Chapter 110 Falling into the Water
"But why did Pian Pian ask me to be wary of Duke Song's Mansion?"
Lin Pianran patiently explained, "First of all, Princess Baoqing can be sure that she is not on the same page with us."
"As for his second brother, Song Moshi, that dude is a black sheep and will definitely be a disaster in the future."
"If he makes a monstrous mistake, given how much the Duke of Song and his wife dote on him, they will undoubtedly protect him to the end. The disaster will only get worse and worse, and it will be out of control."
"Emperor Wu of Qin is biased to begin with, and he's determined to find fault with Your Highness."
"It's very possible that Emperor Wu of Qin might become angry because of Song Moshi and implicate Your Highness, Empress Wei, and the general. We must be on guard against such a possibility."
"The black sheep must be removed first, otherwise it will lead to big mistakes that cannot be undone."
Huo Yuchen also agreed with Lin Pianran's idea.
"In fact, I have the same idea. I also know that Song Moshi is a reckless person. Sooner or later, he will cause a huge disaster."
"It's just that I was concerned about family ties and my mother's thoughts, so I didn't take action until now."
"Since Pian Pian said so, I will order him to be dealt with tonight. No trouble will be left behind."
"We are surrounded by wolves now, and we cannot afford to make even the slightest mistake."
After saying that, he hugged Lin Pianran in his arms again, and rubbed the top of Lin Pianran's head affectionately with his chin.
"I know you're doing this all for my own good. We're both in this together, and you don't want us to fall into despair, so you're working so hard to plan for me."
"I understand all of this."
"In the past, my uncle, my mother, and I were all too soft-hearted and too kind. These are the biggest taboos for those in high positions."
"In the face of imperial power, the last thing you should have is kindness, mercy, softness, and family affection."
“Kindness is the original sin, and mercy is the weakness.”
"How many people were ultimately defeated and died tragically in the brutal struggle for imperial power, never having a good end."
"During the previous dynasty, dynasties were constantly changing. Fathers killed sons, sons killed fathers, brothers killed brothers, brothers killed brothers, nephews killed uncles, uncles killed nephews..."
"These phenomena are not uncommon."
"In the face of imperial power, all emotions become so pitiful and ridiculous. All softness will turn into sharp knives and blades, stabbing into one's chest..."
"It's just that I can't be ruthless and heartless..."
Lin Pianran patted Huo Yuchen on the back to comfort him.
"Actually, you're pretty good now. You're neither too impulsive nor too cold-hearted."
"Being indecisive and stubborn are both taboos. We must strike the right balance."
"If a person loses all emotions, wouldn't that be the same as an animal?"
Huo Yuchen didn't say anything else and remained silent for a long time.
Lin Pianran was still very optimistic about Huo Yuchen. He could decisively say that when dealing with Song Mo, it was a decision that an emperor should make.
Gu Qingcheng and Prince Chang, who were standing not far away, looked at Huo Yuchen and Lin Pianran hugging each other intimately, with surprise in their eyes.
They knew that Huo Yuchen cared about Lin Pianran.
But it was beyond their expectation that this man, who had always been indifferent and cold-hearted, would show such a gentle expression to Lin Pianran and hug a woman so intimately.
Gu Qingcheng smiled and said, "The better their relationship is, the more it proves that Lin Pianran is Huo Yuchen's weakness, and we can better exploit this."
Soon, it was time for dinner.
The dinner was held in the Mingyue Palace in the lake.
When Lin Pianran, Huo Yuchen and the eldest princess arrived, some people had already gathered in the hall.
The emperor had not arrived yet, and several noble ladies gathered together to chat.
When they saw the eldest princess and Lin Pianran coming, Gu Qingcheng and Princess Baoqing hurried over. They held the eldest princess' arms on the left and right and took her away.
They wanted to deliberately isolate Lin Pianran.
Put her in an embarrassing situation.
However, Lin Pianran didn't care.
It is more convenient for her to do everything by herself.
She walked to a table and, while no one was paying attention, collected some snacks and some empty cups, plates and dishes and put them into the space.
To prevent others from framing her or something like that.
Then, I found a place by the water with a nice view, looked out into the distance, and enjoyed the beautiful scenery alone.
Huanxue and Tianzhu stayed by her side, never leaving her side.
At the junction of the palace and the lake, lanterns are lit, and the light and shadows are reflected on the shimmering lake surface. When the evening breeze blows, the lanterns sway, and the light and shadows on the lake surface sway with them, and the entire lake surface comes alive.
From time to time, the night breeze brought the woman's silver bell-like laughter, floating in the wind.
Lin Pianran looked at this pleasant night scene and felt relaxed and happy, and it was beautiful beyond words.
Just as Lin Pianran was lost in thought, Lin Chuyan walked over.
Standing not far from Lin Pianran, he was also looking at the night view ahead.
Youyou said, "I didn't expect my sister to be here to relax and have some free time!"
"I never thought that my sister would have a chance to be associated with the royal family."
"I originally thought that you, an orphan girl, were marrying an old widower as his second wife, which was considered marrying above your station."
"I never thought you could even get close to the Crown Prince. I underestimated your seductive skills."
Lin Pianran turned her head and looked at her with disdain.
"Really? Jealousy, envy, or envy?"
"So this is how you, a family of despicable villains, plotted against me?"
"It's a shame that all your plans have failed. Some died, some were injured. It really is retribution!"
"Just mind your own business! You finally managed to climb into Prince Chang's bed. If you lose favor after just a few days, wouldn't you be heartbroken?"
"Also, I have to remind you, sister, that vying for favor is important, but isn't it a bit excessive to wear such heavy makeup and bright clothes when several people in your family have died?"
"Aren't you afraid that your grandmother, brother, and sister will die with grievances in their graves? They'll come back to call you to account?"
"You...you bitch...I'm going to beat you to death..."
As he said that, he rushed towards Lin Pianran aggressively.
Lin Pianran dodged lightly, then pushed her hard from behind, and Lin Chuyan fell into the water with a "splash".
"Ah...ah...help...Lin Pianran is going to kill someone..."
Wow, little Black Lotus has become smarter!
He even knew how to frame someone and make the matter worse.
Some progress.
But the person she met was Lin Pianran, and her conspiracy was destined to fail.
Lin Pianran quickly pretended to cry and shouted, "Hurry... hurry up... Miss Lin San accidentally fell into the lake... hurry up... help... "
