Yusui Chang'an

Chapter 1273 Leaving the Palace with a Letter
When Lin Jinyan spoke, she stared at Yufei's expression and deliberately emphasized the word "feng". Seeing that Yufei became less alert after listening to her, she knew that Yufei knew Feng Xiaoran.

Yu Fei put aside her suspicions and had a lot of words in her mind, wanting Lin Jinyan to convey them. However, thinking about her own situation, she felt ashamed to speak, as if she was homesick. She hesitated for a long time and her expression gradually became lonely.

"Your Majesty, don't worry too much. My pigeon is smart. It knows the situation and has this intention. That's the answer."

Yu Fei raised her eyes and met Lin Jinyan's encouraging and comforting look. Her panicked heart calmed down a lot. She raised her hand and held the back of Lin Jinyan's hand:

"You are such a blessed and kind child. The pigeon family will be grateful for your kindness."

When the little prince woke up, he heard that Lin Jinyan had arrived. He hurriedly urged the palace maid to change clothes and ran into the room. He saw Concubine Yu sitting alone on the couch, staring at the table in a daze:

"Mother, where is Sister Yan?"

Concubine Yu came back to her senses after hearing the voice: "He has been walking for a while, and I am afraid he has left the palace now."

The light in the little prince's eyes dimmed, and he said in disappointment and annoyance:

"If I had known Sister Yan was coming, I wouldn't have gone to catch up on my sleep."

Concubine Yu: "Mother likes such a kind and well-behaved child very much. Seeing her makes me feel better.

Don't be so sarcastic. When your sister Yan comes again in the future, I will wake you up even if you are asleep. She is willing to accompany us, which is a kindness. You must remember it in your heart."

Su'e, who was serving on the side, couldn't help but sigh when she heard the little prince's crisp response: Lin Jinyan is becoming more and more favored by the master. After finishing the work at hand, Su'e stepped out of Wangshu Palace and whispered to the leading guard for a while. However, within an incense stick of time, the movement of Wangshu Palace was transmitted to the emperor's ears through Zheng Cheng's mouth.

The emperor did not comment on the fact that Lin Jinyan was becoming more and more favored by Concubine Yu, but he was even more annoyed that the Duke's Mansion and the Queen were overreaching. He heard from Zheng Cheng that it was Qin Zongliang who hired someone to kill Lin Jinyan and framed Chu Chengyao, so he immediately sent the Jingzhao Yin Mansion to handle the matter.

Investigating this matter would not only give an explanation to the Gu and Lin families who submitted the memorial, but also be able to put a pressure on the Duke's Mansion and the Queen. After all, Chen Qingshan is Chu Chengyao's man, and others dare not or do not want to investigate Qin Zongliang, but Chu Chengyao will definitely investigate it thoroughly.

Lin Jinyan left the palace and reunited with Hong Jiu who came to pick her up. She finally relaxed her tense heart. To resolve the doubts in her heart, she checked two shops on the way as a cover and went straight to Taifeng Grain Store.

Because Wei Zhong was still recovering from his injuries, Lin Jinyan asked Hong Jiu to stay at the grain store and only took Bai Zhi into the secret passage.

After waiting for a cup of tea, An Zhixian, who had received the letter, hurried over. Without bothering to greet him, he looked at Lin Jinyan with burning eyes and said anxiously:

"I heard that Miss Lin entered the palace. Have you seen her?"

Lin Jinyan nodded. This matter concerned An Zhixian's family affairs. In order to make him less embarrassed, she told Bai Zhi to go to the secret passage and wait.

Seeing this, An Zhixian also ordered Ling Shi, who had come with him, to go to the secret passage.

When the stone door was closed, Lin Jinyan, who was about to raise her hand to take out the letter, suddenly stopped moving, turned her back with a red face and stammered:
"Boss An... could you please go outside for a moment... I'm going to get something..."

Although An Zhixian was anxious, he did not ask too many questions. He walked out of the house and closed the door considerately.

Lin Jinyan was the only one left in the room. She quickly took out the paper from her chest, straightened her clothes, suppressed her burning embarrassment, and regretted why she was so busy thinking in the carriage and didn't take out the letter earlier.
