Chapter 278: Finding the Way Back
Hearing Lin Xian'er still dreaming and talking in her sleep, Xue Bin's face straightened!
"Xian'er, it's not that I owe Defang a favor, it's that he saved my life and owed me a favor. I've been working for him these years, one is to repay the favor, and the other is to avenge my parents and family members who were killed by the Khitans.
You should know that Defang has never been happy with you. He treated you well in the past because he only loved you as a little sister.
Xian'er, don't be stubborn. The Princess of Qin is Defang's enemy. Anyone who dares to frame the Princess of Qin will be sentenced to death! Not to mention you, even if If a prince or princess dared to harm the Princess of Qin, Zhao Defang would kill them without a doubt. Xian'er, Defang let you off the hook, is that..."
Lin Xian'er suddenly caught some information and asked in shock, "Cousin, were the Second and Fourth Princes killed by Brother Defang because they harmed the Princess of Qin?"
In order to make Lin Xian'er realize how serious a crime it was to frame the Princess of Qin, Xue Bin nodded, "That's right, the King of Qin will never show mercy to anyone who dares to harm the Princess of Qin!"
“Hahahaha…” Lin Xian’er stood up and laughed wildly, “It’s true that a hero gets angry for a beauty!…Hahahaha…On what basis? On what basis is this beauty the silly princess and not me, Lin Xian’er? Hahahaha…A hero gets angry for a beauty, this beauty should be me, Lin Xian’er! Wuuuuuu…”
Lin Xian’er cried and laughed, hysterically, in a crazy state!
Xue Bin watched silently, with mixed feelings in his heart, feeling heavy and depressed. Xian’er was really hopeless.
After Lin Xian’er cried and laughed hysterically for a while, she was so tired that she fell on the bed and sobbed.
Xue Bin felt distressed and sympathetic. He walked over and patted her back to comfort her, saying softly: "Xian'er, come with me? Leave this place that makes you sad, and let's live a peaceful and indifferent life, okay?"
"Go with you to the bitter and cold place in the north? Is this Zhao Defang's punishment for me?" Lin Xian'er raised her head, her eyes red. "
Xian'er, I won't go to Liao to work, I will stay in Yanmen Pass, you can choose to go to Daizhou or Zhending Prefecture. I am rich, and I will not let you suffer." Xue Bin advised sincerely.
"What if I don't leave? How will Zhao Defang deal with me?" Lin Xian'er asked.
Xue Bin was silent for a moment, then told the truth, "Xian'er, you have committed a capital crime. Cousin Defang spared your life because of our blood relationship, but... he will not let you stay in the capital."
Lin Xian'er was filled with hatred and anger, but she also knew that Xue Bin was not trying to scare her. For the sake of that silly princess, Qin Wang Zhao Defang was really able to disown all his relatives.
After closing her eyes and thinking for a while, Lin Xian'er opened her eyes and said pitifully and aggrievedly, "Okay! Cousin, I'll go with you."
Xue Bin was overjoyed, his heart pounding!
: "Xian'er, you finally figured it out. You have come to the right path and returned home. In this life, your cousin will never let you down!"
Lin Xian'er got up from the bed, looking weak and powerless: "Cousin, let's go! Take me out of this gloomy and dark dungeon first."...
In the Qin Palace, Qin Prince Zhao Defang, Luo Li, the Ghost Hand Poison Doctor, and Yun Yi were discussing things.
"Tomorrow is the seven-day deadline, Uncle Master, it seems that you have to go to the palace."
The Ghost Hand Poison Doctor raised his eyebrows, "This palace is not the Yanluo Palace. The old emperor insisted on asking me to go, so I'll go!"
He turned to Luo Li with a flattering smile and asked, "Master, have you extracted the castor bean toxin? If you have, bring me a bottle. I will find a chance to put it in the emperor's food, and he will die without knowing how he died."
Luo Li didn't say anything, got up and went to the inner room. He came back in a moment with a small porcelain bottle in his hand.
The Ghost Hand Poison Doctor's eyes were sly, and he reached out to take it, but the porcelain bottle was snatched away by the King of Qin.
