Marry a Villain ( 嫁反派 ) - Chapter 35

[Chapter 35 Chapter 35]

Disaster relief food turned into chaff?

“How could this be?”

Yu Lingxi originally thought that her brother was injured or encountered a bandit, but unexpectedly it was such a big case, “Didn’t you check before departure?”

“How could it not be checked? Yu Huanchen is not stupid. When he set off, he checked several times, and the disaster food was normal. However, when he arrived in Luozhou County, he found that the disaster food had been stolen and replaced. Behind this, someone must be framing it! ”

Having said that, Yu Xinyi stared at her still immature younger sister, and said earnestly, “Sui Sui, A-niang has not recovered from her old illness and can’t bear the stimulation. She must not know about this, only us…”

“I know how to do it, sister. If someone is really framed, it must be the humerus dignitaries in the DPRK who can do this. And military commanders embezzling grain money is a serious crime next to treason.

Yu Lingxi pinched her palm, trying her best to calm down her voice, “We can’t leak the news, and we can’t report the truth to the Son of Heaven, otherwise someone with a heart will provoke a little bit, Longyan will be furious, and the elder brother will be convicted of stealing food for disaster.”

“exactly.”

Seeing that her sister’s mind was clear, Yu Xinyi was relieved a little, “I came back secretly to communicate with you, and now I have to go back to the palace to be on duty. You are staying at home and accompany your mother, don’t be in a mess.”

Yu Lingxi nodded: “I know.”

After seeing Yu Xinyi away, before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he saw Mrs. Yu pushing the door and came in, worried: “Sui Sui, your elder sister was in a hurry just now, what happened?” https://m.biqiudu.com Pen Interest Court

Yu Lingxi sorted out her expression, got up quickly and said with a smile, “It’s okay, she left something and came back to get it.”

With clean eyes, she pretended to be normal and stepped forward to support Mrs. Yu, and said easily: “It’s going to rain, A-Niang can’t blow the wind, so go back to the house and rest. Can I rub your shoulders for you?”

Mrs. Yu raised her eyebrows and said softly, “Okay. If your elder sister is half as careful as you, she will be content with your mother.”

Yu Lingxi pursed her lips and smiled, looking at the gloomy sky outside.

Clouds and ink are low, and the mountains and rains are about to come.

You Zheng, the servant hung a lantern with a long handle, Yu Lingxi accompanied A-Niang to have dinner and rested, and finally heard the footsteps of Yu Xinyi returning to the mansion from outside the door.

Yu Lingxi got up immediately and asked, “How?”

Yu Xinyi’s face was even more dignified than during the day, he took off his cloak wet by the rain, and shook his head.

Yu Lingxi’s heart was cold and sinking like it was soaked in rainwater.

“Where’s Dad?” she asked.

It was Yu Lingxi’s day. As long as Dad was still there, the Yu family would not collapse.

Yu Xinyi said, “Father claims to be ill and has rushed to Luozhou to stabilize the situation.”

Yu Lingxi had a glimmer of hope: “As long as the vacancy of disaster food is filled before the court finds out, it will be fine.”

“It’s too late, Suishui.”

Yu Xinyi took a deep breath and said the most worrying situation, “The imperial court sent inspectors to the four counties of Luozhou overnight on the grounds of being sympathetic to the people. Both Yu Huanchen and Dad will die.”

Yu Lingxi took a breath.

The emperor did not know that there was a problem with the disaster food, why was he so anxious to send an inspector?

Could it be that someone is deliberately adding fuel to the flames and wants to put the Yu family to death?

“Sister, which adult is the inspector?” Yu Lingxi asked.

Yu Xinyi hurried home from the palace after hearing the news that the inspector had left the capital, and immediately said, “It’s Wang Lingqing, the servant of the household.”

Wang Lingqing…

The name is very familiar, seems to have heard it before.

Thinking of something, Yu Lingxi suddenly raised her eyes and said in a low voice, “Sister, he belongs to the prince.”

Yu Xinyi was shocked: “Sui Sui, how do you know?”

Wang Lingqing has always been sophisticated and slick like an old loach. Even Yu Xinyi, who is often on duty in the palace, doesn’t know what party he belongs to. How did his sister in the boudoir know that he is under the prince’s command?

Yu Lingxi realized that he had missed the point, but he couldn’t care less now.

She remembered that not long after she entered the palace in her previous life, someone presented a precious beauty to Ning Yinjin.

Ning Yin leaned on a cane and went straight past the red-robed official who was crawling on the ground, and said coolly, “Wang Lingqing, I don’t need a slave with two surnames by my side.”

