He is her benefactor and the biggest villain in the book!
Su Li died young and did not see his end with his own eyes.
But she had read the book, and his ending was a hundred times more miserable than hers!
His mother's clan, the Xie family, was defeated in the war, and the 30,000 Changlin army was destroyed. Marshal Xie, his three sons and four grandchildren were all lost on the battlefield.
He went to the northern border to collect corpses, but was assassinated in the process. His legs were mutilated and his appearance was disfigured. As a result, he lost his position as crown prince, and his engagement was broken off. From the crown prince of the Great Xiao, he became the laughing stock of everyone.
Later, Marshal Xie was found guilty of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country. The Xie family was raided and executed, and the nine tribes were executed. Queen Xie Yun burned herself in the Changqiu Palace that night.
He struggled to survive with a broken leg and a disfigured face, and competed with the male protagonist Xiao Jue for the throne. Although he counterattacked, he was ultimately defeated and brutally executed.
After his death, his bones, skin and flesh were divided and eaten by the people, leaving him with an eternal infamy!
Su Li's eyes fell on the meandering team of people supporting the spirits, and tears filled his eyes.
It turns out that this day is actually the day when Prince Xiao Lin welcomes the heroic spirit of the Xie family back to the capital!
No wonder there were wind, rain, thunder and lightning, but it turned out that it was the sky that shed tears for the 50,000 Changlin troops who died tragically in the north!
In the mist and rain, the team got closer and closer, and the cars rolled by, carrying the bodies of the Xie family.
Although the body was covered with white cloth, it could not hide the blood stains.
And the corpse under the white cloth has long lost the shape that a human body should have.
The accompanying soldiers were also scarred and in rags, as if they had just retreated from the battlefield. The bloodstains on their swords were not yet dry, and everyone's face was full of sorrow, anger and sorrow.
Xiao Lin, the leader, was naturally not much better.
Under the white messy hair, there is a pale and withered face. He is obviously no more than 20 years old, in his youth, but the eye sockets are deep, the cheekbones are high, and the face is so thin that it is almost out of shape. He is more than ten years old!
What's even more terrifying is the scar on his face!
The scar started from the left eyebrow and ended at the corner of the right lip. It was obvious that the injury had not been properly treated, causing the scar to rise up like an ugly centipede lying on his face, which was unbearable to look at.
Su Li looked at him from a distance and suddenly remembered the scene when he first met him in his previous life.
At that time, she was returning to Beijing with her grandmother. She met him on the way, and her grandmother took her forward to see him.
The first time she saw him, she was shocked!
Everyone in the world knows that Prince Xiao Lin is as handsome as jade, as beautiful as a dragon or a phoenix, and as handsome as any other.
He doesn't look like a human being, he is clearly a heavenly being!
But in front of him, his immortal bones were broken and his immortal appearance was destroyed!
As a doctor, Su Li quickly discovered something strange about him.
Although he had been sitting upright on the horse, trying to straighten his back, his weak legs straddling the saddle and the rope tightly connected to the horse's back under his robe still betrayed him.
He, just like in his previous life, had been poisoned and his legs were disabled!
Su Li burst into tears.
She suddenly felt so resentful that she couldn't be reborn earlier!
If he had been reborn earlier, this tragedy might have been avoided!
"Oh my God! It turns out that His Highness the Crown Prince's face was disfigured and his legs were disabled, and it was not a rumor!" Someone in the crowd suddenly shouted.
Su Li quickly turned his head and looked towards him.
He was a very inconspicuous man, the kind who would be drowned in a crowd.
His words shocked everyone and everyone looked over and asked: "Why is your leg still disabled? Where did you see it?"
"Look at the rope on his leg!" The man pointed, "He has tied himself to the horse!"
Everyone was doubtful and confused.
"If His Highness the Crown Prince really becomes disabled, how can he become the Crown Prince again?"
The prince is the future emperor.
Naturally, the emperor cannot be a disfigured cripple!
"Didn't His Highness the Crown Prince go to the north to collect the Xie family's bones? How could it be like this?" Someone asked in a low voice.
"You still have to say that? They must have been plotted!"
"Who plotted against His Highness?"
"Who else could it be? Of course..."
The voice lowered little by little.
"It must be that bullshit King Zhao!" Hua Wuyue on the side spat angrily.
"Sister Hua, be careful what you say!" Su Li hurriedly interrupted her, pulled her aside, and whispered, "Talk about the affairs of the Tian Family in an unreasonable manner, and you will be killed!"
Hua Wuyue stuck out her tongue: "I forgot about it for a moment, thank you sister for reminding me! However, everyone in the capital knows about this, so it's nothing new! King Zhao is really annoying!"
Su Li was silent.
Zhao Wang Xiao Jun is Xiao Lin's old enemy and the most powerful competitor for imperial power.
But, is this really the case?
She shook her head slowly.
After returning home, she asked Ruan Ling to continue packing her luggage. She went to the drug store on the street and bought a bunch of medicine. After she came back, she started to get busy.
"Girl, what are you doing?" Ruan Ling asked curiously.
"I'm concocting pills..." Su Li handed her a few bottles of pills he had just made, "Put these pills away!"
Ruan Ling took it and put it in the cabinet.
Su Li straightened his clothes and stood up: "Ling'er, I have to go out. You stay at home and guard the door. We will set off to my grandfather's house tomorrow morning!"
Ruan Ling became even more confused when he heard: "What did the girl say? It's completely dark today. Where are you going? No matter where you go, let me follow you! How can I let you go out alone at this time?"
"No need!" Su Li shook his head, "Just wait at home! Don't ask any more questions!"
Ruan Ling looked at her blankly.
The girl behaves differently than before.
Today in court, her words were as sharp as a knife and her power was so threatening that she forced the Jiang family to reveal their true colors.
She is no longer the obedient and clueless silly girl she was before.
Ruan Ling didn't know why she had such a big change.
But this change made her happy and admired her.
Ruan Ling is a very competent maid who only obeys her master's orders, so she hesitated for a moment and then nodded quickly: "Slave, listen to the girl!"
Su Li nodded towards her and went out quietly.
The rain outside became heavier and became more and more violent.
She held up the oil-paper umbrella and walked straight to Xie's house.
The Xie family is not far from the Gu family, separated by two streets, about three or four miles.
She walked against the wind and rain, and as soon as she walked down a street, she heard faint bursts of crying. When she stood in front of Xie's house, her eyes were filled with plainness, and the sound of crying was loud.
The cold wind blows, and the feeling of despair and sorrow mixes with the sound of wind and rain, making a whimpering sound that changes the color of the mountains and rivers, and makes the heaven and earth feel sad together.
Su Li stood in the cold wind and rain. Tears filled his eyes again when he recalled the tragic situation when his grandfather's family was robbed.
She knew that the sky in Xie's mansion had fallen.
All the men were gone, only women and children were left, and Xiao Lin, the only hope, was in this situation again.
Queen Xie Yun had been in the Xie Mansion for a long time. When she saw the bodies of her father and brother, she was already in grief. When she saw her son's miserable condition, she couldn't bear it anymore and she fainted.
When the ladies and girls in each room saw the body of their husband's father, they were also in agony.
At this time, only crying can vent the inner despair, sadness, helplessness and hesitation.
