The daughter of a general is reborn to save the whole family of the marquis
Chapter 265 An unexpected surprise
After Xie Lin woke up, he only stayed in the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion for one night. The next morning, he asked Wangshan to prepare a carriage to take him back to the Xie Mansion.
Chu Heyi was worried, so he asked Gan Sui to go back to Xie Mansion with him to check on his injuries at any time. Xie Lin couldn't bear to let her down, so he didn't refuse.
After returning to the Xie Mansion, Xie Lin should have rested well, but he always had a sense of uneasiness in his heart. It was not caused by the injury, but a vague feeling that something was about to happen. If he did not deal with it in time, he might have to pay the price of his life for it.
However, he had no idea what was going to happen next that would have a major impact on his life, as he had such a bad premonition.
Logically speaking, this shouldn't be the case.
He escaped death, and the prime minister was dismissed from office and was not far from death. They got rid of a powerful opponent.
Moreover, he and Chu Heyi had decided to spend their lives together, and all that was left was to propose marriage and offer betrothal.
Furthermore, from the sugar and wine business to the earthquake in Qingyang City, they have outperformed the Cheng Wang couple by a huge margin. Their future should be bright. Why does he still have such serious concerns?
Was it the Queen? Or the Crown Prince? Or was it the mother and son that made him worry like this?
Xie Lin was unwilling to let such hidden worries affect his life, nor did he want his future with Chu Heyi to be destroyed by them. So, after Gan Sui changed the medicine for him, he tried hard to eat a bowl of porridge, chewing a piece of ginseng in his mouth, and asked Wangshan to send him to the palace.
The reason was that he had returned from Qingyang City, having finally escaped death, and had to report to the emperor as soon as possible.
No one in the Xie family could persuade him, so Wangshan had no choice but to spread a thick mattress on the carriage and drive it very slowly to send him to the palace.
Now the whole city is full of news that the Prime Minister murdered the Minister of Justice, colluded with mountain bandits to murder the people, and was then thrown into prison. So when Xie Lin's carriage appeared at the gate of the palace, the officers and soldiers guarding the city all looked as if they had seen a ghost.
Yao An and Yin Shao were guarding the gate of Zichen Palace. When they saw Xie Lin being carried in, they were also stunned. Their reactions were not much different from those of the officers and soldiers at the city gate.
"Thank...thank you, sir?" Yao An and Yin Shao said in unison, their eyes as big as copper bells.
At Xie Lin's signal, the guards put him down, Wang Shan immediately supported him, and he greeted Yin Shao and Yao An.
"It's great that Lord Xie is still alive." Yao An's eyes turned red as he spoke. "If the emperor knew about this, he would definitely be very happy."
At this moment, there was a fierce quarrel in the Zichen Palace.
The emperor lost two ministers, the prime minister and the court judge, at the same time. He was in a bad mood, very sad and regretful.
At the beginning of today's morning court, everyone was discussing who would fill the position of prime minister. After the morning court ended, no result was reached, and the argument continued in the Purple Palace in the afternoon.
The Grand Tutor wanted to push the Crown Prince's people to the position of Prime Minister, but King Cheng also had followers who wanted to push King Cheng's people to this position, and the two sides argued fiercely.
The emperor looked at them and felt that this one was not quite good, and that one was not quite suitable either. He sat on the dragon throne, propped up his head and slightly closed his eyes, and let them argue.
But suddenly, the noisy Purple Palace became quiet, as if you could hear a pin drop. The emperor felt strange, opened his eyes, and was stunned when he saw the scene in front of him.
Xie Lin, who was murdered by the prime minister, actually appeared in the hall? The emperor rubbed his eyes and sat up straight. The person in front of him was indeed Xie Lin.
"Your humble servant pays respect to His Majesty." Xie Lin knelt down in the hall and saluted. "With the blessing of God and the grace of His Majesty, although I was seriously injured by the Prime Minister, I escaped death and saved my life. I specially came to the palace to report to the Emperor."
So that's it! So that's how it is! Xie Lin is not dead!
