Traitor and Concubine Quan

Ruan Xixi squeezed into a donkey cart belonging to a villager who happened to be going to Qidong Prefecture.

On the road, Ruan Xixi and Lin Pin sat side by side behind the cart full of various grains, bumping around.Lin Pin leaned inside, his face turned blue and white, and he covered his right shoulder with his left hand.

Seeing this, Ruan Xixi turned around and pulled on the railing, begging the villagers who were driving to drive more slowly.Seeing Ruan Xixi, a beautiful and good-tempered girl begging, the villager also complied, and slowed down as expected.But this simple donkey cart was no better than the gorgeous upholstered chariot that Lin Xiao was used to riding in. Although it had slowed down, it still felt uncomfortable.

Ruan Xixi gathered some hay and spread it for Lin Pin. After thinking about it, she stretched out her hand in a good-tempered manner to wrap around Lin Pin's neck.Lin Pin glanced at the hand on his shoulder, then turned to look at Ruan Xixi.

Ruan Xixi cleared her throat and said, "Seeing that you have been injured so badly, I will lend you a hand to lean on."

Lin Pin smiled, and leaned his head on Ruan Xixi's arm.Ruan Xixi's vaguely scented scent filled his nostrils, and Lin Pin seemed to have returned to the scene when he was a child, leaning on his mother's arms in the midsummer courtyard.

"Lin Fox, what happened to the Yuheng faction that you told the seniors and sisters just now?" Ruan Xixi asked.

"You have such a high understanding of martial arts, but you can't understand these things? I've made it very clear. If you can't figure it out, it's no fault of me." Lin Pin closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Seeing her arrogance, Ruan Xixi thought that she didn't have to pretend to be a good person, so she simply pulled out her arm to let the fox suffer a bit, and then saw her peaceful and peaceful sleeping appearance, and couldn't bear to let her suffer, so she used Resting his chin on his hand, he said, "I have also heard about the fact that Que Wujiao, the head of the Yuheng sect, married Tan Caifan, one of the 'Two Shus'. It was a major event in the martial arts at that time. Tan Caifan is old, but Que Wujiao is a hero, and there is nothing wrong with being a hero with a beauty..."

Lin Pin didn't respond to her.

Ruan Xixi babbled to herself, "You later said that although Tan Caifan came from a scholarly family, she was a flirtatious woman. At that time, Shu Wuya was still under the Yuheng sect, and he was a direct disciple of Que Wujiao. He was still young. At most in his early twenties, and handsome, could it be..."

Ruan Xixi had an epiphany, and looked at Lin Pin with bright eyes.

"Could it be that Shu Wuya and his mistress Tan Caifan met each other's eyes, making Que Wujiao wear a cuckold?!"

Lin Pin opened his eyes and looked at the excited Ruan Xixi indifferently, "Are you stupid enough?"

Ruan Xixi ignored her sarcasm, and rolled her eyes, "And this junior sister Gantang is the evil seed born of Shu Wuya and Tan Caifan?!"

Lin Pin didn't want to talk to her.

Ruan Xixi stuck out her tongue, and glanced at Lin Pin out of the corner of her eye, "How do you know so many secrets in the world?" She suddenly moved closer to Lin Pin's face, staring at it carefully, "You can even recite at least two sects. Martial arts mentality... do you have another secret?"

Lin Pin stretched out his hand and pushed Ruan Xixi's face away, and said sarcastically, "I don't have any weird secrets, but Miss Ruan surprised me. When I met you by the Yangshui, I just thought you were a pretty country girl." , but the closer you get to you, the more you feel that you are unfathomable. You have excellent lightness skills, but you don't have vicious killing moves; you have a high understanding of martial arts, but you never take the initiative to learn anything; you say you are just ordinary Common people, but they won't let go of Fengyuan Order..."

Ruan Xixi's face was covered by her, unable to struggle, she saw Lin Pin's questioning gaze through the cracks in Lin Pin's fingers.

Lin Pin said, "And your Uncle Gu, he is definitely not an ordinary person..."

Ruan Xixi pulled Lin Pin's hand away, and said with a breath, "So Lin Fox, let me make a deal with you."

"Let me let you go?" Lin Pin raised his eyebrows.

"Well," Ruan Xixi nodded, "and Uncle Gu."

Lin Pin was silent for a moment, staring at Ruan Xixi's face with deep eyes.

"I don't do this deal."

"Why?" Ruan Xixi was surprised.Now that he knew that his identity was unusual, Lin Pin shouldn't easily send himself into the palace.A person with unknown background like myself, isn't he afraid that something will happen and hurt her?

Lin Pin didn't say any more reasons, but continued to close his eyes and said calmly, "Don't ask why, because I just don't want to let you go."

Ruan Xixi choked.

The donkey cart vibrated, and the persimmons in the basket rolled to Ruan Xixi's feet.Ruan Xixi picked up a small red persimmon, remembered the nickname Lin Pin had given herself, pinched the skin of the persimmon with her slender fingers, and thought dejectedly: Could it be that in Lin Pin's eyes, she is such a soft persimmon?

Lin Pin slightly opened his eyes and saw Ruan Xixi pinching the persimmon, and couldn't help but smile.

Red persimmons are really interesting to soft persimmons.

