Yusui Chang'an

Chapter 1145 Whereabouts of the Child
Qin Zongliang suppressed his coldness, teased his son in his arms and walked into the house, looking like a gentle and loving father. Seeing this, the Crown Princess went forward to greet him with a smile, and the family of three was happy together.

Qin Zongliang called Lin Jinyan, who was bowing, and put the child down on the ground:

"Hua Ling treats you as her sister, so there is no need to be polite here. The fault of today is all Zong Heng's. Zong Heng is simple-minded and was instigated by Duan Zhi, which led to the misunderstanding.

Although it was unintentional, he actually hurt your maid. I have already scolded him. The medical expenses will be paid by the Duke's Mansion. Duan Zhi listens to his brother-in-law, Minister Qi, the most. The prince has just taken over the Ministry of Justice. I will also ask the prince to ask Minister Qi for an explanation.

As for the child, I just asked Zong Heng and the servants he brought with him. No one saw him. I have just sent Xue Ren to check. If there is any news about the child, I will inform you immediately."

Qin Zongliang was so easy-going that Lin Jinyan naturally believed him. She kept saying that she was not surprised and sent someone to find the child to thank Qin Zongliang.

Qin Zongliang looked at his son and smiled lovingly:
"I am also a father, and I cannot bear to see such a young child suffer."

Lin Jinyan: "The prince is truly a kind person. He is not only kind to his relatives and siblings, but he also personally takes care of the deceased servants and their widows. No wonder the people of Kyoto always praise the prince."

Sitting in the carriage back home, Lin Jinyan's smile faded instantly. She glanced at the pile of boxes and medicinal herbs in the carriage, and couldn't help but become even more wary of Qin Zongliang.

If no one knew what kind of person he was, no one would be wary of him because of his casual and friendly attitude that didn't seem like a disguise.

It’s no wonder that in his previous life, Chu Chengyao regarded him as a serious threat.

If Chu Chengyao had not been so well hidden, Qin Zongliang would not have been defeated by him.

In the evening, Qin Zongheng, who had been lying on the ground for most of the day, was finally untied. His limbs were numb and he collapsed to the ground. Although the weather was getting warmer, Qin Zongheng, who had been lying on the cold ground for a long time and was helped to sit on a chair by a servant, sneezed several times in a row.

Qin Zongliang walked in and stood still:
"Have you calmed down a bit?"

Seeing Qin Zongheng nodding with his neck shrank, Qin Zongliang revealed the child's whereabouts:

"Your son has been found. He was left at the back door of the General's Mansion. He has now been taken in by the General's Mansion. The woman who adopted the child, Ding Xiang, was also sent to the General's Mansion by Lin Jinyan just now.

Although it was not found out who placed the fire there, someone nearby had seen Cao Xian next to Song Yi.

Now, if I pass the child away, I will only provoke you to have an antagonism with the General's Mansion. The child can only be saved in the General's Mansion. If you want to make trouble, even if the King of Jin does not take action, I will take action for the sake of the Duke's Mansion."

Qin Zongheng dragged his numb legs, struggled to get up, and repeatedly promised that he would not do anything rash.

Qin Zongliang glanced at him calmly, turned around and went straight to the study. After waiting for a while, the prince who had visited Duke Qin came into the room.

The two discussed for an hour or so before the prince left. Although his expression was indifferent, there was a light of confidence in victory in his eyes.

As Lin Jinan gradually became familiar with the Hanlin Academy, the day for Lin Jinyan School to officially open arrived in the blink of an eye.

Although the land rewarded by the emperor and Ruoshui Villa are outside the city, they are only ten miles away from the city gate. There are hot spring villas everywhere nearby, and the wild flowers all over the mountains make the already pleasant scenery even more lively.

In Kyoto, almost all the daughters who had been to the Lin family or talked to Lin Jinyan came, regardless of their purpose.
