Reborn as a farmhouse concubine, she raises a prince and is busy farming

Chapter 235 Bullying the weak and fearing the strong
Of course Lin Chujiu was angry. These boys didn't learn to do good things, but they only knew how to maliciously arrange others, and they even learned to fight.

Of course she was very angry and wanted to fight with someone on the spot.

But Lin Hongwu kept her here: "Sister, the exam is coming soon. I still want to take the exam well and don't want to be distracted by this matter."

"This matter is their fault. I don't want to take action. If I do, I will be just like them."

After hearing this, Lin Chujiu knelt down to comfort him.

"Brother, you did it to protect yourself, not to bully others on purpose. It is right to protect yourself. If you don't protect yourself now, they will only bully you more and more."

This is how people are, bullying the weak and fearing the strong.

Lin Hongwu shook his head.

He knew the truth, but he didn't want to take revenge now.

"The exam is coming soon. I want to prepare for the exam with peace of mind now. After the exam is over, I will solve this problem myself."

"Sister, what do you think?"

Lin Hongwu seemed to have grown up. Although he looked like a frail scholar, the determination in his eyes could not be deceived.

Lin Chujiu also knew that he could not protect a child for his whole life, he would always have to grow up.

"Yes, but we agreed in advance that if you encounter a problem that cannot be solved, you must tell me and don't make the decision alone."

"We didn't do anything wrong, it was the other party who did something wrong. If they bully you again in the future, just come back and tell me."

Lin Chujiu couldn't bear her brother to suffer such a great injustice. The exam was coming soon, and she didn't want her brother to be distracted.

"I know sister, don't worry, I won't keep it in my heart."

"That's good, go back to the house and rest, it's cold in the yard."

"Ah."

When Lin Hongwu returned to his room, Lin Chujiu was about to turn around and go out, but luckily he was stopped by Yuan Jing.

"It's so late, what are you doing?"

"Of course I go to those people and ask for an explanation." The younger brother has been so wronged, and it is impossible for the older sister to remain indifferent.

What's more, Lin Chujiu has played the role of a parent since he was a child, loving his younger brothers and sisters as his own children.

Seeing her brother being wronged like this, she couldn't swallow it. In the past, when the family was not separated, it was fine to be bullied by the old lady. Now that the family has been separated and has a place in the town, it is still bullied.

"Although it was someone else who made a mistake, you just promised your brother that he would resolve this matter by himself and not go back on your word."

Yuan Jing thought clearly. His younger brother must have his own reasons for not wanting them to interfere. He must believe him.

But Lin Chujiu still couldn't swallow this breath.

Yuan Jing could only comfort her and said: "Children will always grow up. A person must learn to face all kinds of things. Although you are his sister, you cannot take care of everything, and you cannot stay with him forever. By his side, you should let go this time and let him try it on his own."

Even if the younger brother can't solve this problem in the end, it's not impossible for Lin Chujiu to take action.

Hongwu must be given a chance to grow up.

"Yes, I think what you said makes sense." Lin Chujiu finally figured it out. He was just a little impulsive just now. Yuan Jing said to her: "It doesn't matter. You should always be calmer when encountering problems in the future. There is no need to be so anxious."

All things will always have a solution, whether it is urgent or not urgent.

At this time, the sound of birds suddenly came from the tree. Yuan Jing asked Lin Chujiu to go back and rest first, while he stayed alone for a while.

The bird flew down from the tree, carrying a note in its talons. Yuan Jing opened it and found Mr. Ouyang's handwriting on it.

Yuan Jing frowned, but hasn't Lord Ouyang returned to the capital?
A meeting place has been agreed upon above.

The corners of Yuan Jing's mouth raised slightly. If this is the case, then Master Ouyang should not have left yet.

If Ouyang Jianxiu had already left, then this note should have been written when he was forced by others.

Yuan Jing reviewed the previous situation again.

There are guards around Ouyang Jianxiu, and they are all top-notch masters. If he went back carefully, he should have arrived in the capital by now.

After thinking about it, Yuan Jing destroyed the note.

At night, after Lin Wenshan and his wife came back, they were all concerned about how Lin Hongwu's injuries came about.

Yuan Jing took advantage of the gap between everyone's conversation and went to the place agreed on the note.

Sure enough, when we arrived, Mr. Ouyang was there, surrounded by many guards.

Only then did he dare to step forward and call out: "Master Ouyang."

Ouyang Jianxiu smiled: "Your Highness, these are people of lower rank, there will be no danger."

Yuan Jingcheng nodded, he just didn't understand why Ouyang Jianxiu came back again and again, and now he's looking for him again.
"I have no choice but to come here today."

Yuan Jingcheng nodded and motioned for him to continue.

"During this period, I have thought about a lot of things, but I just feel that Zhang Buzheng cannot get into such a big situation by himself, not to mention that reselling private salt involves many things, and the relationship that needs to be opened is not a piece of cake, Zhang Buzheng confided There are very few things, and shopkeeper Liang of the blacksmith shop didn’t say much. Now that I think about it, there are holes in their testimony.”

Yuan Jing frowned: "Huh?"

"Although Shopkeeper Liang has partially confessed, we do not have key evidence. The evidence chain is incomplete, which is where the loophole lies. Maybe in the process, they will find someone to blame. If the person in the capital knows about this, In this case, the evidence will be destroyed in time, and I am here to ask for help from His Highness the Third Highness."

The surrounding guards were on defense, and Ouyang Hong was also on guard.

Yuan Jing frowned: "What help do you need from me?"

Ouyang Jianxiu explained: "The third highness has the common people in his heart. I can't trust anyone else, so I can only go to your highness."

Today's officialdom is no longer what it used to be like He Qing Haiyan, and many people cannot be trusted.

If you make one wrong move, your family will be affected, and everything you have done before will be in vain.

"Your Majesty has a secret mission. In addition to investigating the smuggling incident, he also needs to find you, the Third Highness. Now, one of these two tasks has been completed. Your Majesty wants to find you. It also shows that Your Highness is a trustworthy person. Only then do you dare to I’ll tell you the details.”

Yuan Jing shook his head: "I'm afraid I can't be of much help. Although I am the third prince, I don't have anyone available now, and I can't contact my former subordinates."

"It's okay. This matter has already been investigated by my superiors. I said I was going back to Beijing before. It was just a cover-up to expose others. We need to find the other party's evidence and quickly put this matter to rest before the other party discovers that this is a trap." Done."

"His Royal Highness has lived here for a long time. All he needs to help me is to inform me of some local conditions."
