Chapter 521 Ji Shen is more evil than her boss in her previous life
"No... no need!"
Lin Wenyao was tongue-tied when he spoke, so he wanted to pretend to be sick to make his daughter feel sorry for him.
The emperor actually asked several imperial doctors to give him acupuncture. It was so scary!
"Caomin rubbed his temples and felt that his headache was relieved a lot."
"Just relieving it is not enough." Ji Shen said with a solemn look on his face: "I have to cure it completely before I can rest assured!"
"..." Lin Wenyao was stunned and looked at his daughter with a look of help.
Seeing her father's expression, Lin Lixia almost couldn't stop laughing.
She tugged at Ji Shen's sleeve.
"Your Majesty, please stop scaring my father. Uncle Qian is still kneeling on the ground!"
Hearing Lin Lixia speak, Ji Shen didn't want to embarrass his future father-in-law anymore.
He personally stepped forward to help Qian Shichong stand up. Remembering that the other party had been ill in the past few days, he asked: "Qian Aiqing, how is your health?"
"Reporting to your Majesty, this is a long-standing problem for me. Just take a few more medicines to recover!" Qian Shichong looked flattered.
Hearing Qian Shichong say that he wanted to raise him again, Ji Shen was a little surprised and asked the two of them: "What are you doing?"
"Reporting to your Majesty, it's the common people who asked Mr. Qian to come and help!" Lin Wenyao looked cautious.
"What help?" Ji Shen frowned and looked at Lin Wenyao. Why didn't the Lin family ask him, his future son-in-law, for help when something happened?
Looking for outsiders instead?
"..." Lin Wenyao swallowed, looked at his daughter and chose to tell the truth.
"Your Majesty, your marriage to your little daughter is too urgent. In order to keep the children in order, the common people can only rush to get married at the beginning of spring."
"Your Majesty, ordinary people must not only prepare their sons to marry their wives, but also prepare their daughters to marry."
"We still have to consider the banquet for the guests. The common people really don't know how to deal with the officials in the capital, so they can only ask Mr. Qian for help!"
As Lin Wenyao spoke, he looked a little aggrieved. Not only did he have to manage his children's marriage, he also had to deal with the emperor's sudden assessment of his homework.
How many father-in-laws are as aggrieved as him in the world?
Looking at Lin Wenyao's aggrieved eyes, Ji Shen's eyes looked a little uncomfortable.
He only wanted to marry Lin Lixia as soon as possible, but he put all the pressure on Lin Wenyao.
No wonder Lin Wenyao had a headache.
"Taofu, please select some capable people from the palace to come to the Lin family to help!"
"..." After Taofu's expression froze for a moment, a complicated look appeared in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, to prepare for your marriage to your empress in such a short period of time, the manpower in the palace is somewhat insufficient!"
Ji Shen: "..."
"..." Lin Lixia was stunned, and now she regretted agreeing to Ji Shen too quickly.
Taofu said cautiously: "Miss Lin, you can leave the wedding arrangements to Aunt Rong, she will definitely arrange everything properly!"
"..." Lin Lixia paused.
She sent Aunt Rong to Qingyang City, and even if she worked hard, she couldn't catch up with her marriage.
Thinking of this, Lin Lixia no longer dared to look into Ji Shen's smiling eyes.
"Dad, I'm going to the Luo family to borrow someone!"
As soon as Lin Lixia turned around, Ji Shen grabbed her sleeve: "You don't have to go to Luo's house!"
"..." Lin Lixia had a vague guess in her mind: "Auntie Rong is back?"
"Yes!" Ji Shen took a deep look at Taofu and said to Lin Lixia: "On the day of my robbery, I will send someone to recall Nanny Rong and Ying Zhong!"
"Did you punish them?" Lin Lixia's pupils dilated for a moment and said, "This matter has nothing to do with them, they are just following orders!"
Ji Shen snorted coldly and did not answer.
This made Lin Lixia even more worried about the safety of Aunt Rong and Ying Zhong, and she looked at Taofu out of the corner of her eye.
