Su Bin hastily clarified, “I wouldn’t dare harbor any resentment towards the emperor.”

“Making a living in this world is no simple task…

Su Bin reiterated to Governor Lin what he had previously conveyed to Governor Li.

Before Governor Lin’s arrival, Su Bin had secured approval from the Empress

Dowager. Seizing the opportunity, he addressed Su Bin,

“The Empress Dowager mentioned that if Governor Su encounters any difficulties, do not hesitate to bring them to her attention. She is committed to doing her utmost to address and resolve your concerns.”

Su Bin restated his earlier appeals.

Governor Lin, akin to Governor Li, diligently recorded all of Su Bin’s requests in his notebook.

“I will convey Governor Su’s challenges to the Empress Dowager. Given her resourcefulness, these matters should pose no significant hurdles.”

“Governor Su, anticipate positive developments!”

Governor Lin even affectionately patted Su Bin’s shoulder.

“I find our conversations particularly congenial, Governor Su.”

“The fact that you, Governor Su, openly express your difficulties and requests in person signifies your astuteness.”

In a hushed tone, Governor Lin added, “If you were to agree without seeking anything in return, it might raise suspicions with the Empress Dowager.” Su Bin was taken aback. “What would the Empress Dowager suspect?”

“She might suspect that the Public House could dispatch individuals to approach you. Fearing for your own interests, you might agree to lend money to the Public House as well.”

Su Bin’s countenance instantly soured.

“Governor Lin, had you not brought this to my attention, I wouldn’t have considered it.”

“If the individuals from the Public House approach me in the future seeking to borrow money, what course of action should I take?”

“If I consent to their request, I would betray the Imperial Court. If I refuse, they might retaliate and hinder my ability to assist the Empress Dowager.”

“If the Public House cites the weakened state of the treasury under the guise of an Imperial Court matter to request a loan, it may be challenging for me to decline. Refusal might result in immediate charges of defying the decree.” Governor Lin chuckled as he observed Su Bin’s expression. “Fear not, Governor

“The Empress Dowager has already contemplated this issue. If the Public House approaches you, feign agreement initially. When they request funds, employ various excuses to provide them with as little as possible.”

“Furthermore, use this opportunity to build their trust and report their activities to the Grand Empress Dowager. This is crucial!”

Su Bin simulated a sigh of relief. “I appreciate the guidance.”

As he spoke, he even wiped his forehead with his sleeve, despite the absence of any perspiration.

Before Governor Lin departed, he inquired of Su Bin, “Do you have any other requests? Perhaps a transfer back to the capital and a promotion of three levels?”

Su Bin shook his head. “Not necessary.”

“I believe that by remaining outside the capital, I can maintain a lower profile and evade suspicion from the Public House. I hold considerable favor with the Empress Dowager.”

Governor Lin smiled. “You are quite astute!”

“Rest assured. Once this task is completed, the Empress Dowager and the

Emperor will treat you well.”

Su Bin nodded earnestly. “Thank you, Lord!”

Following Governor Lin’s departure, Su Bin promptly sought out Qin

Zhenzhen.

In the backyard, Qin Zhenzhen cradled their son, playfully coaxing him. “Come on, Yuan Bao, be a good boy. Give Mother a smile.”

Their son, nearly three months old, was a bundle of energy, expressing himself loudly whether through cries or laughter. Thanks to Qin Zhenzhen’s careful care and the spirit water she had been feeding him, he looked significantly different from the previous month.

At this moment, the infant seemed to comprehend Qin Zhenzhen’s words, responding with a joyful smile.

Hearing Yuan Bao’s laughter in the distance, Su Bin quickened his pace, eager to join the familial scene..
