Chapter 932: Chapter 926: How Long to Air Out?

"Initially, it was three days, then it became seven days, and today I’ve heard that someone has laid a bet for ten days," Jin Zijin looked indifferently at him and said, "You think I am deliberately putting on airs by making him wait, don’t you?"

Uh... Whether this was the case or not, Yue Rujing felt that he could not say it that way. He chuckled and said, "Why would I think so? Outsiders don’t understand, and that’s what they might believe. But I grew up with you since we were little. Don’t I know you? You are avenging the old Crown Princess Consort. Her Majesty worked so hard to protect her child, how could we let him just take advantage so easily, right?"

Yeah, now that you put it that way, it is right to keep him hanging. But I pity Eunuch Wan; it has been snowing these days. That old eunuch is also very stubborn, refusing to wait inside the courtyard, insisting on waiting right in front of the gate, and not even in a carriage. Hmph, this old geezer must be doing this on purpose to show others, right? Ah, brother, this old eunuch has no good intentions. By keeping him waiting like this, what would the court officials think? The fight for inheritance hasn’t even started, and they may have already branded you as arrogant and conceited."

"That’s exactly what I want," Jin Zijin said. "That’s the purpose of my actions."

But then Yue Rujing was puzzled. Blinking his eyes, he asked, "What do you mean? Why would you do that? You... should be winning over the court officials, right? It seems like you are muddled."

"No, I want them to think that I’ve offended the Emperor, that even if I am acknowledged as a royal descendant, the Emperor won’t favor me, denying me any chance for the throne!"

He looked at the snowflakes outside, which seemed to grow heavier, and said, "You don’t need to worry about it too much, I have it all planned out. Have all the charges against Yu Jizi been sorted out?"

Yue Rujing solemnly nodded, saying, "Brother, you’re moving too fast. I can’t keep up. Those sour pickled matters of Yu Jizi have been mostly handled."

Jin Zijin nodded, "That’s good. Keep them safe; these are all important pieces of evidence," he sighed and said, "I had intended to deal with him and then make other plans, but I didn’t expect..." His tone shifted, and he continued, "If I withdraw from the Dao Family, you can’t continue to be as lax as you are now. If you can’t handle Huo Li, the master will surely not forgive you when he returns one day."

"Me, not able to handle Huo Li?" Yue Rujing jumped up, feeling a great insult.

"All right, just wait and see if I don’t turn that Huo Li into a subordinate."

Jin Zijin did not pay attention to his boasting, simply saying, "When I’m not here, don’t clash with him head-on; you can’t beat him."

Yue Rujing: "..." Brother, why do you have to tell the truth?

He felt like he took ten thousand points of damage.

...

Because of Gu Youyou’s story, the Emperor ordered the arrest of Lun Tong, known in the jianghu as ’Bai Xiaosheng,’ but Lun Tong had not been in Zhuzhao Country for many years—where could they possibly capture him?

So the one they arrested was actually Lun Yu, who often liked to dress up as her.

Lately, Lun Yu had fallen on hard times, even harboring the thought of silencing Gu Youyou forever.

Whatever happened to not selling each other out, did the revolutionary friendship get eaten by dogs?

Fuming, he disguised himself as a servant delivering coal to the Lin Residence. Seizing this opportunity, he arrived at Gu Youyou’s courtyard.

Xiang Chun directed him to store the coal properly in the cellar, noting that the heating stove in the young miss’s room couldn’t stop.

Lun Yu nodded and bowed to Xiang Chun while fiddling with the coal.
