For Lin Weiyang, who has already entered the realm of the fifth rank, all grains can actually be regarded as turbid air, but when she saw the pastries held by Lin Yuan with two fingers, she couldn't help but become greedy.
She walked towards Lin Yuan, and it was not difficult to see that her seemingly steady pace was actually a little hasty.
Pretending to be the last bit of reserve, Lin Weiyang smoothed the robe behind her, and then sat down next to her little brother.
The faint fragrance of hanging flowers drifted to Lin Weiyang's side. She slightly arched her tall nose and sniffed a few times. When she smelled the sweet smell, she took a bite of the pastry in Lin Yuan's hand without the style of a householder. Bite away.
Chewing the soft pastry, Lin Weiyang glanced at the room where she usually bathed, and found that it was brightly lit, so she vaguely said to Lin Yuan: "There...is Miss Mo inside... "
Lin Yuan chuckled, nodded, and brought another piece of cake to Lin Weiyang's mouth.
A soft snort came from the tip of his nose, Lin Weiyang opened his mouth and swallowed it again, saying: "Lending my room to others without authorization... Bribing me with sweet-scented osmanthus cake..."
Afraid that the cake was a little dry, Lin Weiyang patted her chest repeatedly until she swallowed it completely, then took a deep breath and turned to look at Lin Yuan.
Seeing Lin Yuan's worries on his face, Lin Weiyang pursed his lips, held his cheeks in his hands, and asked: "Is it because you are calling me back so anxiously because of what Lei Ming said to you today?"
Lin Yuan was not surprised at all when Lin Weiyang said it right. He tilted his head and looked at his sister beside him.
Under the bright white moonlight, Lin Weiyang's angry look with bulging cheeks also looked very delicate.
Lin Yuan didn't know where he got the courage, so he directly squeezed it, causing Lin Weiyang to slap him.
He accepted Lin Weiyang's "offensive" with a faint smile. Seeing that the fuss was almost over, he took Lin Weiyang's wrist and handed the plate of snacks to her hand.
Following the example of a puppy's vicious bared teeth, Lin Weiyang gave Lin Yuan a "ferocious" blow, then picked up the pastry and put it into his mouth, biting it hard, as if he thought the pastry was Lin Yuan.
As the saying goes, eating people has short mouths, and taking people has short hands. Lin Weiyang knew this truth well and said, "Tell me, what do you want to ask me? Is it about Liu Mansion?"
Lin Yuan was a little surprised. He thought he was going to deal with Lin Weiyang first, but he didn't expect that he would go straight to the topic as soon as he got up, as if he had read through his mind.
Seeing Lin Yuan nodding stupidly, Lin Weiyang raised the corners of her mouth proudly and said: "You said you are serious. If you want to know, just ask me directly. Why are you embarrassed to speak with my sister?"
"How did you know..." Lin Yuan was dumbfounded.
Lin Weiyang smiled like a little fox, and she said: "You can sit at the door of the kitchen like a fool at noon, and you can go to Uncle Wu to complain, can't you just come and ask me directly?"
Looking at Lin Weiyang awkwardly, Lin Yuan did not expect that Lin Weiyang would listen to the conversation with Uncle Wu at noon. It seemed that she had been hiding in some nook and corner and eavesdropped.
In order to relieve his embarrassment, Lin Yuan reached out to the cake in his sister's arms, but before he could get it, he asked Lin Weiyang to slap him away. He looked at his sister who was protecting the food with an aggrieved look, and sighed: "With the sweet-scented osmanthus cake, I don't even want my brother anymore, alas..."
Knowing that Lin Yuan was being miserable, Lin Weiyang glared at him disdainfully and said, "Stop being poor and tell me, what do you want to know?"
Rubbing the back of his hot hands, Lin Yuan turned his face and said seriously: "Back then...why did you choose Liu Mansion to attack?"
"They broke your right arm. If I don't destroy it, who will they destroy?" Lin Weiyang rolled her eyes and ate a piece of pastry.
Lin Yuan didn't buy it. When he saw the opportunity, he took the plate away and held it in his arms. He said with a wicked smile: "Don't think your brother is easy to cheat. If I'm not satisfied with your answer now, I won't let you eat!"
Looking longingly at the exquisite sweet-scented osmanthus cake on the plate, Lin Weiyang stamped her foot angrily, then lay on her lap like a little girl being bullied, and said reluctantly: "That's right, they bully you, I will definitely do it." I’ll give you justice!”
"What else?" Lin Yuan waved the cake in front of her eyes.
"They are rich and unkind, and they feed the common people. They have long been dissatisfied with the style of the Liu family!" Lin Weiyang's eyes swayed.
However, Lin Yuan was still dissatisfied, and slowly moved the snack away from Lin Weiyang's sight, and put it into his mouth under her gaze.
Cursing Lin Yuan in a low voice, Lin Weiyang straightened her waist and said helplessly: "Okay, okay, it's because someone told me that my father's death is inseparable from the Liu Mansion!"
"Who?" Lin Yuan asked.
