"My brother was so happy at that time, and our whole family was very happy. I was thinking it would be great to have Heng Youyi as my sister-in-law, but the result was..." She snorted coldly, her tone full of disdain.
"After we finished talking that day, a few days later, someone from the Heng family came and warned us to stay away from that woman. They said that they had already arranged a marriage for that woman, and told my brother not to have such wishful thinking."
"She clearly said that the person she is marrying is someone we cannot afford to offend. If my brother doesn't stay away from that woman, his life will be in danger."
"My brother naturally didn't believe it. He went to look for that woman, but she refused to meet him."
"It was near the imperial examination, and my mother was worried that this matter might disturb my brother's mind, so she lied to him that she had seen that woman. She said that she had broken off the engagement and would marry him, and told him to prepare for the exam with peace of mind, and that after he passed the exam, she would come to propose marriage on his behalf."
"I thought the matter was over, but unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, my brother drowned."
"Just as you said, my brother has a very regular schedule. Before the exam, he told us that he would go to bed early and get up late in the next few days to get enough rest. Otherwise, he might not be able to hold on until the third day of the exam."
"But the government officials said that my brother went there for a walk and fell into the water. We didn't believe it, but the government officials ignored it."
"I wanted to ask that woman for help, but she kicked me out."
"The Heng family told us not to go there again and warned us that if we didn't know what was best for us, they would kill our entire family."
"My mother and I are not convinced and want to go to the emperor to file a complaint."
"But I didn't expect the elders of the clan to come and tell us to stop making trouble. If we did, they would expel our entire family from the clan and move my father's grave. We could only endure it."
"Half a year later, that woman married the Marquis of Shunyi as she wished. In order to climb up the social ladder and avoid being caught by the Marquis's mansion, she killed my brother. This way, she could become the Marquis's wife with a clean record."
"That woman is a vicious, fickle woman."
"Miss, I know you mean well, but please do not provoke her because of my brother's affairs. She is now the marquis's wife, in a high position of power, and she can do anything." Lin Ziyu gave her many warnings, fearing that she would be harmed.
Su Yin sighed, "I save that."
Su Yin winked at Xiang Ling, who immediately took out a silver ingot from her purse and handed it to her.
Lin Ziyu evaded the question, "No."
"Please accept it. This is for my brother. Don't be polite to me."
After repeated refusals, the other party finally accepted it.
Before leaving, Lin's mother took out the calligraphy written by Lin Zijin during his lifetime from the house and gave it to her brother.
Su Yin thanked him and left.
When they walked out of the alley, they saw Nangong Jingzhi and his servant sitting at the tea stall. When they saw them come out, they immediately stood up.
"how?"
"What do you think?"
Nangong Jingzhi gave her a thumbs up and said, "You still have a way."
Just an expression of empathy.
Around noon, the two chose a restaurant, asked for another private room, and ordered a lot of dishes. After the dishes were served, Su Yin told him the news she got from the Lin family.
Nangong Jingzhi was shocked after hearing this.
"This is a big plan! I wonder what role the Marquis' Mansion plays in it."
"No matter what role it is, I'm sure it's not a good one. Heng Youyi, on the other hand, is probably still in the dark, not knowing why the Lin mother and daughter hate her so much."
"What? Are you going to remind her?"
"nature."
Otherwise, how could she establish a relationship with her? Only after building the relationship step by step could she guide her step by step and lead her to know Shunyi Hou's evil ambitions in advance.
Shunyi Hou's extermination of Heng Family was definitely not a sudden necessity; he had prepared for it long ago.
In this process, it is naturally easy to find clues.
As long as she is guided properly, I believe Heng Youyi will not be able to find clues. As long as she finds them and knows the purpose of Shunyi Hou, Shunyi Hou will definitely die.
Once Mr. Dian dies, everything will be fine.
Even if Xu Lanzhi's body floats up in the future, they don't have to worry about anyone coming to take revenge.
The right way to deal with potential dangers is to prevent and resolve them in advance.
Passively accepting a beating is always a low priority.
Nangong Jingzhi drank a glass of sake and said, "What a coincidence! I just got the news that Heng Youyi will go to Fahua Temple to pay homage tomorrow."
"Fahua Temple. I haven't been there yet. I should go to the temple to pray and pray for the blessings of all living beings in this world."
"Your wish is truly grand."
"That's right, I have the world in my heart."
The two of them were talking nonsense while eating.
The next morning, Su Yin got up early. She had to arrive at the Fahua Temple before Heng Youyi did. In this way, it would not be considered as a scam, but a coincidence.
As soon as he left Shangjing City, Su Yin noticed that the number of refugees at the city gate increased.
Fortunately, many wealthy families in Shangjing City set up porridge stalls at the city gates, so the outside of the city was very peaceful and there were no riots.
The carriage left Shangjing City and soon arrived at the Fahua Temple, the nearest temple to Shangjing City.
Fahua Temple was a favorite place for noble ladies in the capital.
Su Yin asked for three incense sticks, knelt down devoutly, prayed for peace in the world and well-being of the people, and then asked Xiangling to pay for the incense.
She finished the whole set slowly, and then Heng Youyi appeared.
Heng Youyi noticed Su Yin at first sight, and both of them nodded to each other politely as a greeting.
They had already inquired that after Heng Youyi finished burning incense, she would go to the backyard of the temple and sit for a while under a ginkgo tree before leaving.
Su Yin was waiting for her here early in the morning.
She looked up at the wooden prayer plaques hanging on the ginkgo tree, glanced at them casually, and suddenly thought of something.
perhaps……
Su Yin immediately started searching among these wooden signs.
Xiangling asked curiously, "Miss, what are you looking for?"
Without waiting for her response, Su Yin had already found what she wanted, "Found it."
The handwriting on this wooden plaque is Heng Youyi's.
Since there is Heng Youyi's, there must be Lin Zijin's as well.
I just looked at Lin Zijin's calligraphy yesterday, and it is still easy to find his calligraphy today.
Sure enough, the wooden sign left by Lin Zijin was found near this wooden sign.
Su Yin put the two wooden tablets together to form a complete poem.
"The forest and springs are my home, I don't need to live my life in a fixed way. A branch of yew is as clear as water, please don't let the spring breeze into my home."
Su Yin is not well-educated and cannot understand poetry, but she can still feel the sweet little details hidden between the two people.
At this moment, footsteps were heard behind her. Su Yin turned her head and saw Heng Youyi walking towards her.
When Heng Youyi saw the two wooden signs in Su Yin's hand from a distance, his expression changed slightly and he walked towards her quickly.
