God-given mother: The villain cub is super clingy

Chapter 192: Ningyuan Marquis Mansion has impure motives!

"The capital has been buzzing with talk lately about the Southwest Prince's wedding. Everyone is curious about the prospective Southwest Princess. Ru'er and I heard her name is Lin Yue, and she once fought alongside His Majesty to protect the capital. Even the Empress considers her a sister. Furthermore, she's a skilled doctor; she cured Princess Chaoyang's illness!"

"So, I thought it was a coincidence, so I asked someone who had seen her for a portrait, just to give it a try! Ru'er and I were thrilled when we saw it. Isn't this our Yue'er?"

"It's a pity that she disappeared for so long, and now she has become the Princess of Southwest. It's such a surprise!"

Lang was extremely excited and narrated the whole story in a clever way.

Lin Ru was also standing aside, crying with her head down, her face full of joy.

"Father, mother and I are so happy that we've found my sister, so we hurriedly called you here to share this good news. We also wanted to ask you to come and discuss this. My sister hasn't been back for so long, has she forgotten us?"

Saying this carefully, Lin Ru carefully observed the expression on Lin Chong's face.

Lin Chong was so immersed in great shock that he had not yet come to his senses and did not listen carefully to Lin Ru's words!

"How could she forget us? I sent people to look for her for so long, but I didn't expect her to be in the southwest!"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Lang quickly and carefully responded.

"My Lord, did the King of Southwest take Yue'er away when he stayed in Mengzhou?"

"At that time... Alas! You know, that maid had evil intentions and murdered Yue'er. She was locked up in the manor and even drugged. If it weren't for the King of Southwest's help, how could she have become the Princess of Southwest?"

There were too many things involved, and Lang avoided the important issues and lightly covered up the matter. They, mother and daughter, had gone to the manor quietly, and Lin Chong was busy entertaining the King of the Southwest at the time and had no time to take care of them.

After Lang mentioned it, Lin Chong remembered that there was indeed such an incident. At that time, the King of Southwest was poisoned. Few people knew about it and it was kept secret. Therefore, when passing through Mengzhou, no one except him knew about it, and he didn't even tell his family members.

He also secretly consulted some doctors, but those doctors all said that the poison was a strange poison from Mobei and there was no antidote.

But if Ye Yin took Lin Yue away, why didn't she find her back all these years, and the King of Southwest didn't say a word?

Moreover, he remembered that when Ye Yin left, he was the only one in the carriage! He was the one who saw her off personally!

Seeing the doubt on his face, Lang said with ulterior motive, "I once had someone test the poison that the maid gave Yue'er. The poison can cause insanity. It's possible that Yue'er has forgotten her past."

Lin Chong glanced at the mother and daughter of the Lang family suspiciously. In fact, he had some guesses in his mind that Lin Yue’s disappearance was closely related to the mother and daughter of the Lang family, but he did not pursue it. If Lin Yue really lost her memory and forgot her life experience, it would be understandable that she did not return home for so many years!

Now, if she becomes the Princess of Southwest, the Lin family's title can be further promoted!

Thinking of this, Lin Chong made up his mind. He had also heard about Lin Yue fighting alongside the current emperor and empress in defending the capital. He knew even more: even the Meteor Crossbow of the Ministry of Industry was improved by Lin Yue. His daughter seemed to be quite remarkable. After turning a disaster into a blessing, she seemed like a completely different person, with extraordinary abilities and superb medical skills. He was really impressed by her!

If I had known she was so outstanding, she should have enjoyed superb treatment at home and would never have let her live outside!

"Immediately send someone to investigate all the matters that happened to her in the capital, and then make arrangements."

Lin Yue's whereabouts in the capital were no secret, and everything she did was sensational, so it was not difficult to find out.

He even found out where she came from, why she came to the capital, and what her relationship with An Jinyue was.

After hearing the news, Lin Chong roughly guessed what Lin Yue had experienced over the years.

Ye Yin was poisoned by the strange poison of Mobei. Later he sent people to inquire about it. The Dream Flower was a strange poison. It was not just one kind. Once the poison took effect, it would make people lose their minds. If a woman met her, she could cure some of it, but it would make people fall into a permanent sleep.

Whether the news that the King of Southwest was able to return to the southwest safely and had been sleeping for five years was true or not, no one knew. Even the people sent by the old emperor to investigate said that they saw the King of Southwest, but he was just ill and not asleep.

It seems there's a misunderstanding. After all, it's highly possible that the King of Southwest has the ability to find something that can temporarily neutralize the poison. While he won't be in a permanent sleep, a long-term illness is possible.

Now that the King of Southwest has recovered from his illness and has rekindled his relationship with Lin Yue, this means that the two had no previous contact. Ye Yin must have found out about this only after meeting her and investigating.

As for her life experience, I think she hasn't remembered it yet. Whether Ye Yin knows it or not is another matter. There are two possibilities. One is that Ye Yin knows it but did not tell Lin Yue. The other is that Ye Yin doesn't know it and has no way to find out.

But Lin Chong has been immersed in officialdom for many years, so he is more inclined to the first option. Even if it is the second possibility, he cannot gamble like this. He will only bet on a possibility that is better for the Lin family!

So, within two days, a rumor spread in the capital.

Lin Yue, the eldest daughter of the Ningyuan Marquis's Mansion, disappeared in Mengzhou a few years ago. The Lin family has been searching for her in vain. There is even a portrait of Lin Yue from a few years ago that leaked out of the Lin Mansion. Then someone compared Lin Yue's name with the portrait and thought that she should be the same person as the Princess of the Southwest. In order to prove the authenticity of the portrait, the Ningyuan Marquis's Mansion took the portrait to the Yun family of the Huguo Marquis's Mansion and An Jinyue for verification, and even confirmed it to the emperor in the court.

An Jinyue and the emperor both felt that something was wrong and were extremely surprised to hear about this. An Jinyue knew that Lin Yue had no maternal relatives, but she didn't ask in detail. However, no one in the Ningyuan Marquisate had heard that there was an eldest daughter! It was hidden very deeply! Now that Lin Chong revealed this matter at this juncture, it was clear that his motives were not pure.

It was clearly the same person in the portrait, so she didn't dare to make a final statement. She only said that she had never heard Lin Yue mention her own background, and she had to inform Lin Yue as soon as possible!

The Lin family had no choice but to tell Lin Yue how she was framed by the maid and drugged, saying that it was possible that Lin Yue still did not remember her life experience.

As a result, the Southwest Palace soon received several inquiry letters from the capital.

Empress Gao Changjun, Fan Haihua, the Yun family, the Fan family... all those who had a relationship with Lin Yue wrote letters to inquire, either explicitly or implicitly, but most of them passed the letters to Ye Yin. These people had good intentions. If the Lin family really lost a daughter, or even if they were framed by a maid, then the Lin family who jumped out to acknowledge their relationship at this time were definitely not good people!

Ye Yin showed all those letters to Lin Yue!