But Lin Weiyang didn't answer. She looked arrogant, but her eyes kept drifting to the golden pastry. It wasn't until Lin Yuan fed her another piece that she said with satisfaction: "I don't know either... .When I was struggling with how to return to Beiliang Territory and establish myself, someone sent...sent me a letter, which contained the story of the Liu family's evil deeds, and..."
Lin Weiyang seemed to be choking. Upon seeing this, Lin Yuan hurriedly got up and poured a glass of water out. As a result, he saw Lin Weiyang who seemed to be fine, holding the cake and eating non-stop.
Sitting down again with a dark face, Lin Yuan took a gloomy sip of water. He still couldn't understand that his sister didn't even look down on the delicacies of the mountains and seas, but she regarded the osmanthus cake as a treasure.
After Lin Weiyang finished the whole plate of pastries, she took the cup from Lin Yuan's hand and drank heavily. After drinking, she burped with satisfaction.
After eating enough, Lin Yuan stared at Lin Weiyang and said, "What else is there?"
Lin Weiyang touched her slightly bulging belly and took out a neatly folded piece of letterhead with her other hand, as if by magic, and handed it directly to Lin Yuan.
"What is this?" Lin Yuan asked as he opened the letter.
Putting his hands on the ground, Lin Weiyang looked up at the starry sky and slowly said: "The contract for Liu Mansion to hire a killer..."
Lin Yuan frowned, and he quickly opened the deed. Before he could read it carefully, he heard Lin Weiyang say:
"No need to read it, the signature is indeed that old bastard's handwriting."
"Back then, I went to Liu's house and placed this deed in front of him. In order to save his son's life, the old bastard confessed everything."
"He learned that his father could not bear the oppression of the people of Beiliang and planned to introduce the royal family to Beiliang, so he spent a lot of money to hire a group of top killers to intercept and kill his father."
"He is used to being domineering, so he naturally refuses to be disciplined and restrained by the royal family. Although he cannot afford to offend the royal family, as long as he blocks his father, the royal family will naturally not be able to enter Beiliang smoothly."
"After all, the foundation of the Northern Jin Dynasty is to 'treat others with kindness and peace as the most precious thing'. If the forces in Northern Liang do not agree with their intervention, then the royal family will naturally not be able to break up and use force to take over."
After Lin Weiyang finished explaining, Lin Yuan just put down the deed in his hand. He looked at Lin Weiyang and asked: "Then how did he know the true purpose of his father's going out?"
Lin Weiyang turned to look at her younger brother and said: "I did press him about this. According to what he said, someone stood outside his room in the middle of the night and conveyed the news. He didn't know who this person was."
"Can you guarantee that what he said is true?" Lin Yuan asked.
Biting her thin lips and hesitating for a moment, Lin Weiyang shook her head and said, "I'm not sure, but in that case, in order to protect his son, I don't think that old bastard will lie."
"But on the other hand, in order to protect his son, I have to make up a lie that satisfies you." Lin Yuan said, holding his forehead.
Lin Weiyang also nodded in agreement and said: "I think so too, so..."
At this moment, the two of them heard a squeaking sound on the door, and neither of them looked away.
"Since you can't tell the truth from the lie, it's better to confirm that he is telling the truth."
This sound is like the sound of clear spring flowing in the mountains, both ethereal and crisp.
The person who stepped out of the room was a girl in a skirt, with a thin white gauze over her skirt. This woman's facial features are delicate and beautiful. Even if she doesn't wear makeup, she is worthy of the title of "the beauty of the country and the sky." Her skin color is like fine white jade. It is so perfect that you can't take your eyes away. Her long black and smooth hair is still stained. With a lot of water drops on her hair, she used a hair tie to simply tie it at the end of her hair, then wrapped it around the side of her fair neck and put it casually in front of her body.
The girl walked out of the room, crossed her hands and squatted slightly, and gave the two of them a "Happy Ceremony".
Lin Yuan's eyes widened when he saw it. Is this still the sloppy little maid from before?
Lin Weiyang's eyes were also filled with astonishment. If it was just about looks, the two of them were equally matched. Lin Weiyang even had an advantage, but in her eyes, there was a bit of envy.
Being stared at so directly by them, especially Lin Yuan, two red clouds rose up shyly on our girl Mo's face, and she nervously combed her wet hair with her little hands.
Lin Weiyang, who was the first to recover, saw that his younger brother was silent, so he looked over curiously. Sure enough, this silly boy was still staring at the girl.
Lin Weiyang gritted her teeth and stretched her hand to Lin Yuan's waist, pinched it with two fingers and twisted it hard.
"Hiss!" Lin Yuan finally recovered. His eyes were as big as bells, and he didn't know why his sister wanted to pinch him.
"Is Miss Mo good-looking?" Lin Weiyang asked angrily, adding more strength to her hands.
No matter how stupid Lin Yuan was, he still smelled the strong smell of vinegar in the air. He said with a flattering smile: "Sister, you are the most beautiful. I am not surprised. Who would have thought that a little beggar like that before?" She is a graceful and graceful beauty..."
