"Nonsense, can such a thing be speculated at random?" Mr. Lin reprimanded angrily after hearing Lin Shurui's words. "Qingyue lost her own child and worked hard to raise the concubine's son for so many years. Could it be that
Is there anyone who looks like him who is Prince Qi’s son?”
Mr. Lin was very angry at Lin Shurui's ignorance of the importance. If it was reported that Prince Qi had other children, how big a stir would it cause. Prince Qi's reputation, the identity of the young prince, and Lin Qingyue's years of enduring humiliation will all be criticized by the world.
Question. So, what kind of consequences will the Lin family who provoked this matter have? It is simply unimaginable.
"Father, the key is not that he looks like the young prince, but that he looks very similar to Prince Qi. Qingxue has met Prince Qi, and she will definitely not admit it." Lin Shurui thinks this matter should be investigated. "
I always feel that this matter is a bit strange, and after hearing what Xue'er said, I felt very uneasy, so I came to discuss it with you."
"Didn't she say that because she was jealous of Zhu Yatou?" At this time, Mr. Lin didn't really believe Lin Qingxue's words.
"Father, originally Xue'er wanted to come back as soon as Xiaoqi was dropped off. It was because she saw the child that she stayed until the end. Moreover, they stayed together for some time. It was very clear that she had always been smart and wanted to come back.
You will talk nonsense about this kind of thing." Lin Shurui said some kind words for his daughter, hoping that Mr. Lin would not be so angry with her.
"Huh, I know what she is like." After seeing through Lin Shurui's plan, Mr. Lin snorted. She is his granddaughter. To be strict with her is a deep responsibility, and he loves her deeply. He cannot see through this at all.
"Go and call her over, and I'll ask her myself." Mr. Lin relaxed and asked Lin Shurui to take Lin Qingxue to his study.
"Grandpa, Qingxue has let you down. I will be careful in my words and deeds in the future. I will also love and treat my brothers and sisters with kindness." After Lin Qingxue came to Mr. Lin's study, she knelt on the ground to express her repentance.
"Okay, get up." Mr. Lin waved his hand. "Since you also know that you were wrong, I will forgive you this time, but if you let me know that there will be a next time, it will not be as simple as grounding you. You understand
Are you done?" Although I felt a little distressed when I saw Lin Qingxue's red and swollen eyes from crying and her cheeks that were red from wiping constantly, I still gave her a stern warning.
"Granddaughter, I respect your teachings." Lin Qingxue kowtowed again. Then at Old Man Lin's signal, she stood up and sat on a chair nearby.
"You said you saw a child who looked very similar to Prince Qi's youngest son at General Chang's Mansion, right?" Mr. Lin picked up the tea cup, but his eyes were looking directly into Lin Qingxue's.
"Yes, grandpa. When he first came in, I was startled. I thought it was because I was dazzled. When I was eating, I looked at his face carefully again. I was shocked to realize that they were really alike. If there wasn't the tattoo on his forehead,
His scars are most similar to those of Prince Qi." Lin Qingxue did not exaggerate at all, and told Mr. Lin exactly what she saw, "And I heard that he is the same age as the young prince."
After listening to this, Mr. Lin pondered expressionlessly. He could see that Lin Qingxue was not lying, which meant that the child from General Chang's Mansion, Lin Zhu's younger brother, was really very similar to Prince Qi or himself.
.
Mr. Lin didn't dare to think about the worst. Now he still has a glimmer of hope, hoping that this is just a coincidence. Now all he can do is go to General Chang to find the answer.
"Don't mention this matter to anyone in the future. Your mother will also ask your father to warn you, do you understand?" Mr. Lin's tone was deep, which made Lin Qingxue shudder. She nodded quickly and said
A guarantee was made.
"I would never say that."
"Although you already know your mistakes, if you do something wrong, you will be punished. You will be grounded for a month and copy the Women's Code a hundred times. Are you willing?" Mr. Lin's words made Lin Qingxue lower her head.
"I do." Lin Qingxue had no choice but to nod under Mr. Lin's momentum.
A few days later, Mr. Lin chose a time to meet with General Chang.
"Brother Chang, I invite you here this time because there is something unclear. Please tell me, Brother Chang." Although Mr. Lin's face was calm, his eyes moved slightly, which still revealed that he was in a very uneasy mood at this time.
.
"Brother Lin has something to say, but it's okay to ask." General Chang noticed the seriousness in Mr. Lin's words. Although he didn't know what he wanted to ask, it must be relevant, otherwise he wouldn't have chosen such a villa of the Lin family.
"What is the identity of Zhu Yatou's younger brother?" Mr. Lin didn't mince words.
"Why did Brother Lin think of asking this?" General Chang was shocked, but he remained calm on the surface. "Fu Dou'er was picked up by Zhu Yatou at night when she was in Linjia Village." This kind of thing happened all the time.
