Chapter 712 Three-in-one(1/2)

The concubine's son Gaomen 96

The more chaotic it is, the more we need to stay steadily. Without Xuanzhao in the palace, the two of them did not go to the palace. That day, just after breakfast, Wencai brought a post, "Your Highness, look at this post."

Lin Yutong took it strangely and asked before she opened it: "I've sent this over, what's so special about this person?"

"He said he was the old friend of you and the prince consort." Wencai glanced at the Fourth Master and said.

An old friend?

Lin Yutong couldn't think of any old friend who had him and the Fourth Master, so she opened the post, glanced at it, and handed it to the Fourth Master: "This person is called Zhao Xun... Do you have any impression?"

The Fourth Master responded: "Tanhua from Jinke seems to be called Zhao Xun." As he said that, he looked at Wencai, as if he was asking for a certificate.

Wencai nodded, probably: "I just don't know if this person is Tanhualang?"

Tanhualang? An old friend?

Sanxi suddenly said 'ah': "Do you still remember the scholar I helped in Ci'en Temple at that time? It seems that he was calling Zhao Xun."

After saying this, Lin Yu really remembered that such a person came, "I really didn't expect that this person is really capable. He actually passed the top three. It's rare! It's rare!" But it's been half a year since the imperial examination, and he must have worked in the Hanlin Academy. He didn't come here before, so why did he come here now?

The Fourth Master waved his hand: "Please go to the flower hall to sit."

It turned out that this is such a connection. Wencai responded quickly and went out to entertain him. This person is also considered a newcomer.

When Lin Yutong and the Fourth Master arrived at the flower hall, they saw a young man in green cloth robe standing in the hall but not sitting. The Fourth Master was a little satisfied with the humility and caution of this person. After seeing the favor, the Fourth Master asked him to sit down, and Lin Yutong went to look at him. He was much more energetic than when he saw him before.

"I should have come to visit you for a long time." Zhao Xun sat on the chair and slightly put the edge of the chair. "It was just that the door outside the mansion was crowded. I guess that your highness was busy and did not dare to come to disturb you rashly." A Tanhua, a small official from the seventh rank in the Hanlin Academy. If it weren't for the previous origin, I would probably not have been able to enter the Princess' Mansion.

Lin Yutong nodded understandingly: "How do you feel when working in Hanlin Academy now?"

Zhao Xun knew that this was indirectly asking himself if he had encountered any trouble. He felt a little grateful and quickly said, "I am here this time, but I dare not for my own private affairs. It is really a big thing, and I dare not not tell Your Highness."

Lin Yutong and the Fourth Master looked at each other and said, "But it's okay to say it. Since you are an old friend, just treat it as a friend chatting and don't have any worries."

Zhao Xun then whispered: "Do you still remember Li Shizhu?"

Even if he doesn't remember, he can tell it from his mouth, obviously he knows it, and he knows it. Lin Yutong immediately remembered someone in his mind, "But the scholar who framed you at that time?"

"Your Highness has a good memory." Zhao Xun nodded, "It's this person."

"What's wrong with him?" Lin Yutong asked, "It shouldn't be that I didn't pass the exam."

"Yes!" Zhao Xun's expression became strange, "He did not pass the exam, but he had been stranded in the capital and never returned home." Others did not return home because they wanted to participate in the encore next year, but because he had a rank for Princess Yunyin. As long as Princess Yunyin was in one day, even if he passed the exam by chance, he would be like that in his life, and he would not have thought about his career. If he followed the general logic, he would disappear from the capital as soon as possible, and hoped that the princess would forget this little person as soon as possible. It would be smart to not influence the entire family because of him. Therefore, it was very puzzled that he was stranded in the capital.

Lin Yutong heard some meaning. Because of Li Shizhu's abnormality, he was told to pay attention to this person.

When Zhao Xun saw the expressions on Lin Yutong and the Fourth Master's faces, he knew that they did not regard themselves as a petty person. He really didn't bother to stare at Li Shizhu, but there was never a shortage of people in this world who were involved in the insult and climbed up. He could get the news that a failed candidate came to report, "...It is said that Li Shizhu is joining the candidate who is stranded in the capital and is preparing to hit the palace gate. The minister has no ability to verify this matter, but no matter whether the news is true or not, I have to tell Your Highness first."

It is no trivial for scholars to hit the palace gate. Because the court has always had the rule of "common men do not talk about politics", scholars who want to advise the court can only hit the palace gate by death. This tragic way usually only occurs when there are foolish monarchs and treacherous ministers in the state. Scholars use this method to sacrifice their lives for justice and sound the alarm bell for the court.

But now? Are there any foolish monarchs in the court? Or are there treacherous ministers?

