Chapter 103: If He Died

Lin Jiu was the godson that Lin Qing had recognized. Lin Qing recognized him because he was clever and quick-witted. Of course, the most important reason was that Lin Qing had no son. It was just that this was before he got together with Zhao Zimu.

However, if one wanted Lin Qing to recognize a godson now, he would be unable to do so and even would make things difficult for the one who mentioned this matter.

What does one recognize a godson for? He originally didn't have the ability to have sons. Make him more stressed by recognizing a son?

Lin Qing already had Zhao Zimu now. If he put a 'son' at his side now, wasn't that provoking Zhao Zimu? If one day, she tells him that she wanted a biological one, then, should he or she have it?

It was definite that Lin Qing wouldn't be able to have one. If Zhao Zimu were to have one, Lin Qing would definitely go crazy!

So, what did he need a son for? He doesn't have a son! Roll far away!

So, ever since Lin Qing got together with Zhao Zimu, he had alienated Lin Jiu and had never taken him back to Qiansui's residence. It was as if Lin Jiu downgraded from being his godson to an ordinary small eunuch.

However, the education that Lin Qing gave him has not changed. Therefore, Lin Qing still left some affairs of the palace for him to handle.

Lin Jiu had many merits. He knew how to handle affairs and how to please people, but his ambition was also not small.

Hence, after Lin Qing left, he got closer to Situ Wenrui in the name of Lin Qing. He almost completely one-sidedly helped Situ Wenrui bring down a bunch of ministers. During the time that Lin Qing left, the prison of the Department of Supervision was almost rewashed with blood. The smell of blood was tangy. Even at night, it was gloomier than before. It was obvious that the resentful ghosts and spirits had increased there.

After Lin Qing handed the affairs over to Lin Jiu, Lin Jiu assisted Situ Wenrui to fight Situ Yaohua wholeheartedly because as long as Lin Qing was here, there seemed to be nothing impossible that couldn't be done to bring Situ Yaohua down. By then, as long as situ Wenrui became the emperor of Great Liang, Lin Jiu would become one of his closest people. So, he didn't hesitate to follow Situ Wenrui everywhere and be his back call to gain his favor.

However, Lin Qing was forced into the grassland and it was very likely that he wouldn't be able to come back ever again. Emperor Jinghui must find someone to replace Lin Qing. This person was likely to be Lin Jiu.

However, Lin Jiu was on Situ Wenrui's side and had helped him offend many people. Would Situ Yaohua agree to promote him to be the Inner Chief Eunuch of the Department of Supervision? Would the many officials agree? Without even thinking, Lin Jiu could guess the result. Also, Situ Wenrui alone couldn't win over Situ Yaohua.

Situ Wenrui had almost no chance of winning. With just the status of being the legitimate son, Situ Yaohua could crush Situ Wenrui to death. Moreover, more than half of the officials at court was already on Situ Yaohua's side. Situ Wenrui's wish to pull down his eldest brother and sit in that position could only be considered idiotic.

Since Lin Qing could no longer reappear, the huge power he left behind would become a delicious meal for everyone. No matter if it was striping down or possessing it, it would make people go crazy.

Lin Jiu who has gotten the taste of power because Lin Qing delegated his power, how could he be willing to go into the abyss of losers with Situ Wenrui and with the probability to even lose his life?

Therefore, Lin Jiu began to turn his attention to Situ Yaohua. It could be seen that what made Lin Jiu loyal was not Lin Qing. Instead, it was what he could gain.
