Chapter 173: I study Spring and Autumn, I am not a casual person!
Looking at the figure of Big Bull leaving, Lin Beifan sighed: “Many who claim righteousness are actually heartless, and many who study are unfaithful.”
“Mr. Lin, why do you say that?” Mo Rushuang asked in confusion.
“Look at Big Bull. He has become a wanted criminal by the court, yet he still came here to kill the horse bandits and boldly requested for amnesty…” Lin Beifan shook his head. “If he didn’t still have hope for the court, hope for this country, why would he take the risk of being executed? With his abilities, he could hide his identity, live somewhere else, wouldn’t that be better? To knowingly do something impossible, that is a true loyalist!”
“Mr. Lin’s words are wise! If it were me, I’m afraid I would have long escaped to the ends of the earth and not have any more relations with the court!” Mo Rushuang nodded in agreement.
“But, it is also because of those naive and lovable people that the country has hope! In comparison, many well-read people are heartless and unfaithful, competing and attacking each other in court for their own selfish gain! It is because of them that they have ruined the great foundation of Great Wu, leading to the suffering and hardships of the people!” Lin Beifan said.
“Mr. Lin, I think what you’re saying is not correct!” Mo Rushuang said.
“Where am I wrong?” Lin Beifan was perplexed.
“Not all scholars are heartless and unfaithful! Like Mr. Lin, you are an outstanding scholar, but you silently accomplish many things that benefit the people! Especially this time, if it wasn’t for your intervention, the region of Northern Hebei would still be suffering from the horse bandits. On behalf of the people in my hometown, I thank you!” Mo Rushuang said, feeling somewhat emotional.
“Rushuang, is it just gratitude in words?” Lin Beifan asked expectantly.
“Mr. Lin…” Mo Rushuang blushed and lowered her head.
Then, she reached out her delicate jade hand and slowly untied her belt.
Lin Beifan was shocked!
Could it be that Rushuang wants to repay me with her body, in the absence of any other means?
Oh my, how can this be?
Although I really want it, I am after all, a scholar of Spring and Autumn, I am not a casual person!
But if you insist, I can only reluctantly agree!
Lin Beifan, who had received a modern education, knew an important lesson – in certain situations, one must uphold morals and not resist a woman’s will!
Then, something even more shocking happened to Lin Beifan!
She actually…
She actually took out a stack of silver notes from her belt!
“Mr. Lin, take it! A total of 500,000 taels!” Mo Rushuang said proudly.
Lin Beifan was speechless. “Is that it? Where did this money come from?”
“I swindled it from the prince! Ever since I found out his true identity, I have been trying to weaken his power, so I took advantage of your name and tricked him into giving me this sum of money!” Mo Rushuang said, feeling triumphant.
Lin Beifan said helplessly, “Rushuang, you’re becoming more and more wicked!”
Mo Rushuang humbly said, “It’s all thanks to the guidance of Mr. Lin!”
Lin Beifan: “…”
Lin Beifan took the silver notes and said, “Since it’s just money, why are you blushing?”
Mo Rushuang’s cheeks turned red. “After all, it’s my first time deceiving someone, so I feel a bit embarrassed.”
Lin Beifan was even more speechless!
Okay, so I misunderstood. I got excited for nothing!
“Now, how is the situation on the prince’s side?” Lin Beifan asked with concern.
“I don’t know the core secrets, but I heard from a friend at the Royal mansion that the prince hasn’t been in a good mood recently! Although he smiles at everyone, it seems forced!” Mo Rushuang proudly said. “Also, the Royal mansion is running out of money! The advisor even told me to find a way for you to ask for less money!”
Lin Beifan burst into laughter. “They probably never expected that you have defected to my side! Not only didn’t you save them money, but you actively helped me earn money!”
“Please don’t laugh, Mr. Lin!” Mo Rushuang blushed and lowered her head.
Seeing the bashful appearance of the beauty in front of him, Lin Beifan felt his heart flutter. He reached out his hand and pulled Mo Rushuang’s slender waist into his embrace.
In the midst of her astonished gaze, he kissed her.
“Mr. Lin… mmm!”
Time slowly passed, and two days went by.
On this day, after more than half a month of preparation, the Li Medical Clinic finally opened in the capital city.
Due to the popularity of “Li’s Medical Formula” throughout the city, the Li Medical Clinic became popular as well. Many people from the capital came to join in the fun, crowding in front of the clinic.
However, the majority of the young masters were mainly there to see a certain person.
They were fixated on a white figure at the back of the clinic, as if their souls were being drawn away.
“Is that Miss Li Yuxin? She’s so beautiful, like an elegant chrysanthemum, and as enchanting as a blooming narcissus, beautiful!”
“Yes, she’s different from Miss Shi Shi’s noble appearance and different from Miss Ziyue’s bewitching allure. Li Yuxin has a unique temperament that can be described as pure and ethereal!”
“And, not only is Li Yuxin beautiful, but she is also knowledgeable, respectful to her elders, and treat everyone kindly! She has been learning medicine from her ancestors since childhood and is a skilled and compassionate doctor!”
“If I could marry a woman like her, I would gladly sacrifice ten years of my life!”
