Quick Wear: Even big guys have to work hard

When the time limit for the second task expired, Mi Shishi still hadn't received news of Min Yu's return.

resignedly.

Let's continue with the missions!

Actually, it doesn't matter where you do the quests, right? At least you avoid crossing void realms and wasting merit points!

The location of this mission was also on an official road, where the original owner and his fellow disciples were on their way to the capital to take the imperial examination.

During the journey, the original owner suggested visiting a famous mountain, causing the senior brother to miss the opportunity for his loyal servant to tip him off and escape.

When they arrived in the capital, the senior brother was essentially walking into a trap, because his grandfather had been framed for treason and his whole family was about to be executed.

in fact.

They will be exonerated in three years, so my senior brother only needs to hide for three years and his academic achievements can be restored.

The original owner was filled with remorse. If he hadn't suggested changing paths, how could he have let his senior brother die?

Even though he traveled to many places.

It's all in vain!

Because they lacked connections and money, they couldn't even get a piece of clothing out of the house, let alone a person.

Although he passed the imperial examination and was granted an official position, he was depressed all his life and died young.

The original owner did want to be reborn.

He personally rescued his senior brother's family.

Unfortunately, the merits he had accumulated over many lifetimes were simply not enough to qualify him for rebirth.

They had no choice but to issue a commissioned task.

Don't be fooled by the fact that the Seven Spirit Masters' various spirit clones are constantly collecting reborn individuals and time travelers when completing tasks in different timelines.

People mistakenly believe that rebirth and time travel are easy. In principle, only those with great merit have the opportunity to be reborn or travel through time.

such as.

The missions of each time and space.

To become a mission envoy, one must be a person of great merit.

Those wild systems and wild reborn transmigrators are those who exploited spacetime loopholes or some kind of accident.

They are not recognized by the Way of Heaven.

Therefore, we should do good deeds and accumulate merit whenever we have the chance.

Yunmen Inn.

The waiter, holding a letter, knocked on a guest room door, and Mi Shishi opened the door.

"Scholar Mu, someone has delivered a message to you!"

Mi Shishi took the letter, gave him a few copper coins as a reward, and the waiter left happily.

"Junior brother, who delivered the letter to you?"

Lin Junzhi, the senior student in the same room, put down his book and asked.

"Oh, a letter from the master?"

Mi Shishi glanced at the signature.

The original owner's name was Mu Wenkui. He and Lin Junzhi were both disciples of the headmaster of Baihe Academy and were also successful candidates in the imperial examinations.

We're going to Beijing together to take the imperial examination this time.

Lin Junzhi's home is in Beijing.

After carefully reading the letter, Mi Shishi's expression suddenly changed drastically.

……

Two horses galloped out of the Yunmen Inn.

Half a day later.

Mi Shishi and Lin Junzhi encountered two fast horses, which were loyal servants and guards sent by the Lin family.

That letter from the dean was naturally a fake letter concocted by Mi Shishi. In her previous life, the dean received news of the Lin family's troubles but it was too late.

Lin Junzhi panicked completely after reading the letter! Under Mi Shishi's arrangement, he hurriedly rode to meet with the loyal servant of the Lin family.

"Fourth Young Master, the Master and Madam have instructed us to take you out to sea immediately. Please accept our condolences!"

Lin Da and Lin Er were guards of the Lin family.

They were all born into the Lin family, and their loyalty to the Lin family was beyond question.

"Lin Da, Lin Er, I... I can't just stand by and watch them die..."

Lin Junzhi's face was covered in tears.

"Senior brother, you're being foolish!"

Mi Shishi shouted.

"Uncle Lin and Aunt Lin hope that you can carry on the Lin family line. You can't let them down."

Lin Da and Lin Er's eyes were bloodshot.

They glanced at each other and nodded simultaneously.

The master said that if the fourth young master insisted on returning to the capital, they would have to knock him unconscious and take him out to sea.

"Senior brother, if you trust me, you go first, and I'll go to the capital to find a way to redeem your people, at least your nephews and nieces, how about that?"

Mi Shishi was able to save the Lin family.

But we shouldn't speak too definitively.

Otherwise, Lin Junzhi wouldn't have believed it.

Lin Da and Lin Er looked at Mi Shishi with despair in their eyes, clearly disbelieving.

