Fortunately, Gong Xuanyu's whereabouts were very secretive when he came out this time, so he was not intercepted and killed when this person's heart was fluctuating. Secret letters were sent non-stop along the way, and Gong Xuanyu's face became more and more serious, and his heart was full of anxiety. Cangdu couldn't hide it, sometimes Lin Heng held his hand, and could even feel his hand trembling slightly.

Gong Xuanyu never shied away from him. Lin Heng thought of the content written in the secret letter and couldn't help worrying. The emperor and empress were assassinated at the same time. .

What angered him the most was that this incident was actually related to the Jia family!Today, after Prince Zhongke fell and the emperor ignored him, he began to attack the nobles headed by the four kings and eight princes, but the methods were a little more intense and underestimated the enemy.

The nobles have been in business for a long time, and their forces are intertwined. It is not easy to shovel them all at once. Today's cruel methods have aroused the ferocity of these people, and decided to fight back when they were dying. Suspicious and left the capital, these always arrogant nobles actually had a bold idea - to assassinate the emperor while the prince was away from the capital, and support the little prince, who is now only six years old, to take the throne. Wouldn't it be great if the crisis of genocide could be brought to a higher level?

They made up rumors that Concubine Xiande concealed her pregnancy, which aroused the queen's anger, and went to Luanyi Palace to check in person. Although the power in the palace has been cleaned up once after Concubine Zhengui fell, there are still many fish that slipped through the net , It is difficult to be a climate on weekdays, and the gathering together also separated the Luanyi Palace from the outside world. When the emperor got the news and came to check, a maid suddenly shot and assassinated the emperor.

In general court assassinations, the one with the highest success rate is not the carefully planned layout of those highly skilled assassins, but the most inconspicuous palace maids and eunuchs, and even the harem concubine's impromptu desperate fight, because these people are usually so inconspicuous, Such a weakness makes it hard for people to be prepared.

The Jia family had no skills, the family was old and weak, women and children, they were not involved in this matter, but a virtuous concubine was sent into the palace, who became a key part of the assassination plan, and suddenly became the first offender from a marginal figure.

Lin Heng's lungs are about to explode, why can't these bastards save some snacks? !

Leaving aside the in-law relationship between the Lin family and the Jia family, whether this matter will implicate the Lin family, let's talk about the old lady of the Jia family, Jia Baoyu, and the Sichun sisters. How sad will Daiyu be if something goes wrong?For the crime of treason, Hedang ransacked and beheaded everyone. Wang Xifeng and Jia Lian have worked hard for him for many years. Can he save him?

If he saves someone, should he hide it from Brother Xuan or tell him?No matter what you do, you can't face him again. If you don't save him, how can you face Daiyu and your mother?

Lin Heng felt that his heart was divided into two sides and was tormented by the fire. On the one hand, he was worried about Gong Xuanyu, and on the other hand, he was hesitating repeatedly because of Jia's family, Daiyu, and mother.

He got into Gong Xuanyu's arms at a loss, and hugged him tightly, wanting to give him some comfort and get some comfort from him, Gong Xuanyu hugged him back, closed his eyes, and All the emotions reflected in the dark pupils were gone.

Brother Heng probably thought he was sad.Only he himself knows in his heart that he is not trembling because of grief, he has keenly realized that he will step on this turbulent wave and step on the position of the ninety-five lords in the world, his whole heart is trembling with excitement, his eyes What beats is the thirst for power.

There are no fathers and sons in the Tian family——The position of the crown prince looks beautiful, but it is actually the most difficult position in the world. He walks on the edge of a knife in shackles, and everything is watched and controlled by others. He grits his teeth and dare not take a wrong step How many princes throughout the ages have been driven crazy by this kind of torture day and night?

Although the father still trusts him, he doesn't trust him completely. After all, the father is not too old, but he has grown up. Even under the pressure of the emperor, when the father and son stand in the same position, the father The imperial capital was on guard against him, otherwise, how could he have ignored him when he brought the case of extermination of the Zhen family to him, and acquiesced that his heir had a brutal reputation?

The only bit of warmth that the father had in his life was given to the queen mother. The mother only had the father in her heart. He and the queen were just valuable accessories. Only the younger brother was lucky and could get a little warmth.He no longer longed for family affection, and the little sadness in his heart was burned away by the raging fire of ambition in an instant.

He hugged Lin Heng tightly, feeling his breath, and slowly tightened his fingers.Only with supreme power in his hands can he have the confidence to protect the one he loves and give him everything he wants.

……

The four of them traveled all the way through the starry night, and on the third night after leaving the Western Regions, they arrived at the outskirts of the capital. Gong Xuanyu kissed him on the forehead: "Wait for me."

Lin Heng nodded, and watched his figure disappear into the night under the protection of the dark one and the dark two. For the first time, he felt that the night was so oppressive that it made people panic.He squeezed the space between his brows tiredly, leaned against the eaves of the car for a long time, then sighed, got up and returned home with lightness kung fu.

