Chapter 441: The Pure-hearted Minister is Hot (22)
Ju Yuzhu sent them to live in a very old courtyard.
"Brother Lin, please stay here for now. I will help you find a good place to live in the future."
The courtyard that Sang Tian recognized was where Ju Yuzhu lived when he was still an assistant minister.
The current Ju Yuzhu is no longer the same as before. The emperor values him now as a high-ranking tutor, second only to the emperor and above everyone else.
Lin Yuqing was very touched. None of the officials who had come to curry favor with him before came to see him after he got into trouble.
It turns out that people's true nature can only be seen when their own interests are threatened.
The yard is not big and has only two rooms for living and a small one which is the kitchen.
Bai Lian was afraid that Sang Tian would snatch the largest room away, so she quickly took her and Lin Yuqing's bags and ran into the largest room.
Sang Tian didn't move either but fixed her eyes on Lin Yuqing.
Without waiting for Lin Yuqing to speak, Bai Lian came out crying, hugged his waist and began to cry: "Husband, you know my health has always been poor. Now you have encountered such an unfair thing. What should I do if you are not by my side at night?"
Lin Yuqing's sense of guilt soared after hearing Bai Lian's words. He held Bai Lian in his arms with some heartache.
He had indeed treated her unfairly. She had already had a hard life and now that he was going through such a disaster, she had to suffer with him.
He looked at Sang Tian who was standing beside him and said in an apologetic tone: "Yu Shang, you know that Lian'er's health has not been good..."
"You can live with her." Sang Tian interrupted what he was about to say.
Lin Yuqing didn't react to her straightforwardness for a while.
Sang Tian didn't care whether he reacted or not and took her bag and went into another room.
Seeing that it was almost time, Ju Yuzhu took the initiative to say goodbye to Lin Yuqing.
As soon as he walked out of the yard, several men in black came out from the darkness and knelt on one knee in front of him.
"Master Ju, we did a good job this time, didn't we? Now the people of the whole city know that General Lin is a hypocrite who kills innocent people indiscriminately."
Several men in black took off their masks, revealing faces that were exactly the civilians killed by Lin Yuqing and the people who led the commotion.
Ju Yuzhu smiled gently and nodded at them: "You did a good job, so I'll give you a reward."
Ju Yuzhu took out the heavy purse from his waist and threw it to the man standing in front.
After Lin Yuqing lost his status as a general, he could no longer continue to live the same way as before. Now he had to go to the prison on time every day to watch over the prisoners.
As soon as he left, Sang Tian and Bai Lian were the only ones left at home.
Now that they were penniless, Bai Lian's clothes had become visibly simpler, and Sang Tian's clothes naturally became plainer as well.
Bai Lian was still thinking that with Lin Yuqing's abilities, she would be able to make a comeback one day, so she was not worried about her current predicament at all.
During the day, Bai Lian completely ignored Sang Tian and only cooked for her and Lin Yuqing, never for her.
Sang Tian was not angry. As soon as Lin Yuqing left, she followed him out.
She put on a veil and swaggered into Ju Yuzhu's mansion. When the servants guarding the door saw her, they bowed respectfully.
As soon as she entered, several maids came over, took off her simple clothes and changed her into a bright red dress.
"Ma'am, the master said he will be back soon and you can take a bath first."
Sang Tianmi nodded and, with the help of her maid, walked into the bathing pool built specially for her.
