In the previous life, she was fed to dogs by her elder sister, and she was reborn to seek revenge
Chapter 18 The 3rd Prince's Ambition
At this time, Lin Qing also felt extremely warm in Ye Tingxuan's arms. In her previous life, she was locked in a dog cage by Lin Qingyao for a whole winter. Her body was covered with frostbite. She couldn't sleep every night because of the cold. The biting cold wind was like steel needles, piercing her body from all sides of the dog cage, leaving her body covered with wounds.
It was winter again when she came back after her rebirth. She became particularly afraid of cold. The slightest chill would remind her of the bone-chilling coldness in her previous life.
Thinking of this, Lin Qing snuggled into Ye Tingxuan's arms again. Today, Lin Qing was wearing a pink seven-layer embroidered silk dress with a fur collar sewn on the neckline made of mink. The collar was slightly narrow, revealing her snow-white and slender neck. Her delicate face was as white as jade, flawless like solidified fat.
Lin Qingye has never liked such delicate colors. She prefers dark colors. Such deep colors are usually worn by older people. Ordinary people would look a little old-fashioned in them, but when Lin Qingye wears them, she looks particularly dignified and elegant.
Today, it was Cui Xi who picked out this pink silk dress for Lin Qingye. Cui Xi said that Nan Mingyu had someone make it for her because she knew that she was afraid of the cold, so she specially added a lot of mink fur to the dress, which not only looked beautiful but also kept her warm.
When Ye Tingxuan stretched out his hand to hug Lin Qingye who had come into his arms, he happened to touch the soft hair on her skirt. He couldn't help feeling warm in his heart and thought that the little person in his arms was so cute, just like a little rabbit.
Lin Qing also looked at Ye Tingxuan in the dim candlelight and said, "Ah Xuan, why don't you ask me why I asked you to rob food?"
Ye Tingxuan smiled gently and said softly, "Bao'er, do you want me to go outside the city to distribute grain?"
In fact, there have been disaster victims entering the city intermittently in the past period of time, but the number of people coming is only two or three every day, so it has not attracted attention yet.
However, this anomaly was still discovered by Ye Tingxuan's black cavalry. Normally, the prince was not allowed to raise an army, but Ye Tingxuan's black cavalry was given to him by the emperor on his tenth birthday. Although there were only one thousand of them, it was rumored that this black cavalry could defeat a hundred on the battlefield.
After receiving the news about the Black Cavalry, Ye Tingxuan immediately sent people out of the city to gather information. The spy came back and reported that Li County, which was closest to Kyoto, was already full of disaster victims, and the gates of Li County were heavily guarded inside and outside. The only person who could mobilize so many soldiers was the prince.
Every day, the guards at the city gates would release two or three victims and lead them to Kyoto. The spies then investigated further and found the third prince.
It turned out that these disaster victims were gathered by the Third Prince from various places. He had already gathered more than 50,000 of them and had been detained in Li Yang. He was going to release them all the day after tomorrow and let them go to Kyoto.
When so many disaster victims rush into Kyoto, it will inevitably cause chaos. The Third Prince will then set up a porridge stall with Lin Qingyao to provide disaster relief. Now, as there are already a few disaster victims entering the city, the Third Prince has already opened a porridge stall. When the victims enter the city, he can open another one.
Ye Tingxuan was playing with Lin Qingye's hair in his hands. The faint fragrance of a young girl wafting from the ends of her hair made him distracted. He suppressed his inner restlessness and told Lin Qingye the news about the third prince that the spy had found out.
After listening to this, Lin Qingye suddenly realized something. She didn't know this in her previous life. At this time in her previous life, she had already fallen in love with the Third Prince, and she obeyed her elder sister Lin Qingyao's every word. It's funny to say that in her previous life, Lin Qingyao and the Third Prince used Nan Mingyu's money to open the porridge shop.
Lin Qingyao's money was obtained from Nan Mingyu by her grandmother, and Lin Qingye took the money from the third prince. As a result, both of them gained fame and fortune, while she got nothing, but she was still foolishly happy for them.
So in the previous life, Ye Tingxuan must have found out about the Third Prince's conspiracy. Why didn't Ye Tingxuan expose the Third Prince? It must be because of Lin Qingye. At that time in the previous life, everyone in Kyoto knew that Lin Qingye loved the Third Prince.
Thinking of this, Lin Qingye felt even more guilty towards Ye Tingxuan. She gently rubbed her head against Ye Tingxuan's arms and said, "We only robbed Lin Qingyao's food, but what about Ye Tinghua's? He planned such a big show, do we really have to watch him succeed?"
Ye Tingxuan gently scratched Lin Qingye's nose with his finger and said with a hint of doting, "Ye Tingxuan's food is stored in Li County. It will probably be robbed on the way to the city tonight."
Lin Qing also came up with an idea after hearing this. At this time, Cui Xi knocked on the door. Cui Xi asked quietly at the door, "Miss, are you resting?"
Lin Qing also hurriedly stood up and said to Ye Tingxuan, "Ah Xuan, you go back first. I have something to tell Cui Xi."
After hearing this, Ye Tingxuan also stood up and kissed Lin Qingye lightly on the forehead and said, "Baoer, if there is anything, send Yingyue to find me."
Under the dim candlelight, Lin Qingye's little face was flushed, and she looked particularly shy against the backdrop of her pink dress, making Ye Tingxuan reluctant to leave.
After Ye Tingxuan left, Lin Qing also stood up and lit another candle. The room suddenly became bright. Cui Xi came in and said, "Miss, Miss Chen sent someone to pass on a message saying that the steward Zhang in the mansion is Madam Liu's man. Steward Zhang secretly accepted kickbacks from Xue Ding, so he ordered 100,000 dan of grain from Xue Ding. Xue Ding bet his entire fortune on the money he bought the 100,000 dan of grain. In addition, Madam Liu borrowed high-interest loans from underground banks. They plan to drive up the price and make money from the mansion together."
Lin Qing also laughed inwardly after hearing this. This matter involved more and more people. How come I didn't know anything about it in my previous life? This Pingnan Marquis Mansion is really a nest of snake uncles.
Just then, a maid came in from outside and said, "The old lady asked the second young lady to bring the female ring that she copied earlier for inspection."
Cui Xi pouted and said, "Why hasn't the old lady gone to bed yet so late? Can't you check tomorrow? Why do you have to choose this late at night?"
The maid outside said anxiously, "Sister Cui Xi, please don't make things difficult for us. Please help the young lady change her clothes quickly. Don't let the old lady wait anxiously."
Cuixi wanted to say something, but Lin Qing stood up and said to her, "It's okay. Since grandma wants to see me, I'll go. Cuixi, go to the desk and get the women's ring I copied and come with me."
Seeing that Lin Qingye had spoken, Cui Xi was unwilling to say anything more. She put away the female ring on the desk and came to Lin Qingye and said, "Miss, do you want me to wash up before you go?"
Lin Qing also waved his hand gently, straightened his clothes and said, "No need, just go like this, so that grandma and the others won't be anxious waiting."
On the way there, Lin Qing couldn't help but sneer in his heart, "I wanted to let you have a few more days of good life, but now you are so impatient to deliver yourself to my door. In this case, don't blame me for being rude."
