The wronged female supporting role made a comeback with a divine reply

Chapter 114 Dad, You Are So Stupid

Emperor Yongkang was a little surprised. He thought Marquis Guangping was going to kneel down and beg for mercy! But it turned out to be a fight between brothers!

That’s not right. Are they “pleading” with each other?

Haha, this is interesting!

Emperor Yongkang was no longer anxious, and said calmly, "So, the Lin family's heirloom jade token was not lost, nor was it faked?"

"Your Majesty, it is indeed true!" After Lin Anren saluted, he took out the jade token from his pocket, presented it with both hands, and said, "Your Majesty, look, the jade token is intact."

The chief eunuch carefully took the jade tablet and presented it to Emperor Yongkang.

Emperor Yongkang watched for a long time and felt that it was real no matter how he looked at it. He frowned and said to Master Lin Er: "Captain Lin! You are so brave! Do you know what is the crime of deceiving the emperor?"

Master Lin Er was not panicked, but secretly delighted. He pretended to be terrified and said, "I dare not deceive Your Majesty. We can only find a great master to test whether this jade token is real or not!"

"Well! Okay." Obviously, the emperor also knew that the real jade token had mysterious energy attached to it.

After a while, Li Rongyue entered the imperial study.

"Rong Yue, come and take a look at what's wrong with the Lin family's jade token."

"Yes!"

Li Rongyue took it and looked at it carefully. After a while, he replied, "Your Majesty, I don't see anything wrong with this jade token."

"Impossible!" Master Lin Er suddenly became anxious. "Commander Li, you are at the level of a grandmaster. How can you not tell whether there is mysterious energy on this jade token?"

A hint of sharpness flashed across Li Rongyue's cold and handsome face, and he said sarcastically, "Captain Lin is really interesting. My Li family also has this heirloom jade token. If I can't tell whether it's real or fake, then am I still worthy of being a descendant of the Li family?"

This made a lot of sense, and Master Lin Er's face froze, but he still said unwillingly: "Your Majesty, please find another grandmaster to appraise it!"

Li Rongyue then taunted, "Is Captain Lin trying to distrust me?"

Master Lin Er said nothing, but just looked at Emperor Yongkang firmly.

Emperor Yongkang understood what he meant. He thought Li Rongyue was deliberately shielding the Lin family. Although Emperor Yongkang also had this concern, he could not say so.

"In that case, I will let you give up. Come, please invite the two grandmasters."

While waiting, Prince Lin and Li Rongyue had a momentary eye contact, which happened to be seen by Emperor Yongkang. Li Rongyue had a blank expression on her face, as cold as usual.

Prince Lin nodded slightly and turned his eyes away naturally.

Emperor Yongkang chuckled and thought to himself that he was overthinking.

After a while, two middle-aged men at the Grandmaster level came and looked at the jade token carefully for a while, and directly replied: "It's true!"

"What?" Master Lin was shocked. How could this be possible? Could it be that Lin Wantang had not stolen the real jade token at all?

It's impossible. Cheng Jiayu is so satisfied with the jade pendant, how could it be fake?

There must be something wrong here!

It was obvious that the one handed over to the Bai family was a fake. Could it be possible that the Bai family would return a real one?

Master Lin Er had no clue and looked dejected. Emperor Yongkang ordered his men to drag him away and dismiss him from his post for investigation.

The farce ended here.

Emperor Yongkang rubbed his head and asked everyone to leave. Li Rongyue still had a blank expression on her face. She said goodbye to Emperor Yongkang and left without even looking at the father and son of the Lin family.

Marquis Guangping and his son breathed a sigh of relief after returning home, remembering that Bai Zhaozhao had sent a message saying that he could ask Bai Lin to help find Li Rongyue.

At first, Prince Lin didn't believe that Li Rongyue would help them, but Bai Lin actually did it. He took the Li family's jade token from Li Rongyue and asked Bai Hao to secretly hand it over to the Lin family.

Therefore, no matter how you test it, the jade pendant is real!

Guangping Hou looked exhausted: "I didn't expect your second uncle to hate me so much!"

Lin Shizi couldn't help but ask, "Dad, why did he do this?"

"Alas, this is a long story, but it's okay to tell you." Marquis Guangping said slowly, "Back then, he fell in love with a woman, but your grandmother disagreed and forced him to marry your second aunt. He was unwilling to do so, so after his eldest son was born, he took in several concubines."

"So what does this have to do with Dad?"

"Alas, the girl he liked had fallen into poverty, so he arranged for her to be his mistress. However, our Lin family has always been strict about family traditions. Your grandfather was very angry at the time and asked him to get rid of the mistress, but he refused and knelt in the ancestral hall for five days. Then I..."

Guangping Hou paused, not knowing what to say, but Lin Anren understood: "Dad, you told grandfather that you had helped him deal with the concubine, but in fact you hid the woman somewhere else, and she died after giving birth to the child?"

"Yes, when I told him that I had settled him, he was very grateful to me. Who could have known that something like this would happen? It just so happened that your mother thought the concubine was mine and had a big fight with me. Your second uncle hated me, so he also said that the concubine was mine and that it was your mother who killed her!"

"Dad, you are so confused! You are not responsible for this matter at all! Why are you taking the blame for him?"

"Alas, when your second aunt found out the truth, she immediately had a miscarriage. The imperial physician said that she would never have a child again! She was innocent to begin with, and your second uncle took a concubine and a mistress, so I felt that it was our Lin family who had let her down..."

Prince Lin suddenly realized, "So three years ago, when Second Aunt said she wanted to practice being the head of the household before the division, you agreed?"

"Ok!"

Prince Lin said helplessly: "Dad, you are really... so stupid!"

"What did you say?" Marquis Guangping was stunned.

"How inappropriate it is for you to take the blame for him while letting your mother take the responsibility for you!"

"What do you mean? Husband and wife are one! Your mother..."

"Forget it, Dad, let's think about the patrol camp!"

The two were talking in the room, but Lin Anhe, who was standing at the door, felt like he was struck by lightning!

The concubine is my second uncle’s!

OMG!

Could it be that Miss Bai is the daughter of my second uncle? No, no, how can this be possible?

So Lin Anhe turned around and left silently. He had originally wanted to tell his father about the matter of the concubine, but now it seemed better not to say anything.

On this day, there was a grand court meeting.

Bai Lin took the initiative to stand up and said, "Your Majesty, I think that Marquis Guangping did not manage his family strictly, which led to rumors in the capital. He should be punished!"

As soon as these words came out, an official immediately stood up and said, "What do you mean, Mr. Bai? I heard that the Guangping Marquis's Mansion has reconciled with your sister. It is really inappropriate for you to bring up this matter in the court again!"

Marquis Guangping stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I accept the punishment!"

Emperor Yongkang asked with great interest: "What does Bai Zhuangyuan mean by the punishment?"

Bai Lin said, "As the saying goes, if you can't clean up your own house, how can you clean up the world? Guangping Marquis doesn't manage his family well, so he might not manage his army well. Why don't you let the Marquis pay for some famous doctors to give a free consultation to the entire patrol camp?"

Minister Liu came to his senses and looked at Bai Lin in horror. What on earth did he know?

After receiving Minister Liu's gaze, an official also stood up and asked, "Mr. Bai, what does this lax military discipline have to do with free clinics? I don't think it's necessary. The patrol camp has always been safe, and Lord Lin has never made any mistakes. You are just trying to take this opportunity to mess with Lord Lin!"