We found out after checking, so General Chang didn't hide anything. "However, I heard that the weather was very cold at that time, but the child didn't have any clothes to keep out the cold. If he hadn't been picked up by Zhu Yatou, his life would have been difficult to save. That's why he was called Fu Dou'er.
of."
"Then he doesn't have anything on him to prove his identity?" Mr. Lin heard what General Chang said, but he was still a little dissatisfied.
"If there was, Zhu Yatou would have gone to find his biological parents long ago. After all, she was also a child at that time. It was really difficult to raise such a three-month-old baby." General Chang's words made Mr. Lin listen.
It was very harsh, but he also knew that he couldn't refute it.
"I wonder if General Chang has noticed that that child seems to be very similar to a certain person." Although what General Chang said was true, Mr. Lin always felt that something was wrong, as if something was missing, so he asked.
"Has Brother Lin seen Fu Dou'er?" General Chang asked with some surprise, why didn't he let the two of them meet immediately? "I think he looks like Prince Qi, and I also told Mu Si about this.
Son, but there is no result."
General Chang's confession made Mr. Lin a little confused. He was unwilling to ask something, but he had no way of asking. Moreover, General Chang had already mentioned this matter to Mu Qiyue, who was friends with Prince Qi. He wanted to come to Qi.
The prince also knew about the existence of this child. Since he didn't say anything, it meant that this child actually had nothing to do with him.
Although Mr. Lin felt that he was right in thinking this way, he felt increasingly uneasy in his heart. General Chang's expression said, "What else do you want to know? I will answer everything you know." This made Mr. Lin even more uneasy.
Does he really want to ask Lin Qingyue? Is this appropriate? What if it really causes a big mess? What will happen to the Lin family then? This makes Mr. Lin very entangled.
Mr. Lin suddenly remembered something that almost made him break into a cold sweat.
A few years ago, when Lin Qingyue told the Lin family that she was interested in Prince Qi, everyone in the family was opposed to it. After all, she was the eldest daughter of the Lin family, and the whole family also had high hopes for her.
With Prince Qi's attitude towards the princess at that time, outsiders could not get in at all. Besides, Prince Qi's attitude was also very resolute, and he had already stated that he would not accept anyone except the princess.
Lin Qingyue is destined to be wishful thinking and will not have good results. After constant persuasion from the Lin family, she ostensibly promised not to put her mind on Prince Qi anymore, and after a period of observation, the Lin family did feel that she
Already let go.
Unexpectedly, Lin Qingyue finally made an astonishing move. She secretly planned to make Prince Qi drunk and be in the same room with her, and let Princess Qi see it with her own eyes. In this way, she successfully became Prince Qi.
side room.
This incident made Mr. Lin discover that his granddaughter Chengfu was so deep that even he was deceived by her. However, the matter was already like this, and Mr. Lin could not do anything about it. However, because he was too angry with Lin Qingyue's behavior,
For a long time, I didn't ask anything about her.
Furthermore, although Prince Qi never got close to her again after that, Lin Qingyue still loved Prince Qi as usual. Coincidentally, she and Princess Qi became pregnant at the same time and gave birth at the same time. Princess Qi suffered from dystocia and died.
died, and Lin Qingyue lost her child.
After Lin Qingyue offered to raise Princess Qi's child, Mr. Lin felt that she had repented, and his attitude towards her became much better. After Prince Qi recognized her, he also allowed her to return to the Lin family.
But now, Mr. Lin is not sure. He has some doubts that Lin Qingyue has really changed, or has done something more terrible, something that can make the entire Lin family buried with her.
The clothes on his back were almost all wet. A gust of wind blew outside the window, and Mr. Lin was surprised to feel a little chilly.
He looked at General Chang and knew that he couldn't ask anything else from him, so he had to bury the matter in his heart and let someone he trusted secretly investigate.
In fact, General Chang was not at peace at this time. Although they had always known that Fu Dou'er would eventually be discovered, and had already made some people aware of Fu Dou'er's existence, they did not expect that the Lin family would find out so early.
In fact, after several years of open and covert investigations, they found that Fu Dou'er's matter had nothing to do with the Lin family, and Lin Qingyue did it very neatly, and she almost erased all useful clues.
This makes their search work very slow. Therefore, it is not a good time to tell Mr. Lin the truth at this time. Without the most fundamental evidence, the Lin family will not believe it. In addition, Lin Qingyue is now in Prince Qi’s house.
She has a very high status, and many people speak very well of her. She rashly revealed the matter, fearing that she would use it to harm Fu Dou'er.
Therefore, General Chang left the Lin Family Courtyard with Mr. Lin's doubtful eyes.
