Chapter 345: Protective Family (2)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Captain Lin bowed to Emperor Jing Xuan and greeted Su Yuan, “Minister Su.”

They did not become in-laws, but they did not become enemies.

Who knew that Su Yuan would ignore him?

Captain Lin looked confused.

Emperor Jing Xuan said calmly, “Captain Lin, Minister Su has made a complaint against you.”

Captain Lin was even more confused.

He didn’t seem to have offended Su Yuan, right?

What was Su Yuan going to do with him?

If anyone were to receive a complaint, it would be the Leng and Wei families!

Seeing Captain Lin’s expression, Emperor Jing Xuan knew that he had not heard about Lin Ruyue.

Emperor Jing Xuan said, “Minister Su, you didn’t teach your daughter well and offended the Grand Empress Dowager.” Captain Lin was really baffled.

“What makes you say that?” he asked in surprise.

Su Yuan snorted coldly. “Captain Lin, why don’t you go home and ask your good daughter?”

Emperor Jing Xuan actually had a headache. It was not easy for Wei Ting to stop causing trouble. He was now serving as a teacher in exchange for not being grounded. Then, Su Yuan caused trouble again.

As the king of a country, what nonsense did he have to deal with all day long?

Eunuch Fu observed his expression. Seeing that Emperor Jing Xuan had no intention of stopping him, he told him what had happened near the Bright Moon Pavilion.

“That’s what happened!” Su Yuan said.

Su Yuan refused to mention that Su Xiaoxiao had pushed Lin Ruyue into the water for personal reasons. He said righteously, “My niece really couldn’t stand it anymore and was afraid that your daughter would say something that would kill her, so she helped her in a moment of desperation!”

Captain Lin was speechless. Did she help by pus.h.i.+ng his daughter into the water?

Was he sure this was a favor?

Not a lesson?

How could anyone distort the truth like this these days?

Su Yuan only emitted one message—My niece is too kind. Hurry up and thank her!

Captain Lin was about to vomit blood.

He really did not know that Lin Ruyue had caused such huge trouble in the Palace Academy.

Actually, anyone with discerning eyes could tell that Lin Ruyue was scolding the daughter of the Protector Duke who had returned from the commoners, but she had b.u.mped into the Grand Empress Dowager. The Grand Empress Dowager was indeed furious.

This was a little confusing.

It was impossible to absolve Lin Ruyue. It would be akin to challenging the Grand Empress Dowager.

Although the Empress Dowager did not have any real power, she was a cover for the royal family. Back then, when the late emperor inherited the throne from his nephew, it attracted countless doubts.

The late Emperor’s lineage did not dare to let the Grand Empress Dowager suffer any grievances.

At least on the surface, they did not dare to.

Captain Lin braced himself and took the blame. “I… have failed to teach my daughter… I’m willing to be punished!”

Emperor Jing Xuan said seriously, “You shall be fined half a year’s salary. In addition, you don’t have to worry about supervising the Divine Bow Camp for now. You should spend more effort teaching your children.”

It did not matter if his salary was fined or not, but supervising the Divine Bow Camp was a lucrative job!

Moreover, the Lin family had been gaining momentum in the past two years.

They had a chance of replacing the Lu family as one of the eight great families thanks to his supervisory work at the Divine Bow Camp.

Wasn’t this all for naught?!

Emperor Jing Xuan asked indifferently, “Why? Do you think my punishment is too heavy?”

Captain Lin cupped his hands and knelt down. “I don’t dare. I’m willing to be punished!”

Emperor Jing Xuan continued, “Minister Su, I’ll leave the Divine Bow Camp to you.”

“Huh?” Su Yuan was stunned.

Emperor Jing Xuan said, “Why? Are you unhappy?”

Su Yuan hurriedly bowed and said, “Thank you for your high regard, Your

Majesty. I’m flattered!”

He was only here to seek justice for his little niece. How did he receive a fat job in retain?

