based on what you just said, if it were to spread out, would His Highness spare you? Don't say I didn't remind you. When I first came to Jing, His Highness sent a mysterious woman to assassinate me. When I returned from Shandong to protect the silver, I was ambushed by Wokou pirates — — hee hee, do you remember all of this? "
Lin Official was determined to pull Cheng Wang off his horse. What he needed was a confession. Zheng Qiulei sighed sorrowfully. Other than admitting defeat, there was nothing else he could do.
Lin Official guided him patiently. Under his friendly "hints", from Cheng Wang assassinating the previous Emperor many years ago, slaughtering his brothers, going against the heavens, to colluding with the White Lotus, secretly raising troops, plotting rebellion, to colluding with foreign nations, conspiring with Wokou pirates, assassinating important officials of the court, all these accusations were put down. Combined with the "facts" that Lin Official spoke of, this Cheng Wang was a thief that defied the heavens.
The cases that Brother Lin is handling are all earth-shattering. If it isn't handled properly, my Da Hua Empire will fall into chaos. Gao Qiu didn't even dare to breathe loudly when he heard this. He hurriedly pulled him back and cautiously said, "Brother Lin, even if you ask about this case, will the emperor believe you? Can he believe it? This isn't a small matter. Be careful that you don't get to eat the lamb, and instead get embarrassed. "
"Thank you, big brother, for the reminder," Lin Wanrong snickered, "Whether he believes it or not, that's the Emperor's business. He knows. But there's one thing that I need big brother's help with. "
He whispered a few words by Gao Qiu's ear. Gao Qiu's face was pale, his entire body trembling: "Brother Lin, you want me to spread this rumor about Cheng Wang?"
"It's not a rumor, maybe it's true. You saw the matter of the assassin with your own eyes," Lin Wanrong's expression hardened, "Now that it's come to this, it's either he dies or I live. Find some honest and reliable people, it's best to put up some posters, find some people in the teahouses to talk about it. I'm sure there will be people interested in this kind of topic. Without anyone knowing, let the people of Jing know of Cheng Wang's evil deeds, and he won't have anywhere to hide. Don't worry about the Emperor. Without his approval, would I dare to do this? If he wants you to protect me, then who is he guarding against? "
Gao Qiu was speechless. He understood Lin San's meaning. This was forcing Cheng Wang to act. "Will this really work?" He carefully asked.
"There's nothing that won't work." A sharp light flashed through Lin Wanrong's eyes: "I am the husband of the Princess of Chu Yun. Cheng Wang chose to act against me tonight. If my guess isn't wrong, the Emperor must have made a move against him, and he won't be able to sit still. Since that's the case, we might as well play big. Before the main army heads north, we will pull out this nail, and let the soldiers have nothing to worry about. Only then can we fight to the death with the Tu Jue. To put it more selfishly, if I don't get rid of him, my property and wife will remain in Jing. My heart won't be at peace. "
Lin Wanrong heavily patted his shoulder, his eyes full of determination. Thinking that Brother Lin was the Emperor's son-in-law, that the entire world knew of the Emperor's high regard for him, Gao Qiu gritted his teeth: "Fine. Then it's decided. I'll also fight with this Cheng Wang. "
After a private discussion with Gao Qiu, there was no need to question the assassin, Zheng Qiulei. They just needed to take his statement.
"Give him a handprint." Lin Wanrong laughed: "Gao da ge, first recite this statement for Zheng lao xiong to hear. We are all acting according to the rules, we won't use torture to extort a confession. My brothers have to testify for me!"
Gao Qiu eloquently recited the statement. This lowly Zheng Qiulei has been blessed by the Emperor since childhood and is grateful to him. But he was forced by Cheng Wang to use the lives of his family to force me to assassinate the most loyal and capable official of China — — Lin San, Official Lin … …
Seeing Leader Gao stare covetously at his thumb, as though he was going to cut it off to make a handprint, he was really unlucky to have met this pair of capable people. Zheng Qiulei helplessly pressed his handprint, his face ashen.
