Even the slumbering Lin Shu couldn't help but perk up when he heard this news. Originally, it was their people who saw the servants beside Lin Pei giving a big bag of silver to the servants beside Wang Pei. According to the eyewitnesses, that bag of silver was at least 500 taels of silver.
Speaking of this, Actinin Qin couldn't help but smile, "... I think that Wang Pei's death has something to do with Master, this servant has already sent people to keep an eye on the servant beside Wang Pei, and will capture him after he leaves the capital in a few days, so that Master will not be exposed, Miss, you said that Master has always been cautious, why did you suddenly want to kill Wang Pei? "
Lin Shu shook her head, "I don't know either, but maybe I'll be able to find out something from that servant."
Whether it was the attendant beside Wang Pei or Lin Hui, no news was spread over these past few days.
If there was no news, that would be the best news.
It was just that Lin Shu never thought that the Princess Changze would reply to her with a post inviting her to go to the Liucheng Garden to listen to the show tomorrow.
Lin Shu didn't even think twice before rejecting the Princess Changze's invitation. It didn't matter if she was a coward or a coward, it was better to be extra careful when facing a scheming person like the Princess Changze.
But who would have thought that Princess Changze would come personally on the second day?
Lin Shu no longer had any reason to evade, what's more, Linglong Pavilion was her territory, she was not afraid of any storm that the Princess Changze would cause.
After the Princess Changze finished drinking the two cups of tea from the side chamber, it was only then that Lin Shu arrived. When she saw her, she immediately stood up, but after glancing at the few servants behind her, she swallowed her words.
Lin Shu knew what the Princess Changze wanted to ask, so she waited for her greetings before she ordered everyone in the house to leave.
The Princess Changze went straight to the point: "Lin Shu, what exactly do you want to do? Now that the First Princess Pingning has made it clear to the empress dowager that he wouldn't ask her to marry the empress dowager, why haven't you sent the empress dowager back yet? "How long are you going to wait?"
Lin Shu laughed, then said: "I will send Lin Geer back, but not at this time, it is said that you know yourself, and know your opponents well. I know Princess Changze's character, and I am afraid that today, I will send Lin Geer to the King Rui Palace, and tomorrow my life will be gone, I will wait until I am safe before bringing Lin Geer back. Princess Changze can rest assured, at that time, Lin Geer will definitely not lose a single hair on her head. "
"Why should I believe you? If anything happens to Lin Geer now, you actually duped me into saying that Lin Geer is fine … " Princess Changze simply did not dare to think any further. She endured the anger and said: "I don't care, you must return Lin Geer within half a month, or else don't blame me for being impolite."
She had thought about it carefully during this period of time. She had been too anxious the other day, and that was why she had fallen into Lin Shu's trap, and at that time, she should not have talked too much about it in front of Empress Dowager Wang. When the time came, the Yin Kiss would definitely come, whether it was First Princess Pingning or Empress Dowager Wang, they would definitely find someone to guard Lin Shu closely.
If she could really deliver the news, it would be for the best. At that time, he would go with the flow and find out where the Lin Geer was.
Lin Shu looked at Princess Changze calmly, "Then why isn't Princess Changze being courteous? Is it because Master Wang is dead now? Your restless heart is now even more restless, and you just want to get rid of my mother quickly and become a Fifth Madam with Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion? "
"It's true that your identity is noble and noble, but even if you become a widow, your identity is more than sufficient to match my father's … It's just that you didn't think about it. How could Grandmother loosen her mouth? Grandmother has always viewed Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion's reputation as more important than her life. A widower marrying a widow, if these words were to spread, no one would dare to say anything about you.
Based on her understanding of the Grand Madam, she knew that a hundred times out of ten, the Grand Madam would definitely not agree to it. Grand Madam did not know that there was something fishy going on between these two children!
The Princess Changze did not care about this, "You do not need to worry about these things, I have my ways … It's just an old woman, can you stop me now? "
Saying that, she became even more impatient: "I will give you half a month. If you don't return Lin Geer within that half a month, then you will no longer have the chance to filial piety to the Madam Lian. Without you, I'm afraid that mother of yours will not be able to live for more than a few days."
She miscalculated this time, if she threatened with Madam Lian's life, maybe Lin Shu would retreat, and with Lin Shu's life, Lin Shu would not care at all.
She felt that everyone in this world valued their lives more than anyone else, just like her.
Lin Shu laughed, "Then it's up to you, Princess Changze, if you want to take my life, how can I hug your leg and beg you?"
She wanted to see, how many days Princess Changze could be on her side, in any case, she planned to not go anywhere during this period of time, if there were any movements from Princess Changze's side, how could she not be on guard?
