Capture the Jade - Chapter 125.1

You have repeatedly broken my business. I worked hard to set up a plan to deal with Zhuang Mu, one of the Peng family’s eyeliners in Chang’an, but you found out on the spot that Zhuang Mu was framed. I tried my best to restrain Song Jian and Zheng Pushe, but you found out that Shitai Jingchen was the Haoyue Sanren back then. I managed to get hold of Wu Qi, who was determined to be a crown princess, but you used her to set a trap to capture Lu Zhaoan and Wang Li. I plan carefully, you are pressing step by step. If it weren’t for repeated twists and turns, I wouldn’t have to lose my troops and generals again and again; if I wasn’t afraid of accidents, why would I need to use the evil spirit between heaven and earth to make a fuss? ”

Lin Chengyou suddenly laughed piercingly: “Speaking of Wu Qi, I almost forgot, you have no last resort, not even our marriage. You should know how Aqi treats you, but in order to control the East Palace in the future, you know that Wu Qi is ambitious and wants to help her become a crown princess. That day you suddenly mentioned the matter of getting a wife in front of the imperial court, to force me to ask for Teng Yuyi as soon as possible?”

In the face of Lin Chengyou’s pressing question, the Prince of Chun’an put his hands behind his back and raised his head, with a calm and unashamed expression, as if he was chatting with Lin Chengyou at home.

“Just think about it.” He turned his head and glanced at Lin Chengyou indifferently, “If we can use a robber to tie down the Chengwangfu and Qingyun Temple on the night of the event, the success will have a better chance of winning, then we are almost certain. Madam Teng has a robbery on her body, so I have to confirm the weight of Madam Teng in your heart. As a result, you tried it out, and you care more about her than I thought.”

Lin Chengyou smiled, the laughter was not only resentful, but also somewhat sad.

“But if I’m not wrong, you originally planned your marriage with Teng Yuyi.”

The air was silent, and the Prince of Chun’an stopped.

“On the night of my birthday, Teng Yuyi went to Zhixu Pavilion in Xiyuan to give me a Ziyu saddle. It happened that you were also nearby, and there was no one around. You met her, and when you left, you kindly reminded her that the sachet was gone. Now, this scene falls in the eyes of others, and it is very easy to be misunderstood. I just take it as a coincidence, but now I think about it, Uncle Huang, you have always been very smart, and you will never come to the truth when you don’t want to be misunderstood, so that night , you did it on purpose, you want me to misunderstand that you have an affair with Mrs. Teng, so I will stop thinking about her from now on.”

The King of Chun’an County said calmly: “I had this idea for a while, for nothing else, just because her father is Teng Shao, if she can successfully marry Teng Yuyi, when I take advantage of the chaos in the future, Teng Shao’s navy will be very good. Could it be used by me. Unfortunately, Mrs. Teng is not easy to handle, and she is also a person who should be robbed. After knowing that she frequently provokes evil spirits, I completely dispelled this idea. Once the well of Yin and Nether is opened, this kind of person who responds will attract evil spirits. The biggest target of things, instead of trying to please her, why not use this to make a fuss?”

Lin Chengyou stabbed in his heart, and laughed ironically again: “Unfortunately, you did all the calculations, but Teng Yuyi made you fall short in the end.”

The figure who jumped into the Well of Yin and Nether was the biggest accident in the entire chess game. The two were silent at the same time. The snow outside the window was gluttonous, and the wind blew the windows. The sound of the wind seemed to be able to swallow everything in the world. When the monsters were in chaos that night, Chang’an City was so dark and dark. After a moment of regret, the Prince of Chun’an sighed, “The most difficult thing to calculate in this world is the human heart…”

This sigh, there is regret, there is melancholy, but there is no regret.

Lin Chengyou’s expression became a little strange. What stood in front of him seemed not to be a living person, but a melting iceberg.

His heart was hurt to the extreme, but instead a sense of absurdity emerged. In order to confirm that this was not a dream, he stretched out his right hand and groped forward.

“You hate my mother-in-law very much?” After a moment’s delay, Lin Chengyou withdrew his hand, turned his head, and confirmed the location of the Prince of Chun’an, “That night, Haoyue San was defeated, and you risked revealing your flaws by dispatching more than 30 secret agents. Wei robbed her of her soul, even for an outsider. It shows that you are not a heartless person, but you are especially ruthless towards your brothers and sisters and saints. I remember that you have been getting along well with them in the past few years. When did you have such a deep hatred for them?”

The Prince of Chun’an was still strolling around in the hall, without any intention of answering.

“For Cui’s?”

As soon as these words came out, Prince Chun’an turned his head as if he had been kicked into a sore spot, showing a mocking look.

