Poor family farming: the sick and weak scholar's wife is very sturdy

It has been two months since Lin Xiao followed Yu Xilin's special envoy team back to the capital.

At this time, it is the beginning of spring in April, the sun is shining brightly, everything is reviving, the trees are shaded, and the area is full of vitality.

Looking at the beautiful scenery in front of him, Lin Xiao felt uncomfortable.

She always felt like her heart was congested, as if something was suppressing her, making it difficult to breathe.

This feeling made her
I feel very depressed, but I can't find the reason.

Lin Xiao could only comfort herself secretly: "It's okay, you will be fine in a few days..."

Lin Xiao was thinking as he walked quickly towards the Ai Lv Shi clothing store opened by Zhang Yue.

She wanted to meet Zhang Yue as soon as possible. Even if they didn't say anything, she felt at ease.

Unknowingly, she had already regarded Zhang Yue as a relative.

However.
Today's Ai Lv Shi has long lost its original prosperity and liveliness.

The store door was closed, and it was empty and silent.

This shocked Lin Xiao.

"what happened?"

Lin Xiao hurriedly stepped forward and pushed open the wooden door.

Inside the door, the furnishings were still there, but it seemed unusually deserted, without the hustle and bustle of the past.

"Sister Xiaoyue! Sister Xiaoyue! Are you there?"

Lin Xiao shouted several times, but unfortunately there was still no response.

Lin Xiao suddenly became restless.

This situation was definitely not what she wanted to see.

She took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.

Then, she quickly ran towards the second floor.

"Sister Xiaoyue, sister Xiaoyue, are you there? Sister Xiaoyue!"

Lin Xiao kept calling, trying to find some answers.

Unfortunately, the second floor was just like the first floor, quiet, with no other sound except the echo.

Lin Xiao frowned, and his expression became increasingly gloomy.

At this time, a muffled sound caused by a stone hitting the wooden window came from the backyard on the first floor, which immediately attracted Lin Xiao's attention.

She quickly rushed to the backyard, and sure enough she saw her former lover, Xiao Cai, standing in the yard covered in mud.

When he saw Lin Xiao, his eyes suddenly turned red, and he fell to the ground and cried loudly.

"Xiao Cai, what's wrong with you?"

Lin Xiao was startled and quickly helped Xiao Cai up.

"The boss's wife is dead!! Wuwuwu the boss's wife is dead."

Xiao Cai burst into tears.

Lin Xiao was shocked when he heard this.

Zhang Yue, Zhang Yue, how could she die? !
Her mind seemed to be hit by something, and she was confused, but in a trance she always felt that something was struggling.

Zhang Yue’s daughter, Xiao Zhouzhou!
"Where's Zhouzhou? Where did little Zhouzhou go?"

Lin Xiao grabbed Xiao Cai's shoulders and asked urgently.

"I, I don't know either. When I took the little lady to visit the landlady in Tianlao, I fainted for no reason. When I woke up, everyone was gone, including the little lady. I'm sorry for the landlady. Wow. ." Xiao Cai cried.

Lin Xiao was stunned.

Xiao Zhouzhou is missing! !
How could this be? !

!

Where could such a young child go?
An ominous omen suddenly emerged in my mind.

Lin Xiao's face was as white as paper, and his body was trembling slightly.

At this time, Xiao Cai continued to say: "The boss lady wrote a letter before she died. She wanted to ask me to give the letter to you, but it was snatched away by people from Dali Temple. Also, the boss lady She said she owed you too much, she felt guilty, and she was not worthy of being your sister."

Speaking of this, Xiao Cai choked up.

Lin Xiao was stunned.

A trace of sadness rose from Lin Xiao's chest and gradually filled her body, making her unable to hold back tears.

At this moment, she suddenly had a feeling of empathy.

That heartbreaking feeling. It’s really painful!
Night falls.

Lin Xiao staggered back to the inn like a zombie.

Yu Xilin had already been waiting eagerly at the door of the inn.Seeing the distraught Lin Xiao, he hurried forward to greet him.

"Axiao!"

Yu Xilin called.

Lin Xiao didn't seem to notice, and walked straight through Yu Xilin, came to the room and sat down.

Her eyes were dull, her expression was sluggish, the corners of her mouth were slightly opened, and she was mumbling to herself.

