The atmosphere in the main hall of the restaurant was still a bit strange, and the rogue county magistrate was still as quiet as ever.
"Sister, do you think Daddy will have a quarrel with that rogue brother?" Lin Ruxuan looked worried.
Lin Rushi could guess how much this was, and she felt very uncomfortable. This was the prelude to their separation.
She doesn't want to leave here, but Beijing is also her home, and many of her friends miss her terribly, so she suddenly feels very confused.
At this time, a group of people came in from outside. Everyone looked up and saw that it was Shan Ji leading an eunuch, a silver-armored general and a team of armored soldiers.
"Report, County Magistrate, the person has been brought here."
"Manager Wei?"
"Haha! Long time no see, Lord Lin."
When Old Lin saw that it was Manager Wei, he quickly stood up to greet him.
Manager Wei also bowed with a kind look on his face.
"Uncle Lin!" Song Shaohong shouted happily.
"Oh? Are you Shao Hong? Oh! I haven't seen you for several years. You are a general now!" Lao Lin stroked his beard like an elder.
"Ah, sister, is this your fiancé, Brother Shao Hong?" Lin Ruxuan screamed in surprise. Suddenly, she was stared at and quickly covered her mouth.
Liu Mang looked at the Lin family's young lady and the other in surprise. "What fiancé?"
Lin Rushi's eyes suddenly became moist, her face flushed, and she lowered her head, not daring to speak.
Liu Mang stood up and walked over, looking at Lin Rushi with a serious expression. "You said that pretty boy is your fiancé?"
"Yeah!" Lin Rushi lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Liu Mang. She could only nod in a mosquito-like voice.
Oh my god! Is this so ridiculous?
Song Shaohong also saw Lin Rushi at this time and hurried over.
"Rushi, ok, long time no see, are you okay?"
"Oh, Song Shaohong, stay away from my sister." Lin Ruxuan pulled Lin Rushi and wanted to walk to Liu Mang.
Lin Rushi lowered her head and let her sister pull her over.
When Song Shaohong saw this, he was shocked and hurriedly stopped Lin Rushi.
"Ah! Song Shaohong, what are you doing? Get out of my way." Lin Rushi was stopped by Song Shaohong and was afraid of being misunderstood by Liu Mang, so she hurriedly ran away.
At this time, Lao Lin and the others also noticed it and hurried over.
Steward Wei said with a smile, "General Song, you are anxious, aren't you? We just met."
Old Lin could see clearly that his daughter was anxious to get rid of Song Shaohong.
Then look at the youngest daughter standing intimately beside Liu Mang.
The speculation in my mind was confirmed.
Could it be that this bastard has seduced both of my daughters?
What a sin!
"Ahem! Shao Hong, let her go first. You still have a few months to get married. Why are you in such a hurry now?"
"No, Uncle Rushi..."
Old Lin lowered his hand to interrupt, and Song Shaohong moved away reluctantly. Lin Rushi immediately ran to Liu Mang's side, pouting and looking at him with a wronged look.
Seeing this, Liu Mang was certain in his heart and thought to himself: The young lady of the Lin family still has her heart with me.
He withdrew his hand that was about to draw the gun, smiled and gave her a reassuring look.
Lao Lin felt that he couldn't go on like this, so he decided to find out why the court wanted him this time before making a decision.
So he hurriedly introduced himself to Steward Wei, "Here, Steward Wei, this is Liu Mang, the magistrate of Taoyuan County."
"Liu Mang, this is Wei Wuji, the chief steward of the imperial palace."
Wei Wuji was surprised. He thought the Taoyuan County Magistrate should be at least 40 or 50 years old, but he turned out to be only a young man of 22 or 23 years old.
Then he bowed to Liu Mang. "Haha, I've heard a lot about you, County Magistrate."
"Hello, hello!" Liu Mang casually bowed and greeted.
Old Lin pulled over Song Shaohong, who was looking at Liu Mang and Lin Rushi with anger, and patted him gently, signaling him to calm down.
"This is Song Shaohong, my eldest daughter's fiancé..."
Suddenly I didn't know what kind of official he was, so I looked at Song Shaohong and asked
Song Shaohong suddenly relaxed and said proudly, "Listen carefully, I was appointed by the new emperor as the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard, a third-rank official."
Liu Mang just scratched his face and ignored him.
He simply looked at Steward Wei and said, "Steward Wei, right? May I ask what brings you to Taoyuan City this time?"
Chief Steward Wei could see that the county magistrate did not think highly of the imperial court, so he did not want to waste any more words.
"Haha! This time I came here on the orders of the new Emperor, Empress Yan Yang."
Then he looked at Lao Lin and took out a yellow imperial edict from his sleeve.
"Master Lin, please prepare the case and receive the order!"
Upon hearing this, the young lady of the Lin family and Mrs. Lin hurried to Old Lin's side. Old Lin flicked his sleeves and the whole family knelt down together.
"The guilty minister Lin Zhengye, please obey my orders."
Chief Officer Wei saw that only Lao Lin's family and Song Shaohong were kneeling, while everyone else was walking beside Liu Mang with a look of watching melons.
They were really eating watermelon. The little bear, the blind monkey and the other two were cracking watermelon seeds. The pheasant took a piece of watermelon from the table and ate it while looking over here, just like those gossipy citizens.
A cold gleam flashed across Wei Zongguan's eyes, but he then held back.
"By the providence of Heaven, the Emperor decrees that Lin Zhengye..."
Listening to some people praising Old Lin's achievements, Liu Mang felt sleepy for a while, until he looked at the figure of the young lady from the Lin family and felt relieved.
"...I appoint Lin Zhengye as Minister of State Affairs. ~Yan Yang Year One."
After Chief Steward Wei finished reading, he looked at the shocked Lin Zhengye with a gentle expression.
"Master Lin, please accept the order!"
Lin Zhengye recovered from his shock and immediately accepted the order with joy: "I obey your order. Long live the emperor."
"Congratulations, Lord Lin. From now on, you will be a cabinet elder." President Wei handed over the imperial edict with a smile and helped Lord Lin up.
"Congratulations, Master, on becoming a cabinet minister."
"Hehe, congratulations, Daddy."
The whole family felt as if the clouds had cleared and the sky was blue. Not only was he reinstated, but he was also promoted from a third-rank official to a first-rank official.
