Chapter 67: Fooling Li Wenjing
Lin Zhiyi got on the carriage, found a pair of thin quilts from the carriage, and lay down on the couch on the other side.
Li Wenjing then realized that Lin Zhiyi was probably going to sleep here.
However, this is her carriage, so it is only natural for her to sleep here.
"Miss Lin, you don't have to thank me. Actually, this treasure was given to me by Miss Lin."
"However, this treasure has no fire inside, so how does it emit light? Where did Miss Lin get this treasure?"
Li Wenjing finally asked.
He was so exhausted from thinking about it.
Lin Zhiyi glanced at Li Wenjing and immediately came up with a plan!
It’s better to fool this ancient person.
"This is made of Kunlun Mountain meteorite iron, and contains the essence of thunder and fire. It was given to me by an immortal."
Lin Zhiyi said seriously.
Li Wenjing was shocked, "Miss Lin has seen an immortal?"
Seeing Li Wenjing's inexperienced look, Lin Zhiyi nodded solemnly.
You little bastard, you can’t fool him!
Lin Zhiyi gestured for Li Wenjing to hand her the flashlight. Pointing to the flashlight's switch, she said, "This is a mechanism. When it's on, it's like heaven and earth intertwining, drawing in the energy to the mysteries, unlocking the treasure. When it's off, it's like the blocked hexagram of the negative hexagram, its brilliance withheld."
"I see! Miss Lin is willing to give this treasure to me. Jing is really grateful."
Feeling that Li Wenjing's eyes had changed when he looked at her, Lin Zhiyi was so happy that her heart was beaming with joy.
Lin Zhiyi waved towards Li Wenjing. When he came closer, she lowered her voice and said, "The old immortal insisted on taking me as his disciple, saying that I had extraordinary talent. I couldn't bear to leave my parents and brother at home, so I refused."
Li Wenjing looked a little regretful, "What a pity."
"It's not a pity, it's not a pity. Although I didn't leave with the immortal, he still taught me some things.
This girl has been enlightened by the immortals, and can get a glimpse of the secrets of heaven, and occasionally predict good and bad luck."
The mystery that Lin Zhiyi talked about.
"Do you know why I don't let you marry Mu Yunzhao? It's because she's unlucky for you. With her by your side, you won't live past thirty."
Li Wenjing was skeptical and just looked at Lin Zhiyi.
"Don't believe it?"
"If Miss Lin can see the secrets of heaven, why not first look at your own destiny."
She was deceived by the Qin family. If she could see through the secrets, could she still marry into the Qin family?
He is not a three-year-old child.
"A doctor can't heal himself, nor can a fortune teller tell his own fortune. It's easy to see through others' secrets, but it's hard to see through oneself." Lin Zhi thought for a moment, then said, "That's right. I can't just tell you that without any evidence. How about this, let me do the math."
Lin Zhiyi closed his eyes, gestured randomly with his hands, and spoke incoherently. After a long while, he said, "It will rain tomorrow afternoon, and it will rain for three days."
Lin Zhiyi remembered that the book wrote that it started raining on the road on the thirteenth day of exile.
Although the rain was not heavy, it was enough to make it difficult for the prisoners to travel. However, the court had rules and they had to travel as usual even on rainy days.
After a rain, the weather turned cold. Some female prisoners, who were already weak, caught a cold and became seriously ill.
And at this moment, he was assassinated.
Therefore, many people were killed in that assassination, and Li Wenjing was also seriously injured.
"On the fifth day, there will be another assassination attempt. There will be about thirty or forty men in black, all experts. The Jinwu Guards will not be able to defeat them. Young Master Li, you should prepare early."
"Okay, I'm tired and need to rest. You should go to sleep too."
After a while, there were sounds of deep sleep coming from the couch, but Li Wenjing couldn't sleep.
Lin Fu was his confidant, so logically speaking, his daughter should also believe him.
But I always feel that Lin Zhiyi has a secret.
Could it be true that she met an immortal as she said?
If this is the case, then the Qin family's fate would make sense, and her sudden disappearance and reappearance that night would also make sense.
Forget it, just believe her this time!
Lin Zhiyi never expected that her casual lie would actually dispel Li Wenjing's suspicion about her sudden disappearance that day.
The Lin family slept well that night, but Liang Xi had a miserable time.
At Zhao Zhan's instruction, he was whipped thirty times before being released.
It was too dark last night and Liang's mother couldn't see clearly, but today she saw that her son Liang Xi was seriously injured all over his body. The police had tortured him to death.
A surge of anger surged in her heart, and she wanted to find the Lin family to question them, but she took two steps and turned back.
If she was also beaten by the officials like Liang Xi, who would take care of her two little grandsons?
"Son, don't you dare mess with the Lin family again. Blame Mu Yunzhao. She's the one who caused all this."
Liang's mother's voice was sad.
Liang Xi opened his eyes, full of complaints towards his mother, "Mom, it's all your fault. If you had found out more, no one would have taken advantage of you."
Liang Xi was awakened by a beating of whip.
Only then did he realize that even Mu Yunzhao was using him.
Yesterday's humiliation and beating were all caused by two women, Mu Yunzhao and Lin Zhiyi.
They kept waiting for him, and this beating was not over yet.
"Get ready, it's time to go!"
At the officer's roar, everyone stood up and packed their things.
The Yun family had also finished their meal and were making preparations before departure.
Lin Zhiyi took the lead in stretching, and many people joined in.
They also saw that the Lin family walked so much every day without complaining about leg and foot pain. After a night's rest, they were full of energy the next day, so they came to ask Lin's mother, Gu Qingwan and Fang Luo.
After learning that the exercises they practiced before setting out every day were very effective, he became interested and joined in.
Lin Zhiyi drove the carriage, thinking about what had happened in the past two days.
Others had no food to eat during their exile, but the Lin family made money from it, which would definitely make people jealous.
Maybe he would come to the Lin family every now and then to cause trouble and stir up some trouble.
It would be better to take the money she earned and use it for the people. Gaining a reputation as a kind person is secondary. The important thing is that some of these fugitives will sooner or later return to the imperial city with the deposed prince.
Why doesn't she take this opportunity to win him over?
If it is true as written in the book, and the Lin family really reaches that point, these people will stand on the side of the Lin family because the Lin family has helped them.
Even if they don't stand on the same side, they are not opposites.
The weather today is very hot and humid, there is no wind, and the leaves are motionless, as if they were welded to the branches.
The convicts couldn't help cursing. What a horrible weather! It was so hot before noon. How were they going to survive the rest of the day?
They had not even completed half the journey.
They were born into a life of luxury and had never suffered such hardship.
Some people even complained in their hearts that all this was to blame on the deposed prince, asking why he used witchcraft and implicated them.
At noon, the exile team passed by a county post station.
Lin Zhiyi wants to take Dalin to go shopping.
Today we need to purchase a batch of straw raincoats, bamboo hats, tents, etc.
Of course, there must be enough food and medicine to treat colds.
Just as she was about to go out, Mu Yunzhao came up to her and asked, "Sister Lin, are you going out?"
