Chapter 259 She, Trust Issues
The heavy rain lasted all night.
The next morning, when Abao woke up.
The lush forests are particularly green after being washed by the rain.
The rain gradually subsided, dripping like a bead curtain hanging by the window.
When Xie Wuai brought in the temple's breakfast, A Bao was lying on the edge of the bed, staring blankly at the drizzling rain outside the window, lost in thought.
Ever since Xiao Yunzheng revealed the conversation between Lin Rongjin and the black-clad killer, she had been thinking hard all night, but she still couldn't figure out which concubine in her Eastern Palace had instigated Lin Rongjin to kill.
"Have you found Lin Rongjin's body?"
"Found it. The death was tragic." Xie Wuai drank a sip of hot soy milk before continuing, "The bottom of the cliff was already filled with green miasma. Last night's rainstorm mixed with the miasma and formed a green lake at the bottom of the cliff, like boiling water."
"When Jia Si found Lin Rongjin, he was soaked in the boiling green lake and was cooked."
As he spoke, Xie Wuai handed Abao a big meat bun.
"Eat?"
"..."
When A Bao heard about Lin Rongjin's miserable condition, he couldn't eat anymore.
She seemed to be thinking about something, and then asked, "Did the scouts we sent to the Lin Mansion last night report back?"
Xie Wuai shook his head, "How can it be that fast!"
Upon hearing this, Abao nodded silently.
Governor-General Lin’s office was located in Chenzhou, and the round trip alone took three days.
It really shouldn't be so fast. She was just too anxious.
In silence, Xie Wuai looked at his sister meaningfully. According to his understanding of his sister, his sister would not like someone like Lin Rongjin who had ambition but no intelligence or means, and was petty and vengeful.
But he was very confused, so he just asked directly as usual: "My sister seems to be very concerned about Lin Rongjin's death. Is Lin Rongjin very important to me?"
"Lin Rongjin's father, Governor Lin."
"Governor Lin governs three states and is in charge of military affairs and food supplies. Even the old King Lu in Chenzhou cannot compete with him. Moreover, the most important thing is that the grain transport is in his hands."
Ah Bao lay on the bed, listening to the sound of rain outside the window, and explained carefully: "Governor Lin loved his youngest son Lin Rongjin the most. Now that Lin Rongjin is dead, the real murderer who was hiding in the dark and instigated Lin Rongjin to kill Xiao Yunzheng is likely to slander him to Governor Lin and encourage him to avenge Lin Rongjin."
At this point, Po sighed deeply, "Things will only get more difficult then."
Xie Wuai understood.
He knew what Xiao Yunzheng told Abao when he returned to the dormitory last night.
But what if the thief cries "Catch the thief"? He was half-believing and half-doubting what Xiao Yunzheng said.
So, Xie Wuai curiously asked, "Since Governor Lin is involved. Then, sister, do you believe what Xiao Yunzheng said? Did Lin Rongjin want to kill him first, and then he fought back in self-defense?"
With tacit understanding, A Bao and Xie Wuai looked at each other.
The scene on the cliff last night - murder and being murdered - had one biggest mystery that was hard for her to resolve.
If Lin Rongjin had set up the killing plan first, it would have been reasonable for Xiao Yunzheng to leave at least one black-clad killer as a witness to corroborate everything he said.
However, Xiao Yunzheng killed all the black-clad assassins arranged by Lin Rongjin.
If someone takes advantage of the situation and accuses Xiao Yunzheng of being the instigator, they can use this to accuse Xiao Yunzheng of killing the black-clad killer to silence him.
A Bao said faintly: "I understand your worries."
No matter what she does, Governor Lin will inevitably feel that Xiao Yunzheng is in favor now, so she will believe Xiao Yunzheng no matter what.
So she would definitely favor Xiao Yunzheng and ignore Lin Rongjin's death.
She remembered the look Xiao Yunzheng gave her when he was locked up in the temple's woodshed.
It seems to be asking, do you believe me?
