Lin Qingran saw the jade pendant in the maid's hand, and was immediately stunned, this jade pendant, she disliked the style and was not good-looking, so she hid it in the box, she hadn't worn it for a long time, how could it suddenly appear in the maid's hand?

Before she could react, Aunt Luo had already rushed forward, wanting to snatch the jade pendant from the maid's hand, and said with a blaming voice: "The second lady's jade pendant has been lost for a long time, who should I have taken it?" It turned out to be in the hands of you cheap girl, it is really day and night, and it is difficult to prevent thieves, how can the Lin family spend money to raise you such a thing inside and out! ”

Aunt Luo snatched the Minyu pendant from the maid's hand, and was about to slap the maid in the face, but Lin Zhongsheng caught her wrist.

"Stop."

"Master, don't stop me, there is such a scourge in the family, you have to teach a good lesson! first tried to give false testimony to provoke the relationship between their sisters, and now they took out this stolen thing, saying that they would buy her clearly, and if such a wicked slave stays for one more day, it will not benefit the Lin family at all! Aunt Luo looked at the cowering maid resentfully, and her mouth was full of words.

"Shut up! There are women like this, what kind of face do you have as a mother to reprimand your subordinates here, it's better to reflect on it! ”

Lin Zhongsheng had already seen through it, and what she said was nothing more than a defense of Lin Qingran's crime, but she didn't stop her from going on, but she was depressed and unhappy in her heart.

For Lin Qingran, the second daughter, he has always loved and cherished it very much, especially after the disappointment brought by Lin Zhiruo's ugly appearance of the first daughter, getting a naturally beautiful daughter has liberated and sublimated his mind, and his official career seems to have a little more light.

When Lin Qingran was full moon, the jade unicorn jade pendant he gave her was of great significance to Lin Zhongsheng himself. The material used in this jade pendant is a bamboo fan pendant carved from a piece of ice seed water jade precious seed material given to him by the emperor on his thirtieth birthday, which is a treasure that he has always cherished.

When he was happy with Lin Qingran, the second daughter of Yuxue, he was ecstatic, and after a few strange dreams, he reluctantly changed his baby jade pendant into a unicorn pendant and gave it to his daughter, as a commemoration of her birthday and personal talisman. It can be seen that Lin Zhongsheng has extraordinary expectations and treasures for Lin Qingran, and even Emperor Min Wen's imperial gifts were taken out and changed into her birthday gifts - it's a pity that what happened today made him regret doing it in the first place!

He was so full of expectations and love that he gave up his beloved thing and turned it into a gift for Lin Qingran, seeing his lovely daughter wearing his beloved jade pendant, he would always feel that his life was almost complete.

But today, Lin Jingran first made an honest self-confession of the crime, and then an humble self-defense, as soon as Lin Zhiruo's human evidence came out, she looked dismal, and as soon as the physical evidence of the human evidence came out, her reaction was even more indescribable!

Lin Zhongsheng could clearly see that Lin Qingran's eyes were dull and confused for a moment when she saw the maid take out the unicorn pendant, but her eyes quickly caught a glimpse of Aunt Luo, and then she suddenly recognized this unicorn pendant.

If she hadn't seen Aunt Luo's solemnity, she wouldn't have remembered that this unicorn pendant was her own, and she wouldn't have remembered how much love and expectations her father had given her.

But now, Lin Zhongsheng witnessed the maid's accusation against his most cherished daughter, and he couldn't believe that his daughter could bear to bribe a maid with the birthday gift he gave her, and the purpose was still so sinister!

Lin Zhongsheng has been an official for more than ten years, although he is not the kind of person who will show off his power at will by virtue of his high official position, but he always upholds the majesty and dignity of a prime minister in front of anyone except the royal family, even in his own mansion, facing his wife and children, the authority of the head of the family cannot be offended!

Lin Qingran's move not only challenged his authority as the head of the family, but also broke his heart as a man and a father, and her foolish behavior shattered his illusion of marrying the royal family, making him feel that his position was in jeopardy!

At this time, countless worries, anger, and sadness all came to his heart, and Lin Zhongsheng didn't want to investigate in detail, on the day of Lin Zhiruo's wedding with Duanwang a few months ago, whether Lin Qingran and the others had done these things-but at this time, the unicorn pendant was taken out of the hands of a dressing maid, and he didn't care how the jade pendant was obtained by the maid, in short, his heart was to let Lin Qingran lose.

Lin Zhongsheng stared at Lin Qingran, his eyes were burning but there was a chill! The chill poured out from the bottom of his heart, and it flowed silently through the air into Lin Qingran's eyes and into her heart, Lin Qingran knew that she would never get such pure and flawless fatherly love from her father from now on.

"Doing such an evil thing, not only do you not repent, but you are still so stubborn in the face of human and material evidence, as the daughter of the Prime Minister's house, you have forgotten all the teachings you have received outside the clouds, are your wings stiff Even I, the father who gave birth to you and raised you, now you don't care about it?"

"No, no, no......" Lin Qingran shook his head vigorously, feeling very aggrieved, but he couldn't think of any reason to defend himself, because he had never seen his father's angry appearance since he was a child, and he was so frightened that he lost his composure.

Out of the gentleness of nature, Lin Zhongsheng, as a civil servant, has always served the king with reason and wisdom above the court, but there is no lack of his unique edge, he is not very good at intrigue and playing with power, but he is not clear, even he himself is difficult to define, whether it is good or evil.

But in front of his daughters, especially in front of his beloved flesh and blood relatives, he always showed the kindness, wisdom and dignified majesty that an elder should have.

Compared with today's anger in front of his daughter, he is more strict and harsh with his sons, but despite this, the effect on Lin Qingran is great.

Lin Qingran couldn't think of a better reaction except for shaking her head with tears, she didn't expect that the cowardly Lin Zhiruo in the past would become so cunning, she didn't expect that she had to tell her past crimes under her coercion, and she didn't expect that all this was actually listened to by her father - this iron-clad fact, how could she argue, she couldn't compete with Lin Zhiruo!

Looking at his daughter whose eyes were red from crying, Lin Zhongsheng never stretched out his generous palm this time like before, hugged her with a smile, and just said coldly, "You are too disappointing to your father!" ”

"Master, Qingran grew up with you, she has always been gentle and kind, and she has never killed a single mosquito, how could she do such a thing as murdering your eldest sister, how can you be so convinced that it is the truth because of their words?"
