Chapter 84

"The key is to figure out the purpose of their smuggling saltpeter into the city." Lin Yanyan said.

"The beginning of next month is the 70th birthday of the Queen Mother. At that time, my father will personally visit the royal temple Tianning Temple to pray for the Queen Mother. So now Tianning Temple and some sections along the way are being renovated. I think the people of Beidi are probably here for this. Saltpeter is the main material for making gunpowder. So much saltpeter is enough to overturn Tianning Temple. The Ministry of Works is responsible for this renovation. I have ordered people to sneak in and investigate, and there is no result yet."

"If the people of Beidi really plan this matter, there will be their inner support in the court." Lin Yanyan was in a heavy mood.

A strong enemy is not scary, what you are afraid of is that your own people are not one mind.

"So, we must find out where the inner responders and where the saltpeter is buried before the Queen Mother's birthday."

Lu Zhaonan sighed: "Time is tight, and it is difficult to take Bei Di to kill the people who are in the inner circle!"

Lin Yanyan pondered and said, "No matter how difficult it is, we must investigate. You two are responsible for investigating Beidi's fine work and inner response. Leave the place where saltpeter is buried."

After seeing off Xiao Qian and Lu Zhaonan, Lin Yanyan hurriedly changed into men's clothes and went out.

She promised Uncle Hu to go to the clinic to help today, but Qin would come to the door. After so long, Uncle Hu was afraid that he would be unhappy.

In the imperial study, the emperor was furious after hearing Cao Quan’s reply: “Is this a rebellion in the Duke of Jin’s Mansion?”

The eunuchs and palace maids in the first hall couldn't help but tremble their livers and their heads drooped even lower.

Cao looked at his nose and nose, and he was only responsible for reporting truthfully. As for how the emperor made a judgment, it was not something he could just interfere with.

"The Duke of Jin's mansion is very disrespectful to the emperor's orders and disobeys. He actually dares to be in the capital. In the public's eyes, he uses guards to commit crimes at the court officials' homes to vent his personal anger, which has caused the anger of heaven and people. He is so arrogant that he thinks that the world is his surname Zhu?"

"Cao Quan, let Duke Jin and the generals get out of the way."

"yes!"

"Let Minister Lin go back and comfort his family."

Cao Quan hesitated for a moment: "Yes..."

When Cao Quan left the imperial study, he saw Duke Jin, General Zhu Guangqi and Minister Lin kneeling there.

Duke Jin and eldest son Zhu Guangqi looked pale, probably because he heard the emperor's roar.

After all, no one can afford to hold on to the hat of rebellion.

"Mr. Lin, the emperor ordered you to go back to your house to comfort your family."

Lin Zhongkun bowed his head and bowed deeply: "I thank the emperor for his compassion."

Lin Zhongkun bowed three times and was about to leave when Zhu Guangqi called him.

"Mr. Lin, I am stupid and reckless. I have just heard of it and feel deeply guilty. I also asked Lord Lin to convey my apology to the old lady. Later, I will come to the door to apologize in person." Zhu Guangqi, the second-rank official, was one level higher than the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites. In the past, Lin Zhongkun had to bow his head when he saw him. Whether he would pay attention to it depends on his mood. Today, he had to be low and small. The emperor was already furious. The Zhu family could only reduce his crime by obtaining the understanding of the Lin family.

Seeing that Zhu Guangqi was so humble, Lin Zhongkun was a little flattered and hurriedly bowed: "It's all a misunderstanding, just explain it clearly."

Cao Quan saw it and couldn't help but feel a little contempt for Lin Zhongkun.

Lin Zhongkun was called the representative of the Qingliu in the court, but he had no character in civil officials at all. He was not as good as his niece, County Lord Kangping.

Cao Quan couldn't help but think, if Ding'an Hou was still there, Zhu Guangqi would probably have been beaten to the pig's head at this moment!

Lin Yanyan rushed to Huimin Medical Center and went to apologize to Hu Guangzhi: "Doctor Hu, something happened to the student's home. It's too late, so the student will start working now."

