In the court hall, the emperor publicly announced the "numerous crimes" of the queen's family.

Even before noon, following Liu Zhan's order, heads were rolling outside the Meridian Gate and blood flowed like a river.

After that day, the strong smell of blood lingered for several days, and the blood-colored bricks and stones on the ground were still clearly visible years later. Of course, this is all for another day.

Because Liu Zhan captured the Queen's family quickly without anyone slipping through the net, and for his meritorious service in supervising the execution, Liu Zhan was publicly praised by the Emperor and raised half a level.

Seeing it, he was about to run to the position of the third level.

All the civil and military officials present were impressed. Liu Zhan rose through the ranks at an astonishing speed.

The emperor wanted to promote him and inspire the poor children. At the same time, he also wanted to fill the power gap that emerged after the queen's family was executed, so as to contain the Qiao family.

The Ninth Prince was also frightened because he was responsible for the assassination of the prince and was later kidnapped by his uncle. The emperor was considerate of his young age, so in addition to public praise, he also rewarded him with many things.

Only for the Qiao family, it was clear that Qiao Jingyang was wrongly imprisoned in the sky prison, and the Qiao family was imprisoned in the palace for several days, but the emperor never mentioned this, let alone any compensation.

Lin Yushi looked at Qiao Zhongtian who was standing in the front row. He seemed not to care about it and stood calmly in his position.

Turning back accidentally, the two people's eyes met, and Qiao Zhongtian nodded to Lin Yushi almost imperceptibly.

Only then did Lin Yushi understand that Qiao Zhongtian was very aware of the emperor's intention, which was to find the right time to weaken the Qiao family in various ways.

But it won't be completely weakened, because they still want the Qiao family to be a backing and stepping stone for the Ninth Prince.

"As long as Qiao Xiang's heart is like a clear mirror, it will be easy to handle. But the current situation is not good for the Qiao family, and we still have to rely on Qiao Xiang to come up with a plan."

Lin Yushi thought secretly in his heart.

Wu Zhao has long since recovered from his illness, but he himself is a low-key person and doesn't know how he can help the Qiao family.

After all, her daughter has married into the Qiao family now. If the Qiao family is in trouble, she will not be able to run away.

After going to court, Yushi Lin and his wife went to Qiao's house openly and openly.

News came that Lin Yue'er was suddenly ill. It was reasonable for parents to go see their daughter.

When they arrived at Qiao's house, Lin Yushi and his wife suddenly discovered that Wu Zhao, who was sick at home, was also there.

It was through Wu Qingyun's birth that he was blessed with twins, a boy and a girl.

Unexpectedly, everyone had the same goal, so they gathered at Qiao's house to discuss countermeasures.

Qiao Zhongtian looked very indifferent and said to the two in-laws: "Don't worry too much, His Majesty's thoughts are difficult to fathom, but the Qiao family is not a soft persimmon.

We keep a low profile and never argue about anything, but we cannot relax our vigilance and just act according to circumstances. "

Lin and Wu thought for a long time and found that it was indeed what Qiao Zhongtian said.

Unless you ascend to that supreme and supreme position, there is no solution to this matter.

"Forget it, Qiao Xiang already has Qiuhe in his heart, so we can rest assured and follow him."

It was Wu Zhao’s final word.

Compared with Lin Yushi, the former minister who took in the princess of the previous dynasty and carefully forged her identity to raise her, in terms of criminal past, he was not much younger than the Qiao family.

"Okay, it's rare for you two to visit my Qiao family, so please stay and have dinner together. It just so happens that Wu Shangshu can also visit your grandson and granddaughter, and Yushi Lin can also catch up with Yue'er."

Qiao Zhongtian sent someone to invite Wu Qingyun and Lin Yuer.

After Lin Yue'er's careful care during this period, her vitality has gradually recovered and she can get out of bed and move around more, and no longer needs to stay in bed all day long.

Soon, Wu Qingyun came to the study with Tuan Yuanyuan.

When he saw Wu Zhao, his eyes immediately turned red: "Dad, my daughter is unfilial and has caused you to get involved in the disputes of the Qiao family."

Wu Zhao shook his head, stroked Wu Qingyun's hair and said, "Dad doesn't care, as long as you are well, I won't hesitate to risk your life."

On the other side, Lin Yushi looked at Lin Yue'er, but he was very worried.

It has been some time since my daughter got married. I heard that she and Qiao Jingchen are very affectionate, but there is still no movement in her stomach.

He wanted to ask Dr. Lin to take a look at Yue'er first, but considering that Yue'er herself was an expert in gynecology, she might have an idea of ​​her physical condition.

When the words come to my lips, I can't say them anymore.

Fortunately, when he saw that his daughter looked very good and was in a good mood, a big stone fell to the ground somewhat.

"Yue'er, if you have time, come back and have a look. Your grandfather has been wondering from time to time since you got married, wondering if you are doing well. You can come back and have a look so that he can feel at ease."

Lin Yushi glanced at Qiao Jingchen, who was sitting next to him, and then added: "Jingchen, come too. We are a family now, and we should sit down and have a reunion dinner together."

"Don't worry, father-in-law. The situation in the DPRK and China will be stable in a few days. My son-in-law will take Yue'er home for a visit."

Qiao Jingchen immediately said respectfully.

He knew that Lin Yushi was still dissatisfied with him because of the situation of the Qiao family, but it was because of Lin Yue'er's loyalty to him that he had no choice but to agree to the marriage.

It was rare to see Lin Yushi's attitude soften, so Qiao Jingchen naturally wanted to seize this opportunity to improve the relationship with Lin Yushi.

Soon after, Wu Zhao and Lin Yushi both said goodbye.

The purpose of their trip has been achieved. If they linger for too long, they may arouse the emperor's fear and attention again.

After having dinner with the whole family, Lin Yuer followed Qiao Jingchen back to her room.

She thought of the way her father looked at her today, as if there were many words left unsaid.

Moreover, since marrying into the Lin family, she has never returned to the Lin family's thatched cottage.

For Lin Yue'er, who is used to going out to the clinic every day to see patients and take medicines, she is indeed a little uncomfortable after having some free time.

She stepped forward and helped Qiao Jingchen change into more comfortable home clothes. She was thinking about it in her heart, but she still couldn't say some words.

"Yue'er, do you have something to tell me?"

Qiao Jingchen was keenly aware that his wife seemed to be full of worries.

"I... Jingchen, I want to go back to the thatched cottage for a visit."

Lin Yue'er settled for the next best thing and did not fully express her true feelings.

"Do you want to go back and take a look, or do you want to go back and continue practicing medicine?"

Qiao Jingchen stared into her beautiful eyes, but he hit the nail on the head with what she was thinking.

"I……"

Lin Yue'er hesitated.

Her current identity is not only Qiao Jingchen's wife, but also the eldest daughter-in-law of the Qiao family and the future clan wife.

If he continues to go to the thatched cottage for consultation now, it will indeed attract criticism and slander the Qiao family.

Qiao Jingchen gently held her in his arms and said with a smile: "Mom has already said that you have something on your mind. If you want to go back for a consultation, I will let you go with peace of mind. The entire Qiao family has your back, don't worry. It will make people laugh."
