Lin Ziwen was skeptical, but he instructed the doctor to take good care of the person before leaving.
Back in the study, the butler had already changed his clothes and was waiting outside the door.
"The princess came by not long ago, and she was talking about dinner that evening."
Lin Ziwen nodded and said, "Go and report to the princess that I have to go out for a while and will not be able to have dinner with her. Please prepare some good wine and dishes and send them over."
"Yes, then shall we prepare the horses now?"
Lin Ziwen nodded: "Go and have someone prepare something to wait outside the courtyard. We also need to write something down in case we forget it on the way."
"Yes." The butler then withdrew.
He casually pulled a servant aside to prepare the horse, and then went to Su Lixia's place.
When Su Lixia heard that it was him, she didn't really want to see him, so she said to Xiaolian, "Just tell him that I'm not feeling well and don't want to see anyone. I need to rest for a while. If anything comes up, just let me know first."
"yes."
After Xiaolian told the housekeeper the truth, the housekeeper told her about it, and then she passed it on to Su Lixia.
"I see. These are minor matters, and there's no need to tell me personally. You could have just sent someone to tell me."
Xiao Lian murmured, "This is probably because they value the princess. Who else would receive such treatment?"
Okay.
"They said they'd send over a few dishes later, so which ones are for us?"
Su Lixia sighed softly: "Since you've already sent it, then don't let our people do it. Go back and rest."
"Yes." After saying that, Xiaolian quickly went to make arrangements in case they started preparing the dishes.
Meanwhile, another group of people who had already thought of this approach returned empty-handed and were so scolded that they couldn't lift their heads.
"Useless! All of you are useless! Where can a dying man run off to? Do you think the emperor would secretly protect him? What use are you all!" After saying that, he angrily kicked the person closest to him.
"My lord, my lord!"
"What excuse do you have?" the man shouted, pointing at him.
"It might not be the emperor; it could be someone else. The emperor would rather he be executed than protect him. Why would he go to such lengths to bring him out of the palace?"
The man snorted: "What you say is true, and it's not that I don't trust the Emperor, but what if it's just a ploy to lure the tiger away from the mountain? Is it to cover up the plot to rebel against the current Empress?"
"What you say is true, sir. But the current situation is entirely unfavorable to the monarch. And at this time, someone may be able to use him to do something even bigger, such as to overthrow the monarch. So the monarch is not very suspicious. On the contrary, certain people are extremely suspicious, sir!"
The man paced back and forth, muttering, "That's true. Logically speaking, it's very clear who has the upper hand and who has the lower hand. I was careless. In that case, there's still more to investigate."
"However, my lord, you should rest assured. Since His Majesty has already made this decision, even if there is irrefutable evidence, His Majesty will not change his mind. After all, he cannot handle the situation in the court by himself alone."
The man nodded again: "What you said is harsh, but it is the truth. Alright, alright, everyone step back. We can investigate further later. In any case, this person cannot be allowed to live."
"Yes." After saying that, the group got up and left.
