Liu Jinyi lowered his head, Chen Min pinched his swollen and painful temples, closed his eyes and said to Liu Jinyi:

"Now that the suspicion on you has been cleared away, you will be able to return to your post after two days of recuperation. You have suffered a lot these days, so take care of yourself."

Liu Jinyi knew that this meant seeing off guests.

It's not that Chen Min can't tolerate him, it's because he has been in the limelight these two days and there are too many things to deal with.

First of all, because he has become an official now, he can no longer live in Leng Mansion. In a hurry, Chen Min can only use his previous savings to buy a second-tier house in the capital to live temporarily.

It's not that he can't afford a bigger house, in fact, he doesn't need to buy it himself, many people rushed to give it to him with the land deed, but they were all rejected by Chen Min.

The house that Chen Min bought was remote and deserted. One reason was that he was poor and had no relatives and friends in the world, so he was left alone, so he didn’t need a big house. Second, he wanted to be quiet and less troublesome.

But even so, there are so many visitors who come here for fame, and most of them are looking for relatives, either his distant relatives or his disciples, these Chen Min can still be turned away, but some courtiers who came to visit sincerely , Chen Min has no reason to stop people outside the door.

In addition to racking his brains to deal with these old foxes in the officialdom, the young emperor often called him an audience, discussed political affairs with him, carefully consulted his opinions, and often talked with him at night by candlelight.

Ying Ze is young and strong, but Chen Min is past the age of ears. Even though Ying Ze has taken good care of him, he has specially set up a stove and a stove in the imperial study for him, and there are people serving tea all the time, but Chen Min's body Still a bit unbearable, but the emperor is wise, how can a courtier retreat?

In this way, Chen Min would naturally feel exhausted.

Liu Jinyi could also see the fatigue of his mentor, and after a few words of concern, he didn't disturb Chen Min's rest, and was led by the house servants to find Jingniang, and the father and daughter returned home together.

When there was no one there, Liu Jinyi confirmed that the partition wall had no ears, so he followed his teacher's instructions and asked who his daughter begged for.

The same as Liu Jinyi's thought, the daughter first went to beg her colleagues and Shangfeng who had some friendship with her in the past, either she was rejected, or the other party said she was powerless, and then served tea to see off the guests.

Liu Jinyi was not surprised by this. After all, fraud in the imperial examination is a major case. If one is accidentally implicated, it will not be enough to lose a few heads. Shallow friendship adventure?

However, there were still a few colleagues who felt sorry, although they didn't help, they still gave Jing Niang some money, Jing Niang was able to deal with the jailers and met her father.

After seeing her father's tragic situation in prison, Jingniang was greatly touched. Even though she was going to visit Chen Min, she was bumped into by her good friend Nan Zhihan in Leng Mansion. Under the latter's questioning, Jingniang No way, I can only drag things out.

When Jing Niang described this passage, her eyes flickered and her words were vague. She said that she met a friend by chance and was forced to tell the truth to Nan Zhihan, but Liu Jinyi knew her daughter very well. , the truth is definitely not the case, but after all, I have already been released from prison, so it is meaningless to pursue these details.

But the little girl that the teacher mentioned is definitely not the youngest daughter of Dali Siqing. Liu Jinyi knew it very well, and asked her daughter:

"Besides these people and mentors, who else have you asked for?"

Seeing that her father was not angry, Jingniang was relieved, and when she heard her father's question, she subconsciously remembered the little princess who was three or four years younger than herself, and replied:

"Zhihan, she...she also brought me to meet...the Princess Tianlu who was adopted by His Royal Highness as a righteous sister. She told me that Princess Tianlu was deeply loved by His Royal Highness and saved His Majesty's life. , and you have the temperament of repaying grievances directly, and you can't see your ministers being humiliated, so you will definitely help daddy out of trouble."

Liu Jinyi fell into deep thought when he heard this.

He knew who the daughter was referring to. She was adopted as a righteous daughter by His Royal Highness, and was named Princess Tianlu by His Majesty today. It is rumored that she is the reincarnation of Bailu and the little princess who is loved by Bailu. Could it be that what the teacher said? Little girl, is this the little princess?

While thinking about it, Liu Jinyi suddenly remembered the food he had inexplicably improved in prison, and a thought flashed across his mind like lightning, which made him widen his eyes instantly, grabbed his daughter's shoulder, and asked:

"Mother Jing, after my father was imprisoned, did you manage the guards and ask them to take care of my daily life?"

Jing Niang was taken aback for a moment, and lowered her head in guilt, her eye circles turned red immediately:

"Daughter...Daughter tried to borrow money...but as soon as they heard that Daddy was in prison...they..."

As soon as Liu Jinyi heard it, he knew that his daughter must not have borrowed money to manage the jailers.

In fact, Jing Niang was also very surprised. She visited Liu Jinyi when he was first in prison, but within a few days, Liu Jinyi was already unconscious. When she came to pick Liu Jinyi out of prison, Ben He had already prepared for his father's serious illness, but unexpectedly, Liu Jinyi looked exceptionally healthy and spirited, and even gained two points of weight compared to when he was at home.

Jing Niang was surprised, but Liu Jinyi figured out the cause and effect in an instant.

He can be sure that the prisoner's care is definitely not the fat man in the same cell, but himself. Those meals specially delivered according to his preferences are evidence, and the person who knows all his food preferences, except himself, may also be good at searching for information. The Fengzi Army under the command of the Regent.

In this way, it can be explained that Jing Niang was indeed lucky, she asked the right person, her mentor said that it was a little girl who opened up the joints, obviously this little girl is the soft-hearted little princess.

Thinking of the wide range and speed of the spread of the teacher's letter, the overwhelming public opinion, and the fact that the teacher was summoned into the palace by the emperor, it was "natural" that it was hard not to think that behind all this, there was a pre-determined A good process, and it is this seemingly young little princess who can connect several key people together.

Seeing her father's solemn expression, Jing Niang remained silent for a while, and asked cautiously:

"Daddy, is there a problem?"

When Liu Jinyi heard the words, he came back to his senses and told his daughter:

"My father is an admonisher, and his status is sensitive, so he can't go to the Regent's Mansion to meet in person. Tomorrow morning, you go to Lingyin Temple to ask for a bowl of eight-treasure vegetarian rice and a spiritual lottery, and give them to your mentor and Princess Tianlu respectively on behalf of your father. From now on, every New Year's day, we will come to thank you, we have to keep this kindness in our hearts."

Jing Niang is puzzled:

"Mr. Chen Min rescued your father and you were released from prison innocently. We should be grateful, but although my daughter begged Princess Tianlu, she didn't help her. Why did we go?"
