Chapter 258 You decide for yourself.
"Yes, I designed you, but don't you have any responsibility? You did it even though you knew it was wrong..."
"If you hadn't drugged me, would I have mistaken you for Lian'er?" Lin Yanfu said angrily.
"Do you think that bitch Xu Lian is any good..."
"Don't insult my mother." Lin Yiyi interrupted Zeng Qin coldly.
Just as he finished speaking, the butler said respectfully outside the hall: "Master, someone is coming from the palace."
Lin Yanfu's chest rose and fell violently. He looked at the housekeeper and said, "Come in."
"Yes."
A moment later, Hong Fu walked in quickly with the imperial edict in his hand, and shouted in a shrill voice: "Your Majesty's order."
Lin Yanfu's expression changed and he immediately went forward to receive the order.
Lin Wanwan pulled Zeng Qin to kneel, and Lin Yiyi also knelt down respectfully to receive the order.
"The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims that the Prime Minister's wife Zeng Qin colluded with bandits and minted coins privately. This is an unforgivable crime. She is to be immediately imprisoned in the Imperial Prison and tried by Lord Pei himself. I decree this!"
"The minister accepts the order."
Lin Yanfu accepted the order expressionlessly.
Zeng Qin collapsed to the ground in despair after hearing this, muttering, "It's over, it's over..."
"Mom..." Lin Wanwan started crying.
"Wan'er..."
"Take her away." Hong Fu mercilessly ordered people to take Zeng Qin away.
"mother!"
"Wan'er..."
Lin Wanwan hugged Zeng Qin tightly, not letting anyone take her away. Hong Fu looked at Lin Wanwan coldly and said, "Second Miss, do you want to disobey the order?"
Lin Yanfu looked at the housekeeper and said sternly, "Hurry up and pull her away."
"Yes."
The housekeeper hurriedly asked someone to pull Lin Wanwan away.
“Mom!” Lin Wanwan cried out, watching her mother being taken away. She immediately knelt down in front of Lin Yanfu and cried out, “Dad, please save mom. She was really forced to die by those bandits. You can’t just stand by and watch her die.”
“Shut up!” Lin Yanfu glared at Lin Wanwan and said to the housekeeper, “Enter the palace.”
"Father!" Lin Yiyi looked at Lin Yanfu with some concern.
Lin Yanfu looked at Lin Yiyi with gentle eyes and said, "It's okay. I am only going to the palace to plead guilty. Your Majesty has made a holy judgment and the Lin family will not be harmed."
"But... Zeng Qin is from the Lin family after all. If His Majesty blames her, father, you will also..."
"Don't worry, if His Majesty really blames the Lin family, the decree just now is not just aimed at Zeng Qin alone."
Lin Yiyi suddenly lowered her head and said guiltily: "Father, it's all my fault. I didn't think about this matter enough and was selfish."
"I don't blame you. I want to thank you for exposing Zeng Qin's true face. I have been kept in the dark for more than ten years and married a woman who harmed Lian'er. I'm afraid Lian'er will never forgive me in her grave."
"Father, mother won't blame you. It was Zeng Qin who was too hateful and framed you."
"Forget it, I will go to the palace first." He then looked at Lin Wanwan helplessly. Even though Zeng Qin had done many evil things, Lin Wanwan was still his daughter after all. He told Xiaohuan beside him, "Take your daughter back and ask for a doctor."
"Yes."
Xiaohuan respectfully helped Lin Wanwan up and walked out.
Lin Yiyi looked at Lin Yanfu and said softly, "Father, is it really okay for you to go into the palace alone?"
"nothing."
After Lin Yiyi watched Lin Yanfu leave, she walked towards Lin Wanwan's yard.
Inside the house, Lin Wanwan was throwing things around like crazy, and the porcelain was shattered all over the floor. Xiaohuan shouted worriedly, "Miss, be careful not to hurt yourself."
"Bang!" Lin Wanwan threw the teacup in her hand towards Xiaohuan.
