Although Lin Jinhong had made great contributions to detecting the serial case this time, Chu Nanzhi could not tell Lin Tingzhen the whole story in detail, and there was nothing he could do for him at the moment.
Watching Lin Tingzhen and his daughter walk away, two familiar figures appeared in their sight.
Looking closely, it was Nie Huaian and his wife Cui who were slowly led in.
"Teacher, Mistress."
Also afraid that something might happen to these two people, Chu Nanzhi rushed forward to greet them.
"Big Gardenia."
Nie Huaian staggered up to Chu Nanzhi and apologized with shame: "I have wronged you today."
"Don't say that, Mr. Nie."
Chu Nanzhi also stopped mentioning Ji Wanying, and instead said: "The real murderer of Erlang has been arrested and brought to justice. All the previous unsolved cases have been brought to light, so I can finally give everyone an explanation."
"The foreign woman who committed the crime, Chang Lao, has already ordered Yin Shaofu to have someone executed. As for Princess Wanying?"
His eyes paused slightly, and Nie Huai'an frowned and said, "The Empress Dowager will definitely deal with it strictly."
"Um."
Chu Nanzhi pretended to agree and nodded, then changed the subject again: "Is Mr. Chang's health in serious condition?"
After all, she was the granddaughter of the Empress Dowager, and she had so many complicated relationships and achievements from her predecessors. She felt like a mirror in her heart, and it was impossible to deal with the little princess.
Seeing that she did not dwell on the matter, Nie Huai'an felt both ashamed and relieved.
I thought it would take a lot of effort to make this ghostly girl happy, but I never thought that she would always surprise people like this.
Thinking of the spoiled little princess, Nie Huaian couldn't help but sigh deeply, looked at Chu Nanzhi with an extremely complicated expression and said with a smile: "Teacher Chang, it should be nothing serious. As a teacher, this is
Go back to your home with your wife to visit. If there is any news, the master will send someone to the city to inform you and Dalang."
"good."
Smelling the aroma of food coming from the room, Chu Nanzhi took advantage of the situation and said, "Teacher and Mistress, after you come in and have dinner, I'll ask someone to take you back, right?"
"No need, no need."
Cui quickly waved her hand: "Da Zhi, take good care of Dalang. Chang Lao is ill. I'm afraid Mr. Nie has no intention of staying in the city anymore, so we'll go back first."
After saying that, he handed the wrapped sword back to her.
Chu Nanzhi couldn't force it anymore and called He Ying to personally escort Mr. and Mrs. Nie out of the city. After the two elders left, they returned to the living room.
Lin Jinxiao was sitting at the dining table, with no color at all on his face.
Several little treasures sat around him. They were so frightened by their father's cold expression that they didn't dare to speak. They were extremely cautious even when they twisted their bodies.
Seeing his weird look, Chu Nanzhi couldn't help but shake her shoulders. She held the beautiful sword hilt and walked to him calmly, coughing deliberately: "After all, it was given by your majesty, how can you do it casually?"
throw away."
When Lin Jinxiao saw his wife suddenly appearing in front of him, a faint smile burst out of his bitter face.
Inadvertently looking at her playful expression, Lin Jinxiao's anger immediately dissipated a lot, and he took the sword over carefully.
He had always thought that the Emperor's Sword was a sacred thing, but today's incident made him have a different view in his heart:
Only when you have absolute power can you dominate everything.
Many thoughts that had never occurred to me began to arise in my mind.
"Let's eat quickly."
Lin Jinxiao stood up and put the sword away with an extremely nonchalant look on his face, then helped her sit down.
When the little ones saw that their mother had coaxed their father, they looked at each other and had some fun, and then started to eat without worry, picking up vegetables from each other.
Liu Yun just vaguely heard some conversations in the yard and asked uncertainly: "I heard from Mr. Nie that Chang Lao is sick?"
After saying that, he deliberately glanced at his son-in-law.
Chu Nanzhi also looked at Lin Jinxiao and replied cautiously: "I have asked Uncle Clan and Jin Hui to take my old apprentice to check it out first. I heard from Mr. Nie that it is not serious. Dr. Qian will go over and prescribe a few prescriptions for stability."
If you calm down and rest for a while, you'll be fine."
When he learned that Chang Lao was ill, Lin Jinxiao suddenly felt a little sad.
Ever since I met Chang Lao, this was the first time in so many years that I saw him with such a low eyebrow and a bowed waist.
The two elders taught him and raised him to adulthood. In his mind, the two elders were like a father.
In particular, Chang Lao had the most profound influence on him.
Lin Jinxiao has always regarded Chang Lao as his faith for so many years, but what happened in the past few days has become more and more difficult for him to understand.
When an idle libertine like Lin Erlang was murdered, Chang Lao inexplicably turned his anger on himself. Even Lao Nie, who had always been gentle and kind, became so angry.
The incident at Shuningyuan was even more puzzling to him.
Princess Wanying framed her own wife with ulterior motives, causing her to hurt so many innocent lives in a rage. Now that the real culprit has been caught, several respected old people have interceded on her behalf.
This was not the court he believed in.
Looking at the family who were eating in silence, Lin Jinxiao thought for a long time and suddenly turned to Chu Nanzhi to discuss: "Let's go to Chang's Mansion early tomorrow?"
Chu Nanzhi was waiting for his words. Seeing that he was ready to compromise, she immediately nodded and agreed happily: "Okay."
After all, Chang Lao is so old, and although her old apprentice's medical skills are quite good, she still feels a little uneasy if she doesn't go over there in time to make sure.
When the little ones heard that they were going to visit Grandpa Chang, the eldest daughter Lin Ruiwen first expressed her excitement: "Mom, I also want to visit Grandpa Chang."
Although the Three Treasures and the Four Treasures were afraid of Grandpa Chang, they couldn't help but feel worried when they learned that Grandpa Chang was sick. They all begged, "Mom, let's go too."
"Okay, you guys have a good meal first, and after a night's rest, mother will take you with her."
Chu Nanzhi stared at Shen Yunqing, who had been silent for the whole time. From his expectant eyes, it could be seen that this little guy was also thinking about Chang Lao.
Liu Yun was a little worried that bringing so many little ones there would disturb Chang Lao's recuperation, so she tried to dissuade her: "It's better to let the little ones wait for news at home, so as not to disturb your husband's rest."
"It doesn't matter."
Chu Nanzhi pursed her lips and smiled and touched the little heads of the three and four treasures beside her: "Grandpa Chang has worked hard to teach you knowledge. Now that he is sick, you should go and visit him, but I will be at Grandpa Chang's house tomorrow.
But you must listen to mother and father and don’t disturb Grandpa Chang to recuperate."
"Okay, Aniang, if you don't let us talk, we will keep silent."
Dabaolin Ruiwen promised happily.
"Yes, let's just look at Grandpa Chang."
Sanbao Lin Ruichong hesitated for a moment and said suspiciously: "By the way, I would like to ask Grandpa Chang if he won't have to go to class in the next few days."
"You little guy, don't talk nonsense."
Liu Yun was so angry that she almost vomited blood and glared at Sambo angrily.
Chu Nanzhi almost spat out the food she fed into her mouth. She originally thought that she would be more friendly by bringing these little ones with her, but she never thought that Sanbao had other evil intentions and wanted to skip class.
This doesn't look like Lin Jinxiao's biological son.
