Reborn as the Savior of a Short-lived Father and Son
Chapter 162: I Want to See the Emperor Now
Old Liu's wife gave a few half-truthful explanations, and Mrs. Wang did not doubt it, but a woman who had just given birth was very soft-hearted, and she could not bear to see her child suffer.
So he cursed a few times, "God damn it, people like this are not worthy of being parents. They have too many girls and don't want to raise them, but they can't control their own flesh. Old Liu didn't scold them. If he didn't scold them, I would be so frustrated that I would die."
"I've scolded you." Lao Liu's wife smiled and pleaded, "This child is pitiful. Can you see if you can let her help feed the baby here? Lao Liu and I will buy some food and come over. When she's older and can eat, I'll..."
Sister Wang was a straightforward person. She interrupted her without her having to finish her words, "Why are you being so polite to me? Besides, I feed my one child and my two children as well. What's wrong with that?"
After that, she even pulled Old Madam Liu over and said a few jokes. Old Madam Liu blushed and scolded her, "You are already a mother, but you are still not serious."
"Really? I'm not lying to you. One child really can't finish all the food. If you don't bring this little guy here, it will be a waste for me."
Now that the child’s food supply is solved, the couple has finally resolved a major concern.
Here, the couple consulted Sister Wang on some issues regarding raising children, and went to the street to help the child buy some clothes. On the other side, Gu Qinghe and Shao Wei had also arrived in the capital.
The child found a good home, and Gu Qinghe was very happy all the way back.
Even though he heard some bad news right after arriving at the General's Mansion, Gu Qinghe remained calm and composed.
As soon as she entered the door, the doorman told Gu Qinghe that Shao Xingjian's people came today and asked her to go to the Dali Temple.
Although Shao Xingjian didn't say it directly, Gu Qinghe knew very well that Mrs. Lin must be in poor condition. Otherwise, Shao Xingjian would not have come to see her.
Shao Wei accompanied her to the Dali Temple. Shao Xingjian must have informed her in advance, so the servants took her directly to the place where Madam Lin was being kept.
Shao Xingjian was talking to the imperial physician outside. The imperial physician stroked his beard and frowned, "It's not a big problem, but Madam Lin is weak and can't stand such a thing. If it happens again, even the Golden Immortal will be of no use."
Hearing this, Shao Xingjian nodded, "I understand."
He asked someone to send the old doctor back. After the doctor walked away, Gu Qinghe and Shao Wei stepped forward and asked, "What happened?"
"Mrs. Lin has been poisoned."
Gu Qinghe’s first reaction was that it was impossible. Shao Xingjian had already protected the people, and it was impossible for outsiders to come into contact with Mrs. Lin.
In the current situation, no one would dare to act rashly unless they were absolutely sure that they could eliminate Mrs. Lin in one strike.
It was originally a fictitious thing, but with this move, even if it was fake, it will become true.
In addition, Shao Xingjian had a personality that looked down on everyone, so if he noticed anything, it would be trouble that could not be avoided.
After meeting Shao Xingjian, her guess was further confirmed. Shao Xingjian was not shocked by Mrs. Lin's poisoning.
Instead, he was very calm. "It must be the poison that had been hidden in her body for a long time. The amount she took was not lethal. In addition, the time for the servants to deliver her food was calculated accurately. It was discovered in time, so it's nothing serious."
Although this move was risky, the chances of success were high. In this way, the truth or falsehood of the things she originally wanted to sue was still in doubt, but with this poisoning, regardless of whether the person was hurt or not, the King of Wu was already at the center of public attention.
If what Mrs. Lin said was all false, why would someone want to poison her?
It's nothing more than wanting to kill and silence the witnesses.
Although Gu Qinghe had no good feelings towards Mrs. Lin and did not have much sympathy for her, he could not help but sigh at this moment.
She was just moved by a mother's determination to avenge her child.
The things that Gu Qinghe asked Qi Mingyue to leave behind failed to motivate Lin Shiqiang, but instead motivated Mrs. Lin.
Lin Shiqiang has a lot of things to consider. Of course he can't not be sad about his son's death, but he needs to consider the entire Lin family, whether it's the industry or the family. He can't sacrifice it all for Lin Cong.
He has tried his best these days.
"I have submitted all the evidence of Madam Lin. I heard that the old lady of the Qi family and Princess Wu also quietly entered the palace last night. I think it was also for this matter."
Qi Mingyue's movements were indeed fast.
At the beginning, Gu Qinghe asked Qi Mingyue to do some minor things on Lin Cong's body. Mrs. Lin went to hug Lin Cong's body and cry every day. Naturally, she soon discovered these things, and became more convinced that her son was murdered.
Not long ago, she heard Lin Shiqiang talking to someone again, talking about how King Wu took the opportunity to imprison Chen Fanzhi's wife. Mrs. Lin was extremely angry.
Since she discovered these things, Mrs. Lin began to look for it deliberately, and found the letter that King Wu wrote to Lin Shiqiang in Lin Shiqiang's study. The letter warned Lin Shiqiang to discipline Lin Cong properly, and that talking nonsense outside might bring him trouble.
Lin Cong would indeed talk nonsense when he was drunk, and he would say all sorts of things.
At this point, what could Mrs. Lin not understand? King Wu believed that what Lin Cong said when he was drunk outside had brought him trouble and danger, and after reminding Lin Shiqiang to no avail, he simply killed him.
The dead always keep their mouths shut.
Lin Cong's death was also a lesson and reminder to the Lin family that some things should not be said and should be kept to oneself, otherwise it will only bring about fatal disaster.
Mrs. Lin was not afraid of any fatal disaster. She only cared about her son. She didn't care whether he was from the Lin family or not. She and her husband had been estranged in spirit for so many years. The love they had when they were young seemed like a joke now.
There is no emotion anymore.
She regarded her son as her only hope. She was afraid of pain and death on a normal day, but now she was not afraid of anything.
Before the conversation between the few people was over, the servant hurriedly came to report, "Sir, Madam Lin wants to see you."
When Shao Xingjian came over, Madam Lin's face was still pale, but her eyes were particularly bright. She said to Shao Xingjian, "Master Shao, you can see this. These people want to kill me. They are afraid that I will tell the truth and expose their secrets, so they can't wait to kill me and silence me. I want to see the emperor now and tell the injustice of my son and my Lin family."
"Otherwise, I might be killed by these people one day."
Shao Xingjian shook his head. "Not now. I have already submitted all the evidence you said. If His Majesty wants to see you, he will order you to come to the palace. You just need to wait patiently."
"I can't wait any longer. Those beasts who killed my son are still alive and well. As long as I wait, they will be free and happy for a day."
