All the money was emptied on the way to exile, and there was too much money to spend

Chapter 156 More Vicious Than a Tiger

She opened her eyes.

"Cicada..."

Xie Lin picked him up, looking worried: "Did you have a nightmare again?"

"Yeah, I dreamed about some things from my childhood."

Specifically, it should be a dream about the original owner's childhood.

At such a young age, a delicate and pretty little girl, still at an age when she was particularly dependent on her parents, was left alone in the mountains by her biological mother.

In the surrounding woods, there were many wolves with green eyes, staring at the little girl who was left behind...

Xia Chan had never experienced this situation personally.

But perhaps because she inherited this body, she could deeply feel the helplessness and despair of the little girl when she was left behind.

What kind of person could do such a thing?

If everything in her dream was true, then it could only be said that Lin Yu and his wife were more vicious than a tiger.

Even a tiger won’t eat its own cubs, but what about what Lin Yu and the others did?

Leaving a child of five or six years old in such a desperate valley, surrounded by hungry wolves eyeing him covetously.

How is this any different from just killing her?

Xia Chan whispered to Xie Lin what she had dreamed about.

After Xie Lin heard this, he clenched his fists.

"They are simply not human."

Xia Chan smiled.

"It's great that you have such awareness. I'm actually afraid that you will say that there are no bad parents in the world!"

She said this to tease Xie Lin.

But Xie Lin felt very sad when he heard it.

"Chanchan, you have suffered."

If only he had known her earlier.

In other words, I wish he could be by her side to protect her every time she was in danger.

“It may not have been possible before, but it will be possible in the future.”

"You have to promise me that no matter what happens, you will stay by my side to protect me."

Even if by then, she has become a complete bad person.

He also wanted to stand on her side.

"I will cicada."

"I will always protect you."

Xie Lin made a solemn promise.

Xia Chan also believed that he could do what he said.

The two fell asleep in each other's arms again.

This time, Xia Chan did not have nightmares again, nor did he dream of the scene of being isolated and helpless.

She had a good night's sleep.

In the imperial palace, in Fengqi Palace, Queen Lin Rong was so angry that she couldn't even eat dinner after learning that the baby in Xia Yuanan's belly was a son.

Not to mention being able to sleep at night.

The emperor, who was about to kick his feet, miraculously recovered after that bitch Xia Yuanan came into the palace.

She even thought of the eulogy for the crown prince after he ascended the throne. How could the old emperor be so good again?

Isn't this a slap in her face?

What’s even more infuriating is that after the old emperor recovered, he made Xia Yuanan pregnant.

Xia Yuanan is currently in great favor and is pregnant with a son. If she were to give birth to the child, it would threaten Che'er's throne.

Even if it would not threaten Yuan Che's position, the Queen could not just watch Xia Yuanan give birth to this child.

Unable to sleep, she was hatching a vicious plan in her mind, planning to get rid of Xia Yuanan and the bastard in her belly in one fell swoop.

Yes, Lin Rong doesn’t think that the child in Xia Yuanan’s belly is really the old emperor’s.

The old man is sixty years old and has been sick for so long. Even if he recovers, that thing will definitely be useless.

So the child in Xia Yuanan's belly must be a bastard.

Lin Rong felt much better thinking about this.

She called her confidant and asked her to find Xia Yongyan.

The task of getting rid of Xia Yuanan still has to be done by Xia Yongyan.

Only if he takes action can he do it without anyone noticing and without arousing anyone's suspicion.

Lin Rong's confidant knew about Lin Rong and Xia Yongyan's affair.

In fact, she was the one who helped keep watch several times when the two of them were having trysts.

Now having heard the Queen's order, she nodded quickly, turned around and left the palace.

Not caring whether it was the middle of the night outside, she left the palace, changed her clothes, and went to the Lin'an Marquis Mansion by wandering around.

He quietly entered the Lin'an Marquis Mansion through the side door reserved for Xia Yongyan.

She thought she could do all this without anyone noticing.

But she never expected that there was a pair of eyes watching her every move in secret.

Seeing someone enter the Lin'an Marquis Mansion, the surveillance figure in the dark kept staring at the Lin'an Marquis Mansion.

He left quietly only after everyone came out.

The next day, Xie Lin learned that the Queen had sent her confidant to find Xia Yongyan.

He sent the messenger away and turned around to tell Xia Chan the news.

Xia Chan blinked.

"Queen?"

"She sent someone to look for my dad? My dad, right?"

Xia Chan was a little uncertain.

Xie Lin nodded.

"Yes."

"Uh... this is a little difficult to comment on."

The sister-in-law and brother-in-law were secretly communicating with each other in the middle of the night when everything was quiet. It was hard not to think that there was something fishy going on.

When Xie Lin saw Xia Chan’s confused look, he walked to her with an amused look and gently held her hand.

"I used to think that they were nice to Chanchan, so some things could be ignored."

But now it turns out that they are not kind to cicadas at all.

Then there is no need to cover up for them.

"Hmm? What's going on?"

Xia Chan asked, and immediately said to herself: "Ah, it can't be what I think? The Queen and the Marquis of Lin'an?"

On the surface, the two are sister-in-law and brother-in-law, but secretly their relationship is different?

Dirty physical relationship?

When Xia Chan thought of this, he couldn't help but take a breath.

At the same time, I also became interested.

"Is it true? Both of them?"

"Yes."

Xie Lin looked at Xia Chan with a smile: "Chan Chan is really smart."

Summer Cicada: ...

This hardly requires any thought, right?

"Does the emperor know he's been cuckolded?"

The summer cicada is very curious.

Xie Lin shook his head.

"They are very secretive and very careful every time."

If he hadn't asked people to pay more attention, the relationship between Xia Yongyan and Lin Rong probably wouldn't have been discovered.

Xia Chan's mouth twitched.

"That would be meaningless!"

"How can someone be cuckolded and not realize it? How boring it is to let them have it all smooth sailing."

Xie Lin looked at his wife's disappointed face and couldn't help laughing: "Okay."

He went to arrange it.

This scandal will be presented to the emperor's table.

At that time, he will open his eyes and watch carefully how this extremely suspicious emperor will deal with this scandal.

Since the decision has been made to do this, Xie Lin has asked people to pay special attention to the situation in Lin'an Marquis Mansion in the next few days.

He believed that they would take action soon.

Sure enough, two days later, Marquis Lin'an went out.

He said he had made an appointment with an old friend to have tea and go fishing outside the city.

He did not bring any guards with him, just a man with a servant, and traveled lightly after getting on a simple carriage.

Xie Lin knew that today was the day.
