Tragic death and rebirth, the daughter of a general poisoned the government and the country

Lin Qingrou was beaten and carried away, and the Second Prince and Nan Huaishuo left the table in anger one after another.

It undoubtedly added spice to people's discussions at the lively banquet.

"Have you heard that the fifth prince has also left? Isn't he the closest to the crown prince on weekdays? Why did he leave the wedding banquet so early?"

"I heard it's related to the second young lady of the general's mansion. I just saw the two of them chatting very enthusiastically..."

"Is this true? Wasn't Miss Lin knocked unconscious by Concubine Hu just now because she was trying to seduce the Second Prince?"

"Chaotic, the circles up there are really chaotic..."

A figure in a navy blue robe slowly approached, and asked in a gloomy and cold manner, "Who did you say was knocked unconscious by Concubine Hu?"

……

It was past noon, and as the sun slowly set, the banquet was gradually coming to an end.

Lin Yushu was chatting with Ye Wanling at the moment, and next to them stood a figure like a door god.

When he was out, Ye Huanzhi always maintained the image of a modest scholar. He no longer jumped up and down like he did in the mansion of Duke Qing, but looked quite elegant and graceful.

"Why didn't Second Cousin join First Cousin and his friends to socialize with the important officials in the court, but instead stayed with us two young ladies to chat?"

Lin Yushu endured for a long time and finally asked the door god.

"My little cousin, you don't understand. I have the character of a scholar. I disdain to be tainted by the filthy atmosphere of the court..."

"I'll tell my uncle and father when I get home."

Ye Wanling's words made Ye Huanzhi shut his mouth immediately. He turned sideways and took two steps with a resentful look on his face.

As if to say, I am not guarding you now.

Ye Wanling was too lazy to pay attention to him. She just held Lin Yushu's hand and chattered happily.

"During the last Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet, my mother and I were all on the second floor of the Star Observatory, so I never had a chance to chat with you."

"After the Queen Mother got into trouble, we heard that you were involved. Mother and aunt almost rushed directly to the third floor..."

As Lin Yushu listened to Ye Wanling's words, she felt a warm current flowing slowly in her chest. Her grandparents always treated her so sincerely.

As they were chatting, a dark blue figure suddenly appeared behind Lin Yushu.

Ye Wanling, who was speaking, was suddenly stunned, and looked at the man who was approaching silently in front of her with some confusion.

Lin Yushu noticed something and slowly turned around. After seeing who was coming, she was not surprised.

"Second brother."

Lin Jiang looked at Lin Yushu, who was bowing respectfully in front of him, with a complicated expression.

Ever since Lin Yushu returned home, Lin Jiang never took his sister seriously. After all, in his and his father's eyes, the people in the first house were only fit to be their pathfinders.

Besides, they will all die sooner or later.

So in his eyes, Lin Yushu was just a dead person, or rather, a dead person who still had some use value.

Lin Jiang has been busy in the Ministry of Revenue during this period and often does not return home. Even if he returns home, he is unwilling to pay attention to what happens in the backyard of the mansion.

In his opinion, only power is the most tempting, so he is obsessed with the intrigues and conspiracies in the court.

In his opinion, the fighting between the women in the back house was no different from children playing house, childish and stupid.

Unfortunately, his mother was often entangled in disputes in the backyard. He knew that his mother was not smart. Lin Xuehui took after her mother, with a stubborn temper and a unwillingness to admit defeat, but no brains.

Only he and Lin Qingrou inherited their father's wisdom, so he was particularly fond of his younger sister.

He had heard a little about what had happened in the general's mansion in the past few months, but he was too lazy to pay attention.

One reason was that he looked down upon and was unwilling to interfere in the affairs of the rear quarters; the other reason was that the person who got into trouble was either Liu Mei or Lin Xuehui.

He was not surprised that something would happen to these two idiots.

But today, even his sister Lin Qingrou, whom he has always valued, has made such a fool of herself. He can no longer sit idly by!

Lin Jiang did not believe that the affairs of Liu Mei and Lin Xuehui were all caused by Lin Yushu. In his opinion, no woman could have such means and scheming.

However, Lin Jiang believed that today’s incident was definitely related to Lin Yushu!

"I heard that Rou'er was in trouble, so I came to ask you about the situation."

Lin Yushu described the situation in a calm and collected manner, without adding any embellishments.

