At dawn, the distant eastern sky gradually turned white, and the fog was diffuse, sometimes thick and sometimes thin. The surrounding scenery was still a little blurry and the air was cold.
The guards who had been patrolling all night also blew out their torches and handed over their torches to other guards.
Then came the news of lifting the lockdown, along with an imperial decree to end this year's winter encirclement early.
The emperor, the empress, and a group of concubines had already set out for home last night, and they must have arrived in Kyoto by now.
As soon as the imperial edict came out, Lin Qing immediately panicked. She never expected that things would be so out of control. Now she could only find Yingyue as soon as possible and let her find a way to divert those bandits first.
Lin Qing was thinking this when he saw that everyone who had finished issuing the imperial edict was getting up to pack their things. Lin Lin also saw Shen standing behind Lin Qingyao at a glance.
At this moment, Lin Qing also understood that this might be her last chance. Just at this moment, the imperial edict came down, and everyone came to the open space to receive it.
Suddenly Lin Qing didn't care about anything else. She stood up and walked straight towards Shen's direction.
At this moment, Shen was still chatting with a lady of an official beside her, and she saw Lin Qing walking straight to her side. Shen immediately showed a suspicious expression, but because there were other people beside her, she immediately put on a hypocritical smile.
Lin Qing also gave Shen a meaningful smile and spoke to her using lip language.
"You're done."
Then, before Shen could react, Lin Qing hugged Shen's legs and knelt down with a plop, crying and shouting.
"Mother! Mother! Where have you been these days? I was so worried!
Mother! My daughter finally sees you, mother! Mother! Why did you come back just now? "
When Shen saw Lin Qingye's sudden action, she didn't react for a moment to what Lin Qingye was trying to do, and just stood there in confusion.
Then Lin Qing stood up again regardless, grabbed Shen's hand, and quickly lifted up her sleeves. The official's wife next to her also leaned over to take a look out of curiosity.
Shen's originally fair hands were covered with purple scars. She was frightened and immediately pulled her hands back in panic.
Lin Qing then hugged Shen into his arms again and cried loudly regardless of anything.
"Mother! My mother...
Woo woo ...
Where have you been these days? Who hurt you like this? "
As Lin Qing's cries became louder and louder, the crowd that had just dispersed gradually gathered together again.
Shen immediately became nervous and tried to break free from Lin Qingye's hand and escape from here quickly.
However, Lin Qingye held Shen's hand even tighter as she tried to break free, and hugged Shen again, then laid on her shoulder and whispered in her ear.
"You're done."
Shen was stimulated and pushed Lin Qing out. Lin Qing had no intention of dodging and fell to the ground instead.
Then Lin Qing hugged Shen's thighs again and cried.
"Mother! You have suffered, mother! Mother! It is my daughter who is unfilial!
Wuuwu ...
At this moment, Lin Qingyao finally managed to push through the crowd and squeeze in.
The first thing Lin Qingyao did after she came over was to grab Lin Qingye, who was holding onto Shen tightly and refused to let go, and slap him hard.
"Lin Qingye! Are you sleepy so early in the morning? What nonsense are you talking about here!
Someone, come here! Cui Xi! Hurry up and take your young lady away!"
Lin Qingye covered the cheek that was slapped by Lin Qingyao, and then secretly bit the tip of his tongue. As the bloody smell in his crying voice spread, Lin Qingye showed an imperceptible smile on his face.
Seeing that Lin Qing was also beaten, Cui Xi hurriedly squeezed in from the crowd. She picked up Lin Qing who was sitting on the ground and questioned Lin Qingyao.
"Miss! How can you hit someone!"
Then Cui Xi just lowered her head to check if Lin Qingye was injured, she saw a faint trace of blood at the corner of Lin Qingye's mouth. Cui Xi was so frightened that she didn't know what to do.
Just at this moment, Lin Qing suddenly gave Cui Xi a wink, and Cui Xi immediately understood what she meant.
Then Cui Xi burst into tears loudly.
"Miss! Why are you bleeding, Miss!"
Then he went forward and hugged Lin Qingyao's feet and cried loudly.
"Miss! Please don't hit me anymore. Cui Xi kowtows to you and admits her fault. Please...
The young lady was just concerned about the eldest lady, so she lost her composure for a moment and boldly called the eldest lady "mother".
I will apologize to you and the Madam on behalf of the young lady. It is all Cuixi’s fault. It was Cuixi who did not take good care of the young lady…”
Before Cui Xi could finish her words, Lin Qingyao kicked her away again.
The crowd watching immediately started talking one after another. They were basically young ladies and wives of officials, including some favored concubines and illegitimate daughters.
Originally, Lin Qingyao's reputation in the capital was that she was beautiful and kind-hearted. She had also hooked up with the Third Prince before, and some people in the noble ladies' circle in the capital had long been dissatisfied with her.
Now that this happened, it gave those noble ladies an opportunity to ridicule Lin Qingyao.
"Isn't this Lin Qingyao, the talented lady from the Pingnan Marquis's Mansion? Isn't she always the model of noble ladies in the capital? Why is she behaving so rudely?"
"That's right! She was said to be kind before, but she slapped her half-sister until she bled. How can she be kind?"
"Yeah! He was so cruel to his own sister that he slapped her so hard that she bled. It seems like he has done this many times before."
When Lin Qingyao heard everyone's discussions, she immediately became so angry that her face turned red. However, facing so many mouths around her, she had no way to defend herself, so she quickly turned her gaze to Shen who was standing beside her.
But Shen was obviously not having a good time at the moment. The official lady who had just talked to her was looking her up and down, and then said in a strange tone.
"Mrs. Lin, come to think of it, I seem to have not seen you in these days?
How did you get that wound on your hand? Have you had someone take a look at it?
This cannot be taken lightly. For us women, our bodies are the most important."
Before the official's wife finished her words, her daughter-in-law came forward and tried to pull her away.
"Mother-in-law, my mother is over there and would like you to come over and talk to her."
Then other wives of officials came forward and said.
"Why are you still talking to this Shen? Look at how the mother and daughter have bullied that little concubine's daughter."
"Yeah! She's so jealous. She doesn't look like a mistress at all!"
"That's right! And look at her hand, I don't know where it was injured."
"Didn't you hear what that little concubine said? I haven't seen you for a few days..."
"Stop talking, let's go quickly."
