The purpose of lying dormant and showing weakness was to find out who in the court was colluding with Beidi, not so that everyone could step on the Chu family.
The Lin family had deceived him first, seducing the bride before marriage, and now they dared to slap his wife. He really needed to be taught a lesson.
…
Lin.
Mrs. Lin was very old and developed a high fever after being tortured for a long time.
Lin Shuquan did not dare to delay, and immediately sent for the imperial doctor. He was sure that he would be cured as long as he rested for a few days, and then he felt at ease.
But after he saw the frightened Mrs. Lin next to him, he finally couldn't suppress his anger.
He grabbed her neck with his hands, and his usually handsome and elegant face turned into a ferocious one.
"An Yao, I warned you, but did you ignore it?"
Mrs. Lin has been a lady of the world since she was a child. How can she have any strength if she doesn't touch the spring water with her fingers?
She tried desperately to pull Lin Shuquan's hand away, but she felt that she was losing strength. Her eyes when she looked at him were full of despair and fear, and she was extremely scared.
Instead of letting go, he tightened his grip tighter and tighter.
"The incident in Xia Yuan has already ruined my reputation. How dare you take your mother to the Chu family to cause trouble? Do you think His Majesty's punishment for me is too light?"
His madness made the maids and maids in the room afraid to speak. Mrs. Lin, who was awakened, saw this scene and was startled and said: "Son, sire, I am going for my mother. I want to share the burden with you." , bring back that girl Lin Qingge. Who knew she was so ignorant of praise?"
"You are the ones who don't know how to appreciate me!"
Lin Shuquan shouted loudly and threw Mrs. Lin away, letting her hit the wall and slide to the ground. She rolled her eyes and kept coughing, without even looking at her.
He walked towards the bed step by step. His angry face made Mrs. Lin shrink back unconsciously, and her words became extremely dry: "Shu Quan."
"Mother."
He called him very respectfully, but both his expression and his words were completely in the attitude of ordering his subordinates: "The situation in the court is tense now, and it is absolutely impossible for my son to worry about it at home. If anything happens to my mother, she can only be there alone." Carry it in this room."
"You...you mean..."
"Mother, I have said this, you must cherish it."
After saying that, he bowed respectfully to Mrs. Lin, then stepped back and left.
Everything he said and did was within the rules, but looking at his back, Mrs. Lin shivered unconsciously, with deep fear in her eyes.
What does it mean to carry it alone?
Even if she really died, in order to avoid Ding worry, he would never mourn her, but let her lie here rotting and stinking!
The panic that penetrated into the bone marrow made Mrs. Lin's already bad complexion even paler.
When she saw Mrs. Lin sitting on the ground who was still trembling, she said sternly: "It's all your useless things that make my son not only have to worry about things in the court, but also things in the inner house! If I had known you were so useless, I might as well not let you in! In terms of dowry and ability, how can you compare to her?"
"Mother," Mrs. Lin, who had clear fingerprints on her neck, suddenly raised her head, her face full of disbelief, "it was you who said she was unworthy of being the wife of the Lin family..."
"You are even worse! Today's incident could have been avoided, but you kept urging me to go, just because it is your unlucky daughter. I think you should send her to a nunnery as soon as possible to avoid embarrassment!"
Mrs. Lin's face, which was originally flushed from suppressing pain, suddenly lost its color.
She opened her mouth to say something, but what she received was an even more severe scolding from Mrs. Lin.
"If you hadn't talked nonsense when you arrived at the Chu family and annoyed Lin Qingge, that little Langho would have followed me back obediently. How could there be anything going on later? Get out of here, I'll get annoyed when I see you."
Mrs. Lin was a noble daughter of the An family, and she was married to Lin Shuquan as a low-income person. However, as Lin Shuquan rose up in the court, her status became embarrassing.
But she never thought that Lin Shuquan would be violent to her, and Mrs. Lin even scolded her face to face.
For a moment, she sat on the ground blankly, forgetting to react.
Mrs. Lin watched her not moving, picked up the medicine bowl at hand and smashed it at Mrs. Lin: "Get out of here yet!"
Since the old lady was weak at this time and didn't have much strength in her hands, the porcelain bowl hitting her head didn't hurt, but it made Mrs. Lin feel like her heart was broken.
Her husband has never been her support, and her mother-in-law, who always praises her in front of others, is just talking.
Mrs. Lin smiled sadly and stood up to leave.
But before crossing the threshold, Mrs. Lin's voice sounded again: "No one is allowed to say a word about what happened tonight. Otherwise, the well in the back garden will be her destination!"
The servants in the house have been treated obediently, who dares to talk?
Mrs. Lin understood that Mrs. Lin was talking about her.
Since her husband's family cannot be relied upon, she has no choice but to seek help from her natal family. Lin Qiuyue must be settled well so that she can have someone to rely on for the rest of her life!
…
When acting, you have to do a complete set. Lin Qingge has been staying at the General's Mansion without going out since he staged the drama of "vomiting blood".
But she didn't miss the news from outside at all.
Especially about the Lin family.
Except for Lin Shuquan going to the government office in the morning every day, the door of Lin's mansion was closed tightly, and no one came in or out through the main entrance.
"Young madam, the Lin family has learned its lesson and doesn't dare to disturb you anymore?" Shi Qi asked a little uncertainly.
Lin Qingge sneered: "Are you kidding? If they can learn to behave, pigs will climb trees, okay? It's just that things were too big last time, and now they have to hide their tails between their legs. By the way, you haven't said it yet, Lin Shuquan is now what's the situation."
"Master Lin's disaster relief work last year was suddenly revealed to have gone awry. Now His Majesty is very dissatisfied with him and is sending people to investigate."
It's really a coincidence that what happened last year has come out now. Someone must have taken the opportunity to suppress it.
But she knew very well that anyone who could become the prime minister, the head of the civil service, was definitely not a fool.
Since the matter could be suppressed before, even if it was raised now, it would only force him to abandon more people.
If you really want to hurt Lin Shuquan and completely trip him up, you need not only tangible evidence, but also Emperor Zhou's complete distrust of him.
Now that Chu Nanfeng is unconscious, someone suddenly attacks the Lin family. It shouldn't be someone taking care of the Chu family's face. Then... is it Mr. Jiu?
Her eyebrows twitched, she always felt that the man was very familiar, but she searched the original owner's memory and couldn't find any trace of his existence.
And this person's identity is too mysterious, which always makes her not so confident.
Raising her hand to rub her eyebrows, she said aloud: "The matters in the court have nothing to do with us, so we don't need to pay attention to them. During the time I was at home, there was nothing wrong with the medicine hall, right?"
