The carriage is moving forward on Jinhuacheng Street. Because it is the Moon Festival, the streets are also particularly lively and crowded, the carriage is not moving forward quickly.

Jin Ling chatted with Jincheng, who was driving the car, all about major events that happened in the kingdom when he was not in the Northern Jin Kingdom.

Suddenly, Jincheng stopped the horse and stopped the carriage.

Jin Ling had already felt someone stopping in front of the car and poked his head out.

The person who stopped the car was Yang Lisheng, the head of Xintang, with an anxious look on his face and breathing rapidly in his mouth and nose.

"Li Sheng, is there anything wrong?" Seeing him like this, Jin Ling jumped out of the car and walked in front of him.

"Greetings to the young master... Huh!" Yang Lisheng was obviously galloping desperately, still breathing evenly. He looked at Jin Ling, and then looked at Jincheng who was rushing the car with a hesitant expression.

"If you have urgent matters, you don't need to avoid them." Jin Ling knew that what could make Yang Lisheng, the Lord of Xin, would definitely not be too anxious.

"Young Master." Yang Lisheng lowered his voice, "I just received the news that Xu Donglai was secretly executed in the cell of Jinyuan Prison Hall last night."

"Xu Donglai?" Jin Ling didn't remember this person for a moment.

"It's... it's Miss Qinghan's biological father who has been locked in prison." Yang Lisheng's voice became even lower, and he had already glanced at Jincheng and felt a little panicked.

"So it's him." Jin Ling was stunned. When Xu Donglai attacked Lingshan by the Xueyin clan, he left his wife and daughter and ran away alone, which led to Qinghan's mother being killed by the Blood Wolf Cavalry. Qinghan had to stay on the street and suffered a lot. Later, he met Jin Ling and thought that his destiny was changed.

After Qinghan became the eldest lady of Jinyuan, he found Xu Donglai and locked him up in prison. When he thought about the incident that day, he often asked someone to torture him and vent his hatred. This guy has been detained until now, and Jin Ling also thought that Qinghan was just using this to vent his hatred, but he did not expect that he would be executed.

"The secret message from the owner of the torture hall, Guo Yugang, sent someone to me." Yang Lisheng said, "He said that Miss Qinghan went to the torture hall by herself last night, and only stayed for a while before leaving. Because she went there occasionally, she tortured Xu Donglai, so the prison guards didn't care when they heard the tragic cry. Until just now, when they were patrolling the prison, they found that Xu Donglai was dead in the prison, with injuries all over his body, broken bones and blood flowing all over the ground, and the death was terrible."

Jin Ling's heart sank, Qinghan's hatred for Xu Donglai had reached this level. This little girl who looked so beautiful on the surface, hating her was heartbreaking, even if the other party was her biological father.

Thinking about it now, since Qing Han recognized himself as his righteous brother, he had basically never mentioned this father, and he even always avoided him.

"Okay, Li Sheng, I know this." He pondered, "It's good that you and Guo Yugang know this, so let's not spread it."

"Yes, Young Master. Then I'll go back first." Yang Lisheng glanced at Jincheng again and left with some anxiety.

Back on the carriage, the carriage continued to move forward.

"Acheng, you have heard everything I said to Lisheng just now?" Jin Ling said.

"Yes, young master." Jincheng smiled bitterly, "I didn't mean to eavesdrop. It's just that after my subordinates' cultivation level has improved, they have a sharp ear and ear. It's impossible not to listen to it or not."

"What do you think about Qinghan?" Jin Ling asked.

"This is the family matter of the young master and the young lady. As an outsider, it is inconvenient to argue about this matter." Jincheng said.

"Forget it, you're really making things difficult for you for this matter." Jin Ling sighed, raised the curtain of the car, and looked at the sky outside, "Have you noticed that Qinghan has changed a lot recently?"

"Young master, my subordinates cannot comment on this." Jincheng smiled bitterly, "If I had to say a few words, my subordinates could only say that people would change. Especially the eldest lady, she not only wanted to manage the affairs of all kinds of Jinyuan, but also the regent princess of the Northern Jin Kingdom. The burden and pressure on her shoulders were quite large. If she did not have a certain degree of courage, how could she manage these two major businesses well?"

After talking for a while, the gate of the palace in front arrived.

Due to the Moon Festival, the door was decorated with lights and decorations inside and outside, and was newly decorated. Dozens of carriages of all sizes have been parked in the driveway outside the door.

Jincheng stopped the carriage. Then a palace guard came forward and saw that it was him, and he smiled with a smile on his face: "It turned out to be the supervisor of Jincheng, and that was the Lord Jin Ling's arrival!"

Jin Ling got out of the car.

The guards quickly greeted him, very attentive and enthusiastic.

"Sir, you are here!"

"Sir, you are showing your power in Guzhu and expanding territory for the kingdom, which is really amazing!"

"The Lord is like a god descending to earth!"

"No one in the entire Northern Jin Kingdom can compare with the achievements of the Lord!"

......

The flattery made Jin Ling frown.

Jincheng threw some silver dollars at the guards with a smile, "Don't talk about it here anymore. Your Majesty and Your Highness Qinghan are still waiting for the Lord."

"Yes! Yes!" So one guard took the carriage and parked. Another guard led Jin Ling and Jincheng into the palace.

"His Highness Qinghan went out last night? Are you here now?" Jin Ling asked.

"Uh." The guard hesitated for a moment, "I heard that His Highness, the princess, was the palace that he left at night yesterday and returned to the bedroom late at night."

His Royal Highness the Regent Princess left the palace late at night, which is also worth remembering. Things spread in several guard rooms.

When I entered the palace, I made more preparations to welcome the Moon Festival in various places, and newly painted palace walls, newly replaced lanterns, and various decorative ribbons were installed in various places.

The guards led the two to the front of the Political Consultative Hall, which was also the place where the moon worship banquet was held in the palace. Only here can there be enough space to accommodate more than 600 important officials from the Northern Jin Kingdom.

Qinghan had already waited before the palace gate. When he saw them coming, he went on stage intimately like a swallow throwing into the forest, hugging Jin Ling's arm: "Brother, you are here."

Seeing her smiling like a flower, Jin Ling threw a trace of unhappiness in her mind just now.

"The banquet has not started yet, you came too early." Qing Han said.

"It's okay, as a minister, I haven't seen the monarch for a long time. This time I'm going to report on the war situation again and have to offer spiritual medicine. I should have come earlier. This is the etiquette of being a minister." Jin Ling said.

"Brother." Qing Han pouted and lowered his voice, "I'll ask you again, are you really going to hand over the Wen Ling Yuzhu to His Majesty? Don't change your mind?"

"I have decided." Jin Ling touched her shiny black hair, "I know you still have a lot of worries, but for now, this is the best opportunity to completely eliminate the gap between the two surnames of Shanxi merchants. Including this, I have saved Your Majesty three times. If you don't want to lose your morality in front of the people of the kingdom, you must recognize the status of the Jin surname from the bottom of your heart."

"This is an extremely important thing for you and me, and for Jinyuan."
