The view of the pavilion is very good. In addition to the servants who come and send tea, there are two guards guarding the gate of the courtyard. This is undoubtedly a good place for proper discussion.

Lei Li faced Lin Junran's gaze and begged sincerely: "I made a mistake after all, and now I have no face to stay in the court, and I don't want to be controlled by Xu Jie anymore! I just want to get out of here without any hesitation, if so

Xu Jie took out the evidence of his crime and wanted to pursue me. Please protect my wife and children!"

Things about greed can be big or small. If he really wants to handle it seriously, his Lei Mansion will not only face sufficient house searches, but also his family members will be implicated.

Lin Qingran picked up the teacup again. It turned out that Lei Li was planning to resign, but he asked seriously: "Lei Gong, are you really willing to give up your fame and fortune now?"

"I have been in the government for more than 30 years, and now my health is getting worse and worse. What else can I not let go?" Lei Li seemed to have already made a decision, but nodded calmly.

If it weren't for Xu Jie's threat, he would naturally be willing to enjoy the power of the Minister of Works. However, after this incident, he knew that only by withdrawing as soon as possible could he protect himself and his family.

"Yes, but you have to add another petition to the resignation memorial, which is considered to be a remedy for the fault of the ban on iron!" Lin Weiran took a sip of tea and proposed an exchange condition.

Lei Li didn't ask what to add, and immediately bowed and said, "The Lord is following the instructions of Master Lin!"

Things have developed to this point, especially when he is about to resign. Many things will depend on Lin Qingran in the future. Not to mention an exchange condition, even if there are many conditions, he will agree immediately.

The two discussed some details, and then Lei Li said goodbye and left. When he left, he saw Hanlin attendant Xu Wei and Hanlin editor Chen Jingbang coming to his house, and nodded slightly.

Lin Qingran's return happened to be at the most sensitive time node. All parties used these two holidays to frequently exchange, and were already planning some big moves.

Not only is the Lin Mansion very lively, but the Xu Mansion and Gao Mansion also have constant exchanges. Xu Mansion, Gao Mansion and Lin Mansion have become the three central areas of the capital.

The next day, it was just dawn, and the entire capital also woke up.

The air was still filled with the coolness of autumn frost, but among the various yards in the south of the city, officials got up and changed their clothes to prepare for court, and the servants in the mansion also cooperated to get busy.

Because the court meetings are usually very long, many officials wisely choose to have breakfast and then hurry to the Forbidden City to report in a sedan chair.

Lin Weiran stretched and got up on time, and had returned to normal life as a Beijing official.

There were maids who were serving to get up, and there were cooks who prepared exquisite Cantonese breakfasts. There were also sedan chair servants who had been waiting in the front yard, and even a virtuous wife who saw him off.

In the eyes of Wu Qiuyu, he also got into the sedan chair, while sitting in the sedan chair with his eyes closed and resting, but his mind was quickly planning some things.

I thought Xu Jie was already a fallen chicken, but I didn't expect that the old fox had a magic weapon to hold the box. Since Gao Gong's secret letters also had a handle on thunder li, it was hard to guarantee that there would be evidence of other people's crimes.

For the current plan, I am afraid I can no longer look back and forth. I have to work with Gao Gong and Guo Pu to deal with Xu Jie, a person who is harming the country and the people.

Lin Weiran suddenly thought of the formally issued iron ban, and couldn't help but feel so angry that his teeth were itchy. He really didn't understand why historical books praised this guy so much. What kind of "virtuous minister" is this, and he was clearly a treacherous minister who harmed the country and the people.

But he knew in his heart that it was useless to care about this matter now, but he could only continue to look forward and get rid of Xu Jie as soon as possible.

West Chang'an Street has become lively, and hard-working vendors have already set up food stalls to make a living, and white evaporation has emerged in many places.

The main customer groups these stall owners target are not officials, but officials' entourage and sedan chair bearers. These people usually choose to solve their stomachs here.

For them, it would be a very happy thing to make a living through their hard work.

The Forbidden City is like a giant beast entrenched on the edge of West Chang'an Street. The wide square in front of the Myanmar Gate is already full of officials, but they are talking about interesting things that have recently happened.

"The official has met Mr. Lin!"

"The official respectfully invites Mr. Lin Jun'an!"

"Please invite Mr. Lin to the old lady!"

...

When they saw Lin Han wearing first-class official uniforms, the officials who were talking also greeted respectfully, while secretly looking at the Master Lin who returned with his unparalleled achievements.

Lin Weiran nodded and smiled in response to the greetings of the officials.

He hadn't come to the morning court for a while, but now when facing the salutes of these officials, he clearly felt that the officials around him had increased their respect for him.

Lin Qingran knew that this was not an illusion, but that his victory in Shanxi presided over the Shanxi that he went to Shanxi to preside over, indeed won the support of more officials.

Although the Ming Dynasty's officialdom was of interest, many officials still loved this country deeply. He could be said to have defended the dignity of this country alone, and naturally won their respect and even became his own supporter.

After passing through these crowds of people who cast respectful eyes, he came to the front. He thought he was the first to arrive, but he didn't expect Li Chunfang to be one step earlier than him.

"Liuyi, you have made unparalleled achievements in Shanxi. I am honored!" When Li Chunfang saw Lin Weiran, he sighed sincerely.

Lin Xuran knew that the old boss was actually a clear stream, and responded with a smile: "I am grateful to the old master's teachings in the Ministry of Rites, and this time he will do his duty as a minister!"

"If you are foolish, you don't need to be too humble! But no matter how others talk about it, you have to be more attentive about national defense in the future!" Li Chunfang stroked her beard and said seriously.

Lin Xuran was slightly stunned. He just faced Li Chunfang's frank gaze, but he clearly felt the other party's sincerity, and he no longer responded with caution: "Thank you!"

He and Li Chunfang are undoubtedly in the other party's camp. Because the two sides have direct conflicts of interest, there may be a battle next. However, at this moment, Li Chunfang has already expressed that he would support him in the selection of Minister of War.

But at this moment, Xu Jie, who was bathed in spring breeze and Gao Gong, who was arrogant, came, and there was also a movement at the bell and drum tower at the Meridian Gate, and the city gate slowly opened.

Under Xu Jie's leadership, the officials entered the Meridian Gate in an orderly manner and headed towards the Golden Palace through the Jinshui Bridge.
