Chapter 112 Female Supporting Character
Now it was Lin Anhe's turn to widen his eyes and asked in surprise, "Our family's heirloom jade token? How did it end up in your hands?"
"A family heirloom? Yours?"
Lin Anhe stood up and took the jade token to examine it carefully: "Yes, it is the heirloom jade token of our Lin family! It should have been in the warehouse all along, how could it be..."
Suddenly his eyes widened, and he asked incredulously, "Could this be the token that Madam Du mentioned back then?"
"That's right." Bai Zhaozhao nodded. Lin Anhe was very smart. He could quickly see that something was wrong with the Liu family at the wedding and cancel the engagement. He might have already made some guesses about her background.
"I went there earlier... ahem, when I went to the toilet, I found something wrong with the sachet and took out the jade token. Then I understood when I heard Madam Du falsely accuse us of having a token of love."
Lin Anhe was furious: "I didn't expect my second aunt would do such a thing! She is trying to kill our whole family! Why would she do this?"
Bai Zhaozhao asked calmly, "Is this jade token important?"
Lin Anhe's expression softened, and he said softly, "Thanks to you for hiding the jade token in advance. If the guests knew about this, our mansion would be really disgraced!"
Then, through Lin Anhe's narration, Bai Zhaozhao understood the origin of the jade pendant.
Many years ago, Emperor Kangxi led an army to overthrow the corrupt previous dynasty and appointed five families who had made great contributions to the founding of the country as kings of different surnames, which were hereditary for ten generations.
In addition, the Emperor Shengzu obtained a seemingly ordinary piece of jade at that time. A master said that it was a spiritual object between heaven and earth. So the Emperor Shengzu found craftsmen to carve the jade into six identical jade plaques, which he gave to five kings of different surnames as heirlooms. The last piece was naturally kept by the royal family.
Therefore, this jade token is extremely important to the five families.
According to historical records, two of the families had their titles and jade tablets taken back by the royal family because they had no descendants. Another family committed a crime serious enough to punish the entire nine generations of their clan and was sentenced to immediate execution. Later, the sentence was commuted to exile because the jade tablet was taken back.
Therefore, this jade pendant is not only a family heirloom, but also a life-saving talisman!
Bai Zhaozhao was stunned: I'm wrong! This jade token is not a pair! It's six!
So, the Lin family has one, the Li family of the Peking Palace has one, and the remaining four should theoretically belong to the royal family!
So the piece in her hand... is it a fish that slipped through the net?
Bai Zhaozhao felt like his CPU was burning out, if only Wang Jinnian was here.
Wait, something seems to be wrong. Before Bai Zhaozhao could figure it out, Lin Anhe said, "Ms. Bai... How old are you this year?"
Bai Zhaozhao: “…sixteen.”
Lin Anhe frowned: "Not fifteen?"
Bai Zhaozhao: “No!”
Lin Anhe still didn't give up: "Really? Could it be that the Bai family made a mistake?"
Bai Zhaozhao took a deep breath and said firmly, "Really, I'm not mistaken! I'm sixteen! Master Lin, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
Lin Anhe didn't know what he was thinking about, but he decided to send Bai Zhaozhao away first.
When he walked to the front yard, he saw a carriage with things ready at the door, and Lin Qingshuang was stopping a thin girl to talk.
"I've already told you're not welcome in my house. Are you deaf? Do you believe I'll beat you up?"
"You..." The girl's eyes were blurred with tears, "I just wanted to pay my respects to my grandmother. Why did you stop me?"
"Come on, Lin Wantang, there is no one here who is kind and gentle to women. Put away your pitiful look. Grandmother is still ill and has long been told not to see anyone, especially your family!"
When Bai Zhaozhao heard this, he was struck by lightning. Lin Wantang!
That skinny white lotus is Lin Wantang!
The number one female supporting role of Cheng Jiayu in the original novel!
She stopped moving, and Lin Anhe didn't say anything. He also stood aside and wanted to wait until Lin Wantang left before going over.
Bai Zhaozhao's mind was working fast. She remembered that in the original plot, after Lin Wantang fell in love with Cheng Jiayu, she gave him a spiritual object, which allowed Cheng Jiayu to directly get 5,000 points. Cheng Jiayu was overjoyed and asked her what she wanted.
She said that she was a concubine's daughter, not liked by her parents, and had been bullied by her uncle's legitimate daughter since childhood. She hoped to get her parents' attention.
So Cheng Jiayu agreed. He teamed up with a high-ranking official to make Lin Wantang's uncle commit a mistake, which displeased the emperor. He then framed him for serious dereliction of duty, which resulted in him being dismissed and exiled by the emperor!
Afterwards, Lin Wantang's father replaced her uncle's position, was promoted and had a raise, and was doing very well. Of course, Lin Wantang was also valued by her father, who tacitly approved of her relationship with Cheng Jiayu.
So, Lin Wantang's uncle is Marquis Guangping! Then the spiritual object she gave to Cheng Jiayu is... the jade token!
Combined with the previous gossip about General Tang Yanyan...Oh my God!
In other words, when the Bai family returned to their hometown to worship their ancestors, Cheng Jiayu used a filter on Lin Wantang, and Lin Wantang used Mrs. Lin Er to steal the Lin family's heirloom jade pendant and gave it to Cheng Jiayu?
No, it should be Cheng Jiayu who stole the jade token, and now this jade token is a fake without the mysterious energy! Later, Cheng Jiayu pretended to distance herself from her, but in fact, she was plotting behind her back!
Then Minister Liu is the high-ranking official that Cheng Jiayu is allying with to deal with Marquis Guangping! Therefore, we must find a way to cancel the engagement!
So, the second branch of the Lin family, Minister Liu, and Cheng Jiayu formed an alliance! But they didn't expect that something unexpected would happen and they would provoke the Bai family!
Think about it, if the cancellation of the engagement is successful, then Marquis Guangping will lose face, the second branch of the Lin family will split up, and then they will kill their own relatives for the sake of justice and expose the matter of the fake jade token. Marquis Guangping will definitely anger the emperor!
That's right! So Bai Hao's carrying Lin Anhe back home was also a help to Bai Zhaozhao, which indirectly ruined the plan!
What a...good brother!
Well, next time when they compete, she decided to practice with Bai Hao hard, so that he can feel the gratitude from his sister!
(Bai Hao: Thank you!)
"Miss Bai! What's wrong with you?" Lin Qingshuang was already standing in front of Bai Zhaozhao, and said a little embarrassedly, "I'm sorry to embarrass you. That's my cousin. She loved to disgust me since she was a child. But now it's fine. She has moved away! Oh, by the way, I prepared a car full of gifts for you. Take them back and see if you like them. Haha, it doesn't matter if you don't like them. Next time you come, I'll prepare something else for you!"
After thanking him, Bai Zhaozhao turned to Lin Anhe and said, "Mr. Lin, I suddenly realized something very important. I would like to ask if there is a Grand Master you know that you trust very much?"
Lin Anhe was stunned for a moment, then replied, "Yes, let's go to the pavilion over there and talk!"
Lin Qingshuang looked puzzled, but since they still had something to talk about, she didn't want to disturb them.
Soon, Lin Anren came to the pavilion, and Bai Zhaozhao realized that he was the grandmaster that Lin Anhe had mentioned.
Lin Anhe was also very helpful. He briefly explained what had happened and took out the jade token that Bai Zhaozhao had returned.
Unexpectedly, Bai Zhaozhao said: "Master Lin, I suspect this jade token is fake, please take a closer look!"
