Marrying Gold and Jade

The young eunuch was from the Qianqing Palace. Li Quan saw that he was finally able to interrupt the two people's reminiscing about the past, so he stepped forward.

Lin Yu asked: "Didn't you just come out from His Majesty's place?"

The young eunuch said, "Your Majesty is discussing matters with Grand Tutor Shen and His Highness the Seventh Prince. I think Lord Lin is also involved."

"Oh, His Majesty also said that if Miss Lin is here, we can go together."

Lin Yu went to see Li Quan again.

Li Quan also said: "Then please ask Miss Lin to move over. Then, I will prepare lunch for you two."

Lin Yu nodded.

But this time of coming back always made her feel unusual.

I had no intention of going in to listen to government affairs, but when I walked outside the main hall of the Qianqing Palace, I suddenly heard a familiar male voice coming from inside.

"I will fulfill my mission and thoroughly investigate this case to identify Lu's accomplices!"

The group paused, Lin Yu looked up and exchanged glances with the person next to him.

There was confusion in Lin Ji's eyes. The one who spoke was a prince, not the crown prince, not the fifth prince. He had never heard of that before.

Lin Yu was surprised.

Because this voice accompanied her every day, she would talk to him for a long time before going to bed every day.

"Is it... His Majesty the Seventh Prince?" Lin Ji quickly guessed it.

Before Lin Yu could respond, Li Quan came out and said, "Master Lin, please come in."

As a result, just as Lin Ji stepped forward, the palace door closed and another woman came hurriedly behind him.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! Your son requests to see Your Majesty!"

It was the Crown Princess. She didn’t make it in time, so she knelt down at the entrance of the palace.

Li Quan hurried forward to deal with it, "Crown Princess, His Majesty is discussing official business, what are you doing?"

"Eunuch Li, please go in and tell His Majesty to see me."

"I have already said that His Majesty is discussing official business."

"Then please help me spread a message, saying that my father is truly innocent, and it was his subordinates who were corrupt and embezzled a sum of military pay without telling my father. Although my father failed to notice, it was an unintentional mistake!"

Having said this, Li Quan's expression suddenly turned cold. The wrinkled face of an old eunuch in his sixties inevitably looked scary.

He said coldly to the tearful Crown Princess: "How would you know what His Majesty is discussing today?"

Even though it had nothing to do with him, Lin Yu felt a chill on the back of his neck when he heard it.

Yes, even though he had always been with Lin Ji and the others, he only vaguely heard the word "Lu" when he just walked out of the hall.

The Crown Princess's arrival was really too "timely".

Outside the palace gate, two women were kneeling and standing, with a gap between them. Lin Yu waited quietly for Lin Ji to come out, just to have a meal with him.

Lin Yu didn't know what was waiting for the Crown Princess.

Because of the previous things, she couldn't like her, let alone pity her. But when she heard her kneeling not far from him, begging Emperor Xianzhen to see her, Lin Yu still felt a little uncomfortable and wanted to go to another place to wait for someone.

But perhaps having heard about Lin Yu's movements, Xu Jinxuan also quickly arrived outside the Qianqing Palace.

There are so many people here, but the prince is the only one missing.

But soon Lin Yu also understood. The people inside did not discuss the matter for too long. When Emperor Xianzhen appeared, he only told her: "The crown prince told me that he intends to depose you."

"I'm sure."

The person who was kneeling upright suddenly collapsed and sat on the ground with his body tilted.

"Someone, send Lu out of the palace."

In a moment, Lin Yu didn't even move from where he was standing, but the person next to him changed from "Crown Princess" to "Lu".

She was greatly disappointed, and suddenly she shouted almost madly: "Your Majesty, have you forgotten? When the Queen Mother was in power and the Grand Tutor was in control of the government, it was my father who helped you cross the single-plank bridge when you were young!"

"Now that the cunning rabbit is dead, the running dog is cooked. The Heavenly Family is truly ruthless! The Heavenly Family is ruthless!"

No one could allow her to make such a noise outside the Qianqing Palace. Li Quan ordered two young eunuchs to grab her arms and drag her out. Her clothes were disheveled and she no longer looked as decent as before.

Lin Yu's eyes were fixed on her, watching her go away, unable to come back to his senses for a long time.

Until Lin Ji's voice sounded beside him: "Are you okay?"

Lin Yu then realized that he had been holding his breath for a long time. He took a deep breath and said to the others, "Brother, can you tell His Majesty to take me out of the palace today?"

After seeing the scene just now, she always felt depressed.

Lin Ji didn't say much. He just said "OK" and went to Li Quan to talk about leaving the palace.

The emperor was obviously not paying attention to these trivial matters at the moment. After a little thought, Li Quan issued a pass to leave the palace and instructed him to come back before the palace gates were locked at You time.

As the carriage drove out of Donghua Gate, Lin Yu suddenly thought of the area outside the parade ground. The Crown Princess had once told her that going out of Donghua Gate would lead to the Crown Prince's Eastern Palace.

"Ayu pity her?"

She looked thoughtful all the way.

The girl shook her head slightly and lowered the brocade curtain on the car window, covering the scene on the palace road.

“I just think it’s too fast.”

So fast that before she can react, a person's situation can change drastically.

Lin Ji said, "The ice is three feet thick, and it didn't freeze overnight. The Lu family has been prosperous for decades, and it didn't happen overnight that the rotten cotton started to grow."

In this sense, what you owe to others must be repaid.

Lin Yu nodded, not wanting to worry too much about others, and only asked: "Brother, are you going to investigate the Lu family's case this time?"

"Yes," Lin Ji did not hide anything from her, "Your Highness the Seventh Prince will assist the three judicial departments, and I will be the Supervisory Censor to assist you. As for matters in the capital, those officials in the capital have more connections. I will only investigate the land properties of the Lu family in Songjiang and Suzhou."

After explaining all this, he immediately thought of what he had not yet made clear to Lin Yu.

Taking advantage of the quietness in the carriage to talk, he continued to ask: "Ayu, what do you think, I was distancing myself from you in the past?"

This is something that Lin Yu can talk about.

"When I went to Qihe Hall, you never played with me. You didn't even leave the study. It was good enough for you to just glance at me through the window."

Lin Ji thought for a moment and then explained, "The imperial examinations are very busy. I started later than others, and I also read a lot of essays by past Jinshi candidates, so I have little free time."

Then he added: "But I have prepared your favorite snacks in the room. If you come over, there will be someone to accompany you."

Lin Yu sneered, "My dear brother, do you think I went to Qihe Hall just to get your snacks and play with the people in your courtyard?"

Lin Ji's eyes paused and he stared at her. Suddenly, the only sound in the carriage was the "zhiya" sound of the carriage moving.

"Then, what is Ayu for?"

I asked even though I knew the answer.

Lin Yu was embarrassed by his question. When he went to look for him when he was young, he naturally felt fond of him as an elder brother or a playmate at home.

But now she has grown up, and the relationship between her and Lin Ji is no longer just a pure brother-sister relationship. If she talks about it at this time, that "love" will inevitably seem to have deteriorated.

Lin Yu just said: "Brother, don't you know?"

Lin Ji said: "I don't know."