The emperor was very pleased!
"Since you are seriously injured, you should rest well and send someone to the palace to tell me that you are still alive. Why do you have to go to the palace in person and make your injuries worse?"
Xie Lin said, "I want to personally inform His Majesty about the earthquake in Qingyang City, so that His Majesty won't worry about the people of Qingyang City day and night."
The emperor was very pleased. Having such a minister really made him less worried.
Xie Lin immediately told the emperor about the general situation of Qingyang City, "…the grain prices in Qingyang City have stabilized, and the people are rebuilding their homes. Prince Cheng and Princess Cheng are working over there, so they haven't returned yet."
"Good, very good, you did a great job!" The emperor couldn't help but praise him repeatedly.
Wen Tingshen suddenly stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the grain price in Qingyang City can be controlled at 68 coins per stone, thanks to the rice planting method promoted by Lord Xie, the people of Shengjing City have achieved a bumper harvest. Lord Xie has made three great achievements in one year, and I think he should be rewarded!"
"Lord Wen, what you said is very true. What should I reward Lord Xie with? Lord Xie, is there anything you want?"
Xie Lin was weak and in pain all over, so he spoke slowly. Wen Tingshen spoke first, "Your Majesty, the position of Prime Minister is vacant now. We have been arguing for a long time without any result. Lord Xie is talented and courageous. He risked his life for the people of Daqi several times. I think the position of Prime Minister belongs to Lord Xie."
Before the ministers present could react, the emperor had already made the decision: "Well said, from now on, Xie Lin will be the Prime Minister of Daqi! Prime Minister Xie, you should go back and recuperate as soon as possible, get well soon, and start working for Daqi as soon as possible!"
The emperor was so happy that Xie Lin "came back to life", and everything Xie Lin did was indeed beneficial to the people, so when Wen Tingshen proposed that Xie Lin be made prime minister, the emperor agreed without any hesitation.
It also saves other people from making a fuss.
Xie Lin was still in shock, Wen Tingshen pushed his arm and said, "Congratulations, Prime Minister Xie! Congratulations, Prime Minister Xie!"
The Crown Prince and King Cheng were both heartbroken, but the Emperor had already made the decision, so they could only follow Wen Tingshen in congratulating him, but in fact they were almost biting their gums.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!" Xie Lin said in a deep voice, expressing his gratitude from the bottom of his heart.
Even though the Empress, his biological mother, thought he was an obstacle and that he was not worthy of being born into this world, the Emperor appreciated him, didn’t he? He simply appreciated and recognized him as a person.
Strange emotions surged in his heart.
The news that Xie Lin was not dead and was promoted to prime minister quickly spread to the harem. At that time, the queen was still thinking about what to prepare for Dongfang Ye to propose marriage to the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion.
A jade ruyi fell from her hand.
"He became the prime minister, he actually became the prime minister!" The queen gritted her teeth, her eyes as cold as frost, "This must be what he has been trying so hard to achieve. He wants to block my son's path, he wants to take revenge on me!"
When Xie Lin was on his way out of the palace, the Queen and her men came halfway and stopped him.
The queen looked him up and down, and sent everyone away, leaving only Nanny An with him.
She then spoke: "For the position of Prime Minister, to prove that you are better than your brother, you are willing to risk your life. I have to admire you: Thank you, Prime Minister, you are really amazing."
Xie Lin's face showed no expression: "Thank you for the compliment, Queen. I think so too."
The queen choked, but she continued, "Now you are second only to the emperor and above everyone else. You are extremely powerful. I will not embarrass you anymore. I will even help you if you have any difficulties in the future. But I have one request."
Xie Lin just looked at her without saying anything.
The Queen said, "Ye'er has deep feelings for Miss Heyi and will not marry anyone else in this life. Miss Heyi has already agreed to let him propose marriage. You are his brother after all, so don't ruin his marriage. Regarding our relationship, I am sorry for you, but Ye'er is not wrong."
Xie Lin's heart was shocked. Chu Heyi agreed to let the prince come to propose marriage? !