…
So, they were all gathered at the clinic entrance to admire the beauty.
Many young masters even pretended to be patients and entered the clinic in search of medical advice, hoping for a chance to get closer to Li Yuxin.
Li Yuxin seemed to see through their intentions and ignored them, instead handing them over to the senior doctors inside the clinic.
She mainly focused on receiving female patients or attending to children, and if there were no patients, she would prepare prescriptions.
This left many young masters, who had ulterior motives, greatly disappointed.
However, their moods quickly improved.
Li Yuxin ignored me and ignored you as well, which means I still have a chance!
When a golden city is reached, gold and stone will yield!
They believed that one day, they would be able to win Li Yuxin’s heart!
And at that moment, Li Yuxin looked towards the door and suddenly revealed a radiant and delighted smile.
Everyone was struck by this smile, their hearts pounding.
Li Yuxin, are you smiling at me?
So beautiful!
Such a healing smile!
Mom and dad, I think I’m in love!
Then, Li Yuxin hurriedly ran towards the entrance of the clinic.
The young masters immediately started showing off, displaying their handsome and valiant sides like peacocks opening their feathers.
But Li Yuxin ignored them and went to a young man. Excitedly, she said, “Mr. Principal, you’re here!”
The person in front of her was Lin Beifan, who apologized as soon as he entered, “I’m sorry, everyone. I was busy with official duties and only had time to come now. I hope you understand!”
The people in the clinic gathered around, smiling.
“Mr. Principal, you are too polite. It’s an honor for us that you’re here!”
“It’s our pleasure to have you here. You bring radiance and make us delighted!”
“Li Yuxin, serve Mr. Principal a cup of tea!”
…
For a while, Lin Beifan became the most handsome guy in the clinic!
Those so-called young masters were nothing compared to Lin Beifan!
Li Yuxin’s beautiful eyes were always fixed on Lin Beifan.
She lowered her head slightly, with a shy and timid look that clearly indicated her feelings. This drove the young masters crazy!
Li Yuxin, could it be that you’re interested in Mr. Principal?
What’s so good about that man?
Is he just slightly more handsome?
Slightly more talented?
Slightly wealthier?
Slightly more powerful?
But can these things feed you?
Li Yuxin, can’t you be less superficial and take a look at us too!
Although we may not be handsome, talented, rich, or powerful, but we have a heart that loves you!
Don’t give up the whole forest for just one tree!
At this moment, Lin Beifan, who was adored by everyone, raised his hand and said, “Although I came to offer my congratulations, I won’t wish you all good luck in your business!”
“Why, Mr. Principal?” everyone was puzzled.
“After all, you are running a medical clinic. Wishing you good luck and prosperity means more suffering and hardship for the common people, isn’t that inauspicious?”
Everyone burst into laughter. “Mr. Principal, you’re absolutely right!”
“So, here…” Lin Beifan smiled and said, “I wish you all good health and a life free from illness and disaster!”
“Thank you, Mr. Principal! Mr. Principal, please come inside! Li Yuxin, since you don’t have any patients now, you can entertain Mr. Principal!” the old man called out.
“Yes, grandfather!” Li Yuxin blushed and nodded in agreement.
Watching the two of them happily enter the inner room, the young masters present once again felt heartbroken!
Such a depressing smile!
Mom and dad, it feels like I just experienced a breakup!
My beloved woman has someone else in her heart, but that someone is not me!
Inside the inner room, Lin Beifan only stayed for a while and then left.
After all, the other party had just opened and had many things to attend to. It wouldn’t be good to delay them.
But as he walked out, he bumped into someone he knew, Princess Ziyue, who had just returned.
“Princess Ziyue, it’s been over a month. I hope you’ve been well!” Lin Beifan smiled.
“Mr. Principal, as soon as I returned, I heard that you got promoted again. Congratulations!” Princess Ziyue walked over gracefully, her eyes filled with a smile.
She still liked wearing purple clothes and a purple veil, only revealing her captivating purple eyes.
She exuded a seductive and mysterious aura, giving off a sense of nobility.
Lin Beifan shook his head. “It’s just a small fourth-rank official, nothing special!”
Princess Ziyue rolled her eyes upon hearing this.
A fourth-rank official is nothing special?
In the imperial court, that could be considered a high-ranking official!
Even in some smaller countries, even when facing the prime minister of another country, they would still speak with confidence!
Moreover, you have achieved this rank in just over half a year, and rapidly climbed several ranks. It’s all thanks to your actual achievements. There’s probably no one in the world who could accomplish this!
“Mr. Principal, you’re really joking! Now, if you have the time, there is something important I want to discuss with you!” Princess Ziyue’s expression turned serious.
Lin Beifan’s expression also became serious, and he nodded. “Of course, I have time!”
“Mr. Principal, please follow me!”
The two of them left side by side, talking and laughing.
The young masters who were still there, witnessing this scene, felt heartbroken once again and let out a resentful roar in their hearts!
You already have so many good women, why do you have to come and compete with us for Li Yuxin?
Can’t you leave some soup for us to drink?
Lin Beifan, we are sworn enemies!
