I went to the temple after traveling through time, and he turned out to be a monk!

Meng Ying's heart froze for a moment, he didn't expect to see her on this occasion.

Two and a half years have passed!

Although I have received letters from her, it is hard to imagine how she has changed, whether she has gained weight, whether her hair has grown longer, whether her eyes are still as bright...

He often thought about it, but couldn't imagine what she looked like.

Looking at it now, she was much more moving than he thought.

She's not doing badly.

Meng Ying's heart felt soft, inexplicably distressed. His fingertips felt a little hot. He unconsciously wanted to stand up by holding on to the chair handle, but suddenly he saw her eyes were red. Meng Ying couldn't help but frown slightly and stopped talking. .

Bai Zhi immediately fell into his deep eyes, and she panicked for a moment. She quickly turned around and shed tears uncontrollably.

She held up her sleeves and quickly wiped away her tears. Avoiding the eyes of Meng Ying and Zhuo Ling, she went to Lin Ling and bowed slightly. She spoke with a little choked voice, "Your Majesty the Governor..."

Lin Ling had always been keen, and when he saw Bai Zhi's expression was wrong, he knew that Bai Lianhua was a stable person, and such fear rarely appeared on her face, and he felt a little panicked in his heart.

He saw Lin Long behind Bai Zhi again. The boy's face was pale, his lips were also white, with a layer of dry skin, and his eyes were full of fear and panic.

This look shouldn't appear on his face.

No one spoke, but Lin Ling's heart plummeted.

It was like countless ants crawling all over my body, and my whole body was trembling with fear.

Meng Ying also noticed that something was wrong in the atmosphere and secretly glanced at Bai Zhi. She turned her back, her shoulders tightened and her body felt a little stiff.

If he were here, it might be difficult for them to speak.

So he stood up and bowed slightly to Lin Ling, "Master Lin, I still want to see the beach, so I won't bother you anymore."

Lin Ling was a little stunned. When he turned around, his expression became a little hollow, "It's because the subordinate is being lazy..."

Meng Ying made room for them to talk, but felt a little worried in her heart.

Zhuo Ling asked him, "Aren't you going to see her?"

"Now is not the time." Meng Ying said calmly, and then ordered his men to find out what happened.

inside the house.

Lin Ling asked in a trembling voice, "But something happened to Songxue?"

Lin Long knelt down with a plop, took out a dagger, and raised it high, "Lin Long is guilty and failed to protect the innocence of the young lady. Please forgive me. Lin Long is willing to die to apologize!"

"What? What? What you mean by innocence, please make it clear!" Lin Ling couldn't believe what she heard.

Bai Zhi took a deep breath, mustered up her courage and said, "Sir, Songxue was...raped by Yan Qi in Xianrenfang!"

As soon as these words came out, Lin Ling felt dizzy and staggered back a few steps, "You are talking nonsense!"

Bai Zhi choked and said nothing.

Lin Long hurriedly kowtowed and begged Lin Ling to kill him. He would rather die than Lin Songxue suffer this crime.

Lin Ling's head was so congested that he couldn't even lift a breath and fainted.

*

After this incident, Bai Zhi sent Lin Songxue home.

Lin Songxue locked herself in the room, neither eating nor drinking water.

When Bai Zhi saw Lin Ling the next day, his hair had turned gray almost overnight, with only a few scattered black hairs remaining, making him look even more aged.

Mrs. Lin cried till she had snot and tears, and she had such a quarrel with Lin Ling that even her brother and sister-in-law who were outside rushed home.

The family was obviously divided into two factions. The brothers did not approve of Lin Songxue marrying into the Yan family. However, Mrs. Lin and her sisters-in-law knew how a woman would fare when faced with the slander of her reputation, and they only felt that it would be easier for her to marry her.

Only Lin Ling didn't dare to speak, he couldn't make this decision.

Bai Zhi was invited to her home to comfort Lin Songxue and witnessed everything.

