Lin Sheng learned from Zheng Zhen the news of Lin Zai's injury the next day. She couldn't sit still immediately, and ran to Li's house after talking to her master.
Because he was too anxious, he accidentally bumped into Liu Shaopu who was coming towards him at the entrance of the medical clinic.
Liu Shaopu touched his head and complained: "Why are you always so reckless? Check if my head is swollen because of your impact."
Lin Sheng had no time to bicker with Liu Shaopu, "I have business now. If you have anything else, wait until I get back."
"Oh, okay then!" Unexpectedly, Liu Shaopu readily agreed without saying any more nonsense.
She was so anxious, what happened?
Lin Sheng ran very fast and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Liu Shaopu walked into the medical clinic. After briefly greeting Zheng Zhen, he immediately asked: "Miss Zheng, why are the quack doctors so anxious?"
"Miss Lin is injured, Sheng'er is going to the Li Mansion to see her!"
"Injured? Is it serious?" Liu Shaopu asked immediately.
"It's no longer a serious problem!"
"That's good!" He felt relieved, "Doctor Shi and Miss Zheng, I'm waiting for Lin Sheng here. I shouldn't disturb you, right?"
Zheng Zhen and Shi Heng looked at each other and smiled. How could they not understand Liu Shaopu's thoughts?
"Young Master Liu must have been sure that Dr. Shi and I would say not to bother him, so he asked deliberately." Zheng Zhen joked.
Liu Shaopu laughed, and he stopped being polite and sat down somewhere casually.

When the servants of the Li family saw that it was Lin Sheng, they quickly took her to Lin Zai's room.
The door was ajar, and my sister was sitting on the bed holding a jade pendant in a daze.
Lin Sheng knocked on the door. Lin Zai looked up and saw that it was Sheng'er.
"How did you come?"
"I heard from Zheng Zhen that you were injured. Is it serious?" Lin Sheng walked to the bed and asked anxiously.
"It's not serious, don't worry!"
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"Telling you just makes you more worried. Besides, I'm fine now!" Lin Zai held Lin Sheng's hand and asked her to sit on the bed.
Seeing that her sister's face was still pale, Lin Sheng warned her, "Take good care of yourself. Don't worry about anything else these two days. Just have a good rest. Do you hear me?"
"Okay, my Divine Doctor Lin."
"Hmph, you're still in the mood to tease me!" Lin Sheng pouted, "Sister, what's going on with us three sisters lately? We always have bad luck one after another!"
"This should be the so-called sharing of difficulties!" Lin Zai said with a smile.
"I'm worried to death, and you're still in the mood to joke!" Lin Sheng really couldn't do anything to his sister, "Which bad guy wants to harm you?"
Lin Zai shook his head.
"Anyway, you have to be more careful when you go out in the future, you know?"
"Yes, I will!"
Lin Zai was still holding the jade pendant in her other hand. She didn't understand why her father repeatedly told her to keep it before he died.
"Sister, what are you worried about?"
Lin Zai was still frowning, and Lin Sheng said hurriedly: "Sister, just tell me if you have anything. It's better to have someone else to talk to than having to bear everything yourself. You told me this!"
"Sheng'er, have you heard of Su Ling?" Lin Zai asked suddenly.
"Su Ling?" Lin Sheng was a little confused, "I seem to have heard of it, but I can't remember it!"
"Former Prime Minister of Yin State." Lin Zai reminded.
"When you said that, I remembered it. Has he ever collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country?"
Lin Zai smiled miserably. His father served the country and the people, but in the end he ended up like this. It was really sad.
"Do you think Su Ling is really a traitor to the enemy and the country as people say?"
"I don't know, but everyone says so, so it shouldn't be wrong!"
“But sometimes what you see and hear may not be the truth!”
"I don't understand."
"People's words are scary, Sheng'er, you must have the ability to judge right from wrong."
"Yeah." Lin Sheng seemed to understand, "Sister, why did you suddenly mention this person?"
Some things cannot be easily leaked to others, but to Lin Zai, Sheng'er is no one else!
She could trust Lin Sheng's character, and she had kept this secret for too long. She was tired and wanted to find someone to talk to.
Lin Zai glanced outside the door to make sure there was no one, then whispered: "Actually, Su Ling is my father!"
