On the second day of Emperor Shouyi's reign, the Inner Court Department officially issued an order to order King Ji, Yan Que, and Ye Shizhen to be the chief judge to review the Chiyan reversal case. There were not a few people who had doubts and sympathies for this huge case that once shook the entire beam, but this sentiment was suppressed for thirteen years due to the coercion of power and high pressure. As Xia Jiang's confession and retrial deepened, the details of the Meiling tragedy were revealed bit by bit, and the grief and indignation of the people in the government and the opposition also rose higher and higher, almost to the point of boiling public feelings.

Nie Feng, Nie Duo, and Wei Zheng were all taken away by Xiao Jingyan because they were both witnesses and wanted to restore their identities. How to let these people appear at the most appropriate time and in the most natural way is not a simple matter, according to Mei Changsu's previous habits, of course he has to worry about planning, but this time Lin Chen and Xiao Jingyan's approach coincided, one gave an order as a doctor, and the other interfered from the position of a friend, so the matter was finally planned and perfected by the prince's henchmen and think tanks, and Mei Changsu was not allowed to interfere, but just reported the specific progress every day, so that he would not be affected by the external turmoil as much as possible, and wait for the final result with a calm mind。

By mid-September, the process of retrial had basically ended, but since the case involved a wide range of issues, and it was not enough to simply change the verdict, it took more than half a month to decide in detail how to modify, compensate, and bereavement benefits.

At the beginning of October, the fourth crown prince led three chief judges into the palace to face the king, and stayed from morning until dusk. Two days later, the Inner Court Division passed on three decrees: first, it announced the charges of rebellion against King Zhaoxue, King Qi, Lin Xie, and the civil and military officials implicated in the case, a total of 31 people, and passed the grievances to all places; The second is to order the relocation of Concubine Chen, King Qi and their descendants into the imperial mausoleum. and rebuilt the ancestral hall of the Lin family, both of them resumed the regular sacrifice and offering according to the position. The survivors of the case were reinstated and rewarded. The Ministry of Rites will agree to give their families a generous bereavement pension and it is scheduled for October 20. In the Taiyi Royal Temple, a spiritual altar was set up, and the emperor led hundreds of officials to pay tribute to the souls of the dead; Third, the criminals Xia Jiang and Xie Yu and several accomplices in this case were sentenced to the crime of great rebellion. The penalty of Ling Chi shall be punished. Xie Yu is dead, the corpse is unknown, and the nine clans are all connected except for the eldest princess of Liyang, who has been blessed with merit and forgiveness.

These three decrees have roughly confirmed the direction of overturning the case, and the next step is to implement the detailed rules of various ministries, departments and localities. The memorial service on October 20 was held as scheduled to show respect for the emperor and the crown prince, and both wore plain crowns. Personally pour incense before the spiritual seat and burn prayers to heaven. It was a gloomy day and a sad atmosphere. After Emperor Liang added incense and candles, he also cried in public. It means that he will issue an edict against himself. Although Xiao Jingyan never expected him to come to such a hand. But he was not surprised by the change, and only said some common clichés. After a little persuasion, he didn't accompany him to a sensational drama of a father crying and a son. And Emperor Liang obviously just talked, and after many days after the sacrifice, he didn't mention the matter of committing an edict again.

During this period, Mei Changsu suffered another wind chill, but his condition was much better than when he had similar diseases before. Due to the obvious effect, Dr. Yan initially recognized Lin Chen's treatment direction, and everyone was very happy and grateful, which made Lin Gongzi proud for a long time

Xiao Jingyan has now basically undertaken all the affairs of the court, and his busyness has increased unabated. However, when he had a little free time, he would ride lightly, Jane would never alarm anyone and go to Su's house to meet his friends. After the completion of the Lin ancestral hall, he also secretly arranged for Mei Changsu to hold a very formal sacrifice as the son of man. It's just that in addition to that day, the small wooden plaque with "Lin Shu's Position" written on it will always be in this desolate ancestral hall, occupying the position it should appear in the eyes of outsiders, and Xiao Jingyan will feel heartache every time he looks at it.

