Zhao Lin said, "Then I will not hesitate to call you elder."
Zhu Zhongyan laughed heartily and pointed at Zhao Lin: "If you enter the palace, there will be no place for our family."
Zhao Lin smiled and said, "I mean this sincerely. I know the bad things I've done, and I understand the difficulties my father-in-law faces. No one else can do better than my father-in-law. Even if my father-in-law were to go up there, it would be the same."
Hearing Zhao Lin say such words, Zhu Zhongyan was silent for a moment and sighed: "This is the first time someone has mentioned our difficulties. Let me ask you, the affair between Zhao Chenhan and Rong Fei only requires a reminder, why is it so complicated?"
Zhao Lin said: "I just want to see some people's attitudes."
Zhu Zhongyan frowned: "Who are they?"
Zhao Lin smiled and said, "You don't need to know, sir."
Zhu Zhongyan knew after a brief thought: "Could it be the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion?"
Zhao Lin was surprised and said, "Sure enough, I can't hide it from my father-in-law."
Zhu Zhongyan said, "After you were imprisoned, only four people came to see you. Not to mention the Princess and Bai Shiyuan, nor Zhao Chenhan, but the Princess of Yu actually came. Even if the Prince of Yu wanted to save you and win you over, there would be no need for the Princess of Yu to come, unless there were other reasons. Could it be..."
Zhu Zhongyan looked Zhao Lin up and down. "The Marquis of Zhenbei's biological son was lost in his youth. His wife missed him so much that she nearly died young. So she brought Zhao Chenhan back home to relieve her longing. Your age matches. Could you be the lost child?"
Zhao Lin said admiringly, "As expected of the Grand Chamberlain, the powerful and influential Zhu Qiansui, he was able to connect the dots based on just this little clue. Yes, this body of mine is Zhao Jingzhou's son."
"What do you mean?" Zhu Zhongyan asked.
Zhao Lin said: "The previous Zhao Lin is dead. The current Zhao Lin has nothing to do with the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion."
Zhu Zhongyan shook his head: "You are too impulsive. If you can use the power of the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion, it will definitely be better than it is now."
Zhao Lin laughed. "Just now you were praising your father-in-law for his intelligence. Why are you so confused now? If Zhao Jingzhou and his wife had any affection for their own son, this wouldn't have happened, right?"
Zhu Zhongyan suddenly realized.
All the past events have shown that in the eyes of Zhao Jingzhou and his wife, Zhao Chenhan, their adopted son, is definitely more important than their biological son.
Otherwise, in terms of talent and ability, Zhao Lin is far better than Zhao Chenhan, so why don’t they come forward to claim him?
"So Zhao Chenhan colluded with Concubine Rong just to kill you?" Zhu Zhongyan said in disbelief.
Zhao Lin laughed and said, "You can't believe it, right? I didn't expect him to be so stupid as to do such a thing."
"A bastard is a bastard, no way he can compare to a true noble family." Zhu Zhongyan shook his head. "Didn't Zhao Chenhan consider that if this matter were to leak, the entire Zhenbei Marquisate would be buried with it?"
Zhao Lin said, "Of course he thought about it and knew the consequences, but he still did it. Do you know why?"
"Because if he doesn't kill you, once your identity is revealed in the future, he will have no place to stand. So even if he has to drag everyone down with him, he must kill you first." Zhu Zhongyan said with a gloomy face.
He hated this kind of people the most.
It will do more harm than good and will kill everyone.
Zhao Lin sighed, "See, this is why I've been staring at him."
Zhu Zhongyan nodded and said, "Does Zhao Jingzhou know about this?"
"Maybe he knows, maybe he doesn't, who knows?" Zhao Lin said, "But we have to act as if we do. It's better to be safe than sorry."
Zhu Zhongyan's face was solemn.
The northern battlefield relies entirely on Zhao Jingzhou for support. Once he has second thoughts, the entire Daqi will be in danger.
"So your real target has never been Zhao Chenhan, but Zhao Jingzhou."
Zhu Zhongyan stared at Zhao Lin: "You are too presumptuous. Do you know what the consequences will be if Zhao Jingzhou is dissatisfied?"
Zhao Lin said calmly, "If Zhao Chenhan were punished for doing something like this, he would be dissatisfied. This shows that he doesn't care about His Majesty."
hiss……
Zhu Zhongyan gasped and stared at Zhao Lin. Seeing Zhao Lin's calm expression and his fearless gaze meeting his, he sighed, "Zhao Jingzhou made a mistake, a terrible mistake. If he had chosen you, you wouldn't have become a duke or even the King of Zhenbei in the future."
Zhao Lin smiled slightly: "I am just a king. As long as I am loyal to His Majesty, will His Majesty treat me unfairly?"
Zhu Zhongyan thought for a moment and laughed: "You are much smarter than Zhao Jingzhou."
Zhao Lin smiled.
Zhao Lin was about to die, but the Zhenbei Marquisate remained indifferent.
Later, when Zhao Lin attacked the Marquis of Zhenbei's Mansion, no one could say anything.
Nowadays, everything must be done with a legitimate reason. Otherwise, when Zhao Lin attacks the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion in the future, if they are shameless enough to use their family as an excuse, Zhao Lin will have something to refute.
The main purpose is to make the dead soul completely give up!
Otherwise, as Zhu Zhongyan said, there is no need to make so much trouble for just an affair. It would be enough to catch Zhao Chenhan and Rong Fei in bed.
"Let me ask you one more question. What is the situation between you and the Zhenbei Marquisate? Why does Zhao Jingzhou favor his adopted son and ignore you, his biological son?" Zhu Zhongyan said.
Zhao Lin smiled and said, "Sir, do you still remember the two rumors from before?"
Zhu Zhongyan thought for a moment and said, "Is Zhao Chenhan the son of Zhao Jingzhou's lover?"
"Yes." Zhao Lin nodded and said, "Although there is no evidence, I am 80% sure that Zhao Chenhan is the son of Zhao Jingzhou and his lover. Since they are all his sons, there is naturally no difference between biological sons and adopted sons."
"I see. It seems our Lord Zhao is also nostalgic," Zhu Zhongyan said sarcastically. "But it is said that the Marquis' wife is very fond of Zhao Chenhan."
