"Dead." Shangguan Ru glanced at him indifferently and said in a cold voice.
"What? Dead?"
"Yes, I will bury it in the yard." Shangguan Ru said.
When Lin Songbai heard this, he was stunned, then turned around and ran out of the house. Sure enough, he saw traces of digging in the small flower bed in front of the house.
He stared fixedly at the place where the grass had turned over.
I couldn't come back to my senses for a long time.
He actually liked his wife very much. She was gentle and docile, obeyed him in everything, and took good care of him.
But he was not so lucky, and he married this wife with a purpose.
Since the Lin family got on board Shangguan Hongzhe's ship, they had to do things according to his wishes. Otherwise, it would be impossible for the Lin family to achieve their goals smoothly.
He squatted down sadly and put his head in his hands to control his sadness.
In the room, You asked the maid to quickly dress up Shangguan Ru.
But the marks on her neck were too obvious to be hidden.
Only then did You see the silk ribbon still hanging on the beam, and her heart began to beat wildly.
She actually tried to commit suicide!
He patted his chest a few times.
Fortunately, the silk ribbon couldn't support the daughter-in-law's body and broke.
Otherwise, I don’t know how to explain to the eldest son of the palace today.
In the main hall, Lin Yuanda was alone with Shangguan Ziqi.
No one spoke, and they all drank tea in tacit understanding.
Everyone had a blank expression on their face.
Lin Yuanda moved his butt nervously from time to time.
"Master Lin, I heard that your family is very big in the silk business?" Shangguan Ziqi suddenly asked.
Lin Yuanda was so shocked that he almost dropped the teacup in his hand.
"Thanks to Prince Rong's Mansion, I can support my whole family." Lin Yuanda immediately replied with a smile.
"Young Master's third uncle has served as the magistrate here for two terms, which is 20 years. He has provided great convenience to your Lin family, right?" Shangguan Ziqi asked very directly.
"Thanks to Lord Shangguan for his high regard for me." Lin Yuanda answered vaguely, not daring to say anything specific.
"How much of the money you earned did you give to Master Yu's third uncle?" Shangguan Ziqi asked more directly.
This question made Lin Yuanda suddenly look up at Shangguan Ziqi.
Their eyes met, and both wanted to see something from each other's eyes.
But Shangguan Ziqi only half-closed his eyes.
And Lin Yuanda is also a veteran on the field.
No one backed down.
"Haha, the eldest master is really a smart guy." Lin Yuanda suddenly laughed.
No one is a fool. Everyone knows what this question means without being explained.
But he did not give a specific number truthfully.
Shangguan Ziqi didn't ask any more questions.
At this moment, the sound of footsteps of many people were heard outside the main hall.
Then a group of people came in together.
You was stunned when she saw two people sitting in the main seat.
The eldest son of the palace is indeed very impressive.
He sat firmly in the main seat and just watched them come in indifferently.
"Madam, come quickly, meet the eldest master Shangguan and the eldest young master's wife." Lin Yuanda immediately stood up and introduced them to You.
Yu led the people in and they all greeted the two of them.
At this time Yu Yuanzheng stood up, glanced at everyone, and then deliberately fixed his gaze on Shangguan Ru.
"Sister Ru?"
"Sister-in-law!" Shangguan Ru's cry with a tearful tone made those who heard it feel sad.
Yu Yuanzheng walked forward and hugged the person.
"We have all inquired about it. Your sister has suffered. We are here today to support you. Don't be sad. Tell us what you think. Your brother and I will definitely fulfill your wish." Yu Yuanzheng's words startled the Lin family.
The Lin family immediately knew that today would not end well.
"Master Lin, the daughter of my Shangguan family was able to marry into your Lin family because of great luck. However, you, the Lin family, do not know how to cherish her. Instead, you treat her harshly with false charges. You must give an explanation today." Shangguan Ziqi said coldly.
"Brother, I want to go back to the palace." Shangguan Ru made her request without thinking.
She shouldn't have gotten married. She thinks her parents' home is better.
At least no one in her mother's family bullied her. Although her mother was very strict with her, she never beat or scolded her, nor did she make her suffer like the Lin family did.
