Chapter 151 Behind the Black Hand
Yi Yunyang wrote several sheets of paper casually. In addition to telling lovesickness, he also mentioned that Master Yi and Mrs. Yi admitted her as a daughter-in-law. Of course, I also talked about Wen Caiqing!
In fact, not to mention Yi Yun, Hyman has already guessed a little. In this era, the chances of men and women becoming friends are really rare, and as soon as Wen Caiqing mentions Yi Yun, his eyes are a little different. Coupled with her deliberate exploration, it is easy to guess that the relationship with Yi Yun is extraordinary.
She was just a little surprised. It turned out that the married wife mentioned by Yi Yun was actually married to today's emperor, and he was really a powerful rival!
Huang Yuejiao saw that she had finished reading the letter, and then came back from the door and silently did it opposite her.
"He wrote the letter to me." Hyman took the initiative to tell her.
Huang Yuejiao knew that "he" meant her husband and couldn't help but be happy for her. "So he already knows your whereabouts, so you don't have to worry that he will look for you everywhere!"
"Hmm!" Hyman nodded.
"But... is it the letter that the Empress brought you?" Huang Yuejiao still couldn't help but be curious.
Hyman didn't hide it from her, "Yes, that lady is friends with him."
"Really?" Huang Yuejiao's eyes lit up, "Then can't you and that lady also become friends? That lady is also responsible for selecting the show girl, so..."
She was a little too excited to express it.
Hyman pressed her hand and said, "Yuejiao, can you help me call Xue Ning over?"
"Good!" Huang Yuejiao nodded and agreed, ran out of the door, and soon called Lin Ziqin.
Haiman still let Huang Yuejiao look at the wind at the door and told Lin Ziqin what she discussed with Wen Caiqing.
"Sister, what will you do if you give me such a good opportunity?" Lin Ziqin grasped Haiman's hand tightly and was grateful and worried about her. "If you are sealed as a concubine, won't you never have a chance to be reunited with Mr. Yi?"
"Don't worry, I'll figure it out!" Hyman patted the back of her hand and comforted her.
Wen Caiqing said that when she wanted to take care of her, she also wavered for a moment, but she finally decided to give this opportunity to Lin Ziqin. She wants Lin Ziqin to lose the election anyway.
With the appearance and identity of Lin Ziqin, the title of concubine is absolutely not a problem. There is such an obvious sign on her face, which will definitely attract the attention of the emperor. In case the emperor is interested in her and wants to be lucky, it is difficult to guarantee that the girl will be unable to control and do stupid things to kill the king, and then her life will not be saved!
"No, sister, I can't take your chance. Tomorrow I will tell the Empress Li not to help me, find a way to help you, let you lose the election, and then go out of the palace to reunite with Mr. Yi!"
"Don't say stupid things!" Hyman looked at her with a solemn face, "Xue Ning, listen to me. Even if she will be favored by the emperor, she will not be long-term. You will spend most of your life in loneliness, jealousy and resentment, and there is no happiness. I don't want you to be unhappy, and Master Lin doesn't want you to be like this.
After you lose the election, you may become a palace maid. As long as you do well and persist until the age of leaving the palace, you can also find an ordinary man who is good to you and marry and live a good life.
Lin Ziqin bit her lip, "But I..."
"Think about Mozhu!" Seeing that she was still hesitant, Hyman had to move Mozhu out. She knew that Lin Ziqin had been thinking about Mo Zhu. In order to convince her and save her life, she had tore her wound cruelly.
Lin Ziqin's eyes flashed and flashed, and she lowered her head. She was really moved. "It's impossible for me and him... He said he was an ominous person and refused to accept my heart... Now I don't know where he is doing, what he is doing, and whether he is married..."
Hyman pressed her shoulder and looked into her eyes earnestly. "If you can leave the palace, you still have a chance to meet him, but if you stay in the palace, you will never have a chance. Mozhu didn't say that he didn't like you. He may have some unspeakable reason. He said that he was an ominous person. He was afraid of implicated you, so he would refuse you...
Maybe when you meet him again, his problem has been solved. He is no longer an ominous person. You have a chance to continue your relationship with him. Do you want to give up here like this?"
"But...it was my sister who let me forget him..."
"At that time, I was careless and experienced things with Yi Yun. I understand that some fate can only be maintained through unremitting efforts. As long as you don't give up, you will have a chance!"
Lin Ziqin looked at her, hesitated for a long time, and finally nodded, "Okay, I'll listen to my sister. I will do what you say tomorrow. But, sister, do you really have a way?"
"Well, you don't have to worry about me!" Hyman was finally relieved to hear her say this. I haven't seen her for half a year, and this girl's temper has also been quite stubborn, and it really took a lot to persuade her.
