Daming: Wanted to be a small landlord, but was forced to ascend the throne

Chapter 266
The internal officer stepped back.

Lin Tong briskly walked indoors.

"Lin Tong, a thousand households of Jinyiwei, pays his respects to the prince."

Lin Tong bowed in salute.

"Brother Lin is not overly polite, he is one of his own."

Said a pleasant and familiar voice.

"Lin Tong, your serious look is quite interesting, hahahaha!"

A more familiar voice laughed.

Lin Tong looked up.

"Ziming, Brother Yun, why are you here?"

Seeing the two familiar people in front of him, Lin Tong cried out in surprise, and stepped forward to pat Wang Yun's shoulder hard.

"Lin Tong, can you be lighter? It's not like you don't know the strength of your palm."

Wang Yun complained and slapped Lin Tong hard.

This slap was not light, but Lin Tong didn't think it was that much.

"Ziming, I'm here to see Prince Xing's son, why are you also in Prince Xing's mansion, and you still tricked me out! You are really good! Tell me, do you know Prince Xing's mansion? Are you also very close? This seems to be Yuanzi of Prince Xing, could it be that you are familiar with Prince Xing?"

Lin Tong asked a series of questions.

"Lin Tong, I have to tell you one thing, Ziming... Ziming is the son of Prince Xing."

Wang Yun said with a serious expression.

"What? What are you kidding? Brother Yun, are you kidding me?"

Lin Tong said with some disbelief.

He thought Wang Yun was joking.

But Wang Yun usually makes small jokes in life, and usually doesn't make such big jokes.

And these things are not to be joked about.

He looked at Wang Yun's serious expression, and then at Qin Shao's solemn gaze.

"Ziming, you...you are really the son of Prince Xing? This...what the hell is going on?"

Lin Tong felt that this matter was still like a dream, and he didn't believe it was real.

The good brother Qin Shao I knew turned out to be the son of King Xing, what is this called?

Qin Shao didn't speak.

Wang Yun eloquently told Lin Tong about Qin Shao's identity.

Of course, there are many things hidden in it.

For example, Qin Shao knew his identity very early on.

For example, Qin Shao had a close relationship with King Xing early in the morning.

He only said that he was adopted by his servants, and later recognized by King Xing, but Zhu Houcong and Princess Xing did not want him to return to the palace.

Disappointed, he simply refused to recognize each other, and wanted to fight for a future through the scientific examination.

It's just that Zhu Houcong died of a sudden illness. King Xing prayed, and King Xing's lineage was about to die out, so he had to come back to recognize his ancestors.

Also, he participated in the scientific examination for the purpose of living, just to buy land for rent-free.

And don't plan to take the test and so on.

Lin Tong was a little dumbfounded.

"I know that you are someone close to the emperor. You eat people's salary, and you should do things for others. Brother Tong, I didn't intend to hide it. I went to Xuanfu to sell medicinal materials. I came back to make money and serve my father. Here, Lu Zhidi lives in a peaceful corner. We should have been frank when we met each other once, but it’s just a family scandal, and now I happen to meet you on a business trip, so I will definitely explain it to you.”

"It's just that Liang Kun is a few people who are eager for quick success. I am worried that he has selfish intentions and will accuse me of making peace in the palace in front of the emperor. In fact, the Ministry of Rites has a record of our family's affairs. You can see it at a glance. You will be truthful when the time comes." Just report."

Qin Shao said with a sigh.

"Ziming, you... what kind of person do you think I am?"

Lin Tong blushed angrily and had a thick neck.

"Lin Tong!"

"Brother Tong?"

The two looked at Lin Tong's distraught expression and were worried.

"You...you are too much! I regard you as the best brothers, but you let me report you! You are looking down on me, Lin Tong, and humiliating me! Ziming, do you know the seriousness of this problem? Even now The clan is allowed to participate in the scientific examination, but you are the first to take the scientific examination, and you have indeed concealed your identity!"

