Shenwu Yutianlei

Chapter 260 Lin Mansion

Shen Yun, Lin Ruyi and Lin Zhixiong walked all the way to the Zuo Xiang Mansion.

The Left Prime Minister's Mansion is located in the central area of ​​​​Liuyun City. The vermilion gate is majestic and closed, and the copper rust on the door knocker is a precipitate of the vicissitudes of time. The plaque above the gate reads "Lin Mansion" in a vigorous and powerful stroke, exuding a majestic and solemn atmosphere.

The walls of the mansion are tall and thick, like a barrier, separating the mansion from the hustle and bustle of the outside world. Outside the wall, there are busy streets and noisy crowds; inside the wall, there is a serene and mysterious atmosphere, as if wisps of spiritual energy from heaven and earth are slowly flowing in the air, adding a sense of ethereality to the mansion.

When they arrived at the gate of the mansion, the servants guarding the gate hurriedly opened the door respectfully and shouted in unison: "Miss, your cousin is back!" Lin Ruyi nodded slightly and strode into the mansion with her head held high. Lin Zhixiong followed closely behind her, and Shen Yun followed behind them a little stiffly.

Entering the gate, the first thing that comes into view is a spacious courtyard. In the courtyard, exotic flowers and plants compete for beauty, shining brightly under the sunlight, and these flowers and plants seem to be nourished by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, becoming more and more vibrant. A bluestone-paved path winds through the courtyard and leads to the solemn and majestic main hall.

The main hall is magnificent, with tall pillars firmly supporting the heavy roof, and exquisite carved beams and painted buildings. The layout of the hall is elegant and generous, with tables and chairs arranged neatly and orderly, and the famous calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall exude a strong cultural atmosphere, demonstrating the noble status and profound cultural heritage of the Xiangfu.

Through the main hall, there is a long corridor with side rooms on both sides. Some of these side rooms are quiet study rooms, some are warm bedrooms, and some are neat guest rooms. Each room is decorated exquisitely and comfortably, and there is a subtle aura in it, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.

Further back, there is a picturesque garden. The rockery in the garden is staggered and the stream is gurgling, making a clear and pleasant sound. An exquisite pavilion stands in the center of the garden, like a shining pearl. This is a great place for the prime minister to relax in his spare time, and it is also a good place for everyone in the mansion to appreciate the beautiful scenery and feel the charm of nature. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth seems to be more intense in the garden, making every plant and tree here full of vitality.

The entire Xiangfu covers a vast area, and the architectural layout is well-arranged, showing both a majestic style and an elegant and unique charm. This is not only a symbol of power and status, but also a mansion full of aura and charm. When Shen Yun and the other two stepped into the Xiangfu, the servants in the mansion cast curious glances at them. Led by Lin Zhixiong, they walked along the bluestone path to the main hall. Shen Yun couldn't help but feel a little uneasy, not knowing what kind of situation would be waiting for him.

"Dad, Dad, where are you? Dad..." As soon as she returned to the Left Prime Minister's Mansion, Lin Ruyi began to look for her father everywhere, intending to take the initiative.

"Miss, please don't look for him. The master is in the study." She was still Lin Ruyi's personal maid. Before, because Lin Ruyi was going to the Royal Academy to practice, she went back to the Left Prime Minister's Mansion. Now seeing Lin Ruyi come back, she was naturally very happy.

Upon hearing this, Lin Ruyi walked towards the study.

"Hey, hey, hey, miss, please don't go. The master told you to go back to your room and wait. He will summon you later." The maid was quick-eyed and quick-handed. She hurried forward to stop Lin Ruyi, with a bit of anxiety and helplessness on her face.

Lin Ruyi frowned slightly, stopped and muttered, "Why is the old man keeping me in suspense?" Her eyes were full of confusion.

At this time, the maid walked up to Shen Yun, bowed respectfully, and said softly: "Is this Mr. Shen Yun? The master invites you, please follow me."

Shen Yun nodded slightly and responded politely: "Thank you."

Lin Ruyi showed a worried look on her face. She pulled Shen Yun's sleeve and said, "Brother Yun, how about I go with you? With me here, the old man won't dare to make things difficult for you." Her eyes revealed determination, as if she wanted to protect Shen Yun.

Shen Yun looked at Lin Ruyi and felt a warm feeling in his heart. He smiled and comforted her, "It's okay, Ruyi, I can go there by myself. He is your father, and I believe he has no ill intentions. If he really had any ideas, he wouldn't have waited until now." His voice was steady and confident, trying to reassure Lin Ruyi.

Lin Ruyi bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, and finally let go of her hand and said, "Okay, Brother Yun, be careful."

Shen Yun gave her a reassuring look and followed the maid to the study.

The sunlight shines on the vermilion gate, casting a dazzling light, as if adding a layer of sacred glory to the mansion.

At this time, the maid hurried to a spacious study, stopped, and said respectfully: "Master, Mr. Shen Yun is here."

The study was filled with a faint scent of ink. The interior was elegantly decorated, and the bookshelves were filled with all kinds of books, from classics to poetry and songs. The famous calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall added a bit of cultural heritage to the room. A middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes sat behind the desk. His eyes were as deep as a pool, and his majesty revealed a bit of restrained wisdom. Hearing the maid's report, he slowly raised his head, with a kind of imposing aura, and said in a steady voice: "Come in."

Upon hearing this, the maid stood aside, gently pushed the door open with her hand, and then bowed to Shen Yun: "Mr. Shen, please."

Shen Yun nodded slightly, with just the right smile on his face, and responded, "Thank you, young lady." After that, he walked into the study with a leisurely pace.

The moment he stepped into the study, Shen Yun's eyes fell on the middle-aged man in front of him. He quickly bowed and said respectfully: "I am Shen Yun, and I meet the left prime minister."

However, after waiting for a while, there was no response from the person in front. Shen Yun couldn't help but feel uneasy. This uneasy feeling was not due to fear, but to a certain extent, guilt. After all, he took away the cabbage that others had worked hard to raise.

Zuo Xiang sat behind the desk and nodded slightly. His eyes were like sharp eagle eyes, looking up and down at Shen Yun. Shen Yun felt that his eyes seemed to penetrate his heart, and he unconsciously straightened his spine. Zuo Xiang's eyes revealed a subtle admiration, which might be because of Shen Yun's outstanding appearance, or because of his unique temperament. After a moment, Zuo Xiang said, "No need to be polite, sit down."

It has to be said that in some situations, appearance can indeed bring certain advantages to people, and Shen Yun's handsome face seemed to add a lot of points to him at this time.

Shen Yun followed his instructions and sat down on a chair beside him. He moved carefully and tried to behave appropriately. Although he was a little nervous, he still tried to stay calm and waited for the next words from the left prime minister.
