The war god prince climbs the wall every night, and the princess is angry
Chapter 55 Madness
"Mammy, has a vixen appeared around the Marquis recently?"
Lin's eyes were fierce, and her slender white hands were tearing the handkerchief tightly.
Nanny Kong was shocked to see Lin's condition. Over the years, what the lady could not tolerate most was that the Marquis had other women.
On their wedding night, the Marquis got drunk and thought he had married his beloved woman. He was so happy that he promised never to take a concubine again.
But the next day he found out that he had married the wrong person, so he turned around and wanted to take Lin Wanru as his concubine.
The lady was afraid that Lin Wanru would replace her position after she got married, so she sent a pigeon to Lin's father, asking him to marry Lin Wanru off quickly.
The Marquis failed to get what he wanted and was very depressed for a while. He was also extremely cold towards his wife. It was not until his wife gave birth to the prince that he felt better.
But not long after, the Marquis brought back a girl from a brothel. The girl was charming and delicate, and her face was 50% similar to Lin Wanru. The Marquis took her as a concubine.
Nanny Kong still remembered that she was guarding outside the door while the lady and the marquis had a fierce quarrel in the study.
The lady broke down in tears and asked the Marquis why he broke his oath, but what did the Marquis do?
He just stood there calmly, as if an outsider, watching his wife smashing things like a mad woman.
When the lady was tired of smashing, he said in an extremely cold tone: "Have you smashed enough? Don't you know who you made that oath to? Do you have the right to question it?"
With just one sentence, the lady fled in panic.
Later, the Marquis doted on the woman.
This made the woman's ambition so high that she even thought of attacking the prince. The lady had been stimulated to the point of being crazy.
She loves the Marquis so much, how can she tolerate him being gentle to others?
So, when the woman wanted to take action, regardless of the young prince's age, she added fuel to the fire and exposed the crime in time.
At that time, the prince was still being raised by the old lady. The old lady was furious and executed the woman in a fit of rage. When the marquis returned home, he saw only a corpse.
Thinking back, Madam Kong was afraid that Lin would go crazy again, so she quickly said, "Madam, you must be worrying too much. If some lowly person seduced the Marquis, how could the people we have stationed in the study not know about it?"
"Besides, the Marquis is the master of this mansion. If he really likes someone, there is no need to hide it like this."
After listening to what Madam Kong said, Mrs. Lin thought of the brothel girl that the Marquis had brought back in a high-profile manner before, and she felt a little relieved.
"You're right. I'm the one who's getting stuck in a rut."
Lin wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and in a blink of an eye, she returned to her usual dignified and elegant demeanor.
She instructed calmly, "Prepare some cold tea and cakes tomorrow and I'll send them to the study early."
She wanted to see where the Marquis went after dinner.
Madam Kong responded respectfully and just as she was feeling relieved, the maidservant below came to report that the second young lady had arrived.
As the maid's voice fell, Zhou Lingyi had already stepped into the house.
"Mother, what's wrong with you?" Zhou Lingyi asked, looking at Lin's slightly red nose and eyes.
Zhou Lingyi's worried brows instantly wrinkled as he caught a glimpse of the porcelain cup lying on the ground, broken into pieces and not yet picked up.
My mother has always been dignified and calm, and I have never seen her lose her composure like this.
"Nothing, I'm just feeling a little irritated." Lin forced a smile and then scolded the maid, "Hurry up and clean up this place!"
The maid immediately stepped forward, cleaned up the room and left.
Lin took Zhou Lingyi's hand and sat down on the small couch in the inner room. She asked, "Why are you here now?"
Zhou Lingyi said softly, "I felt a little bored, so I came out to get some fresh air. Before I knew it, I was in my mother's yard."
Lin was somewhat moved. She reached out and caressed her daughter's beautiful face, saying, "You are indeed my daughter, and you care about me. Your elder brother and younger brother didn't even come to see me after returning to the Marquis' Mansion."
"My brother has his work to do, and Xuan also has to concentrate on his studies. They will naturally come to see mother when they have time." Zhou Lingyi defended the two.
"I wish I could stick with my mother all the time, as long as she doesn't get tired of me."
"How could I be tired of you? This mansion is lonely. I only feel that life is fun with you by my side." Lin said.
Zhou Lingyi thought of the figure he saw in the small garden and said, "If Mother feels bored, why not go to the front yard and visit Father more often?"
Lin sighed, feeling an indescribable emptiness in her heart. "Your father is very busy with official duties. How could I possibly bother him? I went to the study to serve her cold tea after dinner today, but he was busy with official duties and didn't show up."
Subconsciously, Lin didn't want Zhou Lingyi to know those things.
Zhou Lingyi frowned after hearing what Lin said.
"Mother said that Father is in the study tonight?"
"Yeah, what's wrong?" When Mrs. Lin saw her daughter's strange expression, her heart skipped a beat.
Sure enough, the next moment, Zhou Lingyi said, "I just saw my father outside."
Lin held Zhou Lingyi's shoulders tightly.
"Where did you see your father?"
Zhou Lingyi felt a little pain in his shoulder, but he still answered honestly, "It's in the small garden near Yunmengxuan. My father was in a hurry, as if he had something to do."
Lin's body stiffened, and his brain felt as if it had been struck by lightning.
Yunmengxuan...
So he still couldn't forget her and went to find her?
Then what does it matter if I have given birth to children for him and taken care of the inner chambers for all these years?
Could it be that he couldn't forget her? Even if she married someone else and had children for someone else, would he not mind?
Lin's eyes gradually turned red, veins popped out on his forehead, and he clenched his teeth tightly.
She is just a lowly concubine's daughter, why have I been stepping on her head for so many years!
No, she was unwilling, it shouldn't be like this!
Lin stood up suddenly and swept everything on the ground.
Tears streamed down her cheeks like raindrops. She covered her ears and wailed, "I won't accept this! Why? Why can't I compare to her after doing so much?"
Zhou Lingyi was frightened by the ferocious expression on Lin's face, and she stood there in a daze.
When Madam Kong heard the noise, she rushed in and hugged Lin. Seeing that Lin was immersed in her own emotions and looked crazy, her heart trembled suddenly.
She looked at Zhou Lingyi: "Second Miss, what did you say to the Madam?"
Madam hasn't been so out of control for a long time.
Zhou Lingyi was clearly still in shock, and he subconsciously replied, "I mean, I saw my father in the small garden near Yunmengxuan."
Upon hearing this, Madam Kong's pupils suddenly shrank.
I saw the Marquis near Yunmengxuan...
No wonder the lady is going crazy!
"Second Miss, why are you telling Madam all this for no reason?"
Nanny Kong didn't expect that the Marquis was still thinking about Lin Wanru, and she didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Madam Kong, what is going on? What happened to mother?" Zhou Lingyi asked coldly.
All of this was so strange. Not only was it strange that my father appeared near Yunmengxuan, but my mother's reaction was also strange.
Nanny Kong glanced at Lin, who had calmed down in her arms but whose eyes were empty and numb, and then saw Zhou Lingyi's stubborn expression, and finally sighed.
She helped Lin lie down on the couch and walked towards Zhou Lingyi.
"Second Miss, please follow me to the outer room and I will tell you something."
