The fake eunuch who lurked in the palace

Chapter 492 Dinner at the 2nd Prince’s Mansion

"What a good Jiang Jin!"

Cao slapped the table angrily, "Where's the man? Call him over!"

"gone."

"Leave?!" Cao Guan paced for a few steps and kept mumbling, "Lawless, simply lawless!!!"

"Lieutenant, let's not try to control him. He is not someone to be trifled with." The guard advised him.

Cao Guan's eyes immediately widened, "Do you think I can't suppress him?"

"Captain Lieutenant, if you are serious about it, Marquis Jing'an will definitely not be able to stir up trouble, but the key point is that he has the Emperor behind him."

"If the trouble really gets out of hand, it would not be a good thing if the emperor thinks that the captain is forcing Marquis Jing'an away out of pure intention."

"Big trouble." The attendant looked solemn.

Guan Cao fell silent and waved his guards to retreat. If he hadn't known that this was the emperor's intention, he would have beaten Jiang Jin out on the first day he came.

Cao Guan knew in his heart that he would have to hand over this garrison if he didn't want to.

But how could the people he brought out be willing to be handed over to idiots?

If Jiang Jin was arrogant, ignorant, and clueless, Guan Cao would not let him take over the garrison even if he tried his best to anger the emperor.

"I'll come over later."

After sending Li Yi to Jing'an Hou Mansion, Lin Wan turned his horse's head and rode away.

For the sake of convenience, she usually wears smart clothes with sleeves, which is fine for normal times, but it is not suitable for going to the Second Prince's Mansion.

"What is Madam doing?"

After passing the gate, Li Yi casually asked the guard.

"Miss Lin Er is here. Madam is talking to her in the side hall."

Li Yi raised his eyebrows, what was Lin Shu thinking about?

Li Yi took off his coat and strode to the side hall.

Holding the black pieces, Lin Shu frowned slightly. After a while, she put the chess box back.

"The music, chess, calligraphy and painting are all so good, it's a pity to look at them."

Lin Xi spoke with emotion.

"You better worry about yourself."

Li Yi walked in and tilted his head at Lin Shu.

"Why are you back so early?"

Lin Shu looked at the sky and raised her eyebrows slightly. Tang Xin also looked at Li Yi and poured him a cup of hot tea.

"Captain Cao was considerate of my newlyweds and asked me to spend more time with my wife."

Li Yi sat down next to Tang Xin and looked at the steaming tea. He picked up Tang Xin's tea and drank it without hesitation.

"How was your meal today?"

"I wanted to buy some jujube paste cakes on Dongzhao Street, but the vendor closed the stall. I will ask my guard to buy them tomorrow."

"Why is there a charcoal basin in this side hall? It's good if you catch a cold."

Li Yiqing frowned, and after noticing that Tang Xin's hands were cold, he took off his coat and wrapped Tang Xin tightly.

"When Madam receives guests later, please place a charcoal basin in the side hall in advance."

Li Yi said to the maid standing beside him.

"I will take care of myself. Well, Miss Lin Er is still here."

Tang Xin asked Li Yi to be cautious.

Li Yi gathered Tang Xin's coat and said, "It doesn't matter. If it hadn't been for that incident, we and the General's Mansion would have been as close as one family."

Lin Shu looked at this scene and stood up silently.

"Walk slowly, don't send."

Without waiting for Lin Shu to say goodbye, Li Yi spoke first.

Lin Shu rolled his eyes and turned around, too lazy to look at Li Yi again.

Isn't this bastard about feelings careless and very considerate?

"Second sister, I heard from the guard that you went to Jing'an Marquis Mansion?"

As soon as Lin Shu came back, Lin Wan came to her room.

"How is Tang Xin's condition?"

"Her face is rosier than mine." Lin Shu replied angrily.

Lin Wan blinked, "Second sister, did you bump into Jiang Jin?"

The second sister has always been calm and casual, but after that incident, whenever she had anything to do with Jiang Jin, the second sister seemed to be on fire.

"The Jiang family's madness is engraved in their bones."

"Except for the person in their eyes, they don't care about the life or death of others."

"I kind of know why Tang Xin didn't choose Ling Yi."

"That kind of allure for women..." Lin Shu shook his head.

"Second sister, are you jealous?"

Lin Shuo sprayed out the water she just drank from her mouth, "Wan'er, how did you come up with such scary words!"

Jealous?

If Lin Shuo had Lin Wan's strength, she would slap Jiang Jin three times a day!

Morning, noon and evening are clearly arranged for him!

"Second sister, Jiang Jin will go to the Second Prince's Mansion for a banquet tonight."

"You want to stop him?" Lin Wan looked at Lin Shu.

Lin Shu's expression became solemn, "Father has already expressed his position, and the second prince's move has made it clear that he will not give up."

"Where's the second brother?"

As soon as Lin Shu finished speaking, there was a knock on the door, and then Lin Jin walked in.

He knew about the banquet hosted by the second prince last night because he also received the post.

"Since the second prince insists on meeting Jiang Jin, let him meet him. Once he meets him, some of his thoughts may disappear." Lin Jin narrowed his eyes and spoke slowly.

"Jiang Jin is not a sheep that is easy to control."

"It's not unusual for them to smash up the second prince's house if they get mixed up."

"Will the second brother come with him?" Lin Shu looked at Lin Jin and opened her lips lightly.

"Go and watch the excitement, lest he really destroys the Second Prince's Mansion." Lin Jin curled his lips, "Our Mansion is already short of money, don't worry, we will have to pay another sum to hire the jailers."

"Recently, has Ling Yi made any moves?"

"It's silent, but I can feel that a bigger storm is brewing." Lin Shu said in a condensed voice.

"We can only be careful." Lin Jin pursed his lips.

The General's Mansion is not afraid of the Ling family, but at this moment, they can't make a move at all.

The army's pay has been delayed for a long time, and the amount provided by the Ministry of Revenue is simply not enough. If this continues, the army may be in chaos.

But the General's Mansion sold everything that could be resold, and Lin Jin even wanted to imitate Li Yi and cried miserably.

However, the emperor's attitude towards the Lin family was obviously no better than that of the Marquis of Jing'an.

The emperor was very suspicious, and the deeper his background, the less he wanted to see him.

Li Yi seized every moment with Tang Xin, either grinding for her or admiring plum blossoms in the garden.

In Li Yi's plan, he would send Tang Xin out of Xuancheng in half a month at most.

And this gift will not be seen in a short time.

"Xin'er."

Li Yi held Tang Xin's hand and played in the garden.

It wasn't until the sun gradually lost its warmth that Li Yi took Tang Xin back to the house.

After changing his clothes, Li Yi got on the carriage to the Second Prince's Mansion.

Lin Wan and Lin Jin were waiting for him halfway.

"I noticed that you two are becoming more and more rude."

Li Yi looked at the two brothers and sisters who did not regard him as an outsider and were just drinking tea and eating cakes by themselves, and spoke leisurely.

"Being polite to you is no less than punishing myself."

"Be calm tonight. If you cause trouble again, just stay in the prison of the Criminal Department." Lin Jin snorted.

Li Yi shook the white jade on his waist, "I never take the initiative to cause trouble. There is no time when they don't bump into me."

"If you are bitten by a dog, if you don't hit him back with a stick, wouldn't it only increase his arrogance and make him more unscrupulous?"

"I've never been very broad-minded."

"If you dare to scream, I will whip you."

"It doesn't matter who he is." Li Yi raised his chin slightly, his eyes arrogant.
