On the wedding day, my wife was abnormal

Lin Zhen's mind was as clear as a mirror.

Mao Mengji is definitely not the kind of person who relies on power and bullies the weak.

Now that he has killed someone, he has come to ask for help in person. There must be something hidden behind this.

With a flick of his sleeve, he led the group into the elegantly decorated reception room. A short while later, a maid in a pink dress glided into the room and poured tea for everyone.

Mao Mengji had lived in the Gu Mansion before, so he was not too surprised by such a luxurious mansion.

However, Yue Wu, Mao Li and Ping'er were visiting such a magnificent place for the first time.

Their eyes sparkled with curiosity and wonder at the novel scenery around them, but unfortunately, the previous setbacks left them with lingering fears. Although they were now surrounded by beautiful scenery, they found it difficult to muster up the interest to take in the scenery carefully. They could only sigh and sit in their chairs, their expressions unable to hide their fatigue and anxiety.

Lin Zhen gently sipped his tea, his eyes gentle yet sharp as he spoke slowly, "Now tell me what happened."

Yue Wu told the whole story that happened that night. When she mentioned Lian Song's disgusting and vulgar behavior, her eyes turned red and crystal tears quietly rolled down her cheeks.

Mao Li was even subjected to forced molestation. At this moment, her tears were like beads that had broken off the string, she was choking with sobs, and was filled with grievance and grief.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

"Mom, don't cry!" Ping'er's tender little hands tightly grasped the corner of her mother's clothes, comforting her in a baby voice, her clear eyes full of heartache for her mother.

Mao Mengji clenched his fists and his eyes were red.

Whenever he thought of what had happened to his wife, children and sister, he hated his own incompetence and wished he could lead his troops to massacre the entire Lian family.

When Lin Zhen heard about this, he was also furious.

When Mao Mengji was at the Gu family, who didn't treat them like honored guests? Now that he's gone, those scoundrels have shown their true colors, completely disregarding etiquette and the law, and coming to humiliate them.

Such behavior is simply intolerable!

Lin Zhen angrily slammed his hand on the table, the sound filled with endless rage: "Well done! These scumbags deserve to die."

Yue Wu gently wiped away the remaining tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, her voice trembling slightly as she said, "There were four other people following Lian Song. When they saw Lian Song was beaten to death, they rushed over like crazy, but were also caught by Meng Ji..."

So that's how it came about that five people were killed.

Yue Wu looked anxious and continued, "Prince, Lian Song's father is the Minister of Works and has been a trusted minister of the Gu family for many years. He will never give up. What should we do?"

Lin Zhen also hesitated a little.

He was just a minister, so if he wanted to kill him, he wouldn't even have to do it himself. The real difficulty was how to act in a moral way without giving others any reason to criticize him.

After all, the goodwill he had painstakingly accumulated in Murong Yan's heart bit by bit might collapse in an instant like a sand castle hit by the tide if anything went wrong.

Seeing Lin Zhen's hesitation, Yue Wu thought he wanted some kind of favor. So she gently opened her red lips, as if holding a pool of spring water. Then she slowly stood up and bowed to him with an extremely graceful gesture, her cheeks unconsciously stained with two delicate blushes.

"As long as the prince is willing to lend a hand and save Meng Ji, I am willing to pledge my life to you and stay by your side forever, never leaving you."

Looking at Yue Wu's eager expression, Lin Zhen quickly waved his hand.

Taking advantage of someone's misfortune is not what a real man does.

Although Lin Zhen is not a gentleman, he is definitely not a treacherous villain.

He disdains to use despicable means to take advantage of others' difficulties to pursue personal gain; nor will he use saving people as bait to make a beautiful woman bleed.

Therefore, Lin Zhen planned to reassure them first: "It's okay, you can stay at my house for the next few days, I will take care of Lian Qiang's affairs."

After that, he ordered in a deep voice: "Come here, call Hou Chun and Er Gou to me!"

"Yes." The maid agreed and hurried away.

Not long after, Hou Chun and Ergou, wearing tight black training suits, walked into the reception room with brisk steps.

