Chapter 223 Chaos
The maid felt a little panicked when she saw Lin like this.
The servants had always known Lin's methods and were afraid that she would kill them.
She just said tremblingly, "The eldest lady came here just now. Miss, the young lady mistook the eldest lady for her cousin and said some nonsense."
When she said this, she seemed to feel Lin's gaze stabbing at her like a knife, and she couldn't help but shudder.
"I covered the Second Miss's mouth in time, so she didn't say much."
After hearing what the maid said, Lin recalled He Yuyao's behavior just now. There was nothing unusual, so she thought no one would notice.
He looked down at He Yunyao who was crying in his arms and sighed in his heart.
Then he looked at the maid behind He Yunyao and said, "Take good care of your young lady. If this gets known to others, I will not let you and your family off."
His tone was full of viciousness.
Hearing Lin's words, the maid knelt down hurriedly and said, "Please rest assured, Madam, I will never tell anyone."
Lin looked at her again, and then left He Yunyao's yard with peace of mind.
Lin returned to the main house and sat alone in the inner room for a long time.
I didn't even realize it was getting dark, the house was already pitch black.
The maids serving outside knew that the Madam had been worried and anxious these past two days regarding the matter of Miss Lin, so they naturally did not dare to go forward to disturb her and could only wait outside.
After a long time, Lin suddenly came to his senses.
Looking at the dark room around me, I suddenly felt powerless.
She stood up, shrugged her shoulders, and tried to sober herself up. Then she opened the door and looked at the maid outside: "Is the master back?"
The maid hurried forward and bowed to Lin: "I'm back, Madam."
Then he asked Lin tentatively, "Madam, would you like to turn on the lamp?"
Lin shook her head: "Let's go to the old man's study."
When she arrived outside Lord He's study, Lin stopped, told the maid to wait outside, and then went into the study alone.
He Yong naturally knew that it was her who came. Without looking up, he asked softly, "Are you back? How is your sister-in-law?"
He Yong naturally knew about Lin Yin's affairs. When he heard that his wife was going back to her parents' home to accompany her sister-in-law, he was very supportive.
I didn't expect her to come back so soon.
It has to be said that He Yong really devoted himself to the Lin family.
No matter in the past, in order for her to get close to Pei, he gradually rose to power and made her his legal wife, allowing her to firmly occupy the position of the wife of the Minister of Works.
Even now, his whole mind is on Lin.
Although there were some concubines and maids in the backyard, they were only there to serve He Yong when Lin was not feeling well.
Lin looked at the husband in front of her. She had already made up her mind, but she didn't dare to speak again.
As if he had noticed her uneasiness, Lord He raised his head, put down the pen in his hand, and came in front of Lin.
He held her in his arms and gently stroked her shoulders: "I know you are sad."
Lin was shaking her head desperately, tears falling silently.
She was afraid, she was really afraid. She was afraid that her husband would give up on her because of this, and she was also afraid that her husband would give up on Yun Yao because of this.
He Yong felt even more distressed when he saw her like this.
He kissed her eyes gently, trying to kiss away her tears.
As they kissed, He Yong seemed to be a little emotional, but Lin didn't dare to do so. She pushed him away and muttered softly, "Master."
Then she knelt down and said, "Master, I have failed to teach my daughter well. Please punish me."
Lin's kneeling made He Yong stunned.
He helped her up and said, "You can say whatever you want. There's no need to be so polite. We have been married for so many years. Why should we be so polite?"
After hearing what He Yong said, Lin suddenly felt relieved and sat down with the help of He Yong.
"Master, my sister-in-law has gone to file a complaint with the Jingzhao Prefecture, and I heard that the Third Prince was also present, and he immediately promised my sister-in-law that he would clear her name."
"That's a good thing." He Yong didn't know the reason, so he naturally talked about the matter from the perspective of the victim.
Lin's voice suddenly lowered: "Master, is this related to Yun Yao?"
"It's related to Yun Yao? What does that mean?"
Lin then told He Yong about the matter in detail. When He Yong heard it, he was stunned.
He then reacted and swept all the cups and plates on the tea table to the ground.
He had a gloomy face and said nothing.
Lin was so frightened that she stood up and dared not speak.
The Lin and He residences are in a mess.
At this time, the palace was in chaos.
In the Jinxiu Palace, the Sixth Princess finally calmed down, and Shen Ning finally had the mind to think about the next things.
That evening she called a few maids to her side and discussed with them: "The second princess's wedding will be scheduled for next month."
Shen Ning said this and looked up at Yue Ran: "After all, it's not like your majesty cares that much about the princess, so it's fine as long as it's done."
"You should pay more attention to this matter and ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs." After all, this was Shen Ning's first time in charge of the princess's marriage, so he really didn't know much. "If there is anything you don't understand, just come and discuss it with me."
Yue Ran nodded, which was considered as her agreement.
Shen Ning was still worried and gave her a few words of advice: "Remember to pay more attention. No matter what, the Second Princess is still your Majesty's daughter."
"The royal family's reputation cannot be lost."
Seeing Yue Ran confirmed, Shen Ning turned to look at Bai Ling: "How is the Sixth Princess these two days?"
Bai Ling's manners were no worse than Yue Ran's. She bowed quietly, stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the Sixth Princess has been very quiet these past two days, and has eaten on time. I haven't heard the maidservants say anything wrong with her."
“Even started reading.”
This was naturally Bai Ling's idea.
If she wanted to regain her freedom in the palace, the first step was to gain the Queen's trust.
Moreover, Bai Ling also repeatedly reminded the Sixth Princess not to get involved in any conspiracy in the future, and just have fun happily in the palace.
In the past, Concubine De loved the Sixth Princess the most. Now that the Concubine is gone, Bai Zhi decided to take good care of the Sixth Princess on behalf of the Concubine.
After hearing what Bai Ling said, Shen Ning also breathed a sigh of relief.
She was really scared by the Sixth Princess's appearance a few days ago.
She originally thought that all children were very well behaved, like Lu Xingwan, but she never expected that there would be such an evil child like the Sixth Princess in the world.
"In this case, you will be fully responsible for the Sixth Princess' affairs from now on."
After hearing such good news, Shen Ning relaxed for the first time. She joked with the maids, "Look at our Bai Ling. She actually has a way of dealing with children!"
"Your children will be very afraid of you in the future."
"My Queen~" Bai Ling acted coy and shy, acting like a real little girl.
But Yunlan at this time felt a little lost.
