Yusui Chang'an

After hearing this, Lin Yanqing and the other three were all furious and scolded the Qi family for their despicable methods.

Lin Jinan: "If you can surpass me in learning, you will only admire me. It is extremely dirty to act like this. If you really want to lose to these rat-like people, it will be hard to calm down!"

Lin Siyuan, who never speaks ill of others, also looked pale at this moment:
"This Qi family is truly inferior to every generation."

Taking advantage of the three people's anger, Lin Jinyan served them more hot tea and said calmly:

"This matter has not spread yet, and there is no evidence to investigate at this time. If the cashier spreads the rumor and refuses to admit it, the Qi family will bite him again. Yan'er has a way, but it is a bit risky. He also invites his grandfather and Dad and brother make the decision.”

In the evening, the people were still discussing the scandal in the Duke's Mansion privately, and another scandal spread rapidly from an inn.

Zhao Huaqiong, the legitimate daughter of the Minister of War, and Xiao Siming, the son of the Minister of Industry, were caught in a tryst at an inn.

It is said that the two were disheveled at the time, and because their affair was discovered, they quarreled and broke up unhappy.

At the same time, another news spread across teahouses and restaurants in Tai'an City:

Taifu Lin's grandson has won His Majesty's favor and has long been at the top of the list. Taking part in the palace examination is just a formality. His Majesty will be full of praises if he writes the first paper he writes casually. The adults present at the palace examination will inevitably be biased when judging the papers based on the holy will.

When the news came out, many students who believed it to be true were filled with indignation. They also heard that it was because Princess Yunxi had fallen in love with Lin Jinan and asked for his favor in front of His Majesty. They even scolded Lin Jinan for relying on nepotism and being unfair to other students.

Never sleep.

After hearing the news from outside, An Zhixian smiled knowingly:
"To retaliate in the same way, directly implicating that person, and forcing that person to investigate personally... I won't suffer any loss at all."

Feng Xiaoran, whose anger was still lingering, sat at the farthest seat from An Zhixian, glanced at the foolish junior brother with spring in his eyes, and rolled his eyes almost to the back of his head:
"No matter how much you praise her, she will marry someone else. You should still think about whether you want to be her brother-in-law, right?"

When An Zhixian heard this, his interest was completely lost, and he was so angry that he ignored Feng Xiaoran: "Uncle An, please go down and spread the word more, don't involve the Lin Mansion and the General Mansion, and try to involve the royal family as much as possible. In addition, Jin'an will News about last year’s disaster relief was also spread slowly.”

Ignoring Feng Xiaoran's strange muttering, An Zhixian asked about other matters:

"Have the people sent by that person found out the news that Zhangzhou was placed in Yeliang?"

An Nanfeng: "It has been found out. The news will reach the palace in about two days. The people secretly sent by King Jin to Zhangzhou also targeted Gao Liqiong based on the news we released."

When Feng Xiaoran saw that the two people were talking and ignored her, she stood up and patted the dust-free hem of her clothes:
"Uncle An, since you can find out everything, you must have found out about Taishi Yao. If there is nothing else, I will go back first."

An Nanfeng: "Master Yao? Isn't he at Qingyun Temple?"

Feng Xiaoran lazily turned around, glanced at the two of them, and slowly straightened out her clothes without saying a word.

An Zhixian looked helpless:
"What's wrong with Master Yao?"

Feng Xiaoran looked surprised:
"Hey, Lord Pluto, is there something you don't know too?"

An Nanfeng was afraid that the two of them would quarrel, so he hurriedly stepped forward to coax Feng Xiaoran with a smile, smoothed Feng Xiaoran's hair, and then asked:
"After King Kang went to Qingyun Temple, the emperor sent more people to keep an eye on Taishi Yao. The inkstone beside Taishi Yao found some old friends that he had not seen for many years, and suddenly started to investigate the Han family." (End of this chapter)