Captain Lin returned to the residence angrily.

“Call Third Miss over!”

Lin Ruyue had suffered a lot today and was waiting for her father to come back and seek justice for her.

When ordinary people heard that their parents wanted to see them after causing trouble, their first reaction would definitely be guilt. Lin Ruyue’s mind was strange. She actually felt that she could complain to her father.

Su Daya and Hu Biyun were both bad people!

“Father…

Her eyes turned red and she was about to complain.

Captain Lin slapped her. “Evil creature!”

After the Old Marquis was bedridden, Su MO spent much more time in the military camp than before.

He did not come from the Marquis of Zhenbei’s Estate to pick Su Xiaoxiao up every day. He came from the military camp.

After sending Su Xiaoxiao back to Pear Blossom Lane, he returned to the military camp.

The difference was that he did not come out to train tonight.

The soldiers felt strange.

The eldest young master, who had trained harder than anyone else, suddenly became lazy.

“Is he not in the military camp?”

“Yes, I saw Eldest Young Master come over with my own eyes. If you don’t believe me, look. The lights in his tent are on.”

“That’s right. I even delivered food to Eldest Young Master tonight!”

“Did something happen…”

The few of them hurriedly went to Su Mo’s tent.

Listening to his breathing, he was alive.

Looking at the shadow… he was definitely not dead.

The few of them squeezed their heads through the gap in the curtain curiously.

Then, the rough men were all dumbfounded.

Their eldest young master was actually sitting obediently in the tent… copying books one by one?!

Su Xiaoxiao went home for dinner and went to the first hall with her three cute tails.

The three little ones went to the backyard to play obediently.

They were very clingy to Su Xiaoxiao, but they never disturbed her when she was doing things.

The lobby was a little cold, and the atmosphere was a little strange.

On the first day of the opening, the consultation fee was not charged and the medical fee was halved. Coupled with the wave of publicity last night, logically speaking, even if today’s business did not explode, it would not be so deserted.

“What happened?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.

The others did not dare to say anything and only lowered their heads, looking guilty and ashamed.

“Let me explain.” Physician Fu sighed. “When we first opened, there were indeed many guests. A few of them were introduced by the onlookers last night, but at noon, a patient suddenly ran over and said that our Number One Hall’s medicine had spoiled his son’s stomach. He caused a commotion for a long time, and the guests were all frightened away. That’s not all. The patient our Number One hall treated yesterday’s mother stood up for us, but she was blamed. People said that we were in cahoots. They said she was acting to smear the reputation of Benevolence Hall.”

“Ah Zhong immediately went to report to the officials. When the officials came over, they slipped away. But the customers… have long been chased by them.”

“It’s all my fault for being useless.”

Physician Fu lowered his head in self-reproach. “If you were here today, it definitely wouldn’t be like this.”

He had seen Su Xiaoxiao’s ability. No one could play tricks in front of her.

Physician Fu was a kind, upright, and outstanding doctor, but he was not a shrewd businessman.

Otherwise, back in town, with his medical skills, as long as he knew some marketing and compet.i.tion, he would have long s.n.a.t.c.hed all the business of Hui Hui Hall. “It’s not your fault.”

Su Xiaoxiao.

She had been careless. She should have found a shopkeeper in advance. If she didn’t go to school, she could be the shopkeeper—

“I’ll go to Grandma Zhou’s house tonight and ask her to introduce a shopkeeper.”

Physician Fu sighed. “It’s not easy to find a shopkeeper. If we meet someone capable, just the price alone won’t be able to move them. Our new medical center doesn’t have any fame or status. No powerful shopkeeper is willing to come over.”

He knew these principles.

He was right. A good shopkeeper was hard to come by.

Just as everyone was at a loss, a familiar voice suddenly sounded at the door.

“Excuse me, are you hiring a shopkeeper here?”

Everyone looked over.

Who was this person?

Su Xiaoxiao said in a daze, “It’s you…”
