Chapter 1130 I'll Save Your Life (1 Million Votes Plus)
Lin Wan clenched her hands tightly under her cloak, her nails digging deep into her palms!
Luoluo did not notice Lin Wan's momentary loss of composure. Fear made her want to tell everything she knew in exchange for a chance of survival.
She panted heavily, her voice filled with tears, and continued to reveal the secret that was enough to drag everyone into hell: "... Later... Later, Master Lin gave Madam a jade hairpin... The pearl at the end of the hairpin... was... was empty!"
"It contains... a poison that can rupture a person's intestines!"
"Master Lin said... he wanted his wife to take advantage of the chaos in Mulan Paddock... to sneak into Concubine Chen's food... and to... to let Concubine Chen... die here to avenge their child!"
boom--! ! !
Lin Wan felt as if her scalp exploded instantly, and a chill rushed from the soles of her feet to the top of her head, making the hairs all over her body stand on end!
Poisoning Concubine Chen? !
My husband is so crazy?!
How dare he instruct Shen Nanqiao to use such vicious means to murder the woman who was favored by the emperor and held in the palm of his hand? !
fortunately!
Fortunately, I have already seen through the true nature of this broken ship of Duke Dingguo's Mansion.
Fortunately, I chose to turn from darkness to light in time.
If I were still as ignorant as before and still attached to Liu Shixiu...
When he instructs Shen Nanqiao to poison Concubine Chen, no matter whether he succeeds or not, once the matter is exposed, the emperor will be furious and the Duke Dingguo's Mansion will be destroyed!
And she, Lin Wan, as Liu Shixiu's legally married wife, will bear the brunt of the disaster and will surely die without a burial place!
It will also bring trouble to my mother's family.
Cold sweat instantly soaked Lin Wan's close-fitting clothes. The cold wind of late autumn made her shiver.
She looked at the green radish still shivering on the ground with an extremely complicated look in her eyes.
Fear, relief, and dread...all eventually turned into an abyss of ice-coldness that was too deep to see the bottom of the ice.
Lin Wan slowly loosened her clenched hands, leaving a deep crescent mark on her palms, but her voice returned to its previous calmness: "Get up."
There was a mixture of tears and dirt on Green Radish's face, making her look miserable.
Hearing Lin Wan's words, she felt as if she had heard the sound of a savior, and she kowtowed again hurriedly: "Thank you, Madam! Thank you, Madam, for your kindness!"
After she finished speaking, Luoluo stood up tremblingly with her stiff legs, hanging her head and not daring to breathe.
Lin Wan's eyes swept over her, and she lowered her voice very low: "If you dare to tell Shen Nanqiao or anyone else about what happened today..."
"The way to survive that you just sought has now become a way to death!"
Green Rose trembled all over, lowered her head even lower, and said in a crying voice: "I dare not!"
"I swear! I have never seen you today! If I tell you even a lie, I will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death!"
Lin Wan nodded slightly, her expression unclear in the shadows: "Very good."
"I will verify what you just said. If it is true..."
She paused, and gave Luluo a glimmer of hope: "I will save your life and get you away from this place of trouble."
Luoluo's eyes instantly burst into an incredible ecstasy, and she almost knelt down again: "Thank you, Madam! Thank you, Madam, for giving me a new life!"
"Every word I say is true, there is no falsehood!"
Lin Wan's voice returned to its coldness: "Listen, go back to Shen Nanqiao right now. Serve her as you should, as if nothing happened today, and don't let her see any abnormality in you."
She turned her head slightly and winked at Yun Tao behind her.
Yun Tao immediately understood, took a step forward, and lowered her voice as well: "My name is Yun Tao. In the future, if there is any movement from Shen Nanqiao, especially regarding the hairpin, or when she plans to make her next move..."
"Find an inconspicuous opportunity to deliver the message to the east side of the camp, behind the third pile of wooden boxes where spare arrows are stored, and someone will pick you up."
Green Rose nodded hurriedly, engraving the key words firmly in her mind: "Yes! I'll remember it! I will definitely get it done!"
"Go."
Lin Wan uttered the last two words, which were like an amnesty.
Green ivy felt as if she had been pardoned. She bowed deeply again, then turned around and fled from this place that frightened her but also brought her a glimmer of hope.
She didn't dare to run, so she could only suppress her pounding heart and weak legs, and walked quickly along the shadow of the tent with her head down.
The chill of late autumn seemed even heavier, blowing on Green Radish's sweaty temples, stirring up waves of icy shivers.
When she finally got back to Shen Nanqiao's tent, it was completely dark, with only the faint flickering light of the night patrol torches in the distance.
Shen Nanqiao was wrapped in a cloak, standing outside the tent, facing the direction of Shen Zhinian's tent. His back looked a little stiff in the cold wind.
Hearing footsteps, she turned around abruptly. Her face was frighteningly gloomy in the dim light, and she asked harshly, "Where the hell have you been?!"
Luoluo's heart suddenly rose to her throat, and her knees went weak and she almost fell to her knees.
She pinched her palm tightly, using the pain to force herself to calm down, and forced a timid smile on her face, with just the right amount of grievance and flattery in her voice: "Madam, calm down!"
"I just saw the beautiful mountain scenery over there. It's a rare opportunity to come out, so I couldn't help but stay a little longer..."
Luoluo pointed randomly in a distant direction, her voice getting lower and lower, with a guilty feeling as if she had been caught.
Shen Nanqiao stared at her pale face and slightly red eyes suspiciously.
Luoluo has always been timid and fearful, and this excuse is consistent with her inexperienced nature.
In addition, Shen Nanqiao's heart was filled with hatred for Shen Zhinian and anxiety about taking action, so he had no time to investigate the whereabouts of a maid.
She snorted coldly, swung her sleeves irritably, turned around, opened the curtain and walked inside, her voice full of resentment: "Useless thing, why don't you come over and rub my shoulders!"
"During this journey, that bitch Shen Zhinian really treated me like a slave girl. I was so tired that my bones fell apart!"
Green Rose felt relieved and quickly responded, "Yes! Yes! I'll be right there!"
She quickly followed him in, the curtain falling behind her, blocking out the biting cold wind outside, but it couldn't block out the fear in Luluo's heart that was about to jump out of her chest...
She walked to the low couch covered with a simple mattress, looked at Shen Nanqiao lying with his back to her, stretched out her hand stiffly, and carefully placed it on Shen Nanqiao's shoulder.
The muscles under the fingertips were tense and full of hostility.
Green Radish suppressed her trembling and began to knead it vigorously, her movements were gentler and more cautious than usual, fearing that if she was not careful, she would anger the increasingly moody Shen Nanqiao.
……
The camp was completely plunged into the cold night of late autumn.
The wind was howling outside the tent, and the light of the night watch torches flickered in the distance like will-o'-the-wisp.
Lin Wan returned to her ordinary tent, dismissed the other maids, and left only Yun Tao.
