After the people from the Zhao family followed Lin Ran to the restaurant, they didn't wait for anyone to come out until it was dark. They felt that something was wrong, so they hurried back to the embroidery workshop to inform Zhao Fuyun.

Zhao Fuyun had no way of knowing why Lin Ran went to the wine shop, but it was strange that the person suddenly disappeared in the wine shop. She kept watch all night, but she didn't wait for the man to come out, and then went to the Lin mansion to investigate, but he didn't go back.

Thinking about it, she was in trouble.

Thinking about it deeply, if she saved Lin Ran, the relationship would be closer. Therefore, people went to the wine shop to check and find out Lin Ran's whereabouts.

The members of the Zhao family searched secretly, but Lin Ran woke up slowly after sleeping for a day and a night.

When I woke up, I knew what my dad was saying, moved my hands and feet, and found that my hands and feet were tied, and there was no decoration in the house in front of me, not even a dining table and a couch.

The rope was an ordinary hemp rope, and she couldn't get rid of it. She looked at the environment in the house depressedly. There were thick cobwebs in the corners, and the window sills hadn't been cleaned for a long time.

She patted her dizzy head and sorted out the things in front of her. What is Dad doing?

There was no charcoal fire in the room, and it was gloomy and cold. Her hands and feet were numb from the cold. After a while, someone opened the door and entered.She raised her eyes to see that it was Father, and felt helpless, "Father, why are you tying me up?"

"You're disobedient, so I'm going to tie you up." Mu Neng walked over and found that the room was a bit cold, so he asked someone to fetch firewood and built a fire by himself, only then did he feel the heat.

Lin Ran was very quiet, neither crying nor fussing. After the firewood was lit, he felt slightly better and was a little more wary of Mu Neng.

Or Ah Liang was right, Father was uneasy and kind, she opened the mouth first: "I will not agree to the two ways you mentioned, you should give up this heart, and I will treat Ah Liang well."

"You children always pick up good things to say, and don't think about the situation in front of you. Wei Xun can't stop the front, and Xinyang is bound to leave Luoyang. How can His Majesty rest assured that he will definitely take you as a hostage? Then you It will also implicate Ah Liang, I will promise you?" Mu Liang didn't look at her, and went to add matches.

He was afraid that Lin Ran wouldn't be able to figure it out, so he explained to her in detail: "In the battle of Qian Qi, we were always at the forefront. What is it?"

"Times have changed, and General Wei has also improved." Lin Ran explained that after so many years, Wei Xun might become a general who resists one side.

"Don't come here to fool me. I eat more salt than you. If you don't choose, you can stay here." Mu Neng didn't listen to her. Seeing her stubborn look, he couldn't help but tugged at her ear: "I don't know what to say." I really want to whip you up and throw you half to death in the south of the Yangtze River, where is there so much trouble."

"My lord, will you be able to reason?" Lin Ran followed his hand and tilted his head, handed his hands to him, and begged, "Father, let me go, will you?"

"Have you decided how to choose?" Mu Neng didn't move and looked at her seriously.

Lin Ran blinked, his eyes shone by the firelight, and said slyly, "I'll listen to Ah Liang, and I will do whatever she tells me to do."

Mu Neng was stunned by her, "Believe it or not, I'll beat you to death."

"Smash me to death, Ah Liang will be helpless, you smoke." Lin Ran raised his head, fearless, not to mention him, even King Ping would not dare to beat her to death in private.

"Don't cry when you don't see the coffin, starve you, starve you for three days, you will know the hardship." Mu Neng couldn't tell her, so as not to be persuaded by her, he walked away, "Don't come to me if you don't think so."

He hid Lin Ran in an unoccupied private house, and told Mu Huai to keep it safe, and told him to only give him water, not food, so that after a few meals, his teeth would stop sharpening.

Mu Huai didn't dare to disobey the prince's order, but the little Patriarch has a temper that is soft rather than hard, so it's useless to tie her up.

