In Xinglin City, whoever first spread the word that the princess of the Northwest is an unscrupulous man, in order to cling to wealth and honor, she even drugged her sister to stun her, and got into the bridal sedan chair by herself.

What a good guy, he doesn't think about how to make contributions, but actually thinks about being a rabbit master for others, it's really ridiculous.

When Wei Ruojin heard it, her mind went blank for a moment, and she had no other thoughts, but she never thought that one day, he would become the protagonist of the rumors.

Steward Shang was full of apprehension, secretly glanced at Wei Ruo, then lowered his head, the young master must be very angry.

"If it's quiet, I really don't want to talk to her. Why can't I be quieter? Arrest her and don't disturb other people. As for the ones she followed, send them to the mine."

Rumors are limited to wise men, but most people don't care whether he is true or not, they just want to join in the fun and make a joke.It is also very simple to dispel this rumor.

The dungeon of the Northwest Palace soon ushered in the second Wei family member. Wei Qian opened her eyes and was still a little unconscious. When she saw Wei Ruojin sitting not far away, she collapsed.

"Wei Ruojin, you..." Wei Qian moved, only to realize that she was tied up, "Who gave you the courage to tie me up!"

There was a crisp sound, which echoed in the empty dungeon, and it seemed a little long. Wei Qian's face was slapped away.

"She's a girl, so be gentle with me." Wei Ruojin said lightly. He really didn't feel anything about Wei Qian being beaten. If he said he hated it, he hated it himself; There is no way to talk about it.

"Young master, you must pay attention next time, as long as this girl doesn't talk nonsense."

Wei Qian's face was still numb, ever since she stuffed Wei Ruojin into the sedan chair, she was slapped by Wei Lun, and now she was actually slapped by a slave!

"Wei Ruojin, how dare you hit me!" Wei Qianjueti's mouth seemed to be bleeding, with a fishy-sweet taste, but unfortunately her face was still numb, and she couldn't feel it with her tongue.

Wei Ruojin didn't pay attention to Wei Qian's vicious eyes, and asked, "What did Wei Lun ask you to do?"

"Wei Ruojin!" Wei Qian roared. When Wei Ruojin saw her in Wei's mansion, it was like a mouse seeing a cat. After she pushed people into the lake in winter, Wei Ruojin didn't leave the yard easily.

However, his reputation is well known!

Wei Qian looked at Wei Ruojin's calm and calm appearance, and the anger in her heart was suddenly suppressed. With half of her red and swollen face on her face, Wei Qian smiled and said, "Wei Ruojin, do you think you can get rid of the Wei family by entering the Northwest Palace? Dreaming , Let me tell you the truth, my father told me to enter the Northwest Palace this time."

Wei Ruojin stared at her silently.

Wei Qian suddenly felt that her pretentious arrogance was a bit ridiculous, but in front of Wei Ruojin, she also had to maintain an arrogance.

She breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "Originally, I was supposed to be the princess of the Northwest Palace, so I came here this time to save you from the fire and water. From now on, you will be free, and I will ask you Father will give you a half-time job, and you will continue to be your Shuangyu son."

Wei Ruojin smiled genuinely, "How do I hear what you mean, do you want to be the princess of the Northwest?"

"Of course, I was originally supposed to be the princess of the Northwest. Although I don't like the King of the Northwest, my father wants me to come in. I can't be anonymous. Therefore, the position of princess must be mine. This is very cost-effective Isn't it a deal?"

The generals at the side looked very ugly. If Wei Ruojin hadn't told her before, they would have beaten up this arrogant and self-righteous woman long ago.

Wei Ruojin walked up to Wei Qian and stared at her with her head tilted. To be honest, Wei Qian's appearance was indeed not bad, and with a family background like the Wei family, it was indeed a good help in the eyes of ordinary people.

"So, those who are sensible, let me go quickly, and wait for me to restore my status as a princess..."

"You don't look very good either." Wei Ruojin said suddenly, causing Wei Qian's remaining words to get stuck in her throat, and she looked at Wei Ruojin in disbelief.