The officials in Zhupao immediately followed Ning Yin’s footsteps on their knees, and said flatteringly, “Weichen used to have no eyeballs, so I followed too… oh no, the former prince. Now I have abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, and I am willing to smear the ground for the prince!”

“Oh?” Ning Yin glanced at him, then narrowed his eyes and laughed lowly.

Yu Lingxi remembered the name so clearly because Ning Yin really fulfilled his “liver and brain” that day.

He ordered Wang Lingqing’s liver and brain to be dissected out, chopped up and fed to the dog.

“Probably, I heard something from my father or brother…”

Yu Lingxi made up a reason at random and changed the topic, “Sister, now is not the time to ask this.”

“That’s right, you woke me up.”

Yu Xinyi analyzed, “Dad’s unwillingness to attach to the East Palace faction has long been a thorn in the eyes of the crown prince, not to mention the fact that after successive marriages are abandoned, it is not impossible for him to take this matter to suppress and annex the Yu family.”

All doubts are resolved.

Before noon tomorrow, die or surrender.

Thinking of this, Yu Xinyi gritted his silver teeth, clenched his fists and said, “Despicable!”

“Sister, don’t be in a hurry, hide from A-Niang first.”

Yu Lingxi thought for a moment, and said decisively, “There is still time, I will go to Xue’s house.”

Pushing the door open, a strong wind and a shower of rain came in the face, and the world was dark.

In the back alley, the wings of the gray falcon swept across the sky and disappeared into the dense raindrops.

Inside the room, Ning Yin took off the ravioli and sat down, using the dim light to scan the secret note in his palm.

A few lines of teeny and small letters on the top cover what happened in the imperial city and the four counties of Luozhou.

The line of his lips raised a sarcastic arc, which was not what he expected: Ning Tan, the pig, still couldn’t help but attack Yu Huanchen.

The hidden 30,000 stone of grain is enough to support a team.

Sandpipers and clams compete, and it is the most suitable for fishing.

The more muddy the water in the court, the easier it will be for him to rise up. As for who gets involved in the game and how many people will die…

Ning Yin placed the secret note on the oil lamp and lit it. Looking at the jumping flame, she thought indifferently: Who cares?

Except for those eyes that were as bright as autumn water, all living beings in his eyes were blurred, and they were all ants.

The sound of horses and chariots came from the corner gate.

Ning Yin got up and looked into the courtyard along the gap of the door, just in time to see the maid hurriedly holding an umbrella, protecting the dignified Yu Lingxi out of the corner door.

The neighing of the horses came from the noise of the rain, and then the sound of the reels went away. For a long time, Yu Lingxi did not come back.

The relaxed and leisurely look in Ning Yin’s eyes faded away, and the shadows turned into gloom.

He casually leaned against the door, inexplicably a little unhappy: “It’s so late, who are you looking for?”

Yu Lingxi went to see Xue Youxiang.

Xue Cen’s grandfather was the right minister of the head of the civil service, and held a pivotal position in the court. His old man was the last hope that Yu Lingxi could think of at this time.

The night came very early on a rainy day, the twilight was all around, and there were very few people on the street.

Within a quarter of an hour, Yu Lingxi’s carriage stopped in front of Xue’s residence.

It was the housekeeper of Xue’s house who came to open the door. Hearing the intention of Yu Lingxi’s visit, he smiled and said embarrassedly: “The second lady came by accident. The two adults of my family are both driving in the palace and have not yet returned to the house.”

In the absence of Xue Youxiang, most of Yu Lingxi’s hopes that had just been ignited were extinguished.

After thinking about it, she said again, “Is Xue Erlang here?”

“This…my Erlang is not here either.”

The housekeeper apologized: “If you have anything important to say to the second lady, feel free to tell me. When the masters return, I will report it on my behalf.”

It’s too late, we can only think of another way.

“No need, thank you.”

Yu Lingxi said “nuisance”, turned around in the carriage, and hurried back to discuss countermeasures with Yu Xinyi.

She couldn’t do nothing and watch her father and brother fall into the trap of partisan struggle.

Unexpectedly, when he returned to the mansion, he heard from the guard that Yu Xinyi had just gone out.

Yu Lingxi suddenly had an ominous omen, and she didn’t care to wipe off the rain on her body, and asked, “Where did she go?”

“My subordinates don’t know.”

The guard said, “However, the eldest lady came out of the house wearing the official robe of the Hundred Knights.”

Official gown?

It’s so late, my sister doesn’t need to be on duty and it’s impossible to enter the palace to face the Holy Spirit. Why wear official uniforms?

