Chapter 126 Rebellious Girl
"What?" Lin Ruhai almost dropped his jaw in shock, staring at Lin Daiyu with eyes wide open in disbelief.
"Do you...do you know what you are saying?"
Seeing Lin Ruhai like this, Lin Daiyu said helplessly
"Ah, Dad, we didn't mean to hide it from you. We just didn't want to scare you. Alas, you still found out in the end."
It took Lin Ruhai a long while to come back to his senses. He gritted his teeth and said
"So Jia Hu also took you to kill people. How dare he?" His eyes were spitting fire.
If Jia Hu was here, he would probably pounce on him and bite him to death. It was really unbelievable that he could do such a thing as taking his own delicate daughter to kill someone.
Lin Daiyu's eyes suddenly turned red, and she said coldly
"Of course I'm going, Dad, you know what?
My mother and brother were killed by the Zhen family. I killed them with my own hands..."
Lin Ruhai trembled all over and looked at Lin Daiyu in surprise.
"How did you know?"
"Swish!" Lin Daiyu suddenly stood up, with an unbelievable look on her face, staring at Lin Ruhai with burning eyes.
"So, Dad, you know it was the Zhen family who did it.
But you didn't want to avenge them, instead you blamed your third brother for killing them."
Lin Ruhai's heart skipped a beat. Seeing Lin Daiyu's unfamiliar look, he panicked and said hurriedly:
"No, Yu'er, why don't I want revenge? I have already collected a lot of evidence about the Zhen family.
When the time comes, hand it over to Your Majesty, and the Zhen family will definitely be finished."
Lin Daiyu's face was already cold
"Dad, I'm very disappointed in you. You actually pinned your hopes on others. Can you guarantee that the emperor will take action against the Zhen family?
Haha, as long as that Lady Fengsheng from the Zhen family is still alive, would the emperor dare to take action?
Or do you really think I know nothing?" His voice grew colder as he spoke.
Lin Ruhai's eyes flickered and he looked at Lin Daiyu in shock. He didn't expect that she knew so many things.
"Dad, do you want to deal with my third brother?" Lin Daiyu suddenly said in a cold voice.
Lin Ruhai was even more surprised and took a few steps back.
It’s not a good thing to have a daughter who is too smart. Nothing can be hidden from her.
"Hey, Yu'er, come here, let me show you something." Lin Ruhai suddenly shook his head helplessly.
According to her daughter, she should be grateful to Jia Hu. What is this?
Lin Daiyu stepped forward, Lin Ruhai walked to the desk, took out the letter, and handed it to Lin Daiyu.
"Look, there's nothing I can do as a father."
Lin Daiyu took the letter and started reading it. She suddenly felt cold and the temperature in the room dropped several degrees in an instant.
Lin Ruhai looked at Lin Daiyu in doubt. He seemed to recognize this daughter less and less.
"You tyrant king, you deserve to die," Lin Daiyu said coldly.
"Ah" Lin Ruhai's face changed drastically and he exclaimed.
"Hmph, how dare you to deceive the king." A cold and stern shout rang out.
A man in black suddenly appeared in the room and slashed at Lin Daiyu with a long knife.
"No." Lin Ruhai had no time to react and could only watch.
"Swoosh" a beam of white light shot out from Lin Daiyu's wrist.
"Ding" sparks flashed, the long sword broke into two pieces, the man in black paused, and a small white snake was wrapped around his neck.
"Puff." A head fell to the ground, blood spurted out from the headless corpse, and the room was immediately filled with the smell of blood.
Lin Daiyu didn't know when a small white snake had coiled around her shoulder, its tongue moving in and out.
Lin Ruhai closed his mouth. How could he forget that there was a snake on his daughter's body? It was very powerful. Looking at the headless corpse, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
This was the person sent by the Emperor to deliver the letter. Now he has been killed. How should I explain this to His Majesty?
Lin Daiyu didn't even look at the corpse and turned to leave.
Lin Ruhai said hurriedly
"Yu'er, where are you going?"
Lin Daiyu raised the letter in her hand and said as a matter of course
"Of course I'm showing it to my third brother." After saying that, he hurried out.
When Lin Ruhai was stunned, Lin Daiyu had disappeared. He could not help but shook his head helplessly.
"I haven't even married him yet, but I'm already so siding with him. What will happen in the future?" I felt a little sour and jealous.
Lin Ruhai hurriedly chased after him, but it seemed impossible to kill Jia Hu, so he could only think of a way to deal with the emperor.
Jia Hu looked at Lin Daiyu who had hurried back and asked in confusion
"Sister Lin, you're back so soon."
"Third brother, please take a look quickly." Lin Daiyu anxiously handed the letter in her hand to Jia Hu.
Jia Hu took the letter, looked down, and smiled.
"Oh, that's it."
Lin Ruhai just came over and heard this, his eyes suddenly widened
"Jia Hu, what do you mean by just this matter? Do you know how serious this matter is?"
Jia Hu looked at Lin Ruhai and smiled
"Uncle, isn't it just that the emperor wants to kill me? That's normal."
"Uh" Lin Ruhai's face froze
"Normal? What's normal about it?"
"Oh, I went to the palace once and wanted to kill him.
Later he used a substitute, and I was too lazy to find it, so I killed the substitute and gave him a warning.
It seems that he not only did not learn his lesson, but also felt resentful about it.
Then let's deal with him when we get back this time." Jia Hu said calmly.
