Being a Lady of an Influential Family - Chapter 596
Chapter 596 Ms. Zhuo’s Extraordinary: Young and Beautiful (End)
One month later, the Sheng family, who had already sunk in Xishan, finally faced the fate of imminent destruction.
In the new round of big changes, the grand master stood on the wrong team and was about to be sent to the guillotine. To redeem his life, at least 500,000 taels are needed. However, the second son of the Sheng family had already lost half of the Sheng family’s fortune. At the same time, several people who had had a feast with the Sheng family suddenly fell into trouble and launched an attack on the Sheng family.
The remaining property of the Sheng family has also been consumed. The end of the Sheng family will be living on the street, one of them beheaded and one of them becoming gambling ghosts.
Zhuo Lin reappeared at the Sheng’s house at this time. Seeing the old and haggard appearance of Mrs. Sheng, who was graceful and dignified in the past, Zhuo Lin seemed to smile at last on her stiff face.
”It’s you?! Did you find someone to deal with the Sheng family?!” Mrs. Sheng grabbed Zhuo Lin’s sleeve and pulled frantically, “You wicked obstacle! You want to kill your big brother! You want to kill the Sheng family!”
Zuo Lin smiled and looked at Mrs. Sheng crazy in front of her, then looked at her father who was lying on the bed and couldn’t get up. She gently lifted her hand and opened Mrs. Sheng’s hand holding her sleeve.
“Mother, watching your eldest brother is dying, are you in pain?”
Mrs. Sheng reddened her eyes and said, “Sickness! I can’t wait to choke you to death as soon as I got down!”
Zhuo Lin said: “Yeah, you didn’t choke me to death, so… you killed my son.”
Mrs. Sheng’s face changed when she heard the words, and her body trembled, “What are you talking about? I don’t understand!”
Zhuo Lin said: “Mother, I hadn’t fainted completely at the time. It’s a pity. Why didn’t you kill me together?”
Mrs. Sheng gritted her teeth without speaking, Zhuo Lin said softly: “You didn’t kill me, now someone else should die. Mother, as long as my eldest brother pays for my son, this is what you earned.”
“You…you…” Madam Sheng staggered back a few steps, her eyes full of horror when she looked at Zhuo Lin.
This feeling is even more terrifying than the last time Zhuo Lin threatened her with a gun. She felt that the daughter who was smiling and talking to herself in front of her was crazy.
”Lin…Lin’er…” Master Sheng who was lying on the bed struggled hard to reach out to Zhuo Lin.
Zhuo Lin looked at Master Sheng calmly, “Father, what do you want to say?”
Master Sheng trembled his lips, “Lin’er…that was, your elder brother. When you were a child, he hugged you, carried you, and carried you. He also hurt you, you…you are brothers and sisters.”
Zhuo Lin said coldly: “His mother killed my son. Either she will die or her son will die!”
“I’m your mother!!” Madam Sheng’s sharp voice echoed in the room, “You unfilial daughter, you want to kill your mother!! You who died in hell…” Zhuo Lin coldly Pushing away Mrs. Sheng who wanted to hit him, “Don’t worry, you will be with me even if I go to hell.”
Master Sheng finally sat up with all his might, and shouted with all his strength, “Lin’er!”
“Father, please, this matter… just forget it. Let go of your eldest brother, let go of the Sheng family.”
Zuo Lin did not answer, Master Sheng said: “Do you want Dad to kneel down and beg you?”
The door of the room was pushed open from the outside, and the Sheng family knelt on the ground in the small courtyard.
Zhuo Lin glanced over, two sister-in-laws, a few nephews and nieces, and even a few concubines from the Sheng family and the servants who had taken care of Zhuo Lin since childhood. The ignorant children were sobbing and crying. They didn’t know why they were kneeling here. The already sensible child rubbed his eyes and cried, looking at the door called the aunt, the grandfather and grandmother.
