Compared to the courtyard where Lin was imprisoned, there were more guards in Hanshan Pavilion. After all, Gongsun Yi's force was not weak. Even if his internal strength was suppressed, he might have found various ways to escape. But who would have thought that it was not Gongsun Yi who used the tricks? , but Lin.
Hanshan Pavilion was silent at this time. When Li Qingyi walked in, he saw Gongsun Yi sitting at the stone table under the locust tree in the courtyard, pouring tea and drinking himself. The light and shadow cast on him, bright and dark.
Seeing Li Qingyi walk in, he just said calmly, with the same gentle and elegant temperament as before, "You're here."
Li Qingyi's tone was the same as usual, "It seems that after one night, you have figured out a lot of things."
Gongsun Yi was noncommittal and motioned for her to sit down, "Brother should be back soon."
Li Qingyi sat down opposite him, "I don't think you want to see that person very much."
She was referring to Gongsun Yi's biological father.
Gongsun Yi smiled, with complex emotions hidden in his smile, "Indeed."
"But you should also want to know your own life experience. No one wants to know who they are."
Gongsun Yi then raised his eyes to look at her, "You came to me at this time. Did something happen to my mother? Did she escape?"
Li Qingyi couldn't hide the surprise in his eyes, "Have you expected it? Have you expected that he would abandon your son and run away alone?"
Gongsun Yi's eyes lingered on her face for a moment, and finally he looked away, "You should also feel that my mother's all-around skills are just her means. In fact, she has a cold temperament, is full of calculations, and has no regard for my son. Closeness.”
Li Qingyi was a little surprised that he would say this bluntly, but he also understood that Gongsun Yi might not get any useful information here.
He knows very well what to say and what not to say.
Li Qingyi was silent for a moment, looked directly at Gongsun Yi and said: "Your father's status should not be high, and you were just a stepping stone for Lin to enter the Zhenbei Palace. Even though she has raised you for nearly twenty years, to her, You are more like her subordinate than a close relative."
It's like a man randomly finding a woman to give birth to a child. There is no emotion between the two, and there is even a huge identity difference between the two. The child is just a tool. With such original intention, how can the father and son get close to each other and mother and son?
Lin has been hiding in Zhenbei Prince's Mansion for so many years, and using her status as Princess Zhenbei to socialize is definitely not in vain. There must be someone like Wei Shicheng who was an official in the Dajing court but secretly loyal to others. With such a big conspiracy, Lin could not be a person who valued the affection of his children, nor could he be a kind and loving elder.
Gongsun Yi smiled bitterly upon hearing this, "You are really... good at ripping people's hearts off."
Li Qingyi felt a trace of guilt in his heart.
She didn't want to expose the other person's wounds, but since her stance was different, there was no need to be too pretentious.
"So, in contrast, your mother's status should not be low in that organization."
Hearing this, Gongsun Yi drank the tea in his hand silently and said nothing.
Li Qingyi saw this, stood up and left.
Chang Ning followed her except Hanshan Pavilion and couldn't help but ask: "What did grandma ask?"
Li Qingyi sighed, shook his head, and then said, "I'm wondering if there are still orphans who are still dreaming of reviving the great cause of rejuvenation, even though the royal bloodline of the Han Dynasty has failed to restore the country three times."
"Ah?" Chang Ning felt that her thoughts were jumping a little, "The royal family of the Tang Dynasty? The blood of the previous dynasty? Who? The Lin family??"
Li Qingyi asked her: "Do you have any outrageous ideas in your little mind? Tell me about it?"
Changning was embarrassed, "What an outrageous idea..."
She turned her head and rolled her eyes in the air, then turned back to look at Li Qingyi, "Grandma, maybe she thinks that this Lin is actually a princess from the previous dynasty, who sacrificed herself for the great cause of restoring the country, and gave birth to a child with her boss. Zhenbei Palace, socializing as Zhenbei Princess, and instigating those centuries-old families to follow her in doing great things?"
Li Qingyi raised his eyebrows, "That makes sense."
"Ah?" Chang Ning was confused, "My slave said it casually."
Li Qingyi looked at her with admiration, "You are extremely talented."
Chang Ning resisted the urge to roll his eyes, "If the Lin family is really of the previous dynasty's blood, then Chongnan's female Imperial Preceptor is also of the previous dynasty's blood? She also gave birth to a daughter with Mu Rencheng? Oh, this... this is not changing the medicine. The moves..."
Chang Ning rubbed his head where he had lost a lot of hair after staying up all night reading the script. After thinking for a long time, he whispered: "I think you can't eat a fat man in one bite. How can anyone oppose such a thing as rebellion?" Unless they are really orphans of the previous dynasty, in their eyes, the century-old families in Dajing and Chongnan are all old ministers of the previous dynasty, and they are all targets they can instigate. In addition, they can pit the two countries against each other and fight fiercely, and then benefit from it... "
Li Qingyi's eyebrows skipped a beat when he heard this, "When the uncle comes back in the afternoon, you can tell him these words again."
Chang Ning was stunned, "If you talk nonsense in front of adults, you will be criticized!"
Li Qingyi was funny, "Don't worry, I will save you."
"Why didn't grandma say anything herself?"
Li Qingyi smiled and said nothing.
Would I tell you that I'm afraid my man will laugh at me?