Looking at the remaining unconscious assassin, Lin Wanrong snorted: "The remaining one will be personally interrogated by the Emperor. Gao da ge, find a few reliable brothers and send the statement and these two people to the palace overnight. Then spread the news overnight that the Emperor is interrogating the assassins. One of them has already confessed. His name is Zheng Qiulei and he has served his master for twenty-one years — — "
This move was really vicious. Gao Qiu secretly sighed and nodded his head. He called a group of guards to shove the two people into the carriage and send them to the palace overnight.
Lin Wanrong crouched in front of his dead battle horse and silently sighed. Gao Qiu had also been on the battlefield and knew the relationship between man and horse. He stood beside him without saying a word.
Lin Wanrong stood up and gazed into the distance. The moonlight was like water and the night was desolate. Miss Xu's carriage had traveled a long time ago. Thinking about the teasing just now, his heart was filled with emotion. This time, she was probably even more angry.
After entering the city with Gao Qiu, it was already late at night and there were not many people on the street. Lin Wanrong had something on his mind, so he galloped on the horse. When he reached the corner, he saw a small sedan slowly moving in front of him. He didn't care and was about to jump over it when the curtain of the small sedan was lifted. A woman looked at him with tears in her eyes: "Lin San — —"
"Stop — —" Lin Wanrong shouted and pulled the reins. He couldn't believe his ears. Who is calling me?
"Lin San — —" The woman saw him in a daze and her heart was both happy and sad. She called out softly and tears rolled down her cheeks.
Lin Wanrong tilted her head and saw Xiao Yuruo's sad and beautiful face. Her cheeks were flushed and two streams of tears slowly flowed down her cheeks. In the bleak night wind, there was an indescribable feeling of pitifulness.
"Grand Mistress, you, you're back?!" Lin Wanrong was overjoyed. He jumped off the horse and rushed to the sedan to hold her little hand. After a few days, Grand Mistress had become a lot more haggard, but her proud temperament hadn't changed at all. Lin Wanrong's heart was suddenly filled with emotion as she looked into Ji Yunshu's eyes and her tearful cheeks. She couldn't speak a single word as she thought back to the time they had spent together.
Xiao Yuruo's tears fell like rain, but she smiled and said: "You fool, why are you so stupid? It's rare to see you being so honest. Don't you usually smear honey on your mouth? "
Lin Wanrong wiped the corner of his eyes and said with a smile: "Grand Mistress isn't home and I haven't eaten honey for a few days. Grand Mistress, where did you come back from? "
"I don't know." Xiao Yuruo quietly said: "That day when the Emperor came to announce the imperial edict, I was taken away by the palace maids and lived in a garden in the palace. Every day there were maids from the Weaving Department who came to discuss matters with me, talking about cloth and silk, but they never told me to leave. "
Lin Wanrong gritted his teeth and said with hatred: "That imperial edict was deliberately arranged by the Emperor to make things difficult for you. Grand Mistress, you must not believe it. Think about it, am I that kind of person? "
"Do you think I don't know your temperament?" Grand Mistress shook her head and smiled bitterly, her face blushed: "If you were that kind of dedicated person, it would be better. It would make us, the women of the world, suffer less from lovesickness. But you just happen to be overflowing with love. If you were told to abandon a woman, even if you were beaten to death you wouldn't do it. "
Xiao Yuruo's words were exactly what he was thinking. He did not feel ashamed, but instead felt happy, "That's right, that's right, I am such a person. Eldest Miss really understands me."
His laughing and joking appearance was still the same as before, not the slightest change. Thinking back to the first time they met in Jinling, when he and Guo Biaoge came back from fooling around and she wanted to slap his mouth, he had this kind of expression, not afraid of anything.
Grand Mistress's heart was moved and she smiled with tears in her eyes. She brushed off the dust on his body and softly said: "Where did you go to fool around again? Your body looks like you were rolling in the mud. I punish you to get up early tomorrow and wash these clothes. If you don't, I will deduct your salary. "
Hearing the young miss speak to her in the same tone as before, Lin Wanrong's bones immediately felt as light as a feather. Her entire body felt extremely comfortable, and she beamed with joy. "Young miss, there's a question I've always wanted to ask you!"
