After the eldest daughter was reborn, the whole family knelt down and begged for forgiveness
Chapter 10 First Meeting with Lin Xun
Xiao Xuetang did not miss the avoidance in Lin Shaoshu's eyes, and sneered in his heart!
really……
He has already met Ye Jin!
In their previous life, Ye Jin and Lin Shaoshu and his group arrived in Kyoto one after the other, only one day apart.
Lin Shaoshu traveled by water, while Ye Jin returned with the army. No one expected that they would have a brief intersection. Even Xiao Xuetang was kept in the dark by Lin Shaoshu for a long time.
Later, Ye Jin let it slip, and she realized that they had such a deep connection, and they had already regarded each other as close friends as early as the flood control work in Huaizhou.
Obviously, Lin Shaoshu didn't seem to know Ye Jin's identity at this time, so he came to the Marquis' Mansion today.
If Lin Shaoshu knew that the so-called unruly adopted daughter he mentioned was actually his confidant whom he met by chance on the way, I wonder how wonderful his expression would be.
A hint of sarcasm flashed in Xiao Xuetang's eyes, and he was about to reply to him.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, a voice shouted from a distance: "How dare you, who dares to climb the wall of Yong'an Marquis Mansion!"
It turned out that Marquis Yong'an happened to pass by and saw the situation here.
Xiao Xuetang frowned slightly, and Lin Shaoshu's eyes also flashed with a rare panic. Just as the two of them were stunned, Yong'an Hou had already rushed over with a horse whip in hand, and when he raised the whip to whip...
He happened to see the man lying on the wall. Even though his clothes were stained with dust, he still looked handsome and elegant.
Although they hadn't seen each other for five years, Marquis Yong'an recognized this person at a glance because of the peach blossom eyes unique to the Xie family and such a unique face.
"The third...the third prince?"
The tone of Yong'an Hou's voice was full of surprise and even a hint of disbelief.
The third prince had a noble character, and even Marquis Yong'an, who was far away in Jingzhou, had heard of him. Moreover, among all the children in the past, the third prince was the most gentle and sensible one.
Who could have thought that such a gentlemanly man would actually do something like...climb over a wall.
The expression on Marquis Yong'an's face suddenly became very strange, and his expression changed again and again, and then he put away the whip.
He glared at Xiao Xuetang fiercely: "Although you are engaged to the Third Prince, but...but you are both so old, how can you do such a disrespectful thing!"
Even though it was Lin Shaoshu who climbed over the wall, Marquis Yong'an still blamed Xiao Xuetang.
Lin Shaoshu didn't expect to be seen by Yong'an Hou. He looked a little embarrassed and was hesitating whether to leave or come down. But he didn't expect that Xiao Xuetang would be scolded. When he was about to explain, he heard a voice as steady as iron...
"Young man Mu Ai, the Marquis doesn't need to be so harsh on me."
Hearing this voice, Lin Shaoshu, who was originally in a dilemma on the wall, almost slipped and fell down, while Xiao Xuetang instinctively turned around stiffly.
At this time, it was not only Marquis Yong'an who passed through the courtyard gate, but also... a man in black clothes.
He wore a dark gold mask that covered most of his face, leaving only a pair of cold and deep phoenix eyes with a terrifying edge.
Regent, Lin Xun!
In this brief moment, Xiao Xuetang's memories of Lin Xun surged up.
In his previous life, Xiao Xuetang and Lin Xun did not have much interaction. He had only seen him a few times at palace banquets, and he always covered his face with a mask. I heard that it was because his appearance was disfigured on the battlefield.
Although I couldn't see his face clearly, his eyes could be seen through the crowd...
Cold and terrifying!
Like... a wild beast.
Xiao Xuetang was not a timid person, but for some reason she was afraid of him.
Even the maids around him mentioned him and said, "I heard that when the Regent was born, the master predicted that he was the reincarnation of Buddha. How could he be as scary as Shura?"
Xiao Xuetang felt the same way.
Moreover, Lin Xun's reputation was not very good both in the court and in the country.
It was indeed he who turned the tide and saved the country from collapse when the eunuchs controlled the government and the royal family was in decline; but it was also he who was more accomplished than his master, served as emperor for three dynasties and was extremely powerful.
No matter how mixed Lin Xun's reputation is in the court and the country, to be honest, if Dayin did not have Lin Xun's drastic measures, it would probably have fallen apart long ago.
The eunuchs were in power and colluded with the aristocratic families, and the royal family was weak.
Lin Shaoshu's personality is similar to that of Emperor Yonghui, kind and gentle to put it nicely, but soft-hearted and lenient to put it bluntly. Without Lin Xun's presence, I'm afraid there would be rebellion within and outside the court.
In her previous life, Xiao Xuetang was like everyone else, both respecting and fearing this powerful regent. She remembered that after Lin Shaoshu ascended the throne and consolidated his power, he seemed to have murderous intentions towards Lin Xun...
Although Lin Xun was very young, he had personally supported two emperors to ascend to the throne. This man was at the pinnacle of power and could stir up bloody storms with just one hand.
Xiao Xuetang had just made up her mind not to have any interaction with Lin Xun, but she never expected to meet him in the Marquis' Mansion in just a short while.
It was still a very embarrassing scene even for Xiao Xuetang, who had been reborn once.
The regent probably didn't hear much of her conversation with Lin Shaoshu...
The girl, who had just remained calm and composed when being scolded by her father, now looked at the uninvited guest who appeared at the gate of the yard in panic, thinking hopelessly.
How could she know that the Regent was an expert in martial arts and had sharp eyes and ears. He was originally discussing matters with the Marquis of Yong'an in the pavilion in the garden, but he did not expect to see a person lying on the wall of the Marquis's mansion from afar.
From a distance, Lin Xun thought that some stupid assassin was lying in ambush in the mansion. He never expected that when he got closer, he found out that it was the Third Prince who had become a knave.
The third prince called Lin Xun "Uncle". Lin Xun knew that his nephew had always been calm and steady, and was one of the few idiots in the royal family whom he could look up to.
But I didn't expect that he would be so impulsive for a girl. This girl from the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion is really a disaster.
The girl's cheeks, originally as transparent as white porcelain, were stained with a thin layer of blush, perhaps because of anxiety or shame, and were even brighter than the crabapple tree behind her.
The sunlight fell on her face, creating a hazy halo. The teardrop mole at the corner of her eye was so beautiful that even Lin Xun, who had never been interested in women, couldn't help but take a second look.
Lin Xun couldn't help but feel something was wrong when he saw this, but Xiao Xuetang suddenly felt a chill rising from behind, and he took several steps back in shock.
This look is so similar to the man in the dream!
At this moment, an absurd thought flashed through Xiao Xuetang's mind. Could it be that... the man in the Huguo Temple in the previous life was him?
All the blush on her face faded away in an instant, and she looked at the man several feet away from her with panic. The corners of her eyes were slightly red due to excessive fear, and the teardrop mole made the girl, who had originally looked cold and calm, look pitiful.
Like a crabapple blossom hit by rain.
I don't know what Lin Xun was thinking about, his cold eyes darkened...