None! There is only one unacceptable empress.

Li Shizhu definitely has no noble sentiment. His only purpose is that as long as he pulls down the emperor, he will be nothing. If he falls, he, the person who cuts off his career because of himself, can get up again.

The truth is such a simple truth.

Zhao Xun had apologetic expression on his face: "If it weren't for the humble minister, your highness wouldn't have been missed by a villain. The incident this time was all caused by the minister. Any useful place for the minister will never refuse."

The Fourth Master then answered: "If you get the news, it proves that there are probably a lot of people he contacts. In this way... you visit a few people who are prestigious in the examination and ask them to control everyone's emotions. Try to avoid bloody conflicts..."

Before he could finish his words, footsteps sounded outside. Guiwu rushed in, "Master, Your Highness, it's not good! Hundreds of scholars gathered at the gate of the palace, and something was going to happen."

Zhao Xun's expression changed: "Hurry up or come late! It's all the fault of Weichen. Weichen will go here..."

Lin Yutong waved her hand: "You should do whatever you want when you go back, this is no longer something you can get involved in."

Guiwu answered: "When I came back, I said that half of the people were students of the Imperial College."

The students of the Imperial College are basically from official families. There are also a few who spend money to donate. Of course, it is impossible to do so if there is only money but no way. Therefore, there is a family behind those who can enter the Imperial College. Therefore, this matter seems particularly sensitive.

The Fourth Master made a quick decision: "I'll go and send news to Wen Yunshan immediately." The soldiers who should be transferred must be transferred immediately. Beware that the situation in the capital is uncontrollable. "You should enter the palace first, be careful. I will see a few more people, and then enter the palace to meet you."

Lin Yutong glanced at the Fourth Master and saw that he looked extremely serious, and knew that this was not good today. She responded and turned around to instruct Wencai and Zhao Xun: "If you can stop the disciples who continue to go to the palace gate, it will be considered a great achievement."

The two of them won a row and agreed. Lin Yutong changed into soft armor and went straight to the palace.

At the gate of the palace, hundreds of scholars were kneeling quietly, either juren or students of the Imperial College. Without looking at the forces involved behind them, they could not deal with their own fame and fortune alone.

Lin Changgen issued a strict order to the Imperial Guard: "As long as you don't get close to the palace gate, you don't have to worry about them. No conflicts are allowed, and no provocation is allowed! Today, if these people are injured, our Imperial Guard will have to pay ten. Remember them all and pass them on." As he said that, he hurried into the palace and had to report it first.

Gan had already received the news at this time, and the bad news immediately made her feel an unprecedented sense of crisis. The timing of these things was so coincidental! It would be impossible if no one manipulated it.

Wu Heng was destroyed, and the other generals in the army must have thought it was their revenge on their assassination of the censor. So, what will they do next?

Before there was time to deal with it, someone bumped into the palace gate.

The civil officials and military generals worked together, and the involvement in this... made her think a lot in an instant.

Lai Fu lowered his head and waited for Gan's order. A voice came from outside, saying that Lin Changgen had arrived.

Gan nodded to Lai Fu, and Lai Fu turned around and went out and personally welcomed Lin Changgen in.

Lin Changgen had a little urgency on his face, but when he came in, he saw that Gan was having breakfast slowly. When he saw him in, he smiled: "Have you eaten? Do you want to eat something with me? I remember you like to eat jade rolls, and it happened to be there today. Come and go together..."

Even if the sky falls, you have to stay calm. No one can be confused, and no one can panic.

Seeing that Gan's bowl was holding a few sweet people, Lin Changgen took a deep breath and stood over: "Rou... Your Majesty, something is going on outside."

"The sky cannot fall!" Gan signaled Lin Changgen to sit down, "Eat first."

Lin Changgen looked at Gan again, then sat opposite her and whispered: "Why call Eryatou...be prepared for any trouble."

Gan sighed and murmured: "It's important that you father and daughter are the most reliable ones."

Lin Changgen glanced at Madam He who was on the side and hurriedly said, "Madam, please invite the second... His Highness the Princess to the palace."

Seeing that Gan did not stop him, Madam He nodded to Lin Changgen and hurriedly retreated.

Gan put down the bowl and glanced at Lai Fu, "You go outside and guard, and don't let anyone get close."

Lai Fu concealed the strange color in his eyes, glanced at the two of them again before retreating.

Gan put down the bowl and grabbed Lin Changgen's hand: "I want you to help me with something..."

Lin Changgen was stunned, looking at the jade-like hand covering his hand, the corner of his mouth moved, and a wry smiled: "You don't have to do this, I will help you what you should do. This is what I owe you."

