Chapter 877: Inquire, there must be a ghost

The nomination certificate handed over by Prime Minister Lin was very important, but Xiao Tianyao didn’t do it himself. After confirming that the account books were correct, Xiao Tianyao handed over the matter to Prime Minister Lin.

Will Prime Minister Lin naively think that with just one ledger, he will be able to forget about the past and cancel it?

If it wasn’t for Lin Chujiu’s face, Prime Minister Lin’s family would have finished their game long ago.

When Prime Minister Lin was about to take on such a heavy task, he didn’t push it away or accept it. If he pushes it, Prince Xiao will think that his sincerity was just like that, and if he doesn’t push it, it means that he will offend most of the noble family.

“It’s all because that dead girl refused to intercede with me. If she is willing to speak a few words in Xiao Wangye’s ear, Xiao Wangye will not embarrass me.” Prime Minister Lin doesn’t dare to vent his anger on Xiao Tianyao, he could only vent his anger on Lin Chujiu.

“I wanted to let you off for the sake of father and daughter. Since you won’t even beg for me, your father, then don’t blame me for being cruel.” Thinking of the man in black who found him, Prime Minister Lin thought secretly.

The other party wanted to prove that Lin Chujiu was from the Lin Family of the Central Empire, and he happened to have evidence.

As for how the other party will use Lin Chujiu’s identity, or how the Lin Family of the Central Empire will treat Lin Chujiu, that was not something he has to worry about.

Lin Chujiu was not benevolent, so don’t blame him for being unrighteous.

Back to the mansion, Prime Minister Lin resigned to his fate and took care of what Xiao Tianyao had told him. At the same time, he prepared things related to Lin Chujiu’s life experience and waited for the man in black to hand them over to him.

Xiao Tianyao has always believed that people should not be suspicious, and suspects should not be used. After explaining the matter, he did not ask any more questions. During the day, he still went to the palace to handle government affairs as usual, arguing with the ministers.

Under Xiao Tianyao’s dominance, those old fritters who have been in court have become more obedient recently, but their obedience does not mean that they have surrendered to Xiao Tianyao. Xiao Tianyao would not naively think that being obedient for a while was loyalty, and he did not stop his plan to replace these people.

After Xiao Tianyao took advantage of the Crown Prince’s affairs to replace the guards of the Palace Prison, he took advantage of a brawl between the powerful disciples to replace the nine admirals, replacing all of them with his own.

When the ministers saw Xiao Tianyao’s methods, they couldn’t help being afraid and even hesitated whether to form an alliance again, resist Xiao Tianyao like before, and pick the fault of Xiao Tianyao’s subordinates.

It was impossible for people not to make mistakes. Those who were replaced by Prince Xiao did make mistakes. Prince Xiao has a reason to intercede, but the confidants of Prince Xiao will not make mistakes.

Even if Prince Xiao’s confidants can’t make mistakes, what about those confidants’ family members and friends?

It was very easy for the other party to be an official in the officialdom.

“Either we don’t do this, or if we do it, we have to hit it with one blow. Otherwise, if Xiao Wangye strikes back, we will not be able to bear it.”

“Xiao Wangye is only against the military. He won’t treat us, civil servants, badly. It’s better to hold back for a while.” Some people were willing to confront Prince Xiao, but some were not.

They have seen Prince Xiao’s methods before, and they were too terrified. If possible, they would never want to be enemies with Prince Xiao for the rest of their lives.

“If we don’t make a move, will Xiao Wangye let us go? I heard that Prime Minister Lin is about to make a move recently, and I’m afraid there will be a big move.”

“Prime Minister Lin has always been shameless. If he wants to make a move, many people will suffer.”

“Prime Minister Lin was able to rise to power by helping the Emperor suppress opponents for many years. I’m afraid he will use the same method this time. We’d better prepare earlier.”

These were all private discussions among the ministers, Xiao Tianyao didn’t know about them, but even if he knew, he wouldn’t pay attention to them. He will just ask Prime Minister Lin to fight with them, regardless of who wins.

Three days passed in a flash, Xiao Tianyao prepared the room that Lin Chujiu wanted as promised and sent the Emperor ahead of time.

“You have 5 hours. After 5 hours, you must send the Emperor back.” Xiao Tianyao personally sent Lin Chujiu to a remote palace.

This palace courtyard was very dilapidated. It was located in the northwest corner of the palace. The surrounding area was where maids and eunuchs live. Usually, there were very few palace guards.

Fortunately, this palace courtyard was only shabby on the outside, but the inside was clean and tidy, at least Lin Chujiu was satisfied.

“4 hours, you can come to pick up people.” Counting the time of anesthesia, four hours was enough.

“Well, let’s go do it, don’t be burdened, benwang will wait for you outside.” Xiao Tianyao knew that Lin Chujiu had a secret, so he didn’t propose to go in together but just waited for her outside.

“Okay.” Lin Chujiu looked at Xiao Tianyao blankly and smiled lightly.

For a moment, she suddenly felt that this man was very good, and she couldn’t help but feel excited.

She can do things without any burden because he can bear any consequences.

He waited for her outside, knowing that she has secrets that cannot be shared with others.

This man was very bad when he was bad, but when he was good, he was really good.

“Wait for me!” Lin Chujiu took two steps, stopped again, and said something back.

Wait for me, wait for me to finish the operation, wait for me to figure it out, wait for me to get out of the cage I painted, wait for me to open my heart, and wait for me to accept you again.

“Mmm.” Xiao Tianyao didn’t know what Lin Chujiu was thinking, so he just nodded slightly.

With full confidence, Lin Chujiu walked into the “operating room” that Xiao Tianyao had prepared for her, carrying a small medicine box.

The operating room was completely built according to her needs, and the room was spotless. Lin Chujiu changed her clothes and shoes in the outside room before going in.

The Emperor was lying unconscious on the “operating table”, his complexion looked very good, Lin Chujiu went up to check and made sure that the Emperor was fine, so she took out an anesthetic to anesthetize him.

The Emperor’s illness was blood stasis in the brain, which can be controlled with acupuncture and medicine if the condition was mild, but the Emperor’s condition was already very serious, and surgery was necessary.

Of course, surgery cannot guarantee a cure, or even a survival rate, but Lin Chujiu has checked the Emperor’s condition, and if she operates on the Emperor, the success rate was at least 90%.

90%, it was completely possible to operate, at least she thinks there will be no big problem.

While waiting for the anesthesia, Lin Chujiu shaved off the Emperor’s hair.

Clearing the brain congestion does not require a craniotomy, and the surgical incision will not be too large, but it was necessary to shave the hair, otherwise, the postoperative wound infection will be bad.

Half an hour later, the anesthesia took effect, Lin Chujiu secretly took a breath, opened the medical system, took out the necessary medical equipment and medicines, and began to operate on the emperor.

At the same time, when the Empress and Imperial Concubine Zhou heard the news that Xiao Tianyao sent guards outside the abandoned courtyard in the northwest corner, they sent people out to inquire one after another, but no matter how much they inquired, they couldn’t find out why.

However, the more they couldn’t ask, the more they thought there was a problem.

“Xiao Wangye will not palace guards stand outside the abandoned courtyard for no reason, there must be something abnormal in that yard.” Not to mention the Empress, even Imperial Concubine Zhou can guess it with her brain.

“This is not right, I must go and see for myself.” The more she couldn’t find out, the more uneasy she felt. Imperial Concubine Zhou couldn’t sit still and walked out when she wanted to.

When the Empress heard the report from the people below, she was not in a hurry to send someone to inquire again.

She knew that Imperial Concubine Zhou, that stupid woman, would not be able to sit still… …
