Lin Sishen rubbed her drowsy head, sat up slowly and walked a few steps in the study. She was still wearing the night clothes she hadn't changed from last night.Mo Zhu knocked on the door just in time, and brought Lin Sishen's change of clothes.

While Lin Sishen was changing clothes behind the screen, Mo Zhu helped her arrange the brocade quilt on the cloud couch, and then asked suspiciously, "Young master, why are you so careless today?"

Lin Sishen adjusted her collar with downcast eyes, and walked out from behind the screen. She was worried, stared at Mo Zhu and frowned and asked, "Mo Zhu, did you notice something strange in the courtyard last night?"

Mo Zhu thought about it carefully: "Last night when the servants got up at night, they saw candles burning in the princess's house."

Lin Sishen's eyes lit up, she had guessed that singer Meng Yan was merciful and didn't do anything to her, and sent her back.But thinking about it carefully, it shouldn't be like this. Even if Meng Yange didn't kill her, he wouldn't have sent her back to the General's Mansion in such a proper way. It's probably someone else who sent her back.

She was wondering if Shen Qinghou had sent someone to rescue her, so she casually asked Mo Zhu what she had found last night. Since the candles were still burning in Shen Qinghou's room in the middle of the night, she presumably hadn't fallen asleep yet.

If the person who sent her back to the General's Mansion was Shen Qinghou, then she could rest assured that what she feared most was that the person who sent her back to the mansion was neither Meng Yange nor Shen Qinghou.

Hearing this, Lin Sishen hurriedly asked: "Then do you remember when it was?"

Mo Zhu thought about it for a while, and said firmly: "It should be the time of Chou."

"Based on this, it's about the same time." Lin Sishen settled his mind and planned to go directly to Shen Qinghou for verification, then asked again: "The Princess is up now."

Mo Zhu nodded and said: "Get up, this servant just saw Lan Qing and Lu Yin come in to help the princess wash up."

"I'm going to find the princess."

Lin Sishen rinsed his mouth, then casually washed his face with water, walked out of the study and walked straight to the opposite room.

The room was half open, Lin Sishen hurriedly pushed the door open, stepped over the threshold and called out: "Princess."

Shen Qinghou was sitting in front of the dressing table, with three thousand blue hairs hanging behind her head, Lu Yin stood behind her to comb her hair, and Lan Qing stood aside holding a wooden box with a few hairpins.

After Lin Sishen entered the room impatiently, Shen Qinghou glanced at her indifferently through the reflection of the bronze mirror in front of her, and said nothing.

Lan Qing frowned and turned to look at her, and muttered dissatisfiedly: "The princess is dressing up, why is the princess so reckless, he didn't know how to knock on the door."

Lin Sishen stared at Shen Qinghou's back in a daze. Shen Qinghou, who always liked to be white, was actually wearing a light blue dress today, with intricate and delicate patterns embroidered with gold silk on the corners of the layered skirts. A beautiful gold hairpin was inserted between the newly tied bun, and the tassels hanging from the head of the hairpin swayed gently, which was noble and elegant.

Lin Sishen coughed lightly and backed out of the door, lowered his head and pleaded guilty: "Sishen is rude, please forgive me, princess."

Shen Qinghou turned his head to look at the wooden box in Lan Qing's hand, holding a white jade hairpin in his white jade hand, and opened his lips calmly and said, "It's okay, you can come in."

Lin Sishen entered in response to the sound, and walked a few steps behind Shen Qinghou, she didn't say anything but lowered her eyes and thought for a while, what kind of day is today that Shen Qinghou would dress up so delicately.

Shen Qinghou didn't open his mouth, and Lan Qing who was on the side promptly explained: "Today is Concubine Chen's birthday, and His Majesty hosted a banquet in the palace to celebrate her birthday, and all the guests were relatives of the emperor. But today, Junma Ye can go to the banquet with the princess."

With Lan Qing's explanation in this way, Lin Sishen remembered that Concubine Chen was a favorite concubine of the late emperor and had no heirs. However, Concubine Chen took care of him for several years when His Majesty was young, so the relationship between the two is still close.

Concubine Chen is happy, every year at the birthday banquet, His Majesty only invites some relatives of the royal family to the banquet, so it can be regarded as a royal family banquet.

