Out of the palace, Lin Ruo raised her hand, rubbed her eyebrows and temples, and the circumvention with Emperor Mingzong was not as smooth as she thought, and the ups and downs in the middle really bothered her. Of course, the identity of the only daughter left by Lin Yuaner still helped her a lot, and the love for making the emperor and the queen mother happy for so many years is also in it.

Emperor Mingzong was lenient with the Lin family, even though the Lin family has been dormant and low-key, it is also related to the Lin family's character of sparing no effort to share worries for the monarch but not greedy for half of the power.

But even so, Lin Jiaming's business will become more and more obvious, and then it will not be her who can get away with pretending to be stupid in front of Emperor Mingzong.

In Bian'an, the Lin family under the emperor's nose has never done anything out of the ordinary, and no matter how carefully the Yihuo Guard investigates, he has never found any misdeeds of the Lin family, and of course, he has never found that the real business of the Lin family is so big. Otherwise, even if the Lin family is just a family of merchants, is the emperor jealous - after all, there are too many things that money can do, and the Lin family has the wealth of the country, and the business is not limited to Donglu, which is enough to constitute a "trumped-up" crime.

No matter how strong the family is, it is not as strong as the blade; But no matter how fierce the bears are, they still have to be trapped by food and ammunition.

This is a point that Lin Ruo has long seen through. When he talked to Li Yan in the past, the young Li Yan couldn't have imagined that Lin Ruo, who was so big, had such a blueprint in his chest! Not only was Li Yan surprised, but even Lin Qian couldn't imagine that his niece would have such a majestic strategy. By now, they have long since changed from half-belief to deep belief, and step by step they have participated in the grand blueprint outlined by Lin Ruo.

The Lin family's current wealth is worthy of a sentence of "pouring wealth into the sky" and a "rich world", but in addition to business, there are more gaps waiting to be filled: for example, truly grasp the economic lifeline of the entire country and even the world, starting from grain to minerals, little by little; Another example is the need for a force that can protect the Lin family, more elite, more powerful, and more massive than the shadow guard of the Rong Palace, and more powerful, and more massive than the emperor's wing fire guard.

The guards brought by Li Yan from Beiqi, the guards recruited by Wang Ji, the fourth prince of the Wang family, and the guards in the hands of Ye Ling and Ji Junyang, are definitely not enough. Coupled with the shipping lanes to be opened in a few years, and the wealth that can be grabbed, a large number of organized guards will be needed.

In this era, it is necessary to recruit a few or a dozen killers who are willing to work hard, and they can afford enough gold and silver wealth, and it will work. But it is not an easy task to have a huge killer organization, such as Tang Sect and Nine Star. Even if you have an elite shadow guard like Murong Chong, or a powerful black armor guard like Meng Bin, it can't be achieved overnight, and you have to select and sharpen it again and again to leave such an elite and loyal guard force.

Alas, it would be nice to be able to keep the "Nine Stars" for yourself!

Lin Ruoru thought about it, the troublesome things lingered in her heart, and suddenly, the carriage braked suddenly, making her defenseless whole person lean forward! Fortunately, the carriage was not fast, and Youcao grabbed her quickly, so she didn't bump into it.

Unhappily lifting the curtains of the car, wanting to find out what is going on?

The coachman turned his head and was about to tell Lin Ruo about the fact that someone had stopped the car again, but found that the Leng guard, who had been haunted and had not protected Princess Rong, appeared next to the carriage in the blink of an eye.

Under the sun, the silver mask that reflects the dazzling light shows the identity of the person who stopped the car.

The deputy pavilion master of Nine Stars, the adopted son of Qin Huai Bai Sanniang, Bai Que.

Of course, there should be a more mysterious and noble identity on him, because of the same Xiuyu jade pendant from the palace that Gu Manxi identifies.

Just thinking of the "Nine Stars" and thinking about whether there was a way to take the "Nine Stars" for himself, Bai Que appeared, and it must be said that it was a coincidence.

Could it be that this is a providential arrangement?

But!

Why did he stop her carriage again?!

Before Lin Ruo went to Beiqi, whether it was the identity of the county lord of Minhui or the identity of Princess Rong, no one stopped her carriage abruptly on the street, why did she go to Beiqi and come back, and was stopped by someone on the street in a row? First is the high-spirited Qing'an Hou Shizi Jiang Ming, and then the indomitable Prince Song Huanchu of Xishu Zhan, and now Bai Que has a bad stomach with a bad stomach.

Don't these barbarians know that this kind of behavior is dangerous!

Even though she is gentle and virtuous in the minds of most people, this does not mean that she is easy to bully!

Lin Ruo's face was dark, the silver mask covered most of Bai Que's face, against the light, and she couldn't see the expression on his face clearly, but she dared to be sure that Bai Que must have a gloating expression at this moment!

"It disturbed Princess Rong's frame, is it Bai's." Bai Que smiled and apologized, "Please also ask Princess Rong to have a lot of money to give Bai a chance to make amends." ”

"No need!"

Lin Ruo lowered the curtain and coldly rejected the other party's proposal.

"Princess Rong is slow, Bai sincerely wants to make amends to the princess, and asks the princess to reward everything!"

Through the light refracted from the mask, you can vaguely see the eyes that appear behind the mask, and the essence of the light is flickering, it must be a bad idea.

Lin Ruo looked at Leng Shu, and between his eyes, from Leng Shu's subtle movements that were not easy to detect, Lin Ruo got a message: she came out of the palace with a "tail" behind her. Whose person this "tail" is, most of them can be confirmed - Emperor Mingzong's winged fire guard. Whether it was for protection or surveillance is unknown.

After a quick calculation in my heart, the information of the conversation with Emperor Mingzong in the imperial study today, it is best to go to the Lin Mansion in person and talk to Li Yan face to face. But the reason for the awkward quarrel with Murong Chong has been prevaricated by her high-sounding "knowledge of the general situation".

Turning his gaze to Bai Que, Lin Ruo thinned his eyebrows, and a cunning light flashed imperceptibly.

Since you sent it to the door yourself, don't blame me for taking advantage of it!

"Since Bai Gongzi insisted on inviting him, this concubine agreed, lead the way."

After that, he lowered the curtain, sat in the carriage, and put on the posture of Princess Rong.

Bai Que tugged at the corners of his mouth, and said in his heart: This girl is really not cute at all! But even if it's not cute, it's so special! Meaningfully glanced at Leng Shu, then turned around and walked ahead, and really began to "lead the way". The chopping Peng who followed beside him followed neatly, followed by Lin Ruo's carriage, which was protected by Leng Shu.

Youcao felt uneasy and whispered, "Miss......"

"It's okay," Lin Ruo hooked the corners of his mouth, "Who sold whom, who counted the money for whom, it's not necessarily!" ”

Seeing that his young lady was confident, Yucao quietly closed her mouth. If the lady is sure of something, it must be no problem!
