The mistress is reborn, no one who bullies me can escape
Chapter 229 Discovering the Identity of Master Jin
After going out, Gongzi Jin's handsome face was still gloomy, and it was obvious that the anger in his heart had not yet subsided.
He suddenly stopped, turned around and shouted to his followers behind him: "Come here! Keep a close eye on the people inside. If there is any mistake, I will kill you!"
Before he finished his words, a group of well-trained guards gathered around him like a gust of wind, and in the blink of an eye, they had surrounded the room.
Xue Jinhua, who was trapped in the house, could no longer escape.
On the other side, Xue Jinhua sat down on the cold ground with a dejected look.
Her face, which had once been as beautiful as a flower, had now lost its former luster and looked particularly haggard.
However, even though she was in danger at the moment, as long as she thought about being able to save Qingyi, she felt that everything she had paid was worth it.
Suddenly, there was a burst of loud noise outside, as if the whole world was plunged into chaos.
Xue Jinhua's heart instantly rose to her throat, and a strong sense of uneasiness surged in her heart.
Then, a fierce sound of swords and guns clashing suddenly rang out, hitting her eardrums like a raging wave, making her heart beat faster and faster.
"Crown Princess..."
Just as Xue Jinhua was becoming more and more frightened, a deep and familiar voice suddenly sounded in her ears.
She was so shocked that her whole body trembled, and she subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound.
This sight made her dumbfounded - it turned out that a figure had appeared on the roof at some point. Upon closer inspection, she found that the man was the guard who had been cleverly sent away by her just now!
Xue Jinhua felt ecstatic, and the joy surged into her heart like a tide, but soon this excitement was extinguished by reality.
She looked up at the roof that was towering into the sky. The distance between it and the ground was so far away that it was impossible for her to climb up with her current ability.
Just when she was extremely anxious and at a loss, she saw a sturdy ladder slowly descending from the roof, like a passage leading to hope.
Xue Jinhua was overjoyed when she saw this. She grabbed the ladder without hesitation and climbed up using her hands and feet.
After finally climbing onto the roof, Xue Jinhua moved cautiously along the edge of the house.
Every step is full of thrills and uncertainties, and you may fall if you are not careful.
However, the goddess of luck seemed to have been blessing her, allowing her to leave smoothly...
Immediately afterwards, Xue Jinhua got on a carriage that had been waiting there.
Just as she was sitting down and preparing to urge the coachman to drive away, an accident suddenly occurred - the carriage was hit by the oncoming Lord Wen before it could even start!
"Mrs. Lin, I didn't expect to meet you here. What a coincidence!"
Master Wen's face was as gloomy as water, and his brows were tightly furrowed. His originally gentle face now became extremely cold, without a trace of smile, and even revealed a hint of chilling coldness.
Faced with the unexpected appearance of Master Wen and his icy words, Xue Jinhua's heart instantly rose to her throat, and an inexplicable panic arose from the bottom of her heart.
She pretended to be calm and asked with a slightly trembling voice: "Master Wen, what are you...what are you going to do?"
Master Wen stared at Xue Jinhua, his eyes flashing with anger, and he gritted his teeth and said, "When we were in Nanling, I risked my life to save you and gave you a brand new identity. But now, is this how you repay me?"
At this point, Master Wen became more and more agitated. Whenever he thought of the tragic experience of his poor daughter, his heart ached like a knife, and endless sadness instantly overwhelmed him.
Thinking of his mother's tragic death today, his movements were filled with anger, "It's all because of you. Forget about leaving Nanling. Why did you come to Shangzhou? Last time you killed my daughter, and this time you killed my mother. You are a disaster."
Mr. Wen had been kept in the dark and knew nothing about Xue Jinhua's true identity.
However, when he finally lifted the veil, the anger in his heart was instantly ignited, and he only wanted Xue Jinhua to repay the debt with blood.
"Master Wen, please listen to me! I have nothing to do with your daughter's death." Xue Jinhua frowned and explained with a wronged look on her face, "Back then, you knew my identity, so you should have explained the truth to your daughter."
"She shouldn't have had unreasonable expectations for things that didn't belong to her. She was too ambitious and tried to get things that could never belong to her, which led to such a tragic ending. But...how can you put all the blame on me?"
Facing Xue Jinhua's rebuttal, Master Wen was furious and shouted, "Shut up! Stop quibbling, you witch! If you hadn't come to Nanling, how could our Wen family have fallen into such a state?"
Obviously, Mr. Wen was unwilling to face up to his own mistakes and insisted on putting all the blame on Xue Jinhua alone.
