Lin Zheng?
The smile on Lin Qingge's face froze slightly, not because he was afraid, but because he understood that he had dug Su Nuannuan's grave.
Looking up, she met Chu Nanfeng's eyes.
The two people's eyes met, and then separated again in just a few seconds.
There was a fleeting look of surprise in Lin Shuquan's eyes, but he soon greeted him with a smile: "Master Lin's visit to the humble abode is really a blessing. It's an honor for Mr. Lin."
"Why do you think this is your great misfortune?" Lin Zheng glanced at him, walked to Lin Qingge and sat down, pretending to be surprised and said, "When you arrived at the Lin family, you didn't even have a cup of tea. How could you come here with such honor? A guest?"
"If it was someone else's invitation, I would naturally not come. But with Valley Master Lin's arrangement, wouldn't it be appropriate for me not to come?"
She didn't pretend to be deaf and dumb, she directly stated that she had already seen through Lin Zheng's design.
He tutted softly: "You're a very smart girl, but do you know that your mother's burial ground is actually an empty tomb?"
It was something she had known for a long time, but now that it was said in public, her heart still twitched hard.
There was no need to pretend, the expression on her face instantly became very ugly, and the eyes she turned to look at Lin Shuquan were full of questions and more of accusations.
Lin Zheng raised his eyebrows and turned his gaze from her to Lin Shuquan: "Mr. Lin, when your wife Naru was buried, this girl was still young, so it's normal for her not to know. You don't know, right? Why is the coffin there? Is it empty?”
"What is Valley Master Lin talking about? Why can't I understand?" Lin Shuquan's face was a little stiff.
Lin Zheng glanced at him with disgust, then whistled.
Everyone looked at each other in confusion, not understanding what he meant.
However, this doubt did not last long, and soon several people came in carrying a coffin, and someone behind them was holding a stone tablet.
With just one glance, Lin Shuquan's face turned green.
As the prime minister of the dynasty, his concubine's grave was dug up and the coffin was delivered to his door. How insulting was it?
It's a pity that Lin Zheng has never been a person who takes care of other people's face. He pointed to the empty coffin on the ground and the stone tablet engraved with 'Su Nuannuan': "Prime Minister Lin, I have always had a bad temper. I advise you to tell me directly. The answer I want. Otherwise, I don’t know what will happen.”
Lin Qingge felt refreshed after hearing the naked threatening words.
She had found trouble with the Lin family many times before, but she still had to think twice about bringing an empty coffin to the door so openly.
After all, she was still not qualified enough to fall out with the current Prime Minister.
Lin Zheng was different. As the master of Zangfeng Valley in Yunqi Mountain, he was a master of metaphysics in the world.
Even Emperor Zhou had to give him some face, let alone Lin Shuquan? If this matter is not explained clearly today, I am afraid that Lin Zheng will really demolish this Lin Mansion.
Just thinking about it makes Lin Qingge feel happy!
But at this time, Lin Shuquan was complaining in his heart: "Master Lin, this is a family matter of the Lin family. Isn't it inappropriate for you to do this?"
"Isn't it appropriate? Prime Minister Lin has the same surname as me, and we belong to the same family. It's nothing to ask about matters of the same clan, right?"
Lin Qingge: "..."
She thought she was thick-skinned before, but now she realizes that there is even thicker skin among them!
There are so many people with the same surname in this world, how can they be considered the same clan? Really don’t be too ridiculous!
But it was not her turn to think about it. Lin Qingge stood up and walked to Lin Shuquan with an angry look on his face: "Where is my mother's body?"
She lifted up the thin mattress in the coffin and said: "There is no trace of the body on it. Her body was not buried at all back then. What on earth did you do to her!"
Chu Nanfeng stood behind her, silently declaring that no matter what she wanted to do, he would be her solid backing.
Even a veteran like Lin Shuquan, who has been in the officialdom for more than 20 years, could not help but sweat on his forehead when faced with the pressure brought by Lin Zheng and Chu Nanfeng at the same time.
He frowned and after thinking for a long time, he looked at Lin Zheng: "I can tell you this matter, but I can only tell you one person, and..."
Lin Shuquan paused and looked at Lin Qingge thoughtfully: "Valley Master Lin, you can't tell anyone anymore."
"Why!" Lin Qingge, who had always been calm, suddenly lost his temper.
Seeing her losing control, Lin Shuquan's expression became extremely natural: "I don't think Valley Master Lin will refuse this deal, right?"
"certainly."
When Lin Zheng walked past Lin Qingge, he stopped and smiled: "Girl, what are you afraid of? I have never been threatened by others, so just wait here."
Is this a public faux pas?
Lin Qingge stared at Lin Zheng blankly, a little unable to figure out his thoughts. He followed Lin Shuquan towards the study without stopping.
"Nan Feng!" Lin Qiuyue's tears fell, and her eyes when she looked at Chu Nanfeng were indescribably sad, "I really didn't expect that I would have the chance to see you. You actually woke up, and your leg was injured. Okay. It’s really God’s mercy that I still have a chance to see you.”
Lin Qingge rolled his eyes and said, "To understand, you have met before at the palace. You didn't seem excited at all at that time, but now you suddenly reacted? Could it be that you were thinking that the door of Prince Qi's Mansion was not easy to enter? Wouldn’t it be good to re-enter the General’s Mansion?”
"You... Hey, sister, since I have given this marriage contract to you, I won't have any other ideas. Why do you always misunderstand me?" She sniffed and looked at him again with red eyes. Chu Nanfeng, "At that time, I really felt sorry for my sister, so I agreed to let her marry you on my behalf. Unexpectedly, she was always worried that I would rob you, which made our relationship worse and worse."
Lin Qiuyue cried pitifully, not at all like the crazy woman she was when Lin Qingge came in just now.
Lin Qingge suddenly felt that it was a pity that people like Lin Qiuyue did not enter the palace.
As soon as a man appears, she will immediately pretend to be weak, and even her brain seems to go online instantly, and she knows how to hide her clumsiness when speaking.
What a pity, Chu Nanfeng was not really unconscious from the beginning to the end, so naturally he would not believe her nonsense!
But before the smile on Lin Qingge's lips reached the corners of her eyes, she was frozen in place by Chu Nanfeng's answer.
"I understand."
Do you understand what it means?
Understand what?
Lin Qingge didn't even start to get crazy about this ambiguous answer, but something happened that she couldn't understand.
Lin Qiuyue looked at Chu Nanfeng with a shy face: "I knew you would not misunderstand me. Then I will trouble you to resolve the misunderstanding between my sister and me. By the way, I prepared it for you and my sister back then. It’s a wedding gift, but unfortunately my sister has been refusing to take it, so just let me get it.”
"good."
What's good?
Is he planning to burn bridges and ignore her as his married wife? Making love to his little childhood sweetheart again?
Lin Qingge glared at Chu Nanfeng angrily, and had already begun to consider which of his legs she would cripple again to make him understand that what she said was not just said casually!