Gan lowered his eyelids, but his hand did not take it back: "When I first got married, I also thought about living a good life with you. You said you would be nice to me, and I believed you. At that time, I thought, maybe we can have more children and have children. My son must teach him to learn literature and martial arts, and his daughter will do whatever she likes. If we can't find someone to be assured, we will ask our daughter to have son-in-law and keep it under our noses forever. At that time, I never thought about how many days there would be, really! I just wanted to take care of my husband and children, and accompany you for the rest of my life..." As she said, tears instantly slid down her face. This was a long-standing past that I never thought about.

Lin Changgen only felt his heart trembling with her tears. He rubbed his feet and stood up, "Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

Gan grabbed Lin Changgen's hand and did not throw it away: "This matter will make you embarrassed, but don't worry, I have a sense of responsibility."

Lin Changgen nodded: "I know, I know what kind of person you are."

Only then did Gan come to Lin Changgen's ear and whisper.

Lin Changgen's face turned pale in an instant: "...she...will she...have to do this?"

Gan didn't say anything, but his eyes were firm: "Don't worry, I won't harm anyone's life."

Lin Changgen shook his body and his eyes closed, feeling his hands and feet were numb, as if it had been a hundred years before he could find his voice: "You said that it would not harm... your life."

Gan looked at Lin Changgen's eyes: "You didn't believe me back then, but you didn't believe me now?"

"I... believe!" Lin Changgen showed a smile that was even worse than crying, "I believe you!" Then he glanced at Gan, pulled his hand out of her hand, looked at Gan deeply, and then left with great strides.

Gan looked at Lin Changgen's back and stood there for a long time without coming back to his senses.

Lin Yutong entered the palace and saw Lin Changgen coming out of the imperial study room from a distance, but his face was not good-looking. She didn't think much about it. There were so many people kneeling outside the palace, so it would be strange if his face was good. She greeted her and saluted: "Father."

Lin Changgen was obviously startled. It was obvious that he had not seen Lin Yutong approaching just now. When he came back to his senses, he saw that it was her, and his expression obviously eased, "You are here. Come in quickly. Your mother is waiting for you."

Lin Yutong responded, thinking about talking about things outside the palace, but seeing that he had left in a hurry. I thought that Gan had something to tell him to do it. She stopped talking.

Madam He reminded: "Girl, the master is still waiting."

Lin Yutong came to her senses and raised her foot to the imperial study room. But when she saw Lai Fu standing outside, she immediately understood that she was afraid that Gan and Lin Changgen would have been talking alone inside just now. Her eyes flashed. When she went in, she saw Gan still having dinner.

"Come?" Gan looked up at Lin Yutong and explained: "I didn't fall asleep last night. I only stared at it for a while at dawn. I got up late and I'm just having dinner now."

No matter how much you talk about the palace gate, I don’t mention it at all.

"There's a lot of things recently, and I guess you can't sleep anymore." Lin Yutong sat over, "You can eat quickly and eat more, I'm afraid that the ministers should all enter the palace."

"What do you think?" Gan put down the bowl, held the jujube cake in his hand, and stuffed it into his mouth bit by bit.

Lin Yutong shook her head. She really didn't know what to do next. "Now, it's not what we want to do? But what those court officials want to do? The scholars kneeling outside are either their children or their students, and the relationship inside is mixed. If these scholars get together and make such a big deal, no one notices it in advance, then unless they are all deaf and blind. We are hiding them strictly, this is not something that one or two can do." And the so-called Li Shizhu is probably the scapegoat introduced by these people.

The chill in Gan's eyes became increasingly strong, "When will the scholars rebelled? They have never been afraid of them." As he said that, he looked at Lin Yutong, "Where has the prince consort?"

A hint of astonishment flashed across Lin Yutong's eyes. These two topics asked one after another. How many meanings do they mean? "Do you doubt the prince-consort?"

"It's not that." Gan chuckled, "You said, in the heart of the prince-consort, are you important or is his father and brother important?"

There is no comparison at all. In this world, no one is as important to the Fourth Master.

But I firmly believe in this, but others don’t believe it!

Lin Yutong looked at Gan and did not answer the question, but asked: "Do you doubt Kim Sung-an?"

"There is also Jin Chengquan." Gan sneered, "I didn't order the Wu Heng family to be killed. I sent Jin Chengquan out of the capital because I knew that Wu Heng was different from the other people. I hope to convince him. Let's start a good start from him. Jin Chengquan was with the will of his decree, and he was appointed as a marquis of Wu Heng, and he was surrendered for three generations. Such conditions are enough to touch Wu Heng's heart. But when the news came back, Wu Heng's whole family was destroyed. You should say this is interesting."