Ji Shen's warning to Taofu made her see clearly that Taofu deliberately mentioned Nanny Rong just to save Nanny Rong through her.
Directly asking for mercy has already failed once, so I can only find another way.
"Your Majesty, no matter what happens, it is not as important as our marriage!"
"I like to hear this!" Ji Shen's eyes softened a bit, and after careful consideration, he felt that it made sense.
"Taofu, bring them here!"
"Yes!" Taofu's eyes were full of joy.
As soon as he turned around, he heard the emperor's cold voice coming from behind him.
"Taofu, I will fine you a year's salary!"
"..." Taofu's face fell instantly. When he turned around, he smiled again, looking very happy.
"Old slave, thank you for your grace!"
"..." Lin Lixia was dumbfounded. Ji Shen was even more evil than her boss in her previous life.
Deduct people's wages.
People have to be grateful!
Watching Taofu's leaving figure, Lin Lixia's eyes were full of sympathy, and she planned to find a time to privately compensate Taofu with money.
After all, Aunt Rong was punished because of her, and Taofu was fined because of Aunt Rong. In the final analysis, she should bear the blame.
Lin Wenyao lowered his voice and asked his daughter: "Xia Xia, the emperor will fine Eunuch Tao a year's salary as a punishment. Wouldn't Eunuch Tao's work be in vain?"
"It's all in vain!" Lin Lixia nodded with seriousness: "Two days ago, my grandfather also punished himself with three years' salary, and it was all in vain!"
Lin Wenyao swallowed his saliva and said, "I'm fined with salary at every turn. What's the purpose of being an official?"
Does he still need to study hard?
Sensing what her father was thinking, Lin Lixia tugged on Ji Shen's sleeve, "You scared my father!"
"..." Ji Shen's mouth twitched, not wanting to explain this issue.
"Qian Aiqing, please explain!"
"..." Qian Shichong was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to explain.
You can't say in front of the emperor that Eunuch Tao doesn't live on his salary. Just the benefits given to Eunuch Tao by ministers like them can't be spent?
He thought for a long time before he came up with an answer: "Miss Lin doesn't know something. The emperor's reward is far more than the monthly salary as punishment!"
"It's true!" Lin Lixia recalled her shock when she first heard that Ji Shen had rewarded Xu Tianxing with a small courtyard in the capital.
"Hit it with a stick and give it a sweet date. You can use it better and more skillfully than me."
Ji Shen grabbed Lin Lixia's hand and looked at Lin Wenyao and Qian Shichong.
The two looked at each other and quickly found a reason to leave, leaving the pavilion to them.
Lin Wenyao took Qian Shichong towards the door, planning to go to the Qian's house next door to hide from the emperor.
As soon as he walked to the door, he met Luo Haichang who looked happy, and he called Luo Haichang by the way.
The three of them sat down in the courtyard of Qian's house. Lin Wenyao didn't dare to go back to his family and couldn't help complaining.
"Master Qian, Master Luo, everyone else is a son-in-law who is afraid of his father-in-law. It's my turn, hey!"
Hearing Lin Wenyao's sigh, Qian Shichong didn't know where to start, so he simply didn't speak.
Luo Haichang smiled from ear to ear and added a cup of tea to both of them before speaking.
"Lin Juren, you are surrounded by blessings and don't know how blessed you are. Who in the capital doesn't envy you?"
"Why are you envious of me?" Lin Wenyao picked up the cup of tea and drank it all in one gulp: "Envy that I was forced to study by the emperor three years ago?"
"Still envious that I have to marry both my daughter-in-law and my daughter in just one week?"
"Or maybe you are envious of me... being so scared by your future son-in-law that you can't even return home?"
Luo Haichang's eyes widened and he pulled Lin Wenyao's sleeve with an embarrassed look on his face: "Lin Juren..."
Following Luo Haichang's eyes, Lin Wenyao looked back and met Ji Shen's half-smiling eyes.
He was so frightened that he loosened his grip.
The cup he just picked up fell to the ground with a 'clack' sound.
