At this time, Lin Yue had already arrived at Songyue Palace and opened the Yunshui Tower with the key.
The environment here is quiet and peaceful. When you open the window, you can almost see the entire imperial garden, and you can also see the main hall of Shoukang Palace. No wonder Xiao Jingyun chose this place as his study. When he is in a bad mood, he can enjoy the scenery, and when he is worried about his mother, he can check on her at any time. It is indeed very convenient.
The bookshelves in the room are filled with military books and various martial arts secrets, as well as many books about people's livelihood and classics.
Lin Yue flipped through a Taoist scripture and found a sentence written on it: "So-called destiny is nothing more than human choice."
The following is circled in pen: "The most emotional person is foolish, the most natural person is wise, and the most rational person is fair."
Another line of small characters read: "If there is no great road leading to the sky, we will be the ones to open it. The darkest darkness is caused by the situation."
After reading this sentence, I realized that he had indeed seen the darkness and was beginning to feel a bit self-deprecating.
But he did not give up on himself, but chose to go to war, leading the way and defending the territory.
Thinking of this, Lin Yue unconsciously wanted to take out the mirror and take a look.
Suddenly, a figure appeared from the window, scaring Lin Yue so much that her hands trembled and the mirror fell to the ground in an instant.
She thought it was broken, so she quickly picked it up to check, and luckily it was fine.
He breathed a sigh of relief but also angrily said, "Are you sick? You're climbing through the window in your own home!"
Xiao Huaizheng was embarrassed and said shyly: "I sneaked here and didn't dare let my father know."
Lin Yue didn't bother to pay attention to him and wiped the mirror carefully.
Xiao Huaizheng saw nothing special about it, so he asked, "Did my uncle give it to you?"
Lin Yue said coldly: "No."
Xiao Huaizheng said: "Oh...then why are you so precious?"
Lin Yue looked up and said unhappily, "What do you know? This is a token of love between your uncle and me."
Xiao Huai was feeling jealous and made two clicks of the tongue.
Lin Yue glared at him and asked, "What do you want to see me for?"
Xiao Huaizheng said: "It's nothing, it's just that my eldest brother called the imperial physician when he returned to the East Palace. I heard that he is not in good health. You'd better not contact him, so as to avoid him relying on you in the future."
Lin Yue smiled and looked up at Xiao Huaizheng sarcastically.
Xiao Huaizheng said guiltily: "What are you looking at? His illness is none of my business."
Lin Yue: [Of course it’s none of your business. You knew he was sick, and you deliberately provoked him to have an attack, then watched him die in front of you.]
"It's such a big deal. You know it yourself, but you told me? Are you trying to use me to take the blame for you?"
Xiao Huaizheng: [……]
Lin Yue said: "Anyway, don't come to me if you have nothing to do. I don't know you well."
Xiao Huaizheng asked, "Why does the Empress reject me so much? Is it just because I'm a concubine's son and haven't been crowned a king yet?"
Lin Yue raised her hand to stop him: "Stop it, don't try this on me, it's too much!"
Xiao Huaizheng smiled and said, "I really do have something to ask for your help, but I won't make it hard for you. Before, my subordinates gave me a manor with five courtyards as a gift. It's worth at least five thousand taels of silver. If you help me, then this manor will naturally be given to you as a gift."
When Lin Yue heard this, she thought, "Good boy, you are quite capable."
She immediately said, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
Xiao Huaizheng said, "My grandfather was once a lieutenant general stationed in Duyun Prefecture. He had one son and two daughters. In addition to my mother and aunt, there was also an uncle who was said to have disappeared long ago and his whereabouts have been unknown since then."
"I would like to ask the Imperial Aunt to help me find out privately. If you can find it, your nephew will give you a reward."
Lin Yue looked at Xiao Huaizheng suspiciously: [Could it be that you have already realized that Huo Renli is a fake? ]
"But most of the Huo family are dead. Unless we bring your aunt to the capital, how can we identify her?"
"The Duyun prefect and Huo Renli colluded, openly and covertly bullying your aunt. Their family was nearly tortured to death. If they weren't worried about you pursuing them later, their family would have been destroyed long ago."
[If we go looking for them at this time, I'm afraid they won't even be able to reach the capital.]
Lin Yue thought about it and quickly said, "This matter can only be investigated privately. I can help you find someone to do the legwork, but I can't guarantee success."
[After all, Duyun is too far away, and it takes a lot of time to go back and forth]
Xiao Huaizheng has already obtained the information he wanted. Next, he just needs to find someone to pretend to be a member of the Huo family and lure Huo Renli into the trap.
The rest doesn't matter at all.
But in order to make the imperial aunt believe him and gradually accept his change, he still said respectfully: "Then I'll leave it to the imperial aunt. Don't worry, even if only my aunt's family is left and there is no news of my uncle, I will still give the house to you."
"It's just that it's not convenient to do so in the palace right now. When the aunt leaves the palace, I will personally send her to your residence."
After Xiao Huaizheng finished speaking, he bowed respectfully and left.
Lin Yue looked out the empty window and wondered why it was so inconvenient for her in the palace.
Xiao Huaizheng was still going to the palace to look for her? Did he want to see her more?
How come after saving the villain, he will still haunt you?
Lin Yue wiped the mirror and said to herself, "This child doesn't seem to have grown crooked yet. Should I give him a hand?"
"Other people who marry into the royal family enjoy a life of luxury and majesty, but I can't even see my husband's back after marrying into the royal family, and I have to help take care of the children. It's such a miserable life."
Far away at the border, Xiao Jingyun, holding a mirror, had his mouth twitching and was speechless.
Why didn't she mention it? When she heard Xiao Huai was about to send her into the compound, her tone was so happy.
Haha, his princess is a little money-grubber!
