Chapter 427 It's Clearly the Same Person

Qi Lei acted decisively and spoke out to stop it.

"Your Majesty, please think twice. This is absolutely not allowed..."

Before he finished speaking, Gu Nianting had already handed the seal book to Lin Mu.

"Take a quick look at the situation and see how to arrange the money."

Qi Lei's heart broke.

"My lord, you..."

Lin Mu was delighted and took the book.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your understanding, and thank you, Lord Qi, for your permission."

Qi Lei glared at him, furious.

"Why did I give you permission?"

"Lin Mu, you work in the Imperial Hospital, how dare you make the decision on your own about Feng Zhengtai's affairs?!"

"Even if the Imperial Edict allows it, you must give the world a reasonable explanation before you can be the master of the Eight Platforms."

"You have exceeded your authority too much. I can deal with you first and then report you. If you dare to do anything rash, I will not let you off easily!"

Lin Mu sighed and handed the book back. There was a hint of humility in his eyes, which fell accurately into Gu Nianting's sight.

"Your Majesty, I dare not look..."

Gu Nianting suddenly felt pity and opened the book himself and showed it to Lin Mu.

"Don't worry, just watch."

He first comforted Lin Mu and then scolded Qi Lei.

"I want to see who dares to presumptuously deal with my people in front of me."

Qi Lei was increasingly unable to understand the prince's desperate protection, and his uneasy feeling turned into anger that suddenly burst out.

"Your Highness is too absurd. If you let yourself be deceived by a villain like this, your life will end!"

Gu Nianting remained unmoved and said something coldly.

"You are not allowed to speak. Stand right here as punishment."

Qi Lei expressed his dissatisfaction frankly.

"How dare Your Majesty bypass the Emperor and Prince Dijin and punish me at will?"

With this reminder, Gu Nianting remembered the provisions of the law and also remembered that he was a subject.

Feeling that he was being mocked by him, Gu Nianting responded with a sneer.

"Oh, you dare to threaten me now?"

"Okay, sit down. I won't punish you. But you are not allowed to talk nonsense in front of me. If this is an order, is it against the law?"

Qi Lei sat down with anger in his eyes.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the seat."

Gu Nianting was helpless and felt aggrieved. He looked away and rolled his eyes at him.

While the two were talking, Lin Mu flipped through the book and found that everything had been properly arranged.

He fetched a pen and paper, wrote it down in an orderly manner, smiled humbly, and handed it over.

"My humble opinion is foolish and I hope you will forgive me for making a fool of me, Your Majesty."

His mind was suddenly pulled back to last year by his memories, and Gu Nianting suddenly felt dazed.

I remember that when Xier handled this matter for the first time, she also said: My humble opinion is foolish and ignorant, and I hope Your Majesty will laugh at me.

No wonder everyone says that they have similar talents and ambitions.

In his opinion, this is clearly the same person!

Just as he was thinking about it, Lin Mu raised his hand and waved it in front of him.

"Your Majesty?"

Realizing that he was in a daze, Gu Nianting quickly came back to his senses and smiled with a hint of embarrassment.

"I will take a look right now. Please wait for a moment, my Lords."

He has never liked reading texts. He thinks they are complicated, difficult to understand, and boring. He gets bored after just one glance.

He originally wanted to just give it a quick glance, but he didn't expect Lin Mu's handwriting to be so neat and organized that even he, who was not good at writing, could understand it clearly at a glance.

It was easy to read and I didn't feel tired at all. Gu Nianting couldn't help but read the entire article and then gave his comments.

"Lord Lin is a man of great wisdom and intelligence, and his reputation is well deserved. This really opens my eyes!"

Qi Lei showed some contempt, thinking that it was just a casual compliment and not sincere.

The prince has always been arrogant. Unless he is infatuated with that person, how could his arrangement be so miraculous that he could praise him so much?

Lin Mu lowered his head respectfully and smiled awkwardly.

"It's just a small thing, just to show my gratitude. I hope the prince and Mr. Qi will not abandon it."

After his hint and reminder, Gu Nianting remembered that Qi Lei was beside him, so he handed the paper to him for review.