Compared to the prince of the East Palace, Lin Chen, who had mixed emotions and had never known Lin Shu, only had pure happiness, after all, a major event that Mei Changsu had been thinking about the most was finally completed, and for the doctor, this was an opportunity that could be grasped and used.

"Changsu, why did you get to this last moment and feel more peaceful?" After the routine pulse check, Lin Chenle asked: "I originally thought that the day when the Golden Palace was wronged would be a big pass for you, but who knew that everything would be fine when you came back, that is, your face was a little white, your anger was a little bit, your pulse was a little messy, and people shook a little."

"Is that all right?!" Li Gang, who was accompanying him, couldn't help but want to squirt him with a sip of water.

"It's good." Lin Chen said indifferently: "With a little conditioning, there is no danger." You know, what I'm most afraid of is that you can relax in one breath, and suddenly people can't do it, then I can't help it. ”

Mei Changsu withdrew his wrist and put down his sleeves and said with a smile: "Maybe it's like Jing Yan said that thousands of kung fu are done in front." The more you do in front, the more you can grasp it, and the less nervous you will be. Every time I have made a little progress in the past thirteen years, I have been relieved a little bit in my heart, and it is just to see my wish for myself. Now that the results are under control, how can I get excited? ”

"Don't deceive people," Lin Chen snorted and said, "Praise you, you still climbed the pole, think I really don't know?" You're holding on, not because you're really not excited, but because you haven't let go of that breath at all. I know what you think, you just don't have confidence in your body, you're afraid, I'm afraid that when everyone is happy, you suddenly can't hold on, and all of a sudden happy event turns into a funeral, so that your friends will suffer a lot of pain from joy and sorrow, right? Do you think that holding out for a few more months is a little more moderate than dying as soon as the case is overturned, and the impact will be less for everyone, right? ”

"Lin Gongzi" Li Gang's face suddenly changed, "Why are you talking so ugly?" How could our sect master, who is dead or alive, not be able to hold on? ”

"You have it," Lin Chen waved his hand and glanced at him, "You people, don't look at who he is, like you, who is cautious, concealing the truth, not worrying, and hiding, it is also useful to ordinary patients, but you can talk to him...... Let's rest. What can you hide from this kid's crystal heart? It's just to lie to yourself and others, and in the end, it makes everyone's hearts heavy, and it's not good for anyone! ”

"But...... But ......" Li Gang was originally very good at words. But he couldn't find a word for a while after being trained like this, although he still disagreed with it in his heart. But he could only stare dryly.

Mei Changsu held a cup of hot tea. After a moment of silence, he said slowly: "Then what do you want to say?" ”

"I would say there's only one thing you have to do right now, and that's relax. Believe me," Lin Chen smiled and leaned over to him, "Don't set limits for yourself, don't think about whether it can last for five months or ten months, you just do your best, and I'll do my best, okay?" ”

Mei Changsu looked back at him quietly, and Lin Chen rarely didn't have a playful expression. Sometimes words are needed to communicate between two smart people. After a moment of silence, Mei Changsu let out a low "um".

"As for your plan to leave the capital, I have no objection." Lin Chen immediately laughed: "Only the place where the mountains and rivers are beautiful is suitable for recuperation." Things in the capital are too chaotic and chaotic. It's not easy to calm down. Let's go back to Langya Mountain, the best scenery in the world. It still has to belong to my family's Langya Mountain. ”

"Yes." Mei Changsu smiled and said: "The autumn season is suitable for going out, but before leaving, I still have to tell Jing Yan, if he suddenly disappears, I don't know how he will think nonsense." ”

"Sect Master, Sect Master, will you take us with you when you go out?" Li Gang hurriedly asked.

"What are you taking you for?" Mei Changsu raised his eyebrows: "Although you don't have relatives to care about, and you don't want to restore your old body to receive the court's reward, you don't need to follow me all the time, right?" Jiang Zuomeng still has a mess of things, you don't care, do you want me to take care of it? This time, I'll only take Feiliu, and you all go back to Langzhou. ”

Li Gang was suddenly anxious: "Sect Master Feiliu is a child, he can't take care of people at all!" ”

"Isn't there still Lin Chen?"

"Please, Sect Master Lin Gongzi...... It's okay if you don't take care of him......"

