The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 281

[Chapter 281 Wild Beasts Riot]

“Grandfather, this Lin…”

The eldest prince was interrupted by Liu Zhang before he finished speaking.

“You go down first!”

Liu Zhang whispered to the servants beside him.

The maid tidied Liu Zhang’s clothes, and the servants left the room one after another and closed the door.

After the servants left, Liu Zhang asked the eldest prince to sit on the chair next to him.

“Eldest prince, walls have ears, be careful in everything!”

Liu Zhang deliberately lowered his voice and explained to the eldest prince.

“Yes, yes, I was reckless, thank you grandfather for your teachings!”

The eldest prince still listened to Liu Zhang’s words.

After all, his mother taught him that in this court, only his grandfather could be trusted.

“Tell me, why are you so anxious to find me?”

Liu Zhang took a sip of tea and asked slowly.

Seeing Su Lin’s attitude was so good, he immediately put his status high.

“Grandfather, I’m still angry. Not only did Lin Tian not do anything, he even showed off his power.”

The eldest prince was furious when he mentioned Lin Tian, as if he had a deep hatred with Lin Tian.

But they did have a grudge. Cutting off someone’s financial resources is like killing their parents. The eldest prince was angry for a reason.

“Grandfather, didn’t I say that a little impatience can ruin a big plan? Don’t worry, I have my own plan.”

Liu Zhang touched his beard and said calmly.

“He is just a small minister of the Ministry of Works. It is not easy for me to kill him. He just relied on some strange tricks to confuse the emperor’s heart!”

Liu Zhang had already thought of a countermeasure, but he didn’t expect the eldest prince to be so anxious.

His grandson couldn’t help being angry, so it would be difficult for him to achieve great things, but there was nothing he could do, because he only had that one grandson!

“So grandfather had already made arrangements. It seems that I was too impatient. I hope grandfather won’t mind!”

The eldest prince also realized that he was too anxious. It was all because of that Lin Tian, who was so hated.

Lin Tian was eating well at this time, but suddenly he sneezed, and a large piece of meat that was about to reach his mouth flew away, causing everyone to laugh.

“Since grandfather has already made arrangements, I will take my leave!”

The eldest prince talked to Liu Zhang about some family matters, and Liu Zhang took this opportunity to teach his grandson well.

Seeing that it was getting late, the eldest prince asked Liu Zhang to leave.

“It’s almost time for dinner, why don’t you have dinner here before leaving!”

Liu Zhang saw that the eldest prince was about to leave and it was getting late, so he asked him to stay and have dinner before leaving.

“Thank you, grandfather, but I have to go back to have dinner with my mother. I agreed to eat her fresh dishes.”

The eldest prince declined.

“In that case, then I won’t keep you anymore. Come on, send the eldest prince back to the palace!”

Liu Zhang saw that he declined, and didn’t stay any longer, and directly asked someone to send him back.

The capital was peaceful for a few days, and Lin Tian had to go to Yang’s house to study every day.

After all, the Autumn Examination was just around the corner, so he had to prepare for it. If he missed this time, he would have to wait three years.

Lin Tianke couldn’t wait that long, as time was precious.

At the court meeting, the emperor was listening to the ministers’ reports on official business in various places.

“If you have a report, please report it. If you don’t, please leave the court!”

Seeing that no one had anything to say, the emperor stood up and prepared to leave the court.

“I have something to report!”

The emperor was about to leave, thinking about going back to catch up on his sleep, when suddenly a minister stood up.

“Lord Li, what’s the matter?”

Although the emperor was a little impatient, he still sat down and listened to his report.

“There are suddenly many angry beasts in the Qianjue Land outside the city, running around and harming the people!”

The minister said with a serious face. He had just received the news this morning, so he was ready to report as soon as he entered the court.

“Angry beasts? When did it start?”

Sure enough, the emperor became serious when he heard the news, and even his originally lazy sitting posture became straight, looking directly at the official who was reporting below.

“The news I received this morning started from last night. Some civilians have been injured, but fortunately no murders have occurred!” The minister

said, handing the information he had collected to the eunuch next to him.

The eunuch walked quickly and handed it to Eunuch Shun, who quickly handed it to the emperor.

Sure enough, it was clearly recorded here that the large beast that rarely appeared on weekdays suddenly appeared overnight for some reason.

And it was extremely irritable. After it came out, it went directly to several villages and bit several villagers.

If it hadn’t been discovered quickly, I’m afraid the whole village would have suffered!

“I have now sent people to suppress it, but the beast is really ferocious, and this is not a long-term solution!”

Seeing that the emperor remained silent, the minister added another sentence.

He was indeed worried about the safety of the people, so he risked his life to remind the emperor.

Those beasts were thick-skinned and strong, and several villagers had their hands and feet torn off!

“So, do you have any ideas, my dear ministers?”

The emperor also sighed, but did not say a solution. Instead, he asked the officials present.

If everything had to be solved by him as the emperor, what was the use of having ministers in this hall?

Lin Tianyi frowned when he heard about the wild beasts rioting.

How did it sound so similar to what he encountered in the suburbs yesterday?

The tiger also went crazy for no

reason. If he hadn’t had some kung fu, he would probably have died in the tiger’s mouth. Now it has been found out that he was drugged. If he guessed correctly, it should be the eldest prince who got him infected on the way to the Temple of Heaven.

Why did this riot appear in Qianjue Mountain again?

“I think we can send a few generals to destroy the beasts!”

Another minister stood up and suggested.

When Lin Tian heard his words, he interrupted his thoughts and looked up at him.

The man was standing in a very corner, and he should be a small official.

“But the generals are good at leading troops to fight. If we go rashly, I’m afraid we will lose more soldiers!”

Sure enough, as soon as the minister finished speaking, someone else stood up and objected to him.

Those soldiers are good at destroying the enemy. Who would take on such a job?

“Why not call up the hunters with strong martial arts in the city? Hunters have been dealing with these beasts for many years, so they should have experience!”

Another minister stood up and suggested.

Unfortunately, their opinions were not accepted by the emperor, and the emperor sitting on the top also shook his head helplessly.

Just when everyone was at a loss.

“Didn’t Minister Lin just kill a tiger? I think Minister Lin should have experience. Why don’t we let Minister Lin lead the troops?”

said an official who was usually not very noticeable. He seemed to admire Lin Tian very much, but he glanced at Liu Zhang intentionally or unintentionally.

The two looked at each other.
