"Ximen Jingyu can't die." Lin Xiner was sitting in Wangyue Tower, the stronghold of Shuiyue Palace in the capital, sipping tea leisurely.
It has been three days since she returned to Wangyue Tower. It was supposed to be the day for her to return home, but she made an incident and broke all the rules.
News came back from the city that Ximen Jingxuan reported to the emperor about Xiaoyao Hou, requesting that Ximen Jingyu be executed according to the remnant of the traitor eight years ago. In view of the fact that Ximen Jingyu has been peacefully serving as his Xiaoyao Hou who does not care about worldly affairs for eight years.
, Ximen Jinglie was extremely hesitant because of the brotherhood, but he couldn't bear Ximen Jingxuan's strong demands. Moreover, the danger he encountered eight years ago was still vivid in his mind, and there were also the family members of the other two brothers who had been executed long ago.
After watching, he finally issued the imperial edict of execution and gave Ximen Jingyu one foot of white silk.
The family members of the Hou family who were living on the streets did not have a new residence, so they still stayed in the tavern. When they heard the news that the Hou was about to die, they cried and fought, which was so desolate. Even the poor people sympathized with this royal bloodline.
Thinking about the mighty King Xuan compared with the Xiaoyao Hou who fell into despair in a blink of an eye, it was like heaven and earth.
"Master, why don't you intercede on behalf of the Marquis? You are the only one in the whole court who dares to argue with Prince Xuan. If you don't come forward, no one will dare to speak for the Marquis." Liu Suixiang saw Ximen Hai leave in disappointment again and again.
No matter how mean he is by nature, he still has some sympathy.
"The Ximen Jingyu incident involves the pain of Prince Xuan, and it is also a private matter of their own struggle for power in the royal family. As a grand master of a country who protects the Qingyuan Dynasty, I only want to protect the stability of the country.
, not suitable to interfere." Lin Bo sat on the Taishi chair, closed his eyes and stroked his beard, "I am worried about Xin'er now. I don't know what role she played in all the things, and whether there will be any consequences from her.
Prince Xuan found a breakthrough against me?"
"That girl is indeed unlucky. As soon as she married into the royal family, something like this happened in the royal family!" Liu Suixiang instantly changed the topic to Lin Xiner, "There has been no news for three days, and I don't know if she is dead.
It’s alive.”
"Ximen Jingyu, it's hard for me to come to the rescue, but if something unexpected happens to Xiner, I can try to embarrass Prince Xuan, destroy his prestige, and vent his anger on the Hou family." Lin Bo suddenly opened his eyes.
Eyes, "Xin'er can finally take the name of Princess Xuan, which means she has lived her life well."
"That's true, no matter what, we are also the father-in-law and mother-in-law of Prince Xuan." Liu Suixiang became happy when Lin Bo said this. She didn't care about Lin Xiner's life or death at all, she only cared about the vanity she could get, even if
I was overjoyed to have exchanged my life for her.
"Eh? Why are you still here?" Lin Ke'er, who was about to leave the mansion, had just left the gate of the Grand Master's mansion when she saw Ximen Hai still kneeling at the gate. She knew that he was Xiaoyao Hou's son.
"Miss Lin?" Seeing Lin Ke'er, Ximen Hai's eyes lit up and he said eagerly, "Miss Lin, please help me, please help me intercede with the grand master, and ask the grand master to come forward to protect my father before the emperor."
Say something in front of me, please save my dad, please!"
Saying that, Ximen Hai kowtowed to Lin Ke'er.
Lin Ke'er had never seen such a posture before, so she quickly took a step back and looked at this thin and frail man, who was about the same age as the prince.
Both of them were born in the royal family, and their auras were completely different. Ximen Hai originally lacked the flamboyant spirit of Ximen Jinglie's sons, and now he looked even more depressed.
"Pleading for mercy is just a matter of words." Lin Ke'er said, rolling her eyes, "But I won't plead for you in vain."
"Whatever you need, Miss, just say it. Even if you work like a cow or a horse to serve Miss, I am willing to do so." Ximenhai kowtowed again and again, his forehead red and stained with blood.
"Oh, don't be like this!" Lin Ke'er said, "It's not a difficult request, it's just..."
"Miss, just say it." Ximen Hai raised his head and stared at Lin Ke'er eagerly. In his eyes, Lin Ke'er at this time was like a life-saving fairy who suddenly appeared in front of him. Her beauty brought him hope.
"If you have a chance, help me meet the prince." Lin Ke'er leaned down and whispered in Ximen Hai's ear.
Ximenhai was slightly startled, then nodded repeatedly, "Don't worry, Miss, I will find a way for you."
Lin Keer straightened up with a smile and said to Ximen Hai, "Stand up first. You are also of royal blood. How can you be so humble?"
"If I can't save daddy, I would rather go to hell with daddy." Ximenhai knelt down resolutely.
"Okay, just kneel down and I'll go find my dad." Lin Ke'er said and returned to the Grand Master's Mansion.
"What are you meddling in!" Lin Bo scolded sternly after hearing Lin Ke'er's words.
"Dad, isn't it better to save a life than to build a seven-level pagoda? Ximen Hai begs you because he values your ability. Why doesn't he ask others?" Lin Ke'er said coquettishly. In her heart, she already regarded Ximen Hai as a real person.
She is the stepping stone to get close to the prince. If she doesn't have the chance to get close to the prince, she will find a way on her own. Ximen Hai is also a royal child after all, and no matter how bad he is, he is better than others. There is always some reason to meet the prince.
"What do you know!" Lin Bo looked impatient and said to Liu Suixiang on the side, "Go, take her down, don't cause any trouble for me!"
The death date of Ximen Jingyu, who was imprisoned in the criminal cell, was getting closer and closer. The Zhang Bai Ling had been held in his hand for a long time. Every time the bell struck the hour, he felt that he had taken a step towards the gate of death.
At this point, even if he suddenly realized that he had been tricked by Lin Xiner, it was too late.
"Your Majesty, Xiaoyao Hou is about to die, and Ximen Hai is still kneeling outside the Grand Master's residence." Yang Chen reported to Ximen Jingxuan.
"Lin Bo." Ximen Jingxuan leaned on the rocking chair, swaying leisurely, and whispered Lin Bo's name.
"The prince is waiting for Master Lin to come forward?" Yang Chen asked.
"Limbo will not be involved in this matter. The struggle for power among the royal bloodline has nothing to do with him. He only chooses to surrender to the one who can stand at the top of power in the end, otherwise he will not let his daughter do it.
Opportunities for chess pieces." Ximen Jingxuan said, "What I am worried about is that in order to consolidate his power, he will use Lin Xiner's matter to attack me."
"There has been no news from Princess Xuan for three days, and there is no movement from the people of Yuehua Kingdom." Yang Chen said worriedly, "The princess encountered danger when she first married into the palace, which is really not good for the prince."
"What a hot potato. If you don't marry her, it will be a problem. If you marry her, it will still be a problem." It is obviously a trouble, but when Ximen Jingxuan said this sentence, it turned out to be just a test question to participate in the challenge. Don't be afraid of it.
Difficulty.
Leaning back on the rocking chair and closing his eyes, Ximen Jingxuan found that he could not even put together Lin Xiner's complete face. He did not care about her at all. The picture in his mind changed to that of the woman he had seen in the secret room.