After the prince left, he went into the house to persuade him, "Why don't the master agree to the prince first, and then say when you see the princess, why are you flexible? The prince has a bad temper, so you should let it go."

He spoke earnestly, but Lin Ran didn't listen, and instead stretched out his bound hands to him: "Master Mu, will you untie it for me?"

Mu Huai retreated: "This subordinate wants to untie it, but he doesn't have the courage. The subordinate cannot disobey what the prince ordered."

"Then Master Mu will just go out and keep watch. I'll think about it alone. Is there any food or water to drink?" Lin Ran's mouth was dry, and he didn't know how long he had been in a coma. Thinking about what happened today, he felt a headache. Those elders They don't know how to unite and fight against themselves.

What a loser...

After drinking the water, Mu Huai withdrew and looked at her worriedly: "If the Patriarch needs it, he will tell his subordinates."

"Understood." Lin Ran lay down on the ground again, with the fire, he didn't feel cold anymore.

The firewood was all dry, and when it burned, the flames were very bright. Lin Ran lay close to him, feeling a little hot, and stepped back. The ropes on his hands and ankles made him uncomfortable, and he sat up again.

After seeing the fire, he thought of a way, gritted his teeth and put the rope on his wrist on the fire.

After just a few breaths, my wrists were so hot that I shrank back uselessly, and my mouth was so hot that I couldn't speak. Those heroic things were all fake, and when the rope burned away, my hands were also burned.

She struggled twice, but still didn't break free, and sighed as she looked at the fire, her dad always cheated on her.

Even if she is a hostage, Ah Liang will not be in danger, she will try her best to ensure Ah Liang's safety, if she can't do this, she is not worthy to marry Ah Liang.

No matter how bad it was, she sent Ah Liang to the north and brought him back after the situation was settled down.

The light outside dimmed again, and waiting was not an option. After thinking about it, she followed the method just now.

As long as the hemp rope is softened by burning, it will not be difficult to break free with strength.

When the sky darkened again, the people of the Zhao family still couldn't find Lin Ran's whereabouts, and even Xin Yang also found out that something was wrong.

She went to the princess mansion for two consecutive days without seeing anyone, and realized something was wrong, so she sent someone to find someone in the embroidery workshop, but the steward said that the master hadn't been there for two days.

Lin Ran usually went to the embroidery workshop these days, and it was a little strange not to go for two days in a row. She went to ask Zhao Jiuniang herself.

I don't want to, and I don't know anything about it. I asked her past managers, and they all gave the same answer.

Only Lin Ran's maidservant realized that the day before yesterday, Prince Mu asked the Patriarch to go to the restaurant.

Helpless, she had no choice but to go to Mu Wangfu to see Mu Neng.

Mu Neng didn't want to see her, so he turned her away directly, making a fuss.Xinyang was not of a casual nature either, he stopped him at the morning court the next day, and asked for him directly.

The morning court is just around the corner, and there are many people around to watch, Mu Neng is unwilling to stand still, and caresses the lines on his official robe, "It's none of my business that you are looking for your daughter, I asked her to talk, and where did she go, how do I know?" .”

"Mu Neng, don't make a fuss too far." Xinyang lowered his voice, unwilling to make a fuss in front of others.

Mu Neng is not afraid of her, and he bluntly mocked: "You have the ability to bring her back to the princess mansion and recognize her ancestors. What's the use of stopping me? If you can't control the children yourself, come to me? If my family Mu Liang disappears, I will surely I won't be looking for you."

What was said inside and outside was full of sarcasm, Xinyang was so angry that he could do nothing, if he stopped him, he would delay his morning court, so he endured the anger in his heart and let him enter the palace.

She gave in, and Mu Neng was extremely chic, dusted off the dust on his body, and strode in.

After going down to court, Xinyang stepped out of the Zichen Hall, and someone whispered in her ear, her brows and eyes darkened, and she led the person away in a big stride, her footsteps in a hurry.

