Zhou Miaotong looked into his eyes and said, "Why did you help me redeem my life?"
This question was a bit confusing, but Lin Yue knew what she meant. She wanted to say that she had never served him when he was in Nuanxiang Pavilion. The day he went to find the Madam with the pardon document from the Ministry of Punishment was the first time the two met. It didn't make sense. It doesn't make sense for her to do so much.
"Do you still remember when you were 12 years old, the Zhou family was ransacked by the Jin Yiwei, your family was either killed or exiled, and you were sent to the Jiaofang Division?"
Zhou Miaotong nodded, the light of the oil lamp swaying in her pupils, making her eye circles a little red.
"There were a lot of people outside watching the excitement. At that time, you probably wouldn't have noticed that there was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy in the crowd."
"At that time...you were there?"
Lin Yue nodded: "At that time, I was thinking about how to rescue you from the Jin Yiwei."
He paused for a moment and sighed heavily: "It's a pity that my family is so poor that I can only think about it."
Zhou Miaotong looked at the "man" in front of her with a confused look on her face. There was a bit of disbelief and embarrassment in her eyes. How could she not hear the implication of Lin Yue's words - he liked her as early as four years ago. she.
"You...you entered the palace...could it be..."
Lin Yue glanced at her, put down the cup, picked up the round hat and put it on, then turned and walked out of the house.
Zhou Miaotong looked steadily at the door with a slight gap left, his expression was complicated, and there seemed to be pain in his eyes.
…
This is of course not true. When Zhou's home was confiscated, he was racking his brains to think about a problem - how to cut a hole in the neighbor's outer wall that would not be discovered, so that he could peek at people younger than him. Two-year-old Xing'er was taking a bath. Zhou Miaotong and Zhou Miaoxuan were completely from another world.
What does Lin Yue do? How good is he as an actor? In terms of his ability to put on pretense and flirt with girls, he is definitely second to none and very few can match him. In Xiuchundao I, Zhou Miaotong has his heart, and he doesn't want to use force, so he might as well take advantage of the period when his younger brother is still young and use emotional means to win her over. With the knowledge of ancient women, she can see through and resist his intentions. It's weird to have a tenderness offensive, let alone [Master Nai Killer LV2] to help.
As for Yan Bin, when the opportunity comes, just step in and save him from imprisonment.
A quarter of an hour later, Lin Yue arrived outside Shen Lian's residence.
After another quarter of an hour, the courtyard door opened. Shen Baihu looked around and walked out of the city.
Lin Yue activated [Stealth LV2] and stayed far behind, following all the way to Yunqi Slope of Xishan Mountain, and witnessed with his own eyes the battle and negotiation process between Ding Baiying and Shen Lian.
Well, Ding Baiying’s sword-drawing technique is very cool, I really want to learn it.
What’s interesting is that before agreeing to help burn the Jinyiwei case documents library, Shen Lian asked if the person hiding on the roof when Fang Beizhai left was her. Ding Baiying didn’t say yes or no.
Things actually returned to the plot of the movie, and Lin Yue was quite helpless about this.
Speaking of which, I can understand the thoughts of Ding Baiying and others. They were really depressed because they did not kill Guo Zhen in Jinling Tower. But from Guo Zhen's point of view, I am afraid that he would not dare to return to the capital again, because now not only King Xin wanted to kill him. If Wei Zhongxian knew that he was the person directly responsible for the case of Xizong falling into the water, it would not be a matter of his head falling off and a scar as big as a bowl, but a matter of hundreds of people. So the best countermeasure is to leave BJ. The further you go, the better.
But now the case of Pei Lun, a hundred households in Fusi, Nanzhen, and Lin Sancha, the eunuch of Dongchang, Ling Yunkai, has been traced to Guo Zhen, and it was also discovered that he was involved with Mr. Beizhai. Over there, Wei Zhongxian also noticed that something was wrong and sent someone to seal him off. Jin Yiwei's record library, if the treasure ship construction supervision minutes fall into the hands of someone from the East Factory, things will be very serious.
That's why she threatened Shen Lian with letting Beizhai go and forced him to burn the Jinyiwei case library.
As the saying goes, it is difficult to guard against house thieves day and night.
It was obviously easier for Lu Wenzhao to burn the case documents library.
Lin Yue looked at the direction Shen Lian left and sneered.
"Chess pieces, chess pieces..."
Shen Lian is the chess piece of Lu Wenzhao and Ding Baiyang, and Lu Wenzhao and Ding Baiyang are the chess pieces of Xin Wang Zhu Youjian. Wei Zhongxian wanted to turn Xin Wang Zhu Youjian into a chess piece, but he overturned.
…
The next morning.
Outside the gate of Jin Yiwei's case library.
Boss Zheng looked displeased: "The factory official ordered me to come to inspect the shipbuilding documents of the internal officials. Who do you think you are? If you dare to come here to talk nonsense, get out, get out now."
Lin Yue said: "Master Zheng, everyone is a colleague. It's not good to talk like this."
