Early summer in Xianyang is not too hot.
Instead, it changed the chill of spring.
It was precisely on such a clear morning that
Li Lin arrived in Xianyang under the escort of the officials from Jiujiang County.
He opened his somewhat bewildered eyes and looked at the not-so-imposing city of Xianyang before him, his heart filled with endless emotions.
"Let's go, Prime Minister Li, stop dawdling!"
"Yes, at worst, I'll have a scar on my head, but I'll be a hero again in eighteen years."
"Brothers, thank you for accompanying me all this way. I am truly grateful that you have not treated me like a prisoner. Here's what I'll do, Commandant Lin, I plan to give each of you a thousand strings of cash as a token of my gratitude. Go to the Prime Minister's residence to collect it."
"Huh? Prime Minister Li, what do you mean by this? One thousand strings of cash?"
The prefectural commander who escorted Li Lin was named Lin Fu, the son of a wealthy merchant from Jiujiang. Despite his immense wealth, he was still taken aback when he heard Li Lin offer a reward of one thousand strings of cash.
Li Lin is too generous!
“Very well, Commandant Lin, please go to the Prime Minister’s residence to collect your reward. Oh, by the way, this is my seal of office; you can use this as proof.”
Li Lin, who was covered in dirt and grime, smiled and took out the seal from his pocket.
Lin Fu dared not delay and hurriedly accepted the seal of office, then handed Li Lin over to the person in charge in Xianyang.
He led dozens of his men toward the Prime Minister's residence.
The Prime Minister's residence is located to the east, next to the former residence of Zhao Gao, in a very prominent position.
It only took them a few moments to find the Prime Minister's residence.
Lin Fu hurriedly stepped forward and knocked on the door.
"who?"
"Lin Fu, Commandant of Jiujiang Prefecture".
"The Commandant of Jiujiang Prefecture?"
"Yes, it was the Prime Minister who sent me."
"Oh, wait a moment, I'll go and inform them right away."
The gatekeeper was initially suspicious, but upon hearing that the Prime Minister had sent him, he dared not delay and hurriedly ran to the main room where Manyin was.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, the Prime Minister has sent someone!"
"What? I'm coming right now!"
Man Yin, who was washing her hair, heard the announcement outside the door and didn't care about her wet hair at all.
I rushed to the front gate.
Who is this?
Lin Fu did not recognize Princess Manyin, but upon seeing the valuable clothes she was wearing, he dared not offend her and stood respectfully to the side.
"Are you Lin Fu, the Commandant of Jiujiang Prefecture? You say you were sent by Prime Minister Li? Where is Prime Minister Li now?"
"That's right. The Prime Minister should now be handed over to the Court of Justice, or he should be directly imprisoned."
"I understand. You must have had a long journey. Guards, give each of you a thousand strings of cash."
She carefully examined the seal Lin Fu handed her and immediately recognized it as Li Lin's seal. Such a private item was always kept close to the body and could not be faked.
So he generously rewarded them with a thousand strings of cash.
Lin Fu was immediately filled with gratitude and quickly knelt down to kowtow.
However, they came easily but left with difficulty; each person had to pay a thousand strings of cash.
You should know that a copper coin weighs half an ounce, which made it impossible for them to move it.
In the end, they had to find horse-drawn carriages and haul it away one load at a time.
After they left.
Man Yin closed the mansion gate, wiped the water off her head, and immediately went into the study.
"According to the three notes my husband gave me before he left, shouldn't we open the third note by now?"
She opened the third note and took a closer look.
Her expression immediately changed. "My husband is too amazing! He actually foresaw this situation half a year ago... This is incredible..."
"Someone, deliver this letter to my brother Fusu. Remember, do not deliver this letter to him personally, but to someone else in his household."
"Ah? Your Highness, what do you mean by this?"
"I don't want to say it a second time, you heard me."
"promise!"
The servant immediately took the letter and, as she instructed, delivered it to the steward of Fusu's residence.
"Following my husband's instructions on the note will probably be quite difficult. But how could my husband be so clever? How did he foresee that after he went to Chu to quell the rebellion, such a series of events would occur? How is his brain structured?"
......
The deathly prison has not seen any new inmates for a long time.
This time, a series of footsteps and shouts suddenly rang out, causing many people to open their eyes uncomfortably and turn their attention to the doorway.
That......
Isn't that the legendary figure who escaped alive from the imperial prison before?
He, he, he... why is he back again?
"Father! Father! Li Lin is here! Judging from his appearance, it looks like he's going to be locked up again."
"oh!"
Li Si showed no emotional fluctuations, and didn't even bother to open his closed eyes. His state of mind had long since been cultivated to its peak.
"Father, aren't you excited?"
"Heh, shut your stinking mouth."
"father......"
Li You was finally in a good mood, but his father poured cold water on him.
He sat down to the side with a pout, and stopped talking.
As soon as Li Lin sat down, the jailers settled him in and then left.
He turned his head and was caught off guard to find Li Si sitting diagonally opposite him.
