Chapter Seven Assassination

Yang Pei'an got Zhou Yan's correct words, sent the person out with a smile on his face, and said goodbye respectfully, which was even more considerate than serving his own father.

This time I sent the person away, and when I returned to the government office, I saw the Yuzhou Tong magistrate coming over in a hurry, "Have you offended Mr. Zhao, sir?"

"The news from Mr. Li is quite fast. Why didn't you see me present when I was reviewing the case just now?" Yang Peian immediately put away his smile and asked with a raised eyebrow.

He was a new official, but Li Yannian had been working in Yuzhou for five years and knew Yuzhou well. He never reminded himself that Chang'an Hou Shizi was in Yuzhou. If he hadn't had sharp ears and eyes, he might have offended the prince today.

Already.

When Li Yannian heard this, he knew that he was angry, and he quickly apologized, and then said: "My lord, I don't know something. The Zhao family has a very important position in Yuzhou. Today, my lord has offended the Zhao family. If you want to handle the case in the future, you won't tolerate it..."

"So what if I just offended you?" Yang Peian snorted coldly, "No matter how rich the Zhao family is, how can it be as noble as the Crown Prince Chang'an? The one who wants to investigate their Zhao family now is the crown prince, not me!"

"He's actually the crown prince?" Li Yannian's tone suddenly changed. His eyes turned around Yang Pei'an, then he immediately looked back and said with a smile, "It's because the official has closed his eyes and is blind. As long as the adults are not involved, it will be fine. You are Yu after all."

The state knows the state, and I will have to rely on you in the future!"

Yang Pei'an felt very comfortable with this flattery. He smiled proudly, shook his hat and left.

As soon as he left, Li Yannian's face turned cold. He turned around and went to the hall, wrote a handwritten letter to someone and sent it out quickly.

He didn't know how Yang Pei'an persuaded Zhou Yan to agree to this matter, let alone Zhou Yan's character, so he was not sure how to deal with this case.

——Outsiders always say that Chang'an Hou Shizi was born with a smile and a bodhisattva heart, but Li Yannian believed that he was very accurate in judging people. If Zhou Yan had a good heart, I'm afraid no one in the world would have a bad intention.

"Don't ruin the master's plan!" Li Yannian sighed deeply, feeling uneasy in his heart.

At this moment, Zhou Yan, whom he was thinking about, was visiting the Lin family.

Mrs. Zou served the tea with gratitude in her eyes, glanced at Lin Zhengtang who was fidgeting, stretched out her hand, and the couple knelt down.

Lin Xing didn't like to kneel down frequently, but when she saw her mother kneeling down, she followed suit.

Zhao Jie watched from the side, hesitated for a long time, and simply bent his knees and knelt down.

Four muffled sounds were heard in succession. Zhou Yan put the tea down again before he could hold it steady. He smiled with thick eyebrows and asked, "What are you doing?"

Zou was a woman who didn't know what to say, so she raised her eyes and glared at Lin Zhengtang to make him speak.

Lin Zhengtang was being manipulated by his wife, so he could only say: "Thank you very much, Your Majesty, for your foresight today, otherwise our family would have fallen into the hands of that poisonous woman! Your Majesty's kindness and kindness will be unforgettable in the Lin family, and we are willing to work as bulls and horses for Your Majesty...

…”

At first, Lin Zhengtang was reluctant to speak, but as he spoke, his mind became active again, and he glanced at his daughter Lin Xing inadvertently.

The beauty of his daughter, not to mention Yuzhou, few people can compare with her even if she goes to the capital.

The Crown Prince of Chang'an has a good reputation for being clean and self-possessed, so he definitely doesn't have any concubines in his family. In that case, it would be better to give his daughter to the Crown Prince, and maybe get some official positions for himself and Guo'er!

The more Lin Zhengtang thought about it, the more he felt that this plan was feasible, and his words gradually became distorted, "...I am willing to serve as a cow and a horse for the prince, and serve him everywhere!"

