Rumors spread everywhere, and a storm was coming.
Lin Qiu had made cotton-padded clothes and trousers that were much warmer than white cotton.
However, he deliberately did not take them out in a hurry.
Wouldn't it be better to use it for fishing?
A day passed quietly, and the rumors in Chang 'an City became more and more intense.
When a person spread rumors, they might not care.
However, when the whole Chang 'an was like this, Lord Qin's Mansion and Lin Qiu, the supervisor of the East Military Department, became the target of criticism.
As the rumors in Chang 'an City grew, more and more people started to talk about it.
The atmosphere in Chang 'an City was getting weirder and weirder.
Making cotton-padded clothes was an internal affair of the court, but it had already spread among the people.
Lin Qiu couldn't make such a cotton-padded jacket!”
"Lin Qiu is boasting!"
"Lin Qiu is going to make a fool of himself!"
"Lin Qiu is embarrassing the entire King Qin's Mansion!”
"Lin Qiu is inhuman!"
Wait, wait, wait…
Rumors like this spread like wildfire, and they immediately became true.
Everyone said that Lin Qiu did not treat the soldiers guarding the border as humans.
The commoners in the restaurant and on the streets were also discussing this matter.
The entire Chang 'an!
It was as if there was an invisible hand controlling everything from behind. His sharp blade…
It was directed at Lin Qiu, the supervisor of the East Chamber!
Such rumors even spread to the Imperial Palace, causing Emperor Li Yuan to smash many vases in anger.
" Who is it?!"
"Who spread the internal affairs of the court? Do you think I'm dead?! A bunch of bastards!"
Li Yuan was furious.
Everyone in the palace was panicking and did not dare to provoke him, but everyone knew.
This must have been done by one of the officials in the court!
……
Chang 'an City, Prince Qin's Mansion.
Although the outside world was in an uproar and the entire Chang 'an City was in a strange atmosphere, it was still very strange.
However, everything was still normal in King Qin's Mansion!
Lin Qiu sat in a pavilion, holding a cup of tea that he had spent a lot of effort to make.
The fragrance of the tea filled the air, making one reminisce.
"You're still drinking tea here when the fire is burning your eyebrows.!”
Li Er ran over with a bitter face.
"There's a huge commotion outside. Someone's trying to defame us. How can you still be calm?" he said worriedly.!”
"What are you panicking for?" Lin Qiu asked calmly.”
"How can I not panic? This is…"
Li Er was a little anxious, especially when he clearly had a cotton-padded jacket but could not take it out.
They watched as the outside world smeared them.
Li Er's temper was already a little unbearable.
However, Li Er wrinkled his nose at this time. Smelling the tea in Lin Qiu's hand, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Let me try it."
Ignoring Lin Qiu's disgusted gaze, he directly downed the tea in Lin Qiu's hand.
After drinking it, Li Er was stunned for a moment.
It was as if he was savoring the taste of the tea, causing his eyes to shine brighter and brighter.
Li Er was obviously shocked. He said in surprise," Good tea, good tea. Although it's plain, it's bitter and astringent. What kind of tea is this? Why have I never seen it before?!”
"There are many you haven't seen."
Lin Qiu didn't stand on ceremony with Li Er and still gave him a disdainful look.
Li Er could only laugh awkwardly.
Just as he was about to ask about the cotton-padded jacket, a few black figures suddenly appeared behind Lin Qiu.
People from the East Chamber!
Whoosh--
"Reporting to the superintendent, the investigation has been completed.”
A hoarse commander said in a deep voice.
Lin Qiu continued to bask in the sun slowly. She narrowed her eyes slightly and ordered,"Read."”
"Yes, sir!"
The Commander of the East Military Hall slowly opened the name list in his hand. His voice was as cold as a blade as he said word by word,
"The current Crown Prince's Grand Preceptor, Crown Prince's Grand Tutor, and Crown Prince's Grand Protector!”
"The current Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Books, Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, and Commandant Zhe Chong!”
"The current Minister of History, the Head of the Hall of Governmental Affairs, and the Admoniker!”
"Today…"
One by one, the commander spat out the names of the officials.
Li Er's face darkened.
He could roughly guess what the name list was.
However, Lin Qiu was not interested in listening to this. He interrupted and said calmly," I'm not interested in listening to these small fish. Tell me directly, who is the big fish?"!”
"Jiang Anzhe, Minister of Personnel Affairs!”
"The Minister of War isn't one of them?" Lin Qiu asked, not surprised at all.”
"The Minister of War is not involved in this matter.”
"Got it. You may leave."
"Yes."
"Are the people on the list the ones who spread the rumors to smear our reputation?" Li Er sneered after the people from the East Chamber left. The so-called impeachment of our officials?!”
"Of course."
Lin Qiu finally stood up and grinned.
" Let's go," he said coldly as he stretched his back." We've been fishing for a day. We can finally start harvesting!"”
"East Hall, it's time to move out!"
