The empresss beautiful eyes turned to Yao Zheng, her expression cold: Sir Yao, do you have anything else to say?
Yao Zheng trembled as he stood up, bowing: Your Majesty, I was mistaken! However, Lin Beifan is not innocent! A few days ago, I saw him indulging in luxury and pleasure, exchanging large amounts of silver from the bank through his servants! So I beg Your Majesty to search Lin Beifans mansion! The truth will be revealed!
This route was not working, so he decided to take a detour.
Not facing the officials directly, but making Lin Beifan reveal himself.
You want to search my house again? Lin Beifan exclaid, Sir Yao, have you beco addicted to searching peoples hos? I just beca the second-ranked scholar not long ago and you co to search my ho! I just moved and youre already searching my ho! Even though youre a censor with the power to supervise officials, you cant act recklessly like this!
Are you afraid, Sir Lin? Yao Zheng asked, indifferent.
The innocent need not fear, of course I am not afraid! But Yao Zheng, you have accused of wrongdoing over and over again, even mud will ignite after being insulted three tis! If you still cant find anything, what will you do? Lin Beifan shouted.
Yao Zheng was urged on by Lin Beifans provocations, and he bowed deeply, saying loudly: Your Majesty, I am willing to pledge my own life as a guarantee. If nothing is found, I will resign and never again involve myself in politics!
The empress clapped her hands and said: Good! Lets go to Lin Beifans mansion again!
About half an hour later, the empress and her officials arrived at Lin Beifans mansion.
Li Shisl Shi was confused when she saw Lin Beifan coming with a group of people.
Husband, who are these people? she asked.
My Lady, these are all civil and military officials of the court and my colleagues! This beautiful and remarkable woman is the current Holy Empress, Empress Wu! Lin Beifan explained. Theyve co to search our ho!
When Li Shi Shi heard that the empress and officials had co to search their ho, she beca weak and afraid.
The thing she had been worrying about had happened so quickly?
Lin Beifan tightly held Li Shi Shis hand and reassured her: Dont worry, theres nothing to worry about! Quickly greet Her Majesty!
Li Shi Shi was accustod to big events and quickly cald down.
She looked up at the beautiful woman dressed in imperial robes and felt a sense of inferiority.
She bowed slightly: This commoner Li Shi Shi greets Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty!
Xiao Cui and Dali also bowed with her.
Everyone, please rise! The empress extended her hand and smiled at Lin Beifan, Such a beautiful and charming wife! Sir Lin, youre so lucky!
Thank you for Your Majestys complints, being able to marry Shi Shi is also my good fortune! Lin Beifan smiled.
Li Shi Shi felt at ease seeing Lin Beifans joking with the empress and officials.
Especially when she heard Lin Beifan admit to being with her in front of the empress and officials, she was filled with sweetness.
The empress looked around and asked in confusion, Is this all the people in your household, sir?
Yes, Your Majesty, theyre all here! Lin Beifan introduced, This is my beloved wife, Li Shi Shi, and these two are the housekeeper and maid nad Dali and Xiao Cui, theyre all very close family!
Why dont you invite more people? the empress asked.
Lin Beifan sighed, With all due respect, Your Majesty, we couldnt afford it before! Although we have so money now, Im used to living a simple life, and a few people are enough for us to be self-sufficient, so we didnt bother!
The empress felt sorry again, Youve worked hard, sir. How about I arrange so palace maids and guards for you?
The officials were confused again!
Damn it! Hasnt she given enough favor? Now shes even sending people! Your Majesty, cant you act more dignified?
Lin Beifan felt flattered, Your Majesty, I appreciate your kindness, but really, theres no need!
As soone who could run away at any ti, how could he bring more people?
Plus, they belonged to the empress, so he dared not accept them!
The empress persisted, Are you sure? The ones I arrange for you will be the best palace maids and the most excellent guards! Dont worry, their wages will be paid by the Imperial Household Departnt, so you wont have to pay a penny!
The officials could not hold back and stood up one after another. Your Majesty, since were already at sir Lins mansion, lets finish the search and go back to the court eting!
Yes, Your Majesty, this is a major matter! Lets not worry about other trivial matters!
Your Majesty, please prioritize national affairs!
The empress was very unhappy. She just wanted to reward Lin Beifan with sothing to win him over, why was it so difficult?
She waved her hand helplessly, Go ahead and search! But be careful, dont ss around and dont break anything here, understood?
Yes, Your Majesty! The officials followed the order and rushed in. Yao Zheng was also a little uneasy, so he went with them to search.
