Mu Qiyue was out of town temporarily for a while due to matters related to Muyue Trading Company, so he got the news much later than Lin Zhu.
And after knowing about it, his mood suddenly became very bad. Originally, he had not been able to get answers from Lin Zhu in time because of trivial matters in the business, and now there were rumors like this that harmed Lin Zhu's reputation. In order to avoid suspicion, Lin Zhu would not have anything to do with him.
Too much contact.
Mu Qiyue, whose face was ashen, first came to Muyue Trading Company and asked Lu Mingtao to find out who spread the news. He decided to give the person who spread the rumor an unforgettable punishment.
"Fourth Master, I think the person who spread this rumor should be a woman." Lu Mingtao speculated, with a somewhat solemn expression on his face.
"Oh, what do you mean?" Mu Qiyue was suspicious of Zhao Cheng, the Marquis of Hui'an. After all, Muyue Trading Company was once again cooperating with Lin Zhu. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that Zhao Cheng was a narrow-minded Zhao Cheng who only wanted to make money but not lose money.
It is possible to slander yourself and Lin Zhu over this matter.
"The rumors almost didn't say anything wrong with you, they were all directed at Miss Lin." Lu Mingtao took a few steps in the room and said, "He spoke so badly of Miss Lin again. He must be jealous of her, and maybe he likes you.
"Although Lu Mingtao's analysis was not far from the facts, they could not find this person for a while.
After all, Mu Qiyue's previous reputation was too negative. Although he has recovered some, the number of people who really like him is still limited. It seems that the first target should be those who are jealous of Lin Zhu.
"Although Miss Lin has always been kind, she can't help but be a bit tactless sometimes. In addition, she has become the granddaughter of General Chang. This is also something that makes many people envious and jealous. It must be easier to find someone around her." Lu Mingtao and Lin
Zhu is also very familiar with it, and the cooperation between the two parties has always been very tacit, so he is also willing to help in this kind of matter.
"Hmph, we must find this person, how dare he ruin my sister's reputation like this." Chang Tianlei sat in the hall and said angrily. "Let me know who is talking nonsense behind my back, and I will make him look good!
"
"Girl Zhu, what do you think?" General Chang, who was sitting at the top, had a serious look on his face. He turned his attention to Lin Zhu, who was at the center of the incident, but saw that her face was as usual and she was not angry or panicked by this incident.
"The clown's tricks are not on the stage. Don't pay attention to them." Lin Zhuyun said calmly. Although he was used to seeing this kind of thing in his previous life, he didn't expect it to happen to him now. But Lin Zhu felt that he was stable and the rumors were natural.
It will break without attacking.
"After this trend, those boring people will probably stop."
"Don't you want to know who started the rumor?" Seeing Lin Zhu's calmness, General Chang nodded secretly, showing his good nature.
"The people who spread rumors may not understand me, or they may not understand what I do. But these people are like this because they have nothing to do all day long. It is better to make them busy so as not to waste time in such boring places.
." Lin Zhu actually has some suspicions, but there is no real evidence, so it is not easy to make random guesses.
"That's right, my sister is really jealous sometimes." Chang Tianlei was convinced of this. Everything Lin Zhu did had very good results, even the pasture that no one was optimistic about this time.
, it seems that he will also make a lot of money in the near future.
The most important thing is that because Lin Zhu kept a low profile, she did not attract too much attention. Even the emperor praised her for her character. This was also the news that Empress Lan came from the palace.
"But in the final analysis, this matter will still have an impact on your reputation," General Chang said in a deep voice. He could not suffer this loss in vain. "I will send people to investigate this matter. The attitude of some people outside, you
Don't pay attention. If they dare to go too far, I will definitely teach them a lesson." General Chang felt that we should not be bullied to the point of being bullied. If we don't fight back and the tiger doesn't show its power, do we really think that we are old and infirm?!
In addition, General Chang was also dissatisfied with Mu Qiyue. As an old man, he could not see that these rumors were all aimed at Lin Zhu. It was not because he did not know where to show mercy. It seemed that for him and him
Lin Zhu's matter needs to be carefully considered.
Mu Qiyue, who was also shot while lying down, felt very helpless. He secretly resented the thought of someone who had no foresight to hit him. That's why he was so passive in front of General Chang and Lin Zhu.
However, in order to ease the matter, Mu Qiyue did not go directly to Lin Zhu's home, nor did he go to General Chang's Mansion to explain. However, he immediately wrote letters to General Chang and Lin Zhu respectively, stating that he had nothing to do with him.
While flirting with others, he also expressed his willingness to investigate to the end. This relieved some of General Chang's anger.
Although it is a rumor, it is also a rumor that is close to the truth, but it is not a woman chasing a man as everyone thinks, but a man chasing a woman.
However, this rumor made the people in Prince Qing's Mansion unable to sit still. After all, they did not want Mu Qiyue to find a Yue family that would be helpful to him and detrimental to others.
General Chang's Mansion happens to be a family that Prince Qing and others are afraid of. Although General Chang is no longer in the army, his influence is still there. In addition, the emperor still treats the Chang family preferentially and has the support of Concubine Lan. If Mu Qiyue really becomes
Wouldn't the Chang family's son-in-law be even more powerful? This is not what some people in Prince Qing's palace want to see.