Seeing Lin Zhen's face as cold as ice and anger between his brows, the two of them quickly knelt on one knee and called out in unison, "Prince."

"Monkey, quickly take your men to Yuewu Restaurant, cut off Lian Song's head, and put it in a jar."

"Yes!"

Hou Chun took the order and left. Lin Zhen thought for a moment and decided that since they were going to fight, how could they not bring the fighting king with them?

Then he turned to Ergou and whispered, "Ergou, go to the General's Mansion and call Fatty immediately. Have him bring the palace soldiers to surround the Lian Mansion. I'm going to teach them a lesson today!"

"Yes!" Ergou responded, ran out of the door, quickly gathered people, and quietly went out under the cover of night.

Lin Zhen slowly stood up and walked towards Yue Wu with steady steps.

Yue Wu gently raised her head, just in time to meet Lin Zhen's deep gaze. The encounter between their eyes seemed to contain the most gentle warm sunshine of spring.

Yue Wu stood up unconsciously, and her whole body seemed to be gently surrounded by a warm current.

Lin Zhen's voice was low and gentle, like a wind chime swaying in the night breeze. Every word fell clearly into Yue Wu's heart: "From now on, no one can touch you except me."

Yue Wu's heartstrings were deeply touched by a warm current, and her eyes couldn't help but be filled with layers of red mist. She quickly covered her face with her sleeves, bowed gracefully, and her voice was choked with sobs: "Thank you, my lord."

After saying that, she gently tugged at the sleeve of Mao Mengji beside her, with a look of urging and encouragement in her eyes.

Mao Mengji finally woke up, his lips slightly parted, his expression a complex tapestry of unspeakable emotions. He seemed to be struggling internally for a long time before finally taking a deep breath and mustering the courage to say, "Prince...thank you very much."

Hearing this, Lin Zhen's lips curled up into a gentle smile.

This Mao Mengji is finally mine.

That's right, after tonight, he will be the number one general under my command.

"No need, just wait for news at home." After saying that, Lin Zhen smiled and pinched Ping'er's round little face, then went back to the bedroom to change clothes.

The news that the prince was going out to fight spread like wildfire and soon reached Lin Zhenxian.

Old man Lin Zhenxian was not asleep at night. He was sitting upright at his desk, writing with his pen moving quickly and the fragrance of ink filling the air.

Hearing this abrupt remark, he slowly raised his head, a hint of doubt flashing across his brows: "Going out to fight?"

Lin An nodded and said, "That's right. According to the maid, Lian Qiang's son Lian Song attempted to rape two women tonight. Coincidentally, one of these women was Mao Mengji's sister, and the other was his first wife. So Mao Mengji was furious and killed Lian Song. Now he has come to the prince for help. The prince is furious and wants to lead his troops to raid the Lian family."

Lin Zhenxian was not angry. Instead, a smile appeared on his lips. He gently stroked his graying beard and said with some approval, "Good boy, you have learned how to win people's hearts."

Lin An said, "Master, the prince hasn't left yet. Should we stop him?"

Lin Zhenxian waved his hand, his expression indifferent: "No need. Lian Song has always been domineering in the capital and has committed countless crimes. If it weren't for the Gu family members in the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple, he would have been dead long ago."

"But if the prince really leads his troops there, it will inevitably give people a reason to criticize him."

Lin Zhenxian said, "He won't. This guy is very resourceful now. Even if he leads the troops, he won't kill people wantonly. At most, he will punish the Lian family slightly to calm the situation. After all, Lian Qiang has many children and grandchildren. Losing one is not a big deal."

"I don't need to worry about that. I'll arrange for someone to secretly monitor it."

"Yeah." Lin Zhenxian nodded slightly.

When Lin An retreated, there was still a faint smile on his face.

This naughty grandson has made great progress. He knows how to use his own strength to deal with the enemy instead of crying and begging for help.

Okay, really good.

Lian Qiang, ah Lian Qiang, you are unlucky to meet my grandson.
