Chapter 258 Repaying kindness with hatred
Chapter 258 Repaying kindness with hatred
In order to ensure that Kou Zhun could reach Shu safely, Luo Li, who came to see Kou Zhun off with his servant, not only brought him a large bag of delicious snacks, one thousand taels of silver as travel expenses, one thousand taels of gold as funds for activities, but also sent two shadow guards to serve as bodyguards for the master and servant.
Kou Zhun was afraid that he would be too conspicuous, so he did not let Cao Wei and Gao Yingxiong come to see him off, but Luo Laoer came anyway.
Luo Wenhao changed his playful and frivolous demeanor today, and bowed to Kou Zhun with a solemn expression, "Brother Kou, please!"
Kou Zhun clasped his fists and bowed to Luo Li and Luo Wenhao, "Princess, second brother, don't worry! Kou Zhun will definitely meet his mentor and find ways to rescue him from prison and bring him back to Beijing."
Kou Zhun and his servant Kou An, along with two top-level bodyguards, rode on four fine horses carefully selected from the Big Foot Women's Army camp and galloped to Western Shu. …………
Lin Xian'er knelt in front of the porcelain plate where the "evil ghost" was placed. She endured the nausea and fear, and chanted scriptures, begging the "evil ghost" to be liberated quickly and not to bother her, an innocent and weak woman, anymore.
After seven whole days, the task of liberating the dead souls was finally completed. After the maid Xiangcao took the porcelain plate and the evil ghost out of the house, Lin Xian'er breathed a sigh of relief, and the fear and nausea gradually disappeared.
When Lin Xianer's hand touched the scar on her lower abdomen, she pulled her hand back suddenly as if she had touched a red-hot iron. The resentment, anger, and hatred in her heart surged up!
This was all caused by the silly princess, who left such an ugly scar on her smooth, delicate, and flawless belly. When Lin Xian'er thought about how Brother Defang would withdraw his hand in disgust when he touched her in the future, she felt extremely sad and angry!
Silly princess! You have left such an ugly scar on my flawless body. When I become a concubine in the future, I will be despised by my brother Defang. For this grudge, I, Lin Xian'er, will never forgive you!
At this moment, Lin Xian'er, since the moment she saw the scar on her abdomen after removing the bandage, her gratitude towards the silly princess for saving her life turned into resentment. Every time she touched the scar, the resentment and hatred in her heart increased.
The maid Xiangcao carefully applied the scar removal ointment that Madam Lin had bought at a high price to Lin Xian'er's scar, and comforted her, "Miss, Madam said that this scar removal ointment bought from Divine Doctor Qin is very effective. After using it for a month, the scar will become lighter and lighter in color."
"Pa!..." Lin Xian'er slapped Xiangcao hard on the face. Her beautiful face was twisted and hideous, and her eyes were filled with deep hatred. "If you dare to mention the word scar again, I will scratch your face and pop out your eyes!"
Vanilla covered her burning cheek, trying hard to hold back the tears that were about to fall, and replied in a low voice: "Yes! Vanilla remembers, Miss, please don't be angry."
"Get out of here right after applying the ointment!" Lin Xian'er cursed coldly.
Vanilla bit her lower lip, holding back tears of grievance, and carefully applied the ointment on the scar, wrapped it with gauze, covered it with a quilt, knelt down, took a few steps back, turned around and rolled out.
As soon as Vanilla walked out of the door, she couldn't stop her tears from falling. She almost bumped into someone while walking in the corridor. "Sister Chunmei, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it." Startled, Vanilla quickly apologized.
Chunmei looked at the slap marks on Xiangcao's face and the tears in her eyes, and said gloatingly: "Xiangcao, serving the young lady is a good job. In the past, didn't you and Qiuju hide from the lady and serve the young lady? Why, did the young lady give you another slap?"
The grievances and resentments in Xiangcao's heart had accumulated too much in the past few days. After Chunmei's gloating ridicule, she turned into angry courage and retorted: "Miss, you are in a bad mood and you can slap me a few times. Sister Chunmei, do you still feel the pain from the more than 20 canes that Cui'er ordered by Princess Qin whipped you with?"
"You... you little slut, how dare you talk back?" Chunmei, who was used to bullying others due to Mrs. Lin's favor, raised her hand and slapped Xiangcao hard on the face. "If you dare to talk back again, I will beat your mouth to pieces!"
Xiangcao covered her burning face and did not dare to fight back, but she was too stubborn to admit her mistake. She walked past Chunmei and ran to the lower room.
Chunmei cursed at her back with hatred, "Bah...", and then went to serve Mrs. Lin with a proud attitude.
After sending the maids away, Lin Xian'er lay on the bed, tears silently flowing and dripping onto the pillow. Deep resentment rolled in her heart. She bit her lower lip with silver teeth and squeezed out a few words, "Silly Princess, I will make sure you die without a burial place!"
Lin Xian'er, whose heart was filled with hatred, used her clever brain to figure out how to frame and kill the stupid princess.
The Silly Princess was of noble status, and with the support of the King of Qin, ordinary wealthy and powerful people dared not provoke her. She was protected by shadow guards, and even though so many masters from the Divine Sword Villa came to attack and assassinate her at night, they were unable to hurt the Silly Princess and the young prince Zhao Wuji.
Yes! Zhao Wuji! Zhao Wuji is the orphan of the King of Wei. The King of Wei was frightened to death by a word from the current emperor. Who would have thought of using the power of so many masters in the Divine Sword Villa to assassinate Zhao Wuji? Of course, it was to cut the grass and eliminate the hidden dangers.
Lin Xian'er sat up. After the congenital disease of Zhao Wuji, the orphan of the King of Wei, who the emperor hated, was cured, he was attacked by an assassin. And the person who cured Zhao Wuji's congenital disease was the silly princess. If the emperor knew about this... ?
But how can this news be sent to the palace and reach the emperor's ears?
On the second day, despite her mother's objections, Lin Xian'er took her maids Qiu He and Xiang Cao and got on a carriage to go shopping in the East Market of the city.
Lin Xian'er, who was elegant and detached like a fairy, strolled through the bustling East Market with a purpose. She turned a blind eye to the respectful, astonishing, loving, or lustful looks of the common people, and the expensive and exotic goods in the shops did not arouse her interest.
Vanilla silently followed Lin Xian'er who was wandering aimlessly, not daring to say a word, for fear of angering her master and getting beaten and scolded.
Qiu He cautiously reminded her, "Miss, you must be tired after walking around for so long. How about going to the teahouse in front and having a cup of tea to rest your feet?"
After being reminded by the maid, Lin Xian'er, who was weak after the operation, immediately felt tired. She opened her red lips and said, "Yes, I am a little tired. Let's go to the teahouse and sit for a while!"
In the early spring season, the warm sunshine sprinkled on the quaint door plaque of the teahouse. Lin Xianer, dressed in a light blue embroidered Shu brocade, walked into the door with graceful steps and elegant manners under the reflection of the warm sunshine, and immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the lobby of the teahouse.
When such a fairy-like beauty came to the teahouse, the shopkeeper came over in person and greeted her warmly with a smile: "Miss, are you here for tea? There are still private rooms upstairs. Would you like one?"
Lin Xian'er's eyes lit up when she saw a stunningly beautiful woman walking down the stairs!
Without bothering to talk to the teahouse owner, she shouted, "Miss Zhao, you come to the teahouse to drink tea too?" Lin Xian'er greeted with a smile and walked quickly towards the beauty.
Zhao Zhiya was stunned!
"Lin Xian'er?..."
