Chapter 691 Gain the Initiative

Long Tianyu showed a smile, thinking the little woman in his arms, who recomnded an acquaintance of her, indeed had no scruples when it ca to scheming.

Nevertheless, since she recomnded Shangguan Hui, Shangguan Hui was certainly a qualified candidate. Otherwise, Lin ngya would not let her shoulder such a heavy responsibility.

“What were you thinking about just now?” After finishing talking about their business, Long Tianyu held his wife in satisfaction and asked in a low voice.

Lin ngya seldom cried, but he couldn’t help worrying about her when seeing her cry.

“No... nothing. My father ntioned my mother’s death. It was not until now that I realized my mother’s death was not an accident,” Lin ngya said with an unnatural smile.

She had indeed lost her composure a mont ago.

But since she had figured out her real identity, the doubts in her heart had gone.

Lin ngya, who was trying to find an excuse with her head down, did not notice that when she ntioned that her mother’s death was not an accident, a trace of strong uneasiness flashed across Long Tianyu’s eyes.

Long Tianyu tightened his arms around Lin ngya and buried his face in her hair so that no one could see the expression on his face.

“My father is back, and you should be careful from now on, as he has learned you are going to marry soone else. Besides, I haven’t told him what has happened between us,” Lin ngya said in embarrassnt. After all, Long Tianyu had to bear much more criticism than she did over this matter.

Others must consider him, who relegated his legal wife and was going to marry soone else, as a total jerk.

Moreover, he did that at this critical mont when her brother was imprisoned and her father resigned, many people would think him heartless.

Not to ntion others, even her father would not let him off easily.

In fact, Lin ngya felt guilty about making Long Tianyu take the bla.

“It’s okay as long as you understand my thought,” Long Tianyu said.

A short while was enough for him to weigh his words and adjust his mood.

He never cared about other people’s thoughts. As long as she knew his feelings for her, it could be more reassuring to him than anything else.

Lin ngya felt delighted and nestled in Long Tianyu’s arms with peace of mind, thinking it was great to have him.

Her father’s return enabled the Lin Family to gain the initiative.

Early in the morning, her father sent soone to deliver a letter of divorce to the Shangguan Qing.

It was said that the Shangguan Family was furious.

However, the person sent by her father was a lieutenant, who had followed him over the years, as well as an official appointed by the imperial court. No matter how furious the Shangguan Family was, they dared not lay a finger on a military official with rits.

As such, although the Shangguan Family vented their anger on the lieutenant her father sent, they still had to accept Shangguan Qing’s being divorced so as to prevent her father from making the agreent between them public.

After all, as such a notable family, the Shangguan Family had to reach an agreent with Lin Muzhi to make him consent to marry their daughter, which was quite a burning sha to them.

They would rather accept the letter of divorce sent by the Lin Family. In this way, they could at least maintain their reputation.

After hearing the news, Lin ngya was amazed at her father’s wisdom.

She would never get tired of upsetting the Shangguan Family.

“Miss, here is a letter from a man nad Gou San.”

Hearing Baiji’s voice, Lin ngya, who was reading in the yard, imdiately raised her head, took the light yellow envelope from Baiji and opened it neatly.

After reading the letter carefully, she couldn’t help beaming with joy and said, “Prepare so generous gifts, and I’ll go to express my gratitude in person.”

Then she carefully put away the letter. She did not expect Gou San to be so efficient.

Just a few days after she delivered the ssage, he wrote her a letter saying that everything had been settled. Swift movent was the best tactic. Now she could get her brother out of the prison.

Although there had been a dispute between them last ti, Lin ngya had always been a person who clearly distinguished kindness from hatred.

Given his effort to clear her brother’s na, she should express her gratitude to him.

But now, it was really not easy for her to go out.

Both her father and Long Tianyu had repeatedly instructed her to stay at ho obediently and try to avoid going out.

But it would be insincere of her to send Qinghu to pay him a visit on her behalf.

Moreover, Lin ngya was curious about what Gou San had done so that he could reverse the situation in just a few days.

It was said that there were plenty of incredible people in the martial arts circle. Now she really wanted to make friends with Gou San.

After pondering for a while, Lin ngya thought that it was better to invite Gou An over sincerely than to go to the Ziwei Alley at the risk of exposing Gou An and his fellow apprentices’ stronghold.

She imdiately wrote a letter personally to make an appointnt to et Gou An three days later, and then asked Qinghu to find a way to send it to him.

At the thought that her brother’s problem might be solved, Lin ngya could not help feeling relieved.

