Chapter 22: You have always been the one writing to me
"I know what I am doing, so don't worry about it."
Yun Wanyao lowered her eyes and replied, sighing helplessly in her heart.
The King of Qi came to see her, could she hide away? Besides, the things in my sister's mind have not happened yet. Now he has her in his heart and eyes, and he has never been sorry for her. If she alienates herself from him, she will feel guilty.
"Okay, just be aware of what's going on. Don't be so stupid that you get cheated and crippled without knowing what's going on all day long."
Yun Wanye rolled his eyes and said something contemptuous.
Since she said that, he certainly couldn't continue preaching to her. After all, he was only born half a cup of tea earlier than her, and preaching to her would only make her feel unconvinced.
*It's night~
It was a dark and windy night.
After two days of waiting, Lu Wu finally found an opportunity to lure away the personal guards and successfully handed Yang Xiner, the confession letter, and Yun Zheng's handwritten letter of rebuke to Lin Weian.
He confessed everything about Yang Xiner's use of Madam Yun's name.
Lin Weian looked at the confession letter carefully. His expression was terrifyingly calm the whole time. No emotion could be seen on his elegant and humble face.
"Our lord said that since Madam Yang and Lord Lin are so in love, he will do you a favor and give her to you. Lord Lin doesn't need to be too grateful."
"But don't use the guise of our mistress anymore."
"Our lord is just a warrior, he can't compare to Lord Lin who is well-read and full of great truths."
"If the mistress's reputation is tarnished this time, and the master does something bad in his rage, it will bring disgrace to Lord Lin and make the entire Lin family restless. That will not end well. What do you think, Lord Lin?"
When talking about 'well-read in the books of sages and full of profound truths', Lu Wu deliberately emphasized his tone, which was filled with unignorable sarcasm.
This Minister of the Secretariat, who in the outside world would not praise him as a "gentleman", but who would have thought that he would secretly correspond with a married woman? Although it was Yang Xiner who seduced her in the name of his wife, he did not shy away from replying and maintaining long-term contact, which was shameless.
No wonder the lord cursed so harshly.
If he was not afraid that this incident would affect the mistress's reputation, given his lord's temper, he would not just scold the man angrily, but would directly beat him to the ground and make him cry for his parents.
Lin Weian finally finished reading the confession, folded the document without any emotion, and turned to look at the dirty and haggard woman lying on the ground.
There were obvious scars on the back of the woman's hands and neck, and she looked like she had been beaten. When she noticed his gaze, she immediately huddled up in panic, like a frightened bird.
"Is this confession letter real? You were the one who wrote to me all along?"
His voice was very calm, but Yang Xiner inexplicably felt that there was an unspeakable danger hidden beneath the calm. Her whole body trembled violently a few times, and she pursed her lips and said nothing.
The air froze instantly, but Lu Wu laughed in a very unkind way.
"I have delivered the message and sent the person to you. I will not disturb you from spending time with your old lover. Goodbye."
After he finished speaking, before he could leave, the personal guard who had been led away earlier rushed back in time.
After realizing that they had fallen into a trap, the four guards looked unhappy and drew their swords to stop Lu Wu.
Lu Wu chuckled and looked at the man with a gloomy expression with a wild look in his eyes.
"Master Lin, your men are blocking the way, are you going to take action?"
"Let him go."
Lin Weian gave the order in a calm voice. The guards were stunned for a moment, then sheathed their swords in unison.
"Thank you, Master Lin."
Lu Wu casually uttered a few words, and the next moment, he disappeared into the night.
"grown ups?"
The confidant came to Lin Weian unwillingly, stretched out his hand and made a gesture of wiping his neck, and said, "Do you need a subordinate?"
"Need not!"
Lin Weian narrowed his eyes and said indifferently, "Have you forgotten how you were transferred?"
"That man is Yun Zheng's trusted confidant. There must be someone nearby to support him. You can't kill him."
If he had no assurance of escaping, how could that person be so arrogant to intercept him, an official appointed by the imperial court? The confidant was instantly ashamed and humiliated, and wished he could crawl into the crack of the ground on the spot.
"It's all my fault that I'm incompetent and put you in danger. Please punish me."
You are the Minister of the Central Secretariat, but someone approached you so easily. If this gets out, wouldn't all the civil and military officials laugh to death? Lin Weian didn't punish them in the end. He just told them to take this as a warning and not to do it again.
He knew better than anyone that it wasn't that his guards were useless, but that Yun Zheng's trusted men were too strong. Even if he replaced them with a new group of people, the result wouldn't change much.
That night, Lin Weian did not return to the Lin family, but took Yang Xiner to another place. On the way, he took the time to read Yun Zheng's handwritten letter.
Although he had long guessed that the man would not write anything nice, he never expected that all the words were insults to him, spanning more than ten pages, and every sentence was extremely harsh.
Lin Weian was so ashamed that he was so angry that smoke came out of his head. His face turned red and he gritted his teeth and crumpled the letter into a ball.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
"He is indeed a vulgar and reckless man!"
I don’t know how Weiwei fell in love with this barbaric and unreasonable guy.
Thinking of Ye Xiwei, Lin Weian was stunned for a moment. It was as if a heavy stone was pressing down on his heart, making him feel uncomfortable and unable to breathe.
After returning to the villa and interrogating the man all night long, the result made him so upset that he wanted to vomit blood.
The person he had been in contact with for a year was indeed Yang Xiner, not Ye Xiwei, whom he had been thinking about.
All hopes were shattered at this moment. Lin Weian felt dizzy and hopeless. He gritted his teeth and looked at the disheveled woman on the ground with murderous intent.
"How dare you tease me like this!"
"Tell me, why did you do this? Who ordered you to do this?"
Yang Xiner grew up with her cousin, so she naturally knew Lin Weian's feelings for her cousin. He was forced to not fulfill the engagement and marry her, which did not mean that he did not love her.
Therefore, she didn't dare tell him that she wanted to harm Ye Xiwei, for fear that he might get angry and have her beaten to death.
With a turn of her eyes, Yang Xiner came up with an idea.
"Sir, no one ordered me to do this. I just love you, but I know you won't pay attention to me, so I used my cousin's name to do this."
"My Lord, I have been in love with you for a long time. I couldn't help myself and did such a foolish thing. I was wrong, but it was because I loved you too much..."
She hugged his thighs and cried, crying sincerely, and was determined to rely on him.
There was no way back to the Duke's Mansion. Yun Zheng, that stubborn guy, only had Ye Xiwei in his heart, and no matter how she seduced him, it was useless.
The world is difficult, and she is a woman without anyone to rely on in Gaojing. Her future life will not be easy. She might as well take the opportunity to try her luck and find a backer for Qingqing.
Lin Weian's expression gradually became more interesting. He kicked the woman at his feet away and said angrily, "You are so shameless."
After being kicked away, Yang Xiner continued to rush over, hugged his legs and cried for love, but she felt contempt in her heart.
She was shameless, but what about him? How much better was he than her?
Although they each have their own families, they are still thinking about Ye Xiwei.
He talks about benevolence and morality all the time, but he does such despicable things. He is hypocritical and disgusting. He is far worse than that stubborn guy Yun Zheng.
