Chapter 578 Buy His Support
Lin ngya, who had always been open and aboveboard, brought it up directly even if it was about making use of each other.
Xiao Yixin was secretly shocked and wondered why the girl showed so heroic spirit of the n of the Lin family.
He still rembered Lin ngya as the lovely little girl he had seen in his childhood.
Unexpectedly, she had grown up into a smart and alert lady when he didn’t notice her.
“I’ve been a disabled person who couldn’t do anything for the rest of my life. I’m willing to do anything for you even at the expense of my own life, Your Highness.”
Hearing Xiao Yixin’s words, Lin ngya lifted the corners of her mouth.
In fact, Xiao Yixin was a rare talent. At that ti, no one in the whole capital city didn’t know that he and his elder brother were respectively versed in literature and martial arts.
However, although Xiao Yixin was modest and kind at that ti, he still had the arrogance of a childe of noble birth.
Now, being poisoned with the Venomous Armored Insect eliminated the last bit of his impatience.
He probably would have boundless prospects.
He could be considered a big potential stock, so she decided to draw him over to her side in advance.
“Brother Yixin, don’t say that. We have been friends since our childhood, and I’ve always considered you my brother. In fact, after thinking for a long ti, I think it’s ti to tell you sothing. Uncle Xiao...”
Before Lin ngya could finish her words, Xiao Yixin’s face imdiately changed.
Seeing his anxious eyes, Lin ngya figure out what he was thinking.
“Don’t be nervous. Uncle Xiao is fine. It’s just that so ti ago after my father ca back, he sent soone to visit Uncle Xiao and heard that Uncle Xiao fell sick. My father has sent the best doctor in the capital city to treat him, but Uncle Xiao fell sick from worry. Since you disappeared, Uncle Xiao has broken down from constant overwork and been no longer as healthy as before. Moreover, your cousin brothers and your brothers born of your father’s concubines are not easy to deal with. A few months ago, I heard a scandal that they took advantage of the power of the Xiao family to kidnap a girl and got into a fight. Now my brother is in the capital city and often visits Uncle Xiao, so he managed to suppress the disturbance. But if things go on like this, I’m afraid that Uncle Xiao will die of anger aroused by these wicked people sooner or later.”
As Lin ngya told the story, she observed Xiao Yixin’s expression.
As the eldest son of his family, he was responsible for revitalizing his family. In fact, he kept it in mind all the ti.
Part of the reason why he left without saying goodbye before was that he was afraid that his horrible appearance would bring sha on his family.
Unexpectedly, his selfishness and willfulness hurt his parents, who doted on him, and brought damage to his clan he had been proud of.
“These bastards! The Xiao clan’s reputation established in a hundred years will sooner or later be destroyed by them!”
Xiao Yixin clenched his fists and said with a regretful and angry look.
Lin ngya knew that her words gave Xiao Yixin enough ntal stimulation.
After that, whether she could make Xiao Yixin pick up the courage to return to the Xiao family depended on what she was going to say.
“There is another thing that I have to tell you now. Uncle Xiao has never given up looking for you. He still considers you the son he is proud of. However, so people can’t bear to see you co back. Since they can’t find you, they intend to kill your parents. My husband has secretly sent so people to protect them. I heard that they once found so arsenic in your parents’ diet.”
“What? Bastards! Bastards!”
Xiao Yixin even failed to maintain the last bit of his calmness.
He opened his eyes wide and looked at Lin ngya with a raging fire in his dark eyes which could even burn out the dark night.
With a “bang”, he hit the trunk next to him with his fists.
Trickles of blood ca out from his scratch.
However, Xiao Yixin didn’t notice it at all.
“It’s all my fault! It’s all my fault! Father, mother!”
As an eight-foot-tall man, he was helpless and could only smash the tree trunk to vent his anger at this mont.
He had to find a way to vent the anger accumulating in his heart.
So of course, Lin ngya would give him this opportunity.
“Brother Yixin, I just hope that you could return to the Xiao family. His Highness, my brother, and I will definitely do our best to help you. In any case, your parents should not suffer this.”
Hearing Lin ngya ntion that she could that he could return to the Xiao family, Xiao Yixin imdiately turned his head, and the determination in his eyes gradually beca unshakable.
“Okay.”
However, the next mont, he knelt down in front of Lin ngya.
Lin ngya hurriedly tried to help him up with a surprised look, but unexpectedly, Xiao Yixin stopped her.
“Sister ngya, if it weren’t for you, I would have beco a useless person now. Moreover, if it weren’t for the protection of Uncle Lin and Brother Nansheng, my father and mother would have been killed. I have nothing but loyalty and sincerity. I’m willing to do anything for you and Prince Yu in this life even at the expense of my own life!”
After saying this sincerely and prudently, Xiao Yixin kowtowed hard three tis on the ground before Lin ngya reacted.
