Yusui Chang'an

Chapter 1095 Find Big Brother
General's Mansion.

After the prince left, the Gu and Lin families, except for the newlyweds, gathered together and told everyone what Zhao Xian had done, and rewarded Wei Zhong, who had discovered Zhao Xian.

Everyone else was fine, after all, they had known a lot before. The old lady and Lin Wanrong, who heard about this for the first time, were both horrified. They always felt that party struggles were far away from their own family, and they didn't expect that they would appear in their own home today.

After discussing how to be careful in the future, seeing that it was getting late, the Lin family members said goodbye and returned home.

Halfway through the journey, Lin Jinyan asked Lin Siyuan to accompany Lin Yanqing and the old lady back home first, on the pretext of going to Xianyaolou to investigate Zhao Xian.

Lin Siyuan was worried at first, but since Lin Jinan, Wei Zhonghongjiu and the guards were accompanying them, he agreed and just asked them to return home early.

In the carriage.

Lin Wanrong clasped her hands in fear:

She hooked up with Chu Chengping because she wanted to help Lin Jinyan, but the means of party struggle were so vicious, and Chu Chengping was also a prince. If she hooked up with him, would it harm the Lin family...

Noticing that something was wrong with Lin Wanrong, Lin Jinyan patted her cold hands:
"Don't be afraid, sister. It's not just our Gu and Lin families. As long as you are in the officialdom of Kyoto, the higher your official position, the more people will be watching you. No family can escape the party struggles. We just need to be cautious and be more vigilant."

Lin Jinan leaned against the carriage and sighed:

"Yeah, since we can't escape, we might as well have more chips on our side, so that we can at least have means to protect ourselves and not be slaughtered by others."

The boy's eyes were filled with worry and determination. He was worried that if he failed to prevent such a vicious move, his whole family would be implicated. He was also determined to make a name for himself in the officialdom.

The brother and sister's words calmed Lin Wanrong's panic and timidity. She bit her lip and asked:
"If I become a princess, will it be good or bad for the mansion?"

Lin Jinan blinked for a moment and said in surprise:

"What princess?" Lin Jinan's mind was in a knot until the carriage stopped. The King of Qi and his cousin? When did this happen? How come he had never heard of it?

Lin Jinan was about to ask again, but he saw the city wall through the opened curtain. Confused, he got off the carriage with Lin Wanrong and Lin Jinyan:
"Yan'er, didn't you say you were going to Xianyao Tower? Why are you here? Are you going to leave the city? In another hour, the city gates will be locked."

Lin Jinyan: "I just heard that someone found my eldest brother. I was afraid that there would be another misunderstanding and that my grandparents would be disappointed, so I decided to meet him here first."

The city gate.

A donkey cart was parked in a secluded place far away from the crowd. A thick layer of straw was spread on the cart floor. The driver, wearing patched clothes, looked at the city gate, then turned back to look at Lin Jinyun who was sleeping on the straw, and said impatiently:
"Master Li, we have been waiting for half an hour. Do you think the family will come? If we delay any longer, we won't be able to see the road when we return in the dark."

Taoist Li, who was leaning against Lin Jinyun, spat out the straw in his mouth:

"How dare you say that, Niu Er? If your donkey hadn't run away yesterday and wasn't found until noon, why would you have come so late? I would have gotten the silver by now and would be living a good life."

Niu Er scratched his head and wondered:

"My donkey used to be very obedient. It wouldn't run away even if it wasn't tied up. I think someone took it away."

Taoist Li raised his voice guiltily:
"Someone took it away and sold it or ate it long ago. How could you find it back?"

Niu Er nodded honestly: "That's true, and I have to thank you for helping me find my donkey."

The donkey turned around and complained to Niu Er: He was the one who hid me...

Niu Er: "What are you looking at? If you run around again next time, I'll beat you up."