Seeing this, Xue Jinhua could not help but frown again and argued: "Master Wen, think back to the time when Master Lin wanted to borrow your eldest sister's identity to do something, you were actually fully capable of rejecting his request."
"If you had decisively refused at that time, perhaps what happened today would not have happened, but now, you just keep shirking your responsibilities..."
She knew that if Master Wen had decisively refused at that time, given Ling Yan's personality and character, he would certainly not force her to do anything.
After all, her own identity is so delicate and sensitive that she could get into a lot of trouble if she is not careful. Ling Yan will never add unnecessary trouble to herself for no reason.
However, the truth is that Master Wen was blinded by greed and only thought about pursuing personal gain. In the end, he not only lost his own daughter, but also tried to put all the blame on others.
"Even if my daughter's death has nothing to do with you directly, how do you explain what happened today? If it weren't for you, why would the prince suddenly attack today?" Master Wen asked sternly with his eyes wide open.
Facing Master Wen's accusation, Xue Jinhua did not show any weakness and immediately retorted: "Master Wen, you might as well ask yourself why you are holding this banquet today? Didn't you deliberately and carefully prepare it to please Master Jin? Master Jin has ulterior motives. There are countless people in Shangzhou who want to take his life."
"Even if the people who came here to cause trouble today were not the prince's men, there would surely be other people with ill intentions who took advantage of the situation. And your mother's misfortune... In the final analysis, it can all be attributed to your excessive greed for fame and power. Until now, you are so shameless here, trying to shirk all responsibility!"
Master Wen blushed at Xue Jinhua's words. He was so angry that he shouted, "Shut up! Stop talking nonsense!"
When Master Wen heard this, he was so angry that he trembled all over and his face turned red like liver. He widened his eyes and shouted angrily: "You ignorant woman, what do you know! Now that things have come to this, stop your sweet talk and excuses!" As he spoke, he waved his sleeves violently, and the momentum seemed to be able to stir up a gust of wind.
At this time, Master Wen had already lost his mind, roaring like a madman: "Someone come! Capture Madam Lin for me! Anyone who dares to disobey orders will be severely punished!" His voice scared the birds in the surrounding trees and they flew away.
Xue Jinhua on the side seemed unusually calm. She looked at Master Wen without changing her expression, and her beautiful eyes were filled with deep mockery at this moment.
She opened her red lips and said coldly, "Master Wen, you keep saying you want to kill me, but I'm afraid your real purpose in arresting me is not just to avenge your so-called blood feud, right?"
Master Wen was slightly startled, and a trace of barely perceptible guilt flashed across his face, but he soon returned to normal. He snorted coldly and said, "Yes, you are very smart. You are the one that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince specifically requested, and you are also the one that Young Master Jin is determined to get. As long as I capture you, no matter which side you end up in, it will be beneficial to me."
Hearing this, Xue Jinhua couldn't help but sneer in her heart.
Just now she naively thought that Mr. Wen was really grief-stricken and angry because of the loss of his loved ones, and wanted to kill himself to vent his hatred.
However, at this moment, when the truth came to light, it was discovered that in the eyes of Mr. Wen, family affection was so insignificant and far less important than those petty gains and fame and fortune.
Thinking of this, Xue Jinhua couldn't help but sigh softly and said slowly: "Master Wen, it's understandable that you want to have the best of both worlds, but everything should be done in moderation. If you just pursue benefits without scruples, I'm afraid you will end up playing with fire and getting burned, and end up in disgrace and a miserable end with no trace left."
Facing Xue Jinhua's earnest advice, Master Wen was dismissive. He curled his lips and sneered, "Humph, there's no need to bother Madam Lin about this. I know my limits, and there's no need for you to talk too much!"
Master Wen's face was gloomy and he shouted at the people behind him without any expression: "Come here! You bunch of idiots, why don't you quickly catch this criminal for me and take him away!"
At this moment, a sharp sound of "swoosh" suddenly rang out...
A sharp sword flashing with cold light fell from the sky like a meteor, with an extremely sharp momentum, whizzing past Master Wen's ears.
The speed was as fast as lightning, leaving people no time to react.
What’s amazing is that this arrow not only accurately avoided Master Wen, but also shot directly through the head of the guard standing next to him with amazing accuracy.
In an instant, blood splattered everywhere, brains burst, and the scene was extremely bloody and terrifying.
Xue Jinhua, who had been watching coldly, felt an irrepressible feeling of nausea when she saw such a tragic scene.