Mu Neng walked her half a step slowly, not knowing where she was going, but remembering that Lin Ran was with Mu Huai, he never cared.Seeing that something was wrong with the two of them, Ba Wang came over as if to join in the fun, and patted his shoulder: "Did you hide his daughter?"

"No, can I hide it?"

"It's true if you think about it. Patriarch Lin is smarter than Luo Qing, and most people can't hide it, so I asked you where you hid him?" To hide is really kicked in the head by a donkey.

Mu Neng refused to admit it, "When will I kidnap someone, do you have evidence?"

"Just wait, if Xinyang finds the evidence, your Prince Mu's mansion will have to be overturned, and Lin Ran won't rebuild it for you." After the eight kings finished speaking, they patted their buttocks and left.

Mu Neng stood at the bottom of the steps and stared blankly, fearing that the naive man would find out something, he couldn't rest assured, so he went back to the private house in the north of the city.

When I went, it was still silent.

Mu Huai leaned against the porch and saw the prince saluting.Mu Neng pushed the door open, but there was no sound from inside. Where could anyone be?

"Where is the person?" Mu Neng roared, and looked left and right. There was not even a fly in the empty room, and there was a burnt rope halfway by the fire. He ran to the window, looked at the corner of the wall, and cursed unconsciously. : "Run away, what do you think?"

Mu Huai felt guilty, but still did not forget to argue: "My subordinates don't know that you lit the fire, and she ran away after burning the rope."

"Don't you know to come in and have a look at any time?"

"The head of the family said she wanted to be quiet, but the subordinates didn't go in." Mu Huai's voice became smaller and smaller, and finally lowered her head.

After Mu Neng picked up the rope on the ground, he was annoyed and wanted to grab the little thing back. Once caught, it would be difficult to catch it again, so he rushed out of the house angrily with half of the rope in his hand.

****

Lin Ran returned to the mansion at dawn, and she was prepared in her heart, fearing that someone would catch her in front of the mansion gate, she simply climbed over the wall and entered the house, rubbing the wound on her wrist, the pain was so painful that she almost fell off the wall.

There was no one in the main house, so she went to the Lin Si. She was so frightened that the green tea in Lin Si's hand was spilled, and she hurriedly turned the wheelchair: "Where did you come from? Look at the clothes on your body, how did they get burned?" gone."

"It's nothing, just a little pain. Is there any medicine for Uncle?" Lin Ran didn't care about her clothes, she sat down and collapsed, and called her maid to find some food.

Lin Si gets up very early every day, watching the morning scenery on the porch without anything to do, and his daily life is very regular.

He turned the wheelchair, approached the young man, smelled the faint smell of blood on her body, and was startled, "You are injured."

"My wrist was burnt. I pushed Uncle inside. It's cold outside." Lin Ran avoided his gaze and pushed him into the room. The maidservant brought in the breakfast, she took it, drank a bowl of porridge, and turned away the maidservant.

Lin Si couldn't see clearly the oozing wound on the cuff when he raised his sleeve, but he was used to seeing her snow-white skin, and when he saw her for a while, he cried out in surprise, "Your hand was burned."

"Well, there's no difference, just let me eat." Lin Ran didn't care, he was so hungry that he didn't have the strength to climb over the wall, he drank two bowls of porridge before he regained his strength, looking at the glutinous rice cakes and spring rolls, he felt a little disgusted .

She stopped and said: "It's nothing serious, but I want to pick up Ah Liang back, can Uncle help?"

It is impossible to rob people, and you have to use clever methods.

The maid brought the ointment, Lin Si took it, and told her to invite the doctor.

Because of his presence in the princess mansion, Lin Ran specially invited a famous doctor from Jiangnan to treat the burns.

After the doctor came, he saw the wound on his wrist, saw Lin Ran's calm expression, and did not say anything else. He mixed the medicine for the burn and said, "Pay attention to your diet, mainly light, and don't touch water. Be careful when you fall asleep." The wound, it is easy to rub the wound in winter, after applying the wound medicine, wrap it with gauze, don't force it at will, it is not good to leave a scar."