The teacup hit Xiaohuan's forehead, and Xiaohuan screamed "Ah" and fell to the ground.
Seeing this, Lin Wanwan quickly walked up to Xiaohuan, grabbed her chin, and said angrily, "Why are you shouting? Does it hurt?"
Xiaohuan shook her head in fear.
Lin Wanwan looked at Xiaohuan viciously with a resentful look in her eyes, "I have been harmed to this extent, where is the doctor you hired? Why hasn't he come yet?"
"Miss, calm down. The doctor will be here soon."
"Waste!" Lin Wanwan slapped Xiaohuan's red face and said sternly, "What's the use of you!"
Xiao Huan's face was burning with pain, but she could not care about herself and immediately knelt down and said, "Miss, please spare me, please spare me!"
"What's wrong? You have so much anger that you take it out on an innocent person?" Lin Yiyi's cold voice rang out from outside the house.
Lin Wanwan immediately turned her head to look over, and saw Lin Yiyi slowly walking in with her arms folded across her chest.
"Are you here to laugh at me?" Lin Wanwan stared at Lin Yiyi.
Lin Yiyi glanced at Xiaohuan who was kneeling on the ground and said softly, "Go down."
Xiaohuan looked at Lin Wanwan with some fear and didn't dare to leave.
Lin Wanwan looked at Xiaohuan with disdain, "Why don't you get out of here?"
Xiaohuan immediately nodded and said, "Yes." Then she quickly stood up and left.
Even though her mouth was ulcerated and her face looked a little embarrassed, Lin Wanwan still kicked away the broken porcelain at her feet with a proud attitude and sat on the stool, "Lin Yiyi, you hurt my mother, I will not let you go."
“Humph, when you have the ability, if you say this again, I will think you still have a chance, but now…” Lin Yiyi looked Lin Wanwan up and down, and said with a smile: “Don’t you think this is ridiculous?”
"You..." Lin Wanwan immediately slapped the table and stood up.
Lin Yiyi's eyes moved slightly, and she quickly patted Lin Wanwan's shoulder, forcing Lin Wanwan to sit back on the stool.
Lin Wanwan looked at Lin Yiyi angrily, "What are you going to do..."
Before she finished her words, Lin Yiyi quickly pinched Lin Wanwan's chin and threw the medicine in her hand into Lin Wanwan's mouth.
Then he let her go with disgust.
“Ahem…” Lin Wanwan looked at Lin Yiyi warily, “What did you give me to eat?”
"If you don't want to die, don't talk."
Lin Wanwan shut her mouth immediately.
Lin Yiyi looked at Lin Wanwan's embarrassed face and said with a smile: "Your mother's crime is unforgivable, it's because she brought it upon herself. If you want to help your mother, it will harm the Lin family. You should weigh the pros and cons yourself."
After saying that, Lin Yiyi turned around and left gracefully, leaving Lin Wanwan looking at the debris on the ground with a puzzled look on her face.
In Qing Garden.
Pei Zhijin was helping Jiang Xue wash the vegetables she brought back when Wen Yu suddenly appeared in the kitchen and said respectfully, "Sir, there is an imperial decree from the palace."
Pei Zhijin was busy with his work, and said without even raising his head: "Speak."
Wen Yu glanced at Jiang Xue who was cutting meat nearby, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Pei Zhijin looked up at Wen Yu and said, "What are you waiting for?"
Jiang Xue looked up at Wen Yu, who then said, "The Prime Minister's wife has been taken to the imperial prison. His Majesty has asked you to thoroughly investigate the matter, find out the location of the bandits, and destroy them in one fell swoop."
"Okay, got it." Pei Zhijin replied softly, then lowered his head and began to wash the vegetables.
The atmosphere suddenly became quiet. Wen Yu looked at the two people busy with their own things. He didn't know what to do for a moment and stood there motionless.
When Jiang Xue was about to put the sliced meat aside, she saw Wen Yu blocking her way and said, "You... are blocking my way."
