Lin Chujiu rode very fast, she will almost arrive half earlier of the time than when she left. Behind her, the shadow guards, who were following closely, their heart almost leap out from their chest. They wanted to hold and control the reigns for Lin Chujiu.
Lin Chujiu's horse-riding skill was good, but… …
Riding horse like a madman in the street is dangerous.
What if someone, who wants to harm her pop out and she lost control of the horse and she fell off?
At such a fast speed, they can't guarantee that they'll be able to catch her in time.
If she becomes disabled or died, they will die!
Fortunately, although Lin Chujiu rode the horse like crazy, she still has a sense of proportion. She will not make fun of her life or the lives of others. When the population in the street increased, she slowed down.
But still, the shadow guards couldn't feel at ease. Their hanging heart only calmed down when Lin Chujiu arrived in Xiao Wangfu without any problem.
"Wangfei didn't fall off the horse, this is great."
The shadow guard, who went out with Lin Chujiu expressed his feelings.
Housekeeper Cao already knows what happened to the Meng Family. So this early morning, he let the servants changed all the bright color in the house into white.
A granddaughter who married outside doesn't necessarily need to do this, but Lin Chujiu was now the headmaster of Xiao Wangfu. Housekeeper Cao knows Lin Chujiu and Meng Laofuren's closeness. So of course, he must do this, as to not make Lin Chujiu dissatisfied.
"Wangfei, you can change to your mourning clothes." When Housekeeper Cao saw Lin Chujiu's eyes were red, he carefully opened his mouth.
Lin Chujiu slightly nodded her head and said nothing.
Housekeeper Cao knows that Lin Chujiu was in a bad mood, so he adjusted his tone when he said: "Wangfei, this slave made all the necessary arrangement, you can go back in Guogongfu with confidence. This slave ready everything, you can go back as soon as you changed your clothes."
"Mmm." Lin Chujiu simply said and walked towards the front yard.
When Housekeeper Cao saw the four maidservants came out and greet Lin Chujiu, he quietly retired.
After moving to the front yard, everything became much more convenient than before to Lin Chujiu. Lin Chujuu was now used to living in the front yard. If she moved back to the backyard, she's afraid that she'll have a hard time.
However, all her dowry was still in the backyard. Housekeeper Cao asked Lin Chujiu several times if she wants to move all her belongings to the front yard, but Lin Chujiu didn't agree.
The dowry that Lin Furen prepared for her was valuable, but not very expensive. The silver ticket was collected by her, and the others were left untouched.
This was the first time the four maidservants saw Lin Chujiu very depressed in the first half of the year. They didn't dare to speak comforting words, they only said: "If a person dies, that person cannot come back to life. Wangfei, you can cry." After that, they silently served Lin Chujiu to bathe and changed clothes.
Lin Chujiu's mourning clothes were immediately made by Feicui and the Embroidery Mama as soon as they received the news. It was a bit large, but Lin Chujiu didn't pay attention to it.
And because she needs to rush back to the Meng Family, Lin Chujiu didn't wash her hair. Zhenzhu pulled up Lin Chujiu's hair into a bun and put a white flower hairpin.
After cleaning up, Feicui saw Lin Chujiu in a daze and still not getting up. She tried to remind her: "Wangfei, it's done."
Lin Chujiu was in a very low spirit. She only came back to her senses when she heard Feicui's words. She didn't look at herself in the mirror, she just stood up and went out… …
The dress was a bit big, so Lin Chujiu looked thin and weak. Coupled with her fragile and helpless appearance, people couldn't help but want to protect her.
With a natural engraved white hibiscus flower, Lin Chujiu, who was wearing a white dress looked particularly very beautiful. Unlike her usual dignified and elegant appearance, this time, Lin Chujiu looked very lovely, but… …
At this time, who will be in the mood to care about beauty?
After changing her clothes, Lin Chujiu didn't even eat, she was about to go back to the Meng Family, but the shadow guard appeared in front of her in the yard: "Wangfei, this subordinate found something about Meng Laofuren's death. Please allow this subordinate to report first." Things were more serious than they thought, it will greatly affect their future, Lin Chujiu must decide.
If this were not the case, the shadow guard will not be so anxious to stop Lin Chujiu at this time.
"Is it very urgent?" Lin Chujiu said with a hoarse tone, obviously, she cried earlier.
The shadow guard thought for a moment, then said: "It's quite serious."
"Go to the study room." Lin Chujiu said without any emotion. No one knows if it was because she has calmed down.
The shadow guard knew that Lin Chujiu was in a hurry to go back to the Meng Family. So as soon as he arrived in the study room, he knelt and reported: "Wangfei, this subordinate found a spy of the emperor. And it's more than one."
"The emperor?" When Lin Chujiu heard this, her sad eyes immediately lit up: "Those two suicidal women are the emperor's spies?"
"They're not. Those two women had contact with the emperor's spy before they died." The shadow guard quietly looked up at Lin Chujiu. When he saw Lin Chujiu still had a calm expression, he said: "Wangfei, this subordinate suspected that Meng Laofuren's death has a connection with the emperor."
Lin Chujiu slightly frowned her eyebrows: "He has no reason to kill my grandmother."
The shadow guard knew that Lin Chujiu would think so, so he continued to say: "Wangfei, when wangye went to the front line, 70% of the troops that were with him are Guo Gongfu's old subordinates. Although those old subordinates never had contact again with the Meng Family. They admired the old lady from the bottom of their heart."
His last sentence, the shadow guard doesn't need to elaborate more, Lin Chujiu understood what he means.
If news came out that Meng Laofuren's death has something to do with Lin Chujiu, then those old subordinate of Guo Gongfu will put this account on Xiao Tianyao.
Even knowing someone deliberately provokes this event, those old subordinate will still think that Xiao Tianyao killed the old lady to win over Guo Gongfu's men.
By then, those 30,000 soldiers around Xiao Tianyao will not become his strength, but more likely resistance. And in anger, they will face Xiao Tianyao's sword.
The reason that the shadow guard said was feasible, but… …
"Before the war starts, the emperor will not make such a move." Lin Chujiu believes that the emperor also has a brain.
Even if the emperor wants to use Guo Gongfu's subordinate to make calculations towards Xiao Tianyao, it will not be at this time. The timing is not right.
"Wangfei, the emperor's intention to kill wangye never stops. As long as wangye die, the emperor will not hesitate to sacrifice a few cities." The shadow guard was convinced that this matter was the emperor's doing.
"Although I don't have much contact with the emperor, I know that inside his heart, he values the east country more than anyone else. If this is the emperor's doing, he will not let wangye lead those armies in the first place." Lin Chujiu was not defending the emperor, it's just, she doesn't believe that the emperor will play a drama at this time: "Don't get confused. Try and check this matter again, there must be flow in it."
When the shadow guard heard Lin Chujiu's words, he was a bit disappointed. However, he still said: "This subordinate understand." Thinking about it again, if the emperor did such a low thing, he was not worthy to be their wangye's opponent.
"Wangfei, there is one more thing…" In addition to reporting these findings, he also asked Lin Chujiu how to deal with these clues… …
