Chapter 393 I will do my best to help you!
Lu Huai glanced sideways slightly, and he smelled a faint herbal fragrance on Lin Zhiqing, which was not there before.
But he didn't think much about it, and there was no romantic idea in his mind at all.
Instead, he revealed everything that the Ministry of Revenue had discovered about the Ministry of War's grain and fodder.
Lin Zhiqing quickly saw the problem: "This Ministry of War is quite interesting. The Vice Minister is the most powerful, while the Minister of State is invisible."
"He won't be invisible for long." Lu Huai raised his eyebrows.
"He thought that pushing out a scapegoat would solve the problem, but that's far from enough."
"Do you have evidence? Evidence that the Minister of Revenue was involved in this matter?" Lin Zhiqing asked.
Lu Huai nodded:
"The Minister of War still wants to make a final struggle, but the Zhenyuan Marquisate is in trouble and is entangled in the affairs of the Lin family. He has no time to deal with him."
"He can't escape this matter of food and grass."
Lu Huai raised the corners of his eyes and mouth, and was obviously very confident.
"This matter must be related to the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion?" Lin Zhiqing spoke again.
"Of course." Lu Huai confirmed her statement:
"The Zhenyuan Marquisate and the Minister of War have secretly collaborated on many things, but I only have a small amount of evidence, which is not enough to convict the Zhenyuan Marquisate."
"This Jiang Yunhe is really an indestructible cockroach." Lin Zhiqing muttered softly.
Then she thought of her analysis of the royal family sitting on the sidelines and watching the tigers fight.
After thinking for a moment, he finally spoke to Lu Huai:
"Lu Huai, I suspect that some court officials and the royal family knew about my father's frame-up."
Lu Huai paused, then stood up and looked at Lin Zhiqing:
"What do you mean?"
Lin Zhiqing pinched his chin and reanalyzed the problem he had mentioned before.
Then, she sighed softly: "At that time, there were three forces standing in the way of the Lin family."
"The royal family, the marquis, and Jiang Yunhe."
"Jiang Yunhe wants to take the throne, and the royal family wants to get rid of him. The marquisate system is contrary to my father's idea of fighting for the interests of common people and women."
"I wonder if these reasons are the reasons why they watched my father die."
Lu Huai's eyes gradually changed from surprise to anger. He took a deep breath:
"Your analysis is not without reason. In other words, they don't care whether Uncle Lin is a traitor or not."
"Uncle Lin's death will prevent their interests from being affected."
"That's exactly what I meant." Lin Zhiqing frowned.
Lu Huai also frowned: "When the Ministry of Revenue investigated the Ministry of War this time, it can be said that they had almost no obstacles."
"I was just a little skeptical before, but now that I hear you say that, it seems the people above me really think the Jiang family is an eyesore."
"This court trial concerns the life and death of the Lin and Jiang families."
"Aqing, I will do my best to help you."
Lin Zhiqing looked up at Lu Huai and asked, "Can this food and grass issue slow down the Jiang family's progress?"
"Of course." Lu Huai nodded. "The items stolen from the Zhenyuan Marquis' Mansion a few days ago were also related to the Minister of War."
This was something Lin Zhiqing hadn't expected: "Why are they exchanging items privately?"
Lu Huai didn't say anything, just shook his head slightly.
Lin Zhiqing paused, his expression suddenly becoming serious: "Lu Huai, the Zhenyuan Marquisate wouldn't want to..."
Before she finished speaking, Lu Huai nodded:
"It's very likely, but this matter is of great importance, so I dare not speculate."
Lin Zhiqing didn't say anything else, but thought carefully.
“Da, da…”
Her fingertips tapped the table lightly, making a sound.
Lu Huai put the book away and said, "Ah Qing, I heard about Yan Wu's disappearance."
"Have you been following the movements of Dali Temple Minister Zhou Chongzheng?" Lin Zhiqing asked.
Lu Huai nodded: "Not long after Li Jinzhi's incident, Jiang Liuyun went to the Zhou family."
"Your plan should have been discovered by then." Lu Huai said softly.
"Zhou Chongzheng looks calm, but he's very secretive and ruthless."
"Ling Shuo must have been murdered by him in order to expose the Lin family's tracks."
Lin Zhiqing frowned:
"Mrs. Ling probably didn't know about this. Zhou Chongzheng was indeed cruel enough to kill his wife's brother with his own hands, thus eliminating any possibility for the Lin family to hold him hostage."
"I don't quite understand this." Lu Huai said truthfully.
"Lu Huai." Lin Zhiqing picked up a book at hand and flipped through it casually:
"You have people in the Ministry of Justice's office, and you also have people in the Dali Temple?"
Lu Huai had no intention of hiding this from Lin Zhiqing. He nodded slightly and said, "They were all planted there many years ago. They are trustworthy."
"If you need anything, I will make sure people obey you."
Lin Zhiqing shook his head, and the sound of turning pages of the book in his hand was very obvious:
"I wonder if your people have found out that Zhou Chongzheng is amassing a fortune through lawsuits?"
Lu Huai's expression was not very good: "Making money?"
"My people haven't found out about this. Where did you get the information?"
"Yan Wu gave it to me," Lin Zhiqing replied simply. "If this matter were to be exposed, would Zhou Chongzheng die?"
"That's right, but there's not enough time now." Lu Huai quickly analyzed it in his mind and shook his head.
"What do you want to do next?" He pressed the book in Lin Zhiqing's hand and looked into Lin Zhiqing's eyes.
The two of them were very close.
Lin Zhiqing could see Lu Huai by turning sideways. She thought for a moment before speaking:
"I plan to find Yan Wu first."
"Three days may not be enough." Lu Huai's expression was slightly serious.
"Besides, the matter between the Zhenyuan Marquis' Mansion and the Minister of War has been quite a big deal recently, and it cannot be handled in a short time."
"I'm afraid they'll become desperate and do something desperate. If that happens, you'll be the one in the greatest danger."
"These three days will not pass easily. It will be a life-and-death battle between the Lin and Jiang families."
"I always feel that the Jiang family will make a big move, so no matter how angry you are, I must let Yun Feng follow you."
His tone was extremely serious.
"Is the Jiang family's situation so dire?" Lin Zhiqing blinked and changed the subject:
"Lu Huai, you need to move slowly. At least wait until my father overturns the verdict before you bring up the matter between the Ministry of War and the Marquis of Zhenyuan."
"If the Jiang family collapses early, the Lin family will never be able to wash away the dirty water."
"Don't worry, I've been waiting for you." Lu Huai said without thinking.
Lin Zhiqing was slightly stunned, her ears felt a little hot. She walked around the table and distanced herself from Lu Huai.
"Lu Huai, I have something else to tell you." Lin Zhiqing raised his head and looked at Lu Huai with a complicated look.
Lu Huai sat down opposite her: "Are you willing to believe me?"
There was anticipation and joy in his eyes, and Lin Zhiqing saw it clearly.
She smiled slightly and said, "Before, I was too cautious and too conceited, so I hurt you again and again."
"Lu Huai, I'm sorry."
There was guilt and some trepidation in her tone:
"I remember you once said that I am the only one who is different from others in your eyes."
Lu Huai nodded without hesitation: "I did."
"What about now?" Lin Zhiqing leaned forward, tears in his eyes.
Somehow, Lu Huai's heart ached slightly, and he nodded heavily:
"My mind has never changed."