"Where are you going, grandma? The way back to the east courtyard is over there."
"Let's go back to Jusi Pavilion and have a look."
Before Qin Zeng comes back, Li Qingyi must at least find the insider who can help Lin escape.
Jusi Pavilion is a relatively remote courtyard in the middle courtyard. It has been unoccupied for a long time. When Lin was imprisoned that day, the main house was simply tidied up. The house was covered in dust, and the doors and windows of each house were closed. It looked very desolate and desolate.
Li Qingyi returned here, Lianshuang and Changlan quickly cheered up, and Mrs. Cheng also quickly stood up from the stool.
"Did grandma think of something?" Lianshuang felt guilty and anxious after seeing the person lost.
"Open the door and I'll go in and take a look."
Hearing this, Lianshuang quickly stepped forward and opened the door, and the smell of rotten food immediately came out.
Li Qingyi took out his handkerchief and covered his mouth and nose and walked in, but unexpectedly saw a black shadow swooping out from behind the screen!
"who!"
Mrs. Cheng was so courageous that she picked up the vase on the side and rushed in front of the crowd, but there was no movement inside. Changlan was guarding Li Qingyi and pulled out the soft sword from his waist to deal with it at any time.
Li Qingyi opened his mouth to test: "Whoever is in there, come out on your own, otherwise, don't blame us for being ruthless!"
However, after several people waited for a long time, there was still no movement inside.
Li Qingyi frowned and strode behind the screen.
"Grandma, be careful..."
Chang Lan stopped mid-sentence because there was really nothing behind the screen. All he saw was a messy bed and sour food.
"It's really weird, I clearly saw a black shadow!"
Changlan and others also expressed that they had seen it.
Li Qingyi was surprised. She was definitely not wrong, but there was really nothing everywhere. The scene just now seemed like an illusion.
She approached the bed and suddenly gave a startled sound.
Changlan asked hurriedly: "What's wrong?"
"Do you feel that the bed seems to have been touched and is a little messier than before?"
When she was called over by the old lady just now, the food was spilled because the food box tipped over, but the spilled food was piled up in one direction. At this moment, they were all scattered, and even a few fish bones fell to the ground.
Lianshuang shook her head, "This slave came in first, not just to see what the mattress looked like."
No one else came in with him.
Li Qingyi said firmly: "The things must have been touched!"
"Is it the dark shadow just now? Is there something hidden in the food? Someone came to look for it?"
At this time, a slight "bang" sound suddenly came from the side. Everyone's nerves instantly became tense and they looked towards the place where the sound came from. But I saw a big black cat leaping down from the beam. It glanced at the fish bones scattered on the ground reluctantly, licked its tongue, jumped out of the door, and disappeared into the courtyard.
"It turns out to be this little beast. When did this cat come in?" Mrs. Cheng was so frightened that she broke into a cold sweat. She complained and breathed a sigh of relief. It would be terrible if she really met some bad guy.
Li Qingyi stared at the direction where the cat disappeared and breathed a sigh of relief, but felt a little disappointed.
Several people came out of the house, and Lianshuang locked the door again. Li Qingyi stood under the window and looked into the house, murmuring: "How did Mrs. Lin leave the room quietly without disturbing anyone?"
Lian Shuang said: "It would have been nice if we had left two people in the room and kept a good eye on Mrs. Lin."
Changlan shook his head: "If that's the case, these two people must be dead."
However, Li Qingyi suddenly thought of something and asked Lianshuang: "According to common sense, someone should be left to guard Lin. Who escorted her over at that time?"
Heng Wu recalled it and said: "At that time, the old lady said that Huiyue Residence would be raided, so Changlan Changning stayed behind. Sister Lanqi wanted to stay with the old lady to obey her orders. Sister Fenghe and Mother Cheng were called by grandma to explain the matter. , so it was Mother Zhao who led people to escort the princess to Jusi Pavilion."
Lianshuang said at the side, "Then grandma asked the slave to come to Jusi Pavilion to guard her. When the slave arrived, Mother Zhao was about to lock the door. I peeked inside the room and saw the princess sitting on the bed."
"How did you see Mrs. Lin when you were standing outside, clearly separated by a screen?" Li Qingyi looked at Lianshuang in confusion, "Did you see Mrs. Lin with your own eyes, or did you only see Mrs. Lin's shadow through the screen?"
Seeing the change in her expression, Lian Shuang realized something and said at a loss: "It's a shadow... The slave just saw the princess's shadow through the screen. Then Zhao's mother locked the door. She said that the old lady wanted to guard the princess. No one is allowed to come into contact with you, so it’s safer to lock the door.”
Li Qingyi pondered deeply, and it was understandable that Zhao's mother locked the door directly, but it still felt a bit strange.
The old lady said that Lin was going to be imprisoned in Jusi Pavilion. According to ordinary people's understanding, it was enough to send people to guard the surroundings. Why did she think of locking the door directly?
Gongsun Yi was tied up and returned to Hanshan Pavilion, and he was not allowed to go out without being locked in the room.
She thought for a while and asked Lianshuang, "You were standing outside at that time, could you hear us talking in the yard?"
Except for Changning Changlan who was following Li Qingyi, everyone else shook their heads.
As if his eyelids were pricked by a needle, Li Qingyi's long eyelashes trembled heavily!