"you……"

"Let me ask again, what exactly is Wei Lun asking you to do? Wei Qian, have you forgotten why you asked Yun Xiang to follow the sedan chair to the palace?" Wei Ruojin smiled at her, "I know that whether it is the Northwest Palace or me, They won't let her go."

Why?Of course it's because that dead girl stole her things, and even hit her attention on something she likes...

"It's you!"

"Wei Yuan was imprisoned here before, and it's okay to imprison you again. I'll give you some time to think about how to answer." Wei Ruojin led the people away, and the dungeon door was also closed. There were a few torches left, so the dungeon looked eerily dark.

Wei Qian moved her body, but it was a pity that she was tied up. She tried several postures to make herself feel a little more comfortable; however, as soon as she closed her eyes, she felt that someone was always staring at her in the dark, which made her unable to bear it. Stay and stare into the dark.

She is locked up now, and I hope the people she brings are smarter. When they spread the rumors, they speculated on several outcomes.

It's okay, Wei Qian kept comforting herself in her heart, she will definitely wait for someone to save her; then, she will definitely sue Wei Ruojin in front of the Northwest King.

Wei Qian was looking forward to someone coming to rescue her, thinking about how she would teach Wei Ruojin and the slaves who beat her after she got out; Wei Ruojin seemed to have forgotten about such a person.

After the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, the weather has improved, and some seeds that should be prepared have to be prepared; not many people died of freezing this winter, and it is also because of the briquettes that the workers in the mine can share some, and sell some of them. Diligent going up the mountain to chop some firewood can survive this winter.

I didn't think about keeping warm last year, and I can't forget it this year, but Wei Ruojin doesn't plan to grow sweet potatoes and corn; there are many places in the northwest where he can grow, so he exchanged all his points for cotton seeds.

After the Shangyuan, cotton seeds can also start breeding.

Wei Ruojin once met Shangyuan in Kyoto, and the whole city was full of lanterns that day, which was very lively; he didn't know how to make lanterns, so he asked craftsmen to tie up a few lanterns, burned charcoal and spent a few simple paintings, and waited. When it was Shangyuan, it was played with Lin Heng.

Fortunately, Lin Heng didn't make Wei Ruojin wait too long this time, he came back the day before the Shangyuan Festival.

"Didn't go to pay grandpa New Year's greetings during Chinese New Year, so it's time to go this time for Lantern Festival. Is the barracks still closed?" Wei Ruojin wanted to make Lantern Festival, but it was a pity that there was no glutinous rice.

"Well, but, I wrote in advance, and I don't know if Grandpa will come tomorrow." Lin Heng returned to the palace and lay down on the couch beside him, letting Wei Ruojin choose the clothes he would wear tomorrow.

"This set of dark blue satin is good, suitable for going out, and the black set is also good, but it's too dark at night, which one do you think is better?" Wei Ruojin held up the clothes, and when she looked up, she saw Lin Heng staring at him , kept nodding.

"I asked you to choose the clothes for going out tomorrow. Why are you nodding at me?" Wei Ruojin was annoyed for a while, and threw the clothes over Lin Heng's head, and he laughed again.

"I will wear whatever clothes you choose, really." Lin Heng tore off the clothes covering his head.

"I don't care if you're true or not, it's best for us to go separately." Wei Ruojin took the clothes from his arms and stuffed them into the closet.

"By the way, I locked Wei Qian up in the dungeon." Wei Ruojin suddenly remembered that there was such a person.

"You don't want to say that people are sending money. We didn't see Wei Yuan sending money last time." Lin Heng laughed.

"Who knew that the Wei family would give up so quickly, but Wei Qian said that she wants to be your princess. Allow me to be an official and let me get out of the palace." Wei Ruojin squinted at him .

Lin Heng quickly sat up straight, "It's none of my business, and I haven't seen her before, so let me handle it with you?"

"Of course, let me handle it. Do you still want to intervene?"

"The dark blue satin jacket I saw you holding just now is very nice, that's it." Lin Heng got off the bed and found the dress from the closet and put it at hand.

