Chapter 406: Telepathy
Lin Zhiqing nodded: "I believe you."
Although the cave was a little cold, the two warm hearts came close to each other at that moment.
Lu Huai thought about it and decided to tell the whole story of his visit to the Lin family:
"Aqing, I don't want you to have any misunderstanding."
"The previous secret visit to the Lin family to investigate the imperial gift was not ordered by the Ministry of Revenue, but by my father."
Lin Zhiqing was slightly surprised:
"Lu Huai, I believe you. You said earlier that this matter was related to Uncle Lu, but I didn't expect the Ministry of Revenue was unaware of it."
Then she sighed softly and smiled slightly: "But these things are not important anymore. I won't doubt you anymore."
"No, you should know these things." Lu Huai sat beside her and spoke slowly:
"Although my father and your father seemed to be enemies, when your father died, my father also spoke up for him."
"But my father stayed away from the court and was powerless to help the Lin family."
"When the Ministry of Revenue reportedly wanted to investigate the imperial gift, I knew my father was concerned about the Lin family, so I told him."
"He told me to find out the truth and clear the Lin family's name, so I entered the Lin family under the pretext of helping you investigate the case."
"Uncle Lu has believed in the Lin family from the beginning, right?" Lin Zhiqing asked.
"That's right." Lu Huai nodded: "He believes that the Lin family has something hidden."
Lin Zhiqing took a deep breath: "My grandfather and my father will be happy to hear these words."
Lin Zhiqing just felt that Lin Congrong's life was too hard, and trust was actually a kind of comfort.
"Aqing, I have something else I want to confess to you." Lu Huai's eyes were very serious.
"Hmm? Is there anything else?" Lin Zhiqing asked.
Lu Huai held Lin Zhiqing's hand tightly and said, "At the beginning, I really had no intention of getting promoted in the Ministry of Revenue."
"I know I deeply understand your difficulties, and the difficulties faced by the Lin family. I don't want you to fight alone."
"At the same time, I also realized that only when I hold power in my own hands can I have the right to speak."
"So, I delved into the political career not for personal gain, but to stand by your side and do what you want to do."
The warmth in Lin Zhiqing's heart was about to overflow. She tilted her head to look at Lu Huai and curled the corners of her lips:
"Another reason is that you like me, right?"
Her eyes were very fiery.
Lu Huai didn't expect Lin Zhiqing to say such a thing, but he nodded quickly:
"Yes, that's right."
Then he smiled too:
"You don't know how happy I was when I learned Jiang Liuyun's true identity."
"From that moment on, I knew you wouldn't choose him again."
Lin Zhiqing didn't expect Lu Huai to admit it so straightforwardly, and smiled:
"Lu Huai, even if he is the Jiang Liuyun of the past, I will not be with him."
"You should have some confidence in me, but I'm very happy to hear you say these words."
Looking at Lin Zhiqing's smile, Lu Huai also curled up the corners of his mouth unconsciously.
He stood up and looked outside the cave, and felt that such a dangerous environment now seemed to have a different flavor.
However, he did not forget the main thing:
"Ah Qing, did you jump off the cliff with a plan?"
Lin Zhiqing stood beside him and did not deny: "How did you know?"
"You won't give up on yourself." Lu Huai's tone was very firm.
Lu Huai knew Lin Zhiqing very well, knew her struggles, and knew how difficult it was for her.
Lin Zhiqing looked outside and said, "There is indeed a plan."
"Do you think the Jiang family will think that I'm dead and no longer a threat?"
"As long as you don't stand in court for the trial in three days, they will win. Now..." Lu Huai was very sharp:
"If we want to go back, I'm afraid someone will do their best to stop us."
After saying that, he took Lin Zhiqing's hand and asked, "Have you arranged for someone from the Lin family to pick you up?"
"But now it's the second day, and tomorrow will be the last time."
"If we keep waiting for them, it might not be good."
"Indeed." Lin Zhiqing nodded: "If we want to get out, I'm afraid we still need to make an effort ourselves."
She gazed into the distance, her thoughts swirling in her mind.
Yes, this was a setup from the very beginning.
Lin Zhiqing knew very well that the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion would definitely take action against her.
The first thing is to use Yan Yu to write an article.
Someone saw someone who was suspected to be Yan Yu on Qiwu Mountain.
This is actually false news released by the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion.
Lin Zhiqing knew very well from the beginning that Yan Yu could not appear in Qiwu Mountain.
The Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion spread false news in a roundabout way, simply to lure Lin Zhiqing out and take the opportunity to attack Lin Zhiqing.
In addition, they specially found two people who had received training in mind-judging to pretend to be woodcutters in order to gain Lin Zhiqing's trust.
If Lin Zhiqing hadn't known that Yan Wu would not appear in Qiwu Mountain, he would probably have been deceived by the two woodcutters.
From this, Lin Zhiqing realized that the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion was setting a trap in Qiwu Mountain.
So, after discussing with Lin Shian, Lin Yangyang and Chaoyan, she decided to lure the snake out of its hole.
But before leading to the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion, she still needed to visit the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion.
If the Zhenyuan Marquisate wanted to take action against her, she certainly couldn't fall into the trap too easily.
Because Jiang Yunhe and Jiang Liuyun were both very wary of her.
So, she chose to stay indoors and retreat in order to advance.
The Lin family did a very thorough job in the scene of going to Qiwu Mountain to look for Yan Wu.
Lin Zhiqing did not show up on the surface and left the matter to Lin Shian.
In fact, under the protection of the people from Jianxin Hall, she cooperated with Lin Shian to study the terrain of Qiwu Mountain thoroughly.
But on the surface, Lin Zhiqing's absence meant that the Zhenyuan Marquisate could not take action against her.
So, after whetting Jiang Yunhe's appetite, Lin Zhiqing deliberately sent Lin Yangyang and Chao Yan to Bianliang.
Both of them were very close to Lin Zhiqing, and the Lin family sent them away in a very secretive way, not wanting anyone to know.
Based on this, the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion judged that Lin Zhiqing felt that he had no way out, so he sent Chao Yan and Lin Yangyang away.
So they kidnapped the two and tried to use them to threaten Lin Zhiqing to leave the Lin family.
Lin Zhiqing took advantage of the situation, pretended to be baited, and went to Qiwu Mountain.
She knew that Jiang Yunhe had murderous intentions, so she had already arranged people while she was looking for Yan Yu in Qiwu Mountain.
Just wait for the scene to become chaotic, then rescue Lin Yangyang and Chaoyan, and proceed to the next step.
The next action, of course, is Lin Zhiqing jumping off the cliff.
Hearing this, Lu Huai nodded slightly:
"You want the people in Zhenyuan Marquis' Mansion to think you're dead, or that you're no longer a threat, right?"
"Not bad." Lin Zhiqing nodded:
"If I had stayed at the Lin family for the next three days, I believe the Zhenyuan Marquisate would have used even more cruel means to force me out."
"In this case, I can only passively defend and be nervous."
Lu Huai pondered:
"So you chose to take the initiative and put yourself in danger to lower the Jiang family's guard and prevent them from doing something even more irreparable?"
Lin Zhiqing nodded slightly: "Yes, that's it."
Lu Huai thought for a moment and said, "I guess you have other purposes."
