Chapter 91
"In the future?" Jinse's eyes flashed with confusion, and he murmured, "Didn't you already make arrangements for me? You all know that I have no way out, so you just joined forces to push me to a dead end."

Lu Li's eyes turned, he straightened up suddenly, rubbed his slightly stiff face, and said slowly, "Sometimes, it's actually a very simple thing to get rid of."

After finishing speaking, he suddenly raised his hand and threw something, which landed in front of Jinse with a bang.

It was a dagger inlaid with gemstones of seven colors, so gorgeous and precious that people couldn't take their eyes off it.

Jinse raised her eyelids, only took a look, then closed her eyes again, and quietly turned her face to the other side.

After a long time, she heard her say in a low voice: "A few years ago, my father also left me suddenly. At that time, I was completely hopeless. I really wanted to die, but now when I think about it, I only feel it is ridiculous, and I am glad that I didn't Do something stupid."

Lu Li raised his eyebrows and waited for her to continue.

"My life is not valuable at all, and there is no regret in dying, but my father used his own life to save me. I almost failed him at that time. I was so stupid. So, until now, no matter what No matter what happens, I will let myself live. Only if I live well, my father's sacrifice will not be in vain."

Therefore, no matter whether it was the loss of everything since Su Li's wedding, or the extreme pain of being pushed into the fire pit by her grandfather, or even being taken over by Su Mo, she never thought about the word "death" again.

You have to live well to be worthy of the hardships you have suffered.Even blood and tears are better than a pile of loess.

After Jinse finished speaking, she closed her eyes again, and there was no more sound.

After a long silence, Lu Li's voice came slowly: "It is said that life is like a dream, maybe one day you wake up and realize that all the pain is just a nightmare."

Jinse didn't know if she heard it or not, but kept her eyes closed, as if she had fallen asleep.

She didn't even notice that Su Mo had appeared here, and she didn't even know that there were two other people standing at the door of the tavern for a long while, listening to everything she said.

Su Ran looked at Ling Luo who seemed to have lost her soul, and reached out to support her shoulders.

Unexpectedly, Ling Luo slammed him away, turned around and strode away from the tavern.

On the crowded street, Ling Luo strode fast, without caring about the fetus in her house.

Su Ran managed to catch her in the crowd. Seeing her cold face and gloomy eyes, she couldn't help laughing: "Why do you look like you want to kill someone?"

Ling Luo looked at him coldly, and suddenly said: "Aren't you willing to tell me the real cause of Jin Yan's death anyway?"

Su Ran was still smiling, and stretched out her hand to tidy up the broken hair at Ling Luo's sideburns, and said, "For no reason, why are you talking about these old things?"

Ling Luo gritted her teeth and looked at him. After a while, she couldn't help sneering, and continued to stride forward.

This time, Su Ran did not continue to follow her. He watched her leave at the same place, and after standing quietly for a while, he started again, but only walked aimlessly.

Ling Luo almost rushed back to the inn, raised her skirt and climbed up to the second floor, then pushed open Su Mo's door without any politeness.

In the spacious and bright room, Su Mo sat under the north window with his back to the door, his head bowed, as if he was meditating, but he remained motionless when he heard the sound.

Ling Luo hurriedly walked around in front of him, only to realize that he was looking down at a golden hairpin in his hand, it looked so ordinary, but he was fascinated by it.

"Are you satisfied?" Ling Luo asked with a trembling voice, "I finally saw and heard with my own eyes what kind of desperate situation you drove her to. Can you continue to remain indifferent?"

Su Mo lightly put the golden hairpin back into his sleeve, then raised his head to look at Ling Luo, his eyes were deep and dark, almost unprecedented.

His appearance made Lingluo hate him even more: "How bad is Jinyan's death that you all keep it so secretive? Is it true that in your eyes, a dead person is more important than a living Song Jinse? "

Su Mo stood up abruptly: "Miss Ling Luo can just take care of her own affairs, and don't need to worry about the rest."

Lingluo was furious for a moment: "That person is Jinse! If you really feel sorry for her, then tell her that Jinyan was not killed by you! You tell her that she doesn't have to hate you like this, and she doesn't have to suffer like that! Do you have to Are you satisfied watching her suffer to death? Is this your pity, Su Mo?"

Su Mo still stood facing the window, his expression condensed: "Why does Miss Lingluo think that Jin Yan was not killed by me?"

Ling Luo took a deep breath and said, "I don't know what happened between you and Jin Yan, and I don't know what kind of person you, Su Mo, are, but if you really killed Jin Yan , you will not tolerate Jinse in every possible way, and you will not have the slightest affection for her! What's more-"

What's more, Su Ran and Song Heng, these two people, either explicitly or secretly, have an inexplicable connection with Jin Yan. Jin Yan's death will not be such a simple matter.

