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

East Courtyard, Lingluo Courtyard.

The house was as quiet as water. There was no candle lit in the dim inner room, and the jewels, jades, silks and satins in the house all became dull.

On the bed, a person lay lifeless and motionless.

If it weren't for the slight rise and fall of his chest, he would have been no different from a dead person.

Beside the bed, the second wife held a bowl of milk and blood swallows and sighed continuously.

"Alas, Rou'er, now that things have come to this, what would it matter if you died?"

"If you die, wouldn't that be Lin Yushu's wish?"

"Look at Liu Mei. She had such a scandal with the Crown Prince at the Spring Banquet, but now she is fine..."

No matter how the Second Madam tried to persuade her, Lin Qingrou looked half dead.

creak.

The door of the inner room was pushed open, and a tall figure walked in, looking angry and somewhat disappointed.

"Rou'er, do you know where you failed?"

Hearing Lin Jiang's words, Lin Qingrou's dead fish-like eyes rolled slightly, revealing confusion and unwillingness.

Lin Jiang sighed and sat on the edge of the bed. He knew in his heart that even though Lin Qingrou was intelligent, she was still a young lady with little experience in the world.

Raised and cared for by her family, she has a noble character but is very fragile and vulnerable. She is not as good as Liu Mei, whose family has fallen into poverty and who can quickly recover in the face of adversity.

"You're not cruel enough!"

The Second Madam and Lin Qingrou both looked puzzled. Aren’t they cruel enough?

They have been trying to plot against Lin Yushu, never showing mercy, and even arranged an assassination for Lin Yushu, although all of these failed in the end.

Lin Jiang understood the confusion in their hearts, shook his head, and his eyes were deep.

"You're being cruel in the wrong place."

Lin Jiang's few words successfully awakened Lin Qingrou's vitality. She slowly sat up, her pale face full of confusion.

"When Lin Yushu was of low status, you didn't kill her. Now that she is a county lady, you want to assassinate her. How reckless!"

"Father and grandmother were too hasty in their arrangements. The death of a young lady from a general's mansion is not a big deal, but the death of a county lady personally appointed by the emperor will definitely be investigated thoroughly by the court."

"This is a matter of royal dignity!"

Lin Jiang had a look of fear and helplessness on his face. Now, except for himself, everyone in their second room had been thrown off balance by Lin Yushu and had forgotten their original goal.

"So what should we do? Let that little bitch ride on our heads?"

Now, whenever Lin Yushu was mentioned, the Second Madam would become furious. Her two daughters had been harmed so badly by that bitch!

Lin Jiang's tone suddenly became cold and he looked at the Second Madam seriously.

"What does mother want? Are you going to assassinate the county lady again, anger the emperor, and let the general's mansion be buried with Lin Yushu?"

Upon hearing this, the Second Lady immediately stopped stirring, but there was still a look of resentment in her eyes.

Lin Jiang stopped talking to his unintelligent mother and turned to look at Lin Qingrou, his tone becoming gentler.

"Second brother knows that you are unwilling to accept this, but don't forget your mission!"

Lin Qingrou's heart moved. Her mission?

Yes, she was raised by the old lady as the future queen since she was a child, and was required to be proficient in rules and etiquette, reading, and even music, chess, calligraphy and painting.

So what if Lin Yushu became a county lady? As long as she doesn't block her path to success, why would she waste all these years of hard work for a bitch like her!

Lin Qingrou's eyes gradually became clear, and Lin Jiang knew that she had heard him.

"Remember, the people of the first house can only be our stepping stones. If the stone is stinky and hard, why would you, a piece of beautiful jade, go head-to-head with it?"

"When the day comes when you rise to prominence, she will be crushed to pieces just by lifting her foot!"

The light in her eyes grew brighter and brighter. After so many years of hard work, Lin Qingrou was certainly different from an ordinary lady like Lin Xuehui, and she quickly regained her confidence.

Seeing this, Lin Jiang nodded with satisfaction. Lin Qingrou was like a flower in a greenhouse. It was good for her to suffer a setback like this, as it could temper her character.

But... Lin Jiang changed the subject.

"Rou'er is a beautiful jade, she cannot collide with a stinky stone, but I am a sword that can cut iron like mud, so leave Lin Yushu to me!"

The second wife looked at Lin Qingrou with joy. She knew her son best.

Lin Jiang is meticulous and experienced in dealing with people, even more so than Lin Minglang. If Lin Jiang takes action, Lin Yushu will definitely not get away with it!

Lin Qingrou felt warm in her heart. Lin Jiang had spoiled her since she was a child, and this time he dealt with Lin Yushu for her sake.

She must cheer up, no matter if she is slapped and paraded through the streets!

With her beauty, talent and family background, it would be easy for her to marry the prince.

She will definitely be the queen of the next dynasty!!

Lin Qingrou, who had regained her fighting spirit, ate the blood swallows spoonful by spoonful from the Second Madam's hand.

She must maintain her beauty, which is her greatest asset.

Seeing Lin Qingrou recovered as before, Lin Jiang left the inner room with peace of mind.

As soon as he walked out of Lingluo Courtyard, Lin Jiang's face instantly turned gloomy.

If he had previously only regarded Lin Yushu as a thoughtful and resourceful girl from the boudoir.

But after the assassination, Lin Jiang's thoughts changed drastically.

Lin Yushu is definitely extraordinary, as she was able to escape unharmed from the assassinations by the killers from Changshengpu and Xiaojiupu!

With such strength, she is likely to be protected by secret guards.

There are only a handful of people in the capital who have so many secret guards. I'm afraid she has hooked up with a certain prince...

Lin Jiang can be sure that the person who is colluding with Lin Yushu is definitely not the Fifth Prince Nan Huaishuo.

Because he is from Nan Huaishuo!

Only his father Lin Minglang knew about this.

No one in the court believed that the prince firmly supported by the second branch of their general's mansion was actually the unknown fifth prince.

On the surface, Lin Minglang did not support the party, but when Liu Mei's incident came out, Lin Minglang was identified by everyone in the court as a member of the prince's party.

But in fact, as early as three years ago, Lin Jiang had secretly contacted Nan Huaishuo.

Lin Jiang discovered that Nan Huaishuo didn't want to appear to be silent and not fight, in fact, he was extremely ambitious.

The most important thing is that Nan Huaishuo is very good at forbearance and disguise. He has been lurking beside the prince for many years, sleeping on straw and tasting gall, and has never aroused suspicion from the prince and the queen.

Even over the years, Nan Huaishuo has secretly cultivated a large amount of his own power.

From then on, Lin Jiang made up his mind to follow Nan Huaishuo.

Such a prince who has perseverance and means, and can endure what ordinary people cannot endure, will surely achieve great things in the future!

Unfortunately, Lin Minglang didn't want to take any risks. As shrewd as he was, he wanted to be invincible forever in this battle for the throne.

Therefore, Lin Minglang wanted to win over different forces.

He asked Lin Qingrou to hook up with the Second Prince and the Fifth Prince at the same time, and he even supported Liu Mei marrying the Crown Prince.

Lin Jiang heaved a long sigh in his heart. His father's fence-sitting behavior could not protect the future of their second branch at all.

Now is the time for him to make a choice!
