649 Get Ready
After the eunuchs and guards left, Zhou Changsheng walked into the mansion. Lin Yuelan came out and smiled at Zhou Changsheng. “congratulations, my Lord!”
Zhou Changsheng frowned. His eyes were sharp and he asked Lin yuelan with a serious expression, ” Miss Lin, what is going on? ”
He was questioning Lin yuelan. How could he have jumped from a seventh-rank County Magistrate to a fifth-rank magistrate so quickly? it was like a dream.
He knew that this credit belonged to Lin yuelan.
However, he had clearly told his son that he only wanted to be a bystander. So what was happening now?
The smile on Lin yuelan’s face was calm and casual. She said very naturally, ” Lord Zhou, what are you so anxious about? I, Lin yuelan, have said that I will support you, and I will keep my word.”
Zhou Changsheng’s furrowed brows didn’t relax as he continued to ask, ” and then? How did you manage to do that?”
Lin yuelan replied, ” it’s very simple! I got someone to bring the criminal Evidence of the original Zhoushan prefect, Ji Zhongcai, to the capital and send it to the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice. In addition, your son, Zhou wencai, found the defender-general, Jiang Zhennan. With Jiang Zhennan’s interference, it’ll be a piece of cake to make Ji Zhongcai fall from power.”
At this point, Lin yuelan didn’t have any qualms about telling Zhou Changsheng her plan.
“After Ji Zhongcai fell, the post of Zhou San Prefecture magistrate became vacant. I wrote a letter to the defender General of the state and asked your son to bring it to him. In the letter, I instructed the masked uncle on what to do. After that, it’s history.”
Zhou Changsheng asked, ” Jiang Zhennan is the person who came here with you before, right? ”
Although they had long known Jiang Zhennan’s identity, they did not reveal it. Therefore, he still wanted to confirm it.
Lin yuelan nodded and said, ” yes.”
After hearing Lin yuelan’s answer, Zhou Changsheng knew that he had to follow their arrangement.
Because even if he didn’t do it for himself, he had to do it for his son.
In any case, the Zhou family would never let them off, so he could only continue to protect his children and grandchildren.
Zhou Changsheng held the Imperial edict and asked seriously, ” then, what should I do next? ”
Since he was still in the game, he could only play accordingly.
Lin yuelan smiled and said, ” my Lord, you don’t have to do anything for now. Just pack your things and be a good prefect of Zhou Shan.”
Zhou Changsheng immediately asked, ” what about you? ”
Lin yuelan said, ” as for me, of course, I’ll follow you, Lord Zhou!”
Zhou Changsheng looked at Lin yuelan in confusion.
…
Back at the restaurant, Zhang yuanbin said to Lin yuelan, ” boss, Lord Zhou is going to Zhou Shan city to take up his new post. Then, our County Magistrate…”
Previously, their restaurant had a close relationship with the Zhou family, so the people in An Ding County didn’t dare to cause trouble.
But now that Zhou Changsheng had been transferred away, he didn’t know what the new county Magistrate would be like. He was worried that if the county Magistrate weren’t a good person, then the benefits of the restaurant would be targeted. This was very disadvantageous to them.
Lin yuelan shook her head and said, ” don’t worry. No matter what kind of person this County Magistrate is, he won’t dare to do anything to our restaurant. Don’t tell me you’ve forgotten that Lord Zhou has been promoted and is now the magistrate in charge of An Ding County. Any intelligent County Magistrate would not go after our restaurant.”
Zhang yuanbin was enlightened. He patted the back of his head and smiled. “You’re right.”
Lin yuelan said to Zhang yuanbin, ” have you finished training the people I asked you to train a while ago? ”
“Alright! Three men and three women!” Zhang yuanbin said, ” they don’t have a family. Therefore, they have nothing holding them back.”
Lin yuelan nodded and said, ” yes, tell them to pack up. They’ll be going to Zhou Shan city soon!”
“Yes, boss!”
Zhou Shan city, in a house.
Master Hu asked Lin Jinmei, ” Miss Lin, when will the boss arrive in Zhou Shan city? ”
Lin Jinmei was holding a book and seemed to be calculating something. When she heard master Hu’s question, she said, ” master will arrive at Zhou Shan in three days!
When master Hu heard that Lin yuelan would be arriving at Zhoushan in three days, he asked anxiously, ” has the boss arranged a place to stay? ”
“Yes, at Fuhua garden on East Street!” Lin Jinmei replied.
“Fuhua Garden, East Street!” Master Hu said in surprise, ” that’s a wealthy District. The houses there are extraordinarily expensive!”
