CHAPTER IX EMERGENCIES

Because Lin Xing was injured, Zhou Yan only took Zhao Jie with him when he left, leaving two maids behind for Lin Xing to use.

From the maid's mouth, Lin Xing learned that she was not in the other courtyard arranged by Zhou Yan, but in Zhou Yan's own home.

But Lin Xing took a look at the furnishings in the room, and felt that it was no different from the other house arranged by Zhou Yan. No wonder Zhao Jie asked her why she was not curious about where she was, and also suspected that she was interested in Zhou Yan, probably because she was worried that she would bring a bird with her.

Ling Yinxin remarried Zhou Yan.

After all, the Zhao family now relies on the property left by Zhao Yi, and 90% of the property can only be mobilized by Que Ling Seal Xin.

If she remarries an ordinary person, the Zhao family can take the opportunity to take back the bird feather seal letter, but if she marries Zhou Yan, the Zhao family will have no power to resist and can only watch the family property fall away.

However, Lin Xing felt that Zhao Jie was thinking too much.

Not to mention that Zhou Yan had that kind of interest in her, even if Zhou Yan did, she would not be able to marry Zhou Yan.

The Zhao family is a wealthy family, and no one who holds an official position dares to humiliate her, a widowed daughter-in-law, at will. As Zhou Yan, if she really follows him, she will suffer more or less injustice.

What's more, Lin Xingsheng is free, so she doesn't want to be restricted in the backyard.

After thinking wildly, while there was no one in the room, Lin Xing called up the system again, wanting to check the character's biography in the system bar so that she could know what would happen in the future.

However, the character biography is stuck in the section where Lin Xingwei and Zhou Yan were seriously injured, and what follows is an ellipsis.

"Why are there still ellipses? Isn't this my character biography? That's not how the game works!"

Lin Xing was so angry that she shouted at the system.

But the system just replied calmly: "The host has insufficient points and does not have permission to view it yet. Please actively complete the task and obtain points so that you can view and unlock the character biographies."

"Does that mean there will be biographies of other characters?" This news made Lin Xing feel a little better.

If she could see everyone's biographies, wouldn't she be able to know the final outcome?

But she still doesn't understand, "What kind of world is this? A game? A novel? Or a script?"

"It is a parallel world derived from the novel. The system has nothing to do with the world and only helps the host complete its tasks."

Lin Xing couldn't help but be speechless after hearing this.

Between the book, the system, and this tragic fate, no matter how you look at it, she is the heroine.

But how come this heroine’s husband died right after she came on stage, and she also brought a tomboy with her?

Lin Xing looked up to the sky and sighed, as if she wanted to sigh away all the bad luck in her life.

Now she only hopes that good news can come from Zhou Yan and Zhao Jie to comfort her little wounded heart.

But it turns out that when God closes a door for you, he will also close the window.

Before her physical injuries healed, Lin Xing received another piece of bad news——

"Zhao Yi died of an acute illness, this has been confirmed."

After returning from the Zhao family's ancestral grave, Zhou Yan and Zhao Jie were sitting in Lin Xing's house. Zhou Yan said this.

"How is this possible? He was already infected before his death, how could it be an emergency?" Lin Xing still asked.

Zhou Yan explained: "They did an autopsy and said that Brother Zhao had a serious heart disease before his death. He died of an emergency due to a heart attack caused by taking too much medicine."

But Lin Xing didn't believe this result, "Can Wu Zuo be trusted?"

"He is the most experienced operator in Yuzhou City, and he is accompanied by officers and soldiers from the state government. He must not dare to cheat." Zhou Yan muttered, "If you don't believe it, in five days, the operator from the capital will arrive in Yuzhou.

You can also let him conduct an autopsy."

Zhao Jie looked ugly when he heard this.

Seeing his father being autopsied had already made him uncomfortable. Now he had to do another autopsy. No matter how determined Zhao Jie was, he was only a half-grown child and would be dissatisfied after all.

But he also knew that Zhou Yan wrote a letter asking the widower from the capital to come to Yuzhou all the way for his father's sake, so he couldn't be angry.

But fortunately, Lin Xing saw Zhao Jie's embarrassment, and she couldn't wait any longer, so she said: "There is no need for another autopsy, let him rest in peace. Since he is suffering from an emergency, the problem must be on weekdays."

Have you ever gone to Zhao’s house to check the medicine you drank?”

"Zhang Ping has led people to search Zhao's house. Zhao Jie and I will go there soon." After Zhou Yan explained, he looked at Lin Xing, who was pale, and warned, "You have a good rest. If there is any news, I will

I told you."

But after he finished speaking, Zhao Jie suddenly complained: "After all, she is a woman. If she gets hurt, it will be trouble. If a man can go to the ground right now."

Although Zhao Jie is stupid, he is not a person who talks without thinking. Lin Xing knew as soon as she heard that he did not want to stay in Zhou Yan's Crown Prince's Mansion.

Coincidentally, Lin Xing had no intention of staying in the Prince's Mansion, so she took advantage of the situation and proposed to go back to another courtyard. Zhou Yan arranged the carriage and horses, sent the person back immediately, and made an agreement with Zhao Jie to meet at Zhao's house in an hour.

After sending the person away, Zhou Yan was swinging the folding fan with one hand, thoughtfully, when suddenly he heard someone speaking behind him.

"Your Majesty, I intercepted a letter at the Yuzhou government office."

Zhou Yan turned around and saw the secret guard holding a letter and bringing it to him. He took it casually and asked casually: "Why don't I remember seeing you before?"

"This is my first time doing something in my humble position." The secret guard lowered his head even further.

But the next moment when Zhou Yan opened the letter, he suddenly raised his hand to pat the letter. Unexpectedly, Zhou Yan pushed the letter into his face with his backhand.

In an instant, a burst of white smoke rose from the secret guard's face, and accompanied by the secret guard's shrill scream, he fell to the ground, covering his face with his hands, and blood flowed from his fingers.

When the screams stopped, only the upper half of the secret guard's face was left. The lower half of his face was corroded by the white smoke and was so bloody that he could not recognize the human face.

"Idiot, you dare to assassinate my prince with such tricks? Humph! Dispose of the body and find out how he came to the prince's house." After Zhou Yan ordered, he lightly threw the letter full of words on the corpse.

, he lowered his eyes for a moment, raised his legs and left.

Immediately after he left, someone took the body down to dispose of it. There was no sign that anyone had died under the eaves.



In another courtyard.

Lin Xing glanced at the gloomy Zhao Jie and asked, "Have you ever seen your father's body with your own eyes?"

Zhao Jie suddenly raised his head, "What do you mean? You...you actually doubt the prince?"

"Should I trust him?"

Lin Xing asked without any sarcasm, and her face was full of confusion.

Zhao Jie didn't know how to answer.

After their father passed away, they were like duckweeds. Zhou Yan helped them. But they had no way of knowing what Zhou Yan wanted.

Is Chang'an Hou Shizi really motivated by the word loyalty?

"I've seen it." Zhao Jie struggled to speak, his lips turning pale, "It seems...it's no different from usual."

It was difficult to say this, and I didn’t have much confidence.

Lin Xing patted his shoulder and whispered: "He will be pleased."

"It's my fault that I couldn't save dad!" Zhao Jie closed his eyes and burst into tears.

He watched his father being dissected, but he couldn't do anything!
