Chapter 129 Dali Temple! Trial!

Hearing this, Lin Zhiqing's face changed and he had no time to care about anything else.

Lu Nanyue also realized the seriousness of the matter. She stuffed the jade bottle back into Lin Zhiqing's hand and said, "Go back quickly and take a look. I'll tell Xiao Huai to look for you."

Lin Zhiqing held the jade bottle tightly, nodded, and turned away without further delay.

At the same time, the Lin family was in chaos.

Inside the main hall.

"Shi'an, have you been convicted? Are you sure you heard it right?" Fourth Aunt grabbed Lin Shi'an's sleeve, her face showing shock and fear.

Lin Congli was still unaware of what happened last night and was also looking at Lin Shian.

Lin Shian pursed his lips tightly, feeling like he couldn't open his mouth at all.

But judging from his reaction, Fourth Aunt already understood.

Her hand loosened and she almost lost her balance.

Lin Yangyang helped Fourth Aunt.

"The matter has not been concluded yet. Why are you panicking? Can you act like an elder?" Lin Congli put his hands behind his back. Although his face looked unhappy, his back was very straight.

Seeing Fourth Auntie turn her face away, Lin Yangyang stepped forward to smooth things over: "Dad, Fourth Auntie is also worried about Fourth Uncle."

After hearing this, Fourth Aunt lowered her head with a guilty expression on her face. She opened her mouth and was about to speak when she heard Lin Shian speak.

"Aunt Si, please go back to your room first." There was some warning in his eyes.

Fourth Aunt rarely saw Lin Shian with such an expression, so she didn't dare to speak again.

Lin Yangyang couldn't see anything unusual between the two. She patted Fourth Aunt on the back and said, "Fourth Aunt, don't worry. Let's go back to the yard first."

Watching the two figures getting farther and farther away, Lin Congli frowned tightly: "Where is Zhiqing?"

"I went out early in the morning." Lin Shian replied.

Lin Congli sighed deeply: "Now is a critical period, where did she run off to?"

Lin Shian glanced at his uncle and was slightly surprised.

He could hear that there was no blame in Lin Congli's tone, but rather a sense of confusion.

He seemed to have lost his backbone now.

"I believe Zhiqing will hear the news soon. Uncle, let's wait a little longer." Lin Shian has learned a lot these days. He knows that it is useless to be anxious.

Lin Congli shook his head: "How can I not be anxious? The Lin family's foundation built over so many years is about to be destroyed in my hands!"

Lin Shian was silent and did not respond.

Lin Congli didn't expect him to say anything, so he paced back and forth in the hall.

After a while, he stroked his beard, as if he had made up his mind: "If it doesn't work, we will make Jiusi's deeds public, and the Ministry of Justice..."

"Uncle, be careful with your words!" Lin Shi'an looked at Lin Congli in disbelief.

Lin Congli's method was obviously to push Lin Jiusi out to take the blame.

Lin Shian was not speaking up for Lin Jiusi. He was surprised that his uncle still hadn't seen the situation clearly.

To be honest, the current situation is somewhat similar to that of a few years ago.

It was the same devastating disaster, and the Lin family was also accused of the crime.

The eldest uncle had already pushed the third uncle out before, what was the result?

The Lin family is still a thorn in the eyes of many people.

Now he still wants to push Lin Jiusi out. Will the result be different?

Lin Shian was a little excited: "No matter who is accused of this crime, as long as someone from the Lin family is involved, our Lin family cannot escape responsibility!" "They can't wait to see us kill each other. If we throw Lin Jiusi out, the Lin family will only become a laughing stock in the capital!"

When Lin Congli heard this, his cheeks turned slightly red. This was the first time he was refuted by Lin Shian, and he couldn't help but feel angry.

Just as he was about to speak, a soft female voice came over.

"My cousin is right, uncle, you are desperate and trying all kinds of treatments." Lin Zhiqing walked slowly into the main hall.

Seeing her come back, Lin Shian calmed down. Lin Congli didn't say anything more and sat back in his chair.

"Zhiqing, have you heard the news?" Lin Shian couldn't help but feel anxious.

Lin Zhiqing nodded: "They really want to cut the Gordian knot. I just met with my fourth uncle and heard the news right after."

"What? Have you met Congyan? You didn't hear anything at all?" Lin Congli stood up suddenly.

"What rumors? Do they have to tell Fourth Uncle even if they are convicted?" Lin Zhiqing's voice was slightly cold.

Lin Congli's lips trembled, and he turned his back and stopped talking.

"The Ministry of Justice will take Fourth Uncle to the Dali Temple. We still have three days from now." Lin Zhiqing had already figured out the time along the way:

"If we still can't find the truth within these three days, then we'll just have to wait and collect Fourth Uncle's body!"

"Of course, once Fourth Uncle dies, the rest of the Lin family won't be able to escape."

She pinched the small jade bottle in her sleeve, thinking back to what her fourth uncle had said to her, and felt a severe headache.

When Lin Shian saw her frown, he knew that this matter was really not simple.

He calmed himself down and looked at Lin Congli: "Uncle, why don't you go and get some information first? After all, we are young and have limited means."

Lin Congli looked at him with a complicated expression, said nothing, and strode out.

Seeing this, Lin Zhiqing knew that Lin Shian had something to say: "Cousin, what do you want to say?"

Lin Shian hesitated a little: "Zhiqing, if Fourth Aunt can testify, can we prove that Aunt Chun is just the thief crying thief?"

Lin Zhiqing had thought about this possibility.

But the bad thing about this matter is that Aunt Chun is already dead.

There is no evidence against a dead person. Even if they talk big, they cannot defeat a dead person without evidence.

What's more, the people above want the Lin family dead, so they won't allow them to accuse a dead person.

Is this not possible? Lin Shian felt powerless.

"Although Concubine Chun is a serious problem, she is not the real culprit behind the scenes." Lin Zhiqing said, "We still have three days. Three days is enough time to do a lot."

Lin Zhiqing has a far-sighted vision.

Today she asked her fourth uncle in detail about the process of meeting with Tongyi Liu Mang half a year ago.

According to my fourth uncle, my second grandfather encountered bandits while he was out doing business, and all the goods and money were robbed by the bandits.

Seeing that the Lin family was about to collapse, he had no choice but to find the good-hearted Shang Feng Liu Mang and ask him to borrow some money, so he invited him to Qianjin Pavilion.

When Lin Zhiqing asked about the reason for going to Qianjin Pavilion, Fourth Uncle looked a little confused and only said, "Maybe there is no money," and he used an uncertain tone when answering.

This is a big doubt.

Let’s put that aside for now. Back then, in Qianjin Pavilion, Lin Congyan fell in love with Concubine Chun, who looked very similar to his ideal woman, at first sight. His thoughts were seen through by Liu Mang.

Liu Mang decided to redeem Concubine Chun and gave her to him. Lin Congyan originally wanted to borrow money, but since he had owed Liu Mang a big favor for nothing, he didn't dare to ask for more.

That was all that happened that day.

Lin Zhiqing thought about it carefully. On the surface, there was indeed nothing wrong with it, but if he thought about it carefully, he could find some doubts.

The most suspicious thing is that Fourth Uncle himself is not quite sure why he wants to go to Qianjin Pavilion.
