The female supporting character in the quick-wear drama is rebellious and loves to cause trouble for

When Brother Qiao saw him come back, he happily told him that Zhenniang was engaged and would get married in half a year. The man was a handsome and talented scholar, who was less than two years older than Zhenniang.

He was numbly pulled by Brother Qiao to greet the other party. Looking at the man who was taller, more handsome and much younger than himself, he lowered his head out of shame.

He doesn't even have a house, so he can only live with his mother in other people's homes. He still owes Brother Qiao decades of money. How can he compare with others?

Afterwards, he left the Qiao family with his mother on the pretext of going to study at the academy in the city. Although he had been communicating with Brother Qiao, because he was an outsider, the two of them never mentioned Zhen Niang in their correspondence to prevent her from being discovered by someone with ulterior motives and harming her again.

At this point, the prefect glanced at Lin Sheng, then sighed and said, "I'm going to die anyway, so I might as well tell you all these things at once, just to remind you."

Just when Lin Sheng was wondering what this had to do with him, he heard him continue:

"That year I went to Beijing to prepare for the exam, and suddenly I lost contact with Brother Qiao. I sent several letters but received no response. Finally, I learned from a familiar candidate in Dingchuan County that Brother Qiao had died of an acute illness..."

Of course he didn't believe that Brother Qiao, who had always been in good health and was less than 40 years old, would suddenly die, so he wanted to go back to investigate and also to support Zhenniang.

When his mother knew his thoughts, she almost knelt down in front of him and begged him to finish the exam before returning. Only then did he reluctantly suppress his thoughts and took part in the palace examination two months later before returning to Dingchuan County alone.

Unfortunately, it was too late by then. Not only had Brother Qiao been buried, but even most of his properties had been sold off.

He wanted to go to the Lin family to meet Zhenniang. He said all the nice things he could and gave her many gifts, but Mr. Lin did not agree. In the end, he had to return empty-handed.

He was unwilling to leave just like that, so while waiting for the results, he had been investigating the sudden death of Brother Qiao. Unexpectedly, his hard work paid off and he actually found some clues.

Lin Sheng was also stunned: "I interrogated that cousin's concubine before, and she said that my grandfather's death had nothing to do with her, and she didn't know how he died."

The prefect nodded and confirmed her statement: "What she said should be true, because this matter was done by Lin Juren in collusion with the then Dingchuan County Magistrate."

He paused again before adding, "That is my father-in-law who passed away young."

Lin Sheng was confused again. What the hell? Why don't I understand?

The man didn't know what he was thinking about, and he sneered, "Back then, Magistrate Liu's daughter had an affair with someone and got pregnant, and then she continued to look for someone to be her cuckold. And I, a 28-year-old unmarried poor girl, caught his eye!"

Of course, we won’t talk about how much of this was intentional on his part to draw the Liu family’s attention to him.

He sighed, and continued with an apologetic look:

"Originally I didn't want you to marry that playboy who has no blood relationship with me, but I heard people say that you were having a hard time after your mother passed away.

That concubine wanted to sell you to that filthy place, but I thought it would be safer to keep you under my nose than in another family! So I quickly went to the Lin family to make a bet, but who knew... "

Lin Sheng was really grateful to him for this. If she hadn't been engaged to the prefect's son and it hadn't been difficult to sell her, she would have had no idea where she was, although she didn't have a good life for a few days.

"and then?"

The man grinned again:

"Then I killed my father-in-law first, and gave the concubine's adulterer a sum of money to let the concubine kill Mr. Lin. Just as I was thinking,

My adulterous wife died in the bed of her adulterer, and when she was caught in the act, I realized that Brother Qiao’s death was not as simple as I thought. "

As he spoke, he propped himself up, lifted the quilt, and took out a small box from the secret compartment under the bed:

"This was given to me by your grandfather's uncle. He said that your grandfather accidentally found out about something and was afraid that he would be harmed, so he entrusted most of his wealth to his uncle and handed it to me.

It took me more than ten years to find out something. This matter is related to the concubine whose head you cut off..."

After listening to him, Lin Sheng felt his head buzzing and was speechless for a long time. What kind of bloody plot was this? "Um, you don't mind if I tell General Liang about this, right?"

The prefect shook his head and said, "Since I have told you everything, it is up to you to decide whether to tell it or not. I asked you to come here this time.

First, I want to tell you the causes and consequences of these things, so that you can be on guard. Second, I want to hand over all of Brother Qiao’s assets to you. Third…”

He hesitated for a moment before smiling:

"I was the one who gave you your name. When you were born, Brother Qiao was so happy that he wrote to tell me right away. He also denounced Mr. Lin's evil deeds in the letter. He actually thought that you were born in an unlucky time and was unwilling to give you a name.

I was so excited when I heard that. I flipped through the book all night and thought of this word. I remember that Zhenniang liked to play the zither very much. [Sheng] has the meaning of being smart and clever, and also has the beauty of moving sound. I never thought that Zhenniang would really use this word as your name. "

Lin Sheng was confused again: "I remember my mother didn't like playing the piano. She said she didn't like it since she was a child. It was my grandmother who forced her to learn it. After my grandmother passed away, she was upset whenever she saw the piano. She even wanted to smash it when she saw it in her dreams. If the piano wasn't my grandmother's favorite, she would have destroyed it long ago."

The smile on the man's face froze in an instant, and the lively and smiling little girl seemed to appear in front of him, lying in front of his window, repeatedly asking him what kind of girl he liked that day.

He was copying books at the time and had no time to pay attention to the little girl who came to make trouble. He had never seen many girls in his life, so how could he know what kind of girl he liked.

I remembered that Brother Qiao said his wife loved the piano very much and spent most of her time in the piano room every day.

He just said casually: I like women who play the piano.

It seemed that from that day on, Zhenniang would play the piano in the pavilion not far from his room every day, and she never got tired of it. Brother Qiao even complained to him privately, saying that the girl didn't even read her favorite script recently.

Alas~ Lin Sheng looked at the prefect in front of him who was crying silently, and he really didn’t know what to say. It seemed that these two people clearly had feelings for each other, so why couldn’t they be together?
