Chapter 57: Mulan Villa
After walking on the official road, the procession out of Beijing is no longer a cramped and narrow building in the city, but a roadside scenery with continuous mountains and rivers.
From the capital to the Mulan paddock, it takes two or three days before and after, day and night. The royal procession stopped at a place very close to the Rong Kingdom to reorganize and continue to their destination.
After three days and two nights of walking, everyone finally came to the foot of Mulan Villa at noon on the third day. The emperor stayed in it, and the rest of the people firmly surrounded the emperor in the middle in a radial shape according to their dignity and humility.
Lin Qiantan had never been to the Mulan paddock, but looking at this posture, she also understood the battle of Emperor Tianlong. It is basically impossible to get close to the emperor openly and carry out an attack.
So, in the previous life, how did the Dongping County Mansion manage to break through the layers of guards and transport a group of dead soldiers into the range closest to the emperor's position?
Lin Qiantan didn't see it with her own eyes, so it's really not good. All that could be done was to remind the emperor to take precautions in advance through the Chu family many times. In the previous life, there was information about Emperor Tianlong's near-assassination in the Mulan paddock, and the information was blocked.
Even in the bloody purge, Emperor Tianlong specially destroyed a large number of historical archives to maintain his image as a wise and martial emperor, so that later historians had no history to record, so they could only hurriedly use such a general and vague sentence as "In the autumn of the tenth year of Tianlong, the emperor was attacked, and then returned to Beijing safely".
Although the truth is unknown, it is only known that the assassin's blade almost had a chance to pass through the emperor's body, but judging from the results of the destruction of many families later, what made a generation of emperors angry and had to kill people to vent their anger.
Unfortunately, Lin Qiantan's grandfather's family was wiped out in that bloodbath.
The emperor traveled in July and returned to Beijing that month, and for several months, everyone was in danger.
When Lin Qiantan first woke up on the boat, he once thought that it would be enough to cut off the correspondence between the Chu family and the Dongping County Palace. But before leaving Beijing, the account book she got from Chu Shen made Lin Qiantan realize that what she was thinking was simpler.
Chu Shen carefully buried the life-saving treasure underground, it was really not an ordinary thing. Lin Qiantan didn't know if she didn't see it, but after seeing it, she realized that the Chu family had secretly had so many astronomical money transactions with Yan Shao.
Yan Shao recruited strategists, and even recruited troops and horses, whenever he had some substantive actions, he would always reach out to the Chu family to ask for silver. And the Chu family, taking into account the relationship with Yan Yong back then, as long as Yan Shao opened his mouth, they would give it.
Such a terrible thing, Lin Qiantan naturally destroyed it when he got it, and there was nothing left. But she knew that since Chu Shen would bury those things underground, it meant that the financial relationship between the Chu family and the Dongping County Mansion should have been continuing.
Just thinking about it, the team had stopped, and everyone got out of the car one after another, Lin Qiantan had already seen the Chu family descending to the ground on the other side from a distance, and nodded to them from a distance, which was regarded as a greeting.
Chu gradually has to take into account the feelings and interests of the deceased, but Chu Jiang doesn't have to, Lin Qiantan started with Chu Jiang, although it can't fundamentally stop Chu Jian, but at least he can win that the money exchange with the Dongping County Mansion is no longer through Chu Shen, but directly taken over by Chu Jiang!
Ledgers are a good thing, written down one by one, so that you can clearly know where your finances are going, but many times they can also become a curse. It's all about who owns it.
Lin Qiantan retracted her gaze and followed the elders of the family to the front. After three days of walking, Lin Qiantan pinched her nose and stayed with Lin Bixiang, and she couldn't wait to get off at the station. But Lin Bixiang has been defeated and fought repeatedly, so she has to fly around there like a fly.
There are a large number of travelers, and there are people who make unified arrangements, and the status of the Lin family in the court is neither high nor low, it is considered medium, and it can be regarded as the light of Yin Wei, and they are qualified to live in the villa with the emperor.
Inside, of course, everyone has their own room, Lin Qiantan doesn't need to be wronged anymore to sleep with Lin Bixiang, happy and clean.
The scenery inside and outside the villa is beautiful, even if she knows that it is already full of murderous opportunities, Lin Qiantan still can't help but be attracted by the scenery.
As soon as he arrived, Emperor Tianlong naturally wanted to set up a banquet, which could be regarded as catching the wind and washing the dust, but all the ministers who were qualified to enter to accompany the emperor to eat had all stepped on the hour to come to the place where the summer flowers were in full bloom. And Emperor Tianlong was naturally the last to arrive.
Emperor Tianlong lived up to his name, he was a man with a sturdy body and a wide skeleton, as majestic as a giant bear. Even through the dragon robe, Lin Qiantan could see the outline of his muscles hidden under the clothes from a distance.
Among the men Lin Qiantan has seen in her life, I am afraid that only Wang Ergou, a half-grown boy, can be compared with Emperor Tianlong.
However, Emperor Tianlong gives people the feeling of being rough and mighty, and Wang Ergou ...... Lin Qiantan thought of him and couldn't help but smile lightly.
The guy, who was less than two years older than her current body, would have looked a little lean if he had been dressed in clothes that had plenty of cover. Coupled with the purity of that person's eyes, although Lin Qiantan never gave him a good face, he actually got along with him two or three times, at least he didn't think he was too annoying.
She is also a beauty lover, and when she sees a good-looking young man, she will have more aesthetic filters.
Immediately, Lin Qiantan thought that this young man was actually involved in the affairs of the Dongping County Palace.
She guessed that if Yan Shao wanted to assassinate, then the group of people in charge of the operation would probably be ambushed near her right now.
The warbler in front of her, the delicious food on the table, everything seems to be still singing and dancing, Lin Qiantan turned her head to look outside, it was still early, it was still afternoon, but she already felt the coldness of the bayonet on the side.
When she came out this time, Lin Qiantan knew that it might be a little dangerous, so she simply brought the screen and screen waves that had just arrived in her yard for a few days, and kept all the Song family and others to take care of the home.
Among the few big girls, they only brought the relatively clever brocade lotus and green jade.
Suddenly, as if she noticed that someone had been watching her, Lin Qiantan chased after her, Zhang Yan was looking over here, as if she was repeatedly making eye contact with her, Lin Qiantan nodded slightly in response, and the other party received the meaning, and the two of them still threw themselves into the banquet.
The emperor traveled, and the Zheng Guogong Mansion was also on the side, and Zhang Yan, as Yan Shao's fiancée, obviously received special attention from Emperor Tianlong.
Lin Qiantan had just made a secret call with her, and Emperor Tianlong over there called her to dance, as if he deliberately didn't know that the young lady of Zheng Guogong's Mansion had a reputation for not being good at dancing.
The only daughter of the Zhang family is not good at those means to please men, but is very interested in geography and landforms. However, these partial interests are very different and useless, and Zhang Yan has been more or less ridiculed.
