Yusui Chang'an

Chapter 1008 Rumors spread
Hearing rumors outside about the marriage between Lin Jinan and the little princess, Lin Yanqing was confused and called Lin Jinan and Lin Jinyan for questioning.

Lin Jinyan was well-behaved and innocent: "Yan'er doesn't know, Xu is the prince or the King of Qin. In order to slander the King of Jin, he used rumors to cause trouble."

Lin Jinan: "My grandson doesn't know either. My grandson has never had any contact with the little princess, and he has no intention of trying to follow a dragon or a phoenix."

Coming out of the study, the brother and sister with calm faces suddenly looked at each other and smiled:

"My courage is getting bigger and bigger, even my brother can risk it."

"Let's just take advantage of the situation. Now my brother doesn't have to worry about becoming the consort. If nothing unexpected happens, the little princess's marriage will be decided soon."

Inside Tai'an City.

In teahouses and restaurants, students gathered in small groups, sometimes with anger and passion, sometimes with lowered voices, criticizing the fraud in the imperial examination.

Because the emperor was implicated, he did not dare to say it clearly and only vaguely mentioned it. However, when he scolded Lin Jinan, he made a concise statement.

Those who believed the rumors to be true would be severely punished by the Gu and Lin families.

What can I say? Lin Jinan will be reincarnated. His grandfather and grandfather are both civil and military. If they can beg for mercy in front of His Majesty at will, they can have a bright future in the exam.

The Gu family kills people like crazy and uses their lives to gain a future for their children and grandchildren.

He also said that since the half-retired Taishi Yao was not in the court, Taifu Lin became the leader of the elite civil servants. He looked honest on the surface, but in fact he was sanctimonious, but secretly he protected his younger generation.

Those who consider themselves smart think that the King of Jin wants to fight for the throne and wants his sister to marry Lin Jinan and bring the Gu family into the King of Jin's camp.

The remaining half, many of whom came from Tianqi Academy, firmly believe that the Lin family is magnanimous and cannot do such favoritism. With the students who denounced the Lin family, they tried to explain each one according to their reasons. Most of the students who criticized Lin Jinan were mediocre people who were not on the list and had a high self-esteem. As soon as the rumors came out yesterday, I immediately found the best excuse for my mediocrity:

The scientific examination must be unfair. Otherwise, with my talent and knowledge, how could I not be on the list?

Therefore, when faced with students who were aggrieved by the Lin family, they were not willing to listen to even a shred of explanation. Instead, they slandered those who spoke for the Lin family. They were protected by the Lin family for their own selfish ends. They were afraid that the Lin family would be investigated and implicated in their own affairs, so they spoke for the Lin family.

I was convinced that the students of the Lin family would not be able to endure such slander, so I immediately started arguing with the other party, which made my face red and thick-necked.

During the quarrel, anger surged and a group of people all left the scene. The fight was so intense that the store owner was afraid of causing trouble and reported it to the police, so everyone was allowed to disperse.

Inside the hotel.

After learning that Zuo Yingxiong was fanning rumors and inciting students to cause trouble, Xiao Chen, who was already anxious to return to Mobei, ordered his envoys and personal entourage to pack their bags quickly.

He also urged the officials of the Ministry of Etiquette in the hotel to report to the emperor that the mother-in-law of King Cheng Mo Zhenhui was critically ill and had to return to Mobei to take care of her illness.
-
Qi family.

Hearing the news from outside, Qi Mu was surprised and happy. What he was happy about was that the effect of the rumors was better than he expected. What was surprising was that the rumors implicated the emperor. If the emperor was angered and investigated thoroughly, if clues were found, I'm afraid I'm going to cause trouble at home.

Thinking of this, Qi Mu broke into a cold sweat and immediately ordered his confidants to find the person who spread the rumors.

The confidants searched for him for a long time, but there was no trace. They concluded that the man was afraid of being investigated and hid out in fear.

Qi Mu was in a state of confusion, but there was nothing he could do if he couldn't find the person. He could only hope that the person was well hidden and no one could find him, so that he could find the Qi family.
