Chapter 735: Secret leaked, Ye Ruhui wakes up
Being stared at by him like this made Lin Yun feel uncomfortable. Sun Dehai's eyes were full of greed and darkness, as if he was a beautiful woman without any clothes.

"Farewell!"

Lin Yun turned and left.

Sun Dehai stared at his back and said in a deep voice: "That woman named Cui Hongyu, Lord Zhongtang, you should give up!"

As soon as these words came out, Lin Yun suddenly froze on the spot, and then left without looking back.

He understood that the secret plan between himself and Cui Hongyu must have been leaked.

But Lin Yun couldn't figure out how the other party knew.

Could it be that his Yun Mansion has been infiltrated?

After walking out of the living room, Zheng Li immediately came forward and whispered: "Fourteenth Master, I just arranged for the ten soldiers to ambush near Prince Gong's Mansion and all were killed!"

Lin Yun walked straight out of the house with a dark face.

Zheng Li sighed and could only follow him out quickly.

In his first contest with the Queen Mother, Lin Yun was completely defeated.

Although he could barely suppress the opponent with the prestige he had gained in the past, he was obviously at a disadvantage.

If the other party could kill his men quietly, he must have figured out everything long ago.

Moreover, looking at this posture, the other party understood his style of acting, but he knew nothing about the other party, and he had already lost in terms of intelligence.

After walking out of the palace, Lin Yun turned around and took a deep look at the entire palace before getting into the sedan chair.

"Take all their bodies back! Wait for me to come back from Ye Mansion!"

"I humbly obey my orders!"

Zheng Li knew that his master was in a very bad mood, so he could only watch Lin Yun leave with clasped fists.

He remembered this humiliating moment today, and he must get this place back.

From the day Lin Yun came to Beijing to become an official, he had never suffered such a big loss.

In comparison, the several nuns and princes together were not as powerful as the Queen Mother. Even Sun Dehai could easily crush them.

After that, Lin Yun sent the antidote to Ye Mansion, and Ye Wanqing decocted the antidote herself and asked Ye Ruhui to take it, finally eliminating the drunken hazy poison.

Everyone in Ye Mansion was happy, and Ye Wanqing was even more happy.

Lin Yun was the only one who couldn't be happy. He understood that he had been involved in the internal fighting in the palace. If he didn't do something, trouble would follow.

Ye Ruhui, who had just recovered from a serious illness, leaned weakly on the bedside. Seeing that his uncle was worried, he whispered: "Wanqing, take your mother and the others out! Dad has something to talk to the second uncle alone!"

Ye Wanqing frowned and said: "Dad, you are still so weak now, so you should take a good rest! If you have anything to say, I can wait until you recover?"

Ye Ruhui said displeasedly: "Just go out if I ask you to!"

"But…"

Lin Yun said expressionlessly: "Wanqing, listen to dad and get out!"

Ye Wanqing sighed, could only nod in agreement, and silently helped her out of the room.

She could vaguely guess what her father was going to talk to Lin Yun about.

Seeing the door being closed, Ye Ruhui said, "What are your next plans?"

Lin Yun had a cold look on his face: "Revenge when there is a grudge, and revenge when there is a grudge! Does dad know why he was poisoned this time?" Ye Ruhui said calmly: "Because you are my uncle!"

"That's right! They are using my son-in-law's relatives as blackmail, hoping that he will betray the emperor! If they don't agree, they will attack his three wives next!"

Ye Ruhui was shocked and sat up suddenly: "Who are they you are talking about?"

Lin Yun said to himself: "The Queen Mother and the Emperor are already at odds with each other! Now it's time to break up in person! And the son-in-law is already a very human minister, and he can't hide even if he wants to! Therefore, we can only take the initiative to confront him. Yes! I hope dad can understand!”

In his impression, this father-in-law was very stubborn, and his foolish loyalty to the court made Lin Yun disagree. But after all, the old man was old, and he had no way to persuade him, let alone change.

But in fact, the last time Lin Yun was in danger at Longxiaguan, Ye Ruhui had already realized that his second son-in-law might be involved in a political struggle.

He repeatedly tried to persuade Lin Yun to quit, even if he did not become an official, he would not participate in party struggles.

Throughout the ages, party struggles have never ended well. In the end, both sides suffer losses, and those who can win will also pay a heavy price.

But this time his political opponents actually attacked him, which made Ye Ruhui, who had always wanted to be strong, deeply resented it. He didn't want to cause trouble to others, and he didn't like others to cause trouble for himself.

Ye Ruhui suddenly realized, and suddenly said: "That old man Meng Yuan is still recovering from his injuries, but the official minister has always been vacant. Didn't you kid mention this to the emperor?"

Lin Yun was stunned for a moment, instantly heard the implication, and subconsciously looked at the old man.

"Dad, don't you want to..."

There was a trace of annoyance in Ye Ruhui's eyes, and he whispered: "I have never thought about getting promoted and getting rich in my life, and I regard power as dirt! But since the enemy has bullied me, I naturally can't give up!"

"So, if the second uncle can speak to the emperor, can I be allowed to sit in the position of Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs..."

Lin Yun looked at the old man in bewilderment, and said with a wry smile: "Dad, are you talking nonsense because the poison in your body has not been drained out?"

He never expected that this stubborn old man would wake up one day.

Ye Ruhui's old face turned red, feeling embarrassed and at a loss.

Since the last time his second daughter came to ask for help but was rejected by him, he has had nightmares from time to time in the past few months, dreaming that his whole family was being killed.

He thought it was just a dream, but this time he was poisoned and in danger, and the creed he had adhered to his whole life was completely shattered.

He has been honest all his life, but he still cannot escape the end of persecution. Although it is caused by this second son-in-law, Ye Ruhui is the head of the family after all, and he has some responsibilities that he must face.

Whenever he thought of his second daughter's reproachful and slightly resentful eyes, he couldn't sleep at night.

And over the years, he has occasionally questioned himself.

It wasn't until the second son-in-law was born, and he went through many obstacles all the way, from a small person to the most powerful minister in the Daduan Dynasty, that Ye Ruhui suddenly woke up.

If you want to realize your political ideals, you must have power, otherwise, everything is empty talk.

Simply relying on example and foolish loyalty to influence the world is undoubtedly a fool's errand.

He had never wanted power so badly.

"I am more awake now than ever! Just tell me if you can help me? If there is any difficulty, I will go to the emperor in person to discuss it someday!"

Lin Yun was overjoyed. This father-in-law's sudden change was really great news for him.

In terms of qualifications, Ye Ruhui is indeed qualified, and when the emperor is hiring people, he will not miss this old man who is loyal to the emperor.

"Okay! As my father said, my son-in-law will definitely find a way to make you get what you want! I'll take my leave now!"

Ye Ruhui watched her leave and finally showed a relieved smile.