In previous years, even General Lin hadn't attended the banquet, so Lin Sishen had never been there.But today is different from the past, Lin Sishen and Shen Qinghou are married, they are the son-in-law of the Ninth Prince, they can be regarded as relatives of the emperor, and they are eligible to attend the banquet with Shen Qinghou.

Lin Sishen sighed softly, "I forgot about it."

Lan Qing chuckled, reached out and pointed at the screen beside him, and signaled: "You don't have to worry about the princess, the princess has already prepared the gift, and even picked out a robe for the prince, and the prince put the clothes on first. Put it on, and when the time comes, the county horse will enter the palace with the princess."

Shen Qinghou had already prepared everything, and it was enough for Lin Sishen to follow her to the banquet.

Lin Sishen shook his head, and said helplessly, "The princess has prepared so thoughtfully, which makes Sishen feel ashamed."

As soon as the words fell, Shen Qinghou tied up her hair. She slowly got up and looked back at Lin Sishen. Lin Sishen happened to raise her eyes at this moment, and the two looked at each other. Lin Sishen was stunned, and her heart beat violently in her chest .

Today's Shen Qinghou's dressing and dressing is more graceful and luxurious than before. The light blue dress is long and drags the floor, the graceful waist is lightly tied with a cloud belt, the black silk is combed into a bun, the blue willow eyebrows are red lips and white teeth, Even though she has a cold and aloof demeanor, she can't hide that trace of natural charm.The perfect blend of coldness and charm, like a banished fairy who has just been caught in the fire.

She lightly moved her lotus steps and walked slowly towards Lin Sishen, the tassels hanging down from the golden steps in the bun swayed slightly, the so-called swaying posture and looking forward to shining, probably it was like this.

Lin Sishen looked at Shen Qinghou in front of her, and everything in her eyes was overshadowed for a moment, except for Shen Qinghou's stunning bright color, which was so beautiful that she couldn't tolerate other things in her eyes.

Just when Lin Sishen was amazed, Shen Qinghou suddenly raised the corners of his lips slightly, and with a half-smile, he stopped and looked at the stunned Lin Sishen not far or near.

Seeing Lin Sishen's stupefied look, Lan Qing and Lu Yin couldn't help covering their lips and laughing lightly. After looking at each other, they joked in unison: "I'm afraid the magistrate is dumbfounded."

Lin Sishen came back to his senses, looked at the playful smile on Shen Qinghou's face, coughed lightly with erratic eyes, and sighed: "The princess is really beautiful and fragrant."

Shen Qinghou raised her eyebrows, and a dark light flashed in her eyes, she opened her lips and said lightly: "Mr. Lin is absurd."

Lan Qing took a step forward with a smile, and said respectfully: "I'd better serve the magistrate to change clothes first."

Lin Sishen waved his hand and refused: "No need, I'll just put it on myself, don't bother Miss Lanqing."

Then he smiled lightly at Shen Qinghou and walked into the screen slowly. Sure enough, he saw a light blue robe on a sandalwood stand, which looked the same as the one on Shen Qinghou. The skirt was written by the same person, not only the material and workmanship are the same, even the moiré on the skirt is exactly the same.

Without thinking about it, Lin Sishen took off his coat.

Outside the screen, Lan Qing and Lu Yin exited the room under Shen Qinghou's signal, and closed the door carefully, leaving Lin Sishen and Shen Qinghou alone in the room.

Lin Sishen, who had just put on her fine clothes, noticed the slight footsteps behind her. She tightened her hands slightly, turned around to look at Shen Qinghou who was leaning against the screen, and asked with a chuckle, "Princess Princess?" This is?"

Shen Qinghou raised his eyebrows, and Shi Shiran asked, "Master Lin, do you need help?"

Lin Sishen gathered the skirts of his clothes, looking down at the complicated belts, shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be necessary."

Since young Lin Sishen has only been served by Mo Zhu, she never treats Mo Zhu like a human being, she does everything by herself, such small things will naturally not bother others, but after a while she said that her clothes are neatly dressed together.

After straightening the corners of his sleeves, Lin Sishen raised his eyes to look at Shen Qinghou who was still standing aside, pursed his lips and asked softly: "The person who brought me back to the mansion last night was the princess?"

