Chapter 417: Chapter 415: Lin Clan, Not Blind Loyalty_1

However, Su Ziqin himself was not interested, focusing wholeheartedly on his studies, which made her heart ache.

There was nothing lacking in the Duke of Zhen’s residence, except a granddaughter-in-law.

When the Duchess of Zhen saw Su Ziqin, her eyes lit up, and she was overjoyed. She kept urging him to stay at her home for a few days to accompany her little sister and enhance the relationship between the two sisters.

She had her own little scheme in mind.

Lin Jinxu would turn sixteen after the New Year, and it was time for him to gain military experience.

Boundary areas were bitterly cold, and apart from the stationed soldiers, there was not a single soul to be found.

It was even harder to replace a wife.

If they could settle a marriage before he leaves, that would be great.

Su Ziqin was elegant and attractive, well-mannered, and a student of the Imperial Academy. In the future, he would be an Imperial Court Female Official.

Appearance and status were suitable.

Although he was two years older, as long as the two children were willing, she, as their grandmother, would happily consent.

Seeing Su Ziqin, the Duchess of Zhen was overjoyed, and extremely attentive during dinner.

She chatted and laughed with Su Ziqin, and purposely had her grandsons Lin Jinxu and Lin Jinzhou, who were slightly older, accompany the two sisters and the Little Prince at dinner.

With their little sister present, the two unknowing Lin Clan boys were naturally filled with joy.

Hearing the call, they rushed to the Drunken Frost Residence, seated as guest and host, and dined with their little sister.

Being older, the two brothers courteously called Su Ziqin “Sister Ziqin.”

Su Ziqin was also well-mannered, without any awkwardness, and happily communicated with the Lin Clan brothers.

With Lin Qingluo intentionally livening up the mood, the meal was full of flavor, and their relationship unknowingly grew closer.

Seeing this, the Duchess of Zhen was delighted and secretly rejoiced.

After dinner, she specifically asked the two brothers to escort Su Ziqin back to the Academy.

Before they left, she invited them again to come to the residence whenever they had time to visit their little sister.

Lin Qingluo’s thoughts were crystal clear, her bright black eyes moved between Su Ziqin and her two brothers, and her smile seemed to curve her eyebrows.

At midnight, the Old Master gathered the Lin Clan boys in the ancestral hall.

He detailed the events that took place in the Mental Cultivation Hall that afternoon.

Righteous indignation filled the hearts of the fourth generation of the Lin Family, who eagerly wanted to avenge their little sister.

However, the Duke, the Crown Prince, and other elders did not agree.

Thinking of the Lin Clan soldiers who fearlessly protected the country, only to be met with the Empress’s suspicion, they were filled with inexplicable grief and heartache.

The Lin Clan boys protect the Fengqi Empire’s territory and its people, not the Imperial power or the Empress alone,” the Old Master said solemnly, facing the ancestors. He took the Tiger Talisman, which symbolized the glory of the Lin Clan army, from his bosom and solemnly handed it to the Duke.

“Each of you must remember, the Lin Clan values loyalty and bravery, protecting the country and your home.”

“But never blind loyalty!”

“If one day the Empress wants to destroy the Lin Clan, the lives of the 300,000 soldiers of the Lin Clan army must not be sacrificed to the struggle for Imperial power and the treacherous.”

“Yes, son understands.”

The Duke led the kneeling younger generations, clutching the Tiger Talisman, and solemnly swore,

“Son will definitely follow father’s orders, protect the Lin Clan army, protect the Fengqi Empire, and never disappoint our ancestors.”

“Good, get up.”

The Old Master nodded with satisfaction.

In the end, he solemnly reminded his great-grandsons, “Qingluo is our Lin Clan’s only granddaughter, and you, her older brothers, should protect her. Don’t let anyone bully her, not even the Empress.”

“Yes, grandsons understand.”

The six brothers of the Lin Clan solemnly replied in unison.