It was he and Lin Guoer who acted as cows and horses, and naturally Lin Xing was the one who served him.

Zou was honest and dull and didn't know what Lin Zhengtang meant, but Lin Xing knew what her cheap dad was planning as soon as she heard it.

There is also Zhao Jie, who is already quite old and has been following his father among businessmen since he was a child. He knows how to be obedient and obedient. When he heard that Lin Zhengtang wanted to give his stepmother to Zhou Yan, he was immediately ashamed and angry.

Face flushed.

Therefore, before Lin Xing could speak, Zhao Jie said angrily: "Is it possible that Mr. Lin has a second daughter who can serve the crown prince? You can't let Lin Guoer serve around you, right?"

His unabashed sarcasm made Lin Zhengtang's face turn pale, but he still couldn't admit it, so he simply said: "Master Zhao misunderstood, how could I mean this?"

Consider him wise!

Zhao Jie laughed and said, "It would be better if I didn't. Lin Xing is my stepmother now. She will be with me when she gets old. She will go to the Zhao family's ancestral grave after death. If Mr. Lin can't let her go, he might as well have another daughter."

But at Zou's age, how could she still have a child? She clearly wanted Lin Zhengtang to take a concubine!

Zhou Yan watched the kneeling people coming and going, his eyes were full of interest, and when his eyes turned, he saw Lin Xing looking at Zhao Jie, and he felt funny in his heart.

But what Zhao Jie said was really excessive, especially in front of Zou and Lin Xing. Zhou Yan immediately collected the interest in his eyes, raised his hand and said: "My prince is doing this for old friends and has nothing to do with the Lin family. Everyone, please get up.

"

After getting up, Zhao Jie did not let Lin Xing have time to stay at the Lin family, and suggested: "Since the prince promised to clear my father's name, without further delay, shall we three set off immediately?"

Seeing the warmth in Zhao Jie's eyes, Zhou Yan looked at Lin Xing and saw Lin Xing tilting her head to say something to Zou. After she finished speaking, Zhou Yan said, "Then let's go."

After leaving Lin's house and getting on the carriage, Zhao Jie asked Zhou Yan's doubts: "What did you say to Mrs. Lin just now?"

"In order to prevent your grandma from making things difficult for the Lin family, I will teach my mother some coping methods to prevent her from being wronged." Lin Xing said calmly.

"Who has a grandma like her? She doesn't even recognize me as my grandson. I just think that grandma is dead!" Zhao Jie snorted angrily and turned away to look at Lin Xing.

Zhou Yan, on the other hand, continued to ask with great interest: "How are you going to deal with it?"

"The Zhao family has the best reputation. If the Wei family dares to come to our door, I will ask my mother to spread the news that Zhao Jing is inhumane and see who else dares to marry this castrated dog in the future." Lin Xing's face did not change when she talked about these things.

, which shocked the two men in the carriage.

Zhou Yan felt deeper than Zhao Jie - he had witnessed Lin Xing's methods with his own eyes.

Thinking of Lin Xing whom he saw at Zhao's house that day, Zhou Yan coughed slightly and his understanding of this girl became more three-dimensional.

"Where are we going now?" Lin Xing raised the curtain of the carriage, glanced at the street outside, and asked.

"Go to the Zhao family's ancestral grave and open the coffin for inspection..."

Before Zhou Yan could finish his explanation, the carriage suddenly stopped suddenly, and the people inside hit the wall of the carriage with a loud bang, crying in pain.

"Your Majesty, it's not good! There is an ambush!"

The coachman outside yelled, and drew his sword to fight. The sound of the swords clanging against each other made people's hearts beat like thunder.

Lin Xing had never felt that she was so close to death.

She subconsciously huddled herself in a corner, and when she saw Zhao Jie's pale face from the corner of her eye, she immediately pulled him to the corner to hide.

According to her memory, assassins usually attack from the side when killing people, and hiding around corners is the easiest way to survive.

But she forgot that you can kill not only with knives, but also with arrows.

"call out--"