Shen Qinghou had no doubt about him, nodded lightly and said, "That's right."

Lin Sishen asked politely, "Why did you appear there?"

Shen Qinghou explained concisely: "The person I wanted to meet last night happened to be nearby."

Lin Sishen didn't suspect that Shen Qinghou was following her. Even if she sent someone to follow Shen Qinghou, she didn't have to do it herself. She smiled and said helplessly, "Fortunately, the princess ran into me. If it wasn't for the princess, I would I'm afraid my soul has returned to the west."

Shen Qinghou shook her head slightly when she heard the words, she looked at Lin Sishen thoughtfully, and opened her lips and said, "That's not true, that foreign woman seems to be hesitating, even if I don't show up, she's probably willing to let you go .”

Thinking of the cold stabbing pain on her neck yesterday, Lin Sishen subconsciously raised her hand to touch her neck, and she sighed helplessly: "I never thought that she would really kill me."

Shen Qinghou looked at her with a smile that was not a smile: "I think she is merciful enough to you. If it were me, I'm afraid I would kill you directly. You are from the general's mansion, and the foreigner wants to deal with it." It's the prince. On the surface, as long as you die, the general's mansion will be in chaos. General Lin doesn't care about the prince, and the prince will lose a right-hand man."

Lin Sishen closed her eyes, Shen Qinghou's words seemed to remind her, she said softly: "Perhaps Meng Yange was ordered to kill me."

Shen Qinghou looked at Lin Sishen with complicated eyes: "I was ordered to kill you, but I pleaded for you and delivered a letter. Knowing that your subordinates killed the clansmen, I was merciful when I finally attacked. That's why I said, Miss Meng is already a subordinate to you." Forgive me."

Lin Sishen took a deep breath, looked at Shen Qinghou for a while, and then suddenly asked: "The person the county chief met last night was a foreigner?"

Shen Qinghou did not deny it, but nodded and admitted: "That's right, the person I met was the patriarch of the alien race, that is, the elder you mentioned."

Lin Sishen shook his head, sighed inwardly, and laughed at himself, "Not only was I one step behind the Princess, but I almost lost my life."

Seeing that Lin Sishen's eyes dimmed a bit, Shen Qinghou walked up to her slowly, took off the jade pendant she had placed on the wooden table beside her, brushed her plain jade hand over Lin Sishen's waist, and fastened the jade pendant around her waist for her , softly said: "It is indeed a good breakthrough to start with Miss Meng, but you are too impatient, you should wait patiently for a while, at least until the people you sent to southern Xinjiang come back first."

Lin Sishen's body froze, she looked down at the jade pendant hanging from her waist, and said with a complicated expression: "The princess really has a clever plan."

Shen Qinghou shook his head: "The miraculous calculation in your eyes is nothing but the result of my deployment for many years."

The woman in front of her is not only beautiful, but also her intelligence makes Lin Sishen truly convinced: "The princess is self-effacing, everything is subject to change, but the princess has guessed all the changes early on, isn't this considered a clever plan?"

The corners of Shen Qinghou's lips curled up, and a sly light flashed in her clear eyes. She opened her lips and asked with a half-smile, "Mr. Lin, are you glad that I chose you?"

"That's right, I'm really glad." Lin Sishen had a lazy chuckle on his face, concealing the deep fear in his eyes.

Although Lin Sishen hid her thoughts very deeply, Shen Qinghou was keenly aware of the vigilance and resistance that suddenly emanated from her body. She lowered her eyes and smiled faintly, and suddenly asked: "Three years ago, when you first Once I went to Gyeongju for the second prince, you know I was also in Gyeongju at that time."

Lin Sishen's expression changed, and she said in surprise, "Qingzhou Governor's Mansion?"

Three years ago, Governor Zhang of Gyeongju conspired to rebel. General Lin was ordered to go to Qingzhou to arrest Governor Zhang, and Lin Sishen accompanied him.

There is a secret letter with the second prince hidden in Zhang Duwei's mansion. Before leaving, the second prince ordered Lin Sishen to destroy the secret letter before General Lin confiscated it. Lin Sishen had no choice but to obey.

