Chapter 46 Lin Qingqian Strikes Back

Lin Langtian frowned, thinking about Concubine Shu's words.

Concubine Shu's fierce eyes flashed, and she said sinisterly: "Gu Changgeng must find an opportunity to get rid of it. Cutting the weeds and eradicating the roots is a wise saying that never changes from ancient times."

Lin Langtian closed his eyes and said, "I have my own measure, so you don't need to worry."

"Yes, the slave family believes in Xiangye."

After staying tenderly for a while, Concubine Shu suddenly said: "Today, the Highness saw the third young lady of the prime minister's mansion, so it can be seen that she is not an ordinary woman. You should cultivate more when you return to the mansion, and it will be useful to us in the future."

Lin Langtian didn't answer, but his thoughts were the same as Concubine Shu's.

Since ancient times, heroes have been saddened by beauty, and beauty is the same sharp weapon.

……

Prime Minister's House.

A group of people got off the carriage, before Mrs. Xu could speak, the old lady said in a deep voice, "Come to my courtyard for a visit."

Although Lin Qingrou had doubts in her heart, she still obediently replied "Yes."

Lin Qingqian followed the old lady to Jinglanyuan, her thoughts were wandering, and she was not sure what the old lady was thinking at the moment.

Lin Qingwu wanted to follow, but was stopped by Mrs. Xu, and said: "Your grandmother will take care of things on her own. You have been tired in the palace for a day today, so go back to your courtyard to rest."

Lin Qingwu glanced at the figure of the old lady walking away, and could only nod, "Yes, Qingwu listens to mother, I'll go back to the south courtyard first."

After Lin Qingwu left, Baihe helped Mrs. Xu back to Youlan Garden. Seeing her preoccupied look, she asked, "Madam, are you thinking about today's affairs in the palace?"

"good."

"Is it about Miss San?"

"Well, from what I've seen today, what Qing Wu said a while ago is not unreasonable. Lin Qingqian is indeed not simple. She was calm and scheming in the palace at a young age."

Bai He thought for a while, and said: "Madam, why worry, no matter what Lin Qingqian is, after all, she is only a concubine, and she can't compare with the young lady at all."

Mrs. Xu rubbed her forehead wearily, stopped talking, waved her hand, and said, "I'm tired today too, please step back, I'll take a good rest."

"Yes, the slaves retire."

When the door was closed, Xu's eyes were cold, no matter who dared to block her children's future, she would not let it go!
……

Jinglan Court.

The old lady waved her hand to make all the servants retreat, with a stern expression, sitting upright, feeling like the rain was about to come.

Lin Qingqian's heart moved, and before the old lady could speak, she suddenly threw herself into her arms, her shoulders trembled, and she suppressed a soft sob.

This made the old lady and Lin Qingrou startled.

As the saying goes, a crying child gets candy, and that's absolutely true.

The old lady's cold and stern face gradually softened, and she patted Lin Qingqian on the back, "Don't cry, tell grandma if you have something to say, what's wrong?"

"I, woo woo...Qingqian is scared, Qingqian almost won't be able to stay with grandma anymore..."

The old lady's heart was softened by Lin Qingqian's crying, and it took her a while to comfort the crying Lin Qingqian. Seeing the little girl's crying eyes and nose were red, her heart ached.

Lin Qingrou on the side gritted her teeth, furious.

Would Lin Qingqian really pretend to be in front of her grandmother, and even threaten others in the palace, as if she would be afraid?

Wiping away the tears on Lin Qingqian's face with a handkerchief, the old lady asked: "Qingqian, why did you say that to the emperor in the palace today?"

Lin Qingqian's eyes were still full of tears, she rubbed her fingers, and whispered, "Although grandma will punish Gu Changgeng, it is because he made a mistake and deserves to be punished. People in the Prime Minister's Mansion naturally understand, but when outsiders hear it, Thinking that Gu Changgeng is an orphan, he will inevitably feel sympathy for him, mistakenly thinking that we are bullying him, I don't want our prime minister's residence to be misunderstood."

After finishing speaking, Lin Qingqian asked again timidly, "Grandmother, did Qingqian do something wrong? If Qingqian is wrong, please punish her."

"No, you did nothing wrong, you did a good job!" The old lady caressed Lin Qingqian's black hair in satisfaction.

In the critical situation at that time, even thinking of protecting the face of the prime minister's mansion immediately, it is not in vain that she loves Lin Qingqian so much these days.

The old lady asked again: "In the palace, you poured fruit wine on the Empress Dowager's birthday gift, what's the matter?"

Although he was asking Lin Qingqian, his eyes were fixed on Lin Qingrou.

Lin Qingrou's heart tightened suddenly, and she spoke first, "Grandmother, it was Third Sister who accidentally poured fruit wine on the painting, and it has nothing to do with me."

The old lady's tone became cold, "Is that really the case?"

Lin Qingqian bit her lip, looked at Lin Qingrou aggrieved and sadly, then met the old lady's gaze hesitantly, and said in a low voice, "It was Qingqian who was careless, please punish her grandma."

Even so, her expression clearly said that it was Lin Qingrou who harmed her.

"Third Sister, you accidentally spilled fruit wine on the painting yourself, why are you slandering me!"

"I..." Lin Qingrou grabbed the old lady's sleeves tightly, tears welled up in her aggrieved eyes, "Fourth sister, when did I slander you? You saw it with your own eyes, and I told grandma that I was not careful. "

"But you know..."

The old lady scolded in a cold voice: "That's enough, it's a good job to be a thief with a guilty conscience and rely on others!"

"Grandma, I didn't..."

The old lady did not listen to Lin Qingrou's defense, but softened her voice and said: "Qingqian was frightened today, go back and have a good rest first, grandma won't let you suffer in vain."

Lin Qingqian nodded, "Yes, grandma, I'll go back first."

When Lin Qingqian passed by Lin Qingrou's side, a sneer curled up at the corner of her mouth, and she said with her mouth: I told you, I'm not easy to mess with.

Lin Qingrou was so angry that she said to the old lady angrily: "Grandmother, please believe me, Lin Qingqian deliberately slandered me, just now she rushed at me..."

"Pa" sounded a clear and crisp applause, Lin Qingrou was beaten so that her face was tilted to one side, and she was dumbfounded.

Grandmother beat her with her own hands!

The old lady had a gloomy face, and said coldly: "Usually you are careful in the mansion, I turn a blind eye and close my eyes, I don't care about you, I never thought that you would be so ignorant that you would dare to mess around in the palace!"

Lin Qingrou covered her burning cheeks, her eyes filled with tears, she looked at the old lady in disbelief.

"Grandma, I..."

"Do you really think I don't know your little thoughts? You are only a little girl, why are you not half as sensible as her? You caused her to almost commit a serious crime of disrespect before the imperial court. The empress dowager and the emperor wanted to punish her. She never I didn't mention you half a sentence, because I don't want the ugliness of the prime minister's family to be known by outsiders and made fun of in front of the court officials."

The old lady was full of anger, "But you are good, don't think of her kindness, and the villain will sue first, and beat you up, saying that she slandered you!"

Lin Qingrou's tears fell one by one, sobbing: "No...Grandma, I don't have one, she really slandered me."

The old lady snorted coldly, feeling extremely disappointed in Lin Qingrou.

"Have you ever thought that it was in the palace, and if you were a little careless, not only one or two people would be harmed, but the prime minister's family would be affected by hundreds of people?"
