The county horse is a medicine jar

From Nanqing Qinkou, Lin Sishen learned that five years ago, Sima Chu Tianjin of Pingliang City was murdered by Sun Wenqian, and was labeled a traitor for no reason.And the Chu family was slaughtered overnight by Sun Wenqian's troops, not even a single servant and maidservant was left alive.

Fortunately, Nan Qingqin happened to be seriously ill that year, and was sent by her father to a nunnery outside the city to recuperate.After the accident, the master in the nunnery received the wind and sent Nan Qingqin away overnight, which allowed her to escape.

But I feel sorry for the kind masters in the nunnery. Not long after sending Nan Qingqin away, the nunnery suddenly caught fire and burned all the people in the nunnery to death.

Nan Qingqin was only twelve years old back then, and her family suffered such a catastrophe. She had no one to rely on in this world, so she could only seek refuge in the Qin family with whom she had a marriage contract since childhood.

But the Qin family was afraid of being implicated, so they let out the word, saying that they had broken off the engagement with the Chu family in the early years, and the two families had nothing to do with each other, and then even cruelly drove Nan Qingqin away.

Although Nan Qingqin is just a weak woman, she is extremely resolute and resolute. She has already secretly vowed to avenge her family.After being driven away by the Qin family, she heard that Sun Wenqian had been promoted and became the guardian.

She traveled thousands of miles, begging all the way to Dingxi City alone, and then, she voluntarily sold herself to Lianyi Tower.Became a nobleman in Lianyi Tower, and only hoped to have a chance to get close to Sun Wenqian and kill him to avenge his blood.

Over the past few years, relying on her beauty and talent, she has become the number one oiran of Lianyi Building in one fell swoop. Countless people have come here admiringly, spending a lot of money just to see the beauty.

Then, a year ago, she finally waited for Sun Wenqian to come. As she wished, Sun Wenqian, a hypocrite, was really fascinated by her. He would come to Lianyi Tower every once in a while, just to listen to her play a song.

Nan Qingqin had always wanted to take the opportunity to kill Sun Wenqian, but Sun Wenqian was very cunning and cautious.As long as he went out, he would bring many guards by his side, and even the tea, wine and food were specially prepared and brought from his own residence.

Several assassinations failed, but fortunately, Nan Qingqin did not reveal her identity. Sun Wenqian was still very obsessed with her, and even spent a lot of money to treat Nan Qingqin as a canary, and just kept her in the Lianyi Building.

I only feel sorry for Nan Qingqin, the enemy is close in front of her eyes, but she can't kill the enemy with her own hands, and she has to obey him in every possible way. She suffers every day like walking on the edge of a knife and a sea of ​​fire.

After hearing Nan Qingqin's tearful and desperate complaint, Lin Sishen couldn't help feeling a little pity for this poor woman.She stood up slowly, took a silk handkerchief from her sleeve, and handed it to Nan Qingqin: "The girl's life experience is so miserable, it is really embarrassing."

Nan Qingqin took the silk handkerchief from Lin Sishen with both hands, lowered her eyes sadly, and slowly bowed her body and said, "My lord, the little girl has nothing else to live in this world, but to clear up the grievances of her clan one day, looking at that dog Sun Wenqian Thieves subdue the law."

Lin Sishen nodded, she stared fixedly at Nan Qingqin, and after thinking for a moment, a sharp light flashed in her eyes quickly: "It's just that there is still one thing I don't understand, and I hope the girl can clarify it."

Nan Qingqin thought for a moment, then murmured: "My lord, please, the little girl must know everything."

...

The sandalwood in the incense burner had been burned out, and Lin Sishen and Nan Qingqin had been together in the private room for half an hour in a blink of an eye.

What should be said, Nan Qingqin has already told Lin Sishen. As for what Lin Sishen still wants to know, Nan Qingqin is no longer willing to speak up. She just asks Lin Sishen to investigate the unjust case five years ago, maybe she can learn from it. get an answer.

Having said that, Lin Sishen had no choice but to give up, just as she was about to say goodbye and leave, the old bustard suddenly ran up to knock on the door in a hurry, saying that Lord Protector was on his way, and wanted to invite Miss Qin back to her room.

Hearing the panic and urging of the bustard outside, Lin Sishen walked to the door in a calm manner, and was about to open the door, but she suddenly turned around to look at Nan Qingqin, and asked thoughtfully: "I and the girl are only a couple of times. Why do you trust me so much? Is it possible that you are not afraid to tell Sun Wenqian about your life?"

Nan Qingqin raised her eyes and smiled faintly. Her pale face was as calm as a pool of stagnant water. She looked at Lin Sishen fixedly and said, "When I first saw the lord, the little girl knew that the lord and Sun Wenqian were not on the same road. ...Your Excellency is a member of the Four Princes faction."

Hearing this, Lin Sishen was startled, and then said with a dumb smile: "It seems that I was mistaken, I didn't expect that the girl even dabbled in government affairs."

If it weren't for the Huiji man, how could he have stayed by Sun Wenqian's side for a year without being identified.How could he guess Lin Sishen's identity the first time he met her.

The two of them knew each other, Nan Qingqin lowered her eyes and bowed her body: "The little girl sends you off respectfully."