After earnestly instructing, he prepared the wound medicine and asked people to boil some medicine soup to clear the fire.

After Lin Ran got the order, he didn't pay attention to it. Lin Si sensed something was wrong and asked, "How did you get hurt?"

"Probably the head was hurt by a donkey kick, hiss...be gentle." Lin Ran couldn't bear it anymore, and flinched twice.

She kept silent, and Lin Si also guessed a little bit of the source, "Did Prince Mu hurt it?"

"No, I hurt it myself." Lin Ran still didn't speak, but when the maid came to apply the ointment, she shrank her hands in vain.The maid pulled her hand back, "The master is hiding, aren't you very proud? Just now, it was too fast to climb over the wall, and you passed it in the blink of an eye. Princess Mu will praise you when she sees it."

"Shut up, let you talk too much." Lin Ran scolded, and her perseverance to resist the pain faded after she was full. She turned her head to look at Lin Si, diverting her attention: "Uncle, did you think of it?"

"Do you want a civil war or a military war?" Lin Si was not polite, and there was no way to deal with Mu Neng. He was arrogant, and they were also arrogant and unreasonable.

Lin Ran's eyelashes trembled from the pain, and beads of sweat ooze from the tip of his nose, "What is Wen Zhan?"

"You and Princess Mu are married by a bright matchmaker. If the prince takes him away without any reason, you can go to Jing Zhaoyin to sue him."

Lin Ran blinked, and the sweat on his forehead slid down his eyelashes, "Then what is Wu Zhan?"

"You are right. Take someone to the palace to be an important person. The Lin family has a lot of management and more staff. If they close their business for one day, they will besiege the palace for one day. The siege will be tight, and it will be enough in three or two days."

"Martial warfare seems to be unreasonable, and there are too many soldiers in the palace, so we can't fight." Lin Ran shook his head, his father's fiery temper, he could really cut it with a knife.

Lin Si was eating porridge, and when he saw her face turning pale from pain, he felt ruthless, and suggested: "You are so afraid, the soldiers are good at fighting, you can ask His Highness Xinyang to borrow some soldiers, and when the time comes to fight, you will not be shy." .”

Lin Ran didn't want to be so stiff. After all, he was not good at fighting, so he shook his head and said, "Wen Zhan is better."

Seeing that she was still in awe of Mu Neng, Lin Si shook his head and said, "Why don't you try both civil and military battles? Prince Mu loves face. If you tell him like this, he will be furious. If you hide and don't see him, you will be afraid." .Jing Zhaoyin is a capable person, you can give him enough benefits, he doesn't need you to come forward, he will handle it properly for you."

Seeing Lin Ran's refusal, he persuaded again: "If you don't, there will be next time, if he has a slight problem, he will let the princess go back to her mother's house. If you solve it once, there will be sequelae."

"That's true." Lin Ran lowered her wrist, wrapped in several layers of gauze lightly, so she wouldn't feel stuffy. After staring at the whiteness, her heart was agitated, "How about I try?"

"You can give it a try. I'll write a pleading for you, and you go back and change into clean clothes." Lin Si encouraged.

After taking the medicine, Lin Ran went back to the house to cleanse herself and take a bath. When she returned to the yard, the servant girl led Xin Yang over.

Xinyang came from the Zichen Palace, the court clothes were not changed, he looked her up and down, she had been on the battlefield for a long time, she was very sensitive, after smelling the smell of blood, he grabbed her hand: "Who tied you up again?"

"Just let go, and if you pinch it again, it will be useless." Lin Ran wrinkled her face in pain, and took a deep breath. Xinyang was so frightened that she let go of her. It was quite strange to see that her hands were tied with gauze.

Xinyang no longer worried, looked at the burnt hem of her robe, "Did you come out of the fire pit?"

"Almost, His Highness Xinyang borrowed some good people from me to pay the wages." Lin Ran led her in, and the maidservant brought hot water. She took off her outer robe and twisted the veil in the water by herself. Xinyang snatched it away. her veil.

