The reborn sweet girl always wants to escape, but the abstinent prince hugs her and coaxes her!

Mu Rong could tell at a glance what Mrs. Lin was thinking. Seeing her barely visible trembling, he nodded and said, "I am here to visit the Lord of Pingan County."

After saying that, he helped Xu Rongrong sit down in the main seat, while he himself sat next to Xu Rongrong without saying a word.

Upon seeing this, Mrs. Lin looked up at Xu Rongrong who was sitting in the seat: "This must be the Lord of Pingan County. This is the first time I have seen him."

A smile appeared on her pale face, showing kindness.

This is very different from the impression given by Lin Jiaoyue. There is neither the arrogant and arrogant attitude of the family, nor the inherent scornful attitude of the elders towards the younger ones. It is like an elder next door looking at a younger person whom he has never met with a smile. He can't help but feel People feel good.

Xu Rongrong then stood up and saluted: "Ping An has met Mrs. Lin."

Mrs. Lin is a first-class imperial concubine, so she should receive this gift, but she stood up to avoid it, stretched out her hand to pull Xu Rongrong, and said with a smile: "Although the county master is young, his demeanor is stable. No wonder your majesty likes him so much. It's a pity that I can't do it when I receive the title." You can’t see the magistrate’s grace here.”

As she spoke, the nanny behind her came forward holding a gift box.

Mrs. Lin took the gift box and handed it to Xu Rongrong: "I heard a few days ago that you were frightened and fell ill in the winter. I have nothing to offer. Fortunately, there is a thousand-year-old mountain ginseng hidden in the Chu family. I hope I can use it to help you." You're shocked."

Hearing this, Xu Rongrong refused repeatedly: "Ping An is ashamed to take such a precious supplement."

"The county master's illness was deeply caused by the two evil deeds in my family. I didn't raise my children well, so naturally I should apologize for them." Mrs. Lin said so straightforwardly that Xu Rongrong was caught off guard for a moment.

She frowned: "What does Mrs. Lin mean by this?"

Mrs. Lin showed a sad look: "Sister Jiao has been spoiled by us. We have only taught her chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and art of war since she was a child, but we have not allowed her to act arbitrarily. It is precisely because of this that she has been implicated in the county. Lord, now her appearance is completely ruined, Brother Ce is like a useless person, and he has suffered the consequences. As a mother, I failed to educate my children well, which is derelict in my duty; it is immoral to cause innocent people to suffer."

"I, Mrs. Lin Chu, have neglected my duty and have been immoral. Naturally, I have to come to apologize to the county lord and the marquis." As she said this, she lowered her head and bowed.

Xu Rongrong hurriedly reached out to support her: "Madam, you don't have to be like this."

Mrs. Lin was so frank and sincerely apologetic. Xu Rongrong and Mu Rong looked at each other and said slowly: "This matter is a grudge between Ping An and Miss Lin and has nothing to do with Mrs. Lin. Miss Lin has repeatedly harmed me and my family." The people around me, if we weren't lucky, would have been withered bones long ago. The grudges and grudges here can't be dissipated by my wife with a thousand-year-old wild ginseng or a word or two. Now that she was murdered and disfigured, she still wants to blame me. , and it is absolutely impossible to..."

"The county master misunderstood me." Before Xu Rongrong finished speaking, Mrs. Lin said, "I am not apologizing this time just to ask the county master to save me. I have scars that cannot be cured by imperial doctors. How can I have the face to ask for help?" County Lord?"

Seeing her say this, Xu Rongrong was even more surprised: "What if I am not asking for medicine for Miss Lin? Madam is here today..."

Mrs. Lin's face was full of bitterness: "I have only made decisions for myself once in my life, but I made a big mistake. I am afraid that the Chu family will be implicated by me in the future. I only hope to have a good relationship with the county master and the Marquis today. If The Lin family really made a big mistake the other day, so please let them go for the sake of the Chu family's innocence."

She said it so solemnly that Xu Rongrong didn't know how to respond: "Madam, I have already said that although Ping An is a female family member, I have heard that the person your Majesty relies on the most in the court is Lin Shangshu. Even if there is something wrong, there is no reason for it. Your Majesty has decided, how can Ping An and Marquis He De decide the life and death of the Lin family?"

"The county master does not need to be modest." Mrs. Lin smiled faintly, "To put it bluntly, I have watched the Marquis grow up... When he was young, the Marquis was in the army and knew nothing about the dangers of the court. I know, but over the past year, I can feel that the Marquis is no longer as immature as he was when he was young. Now he has a calm and domineering look in every gesture... Furthermore, now that the prince has been deposed and the second prince has been overthrown, the third prince is about to return to the court with meritorious service. , in the new court situation, the Marquis will definitely be the mainstay at the top, so I naturally have to sacrifice my face to ask for him. "

Her words made Mu Rong subconsciously glance at Xu Rongrong beside him, fearing that she was aroused by Mrs. Lin's suspicion.

Fortunately, the girl did not become suspicious after hearing this. She just said warmly: "Even if it is as Madam said, what you just said was all for the sake of the Chu family. What about Mr. Lin and Miss Lin? You don't think about them?"

"They...have their father's protection." Mrs. Lin's lips curled up into a slight smile, "Whatever you sow will bear fruit. I'm afraid I can't do anything about it."

After saying that, she begged again: "I don't know what I want. Can the county master and the marquis agree to it?"

Xu Rongrong glanced at Mu Rong and saw that the other party had no expression, so he nodded: "Madam, don't worry, the Chu family has no grudges against us, so naturally they will not get involved casually."

Mrs. Lin seemed to be relieved when she heard this: "In that case, I would like to thank the county master and the marquis first."

The purpose of her trip had been achieved. Seeing that the sun was about to set, she stopped staying any longer and said goodbye.

Mrs. Lin sat in the sedan with her eyes closed. The swaying made her feel as if she had returned to the day of her wedding. In the blink of an eye, more than 20 years had passed.

At that time, her heart was filled with infinite longing, imagining how she could grow old together with the person she loved playing the piano and harp.

But the dream soon shattered. When she had just left her eldest son, she heard from her servants that Lin Zhihen had not had a good rest for several days, so regardless of her physical weakness, she stewed soup and sent it to the front yard. Unexpectedly, she saw Lin Zhihen. Zhihen was entangled with a woman. The woman was kneeling on the ground and begging for something. When they saw her coming, they were both shocked.

She was simple-minded and didn't think much about it, but after a moment of panic, Lin Zhihen deduced that the woman was a distant cousin who came to the capital to seek refuge with her relatives, and he was just a little servant now. How could he support her? At that time, she When he was officially in love with Lin Zhihen, he saw that he looked troubled and decided to keep the Qin woman behind.

But within a week, Qin's daughter left without saying goodbye, and she didn't take it to heart until she handed over her handkerchief and saw the body of Qin's daughter when she went out to play. She was so shocked that she returned home and wanted to tell Lin Zhihen, but she I saw him scolding his subordinates for not doing enough work and hiding Qin's daughter's body!

Only then did she realize that everything about her distant cousin and coming to seek refuge with her relatives were all lies!

Qin's daughter was not only Lin Zhihen's childhood sweetheart, but she was also engaged to him for life. In order to climb to a high position, he abandoned Qin's daughter and instead asked to marry him.

That day, she was extremely desperate...
