In the afternoon, Meixiang Building was crowded with people. Yin's mother waved a handkerchief in her hand, joking and connecting with some familiar guests.

A little maid walked up to her and whispered a few words. Mother Yin nodded imperceptibly, then she said a few words to the guests and walked quickly upstairs.

…

Mother Yin walked into the elegant room on the third floor alone and saw a fat man named Du Ruo sitting behind a small desk waiting for her.

Seeing Mother Yin come in, the fat man quickly stood up and said respectfully: "Master, both Lu Zhuoyuan and Bai Yuan are dead."

Mother Yin nodded, then sat down behind the desk opposite, raised her head and asked, "Why didn't you bring Ya'er back?"

Du Ruo: "I want to bring her back, but she is worried that leaving at this time will reveal her identity, so she will stay in the White House temporarily and let you find a legitimate reason to rescue her."

Yin's mother nodded and praised: "Ya'er is still attentive and even thought of this small flaw."

After a pause, Mother Yin asked again: "Is everything going well at Green Willow Villa? How is Lin Ruhai's nephew doing?"

Du Ruo smiled and said: "Master Lin has both courage and strategy. He is indeed a young hero favored by the old miracle doctor."

"Oh, please tell me in detail."

Du Ruo told Yin's mother in detail how Lin Yun led his troops to attack Green Willow Villa.

Speaking of Lin Yun's fraud at Green Willow Villa, but Bai Xiong discovered his identity and was almost injured, Du Ruo said with lingering fear: "If his entourage hadn't rescued him in time, I would have had no choice but to show up to save him.

.”

Mother Yin didn't mind this matter. She knew Du Ruo's skills. With him around, Lin Yun was definitely not in danger. She was very interested in the kind of firearm that Lin Yun used to kill Bai Xiong.

After Du Ruo finished narrating, she asked curiously: "You said that the fire blunderbuss used by Mr. Lin can fire projectiles without a match rope?"

Du Ruo nodded hurriedly and said: "That's true. The firing time of that kind of fire gun is very short. If it is used on the battlefield, it will definitely achieve amazing results."

Mother Yin said thoughtfully: "How about you try to get someone to inquire over there in the capital to see if that kind of fire blunderbuss has been equipped with the army?"

"I will make arrangements later."

After a pause, Du Ruo said worriedly: "Master, if Bai Yuan dies, will Lin Ruhai be punished for it?"

Mother Yin smiled and said: "Don't worry, Lin Ruhai raided Bai Yuan's house. I don't know how happy the Daming Palace man is. No matter how angry the Supreme Emperor is, he will protect Lin Ruhai to the death."

Du Ruo breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this and said: "With the words of the master, I feel relieved. By the way, Ya'er, how do you want to rescue her?"

"This is easy. If you ask Mei Gu to come forward and ask for help from Mr. Lin, just tell her that Ya'er is her natal niece and was kidnapped by that old thief Bai Yuan. He will definitely come to the rescue."

Du Ruo said worriedly: "Will this expose Aunt Mei's identity?"

Mother Yin: "It's okay. The plan for Lin Ruhai has been cancelled. From now on, Aunt Mei will take care of the princess nearby instead of having to perform other tasks."

Du Ruo: "I think it's better not to disturb Mr. Lin about this matter. We can easily redeem Ya'er by spending some money."

Mother Yin shook her head and said: "I don't want Mr. Lin to rescue Ya'er, but I want Ya'er to stay with him and become his helper."

"Is this okay?"

"Try it. With Ya'er's intelligence, there may be a way to impress him."

"All right."

…

It was not until late in the evening that Lin Yun heard the news that Lin Ruhai had returned home.

Not long after, Lin Ruhai sent someone to inform him and asked him to meet him in the study.

When Lin Yun walked into Lin Ruhai's study, he saw him engrossed in writing something.

He stood aside and waited for a while. Only when Lin Ruhai finished writing, did he step forward and salute: "Uncle, I'm here."

Lin Ruhai nodded, then raised his hand to rub his temples and said, "Bai Yuan is indeed dead."