“Please get up, Young Master Xiao. My wife and I cannot accept this.”
Long Tianyu walked up to Lin ngya at so point in ti.
His words were polite, but he didn’t move at all.
Lin ngya glanced at him, couldn’t help laughing in her heart, and thought that he was so jealous.
Nevertheless, the most important thing was to get down to business. n’s business should be discussed by n.
“Brother Yixin, get up. We are on the sa side from now on. Regarding what you are going to do, His Highness has his plan. I’m going back now. Take your ti to have a talk.”
Lin ngya said with a nod and considered that she retired after accomplishing her work.
Back in her teacher’s carriage, Lin ngya turned around and inadvertently looked towards Long Tianyu.
In fact, Long Tianyu had more charisma than her.
It was not rely a matter of sexual attraction. So people could make others willingly submit to them with their manners.
Long Tianyu was the kind of person who was full of leadership.
Xiao Yixin would definitely beco one of Long Tianyu’s indispensable subordinates in the future.
“Silly girl, stop looking at them. You’ve paved the way for him. Do you want to give him a push on the way?”
In the carriage, Baili Rui teased his student without even raising his head.
“As long as he is fine with it, I can even carry him on the way. Old man, are you envious?”
Turning around, Lin ngya sat in front of her teacher and read the prescription her teacher sorted out.
She had a glib tongue, so Baili Rui just dropped the topic after giving her a hard look.
Alas, this girl would dishonor him and make him die with anger sooner or later.
“Our sect is so unfortunate. By the way, although this Xiao Yixin is not very smart, he could still be considered a capable person. Buying his support is tantamount to buying the support of the entire Xiao family. It’s quite a good deal.”
Lin ngya looked up at her teacher.
She showed a brighter smile and thought that although her teacher didn’t like to participate in political affairs, he had quite a unique view.
“Yes, the Xiao Family is worthy of my effort to ask for your help. By the way, teacher, have you got any clues about the toxicity of the Venomous Armored Insect?”
Xiao Yixin played his role in all respects. Not only he was tricked by Lin ngya, but also the poison in his body beca the key to eliminating the plague.
Of course, he didn’t sacrifice for nothing, because he would naturally benefit from it in the future.
Although her teacher was engaged in his research, after reading his prescription Lin ngya noticed that her teacher seed to have run into a bottleneck.
“Alas, I haven’t seen the finished product, so I can only make a rough guess now. By the way, I heard from Prince Yu that there is a doctor in Yunzhou who can cure the plague. We can ask him about it after we get there. Maybe we will get more clues.”
Baili Rui stopped writing, stretched himself, and began to chat with her.
“I have an intuition that this doctor is not simple, so I can’t completely trust him.”
Lin ngya put down the prescription in her hand and poured a cup of tea for her teacher.
“That’s right. He showed up exactly when everyone was dead. I’m afraid he has ulterior motives.”
Baili Rui took a sip of tea and told Lin ngya about his thought which was also Lin ngya’s thought.
Both the master and the disciple seed to be nerds enjoying studying dical skills, but in fact, they were shrewd.
“By the way, teacher, I have an intuition that both the Immortal Powder Long Tianyu was poisoned with and the Venomous Armored Insect Xiao Yixin was poisoned with are not ordinary things. Even if they were secretly developed by soone, the person, who can improve your old prescription, must have his unique skill in making poisons. Have you thought of anyone who could be this person?”
The Immortal Powder and the plague probably had sothing to do with the Candle Dragon Cult.
However, no matter how powerful a gang was, they needed professionals in making poisons and dical skills.
Since now she couldn’t find any evidence against the Candle Dragon Cult, she might as well nibble everything of the Candle Dragon Cult through these clues.
“Those who can compare with are all old monsters. A genius like your master couldn’t even be seen in a hundred years. Nevertheless, although those old monsters are wayward, they have long restrained themselves because of their old age. In addition, they all have their descendants. A wicked deed like this will probably bring harm to their descendants. However, if you want to investigate into it, I can help you.”
Although Baili Rui was bragging, Lin ngya knew better than anyone else that Baili Rui’s had the best dical skills among his peers indeed.
With the help of her teacher, she would definitely be able to find so clues.
“ngya, I have to tell you sothing.”
As Baili Rui said, he suddenly beca serious.
Even Lin ngya could not help feeling a little nervous. Could it be the trouble?
“Teacher, please go ahead.”
Baili Rui looked at his beloved disciple with a complicated expression and sighed with blank eyes as if he had returned to decades ago.
“Both the art of dicine and the art of poison have their own sources. In fact, our sect is closely related to the Lieyun State. The Baili family used to be a notable family in the Lieyun State. The Xin family, who now holds the positions of Imperial Preceptor and High Priest, wasn’t even qualified to carry shoes for our Baili family back then!”