“I remember that Mrs. Cui had been imprisoned in the old house in Nancheng. When I was a child, I secretly went to see her out of curiosity, but before I entered the door, my grandfather’s men caught her. After I went back, my grandfather scolded me—”

Prince Chun’an’s eyes turned cold, and he suddenly interrupted Lin Chengyou: “There are too many things you don’t know!”

In a short moment, he was as cold as another person.

“You are Jiaojiao’s son, and I am Muye Weixing. What happened in the past few years, how much do you know?” Chun’an County King sneered, “Speaking of you falling off a horse at the age of seven, you remember that I was injured at the same time as you. , but you probably don’t know that when I was recovering, the only people who came to visit me were your grandfather and mother. Your grandfather, that is, my father, didn’t even look at me from beginning to end. ”

Lin Chengyou’s words were like a sharp blade, cutting through the layers of camouflage that had been wrapped around the prince’s body for many years. He still stood there, but his whole person was like a lake with hidden storms and could no longer maintain the appearance of calm.

He sneered: “You only know that you rarely saw me when you were young, but do you know that when I was two years old, I was thrown into another courtyard by my father? people.

“I was like a trace of shame in my father’s heart, and was thrown away by him. He never came to see me, and he was not allowed to go to Prince Lan’s mansion to greet him. Except for New Years and festivals, I was not allowed to walk outside. You and When the Prince was enlightened and studied in Chongwen Hall, I didn’t even know where the gate of Guozijian was. In order to avoid meeting with me, my father only invited famous teachers to teach me in other schools. At that time, I was young and did not understand why my father I suddenly hated me so much, and when I got older, I realized that all this was because my mother made a mistake. In order to save the face of the royal family, my father refused to let her go, and only kept her in another place for many years. I wanted to visit my mother, But I couldn’t even get in the gate. I went to ask my eldest brother for help, but the eldest brother stood by.”

Having said that, he looked back at Lin Chengyou gloomily: “This is the so-called family relationship? It is lighter than water, colder than ice. From then on, I have known that your father is full of hypocrisy, but he is actually ruthless!”

It’s ironic, the first time he took him to visit his mother were two great villains, Haoyue Sanren and Wen Qing Sanren. In order to avoid the pursuit of the court, they broke into the other courtyard, and they hid for several months. One night after a few months, Xiaomin Lang found their tracks.

Haoyue and Wenqing were surprised at the time, saying that this child had the best ear they had ever seen. How could they know that it was because when he was lonely, he could only tune the piano and have fun. Over time, his ear was naturally much sharper than ordinary people. People in the world say that he is the best in the world for his ability to recognize sounds and break rhythms, but they don’t know how many nights he has spent alone.

“I grew up to be six years old in another courtyard, and it was the first time in my life that I made friends.” The Prince of Chun’an said mockingly, “Wenqing and Haoyue changed their ways to please me in order to survive. They taught me martial arts and Taoism. , and taught me how to hide my martial arts and inner strength in front of others. When I knew that I wanted to see my mother, I took the risk of being discovered and took me over the wall in the middle of the night. People in the world say they are evil people who do all kinds of evil, but in my heart , they are a hundred times more loyal than a ‘good man’ like your father.”

“That’s because they want to use you to take revenge on the saint.” Lin Chengyou said coldly, “Wujimen hurt countless people. They are the most evil people. Without your protection, they would have been arrested long ago.”

“So what?” Prince Chun’an said sharply, “When I was the most lonely, where were those good people? Haoyue is just that, Wenqing lived in my cellar for fifteen years. They never inquired about me. Why do I live alone in another courtyard, and I don’t talk behind my back about whether I’m a ‘trickster’. Only in front of them can I be myself freely. I miss my mother day and night, but no one around me is willing to help me. If it wasn’t for Wen Qing and Hao Yue appearing, maybe I won’t see my mother until she dies.”

Referring to his mother, Prince Chun’an’s expression became bitter and hideous.

Before meeting his mother, his feelings for her were extremely complicated. It is true that he misses her deeply. In the child’s heart, no one in the world can replace the role of mother. Although the mother and son were forced to separate very early, he vaguely remembers how his mother called him “Min Lang” affectionately.

But he also hates her.

He was too young to understand who caused all this. After thinking about it, he could only blame his mother. If the mother hadn’t made a mistake at the beginning, their mother and son would not have been separated.

However, these indescribable complex emotions were all overwhelmed by ecstasy and longing at the moment when I saw my mother.

His mother was so overjoyed that he held him in her arms and wept silently. He sobbed and fell asleep in his mother’s arms for a long time, only to be taken away by Haoyue and Wenqing when it was almost dawn.

