Chapter 427: ghostly thoughts

Chapter 427 The idea of ​​ghost possession

Lin Jinxiao got up as if nothing had happened, and pulled Chu Nanzhi out.

Chu Nanzhi saw that he was intentionally trying to be angry with Ji Wanying, so she supported him tightly, and said in a calm tone, "Actually, you don't have to be like this."

"what?"

Lin Jinxiao glanced at her with lowered eyebrows, looked at her meaningful eyes, and said with a gentle smile: "Fool, do you think what I just said was just for her?"

Paused, thinking about Chang Yanning, he continued: "I hope you can understand that no matter what happens in the future, you are not allowed to think about it."

"Well, I won't."

Chu Nanzhi raised her eyes and smiled at him, went out together, and helped him into the carriage.

Sang Qi drove the car slowly on the noisy street, and the guards followed the carriage. Having experienced the last assassination, each of them looked around cautiously with bright eyes, full of vigilance.

Today's Luyan Port is a bit of a mess, and there are government arrests everywhere.

Some people cried and scolded their fathers and mothers, while others showed their faces and laughed.

Lin Jinxiao opened a corner of the curtain, and saw the bloated, silk-wrapped evil gentry passing by the carriage being escorted by the sergeants, he couldn't help but feel melancholy.

He is not a murderous cruel official, but for the eternal foundation of the Dahe Empire and for the people to live and work in peace and contentment, he can only choose to offend a small number of people while maintaining the interests of the majority.

Chu Nanzhi leaned in his arms, hearing the intertwined cries and praises coming from the busy city, she raised her small face and looked at Lin Jinxiao who was in deep thought:

"Lin Dalang, as long as you think what is right, go on firmly. I will always be by your side and never leave."

At this time, this is the only thing I can comfort him.

Lin Jinxiao immediately showed joy when he heard this.

If she was just perfunctory just now, this time he could really feel the sincerity in her heart.

Indeed, she has experienced so much with her, so she will naturally be willing to share the joys and sorrows with her.

Lin Jinxiao happily hugged her tightly in his arms, feeling the cozy tenderness.

Thinking that after the canonization ceremony, she will take the little treasures to Beijing, he cherishes the days with her now even more.

When the carriage was about to reach Chongrenfang, a burst of mournful crying came clearly.

Chu Nanzhi opened the curtain of the car curiously, only to see a woman in a yellow shirt being forcibly dragged into a deep alley.

Lin Jinxiao glanced out and recognized that it was the road leading to a casino inside. He vaguely remembered that when he was on duty in the county government, he often met Liu Shuyang gambling in this casino.

Looking at Chu Nanzhi's indignant eyes, Lin Jinxiao sighed deeply: "It must be some gambler who lost money again and can only use his own daughter to pay off the debt. This kind of thing is not uncommon. Where is it?" You can manage it, wait a few days for the promulgation of the ban on gambling and the banning of gambling houses, and see if you can change the corrupt atmosphere of Luyan Port."

At this point, he couldn't help laughing bitterly: "Not everyone can know how to rein in a precipice like Shu Yang. I am afraid that even if the ban on gambling is issued, some people will still flock to it. Contributing to remorse."

Chu Nanzhi nodded approvingly.

How many people have been harmed by gambling from ancient times to the present? Gambling bans have been promulgated in all dynasties, but they cannot fundamentally eliminate such phenomena, and only change the general social atmosphere.

However, for gamblers who are addicted to this, even if there is a gambling ban, they can still find ways to get together and have fun.

During those years as a criminal police officer, I have seen many cases of family ruin due to gambling.

She probably remembered that the Dahe Empire had promulgated many anti-gambling policies since the establishment of the dynasty. At the beginning, it was a ban on gambling for upper-level officials. Any official who gambles with property will not only be dismissed from office, but also have no family wealth and will never be hired. .

Later, it was extended to all parts of the country, and the punishment was even stricter. Anyone who gambled would be sentenced to be stabbed in Guizhou, or beheaded in severe cases.

It's just that the laws have been abolished in recent years, and many unhealthy trends have gradually spread from the upper echelon of the royal family, and then spread across the country, so there are upstarts like the Qi family who made their fortunes from gambling houses.

Indeed, as Lin Jinxiao said, this kind of thing cannot be managed.

Looking at the woman in yellow who was still struggling outside the curtain, she could only feel sad in her heart that this woman was in an unfortunate family.

Thinking of this, she slowly lowered the curtain, looked at the Chenning face in front of her with warm eyes, and deliberately joked: "Lin Dalang, how do you think you have survived these years?"

This little boy doesn't gamble, and he never even set foot in brothels that everyone talks about. He doesn't have any bad habits. His only pleasure is reading and practicing swords.

Although he is not very funny, he is down-to-earth, diligent and caring for his family, and has the character and elegance of a true scholar. It is also a blessing to meet such a man.

Lin Jinxiao heard that she was laughing at himself for being bored, pinched the tip of her quivering little nose angrily, and teased on purpose: "Of course it depends on those fascinating words."

After finishing speaking, he still couldn't help showing a embarrassed expression.

"It's not good to read too many scripts."

Chu Nanzhi looked at him with a smirk.

Thinking of the scriptures he once told himself, I couldn't help but want to laugh: "Lin Dalang, if one day I disappear from your side, will you wait like the heroine in the scriptures you have read?" Five hundred years to me?"

"Why are you always talking nonsense today?"

Lin Jinxiao's eyes dimmed: "It's fine, why did you disappear?"

Could it be that she is really a fairy descending from the earth, with the ability to escape from the ground and ascend?

He doesn't believe that there are any immortals in this world, and ghosts possessed by spirits are at most seen in story books, and he has never really heard of such things in reality.

But when the idea of ​​ghost possession flashed through his mind, he still couldn't help but look at the pretty woman in front of him more.

Chu Nanzhi was also afraid that he would fall into self-strategy again, so she hurriedly said, "I was just asking casually."

Although she has seen the ending of the time-traveling person and returning to the original world in the novel, she still doesn't believe that she is so lucky.

Besides, she remembered that she was shot and died, and she was afraid that there was no possibility of rescue.

Presumably my world memorial service has already ended, and the remains have been cremated.

So, she would never have this kind of fantasy at all, and she would stay in this world honestly and live with him in a down-to-earth manner, to realize her vision of living a new life.

Lin Jinxiao only thought that she was testing himself, and replied very seriously: "If one day you really disappear from my side, all I can do is bring the little treasures and wait for you to come back."

There is only one reason why she can disappear with her ability, and that is that she doesn't want to see herself again and hides on purpose.

Gripping her slender fingers tightly, Lin Jinxiao added sincerely: "Chu Nanzhi, you gave me this chance to stay by my side, but I won't give you another chance to slip away from me. Unless I die."

"No nonsense."

Chu Nanzhi touched his slightly raised lips with her index finger, and was about to say more, when she suddenly heard a scream from outside.

She lifted the curtain of the car and looked over, and saw that the direction where the woman in yellow disappeared was surrounded by a group of men and women in different clothes, pointing and talking loudly.

Chu Nanzhi and Lin Jinxiao looked at each other, and quickly stopped the carriage.