Although Prince Qing allowed Mu Qiyue to return to his residence in the name of filial piety, and his yard was much better than before, Mu Qiyue did not return to Prince Qing's residence every day.
However, if people from Prince Qing's Mansion want to find him, they only need to go to Muyue Trading Company, and someone will receive him. It is no longer like before when no one paid any attention to him.
"Call him back. I want to ask him why he came back in such a mess after being out for a while? Where does he want the face of Prince Qing's Palace?" Prince Qing's Palace was furious in the palace.
Princess Changmin's Mansion.
Princess Changmin was a little worried about this rumor. Mu Qiyue had also mentioned to her about Lin Zhu and his thoughts before. Princess Changmin made up her mind after seeing him, and Lin Zhu was very good in both status and ability. Princess Changmin
I don't have any opinions.
But the rumors will hurt the reputation of the two people after all. Moreover, both of their families are well-known people, and they will not be exposed so easily. If both parties stand up and say that there is absolutely no such thing, then Mu Qiyue and Lin Zhu
It will be difficult to get together again.
Therefore, Princess Changmin was a little anxious and wanted to find Mu Qiyue and ask him how to deal with this matter. So she also sent someone to Muyue Trading Company to find him.
Likewise, as someone who is very close to Lin Zhu, I am very angry that someone actually wants to tarnish Lin Zhu's reputation in this way.
In the Dong Mansion, while Mrs. Lin and Dong Yuzhen were also worried about Lin Zhu, Dong Yuyao and Mrs. Liu were watching the joke together.
"Humph, you are so shameless. You are quite good at clinging to powerful people at such a young age." Mrs. Liu sat with Dong Yuyao in Mrs. Lin's yard in the name of greeting her. From time to time, she mocked the rumors in the capital that were not conducive to Lin Zhu.
In addition, Mrs. Lin and Dong Yuzhen were crowded around. "Yao'er will associate with any young lady from any family in the future, but she must be seen clearly as a person. Do you understand?"
"Yes." Ever since Dong Jisheng came to Prince Qi's Mansion, Dong Yuyao specially asked Mrs. Liu to hire a tutoring mother to teach her etiquette and rules. She has achieved some results and she understands the rules better than before. But she still speaks like Mrs. Liu,
He speaks without restraint and is very off-putting.
"The ladies of the Lin family are all famous ladies. You must learn from them." Ms. Liu was very satisfied with Dong Yuyao's current performance, and also heard that many ladies had a good impression of her, so she was naturally very proud.
Showing off in front of Mrs. Lin.
There was deep disdain in Mrs. Lin's eyes. She couldn't control what her mother-in-law did, and she didn't want to deliberately please her four brothers. She had never been close to the eldest brother and the third brother. The second brother was serious and never showed his affection for her easily.
However, Mrs. Lin still saw from some things that this second brother did not have much regard for her.
Maybe it was because they were both concubines, but the fourth brother was very good to her. So when Dong Yuzhen went to the Lin Mansion, the sisters in the second brother and the fourth brother's family got along very well. Mrs. Lin had no regrets.
It's just that they can't stand the way Liu and Dong Yuyao are succeeding, and they often ignore their provocations.
But this time it involved Lin Zhu, Mrs. Lin was very surprised, "It's right for my sister to think like this. All ladies have the same way of doing things as other ladies. It's good for Yu Yao to learn from it, but the girls in the boudoir are the worst."
Avoid these rumors. If you don’t pay more attention outside, you will inevitably be seen as a frivolous person, and the gain will outweigh the loss."
Mrs. Lin's words immediately changed the faces of Mrs. Liu and her daughter. In an instant, Mrs. Liu's anger rushed to her head. Just when she was about to fight back at Mrs. Lin, she was stopped by her daughter who turned pale.
.
"That's what mother taught you." Obviously Dong Yuyao understood the warning in Mrs. Lin's words. After being taught for such a long time, Dong Yuyao knew these rules much better than Liu. A young lady in a boudoir, for such a relationship between men and women
The rumors are not
You should inquire more, it is best to stay away, but you and your mother-in-law are so grand in front of the Dong family, even discussing with ridicule, if Mrs. Lin uses her rights as the wife of the wife to let herself and her mother Liu
It is understandable that he should be grounded.
And even though Mrs. Liu was showing off her power in the Dong Mansion, she was not very proficient in the dealings between ladies, and sometimes she even made jokes. This necessitated the need for Mrs. Lin to take charge of the overall situation of the manor.
Because of this, some Dong Yuyao will restrain their attitudes and try not to leave any excuses in front of Mrs. Lin.
Seeing her daughter bowing her head, Mrs. Liu wanted to regain her face, but under Dong Yuyao's warning eyes, she gave up. The two left Mrs. Lin's yard in dejection.
"Mom, what should I do with Sister Xiaozhu?" Dong Yuzhen revealed her worries only after the Lius and their daughters left.
"These are all groundless things. I believe the General's Office will handle it well." Mrs. Lin frowned, knowing clearly that even though she said that, the rumors had already caused harm to Lin Zhu's reputation, and her marriage would be in danger.
Things have gotten a little rough.