However, Ling Luo couldn't say this sentence no matter what. Even though she knew it well, she had made troubles with Su Ran many times because of this, but she still didn't dare to say it herself——Su Ran and Jin Yan had a relationship associated.

However, Su Mo calmly took over the topic: "What's more, the emperor's brother and Zhongli's prince Murong Qilian are both likely to be involved in Jin Yan's death, aren't they?"

Ling Luo's face turned pale sharply, and she looked at Su Mo with shortness of breath.

"Then Miss Lingluo thinks that Jinse won't be able to detect what you've noticed?" Su Mo's voice was extremely inconspicuously hoarse, as if soaked in ink.

Lingluo's heart trembled suddenly, and she understood almost immediately: "You mean—"

The corner of Su Mo's mouth twitched into a faint smile, as if mocking himself: "Her biggest knot is Jin Yan's death, but knowing that Jin Yan's death is strange, she just avoids it blindly and even pursues it. There is no action for the truth. Therefore, the truth of Jin Yan's death will only be more painful to her than Jin Yan being killed by me."

Ling Luo took a step back suddenly, and couldn't help but fell down on the chair that Su Mo was sitting on earlier.

A heart seems to be placed in an ice cellar, and every beat is extremely difficult and long.After a long time, Ling Luo finally spoke softly again: "It's really related to Su Ran, isn't it?"

The smile on Su Mo's face became thinner: "At the end of the day, this is what Miss Lingluo cares about the most. Whether it has something to do with him, Miss Lingluo can go back and ask him, I can't answer you."

For a moment, Ling Luo only felt regret and pain, and her heart was in a mess: "Yes, I really care about him the most. Is there any woman in the world who cares most about her husband? But I also care about Jinse! She is like this, but you force her to stay by your side. It will not be good for her! If you let Jinse stay, I will always be with her. Even if there is something wrong with her body, you can still send someone to treat her , isn't it best?"

As soon as she finished speaking, there were suddenly two knocks on the open door behind her, and Haitang's voice sounded a little anxious: "My lord!"

Su Mo turned his head, and Haitang stepped into the door in a hurry and said, "Someone is here from Beijing, and they are waiting in the backyard."

Su Mo frowned, and glanced at Ling Luo, who bowed her head and hugged her head in pain, and told Haitang, "Look at her."

After finishing speaking, he left the room and hurried downstairs.

Before he left Beijing, he had arranged all the government affairs properly, and if it wasn't a major event, Beijing Central would not send people here.

He had a vague premonition in his heart, and when he came to the back court, he saw Chu Xing who had always been with him and another guard waiting anxiously. When he saw him, he hurriedly saluted and handed over a memorial: "Your Majesty , Weinan hastened to play."

Hearing the word "Weinan", Su Mo's heart tightened slightly.

Opening the memorial, it turned out to be a disaster report!In recent years, the two provinces of Luojiang and Tai on both sides of the Weishui River have suffered from floods for three consecutive years. Although the imperial court has sent commissioners to control the floods, the Weishui River has been flooded again during the flood season!The people in the two provinces were displaced and suffered unspeakably. Right now, the people's grievances are boiling, and the complaints are rife. It is by no means a natural disaster.

After closing the booklet, Su Mo said in a deep voice: "I will draw up a list, and you two will return to Beijing to report quickly, and the officials on the list will go to Weinan for disaster relief immediately, and I will go there first."

"Yes."

Su Mofu turned and went upstairs again, and returned to the room. Lingluo still held her head in her hands and said nothing, but Haitang came forward to meet him. Seeing that he wanted to write, she prepared to grind for him.

"Haitang, pack two sets of luggage with me quickly, I'm going to leave overnight." Before Haitang approached, Su Mo had already ground it by himself, and told her.

Haitang was startled, before she could speak, Lingluo's nervous voice came first: "Where are you going? Are you taking Jinse away?"

Su Mo didn't have time to take care of her, he just glanced at Haitang who was slightly startled, then lowered his head and began to write.Only now did Haitang come to her senses, and hastily turned around to organize his luggage for him.

After everything was sorted out, the list was brought back by Chu Xing and the two, and Haitang took out another set of travel clothes: "Haitang serves the prince to change clothes."

At this time, Ling Luo was still in the room, looking at Su Mo for a moment, as if still waiting for his answer.

Su Mo finally said: "I won't take Jinse away on this trip for the time being, Haitang, you also stay here. I will come back to pick up Jinse when the disaster in Weinan is resolved."

"You know how painful she is, why do you still insist on taking her away?" Ling Luo almost roared.

