Chapter 353 Kneel down and kowtow to Zhao Yi
Mrs. Lin's attention was diverted and she put down the teacup in her hand.
"Nian'er, your father died tragically at the hands of Prince Guangling. This vengeance must be avenged." The faint smile on Madam Lin's face faded, and her cloudy eyes grew darker. "Prince Guangling's methods are ruthless. Even if we try to keep things quiet, they will kill us all."
"The murder of my father is irreconcilable and must be avenged." Lin Qinian patted his chest and said confidently, "My grandson will definitely see to it."
When Mrs. Lin heard what Lin Qinian said, she was relieved and said, "Grandma believes you can handle this matter well."
When Lin Yi was alive, he didn't let Lin Qinian go through too much, so he didn't become very cunning.
Now that Lin Yi has passed away, the pillar of the family has fallen, and the burden has fallen on Lin Qinian's shoulders. With his ability, he is currently unable to carry the burden.
She thought that while she was still in charge, she would train Lin Qinian and hone his abilities.
It's just a gift to the Left Vice Minister of Rites, there's nothing wrong with that.
Lin Qinian heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Old Madam Lin did not scold him for not knowing the rules. He hooked out the jade pendant that had fallen into the teacup with his index finger, lifted up a piece of his robe, wrapped it around the pendant to wipe off the water stains, and put it around his neck.
Old Lady Lin looked at the jade pendant that Lin Qinian wore around his neck. It was carved in the shape of a little donkey from black jade. The material was well chosen, with white where it should be white and black where it should be black, making it look lifelike.
Lin Qinian always carried it in his arms. He lost it on New Year's Day last year. He mobilized a large number of people to search the house upside down, and finally found it around the neck of his own pet.
This pet is a donkey raised by Lin Qinian, which he rides wherever he goes. This jade pendant is carved in the shape of a donkey.
Thinking of this donkey, Mrs. Lin was filled with helplessness.
Because Lin Qinian gave it a name, the name is "Si Da Ye".
Lin Qi'nan has two younger brothers, so the donkey is the fourth in line and is considered a member of the family.
That would be fine, but calling him Fourth Uncle is disruptive.
She said wearily, "Go back and prepare the gifts. Put some thought into it."
Lin Qinian and Mrs. Lin responded and left Corning Court together.
As soon as they walked out of the yard, Madam Lin slowed down her pace and straightened Lin Qinian's wrinkled sleeves: "Nian'er, when it comes to giving gifts, you must follow the old lady's instructions and don't follow your own ideas."
Lin Qinian played with the little donkey on his chest and said, "Mom, when have I ever disobeyed Grandma? Besides, I know the seriousness of the matter and will never act rashly according to my own will."
After receiving Lin Qinian's assurance, Mrs. Lin was reluctantly relieved. She went to the warehouse herself to pick out some precious jades and calligraphy and paintings by famous artists, put them in a box, and asked someone to send them to Lin Qinian's yard.
When Lin Qinian saw the box that was delivered, he personally picked up a pen and wrote a visiting card.
Just as he had started, he suddenly had an idea.
Zhao Yi was in charge of the Ministry of Rites and could execute first and report later.
The Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Rites holds real power and can indeed make things difficult for Zhao Yi.
If the Left Vice Minister of Rites made Zhao Yi angry and Zhao Yi chopped off the man's head, wouldn't his gift be in vain?
Lin Qinian judges others by his own standards. If he were in power, he would chop up anyone who dared to provoke him.
The Left Vice Minister of Rites is not a fool, he would certainly have thought of this.
I will never go along with them.
Their plan to form an alliance with the Left Vice Minister of Rites was no longer feasible.
Now if we want to deal with Zhao Yi, we have to find another way.
Lin Qinian stared at the wooden box on the table, walked around the table, and suddenly an idea came to his mind.
He planned to meet Zhao Yi in person to find out more about Zhao Yi's background.
Lin Qinian is a man of impetuous temperament. Whatever he thinks of, he wants to do it immediately.
He took out the jade and calligraphy and paintings from the box, rummaged through the drawers and took out an object to put in, locked it specially, and went out with the wooden box.
The personal servant quickly brought a donkey and carried Lin Qinian slowly towards the Guangling Palace.
The Guangling Prince's Palace was located in Tongxin Lane, and this area was where the court officials lived.
When Lin Qinian came here on a donkey, carrying the wooden box, he alarmed the people in the official residence, and they all sent servants to inquire about the situation.
Lin Qinian was not displeased by this grand occasion, but rather felt very pleased, hoping that as many people as possible would come to watch the fun.
At this time, a carriage brushed past Lin Qinian and slowly stopped at the gate of Guangling Palace.
Lin Qinian saw Zhao Yi getting out of the carriage and was about to go to the mansion.
He had originally intended to embarrass Zhao Yi, and now the timing was perfect, so he quickly called Zhao Yi: "Hey, wait a minute."
Hearing the voice, Zhao Yi turned his head to look at Lin Qinian, frowned slightly, and did not intend to pay attention to him.
Lin Qinian seemed to see through Zhao Yi's thoughts, and without waiting for the donkey to stop, he quickly jumped off the donkey's back.
There was a thin layer of ice on the ground, which was wet and slippery.
His foot slipped and he was about to fall to the ground, so he twisted his waist to try to steady himself.
The donkey snorted and kicked him in the knee with its hoof.
Lin Qinian knelt down in front of Zhao Yi.
With a "bang", his forehead hit the wooden box hard.
