Compared to the emperor's disbelief, Lin Jinwen had a natural expression on his face, his smiling eyes were only slit, and he said with joy, "Your Majesty, it's a matter of course, I dare not bully you in a humble position."

He was happy, but the emperor felt that his heart was stuffed. He said: "Look at your worthless appearance, why don't you look like the other people around me at all. After marrying a wife, your temperament has changed."

Wang Jin'an hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Guard Lin knows that he loves others. This is a good thing, it proves that they lived up to the marriage that your Majesty bestowed upon you."

Lin Jinwen's smile remained unchanged and he said: "Your Majesty, Gu Qinglin's body is special now, so it's not easy for me to make him angry."

The emperor sighed, he didn't want to see Lin Jinwen.

It's just that Lin Jinwen didn't wink at him, and continued to ask, "Your Majesty, when can this old nanny be invited to leave? It's better for me to make some preparations in the mansion to welcome people in."

"No more." The emperor said sullenly.

"Ah?" Lin Jinwen's face was full of incomprehension, he asked in a daze, "Why did it disappear?"

The emperor was full of anger and had no place to vent, and seeing Lin Jinwen's stupid look, he endured it, and his tone still couldn't bear some sarcasm: "Is it up to you to choose who you are here? How many people waited and waited when I didn't speak, but you refused at the beginning, and now you want someone, how can it be so easy? Now all the experienced nuns in the palace are being picked away There is no suitable candidate available, you are out of play, you should find someone with experience."

Lin Jinwen pursed his lips, his face felt aggrieved, and he whispered: "Then what should I do? Is it not good for me to go back empty-handed like this? Will Gu Qinglin be angry?"

"Hmph." The emperor sneered, "I don't know if you go back empty-handed or not, but I know that your husband has more brains than you. Back off, I don't want to see you."

Lin Jinwen left with a bitter face, but he was quite happy in his heart.With such a fuss, the emperor probably wouldn't openly place someone beside him.

After he left, the emperor kept shaking his head and said, "Wang Jin'an, look at how he is so stupid? He is so afraid of internal fear that he is not ashamed but proud. His name of chaos is really in vain."

Wang Jin'an is the person who understands the emperor's mind best, he said to himself, Lin Jinwen must be smart, and you may feel even more uncomfortable.Of course, he couldn't say that. He thought for a while and smiled: "Your Majesty, Guard Lin is sincere, and not everyone is willing to say anything in front of the Emperor. The servant thinks that Guard Lin is the only one It is the most precious."

The emperor glanced at him coldly: "You helped him speak up, what good did he do you?"

Wang Jin'an patted his mouth in pain, with very light force, and he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, you are the most clear about what this slave has got, and this slave does not dare to hide it from you. Since guard Lin entered the palace, he has Nothing worth a penny was ever given to the servants. Guard Lin is upright and doesn't have such twists and turns in his heart."

The emperor believed Wang Jin'an's words, and Wang Jin'an would report to him what was given by any minister or concubine in the harem.Even Xiao Rugui would sometimes bring Wang Jinan some gadgets from outside the palace, but Lin Jinwen never gave anything away.

After these days of observation, the emperor also understood that Lin Jinwen's temperament was raised by Lin Songren to be fearless, and he didn't have a brain.Just look at things on the surface, as long as he thinks it is right, he can make sarcastic remarks no matter who is standing opposite you.Anyone dares to offend, and no one is afraid of offending.

Thinking of this, the emperor felt that this should be the case and was a little angry, and then the emperor said unhappily: "Why are there so many cases recently handed in by the Ministry of Punishment? Ask Lin Songren how he is the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, can you Manage the criminal department well?"

Wang Jin'an looked at the emperor who was looking for faults, and felt a little speechless.Lin Songren is really unlucky to be Lin Jinwen's father.Last time when the emperor was unhappy because of Lin Jinwen, he scolded the criminal department for taking too long to solve the case and there were too many cases, and ordered Lin Songren to work overtime.Now that the Ministry of Criminal Justice is about to solve the case, the emperor dislikes the fact that there are too many cases.

It is said that the faces of the women in the harem change as soon as they change, and Wang Jin'an feels that the face of the emperor is easier to change than those of the concubines in the harem.

Wang Jin'an muttered in his heart, but his mouth responded repeatedly.