"I have my own discretion about Jinse, so I don't need Miss Lingluo to worry about it." Su Mo said with cold eyes, "If Miss Lingluo is really for her own good, then please take good care of Jinse during this period. "

When Haitang carried the bag and sent Su Mo out of the inn, she was still worried: "My lord, let Haitang accompany you on the journey. If Miss Song needs someone to take care of you, you can ask your brother to stay a little longer to take care of Miss Jinse. It’s not that hard to think about.”

Su Mo frowned, and suddenly thought of something: "No, you stay, your senior brother can go with me. Now that the disaster has just passed, and the weather is so hot, I'm afraid there will be an epidemic. Go find your senior brother , I'll go find Lu Li, and we'll meet up at Lu Li's Tavern."

Only then did Haitang nodded: "Yes. I'll go find my brother right away, and my lord will take care of me all the way."

Su Mo looked at her, paused, and then said, "You know why I keep you. Take good care of her."

Haitang smiled and said: "Understood, Haitang has always been aware of the prince's thoughts. He will definitely live up to the prince's trust."

It was almost evening, but Lu Li's tavern was quiet and there was no sound of people.Originally, he opened this tavern for other reasons, but now that his goal has been achieved, he will no longer open it to the public.

Su Mo got off his horse, pushed open the door and entered.

The light in the lobby was dim, and there was no one to be seen. Su Mo walked through the empty hall, and just about to enter the backyard, his footsteps stopped suddenly.

Turning around and scanning the lobby again, there was still no one in sight, but Su Mo turned back again, took the fire book and lit the candle, and then walked slowly to the place where Jinse sat in the afternoon.

The pear wood bench she had been lying on was still intact, but there was a person lying on it in the narrow and short space under the bench.

Su Mo suddenly opened the long table, but it was Jinse, lying there quietly curled up.

The sound of Chang Ji's overturning seemed to startle her, and her originally peaceful eyebrows were furrowed, and she didn't let go for a long time.

After a while, she still didn't open her eyes, but her frown was finally relaxed again, as if she had fallen into a peaceful sleep again.

Su Mo stared at her sleeping face for a long time, and finally couldn't help stretching out his hand, letting his palm fit her face.

Probably because of drinking, her cheeks were slightly hot. He had just rode all the way here, and his palms were slightly cold, pressing against her face, and suddenly there was a sense of familiarity as if it had been a lifetime away.

Under his palm, the person who hadn't even been awakened by falling over for a long time suddenly opened his eyes without warning.

Looking at each other, her eyes seemed to be condensed with water, which was reflected by the flickering candlelight, and the stars were dotted with waves.

Su Mo suddenly remembered that sense of familiarity as if it had been a lifetime ago.

Looking at the person in front of her, Jinse's heart went blank, but time and space seemed to have experienced a shift in an instant, and time quickly went back, back to that snowy winter 15 years ago.

She was only seven years old that year, and her sister's marriage had not yet been settled, and she was still in her boudoir.

It may be because of her mother's early death, her sister who is also a mother always controls her very tightly, and her father is strict, before waking up, Jinse is always trembling and cautious, and she looks like a bully.It is precisely because of this that Beitanglin's greatest interest when he was young was to bully Jinse time and time again.

It snowed heavily that winter. In Jinse's first memory, the heavy snow seemed to last the whole winter without stopping for a moment.

The three sons of Beitang will always appear in the Song Mansion at the right time, and then pretend to be obedient and innocent in front of their sister, and bring Jinse out from her sister. Only himself, Jinse is always the one being bullied.

However, she was far from having the courage to tell her sister about being bullied at that time, let alone reject Beitanglin's invitation in front of her sister, and under her sister's education of "being cautious in words and deeds", she said something inappropriate, or If you do something inappropriate, you will be punished for copying books.For Jinse at that time, being punished for copying books was far more painful than being bullied by Beitanglin.

On this day, Beitang Lin led Jinse out of Jinyan again, and immediately revealed his true colors, and said to Jinse with his teeth and claws: "Come, come, third brother will teach you how to catch birds today."

Jinse didn't like to learn how to catch birds at all. She knew in her heart that this was another trick Beitanglin used to play tricks on her, but she still didn't dare to say no.

Sure enough, the final result of bird catching was that she was completely covered by a big dustpan, and she was caught on the snow like a caught bird.

It was really cold in the snow, Jinse lay silently under the dustpan, listened to Beitang Lin laughing outside for a long time, and then heard the sound of him walking away, then lifted the dustpan, stood up, and patted Patting the snow on his body, he was going to go back quietly and change into clean clothes, so as not to be discovered by his sister and punished.
