In the next few days, King Xiang began to carefully observe Lin Chong's work and rest time, and found that although he went to bed very early every day, he also got up very early in the morning.
Ren Zanhua, Huang Xin and other senior ministers often appeared in the Imperial Study Room. When they chatted there, they would deliberately keep others away. Therefore, no one knew what they talked about.
This also made King Xiang very puzzled. He also visited the imperial study several times in the name of sending paintings and calligraphy, but he did not find any mystery there.
Lin Chong still looked unlearned and unskilled, as if he was determined to be a dandy. On this day, the young eunuch still came to report Lin Chong's day's itinerary to King Xiang. There was nothing new about it, it was the same thing every day.
King Xiang yawned and let him go down after hearing this.
After the little eunuch walked away, the shadow behind the screen spoke: "This person under your command still needs to be carefully investigated. He is most likely building a plank road openly and secretly visiting Chen Cang. What he said may not be credible.
"
King Xiang was surprised: "You mean he has been bribed by the emperor?"
"I can't completely confirm this. You can probably find out by searching in his room. I just saw that he has been in frequent contact with Manager Wang in the past few days."
"Wang Cheng'en?" King Xiang paused. "I understand. I will pay attention to it. You should also be careful not to be noticed by others."
The black figure seemed very conceited: "Don't worry, it won't happen. I know exactly what to do."
King Xiang was not angry at all with his attitude.
In fact, having someone handle government affairs for him is not a bad thing for Lin Chong. Not only is it not a bad thing, it should also be said to be a good thing. He just has time to relax and adjust himself.
Although King Xiang has great ambitions, Lin Chong is still fully convinced of his ability. There will be no big problem in letting him handle government affairs for him. What's more, there are so many veterans watching for him, so it is basically not possible.
Something happened.
Because of this, Lin Chong simply asked Prince Xiang to be the regent, and even asked him to do the work in court. He finally had time to take a good look and conduct an on-the-spot investigation near the suburbs of Beijing.
This morning, Zhou Ze brought a letter to Lin Chong. Lin Chong was originally curious about who would write to him. When he opened it, he was happy. The letter was written by Wu Youke and reported to him some information about Yueshan County.
latest situation.
Lin Chong had always felt guilty before, and he left before this matter was completely resolved. Wu Youke wrote in the letter that not long after Lin Chong and the others left, he made new discoveries about those potions. He soon found them on Yueshan
He found herbs that could suppress this mutation, and the local officials also cooperated with him. After learning that this mutation would not be directly transmitted from person to person, everyone became bolder, and these mutants also got
Very well taken care of.
Mrs. Lu's recovery was very good, and she was able to maintain a clear mind most of the time. Lu Zixuan's body has almost recovered, and he has begun to take over some of his father's old businesses, and the old people of the Lu family are slowly coming back.
When Lu Qingyu heard that he was going to write a letter back to the capital, he specially asked her to help thank Miss Wen. Enclosed with the letter was a beautifully crafted white jade flute.
Lin Chong picked it up and looked around. Zhou Ze remembered the grand occasion when he played the piano at the Song family. How could he dare to let him touch the flute again now?
He snatched the flute and said to Lin Chong: "Let's leave it with Wei Chen for now. Wei Chen will give it to Miss Wen himself someday."
Lin Chong clicked his tongue twice: "I knew your boy was having an affair with Wen Shaoxue. She is a good girl. Treat her well."
Zhou Ze was a little embarrassed, because his words were actually just casual remarks, and he had no idea where Miss Wen was now, but he still pretended to agree.
After learning that the matter had been perfectly resolved, Lin Chong felt relieved and happily made plans to leave the palace.
King Xiang tried his best to gain power, but in the end, he didn't care about it at all. He put all the government affairs on himself and then went out to play with his two children. I don't know why King Xiang always seems to have a kind of power.
Feeling like I've suffered a big loss.
In addition, the old guys in the court were always contradicting him and raising troublesome questions one after another. Prince Xiang just wanted to flip the table and leave.
However, before Lin Chong left, he made a special trip to make a new rule: civil servants could not be imprisoned unless they committed serious crimes. The Donglin Party members were now like a fish in water, and they were even more energetic in the court, and they could come up with new tricks every day to make King Xiang half angry to death.
.
King Xiang worked hard to find out the Donglin Party members who had climbed up through connections, and tried his best to collect evidence of their crimes. Then as long as he pulled one of them down, Ren Zanhua and Ni Yuanlu would immediately have a suitable candidate with both political integrity and talent.
Candidates are recommended.
King Xiang had only been in the capital for a short period of time and had not had time to cultivate his own party members. Most of the people he brought over were from peasants with little education, and it was indeed impossible to serve as civil servants.
He had no doubt that the new officials appointed were all Lin Chong's people, but he couldn't say anything because he couldn't let these official positions remain vacant for a long time.
And once he tries to leave the Donglin Party alone, the fire will continue to burn, and the spring breeze will continue to torment him. He has just dealt with two small officials of the Donglin Party, and someone will immediately jump out to challenge him.
He didn't deal with it, he didn't deal with it, and in the end, he turned into a human being inside and outside. King Xiang now understood that those old ministers who always went to the imperial study room without saying anything about the memorial were discussing with Lin Chong. Dare you love him?
At that time, we decided to stay here to deal with these old guys from the Donglin Party.
They were all watching the fun and it was not a big deal. King Xiang didn’t know if the emperor lived like this every day. He only knew that he just wanted to leave now. He missed Xiangyang’s simple folk customs and the place where people were called.
Very handy man.
Here Lin Chong left the palace in a low-key manner, taking only Lin Fei and Mu Xi with him. Lin Fei's martial arts was barely recognized by Wang Chengen. In addition, there was a half-year-old Mu Xi beside him, and the palace was really incapable of doing anything, so Wang Chengen had to
It was up to the three of them to go.
Although there were a bunch of secret guards behind him, Lin Chong had become accustomed to ignoring them.
The three of them had a great time eating, drinking and having a great time. Even Mu Xi temporarily took off the mask of youth and maturity. Lin Chong led them to pretend to eat the King's meal and ran away when no one was paying attention, making all the vendors angry.
Mu Xi also learned how to forge without a teacher, and they even cashed out the money from the bank. At that time, his head was sweating, and although Mu Xi looked calm and relaxed, in fact, his calves were shaking all the time.
Only Lin Chong was really not in a hurry. He still had a genuine card in his sleeve. If it was not a fake one, he could just say that he was also deceived.
