Rich and powerful

Ye Ruhui's eyes lit up, and he said, "So the batch of grain that the emperor collected in Fengyang County not long ago belonged to you?"

Immediately, he thought of something again, and said with deep meaning: "So, you and Cui Mingchong, the servant of the household department, are also very close?"

Lin Yun muttered inwardly that it was not good, the old man was clearly an insider, but he still knew too little.

Lin Yun laughed dryly, and said, "Don't get me wrong! Lord Cui is an imperial envoy, and the official who solved the disaster in Haocheng last time. I just met him by chance, and we don't have a deep relationship!"

Ye Ruhui nodded with a smile, but didn't say any more, just grabbed a piece of roast mutton and ate it.

"Well, the roast mutton of Yueshengzhai is still so delicious!! Boy, did that girl Wanqing ask you to buy it?"

Lin Yun couldn't understand why the old man suddenly changed the subject.

If he continued to break the casserole and ask the end, it would make him feel at ease, but after doing this, Lin Yun began to lose his mind.

"That's right! It's my first time in Beijing too, and I'm not very familiar with your old preferences!"

Ye Ruhui nodded, ate on his own, and took another sip of wine.

Lin Yun saw it, but didn't know what to say.

After that, the father and father only talked about some basic necessities of life in the capital, and stopped talking about other things.

Although Lin Yun secretly breathed a sigh of relief, for some reason, there was always a feeling that he couldn't get up and down.

In the middle of the night, when Lin Yun came out of the study, Ye Wanqing immediately went up to meet him and said, "Master, my father didn't make things difficult for you, did he?"

Lin Yun smiled wryly and shook his head, and said, "How should I put it? The old man didn't make things difficult for me, but it did make me feel a little uncomfortable! However, your father drank too much and is sleeping on the table now!"

Ye Wanqing stretched her head to look inside the study, and she saw her father sleeping soundly.

"Sir, I promise my mother will stay at home tonight! Do you plan to stay overnight, or go back to Yunfu to rest?"

Lin Yun waved his hand and said, "Forget it! You and your family haven't seen each other for nearly two years, and you must have a lot to talk about. Besides, we won't be able to stay in the capital for a few days, so you should stay at home and spend time with your parents! I I'll go back first! If I don't go back, Qi Rui must have wild suspicions again."

"Okay then! Mr. Xiang... Thank you!!"

Lin Yun reeked of alcohol, pampered her head and turned to leave.

But not long after Lin Yun left, Ye Ruhui, who was drunk on the table, suddenly woke up, not as drunk as before. Although he was still full of alcohol, he was very conscious.

Looking at the second daughter who had covered herself with a blanket, she said in a deep voice, "Wanqing, wait a minute!"

Ye Wanqing was shocked, turned her head to see that her father had woken up, and said with a smile, "Father, aren't you drunk?" '

"Drunk? When have you ever seen your father drunk? Or was he drunk by a brat?"

Ye Wanqing slandered inwardly, her father was really cunning, pretending to be drunk on purpose, he must have something to say to herself.

"Father... Did you say something you shouldn't have said?"

"Okay, Dad has a headache now, go make a pot of tea! I have something to tell you!"

Ye Wanqing stomped her feet and could only turn around to make tea.

When she returned to the study, Ye Ruhui had ordered someone to take away the leftovers on the table, and he was standing in front of the table, practicing calligraphy like a snake.

Ye Wanqing put a pot of hot tea on the table and said angrily, "Father, you can say what you want to say now!" '

"sit down!!"

Ye Ruhui talked, but his hands were not idle, he was still writing calligraphy.

Looking at it, it seems that it is very skillful to write a word of "Lian".

Ye Wanqing saw it, so she didn't say much. The father and daughter didn't talk that much before.

Although the National Academy of Scholars she was in before also belonged to the elite think tanks of the imperial court, it was still different from her father, the official censor.

Most of the censors are stubborn and stubborn people, and the officials of the court are all-encompassing. As the emperor, there are corrupt officials under him, so there must be a censor.

Only balance is the best policy.

Ye Wanqing is well aware of this point, but it is rare for her to be like her father.

In the Daduan Dynasty, they are all famous cruel officials.

Naturally, a considerable part of the reason why he was criticized by various feudal lords at the beginning was because he wanted to take the opportunity to drag Ye Ruhui into trouble.

And the civil and military officials of the court are even more eager for him to have problems, so that they can relax.

But Ye Wanqing knew her father best, and knew that this was impossible.

My father knows the emperor's thoughts best, and also knows the benefits of cutting the feudal clan, so, for the long-term interests of the country, he can be regarded as sacrificing his daughter.

But who ever thought that things would turn around, Lin Yun's appearance not only made Ye Wanqing turn from danger to safety, but also returned to the center of power.

Ye Ruhui said in a deep voice, "Do you know what word Dad wrote?"

Ye Wanqing rolled her eyes and said, "Of course I know, isn't it just a word for honesty?"

"Well, let me ask you, is there any corruption in the batch of grain that Lin Yun sold to the imperial court in Niubei Village? Or does it have anything to do with Cui Mingchong?"

"Father, I advise you not to worry so much, I am your daughter, and Lin Yun is your son-in-law!"

"I know! That's why I need to ask more clearly! So as not to be chewed on by others!"

"Hmph, don't worry dad, we will never drag you down!!"

"boom!!"

Ye Ruhui was furious, and threw the Langhao writing brush in his hand on the table forcefully, and shouted: "Presumptuous!" !Wanqing, you are my daughter, and you are the Ye family. My Ye family has been loyal for three generations. You must never do anything against the imperial court, the country, and the country!If you say that, don't blame your father for not being sympathetic and directly ordering to investigate that Lin Yun! '

Ye Wanqing stood up directly on the chair, stared and said: "Father, I admit that Lin Yun and Cui Mingchong looked at me a little bit, but to tell the truth, everything Lin Yun did was for the sake of the peace of the court! If you don't know Don't ask for trouble about it!"

Ye Ruhui frowned and said, "What do you mean by that?"

Ye Wanqing sneered and said: "Since we have reached this point, my daughter might as well speak up! Lin Yun has been cooperating with Master Cui, planning to cut down the feudal clan! This matter was secretly ordered by the present majesty! Father, even if you want to investigate , and there will be absolutely no results! On the contrary, it will cause trouble!"

Ye Ruhui was shocked, and said: "Cutting down the clan? What is this kid capable of? He also participated in cutting down the clan? Then Cui Mingchong has been secretly disrupting the court and forming a party for personal gain. What good can he do?"

"Father, Master Cui is indeed not a good person! But you should also know one thing. He can get the emperor's favor, which in itself explains a lot of problems. Father is the most loyal minister of the Daduan Dynasty, but your duty is to report corrupt officials. Officials, to report to the emperor, but in fact, you don’t know anything about other things related to the country! I believe the emperor didn’t tell you, otherwise you wouldn’t have said such a thing!”
