Lin Quan had a house outside the palace where he could contact the spies who were sent out.
Spies come and go frequently, and if the meeting point is placed in the heavily guarded palace, it will cause great trouble.
It was almost noon, and Lin Quan was resting in a small room. He had just returned from outside the city.
The young eunuch sent by Zhao Yanxun to find someone had already appeared outside the courtyard gate.
"Open the door quickly, open the door quickly!"
The door creaked open, and a man with a ferocious look appeared inside.
But when this person saw that the person who came was a eunuch, and there were two guards behind him, a smile immediately appeared on his face.
The man opened the door wide and asked, "I wonder what important business you have here, father-in-law?"
"Is Eunuch Lin in there?"
"Here, resting!"
"Take me to him quickly!"
"Father-in-law, please come in!"
If only this young eunuch came, the man would have to think carefully about whether to take him to see Lin Quan.
But the young eunuch came with his guards, which means that he was probably ordered by the king, and the man guarding the door did not dare to delay.
This house is not very big, but there are quite a lot of people inside. The eunuchs on duty plus other people from various religions and professions, there are at least thirty or forty people in the house.
All the way into the inner house, the vicious man stopped, pointed to a room inside and said, "Eunuch, Eunuch Lin is resting in there!"
"I got it, go down!"
After the man retreated, the young eunuch asked the guards to wait where they were, and then trotted towards the room where Lin Quan was resting.
After knocking on the door twice, Lin Quan's voice rang out from inside.
"Who is it?"
"Eunuch Lin, slave Wang Jin!"
After a few breaths, the door was opened, and Lin Quan appeared inside with a gloomy face.
Anyone whose nap is interrupted will not be in a good mood, not to mention that Ma Jin is not one of his own.
"Eunuch Lin, the prince has summoned you to see you!"
Just these words made Lin Quan's sleepiness disappear completely.
"Do you know what's going on?"
"This slave doesn't know. I only know that when the prince came out of Feiyuxuan, his face was very gloomy!"
Feiyuxuan, Lin Jingyu's palace, what could happen here?
In Lin Quan's impression, Lin Jingyu has always had an indifferent temperament. Logically speaking, this is the place where trouble should be least likely to happen.
"Let me change my clothes!"
…………
Half an hour later, Lin Quan appeared outside Jinshen Hall.
Looking at the young eunuch on duty at the entrance of the main hall, Lin Quan asked: "Where is the prince?"
"Reporting to father-in-law, we are having lunch!"
After taking a deep breath, Lin Quan stepped into the hall and walked around the outer aisle of the hall towards the dining room.
Even he, the eunuch who was close to Zhao Yanxun, was always trembling with fear every time he came to see him.
Arriving outside the door of the dining room, Lin Quan knelt directly outside the threshold, kowtowed and said: "Slave Lin Quan, kowtow to the prince!"
At this time, Zhao Yanxun was eating, and Huo An was the only one serving him.
There are two dishes and one soup on the table, which can be considered very simple, but it is also something that ordinary people cannot compare to.
"Get up!"
"yes!"
After getting up from the ground, Lin Quan took small steps across the threshold, and finally stood opposite Zhao Yanxun with his waist bent.
Putting down the bowl and chopsticks, Zhao Yanxun said calmly: "I heard something today, saying that the people who are farming are still hungry while working outside!"
As soon as he heard this, Lin Quan almost understood his mission.
Lin Quan replied: "I don't know who is so bold as to dare to tamper with food!"
Zhao Yanxun said in a cold tone: "What I hate most is to deceive the superiors and conceal the truth from the subordinates. This matter has been handed over to the people of Chang Shisi to investigate!"
"Don't be idle. They are investigating from within the government offices, so you start investigating from the people!"
"Slave, take your orders!"
"This matter must be investigated strictly. No matter how many people are involved, we must find out!"
"yes!"
“Just do the work!”
Lin Quan kowtowed again, but after getting up, he did not leave in a hurry. Instead, he raised his waist and asked, "I dare to ask the prince, I don't know where I heard the news from the prince, so I can follow the clues and find out!"
"Xiao Qi in the Jade Concubine Palace!"