Her mother also earnestly taught her to be a respectful and kind woman, and said that only a respectful woman could be welcomed by her husband's family.
As a result, because of her kindness, she rescued a bookworm in distress, and ended up ruining her own life.
She is not stupid, she was just taught too well by her mother.
"If you want to go back to the palace, you will have to be divorced." After hearing Shangguan Ru's words, You said coldly without any human touch.
A divorced woman is too ashamed to see anyone.
"Sister, you'd better think about it carefully. You are an impure woman. If you are divorced again, you will have no way to survive." The concubine Wu also jumped out to speak.
Although she is a concubine, she is no different from the principal wife.
She didn't want Shangguan Ru to leave the Lin Mansion.
So what if she is a young lady from Prince Rong's Mansion? She is still under her feet, and she enjoys the pleasure of bullying her.
She wanted to have such a young lady who was once high and mighty to be bullied and suppressed by her for a long time and for her to admire.
Before Yu Yuanzheng sat back in her chair, he raised his hand and slapped her in the face.
And he didn't explain anything.
He also led Shangguan Ru to sit next to him so that he could take action.
"You..." Mrs. Wu covered her face and glared at Yu Yuanzheng.
Yu Yuanzheng didn't even bother to look at her.
She was a second wife in the small Lin family, but she thought she was the best because she was in charge of the Lin family's finances.
She has never seen a truly powerful family, so does she think everyone will look up to her?
Yu Yuanzheng has been married into the palace for more than two years, and her aura is so intimidating that it makes people tremble with fear.
"You get out." You was a bit sensible. Seeing Yu Yuanzheng hitting someone without even an explanation, she knew that Wu had offended someone with her words, so she immediately asked Wu to get out.
"Master Lin, do you want to discuss business in front of so many servants?" Shangguan Ziqi glanced in the hall and saw no less than ten servants standing there.
That look made their hearts tremble.
Lin Yuanda waved his hand, and the servants filed out.
"My Shangguan family's young lady is well-educated, kind-hearted, and abides by her duties. But your Lin family treats her so harshly. Since Sister Ru wants to return to the palace, let's get a divorce." Shangguan Ziqi made a direct request.
"No. She can't leave the Lin family." Lin Yuanda objected immediately without thinking.
"Oh? Why?" Shangguan Ziqi narrowed his eyes and asked in a cold voice.
"She is not a faithful wife and has an affair with someone.
My Lin family is kind and has not divorced her for more than three years, just for the sake of the Shangguan family's face.
We just don't want to make things too extreme and leave her with no way to survive.
Being divorced or divorced is an unwise move that pushes her to the brink of death."
Lin Yuanda spoke confidently and righteously.
"Master Lin, are you sure you are telling the truth?" Shangguan Ziqi was so angry that he almost laughed.
He is so thick-skinned that he is not afraid of slipping his tongue when speaking.
"Sister Ru, after the divorce, are you willing to go back to the palace with us?" Yu Yuanzheng asked softly.
"Sister-in-law, I want to go back. I can't stay in the Lin family for another day. If I stay any longer, I will die here. I am innocent and I have never had any affair with anyone." Shangguan Ru said anxiously.
She died once last night, and now she is not afraid of anything as long as her daughter is fine.
For the sake of her daughter's future, she couldn't continue to live and cheat with the Lin family.
Even being a commoner is better than being a member of the Lin family.
Even the servants of the Lin family dared to say that her daughter was an adulteress.
"Master Lin, you heard it. Sister Ru can't stay here for even another day." Yu Yuanzheng looked at Lin Yuanda with amusement.
"Master Lin, the task my third uncle has assigned to you is to find a way to kill Sister Ru, and do it in a way that no one can find any evidence against her. Is what Master Yu said right?" Shangguan Ziqi asked dimly.
He didn't have the energy to deal with the Lin family.
His identity is something that the Lin family cannot compete with.
This question left Lin Yuanda and his family of three dumbfounded.
Shangguan Ru was even more incredulous: How is this possible? That's her biological father.