Hearing that Lin Yushu's description was the same as what Lin Jiang had inquired about himself, Lin Jiang nodded and then changed the subject.

"Before Concubine Hu found Rou'er, someone saw you trying to stop Concubine Hu. Is that true?"

Lin Jiang spoke in a cold tone, looking at Lin Yushu sharply.

When Ye Wanling saw this, she immediately became angry. This was not the tone of talking to her sister, this was like interrogating a criminal!

When Lin Yushu saw Ye Wanling was about to stand up for her, she immediately remembered that she had married Lin Jiang in her previous life.

Moreover, not long after Nan Huaishuo ascended the throne, the lively and bright Ye Wanling died inexplicably!

She must never let this happen again!

Lin Yushu held Ye Wanling's hand, shook her head gently at her, turned to look at Lin Jiang, her expression still calm.

"Second brother, do you think I shouldn't have stopped you? Do you think that if I hadn't stopped you, the scene of Second Sister falling into the Second Prince's arms and feeding him wine wouldn't have been seen by Concubine Hu?"

Lin Yushu asked these two questions in a very sincere manner, as if she really had such doubts in her heart.

When Lin Jiang heard this, he choked on his breath and felt that this sister was indeed difficult to deal with.

"You're overthinking it. I'm just curious. You weren't there, so how did you know that Rou'er and the Second Prince were doing something that Concubine Hu couldn't witness?"

Lin Jiang is smart after all, and he won't be shooed away by just a few words from Lin Yushu.

"Because I saw my second sister go to see His Royal Highness the Second Prince with my own eyes. As for why I guessed what they were doing..."

Lin Yushu hesitated to speak, as if she was embarrassed to say the rest of the words, but seeing Lin Jiang's eagerness, she gritted her teeth and continued.

"That's because before that, I was talking to His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince, and the second sister came over and pulled the Fifth Prince's sleeve and acted coquettishly, saying that she wanted the Fifth Prince to take her to visit the suburbs of Beijing..."

"I was shy and left in a hurry. I didn't expect that she would go to see the Second Prince again in a short while and even sit next to him..."

"Don't look at anything indecent. I really don't want to see anything I shouldn't see, so I left in a hurry."

"Pfft~"

After hearing what Lin Yushu said, Lin Jiang's face became so gloomy that water could drip from it.

Ye Huanzhi, who was standing not far behind them, couldn't help but sneer.

"First it was the Fifth Prince, then the Second Prince. Miss Lin is busier than a butterfly among flowers."

Ye Huanzhi's face was full of contempt, and he did not hide it at all, but Lin Jiang did not dare to say anything to him.

Because Ye Wanling and Ye Huanzhi's father was the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and Lin Jiang was the Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, who happened to be Lin Jiang's boss.

The first level of officialdom crushes people to death!

He could hear the contempt for Lin Qingrou in Lin Yushu's words. What "I'm thin-skinned"? Doesn't that mean Rouer is thick-skinned!

What are the words "act like a spoiled child" and "don't look at anything inappropriate"... Lin Qingrou is simply described as a slut!

But Lin Jiang knew in his heart that what Lin Yushu said was probably true.

Of course, he understood what Lin Qingrou's goal was, or rather, this was the ultimate goal of their second branch.

That is - Lin Qingrou became the queen, and Lin Jiang became a close minister of the emperor who had made great contributions to the emperor!

"Humph, I didn't expect that my elder sister is so eloquent. Today I have witnessed it."

Lin Yushu had a smile on her face, but she did not hide the contempt in her eyes at all.

"Brother, you are too kind. Shu'er is not as smart as my second sister. I believe that with my second sister's unparalleled intelligence, she will definitely rise to the top one day."

Of course, there are not only phoenixes on the branches, but also crows...

Lin Jiang's heart skipped a beat. This Lin Yushu actually saw through Lin Qingrou's plan!

Lin Yushu no longer paid attention to Lin Jiang's inquiring gaze, turned around and pulled Ye Wanling towards the garden.

"Cousin Ling'er, you must remember to stay away from my second brother from now on."

"Don't worry, I've been fed up with him for a long time. If it weren't for the fact that he's your second brother, I would have slapped him in the face just now!"

……

Behind Lin Yushu, Lin Jiang stared at the direction where Lin Yushu left with his eyes gradually darkening and a dangerous light in them.

The sky is getting darker and night is coming...