Thinking of the anger and anxiety of the elder sister when she talked about the prince today, Yu Lingxi felt a blow to the head: shouldn’t the elder sister go directly to the prince to ask for mercy?

“How long has Sister been out?” Her breathing was trembling.

The guard replied: “Just left, less than a cup of tea.”

So impulsive!

The prince set up a trap just to force the Yu family to submit. A sister going to the East Palace at this time was like a sheep entering a tiger’s mouth. How could the prince’s temperament make her retreat?

No one knew what the prince would do, and the more Yu Lingxi thought about it, the colder his heart became.

It was the first time she was so panicked after being reborn for so long. Father and brother are already in deep trouble, and my sister must never have another accident!

The only people who can hold down the prince at the moment are the two in the palace. But ordinary people can’t enter the palace at all, so they have to ask someone from the royal family for help…

Yu Lingxi raised her eyes and ordered someone to bring Yu Xinyi’s saber.

She grabbed the scabbard and handed it to the guard, and said solemnly, “Take your sister’s saber and go to the Nanyang County Prince’s Mansion and tell the Xiaojun Prince that Yu Xinyi is trapped in the East Palace and his life is in danger. I beg him to see that my sister had sacrificed her life to save her. For his sake, quickly enter the palace to save him! Go!”

Frightened by the quietness in her eyes, the guards did not dare to neglect, hurriedly took the saber in both hands, turned over and rode away.

But the crown prince will definitely not let Ning Zizhuo enter the East Palace for bad things. If he wants to save the elder sister, Ning Zizhuo must enter the palace and invite the emperor or queen.

That’s too late.

I have to try to hold back the prince and buy time for my sister.

Thinking of this, Yu Lingxi’s heart sank, and he instructed Hu Tao, “Prepare the horse and go to the East Palace.”

The night rain poured, and the carriage galloped along Yongxing Street.

Because it was too bumpy, the tea cups and fruit plates on the table all rolled down. Yu Lingxi remained motionless, sitting upright with her skirt tucked, with a sharply polished golden shawl lying across her knees and palms.

She is very sober, and the crown prince is the crown prince. If she stabs the crown prince, it will only make the whole family of Yu family into a more difficult situation.

So this golden shawl was not prepared for Ning Tan, but for herself.

Yu Lingxi knew that Ning Tan was more interested in her than her sister, and this was the only chance for her to delay time and exchange for her.

If Ning Zizhuo can’t bring in to help the soldiers, then she can only…

“who?”

The groom who was driving the carriage was shocked and hurriedly tightened the reins.

The carriage came to a sudden stop, and Yu Lingxi was thrown forward by the huge inertia force.

The candlestick on the table fell down, and it was dark all around. After a long while, Yu Lingxi found her breath, and slowly exhaled the turbid air that was closed in her chest.

“What happened?” she asked.

Except for the rushing rain, there was no movement outside the car.

Yu Lingxi touched the falling golden pin, clutched it in front of her chest to defend herself, took a deep breath, and summoned up her courage to lift the curtain.

Immediately stunned.

I saw the lantern in front of the car was dim, casting three feet of dim light in the rainy night.

The raindrops glowed golden under the light, and the driver had already fallen to the side of the road and passed out. In the place where the driver was originally, there was a very familiar young man in black.

Ning Yin grabbed the reins of the horse with one hand, wrapped it around her arm and pulled it fiercely, but she actually stopped the galloping horse by herself!

“Wei Qi.”

Yu Lingxi stared blankly at Ning Yin’s tall and straight back in the rainy night, and suddenly burst into anger, “You are crazy!”

Such a fast horse will be trampled into mud if you are not careful.

How dare he!

“Miss is crazy.” Ning Yin dropped the reins and turned around.

Only then did Yu Lingxi realize that his face was terribly cold, and the rain swept across his cold white face, and then dripped down the tip of his nose and jaw.

“Where are you going, Miss? East Palace?”

His dark eyes seemed to be quenched with cold, and it seemed like dark magma was surging, and he drew a sneer that was not successful, “You know what it means to go there?”

Yu Lingxi stared at him for a long time, and his eyes were filled with excitement: “I know.”

But she couldn’t think of a better way.

Yu Lingxi held the golden shawl and said softly, “I’m not afraid, Wei Qi.”

But he was afraid.

Ning Yin’s lips moved, the rain was so loud that Yu Lingxi couldn’t hear what he said.

“What?” Yu Lingxi asked.

“I say,”

Ning Yin’s body was covered in the coldness of the night. He leaned over to stare at him, and said word by word, “Miss, now, go back to me now!”
