"It doesn't make sense. Why would Third Brother sue me if he has nothing to do?"

Song Baoling thought for a long time and couldn't remember where she offended Song Lianxin, so she simply covered her head and planned to sleep.

Lian Jiao sighed, suppressed the strange feeling in her heart, and patted her head. What was she thinking about? How could it be because of her?

Definitely Miss Worry! Absolutely!

When Jun Tingsheng returned to the Prince's Mansion, Chai Liang was guarding the door of his courtyard. His eyes lit up when he saw him coming back.

"Your Majesty, you are back, how are you? Did you charm Miss Song today~"

Chai Liang touched his chin proudly. In terms of aesthetics, he was one of the best among the secret guards, and with the face of the eldest son of his family, he was simply a king.

He glanced at Jun Tingsheng and suddenly noticed that he had changed into another piece of clothing, "Your Majesty, here is the light-colored outfit I matched for you."

Jun Tingsheng told him what happened today, feeling a little unable to let go.

He usually couldn't follow Song Baoling all the time. If someone were to be like this again, he couldn't imagine the consequences.

"Chai Liang, go down and dispatch a few secret guards to protect Ling'er secretly."

"Yes." Chai Liang agreed and started talking to him about business, "Your Majesty, the Emperor seems to be becoming more and more distant from you now."

Jun Tingsheng naturally felt it, "I know that there have been some gossips in the court recently."

It's just that he has accumulated more and more trust and hope over the years, and his achievements are so great that Jun Yelan naturally doesn't want to be suppressed by a minister.

"From now on, you keep a low profile. If someone intends to impeach me, don't be caught." Jun Tingsheng instructed, paused, and then said.

"Continue to investigate this matter."

Jun Tingsheng spoke cryptically and did not mention anyone by name, but Chai Liang immediately realized what he meant and then withdrew.

The next day, Jun Tingsheng took the jade pendant with the corner knocked off and went to Gutian Jade.

"Can you help me find out who has bought this style of jade pendant?" Jun Tingsheng handed it to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper is also used to hanging out in front of many dignitaries. Looking at what Jun Tingsheng is wearing, you can tell that he must be a young man with a background.

The shopkeeper took out a magnifying glass, observed it for a long time and asked: "Which girl do you want to buy another one for, sir?"

Jun Tingsheng shook his head, "That's not true. What tricks did you see?"

"We only have a few of these jade pendants in our store, and they have all been bought. The name of the buyer can be engraved on it, so you can basically confirm it by looking at the words on it."

"But... the one the young master brought has a small chip on it." The shopkeeper turned around and took out a ledger and started to check.

"This jade pendant has been sold to Mrs. Li, Miss Zhang, Miss Luo, Miss Jin, and..."

Jun Tingsheng raised her eyebrows and interrupted him, "Which Miss Jin is Miss Jin?"

"Of course it's the young lady from the Jin Mansion, Jin Wanlin. This surname is so rare, who else could it be besides that one?"

The shopkeeper took the jade pendant and compared the remaining half of the character with the word "jin", "Oh, it really is Miss Jin's jade pendant."

Jun Tingsheng's eyes darkened, and he took out a piece of silver and placed it in front of the shopkeeper, "Thank you for your hard work."

He took the jade pendant and left. Seeing his face darken, the shopkeeper thought he said something wrong again.

"What's happening every day!" the shopkeeper muttered, rubbing his head.

Jun Tingsheng went to Jirentang and told Song Baoling the results.

"It's her again! Last time she slandered Jirentang's reputation, and this time she wants the young lady's life!" Lian was extremely coquettish and wanted to go to the Jin Mansion to argue.

Yu Zikong grabbed her and said, "Be careful before doing anything. If you go like this, you will not only be kicked out, but you may also be beaten."

Lian Jiao wilted, "Then let her be so unscrupulous?"

"Bang——!" The door in front of Jiren Hall was knocked to the point of collapse, making a huge noise, and a woman fell to the ground.

Lian Jiao was startled and saw the woman lying at her feet. She carefully pushed the woman's hair away from her forehead.

"Lan He?!" Lian Jiao cried out in disbelief. Lan He fell to the ground and had no strength to get up again. He was dying and grabbed her hand.

"Please, help me..."

"Pa—!" A whip hit Lian Jiao's hand hard. Lian Jiao let go of Lan He's hand in pain, leaving a red mark on the back of her hand.

The whip still had barbs on it, and the flesh and blood were ripped open. Fortunately, she let go quickly and it wasn't that serious.

Lanhe was not so lucky.

Her whole body was covered in bruises, with marks from whips all over her body. The flesh and blood under her skin had been turned up by the beating, and her clothes were stained red with blood.

Lian Jiao immediately went to help her, and whipped the whip again, but Yu Zikong caught it, with an angry voice: "Miss Jin, you are a bit bullying others!"

Lian Jiao took advantage of this opportunity to help Lan He into the inner room and found that she was protecting her stomach regardless of her injuries.

Jin Wanlin wanted to pull back the whip but was not as strong as Yu Zikong. She became angry and said, "Why are you blocking me here? She has to take care of that bitch herself. She deserves to be beaten!"

Jun Tingsheng lowered his eyes, he didn't even need to visit him at home, he came to his door himself.

"I just found out today that the daughter taught by Mr. Jin turns out to be like this."

Jin Wanlin was stunned when she heard Jun Tingsheng's voice. She turned around and saw confusion flashing in Song Baoling's eyes, "Song Baoling! Haven't you already..."

Realizing that the secret was exposed, Jin Wanlin stopped her mouth in time. Song Baoling asked, "What have I done? Miss Jin, please finish what you said."

Jin Wanlin frowned and suppressed her thoughts, "I don't care what you do, just hand over Lan He's bitch!"

That damn girl Lan He actually got pregnant with her father's child without even realizing it? She has been spoiled since she was a child, how could she tolerate having another child?

And it came out of the belly of the maid next to her. She would never allow such a thing to happen!

But her father even cared for her in every possible way, caring more about her than himself, and even transferred Lan He to him.

Isn't this just to protect her and her mother? Today, while her father is away, she must kill this bitch!

Jun Tingsheng approached Jin Wanlin, and when he saw her, she suddenly became dazed and subconsciously wanted to put away the whip.

She has always maintained a gentle image in front of Jun Tingsheng, but today it was all ruined because of this girl Lan He!

"Your Majesty, please listen to my explanation. This girl Lan He is so shameless that she insists on crawling into my father's bed!"

Jin Wanlin tried hard to restore her image and create the impression that she was the weak one.

"Since Miss Jin knows that Lan He is pregnant with Mr. Jin's child, she should tell Mr. Jin if she has any resentment."

"Taking it out on a little maid? Or is it that Miss Jin is used to such vicious things?"

Jun Tingsheng looked at her coldly, his tone cold, not at all as gentle as when he faced Song Baoling.

Then he took out a jade pendant from his arms and waved it in front of Jin Wanlin's eyes.