"What?" Lin Sheng stood up in surprise. She subconsciously covered her mouth. Fortunately, she didn't scream too loud just now.
My sister would not joke about such things. She couldn't help but blame herself when she thought of what she had just said.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that to Prime Minister Su."
"It's not your fault," Lin Zai looked at her tenderly, "It's what everyone else says. You don't know what happened back then, but Sheng'er, I hope that no matter what happens in the future, you will have your own opinions and opinions! "
"I see!"
Lin Sheng would never think that Su Ling was a traitor again. Although she didn't know what happened in the past, Lin Sheng believed that her sister's father would never commit treachery!

Lin Sheng admires his sister from the bottom of his heart.
On the way to the hospital that day, she happened to see her sister grabbing a little boy. She didn't know what they said. The child was shaking all over, with fear written on his face.
Before Yue Rushuang left the Western Territory, Lin Sheng would always pass by the General's Mansion on purpose, so she naturally knew who Lin Zai was.
She was full of prejudice against the people in the Li Mansion, and she couldn't stand the young ladies and young masters from the official family. She thought that these people only knew how to eat, drink and have fun, and knew nothing else.
Lin Sheng hated famous families, so she thought that Lin was deliberately bullying the children in this scene. Lin Sheng couldn't get angry, so she decided to go forward and argue.
"Let him go!" Lin Sheng said angrily.
Lin Zai said calmly, "Girl, you misunderstood."
"Misunderstanding? Look at how scared this kid is, and you still have the nerve to say it was me who misunderstood?"
The little boy suddenly broke away when Lin Zai wasn't paying attention. She ran behind Lin Sheng and secretly grabbed her.
Lin Sheng was even more convinced that she was right. She said to the boy, "Don't be afraid, my sister is here."
"girl!"
Before Lin Zai finished speaking, Lin Sheng interrupted: "Don't use your power to bully others. What's wrong with a lady from a rich family? Can she do whatever she wants to bully others? Anyway, I will never be afraid of you! If you do something wrong, you will do it wrong. , apologize to him quickly!"
Lin Zai wasn't angry, he just thought it was funny. This girl was very loyal, but she was a little impulsive.
Before Lin Zai had time to explain, he saw a strong man running angrily. He stopped immediately when he saw the little boy, "You thief, give me back the money!"
This time it was Lin Sheng's turn to be confused.
"Where's my wallet? Give it back to me!" The strong man saw Lin Sheng in front of the boy and asked sharply: "Did you instigate him to steal my money?"
"I didn't!" Lin Sheng hurriedly denied, but the little boy just pulled her tighter. In this situation, anyone would mistakenly think that the child knew him.
"You still say you're not? You look like a human being, but I didn't expect you to be a scoundrel." The strong man rolled up his sleeves and said, "Let me teach you a lesson today."
Lin Sheng was good at martial arts, so she was certainly not afraid, but Lin Zai came to her rescue in time, "You misunderstood, this girl has nothing to do with him, I can testify, and this is your purse, return it to you."
He took the money bag and still refused to give up, "Who are you? Why should I believe your words? Who knows if you are in the same group?"
Lin Zai smiled and said: "I have already got the money, so there is no need to cause trouble anymore. Of course, if you still want to continue to make trouble, I will accompany you."
Two guards with swords suddenly appeared behind Lin Zai. The strong man couldn't help but feel guilty. When he saw that the money in his purse was not missing, he stopped talking and stormed away.
Lin Sheng knew that he had misunderstood, so he said, "Thank you, I'm sorry just now!"
"It's okay. I happened to see this kid stealing someone else's money, so I stopped him and asked for the money bag back. You don't know the situation, and misunderstandings are inevitable."
The little boy lowered his head and felt very nervous. He didn't steal any money today, how would he go back? And I don’t know what these people plan to do with themselves!
The more he thought about it, the more scared he became. Just when he wanted to run away, Lin Sheng naturally refused.
She grabbed the boy, who was frightened by her.
Lin Sheng was not angry, maybe she was a poor person, so she understood the child better.
"Don't steal money again!" She thought for a moment, then took out the only copper coins she had and prepared to give them to him.
