Chapter 557 Dumb Maid (4)
Jin San smiled and raised his hair in a charming way: "Actually, this money is not for nothing. In fact, I have something to ask for help from Butler Lin."
"What's the matter?" Butler Lin asked curiously. Jin San usually had nothing to ask him for help.
"That's right. I fell in love with the young master in the General's Mansion and planned to write a love poem and quietly stuff it to his bed at night. But I don't know how to write this love poem. Since Butler Lin was a Tanhualang at the beginning, his literary talent must be very good, so I'll do it for you."
"Get out!" Butler Lin walked away with a dark face. Along the way, he could still hear his murmuring voice: "If you don't study well, what kind of love poems should you write in the girl's house.... What kind of ethics will it be when you stuff it under the bed!"
After Butler Lin left, Jin San shrugged. Jin Si jumped off the eaves of the back room and walked to Jin San. Looking at Butler Lin's figure leaving, he sighed and said, "He has worked hard too."
No matter how handsome his appearance is, it cannot hide his fatigue. In the past few days, Butler Lin lobbies frantically. On the one hand, it is indeed for the Thirteenth Prince to build momentum, but more importantly, put pressure on Xuan Li. Just like fighting, he will fight in one go, and then decline, and exhaust it. To make people like Xuan Li who are accustomed to endure, it requires full ability. Butler Lin lobbies and constantly persuades civil servants, which will eventually make Xuan Li feel uneasy. Under such uneasiness, he will only implement his plan in advance. In this way, Butler Lin's wish is fulfilled.
"I hope his hard work is not in vain." Jin Si said.
"I hope," Jin San put away his laughter: "I just hope that I can live up to the young lady's sacrifice and plan."
Three days later, most of the court officials suddenly wrote a letter to ask Xuan Li for his order, asking Xuan Li to ascend the throne immediately. This time the movement was very big, and Xuan Li decided to take action. The court officials who were used to seeing the depth and had been working for Xuan Li privately stood up. Everyone was shocked to realize that the power of the eighth prince was so wide, which made people feel a little chill. Among them, there were all veterans, civil and military officers, and those who held high power. Compared to that, those who supported Xuan Pei seemed to be too weak.
Don’t blame Xuan Pei for not many supporters. Xuan Li has been planning for this matter for many years. Many years ago, he began to secretly bribe the court officials for the arrival of this day. When Xuan Pei was a useless prince, Xuan Li had an extremely outstanding reputation among the people in the court. The lean camel was bigger than a horse, not to mention that he was used to hiding his strength.
Under such strong pressure, Empress Dowager Yide could not support it. The memorials of those people were very clear. Since ancient times, if it were not for the emperor's personal identification, they would have been established as elders but not young people. During the emperor's reign, he also attached great importance to Xuan Li. Now Xuan Pei is still young, and no matter what, he is not the candidate to take on a great task. Moreover, Xuan Pei is still carrying a suspicion of killing his father on his back.
In the Golden Palace, the ministers were talking endlessly, but if you looked closely, you could see that most of the people who spoke were Xuan Li. Even if the people of Xuan Pei were interested in arguing for a few words, they could not resist Xuan Li's many people.
Xuan Li stood quietly in place, his face still had a smile as warm as before, making people feel as warm as the spring breeze blowing on his face, as if he turned a deaf ear to these quarrels. There was a faint confidence in it, as if he should sit in the world at the next moment. In fact, this should be the case.
Xuan Pei was still under house arrest, so naturally he could not let it go. Seeing this, Lord Gu at the General's Mansion almost frowned and could wrinkle out of water. Because of Jiang Ruan, Gu Yi was very focused on supporting the Thirteenth Prince Xuan Pei. His reason was also very simple, and he said to Lord Gu: "Ms. Jiang is so smart. Look at how she has never suffered a loss from people since then. It is absolutely right to believe her!" Lord Gu was so angry that he only beat him hard, but when he turned around, he expressed his loyalty to Xuan Pei. It was not that he believed Gu Yi's words, but since Jiang Ruan was standing on Xuan Pei's side, the Jinying Mansion naturally stood on Xuan Pei's side. Lord Gu never dared to underestimate the power of the Jinying Mansion. This couple is not a good deal, so Lord Gu is more optimistic about them.
Who knew that now that this happened, Jiang Ruan was in danger of life and death, Xiao Shao was determined to find his wife, Xuan Pei was under house arrest, and at this time Xuan Li was about to be pushed to the top, and the situation was really bad. Lord Gu couldn't help but worry. Could it be that he had taken the wrong step again?
Empress Dowager Yide sat in a high position, and her long armor unconsciously crossed her temples. Who can turn around under such a general trend? No matter how it is, she cannot infringe on public anger. The power of the court officials should never be underestimated. Her eyes glanced over Lin Wei standing in the hall. Since this man had made up his mind to plan a future here, why was he still indifferent at this time?
Lin Wei smiled with a smile on his lips, as if nothing else around him had to do with him, and he looked a little calm. However, in the eyes of Xuan Li people, he just felt that he was pretending to be mysterious and pretending to behave.
At this moment, only a clear voice came from outside the hall: "Let's wait!"
Everyone turned around and saw a young man wearing a black-colored long robe walking slowly, his eyes firm and with a different spirit than usual, he slowly walked into the hall.
This person is no one else, he is Liu Min, the top scholar in the dynasty.
Liu Min's position in the court is very strange. He said he is of high status and power, but he just became the prince's tutor and had no real power. But if he said he has no real power, he is respected and has gained the trust of the emperor, he is an absolute celebrity in front of the emperor. If he offended him, he will not get any benefits.
Seeing him suddenly speak out, everyone was a little confused. They knew that Liu Min was later given to the thirteenth prince Xuan Pei by the emperor, and probably had some teacher-student friendship with Xuan Pei, but could a Taifu scholar still turn around the current situation? Not to mention that it is a foolish dream, even the dream makes people feel a little ridiculous.
Everyone's eyes were full of mockery, but Xuan Li's expression gradually became solemn.
Liu Min's clothes today are different. He has always liked to wear light-colored clothes, and he looks like a scholar's elegance. Today, he is wearing dark dark colors. I don't know if it is the reason for the clothes, which will reflect a bit of coldness. It seems that the literati's hand is finally holding a book, but a sharp blade, while he is facing the Shura battlefield, and there is a faint murderous intent in his eyes.
What did he want to do? Xuan Li felt a keen sense of a difference. He suddenly turned his head to look at Lin Wei. Sure enough, the smile on the corner of Lin Wei's lips became deeper, and he almost grinned. The joy from the heart was definitely not something he could do. How could it be? Xuan Li felt that he had fallen into a trap, but he couldn't grasp it at all. At this time, he just wanted to stop Liu Min quickly.
