While Jin Shu and others were busy working on the open source of the Hou Mansion, Li Jinjiang on the other side had already arrived in the capital.Li Jinjiang's internal strength is unfathomable. He has been using light work to drive this way, but his speed is two points faster than that of a thousand-mile horse. The three days of non-stop driving only made him a little tired.

It was meal time at this time, Li Jinjiang was hungry, so he found a random inn to have a light meal.Not long after he sat down, he heard the guests next to him talking about Lin Dao.

"If you say that this Marquis of Taiping has made great contributions to me, I never thought he would do such absurd things that insult the state!"

"After all, Marquis Lin is the servant of the late emperor, so even if he took a hundred concubines, it's nothing, right? With Marquis Lin's merits, isn't he worthy of a few women?"

"Hey, what do you know? Do you think that Taiping Hou's beauty is for that purpose? They are all specially used for humiliation - how long have those delicate beauties been in Lin Hou's hands, and there are countless disfigured and disabled ones, say Maybe there are some who died and were transported out of the mansion to be buried!"

"Hey... this, this is too..." The people around gasped after hearing this, and it took a while before someone said cautiously: "After all, Marquis Lin is a general, and he is also a murderer who kills without batting an eye on the battlefield... What do you say? , he couldn't control the beauty as an enemy in his sleep..."

"I've heard that if this general kills too many people, he will be haunted by grievances, and his temperament will become violent and bloodthirsty. Even if there is no battle, he can't control the desire to kill... Isn't this the same for the Marquis of Taiping?"

"Wow..." There was a crisp sound of broken porcelain, which startled several guests who were talking about Lin Dao in a low voice, and saw a person sitting next to him stand up suddenly, and disappeared without a trace in a flash, leaving only Everyone glanced at the stern figure.

Little WWII tremblingly came over to clean up the mess, only to find that the dishes on the table had been silently reduced to powder by the man's internal force, and there was still a silver ingot on the table.

Li Jinjiang walked on the street like a ghost, and his heart was full of anger. When he heard the words disabled and disfigured, he couldn't listen at all.If Lin Dao really dared to treat his sister like this... Thinking of this, Li Jinjiang couldn't control the tyrannical emotions in his heart.

Along the way, he heard people talking about Lin Dao more than once, all of which were domineering and lustful comments. Li Jinjiang's impression of Lin Dao has long been bad, but before he met the real person, he would not be reckless. draw conclusions.

Realizing that he was not in the right mood, Li Jinjiang quietly calmed down his anger, asked the passers-by to find out the location of the Hou Mansion, and rushed over without delay.Unexpectedly, as soon as he got near the Hou's Mansion, he sharply saw a carriage coming out of the back door of the Hou's Mansion.

Li Jinjiang hurriedly hid aside, observed for a while, and couldn't help frowning: This carriage didn't have the sign of the Marquis's Mansion, it was the kind of ordinary to inconspicuous type, the driver dressed plainly and acted sneakily, Li Jinjiang Jin Jiang subconsciously felt that the car was weird, and immediately attached it quietly.

The carriage cautiously turned around in the downtown area, and it seemed that no one was watching, and then quickly drove to a mass grave in the suburbs.What happened next made Li Jinjiang's heart skip a beat: a few guys dragged out a coffin from the carriage, dug a hole in the ground, and buried the coffin in it.

After finishing these things, several people immediately drove the carriage away from the scene.Li Jinjiang glared at the group of people fiercely, and did not come out from the dark until they left.He walked to the place where the coffin was buried, and immediately started digging the grave.

Seeing the woman's face in the coffin, he subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, and then his heart became heavy again: the woman's facial features were mutilated, and her right arm was empty. It was obvious that she had suffered cruel abuse before she died. Li Jinjiang was so angry that he turned to the deceased He kowtowed his head three times, thought "offended" in his heart, and rolled up the woman's sleeves cruelly...

When Li Jinjiang left the mass grave, the place where the coffin was buried had been restored to its original state, but at this moment his heart was already filled with the desire to kill.He felt that the matter was very clear: after Taipinghou tortured people to death, he secretly pulled them out because he was afraid of ruining his reputation, and buried them in a concealed manner.

Thinking that his sister was in the hands of such a human demon at this time, and he didn't know what the situation was like, fear suddenly surged in Li Jinjiang's heart, and he hurried to the Hou's mansion quickly.

At this time in Taipinghou Mansion, Lin Dao was furious at a group of wives and concubines: "Why did no one tell me about Xiu Niang's death? She was thrown into a mass grave and buried like this! She is also a sister who suffered with you, How can you bear..."

The more Lin Dao spoke, the more angry he became, and he looked at Jinshu with disappointment in his eyes: I thought she was the woman in the mansion who really loved her, but did I misunderstand the person?

Seen by Lin Dao's disappointed eyes, Jin Shu's heart felt like a knife, and he knelt down and wept: "Master Hou, I'm sorry for Lord Hou... But, I did hasty with the funeral of Xiuniang. Last wish..."

"What?" Lin Dao was stunned when he heard this, and looked at the crowd in disbelief. When the others saw Lin Dao looking over, they all nodded and knelt down and cried to echo Jin Shu's words.

Lin Dao's reputation has been discredited because of accepting hundreds of concubines. Even though these women are in the Hou's mansion, it is impossible for these women to know nothing about it.At this time, if news of the dead in the mansion spread, Lin Dao's reputation would be even more irreparable.The dead embroidered lady was also scruples about this, so she asked the sisters in the mansion to bury her quietly.

After all the wives and concubines explained the matter clearly, they all cried into tears. Although Lin Dao was moved, he still wanted to bring Xiuniang back for a formal funeral, but as soon as he spoke, everyone tried their best to stop him , Lin Dao had no choice but to give up for the time being, and planned to wait until the matter subsided before making a fuss.

However, Jin Shu said that this matter is not over yet. She looked at Lin Dao reluctantly, and took the lead in saying everyone's request: "Master Hou, it's us who hurt your reputation. Why don't you send us all out of the mansion, Master Hou? Find another Zhuangzi to settle in?"

Lin Dao became anxious immediately after hearing this, and quickly interrupted her: "How can this be done! You are all from my Lin Dao, where do you live if you don't live in the Hou's Mansion?" If this is really done, these women will be abandoned by Lin Dao up.

Seeing the dismay on everyone's faces, Lin Dao slowed down his tone and said comfortingly: "You don't have to worry about my reputation, the emperor is afraid of my high achievements, and now I have such a big stain, which just happens to reassure him !"

Lin Dao's words made Jinshu's face slightly calm, but after thinking about it, she asked worriedly: "But Lord Hou has not married yet... If reputation is in the way, I'm afraid it will damage the marriage..."

After hearing this, Lin Dao waved his hands nonchalantly and said, "Don't worry about it—besides, what's the point of getting married? No matter how generous a woman is, she can't stand her husband having so many women!"

After he finished speaking, he joked with all his wives and concubines: "Now I have so many confidante companions, people don't know how much they envy me! Why do you want to marry a wife?"

"But Lord Hou..." Jin Shu was still about to say something, but Lin Dao cut her off very simply, and resorted to his trump card: "Even if I send you out of the house now, my reputation will never come back, and there is another charge of abandoning my wife and concubines." !"

Seeing everyone's weary expressions, Lin Dao comforted him again: "Don't think too much about it, it's not a bad thing for a military general to have a bad reputation at all! Maybe I can be blessed by misfortune and keep me alive for a long time!"

"I said I would take care of you for the rest of my life, how can a man break his word!" Lin Dao finally ended his conversation with his wives and concubines with these words.
