Chapter 290 The Opportunity to Try and Make Mistakes

Lin Zhiqing's words always have a convincing quality.

Lu Huai nodded: "If there are any troublesome matters, you can come to the Lu family to find me."

"Mm." Lin Zhiqing nodded.

After watching Lu Huai's figure disappear, Lin Zhiqing put away the letter on the table.

After careful consideration, she decided not to send the letter via the post station route.

Because now all forces are keeping an eye on the Lin family.

Yongqing County's location is too special, and Lin Zhiqing doesn't know much about Yan Yu.

If he were to be turned by someone, or if it were discovered that Lin Zhiqing had dealings with him, it would not be good for the current situation.

Therefore, this matter cannot be delegated to others.

Lin Yangyang is undoubtedly the best choice.

She has excellent lightness skills and can shake off others even if she is discovered. More importantly, Lin Yangyang is trustworthy.

Moreover, the faster the letter is delivered, the better.

Because Yun Jian has been taken into custody and can no longer send messages, if the woman with the mole or the person behind her notices something is wrong, the trail will be cut off.

Looking around, only Lin Yangyang is suitable for this important task.

She immediately went to Lin Yangyang and told her everything.

Lin Yangyang was also involved in the fire at the Ministry of Justice. When she first heard that the prisoner who escaped that day and the person who killed Aunt Mu were likely the same person, Lin Yangyang was filled with hatred.

"I was busy protecting my fourth uncle at the time. If I had known things would turn out this way, I would have acted sooner and never let her go!" She said this in a very childlike way, but that was her true nature.

Even Lin Zhiqing, in the dead of night, sometimes wondered what would have happened if she hadn't gone to Dali Temple that day.
If she hadn't gone to the Dali Temple, Aunt Mu wouldn't have been harmed...

When she's sober, Lin Zhiqing will question that statement with a big question mark.

From the day she arrived in Dasheng, she knew that her journey was destined to be full of hardships.

Even if you manage to dodge it once, what about the second or third time?
She was never strong enough; she couldn't predict everything accurately or protect everyone she wanted to protect.

From the moment she learned the truth about Lin Congrong's treason, she knew that if she wanted to lead the Lin family out of the mire, reopening Lin Congrong's case was a necessary step.

But she never expected that the price of taking that first step would be so terrible.

Coming to her senses from this suffocating state, Lin Zhiqing placed the letter in Lin Yangyang's hand.

Even though she was overwhelmed with emotions, she still had to get to the point: "Cousin, it's up to you now."

Lin Yangyang clutched the letter tightly:
"As for other things, I can't guarantee I can do them well, but this letter, even if I only have one breath left, I will deliver it to that butterfly."

"Cousin," Lin Zhiqing shook her head, "If you encounter danger, just protect yourself."

"The faith may be destroyed, but your people must come back alive. Now and in the future, you should always put your life first."

“If this approach with the letter doesn’t work, we can try another one. We have the chance to try and fail, but how sad will my uncle and the others be if they lose him?”

"I understand." Lin Yangyang knew in her heart that "they" definitely included Lin Zhiqing.

Put yourself in her shoes; if it were Lin Zhiqing who had the accident, she would also be very upset.

That's right, life is the most important thing.

After Lin Zhiqing gave her all the instructions, Lin Yangyang quickly changed into some comfortable clothes and quietly left the Lin family home.

After seeing Lin Yangyang off, Lin Zhiqing returned to Shuqing Pavilion alone.

Yun Jian remained unconscious, while Chao Yan watched over her. Upon seeing Lin Zhiqing arrive, Chao Yan lowered her head and stopped at the door.

"Asagao, what are you standing there for?" Lin Zhiqing walked into the room and then came out again.

In an instant, Asagao's eyes reddened: "Miss, I thought, I thought..."

"You think I don't trust you?" Lin Zhiqing said what she hadn't said aloud.

Asagao nodded emphatically.

“Yes, I did have doubts about you before.” Lin Zhiqing did not deny it: “But given the circumstances at the time, I couldn’t help but have doubts about you.”

"Asagao, I'm sorry." Her tone was very sincere.
"To me, Aunt Mu is no different from family, while you have been with me for less than half a year. Even if the scene were to repeat itself, under the circumstances at the time, I would still doubt you."

"I understand, Miss." Asagao wiped away her tears.

She offered no further explanation; she was a very intelligent person, just as Lin Zhiqing had first impression of her.

Lin Zhiqing's wariness wasn't directed at any one person, but rather extended to everyone except for a few people like Lu Huai and Lin Yangyang.

This was determined by her environment.

Lin Zhiqing reached out and wiped away Asahi's tears before entering the room. Asahi wiped away her tears and followed him.

Lin Zhiqing squatted down in front of Yun Jian, pondering a question.

Even though Yun Jian didn't say anything, she always felt that Yun Jian must have some connection with the Zhenyuan Marquis's mansion.

The news Lu Huai brought reminded her of something else.

Shortly after the fire at the Ministry of Justice and the prison break, Jiang Liuyun returned to the capital without being summoned and stood on the side of the Lin family, despite everyone's strange looks.

Lin Zhiqing had analyzed this matter before. At first glance, he seemed affectionate, but upon closer inspection, one could see that he had inadvertently amplified the royal family's dissatisfaction with the Lin family.

Now that there are new clues, Lin Zhiqing truly feels that this matter is always fresh and interesting to look at.

If Yun Jian is from the Zhenyuan Marquis's mansion, then it is almost certain that the woman with the mole who escaped from prison is also from the Zhenyuan Marquis's mansion.

Therefore, the person who saved the woman with the mole is very likely from the Zhenyuan Marquis's mansion.

Of course, this is just speculation.

Lin Zhiqing had this guess because the timing of Jiang Liuyun's high-profile return to Beijing was somewhat subtle.

She remembered clearly that not long after the prison break, Jiang Liuyun appeared at the Lin family home, saying he wanted to help them.

Once this happened, everyone's attention shifted from the prison break to the gossip about Jiang Liuyun's impulsive act of fighting for a woman.

Previously, Lin Zhiqing could only see the first and second layers, but now Yun Jian and the woman with the mole have opened up a new perspective for her, allowing her to see the atmosphere.

Jiang Liuyun's impulsive act of anger for the sake of a woman not only made the royal family dislike the Lin family even more, but also diverted attention from the prison break incident.

Imagine if Jiang Liuyun had secretly returned to the capital ahead of time, taken advantage of the chaos to break into the prison and rescue the woman with the mole, and then deliberately stood up in the Lin family despite being condemned by everyone.

The fact that he was not summoned back to Beijing was established, and people's judgment on the timing of his return to Beijing was also established.

In other words, no one would think that someone who had just returned to the capital had broken into the Ministry of Justice prison.

Thinking of all this, Lin Zhiqing sighed softly.

Things are getting more complicated.

If what I think is true, what is the identity of this woman with the mole that would make Jiang Liuyun use the Lin family as bait and risk breaking her out of prison?

What benefits does Yun Jian receive for working for the Zhenyuan Marquis's mansion?
These speculations seem to only be confirmed when Lin Yangyang brings back news of Yan Yu.
