Just as he was about to ask everyone to brainstorm and come up with some good ideas.
A loud, joyful voice suddenly came from the doorway.
"My lord, my lord, I am so happy!"
"Great joy?"
"Yes, just as you predicted, Li Lin's eyes widened when he saw Miss Li Yao. And now he's already invited her back to his own residence!"
"Did you see it with your own eyes?"
"Yes, sir, I saw it with my own eyes!"
"Hahaha, Heaven is helping me! I had planned everything, but I never expected Li Lin to fall for it so quickly. I thought he would hold out for several hours, but now, before it's even dark, he's already brought Li Yao back to his mansion. If Li Yao then deliberately offers herself to him, playing hard to get, how will he be able to resist?"
Ying Lin was overjoyed, feeling certain of victory!
The officials who were waiting for news couldn't help but show their joy, and they congratulated him one after another: "Congratulations, Lord Zongzheng! Congratulations, Lord Zongzheng!"
At this moment, Taishi Teng's expression remained largely unchanged as he sat in his seat.
On the contrary, he always felt that something was wrong.
If Li Lin was truly a lecherous man, how did he pass Princess Manyin's test?
He knew that Li You hadn't passed the test back then.
That's why he felt something was off.
The Imperial Palace.
The First Emperor is reviewing and approving memorials.
Suddenly, Princess Manyin ran over very quickly and said urgently, "Father, something terrible has happened! Li Zhongcheng has been framed! He has probably fallen into someone's trap, and they want to ruin his reputation!"
"What trap? What reputation? Manyin, what are you talking about? I don't understand."
The First Emperor was completely bewildered. He raised his head, his eyes filled with confusion.
"Father, a eunuch just came to report that Vice Minister Li... Vice Minister Li was seen hugging and kissing intimately with his childhood sweetheart, the daughter of Prime Minister Li Si, in the street..."
"What? Is that true? Is it real or fake? Manyin, how did you determine that?"
"Father, the fact that Vice Minister Li passed my test back then proves that he is by no means a shameless lecher. It is highly likely that someone deliberately framed him. I beg you, Father, to take me to Vice Minister Li's residence right now and find out the truth!"
"Cough cough!"
The First Emperor was somewhat taken aback. He never expected that his most beloved daughter would so fiercely protect that scoundrel Li Lin.
It really embarrassed him.
However, to be fair, Li Lin is indeed a pervert. If he really did such a thing, the First Emperor wouldn't be too surprised. It's just that the timing isn't right now.
The First Emperor was somewhat surprised that Man Yin trusted him so much.
"Daughter, what's so good about that scoundrel? Why are you protecting him like this? What if I take you to his residence later and catch him in bed with another woman? Wouldn't that break your heart?"
“Father, I believe that Li Zhongcheng would never do such a thing. He is so smart that even if he really has some past feelings for Li Yao, he would not choose to make peace at this time. Otherwise, if word gets out, wouldn’t he lose his head?”
"Hahaha, you, you, sigh, how did I give birth to such a clever daughter? If your brother Fusu had even half your intelligence, I wouldn't be so worried about him!"
The First Emperor couldn't help but laugh. He knew what kind of person Li Lin was, so he knew that Li Lin wouldn't risk his life for a small gain. This guy was extremely afraid of death, so how could he possibly ignore his own safety because of beauty?
"Father..."
"Very well, I will accompany you to Li Zhongcheng's residence!"
......
The Censor-in-Chief's Office.
Because it was recently purchased, there aren't many servants assigned to it yet.
There were only a few maids brought from their hometown, and the number of them was not large, only four or five.
In addition, the furniture here is not yet fully purchased, so it is basically quite deserted.
At this time.
Li Lin took Li Yao directly to his room instead of heading straight to the living room.
This really surprised Li Yao.
"Brother Li Lin, why did you bring me to this place? This seems to be your bedroom, right? It's not appropriate for a girl like me to be alone with you here, a man and a woman."
"Bang!"
Li Lin slammed the door shut, making a very loud noise due to the force of his movements.
This caused her expression to change, and her chest to pound as if countless deer were swarming inside her.
He turned around, revealing a look of unbearable longing, as if he hadn't seen a woman in years. As he slowly approached, he teased, "Yaoyao, what's wrong with us? We're childhood sweethearts. We used to hug and cuddle when we were little. Now, naturally, we should do what a married couple should do!"
"What? You, you, you! What are you going to do to me? Brother Li Lin, you're so mean!"
A hint of fear appeared on her jade-like face, but she also put on a show of feigned reluctance. To be honest, Li Lin was already getting restless.
It was as if he were about to transform into a wolf and roar across the heavens.
