As soon as these words came out, Wan Lin's heart immediately tightened.

"Since His Majesty asked the minister, the minister told the truth. The minister is not very familiar with His Royal Highness King Jie and His Royal Highness King Zhao, so he has no opinion on the two Highnesses. The minister only heard that His Royal Highness King Jie was gentle and calm, and His Royal Highness King Zhao had a keen mind, and they each had their own strengths. ”

Wan Lin kept staring at his feet when he spoke, and his heart kept tight.

After listening to Wan Lin's words, the emperor was silent for a moment.

Wan Lin lowered his head to hide his nervous expression, he had never felt so nervous since he became an official.

Time passed minute by minute, the emperor was silent for a very short time, but Wan Lin felt that an extremely long time had passed.

After waiting for a while, the emperor finally spoke.

"Wan Aiqing, why are you so cautious in front of me. I know you don't know much about them, and I'm just asking. ”

After the emperor finished speaking, a drop of cold sweat slid down Wan Lin's forehead.

As soon as he was in a cold sweat, the emperor continued: "King Zhenbei has found you today, presumably King Jie and King Zhao will be looking for you soon, right?" ”

Wan Lin didn't dare to hide it, and immediately confessed: "His Royal Highness King Jie has already found a minister. ”

"What did he say to you?"

The emperor's tone sounded careless, but Wan Lin knew that since the emperor could find him on purpose, it was impossible for him to be really careless.

Wan Lin retold the conversation with King Jie word for word.

"You're doing a great job."

The emperor's words relaxed Wan Lin's tense nerves a lot.

Wan Lin raised his head, and with a gentle smile on the emperor's face, he said to him: "It's not too early, you can go back." ”

"Yes, the minister is retiring!"

Wan Lin waited for this sentence and immediately walked out of the imperial study.

As soon as Wan Lin arrived home, Fu Xiaojiu couldn't wait to ask, "What is the emperor looking for you to do?" ”

"Shhhh

dragged Fu Xiaojiu back to the room, Wan Lin told Fu Xiaojiu what the emperor told him, and handed over the deed to Fu Xiaojiu.

"Why is this deed in the sage?"

Fu Xiaojiu couldn't help but gasp.

Wan Lin said indifferently: "This is the capital, it is at the feet of the Son of Heaven, what can be hidden from the eyes of the saint?" ”

Fu Xiaojiu looked at the deed and said helplessly: "Also, I won't be surprised if you say that." This deed should be Yaxing's, and I'll send it to Yaxing tomorrow. ”

Knowing that the king of Zhenbei had returned ahead of schedule, Fu Xiaojiu had a hunch that the capital would not be so calm anymore, and a secret battle for power and profit was about to break out.

Fu Xiaojiu couldn't help but feel worried, "The king of Zhenbei and the emperor are using you as bait." The first person King Zhenbei saw when he returned to Beijing in advance was you, and King Jie and King Zhao would definitely be staring at you. ”

Wan Lin came to the window, looked at the bright moon with solemn eyes, and said happily: "The southern border is in an emergency, and the king of Zhenbei is about to go to the battlefield again if he can't even breathe, so the saint will definitely not weaken the military power in his hands." In fact, even if there was no war in the south, the saint would not move the military power of the king of Zhenbei. I'm afraid that someone will instigate it. But the war in the south 'saved' him. ”

Fu Xiaojiu was also worried that the king of Zhenbei would be a master and cause trouble.

However, after listening to Wan Lin's analysis, she relieved herself and only focused her questions on the matter of Lichu.

"Who does the saint want to appoint as the crown prince? In my opinion, the queen has been established, and nominally the queen has an heir. The candidate for the crown prince should be between King Jie or King Zhao. ”

Wan Lin turned around and looked at her and asked with a smile, "Lady, when did you care so much about political affairs?" ”

Fu Xiaojiu came to him and winked at him, "I've always been very serious!" ”

"Naughty!" Wan Lin wrapped one hand around Fu Xiaojiu's waist, and then kissed her lightly on the forehead.

After the joke, Fu Xiaojiu became serious, and there was a little worry between his eyebrows.

"Let's stop messing with you, let's get down to business! Of course I care about political affairs, because you are in officialdom as if you are on the battlefield, and you have to guard against any number of guns and arrows. Now is the critical moment for Lichu, how can I not worry about you? ”

Wan Lin wrapped his hands around Fu Xiaojiu's slender waist, "My good lady, thank you for worrying about me, but I don't need you to worry about me." Don't worry, I can handle these things well, and I will definitely not hurt myself. ”

Fu Xiaojiu stared at Wan Lin, and from the bottom of his eyes, he saw the confidence and tenacity as always.

The two of them looked at each other, didn't need to speak, and understood each other's thoughts in their hearts.

Wan Lin lowered his head and kissed Fu Xiaojiu's soft lips, and said softly: "I can't contribute to your medical hall and workshop, and I can't let you worry about me anymore." Lady, you just have to focus on the hospital and the workshop, and don't worry about me. Also, you and I will be busy recently, and I ask the lady to work hard to take care of the ginseng, I am afraid that I will return every day and evening in the future. ”

Fu Xiaojiu buried his face in Wan Lin's arms and said softly: "Don't worry, I will do my own thing, and I will also take care of Ginseng." Xianggong, you have to be careful in everything, even if I can't help, it's good for you to go home and talk to me every day, or let me accompany you to drink some wine to relieve your worries. ”

Wan Lin didn't speak again, but hugged Fu Xiaojiu tighter.