The next day, Di Rong came to the palace at noon, had a meal and then left. When he heard that Wei Ruojin wanted to go to the street to look at the lights, he glanced at Lin Heng and said nothing.

Wei Ruojin waited happily until it got dark, and specially told him not to have too much dinner, and he had to go to the street to eat.As soon as it got dark, I went to the streets of Xinglin City with Lin Heng.

Except that there were more stalls, no lanterns were seen, only they were holding lanterns in both hands, which looked out of place.

"Isn't it time to set up the lights?" Wei Ruojin felt that she was being looked at by others, maybe she was too sensitive.

"Isn't it good for the two of us to be the first lantern in the Northwest?"

"I still want to see the lanterns?" Wei Ruojin really didn't expect that there were no lights in the northwest, so he was a little disappointed. He wanted to sneak out to watch the lanterns when he was in Wei's mansion, and ran into Wei Qian at the door. It seemed that Wei Lun didn't respond She has something to do, so she blocks the door there.

"There will definitely be lights next year. You eat less at night. If you want to eat, I will buy it."

Wei Ruojin stood on the side of the street and waited. Although there were no shops displaying lanterns, it was considered lively today, and there was no shortage of lights for lighting. It looked good, and the original depressed mood improved.

"A Jin." Lin Heng held the lamp in one hand and walked towards him holding something that he didn't know what kind of snack it was.

Wei Ruojin only had eyes on the man walking towards him, and he seemed to understand what it felt like to look at Wannian.

"Ajin."

Wei Ruojin was hugged into a warm embrace, which made him breathless, struggled a bit, and then said: "What did you buy for me, do you want to hug me like this?"

Lin Heng let him go, and the uneasiness in his heart disappeared in an instant, and he still couldn't laugh or cry, "You only think about your food."

"You hug like that, who doesn't worry about eating it." Wei Ruojin took snacks from him, brown fruits not much bigger than fingers, and he grinned, "There are still chestnut sellers."

"Is this thing called a chestnut? I heard from the stall owner that this thing was wrapped in thorns, and it was made with great difficulty. It tastes sweet and delicious."

"It turned out to be raw." Wei Ruojin bit into one, the tender yellow flesh tasted really sweet; but these chestnuts are usually harvested in October, and it is rare for him to keep them alive, "Hurry up and take me." Go and see."

Lin Heng also bought it because he saw that it was rare.Anyway, it was very cheap; he led Wei Ruojin to the side of the stall, only a pair of grandparents guarded him, the child was not very old, and his head was bigger because he was thin.

"Old man, how many chestnuts do you have here?" Wei Ruojin asked aloud, there are so many people in the mansion, no matter how much they can eat.

The old man hurriedly stood up and bowed his body, saying: "I have seen noble people...all...here."

A small basket, only half a basket.

"My lord...there is nothing bad here, I picked them out."

"I want everything, just send it to the Northwest Prince's Mansion, there will be enough food and cloth for you."

The old man was so happy that he bowed again and again, Wei Ruojin asked again: "How can you eat these things?"

"This... the medicine hall collected a lot of weeds before, saying that they can cure diseases. We also ate these things when we were hungry, so we wanted to take them to the medicine hall, but the medicine hall didn't accept them. We can only Take it here and sell it, so as not to make a trip in vain."

Wei Ruojin nodded, and Lin Heng took the words, "Send it to the Northwest Prince's Mansion. It doesn't matter if you want food, cloth or money."

"Actually, there are quite a lot of food that can be eaten in the mountains. Let's plant them later." Wei Ruojin said with a smile.Lin Heng just looked at him, knowing in his heart that maybe he had some new ideas.

Suddenly, there was a scream not far away, and the crowd began to disperse, most of them rushed in their direction, Wei Ruojin was tightly protected by Lin Heng in his arms.

"The Jue people have entered the city, the Jue people have entered the city!"

At first there was only one person shouting, and then many others shouted for unknown reasons, Wei Ruojin looked up at Lin Heng with an extremely ugly expression.

Lin Heng's expression at this time was also extremely ugly, but it was impossible for Jue people to enter the city at this time, and it was even more impossible to sneak into Xinglin City, some people wanted to mess with the water here.

