Chapter 578: Well Prepared
What Li Qingyi wanted to know most was what happened between the old lady and the former princess.
The old lady hated Xiao Lanhe at first, because the eldest son disobeyed her for her.
But would the old lady really hate her eldest grandson and even disregard his life because she didn't like her daughter-in-law? After all, that is also her own grandson, the blood of the eldest son.
Could there be some misunderstanding in it, or has it been calculated by someone?
In other words, if the old lady does not dislike Qin Zeng and can protect his life, Qin Zeng will not be left behind, and she will not have to bother to find a woman to keep her son behind, and Lin Jianyue will not have the opportunity to pass on the lineage to Gongsun Jingzhi, so as to stay in the Zhenbei Mansion as the princess of Zhenbei.
Therefore, Lin Jianyue's hand has long been stretched into the Zhenbei Palace?
The most important thing is that Lin Jianyue must have known about the catastrophe of the Gongsun clan in advance, so how did she know about it? Did you know it from the Mu family's Mu Guifei, or did you know it from the reborn female national teacher?
As long as this point is confirmed, you can know whether the person who is hiding very deep behind is a Chongnan person or a Dajing person.
And all this needs to be investigated by Li Qingyi.
Mother Tong is a good lead, at least let her know what happened between the old lady and the former princess, and what can be done.
In the room, Li Qingyi and Qin Zeng sat opposite each other, and there were several delicious dishes on the table, half of which were Li Qingyi's favorite food, and half were Qin Zeng's taste.
Li Qingyi knew that Qin Zeng didn't like to be around the girl and the mother-in-law all the time, so he asked the two of them to go down to eat too, leaving only the two of them in the house.
As long as the husband and wife are there, they don't pay attention to food, sleep or sleep.
Li Qingyi asked, "If Lin Jianyue is really as we guessed, everything she does with her is to echo the old lady's mind and the candidate for her son's inheritance."
First, he was lost since he was a child, and he lived in a nunnery, and he had no feelings for his family, so he didn't have to be dragged down by his mother's family.
Second, being able to quickly handle the housework after her father died of illness and left the Lin family with her own property neatly shows that she has the means to govern the family.
Third, after leaving the Lin family, she went directly to the nunnery to retreat and slowly find her own way out, which shows that she is proper and measured, intelligent and steady.
Such a woman, a proper housewife, if she is from a good background, Zhenbei Wangfu may not be able to marry such a good daughter-in-law.
If Mrs. Gongsun wants to find someone to keep for her son, she may not be looking for a hostess who can serve as the hostess of the Zhenbei Palace. After all, the day she passed away sooner or later.
Qin Zeng said: "Lin Jianyue's situation at that time, family affairs must be difficult, but there may not be no way out, no matter how she chooses, she will not want to be widowed if she wants to enter the door, so the old lady put forward very generous conditions."
"What conditions?"
"Regardless of whether she gives birth to a boy or a girl, she is the princess of Zhenbei, if she has no heirs and is unwilling to be widowed, when she is twenty-five years old, she can leave the Zhenbei palace with a letter of release of wife."
Li Qingyi was a little surprised, "Twenty-five years old, Lin Jianyue can remarry someone else as a stepfamily, and it is also a suitable age for pregnancy, the old lady really thinks about everything for her."
Qin Zeng said coldly, "Lin Jianyue can only cover up her motives for wanting to enter the palace by forcing the old lady to offer such generous conditions."
Li Qingyi nodded: "Actually, the old lady also hides her selfishness, if Lin Jianyue really doesn't conceive an heir, staying in the palace is equivalent to a housekeeper, and after a few years of the limelight of the rebellion case has passed, the mansion will stabilize again, and Lin Jianyue will leave."
Qin Zeng was stunned for a moment, he really hadn't thought about such a detail.
After a moment of contemplation, he expressed the doubts in his mind.
"Actually, I couldn't figure it out, my father...... He has a deep affection for my mother, and after my mother died, my father didn't even have a girl by his side, so how could he suddenly accept a strange woman? Even if he learned that my whereabouts were unknown at that time, and it was likely that I had died, but the second and third uncles all had sons, and they would not let the Gongsun family cut off the incense
What is left after giving birth to a woman."...
Li Qingyi speculated, "Maybe when people are about to die, they think differently? Moreover, the old lady is his mother after all, and he is going to die, and he wants to leave a memory for his mother."
Qin Zeng shook his head, "My father told me a long time ago that he would never touch a second woman again in this life, his child can only be born by my mother, and in the future, it will be underground, and it will also be our family of three, and outsiders will not be allowed to interfere. He also said that the sons of the second uncle and the third uncle are also the children of the Gongsun family, and they can always continue the incense, and in the future, the farmers and industrialists will also have their own paths, so there is no need to force them."
Li Qingyi couldn't help but be silent when he heard this, he didn't expect King Zhenbei to be such a persistent and stubborn person, no wonder he would rather be a monk than agree to give up Qin Zeng's mother.
"Perhaps, it wasn't your father's willingness, but Lin Jianyue thought of other means?"
Qin Zeng groaned and said, "I once asked the emperor, and the emperor said that when the incident happened suddenly, he asked people to investigate the truth of this matter, and on the other hand, he sent someone to protect my father, and ordered that no one should be allowed to visit me in prison, for fear that someone would secretly poison my father, and the guards were all the emperor's henchmen, and no outsider could contact my father. But then the charge of rebellion could not be cleared, and the emperor knew that my father's life could not be saved, so he asked the old lady to see the eldest son for the last time, and the old lady took the opportunity to ask to stay for my father, and the emperor agreed."
"In other words, no one can do anything until Lin Jianyue enters the cell."
Qin Zeng nodded, "My father is strong in martial arts, and a weak woman in Lin Jianyue wants to drug my father on the spot, it is unlikely, besides, although the cell is covered by curtains, there are people guarding it not far outside, if there is too much movement, it will definitely be known."
"So, Lin Jianyue stabilized my father."
Qin Zeng's eyes narrowed, and he was suddenly nodded by Li Qingyi's words.
Steady.
Li Qingyi continued: "If I am Lin Jianyue and it is imperative to enter the Zhenbei Wangfu, then I will satisfy the old lady, but the Zhenbei King refuses to accept other women, what should I do?"
"I must first stabilize my father, or at least make the old lady feel that they have succeeded. She will tell her father that the old lady has a heart for her son, it is better to follow her wishes on the surface, even if it is the last filial piety of the prince to the old lady, when she is not pregnant, she has to blame God for not being beautiful. The old lady sent the white-haired man to the black-haired man. My father must have felt guilty in his heart, and when he heard her say this, he would definitely cooperate."
"That's right, I've thought about it before. Since Lin Jianyue was able to calculate the time when Gongsun Jingzhi was deeply involved in the rebellion case so accurately and responded accordingly, is it possible that Lin Jianyue made many other preparations before everything happened? Include...... Pregnant?"