When he was older, his mother told him: she did not betray his father and king. All this was framed by the eldest son Lin Xiao. She and the old friend of her family named Zeng Nanqin had only met privately a few times, and there was no secret from beginning to end. Affection. The reason why the father treated him coldly was because he suspected that he was Zeng Nanqin’s illegitimate son. As long as it could be proved that she and Zeng Nanqin had nothing to do with each other, the father would treat him as well as before.

Compared to this, Lin Min hoped that his mother could return to Prince Lan’s mansion, but because of her mother’s words, he began to search for the truth.

“This investigation is nearly ten years. Not to mention that it happened several years ago, and it happened recently. How can you prove that a woman and a man are not selfish? But I firmly believe that my mother will not lie to me again. Sixteen At the age of 19, I became more and more powerful. After Haoyue Sanren replaced Master Jingchen and took over the title of Yuzhennv Guanguan, I had a lot of money in my hand. In cooperation with Wenqing, I secretly raised my own people. That is, this year, I found a survivor of the chaos caused by the jade corpse. This person’s name is Chunqiao, who was imprisoned in the death row of Dali Temple. Who were there, but recognized Zeng Nanqin’s portrait, she said that she heard him say to Jade Corpse that he was a boy, no one dared to lie in front of Jade Corpse, Chunqiao also said that at that time Lin Xiao and Qu Qinyao is also on the mountain, and they can also testify about this.”

Prince Chun’an’s face was gloomy as if it was about to rain: “Until that moment, I didn’t know that my brother and sister-in-law always knew the truth, but in the past few years they not only allowed my father and king to doubt my blood, but also let the full The people in Chang’an said behind my back that I was a ‘treacher who gave birth to a child’. I know that my eldest brother has never liked me very much because of my mother, but even if the king forbade them to come to see me, they would give me food and clothing every three to five or five times. With this care, I have nothing but gratitude and no hatred for them, until I learned the truth, I didn’t know that they were more hypocritical and disgusting than all the monsters in this world!”

On that day, he took all the information he had found and rushed to Prince Lan’s mansion to see his father, who was in bed with a high age, and only waved his hand lightly when he saw all the evidence presented by the younger son.

“Go down.”

Lin Min froze on the side of the bed as if he had been drenched in a basin of cold water. After reading the evidence, why was Lin Min still so indifferent to him?

Immediately afterwards, he heard that his father asked his eldest brother and eldest sister-in-law to enter the house. At that moment, he fully understood that it was because the eldest brother proved that his mother had an affair with Zeng Nanqin, and that his mother fell into the field today.

Xu Shi’s eldest brother recently showed his father more evidence, so his father refused to believe him and his mother. After all, the father is more willing to believe the eldest son’s words than the younger son who has always hated him.

His efforts became a joke.

“Not long after that, my father died of illness. My mother had long since collapsed after being imprisoned for so many years. The reason why she supported so hard was just hoping that one day I would see a turnaround in my situation. I heard that my father would not die until he died. Forgive her, and she passed away in one grief.” Lin Min’s tone was as cold as iron, “You ask me why I am ruthless towards your grandparents, why don’t you ask them why they have no compassion for me? I’ve been stigmatized for a lifetime, and I’ve been in deep trouble, and it’s all thanks to your father!”

Since he was a child, he has excellent ears. No matter where he goes, he can always hear those ladies whispering about him behind his back: “People are good, but it’s a pity that there is such a mother.”

“It’s really hard to say whether it is the flesh and blood of the old prince.”

These words were like poisoned arrows, stabbing into his chest again and again.

“I knew a long time ago that my situation is very different from yours. Your grandfather and mother treated me with kindness on the face, but in fact they were false. Empress Liu keeps saying that she treats us equally, but when it comes time to talk about marriage, what she chooses for you is either the descendants of Wang Zheng and Dengwu, or the daughters of powerful foreigners. The daughter of a foreign nobleman. I have long been disgusted by these hypocrisy and hypocrisy.” Lin Min laughed violently, but the laughter was colder than the wind and snow outside, “No one will stand up and explain everything back then, no one will. Loudly tell the world that my mother never betrayed my father, and I know better than anyone else that I must shut up these people unless I have the final say in Chang’an City! I almost succeeded—”

He looked sharply at Lin Chengyou, and Qing Jun’s face was full of regret.

“So far, what I regret the most is not the defeat, but the fact that so many people died that night, but your mother and father were lucky enough to escape!”

That sinister demeanor made him look like a different person from usual.

In such a huge palace, all I could hear was the rough breathing of the Duke of Chun’an.

In this suffocating silence, Lin Chengyou was silent for a while, then slowly took out a small pouch from his arms and put it on the table: “Before I came, the king asked me to bring these things to you. Top this letter. It was the memorial that your grandfather wrote to ask the saint to make you the ‘King of Chun’an County’. The rest are the embroidery work your mother did and some letters she wrote when she was in the boudoir.”