Lin Sishen remembered that day very clearly, the monstrous flames of the Captain's Mansion, the corpses all over the ground, and those horrifying screams, almost instantly brought Lin Sishen back to that night that she will never forget.

+ + + + + +

The 14-year-old Lin Sishen is much more immature than now, thin and pale, with a slender body wrapped in a loose robe, and a gentle smile on his face, like an innocent and kind boy.

On the day when the Captain's Mansion was inspected, Lin Sishen stood beside General Lin in ill-fitting armor, with determination mixed with a trace of anxiety in his eyes, and the sword in his hand seemed to never stop shaking.

When Duwei Zhang, who was still asleep, noticed something strange, General Lin had already led his troops to surround the Duwei's mansion, and the private guards raised in the mansion fought with the Habayashi guards brought by General Lin.

Taking advantage of the chaos, Lin Sishen found Zhang Duwei's study room by himself. The dark room was lit by a torch outside, and the light of the fire shone on Lin Sishen's pale face.

After only a few glances in the study, Lin Sishen found Zhang Duwei's secret letter hidden behind a painting. She set it on fire and burned it, and then sprinkled the kerosene she had with her in the study.

She set up the scene with a lighted candle and a piece of cotton thread, and then quietly left the study room. She walked down the flickering corridor, even the lanterns hanging in the corridor were extremely red in her eyes.

At the end of the wooden corridor, Lin Sishen ran into a white-clothed masked woman head-on. She looked about the same size as her, and seemed to be about the same age as her. Perhaps she was the lady from the Governor's Mansion.

Lin Sishen stood still, facing the woman's eyes, the sound of clashing weapons resounded through the sky.

Father said that Duwei Zhang's rebellion is a serious crime to punish the nine clans, and everyone in the Duwei's mansion will die tonight, including the woman in front of her who is about the same age as her.

Lin Sishen didn't kill the woman. On the contrary, she killed the guard who stabbed behind the woman with a sword. The cold long sword cut the man's throat, and the blood that flowed out splashed on the white gauze on the woman's face. and Lin Sishen's armor.

The woman looked at her fixedly, her eyes were cold and clear, the blood from the corner of her forehead slowly slipped across the eyebrows, hanging in fine pieces on the long and dense eyelashes, and did not fall for a long time.

The woman only glanced at her, and walked straight to the study without stopping.Lin Sishen grabbed her wrist, and only whispered in her ear: "Don't go."

After saying that, he let go of her hand and passed by her, and walked forward quickly, the woman behind her stopped and turned her back to Lin Sishen.

In the next few breaths, a monstrous flame suddenly ignited in the direction of the study, and the fire spread to the entire Governor's Mansion at a rapid speed.

The fire was set by Lin Sishen, and when the fire ignited, Lin Sishen turned around and took a look. The woman in white clothes not far away was motionless, and when she was finally engulfed by the fire, she disappeared in a flash.

Lin Sishen stared blankly at the raging fire that illuminated half of the sky, only felt that the white-clothed woman he had just met was either a ghost or his own illusion, and her eyes fell on the corpse on the ground in a daze.

The guard's eyes were wide open, his eyes were cloudy and blue like a dead fish, his mouth was still open, his scarlet tongue was curled up, and Lin Sishen felt a nausea welling up in his throat.

This was Lin Sishen's first time killing someone, she took off the blood-stained armor in disgust, and ran away.

When she ran to the backyard, she accidentally stepped on a corpse and fell to the ground. When she looked up, she saw Duwei Zhang kneeling in front of her eyes, and standing in front of Duwei Zhang was a man wearing a black mask , the long sword in his hand was resting on Zhang Duwei's neck.

Lin Sishen arrived in the blink of an eye, and the man in black chopped off Duwei Zhang's head. The hideous head rolled on the ground a few times, and rolled in front of Lin Sishen, scarlet blood splashed on her face.

The flames cast light on Lin Sishen's face, which was pale and frail, with some disheveled blue hair and clean white clothes, making her look like a young master running away in a panic.

Lin Sishen glanced at the terrifying head in front of him, calmly got up and looked at the man in black, and asked slowly, "You are an assassin, right?"