"Then I'll go back first." Lin Ziqin listened to her and was sure, and her trembling went away a lot. She got up and went out.
Haiman looked at her bleak back and felt a little blocked. If that girl, like Huang Yuejiao, was greedy for comfort and glory to enter the palace as a concubine, she would not have tried so much to make her lose the election. Unfortunately, she came for the road of no return of revenge. In order to save her life, she could only hurt her once!
Time can heal wounds, but it can't bring people back to life. I believe that Lin Ziqin can understand her painstaking efforts in the future. Don't blame her!
"Miss Xia, you gave up the opportunity to Xue Ning. Can you really do it yourself?" Huang Yuejiao looked at Haiman worriedly.
Heman smiled and said, "Well, I'll figure it out!"
"So there's nothing you can do?" Huang Yuejiao couldn't help but worry about her, "You are the best of the girls sent by King Huaiyue. If no one secretly helps you, you will definitely be selected..."
"I will act on the other." Hyman patted her hand comfortingly.
"But..." Huang Yuejiao still wanted to say something. She heard someone knocking on the door and stopped talking. She got up and opened the door. She saw a beautiful girl standing outside the door. "What's the matter?"
The show girl glanced at her, "It's not that I have something to do, it's Qu Mengpo who is looking for you!"
"Look for me?" Huang Yuejiao was a little puzzled, "Qu Mengpo has never paid much attention to me. What's the matter with me?"
"How do I know? Anyway, I sent the letter. Do you want to go or not!" The show girl left two sentences angrily and turned around and left.
Huang Yuejiao had no choice but to say hello to Haiman and went out to Qu Mengpo's room.
Hyman sat at the table and frowned and thought about things. He heard someone knocking on the door and walked over to open the door, but there was no one. He was surprised to see a folded note under his feet. She bent down and picked it up, unfolded it, and her face changed.
If you don't want your secret to be revealed, take all your valuable things and come to the pond in the backyard, otherwise you will bear the consequences...
This is obviously a blackmail letter.
Could it be that her conversation with Huang Yuejiao or Lin Ziqin was heard? She was already very careful when talking. How could she be heard? So was her conversation with Wen Caiqing heard? Who heard it? Huaiyue's beautiful girl? Or the eunuchs brought by Wen Caiqing?
No matter who hears any conversation, it is not small. It is not only related to her life, but also to Lin Ziqin and even Huang Yuejiao's life.
She gritted her teeth, put the note in her sleeve pocket, got up and went out of the door, and went straight to the lotus pond in the backyard.
At this time, the dusk is deep, and it is close to the time to eat. There is no half a figure in the backyard, which looks very quiet.
Heiman came all the way to the lotus pond and looked around for a long time, but no one saw anyone.
"I'm already here, come out!" She shouted tentatively, but there was still no movement around.
Is it a bluff? She frowned doubtfully and was about to turn around and leave when she suddenly heard a slight sound behind the rockery next to her, like the sound of stones falling to the ground.
Is it hiding behind there?
She hesitated a little and walked towards the rockery. As he approached, he glyed at a pink corner behind the rockery.
"Who is hiding there? Come out!" Hyman shouted in a low voice.
The corner of the clothes flashed and shrank back, and then there was a rapid sound of footsteps, and the man wanted to escape.
Hyman wanted to know who wrote to blackmail her, so he hurried to catch up with her. He hurriedly bypassed the rockery, but there was no one, and in front of him was a lotus pond. She was shocked. Just as she was about to retreat, she felt that her back had been pushed hard. One couldn't hold it and fell into the lotus pond with a bang.
In shock, she hurriedly held her breath and stroked hard. Just as she was about to emerge from the surface, she faintly heard a "bang" sound. She looked up and saw a big stone falling from the top of her head.
She hurriedly dodged away.
"Dong!" With another sound, another stone was thrown down.
It turns out that this is the so-called falling stone into the well. It seems that the person who pushed her into the water wanted her life.
She looked a little, hurriedly scratched her hands and feet, and swam to the place full of lotus next to her. With the obstruction of the lotus leaves, she probed out of the water and hurriedly changed her breath. The pain in her chest was slightly relieved. She settled down and looked on the shore. There was a woman in a pink dress standing in the place where she fell into the water just now, looking at the water eagerly.
I didn't see Hyman float up before he turned around and left in a hurry.
After she went far away, Hyman swam to the water, went ashore, and bent the corners of his mouth without sarcasm. "What a vicious woman who wants to kill me here!"
A cold wind blew, and she couldn't help shivering. Suddenly, I had an idea and simply found a well-ventilated place to sit down...
