The Prime Minister Seduced Me to have Babies! Chapter 538: Matricide

Jiang Youzhi bypassed this topic and began speaking about Great Chu joining forces with Jin Country to attack Great Liao.

Now, Great Liao has been beaten by Jin Country with no strength left to retaliate, and its destruction is just a matter of ti.

The court is filled with voices of praise.

Praising the emperor’s wisdom and saying the recovery of the sixteen counties of Youyun is just around the corner.

Lin Shuo drank a few cups of wine and cursed, "Absolute nonsense!"

"It’s the people of Jin Country who won the battles. The army of Great Chu is corrupt and incompetent, having lost several battles. Our Great Chu in this war rely played the role of containing Great Liao’s forces and consuming its resources for Jin Country."

"The sixteen counties of Youyun that were seized by Great Liao before are now mostly in the hands of Jin Country. Great Chu expended so much manpower and wealth this ti, without gaining any real benefits."

"Joining Jin to destroy Liao was fundantally a wrong decision! Just wait and see, once Liao is destroyed, it won’t be long before Jin Country turns its guns towards Great Chu!"

Jiang Youzhi sighed, "Brother Lin, let it go, why say these things? You and I are powerless to change this situation."

The emperor seems not to be a muddle-headed ruler, yet he indulges in poetry, painting, and gourt food every day. When it cos to national affairs, he possesses almost a scholarly innocence.

Lin Shuo shook his head, "I just can’t keep it in!"

He poured himself another cup of wine and suddenly said, "Brother Jiang, I fear I’ll soon have to leave the Capital City."

Jiang Youzhi was a bit surprised, "Didn’t you just return? Why are you leaving again, where to?"

Lin Shuo’s face showed a slight smile, "If all goes well, I’ll be going to Xiang City."

Jiang Youzhi asked in confusion, "Going to Xiang City for a position?"

"Is there a shortage of positions for you in the Capital?"

Lin Shuo shook his head, "I really can’t stay any longer in that ho."

"My father agreed, which proves that he no longer wishes to see either."

Jiang Youzhi advised, "Brother Lin, your situation, my mother ntioned it once. It’s just a concubine, the Marquis was just unhappy for a while, after so ti — "

Before he could finish, Lin Shuo interrupted him, saying one word at a ti while looking at Jiang Youzhi, "She was my biological mother."

Even the always calm Jiang Youzhi was greatly shocked, "How could that be!"

He now finally understood why, when he first t Lin Shuo, he was getting drunk every day causing himself gastric bleeding.

It was matricide!

For a normal person, it’s very difficult to face such a thing.

Avoiding it seed to be the only way.

Lin Shuo revealed a bitter smile, "Everyone thinks I’m the legitimate son of Marquis Wu’an."

"Even I myself thought I was the legitimate son."

"But after I killed my father’s favored concubine, I realized I was just the son of that concubine."

After saying this, the burden in his heart seed to have been lifted.

He went on to speak freely and openly.

"Since childhood, it was my mother who raised by herself."

"She, unlike other ladies in the mansion, never left her children to the wet nurses or servants. She always cared for personally, fed , dressed , until I was five, I still slept with her."

"The bond between us was much closer than between an ordinary mother and son."

"Until that incident, my mother was the person I loved and relied on most in this world."

"It’s just that, from childhood, my mother had always been dismal. I only found out later, when I grew a bit older, that my father had a favored concubine whom he treasured dearly."

"He never ca to my mother’s chambers, afraid of making that woman jealous."

"For decades, my mother worked hard managing the Wu’an Hou Mansion and family affairs, yet remained in an empty room."
