Chapter 313 Congratulations to Mr. Lu on his promotion!
Lin Zhiqing closed his eyes. What is this?
A misunderstanding that is not beautiful at all?
For her, the memory of Lin Congrong was really vague in her mind.
Apart from the few words I heard from Aunt Mu and others, there is almost no way to understand.
But apart from those "collaborating with the enemy and treason" incidents, Lin Congrong left a good impression on her.
Perhaps it was because of blood ties, but more so because of this person's way of doing things, which made Lin Zhiqing feel that he was different from some empty-headed people.
Lin Congrong not only does things for women, but also has some unique insights in the court.
However, Lin Zhiqing knows relatively little about these aspects.
Mainly because of Lin Congrong's treason, most people were terrified of him.
But now, Lin Zhiqing feels that he should have a deeper understanding and think about what kind of person his father, Lin Congrong, is.
Of course, this is only an auxiliary role. Her most important task at present is to find a way to get those who oppose the retrial to support it.
This will achieve the goal of clearing Lin Congrong's grievances and overthrowing the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion.
"Xiao Qing'er, Xiao Qing'er?" Lu Nanyue saw that Lin Zhiqing was a little distracted and waved her hand in front of her: "What are you thinking about?"
"It's okay." Lin Zhiqing's thoughts were interrupted, and he quickly came to his senses: "I was thinking about those children."
Speaking of those children, Lu Nanyue started talking:
"They are all pitiful people. To put it bluntly, the current atmosphere in Dasheng is not right. You don't know that the youngest of those children just now came from the Lu family clinic."
"Clinic?" This surprised Lin Zhiqing.
Lu Nanyue nodded:
"That's right. When the child's parents first became pregnant, they came to the clinic and asked me to take their pulse. I told them that if I predicted it was a girl, they would not want the baby."
"Putting aside the fact that I have no ability to tell whether the fetus is a boy or a girl, how is their behavior any different from murder?"
Lu Nanyue became more and more angry as she spoke:
"Later, they gave birth to a daughter. The couple was furious. They said it was my fault for not diagnosing the pulse and abandoned the child outside the clinic."
"The government can't do anything about them. How can I bear to watch that child die?"
"A daughter's body is not a rope that binds you, but a sword that can split the chaos. How you live your life is up to you."
After hearing this, Lin Zhiqing frowned deeply.
She knew that this place was very strict towards women, but she had no idea the impact was so great.
To be more precise, this place is more real than the novels and TV dramas she had read before, allowing Lin Zhiqing to personally experience some cruel things.
It is also because of this that Lin Congrong's appearance seems to be an outlier in Dasheng.
After returning to Jianxin Hall with mixed feelings, Lin Zhiqing did not stay long.
She now understood the reasons and consequences of those neutral ministers' opposition to the retrial, so naturally she had to go back and think about how to break the deadlock.
However, she never expected that Jiang Liuyun was still standing outside the Lin family's door.
Even if you want to pretend to be affectionate, you have already acted this out, right?
She got off the carriage, holding up her skirt, and walked inside without wanting to talk to Jiang Liuyun.
"Lin Zhiqing!"
Before she stepped into the door, Jiang Liuyun called her.
This time, Jiang Liuyun didn't call Qing'er, but called her full name.
Lin Zhiqing's lips curled up, and she was in a very happy mood, because she knew that this was not just a matter of name.
It seems that the trap she set up against the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion did work. At least now, it has torn off the mask on Jiang Liuyun's face.
But even so, she had no intention of turning back.
But Jiang Liuyun spoke again:
"Lin Zhiqing, I didn't want things to develop to this point, but you should never, ever touch Mole Mother."
Hearing this, Lin Zhiqing slowly turned around and said, "Prince Jiang, you also feel that you are being unreasonable, so you lowered your voice, right?"
"Aren't the words you said mine? You should never, ever touch Aunt Mu."
Mentioning Aunt Mu, Jiang Liuyun frowned: "Is it worth it for you to target me like this, just a slave?"
"Asshole." Lin Zhiqing couldn't help but curse:
"So, what about Mole Lady's life? It's life, but Aunt Mu's life isn't life, right?"
"You've repeatedly provoked me, and now you're here to provoke me. Do you really think I have no other options?"
"Reverse scale?" Jiang Liuyun chuckled: "Besides Aunt Mu, what else is your reverse scale? Betrayal?"
Lin Zhiqing frowned slightly, feeling that there seemed to be a hint of sarcasm in Jiang Liuyun's expression, but he didn't know where the sarcasm came from.
Although she was confused, her expression remained unchanged:
"Betrayal? In the entire Shengjing City, apart from Prince Jiang, it seems that no one else is more suitable for this word."
"Heh." Jiang Liuyun still had a smile on his face: "Lin Zhiqing, you are too confident."
"Even if you're smart, it doesn't matter. If I fool you once, you'll be fooled a second and third time by others."
"I told you a long time ago that the backyard of the Zhenyuan Marquis's Mansion is the place you should go."
"Have you forgotten all about the bullying the Lin family did to you? And Lu Huai, you've never thought about why he helped you investigate Lin Yangyang in the first place, right?"
"Young Master, the master is back and he ordered me to invite you back to the mansion." Jiang Liuyun was interrupted by the guard before he could finish his words.
He put away the smile on his face, looked at Lin Zhiqing deeply with a very sarcastic look, and then turned and left.
Lin Zhiqing stared at Jiang Liuyun's back for a while, until the carriage of Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion drove away, then he walked into the gate.
However, her mood at this moment was no longer as relaxed and happy as it was at the beginning.
Instead, there is a sense of unease.
This feeling was not unfamiliar. The night when Lin Zhiqing realized that there was something wrong with Jiang Liuyun, he also felt uneasy.
However, this uneasiness was obviously more intense than the previous one.
Thinking back to the unclear words Jiang Liuyun had just said, Lin Zhiqing's steps became very heavy.
As she was walking, she suddenly stopped.
Chao Yan was puzzled: "Miss, what's wrong?"
Lin Zhiqing took a deep breath and said, "Go find the Minister of Rites and ask him what happened during the morning court session today."
Chaoyan was stunned. Although she didn't know why her young lady didn't wait for news from Mr. Lu, she still nodded quickly: "Yes, young lady."
Hearing Chao Yan's footsteps getting farther and farther away, Lin Zhiqing suddenly covered his heart.
…
Half an hour later.
Lu Huai's carriage stopped at the gate of the Lin family, with a smile on his lips.
After the announcement, it was Asagao who came out to lead the way.
When she saw Lu Huai, Chao Yan's expression became serious, not as smiling as usual.
Noticing this, Lu Huai frowned slightly, and immediately asked to confirm whether something had happened to Lin Zhiqing.
But Asagao pursed her lips and said nothing.
When she reached the gate of Shuqing Pavilion, she stopped, stepped aside, and said "please" stiffly.
Lu Huai had already noticed something was wrong and stepped into the yard.
He soon saw Lin Zhiqing.
Lin Zhiqing also saw him.
When their eyes met, he clearly felt the alienation and strangeness on Lin Zhiqing's face.
Without waiting for Lu Huai to speak, Lin Zhiqing smiled slightly:
"Master Lu, I am sorry for not welcoming you. I hope you will not blame me."
She was clearly smiling, but the coldness in her words and eyes could not be hidden at all.
Lu Huai's heart sank: "A Qing..."
Lin Zhiqing interrupted him directly: "Master Lu, my name is Lin Zhiqing. I heard that the next Minister of Revenue is you, Master. Congratulations on your promotion."
"I hope that Your Excellency will show mercy to me, considering that my Lin family has made great contributions to your advancement."
