In the back garden of Lin Mansion, the afternoon sun shines in the clear pond water, and the lotus on the ground is trying hard to stretch the greenery, which shows a sense of tranquility here.

Lin Junran and Sun Jixiang sat opposite each other, Lin Hai stood not far away and waited for instructions, Lin Fu stood in front of the Moon Kong Gate and was on guard, while Lin Jinyuan was handling affairs in the house.

Everything has a cause and a result. Although Jiajing is not a wise ruler, he is not a fool, but an extremely smart emperor.

With Jiajing's intelligence and talent, it is impossible to believe that Yan Shifan really wanted to rebel and then destroy the Yan family and confiscate the Yan family just by just a few words.

The relationship between the king and the ministers for more than 20 years is not something that a small Nanjing censor can instigate, even Xu Jie cannot do it. There must be something he does not know about.

Sun Jixiang had already seen Lin Junran's intelligence. He nodded gently and responded bitterly: "Dong Weng saw this very clearly, but during this period, a variable appeared!"

"What variable?" Lin Qingran's heart moved slightly and immediately asked in confusion.

Because he was under house arrest for nearly a month, he was like a deaf person. This is why he learned from Lin Fu that Yan Shifan was sentenced to death and did not choose to act rashly. Many things in the court will never be as simple as they appear.

Sun Jixiang took a sip of strong tea and revealed the matter: "Today, I value filial piety, this is a thing that everyone knows! The emperor went to Xianling to worship his parents in the middle of this month. The emperor felt that the Eun Hall was too old, so he decided to rebuild the Eun Hall on the spot!"

"I remember that the Eun Hall in Xianling was based on the Jingling system, which cost a considerable amount of silver!" Lin Qingran reached out and picked up the teacup, and his eyebrows frowned slightly.

Unlike later generations who could easily build a tall building, building a palace at this time was quite expensive. Not only did it take a large number of workers, but it also required cutting down tall golden nanmu from the south to transport it to the capital. Each beam and pillar was more expensive than gold.

Sun Jixiang sighed lightly and responded bitterly to Lin Qingran: "Xu Jie did not lead all officials to dissuade him at that time, but immediately ordered the Ministry of Works to verify the cost of rebuilding the Yeen Hall, but the cost was as high as 730,000 taels!"

Lin Junran was already mentally prepared, but when he heard that the Eun Palace would cost 730,000 taels, he couldn't help but think that Hu Zongxian extracted 33,000 taels from the Jiaxing Treasury to dismiss the wolf soldiers and the families of the injured and injured soldiers, and ended up being impeached and dismissed. He felt quite complicated.

Sun Jixiang kept looking at Lin Qingran and added seriously: "I specially asked Wang Honghai to help me search the information. This cost is 30% higher than the previous construction of the Yonen Temple!"

"Which is going to sing about Xu Jie? He, the master of Licorice Pavilion, could not do anything that offends people. Not to mention getting 730,000 taels for the emperor, I'm afraid that it won't even get 70,000 taels, right?" Lin Qingran knew that Xu Jie would not make money as freely as Yan's father and son, and analyzed in confusion.

Sun Jixiang gently put down the teacup and said helplessly to Lin Junran: "This is actually what Xu Jie wants! In the second memorial to impeach Master Yan Ge, Lin Run focused on Yan Nian, the servant of the Yan family, and the Peng Kong family was seeking a billion yuan in investment. Yan Shifan once threatened that the court was not as rich as me!" Speaking of this, he added bitterly: "Dongweng, Xu Jie seems to be digging a pit for himself, but in fact he is digging a grave for the Yan family!"

"In this way, even though the emperor knew that Yan Shifan was wronged, he would still acquit the Xu Jie to confiscate the Yan family. First, the emperor could not tolerate the Yan family that was rich enough to rival the country; second, only by confiscating the Yan family can the emperor have enough silver to build the Yan Palace in Xianling!" Lin Weiran took a sip of tea slowly, turned his head and looked towards the direction of Xiyuan.

If it were just because of the impeachment of Jiangnan Censors, the emperor would not have been so confused, and he really killed the Yan family, who was loyal to the past. It was just that the Yan family was rich enough to rival the country, and Jiajing needed a large sum of silver to rebuild the Yien Hall of Xianling for his parents, everything seemed to be explained.

Sun Jixiang also collected a lot of information before he found out the whole story. He also warned seriously: "Dongweng, Xu Jie is a kind person, and you must be careful in your actions in the future!"

"I know that if Xu Jie had the chance, he would not have any mercy at all, and would also kill me!" Lin Qingran also knew it and responded bitterly.

Although later generations praised Xu Jie for pushing Yan Shifan to the top, this was to eliminate traitors for the country, but Lin Weiran did not think so.

If Xu Jie really took into account the righteousness so much, he should have chosen to start when the Yan family was in trouble with the government, rather than waiting for the tiger's teeth to be pulled out for several years. Then he suddenly remembered "eliminating traitors for the country" and beat the fallen Yan family to the declining Yan family.

Sun Jixiang looked at Lin Weiran and listened to the warning, but he did not say much.

"Mr. Sun, what do you think I should do now?" Lin Qingran held the teacup from the table and asked for advice seriously.

Sun Jixiang has been thinking of a solution for Lin Junran these days, and said seriously in line with Lin Junran's gaze: "Now the emperor wants to rebuild the Yien Hall of Xianling for his parents, and he has already acquiesced to Xu Jie to copy the Yan family's wealth. Yan Shifan can't save him!"

"Yan Shifan was able to be executed on the charge of 'framed loyal and kindness', but the court sentenced him to the crime of treason without any evidence. This is a vain of the Ming Dynasty's tribute. If this example is opened, there will be endless troubles!" Lin Yanran frowned slightly, and still expressed his objection in his heart.

Sun Jixiang said bitterly: "Dongweng, the family of heaven is ruthless and the court is unruly! If Dongweng reached out to save Yan Shifan at this time, he would not only offend Xu Jie, but also offend the emperor. Please be careful!"

"There should be good news in Jiangxi, right? Can't we really use Yan Shifan's affairs to disrupt the court?" Lin Junran was also an independent person and asked seriously.

In the initial plan, he was actually prepared and even planned to beat a slap behind Xu Jie. However, the plan could not keep up with the changes, because he was under house arrest for nearly a month because of the presiding exam.

Sun Jixiang sighed heavily and said to Lin Junran bitterly: "Dongweng is a god of precautions. Good news is indeed coming from Jiangxi, and you can do it at any time! However, Dongweng was imprisoned in the tribute court for nearly a month, and Yan Shifan has been sentenced to crimes by the court. If he takes action now, he has lost the best opportunity. It would be better to watch it on the wall!"

"Mr. Sun, I don't want to stay out of the matter! But this matter is probably not over yet. Xu Jie may use this to point the finger at my father-in-law, and there will be a major power reshuffle in the court!" Lin Qingran took a sip of tea and said the thing he was most worried about.

Under Xu Jie's promotion, Yan Shifan was punished for being rebellious. Not only would Yan Song be liquidated, but those who had close contacts with Yan Shifan in the past would be attacked by censors.

But his father-in-law also went to the Ministry of Justice. Once he was found guilty of being intent on rescuing the traitor Yan Shiqiu by the censor, he would be in great trouble.
