Chapter 42
At this time, Lin Chengqing had already come to greet her, but he didn't know where Xu Ruyi was going this time, so he didn't rush to welcome her into his courtyard.

Xu Ruyi greeted after arriving at the gate of the courtyard: "How is Young Master Lin recuperating?"

Lin Chengqing replied: "It's much better, thank you sister Zhaorong for your concern."

At this time, Xu Ruyi raised her head and said to Jingxi: "Brother, let's go in and sit for a while? Don't you still have some details about the case to ask him?"

Having said all this, Jing Xi took the initiative to talk to Lin Chengqing: "Then let's go in and sit for a while?"

Although Lin Chengqing was surprised that Xu Ruyi was willing to enter his courtyard this time, but since she had spoken, he would not refuse the opportunity to bring their relationship closer.

Lin Chengqing hurriedly replied: "What are you doing standing there? Come in and sit down!"

After saying that, Xu Ruyi and Jing Xi entered the courtyard together, but Xu Ruyi didn't go in, and suggested: "Let's just sit in the courtyard. Anyway, there are only three of us, and there are no outsiders, here to discuss the case." It shouldn't be a problem."

This is very kind, she and Jing Xi are of course not outsiders now, but Lin Chengqing is somewhat flattered by including Lin Chengqing together.

Lin Chengqing hurriedly sought Jing Xi's opinion, and asked, "My lord, what do you think?"

Jing Xi replied: "I heard that my brother and sister are sick, and they are still taking medicine recently. The room is stuffy and hot. I am afraid that my brother and sister will not be able to stay there for a long time."

Lin Chengqing heard this, and hurriedly answered: "That's right, sister Zhaorong is the darling of the big lady, and I heard that the big lady told sister Zhaorong to go out more often and bask in the sun. Now The weather is just right, it is most suitable for us to stay in the yard."

Xu Ru thought that Lin Chengqing had said so much about himself, so he replied: "Mr. Lin should also take good care of his body. On the way, I heard from my elder brother that there are Taoist priests who will come to practice today. I believe these old Taoists will be able to expel the old Taoists from Xiangzhou. Come back evil spirit."

"Sister Zhaorong, don't worry, these Taoist priests have advanced spells, so there must be no problem."

It's strange to say that Lin Chengqing didn't believe in the theory of evil spirits at first, but recently the Taoist priests invited by the mansion all said that there were evil spirits in the mansion.

This person talked a lot, and gradually Lin Chengqing himself gradually believed it.

Anyway, they all said that evil spirits can be eradicated, and the Xiangfu is not short of money for doing things, so let them do things!
Lin Chengqing was more concerned about Xu Ruyi's current situation.

"Sister Zhaorong, how has your son-in-law treated you these two days?"

Hearing this, Xu Ruyi sighed helplessly and said: "That's the way it is. He's babbling all day long, and he is not sensible at all. I have specially instructed him today not to allow him to come out to cause trouble. Today he It shouldn't bother us."

Lin Chengqing twitched the corner of his mouth, and said helplessly: "As for that brat, I don't even want to argue with him. As for the door he smashed, I solved the problem that day, but I didn't do it for him, it was purely out of fear. It disturbed you, Sister Zhaorong! You know, Sister Zhaorong, I really can't see you being wronged, ever since you got married, I've been worried all day long, lest that little brat bump into you!"

Xu Ruyi laughed lightly: "Doesn't this all mean that he is doing something for the aunt. As long as his financial resources and connections can increase the influence of the aunt, that's enough."

Lin Chengqing originally wanted to continue listening, but when Xu Ruyi said this, she stopped talking.

It made Lin Chengqing continue to ask: "I really don't understand, what kind of power does the aunt want to increase to wrong you so much?"

When he asked here, Xu Ruyi stopped answering, she looked up at Jing Xi, and said: "Grievance is not counted, he is just naive, like a child, just take care of him more." .In fact, his nature is quite good. Isn’t it? Brother?”

Jing Xi didn't want to get involved in their discussion of right and wrong behind their backs, even if he was talking about his incompetent younger brother, but he couldn't say anything more, so he echoed: "My younger brother is still young after all, and in two days' time he will be able to talk about it. Maybe I can improve a little in the next year."

On this matter, the three of them reached a consensus.

Lin Chengqing also repeatedly promised that he would not argue with the little son-in-law, so as not to disturb Xu Ruyi's normal life.

Lin Chengqing couldn't be happier that Xu Ruyi took the initiative to come over to visit Lin Chengqing, but this visit, she mainly accompanied Jing Xi to sort out the details of the case.

Jing Xisui also revealed the progress of the case.

"Yesterday, there was news from Xiangzhou that an assassin's body was found. Wu Zuo went for an autopsy, but he was killed by others. This is a bit suspenseful. The mastermind behind the scenes actually left someone to clean up the remaining clues. He is in the middle of the court, and he has some understanding of the situation of editor Lin. Editor Lin, please think about it, who have you offended?"

How did Lin Chengqing know who he had offended?

As the nephew of the current prime minister, Lin Xiang would definitely decide for him if something happened to him, who would dare to do anything to him?
Lin Chengqing asked: "It really wasn't that brat who did it?"

Jing Xi replied with a smile: "It's not that I was talking about him. My younger brother, I never dared to wield swords, let alone hire these assassins. If he knew how to gather forces, he wouldn't be in business all year round. circle, far away from the imperial court, there are so many territories in the frontier that need to be guarded, and staying anywhere for two years is enough for him to return to Beijing and become an official after meritorious service."

To put it bluntly, Jing Yu was so useless that the possibility was directly ruled out. Hearing this, Lin Chengqing also felt that he didn't have that kind of thought, let alone that kind of brain.

At this time, a young servant came to report: "My lord, Taoist Gao is here."

Lin Chengqing waved his hand and said, "Understood, I will be there in a while."

After the little servant retreated, Lin Chengqing sighed helplessly: "See? Now because of this matter, the Prime Minister's Mansion will invite a practitioner every now and then. Sometimes the ritual is tiring and cumbersome, and I have to follow along." They gesticulated in circles, and my young master panicked when he thought of this incident. Sister Zhaorong, we really feel sorry for each other now! We are all wronged!"

Xu Ruyi replied casually: "The grievances on this side of the palace are easy to understand. When the things that the aunt wants are almost accumulated, I will be able to reconcile. But Mr. Lin, you really need to pay more attention. The aunt is still waiting for you to return to the court as soon as possible! Let's go, let's go to see the Taoist priest, don't let him wait too long."

As Xu Ruyi said, he suggested that Lin Chengqing should do the practice first.

Jing Xi also echoed: "Editor Lin's health is important, and this kind of thing really cannot be delayed."

Now that they all said that, Lin Chengqing had no choice but to get up and go to see Taoist Gao.

On the way to meet Daoist Gao, Lin Chengqing asked: "What are you studying, Madam? I often go to Ci'an Palace to visit Madam, why have I never heard anything about it?"

Xu Ruyi chuckled lightly: "It was not something to publicize to the outside world, of course you wouldn't know about it. Recently, my palace is also helping the aunt to deal with it. I came to visit you today, and I have to continue to help the aunt to tidy up in two days. The warehouse in the backyard of Ci'an Palace, no, the key is still in my hands."