The officials of the punishment department in that room were blamed for no reason by the emperor, and Lin Songren knew in his heart that Lin Jinwen must have done something good to make the emperor angry.Lin Songren looked at his implicated colleagues, but he couldn't say anything. He could only ask the people in the Criminal Department to step up the investigation and solve the case, and decided in his heart that after the investigation of the case, he would not go to court except for major issues.

But even so, Lin Songren had a hunch that the next time the emperor spit fire on him, he would definitely find an excuse, such as finding out why the case was not reported, whether he wanted to conceal it on purpose, and so on.

Naturally, Lin Jinwen didn't know about the difficulties Lin Songren suffered, and he didn't see Lin Songren much in the next few days.The emperor didn't want to see him, but he had a lot of work arranged for him every day. He would run around with Xiao Rugui every day, most of which was to visit Guangling Palace.

During this period, Lin Jinwen asked Gu Qinglin to go back to Wen's house on purpose, and told Wen's house about the emperor's resignation that he would pay homage to the queen mother and maybe establish a prince.Lin Jinwen had considered this for a long time, the emperor would not say those words in front of him for no reason.The emperor said that he was ready to be leaked by him, after all, he is a brainless image.

But to whom to leak, there is a choice.Gu Qinglin is the best choice, because he is holding Gu Qinglin in his arms now, and he is thinking about him in his heart, so it is reasonable to tell Gu Qinglin what happened in the court.

Furthermore, this matter cannot be concealed, Zhou Rui's haste and tricks are not very good, the Wen family's Master Wen is different from Zhou Rui.He has great power, maybe the emperor has his insiders around him.It was a good time for Gu Qinglin to tell the Wen family about this matter. If the Wen family needed him to inquire about something, at least for the time being, they would not give up on him easily.

As for Lin Jinwen himself, he believed that Zhou Rui didn't want to win him over for the time being.Because what he said was unintentional, and he never thought of standing by Zhou Rui's side.

Maybe it's because of the news or other reasons. Zhou Rui finally didn't have so much trouble recently. After seeing Xiao Rugui and Lin Jinwen, his complexion improved a lot, and he stopped picking on their faults, and even said kindly Believe what Xiao Rugui and Lin Jinwen said.

Xiao Rugui was a little surprised by Zhou Rui's change, he said to Lin Jinwen: "What's wrong with the eldest prince? We have to be light, so as not to be caught by the eldest prince."

Lin Jinwen yawned and said, "You think too much, maybe he's just in a good mood and doesn't want to make trouble." Xiao Rugui didn't take Lin Jinwen's out-of-key words to heart, he was always nervous, I was afraid that Zhou Rui would cause some trouble.

Fortunately, everything went smoothly. Until the day of worshiping the Queen Mother, Zhou Rui remained honest and did not make any mistakes.

The day of the Empress Dowager's death was cloudy, Zhou Rui knelt down in front of the Empress Dowager's mausoleum on behalf of the emperor, weeping bitterly and saying words of mourning.The second prince Zhou An stood beside him with a dazed expression, as if he didn't understand why Zhou Rui was crying at all.When he knelt for the last time, it was Xiaowan who supported him to kneel down, such abrupt movements made him look even more stupid.

The fifth prince, Zhou Kang, let alone, he is still young, and it is already very good to be able to kneel there honestly.The third prince, Zhou Xiang, couldn't cry. He probably had chili water on his cuffs. When he saw Zhou Rui crying uncontrollably, he wiped his eyes, tears streaming down his face.

The fourth prince Zhou Rong kept his head down, maybe thinking of his mother, tears flowed silently.

After the worship time passed, the group left with grief on their faces.

The second prince, Zhou An, followed the crowd in a daze. When he saw Lin Jinwen, he tilted his head for a moment, and then a big smile appeared on his face as if he remembered something.He strode up to Lin Jinwen and said, "I met you."

Lin Jinwen hurriedly saluted him, Xiao Wan caught up and saw Lin Jinwen sized him up and said, "So it's Guard Lin."

Lin Jinwen said: "I didn't know it was the second prince last time, but I hope the second prince will forgive me."

Zhou An said: "Thank you."

Xiao Wan hurriedly explained: "Guard Lin is too polite. Last time the second prince was injured, the slave didn't recognize it in a hurry, and his words were a bit fraught. I always wanted to apologize to Guard Lin, but I just didn't have time. Guard Lin must not talk to the slave. General knowledge."