"The emperor is an upright person, but if Liang Kun finds out about this matter, he will report it with embellishment. Once the emperor gets angry, do you know the seriousness of the problem?"

"The lesser one is because you have to do it, the more serious one is that you have a conspiracy in Xingwangfu! If this was a few years ago, this would be beheading..."

"You actually asked me to report Ziming! Isn't this trapping me injustice? I, Lin Tong, am no longer a thing. Wang Yun and I have been friends for many years. Ziming, you are the one who took care of my old mother when I was away. This kind of kindness is mine. Don't forget anything, let alone betray!"

"Don't worry, I'll just pretend I haven't seen you! Let's stop here, we're still good brothers. I don't know any prince Xing, I only know Ziming and Brother Yun."

Lin Tong stood up and waved his hands and said.

"Brother Tong, you have to report this matter! If Liang Kun is allowed to report it, the relationship between you and us will definitely not be clear."

Qin Shao said solemnly.

"Ziming, you... aren't you asking for trouble for yourself? Are you impatient to live? What to pick is clear. Since we are grasshoppers on the same rope, then keep this matter a secret and I will treat it as nothing. I saw you in this Shizifu!"

Lin Tong's face turned red with anger again.

"Lin Tong, don't worry, let the prince explain himself."

Wang Yun hurriedly pulled Lin Tong to sit down.

"Brother Tong, I guess we can't hide this matter now! I didn't want to go back to this palace before. I just wanted to have a future in the scientific examination. If I passed the examination, I could go to other places to be a county magistrate. I just wanted to live an ordinary life." , I don’t want to get to know you, but even the emperor, there are so many mistakes.”

"Before I went to Shangjing, I actually returned to Anlu Prefecture after finishing my work. I didn't want to have more and more things. Now you are here under orders. If we continue to hide it and the emperor finds out, the misunderstanding will be even greater."

"Instead of this, why don't I just write down the situation, and you report the truth, so that we will be more sincere, and the emperor may understand us. If we hide this, it will be a thunderstorm, and it may explode one day, not only implicated Me, and even you, instead of doing this, let's spread it out."

Regarding this matter, Qin Shao thought about it for a long time, and felt that it was the only way to let it go.

It's just that Zhu Houzhao is really not sure what attitude Zhu Houzhao will have, after all, being with you is like being with a tiger!
Now Zhu Houzhao is fighting with those courtiers in Shangjing.

Through the situation brought by Lin Tong, Qin Shao knew that Zhu Houzhao's current life in the palace was also a mess.

The attitude of those civil servants is completely slack now, let him do everything, and he is too busy to go around.

He really wants to make decisions, such as increasing financial investment in border defense, but the cabinet and the six ministries ignore those things, and keep crying about being poor, saying that there is no silver.

Zhu Houzhao is now in a state of desperation.

According to Lin Tong, he came this time not only to condolences to Prince Xing's mansion, but also to visit his own home, hoping that he could return to Shangjing as soon as possible and help him more.

In this situation, he had to weigh whether he should go to Beijing or not.

"Ziming, don't worry, even if Liang Kun and I come out on this errand this time, it's still very easy to hold him! Don't worry, the emperor said that the son is not in good health and is busy with the funeral, we just go Just meet King Xing."

"You arranged for me to see King Xing. I will take Liang Kun there tomorrow. If I try to meet the one who acts, I will bring that kid back to Beijing so that he won't stay and cause trouble! And you, you said that your aunt passed away just for a reason , just say that you carried the coffin back to your hometown and failed to see you.”

"As for you, your loved one just passed away. You can use the reason of filial piety. Don't go back to Beijing. Everything is safe and confidential. What do you think?"

Lin Tong eagerly gave advice.

Qin Shao nodded with some emotion.

He and Wang Yun secretly glanced at each other.

This matter was too big, even though the two believed Lin Tong, they still tested him just to be on the safe side.