She suppressed her discomfort and looked quickly into the distance, trying to see clearly who had shot the fatal arrow.
When she saw who it was, she was shocked - it was Young Master Jin.
He was seen holding a longbow, his posture as straight as a pine tree, looking at this side with a stern face.
Apparently, he had been chasing after the enemy all the way here.
"Master...Master Jin." Master Wen called out with some stammering.
Gongzi Jin stared at Master Wen with cold eyes and said seriously, "Let her go!"
However, facing Young Master Jin's strong demands, Master Wen showed no intention of backing down.
He sneered and said slowly: "Master Jin, if you want me to release Madam Lin, it's not impossible, but you must agree to one condition of mine first."
Hearing this, Gongzi Jin's eyes narrowed slightly. His originally clear and bright eyes gradually became dark and deep, as if hiding an endless storm.
"Lord Wen, are you bargaining with me?" Gongzi Jin's voice was low and suppressed, revealing a strong sense of danger.
Master Wen was not afraid at all. Instead, he met Master Jin's gaze and said calmly, "Master Master Jin, you might as well understand it this way. I believe you are also very clear that this Madam Lin is the person that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is desperately looking for. If you are unwilling to agree to my conditions, then I can only hand her over to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for disposal."
"Hmph! How dare you threaten me?" Gongzi Jin laughed in anger. He gripped the longbow even tighter in his hand, as if he might attack again at any time.
"I dare not. I am only planning for myself."
Lord Wen said this in a fearful tone. He was explaining nonstop and didn't notice the strange aura emanating from Master Jin beside him.
Gongzi Jin's face was as gloomy as water, and his eyes were so cold that they seemed to be able to condense frost.
However, Lord Wen, who was immersed in self-defense, was unaware of this and continued chattering on.
"Then go to hell and plan your plans slowly!"
Suddenly, Gongzi Jin shouted angrily, like a thunder. Before he finished speaking, a sharp arrow broke through the air and flew straight towards Master Wen with a sharp sound of wind.
Lord Wen didn't even have time to react before the arrow pierced his head with lightning speed and accuracy.
In an instant, blood splattered everywhere. Lord Wen opened his eyes wide, his face full of disbelief, and then fell to the ground with a bang.
This sudden change terrified Xue Jinhua who was standing nearby. She subconsciously covered her mouth to stop the scream that was about to come out. She didn't even dare to breathe, for fear of attracting Gongzi Jin's attention.
However, in just a few moments, a group of well-trained guards in black quickly gathered around and surrounded Xue Jinhua.
They all held sharp blades and had stern expressions, waiting for Master Jin's order.
"Crown Princess, please go back." Gongzi Jin walked forward slowly, his face gloomy and serious, "I hope you won't force me to use tough measures."
Xue Jinhua's heart tightened, but she did not show any fear.
Instead, she raised her head, looked directly at Gong Zijin with a firm gaze, and asked word by word, "Who are you?"
Gongzi Jin frowned slightly, seeming a little surprised by Xue Jinhua's question, "Crown Princess, are you confused?"
"Stop pretending to be so arrogant!" Xue Jinhua snorted coldly and continued to ask, "Do you think I don't know? The real Young Master Jin has been dead for a long time. Who is the person wearing this silver mask now? And, you are the murderer who killed the Young Master, right?"
Xue Jinhua's thoughts seemed to be pulled by an invisible hand, returning to that thrilling moment.
At that time, the prince was standing there with an arrogant smile on his face.
However, in the next second, a sharp arrow came through the air like lightning and hit his head accurately.
At that moment, blood splattered everywhere, and even his eyeballs couldn't bear the weight and rolled down.
Such a fierce and vicious arrow technique is simply horrifying! And only this man in front of me can do all this.
At this moment, Gongzi Jin stared at Xue Jinhua quietly, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing an imperceptible smile: "Crown Princess, you are really smart."
Hearing this, a trace of anger and disgust flashed in Xue Jinhua's eyes. She stared at Gongzi Jin and said with gritted teeth: "It's not that I'm smart, but you are too cruel! Didn't you plan the Xue family's affairs?"
Thinking back to the events of the Xue family, Xue Jinhua became more and more suspicious.
The death of her fourth brother had always made her feel very strange. Now that she thought about it carefully, a selfish bastard like her fourth brother would struggle desperately to survive as long as there was a glimmer of hope. How could he choose to die so easily?
Therefore, the only reasonable explanation is that the fourth brother was killed by this cruel man in front of him! Thinking of this, Xue Jinhua's body trembled involuntarily, and her hatred for Gongzi Jin became stronger.
