Chapter 393 Trouble in the Palace, Xiao Jingchen and Xie Hanchuan Return to the Capital
I don't know how Lord Su and Lord Ji knew that Lin Luoxi would finish her postpartum confinement on this day.
They arrived early with their families to attend Lin Luoxi's banquet, and even gave the five children very generous gifts.
Seeing the enthusiastic smiles on the two people's faces, Lin Luoxi couldn't stand it.
After learning the truth from Xie Hanchuan, Lin Luoxi finally smiled knowingly.
Because she exposed so many corrupt officials in the capital, many official positions became vacant after those corrupt officials were arrested.
For example, Lord Ji and Lord Su, because in the past few years, Lin Luoxi has always unintentionally given the two officials performance bonuses.
During the background checks at the imperial court, it was discovered that these two individuals possessed outstanding abilities, and they were directly promoted.
Since that's the case, Lin Luoxi accepted the generous gifts from the two gentlemen without any qualms.
Not only Lord Su and Lord Ji arrived, but even local landlords and tycoons came uninvited.
Yan Shaoqun and Meng Huai'an also arrived. When they saw Lin Luoxi give birth to five children, each one looking like a fairy child from a New Year's painting, their eyes flashed with envy, jealousy, and annoyance.
Seeing Xiao Jingchen sitting calmly at Lin Lingtian's table, and merely nodding slightly when they looked over, Yan Shaoqun was filled with mixed emotions.
There's no going back in life, so they had no choice but to accept that an outstanding woman like Lin Luoxi would marry someone else.
Lin Luoxi had no idea what Yan Shaoqun and Meng Huai'an were thinking.
Having business dealings with both of them, he smiled and welcomed them to the seats of honor before going on to entertain the others.
The food ingredients and drinking water in Lin Luoxi's home were all infused with spiritual water from her space.
Everyone who comes to Lin Luoxi's house for dinner marvels at how delicious the food is.
Therefore, the amount of food consumed at a banquet is more than half that consumed when entertaining guests at other family gatherings.
As long as the guests enjoy their meal, Lin Luoxi is happy to spend a little more money.
The advantage of a full moon celebration is that when the children are tired, Lin Luoxi, as the child's mother, can retire and go back to rest.
Xie Hanchuan and the Lin family stayed behind to entertain the guests.
On the morning of the second day after the full moon celebration, Xiao Jingchen came looking for him.
"Luo Xi, a letter came from the capital. Something happened in the palace. I need your help..." He looked at Lin Luo Xi and Xie Han Chuan with red eyes.
In fact, while Lin Luoxi was still in her postpartum period, there was an urgent summons from the capital to bring Xiao Jingchen back to the palace.
But for some reason, Xiao Jingchen wanted Xie Hanchuan and Lin Luoxi to return to Beijing with him.
He knew that his two elder brothers had failed because of Lin Luoxi, which must be due to Lin Luoxi's luck and her mysterious nature.
This time, his third elder brother is planning a cavalry rebellion. If he goes back alone, he'll probably...
"What's the point of fighting over that lousy throne in your royal family? You get up earlier than the roosters and go to bed later than the dogs, and you still have to worry about someone usurping the throne every day..."
However, seeing Xiao Jingchen's red eyes, she held back from saying anything.
"How about this, Brother Hanchuan, you go to the capital with Xiao Jingchen first, and I'll go after I've settled things at home?"
The main problem is that the children are too young nowadays, and she doesn't feel comfortable leaving them at home.
She wanted to keep her by her side, but she didn't want Xiao Jingchen and Xie Hanchuan to know her secret.
"This..." To be honest, Xie Hanchuan was really worried about Lin Luoxi staying at home with the child.
"What is this? The court needs you now, it needs capable people like you. As a member of the Crimson Flame Dynasty, you should step forward when the court is in trouble."
"Besides, we don't know what the situation is like in the capital right now, or how dangerous it is. If we rashly take the child with us, the risk is too great."
"You go into the city with the Ninth Prince first, and find out the situation in the capital thoroughly. I'll take the children with me; that way, the danger will be reduced..."
"Sacrifice the small family for the greater good, don't you understand this principle..." In order to get Xie Hanchuan and Xiao Jingchen to set off, Lin Luoxi had no choice but to brainwash Xie Hanchuan.
Xiao Jingchen never expected that Lin Luoxi would say such righteous words at such a crucial moment.
Looking at Lin Luoxi, who was radiating light, Xiao Jingchen hid the regret in his eyes very well.
"Okay!" Under Lin Luoxi's brainwashing, Xie Hanchuan finally agreed to go to the capital with Xiao Jingchen first.
The two left quietly, mainly because the Third Prince had spies on them, and they were afraid that the Third Prince would find out about their return to the capital in advance and set up an ambush.
After Xie Hanchuan left, Lin Luoxi had the wet nurse and servants in the house pack up all the children's belongings.
She herself told the Lin family that she was going to inspect the business. Originally, Lin Wangshi insisted on going with her, but Lin Luoxi refused on the grounds that she had a wet nurse and servants to take care of her.
There's a problem in the capital now, so it's best not to involve the Lin family.
Besides, once she leaves Wutong Village, she plans to put all the children into her spatial dimension.
There is no place safer than space.
Seeing that Lin Luoxi insisted and that she had experts protecting her, the Lin family let her go.
After saying goodbye to the Lin family, Lin Luoxi went home and asked the family's coachman to take her wet nurse, child, and several servants with her.
The group, in three large carriages, sped off towards the capital.
It was already dark when we left Quanshan County.
Lin Luoxi pointed the way, instructing the driver to take the carriage to a wide road, explaining that the villa on that hilltop was her property, and that they should rest there for the night before setting off again.
In fact, the road that leads to is the road to Lin Luoxi's space.
Although the coachman was puzzled, he obediently drove the carriage in the direction Lin Luoxi pointed out.
As the carriage stepped onto the main road, the road behind and the surrounding scenery gradually disappeared.
The coachman, the wet nurse, and the servants did not see what was behind them; they only saw what was in front of them.
Upon seeing the gate of the manor, no one asked any questions. They drove the carriage inside, each doing their own job without saying a word.
For them, they simply follow their hosts wherever they are told to go, treating it as a vacation.
This reassured Lin Luoxi a lot, since she hadn't told them she was going to the capital when she left home.
She let them work in the villa in the space as they would in the Xie family, while she used the excuse of resting to patrol the villa.
The fact that outsiders can enter this villa space is due to a sudden upgrade that occurred when Lin Luoxi gave birth to these five babies.
When she gave birth, Lin Xingman told her the good news.
She had wanted to come in for a long time, but Xie Hanchuan was keeping a close watch on her, so she only had time to come in and check now.
After walking around for a while, Lin Luoxi realized that the villa was very large, and she began to regret her decision.
If she had known the resort was so big before she set off, she would have definitely brought the Lin family along.