Lin Min didn’t respond when she heard the first sentence, but she was stunned when she heard the last sentence. She quickly walked to the table, picked it up and unfolded it.

As soon as he saw the words on the letter, a look of shame and consternation flashed across his face.

“Back then, your mother confided her thoughts to her close friend in the letter, saying that she had a long-time admirer in her heart, but it was a pity that the nobleman was too noble and never looked at her directly. Acacia, she did a lot of embroidery work for that Langjun without authorization. She never sent any of these letters, and the embroidery work was all hidden in her boudoir. At that time, your mother and cousin Zeng Nanqin had an appointment, but suddenly there was no reason. He regretted his marriage, and soon married into Prince Lan’s mansion as the daughter of the Cui family. After your mother got married, the more he thought about it, the more annoyed Zeng Nanqin was, so he sneaked into your mother’s boudoir to get back the things he had given her. As a result, he accidentally found these letters and embroidery work, and at that moment he realized that your mother’s willingness to be the successor was not just for the wealth of Prince Lan’s residence, but also for other reasons.”

Lin Min stared at the embroiderers, his clear eyes seemed to ooze blood in an instant. Those embroidered live, without exception, embroidered with the word “effective”.

“My grandfather hates your mother very much, but because he pity you, he told his grandfather the situation of fighting the jade corpse on the mountain that day. The grandfather treated you and your mother coldly, not because he suspected that you were not his son. But for other reasons. In order to clear the relationship between himself and Cui’s family, Zeng Nanqin asked someone to transfer these things to his grandfather in prison. At that moment, his grandfather realized that Cui’s original intention of marrying into Prince Lan’s mansion may be a deep feeling. Shame, before my grandfather passed away, not only was Cui’s mother and son indifferent, but my grandfather was also very alienated. Based on your sensitivity, you should have noticed it at the beginning. ”

“After my grandfather got married, he took my grandmother to live in the Prince’s Mansion, while my grandfather stayed in the Prince Lan’s Mansion all the year round. In order to rarely see my grandpa, my grandfather didn’t even let my grandpa go to the Prince’s Mansion to say goodbye. So I didn’t dare to go to my grandfather. I have been closer to my master since I was a child. My grandfather was as unhappy as your mother and son in his later years. My grandfather was tortured by a demon for a long time, and he didn’t let it go until he died. He deeply regretted that he treated you coldly because of Cui, so he wrote The letter that asked you to make a king for you, said that he was willing to leave all his food and fief to his younger son, and also asked the sage to replace the mansion of Prince Lan’s mansion with a new mansion for you to be king, so you ten At the age of six, he was named the King of Chun’an County, and the food seal far surpassed that of the previous kings of this dynasty. In order to block Youyou’s public, on the day when the decree was promulgated, the uncle and grandpa repeatedly emphasized this in front of the court officials. It was my grandfather’s last wish.”

It’s a pity that Mrs. Cui has been under house arrest for so many years. Those unbearable rumors have already flown all over the city of Chang’an. Just a title can’t change anything. Whether it is Lin Min or the Prince of Chun’an, he can’t avoid these all his life. gossip.

And once the seeds of hatred took root in his heart, the royal family’s remedial actions after the event naturally became hypocritical in Lin Min’s eyes.

After saying these words, the surroundings became extremely quiet. In the hall, something suddenly collapsed. Lin Chengyou couldn’t see anything, so he could only listen and feel quietly.

It was an almost frantic emotion that could be shocked and infected even from a distance.

After being silent for a while, Lin Chengyou got up hesitantly, left the pile of old things on the table, and walked out following the sound.

Suddenly, a “tear” sound came from behind, as if a piece of paper was torn to pieces.

It was followed by another cry, so decisive, so urgent, as if eager to deny something. One after another, it was endless, and it was obvious that the letters and cloth on the table were being ripped apart one by one.

Lin Chengyou only paused for a while, and then continued to walk forward.

The voice came to an abrupt end, and Lin Min’s muffled laughter suddenly sounded from behind. The laughter was strangely twisted, and the madness was unchecked.

In the quiet and spacious hall, the humiliating laughter continued to echo, getting louder and more piercing.

Lin Chengyou couldn’t help but stop.

Lin Min laughed off and on, and squeezed out a word from between her teeth bitterly: “…You lied to me… A-niang… My life… my life… is not worth it!”

Lin Chengyou’s heart froze, love and hate, all of which became empty at this moment. Pushing open the door of the hall, snowflakes rushed towards him, and the surging sound of wind and snow instantly overshadowed the painful and frantic laughter in the hall.

In the vast world, only the snowflakes are as clean as before, Lin Chengyou did not stop, and went straight along
