Seeing the days passing by, Yin Tianxun couldn't help but feel sentimental.
There is still no clue about the two tasks assigned by my father.
Because Tianji's matter involves Ah Zai, Yin Tianxun must be more careful. He must find out the truth and then decide what to do.
As for finding Su Qingwan, it gave him a headache.
The world is vast, where on earth is he going to find her?
Besides, who can guarantee that Su Qingwan is still alive!
He had already seen the jade pendant. Lin Sheng said that it was given to her father by a prisoner. Presumably the prisoner was Mrs. Su.
It's a pity that she died early.
The only person he knew who might be related to Su Qingwan was Lin Sheng's father, but Lin Sheng said that since the fire, her father had never seen the girl again.
What's worse is that Lin Sheng's father is no longer here, and all the clues are suddenly lost. Yintian Xunzhen doesn't know where to start.
The third brother also didn't have any new news. Moreover, the third brother was busy with the military every day. Yin Tianxun didn't want these things to bother him anymore.
Originally, he could just deal with the matter and just find any excuse to say that he couldn't find anyone. Anyway, his father would not scold her, because he also knew that looking for Su Qingwan was like looking for a needle in a haystack, with little hope.
But Yin Tianxun couldn't bear to deceive his father, and he couldn't bear to see his father disappointed.
"What are you thinking about?"
When Yin Tianxun saw it was Ah Zai, he immediately became energetic and said, "I'm thinking about the future."
"What's next?"
"Yes," Yin Tianxun sighed, "I still have to go back after all."
She even forgot.
Yes, he will always go back to the Central Plains.
Lin Zai is getting used to Yin Tianxun's company, and she is willing to put aside her grudges and become good friends with Yin Tianxun.
But for so long, she actually forgot that Yin Tianxun did not belong to the Western Region.
Yin Tian looked at Lin Zai, as if expecting something, "After finishing the work, I will return to the Central Plains."
"Well, it's been a long time since you came out." Lin Zai pretended not to care.
"Yes, this is my first time traveling far away. My mother-in-law must miss me very much!" Yin Tianxun said with emotion.
"You also miss Concubine Sun, right?"
Yin Tianxun nodded, "The mother-in-law is very nice, Ah Zai, I think she will like you very much."
Lin Zai pretended not to understand, "Concubine Sun has a noble status, and our status is very different. There will be no chance to get to know each other. Besides, I just want to keep my peace and be an ordinary person."
Yin Tianxun naturally understood what Lin Zai wanted to express. Anyway, she had rejected him many times, openly or secretly.
"Ah Zai, do you want me to go back?"
Lin Zai smiled slightly, "It doesn't matter what I think. You are the prince, the palace is your home, and you have to go back sooner or later."
"No!" Yin Tianxun did not hide his emotions at all, he said firmly: "Your thoughts are very important to me!"
Lin Zai didn't dare to look directly into the other person's eyes. She thought about it and said slowly: "I don't know, really."
"Okay!" Yin Tianxun stopped asking.
Although this was not the answer she longed to hear, it was better not to know than to say that she hoped she could return to Beijing.
"Are you really not going to the capital?" Yin Tianxun continued to ask with a hint of expectation.
"The Western Region is my home." Lin Zai saw Yin Tianxun looking lonely. For some reason, she added, "If I have a chance, I will go to the capital to see you."
Yin Tianxun was overjoyed. He suddenly remembered something and his energy suddenly brightened.
Yin Tianxun looked at Lin Zai with bright eyes, "I'm so stupid. Why did I just think of such a simple thing now? It doesn't matter if you don't want to leave the Western Territory. When I return to Beijing, I will ask my father to arrange for me to be in the Western Territory." "
Lin Zai was shocked.
Yin Tianxun continued to say excitedly: "Now I feel that there is nothing good in the capital. Besides, I can only be an idle prince if I stay there. In this case, it is better to come to the West to help General Li and you, so that I can do more for you." Do something practical.”
"You just did it on a whim, in the heat of the moment."
Compared with Yin Tianxun's excitement, Lin Zai seemed particularly calm.
"It's not impulsive. Why don't you believe me?" Yin Tianxun felt aggrieved.
"The conditions in the Western Region are difficult and not as good as those in the capital."
"I know!"
"You won't get used to it."
"I will!"
"Your family is all in the capital."
"I can go back and visit them from time to time."
"Why bother?"
"I enjoy it as much as I can eat it." Yin Tianxun said affectionately.
A ripple suddenly appeared in Lin's already silent inner lake.
"I plan to go to Shuangshui Village, do you want to come with me?" Lin Zai suddenly asked.
She originally wanted to go there directly, but she saw Yin Tianxun when she came out, so she was delayed.
Lin Zaizhen was used to being alone, so he didn't expect her to ask this question.
"Of course!" Yin Tianxun was afraid that Lin Zai would regret it, so he immediately replied.
Along the way, Yintian couldn't stop having fun. Although Ah Zai still didn't speak much, he could feel that the distance between the two of them was getting closer.
"Azai, why is it so noisy there? Did something happen?" Yin Tianxun asked, pointing to a place.
Lin Zai also noticed it. She looked in that direction and frowned.
On the road to Shuangshui Village, there is a simple little teahouse. If someone is tired from the journey, he can go in and take a rest.
But now this extremely inconspicuous place suddenly became lively.
I saw several people gathered around in an aggressive manner, punching, kicking and swearing.
There was a man sitting on a chair very close to them. He crossed his arms and crossed his legs, watching all this with interest.
After seeing the man, Lin Zai clenched his fists to hold back the anger in his heart.
Yin Tianxun felt something strange about Ah Zai, and he asked uncertainly: "Do you know him?"
