Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space

"The old emperor could live for such a long time, and I am still alive and still alive today. Does that shock you so much?" Wen Baicao's eyes were extremely sharp, and there seemed to be murderous intent flowing in the depths of his eyes.

Lin Jing's heart almost stopped and his face turned extremely pale.

He took a step back somewhat uncontrollably, putting some distance between himself and Wen Baicao.

"I never thought you were still alive, because after what happened that year, except for a few little girls, everyone else, even the underage men, were executed immediately."

When he said this, his eyes trembled slightly. The three words "Wen Baicao" might have been forgotten by the emperor long ago, but he had no way of forgetting them.

This is because Wen Baicao was once the most trusted confidant of Prince Mingde and the most beloved cousin of Prince Mingde.

He and the emperor were in love and their marriage was planned, but the late emperor was afraid of Crown Prince Mingde, and in order to break up the forces around Crown Prince Mingde, he actually gave Wen Baicao's fiancée to the emperor.

But the emperor didn't expect that he had a beloved one, that person was Da Zhen, who was jealous and domineering.

She entered the palace as a concubine, and the emperor favored her and often made things difficult for the main wife, so that the main wife died a few years after entering the palace. The empress, who was obsessed with the emperor, used her death to win the position of master of the six palaces for herself.

"The late queen has not been posthumously honored for many years after her death. As her half-sister, the empress clearly stepped on her to ascend to the throne, but she chose to act innocent and put all the pain and hatred on her."

"To the point that not many people in this world know that the old emperor has an original wife. Lin Jing, she is so good, but because of the selfishness of the late emperor, she ended up like this. I feel very unwilling."

Wen Baicao seemed to know what Lin Jing was thinking and suddenly sighed.

Lin Jing's heart started beating wildly and the color on his face faded away completely in an instant.

He clenched his hands into fists, then unclenched them, repeating this several times, but Lin Jing still felt uneasy.

"The emperor is dead. As for the queen, I am not sure whether she is dead or not, but she is old. No matter how much trouble she makes, it won't cause any big trouble. Even if you want to avenge the late queen, I am afraid..."

"Are you trying to persuade me?" Wen Baicao interrupted him calmly.

Lin Jing's words were interrupted, and his mind was filled with the bloody events of more than fifty years ago.

He had thought that after so many years, the events of more than fifty years ago would become vague, but he did not expect that seeing Wen Baicao would suddenly bring all those events back to his mind.

"Wen Baicao, if you wanted to avenge the late queen, you should have done it long ago. Now that the emperor is dead, no one knows whether he is dead or alive. But you suddenly jumped out and saw through my identity. I have to doubt your intentions."

No matter how unbearable the past events were, they had passed a long time ago. Even if Lin Jing remembered them all, he could not use this incident to reminisce with Wen Baicao and stimulate him to go crazy.

He would only weigh the pros and cons rationally, and then he would think of something and immediately ask a question with doubt.

Wen Baicao was ashamed: "After the Prince Mingde case broke out, I was rescued, but I lost my memory and spent decades in a daze."

"When I regained my memory, I went to find Princess An Qing, hoping to stir up her hatred towards the emperor and empress and ask her to take revenge, but I didn't expect someone else to get there first."

"I was very angry, but I could do nothing. I could only continue to pretend to be a businessman to help Princess An Qing and ask her to do her best to help Disciple Yuan Zhou."

"But I didn't expect Tu Yuanzhou to let Princess An Qing meet the emperor, nor did I expect so many things to happen afterwards."

"But when the news came out that the emperor was killed by his own son, I was very happy. To express my gratitude to him, I even helped him collect medicinal materials to try to help him avoid the attack of the Ninth Prince."

"I didn't expect to see an acquaintance while walking around the city today. To be honest, I wasn't sure it was you at first, but after I noticed your little movements, I was sure of your identity."

"I came to you on purpose to reveal your identity. I have no other intentions. I just want to catch up with you and let you know that I am still alive."

Wen Baicao's voice was very gentle, and his face was as elegant as a scholar, as if the murderous aura that Lin Jing had felt before was just an illusion.

However, Lin Jing felt that it was not an illusion. He clearly felt the murderous aura from Wen Baicao, so he knew that Wen Baicao had become murderous when he recognized his identity.

"How have you been these years?" Lin Jing suppressed his uneasiness and put on a gentle attitude.

Since Wen Baicao said that he was an elegant scholar, he would pretend to believe it. He wanted to see how long Wen Baicao could pretend.

"Didn't I tell you? I have been a businessman over the years and have been helping Princess An Qing and Tu Yuanzhou." Wen Baicao emphasized the tone of this sentence without any hesitation.

Lin Jing heard a warning in it, and his thoughts raced. He then pretended to be surprised and said, "No wonder Tu Yuanzhou often received all kinds of things when he was in the Western Regions."

"I thought the White Lotus Sect was being used by him, so they were unscrupulously collecting money for him. I never thought you were the one helping him."

Having said this, Lin Jing's eyelids began to twitch as he thought of the years he spent as an undercover agent in the Western Regions.

"You can actually see through me at a glance. In the decades that I have been in the Western Regions, wouldn't you have known my identity long ago?"

He mixed with Tu Yuanzhou and became the imperial teacher of the Western Regions.

If Wen Baicao had told Tu Yuanzhou his identity, how could he have served as the imperial teacher for so many years and returned to Dajing safely?

"I haven't been to the Western Regions at all, so how can I know your identity?" Wen Baicao was even more surprised than Lin Jing. "You actually stayed in the Western Regions for so many years. No wonder Tu Yuanzhou's plan was shelved and he ran to He He."

"It turns out that you were behind this, causing Chen Changli and the Crown Prince to almost destroy the plan that Tu Yuanzhou and I had been planning for so many years."

When the word "we" came out, Lin Jing's heart skipped a beat, but his face remained expressionless as he stared at Wen Baicao.

Seeing that he didn't notice the flaw in his words, Lin Jing's eyes darkened.

Our two words can be big or small, it depends on how they think.

It just so happened that Lin Jing was a person who tended to have wild thoughts, and he immediately suspected that Wen Baicao had other intentions in helping Tu Yuanzhou.

"What are you planning?" Lin Jing asked directly without trying to test the answer.

When Wen Baicao heard this, his face suddenly became grim and he felt a little angry.

After a while he smiled and said, "You are still so smart. No wonder the old emperor was reluctant to kill you."

"This has nothing to do with intelligence, it's intuition, and you haven't tried to hide it." Lin Jing said bluntly, "Wen Baicao, you hate the emperor so much that you tried your best to help Tu Yuanzhou destroy Dajing?"
