Chapter 77 Haijin is about to rise up (Bonus chapter on New Year's Eve)
After leaving Lantai Garden, He Lingyi felt much more relaxed.
In the past, she could only walk alone in the shadows, but now she has an ally, a cousin she is willing to be honest with.
Strangely enough, even though the two of them had only met and spoken a handful of times, He Lingyi was willing to believe everything Haijin said, and her steps even became a little more cheerful.
Coincidentally, this scene was witnessed by Granny Pang, who served Lady Qin.
While a hint of surprise appeared in her eyes, there was also a touch of annoyance. Miss He was certainly a good person, but hadn't she already been chosen by the Crown Prince? If she were to become involved in any rumors with her eldest son, it would only further damage his reputation!
Therefore, he hurried back to Zhaoyue Courtyard and told Qin about it.
Upon hearing this, Qin was somewhat skeptical.
"Are you sure you read that correctly?"
"Don't worry, Madam. This old servant is not so old and blind as to be mistaken. How could I be wrong? For so many years, the eldest young master's Lantai Garden has not received any guests. If you don't believe me, Madam, please have the maids serving in the garden come and ask them."
Qin Shi's feelings were also complicated at this moment. Her son had not had any ups and downs for so many years. It was a great thing that he could finally have a conversation with a girl. However, this girl was the one that the Crown Prince had already chosen. Therefore, their Marquis's Mansion could not have any other thoughts.
Therefore, even after summoning the maid and clarifying the matter, it was to no avail.
unless……
Unless Miss He is unwilling to enter the Eastern Palace, or there is a more suitable candidate for the Crown Princess, she is willing to risk everything to fight for her son. After all, she likes Miss He, and she thinks she is good whether she is her daughter-in-law or her friend.
"Forget it, let's wait and see. Don't let your men alert her. Also, don't let them spread rumors. If they ruin Miss He's reputation, I'll kill them!"
"Don't worry, Madam. This old servant has already given instructions. The maids in the house are all tight-lipped. It's just... I'm afraid we might not be able to keep it from the Second Young Master and Miss Biao!"
"Yu'er has already gone to the imperial mausoleum with the Crown Prince, so it's alright. As for Wan'er, she cares more about Miss He's reputation than we do, and she won't say anything carelessly!"
Granny Pang nodded, and the misunderstanding that hadn't yet started was temporarily put to rest.
But to Qin's surprise, her eldest son had been going to the family study these past few days. He hadn't set foot in that place since his future was ruined three years ago. Could it be that he had been persuaded by Miss He to have a new goal in life?
They were both surprised and delighted, but dared not take any further action.
After learning about He Lingyi's "secret," the eldest son, Haijin, became much more assertive.
A surge of righteousness compelled him to take the matter seriously, especially since the Crown Prince was involved; he naturally couldn't stand idly by.
Inside the study, the Marquis of Haibo was surprised to see his eldest son appear, thinking he had come to inquire about the situation at the Prince Jin's residence. He then excitedly blurted out the answer.
"The joint trial by the three judicial authorities was incredibly thorough. I've also inquired carefully, and they say that of the sixty-two charges brought by Lord Zhang, forty have already been verified, and none of them are unjust. My son, your grievances will surely be redressed this time! Then no one will dare to gossip or talk about what happened back then!"
Haijin seems to have long since become indifferent to these matters.
He listened calmly, as if it were someone else's story, and then asked, "Does Father know if Minister Chi has been in contact with any families recently?"
"Why do you ask so suddenly?"
"Consort Jia is pregnant, and it's highly likely to be a prince. Otherwise, His Majesty wouldn't be so concerned. Although a young child can't influence much, for the royal family, any prince could potentially ascend to the throne, right? So before the Crown Prince inherits the throne, we must ensure that no one can threaten his position. That's why I asked this question."
"The prince? How can you be so sure?"
"It's rare for someone to be promoted just because they're pregnant, especially since the Crown Prince is currently at the imperial mausoleum offering sacrifices. So it's no harm to be a little more attentive."
"Then why Minister Chi of all people? He's the kind of person who loves to scheme and flatter. I'm afraid there's no one in the court with a higher rank than him who wouldn't fawn over him."
"As the deputy commander of the Crown Prince's personal guards, my second brother means that my Haibo Marquis's mansion has long been a member of the Crown Prince's faction. Minister Chi is related to us by marriage and should also be part of the Crown Prince's faction. However, he insists on getting involved with the Lü family through marriage. I suspect there is something fishy going on. Perhaps someone is instigating this behind the scenes. If that is the case, we should follow the clues to find out who is behind it, clear the obstacles for the Crown Prince, and help clear my son's name!"
Haijin's words made Haibo Hou nod. "My son is right, but I really haven't noticed this matter. Let me check it out... or perhaps you can handle it?"
Marquis Haibo cautiously passed the word out. Although he didn't have much hope, he still thought, "What if my son is willing to take on this matter? It would be much better than him staying cooped up in Lantai Garden."
As a result, Haijin simply hummed in agreement.
Haibo Hou was taken aback and didn't know how to respond for a moment.
"You...you agree?" Hai Jin's eyes widened, clearly not expecting his son to agree. Looking at Hai Bohou's expression, Hai Jin sighed and then added.
"I've caused my parents a lot of worry these past few years."
Haibo Hou's eyes suddenly reddened, but a man doesn't easily shed tears. He took a deep breath, patted his son's shoulder, and said comfortingly.
"Good, it's good that you can understand. I'll leave this matter to you. You're very meticulous and thoughtful, you'll definitely do a better job than your father."
After saying that, he handed him the plaque representing the hidden guards of the Marquis of Haibo's mansion.
Looking at the sign, Haijin felt as if he were in another world. The sign used to be like his own flesh and blood, an integral part of him, but he had to give it up later.
Does it hurt? Of course it hurts.
But when he saw Ho Ling-yi, who had been resurrected, still desperately fighting for his and his mother's rightful innocence, he realized that his actions over the past few years had only brought pain to his loved ones and joy to his enemies!
So, it's time to get out of that vortex that has plagued me for three whole years.
So what if his reputation is ruined? He can get it back.
So what if his future is ruined? He can start over.
He Lingyi was still struggling to move forward, so how could he, a dignified seven-foot man, continue to cower in fear? So after taking the badge of the hidden guard commander, his eyes changed a lot.
"My son will certainly not disgrace the Marquis's name!"
"Good! Good!"