Xiao Yuruo softly said: "What is it? Tell me!"
"Do you still remember the bet we made in Jinling about washing clothes?" Lin Wanrong smiled: "I have always wanted to know, who washed my clothes that time?"
"I didn't wash them." Xiao Yuruo's face was hot and she hurriedly lowered her head.
"Oh." Lin Wanrong faintly sighed and his face was full of disappointment. With a face full of disappointment, he said, "No wonder the bath was so —"
"How's the bath?" The Eldest Young Miss raised her head, her expression anxious.
"You didn't wash it clean enough." Lin Wanrong giggled. Before he finished speaking, Grand Mistress's little fist attacked him like the wind: "What nonsense are you talking about? Why wasn't it clean? I washed it five times! "
Lin Wanrong laughed and grabbed her little hand. He turned around and pulled her out of the small sedan chair. Grand Mistress was embarrassed and anxious, so she used her little foot to continuously kick him. Her face was red and her ears were hot. She was panting and her body seemed to have lost all strength. The two of them seemed to have returned to the time when they were angry at each other in Jinling. Their hearts were sour and sweet, incomparably warm.
"What is this?" Lin Wanrong's eyes were sharp. On the Grand Mistress's raised ankle, a bright red color attracted his eyes.
"Nothing!" Grand Mistress blushed and hurriedly jumped into the small sedan chair. Just as she was about to order the sedan chair bearers to move, she saw that Lin San also squeezed in and sat next to her.
"You, what do you want to do? Don't mess around! "Xiao Yuruo's heart was beating fast. Her chest rose and fell rapidly, and even her voice was a bit shaky.
Lin Wanrong smiled and lifted her ankle in his hand. That loose dress revealed delicate jade-like skin, without the slightest blemish. It was smooth and smooth, as if he was touching a piece of fine jade. A wisp of bright red rope was tightly coiled around her crystalline ankle, and the end of the broken rope had been woven into a pair of exquisite butterflies. They spread their wings and seemed to intend to fly, and they had a moving appearance.
Lin Wanrong's heart was filled with excitement. The scene of the wrong red string on the boat on the West Lake came back to his mind. Xian 'er's sword cut the red string and the Grand Mistress's heart was broken. Those scenes were engraved in his heart and could not be erased for the rest of his life.
Lin Wanrong couldn't help but caress her smooth ankle. He gently said: "This red string, are you going to keep tying it?"
"I'm not." The Eldest Miss blushed and turned her head away stubbornly. "I tied it up myself. I didn't tie it up by mistake."
"Was it really the wrong time?" Lin Wanrong smiled and slowly untied the loose end of the string. "Then let's do it again. Let's see if it's the same this time!"
One end of the red string was firmly tied to Grand Mistress's sparkling ankle. The other end was picked up by Lin Wanrong. He smiled and waved it in front of Xiao Yuruo: "Grand Mistress, look carefully. This time, I don't know if I tied it correctly or wrongly —"
He bent down and was about to tie the string around her ankle. Grand Mistress blushed and softly said: "Wrong, wrong!"
Wrong? Lin Wanrong was stunned!
Seeing him in a daze, the Eldest Young Miss giggled. She poked his forehead with her small white finger, "How did you become a fool?" She lowered her head and didn't dare to look at him. Her voice was gentle: "I'm a woman, so it should be tied to my right foot. You're a man, so naturally, it should be tied to your left foot — stupid!"
Lin Wanrong suddenly realized. That's right, how could I be so stupid? I haven't been picking up girls for a few days, so I'm rusty.
"Thank you Grand Mistress for your advice." Lin Wanrong smiled and firmly tied the red string to his ankle. The two of them were tightly squeezed together. The tightly tied red string pulled them together, making it difficult to separate.
"Lin San —" Grand Mistress's heart trembled. Her face was red. She slowly leaned on his shoulder with tears and a smile on her face.
Lin Wanrong proudly sighed: "Hehe, this time it's tied very tightly. Let's see who else can cut it —" Before he finished his words, a silver light with a whistling sound swept toward their ankles.