Master Sheng tremblingly said, “Lin’er, look at them…what do you want them to do? Ahem…Daddy hasn’t asked you anything…this time, I’ll be your father…”
Seeing that Zhuo Lin was unmoved, Master Sheng struggled to get off the bed. Fearing that he would fall, Mrs. Sheng hurried over to help him, saying: “Master, don’t beg her! I don’t believe that she really dared to kill me in a rebellious way!”
“Shut up!” Master Sheng gasped and reprimanded his wife. He was weak in character and had never said cruel words to his wife. At this time, he was obviously forced to the extreme.
Master Sheng finally stood up leaning on his wife, watching Zhuo Lin who was standing aside, kneeling down with a real thump.
“Master?!”
“Father?!”
“Grandfather!!!”
In the room, in the yard, an exclamation sounded.
“Lin’er, dad beg you…cough cough…Do you really want to make Daddy die?”
Zuo Lin looked at the withered man who was kneeling in front of her, she felt ridiculous, pitiful and pathetic in her heart.
This is her father, but he never thought of protecting her. In such a patriarchal society, he allowed his wife to arrange his own daughter, and he did not dare to have the slightest objection. To be his wife may be very happy, but to be his daughter can only be full of sorrow.
Now, he is dying, and he has to use himself to threaten his daughter to protect his wife.
Compared with him, Fu Zheng, Long Xiao and his ilk should have committed suicide in shame.
But at this moment, she hates him immensely!
“Alin!” Sheng Zhuoyan rushed in from the outside, and was shocked to see the situation in the room, “Father, mother, you are…” He went over to help Master Sheng up.
Seeing the eldest daughter back, Mrs. Sheng seemed to have found her backer again. While helping her husband to get up with Sheng Zhuoyan, she cursed Zhuo Lin for being unfilial.
Master Sheng still looked at Zhuo Lin, “Lin’er…”
Zuo Lin ignored, Master Sheng finally couldn’t help but collapsed again.
“Master!”
“Father!”
The people kneeling in the yard couldn’t help but rushed in.
The room was full of noisy chaos, Zhuo Lin stood aside and watched this scene coldly, suddenly feeling all this boring and ridiculous.
Watching everyone lift Master Sheng to bed and call the doctor openly, Zhuo Lin turned and walked out.
Two days later, Sheng Zhuoyan took money from Wei’s family and rescued the young master of the Sheng family. But the money that was exported and swallowed up won’t come back, and the Wei family was also very unwilling to support the Yue family because of Sheng Zhuoyan’s behavior. The Sheng family sold all the things handed down from the ancestors and dismissed most of the servants before they could secure an empty ancestral house.
Half a month later, Master Sheng passed away.
On the same day, Zhuo Lin left the place where she was born and raised her. She thought she would never come back in this life.
”Alin, are you to blame your sister?” Only Sheng Zhuoyan came to see off. She has been in poor health since she gave birth, and her face has become more haggard after being busy these days.
Zuo Lin shook her head and said lightly: “This is my sister’s own choice. I have no right to blame you.”
Sheng Zhuoyan sighed lightly, her beautiful face was full of melancholy, she reached out and hugged her sister’s thin body, “Arlene, I know you hate…but, can’t do that. After all, we are…” looked at Zhuo Lin’s expression , Sheng Zhuoyan swallowed the words behind.
Zhuo Lin said: “Sister, please tell the Sheng family. As long as I’m alive for one day, they’d better not leave here, let alone set foot in officialdom. Next time, you won’t have so much money to save your life. Sometimes money may not be saved. It’s dead.”
“Aling, you…”
“I’m leaving.” Zhuo Lin didn’t want to hear what she said anymore, and said calmly: “Sister, take care.”
Sheng Zhuoyan also nodded, “You also take care.”
Zuo Lin turned around and wanted to leave, suddenly thought about it, then turned around and asked: “Sister, don’t you really hate it?”
Sheng Zhuoyan was startled, until Zhuo Lin boarded the boat and didn’t say a word.