"Do you still remember the Liu family I talked about before?" Lin Zai asked coldly.
Yin Tianxun nodded.
He had always kept the Liu family's affairs in mind, and he would definitely tell his uncle about it when he returned to the capital.
"The person sitting there is the young master of the Liu family, Liu Yao."
After Lin finished speaking, he walked towards Liu Yao and asked, "Mr. Liu, what are you doing?"
When Liu Yao heard Lin Zai's voice, he immediately stood up and said with a smile, "Miss Lin is also here. What a coincidence."
Of course he didn't know how annoying he was. Lin Zai tried his best to restrain his inner disgust, "What are they doing?"
"Nothing." Liu Yao replied immediately.
He knew that Lin Zai didn't like this kind of behavior, so he quickly asked those people to stop.
Only then did Lin Zai clearly see the appearance of the people on the ground.
The person who was beaten was none other than Chen Tiezhu. His face was swollen and many scars could be seen on his body.
Yin Tianxun also came over. When he saw it was Chen Tiezhu, he quickly squatted down and carefully checked his injuries.
"Brother Chen, are you okay?" Yin Tianxun asked worriedly.
Chen Tiezhu shook his head hard and said with a trembling voice: "I'm fine."
Yin Tianxun couldn't suppress the anger in his heart. He stood up suddenly and strode towards Liu Yao.
But Ah Zai suddenly grabbed her, and she shook her head gently, signaling not to act rashly.
Yin Tianxun had no choice but to stop.
Liu Yao had seen Yin Tianxun a long time ago. This should be the boy Chen Fei was talking about.
He said disdainfully: "Miss Lin, is this your friend?"
Lin Zai nodded.
"It seems you have a good relationship?" Liu Yao said in a strange tone.
"Mr. Liu, this man on the ground is my friend. Can you please let him go for my sake?"
"Oh?" Liu Yao deliberately prolonged his tone, "So he is Miss Lin's friend! You people really have no eyesight, why don't you help him up quickly," Liu Yao ordered in a pretentious manner.
Those who had punched and kicked Chen Tiezhu not long ago immediately changed their faces. They quickly helped Chen Tiezhu up, completely losing their arrogance.
Chen Tiezhu wanted to refuse their help, but he had no strength to resist.
"Ms. Lin, why don't we take him to see the doctor together?"
"No!" Lin Zai immediately refused.
"Just leave them to me." Lin Zai glared at the group of servants.
The men of the Liu family looked at the young master, waiting for his orders.
Liu Yao winked and they understood immediately.
"I thought this person was up to no good, so I wanted to teach him a lesson. Now it seems it was all a misunderstanding. Miss Lin, I'm really sorry for hurting your friend by mistake." Liu Yao said, but there was no trace of apology on his face. .
"Mr. Liu, I still have business to do." Lin Zai said expressionlessly.
"Okay, then I won't disturb you from doing your business!" Liu Yao deliberately emphasized the word 'business', "I'm going back to the city too. I'll apologize to you when I get a chance."
After saying that, Liu Yao led those people away. The moment he turned around, the smile on his face immediately disappeared.
You Lin Zai, you pretend to be noble in front of me. One day, I will make you look good!
Neither you nor that man will end well.
Liu Yao made up his mind.
~~~
Chen Tiezhu looked at Lin Zai and Yin Tianxun gratefully, and said in a weak voice: "Miss Lin, Mr. Sun, thank you, thank you, otherwise..."
Lin Zai asked with concern: "Brother Chen, why did they beat you?"
It turns out that the owner of this small teahouse, Da Zhou, is Chen Tiezhu's good brother. He and his old father depend on each other and can barely survive by guarding this small place and earning some meager income.
Unexpectedly, just now, Father Zhou's mouth suddenly became crooked and he collapsed to the ground. He could not move at all and could not speak.
Da Zhou was so scared that he didn't know what to do. Fortunately, Chen Tiezhu was here to help.
He asked Da Zhou to quickly go to the city to find the doctor, while he stayed here to guard Zhou's father.
Unfortunately, these people suddenly appeared. They were shouting outside. Chen Tiezhu was afraid of affecting Father Zhou, so he hurried out to check the situation.
That Liu Yao insisted on entering the room for a cup of tea, so Chen Tiezhu had no choice but to explain what was going on inside. After that, he kept pleading: "There are really patients inside. You just have to be aggrieved and rest outside for a while. I will bring you a table and pour tea." , I won’t accept any more money, so just do it.”
Liu Yao naturally refused and asked his servants to teach Chen Tiezhu a lesson.
No matter how brave he is, he can't stop so many people by himself.
"They went too far!" Yin Tianxun said angrily.
Lin Zai was also very angry, but she was more rational than Yin Tianxun.
"Help Brother Chen in first. Father Zhou is also inside. Let's go see him quickly. We'll talk about other things later."
Yin Tianxun nodded.
Father Zhou's condition still hasn't improved. None of them know medical skills, so they can only wait anxiously for Zhou to come back.
After Chen Tiezhu sat down, Lin Zai asked worriedly: "Brother Chen, are your injuries okay?"
"It's okay!" Chen Tiezhu said bravely, "This little skin injury doesn't matter, Miss Lin, don't worry."
He couldn't help but grin as he spoke.
It's a lie that it doesn't hurt, but he is a rough man and has been used to suffering since he was a child. This pain is nothing to him.
You can get through it if you endure it!
Lin Zai knew that Chen Tiezhu was holding on, and she couldn't bear it and began to blame herself.
The Liu family is domineering, but she still has to tolerate everything. Although everything is based on the overall situation, she is really unwilling to do so.
She wouldn't let this go on for long.
must!
