Just as Mu Yun'an was thinking about it, he saw Lin Mingfu kneeling on the ground and said: "Your Majesty, I did get married when I was young, but after I became the top student in high school, I received a letter from home saying that Ping Niang had died of illness.
At that time, I wanted to go back to attend the funeral, but everything got so entangled that I ended up letting it go. Later, my mentor favored me and betrothed his daughter to me.
I thought that Ping Niang was dead and there was no flesh and blood between us, so I did not tell Madam about this.
For so many years, I never knew that Ping Niang was still alive. Not only was she alive, but she also gave birth to a daughter for me.
I can swear to God that I have never abandoned my wife or daughter, and I have never written any divorce papers. Please be careful, Your Majesty."
Mu Yunan: "..."
Is this love still an unsolved case? Prime Minister Lin insisted that he had never written a divorce letter, but Lin Luowei said that her mother had received a divorce letter that year.
Who is lying? Or is there something hidden?
Prime Minister Lin asked Xiao Chengyi to investigate, but these are old things. How to investigate?
Xiao Chengyi raised his eyebrows, looked at Lin Mingfu who was kneeling on the ground and said: "Then this matter is really strange. The prime minister keeps saying that he has never written a divorce letter. How did the divorce letter come from?"
As he said that, he looked at Lin Luowei and asked, "Does Miss Lin have the letter of divorce in her hand?"
Lin Luowei nodded, took out a yellowed letter from her arms and handed it to Xiao Chengyi, saying: "I still have this letter of divorce among my mother's belongings."
After Xiao Chengyi took it, he unfolded it and took a look. The letter was already yellowed, and it looked like it was old at first glance.
He scanned the contents of the letter, then handed the divorce letter to Lin Mingfu and said, "Prime Minister Lin, is this your handwriting?"
After Lin Mingfu took it, he looked at the content of the letter. His expression suddenly changed and he said: "No, this is not my handwriting. Although this handwriting is somewhat similar to mine, it is not mine. Your Majesty, please follow my usual writings."
As a comparison."
Xiao Chengyi had indeed seen Lin Mingfu's document. There were some discrepancies between his handwriting and this divorce letter. He clicked his tongue and said, "This is strange. Since the divorce letter was not written by the Prime Minister, then who wrote it?"
As he said that, he looked at Mrs. Lin and asked, "Who do you think it could be, Mrs. Lin?"
Mrs. Lin said with a pale face: "I don't know, I only found out today that I have been married before."
Xiao Chengyi raised his eyebrows and asked again: "Miss Lin said that when Su Ping'er was seriously ill, she wrote a letter to the Prime Minister to inform him of Miss Lin's existence. I wonder if the Prime Minister has ever received this letter.
?”
Lin Mingfu was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I haven't received any letters. If I knew about Luo Wei's existence, I would definitely take her back to the capital in person."
Xiao Chengyi nodded and said: "Miss Lin was assassinated on her way to Beijing. The maid next to her was killed to protect her. Fortunately, she met me and escaped.
Speaking of which, this is your family matter, Mr. Xiang, and it is not appropriate for me to interfere. But if a life is lost at the foot of the capital, it is not a trivial matter. I have already notified Dali Temple to find out the origin of the assassin.
As for Miss Lin, since the prime minister has never divorced his wife, she is the legitimate daughter of the prime minister's house. I hope the prime minister will treat this lost daughter well and not let her suffer any further injustice."
"yes."
Lin Mingfu leaned over and bowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for saving my little girl's life. I will definitely return everything I owe to Luo Wei to her, and I will not let her suffer any more injustice. Please rest assured, Your Majesty."