: "Uncle Master, it's not the right time yet. Wait a few days. You don't need to do it yourself. The insider I arranged in the palace will do it."
The Ghost Hand Poison Doctor snorted twice in dissatisfaction, "Hmph! The experience of killing an emperor with my own hands was ruined by you."
Yun Yi smiled and advised: "Senior Ghost Hand, the prince's arrangements are not yet complete, so don't be anxious. Just come back from the palace safely."
: "Yun Yi, do you look down on me?" The Ghost Hand Poison Doctor glared, "I, the Ghost Hand Poison Doctor, went around the palace, and I lost a hair?"
"No, no, you have misunderstood, Senior Guishou. With your ability, you can even walk around the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea and escape unscathed." Yun Yi quickly flattered him with a smile.
Luo Li sighed, "Now, the emperor is becoming more suspicious. Who knows when he will take our lives? This situation has really reached the point of life and death. Zhao Defang, you must not lose your composure at the critical moment. You must plan carefully to save our lives. The safety of the queen mother and Yongqing in the palace must be protected." Qin
Wang Zhao Defang's eyes were firm and confident, "Li'er, don't worry, I have taken everyone's safety into consideration."
Luo Li was still a little uneasy in her heart. Since ancient times, how could a palace coup not result in rivers of blood?
No, there was! Taizu Zhao Kuangyin was violently killed, and there was no river of blood when the current emperor ascended the throne. Only an emperor and dozens of eunuchs and concubines died. It seems that the old Zhao family really has this talent inheritance!
Thinking of this, Luo Li felt more at ease, and a smile appeared on the corner of her lips.
"Master, what are you laughing at? What interesting things did you think of?" Ghost Hand Poison Doctor asked curiously.
Luo Li smiled wickedly, "I couldn't help laughing when I thought of the excellent talent inheritance of the old Zhao family."
"Princess, Hong Gu is back and brought her daughter Ping'er back." Yingchun, who was guarding the door, reported loudly with joy.
"Little Ping'er is back!" Luo Li got up happily and walked out.
In the yard, Hong Gu was holding a little girl of five or six years old, and was surrounded by Tingting, Wanqiu, Banxia, Yingxue and several other maids, chattering and laughing.
Luo Li walked down the stone steps under the corridor eaves quickly, and said happily: "Xiao Ping'er, come and let Aunt Luo see you!"
Several maids smiled and stepped aside, and Hong Gu took a little girl with a bun on her head and walked forward.
Hong Gu pulled her daughter's hand, "Ping'er, kowtow to the princess, she is our lifesaver."
Ping'er was timidly looking at the princess who was as beautiful as a fairy. Hearing her mother's words, she quickly knelt on the ground, "bang bang bang!" She kowtowed three times.
Luo Li took two steps forward, hugged her with a distressed look, and wiped the dirt off her forehead. "Silly girl, your mother asked you to kowtow to me, and you just did it for her. But these three real kowtows, don't make such a smart little head stupid." The
nervous Ping'er laughed out loud, and her restraint and nervousness disappeared immediately. She stroked Luo Li's cheek with her little hand, "Aunt Luo, how come you are so beautiful? Your skin is so white, tender and smooth!"
"Mmmmm!" Luo Li kissed Ping'er's little face beautifully, "Ping'er has a good eye. She can see Aunt Luo's peerless beauty at such a young age. She is such a smart and lovely baby."
Qin Wang Zhao Defang stood under the eaves, smiling at the conceited princess, with a big smile on his face.
"Master! You are back, and you brought Ping'er back for me? Oops! Oops! I have another little sister under my Yu Li!" Yu Li led Ni Shan'er, Meng Qian and Meng Xue, and ran over excitedly.
Luo Li handed Ping'er to Yu Li, and soon laughed as she watched the children greet each other and introduce themselves.
Hong Gu's eyes were filled with tears as she watched with satisfaction as her daughter was held by Yu Li and Ni Shan Er's hands. Meng Qian and Meng Xue followed closely, laughing and talking as they walked towards the backyard.
