The concubine is soft and delicate, making her the treacherous minister's white moonlight

Chapter 203: Watch him for me

It was unknown whether those words touched Lin Mowan's heart deeply, but her expression changed almost uncontrollably, and she stood up abruptly, as if only this condescending attitude could prevent others from seeing through her.

Guo Yinli frowned and leaned back cautiously, but did not avoid her gaze. The moment their eyes met, Lin Mowan's rationality was instantly restored a little, which also made her expression slightly eased.

She chuckled, as if to cover up her previous gaffe, and then said, "You are not my mother, what qualifications do you have to speak for her?"

As she spoke, the polite smile in her eyes disappeared, replaced by an unfathomable coldness. She naturally knew that Guo Yinli came to persuade her to stop for her own good, but not all things could be smoothed over by a few kind words of advice.

Lin Mowan's words immediately left Guo Yinli speechless. Although it was an ending he had expected, when he really heard her say it, he still felt mixed emotions.

In the end, he didn't say anything else. To be precise, it wasn't that he didn't want to say anything, but he knew it was useless to say it. She would not let it go until the entire Jiang family was buried with Lin Yirou.

Perhaps it was the deep impression left on him by the case back then, as well as the torment of feeling helpless yet worried, that made Guo Yinli always feel a little sympathy for the little girl in front of him.

Guo Yinli sighed, slowly stood up, and finally decided not to say anything. However, he couldn't help but sigh at the end: "Maybe I can't empathize with you, but I sincerely hope that you can get out of the shadow of that incident, and... I'm sorry."

After he said that, without waiting for Lin Mowan's reaction, he turned around and walked out the door. When Lin Mowan relaxed from her extreme nervousness and slowly turned around to look, she could no longer see Guo Yinli.

She staggered and fell into a chair as if she was completely limp. Yuzhi, who came over, saw her. She took two steps forward and said, "Girl, are you okay?"

Lin Mowan closed her eyes, suppressing the anger that threatened to burst out in her heart. She clenched her fists, calmed herself down a little, and when she opened her eyes again, she had suppressed all her emotions.

She slowly raised her head and met Yuzhi's eyes, which were filled with worry. She suddenly asked, "You can do whatever I ask you to do, right?"

Since Shen Weiyuan arranged for them to serve her and gave her the right to order them around, it meant that as long as it didn't harm the Shen family, they would go back and do it.

But Yuzhi knew that if it was not a very special matter, Lin Mowan would not deliberately ask this, but would directly order their people to do it.

But after a little hesitation, Yuzhi nodded: "Yes, as long as it is the lady's order, we will do our best until our death."

Lin Mowan looked at her and shook her head. "I don't need you to die. Help me keep an eye on Guo Yinli. If he shows any abnormality, kill him immediately."

She gritted her teeth and stared at Yuzhi. God knew how scared she was at the moment. She was not afraid that the simple matter would be exposed, but she was afraid that if the matter was exposed, her plan would not be completed.

She was not afraid of becoming the target of public criticism. With the entire Jiang family buried with her, she did not feel lonely at all.

But who is Guo Yinli? Although he holds a low official position, because of his fair, honest and upright style of doing things, there are as many people who admire him as there are people who are afraid of him and are willing to support him. Among them are many powerful people, and may even include Shen Weiyuan.

Obviously, Yuzhi hesitated. She looked at the man in front of her with red eyes, and for a moment she didn't know whether she should agree to her. So when Lin Mowan held her hand and urged her again, Yuzhi came to her senses quickly, reached out to hug her, and comforted her: "Okay, girl, it's okay, I promise you, we will keep an eye on him and won't let him ruin your business." With Yuzhi's assurance, Lin Mowan's emotions gradually stabilized. She originally thought that even if Guo Yinli knew, he would just turn a blind eye, but she never thought that he would come to her in person.

He has come here in person, and if persuasion fails, what if he really goes to Gongshu Yanyu to report him, wouldn't all our efforts be wasted?
She would never allow such a thing to happen. The most sensible thing she could do now was to have someone keep an eye on him first. This would prevent him from acting rashly. Lin Mowan would not let anyone kill him, and vice versa.

Yuzhi hugged her and comforted her gently. This was not the first time that Yuzhi had encountered such a situation. This would happen whenever Lin Mowan had an attack. In serious cases, she would vomit blood and tremble all over. Now the situation was considered good.

After bringing Lin Mowan back to the courtyard and soothing her to sleep, Yuzhi carefully left the room and informed Shen Weiyuan of the whole incident...

Meanwhile, the Royal Palace.

Gongshu Tingyue sat beside the Queen Mother, looking somewhat worried. The Queen Mother patted her back gently and knew why.

This was the umpteenth time that Gongshu Tingyue had come to her palace to beg her for help in so many days. The empress dowager was a little annoyed, but facing this child who had been spoiled since childhood, she still couldn't bear to say anything harsh.

"Empress Dowager, please, please ask for mercy from my brother the Emperor. Wenqing was just bewildered for a moment. Please give him a chance to mend his ways."

As Gongshu Tingyue spoke, he raised his head slightly, revealing his eyes which were a little red and swollen from crying over the past few days, and he looked pitifully at the kind-looking old lady in front of him.

But the Queen Mother was obviously at a loss as to what to do about this matter. After all, it was Gongshu Tingyue who took the initiative to tell Gongshu Yanyu what had happened.

Although it was said in private, Gongshu Yanyu was a man who attached great importance to the reputation of the royal family. How could he tolerate someone from Gongshu's family being treated like this?

Originally, I promised Gongshu Tingyue to handle this matter secretly and not spread it to others, but I don't know what happened. In the blink of an eye, this matter seemed to have grown wings and turned into countless pieces, flying across almost half of the imperial city.

In this case, the matter could not be kept secret. At least Gongshu Tingyue and he had to separate. The next step was to punish Jiang Wenqing, but at this time Jiang Wenqing suffered a stroke and became paralyzed.

No matter what, despite their frequent quarrels in their relationship for so many years, Gongshu Tingyue still couldn't let go of him. However, Gongshu Yanyu had ordered her not to step out of the palace and not to have anything to do with Jiang Wenqing.

So she had no choice but to come to the Queen Mother for help again and again.

The Queen Mother obviously has no say in this matter. If she really feels sorry for Gongshu Tingyue, she can only try to persuade Gongshu Yanyu. As for whether he will change, it is unknown.

But for Gongshu Tingyue, what he wants most now is how to put the entire blame on Lin Mowan, and it would be best if Lin Mowan could take all the blame.

Faced with the Queen Mother's wavering words, Gongshu Tingyue cried even harder. She sobbed, "My Queen, I know that you and His Majesty are doing this for my own good, but the Jiang family has come to this point today, all thanks to that Lin Mowan. My Queen, you have to make the decision for me. She has caused me so much pain!"
