The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor

Chapter 748 Chen Ji fled and was in trouble (1)

The Lin family and Concubine Lin were a thorn in Emperor Hui'an's throat. For more than 20 years, Emperor Hui'an never gave up on eradicating the Lin family and Concubine Lin. However, he was afraid of what Taishi Lin was holding and kept looking for it. There was no chance to force him to hand it over.

Unexpectedly, Prince Heng and Mr. Lin created the fraud case in the examination room and gave the opportunity to eradicate the Lin family and Concubine Lin to the hands of Emperor Hui'an.

Xiao Ruiyuan and Chu Heng got hold of the evidence that Mr. Lin took advantage of his official position to leak Qiu Wei's test questions and answers to Qin Hui and the others, thereby paying them to frame Mo Qingze, and later sent a killer to set fire to the prison of the Ministry of Justice. Such a good opportunity , how could Emperor Hui'an let it go?

After more than a thousand people in the Hall of Supreme Harmony dispersed one after another in the afternoon, Emperor Hui'an quickly ordered his guards to capture Prince Heng and Mr. Lin who were about to leave the palace, and summoned all his trusted ministers to attend in front of these ministers. , counting down the ten sins of King Heng and Mr. Lin.

With the evidence conclusive, King Heng and Mr. Lin had no way of denying it. Just when Emperor Hui'an was about to punish the two, Taishi Lin, who was over seventy years old, tremblingly stepped into the Hall of Supreme Harmony and begged Emperor Hui'an to repay him.

Although Taishi Lin did not teach his children well and taught Mr. Lin who had evil intentions, as the emperor's teacher of the Three Dynasties, he was not only highly respected by the scholars, but also loyal to the royal family and made indispensable contributions. Even Emperor Hui'an and Chu Heng, who hated the Lin family deeply, could not deny this.

 Taishi Lin knew that if he didn't come up with something that satisfied Emperor Hui'an, Emperor Hui'an would definitely not let the Lin family go. Therefore, after preventing Emperor Hui'an from uttering words to kill the entire Lin family, he had a long secret conversation with Emperor Hui'an in the imperial study.

No one knew what the secret conversation between Taishi Lin and Emperor Hui'an was. When Taishi Lin reappeared in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, he handed over the official seal, official title, and official hat that symbolized the Taishi's status in public, but ignored the pain. Mr. Lin, who begged and hoped that his father could save his life, went straight out of the palace.

Emperor Hui'an saw that Master Lin had devoted himself to the royal family and had made great contributions to the country and the country, so he finally sentenced Master Lin to be executed by execution three days later. Concubine Lin poisoned the late empress and committed a heinous crime, so she was immediately given a glass of poisonous wine. The Lin family was expropriated and demoted to the rank of common people. The descendants of the family were not allowed to take part in the imperial examinations or become officials for generations.

Let’s say that when Taishi Lin returned to Lin’s house, the royal guards surrounded Lin’s house and did not allow anyone to enter or exit. Another small group of guards went to the Chen family, which was only three blocks away from the Lin Mansion, to arrest Chen Ji, who was involved in the murder of the late empress.

Just when the guards kicked open the door of the Chen family, they found that there were only a dozen servants and servants inside, and the three masters of the Chen family were nowhere to be seen. Finally, the guards searched Chen's house and determined that Chen Ji had escaped first with his wife and daughter.

The face of the chief guard changed drastically, and he ordered his guards to divide their troops into four groups to pursue the city gates in the east, west, south and north. Then they quickly entered the palace and reported the matter to Emperor Hui'an.

There is no one like Master Lin in the Chen family. Once they are caught, their whole family will be executed. After Chen Ji had a premonition of danger, he could only escape with his wife and daughter to gain a chance of survival.

Just when Emperor Hui'an issued an order to search for the three members of the Chen family all over the city and ordered people to go out of the city to pursue them, everyone in the Lin family was anxiously waiting for Master Lin to make up his mind, but Master Lin locked himself in the study. No one is allowed to disturb.

When the loyal servant realized something was wrong and led someone to break in, he saw Master Lin sitting at the desk with his eyes closed, but he was already cold and breathless.

 Taishi Lin knew that if he did not die, even if Emperor Hui'an agreed to just demote the Lin family to common people, he would not let the Lin family off easily in private. He had expected this day for a long time, but he didn't expect it to come so early!