The man in black didn't answer, but just watched her raise the sword coldly. Lin Sishen looked back at the man in black without blinking. She saw that the sword in the man's hand seemed to be made of a very special material. Forged, the long and thin sword body is cold and white with a cold light.

The hilt of the sword is black, with no extra decorations, simple and beautiful, the head has just been beheaded, but there is no blood on the blade.Lin Sishen raised his eyes to look at the man in black, vaguely feeling that the person who wrapped him tightly was a woman.

She asked softly: "Your sword is very special, are you from Anyin Hall?"

The man in black squinted at her and did not deny it, the sword in his hand trembled slightly, Lin Sishen wiped off the blood on his face: "The assassins in the Dark Hall only kill the names on the jade tablets, I am right."

The man in black looked at her motionlessly, and still didn't speak, but the sword in his hand was still pointed at Lin Sishen's chest, as if he would stab it in the next second.

Lin Sishen spread her hands, with a smile on her face, she said calmly: "My name is not on it, so you don't have to kill me. Besides, I know which school has the least number of Habayashi guards."

The man in black said two words coldly: "Say."

Sure enough, it was a slightly tender and melodious female voice, Lin Sishen raised his finger to the side door without hesitation: "There are only ten Habayashi guards at the side door, and there is a covered dog hole under the fourth tree on the left, and no one is guarding it. "

The man in black looked at her for a long while, withdrew his sword, and sprinted towards the side door, leaving Lin Sishen, whose face was covered in blood, standing among a pile of corpses.

After the man in black left, Lin Sishen took a deep breath, her hands hanging in her sleeves trembled uncontrollably, in fact, she wasn't sure if the assassin would kill her, all her composure and composure were just pretending .

When General Lin found Lin Sishen, she was sitting blankly by the dry well in the backyard, the sword in her hand was stained with blood, and there were three corpses still warm at her feet.

Seeing that she was safe and sound, General Lin breathed a sigh of relief, but the next second he walked up to her and asked sharply, "How can the soldiers who went into battle take off their armor?"

Lin Sishen raised her eyes blankly and looked at General Lin. The blood on her face had dried up, like a mask that had just been formed on her face.

The next second, General Lin pulled her up, patted her heavily on the shoulder, and praised with satisfaction: "Good job."

After finishing speaking, General Lin sighed with a somewhat complicated expression: "The study room was burned to the ground, and the things the prince was looking for were no longer found. Captain Zhang is really ruthless. In order to destroy those things, He actually set fire to the Governor's Mansion himself, and even burned his newborn daughter and three-year-old son to death."

Lin Sishen lowered his eyes slowly upon hearing the words, and stared blankly at the blood-stained sword in his hand.

The sloppy General Lin naturally didn't notice Lin Sishen's strange expression, he put his arms around Lin Sishen's shoulders, laughed and said, "Shen'er, you are so brave today, I am really gratified for my father."

In a daze, Lin Sishen's eyes darkened and he collapsed into General Lin's arms, the strong feeling of nausea in his heart hit his throat again.

The fog in front of him gradually dissipated, Lin Sishen looked up at Shen Qinghou in front of him, and slowly said: "I set the fire in the Governor's Mansion. The masked woman I saw outside the study, It's you."

Looking at Lin Sishen's pale face, Shen Qinghou nodded: "Well, I was in the Governor's Mansion that day, and I wanted to get something."

Panting, Lin Sishen took two steps back, she chuckled lightly and said, "I never thought it would be such a coincidence, that day I not only met Li Luo, but even you."

Shen Qinghou noticed Lin Sishen's strangeness, her pale face was stiff, and fine cold sweat even oozes from her forehead.

Shen Qinghou stepped forward and grabbed her arm, and asked in a deep voice, "What's wrong with you?"

Lin Sishen's eyes darkened, Shen Qinghou's sudden mention of the Governor's Mansion reminded her of something she tried to forget, she tremblingly grabbed Shen Qinghou's hand.For the first time, a look of panic and helplessness appeared on her face, as if she was in a nightmare, she murmured: "That day, I burned a newborn baby girl and a three-year-old child to death."

Three years ago, the disgusting feeling in his throat struck again, just like in countless nightmares, Lin Sishen covered his mouth with a pale face.
