In a blink of an eye, it was the Qiqiao Festival on the seventh day of July. Princess Yanling, Gu Ruizhou and Gu Yichen came to pick up the Lin Jinyan brothers and sisters in person, and Lin Yanqing and the old lady had no choice but to agree.
Before leaving, the old lady said uneasy:
"Although the festivals are lively every year, many children get lost. You must be careful when going out. Ask Lin Song to arrange for more servants to follow, and Agate, Hong Jiu, Gu Mo, and Zhou Mo will follow."
Gu Ruizhou: "Don't worry, old lady, I will take good care of you. The General's Mansion and Prince Xiang's Mansion have arranged a lot of guards, just a few personal guards."
After a few people left, Lin Yanqing said:
"If Song Yi is here, with his skills, I can feel more at ease."
The old lady sighed: "Who says it's not the case? It's my fault that I didn't ask clearly because I got angry after hearing Yuexue's words that day."
Lin Yanqing: "That kid Yuexue is far less upright than Yan Er, so he thinks things are so miserable."
Old lady: "You are still young and your character has not yet been determined. You can change it after a good education."
Lin Yanqing: "I hope..."
On the carriage, Lin Jinyan and Princess Yanling sat together. Princess Yanling never stopped talking since she got on the carriage:
"Lin Jinyan, look at the nails I asked Zhili to dye for me this morning. Do they look good?"
"It looks good, and the princess's hands look good too."
"Zhili is the best at combing your hair and dyeing your nails. I'll let her do it for you another day."
"Okay, why don't you see the young prince and the fourth prince come out to play with you today?"
"Brother Four Emperors came to the palace to accompany Concubine Ming. My third brother had promised to accompany me to play out. Yesterday morning, he suddenly said that he had something to do. He had eaten the morning meal and left. I don't know when he will come back."
The sky was getting dark, there were more and more people, and the carriage was so crowded that everyone had no choice but to get off the car in advance and walk.
Gu Ruizhou took Lin Jinan out of the carriage, told the driver to stop the carriage at a teahouse not far away and waited, pulling Lin Jinan and everyone towards the river.
Qin Zongliang was talking to someone while leaning against the window of the teahouse. He looked at Gu Ruizhou and others downstairs and couldn't help but take a closer look.
After the confidant saw off the guest, he came back and reported:
"Your Majesty, you have already put Minister Qiu on the carriage and put his things in his car. He is just a minister, can he handle the matter?"
Qin Zongliang: "The Minister of the Ministry of Punishment avoids seeing the Duke's office, and he has obviously joined Chu Chengyao's camp. Since he can't be used by me, I can only find someone who wants to be the Minister to work for me."
"The prince is wise."
Qin Zongliang's eyes narrowed slightly: "The Yin of the Jingzhao Prefecture who is so diligent in investigating the corpse case is probably one of Chu Chengyao's people. This Chu Chengyao really does not let go of anyone who can be used, and bites the Duke's Mansion so hard. His Majesty is so laissez-faire, if he really finds out something, your Majesty may take advantage of it."
"Do you want me to do it?"
Qin Zongliang raised his hand to stop him: "I can't even pick it clean at this time. Chu Chengyao left no room for the Duke's palace. It must be for the sake of the crown prince's position. Xue Ren, I remember if Chu Chengyao sent someone to follow Lin Grandmaster’s little granddaughter?”
Xue Ren said respectfully: "It is true."
Qin Zongliang: "I heard that the Gu family loves the two children of the Lin family very much. The toddler I saw General Anbei holding just now should be the child of the Lin family. Go and check, is Chu Chengyao still sending people to follow him? If he is still following, Then what happened to this girl because of Chu Chengyao's people, I think the Gu Lin family will definitely be happy to thank His Highness the Second Prince."
