Chapter 634: Solving the Spy Case

Lin Che knew clearly in his heart that the emperor's friendship with him was undoubtedly a sign of his trust in him.

He bowed and said, "Your Majesty, rest assured that I will do my best to put this matter to rest."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, turned to face the window, and sighed: "This glorious Ming Dynasty needs loyal ministers like you, Lin Che, to protect it."

Lin Che left the study and walked out of the palace quickly.

He knew that this was also a test for himself, and it was also the beginning of guarding against risks in this new era of prosperity. He already had a lot of plans in his mind.

Waiting to embark on this journey full of challenges and ups and downs.

The night is as dark as water, and palace lanterns illuminate the way home.

……

A scorching afternoon.

It was becoming increasingly difficult to conceal the undercurrents in the capital. Lin Che, who was sitting deep in the study, met with a subordinate, who handed him a secret letter.

The letter made a slight rustling sound.

The secret letter came from Zhu Yuanzhang, and it recorded the secret meetings that had been reported frequently in the capital recently.

Zhu Yuanzhang's pen strokes were tightened, and one could feel his importance and worry about this matter.

Lin Che read it through and raised his eyebrows slightly. He knew very well that if these secret plots were allowed to develop, they would eventually become a scar in the court and might even endanger the safety of the royal family.

At night, in the courtyard.

The moon was rising. Lin Che stood under the swaying shadows of the flowers and looked up at the bright moonlight. With his astronomical knowledge, he accurately predicted the time of the moon's rise and thus estimated the time of the secret meeting.

With a wave of his hand, the paper carrying the confidential order was blown away by the wind.

Floating away.

Leading to everywhere, and on a night with a full moon hanging high in the sky, he personally sneaked among the shadows to the scheduled meeting place.

Passing through the fragrance of ancient osmanthus and night flowers, the capital city late at night is like a crouching black monster.

Some unknown secrets were quietly exchanged. Lin Che was as light and elusive as a shadow in the dark night.

The whole person seemed to merge into the darkness.

The meeting place was a deserted courtyard in the southeast of the capital.

People were hurrying by an old well that had been abandoned for a long time.

The sound of their footsteps struck Lin Che's heart like a loud bell. Lin Che hid in the shade of the trees, quietly waiting for those people to arrive.

Not long after.

Several figures appeared stealthily in the moonlight. Some of these people were eunuchs in the palace, while others looked unfamiliar and were obviously not citizens of the Ming Dynasty.

The men exchanged the packages in their hands and looked around cautiously, as if they could sense the crisis brewing in the night.

Lin Che flicked his sleeves lightly, and a thin ray of silver light emerged. That was the talisman he had prepared for a long time.

Eunuchs and spies were still exchanging secrets that they thought no one knew.

But they did not notice the silver light floating over and surrounding them.

Suddenly, silver light spread out like a silk net, surrounding the few people.

Caught off guard, they only felt an invisible force restraining their limbs, making them unable to move.

The silence of the dark night was broken by panicked calls.

Lin Che walked out from the shadows, the moonlight shining on him, and his calm voice spread slowly in the night wind: "I didn't expect that under the moonlight of the Ming Dynasty, there would be such a shady deal."

One of the eunuchs trembled and said, "Master, spare us, we...we are also forced to do this!" Lin Che glanced at them calmly, "If we were not forced, why would we take such a risk?"

"Everyone, you know that your actions are already extremely rebellious."

The foreign spies also collapsed on the ground at this moment, falling into despair because they could not escape.

One of them had a pleading look in his eyes: "Master of the Great Ming Dynasty, please give us a quick death!"

Lin Che looked at them, her tone slightly cold: “If you feel happy, it will come naturally.”

"But before that, you still have many questions to answer."

In the shadow of the night's battle, the full moon hung high in the sky, like a silver plate suspended in the air, illuminating the turbulent undercurrent, and Lin Che had successfully thwarted a conspiracy against the safety of the Ming royal family.

That night, Zhu Yuanzhang learned about the miraculous healing skills of the Imperial Master Lin Che and could not help but applaud him.

He had no doubt at all about the Imperial Master's ability to get things done, and felt that the Ming Dynasty was lucky to have such a person in the court.

The transaction under the moon was eventually discovered by discerning eyes, and the truth of the matter gradually became clear with the sunrise.

The whole of the capital city was full of praise for the imperial master’s prestige, and some people even whispered behind his back, “Imperial Master Lin Che is the wisest in the world, he is truly a good teacher who benefits the world!”

Lin Che remained as indifferent as ever, as if all the credit and praise had nothing to do with him.

He returned to his house and quietly immersed himself in the layout and calculations.

He knew that in the Ming Dynasty, there would be many more storms that he would have to deal with and resolve.

The Forbidden City at night.

Everything was silent, only the breeze blowing across the pearl curtains, creating a ripple of silence.

Zhu Yuanzhang sat alone in the imperial study, with a bright lamp shining on him. He was playing with an exquisite jade pendant in his hand, as if gazing at the years and wisdom sealed inside.

Imperial Master Lin Che stood quietly aside. Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes occasionally swept over Lin Che, as if he was impressed by the extraordinary ability of this wise man.

In this extremely quiet night, Zhu Yuanzhang opened his mouth slowly. His voice was like the melodious sound of a guqin, but it concealed deep power.

"Lin Che, I have been thinking about what the Ming Dynasty would be like today if it weren't for you."

Lin Che nodded slightly and said calmly, "Your Majesty, you are too kind. I am just doing my duty."

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled calmly and put down the jade pendant. A sharp determination flashed in his pupils. In the dead of night, he entrusted Lin Che with another difficult mission.

"Lin Che, I want you to find out who is the mastermind behind these eunuchs and foreign spies. I want to know who is behind all this."

"I want to make the world peaceful and tranquil."

Lin Che did not show any surprise, as if he had a premonition. He listened quietly to Zhu Yuanzhang's order, and then said calmly: "Your Majesty, don't worry. I have a clever plan to lure the snake out of its hole."

In the days that followed, Lin Che deliberately spread false information, revealing his weakness in fighting the alliance. These news seemed to have accidentally reached the ears of certain people.

And those eunuchs and spies began to make moves.

Lin Che seemed not to notice and continued to behave calmly as usual, making some un-heralded omissions in her daily duties.

All this seems random, but in fact it is full of murderous intent.

Soon, there was a reaction in the court. A high-ranking and powerful minister began to publicly question Lin Che's merits in the court.

It implies that he only relied on superstition to gain the emperor's favor.

And tried to shake Zhu Yuanzhang's trust.

At a small banquet, the minister even tried to embarrass Lin Che in front of everyone, using all kinds of sweet words, provocation and sarcasm.