Lin Sishen nodded, cupped his hands and said, "Miss, take care, I will take my leave."

It was already midnight when Lin Sishen left from Lianyi Pavilion and returned to the official post. As soon as he returned to the official post, Lin Sishen asked Mo Zhu to pack his bags, planning to go out to Pingliang City after the city gate opened early in the morning.

While packing his bags, Mo Zhu tilted his head to glance at Lin Sishen who was flipping through the ledger at the table, and couldn't help asking: "That woman is just a family story, did you believe her so easily?"

Lin Sishen flipped through the account book page by page, and replied without raising his head, "I don't believe her completely, but she mentioned something today, which made me pay special attention."

Mo Zhu stopped, turned around and asked, "What's the matter?"

Lin Sishen finally put down the ledger, she narrowed her eyes slightly, and a meaningful smile appeared on her lips: "Five years ago in Pingliang City, many people disappeared strangely, which is very similar to the disappearance case in Dingxi City today. Chu Sima The disappearance case is also being investigated, and the ridiculous thing is that the case has not been clarified yet, but Sun Wenqian found out that he was suspected of treason, and more than a hundred members of the family were executed on the spot, leaving no one alive."

Mo Zhu was startled when he heard the words, and immediately came to his senses: "In this way, could it be that Chu Sima found out some clues, knew something he shouldn't know, and was framed by Sun Wenqian to silence him?"

Lin Sishen stood up, with a cold smile on his face: "It's not certain yet, but the disappearance case in Pingliang City is definitely related to the disappearance case in Dingxi City. I want to see what is hidden in Longyou It is such a big secret that it can implicate more than a hundred members of the Chu Sima clan to suffer such a disaster."

Mo Zhu looked at Lin Sishen worriedly, and said hesitantly, "My lord, Your Majesty asked you to come to Longyou to investigate the corruption case, but now you seem to..."

Lin Sishen instantly understood why Mo Zhu said that suddenly, and she asked with a smile, "Mo Zhu, you did my investigation too deeply, and caused disaster like Chu Sima?"

Mo Zhu nodded, frowned and said softly: "As the saying goes, a strong dragon can't overwhelm a local snake. We are now in the territory under the jurisdiction of Sun Wenqian, and there are not many guards around the young master. The place where the emperor is far away, if Sun Wenqian is right The young master has murderous intentions, and he can continue to live freely and freely if he pushes it to other people at will."

Of course Lin Sishen knew about this, but she didn't seem to take it seriously, she smiled lightly: "You can't catch a tiger if you don't enter the tiger's den. The more dangerous the situation is, the easier it is to find out the secrets hidden in Longyou. How about you and me?" Let me make a bet, I guess Sun Wenqian will never send someone to stop us when we leave the city tomorrow morning."

Mo Zhu also knew that she couldn't persuade Lin Sishen, so she bit her lip and glanced at Lin Sishen, then turned around and continued to pack her bags: "Since the young master has said so, why should the servant rush to lose."

Lin Sishen walked slowly to the window, and sighed softly: "In this Dingxi city, I'm still safe, but when I leave the city tomorrow, I should really be very careful."

The bright moon hanging in the sky was extraordinarily bright, Lin Sishen looked up from a distance, and suddenly lost his mind.

Mo Zhu packed his bags, poured a cup of tea for Lin Sishen, and when he turned around, he saw her staring at the moon without saying a word.She walked behind Lin Sishen, pursed her lips and asked softly, "Your Excellency, are you thinking about the princess?"

Lin Sishen smiled, and murmured in a daze, "I don't know if she will come."

When he said this, the light in Lin Sishen's eyes suddenly softened, and there seemed to be a faint sense of loss.

Mo Zhu put the teacup by the window sill without saying a word, and then withdrew out tactfully. She leaned against the door in a daze, and did not recover for a long time.

In the house, Lin Sishen was also leaning against the window sill in a daze, with a mist rising from the warm tea beside her, which seemed to blur Lin Sishen's vision, she sighed faintly, rubbed the jade pendant at her waist, and asked Said: "I don't know what she is doing at this time, but just like me, she is thinking about..."

-------------------------------------

At the same time, on the official road a hundred miles outside Dingxi City, a carriage slowly stopped on the road in the dark.

After coming to a complete stop, the driver hurriedly jumped out of the carriage and knelt respectfully by the side of the road.

After a while, a woman slowly stepped down from the carriage, and saw that the woman was wearing a snow-white dress, with a curtain on her head, wide eaves all around, and tulle hanging down from the eaves, which was as long as her neck, covering her eyes. live countenance.

The woman stepped on the dusty official road, a pair of clear eyes behind the tulle slowly lifted up, silently looking at the dark night.

The coachman knelt on the ground respectfully, and saw a piece of clothes slowly drooping in front of his eyes. On the spotless snow-white clothes, exquisite hidden patterns were embroidered with silver thread, and then suddenly and silently passed by, There was a breeze exuding a faint fragrance.

In the blink of an eye, when the coachman raised his head, the woman in white wearing the curtain disappeared without a trace like a ghost.The coachman was not surprised, but got into the carriage on his own, and drove the horse forward with a whip.
