On the wedding day, my wife was abnormal

The palace was very large, almost the size of an ordinary university. Lin Zhen walked for half an hour from the main gate to the side courtyard where Haitang Duoduo lived.

The gate to the courtyard was open, with weeds growing out in front of it, making it look a bit shabby.

Lin Zhen's face was frighteningly gloomy, as if anyone he looked at would be seen through.

Cao Xiong, who was standing behind him, didn't even dare to breathe.

I thought, when did the prince feel so oppressive? It wasn't like this in the first few years.

Without even turning his head, Lin Zhen said to Cao Xiong, "Brothers, get ready. If anything happens, rush in and kill her immediately."

"Yes." Cao Xiong did not dare to be careless and nodded repeatedly.

Lin Zhen walked into the yard without saying hello, and saw Haitang Duoduo sitting at the stone table in the middle of the yard, wiping her bow and arrow with her back to him, her movements quiet and elegant.

Behind him was the bedroom, beside him was a pavilion, and under the pavilion a stream flowed. If it were not for the resentment in his heart, Lin Zhen would have thought that the painting was very beautiful at this moment.

Haitang knew he came in, but she didn't look back. She just stroked the bow and arrow lovingly, as if she was stroking the person she loved most.

"I did it." She seemed to know what Lin Zhen was going to ask, so she took the initiative to say it.

These four simple words made Lin Zhen furious.

He sat opposite her and said unhappily, "What's your relationship with Gu Beichen?"

"It doesn't matter."

call.

Lin Zhen secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as there is nothing wrong between the two of them, otherwise she will die today.

"Then why did you do that?!"

"You saved my life, so I will naturally save yours." Haitang's voice was very faint, as if it was without any emotion.

"You shot my blade with an arrow, and the person you saved was clearly Gu Beichen."

"Gu Beichen can't die now, and I can see that you are just acting on impulse and don't really want to kill him."

Lin Zhen guessed this would be the result, but he didn't expect that a killer like Haitang could have such a delicate mind.

He actually knew that Gu Beichen couldn't die now.

In the original book, wasn’t she a naive girl who fell in love with Gu Beichen because he saved her life?

The damn author lied to me again. There are not so many love-brained and naive people in this world!

Lin Zhen secretly complained a few words and looked at Haitang who still didn't look up.

If she hadn't come to my rescue today, I might have been in big trouble.

By then, all the plans will be reduced to ashes, and the only way left is rebellion.

However, he had no military power, and Lin Zhenxian was unlikely to rebel, so his life would be very difficult in the future.

Lin Zhen lowered his eyebrows and secretly glanced at Haitang's heroic face.

I wanted to say thank you, but the words just wouldn't come out when they came to my lips.

He is not a person who is good at expressing his emotions.

"I'm leaving." Haitang spoke while wiping the bow and arrow, as if everything had nothing to do with her.

Lin Zhen couldn't help but ask, "Where are you going?"

"We don't owe each other anything. It's none of your business where we go."

"I..."

What a heartless woman!

She is very similar to Lin Zhen’s previous female leaders.

But then again, the two of them were not related at all, it was just a chance encounter deliberately created by Lin Zhen, so it was inevitable that they would be separated.

And Lin Zhen had no reason to force her to stay by his side.

A woman who engages in assassination is not afraid of power, and a woman who is not vain will not be moved by money. Lin Zhen really doesn't know how to keep her.

He could only stare at the huge longbow and say, "Next time we meet, I'll give you a nice bow."

"No need." Haitang stood up, slinging the bow and arrows on her back, and said indifferently, "Withdraw the guards. Next time you want to kill me, don't save me."

I was wondering why she looked so asexual, and it turned out that she had known for a long time that I had the intention to kill.

He knew it but did not resist. Instead, he spoke gently and softly, and finally decided to leave.

He has the style of a hero.

Lin Zhen suddenly felt like he was judging others by his own standards.

He stared at Haitang's departing back and shouted, "Haitang, thank you!"

Haitang stopped for a moment, a beautiful smile appearing on the corner of her mouth.

His expression was no longer as cold as before, but rather he looked up to the sky and left with ease.

Lin Zhen sat on the stone bench for a long time without coming back to his senses.

Originally, he planned to use the hero-saving-beauty trick to win Haitang's favor, and then keep her by his side to fight against Gu Beichen.

But I didn’t expect that some people have the wind in their blood and are destined to wander the world.

Well, as long as I am still alive, I will definitely see her again.

Time flew by, and before he knew it, it was dark. Lin Zhen had been sitting here for the entire afternoon.

When Huanbi heard that he had been sitting here all afternoon, she came over with dinner and called softly, "Prince."

"Ok?"

Lin Zhen suddenly looked up and met Huanbi's big watery eyes.

"You've been sitting here all afternoon, it's time to eat."

Huanbi placed the dinner on the stone table, including a bowl of noodles, egg sauce, diced radish, and a cup of tea.

Lin Zhen was indeed a little hungry, so he picked up his chopsticks and started eating without caring about the place.

While eating, Huanbi wiped the sauce from the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief and said with a smile.

"Hou Chun's mother was buried alongside his father. Ergou, Han Zhong, and many of the soldiers from the Longxiang Camp also went to see her off, piling paper money like a mountain. Hou Chun's sister was also bought back by a servant. She fainted twice at the funeral. The brother and sister just returned home and are now awaiting assignments in the guard camp."

Lin Zhen really wanted to hug this girl in his arms and kiss her.

The situation is perfect, she is beautiful and kind, and she loves me deeply. It would be a pity not to marry her.

But the girl was only sixteen years old, and although she had reached the age of marriage, Lin Zhen still couldn't get over it.

"Hurr~" Lin Zhen stuffed the last piece of diced carrot into his mouth and chewed it with a crunching sound. "Where's Liu Shuyao?"

"I was just about to say that. Minister Liu came hurriedly to see the master today, but the master had gone to the military camp and hadn't returned, so he went to look for the young mistress. He stayed in her room all day without coming out, and I don't know what they were talking about."

"Heh." Lin Zhen sneered.

It would be strange if Liu Hanyang was not anxious.

Lin Zhenxian had just said in the court that he was not fit for important tasks, and in the blink of an eye, those who had been on good terms with the Liu family distanced themselves from him.

Even the Gu family is now lukewarm towards him. Just now, he went to ask to see Gu Yunting, but he didn't see him.

Lin Zhen remembered his mentor's words when he first entered politics: Politics has always been a highly dangerous endeavor. Unless you have strong resources and the necessary conditions, it's best not to get involved. Someone without adequate training and connections who ventures into politics will sooner or later be defeated, just as the national hero Zuo Zongtang was unable to defeat the wily and calculating Li Hongzhang.

The Liu family is a small family that was helped to grow by the Lin family. All its resources and background are due to Lin Zhenxian.

Liu Hanyang did not see this clearly, nor did he realize this. He believed that he was born to be a high-ranking official.

In fact, without Lin Zhenxian's help, he was nothing.

The Liu family is nothing either.

Lin Zhen knew what he said to Liu Shuyao without even thinking about it. He must have wanted Liu Shuyao to persuade him not to let Lin Zhenxian target him in the court.

Don't you know that things in this world are not so easy to fool? If you think you can fool them so easily, there is no way.

From the moment you betrayed the Lin family and conspired with the Gu family.

You will never be able to turn things around.

After Lin Zhen finished his meal, he stood up and walked towards his own villa.

He wanted to see how this father and daughter acted.