"You're beautiful, aren't you?" Lin Weiyang became even more angry and slapped Lin Yuan on the back.
While the two siblings were fighting, the girl surnamed Mo had already walked up to them on lotus steps.
"Master Lin, I haven't officially thanked you for saving my life. Qingcheng would like to thank Master Lin here." She thanked Lin in a gentle tone, and the girl bowed to Lin Weiyang again.
After stopping the fight, Lin Weiyang stood up and walked around the girl in the white dress, saying, "The girl is really beautiful, and this dress fits her very well!"
Although he praised the girl in front of him, Lin Weiyang stared at Lin Yuan who was scratching his face unkindly.
"Ahem...Uncle Wu bought it...not me." Lin Yuan did not dare to look at his sister and explained with erratic eyes.
Obviously, Lin Weiyang did not accept his excuse, but in an instant he put on a smiling face, took the girl's little hand and said: "I heard what you just said, your name is 'Qingcheng'?"
The girl nodded and said, "This is the name my mother gave me."
Lin Yuan recited her name silently, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "It seems that your mother's wish has come true!"
Such beauty is enough to captivate a city!
Mo Qingcheng blushed and said to Lin Weiyang on the side: "I just heard what the two of you were talking about and said it rashly. I hope the Lin family doesn't mind."
"It doesn't matter, you didn't mean to hear it, did you, Xiao! Yuan!" Lin Weiyang called Lin Yuan dissatisfied.
The sound of "Xiao Yuan" made Lin Yuan, who was sitting on the steps, shiver all over, and he had no choice but to echo it.
With a smile on Mo Qingcheng's thin face, she said, "I think that person should have given more than this little information in order to reassure the Lin family leader."
Lin Weiyang looked at the girl in front of her in surprise and said, "Yes, that old bastard also told me something."
"It should be another person he knows who may have harmed your daughter." The speculation from Mo Qingcheng's red lips won Lin Weiyang's appreciative gaze and Lin Yuan's expression of disbelief.
It is not easy for a young girl of fourteen or fifteen years old to have such a mind. It can be seen that Mo Qingcheng is not only attractive in appearance, but also has an exquisite mind.
"Indeed, according to what he said, there is another family in Beiliang Region that may be related to the murder of his father." Lin Weiyang said.
After a while of silence, just when Lin Weiyang was about to tell the news he heard that year, Lin Yuan behind him suddenly spoke.
"I think he is talking about Lei Mansion."
Lin Weiyang was not surprised at all about her brother's head. She turned around and looked at Lin Yuan, but Mo Qingcheng shrank her body behind Lin Weiyang like a frightened rabbit, not daring to look directly at Lin Yuan.
"Among the forces in Beiliang, Lei Mansion has been the leader for decades. If there is anyone who least wants the royal family to intervene, it must be Lei Mansion."
Looking at Lin Weiyang's expression, Lin Yuan was right.
"Actually, that's not all. The old bastard said that Lei Mansion also hired a group of killers, and the people he hired all came from the same force."
"Plump, fairy, building."
After Lin Weiyang finished speaking, Mo Qingcheng, who was hiding behind her, poked half of his head out and asked: "The Falling Immortal Tower, one of the three major intelligence dealers in Northern Jin Dynasty?"
Lin Yuan had also heard of this name. It seemed that if he wanted to know more about the Falling Immortal Tower, the old man couldn't afford to miss this meal.
Lin Yuan already knew everything he wanted to know. He stood up and patted the dust on his butt before walking to Lin Weiyang.
"Sister, it's getting late. Let's arrange a place for Miss Mo. It's not suitable for her to live with the servants anymore," Lin Yuan said.
Rolling her eyes at her younger brother, Lin Weiyang replied angrily: "You have to say! Qingcheng will make do with me for one night today, and we will make plans tomorrow."
Lin Yuan rubbed his hands and said with a flattering smile, "What should I do?"
Glancing at Lin Yuan with a smile in her eyes, Lin Weiyang pulled Mo Qingcheng towards the room. When she entered the room, she said to Lin Yuan: "You and Sanli squeeze in! Your courtyard hasn't been repaired yet."
After saying that, Lin Weiyang was about to close the door. At this time, a small white hand came out from Lin Weiyang's waist and stopped her from closing the door.
Mo Qingcheng finally turned her attention to Lin Yuan, and she asked softly: "Mr. Lin, don't you have anything to ask me?"
Lin Yuan, who had already turned around to leave, turned around, looked at the pretty girl and said, "It's getting late today, so you should rest early. If you want to know those things, you will tell us naturally."
After saying that, Lin Yuan walked out of the courtyard with a sad face, not forgetting to close the door.
Lin Yuan disappeared, and Mo Qingcheng looked at Lin Weiyang, who was a head taller than her.
Understanding what she meant, Lin Weiyang touched her head as if she were her own sister, and said, "Don't think too much, just stay in peace, that brat Xiao Yuan won't do anything to make you suffer."
Feeling the warmth coming from the top of her head, Mo Qingcheng's eyes welled up with crystal tears for some reason. She showed an innocent smile and said:
"Thanks......"