Lin Geer was absolutely not one to be handed over, if she were to hand it over, not to mention Princess Changze, it was likely that Lin Pei would be the first one to take her life.
Princess Changze left angrily after saying a few good words a few times.
Lin Shu did not take this matter seriously at all. After all, there were times in Princess Changze where she did not want to harm her … However, she still instructed Actinin Qin to pay more attention to the movements in the Linglong Pavilion. Since ancient times, wanting a person's life to be many times over is just like poisoning.
didn't wait for Princess Changze to make a move and instead waited for him to come two days later.
It had only been two days, but First Madam had already aged a lot. Her eyes were red and swollen, and with a single glance, one could tell that she had been crying non-stop for the past two days. Sister Shu, go take a look at Sis Hui'er, she has been lying on her bed for the past few days, eating and drinking nothing, if you continue to stay like this, I'm afraid she won't be able to hold on for more than a few days. "
Initially, she thought Lin Hui was only trying to scare them. After Lin Hui didn't eat for a day or two, she only advised him a little and didn't take it to heart. This child had a stubborn personality since she was young, so he had to make her suffer a little.
However, who knew that on the third day, Lin Hui was already so hungry that she couldn't even talk properly, and almost fainted. She brought along her tassels and poured them straight into Lin Hui's mouth, but Lin Hui's mouth was still tightly shut, she really didn't eat a single bite, and even muttered something like "I won't marry, I won't marry" in her daze.
After that, it was only after Lin Hui drank a few mouthfuls of water that she sobered up. The Grand Madam only made a move, asked the small kitchen to send a table of food inside, which was extremely tasty, and even those who did not stop to eat their meals felt their appetite rise, but Lin Hui still did not even glance at them … Only now did First Madam realize that something was amiss.
Without saying anything, Lin Shu went to look at Lin Hui, she laid on the bed and called out to him "Third Sister" a few times, only then did Lin Hui turn to look at her, her originally chubby face had become so thin that one could see the tip of her chin, "Sister Shu …" It's you! "
"Third sister, why do you have to suffer this time?" Lin Shu could not help but let out a long sigh. Holding her hand, she whispered: "You degrade your body like this, but the Brother Yao does not know anything at all. Even if you force the First Aunt to push the marriage over to the Huaiyin Palace, next time, next time? Is it always like this? "
She never thought that Lin Hui would marry Lian Yao, firstly, her status was not suitable for her, and secondly, Lian Yao did not like Lin Hui.
She still remembered that before she left the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion, she found out about Lin Hui's worries, and then she especially asked Lian Yao how he saw Lin Hui. Lian Yao directly said without thinking, only saying that the Sis Hui'er was very cute, and if only she had a sister like the Sis Hui'er herself, and in the end she even said that she would definitely treat the Sis Hui'er as her own little sister … If there was even Yao who liked Sis Hui'er, how would he say such words?
Lin Hui shook her head and said weakly: "I don't know … Anyways, I already know that I don't want to marry into the Huaiyin, even if it means my death! "
As she spoke, two streams of tears fell from her hair and onto the soft pillow, wetting a large portion of the dark green golden silk pillow.
Lin Shu didn't even know how to persuade her otherwise. She could only bring a bowl of chicken soup with a tassel and softly say: "Can you at least eat something, third sister? Otherwise, how can you wait for Brother Yao's next return? "
A spoonful of chicken soup was fed to Lin Hui's mouth, but Lin Hui turned his head away without even looking at it.
Lin Shu was unable to do anything but look at First Madam, who was crying at the door, and shook her head.
She had no other choice, she couldn't be swindling her just because Lin Hui was eating, right? She could not do this, even if Lin Hui could eat something for the time being, it was not a long term plan …
Lin Shu advised Lin Hui for a while longer, but Lin Hui simply closed her eyes and ignored her.
First Madam covered her handkerchief and started sobbing. Lin Hui acted as if she did not hear anything, but Lin Shu did not pretend not to hear anything. She walked out and said: "First Aunt, don't be sad.
"What else could she have done? She had already used all that we could think of, but she refused to enter. She even came back twice with the Juan Niang in her arms. She … She still doesn't want to eat! " First Madam used her handkerchief to wipe her tears, but if she had any methods, she would not go find Lin Shu.
Lin Shu thought for a while, then said in a low voice: "First Aunt, I have a way."
First Madam's eyes lit up, as if she could not believe it, "You … You have a way? "
It was not that she didn't believe in Lin Shu, but she had used up all of the tricks she had in the past few days.
Lin Shu nodded his head, and said: "This method will definitely be effective, if you don't believe me, just wait and see." It was just that for that, Lin Hui was afraid that she would be severely hurt for a while.