"Hey," Lin Chenda was dissatisfied, "What do you mean by that?" ”

Li Gang ignored him, pounced, knelt down in front of Mei Changsu and insisted: "Sect Master, no matter what, you have to take one of me and Zhen Pingzhong, just go out with a child and a non-serious person, and we won't agree to die!" ”

Lin Chen grabbed the folding fan and knocked on Li Gang's head and scolded, "What do you want?" He is the sect master, he asked you to go back to Jiangzuo League to do things, you have to go, who dares to disobey? I still want to go out with you, I'm sorry, you don't have a door! There are no windows! Roll back to Langzhou and work hard for the league! If you want to follow her, Gong Yu and her are idle! ”

Before Li Gang could react, Mei Changsu had already sat up all of a sudden: "Lin Chen, what are you talking about......"

"The best of both worlds!" Lin Chen Zhenzhen said: "They think I'm not serious, no one dies with me, and they don't agree, so they can't really let them die, right?" But Li Gang and Zhen Ping are not idle, what you said about Jiang Zuomeng still has a mess! Of course, Gong Yu is the most suitable, Li Gang went to tell Gong Yu to tell her to prepare. ”

Li Gang reacted quickly enough this time, and he only responded and ran away. Mei Changsu glared at Lin Chen's face and said, "Don't make trouble, you really want to bring a lot of candidates, it's very inconvenient to bring a girl?" ”

"Girls, be careful. Besides, Li Gang has already gone to tell her, and it's too sad for you to say that you don't bring it now," Lin Chen said with a smile, "Okay, you should go out and bring a girl." Don't tell me, you, a young master, that you've never called a girl in your life. ”

Mei Changsu was caught by him for a while, Li Gang ran away again, thinking about it, even if he insisted on not bringing it, he was afraid that Gong Yu would secretly follow, but it would be strange, it was better to be calm, and everyone would get along as usual.

"I'll tell you, I've planned it," Lin Chen saw him give in, the more elated he became, "Let's go to Fuxian Lake in Huozhou to taste Xianlu tea for two days, go around to Master Qin's place to eat vegetarian fasting, self-cultivation for half a month, and then walk along the Tuojiang River, Xiaolingxia, where there is a Buddha light on the mountain, you must be able to see it for ten days, and then go to Fengqigou to see the monkey, Weiming, cinnabar and Qinglin, they haven't seen each other for a long time, visit the thimble mother-in-law, drunk peanuts, don't you like to eat the most?" Let's go get two jars before we go back to Langya Mountain......"

"Okay, okay," Mei Changsu raised his two hands, his expression a little weak, "Lin Chenzhao, your way of walking, when we arrive at Langya Mountain, why will it take more than half a year, right?" ”

"What's wrong with most of the year?" Lin Chen looked at him deeply, "What are you doing with the time?" What's the benefit of figuring it out? You believe me, if we can go back to Langya Mountain in the end, it's not something to think about at all, is it? ”

Mei Changsu looked back at him quietly, and a warmth rippled in his heart. Lin Chendi understood that it was because he understood that he didn't need more politeness.

"Okay, then I'll ask you, the Mongolian doctor, and I'll tell Jing Yan in two days, let's go out together."

Lin Chen laughed and jumped up, patted Mei Changsu on the shoulder several times, and then happily rushed to the outside of the courtyard and shouted: "Xiao Feiliu, come out quickly, you want to go out with Brother Lin Chen!" ”

He was counting the birds flying next to the bird's nest in the tree, and suddenly he was frightened, and he fell down with a thud. Lin Chen smiled, Aunt Ji smiled, Li Gang, Zhen Ping and Gong Yu, who rushed over, also laughed together, and even Mei Changsu, who heard it through the window, couldn't help but shake his head while secretly laughing.

On this day, Su Zhai was cheerful, some people put aside their burdens, some people held hopes, everyone was willing to laugh, hoping that the future could continue forever.

However, neither Mei Changsu, who had a last resort, nor Lin Chen, who had insight into the world, did not expect at this moment that just two days later, several urgent express reports entered Beijing in the starry night, like a thunderbolt, and instantly exploded the sky of the imperial capital of Daliang.
