What favor are you fighting for?The empress's harem has won a lot of business

The good story about Lin Guiren using his own body to solve the difficulties of the common people came from the imperial hospital, and the source was those two imperial physicians.

At the end of October, a rain mixed with light snow fell, and Dasheng entered winter in the capital.

People put on cotton-padded clothes and trousers, and began to put their hands into their cuffs for daily travel.

Lin Ximeng was wearing a half-worn squirrel fur jacket in a honey-colored color, matched with a garnet red floral velvet skirt, holding a small pumpkin stove in her hand, and wearing a jewelry hairpin ring that only belonged to noble people.

She spread out her pink and white cloak and prostrated herself in the imperial study, begging the emperor for mercy.

Xie Chenyu's face immediately became as calm as water.

"Lin, your body has just recovered, what are you doing?"

"The concubine has something to ask, please be gracious to the emperor"

The past two months have been like a dream, and every day when I open my eyes, there are a large number of patients, and I am so busy that I forget to sleep and eat.

It is far inferior to traveling in the mountains and rivers in the south of the Yangtze River.

When she returned to the capital, she suffered from a serious illness, and she recovered after recuperation and treatment. She has not completely recovered until now.

But the emperor has not been idle these few months.

Xue Xiang, a handsome gentleman on the surface, is actually greedy for life, afraid of death and cowardly as a mouse. Zhao Prison's ten major punishments only received two or three of them, so Meng Zhengye's deeds were clearly exposed by dumping beans in a bamboo tube.

Xie Chenyu handed over the case to the Ministry of Criminal Justice and the Procuratorate for trial. In the past two days, there has been news that the file has been sorted out, and the charges have been settled.

According to the laws of the Dasheng Dynasty, if an official embezzles 3 taels of silver, he will die, and if more than 5 taels of silver, the three clans will not be safe.

No matter how many there are, not only the three clans will not be guaranteed, but even the descendants will no longer be able to be officials, and can only engage in other lowly occupations.

Meng Zhengye didn't have much silver in his name, but the amount of property he actually controlled had already exceeded one hundred thousand silver. It can be seen that he has made a lot of money by keeping a fat job all these years.

All the confessions and files have been sent to the imperial case, and the execution can be carried out immediately after the emperor stamps the seal.

But Lin Ximeng raised her eyes suddenly, and she said that she wanted the emperor to stop hearing the case and let Meng Zhengye go first.

"absurd!"

Xie Chenyu was furious.

The favor of the harem and the government affairs of the court are two different things, he clearly distinguishes them, and will never be manipulated by others.

"Do you know what you're talking about?"

"I know that your medical skills are superb, and you have worked hard on this trip to the southwest. I also plan to wait for you to recover, and I will promote you and give you glory."

Xie Chenyu got up, walked to Lin Ximeng step by step, and looked at her embarrassingly.

"You already have merits and virtues. Filial piety is the first to heal the empress dowager's illness, and virtuousness is the second to save the people in the southwest. Even if you are a concubine or a concubine, your courtiers will not say anything."

Xie Chenyu gritted his teeth: "When you get a high position, I will find a way to bring your family back. Then you will be reunited and enjoy the same glory and wealth."

Xie Chenyu was condescending, all the words summed up had only one meaning.

'I have already paved the way for you, don't be ignorant'

"But the concubine is unwilling!"

Lin Ximeng's head was buried very low, and her forehead touched the ground. If you look carefully, her back is actually very straight, and she only bends at the waist.

"But my father was wronged, he should be punished"

Xie Chenyu threw up his sleeves angrily: "I know he was wronged, if it wasn't for being wronged, do you think you can be here? Do you think I would take such painstaking efforts?"

"Then the emperor might as well send the Buddha to the west to clear my father of the crime, and I will naturally be promoted to concubine in a fair manner."

Maybe this body still has residual consciousness, maybe Lin Ximeng also felt that General Lin was wronged by this, anyway, her temper suddenly became stubborn.

Knowing that there is a road in front of me that seems impossible, I just want to try.

Xie Chenyu was so angry that he walked around the house three or four times, his purple-gold cloud-patterned boots creaked, and his sleeves fluttered in the wind.

He sneered and pointed at Lin Ximeng's forehead, wanting to say something, but he gritted his teeth but couldn't.

He only gritted his teeth and choked out a sentence.

"I tell you, the case will never be investigated for a long time. If you insist on not following through, your clansmen will continue to suffer. Your younger brother can only continue to be a guard, and you will never be promoted. Think about it yourself."

"But Concubine Meng said she has a way"

"The Meng family is the breakthrough point. Please let the emperor let his concubine give it a try. If it succeeds, the concubine would like the emperor to help me. If not, the concubine will follow the emperor's arrangement from now on and be a virtuous concubine in the palace."

Of course she didn't want her mother and the others to work all the time, but she wanted to give it a go.

The Meng family was by no means innocent in what happened back then.

Xie Chenyu sneered: "You are wrong, Meng Zhengye didn't recruit anything"

As expected, Lin Ximeng said that the adults in the criminal department only tried to interrogate how much he had corrupted, so who would pay attention to the case back then?

Xie Chenyu also thought it made sense.

He was silent for a while and finally strode away. Before leaving, he said: "I will only allow you this one last time."

Lin Ximeng was overjoyed and kowtowed to thank her.

Tears flowed from the corners of his eyes, as expected all these years of hard work were not in vain.

Been with him for six years.

From the very beginning, she revealed her identity, followed him to charge, followed him to be loyal, followed him to entangle with the queen mother, and played true and false love every time.

Whenever he needed, Lin Ximeng would be the first to rush out.

Finally, people's hearts are not made of iron.

Meng Zhengye's case was suppressed by Xie Chenyu, and all related papers were kept unpublished.

There was a lot of discussion between the DPRK and China, saying whether there were any mistakes or doubts.

In the middle of winter month, the rumors fermented to the climax, even Zhao Hai couldn't hold it, he muttered that he was just a eunuch, how could he know so much, what's the use of asking him.

Xie Chenyu knew that he could no longer hide it, so he simply let Meng Zhengye go temporarily.

"Not enough evidence"

"Existing evidence is reserved, and other evidence is under investigation. During this period, Meng Zhengye will first help out in the household department. If he does well, he can pay off his merits."

This imperial decree is like a boulder rushing into the lake, stirring up thousands of waves and water patterns.

Some veterans said that this was the emperor's kindness and kindness, and he was unwilling to embarrass the former emperor's veterans.

Some people also said that the emperor is conniving with criminals, how can he convince the public?
The court was divided into two factions, and they were noisy every day. Going to court finally became the biggest headache for the emperor.

And the woman who caused him such a headache was currently negotiating with Concubine Meng.

"My lord Meng is all right, I have fulfilled my duty, the next step is to see the princess."

Meng Yuxi stared at Lin Ximeng and turned her head away for a while.

"I didn't expect you to have such a great ability. You really did it. Lin Ximeng, you are worthy of favor."

Lin Ximeng told her to stop talking nonsense.

"About the case back then, how do you mitigate my father's guilt? It's best to tell everything you know and remember to bring evidence"

Meng Yuxi was reluctant in every possible way.

She bit her lip and twitched, thinking about what would happen if the gamble failed, but it turned out that there should be no good end.

She breathed a sigh of relief and said extremely impatiently.

"The food was withheld by my father"

"General Lin received the imperial decree to escort grain and grass. My father detained the imperial decree for half a month on the grounds of checking whether the imperial decree was true or not before giving it to him."

Lin Ximeng: "..."
