He sat up with his right hand and blew out the dazzling candle.
He grabbed the extinguished candlestick from the opponent's hand and threw it away.
Then before she could ask any questions, she lowered her head and kissed her.
It hurts a lot, so I need to get some interest back.
Before being sucked into the whirlpool, Lin Xi's last thought was that the young man was indeed in good health.
——
Since making the decision, Lin Xi has become a little restless.
After all, the departure was imminent, and she couldn't kill another carbine after leaving for the city.
But Zhongxiao almost never came out of the Prince's Mansion except for going to court every morning.
She couldn't lie in ambush on the way up or down the road. The risk of killing someone on the street was very high.
It is even more impossible to bring a group of people directly into the Prince's Mansion and kill people. This plan is even less feasible.
Even Liang Jing'an noticed that Lin Xi was a little uneasy.
However, he thought he was leaving the capital and didn't think much about it.
That afternoon, Liang Jing'an had half a day of free time. He drank tea at home and called Lin Xi to talk.
Of course Lu Yan is also there. He rarely goes out recently and mostly stays at home with his wife.
Lin Xi was not in the mood to drink tea, so she absentmindedly picked up a grape.
After eating, he was stunned for a moment and handed it to the uncle next to him.
Liang Jing'an took it, took one, and handed it to Lu Yan calmly.
Lu Yan didn't think much about it. After eating, he glanced at the two people and then handed it to Lin Yan who had just arrived.
"My brother-in-law treats me well. I like my brother-in-law the most!" Lin Yan took it with both hands. After taking one pill, his features were so sour that he deformed. "Why didn't you tell me it was so sour! You can't eat this at all!"
Lin Xi said in a faint voice: "Although it is a rare tribute, this one really only looks good and does not taste good at all. It seems that there is nothing wrong with my sense of taste."
Lin Yan: "..."
You are so terrible. Are you my biological sister?
He doesn’t like his brother-in-law anymore either!
Lin Xi felt calm under the glare of the other party. Next time, she should know better not to trust people casually.
Taxue walked in, walked straight to Lin Xi, bent down and whispered a few words in her ear.
Lin Xi stood up excitedly after hearing this. His eyes lit up instantly.
Liang Jing'an was a little surprised that the other party reacted so suddenly and asked with a smile: "What did Texue tell you to make you so excited?"
Lin Xi: "Why am I so excited? I just said something that only girls can listen to. I won't tell you that."
very good! The opportunity came!
Liang Jing'an shook his head and said with a smile, "Okay, you won't tell me."
He didn't ask about his little daughter's thoughts.
Lin Xi said in a cheerful voice: "Then I won't drink tea with my uncle. I want to go out."
Liang Jing'an: "Go ahead."
How could he, a man, know anything about little girls?
After Lin Xi left, he said to Lu Yan beside him, "Why don't you go see what she is doing when she goes out."
"Then I'll go take a look, just because I'm afraid she'll find me annoying."
"How could it be? You are a couple after all, so you are different from others."
Lu Yan walked to the yard where the two of them were, and then wiped the smile from his face.
Over there, Lin Xi had already picked up his sword and brought the clothes he would change into later.
It was the same one he wore when he assassinated Zhong Xiao last time. I wonder if the other party would be surprised if he saw this outfit again.
Lu Yan was a little uneasy. Lin Xi was too active in killing that person, and was even a little desperate.
He grabbed the person's arm: "Do you have to go? Even if he doesn't die today, I have a way to deal with him. Maybe there is no need to rush."
What a rush, she has been anxious for a long time! Can't wait any longer!
Lin Xi's voice was firm: "I have a reason to kill him."
Even if she explains it, others may not believe it. Could it be that she dreamed that everyone would die in the hands of Shen Chongxiao? This is too far-fetched.
And she wants that person's life, so why bother to explain.
Lin Xi had to watch Zhong Xiao die before Lin Xi could leave with peace of mind.
Even if she said it was her inner demon, she admitted it.