The news of King Zhenbei's secret return to Beijing was very tightly blocked, so when King Zhenbei suddenly appeared in the early court, everyone was taken aback.

The king of Zhenbei told the emperor that he would return to Beijing alone and ask for his life to go to the south.

The emperor's trust in the king of Zhenbei is irreplaceable by other generals, and when he sees him, the emperor can foresee the success or failure of the war, and without saying a word, he handed over the matter of pacifying the southern border to the king of Zhenbei.

The emperor transferred another 50,000 troops to him, wishing him an early victory.

However, Yuan Ge Lao and Wu Xuehai and other Jiewang parties all changed their faces.

They had already asked other generals to go to the south, and they were afraid that the king of Zhenbei would be too tired, and they should give other generals the opportunity to make contributions in due course.

Originally, the emperor also talked about this matter yesterday, and seeing that he was about to give the opportunity to go to the south to other generals, who would have thought that the king of Zhenbei would return to the capital alone first.

After receiving the order, the king of Zhenbei returned to the palace first, and first discussed the situation in the south with some deputy generals and staff officers, and planned to take his men and horses to join the army that had gone directly to the south in two days.

After the king of Zhenbei left, the old Yuan Pavilion also proposed to the emperor to give other generals some opportunities, and some people took the initiative to ask for help, but they were all stopped by the emperor.

Moreover, the emperor also used the fact that the southern border was undecided and the Hule Kingdom might fight back, and postponed the matter of establishing the prince, saying that he would wait until all the external troubles were solved before coming to the prince, so as to give the prince a stable world.

Now that the emperor has said it, and there is a certain amount of truth, everyone did not dare to raise any more objections.

Although the emperor still has great trust in the king of Zhenbei, the matter of establishing the prince has been postponed again, but it has given some people a chance.

King Jie and King Zhao now finally know who the person Wan Lin met in the library that day, and they also know the importance of Wan Lin.

The first person King Zhenbei saw after returning to Beijing was him, which shows how much King Zhenbei values him.

And last night, the emperor specially summoned Wan Lin, and it can also be seen that the emperor attaches great importance to Wan Lin.

If the emperor also regards the king of Zhenbei as the most trusted general, he will not weaken his military power because of the establishment of the prince.

For such a pillar of the country, if he can't suppress it, but he wants to succeed, he must be drawn into his command.

The king of Zhenbei is not easy to woo, and he can't win over at present, but Wanlin can't win over a small Hanlin Academy?

The Xu family's journey into Beijing was particularly smooth, and Fu Xiaojiu helped them buy a field house in only five or six days, and they arrived in the capital.

Fu Xiaojiu took them to the magnificent mansion first, Xu Yuanwai and Mrs. Xu were very satisfied with this house, Xu Xiaogongzi entered the courtyard and began to spread joy, not feeling how strange it was at all.

After Fu Xiaojiu invited their family to lunch, he took them to Yahang to re-sign all the house deeds and title deeds, and this time people couldn't help but believe it.

Because the people raised in the money pile are different from self-made people, or people from ordinary families, they have a sense of self-confidence and generosity, and after the Xu family is still an official eunuch, although Xu Yuanwai is a businessman, he still has some bookish energy.

Mrs. Xu is even more well-maintained, and her words and deeds are elegant and noble, which cannot be pretended.

The shopkeeper of the tooth shop has read countless people, and it can be seen at a glance that these two people are really rich from a rich background, and the three members of the Xu family are all very well dressed, which is even more convincing.

After coming out of the tooth shop, Fu Xiaojiu deliberately let them walk slower, and walked all the way from the tooth to the medical hall.

Fu Xiaojiu introduced them when he met acquaintances, saying that the real owner of the Tian Mansion had arrived.

This time, those who doubted Wanlin's fame and reputation no longer doubted, and believed that there was such a sincere friendship in this world that could stand the test of money.

After the three members of the Xu family arrived at the hospital, Mrs. Xu took Fu Xiaojiu's hand and said with great admiration: "Sister, you are really amazing." When you arrive in the capital, you can still open the medical hall so prosperously. To be honest, I'm always worried at home, afraid that you won't be able to gain a foothold in the capital. ”

Fu Xiaojiu smiled modestly: "It's just that I'm holding the official name of my father-in-law, and they just give me some face." ”

Mrs. Xu covered her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled: "Don't be modest, I know your ability." ”

Fu Xiaojiu asked Xue Wenshan to come over and meet the three members of the Xu family, Xu Yuanwai and Mrs. Xu praised him, saying that he was a good boy with perseverance, and it was not easy to leave his father and mother to come to the capital to continue studying medicine with Fu Xiaojiu at such a young age, and let Xu Xiaogongzi learn from him.

There were many people in the hospital, so Fu Xiaojiu didn't let them stay longer, for fear that they would be too sick, so he took them to the door of the Hanging Ji Hall.

Fu Xiaojiu looked at the Hanging Ji Hall, which had a lot of patients, and said, "This is the medical hall of the Feizhi Xianggong's family. They are busier than us during the day, so I won't take you in, and when you are settled, I will let them and their wives go to congratulate you on the housewarming. ”

Mrs. Xu said sincerely: "Feizhi's life is really good, and I am happy for her to see her marry so well." ”

Xu Yuanwai was a businessman, and when he arrived in the capital, he smelled a business opportunity, and he was already a little anxious at this time.

"Fu Langzhong, when are we going to go to the workshop?"
