Chapter 40 Return
In his previous life, Lin Yingxue knew that Wang Yu's identity was entirely due to chance. Moreover, the man with a miserable life experience in front of him was not very good in the end. However, after living for a lifetime, the two people who had no intersection suddenly cooperated. Lin Yingxue didn't know that the fate of the person in front of him would not change because of this.
"What's the matter for me?" Just as he was thinking, the man in front of him suddenly spoke and asked coldly.
When Lin Yingxue heard the sound, she quickly cleaned up the fluctuations in her heart and said slowly: "The Song family is about to collapse. I plan to go back to the imperial city. Do you want to be with me?"
She is now isolated and helpless, and when she returns to the Lin family, she will definitely encounter more dangers. Although Wangyu's situation is not much better than her, no matter what, Wangyu still has a group of subordinates under him, and this is also the only group of forces she can rely on so far. Although she may not be able to get Wangyu, no matter what, she will always feel more at ease when holding more cards in her hands.
Wangyu didn't answer for a moment, and the clearly extinct candlelight was jumping on his face, which made the man in front of him look deeper and more unpredictable.
Lin Yingxue knew that this was a difficult choice for the person in front of her, so she did not urge her, but just waited quietly.
After a long time, Wangyu's voice rang again: "Why?"
Why should he go back with her? Lin Yingxue smiled gently, but her still tender face was floating on her calmness that she shouldn't have at her age.
"Because the imperial city is the center of power, because Young Master Wangyu and the people I want to deal with are there." Lin Yingxue's voice was not high, but she had a different kind of firm power. "And Young Master Wangyu stayed in such a small place to avoid it. When will there be a day to take revenge? Although the imperial city is full of dangers, it is also the place with the most opportunities. If Young Master Wangyu dares not take risks in order to save his life, then just pretend that Yingxue didn't say anything today."
After Lin Yingxue finished speaking, she didn't wait for Wangyu to answer again, so she turned around and walked out of the house.
Wangyu did not say anything to keep him, but he stared at the place where Lin Yingxue left for a long time, and a slight struggle on his face flashed.
The Lin family has not been peaceful recently. Lin Yingxue thought about it. She originally wanted to go to the inn where Dier was staying, but the fire in the city was too eye-catching, which made her unable to ignore it. So she involuntarily changed direction. While walking towards the direction of the fire, she pulled a passerby who seemed to be rushing to watch the fun and asked, "Is the place where the fire caught the Song family?"
"That's right! I don't know who did it. The fire has been burning for more than an hour. I heard people passing by say that there are killers inside, so no one dares to go over. At this moment, the killers have probably left. Only then can the people in the city dare to go forward to put out the fire!" Passersby were busy watching the fun. After saying this, they stopped paying attention to Lin Yingxue and continued to run away quickly.
Lin Yingxue looked in the direction of the fire from afar, and couldn't help but think of what Ouyang Feng said that day: With the style of the Song family, if it were not for the protection of the government, it would have fallen long ago.
Now, because the Song family is about to end, those who have been offended by the Song family are coming to seek revenge?
In the end, I'm afraid only the Song family themselves knew it. Lin Yingxue thought about it while she was still there, but suddenly she no longer had the intention to watch the fun. Instead, she turned around and walked quickly towards the inn.
"Miss, I heard that the fire last night had spread for most of the streets, but it seemed that only the Song family was the worst. Not to mention that the entire Song family was burned out, and there were corpses inside! I heard that no one survived..." Lin Yingxue had never been a person who was dragging on the way back to the imperial city the next day, and Di'er seemed to be immersed in the shock of being washed by the Song family overnight, so she sighed along the way.
"It's all retribution." After Di'er finished speaking, Lin Yingxue said these words in a plain tone. After all, her power is still very weak now. The reason why the Song family suffered such a big change was more due to the accumulation of the past.
As the saying goes, what causes and what results are obtained, Lin Yingxue can't feel any sympathy in her heart for such a big tragedy.
The Song family is actually not too far from the imperial city. As the master and servant rushed forward in a hurry, they only took less than five days to arrive at the imperial city.
As soon as he entered the imperial city, Lin Yingxue headed straight for the Lin family.
Lin Mansion. Looking at the plaque above her head, Lin Yingxue felt that the two words were far away and unfamiliar to her. Since her ten-year-old mother passed away, she was sent to the Song family. She was almost unwilling to think about the torture she suffered in those two years. Fortunately, she lived for a lifetime and the Song family suffered the retribution she deserved.
Now, her next target is the Lin family.
Seeing Lin Yingxue standing at the door motionless, the guard guards at the door couldn't help but expel him: "Where did you come from? This is the home of the Minister of Rites. You have to rest and find another place to stay!"
Perhaps because Lin Yingxue is not very old and dressed in ordinary clothes, the guards at the door are extremely unpolite when they speak.
Lin Yingxue glanced at the guard at the door lightly, not wanting to be fooled with such servants who have always bullied others.
Therefore, she just said coldly: "I am the fifth lady of the Lin family, Lin Yingxue, why don't I go in and report?"
The guard was startled by the sharp aura that suddenly emanated from Lin Yingxue. He thought about it carefully. It seemed that there was indeed a fifth lady who was not very favored in his memory. But wasn’t the fifth lady sent out two years ago? Why are he back now?
Although the guard was confused, due to Lin Yingxue's aura, he did not dare to ask more questions. He turned around and quickly stepped in to report.
Lin Yingxue's sudden return indeed caused a great uproar in Lin's mansion. The second wife Song, who had just been properly straightened, came out to check it out in surprise.
"You..." Before Lin Yingxue's biological mother passed away, she was the second master of the Lin family and Lin Zhengjie's favorite concubine. Later, the second wife of the Lin family and Lin Yingxue's mother died one after another. After the Song family successfully took office, she thought that she had only one daughter, so she tried her best to convince the second master of the Lin family to send away the daughter of his favorite concubine.
Originally, she had specially explained to her mother's family that when the time was right, she would find an opportunity to solve the problem with Lin Yingxue, so that Mr. Lin would not have a daughter competing for favor with her daughter, and even if her daughter got married, she would get more dowry.
But she would never have thought that a person who was already dead in her cognition would have been so unexpected and appeared in front of her openly.
"Why did Yingxue come back suddenly?" Song was a person who had been through the storm. After a moment of surprise, she quickly suppressed the surprise in her heart and asked with a loving look.