Lin Yun hurriedly asked: "Did he commit suicide?"

Lin Ruhai: "According to the servants of the Bai Mansion, he died of fright when he heard that the mansion was besieged."

Lin Yun said doubtfully: "No way, he has also been a second-grade official, can't he not even be able to bear this little fright?"

Lin Ruhai: "I heard that he has a heart disease, and because he is old, it is understandable that he can't bear the sudden bad news."

Lin Yun understood as soon as he heard that this cause of death was more beneficial to Lin Ruhai, so he wanted to make it happen to avoid the bad reputation of an old official who was forced to die.

He quickly changed the subject and said, "Uncle, how much stolen money was seized from the White House?"

Lin Ruhai: "There are more than 6.8 million taels. Adding antiques, calligraphy, paintings and jewelry, the total will definitely exceed 8 million taels."

Lin Yun took a breath when he heard this. The Bai family looked low-key, but they were making a fortune. With so much stolen money, Emperor De was afraid that he would die of joy when he found out about it. However, things were not going well for the Supreme Emperor.

.

He thought for a while and said to Lin Ruhai: "Uncle, how about I go back to Beijing and ask Chief Lu Shan to help you think of a way to get out of trouble."

Lin Ruhai shook his head and said: "You can't interfere in this matter. I will send someone to Mr. Lu to send him a letter and explain the situation to him. You go back and make preparations and go to Jinling in two days."

Lin Yun asked doubtfully: "Did uncle send me away because he was worried that he was in danger?"

Lin Ruhai smiled and said: "What danger can I put in? Bringing Bai Yuan to justice, even if there is a suspicion of forcing the old minister to death, is at best an overreach, and the merits and demerits are equal to each other."

"Then why does uncle urge me to go to Aurous Hill?"

Lin Ruhai: "After all, this matter involves a fight in the court. Your identity is sensitive, and I don't want you to be involved."

Lin Yun: "Okay. My nephew will go to Jinling to study in a few days."

Lin Ruhai handed the letter he had just written to Lin Yundao: "This is the letter I wrote to Cao Shaoqian, the wine worshiper of the Imperial Academy of Yingtian Mansion. If you go to see him with this letter, you should be able to study in the Imperial Academy."

"OK."

…

After coming out of Lin Ruhai's study, Lin Yun was still a little uneasy. He had a feeling that Lin Ruhai was preparing for the worst when he sent him away. But what is the worst result? Is it demotion or demotion?

Lust to the end?

Just when Lin Yun was having a headache thinking about it, he suddenly heard a faint cry coming from his ears.

Following the sound, Lin Yun found a woman squatting on the ground beside the rockery not far away, crying softly.

He hurriedly walked over and took a closer look, and saw that the woman squatting on the ground crying was an acquaintance. It was Sister-in-law Cai who had led him the way when he came to Lin Mansion.

Seeing Lin Yun coming, Sister-in-law Cai quickly stood up, wiped away her tears and said, "Master nephew, I'm sorry to bother you."

Lin Yun hurriedly asked: "Sister-in-law Cai, what's wrong with you? Are you encountering some difficulty?"

Sister-in-law Cai hurriedly said: "No, no, I was just blinded by the sand."

Lin Yun said speechlessly: "If you want to hide it from me, you have to make up a better reason. Tell me, what kind of trouble did you encounter?"

Sister-in-law Cai hesitated for a moment and then said: "Master nephew, a niece from my natal family was bought by the Bai family to be a maid. Today, I heard that the Bai family committed a serious crime of ransacking the house, and I was worried that my niece would be imprisoned.

That’s why I cried sadly.”

Lin Yun: "This is easy. You tell me the name of the niece, and I will ask Xiao Mo to find General Dong and pick her out."

Sister-in-law Cai quickly knelt down and kowtowed to Lin Yun and said, "I would like to thank my nephew for rescuing my niece."

Lin Yun hurriedly helped him up and said, "You're welcome. You've taken care of my uncle for so long, so I should do this little favor for you. Let's do this. I'll ask Xiao Mo to go with you and pick him up directly.