Entering the city gate in the evening, the walls of the majestic city gate are mottled with moss, and occasionally green vines and green radishes adorn the top and bottom.The military flag was fluttering, and the soldiers guarding the city were tall and mighty, dignified and upright.

Lin Pin was interrogated when he entered the city, but seeing her calmly waiting, he took out a letter from her bosom and handed it to the guards.Seeing the signature of the letter, the man immediately changed his face, and asked someone to lead Lin Pin and Ruan Xixi to the post station, while he took the letter and hurried to the direction of the prefect's mansion.

In the post station, Ruan Xixi was bored and said, "I want to go shopping in the street. I just saw that Qidong Mansion is very lively. There is no place to play these days..."

Lin Xiao said, "No."

Ruan Xixi slapped the table and said loudly, "You see, since I have served you so much along the way and saved your life time and time again, I can't even let me take a stroll?! Besides, Uncle Gu is still in your hands. I will never escape!"

Seeing that Lin Pin's expression was loose, Ruan Xixi probed further, "Fox Lin, you see I've lived and slept with you along the way, I'll add some rouge and gouache to myself, and then go buy some delicious and fun things for entertainment, otherwise I'll I'm almost suffocated..."

Lin Pin said, "Wait a minute, we have met the prefect of Qidong, and I will go with you."

There was something strange in Ruan Xixi's eyes, but Lin Pin didn't notice it, and said happily, "Okay, since you are willing to accompany me, it would be great. With you, a treacherous minister, by my side, I can show off my might! Seriously , can I buy something without paying for it?"

Lin Pin rolled his eyes, "No."

Ruan Xixi said bitterly, "I have no money."

Lin Pin casually took out a money bag, and looked at it heavily, "I have money."

Ruan Xixi's eyes widened, "When did you have such a bag of money? Why didn't you tell me along the way?"

"The general who guarded the city at the gate of the city just now is filial, but... I can't remember his name." Lin Pin frowned, "But it doesn't matter, we will meet the prefect later, and just let him guard us. .These people are nothing more than some benefits. Since I have collected his money, I will find a way to promote him."

Ruan Xixi shook her head and sighed, "You really deserve the title of treacherous minister."

Lin Pin stared at her and said with a sneer, "What's wrong with being a traitorous official? You can enjoy power and wealth as well. It's not like those so-called loyal and upright ministers who work hard all their lives, and may end up with a ruined family in the end..."

Ruan Xixi shook her head, wanting to refute something, but seeing that Lin Pin's cold expression was different from before, she stopped speaking and forcibly swallowed what she wanted to say.

"Wait down the street, I'll buy some medicine for you. Your wound has been torn several times. If you don't have medicine, it's really not easy to heal. And your identity... I know you won't let the doctor come to see you easily ..."

Hearing what she said, Lin Pin was a little stunned.

Ruan Xixi didn't hear her answer, she looked up at her, but met her eyes unexpectedly.Feeling flustered, he hurriedly turned his eyes away and said, "Why are you looking at me like this, you feel very...strange..."

Lin Xiao said, "Don't think that just because you please me, you can soften my heart."

Ruan Xixi was angry, "Why do you always treat your conscience like a dog's lungs?!"

"Because I've seen too many dog's lungs, and almost no one has what you call a conscience..." After Lin Shuang finished speaking, he heard a knock on the door, and motioned for Ruan Xixi to open the door.

Ruan Xixi reluctantly opened it, and saw a middle-aged man in a dark red official robe standing in front of the door, with a goatee on his chin, fair face, an official hat, and black boots.He is not tall, but his eyes are as sharp as an eagle.

"Zhu Yan, the prefect of Xiaguanqi East Mansion, see Mr. Lin, the envoy of the Twelve Houses of the Ten Houses!"

Ruan Xixi was kicked out by Lin Pin, and when the door was closed, she heard Master Zhu saying to Lin Pin, "As for the twelve guards..."

Ruan Xixi walked in the station with her hands behind her back. She had heard that Qidong Mansion was rich, but now that she saw it with her own eyes, it was indeed true.Even this inn was built magnificently, with exquisite layout and no sloppy decoration everywhere.

"Have you heard that Mr. Lin has come to our Qidong Mansion, and is now staying at the inn." At the corner, the voices of several women talking could be faintly heard.

Ruan Xixi looked up, fortunately, there were beams to hide above.So Yun Zu Nei Li flew on the beam to hide.Not long after, several women dressed as official servants walked by below.

"Master Lin? Is it the notorious Lin Pin?"

"Isn't that right? I just came here today, and the prefect is accompanying me."

"Master Taishou chose 25 women to give to Lord Lin last year. It is said that they were all executed by the emperor! I don't know how many more to choose this year. I just hope we don't fall for that traitor, otherwise we will be sent to the palace , serving a mad emperor..."

Ruan Xixi looked down at these officials and maids, but seeing that they were ordinary-looking, she couldn't help shaking her head, and said to herself: With your looks, there is really no need to worry about being spotted by Fox Lin, right?

"Our Lord Taishou is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Isn't Miss Taishou a famous beauty in our Qidong Mansion, but I didn't let that treacherous minister find out..."

Another servant girl smiled triumphantly, "And the prefect also recruited a beautiful Seventh Lady, who was one of the beauties who didn't make the list and handed in last year. Everyone said that Master Lin was cunning and deceitful, and asked me to say Ah, our Lord Prefect is more cunning than Lord Lin!"

"Yes, that's..."
