Tragic death and rebirth, married to the abstinent uncle and was spoiled crazy

Lin Mingqian sneered at himself and said, "Ask yourself, have you really never treated us harshly? Do you know how many beatings we have received because of Lin Yuntao since we were young?"

Old Madam Lin narrowed her eyes. "If you two hadn't failed to protect Yun Tao, why would I have attacked you? Yun Tao has been weak since he was a child, you know that!"

Lin Tingwan watched the two people arguing quietly. She was not familiar with this third uncle who died early, but she had often heard about him from Old Lady Lin in her past and present lives. She couldn't help but feel curious about this third uncle.

"But have you ever thought about Jianguo and me? If Lin Yuntao wants to go out and cause trouble, he will definitely compete with those officials' children. What can Jianguo and I do? Will we risk our lives for his face?"

Old Madam Lin's face flushed with anger. "Yun Tao is too kind. He can't stand seeing others being bullied. So what if you help him?"

Lin Mingqian was so angry that he laughed, "Do you know that Lin Yuntao, who you think is so successful, is actually an expert in eating, drinking, gambling, cheating and deceiving people?"

Old Mrs. Lin looked at Lin Mingqian helplessly, "Don't think you can talk nonsense now that Yuntao is dead." After saying that, she looked at Lin Jianguo for help.

The latter was silent for a while and then slowly said, "Mom, big brother didn't lie to you, this is the reality." After a pause, he slowly said, "It seems that all the animals that disappeared around our home were caused by him."

At that time, the Lin family was of average condition and lived in a village near the capital city of Shangjing. Their dogs and cats would always disappear after a period of time, and then, after a period of time, their bodies would appear in their owners' homes in various deformed states.

Without exception, after a long time no one in the village kept these things anymore, as they were annoying to look at.

At the beginning, Lin Mingqian and Lin Jianguo didn't know who did it until they ran into Lin Yuntao with blood on his face outside one day, then they knew what was going on.

The two men quickly avoided Lin Yuntao, and his ferocious expression in the moonlight was also seen by the two men.

Finally, the two of them discussed it and decided not to mention the matter again for fear of upsetting Old Madam Lin. If it weren't for today, they would have kept the matter to themselves.

Old Mrs. Lin looked distraught. "Impossible, how could this be? Yun Tao was so well-behaved and kind. He didn't even dare to stand by and watch when I was killing the chicken..."

……

Late at night in Prince Gong’s Mansion, the moon was dark, the wind was strong, and the stars were dim.

The man in black slid down the wall like a ghost, his movements swift and silent.

He was dressed in black, with a black mask on his face, like a shadow in the night, and a long sword hung at his waist. The guards in the mansion had noticed him, but after a pause they turned a blind eye.

The man in black moved swiftly and entered Prince Gong's room in the blink of an eye.

The quilt on the bed was folded neatly. In the darkness, Pei Jinan stood beside the bed.

As night falls, a bright moon hangs high in the sky. The moonlight shines through the dense tree branches, casting mottled shadows like stars falling on the ground, twinkling with a faint glow.

Pei Jin watched all this quietly, and after a long while he slowly asked, "Are you here?"

"Meet the Eleventh Prince."

Pei Jinan smiled calmly, "I am no longer the eleventh prince. My brother has made me the Prince of Gong."

The man in black was silent for a long time before he slowly spoke, "It shouldn't be like this. You are the one who should sit on the throne."

"Forget it, now that things have come to this, whoever wants to sit can sit down." Pei Jinan raised his eyebrows, as if he didn't care about anything, "What's going on?"

"The health of His Majesty Beixiang is getting worse day by day. The imperial physician has diagnosed that he may not live for more than half a month. Now the Beixiang royal family has begun to deploy troops for that chair. Now is the best time to strike them." The man in black said respectfully.

Pei Jinan shook his head helplessly, "My brother will naturally not let me go. He may know the news, but he has not said anything until now, so it must be because he does not want to involve me."

"How could your majesty do this?" the man in black was shocked. "No matter what, this is all for Yongjin. Why don't you do what is most beneficial to Yongjin, but instead engage in internal strife?"

"Who can tell the emperor's mind clearly?" Pei Jinan smiled helplessly.

"But, no matter what, you shouldn't use this as a bargaining chip, Your Highness."

"Forget it. If His Majesty insists on doing so, Your Highness might as well rebel. We, the soldiers, will lend you a helping hand from behind." The man in black said confidently.

Pei Jinan nodded. He knew that every word the man in front of him said was from the heart, but he didn't want it to be like that.

After all, Your Majesty is his elder brother. If you do this, it would be against the rules.

The man in black shook his head helplessly. Prince Gong was good in every way except that he was too kind. Compared with the current emperor, he lacked the ruthlessness.

If it were that person, he might have rebelled by now.

Pei Jinan waved his hand and said, "Go back quickly. I already know the news. You can just send the letter next time. You don't have to make this trip again."

"But last time..."

Pei Jinan's cold voice sounded, "It's okay. It's just news that is beneficial to Yongjin. It doesn't matter even if my brother knows about it."

"Your Highness, please be careful in the capital. I am worried that His Majesty will do something bad to you. If so, you must not be lenient."

"I know. Don't worry. Go back and tell them to be careful."

The man in black gritted his teeth, but in the end said nothing. He jumped out and disappeared.

Pei Jinan stood by the window in a daze. To him, the throne was the last thing the late emperor left him.

But if he fights for this position, countless people in the world will suffer, so he doesn't want to fight for it.

After all, his elder brother, the emperor, has ascended to that position. Although he is unwilling in his heart, he will be relieved if the people are safe.

If the emperor can rest assured about this, then it wouldn't matter if he just becomes a leisurely prince.

The leaves swayed gently in the breeze, making a rustling sound, like a dance in the night.

The moonlight and the shadow of the man in black intertwined to create a moving picture, sometimes quiet, sometimes active. Finally, the man in black climbed over the wall and left only his footsteps echoing in the night wind.

The tree roots penetrate deep into the soil, as if they could touch the heartbeat of the earth and breathe together with this quiet night.

Above the treetops, the stars cast by the moonlight make people involuntarily want to look up at the starry sky, looking for the stars forgotten by the moonlight.

And on this quiet night, the tree becomes a guardian, quietly guarding this land and bringing people peace and comfort.
