Lin Zhao is the illegitimate son of Ping Nanhou.
In his previous life, he recognized his ancestors and returned to his clan, in exchange for being imprisoned for three thousand knives, Ling Chi, causing his own mother and uncle's family to die in vain.
For the Hou family, the death of an illegitimate child is not a pity.
When he was reborn and passed the national examination at the age of sixteen, it happened that the Marquis Mansion sent someone to pick him up.
Lin Zhao decisively refused, "Tell Mr. Hou that I cannot climb up to the Hou Mansion. I will take my mother's surname as 'Lin' for the rest of my life and will never change my surname to 'Chen'!"
When Ping Nanhou heard about it, he sneered, "Those who are raised outside will not be able to get on the stage. If they are lucky enough to succeed, they will get carried away. If you encounter a wall in the future, you will kneel down and beg me."
However, Lin Zhao's imperial examination and official career were smooth: he passed the provincial examination to understand his Yuan Dynasty, the general examination to Hui Yuan, and the imperial examination to test flowers. He became a disciple of the emperor, entered the Imperial Academy, and was taught as an editor.
In the same year, the emperor's younger brother Ning Wang, a nobleman from Tianhuang, entered the cabinet by decree and gained power over the government and the public.
Unknowingly, King Ning appreciated Lin Zhao more and more day by day, supported him, and protected him.
Father and son were officials in the same court, but they did not recognize each other.
In the end, Marquis Pingnan couldn't hold back and blocked the illegitimate son outside the palace gate, angrily yelling: "What a bastard! How long will the trouble last? You are my son. Whether you change your surname or not, you are also part of the Chen family's blood——"
Before the training was finished, someone suddenly called out: "Mr. Chen."
Marquis Pingnan turned his head in surprise.
Prince Ning was not angry but powerful, and said calmly: "According to secular etiquette, I should call you 'father-in-law'."
"W-what?"
Father-in-law? !
Ping Nanhou was shocked and his pupils shrank suddenly.
Prince Ning looked at the young man next to him, with a helpless smile in his tone, "But Master Xiaolin disagrees." He stared at Pingnan Hou, "I will not allow anyone to hurt him, including you."
"You, you—"
Ping Nanhou closed his eyes and fainted on the spot with anger.