Lin Zai stopped her and the boy took the opportunity to escape. After Lin Zai glanced at the guards around him, he said to Lin Sheng: "Girl, you should keep the money yourself!"
"It's not for you, I want you to take care of it!" Lin Sheng said coldly: "I was very grateful to you, but it seems that my brain is really broken! Do you have any sympathy? He has suffered enough, I don't I expect you to help him, but why are you stopping me from giving him money?”
Lin Sheng planned to continue talking, but then a boy who looked bigger and was wearing dirty and old clothes suddenly came over. He knelt down to Lin Sheng and said, "Please do me a favor and give me some money." It’s been a long time since I had a good meal.”
Lin Sheng saw that he was pitiful, so he gave him the money in his hand. The older boy took the money and thanked him a few times before hurriedly walking away.
Lin didn't stop her this time, but she shook her head.
"Why are you shaking your head?" Lin Sheng asked dissatisfied.
"nothing!"
"I'm too lazy to pay attention to you, I'm leaving!" Lin Sheng didn't want to have anything to do with her.
But not long after, Lin Zai actually went to the medical clinic. Lin Sheng said angrily: "What are you doing here?"
"Take you somewhere."
"I'm not familiar with you, so I won't go!"
"Don't you want to know why I didn't let you give him the money?"
"That's because you have no compassion!"
"If you think so, I can't help it. Anyway, it's up to you whether you come or not!"
Although he was very reluctant, Lin Sheng couldn't restrain his curiosity and followed him.
Lin Zai took her to an abandoned yard. Not only were the two boys there, but there were also many dirty children gathered around!
Just as Lin Sheng was about to speak, Lin Zai stopped her and told her to be silent.
The group of children were besieging the first little boy she met. They pushed and beat him. The most violent one among them was the older boy who Lin Sheng later gave money to.
"Where did you hide the money?" he asked harshly.
The little boy held his head and cried, "I didn't hide it, I really didn't hide it!"
"Who are you lying to? I saw that woman give you money with my own eyes!"
"She was stopped by another person before she could give me the money!" The little boy became more and more frightened as he spoke. He knelt down and begged for mercy: "Boss, I really didn't hide the money. I gave all the money I stole to you! "
"Huh, you don't have the courage." He looked at this little brother back and forth, and said harshly: "I have asked someone to follow her. She seems to be a doctor. From now on, you will go to the neighborhood to beg for her every day. Do you hear me? ?”
The little boy nodded quickly.
Lin Sheng was furious. She wanted to teach them a lesson, but was dragged away by Lin Zai.
"Where are you taking me?"
"Let's have a cup of tea together."
This time Lin Sheng did not refuse.
"Do you want to see my joke?" Lin Sheng was frustrated. She was no longer as domineering as before.
"Why should I laugh at you?"
"I still think I'm contemptuous of you, but in fact I'm a fool and don't even know I'm being fooled."
"This shows that you are simple and kind. If I laugh at you, who would I be?"
"But I just treated you so badly!"
"That's because you misunderstood me, I can't blame you!"
"I was so stupid!"
Lin Zai shook his head, "This world is far more sinister and complicated than you think. Kindness is a good thing, but sometimes your kindness can be easily used by evil people to achieve their ulterior purposes! And you have also seen that those people are How did you bully that child? Even if you gave him the money, he would still be beaten and scolded, and even asked to do more bad things! Girl, I'm not denying what you did, but I'm just worried about that child You will suffer more because of your kindness.”
Lin Zai's words changed Lin Sheng's view of her a lot, "How do you know they are a small gang?"
"Because I have experienced more things than you, I know more about the dangers of this world! After the child ran away just now, I asked a guard to follow him secretly, so I found their gathering place."
"Are we just going to sit idly by and let them cheat and do evil?"
"You don't need to worry about this!" Lin Zai sighed: "Fortunately, they are still young and immature. If they continue to be allowed to develop, they will one day be a great danger to the Western Region!"
"That child is so pitiful. He was forced to do so!" Lin Sheng said with some regret.
"Yes! There are too many poor people in this world who can't help themselves!"
This was the first time Lin Sheng and Lin Zai met.
With an outstanding daughter like her sister, Su Ling will definitely not be as miserable as the world says!
He must be a good person!
