Shi Xiuyuan gave a general account of the materials that had been replaced in the palace, and Lu Zhichen's face grew more dismal with each word he heard.
After Shi Xiuyuan finished speaking, Lu Zhichen slumped down in his chair. After a while, he laughed twice in a mocking tone, "You just laughed at the prince, now it's my turn!"
"Your Majesty, you have the highest status, and you have the Lin family behind you, so I'm sure nothing will happen to you, right?" Shi Xiuyuan asked Lu Zhichen without giving up.
Lu Zhichen jumped up, grabbed Shi Xiuyuan by the collar and pulled him up, "Do you think the world belongs to the Lin family?! You idiot! And now you still say such things? Do you want to die faster?!"
Shi Xiuyuan's neck was strangled tightly, his face turned purple, and he was about to die. He desperately pulled Lu Zhichen's hand away until it was scratched, and then he let go of it in disgust.
Looking at Shi Xiuyuan lying on the ground like a dead dog, even if he was furious and devastated, Lu Zhichen could only find a way to settle the matter. This matter not only involved the two of them, but also had a wide range of implications.
If the prince's party seizes the opportunity to counterattack, he will be no better off than the prince who is now confined to the East Palace.
My father is always thinking about rescuing him and suppressing the Lin family!
Lu Zhichen took a deep breath and kicked Shi Xiuyuan, who was lying on the ground gasping for breath. "If you don't want to die, leave now!"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, where are you going?" Shi Xiuyuan climbed up and murmured to Lu Zhixing nervously.
"Lin Mansion!"
When the two arrived at the Lin Mansion, Old Master Lin and Lin Zong were sitting in the hall, looking at them with gloomy expressions.
“Kneel down!”
Following Lin Zong's light shout, Lu Zhichen and Shi Xiuyuan, one a prince and the other a minister, could only kneel on the ground obediently, not daring to make any complaints.
The two of them were so skilled in their movements that they didn't even think there was anything wrong.
After the old man of the Lin family and Lin Zong understood what happened, the old man remained silent, and Lin Zong immediately called his confidants.
"Dispatch the patrol battalion's personnel over there. Corral the area and don't let anyone in."
"Immediately mobilize forces outside the palace to knock down all the houses around the palace and disperse any dragons that may have appeared near the palace."
"Send the censors to expedite the impeachment of the Crown Prince. Make sure his men are unable to intervene in this matter!"
After several orders were issued, even Old Master Lin's expression improved. This son was his only son and the heir he had cultivated with great effort.
"There are some issues with this matter." Old Master Lin narrowed his eyes, a glint of light flashing through his cloudy gaze. "The Minister of Rites was removed, the Minister of War was demoted, and the affair of Marquis Wuyang was exposed. Each of these events is linked to one person."
Everyone present looked at Old Master Lin in confusion. Lin Zong exchanged glances with him. "What do you mean?"
"Prince Jing, Lu Zhixing."
"Everything seems to have nothing to do with Lu Zhixing, and it wasn't his initiative, but he's involved. This makes people suspicious." Old Master Lin stroked his long beard.
He is well aware of his grandson's abilities. Although he is blind now, his mind is not busy and his martial arts skills must still be there. Although it is difficult for him to accomplish these things, it is indeed suspicious.
But as soon as he said this, Lin Zong burst out laughing. "Father, you think too highly of King Jing. What can a blind man without military power do? Besides, we haven't received any warning from the spies."
There are also spies in Prince Jing's mansion. When Lin Zong does something, he never misses any possibility.
Old Master Lin shook his head and said, "I've taught you that you should never make a conclusion until the very last moment."
Although Lin Zong wanted to seize the power of the Lin Mansion from Old Master Lin, he also admired his father very much. After Old Master Lin said this, Lin Zong lowered his head and thought for a while, and then ordered someone to pass a message to Prince Jing's Mansion.
Looking at the two people in front of him, one is his grandfather and the other is his uncle, but they have never looked down on him. Even if Lu Zhixing is blind, they still think he has extraordinary abilities!
Lu Zhichen lowered his eyelids, his hands at his sides clenched tightly, veins bulging.
But the two people at the top never looked at him from beginning to end.
Soon, Prince Jing's Mansion received the news from the Lin Mansion.
"Your Highness, the old master misses you very much. You haven't been to the palace for a long time. I hope you can go home and visit." The one who brought the news was the old butler beside Old Master Lin. He stared at Lu Zhixing without blinking.
Even though he was in Prince Jing's mansion, the old butler's arrogant attitude was fully displayed.
Lu Zhixing nodded coldly, indicating that he understood.
Song Yushu walked up to the old butler, handed him a purse, and prepared to send him out.
Unexpectedly, after the old housekeeper took the purse filled with silver, he did not leave. Instead, he stared at Lu Zhixing and said, "Your Highness, the old master has instructed me that he wants you and me to return home together."
A small housekeeper actually looked down on a prince.
Not to mention Song Yushu couldn't help himself, even the servants beside him were unhappy. Song Yushu glanced at the old housekeeper with a forced smile, "The old master wants the prince to return to the mansion to stay for a few days. The prince still needs to clean up, right? Or is it that the things in your Lin Mansion are more than enough for a prince, so there is no need to clean up?"
Of course it was better than that of a blind prince, but the butler couldn't say it directly. He curled his lips and said, "Eunuch Song is joking."
"Everyone who knows our family knows that we never joke with strangers." Song Yushu ignored the old housekeeper's threatening look and clapped his hands. "Someone, send this person back home!"
The strong guards grabbed the old butler's arms on each side and dragged him out.
Song Yushu folded his hands and watched the old housekeeper leave the room. He waved away the servants and came to Lu Zhixing's side, staring at him. "The Lin family is suspicious of you."
"It would be abnormal not to have doubts. My grandfather is a very cautious and suspicious person." Lu Zhixing was not surprised. Although Lin Zong was arrogant, he had the meticulous Old Master Lin behind him.
Song Yushu snorted coldly, "Well, they asked us to come here. From today on, the peace of the Lin Mansion will be broken!"
Lu Zhixing propped up his head and looked at Song Yushu. He felt that this girl was really getting more and more beautiful. He completely ignored Song Yushu's question about disrupting the peace of the Lin Mansion and nodded repeatedly, "Okay."
"..." Song Yushu knew without even thinking that this guy was distracted.
I never thought that a man’s love brain could be so terrible that it could cause such a big change in a person.
"Song Chun! Pack your things!"