Even though Madam Lin's family was a marquis's mansion, they couldn't exonerate the Lin family from their crimes, and they wouldn't even allow the redemption of their young children.

What did Scholar Mu use to redeem himself?

"Junior brother, I believe you!"

To abandon his family and flee for his life alone? Lin Junzhi felt his heart being torn apart, the pain suffocating him. His junior brother's words seemed to give him breath again, bringing him back to life.

Seeing the fourth young master's hopeful eyes.

Lin Da and Lin Er opened their mouths.

I can't say anything, but I can live well as long as there is hope. That's good.

"Master Lin, bring the silver notes!"

Lin Junzhi reached out, and Lin Da hurriedly took out a stack of silver notes and a contract from his pocket.

The Lin family has brought out all the assets they could, including approximately 50,000 taels of silver notes and dozens of land deeds for each branch of the family.

Lin Junzhi handed over the banknotes and land deeds.

He gave it all to Mi Shishi.

Speechless!

However, to put his mind at ease, Mi Shishi took it and, when they weren't looking, secretly put it back into Lin Da's arms.

After Lin Da realized this, he didn't tell the Fourth Young Master right away. He only told him after they were safe at sea.

"Senior brother, take care!"

"Junior brother, you've worked hard!"

The two brothers parted with heavy hearts, their horses galloping off in two different directions.

After arriving in Beijing.

Mi Shishi went to the Imperial College first.

This place is quite close to the palace; we're sending observation particles to an official who's entering the palace.

He transferred it to the Imperial Study.

The Lin family was framed by Zhang Xiang's faction; the two sides were enemies, which is understandable.

But the emperor should also know that the question is, why execute everyone in the Lin family so quickly?

Instead of waiting until autumn to execute him?

By collecting data on the entire palace, various government departments, and the residences and personnel of Zhang Xiang's core officials.

Only by analyzing the various intricate cause-and-effect relationships can the truth be revealed!

What a melodramatic palace intrigue drama! It turns out it even involves the inner palace and the scheming and power struggles among the concubines.

Consort Xian was the granddaughter of Prime Minister Zhang. She had conflicts with Consort Lin, who came from the Lin family, even before she entered the palace.

The two also fought fiercely in the palace.

Zhang Xiang's faction framed the Lin family for treason, and Consort Xian wanted to completely suppress Consort Lin.

Consort Xian became a divine assist.

She whispered in the emperor's ear, which is why he issued the decree; he didn't even have to wait until autumn to be executed!

Fortunately, there's only one step left before the case is closed. As long as evidence of Zhang Xiang's conspiracy is found, the Lin family will be safe and sound.

I want to investigate the case.

The system is the best at this!

When the three judicial departments held their final joint hearing.

Unexpectedly, most of the witnesses changed their stories! The three leaders in charge of the joint trial were all dumbfounded.

They were merely going through the motions; everything had already been arranged in the palace and the court. How could they not be afraid?

It's easy to imagine how the Emperor would react if he found out; he would be furious.

"Useless trash! Re-examine me, thoroughly from beginning to end!"

The emperor was certainly not that incompetent.

Previously, the evidence of the Lin family's treason was conclusive, and the Virtuous Consort had further fueled the flames.

The emperor was furious and ordered the three judicial departments to determine the case, intending to execute the Lin family directly.

The witness actually went back on his word?

Even if he were incompetent, he would know there was a big problem, considering the long-standing conflict between Consort Xian and Consort Lin.

He did this to balance the factions.

Happy to see it come to fruition.

But that doesn't mean he was willing to be fooled. If he were wrongly convicted of treason and accused of colluding with the enemy, the world would surely condemn him as a tyrant.

This angered him even more than the Lin family's treason, and he hadn't even waited for the three judicial departments to release their findings.

The emperor's secret guards obtained the evidence that Zhang Xiang's faction had framed the Lin family first.

When the emperor is angry, the court is thrown into turmoil.

Zhang Xiang was reprimanded, the virtuous concubine was confined to her quarters, and several core officials in this faction were dismissed and never to be reinstated, severely damaging the faction's vitality.

There was nothing that could be done about it; Zhang Xiang had already found a scapegoat from the beginning.

Based on this incident, it's impossible to directly bring down Prime Minister Zhang and Consort Xian.

But Mi Shishi had other evidence: the Lin family in her previous life had indeed been executed.

This revenge must be taken!

It was impossible for Zhang Xiang to escape unscathed.
