Chapter 769: Self-Rebellion
From the moment the killer sent by Ximen Hucheng made a move on Ximen Yuqing, all this was irreparable. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info An emperor, it is impossible to leave a courtier who dares to kill him by his side, let alone let him monopolize power and hold heavy troops.
Therefore, regardless of whether Lin Wan agrees with Ximen Yuqing's approach or not, she has no other way now. She can only help Ximen Yuqing and eradicate Ximen Hucheng and his three sons. Even if Ximen Yuqing really became a loner in the end, it was his own choice.
As long as Ximen Yuqing does not die, Ximen Hucheng and Ximen Yuling will not dare to act rashly. Therefore, now there is no need to worry about the safety of Ximen Longao, the emperor of Xiling Kingdom. The top priority at the moment is to find out the weaknesses of Ximen Hucheng and Ximen Yuling, find a breakthrough, and let them mess with themselves.
Ximen Hucheng's weakness is that he has soft ears and obeys his son Ximen Yuling. And Ximen Yuling's weakness is his infatuation with Lan Ziling.
Lin Wan sighed helplessly and commanded, "Gale Wind, you let the hidden soul stare at Lan Ziyue and Lan Ziling. Whatever they do, they have to come back and report it immediately. Let the hidden soul be more careful, and not let Zhou Tianhong find any clues. We must be very careful now that nothing slips through the cracks. ā
"Yes, miss, my subordinates understand. Gale immediately bowed down to receive the order.
Lin Wan frowned and thought for a while, and then asked, "What about Prince Changfeng, did you also follow Sister Qinxin and them into the palace?"
Gale Feng shook his head and said, "If Miss Hui is there, Prince Changfeng has not entered the palace. However, Changfeng Gongzi went out early in the morning and has not yet returned. ā
Lin Wan nodded and said, "I know, you can go out." Write down the punishment for the time being, and then be punished when you are free, so as not to miss the important matter at hand. ā
"Yes, Miss, my subordinates obey!" Gale Feng saluted Lin Wan respectfully before turning around and leaving the room.
Lin Wan took a deep breath, stood up, and walked towards the courtyard. The Autumn Garden, which has been very lively these days, suddenly returned to quiet. Lin Wan likes to be lively, but occasionally quiets down, and feels very comfortable.
Sitting under the long-withered osmanthus tree, Lin Wan drank the osmanthus tea brewed by Bing'er herself, and suddenly felt that time was like flowing water, and in a blink of an eye, it had been more than half a year since she came to this world. There were so many things that she didn't have time to think about it, she didn't have time to digest it. Always pushed forward by fate, dare not stop, dare not slack off.
The sound of the wind in her ears was changing, and Lin Wan turned her head vigilantly, only to see Changfeng and a tall exotic woman suddenly landing a few steps behind her.
The woman had thick eyebrows and big eyes, a high nose, fair skin, a pointed chin, and thin lips. The woman's black eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and she looked at Lin Wan carefully, her eyes were full of untamedness, and what she showed was stubbornness.
Lin Wan smiled at the woman and asked softly, "Are you Kapok? I'm Lin Wan, I'm glad to meet you!"
Kapok Zi was stunned, he didn't expect Lin Wan to be so kind and so easy to speak. Turning his head and glancing at Changfeng, his eyes were full of doubts, as if to say, is this the person you want to show me?
Changfeng smiled and nodded, gave Kapok a positive answer, and smiled without saying a word.
Kapok Zi turned his head to look at Lin Wan again, nodded a little hesitantly, and said, "I'm Kapok, are you the only person who can help me as Brother Changfeng said?"
Lin Wan was stunned, glanced at Changfeng, nodded quietly, and said, "Yes, the prince and concubine of your Northern Chen Kingdom are my cousin, and Big Brother Bei is not only my good friend, but also my cousin-in-law." And they live here now, and I'm the master here. After a pause, he continued: "Also, your elder brother Changfeng is also my eldest brother. Do you think I can help you?"
Kapok Zi looked at Lin Wan's eyes full of joy, nodded, and said, "I also know that you are the Wanxin County Lord of the Great Feng Kingdom, the Wanxin Princess of the Dongli Kingdom, and the future Young General's wife, that is, the mistress of the Shadowless Pavilion." Brother Changfeng is right, it seems that you are really the only one who can help me, then, are you willing to help me?"
Lin Wan smiled faintly and said word by word: "But, why should I help you?"
Kapok Zi was stunned, frowned slightly, bit his lip and thought about it, and said unhappily: "Then how can you be willing to help me? What conditions do you have?"
Lin Wanwan smiled and said secretly, this is indeed a smart and straightforward girl. After thinking about it, he asked instead of answering, "Are you a member of the Shadowless Pavilion?"
Kapok nodded without hesitation and said, "Of course, my father has said a long time ago that I have been destined to be a member of the Shadowless Pavilion since I was born. I have to practice martial arts diligently and perform well in order to inherit his position as the hall master. ā
Lin Wan smiled and nodded, and said, "Okay, in that case, it should be your job to let you be my personal maid and be responsible for protecting my safety, right?"
Kapok Zi frowned thickly, his expression was a little displeased, but he had to nod and admit it, and muttered: "Yes, who called you the future lady of the young general? Even Brother Changfeng wants to listen to you, can I not listen?"
Lin Wan hooked her lips and smiled, and said, "Okay, since you have no objections, then it's decided." From now on, you are my personal lady-in-waiting, and you must do everything according to my commands. After a month, if you are satisfied with your performance, I will help you. ā
"Really?" Kapok Zi was full of joy and blurted out, "Are you really willing to help me?" Can you convince Brother Anan and the princess to accept me?"
Lin Wan frowned and thought about it, nodded, and said, "I can." However, I think you have been wronged too much by being Big Brother Bei's concubine, maybe you have a better choice. ā
Kapok Zi obviously misunderstood what Lin Wan meant, his eyes lit up, and he blurted out, "Can you still make me a princess?"
Lin Wan shook her head helplessly, and said with a smile: "Okay, this is a matter for the future, let's talk about it later, you first follow Bing'er to learn how to be a personal maid." As a maid, you can't talk to me like this, and you can't think so much!"
Kapok's eyes widened in anger, but he opened his mouth and never spoke. Nowadays, if you have to ask for others, you will naturally suffer from some idleness. She took a deep breath, swallowed back the words that came to her lips, nodded, and looked at the woman in white beside Lin Wan.
Bing'er raised her head, smiled at Kapok, and said kindly, "Girl Mu, please come with me." ā
Kapok Zi looked at Bing'er who was smiling lightly, and couldn't help but be stunned, and muttered, "You are so beautiful......"
Bing'er shook her head slightly, signaled her not to speak, took her hand, and slowly walked towards the pantry.
