The fast-traveling girl has no feelings for her

Chapter 79 The eldest lady will not marry ([-]) (first update)
Chapter Ninth - The sound of drums outside the Chaoyang Gate

In Jinling City, the Household Minister's Mansion.

The Minister of Tobe and His Excellency were at the back door of the mansion, walking up and down anxiously, while rubbing their hands constantly.

It's coming, it's coming, the mother-daughter pair he's longed for!
Originally, he didn't want to do it so quickly. You know, it's the best time to do it after the Lin family's mother and daughter leave Jinling City.

But yesterday he went to the Lin Mansion again, in the name of paying tribute, and spied on those two beauties again.

No wonder folks often say that if you want to be pretty, you must wear filial piety first.

Seeing those two lovely people in plain clothes, his heart seemed to be on fire, and he wished he could get the two of them immediately.

After returning home, he tossed and turned on the bed and couldn't sleep.

The anger in his heart was really hard to appease, that's why he took the risk of sending someone to take the two of them back today while the Lin family was going to have a funeral.

Although this action hurts human relations, as long as it is hidden and no one knows, what's the problem?

If you want to know the dirty work under the sun, that's too much!
It's not too much to do at home.After all, the mother and daughter are poor people right now, it's up to him and the adults to comfort them, and he's doing it for the two of them too!

Calculating the time, my carriage should be on the way back by now.

Sure enough, not long after, there was a sound of horseshoes walking and carriage wheels rolling at the back door.

Master He immediately ordered someone to open the back of his house, let the carriage in first, and then waited for the servants driving the carriage to be pushed aside, then he couldn't wait to wrap up his robe and get into the compartment of the carriage.

However, when he got into the car and looked, he saw that there were only three sacks inside. The mouths of the bags were still tied, but they looked shriveled, and there was clearly nothing in them.

He was so anxious that he quickly bent down, took a few steps forward and untied a linen bag, then turned the bag upside down and shook it.

As a result, only a green plantain leaf fell out of the burlap bag, and there was nothing else in it.

He who got out of the carriage had a gloomy expression on his face.

He immediately called the people in charge of the matter over and asked them to explain where the people in the carriage had gone.

Seeing the empty carriage carriage, these people looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing what happened.

When they joined hands with the group of people who did the work, they clearly watched them put three bulging sacks into the carriage, and then both parties paid with one hand and delivered the goods with the other.

They were all sitting around the carriage along the way, without blinking an eyelid. Why did everyone suddenly disappear?This can't be done!

"You all said that the person was inside, but now I ask you, where is the person? Where did the person go?"

Mr. He was getting angry when his son, who was also lustful, heard the news from somewhere and went to the back door to investigate the situation.

Seeing his father standing guard in front of a carriage, this young and handsome nobleman walked over and said with some displeasure, "Dad, what are you doing here?"

Master He turned his head and saw his son, he immediately coughed lightly and said, "It's nothing, it's just that a few servants made a mistake, and I'm reprimanding them."

Mr. He's son obviously didn't believe his father's arguments.

In his opinion, Dad must have sent these people to do something sneaky, and the group of people screwed up.

Before the father and son could say a few more words, the butler of the mansion hurried over to the place where Mr. He was, panting and running.

Before he could stand still, he gasped and said, "Master, master, the big thing is not good, it's not good..."

"What's going on, tell me slowly. How can you be in such a panic?"

As soon as he finished speaking with adults, he heard his confidant say something that sent a chill down his spine.

"Master, then, the eldest lady of the Lin family is going to beat the Dengwen drum!"

What?The heart of the adult and the whole person suddenly went cold.

What is a Dengwen drum?
Isn't that the big drum placed outside the Chaoyang gate of the imperial palace, which is specially used for people to sue the imperial court?

Mr. He didn't have time to think about why Miss Lin, who should be in the carriage now, went outside the palace gate at this time.He asked the housekeeper directly: "Only Miss Lin plays the drums alone? But are there other people present?"

"Gone."

The butler had time to wipe off the sweat from his forehead and said, "She is the only one in the news from our servants. Neither Mrs. Lin nor anyone else saw it."

Hearing this, Master He began to pace back and forth restlessly.

Now only the eldest lady of the Lin family went to beat the Dengwen drum, what about the others?
Where did Mrs. Lin go?
Where did Lin Zhengxian's sister, Lin Zhenghui, go?

You must know that Lin Zhengxian was born in a poor family, and his two close relatives in his family have long since passed away. His distant relatives lived a comfortable life in those small rural places by virtue of his title as Minister of the Household Department.

If Mrs. Lin and Lin Zhenghui defected to these people, why did they leave Lin Shu alone?
He Xingchun could only suspect that the members of the Lin family hadn't left yet, and they might still be staying in Jinling City.

Then why did they let the youngest lady of the Lin family sue the imperial court?What are they going to sue?
Could it be the kidnapping planned by my family today?

No, there was no way they would have guessed who was behind their kidnapping until they met me.

This leaves only the last possibility.

The last possibility was left for the women and children of the Lin family to insist on staying in Jinling City, even risking offending Sheng Yan by going to Chaoyang Gate to beat the drum.

If this is the case, once His Majesty really receives Lin Shu, the eldest lady of the Lin family, there may be another storm in the court!No, we must find a way to prevent Lin Shu from suing the imperial court!

He and the adults were in a hurry, and they had already made a decision.

He immediately asked people to prepare his official uniform and prepare to enter the palace to face the saint. At the same time, he sent his confidants to report to his backer, saying that Lin Zhengxian's daughter, Lin Shu, was going to sue the imperial court. The news will make an immediate decision.

Following his order, all the servants in the mansion started to move, and the whole He Mansion seemed to fall into a tense atmosphere.

The adult's son also realized something was wrong at this time, he didn't bother his father anymore, but quietly retreated.

And at this time outside the Chaoyang Gate.

As early as half an hour ago, the two guards guarding the gate were still drowsy under the warm sun.

Because the Chaoyang Gate is hardly opened once a year, and there is a big Kui leather drum outside the gate. The drum surface is severely worn by wind and sun, and hardly anyone comes to knock on it.

Therefore, these two guards live an extremely boring gatekeeping life almost every day.

But today, just when they thought that yawning, basking in the sun and taking a nap would be a relaxing day, a figure of a woman in plain clothes suddenly appeared in their field of vision.

When they raised their heads, the woman who looked particularly young was stopping in front of the Dengwen drum.

Then she picked up the two big drumsticks on the drum stand, and when she dropped her hands, there was a dull drum sound.

At the moment when the drum sounded, the two guards woke up instantly.

"Boom, boom, boom...", as the woman's hands drummed faster and faster, the rapid drumbeats hit the hearts of the two of them one after another like raindrops.

The sound of the drum was sometimes muffled and sometimes violent, and the two guards were fascinated by it for a moment.

After a while, a person suddenly realized.

"Someone is beating the Dengwen drum! This person is beating the Dengwen drum! Hurry up, go and inform the adults in the remonstrance courtyard!"