As she finally had ti to unravel the complicated situation, she, who had been laden with anxiety in the past few days, gradually cald down.

It could be said that ever since she ca back from the Huguo Temple, she had been deeply troubled by what the Shangguan Family had done so that she could barely avert the crisis after the Shangguan Family made their move.

These days, she had been worn out with tackling various problems. If she couldn’t turn the situation around, she would eventually lose control of the situation.

Once soone found fault in her, she and the Lin Family and even Long Tianyu would be dood eternally.

Thus, in recent days, she could only conceal her unease and keep calm.

Now, all of this finally ca to an end.

Sighing softly, Lin ngya felt as if she were the Monkey King that had been rescued from beneath the Five-finger Mountain.

Everything was going on in a well-ordered way. Her father, who ca back from an old acquaintance of him, brought more accurate information.

The Shangguan Family intended to make unfounded countercharges because of the letter of divorce.

According to the news Lin Muzhi got, the Shangguan Family probably had projected their daughter Shangguan Qing as a loyal and patriotic citizen, and they claid that the reason why Lin Nansheng attempted to kill her and Lin Muzhi tried to divorce her was that she had discovered the secret of the Lin Family’s collusion with the enemy and committing treason.

After hearing the news, Lin ngya was stunned for a few seconds, and then involuntarily admired the shalessness of the Shangguan Family from the bottom of her heart.

Compared with their ability to turn right into wrong, her brother was too upright.

Now that the two families had fallen out with each other, the Shangguan Family naturally had no more scruples.

They would like to see all mbers of the Lin Family executed, otherwise, they would not have put on such a farce.

But in this case, the Emperor’s attitude beca very important.

Fortunately, she and Long Tianyu didn’t disobey the Emperor’s order before, otherwise, they would be in a difficult situation now if they pissed off the Emperor.

After thinking it over, Lin ngya thought that the Emperor was waiting for their Lin Family to clarify their position. If they made good use of this opportunity, maybe they could turn around Lin Nansheng’s situation.

In the study, Lin Muzhi and Lin ngya, each with a heavy heart, raised their heads after a long while.

However, they were surprised to find that they did the sa thing.

Lin ngya couldn’t help smiling, thinking there seed to be connections between her and her father.

“Father, I guess we are thinking the sa, right?” She asked with a playful smile as if this life-and-death struggle were nothing but a common ga between them.

“Alas, as an official, I shouldn’t do that. But our Lin Family is really wronged,” Lin Muzhi said with a sigh.

Anyway, he had been loyal and patriotic, but now he had no other choice.

If his son had really committed treason, he would definitely place righteousness above family loyalty.

But now, he really didn’t want to get involved in the internal strife and just wanted to protect his children in the turbulent situation.

“Father, you don’t have to bla yourself. I think His Majesty has been waiting for you for a long ti. Be careful. I’ll keep an eye on the Shangguan Family,” Lin ngya said, got up, and made a bow leisurely.

The Shangguan Family had made this matter public, but the Emperor still took no action. In this case, his intention was very obvious.

At present, the Lin Family was still a sharp sword in the Emperor’s hands. If the Emperor really decided to give up on them, he could just let things drift.

However, Lin Nansheng was still detained in the prison of the governnt office, and the Ministry of War had not taken any action against the Lin Family yet.

This ant that the Emperor was waiting for the Lin Family to make the request and rember the convenience the Emperor’s favor had brought to them.

Only in this way could he use the carrot-and-stick approach to take full control of this sharp sword.

If the Emperor played such a trick on others, they would definitely be grateful to him and claim tearfully that they would never disobey him again.

Unfortunately, he did this to the Lin Family.

Lin ngya shook her head and watched her father leave.

The Emperor didn’t see through the pride deeply rooted in the hearts of the mbers of the Lin Family.

It was impossible to ta a proud wolf in a way of training a dog. One day, the Emperor would realize that he was far from mastering the tactics of manipulating power.

“Howl—”

In the courtyard, the white wolf, which had grown up into a fierce beast, suddenly let out a trembling howl.

Lin ngya moved to the courtyard and stood at the door.

Now that the cubs were about to beco the king of the forest, was what they had painstakingly cultivated also going to grow wildly into ripe?

She looked forward to the day when the seeds she sowed grew into a towering tree.

“Prepare a sedan. I’m going to the Shangguan Family in person,” Lin ngya said with sparkling eyes.

No one could tell what she was up to.

However, those, who were familiar with her, knew that every ti she showed such a serious expression, it ant that so people were going to get into big trouble.
