The Legend of Rebirth of the Demon Empress

Chapter 258
Lin Zisu looked at it for a moment, Xie Xi was right, his attire, at first glance, did not show any signs of traveling far.

However, although the clothes on his body were flat, Lin Zisu could still see the extremely obvious creases on them at a glance.

And on Xie Xi's body, she also smelled a sour smell.

Lin Zisu wrinkled her nose and said with a smile on her face, "Fourth brother, there are not many problems with your clothes, but the smell on your body can completely betray you."

Hearing this, Xie Xi raised his sleeve and put it in front of his nose to smell it, and said, "Is there any? Why didn't I smell it?"

Lin Zisu let out a chuckle, and joked: "You seem to have come out of the abalone place, and now my yard smells like you."

Xie Xi scratched her head, and said embarrassedly: "I just entered the city, and I was only focused on seeing you, but I forgot about it. My trip to Guanzhong is no secret, but some people in my house , or to keep it a secret."

Lin Zisu was very happy when he heard that he came to see her as soon as he entered the city.

But she also knew that Xie Xi was ordered by the emperor to go out this time, and it stands to reason that after returning to the capital, he should return to his order as soon as possible.

Xie Xi went to Guanzhong secretly. After Guanzhong revealed his identity, it was no longer a secret among the ruling and opposition parties.

Not to mention others, Qian Minzhong, who is in charge of the cabinet, will definitely watch Xie Xi's every move.

Lin Zisu flashed her almond eyes and said, "Fourth brother, I heard from Shizi Yang that His Majesty has been waiting for news from you. You can go to your business first, and you can come to me at any time if you have anything to say. "

Xie Xi had thousands of words to say in his heart, but Lin Zisu had spoken, even if he was unwilling to do so, he reluctantly followed Lin Zisu's suggestion.

He stared at Lin Zisu reluctantly for a few breaths, and then said reluctantly: "Okay, then I will listen to you, and I will go to see Father first."

After Xie Xi left, there was no letter again.Early the next morning, Xie Xi arrived at Kang Ningbo's residence.

This day is Lin Yuanzhi's rest day. In the past month, with the resignation of Liu Qingyuan, the former chief assistant of the cabinet, and Ye Quan, the secretary of the Ministry of officials, there have been changes in the officials of all sizes.

When people's hearts fluctuate, it is inevitable that there will be mutual criticism.Numerous old cases have been uncovered, and the three courts are extremely disturbed.

As the new servant of the Ministry of Justice, Lin Yuanzhi is very busy, and staying overnight in the yamen has become a routine.

It's rare to have a day's rest, Lin Yuanzhi planned to take advantage of the crispness of autumn and take his family out to enjoy the autumn.

The Lin family even packed their luggage a day in advance, and before they could go out, the concierge came to announce that it was Dun Wang Xie Xi who came to visit.

Hearing Xie Xi's arrival, Lin Yuanzhi's heart twitched, and he immediately had a headache. This Xie Xi, why did he come here so sooner or later!
Lin Yuanzhi had been in a relaxed mood for the past two days, but with Xie Xi's arrival, he sank to the bottom in an instant.

Unhappy is not happy, Xie Xi's identity is still there after all, even if Lin Yuanzhi became Xie Xi's father-in-law, he did not dare to break his etiquette, and hurriedly stood up to welcome him.

Xie Xi did not regard himself as an outsider at all. When the concierge notified him, he had already entered the courtyard of Uncle Kangning's mansion.

Since the emperor bestowed the marriage, the servants of the Lin family have also become concerned about this future son-in-law.

These days, the servants have heard about the past "brilliant experience" of this future son-in-law.

Seeing Xie Xizhi proudly leading two carriages into the door, the servants didn't know what kind of trouble King Dun was about to make, so they watched from afar and dared not approach.

Seeing Lin Yuanzhi, Xie Xi came over with a smile on his face, saluted and said: "My lord father-in-law, I have been busy these few days and have not come to visit you and my mother-in-law at the house. I have prepared some gifts for these things, and I would like to invite my lord father-in-law Laughing."

Listening to Xie Xi saying "father-in-law", Lin Yuanzhi was unhappy. Is this Xie Xi urging him to marry his daughter?
He exchanged a few words with Xie Xi, and then said: "His Royal Highness Dun, although you and your eldest sister have been married by His Majesty, after all, you are not married yet. It is better not to call this 'father-in-law' for the time being." Ridiculous."

Xie Xi responded with a smile, then turned around and asked the servants to unload a few boxes from the car.

When the boxes were almost unloaded, Xie Xi opened one of the boxes and said to Lin Yuanzhi: "My lord father-in-law, these are some paintings and calligraphy that I bought recently. I'll ask someone to send them to your study?"

The Lin family has a lot of books, but most of them are miscellaneous books, or the miscellaneous notes of the unofficial history of the predecessors.

Those masterpieces that have been handed down from generation to generation are rare and expensive. With the influence of the Lin family, it is really difficult to collect them.

Lin Yuanzhi heard that it was calligraphy and painting, and his cold face softened slightly.

He walked closer, stretched his head to look inside, and said casually, "I'm just an ordinary person, calligraphy and painting, it's a pity to let me here."

Having said that, Lin Yuanzhi still waved his hand and signaled the two servants to carry the box away.

Seeing that Lin Yuanzhi had accepted his gift, Xie Xi smiled and said, "Father-in-law, I heard that we are going to Lingtan Mountain to enjoy the autumn today? I have nothing to do today, so let's hang out with you."

Lin Yuanzhi's forehead was throbbing with veins, and he immediately wanted to return the box of calligraphy and paintings.After thinking about it, Lin Yuanzhi suppressed his irritability and said, "Since you want to go, then just go."

The female relatives were still tidying up in the backyard. With Lin Yuanzhi in the front yard, Xie Xi didn't dare to make a fuss, and waited for Lin Zisu to come out.

After about a quarter of an hour, Lin Zisu came out with two maidservants. When she saw Xie Xi, she was taken aback for a moment and asked, "Si... Your Highness, are you here to accompany us to enjoy the autumn?"

Xie Xi laughed and said, "Yeah, it's better to meet by chance than to invite each other. Now that I've caught up, let's go out to relax together."

Lin Zisu thought it was her father who had given Xie Xi a letter, and looked at Lin Yuanzhi with a smile.

She also knew that her father had always been critical of Xie Xi, and when he mentioned it, he would always use "that kid" instead.

It was rare for his father to be so open-minded this time. Lin Zisu gave Lin Yuanzhi a flattering smile.

Lin Yuanzhi's face was very embarrassed, he pressed his fist to his lips, coughed lightly, and said: "Sister, Your Highness came to our house early in the morning, and I heard that you are going out to enjoy the autumn, so I want to stay by your side Be a follow-up."

After Lin Yuanzhi finished speaking, he was afraid that Lin Zisu might misunderstand his attitude, and immediately ordered: "Hu Po, go to the backyard and have a look, why haven't Madam and Sister Zhu cleaned up yet? By the way, there is also Eldest Young Master. Early in the morning, what was he groping for in the Tiangongyuan?"
