The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 191
[Chapter 191: The Emperor’s Intention]
Lin Tian was not surprised to hear the verdict, and he stood aside calmly.
Meanwhile, the Lin residence was in a mess.
Lin Zuhua and his group were having dinner, and Tang Chuchu suddenly ran back in a hurry, crying.
Seeing her like this, and Lin Tian not coming back, Lin Zuhua immediately realized what had happened.
Because when Lin Tian went out in the morning, he said he would eat in the store today, and now only Tang Chuchu came back, and she came back crying!
“Miss Tang, what’s wrong with you? What happened?”
Lin Zuhua asked with some confusion.
These girls are all very nice, and they have always been with Lin Tian to help him, so he treats them as half daughters.
“Where’s Tian’er, why didn’t he come back with you? Did that kid bully you? Tell me, I’ll help you deal with him!”
Seeing that Lin Tian didn’t come back, Lin Zuhua didn’t guess that something had happened to Lin Tian, but thought that Lin Tian had bullied Tang Chuchu.
After all, his son was not an ordinary person, how could he get into trouble so easily?
“Master, the master was arrested by the Dali Temple, wuwuwu!”
Tang Chuchu said while sobbing.
“What! Tian’er was arrested by the Dali Temple?”
Lin Zuhua was startled, and the bowl and chopsticks in his hand could not be held steadily, and fell to the ground.
He did not recover for a while, and was stunned at the table. It was Song Zijie who was beside him who spoke.
“Uncle, don’t worry, listen to what happened first, Brother Lin will be fine!”
How could that guy Lin Tian be in trouble? He even dared to tease King Anding, with Lin Tian’s ability, he must be unharmed.
Lu Wan’er also came to Tang Chuchu, helped her sit down, took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears, and comforted her softly.
“Chuchu, don’t be too anxious, the master will be fine, you tell me what happened first!”
Tang Chuchu slowly calmed down, sobbing while explaining the whole story.
“Master must have been framed. The emperor has eaten our hot pot and there is nothing wrong with it!”
Gu Man’er said angrily after hearing this, and even slammed her chopsticks on the table.
“Yes, we eat the hot pot ourselves, and there is nothing wrong with it! Someone must be playing tricks, and they are jealous of our good business!”
Lu Wan’er also echoed.
“Miss Tang, do you know if Tian’er has offended anyone recently?”
Lin Zuhua thought about it and figured out the problem.
After all, no one would frame Lin Tian for no reason, and Lin Tian’s existence has not yet touched the interests of those people!
“Who did you offend?”
Tang Chuchu lowered her head and thought about it, and suddenly thought of something.
“Yes, Zhu Jinquan! A person who wanted to buy our recipe, but the master didn’t sell it!”
“Yes, it must be him. Last time, Lin Kang and a servant in our house went to the Zhu family’s hot pot restaurant to eat and got sick!”
Lu Wan’er thought about what happened that day and spoke out.
“That should be it, but I don’t know who this Zhu family is or what their background is!”
Song Zijie concluded, but he was not familiar with the relationship in the capital.
Lin Zuhua was in deep thought, not speaking, thinking about what to do next.
Being arrested in the Dali Temple means that the store has also been closed down, and it will be difficult to regain its reputation in the future.
“By the way, Miss Tang, did Tianer explain anything?” Lin Zuhua asked.
Lin Tian was arrested in the hot pot restaurant, and it sounded premeditated. Lin Tian couldn’t have been unprepared.
When Tang Chuchu heard Lin Zuhua ask this, she suddenly remembered what Lin Tian had explained.
“Master, the master told you to ask Shun Gonggong for help!”
“Okay, I’ll go now!”
When Lin Zuhua heard that he was going to ask Shun Gonggong for help, he immediately stood up and was about to go out, but he was stopped by Song Zijie on the side as soon as he raised his foot.
“Uncle, you can’t enter the palace now, and the matter has not been investigated clearly yet, so why not think of other ways!”
Everyone was silent for a while, and Song Zijie made sense.
“Ahem, you can come in!”
As they were talking, a weak voice came from behind. It turned out to be Lei Dian helping Lin Kang out.
Lin Kang had just woken up and heard a lot of noise outside. He vaguely heard that something happened to Lin Tian, so he forced himself to come out.
He looked very haggard and spoke weakly.
When Song Zijie saw him coming, he quickly got up and helped him sit down with Lei Dian. Lu Wan’er poured him a glass of water.
“Lin Kang, you said you can enter the palace?”
Lin Zuhua was puzzled. What was the hidden story?
“Yes, you can enter the palace!”
Lin Kang paused for a while after speaking, took out a token from his hand and handed it to Song Zijie who was standing beside him.
“This token was placed with me by the young master. Last time I got into trouble, he knew someone was going to target him, so he gave it to me just in case!”
Song Zijie took the token and took a look. The token was made of gold and tied with a red rope.
There was a golden dragon coiled on it, and on one side it was written “Golden Token bestowed by the Emperor”, and on the other side there was a small word “Seeing this token, it’s like I’m here in person”.
“So it’s an imperial token, with this token you can enter the palace!”
Song Zijie said excitedly. He recognized that this thing came from the palace at a glance.
“I’ll go now, Lei Dian, help me prepare the horse!”
Lin Zuhua couldn’t wait and immediately rushed to the palace with the token.
Everyone had no intention of eating and went back to their rooms.
Lin Kang was still a little weak, so he asked the servants to boil the last dose of medicine.
Lin Zuhua here took the token and went all the way to the palace without any obstacles.
“General Lin, why are you here?”
When Eunuch Shun saw Lin Zuhua rushing over in a hurry, he looked closely and saw that he was still holding the emperor’s token in his hand, so he asked.
“The emperor is discussing matters with his ministers now, so it’s not convenient to see you. If you have something to do, please come another day!”
The emperor was discussing the important matters of this year’s imperial examination with his ministers, and ordered not to let anyone disturb them.
“It’s okay, Eunuch Shun, I’m not looking for the emperor, I’m looking for you!”
Lin Zuhua replied, and his attitude towards Eunuch Shun was also more respectful.
“Oh, what do you want to do with us?”
Eunuch Shun was also confused. Why did he come to him in such a hurry? He thought he was looking for something urgent with the emperor!
Lin Zuhua briefly explained the whole story of Lin Tian’s accident.
“Eunuch Shun, you must help my son!” Lin Zuhua pleaded with some sadness.
He was a great general who protected the country, but he had fallen to the point of asking a eunuch for help!
“General Lin, I know what happened, but I can’t help you. Please go back!”
However, Eunuch Shun refused.
“Since the Dali Temple has stepped forward, it will definitely handle the case impartially. If Lin Tian was framed, the Dali Temple will certainly give him justice. If there is something wrong with his hot pot, he will never be let off easily!”
Eunuch Shun continued, and his meaning was also the emperor’s.