"Didn't the doctor tell you not to touch the water?" Xinyang scolded and handed her the wrung-out handkerchief, fearing that she would be uncomfortable, and said with an excuse: "What do you want someone to do, can't you steal him?"

"Uncle said to ask someone to go to the palace to ask for someone." Lin Ran said casually, and wiped the dirt on his neck in front of the bronze mirror. Remembering that Jing Zhaoyin was from Princess Xinyang's mansion, he couldn't help softening his tone, "I Remember that Jing Zhaoyin is your man?"

"What do you want him to do?" Xinyang stared at her slyly, with a faint smile on her pale face, wanton and confident.

Lin Ran rummaged through the closet to find a suitable robe, "I'm going to file a complaint, hoping he can help."

She didn't know where her robe was, it was a mess, and she wasn't used to calling her maid.Xinyang frowned, "What are the maidservants in your house doing?"

"Ah Liang sorted it out, I'm not used to other people." Lin Ran hid his abacus in the cabinet, felt ashamed to be seen by the maid, so he dug out a blue robe and changed it at will.

Her dependence on Mu Liang exceeded Xinyang's imagination, making her unable to say a word. After she changed, the maid sent a pleading paper.

She took it and saw that the sharp words were like Lin Si's style. She understood what the two of them were thinking, and she didn't try to stop her, but agreed instead: "Jing Zhaoyin knows your current status and won't make it difficult for you. You just go Yes, he will help you go to the palace to discuss with Mu Neng."

Lin Ran glanced at her gratefully, took the pleading paper and left the mansion. When he reached the threshold, Xinyang said, "You and Mu Liang, do you really not regret it? If you don't change for the rest of your life, I won't do anything to beat the mandarin ducks." If you agree to this matter, if you change your mind in the future, if Mu Neng does nothing to you, I will not agree."

She and Luo Qing are both lovers, and she has seen what Mu Liang has done for so many years, even if it is not ethical, they are already married.In the end, there is no way to break up, but Lin Ran's mind is unstable, so if he disagrees at this time, he can also leave.

Once you make up your mind, you can't let it go, she can't tolerate people who let it go.

Lin Ran was surprised when she made her statement for the first time, and turned to look at her: "Your Highness, really?"

"When did I ever lie to you?" Xinyang was sure, no matter how bad she was, she would never deceive a junior.

Lin Ran looked at her seriously: "Of course I won't change it, on the contrary, His Highness owes her, and there must be an explanation after all."

"You mean marriage?"

"nature."

Lin Ran's tone was not kind, which made Xinyang slightly disgusted, and he smiled coldly: "I didn't bring up the matter of getting married. I just conveyed the meaning of Turkic to His Majesty. How could it be my fault?"

"Your Highness thinks it's reasonable, so it's reasonable." Lin Ran didn't try to defend himself, no matter how he cares about what happened back then, he couldn't make sense.

Lin Ran turned around and left without saying a word, disdainful and stubborn, which made Xinyang's heart cold, and remembered that she was raised by Mu Liang, so he didn't care about her attitude.

It's good to be alive, why bother about where her heart is, besides, she has grown up long ago, her mind is better than hers, and she has her own ideas.

****

Lin Ran took the boy and rode his horse to Jing Zhaoyin's place. He sat on the horse and ordered the boy to beat the drums, while he sat on the horse safely.

After the sound of the drum, the yamen servant raised his head, and when he saw the man on horseback, he retracted again.

After a while, Jing Zhaoyin ran out without touching the ground, straightened his clothes, his plump body looked very simple and honest, his eyes were also not big, and the flesh on his face squeezed his eyes.

As soon as he ran, the flesh on his stomach moved. Lin Ran saw him for the first time, and was amused by his funny appearance. She got off the horse and gave a half-respect: "Master Wei is bothering you."