It was already very late when Lin Heng arrived home. He didn't disturb anyone. He went back to the room by himself and lay on the bed tossing and turning, unable to sleep. His mind was full of the figure of Gong Xuanyu when he left. The affairs of the Jia family are really annoying, but I can't really let go of them.

But how to manage it?Isn't it justified to kill for life?Not to mention the crime of treason, the revenge of killing one's father.No matter what Lin Heng thinks, he feels that this is a dead end, which cannot be solved at all.

Suffering until the sun rose the next day, Lin Heng didn't come up with any solution. He huddled into a ball with his head in his arms, and fell asleep in a daze until the servant who came in to clean up at regular intervals. Seeing someone on the bed, he screamed in horror before waking him up.

Swiping away the servant who prostrated himself on the ground to plead guilty, Lin Heng got up to wash up, and then went to the study, asking someone to invite Lin Shiyin to come over.

When Lin Shiyin pushed open the door of the study room and came in, she saw Lin Heng sitting listlessly on the teacher's chair, with blue eyes under her eyelids, obviously she hadn't slept well, she hurriedly closed the door, and asked in surprise, "Brother, what's wrong? When he came back suddenly, he didn't say a word, but hurriedly called me over."

Lin Heng rested his forehead and sighed: "I came back last night, it was too late, so I didn't bother you. How is the Jia family?"

Lin Shiyin was surprised: "Brother, do you know? The palace has completely blocked the news, and we have no channels to find out the news in the palace, so now our eyes are darkened, and we don't know anything. We only know that the Xiande Concubine seems to be involved. There is a big case, the Jia family is now surrounded by the forbidden army, only allowed to enter but not to leave, I have already ordered our people not to act rashly, lest they be discovered by the forbidden army, and they will not be able to speak clearly.

Lin Heng nodded: "Let's leave it like this for the time being. The Jia family's affairs are very involved, so you must not interfere."

Lin Shiyin frowned hesitantly: "Brother...do you know anything?" Actually, what she was really curious about was that all the information about the Red Chamber would be gathered to her, and would only be sent to her brother after being screened. Surging, many news have no clue, but my brother seems to know a lot about these secret things, why?

Lin Shiyin had some bad premonitions, perhaps out of intuition, a thought suddenly flashed in her mind, and then the more she thought about it, the more shocked she became, it was unbelievable and at the same time there seemed to be traces to follow, she thought of the first bonsai peony, And concubine Xiande's specious jokes before visiting her relatives, and my brother disappearing from time to time for no reason at all.

"Brother, what is your relationship with the prince?"

Lin Heng was considering his words, answering her previous question, when he suddenly heard her asking this, he couldn't help being stunned for a moment, his whole face seemed to be on fire, and even the tips of his ears were red with embarrassment.

Lin Shiyin felt a chill in her heart.In this situation, what else does she not understand?She clenched her fists tightly and gritted her teeth thinking that she now understands how her brother disliked Li Xun Huan back then.If the bastard who abducted her brother was right in front of her eyes, she wouldn't be able to resist tearing him up!Sure enough, this bastard had no good intentions from the very beginning!

Lin Heng pursed his lips, glanced at her expression, and said sternly: "He is the love of my life. Apart from him, there will be no other person in this life."

Lin Shiyin's heart sank to the bottom of the valley, his brother had sunk too deep.

But the other party is the crown prince of a country, the future emperor, even if he is sincere now, can he really be the same in the future?Today's relationship with the empress is a good story, but doesn't the harem still have this concubine and that beauty?It's just not letting them have children to threaten the queen's status, it is already a model of emperor's love, if that person treats his brother like this in the future, how should he deal with himself?

What's more, my brother is a man, and he can't even be with him openly, let alone the issue of heirs.She is such a good brother, is she going to be a secret lover for the rest of her life?

Just thinking about it, Lin Shiyin felt distressed to death.

She looked at Lin Heng with tears in her eyes, and choked up, "I'm afraid he will hurt you."

Lin Heng's eyelashes fluttered slightly, he shook his head, and said firmly: "I believe he will not betray me."

He walked over, hugged Lin Shiyin gently, and patted her on the back comfortingly: "Hey, don't cry, don't worry, I will take care of it. The palace has not been peaceful recently, and something big may happen. You must not meddle in things, you know?"

Lin Shiyin nodded obediently, and Lin Heng patted her on the head and asked, "How are Daiyu and Jiu'er?"

Lin Shiyin calmed down her emotions and replied: "Jiu'er is fine, but Daiyu is often worried about Jia's family and Xue's family. Recently, she doesn't even play the piano, and I have to watch by the side when I eat, otherwise I will be in trouble." He refuses to eat well, hey... this is inevitable, after all, we have been together for so many years, even cats and dogs have feelings, let alone people? Even if I don't like Jia's family, I still have to worry about it Those beautiful sisters, what's wrong with them? If we talk about the benefits of wealth, who has enjoyed how much? There is no shortage of fear.

Lin Heng sighed: "I'll go and see them later. Before the dust settles, the Jia family will be fine for the time being, and those who should come can't avoid it. There's no need to be worried from now on and wear yourself down."

I only hope that the emperor in the palace can survive this hurdle.