Lin Jinwen rolled his eyes at him, with a sad expression on his face. He looked at Zhou An and changed another smile: "Second prince, don't be too polite, we will be relatives in the future, so I won't say too many polite words."

Seeing his expression, Xiao Wan twitched the corners of his mouth, thinking that Lin Jinwen was really as brainless as the rumors said.

The matter has been settled, Lin Jinwen and Xiao Rugui will naturally return to the palace, Xiaowan said that Zhou An is also going to the palace to meet Concubine Qi.Everyone entered the palace together.

Zhou An probably had a good impression of Lin Jinwen, and he followed along all the way, and Xiaowan couldn't pull him away.Lin Jinwen had a smug expression on this scene, and said to Xiaowan: "The second prince likes to be an official, so don't talk about etiquette, let's go together."

Xiao Wan was speechless, looking at Zhou An's twisted face, he could only agree.

After returning to the palace, Zhou An followed Lin Jinwen to greet the emperor.The emperor was a little surprised when he saw Zhou An. Every time Zhou An entered the palace, he was taken directly to Concubine Qi, and rarely came to greet him.

After listening to Lin Jinwen's meritorious service, the emperor said happily: "You have done this well, and I will reward you a lot." The reward given by the emperor to Lin Jinwen was very simple and rude, that was white money.

Lin Jinwen narrowed his eyes.

Zhou An stood aside, and then, under Xiaowan's urging, he was a little reluctant to go to the harem to meet Concubine Qi.

After Zhou An left, the emperor looked at Lin Jinwen and said, "I didn't expect you and Zhou An to be eye-catching."

Lin Jinwen said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the second prince probably looks down on the humble and kind."

The emperor's face twitched, and he thought, his face is thick.He said: "It's rare for Zhou An to like someone, you should spend more time with him in the future."

Lin Jinwen didn't want to have more contact with Zhou An at all. No matter whether Zhou An was really stupid or not, for him to get in touch with him would require constant acting, which was really tiring.

He thought about it for a while and gave the emperor a vaccination in advance: "Yes, the second prince just doesn't dislike the clumsiness of humble ministers."

The emperor smiled and said, "You also know that you are clumsy."

Lin Jinwen smiled, but didn't answer.

The emperor said: "You haven't had a good rest these days, you should go back earlier today. You don't have to enter the palace tomorrow, so take a good rest at home."

Lin Jinwen is really happy now, he is not a workaholic, so naturally he also likes to rest.Lin Jinwen left with a smile on his face after thanking him, of course he did not forget the silver rewarded by the emperor.

After Lin Jinwen returned to Lin's house, he handed over the money to Gu Qinglin, and then he lazily lay down on the soft bed to rest.Probably because in the environment he was familiar with, his heart relaxed a lot. At this moment, he only felt that the whole person was about to fall apart.Speaking of these days, he left early and returned late, so he didn't have a good talk with Gu Qinglin, let alone anything else.

Gu Qinglin saw that his whole body was piled up on the slump, looking very tired, and said: "Shui Su is very strong, let him come over and press your shoulders."

Gu Qinglin only felt that after saying this, Lin Jinwen looked at him a little strangely, and he said, "What's wrong?"

Lin Jinwen smiled lazily and said, "I'll teach you a trick. Ignore the things you can't do for the time being. Don't let your husband get in touch with others for any reason. I think I have self-control and can handle it. , but what if you become addicted and get used to it?"

Gu Qinglin tightened his hands, and he said: "Of course I believe in you, and I also believe that Shui Su is not that kind of person." He said these words forcefully, but his thoughts were complicated.

Lin Jinwen said indifferently: "It's not a question of whether you believe it or not. You see, no one will press it for me, and I'm fine. I'll avoid these risks that can be avoided, so as not to cause trouble." This ancient man believed too much in such things as selling his life. This matter has always been not afraid of [-], but just in case.

Gu Qinglin hummed and said: "I understand."

Lin Jinwen didn't expect Gu Qinglin to be so obedient, and couldn't help giggling.Gu Qinglin looked at him with an inexplicable expression.

The next day, Lin Jinwen took a rest and slept very leisurely.

While Lin Jinwen was sleeping, the emperor announced in the hall that he was feeling unwell, and the eldest prince Zhou Rui was to supervise the country for the time being.
