The killing was carried out in silence, and the snow in the snow was dyed red. Li Lin sat there, quietly watching the killing from start to finish.
He sat there, not even an inch of the snow in the snow stained the corners of his clothes, as if he were a banished immortal in the sky rather than in the world, looking coldly at the killings and struggles in this world.
When the last person fell, he closed his eyes and wanted to drink tea, but found that the tea in his hand was already cold.
Ju Song jumped off the roof and counted the people in black clothes on the ground. He was wearing black clothes, the sword in his hand was stained with blood, and his face was frozen by the wind.
Just as he was kicking a man in black over, something suddenly fell from the man's body, fell into the snow, and was buried in the snow. Seeing this, the people on the side took it out from their arms. A snow-white veil was handed over.
Jusong took it and took it out of the snow through the handkerchief. When he looked at it, he found that it was a small golden sign with a smooth back, and on the other side, there was a word written on it. Clear words.
bright? !
King Ming? !
Ju Song frowned, and then handed the things to the man in black beside him to clean them up, while he went to report the matter himself.
Li Lin was still sitting in his original position, but he stopped drinking tea. Yuanyou beside him took a copper basin, poured the hot water heated by the master and washed his face and hands, looking very refreshed and comfortable.
Ju Song glanced at Yuanyou, and then reported to Li Lin: "Master, there are twenty-one people here today. Eight people outside the courtyard and three people on the roof were all killed. Four of us were injured. There is no death.”
Li Lin nodded: "Take care of these people and let them go down to rest. There is no need to arrange a vigil tonight."
"yes."
Li Lin asked: "What was found? Do you know who did it?"
Ju Song said: "Previously, a sign fell out of that man's body, with a clear character written on it, which seemed to point to the Ming King of Dong Zhao. But before nightfall, my subordinates received news from the returning wind that it was from the Sui Prince's Mansion. Something strange happened."
Li Lin raised his eyes: "Oh? Prince Sui's Mansion?"
Ju Song said: "Hui Feng ordered people to check Prince Sui's Mansion today, but they learned that the second wife of Pingbaihou Mansion and Princess Sui plotted against the princess. King Sui knew about it."
"King Sui also knew that the young master sent people to protect the princess. Since he knew that the young master sent people to protect the princess, then the plan of the two people must not be successful. If so, why did King Sui let Princess Sui do this? Do it, this is a doubtful point."
Since things can't be done, and you still watch your princess do it, isn't this offending people for nothing?
This thing is really weird.
So Huifeng ordered someone to send news, guessing that King Sui might have another purpose and asked him to pay more attention to it, but it was a pity that the current assassination happened before the matter was investigated.
Such a coincidence, Ju Song would not believe it if it had nothing to do with King Sui.
And after getting the gold medal with clear words engraved on it, Ju Song thought about it a little more.
Li Lin frowned slightly: "King Sui wants to put the blame on King Ming?"
Ju Song nodded: "My subordinates also guessed the same."
It would be reasonable to say that King Sui's purpose was to blame King Ming.
only......
Li Lin narrowed his eyes slightly. If it was really just a matter of placing the blame, any day would be fine. Why bother to calculate the manpower assigned to him on Su Wan's side?
I'm afraid it's King Sui, but he actually wants his life.
Regardless of whether the matter succeeds or not, the blame can be put on King Ming. If he is still alive and finds out about this, he will definitely settle the debt with King Ming. If it succeeds and he dies, the Li family from Li City and King Ming will also settle the debt. Account.
At that time, King Ming will naturally not end well, but King Sui has removed a roadblock and his position is more stable.
But why did King Sui want his life? Is it possible that he is not afraid of being found out and being retaliated against?
Li Lin thought for a while, and thought of the unpleasant meeting between him and King Sui at Fengxue Tower, and it suddenly became funny. Could it be that King Sui felt that he had rejected him and refused to give him face, so he was angry and wanted to kill him to solve the problem? This hatred in my heart.
Li Lin gently touched the edge of the teacup with his fingers three times, and then said: "Order someone to check. King Sui wants to check, and King Ming also wants to check. If it is really King Sui's handiwork, we must also do a good job Let’s settle the score with him.”
If you do something you shouldn't do, you will always have to pay the due price.
Li Lin actually didn't care much about other people plotting against him. Maybe in recent years, there were too many people who wanted to plot against him, so he just wanted to get the debt back.
But this time, Prince Sui's palace was involved in Su Wan's affairs, which made him very unhappy. Su Wan was already engaged to him and was his fiancée. Princess Sui still wanted to use such vicious methods. They were separated by means and allowed Su Wan to marry someone else.
Duke Ning's Mansion may settle the score with Heping Baihou Mansion in this matter, but Princess Sui and the Shen family may not be able to do much, after all, the Shen family's young master was beaten like this.
"Send someone to check on the Shen family as soon as possible."
"Yes." Ju Song took the order, then arranged for people to drag away the man in black in the yard, and brought a big bucket to shovel the red snow on the ground and carry it away. Finally, he poured salt water on the ground. , the white snow melted and turned into snow water, and finally sprinkled with medicinal powder to disperse all the bloody smell.
By tomorrow morning, there will be a layer of white snow in the yard again, and the yard will be the same as before, as if nothing ever happened.
In the early morning of the next day, when Li Lin opened the door, there was indeed snow on the ground in the courtyard. The cold wind blew, and the ice and snow that filled it was freezing.
The snow that had fallen all night has stopped, the sky has cleared up a little, and everything is bright.
It's like all the darkness and filth have dispersed, leaving the world pure and clear.
Li Lin was worried about Su Wan, and the affairs of the students were basically over, so he took his people back to the imperial city.
Several students were chattering on the way, either discussing knowledge or business matters, their little faces full of excitement.
Li Lin admired these young men very much. Although they were poor, they lived in poverty, and sometimes it was difficult to even pay for study and study.
The eldest boy among them, even because he had no money, studied intermittently and walked on this road with difficulty.
But they are all simple and filial young men.
What Li Lin likes most is their filial piety. If a person doesn't even have filial piety in this world, how much kindness can he expect from them in the future.
I hope that their future journey will be smoother, and that they can maintain their true intentions and do more good things that benefit the people in the future.
He looked at the snow in the distant mountains outside the carriage and laughed.
Just when Li Lin was leading people to the imperial city, people from Pingbaihou Mansion also took Su Ruo to the gate of Jinning Duke's Mansion. The Wang family also pulled Jinning Duke over today, intending to listen to these How do people apologize?
However, this attitude must be shown. Mrs. Wang ordered people to welcome the person in, and then left the person directly in the hall where the guests were received without asking any questions.
Not to mention burning the ground dragon or setting up a brazier, there was not even a sip of hot tea. Sitting in a cold room in the middle of winter, I almost fainted from the cold.