Except for Lin Daiyu and Zhen Baoyu who did not find it strange, Lin Ruhai was already stunned.
What did he hear? This guy actually broke into the palace once and killed the emperor's stand-in.
Being so lawless, he began to doubt his life.
After a long while, Lin Ruhai looked at Jia Hu in doubt, took a deep breath and said:
"Jia Hu, I don't know where you get the confidence to not fear the imperial power.
But I hope you won't implicate Yu'er." After saying this, he looked at Lin Yuan deeply, and then said solemnly
"Originally, His Majesty wanted me to gain your trust and then poison you.
But Yu'er cares too much about you, and you saved me, so you go.
If you are really capable of solving these problems, I will naturally not stop you." He said sincerely. Jia Hu's eyes flashed and he nodded.
"Okay." He stood up and said that. He felt that what Lin Ruhai said made sense.
Lin Daiyu suddenly reached out to stop Jia Hu.
"It seems like you haven't asked for my opinion?" She slowly raised her head, a trace of blood appeared in her eyes, and looked at Lin Ruhai.
Lin Ruhai's heart skipped a beat and he said worriedly
"Yu'er."
"Dad, just treat me as an unfilial daughter.
I am the master of my own life, no one can make decisions for me, not even you." Lin Daiyu's temperament changed, as if she were a king.
“No…”
Lin Ruhai was stunned. This was his daughter? This kind of temperament?
He trembled all over, just like when he faced Emperor Qianwen. No, it should be said that her imperial temperament was stronger.
This is weird. What on earth did Yu'er experience in the capital?
After saying this, she reached out and took Jia Hu's hand.
"Dad, I have already decided on my third brother. No matter what happens, we will face it together. Please help me."
Jia Hu was also a little confused. Looking at Lin Daiyu beside him, he felt something was unreal and his heart was in turmoil.
Suddenly, he exerted force with his hands, tightly held Lin Daiyu's hand, and said nothing.
Lin Daiyu trembled and turned around to smile sweetly at Jia Hu.
Lin Ruhai was in a trance when he saw the two boys and girls holding hands. They really were a perfect match.
I thought of myself and Jia Min back then. We were an enviable couple. Unfortunately.
His eyes moistened slightly, and he sighed. As long as Yu'er liked him, why should he be a bad person?
As a person who had almost died once, he had finally come to terms with it. Suddenly, he looked at Jia Hu with a sharp gaze.
"Hu Ge'er, you have also seen Yu'er's affection for you.
If you bully her, humph, I will not let you go even if I die and become a ghost."
Jia Hu's body trembled, and he saw a hint of pleading in Lin Ruhai's eyes.
Poor parents, his face became serious and he said solemnly
"Uncle, don't worry, I can swear to God."
"That's not necessary." Lin Ruhai suddenly interrupted.
"For those who keep their promises, no oath is needed.
What's the point of swearing to a villain? I believe in Yu'er's judgment."
Lin Daiyu looked at Lin Ruhai in surprise
"Dad, you"
"Ha, Yu'er, as long as you are happy, Dad will be happy too. Okay, let's talk business." He didn't want to dwell on this matter.
But seriously
"I know His Majesty's character well. He will definitely not just arrange for me to kill Hu Ge'er. He must have other plans."
At this moment, Amber rushed in again and interrupted Lin Ruhai.
"Master, there is a man named Wu Neng outside who wants to see you, um, he is a captain or something."
Lin Ruhai was stunned. He looked at Jia Hu in confusion. He didn't know this person.
Jia Hu knew it was Captain Wu and frowned slightly.
"Amber, I know him, let him in."
Amber said quickly
"Okay, son-in-law." After saying that, he turned around and left in a hurry.
"Who is this Captain Wu? How do you know him?" Lin Ruhai asked vigilantly.
"We came to Yangzhou on a government ship, and he was the captain leading the troops on it." Jia Hu explained briefly.
Lin Ruhai frowned and nodded.
Captain Wu ran over breathlessly, his face pale.
"Master, something terrible has happened. Someone is coming to kill you."
Lin Ruhai was startled and asked hurriedly, "What's going on?"
Captain Wu then noticed Lin Ruhai standing beside him, his face changed and he became hesitant.
"Uh, Lord Lin is here too."
Jia Hu said calmly
"Wu Neng, tell me, who wants to kill me?"
Captain Wu looked at Lin Ruhai carefully, then whispered
"My Lord, please leave quickly. The commander of the Jiangnan garrison camp is heading towards Yangzhou with his soldiers.
They said they were going to wipe out the entire Lin family, and of course they were mainly targeting you."
"What?" Lin Ruhai's face suddenly turned ugly. It's not that quick to kill a donkey after it's done its job.
He was filled with anger. He was the emperor's confidant, but he didn't expect this to be the result.
For the first time, he regretted his decision to side with the emperor.
People said that this emperor was mean and ungrateful, but he didn't believe it. Now he has finally seen it.
Jia Hu and Lin Daiyu were both very quiet, without any sign of panic. Jia Hu looked Captain Wu up and down.
"Why did you come to report the news?" This was what he found most strange.
He didn't believe that he had any kind of domineering aura that could make people bow down to him at first sight.
Captain Wu was stunned, looked at Jia Hu, and suddenly straightened his chest and said loudly
"Master, haven't I already become your disciple?
As the saying goes, a loyal minister does not serve two masters. I am loyal to you, and heaven and earth can bear witness to that. I will never be a traitor. "
Jia Hu narrowed his eyes and said calmly,
"speak English."
