Lin Yi suddenly bounced up from the bed. He had a feeling that he was in the middle of an unknown. He looked around and found that he was still staying at the yamen. There was no one around.
Could it be a dream? His whole body was sore and numb. The wound on his left arm was wrapped tightly, and his right palm was also wrapped in a clean cloth. Lin Yi could clearly feel the pain coming from his fingertips.
"Your Highness!" You're awake! " Bao Fu Cheng came in from outside. When he saw Lin Yi sitting down, he immediately shouted at him in excitement.
"You're back. How is Su Mu?" Lin Yi said with a hoarse voice, as if his voice was sliding across rough rocks.
"Drink first." Bao Fusheng stepped forward to pour a cup of water for Lin Yi and personally fed it to him.
"Brother Su is still unconscious. She was weak to begin with, and her body is weak. She lost so much blood in one go, and it was all because of the ginseng you gave her before that she managed to come back alive." The floating bag was once again filled with water, and was placed next to Lin Yi's mouth.
Lin Yi drank another cup and felt his throat moisten a little, so he wouldn't feel any pain when he opened his mouth. "How many days have I slept?"
Bao Fu Cheng's expression was ugly as he replied, "Three days, an entire three days. If you don't wake up, I'll send a message to the Emperor. What happened to all of you?"
Lin Yi gave a brief summary of what happened after the bag was taken away.
Bao Fusheng was frightened when he heard that, "You should know that the so-called investigation is only to tell the Yan Clan that you are not in the mood for politics, but you are clearly too diligent."
Lin Yi sternly said, "Behind every case is a large group of commoners. As the Crown Prince, I should have done what I could for them."
"What about Su Mu?" Tell me, you didn't just say that you took a fancy to her talent and wanted her to be your advisor, but right now, I feel that the two of you are … "The smell has changed." It felt a little hard to talk about.
Lin Yi turned the teacup in his hand with a profound look in his eyes. After hesitating for a long time, he finally said, "She will be my Crown Prince's consort."
"You're crazy! The love for Broken Sleeve is not allowed in this world. The Emperor knows that your position as Crown Prince is in danger! " The reason why Lin Yi was the Crown Prince this time was mostly because of his age, and also because he was the eldest son. If anything happened to his character, the Emperor could still decisively change it to the Crown Prince. This time, he came to Jiangnan not only to get rid of the Yan family, but also to prove Lin Yi's ability.
Lin Yi said, "Su Mu is the daughter of the former justice court's official, Su Shao." Although Su Mu was not a male, Su Mu's identity was not a small issue. In the eyes of his royal father and mother, the Crown Prince's consort should be from a noble family in order to help him stabilize the situation, but it was clear that Su Mu was unable to do so.
It was difficult for Bao Fu Cheng to digest this news. After a long while, he asked with a face full of astonishment, "Then, does she have other intentions?" After all, the enmity of extermination lay between the two of them.
"She is an intelligent woman and although she might not be happy with the imperial family, she would definitely view the non-black and white imperial family as her enemies. I also promised her that I would get rid of the Yan Clan and help the Su Clan turn the tables. "
Bao Fu Cheng didn't know what to say. He really wanted to wake Lin Yi up, but he felt that Lin Yi would definitely be able to resolve this issue. Thus, he simply kept silent.
Lin Yi put down his teacup and wanted to get up. "How are things going over there?"
Bao Fusheng supported Lin Yi and said, "The money has already been sent over. I've also met with Governor Hu. He has a feud with the Yan family, and he is also a loyal royalty. It is very appropriate to hand the matter over to him."
Lin Yi held onto the table and walked a few steps, then he felt exhausted and sat down, panting. "Wait until my injuries are better, I'm going to secretly find Hu Rui and then head back to the capital. Tell the world that I've been severely injured and haven't recovered."
Bao Fusheng took Lin Yi's words to heart and said, "Sure."
"Help me check on Boss Wu Cheng, Huang. Rumor has it that he is an expert in raising dogs. This case is closely related to dogs. Let's see if we can get any clues from him." Lin Yi stood up again and slowly walked outside.
Bao Fusheng followed behind Lin Yi and answered. Seeing Lin Yi walk towards Su Mu's room, Bao Fusheng stopped and headed outside, intending to find out what Boss Huang was.
Who knew that Lin Yi would be stopped.
"Your Highness, please stop. He doesn't know the situation, and you shouldn't take advantage of him." Sang Xin stood in front of the door with a submissive expression on his face, but he firmly blocked the way.
"Su Mu was injured because of me. I should have come to visit." Lin Yi held on to the door.
"I know what thoughts you have towards Su Mu. I won't agree." Sang Zhijun thought in his heart.
Lin Yi knew that Sang Xin was no different from a king in Su Mu's eyes. At least for now, the two of them were probably more important than him, so he bowed to Sang Xin.
Sang Xin avoided it and coldly said, "I can't take it."
Lin Yi was a little embarrassed by Sang Xin's sinister attitude, but he also knew that this was a debt left behind by his father, so he had no choice but to take the blame, "The Ye Family's rebellion is a lot of suspicious points, and I personally believe in the Yan Family. The summary punishment is the Emperor's fault, when the Yan Family falls, I promise that we will re-investigate all the cases in recent years."
Sang Xin sneered, "Besides Su Mu, I no longer have anything to worry about. I have nothing to worry about. Whether I overturn the case or not, I don't really care." Do you really not care? Sang thought about the journey he was about to make, and his heart skipped a beat.
Lin Yi admitted that regardless of whether it was Sang Xin or Su Mu, he was always in the wrong when he stood in front of them. "This is something that the royal family should do, and I do not seek Miss Ye's forgiveness."
Sang Xin remained silent for a long time before saying, "In short, you shouldn't offend Su Mu. She is still a girl. She will only keep thinking about how the Su family was exterminated when she was with you. It will be a great burden to her."
"I'll do what I can to make her feel better. If she doesn't come out, I'll let her go." Lin Yi promised.
Sang Xin thought in his heart, "Today I will be returning to the thrush shop, but I will not stay in the thrush shop. I will return to the capital and do what I have to do, I only hope that Su Mu will be fine. I hope that your promise is not a random thing to say." Saying that, he opened up a path.
Lin Yi frowned. "What are you planning to do?"
"No comment." Sang Xin wasn't willing to tell this matter to Lin Yi, nor was he willing to tell Su Mu. For the sake of his remaining shame.
As Lin Yi watched Sang Xin walk away, he actually felt that her steps were a bit unsteady.