"Master Qi, please take a look. Is this feasible?"

Qi Lei gave him face and took it and took a look.

What good intentions could Lin Mu have? This person's plan was nothing more than to make random arrangements, induce him to make mistakes, and then remove him from his position and replace him.

Thinking like this, he had even finished thinking about the words of refusal, but in the end, he was so shocked by the method written by Lin Mu that his whole body froze.

"This……"

Gu Nianting smiled happily.

"how?"

Qi Lei was stunned and forgot to reply.

Lin Mu's method was enough to solve all difficulties, and the surplus silver was even three times more than what Princess Yuexi had expected!

According to the law, the remaining silver cannot be used for personal use, but it does not have to be returned to the national treasury. It can be deposited into the Fengzhengtai treasury in full to prepare for the next need. Not only that, you can also get corresponding rewards for your savings.

How strange! The enemy obviously had a plan in mind. Why would Lin Mu be so kind?

After realizing that he had not responded, Qi Lei quickly jumped out of his thoughts, still looking a little stunned.

"Master Lin, this method is very good."

Qi Lei's comment was that although it was simple and straightforward, it could not hide his astonishment at the astonishing talent.

Lin Mu caught the details at a glance, and raised his lips slightly in a faint smile.

This is Ning Fengzhe's brilliant strategy.

When Lin Mu first heard the plan, he was as shocked as Lord Qi.

I originally thought that Princess Yuexi was the greatest genius of the time, but unexpectedly, her elder brother, Mou Linggaoyun, was even more amazing.

Gu Nianting was contented, as if he was praised.

"I said yesterday that Lord Lin was sincere and genuine. Seeing this now, Lord Qi can put his doubts to rest, right?"

Qi Lei did not rush to answer, but asked questions in a clever way to hint at the prince's doubts.

"Lin Daren has a long-standing reputation for his talent and strategy. I have always studied, but my studies are profound but not unfathomable, not as perfect as this one."

"It's beautiful, but there's a hint of cunning between the lines, which doesn't quite match Lord Lin's demeanor."

"Excuse me, Master Lin, is this method really from you?"

Lin Mu remained calm in the face of the sudden change, and did not show any guilt in his answers.

"I am indeed a lowly and foolish person."

"My humble ability has been constantly studied and appreciated by Mr. Qi. This is truly a blessing for me."

After answering, he turned to Gu Nianting and continued the conversation to show his sincerity.

"The truth is, Your Majesty, your heart is as clear as a mirror. I used to hide my skills and keep my clumsiness because I never really wanted to work for any side. But now, I am following Your Majesty to assist in the great cause, so I will naturally go all out."

"Your Majesty's kindness is so great that anyone would remember it for the rest of their life. I feel indebted to you and will definitely repay you, using all my wisdom and strength, and I will never regret it!"

Compared to Qi Lei's silence, Lin Mu's words were still warm.

For the first time since he was born, he cherished his kindness. Gu Nianting looked at Lin Mu with tears in his eyes. Silence was better than a thousand words.

"Master Lin..."

After pointing out the doubts, Qi Lei was met with a show of sincerity, which made him completely helpless.

He knew very well that it was useless to persuade him any more. Firstly, the prince was stubborn and would not listen to him at all; secondly, there must be a master behind Lin Mu, and except for Alliance Leader Qi who might be able to defeat him, the rest were not worth considering.

Thinking about what Lord Tao did yesterday, which was a very appropriate move of retreating in order to advance, he gave up his advice for the time being and reluctantly agreed with the prince.

"Your Highness is absolutely right. Lord Lin is sincere and there is no need to be suspicious."

Seeing that Lord Qi still had some doubts, Lin Mu didn't care and didn't say anything.

"Thank you, Master Qi, for your understanding."

Qi Lei raised one corner of his mouth and smiled carelessly.

"Master Lin, you are too polite."

Thinking that they were getting along well with each other, Gu Nianting was delighted.

"That's right. Colleagues should have no suspicion and work together in a friendly manner."

Lin Mu took a step further and made a suggestion.

"Today's problem is that the secret platform has fallen into the hands of the enemy..."