After returning to the north, Zhuo Lin did not go to the capital but went directly to the four northern provinces. During that time, she was very decadent and very confused.
The lofty ambitions and good expectations for the future life in her once seemed to have collapsed. After leaving her hometown, she didn’t even know why she was still alive.
Whether it is a golden horse or a dynasty change, what does it have to do with her?
She just lived in a small yard not far from Long’s house in a muddle-headed manner. Every day she saw no one except her aunt and cousin.
If it hadn’t been for Long Xiao to break in and wake her up one day, Zhuo Lin felt that perhaps she would continue to do this until she died.
Long Xiao had just returned from the field, and he was still wearing an iron-gray uniform, and he looked a little dusty.
Not seen for a few months, Long Xiao seems to have changed a lot. Becoming more calm and sharper, the corners of the eyebrows and eyes are full of undisguised evil spirits, Zhuo Lin knows that he has just returned from the battlefield.
Now Long Xiao can be regarded as a real hero. Taking advantage of the chaos during this period, he already has his own soldiers and forces, and no one above his head can control him.
Young talent and Fang Fang are naturally different.
“You plan to keep going like this?” Long Xiao sat in a chair, looked at some small rooms and the simple furnishings in the rooms, and finally turned his gaze to Zhuo Lin.
Zhuo Lin poured a glass of white water on the table in front of him, and said lightly: “I’m fine now, but you…just came back, right? Don’t go back to see my aunt and sister-in-law. What are you doing here?” He even had clothes. Before he had time to change, Zhuo Lin could naturally see that he might have come directly before he went home.
Long Xiao raised his sword eyebrows and said: “I just fought Fu Zheng, I guess you didn’t read the newspaper.”
Zuo Lin was startled, she did not look at it.
Suddenly heard the name Fu Zheng she was in a trance for a moment, this name seemed to be far away from her, and it was a little strange.
Seeing Zhuo Lin not speaking, Long Xiao smiled and said: “Fu Zheng and Wang Derui fell out.”
“Then?” Zhuo Lin was not surprised, Wang Derui was not tolerant, and Fu Zheng was not a thing in the pool. Sooner or later, the two men would fall out.
Long Xiao smiled and said: “Wang Derui asked me to help kill Cai Fu Zheng. We fought a battle first. Then…” Long Xiao smiled meaningfully, “We teamed up to kill Wang Derui.”
Zhuo Lin said: “Raising tigers is a problem.”
”Do you mean me or Fu Zheng?” Long Xiao asked curiously.
Zhuo Lin watched him not speak, and Long Xiao said with satisfaction, “It is indeed a tiger, but…even if I don’t help Fu Zheng, I can kill Wang Derui, but if I help Wang Derui, I might lose both to him, Fu. Zheng is now very cruel and cruel. The four northern provinces are not peaceful either.” He does not completely control the four northern provinces now, and temporarily does not want to interfere with the affairs within the Guan, the reason why he promised Wang Derui is just profitable.
After finishing this, Long Xiao looked at Zhuo Lin and said, “He asked me about you.”
Zuo Lin’s expression changed slightly, and she said solemnly: “Ask me what to do?”
Long Xiao said: “You sent his things back, and then disappeared without a trace. He is probably also afraid of something wrong with you. However, he has become quite a lot in this meeting.” Long Xiao It’s not a good relationship with Fu Zheng, but it’s still quite familiar. Naturally, you can see the changes in Fu Zheng these days.
Zhuo Lin said: “I am not interested in these.”
Long Xiao nodded and said: “He probably knows that you are in the Northeast, and he told me that you don’t need to avoid him, and he won’t bother you in the future.” Speaking of this, Long Xiao rubbed his teacup and smiled: “He is sitting now. Owning the land of three provinces, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses. The beautiful wives and concubines, and both children, can be regarded as proud of the spring breeze.”