"Who is your colleague?" Boss Zheng did not shy away from Lin Yue and his subordinates: "Go to the Dongchang Yamen and find out who would treat a dog-like thing like you as a colleague."
The staff of the East Factory are organized from bottom to top, including the sergeant, sergeant, housekeeper, foreman, supervisor, responsible for the punishment of hundreds of households, and the punishment of thousands of households.
This guy named Lin San went from being an internal official to a long-term follower by virtue of his ability to flatter others, and he suddenly became the boss of the East Factory.
What is the concept of being in charge? It seems to be equivalent to the Deputy Baihu of Jinyiwei, but because it belongs to the Dongchang system, even the adults of Qianhu in Jinyiwei have to be polite to them.
There are only a few seats for the foreman, and now that one is occupied by him, the old man in the East Factory will of course be very unhappy.
Lin Yue narrowed his eyes: "I heard that Master Zheng is one of the top masters in the East Factory. I wonder who has stronger kung fu between you and Eunuch Zhao."
Boss Zheng frowned. Everyone knew that he was Zhao Jingzhong's man. What did Lin San mean by this?
"Ah, Commander Zheng, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Lu is late."
At the sound of the sound, Lu Wenzhao trotted closer to the two of them: "Who is this?"
Master Zheng glanced at Lin Yue but said nothing.
"I'm Lin San, and I'm in charge of the East Factory."
Lu Wenzhao cupped his hands and said, "Oh, it's Lin Zhangban."
Ha~bah...
Commander Zheng spat on the ground and led his people inside.
Lu Wenzhao turned a blind eye to this scene: "Is Captain Lin also here to check the shipbuilding documents of the internal officials?"
Lin Yue nodded.
"Ahead is the document warehouse, please follow me." Lu Wenzhao thought he knew why the two bosses of Dongchang were at odds with each other.
After entering the door, he looked up and saw Shen Lian arguing with the guard at the door.
Lu Wenzhao hurriedly walked over to separate the two parties. Boss Zheng mocked Jin Yiwei a few times, glared at Shen Lian fiercely, and took the key to open the door.
Lin Yue did not follow. He looked at Shen Lian who was standing at the door and said angrily, "Shen Baihu, I heard that you are very close to Master Jinghai."
"What does Captain Lin mean by saying this?"
"It's not interesting. I just wanted to ask Shen Baihu if he likes calligraphy and painting for Pei Baihu. He forgot to ask yesterday."
"Captain Lin, if we have nothing else to do, I will go back with Shen Baihu first. The Yamen is going to issue a notice for the arrest of Beizhai. As for the prisoner's figure and appearance, Shen Lian has to provide it." Lu Wenzhao saw Lin Yue running towards Shen Lian. After practicing, he quickly took the person outside to prevent this guy from getting into trouble with the people in Dongchang.
"Oh, it's getting late. I have to go to Pei Baihu's appointment." Lin Yue raised his head and glanced at the sun, and ordered his two subordinates: "The documents of the Internal Affairs Bureau will be handed over to the people in charge of Zheng today. You The two of you go in and look for information about the Battle of Salhu eight years ago. Mark the location and wait for me to check it out tomorrow."
"Yes." The two officers responded.
At the same time, Lu Wenzhao, who was walking to the door, stopped and glanced at Lin Yue's back with a complicated expression.
…
In the afternoon.
Yongan Temple.
Pei Lun put down the bowl of vegetarian food, took out the cigarette rod, lit it and took two puffs.
"Tell me, who did Hokusai give all of his paintings to?"
Across the way, Master Jinghai looked at Pei Lun and then at the manager of Dongchang Manris Tiaoyongzhai, knowing that something serious was going on.
"There are so many pilgrims coming to the temple to give alms, and the young monk can't remember who he gave it to."
Pei Lun squinted his eyes and looked at Lin Yue, who was immersed in the sun.
"Hokusai is a traitor to Donglin. I need to know who has collected his paintings."
"Sir, calligraphy and painting are just calligraphy and painting. Besides, the pilgrims who come to the temple to give alms are all good people."
The flag official next to Pei Lun who was taking notes glanced at him and wrote on the case report: "Monk Jinghai said that those who accepted Donglin's anti-party calligraphy and paintings were all good people."
As soon as he finished speaking, Monk Jinghai's expression changed, and beads of sweat oozed from his forehead as big as peas.
"Your words have ruined Master Jinghai's half-life practice." Pei Lun took the case, tore off the page with a sneer, looked at the frightened monk and said, "Tell me, who accepted Bei Zhai’s calligraphy and painting?”
"..."
When he was young, Pei Lun stood up and said, "Come on, please invite Master Jinghai to stay in Zhao Prison for a while."
Monk Jinghai's face was so white that no trace of blood could be seen: "Sir...sir..."
The two Tiqi were about to frighten the limp monk Jinghai. Lin Yue stood up and stopped the Tiqi's movements: "Wait a minute. Before that, I would like to invite Master Jinghai to the East Factory for a cup of tea. Brother Pei? Give me your opinion.”
