Chapter 321 The Last Side
It was at this moment that Lin Yunmeng finally looked at him seriously.
"Seeing that I am about to die, my father's daughter, Meng'er, can you... forgive me for being such an unfit father?"
The father and daughter looked at each other, one full of apology and guilt, hiding the despair of dying.
The other is completely calm and indifferent, representing new vitality and agility.
"The person who endured your sixteen years of neglect, sixteen years of indifference, and sixteen years of loneliness is long dead. You apologized a hundred times but you still haven't replied. You apologized a thousand times but you can't wait to return to your little dream."
Son." Lin Yunmeng, who was so calm at this moment, was like a stranger, and said heartbreaking words.
Lin Lin's eyes slowly opened wide, as if he didn't expect her to answer like this.
Therefore, she does not forgive.
Lin Yunji couldn't help but take a step forward. Lin Xiaoming's mouth trembled and she subconsciously blurted out:
"Lin Yunmeng, you don't have to say that, right? My father is dying, why can't you forgive him? You are too cruel, Lin Yunmeng!"
Lin Yunmeng suddenly turned her head to look at her. Those eyes that seemed to have gone through countless years shocked Lin Xiaoming for a moment. At that time, the fear of being directly targeted by Lin Yunmeng surged into her heart again.
Her face suddenly turned pale and she couldn't help but take a few steps back.
"Cough cough cough cough!"
A series of coughs broke the stiff atmosphere, but like a more violent tornado, it stirred up the tormented emotions of many people in the room.
"Father! Hurry, the imperial doctor, please take a look at your father!" Lin Yunji shouted in fear.
The imperial doctor standing in the corner hurriedly came forward with incense and a bunch of maids hurriedly gathered around him. The hot water that had been prepared was still misting. Among the crowd, the person on the bed had a red face due to coughing.
The blush seemed to bring him a bit of life, and he stared at his daughter.
The daughter he had ignored for half his life, and who was ultimately filled with guilt but could never be forgiven.
Lin Yunmeng was invited out. Mi'er hurriedly stepped forward and carefully handed Lin Yunmeng a cup of hot tea. She reached out to take it, and Mi'er was stunned.
The lady's fingertips are so cold.
The movement inside became smaller and smaller. After a while, the imperial doctor walked out of the room, shook his head slightly towards Lin Yunji, and sighed: "Master Lin, you don't have much time, hurry up."
Lin Yunji choked, his eyes turned red, and he ordered in a hoarse voice: "Lin Zi, go and see Doctor Li quickly."
No matter how sad he was at this moment, he could not lose the etiquette of the Lin family.
Lin Xiaoming had already ran in. At this time, Lin Yunji turned to look at Lin Yunmeng, who was sitting on the stone bench, with a complicated expression.
"Go in and see your father for the last time. I hope you won't say those words again and let him leave peacefully."
The woman didn't answer, and went straight into the room. She just sat there, watching everything in silence. Their joys and sorrows seemed to have nothing to do with Lin Yunmeng. I really don't know whether to call her cold and heartless, or call everything in front of her hypocritical.
noisy.
Lin Lin's condition became even worse. There was no color on his face, and his eyeballs were filled with red bloodshot eyes. The anger was slipping away from his body little by little. He couldn't catch it. He could only watch helplessly, waiting for the boundless darkness to swallow him up.
everything.
He had to breathe for a long time even to speak, but he still tried his best to fulfill his responsibility as a father and comfort Lin Xiaoming and Lin Yunji.
"Meng, Meng'er, come here..."
Until the end, he waved to Lin Yunmeng, his eyes full of hope and love.
Lin Yunmeng should have thought he was hypocritical and disgusting, but at this moment she got up and sat on the edge of the bed looking at him.
Her father smiled with satisfaction and spoke full of pleading:
"Meng'er, can I beg you... As the head of the Lin family, I beg you, you must protect the Lin family... I don't treat you well, but ahem... But at least, the Lin family has raised you up, and I know that the people behind it are not simple.
, Yunji alone...can't bear it at all, but you can do it, father believes that if it were you, you would definitely be able to do it."
"In the past, it was me who didn't know how to understand pearls and jade, and you were left in ashes and burnt. This was all my fault, but Yunji didn't do anything wrong. Please protect him, protect the entire Lin family... Your sister Xiaoming is not married yet.
, please also take care of her and take care of her..."
Lin Lin talked a lot intermittently, and kept talking in this tone, as if he wanted to talk about it for the rest of his life.
He couldn't see her before, but now he begged her humbly.
This is karma, the cycle continues.
Until the end, Lin Lin took a deep look at Lin Yunmeng, opened his mouth and murmured something, then slowly closed his eyes.
She heard him say - "I went to the underworld to seek forgiveness from your mother. She will definitely be annoyed with me, so I will go and apologize to her..."
He begged Lin Yunmeng to protect the Lin family, but he did not dare to ask for forgiveness, because Lin Lin also fully knew that Lin Yunmeng would never forgive her father.
"father--!"
Lin Xiaoming and Lin Yunji rushed forward together.
Mi'er hurriedly supported Lin Yunmeng, who was taken a step back, and looked at her worriedly.
Lin Yunmeng tightened her palms tightly, and finally slowly loosened them. The ice field in her eyes seemed to quietly fall apart, but then quietly stitched together. It seemed that after that, her eyes became more and more dazzling.
She did not cry. The tears she shed for her biological father had already been shed when he personally kicked her out of the house in her previous life and knelt at the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion in the pouring rain to beg.
As early as that day, Lin Yunmeng, who once yearned for her father's love so much, was completely dead.
…
The prime minister is dead.
In order to express his condolences, the emperor allowed Lin Yunji to go back to the funeral in peace, bestowed several more honors on Lin Lin, and presented him with a bunch of funerary objects. These simple actions earned him a good reputation.
After receiving the order, Lin Yunmeng just curled her lips indifferently, a little sarcastically, while Lin Yunji next to her had a bitter taste in her mouth and sighed heavily.
"It seems that the emperor can no longer tolerate the Lin family, and now he wants to strip me of my official position."
Lin Yunji thought that the emperor had other intentions when he asked him to come back temporarily to take care of Lin Lin's funeral affairs. In addition, the Prime Minister's Mansion had been targeted many times before, and the emperor's attitude of pretending to be invisible directly led to him being wrong.
meaning.
"Then you are mistaken. Don't worry. Not only will the emperor not take away your hat, he will also promote you and let you go."
Lin Yunmeng said bluntly, straightening the white mourning clothes on her shoulders.
The two of them were sitting in the flower hall, and in the center of the flower hall were boxes after boxes of condolence gifts.
At this time, Lin Yunji was a little confused: "How do you say this?"
Lin Yunmeng glanced at him sideways, it seemed that Lin Yunji was still not smart enough.
"Don't forget, I am not only the legitimate daughter of the Luo Lin Mansion, but also the noble concubine. As long as the prince is here, my natal family will not fall no matter what. The status of a veteran of the two dynasties is too high, and it is embarrassing.
I took advantage of this opportunity and sent your army to the emperor in vain without retorting. If he doesn't treat you, who else will he treat?"
Lin Yunmeng first mocked Lin Lin and Lin Yunji for not being able to stand the Lin family, and then continued to analyze Lin Yunji's ashamed look.
"In addition, the emperor originally just wanted to destroy the prestige of the Lin family. Aren't you, a young boy who can be manipulated by others, easier to control than Lin Lin...his father? By promoting you at this time, not only will others be more convinced of the emperor