Today, during the Lantern Festival, there were already more people than usual. Even if they wanted to shout a few words, the panicked crowd didn't even bother to listen and couldn't listen.

"Fan Wei, send the soldiers guarding the city over here immediately!" Lin Heng issued the order, and fortunately Fan Wei and Hu Qi followed today.

Taking Wei Ruojin aside, "I'll take you back to the palace first, and leave it to Fan Wei and the others."

Wei Ruojin also knew that staying here would only hinder him, so he said, "Go and see first, I'll just go back by myself, isn't there still Commander Hu?"

"No, I'm worried. Although it's unlikely that the Ranjue people caused the riot, they must be targeting us. Be good, and I'll send you back." Lin Heng was worried.

"No, you'd better go to the place where you found out. It's too late. I'm afraid there won't be any traces left. It's fine if Commander Hu sees me off." Wei Ruojin frowned as she looked at the panic-stricken people. Hurry up and bring people over, there are so many people, it's not good if there is a stampede.

Lin Heng gritted his teeth, "No, I'm worried, follow me closely."

Wei Ruojin was stunned for a moment, but he held his hand tightly; the two of them went against the flow of people together, and squeezed into the place where the screaming just happened.

A strong bloody smell came over the face, and three people were lying on the open space that was forcibly left behind. Blood flowed all over the ground.

Wei Ruojin hurried forward, putting his hands on his neck, he couldn't feel the slightest pulse; as soon as he raised his head, he saw Lin Heng shook his head at him.

"They were all killed with a single blow." Wei Ruojin stood up, but unfortunately, the people around had all run away. At this moment, no one could see who the murderer was, and he didn't even know how many murderers there were.

"My lord, my subordinates have already controlled the crowd. Except for a few people rubbing their bodies, there is no serious problem." Fan Wei came to report profusely in sweat.

There were two more rows of yamen servants on both sides of the street, and Wei Ruojin felt relieved, as long as the matter is under control for the time being, the rest only needs to be investigated. In a place like Xinglin City, if there are really random people sneaking in, it will be very difficult. It will be clear soon.

Wei Ruojin returned to the palace, but Lin Heng immediately turned around and went to work.

Lin Heng said that it was impossible to do such a thing at this time, and Wei Ruojin believed it. They are too busy to take care of themselves now, and they even went to Dachang territory to cause chaos at this time, maybe they think they are not messy enough.

But not necessarily, if one of Ranjue's princes now dominates and is in a complete advantage, some of them may want to use Dachang's soldiers to pull people down; but this kind of risk is too great, I'm afraid it will be easy to ask God It's hard to send God off.

Wei Ruojin wrote down her conjecture, but if it wasn't for Ranjue, then who would it be?

He suddenly remembered that it seemed that since Cai Neiguan was kicked out of the palace, there had been no news of him, and he didn't even know when he left the city.

Is it possible that Cai Neiguan was disgruntled and deliberately retaliating?

If it was really Cai Neiguan's revenge, it would be unforgivable!

Lin Heng didn't come back until midnight, and Wei Ruojin hurried up to meet him, "You've been busy all night, you're hungry, eat something." He didn't bother the kitchen, so he used the small stove in the room to heat up the food.

Lin Heng gulped down half a bowl before slowing down, and said, "I just found a few knives with bloody clothes in the alley. The knives are of ordinary standard, and the logo was wiped off on purpose."

"I'm more inclined to think that Cai Neiguan did it."

Lin Heng shook his head, "The matter is still unclear, don't run around more these days, and don't easily withdraw the private guards who stay by your side."

There was something on her mind, Wei Ruojin couldn't sleep well, and woke up not long after dawn; Lin Heng only had so many private guards, some of them had to be kept in the capital, and a few people had to be left to protect him, and the rest had to be Monitoring Xinglin City is not enough at all, it is enough for such a thing to happen once.

After eating breakfast, Wei Ruojin went to the street again. After what happened last night, the street became much quieter; he went straight to the restaurants that invited him to dinner for the first time, and ordered a portion of mutton.