It is said that the Feng family was shocked and gave birth to a son early, which was deeply loved by the old man and the old lady of the Fu family.
Although Fu Zheng did not take the Feng family seriously, the old lady of the Fu family also made it clear that she did not like the Feng family, but for the sake of his grandson, the old man of the Fu family still forced Fu Zheng to marry the Feng family.
“Alin, it’s been almost a year, you should come out too.” Zhuo Lin Long Xiao is also a bit guilty, no one thought that the turmoil in the capital would be so sudden, he simply couldn’t take care of Zhuo Lin’s side. By the time he finally took the time to go home, it was already the third day of Zhuo Lin’s birth. If he had sent Zhuo Lin back to the four northern provinces earlier, nothing like this would have happened.
Zuo Lin smiled faintly, “I know, cousin, don’t worry about me being okay.”
Long Xiao sighed helplessly, “Aling, do you remember those words you used to say? Are you really going to die in this small yard? You are like this…except for those who don’t like you to gloat for misfortune. , What’s the use? Now the situation is different, Arlene, I need your help.”
”What can I do for you?”
Long Xiao said: “I just took over these sites, and now the four northern provinces are still full of power. I am afraid that I will not have time to take care of the local people’s livelihood for a while. Arlene, would you like to try?”
Zuo Lin was a little surprised, “You let me… go to govern the place?”
Long Xiao asked: “What? Don’t you dare? You really have no experience, don’t be afraid, not now.”
Zuo Lin didn’t speak, she actually understood that Long Xiao didn’t really need her help, he just wanted to find something for her to do.
But, such a decision…it’s something unlike what Long Xiao would make.
Seeing Zhuo Lin staring at herself, Long Xiao did not hide it, and smiled: “It was someone else’s suggestion to me, and he said you can do it well.”
“Who?” Zhuo Lin asked.
Long Xiao said: “Prince An.”
Zuo Lin was taken aback, and quickly realized that Long Xiao was talking about Xiao Zhu.
In the sudden mutiny a year ago, Zhuo Lin lost her child and Xiao Zhu lost the throne and freedom.
Long Xiao knew that Zhuo Lin had a good friendship with Xiao Zhu, “I visited Prince Ann in the capital before returning. He seemed to be doing well, so he asked you specifically, this is his suggestion. Arlene, what are you thinking about? Sample?”
Zhuo Lin asked: “Do you really believe that I can do a good job?”
Long Xiao smiled and said, “The question is not whether I believe it or not, but whether you want it or not?”
Zuo Lin pondered for a moment, and said: “I need time to think about it.”
“Of course.” Long Xiao didn’t force her, and said: “You take your time to think about it, don’t worry.”
Zuo Lin looked at the man sitting in front of him and said softly: “Cousin, thank you.”
Long Xiao smiled and said: “If you really want to thank me, please cheer yourself up. Arlene, I don’t believe that a person who can keep going all the way to the present can be defeated by these things.”
“I see.” Zhuo Lin said.
Long Xiao put down his teacup and left.
Three days later, Zhuo Lin walked out of the small courtyard and walked into Long Xiao’s study.
Coming out of the study, Zhuo Lin officially became Long Xiao’s military office assistant.
Three years later, she served as an administrative official in a place under the jurisdiction of Yunzhou and became the first official female official in the four northern provinces. A few years later, he took up the post of Deputy Minister of Yunzhou, and since then opened the way for Yunzhou to move from the poorest and most prosperous places in the four northern provinces.
During her tenure as Deputy Governor of Yunzhou, Zhuo Lin sent away several governors. She was known as the “secondary governor of iron and water,” but everyone knew that she was the real master of Yunzhou.
In the 28th year of Emperor Anxia, Zhuo Lin was promoted to governor of Yunzhou.
In 29 years, he entered Beijing as the Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Finance.
In the first year of Daxia, he took office as the head of the Ministry of Finance.
In six years of Daxia, he took office as the second president of Daxia.
