wealthy lord

Chapter 534: A farewell is better than a wedding, going to court for the first time
Du Sheng said with a smile: "The old man has always been responsible for the affairs of the Yun Mansion. This time the emperor will reward the Yun Mansion to Lin Zhongtang, and specially asked the old man to be your housekeeper!"

Lin Yun sneered inwardly. What a housekeeper. It seems that the emperor still doesn't trust him enough. Now he doesn't even have a reason to force himself to keep such a nail next to him to monitor him.

But Lin Yun couldn't refuse. He nodded and said, "Since it was arranged by the emperor, I will have to worry about Mr. Du from now on!"

"That's what Lin Zhongtang said! I used to be just a minor figure in the Yun Mansion. It's my honor to serve Master Zhongtang!"

Lin Yun was too lazy to say anything more and nodded: "Okay, we'll talk about it tomorrow if we have anything else to do. I'm tired after a day of tossing, so I'm going to rest first!"

Du Sheng said quickly: "Lin Zhongtang, at the fifth watch tomorrow, the old man will arrange a bearer to wait for you in front of the mansion! It is your first time to go to the morning court, so don't miss the time!"

Lin Yun frowned and said, "Isn't it too early?"

Ye Wanqing said with a smile: "My lord, do you think it is easy to be a high official? It is normal to get up early and work late every day! You will understand in the future!"

Lin Yun nodded and smiled: "Then there is Lao Du Lao!"

After that, he took Ye Wanqing back to the bedroom.

The last time they stayed in the Yun Mansion, they just rested in the guest room, but this time the emperor directly rewarded Lin Yun with the Yun Mansion, and they went directly to the palace where the emperor lived when he was a prince.

Looking at the luxurious decoration, Lin Yun was secretly speechless.

In comparison, the lord's mansion in Niubei Village was simply too shabby to look at.

Ye Wanqing pushed Lin Yun down and sat down on the bed.

Lin Yun asked curiously: "What is the second lady going to do?"

Ye Wanqing smiled charmingly: "Mr. sir, I have been reflecting on myself in the past six months. I was really too ignorant before! I will definitely serve you well from now on! Be a qualified wife!"

With that said, she helped Lin Yun take off his shoes and socks without any disdain, and brought a basin of hot water to help Lin Yun wash his face and feet.

Lin Yun was still a little confused. This was the first time he saw the second lady being so virtuous.

He could only enjoy this kind of treatment from the eldest lady before.

Lin Yunchang had just gotten into bed and covered himself with quilt when he suddenly saw Ye Wanqing walking behind the screen. She was only wearing a small red bellyband embroidered with mandarin ducks, which could not cover her proud figure at all.

Lin Yun swallowed his saliva as he watched, sighing secretly that this girl had changed so much.

It feels like Ye Wanqing has combined the advantages of the eldest lady and the third lady.

She has the reserve of a lady and the charm of a mature woman. The most important thing is to know how to please a man.

She sat on the edge of the bed and said charmingly: "Mr. sir, do you like it?"

"Yeah, yeah! Wanqing, you are so beautiful!"

"Hmph! Everyone has heard that Sister Wuyue is pregnant with my husband's child! I don't care, I still want a child!"

With that said, she got directly into Lin Yun's bed, not forgetting to pull down the red silk curtain.

The separation between the two was better than the newlyweds, like thunder from the sky and fire from the earth, and the emotional voices of the two soon came from the palace.

Late at night, the two of them hugged each other naked, but they didn't feel sleepy at all.

Ye Wanqing raised her eyes and looked at him, her face filled with the happiness of a little woman.

"Ms. sir, did you feel comfortable serving me just now?"

Lin Yun held the back of his head with both hands, nodded and smiled: "We haven't seen each other for only half a year, you girl has really changed a lot!"

"Hee hee! From now on, I will not only serve you in life, but also help you in your career!" As soon as he brought up business, Lin Yun sighed and said, "Wanqing, from the moment I came to Beijing, I have been with you for my husband. I feel unprecedented pressure! The Emperor said he believed in me, but, eh..."

Ye Wanqing said in a deep voice: "Ms. sir, in fact, the emperor's arrangement is understandable! After all, you only entered the court as an official on your first day, and you went to the palace to pay homage to the prime minister. Do you know that your current position is difficult for those officials below in their lifetime? The height to reach?”

Lin Yun nodded and said, "I understand this!"

"So! It's right for the emperor to be worried about you! If it were you, would you trust a person with great achievements?"

"That's the same truth! But what should Du Sheng do? Just stay in the house and be monitored by him all day long?"

Ye Wanqing pondered for a moment and said: "I don't think the emperor will always monitor you. After a while, he will find a reason to transfer Du Sheng away!"

"However, my husband, what you have to face next is Fulin'an, who is so powerful and has many disciples. This is also a test for you by the emperor. Whether you can gain a foothold in the capital depends on this time! So, you have to Do the job beautifully! Let the officials find fault! And even more, establish your authority!"

Lin Yun murmured: "Li Wei..."

The next day, the fifth watch.

Before dawn, Lin Yun, under the service of Ye Wanqing, put on his official robe for the first time. When he put on his official hat, Ye Wanqing suddenly had red eyes and hugged Lin Yun's waist from behind.

"My lord, our journey has not been easy! I wish you all the best! Let everyone in the Daduan Dynasty know that my lord can be the king and hegemon in Fengyang County, and he is also among the people in the capital. Dragon and Phoenix!”

Lin Yun looked at the bronze mirror, adjusted his official hat, took a deep breath and said, "Okay! I promise you my husband!"

After that, he turned around and pushed the door open to leave.

When they arrived at the gate of Yun Mansion, Du Sheng and the four bearers had been waiting for a long time.

Du Sheng immediately stepped forward and said flatteringly, "Oh, Lin Zhongtang looks really extraordinary after putting on his official robe!"

Lin Yun said with a smile: "Mr. Du, although it is our first time to cooperate from now on, I hope we can have a happy cooperation in the future!"

Du Sheng's heart skipped a beat and he smiled awkwardly.

He naturally understood the deep meaning of Lin Yun's words. He did not regard him as one of his own, it was just a cooperative relationship.

"Don't worry, Lin Zhongtang, I'm not that kind of meddlesome person! As time goes by, you will know what I mean!"

Lin Yun nodded, then bent down and sat in the sedan.

Since it was still dark, the street was very quiet.

Of course, the capital city is strictly managed, and a curfew is enforced every night after the second watch. Only the soldiers of the infantry commander's yamen patrol around.

After walking for about an hour and a half, we finally arrived at the gate of the imperial city.

Lin Yun opened the curtain on the side and looked around. Dozens of officials, big and small, had gathered at the door.

The officials recognized Lin Yun, who had just entered the cabinet to pay homage to the Prime Minister yesterday, and started whispering about what was going on in the sedan chair.

Among these officials, even if there were disciples of Fu Lin'an, no matter how dissatisfied they were with Lin Yun, they would not dare to openly provoke him, otherwise they would be seeking death.

Lin Yun let out a long sigh, secretly lamenting that going to court in the morning was really troublesome, not as leisurely as he was in Fengyang County.

At this time, four strong men with broad shoulders and round waists came up carrying a sedan chair. The officials around them recognized who it was at a glance and hurriedly hid aside.

I saw the fifth prince walking in the sedan with a smile on his face.