Hu Guangzhi stinked his face: "Don't leave if the patient has not been treated."

“Yes, the students promise to complete the task.”

"You choose a good day and formally become a disciple. I am very busy and have no time to do these tricks."

"Ah?" Lin Yanyan thought he had heard it wrong.

"What? If you don't want to become a disciple, just get out." Hu Guangzhi said angrily.

Lin Yanyan then felt relieved and said with a smile: "Yes, when the student goes back, he will look through the calendar and choose an auspicious day."

I thought today was a bad day, but I didn’t expect it to be a zodiac auspicious day. Uncle Hu finally agreed to accept her as his disciple, which is a happy congratulation.

Lin Yanyan was full of excitement and energy. He spent less than two hours to finish the patient's treatment. He was thinking about his family affairs and asked Uncle Hu for leave with shamelessness.

"Since you've finished dealing with it, get out. Remember to come early tomorrow." Although Hu Guangzhi had a bad temper and was difficult to get close to, since he decided to accept Zhen Ri'an as his disciple, he treated Zhen Ri'an as his own. In fact, he really wanted to ask what happened to Zhen Ri'an's family. But Zhen Ri'an didn't say it, and he didn't want to ask. Even if he knew, he might not be able to help.

Lin Yanyan returned to Moyuan Pavilion, and Jin Xin told her that someone from the Zhu family had come and heard that he was here to apologize. At this moment, the second and third masters and the eldest master of the Zhu family were discussing affairs in the flower hall.

Lin Yanyan changed his clothes and rushed to the flower hall, and met Zhou outside the flower hall.

Zhou pulled Lin Yanyan aside and spoke.

"Yan Yan, I was almost angry to death. The compensation listed earlier, your second uncle said that the enemy should be resolved rather than to be formed. The Zhu family is willing to apologize to show their sincerity. The compensation matter will not be discussed."

Lin Yanyan was furious. She tried to arrange this to deal with it, so that the Zhu family would be well rectified, to make the Zhu family feel embarrassed and bleeding, and to let everyone know that even if Ding'an Hou's Mansion is gone, it is not something that anyone can bully if they want to.

The second uncle is too backbone. If the second uncle acts like this, the Ding'an Marquis Mansion will be looked down upon.

"Aunt San, where is the account book?"

"Here is here." Zhou took out a booklet from his sleeve bag.

"Give it to me, I'll go." Lin Yanyan took the account book and walked towards the flower hall.

Zhou hesitated for a moment and followed. Yan Yan couldn't bear this matter alone.

In the flower hall, there was a lot of harmony. Lin Zhongkun and Zhu Guangqi had a great chat, as if the unhappiness that happened before had nothing to do with them, it was all about other people's family affairs.

Lin Yanyan stood at the door and took a deep breath, raised his smile, and walked in with a smile.

"The niece has met the second uncle and the third uncle."

"Yan Yan, come and see you Uncle Zhu." Lin Zhongkun said quietly.

Lin Yanyan bowed obediently and bowed: "Yan Yan has met Uncle Zhu."

Zhu Guangqi had already learned from Qin that Lin Yanyan was a sharp-tongued girl, which was extremely difficult to deal with.

"The last time I saw Yan Yan was still Bo Yan's funeral, three years have passed in a flash, and Yan Yan has grown into a big girl." Zhu Guangqi sighed, but he felt alert in his heart.

"Yan Yan still remembers that when his father was alive, he often drank and talked with Uncle Zhu, and he was very close to him. Therefore, the two families made a marriage agreement. My father would never have expected that after he left, the marriage agreement was ruined. Today, Aunt Zhu led his troops to almost slaughter the Marquis' Mansion. Alas... It's really a matter of people leaving, and the tea is cold, and things are changing..." Lin Yanyan sighed, feeling endlessly sad.

Zhu Guangqi's mouth twitched. Lin Yanyan was indeed not a good person and was still trying to keep up with the morning affairs.
