Zheng Ji didn't miss the panic in Lin Jun's eyes, and felt even more certain.

Sure enough, there were already signs of trouble in the Lin family at this time. Lin Jun's actions in his previous life must have been carefully planned.

In the previous life, after Lin Jun came back from Jiangnan Road, he borrowed a lot of money from her one after another.

But soon, the money was returned to her, and it was even more than what she had lent.

What did Lin Jun say at that time?

Her almond-shaped eyes gleamed, and her tone was familiar and intimate: "Your Highness saved me so much, so I naturally want to repay Your Highness. Your Highness, can I deposit some money in the bank in your name from now on?"

"Although Your Highness has the richest Jiang family behind you, it is your grandfather's family after all. I still think it would be better if some money is in the hands of Your Highness."

Although it's not word for word accurate, that's what it means.

At that time, she was also obsessed, completely unguarded, and felt that what Lin Jun said made sense.

He also lent his private seal and let Lin Jun operate it.

At the beginning, Lin Jun gave her several silver coins, but she had seen many silver coins and didn't take it to heart.

Later, she saw Lin Jun wearing last year's spring shirt, and thought that he was just the granddaughter of Lin Shangshu, and maybe he didn't have much money.

So, with a wave of his hand, he gave all the silver coins to Lin Jun.

As for the private seal, because Lin Jun said several times that he forgot to take it to the palace, he never got it back.

Until the summer floods in June, Jiangnan Road suddenly suffered floods...

Thinking of the tragic situation of starving to death at that time, Zheng Ji felt a chill all over his body.

At that time, she was living deep in the palace. How could she know that Lin Shangshu and his granddaughter had made such a trick in order to escape the crime?

Trap her and the Jiang family in!

If the mother and concubine had not asked for a lower status and the Jiang family was willing to give up the Huitong Hall, the father could have blocked the impeachment of the courtiers and would not be charged.

But the Jiang family only has one Huitong Hall, and the emperor's father only loves his mother and concubine so much.

In this way, these things continued to be reduced, until three years after her descent, they finally disappeared.

Song Zan and Lin Jun put in a lot of effort behind this water mill!

How could such a person not be disgusting if he appeared in front of her again after a lifetime?

In this life, for her and her mother-in-law, and for the people who died innocently in the floods, she was bound to make the Lin family pay a price in blood!

Killing for life, since the Lin family has the courage to embezzle Jiangnan Road's river repair funds, they must be prepared to destroy their family!

Lin Jun suddenly felt uneasy and asked tentatively: "Your Highness, you...why do you ask that?"

"It's nothing. I entered the palace today and heard my father mentioning the spring flood. Si Tianjian said that there was plenty of rain this year. My father said that fortunately last winter, funds were allocated to repair the river. Isn't your grandfather at the Ministry of Works? With him here, Father will definitely be relieved."

Lin Jun forced a smile and replied: "This...is indeed true."

The tone was so weak that Zheng Ji wanted to laugh.

Lin Jun's grandfather, Lin Heyun, was a Jinshi in the 25th year of the founding of the People's Republic of China. He was best at river engineering and had made great achievements in dredging rivers. With this, he gradually rose to prominence and was promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Industry in the first year of Yongning.

Lin Heyun was favored by the Holy Spirit and was one of the ministers whom his father relied heavily on and trusted in the early years of Yongning.

My father probably never thought that the minister he had placed high hopes and trust in had embezzled two-thirds of the river repair money based on his skill as a river worker.

After all, when it comes to river worker fraud, who can compare to Lin Heyun?

What's more, when the spring floods came, the Lin family knew something was wrong, so they vomited out some of the money they had swallowed and secretly repaired many rivers.

Therefore, when the court officials went to investigate several times, they found no clues.

However, the Lin family could hide it from the people, the court and the emperor, but they could not hide it from God!

Once there is a big flood in Jiangnan Road, the tricks done by the Lin family in the river will definitely be broken through, and they will never be hidden!

As a person who is good at river engineering, Lin Heyun knows this best!

Therefore, before the spring floods arrived, the Lin family had already begun to make arrangements in order to have a scapegoat when the incident happened in the future.

Even if he is not a scapegoat and the law does not punish everyone, the Lin family's crime can be lighter.

This is also the reason why Lin Jun came back from Jiangnan Road.

Because according to what Lin Jun said before leaving Jingzhao, he would stay in Jiangnan Road for more than half a year. However, in order to get her and the Jiang family into trouble, Lin Jun returned to Jingzhao early under Lin Heyun's instruction.

These are things she didn't know about in her previous life!

But later, she still found out.

The concubine and her grandfather broke the matter into pieces and told her bit by bit what Lin Jun was planning.

After this incident, she turned against Lin Jun and wanted to kill this person directly.

After the incident, Lin Jun actually had the nerve to cry in front of her, saying that the emperor was so kind to her and his mother and concubine, and even if these things were framed on their heads, the emperor would not hold them accountable.

But the Lin family is different.

He will definitely be beheaded, and the Lin family will be ruined!

Since the Lin family had the audacity to embezzle the repair money and cause a huge disaster, shouldn't their family be destroyed?

How many families in Jiangnan Dao have been ruined because of the Lin family's corruption. The Lin family is paying with blood, and it is only right!

She and the Jiang family were not the ones who took the repair money, and it was not her who caused the destruction of people's homes. Why should she and the Jiang family suffer on behalf of the Lin family?

Because she was stupid and mistrusted the people around her in her previous life, so she suffered this and paid the price in her previous life.

In this life, Lin Jun can’t even think about it!

Lin Jun came to Baiyunman this time with full confidence, thinking that after meeting Zheng Ji, he would be able to change the previous attitude of Princess Changding Mansion.

But the spring floods mentioned by Zheng Ji disturbed her heart.

After a while, she calmed down and continued to ask: "Your Highness, what's going on between you and Crown Prince Song? Crown Prince Song is your consort, did he make you angry?"

According to past experience, Zheng Ji would get dizzy whenever she mentioned Song Zan.

No matter what she said at this time, she would always respond.

She thought well, but the reality slapped her hard.

Zheng Ji looked at Lin Jun with a half-smile but not a smile, and said, "Little magpie, I suddenly noticed that you often mention Song Zan in front of me. Why is this? Could it be that you have some thoughts about Song Zan?"

Lin Jun's nickname is Que Que. In the past, Zheng Ji would sometimes call her "Little Que'er" affectionately, but now this title has changed its meaning in Lin Jun's ears.

It's like looking at something.

Lin Jun's expression immediately changed, and he shook his head desperately: "Your Highness, I am not, I don't have it!"

These words were so heartbreaking that she seemed to sink into a cold pool.

It frightened her even more than the spring floods she had heard about before.

Because she didn't have such a deep understanding of what her grandfather planned, but she and Song Zan, she...she knew the inside story best!
