Chapter 191 The Secret of Body Movement
Hearing this, Bai Jing smiled and said: "My aunt is in charge of the inner treasury, but logically speaking, the power is only in the category of financial power, so I really shouldn't know about this.
On the other hand, the Inspection and Inspection Institute oversees everything large and small inside and outside the capital. This matter should be within their scope of authority. "
Lin Ruofu was slightly shocked and said, "You mean..."
"This matter comes from my mouth and enters your ears. It must not be known to outsiders."
"It's so true..."
Even with Lin Ruofu's position, he was a little shocked when he heard this secret.
The Inspection and Inspection Yuan has the responsibility of inspecting all officials and is above all officials. It can be said to be the largest authority in the Qing Kingdom.
Emperor Qing has always strictly prohibited people from the royal family from getting involved in the inspection institute. This move by the eldest princess is already beyond her authority. If Emperor Qing finds out, he will be furious.
"Where did you get this news?"
Lin Ruofu said solemnly.
"I have my own channels for information, so uncle doesn't need to ask."
Bai Jing smiled.
"It seems that you are also very capable. You hide it very well."
Lin Ruofu took a deep look at Bai Jing.
In the past, he, like the civil and military officials in Kyoto, believed that among the three princes, Bai Jing had the slimmest chance of seizing the throne.
But now it seems that they underestimated Bai Jing.
This kind of news can be said to be a fatal blow to the eldest princess. Even her ally prince may not know it, but Bai Jing found out about it.
Apart from anything else, Lin Ruofu, as the head of the civil service, had not heard any news at all.
It can be seen that Bai Jing is not simple.
Bai Jing smiled and said nothing.
"If I have something to say that I feel uncomfortable with, I will say it directly."
Lin Ruofu said.
"Please tell me."
"I didn't think highly of you in the past, so I was wavering between you and Wan'er.
The matter of seizing the legitimate son is extremely dangerous, and I dare not rashly send my Lin Mansion to help you. "
"My nephew can understand."
Bai Jing nodded slightly. He was not the invincible Long Aotian protagonist just after he was born. He could not be worshiped by others.
"But it is only a matter of time before the new emperor ascends the throne. If I, Lin Ruofu, had not surrendered before the new emperor succeeded to the throne and had too much power in my hands, I would inevitably end up with a liquidation afterwards."
Lin Ruofu's words were prepared for a rainy day. It is common for a new emperor to ascend the throne, the court to be reshuffled, and power to change.
There were three ministers in the Qing Dynasty who were granted seats without paying homage to the court. Lin Ruofu was one of them, and he could be said to be a very popular minister.
Even the current Emperor Qing would be suspicious of such overwhelming power, let alone the future new emperor.
"Your Highness, Third Prince, are you willing to protect our Lin Mansion for a hundred years?"
Lin Ruofu looked at Bai Jing, and it was very clear what he said.
Lin Ruofu made up his mind to bet on Bai Jing and help him win the heir!
"It's what you wish for!"
Bai Jing looked solemn.
"Okay! In that case, you and I will talk about Wan'er's marriage.
Wan'er's husband will definitely be the one in charge of the inner treasury's financial power from now on.
The eldest princess didn't want to let this power slip away. According to the crazy woman's idea, it was best for Wan'er to remain unmarried for the rest of her life.
But since she has something to do with the Inspection Institute, it is not impossible for you and I to make some maneuvers and let the Holy One strip her of her power and then marry Wan'er to you. "
Lin Ruofu planned for Bai Jing.
Emperor Qing favored the crown prince to ascend the throne, and the second prince and Bai Jing were both whetstones.
In Lin Ruofu's view, weakening the prince is what must be done.
Perhaps it was precisely because of this news that Lin Ruofu saw hope in pulling the prince off his horse that he changed his mind to assist Bai Jing. “My uncle doesn’t need to worry about this matter.
The entire inspection agency was under Chen Pingping's control, and he knew that there was a spy in one place.
I made a deal with Chen Pingping before. I asked Mr. Meng to treat Fan Xian. In exchange, he would help me disrupt Wan'er's marriage. "
Lin Ruofu suddenly realized and said: "No wonder you visited Fan Mansion in person before.
I thought you were going to try your best to win over this guy, but I didn't expect that you had reached a deal with Chen Pingping. "
Lin Ruofu felt strange again and muttered: "Fan Xian, Fan Xian... who exactly is this person?
I only know that Chen Pingping admires him quite a lot, but I don't know why. "
Chen Pingping's friendship with Fan Jian was not good to Fan Xian, which was really weird.
Furthermore, how could an illegitimate child raised in Danzhou all year round be related to a big shot like the dean of the inspection department?
Bai Jing smiled mysteriously and said, "Uncle, you really want to know?"
Lin Ruofu narrowed his eyes slightly, and his old fox's sense of smell allowed him to smell that there must be a huge secret in it.
"In this court, if you want to live a long time, you shouldn't know too many passwords. If others ask me, I will say that I am not interested.
But if you ask me, I want to find out.
At first, I was indeed a little curious.
Secondly, you and I should also have some common secrets to maintain our relationship. "
"Uncle, please don't regret it, otherwise you will blame your nephew for talking too much later."
Hearing this, Lin Ruofu's heart skipped a beat. This secret might be bigger than he thought beforehand, but now that it was over, he had no way of turning back.
"Tell me what, I haven't seen any big storms or waves."
"Uncle, does he know Ye Qingmei?"
Bai Jing asked.
"Like thunder, the company she founded in the past became an imperial merchant, and the inspection institute she created has been overwhelming the entire Qing Dynasty.
Even the prosperity of Dongyi City is closely related to her.
According to rumors at the time, the Holy Lord, Chen Pingping, and Fan Jian had a very good personal relationship. The Holy Lord could successfully ascend the throne, and Ye Qingmei was also among them.
However, more than ten years ago, she suddenly disappeared miraculously, as if she had evaporated from the face of the earth, and she has since disappeared without a trace.
The incident back then seemed to be done by the Queen's family. Chen Pingping happened to be away from Kyoto at that time. After returning, he led the Black Cavalry to massacre the entire Kyoto.
How is she related to Fan Xian? "
Lin Ruofu asked casually.
Bai Jing raised his lips and said, "Why don't we assume a situation.
If Ye Qingmei had a child the year she disappeared, then the child should be as old as Fan Xian now. "
Lin Ruofu's eyebrows jumped.
"It seems to be true... the private relationship between several people, the illegitimate child of the Fan family, Chen Pingping values it, so that's it. "
"Uncle, why don't you guess again, who is Fan Xian's father. "
"Chen Pingping is impossible, and if Fan Xian is Fan Jian's child, why did he declare it to the public as an illegitimate child and raise him in Danzhou all the time..."
Lin Ruofu thought of a possibility, and his pupils widened slightly.
"This is really... a shocking secret! ”
…………
That afternoon, Lin Gong got on a carriage and left Kyoto.
“Second Young Master, why is the trip so rushed? And you only bring a few of us. I’m afraid your safety may not be guaranteed.”
A trace of fatigue flashed across Lin Gong’s eyes, and he said to his followers: “I would like to stay in Kyoto for a few more days, but unfortunately the incident happened suddenly and there is no way.
You are all seventh-grade masters. If you work together, even if an eighth-grade master attacks, you can force him back. It’s okay.”