"Sister Xiaoyue, Xiaozhouzhou. She is so small, where can she go?"

Yu Xilin frowned, then came to Lin Xiao's side, squatted down, reached out to hold her cold palm, and comforted her softly: "A Xiao, what happened?"

Lin Xiao raised her eyes and looked at Yu Xilin. Her eyes were confused, as dull as if she had lost her mind. After a long while, she sighed quietly: "Sister Xiaoyue is dead, and Xiao Zhouzhou is also gone."

"what?!"

Yu Xilin was quite shocked by this news!

His expression became solemn, and after a moment of silence, he slowly said, "Axiao, what is going on?"

When Lin Xiao heard this, her expression became even more miserable. She lay back on the back of the chair, supporting her chin with her arms, and was lost in thought.

Her thoughts were in chaos, overlapping and flickering.

After a long time, she just started to describe what happened in Lovers this afternoon.

After listening to Lin Xiao's words, Yu Xilin fell into silence.

After a moment, he exhaled softly and then said:
"You don't have to worry about Xiao Zhouzhou. I will send people to search for it right now. Even if they dig three feet into the ground, they will definitely help you find Xiao Zhouzhou. As for Zhang Yue's suicide note?"

He paused briefly and said thoughtfully: "Dali Temple is a royal government office with strict deployment. It may not be that simple to find a suicide note inside."

Yu Xilin's words were not wrong.

Dali Temple is where the royal family has their offices.

It is surrounded by various institutional restrictions, and a slightest carelessness will trigger a killing move.

Let alone an ordinary person in a place like this, even if a martial arts master breaks into it, the outcome will be disastrous.

Lin Xiao knew this.

She shook her head and whispered: "I'll leave it to you to deal with Xiao Zhouzhou. I have my own way to deal with the suicide note."

Late that night, Lin Xiao quietly sneaked into the Ninth Prince's mansion.

The mansion of the Ninth Prince originally belonged to the Seventh Prince Li Yuxuan.

After Li Yuxuan died and Li Yujiang became emperor, this mansion was given to the Ninth Prince Li Yuyan.

Li Yuyan had no complaints about this, but was extremely grateful to Li Yujun.

the reason is simple.

The exterior level of this house is no less luxurious than that of a palace, but inside it is full of secret rooms and numerous institutions.

This can be used to do many things, such as cultivating a group of dead soldiers, secret guards, or other things.

As long as the emperor Li Yujun does not indulge in excesses and kill loyal ministers indiscriminately, Li Yuyan will do his best to assist him.

Lin Xiao, who had been to this mansion before, was familiar with the road and arrived at the center of the courtyard outside Li Yuyan's dormitory almost as soon as he entered the house.

At this time, the courtyard was brightly lit, and two guards stood guard in the courtyard. They held halberds and looked majestic.

At this time, in front of them, Li Yuyan was sitting upright with his legs crossed, as if he was deep in thought.

Seeing that the person coming was Lin Xiao, Li Yuyan's eyes lit up and he quickly stood up with a bright smile. He walked over warmly and took Lin Xiao's wrist:
"Axiao, you really gave me a big surprise!"

"Oh, you gave me a big surprise too!"

Lin Xiao took out his hand, glanced at the two guards guarding Li Yuyan, snorted coldly, and said sarcastically.

"You are presumptuous!"

The guard shouted sharply, swung his halberd and slashed at Lin Xiao, obviously wanting to teach Lin Xiao a lesson for his master.

"Get out!"

Li Yuyan glared at the two guards and shouted angrily.

The two men did not dare to neglect, bowed and took back their weapons.

"Why, does the Ninth Prince's guard still want to kill me? That's right, I'm just a commoner with no power to restrain a chicken. If the Ninth Prince wants to kill me, isn't it the same as crushing an ant?"

Lin Xiao said with a sarcastic smile.

Li Yuyan touched his nose and smiled: "You misunderstood."

He paused, then took the initiative to hold Lin Xiao's hand, "You come with me."

After saying that, he led Lin Xiao out of the courtyard and towards the study.

After the two came to the study, Li Yuyan closed the door tightly, then turned around, stared at Lin Xiao, and said in a deep voice: "When did you get involved with the traitor Yu Xilin?"