Texue helped Lin Xi fasten her cloak and said in a nervous voice: "I have ironed all the clothes I will wear later. I will help hide it from the Duke and the eldest son. The young lady just needs not to come back too late."
Lin Xi shook her hand hard: "Thank you."
When she had a plan, she was the first to tell Lu Yan, and the second person to tell was Texue.
Then I discussed with Taxue who could be brought along on the day of the operation.
Texue shook his head and said solemnly: "I want to thank you, Miss. I hope you can come here... Everything goes well. I'm waiting for you to come back."
The author has something to say:
It will probably be over in just a few chapters.
Chapter 78
◎Fire◎
Of course Tuxue also knew the danger, but since Lin Xi said he must go.
Then she chose to believe in the eldest lady's choice.
A woman's intuition is very accurate. She had a hunch that if the new crown prince successfully ascended the throne, he would definitely pose a huge threat to the Duke's palace.
For her, if there is anything more important than the face of the Duke's Mansion, it can only be the safety of the Duke's Mansion.
Even if we put all this aside, she has a grudge against the royal family. The so-called relief is just a compromise that she has to make for the sake of the stability of the court.
She never forgot her murdered family members. I wish the royal family would die cleanly!
It would be great if the Duke of the country could take over.
Or it would be fine for a small county prince to become the emperor, and then the Duke of the country would become an auxiliary minister.
Whether it's for your previous family or your current family.
She would like to solemnly thank Lin Xi.
Lu Yan glanced at Texue.
Lin Xi, this maid... I have to say, she is a woman who has many ideas and dares to think.
The key is to be smart and courageous,
"Perhaps a more careful plan is needed." Lu Yan originally thought that she would give up the idea because she never found a chance to take action.
Lin Xi once again withdrew his hand from the other party's hand.
"I have been planning for a long time. If you have other plans, I don't blame you."
Lin Xi walked over and took out an envelope from the drawer of the dressing table.
"There is some money here, but not much, just a thousand taels. I know you can live a good life on your own, and you don't need a lot of money. If I die, you can't be like Feng Ye's beastly father, who immediately passes the filial piety period. Just marry me, how shameless I am. At least..."
After a pause, Lin Xi said solemnly: "You have to wait at least two years after the filial piety period is over before you can marry another woman. That means don't wait four years."
Lu Yan looked at her and said nothing.
You said I want to marry someone else, who should I marry?
Lu Yan was used to being alone. Before meeting Lin Xi and falling in love with this person, he had never thought about sharing his life and the fruits of his future victories with a woman.
I feel disdain in my heart, why do I think so? No one is qualified to stand with him.
Naturally, he never thought about what kind of person he would fall in love with, not even a vague outline. In his opinion at the time, this was a boring thing.
It wasn't until Lin Xi appeared that the blank spaces were filled bit by bit.
It's not about what kind of person he will like, but he will only like her.
He really hates having close relationships with other people, and if it's not her, forget it.
In his world, there has always been no distinction between men and women, animals and humans.
There are only two categories, useful and useless.
Or to be precise about people, there are three categories: killing, no need to kill, and no need to kill.
Lu Yan wears a mask all year round and looks gentle and polite, but in fact he hates most people in the world, including himself sometimes.
To put it bluntly, I just think she is very good.
I can't tell you what's good about it, but regardless of appearance, personality, or some minor shortcomings in ordinary people's eyes, it's very satisfactory.
Lu Yan sometimes even wonders if God allowed them to meet in the vast sea of people in order to compensate for the past years.
That's why he couldn't push him away, let alone kill him ruthlessly.
If everything he encountered was just to meet Lin Xi, he wouldn't be able to let go.
In the past, he might have been a heartless person, and it didn't matter to him what others did, but now, she has grown into his heart.
Then he couldn't help himself, from struggling at the beginning to enjoying it now.
Lin Xi: "You speak, otherwise... I will come back to you even if I am a ghost. After all, if you do this, I will lose face as a ghost and will be laughed at by other ghosts."