When Mrs. Lin saw Bai Zhi, her mood broke down. She pointed at Lin Ling and scolded her, "You are talking about doing it for the people. I think you are just obsessed with helping a woman deal with the Yan family. There has been no major incident in Qiongzhou for so many years!" Why does Qiongzhou have to change as soon as this woman comes?! You speak! Don’t you usually make up your mind? Why don’t you speak now? "

Mrs. Lin had something to say, but Bai Zhi just kept silent. She didn't want to anger Mrs. Lin. If she became her enemy, her desire to let Songxue marry the Yan family would be even stronger.

Lin Ling avoided people and left the crowd in despair. He found Bai Zhi and Wu Yong, and implored with dull eyes, "The Dragon Boat Festival is around the corner. There are some small things happening at home. It's all happening in the world. Please bear with me, Mr. Wu." , and asked Miss Bai... to stay in Lin Mansion and accompany Songxue, but she doesn't want to eat, I'm worried... worried..."

"I obey your orders," Bai Zhi agreed.

In the next few days, Bai Zhi and Lin Songxue lived and ate together. Lin Songxue felt shameless and did not want to see her parents. She only dared to talk to Bai Zhi about her inner feelings.

In the past few days, Lin Songxue hesitated and went back and forth on whether to marry or not.

Bai Zhi didn't persuade her, for fear that she would influence her choice. She even began to blame herself. If she hadn't come to Qiongzhou to get involved, Yan Qi might not have made such a move.

Such thoughts made her suffer.

At the same time, rumors began to spread in the neighborhood that Lin Xiangong's daughter had an affair with the Yan family's son in Xianrenfang.

Whether it's Lin Ling, Wu Yong, or even Meng Ying, they are all checking the source of this news. The news came from Xianrenfang and someone deliberately spread it.

Together with these messages, no matter what method you use, it will be difficult to stop the crowd.

Yan Qi wanted to make it difficult for Lin Ling to get off the tiger's back. For the sake of his daughter's reputation, he had no choice but to marry her.

Lin Ling still couldn't make this decision.

Seven days have passed and the Dragon Boat Festival is coming.

People were boating on the river, waiting for the dragon boat race to start. The people who came this time were either rich or noble, and all of them had extraordinary status. As soon as they opened their mouth, they signed a huge business deal.

Even though Lin Ling hid for several days, she still had to go out to meet guests.

The dignitaries all boarded the boat and sat down at the table early. The governor Lin Ling's face was gray and his eyes were empty.

Meng Ying, who holds the title of prince, sat in the first place with his master. Sitting under him were the two brothers of the Yan family and Yan Qin's wife Chen Fu. On the other side sat Zhuo Ling and Zhuo Hong. Next to Zhuo Ling sat the Wei family from Evergreen City. Sun Weifeng, followed by Wu Yong, the seat next to Wu Yong was reserved for Bai Zhi, Bai Zhi was still accompanying Lin Songxue, so this seat became vacant.

From the moment he walked in until now, Lin Ling didn't dare to look at Yan Qi. He was afraid that he would be impulsive and rush up and stab him to death.

He said polite words and toasted numbly, and all his movements were numb, as if he had lost his soul.

The seven days of silence made Lin Songxue calm down a lot.

She has a fun-loving temperament. In the past, her father kept her at home to prevent her from seeing Yan Qi, and she would make a big fuss in two or three days. Now she took the initiative to stay in the house for seven days.

She felt a little ironic...

Today is the Dragon Boat Festival. The people of Qiongzhou City have been preparing for this day for a long time, and she is also looking forward to this day.

She didn't want to miss it, so she asked Bai Zhi to take her out for a walk.

They put on the exquisite embroidered clothes brought back from Wei County, which were bright and strange, but before going out, they changed them again.

She always liked to wear beautiful clothes, but she was afraid that others would recognize her and point fingers at her.

Seeing her hesitation, Bai Zhi was cautious and ordered people to put the two sets of clothes into the carriage and take them with them.

After doing enough mental preparation, Lin Songxue opened the door.

What a strong sun! It’s so intense that it’s hard to look directly at it!

Lin Songxue chuckled, a little sad, "Ha! This blue sky and white sun..."