"Slave, check it out right now!"
After saying that, Lin Quan carefully exited the room and quickly walked out of the hall.
Today, the eunuchs in the palace are roughly divided into two factions, relying on Lin Quan and Huo An respectively.
For example, Wang Jin, who just sent the message, is Huo An's younger brother.
This also profoundly explains the old saying, where there are people, there will be rivers and lakes.
He had no right to transfer the eunuchs on duty at Jinshen Palace, so he could only rush to the eunuch duty room, select his six eunuchs, and rush all the way to Feiyuxuan.
He had obeyed the king's order, so he could naturally enter Feiyu Pavilion without being summoned.
Lin Quan glanced around the courtyard without saying a word. The little eunuch standing beside him said, "Who is Xiao Qi?"
All the maids in the garden looked at the girl holding a broom in the corner.
The little eunuch who spoke said coldly: "Take it away!"
Several young eunuchs trotted forward and lifted Xiao Qi up directly.
At this time, Xiao Qi realized from his confusion and immediately shouted: "I won't go... I won't go, it's unfair!"
"My dear, please help me..."
"Slap your mouth!" the little eunuch who spoke sternly scolded.
Then Xiao Qi was slapped twice, and her voice suddenly became quieter.
But being taken away by Lin Quan, it was basically a narrow escape. Xiao Qi kept struggling to survive, shouting for help as much as possible.
However, due to Lin Quan's fierceness, several maids and eunuchs in the garden did not dare to step forward to stop him, but someone ran into the palace to report the news.
Xiaoqi struggled hard, but was dragged to the gate of the palace by several eunuchs.
"Eunuch Lin, are you arresting people here in this palace without even saying hello?"
Lin Quan had already stepped out of the palace gate, but when he heard the voice coming from behind, he had to turn around and answer.
"My queen, help me, my queen, please help me!"
Standing on the steps outside the palace, Lin Jingyu and Xiao Qi were five or six feet apart at the entrance of the palace, but they could still see the red palm prints on each other's faces.
Even though Lin Jingyu was an indifferent person, she felt angry in her heart at this moment, so her questioning tone just now was harsh.
Stepping into the palace gate again, Lin Quan cupped his hands and said: "My dear, this servant is following the order of the prince to wait for this person to go back and question him!"
"Then I would like to ask, do you beat people when the prince asks you to take them?"
Lin Quan concluded for a moment, "I am just a lowly and rough servant. How can you always have trouble with me?"
This is what makes Lin Quan so domineering. Only in front of Zhao Yanxun would he consider himself a humble slave.
Seeing that Lin Quan didn't answer, Lin Jingyu then asked: "The prince asked you to take her back for questioning. Do you mean to treat her as a prisoner or as a witness?"
"Your Majesty, you have to ask questions before you can understand this!" Lin Quan answered with his waist raised.
"Then I will tell you that when the prince asked Xiao Qi just now, he spoke softly and harmoniously!"
Speaking of this, Lin Jingyu's voice became colder and colder: "You can take her away today, but if you deliberately create difficulties, I will also uphold justice for the people of Feiyuxuan!"
Her words moved everyone in Feiyuxuan so much that they added many more loyal slaves.
"Your Majesty's teachings, please remember them carefully!" Lin Quan replied in a deep voice.
"May I ask, my lady, can I take people away now?"
Lin Jingyu did not answer, but said to Xiao Qi: "Xiao Qi, if anyone bullies you, you have to remember it!"
After saying this, Lin Jingyu turned around and entered the palace, while Lin Quan led the people out of the palace door.
After walking out of the palace gate, the eunuch who had just ordered to follow Lin Quan quickly said in a bad tone: "Eunuch, for the sake of a slave, this Jade Concubine..."
Before he could finish speaking, Lin Quan stopped and slapped the man twice.
"You bastard, are you the one who can make such irresponsible remarks, Madam?"
After saying this, Lin Quan kicked the man to the ground again.
Today's accident was, firstly, because he acted too hastily, and secondly, because he never expected that Lin Jingyu would protect a maid in this way.
These three people in the harem are really more difficult to maintain than the other... Lin Quan secretly complained.