"Don't bother, don't bother, Patriarch Lin just give orders if there is something to do, and the subordinates will try their best to do it." Wei Hanzhou squinted his eyes and smiled, leaning over to be a petty person without feeling ashamed.

The sound of the drum attracted many people, he bent down to ask Lin Ran to come in and speak, Lin Ran was not polite, strode in, and handed him the pleading paper: "I'm here to sue, Lord Wei, can you take it?"

"Your pleading paper must be accepted, definitely accepted." Wei Hanzhou quickened his pace, a little unable to keep up with her pace, stopped after receiving the pleading paper, glanced at it, felt a headache, and had to accept it.

After biting the bullet and finished reading, the smile on his face froze, he wondered: "Who dares to go to the Ninth Prince's mansion, why don't you go and try His Highness Xinyang, she is about the same rank, and she can talk easily, How many grades are lower for the lower officials, I'm afraid he won't listen."

"Your Majesty Wei, just do it. Prince Mu has no reason. You can go to play His Majesty. After the matter is completed, you will not be treated badly." Lin Ran tempted him with benefits, and with His Highness Xinyang around, Wei Hanzhou would not refuse.

Wei Hanzhou was embarrassed for a while, the flesh on his face twitched a few times, he gritted his teeth and said, "Go down and try."

"Your Majesty Wei, just do it. His Highness Xinyang will be responsible for any accidents. The Lin family has a village in the suburbs. The scenery is good. Madam can go to escape the summer next year." Lin Ran generously said, a village with a few thousand taels of silver is not considered a bad treatment.

"Patriarch Lin is very polite. It is an honor to serve you." Wei Hanzhou smiled and did not refuse. His Highness Xinyang knew that it was her reward. As a subordinate, he would not refuse foolishly.

He is very good at handling affairs, Lin Ran didn't talk too much, looked at the yamen servants in the distance, and added: "It's good for the brothers who are traveling to go to Lin's Embroidery Workshop to make some new clothes for the wife and children for the New Year."

Wei Hanzhou thanked him with a smile, he hadn't met such a generous master for a long time, and hurriedly took the servants to the palace.

Lin Ran went back to the house to sleep, and asked the steward to continue. Tomorrow, all the shops of the Lin family will be closed, and Wei Hanzhou can't do it, so he will ask someone to visit the door to ask for someone.

After lying down, I felt pain all over my body, and it was so painful that I couldn't sleep again.

As soon as she turned around, the maid came over in a hurry: "Patriarch, Dong Zhao's family is here to see you."

"Which Zhao Dong's family? No, just say that I was injured by the villain and cannot go out to meet guests." Lin Ran wrapped himself in the quilt and rubbed against the wound. The pain was excruciating. Seeing the maid standing stupidly, she put the pillow Throw it over: "Hurry up, don't stand in front of me."

She was always docile, but she suddenly got angry, which made the servant girl tremble, and she left without saying a word.

Wei Hanzhou in the other side went to the palace in a carriage, and asked people to surround the main entrance, so that he could enter the mansion through the door.

After entering the mansion, he was kicked out by the concubine without saying a few words, and kicked out without seeing the prince. Wei Hanzhou looked simple and honest, but his mind was not simple. So go home.

Standing in front of the gate of the mansion and thinking about it, he asked someone to fetch the gong, and said: "When you see Princess Mu, your wife and children each have a few sets of new clothes. Lin's Embroidery Shop is up to you to choose. If you can't see them all, go home and find them." Madam and children cry."

There was light in the eyes of dozens of people, and he handed the pleading paper to one of them: "Recite, beat the gongs and drums again and again, remember not to enter the mansion, otherwise the Shaoqing of Dali Temple will be your role model."

We all know that Shaoqing's leg was broken by the Nine Kings when he broke into the mansion. The yamen servants looked at each other, and after knowing what they knew, one of them beat the gong and the other read the pleadings: "The order of the Lin family Lin Ran from Nancheng and the princess Mu Liang's parents, The words of the matchmaker, the harmony of the harp..."
