Yan Yan Yugui

Chapter 84
"The key is to find out their purpose of smuggling saltpeter into the city." Lin Yanyan said.

"At the beginning of next month is the Empress Dowager's [-]th birthday. At that time, my father will visit Tianning Temple, a royal temple, to pray for the Empress Dowager. So now Tianning Temple and some roads along the way are being renovated. I think Beidi people are likely to come here for this. Saltpeter is the main material for making gunpowder, so much saltpeter is enough to overturn Tianning Temple, the Ministry of Industry is responsible for this renovation, I have ordered people to sneak into the investigation, but there is no result yet."

"If the Beidi people are really plotting this matter, there must be their internal support in the imperial court." Lin Yanyan's heart was heavy.

A strong enemy is not to be feared, what is feared is that one's own people are not of one mind.

"Therefore, we must find out the internal response and where the saltpeter is buried before the Queen Mother's birthday."

Lu Zhaonan said with emotion: "Time is running out, it is difficult to make Beidi a one-size-fits-all and then find out the people who should be in charge!"

Lin Yanyan pondered and said: "No matter how difficult it is, we must investigate. The two of you are responsible for investigating Beidi's secret work and internal response, and leave the place where the saltpeter is buried to me."

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

She promised that Uncle Hu would go to the clinic to help today, but who would have thought that Mrs. Qin would kill her, and after so long a delay, Uncle Hu might be unhappy.

In the imperial study room, after listening to Cao Quan's report, the emperor was furious: "Is Jin's government going to rebel?"

Gong'e, the eunuch in the first hall, couldn't help but her liver trembled, her head drooped even lower.

Cao Quan has his eyes on the nose and the heart, and he is only responsible for reporting the truth. As for how the emperor judges, he is not a slave who can comment.

"The Duke of Jin's disrespect to the emperor's order is already disrespectful. He dared to use guards to attack the courtiers' homes in the middle of the capital to vent their personal anger. He provoked the anger of the sky and the people. He was so rampant. He regarded the world as his surname." Zhu's?"

"Cao Quan, let Jin Guogong and Shenzhi Zhengshi come and see Gu."

"Yes!"

"Let Lin Shilang go back to appease his family."

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

When Cao Quan came out of the imperial study, he saw the Duke of Jin, Zhu Guangqi and Lin Shilang kneeling there.

Duke Jin and his eldest son Zhu Guangqi turned pale, probably because they heard the emperor's roar.

After all, no one can afford to put the hat of rebellion on anyone's head.

"Lord Lin, the emperor ordered you to go back to the mansion to appease the family."

Lin Zhongkun bowed deeply with his head on the ground: "I thank the emperor for his compassion."

Lin Zhongkun got up three times and was about to leave when Zhu Guangqi stopped him.

"Master Lin, you are stupid and reckless. I just heard about it and I feel deeply guilty. I would like to ask Mr. Lin to convey my apology to the old lady. Later, I will come to apologize in person." , one grade higher than the right servant of the third-rank etiquette department. In the past, Lin Zhongkun had to bow his head and ears when he saw him. Only by obtaining the understanding of the Lin family can the crime be reduced.

Seeing Zhu Guangqi's humility, Lin Zhongkun was a little flattered, and hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "It's all a misunderstanding, just explain it clearly."

Seeing this, Cao Quan couldn't help feeling a little contempt for Lin Zhongkun.

Lin Zhongkun is known as the representative of Qingliu in the court, but he doesn't have the character of a civil servant at all. He is not as bloody and courageous as his eldest niece, the county magistrate Kangping.

Cao Quan couldn't help thinking, if Marquis Ding'an was still there, Zhu Guangqi would probably be beaten into a pig's head at this moment!
When Lin Yanyan arrived at the Huimin Medical Center, she first went to Hu Guangzhi to apologize: "Doctor Hu, something happened to the student's family, and he was late. The student started working right away."

Hu Guangzhi had a stinky face: "I don't want to leave until the patient is dealt with."

"Yes, the student is guaranteed to complete the task."

"Choose a good day for yourself and formally become a teacher. I'm very busy and don't have time to do these tricks."

"Huh?" Lin Yanyan thought she had misheard.

"Ah what? Get out if you don't want to be a teacher." Hu Guangzhi said angrily.

Only then did Lin Yanyan feel relieved, and said with a smile: "Yes, the students will look through the almanac and choose an auspicious day when they return home."

I thought today was an unlucky day, but I didn't expect it to be an auspicious day. Uncle Hu finally agreed to accept her as his apprentice, which is gratifying.

Lin Yanyan was full of joy and enthusiasm, and spent less than two hours seeing all the patients, thinking about family affairs, so she had the cheek to ask Uncle Hu for leave.

"Since everything is done, get out, remember to come early tomorrow." Although Hu Guangzhi has a bad temper and is difficult to get close to, since he decided to take Zhen Ri'an as his apprentice, he treats Zhen Ri'an as his own. Ask what happened to Zhen Ri'an's house.It's just that Zhen Ri'an didn't say anything, and he couldn't ask. Even if he knew, he might not be able to help.

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

Lin Yanyan changed her clothes and rushed to the flower hall, where she met Mrs. Zhou.

Mrs. Zhou pulled Lin Yanyan aside to speak.

"Yanyan, I'm about to die of anger. The compensation listed earlier, your second uncle said that it's better to settle the enemy than to end it. The Zhu family's willingness to come to the door to apologize shows the sincerity of the heart, and the compensation is irrelevant."

Lin Yanyan was furious, and she took the trouble to arrange this event, just to clean up the Zhu family, make the Zhu family lose face and bleed, and let everyone know that even if Ding'anhou's mansion is gone, no one can bully anyone who wants to be bullied.

Second Uncle is too spineless, if Second Uncle acts like this, Ding'an Hou Mansion will be looked down upon.

"Third Aunt, where's the account book?"

"Here it is." Zhou took out a booklet from his sleeve pocket.

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

Zhou Shi hesitated for a moment and followed, this matter cannot be left to Yan Yan alone.

In the flower hall, Lin Zhongkun and Zhu Guangqi had a friendly conversation, as if the unhappiness that happened before had nothing to do with them, it was a matter of other people's family.

Standing at the door, Lin Yanyan took a deep breath, raised her smiling face, and walked in with a smile.

"My niece has met my second and third uncles."

"Yanyan, come and meet your Uncle Zhu." Lin Zhongkun said softly.

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

Zhu Guangqi has already learned from Qin's mouth that Lin Yanyan is a sharp-tongued girl who is extremely difficult to deal with.

"The last time I saw Yan Yan was at Boyan's funeral, three years have passed in a flash, and Yan Yan has grown into a big girl." Zhu Guangqi sighed with emotion, but his heart was vigilant.

"Yanyan still remembers that when his father was alive, he would often chat with Uncle Zhu about wine, and he and Uncle Zhu were very close friends. Because of this, the two families made a marriage agreement. Father would never have imagined that after he left, the marriage that was agreed upon would be in vain. Today, Aunt Zhu He also led soldiers and almost slaughtered the Hou's mansion, hey...it's really true that people walk away from tea, things are different..." Lin Yanyan sighed, feeling endlessly disappointed.

The corners of Zhu Guangqi's mouth twitched, this Lin Yanyan really wasn't a good quarrel, and he still insisted on the matter of the morning.
