Professional Ethics of a Concubine

Ever since Ye Qingzhi learned about Lin Qingwan's tragic past, knowing that she was poisoned to death and that she had raised a child for her enemy for several years, she has been particularly upset.

Initially, she planned to lie down and be carried away, but she found that she had underestimated the impact this would have on herself.

She was really heartbroken and miserable.

If she really lay down and did nothing, she would probably get blocked and get breast cancer or something.

However, if she wanted to do something tricky, she couldn't hide it from Xie Jin.

It can't be hidden!

For the sake of her own breast health, Ye Qingzhi thought about it and decided to talk to Xie Jin first and ask him if he knew Xie Xiuhan's true identity.

She doubted he knew.

As for how she knew?

Haha, the end of all science is theology.

What's more, this happened in ancient times, when people believed in gods and ghosts even more.

She said that it was Mrs. Lin who told her in her dream!

After all, Mrs. Lin’s anniversary is coming soon. It’s normal for Mrs. Lin to be active by appearing in people’s dreams or even scaring people.

If Master Yin is dragged out to take the blame, that will be enough.

After Ye Qingzhi made up her mind, she asked the secret guard Liuyi to deliver a letter to Xie Jin, asking him to come to the manor when he was free, saying that she had something important to ask him.

It was not until the evening that Xie Jin came over.

Xie Jin was also busy today. He captured a few spies from the Chu State and interrogated them for a whole day, but did not obtain any useful information.

Let me interject here that what Prince Su said before, that the State of Chu was eyeing the south covetously and wanted to send troops to garrison the south, was not groundless, nor was it entirely out of selfish desire to take Mu Nianqiu away to have some peace and quiet.

According to news from the south, the State of Chu was indeed making this move.

Xie Jin's recent work focus has been on capturing and interrogating these Chu spies.

Before coming to Zhuangzi, he specially went back to the Marquis' Mansion, changed out of the bloody Jinyiwei commander's uniform, washed off the blood on his body, and then came to find Ye Qingzhi.

"Sir, have you had dinner?" Ye Qingzhi greeted Xie Jin enthusiastically when she saw him.

"I have used it." Xie Jin held her in his arms and kissed her, then let her go and asked, "What do you want my advice on?"

"Then I'll just say it directly. Don't get scared later."

Ye Qingzhi deliberately sighed softly to build up the emotions first. She was top-notch when it came to manipulating people.

Xie Jin's curiosity was piqued, and he slapped her forehead unhappily, telling her to speak quickly and stop keeping her in suspense.

"Master, Madam Lin appeared in my dream last night." Ye Qingzhi said.

"She said she was badly deceived. Xie Xiuhan is actually the biological child of Zhao Xinlan and Xie Mingli. Xie Mingli, I'll just call him Marquis of Pingnan.

Marquis Pingnan lied to Madam Lin that Xie Xiuhan was a child chosen from the clan, and asked Madam Lin to register him as her legitimate son and raise him.

What’s even more outrageous is that everyone said that Mrs. Lin died of illness because she didn’t take good care of her body after giving birth, but in fact, she was poisoned to death by Zhao Xinlan.

Master, do you know about this? After hearing this, I was so angry that I almost died!

This Pingnan Hou and Zhao Xinlan are too much, Madam Lin is too pitiful, she actually raised a child for her enemy!"

"How do you know all this? Was it really Mrs. Lin who appeared in your dream?!" Xie Jin's eyes deepened slightly, he did not believe in such ghost stories.

He knew that Xie Xiuhan was the son of Zhao Xinlan and Xie Mingli only after Lin Qingwan's death.

Xie Mingli concealed this matter very carefully. After all, once it was exposed, Xie Mingli's reputation would be completely ruined.

The Anle Marquis' Mansion will be the first one that will not let Xie Mingli off, and Zhao Xinlan's ex-husband's family will not let this matter go either.

Because Xie Xiuhan is the child born from the adultery between Zhao Xinlan and Xie Mingli.

For the sake of Xie family's reputation, he kept the matter secret and pretended to be ignorant.

But he didn't know that there was another hidden story behind Lin Qingwan's death, and Xie Mingli probably didn't know it either.

"Whether you believe it or not, this is the dream that Madam Lin gave me."

Ye Qingzhi let him look into her clear and open eyes.

She wasn't lying.

Xie Jin did not dwell on this question any more, but asked a more crucial question:

"what do you want to do?"

"I know that I can't hide anything from you, so I'll ask you directly:

What price would it cost to make the truth public, let Zhao Xinlan die, and make Pingnan Hou receive the punishment he deserves?

This will calm Madam Lin's hatred and let her rest in peace. Stop her from coming to me in my dreams and causing me nightmares."

She is not Lin Qingwan. If she can defeat the enemy in one fell swoop, she will not do that.

Her style is to be simple and rough, and to rely on the leadership to work.
