matter of honor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Beijing, the Yue Family might not be much to speak of, but in the south, they were absolutely a force no one dared to provoke, their power rivaled that of the Emperor’s own troops.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He failed to notice, however, the ironic expression on Jin Zijin’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For an Emperor to behave thus, no wonder he was walking on thin ice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He spent his entire life balancing various powers, and even as an Emperor, he was constantly on edge, still having to dance to other people’s tunes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh right, I let him in on the old man’s senility,” Yue Rujing said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking up, Jin Zijin wore a look of mild surprise and sincerely praised, “It’s rare for you to be so astute.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the compliment, Yue Rujing scratched his head a bit embarrassed and said, “I always hear you talking about how the Emperor wants to be a peaceful ruler, navigating between different forces, and I thought the same applies to our Dao Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Tianzong and Xuanzong are balanced, then he can sleep without worries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that the old man of Tianzong has become muddled and Xuanzong’s old man is still sharp, this balance is broken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To maintain the balance between the two, he must protect us.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That way, our actions in Beijing are also more secure, aren’t they?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not bad, you’ve made quite some progress.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Receiving his senior brother’s praise once again, Yue Rujing started to feel a little elated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His mind raced, planning his next steps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So, should we extend our reach to the National Advisor Residence?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Zijin’s face fell, and he gave him a rap on the head, saying, “You’re being foolish again just after being praised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We’ve only been here a few days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Do you think the National Advisor Residence is somewhere you can just reach into?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You should focus on getting Jisheng Hall up and running.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m just a clerk, and the boss isn’t in a hurry,” Yue Rujing complained, shrinking his neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Youyou, a sheltered young lady, can’t conveniently show her face often.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She told you, she can’t be paying you for doing nothing, so you have to handle this matter.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yue Rujing’s mouth twitched, almost about to erupt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That shameless Gu Youyou, a profiteer who’s stingy with silver yet demands relentlessly, and to top it off, has the audacity to call herself a sheltered young lady?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the old matriarch of the Lin Family hailed from a farmer’s background, their residence in Beijing had a more rustic air than other grand households.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While others grew flowers, they cultivated vegetables.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Where others kept birds and mandarin ducks, they raised chickens and big white geese.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In other estates, the ponds were filled with beautiful lotuses and koi, but in theirs, they grew edible lotus roots in addition to bighead carps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now there was a new sight, as the newly arrived cousin had planted some strange things in her yard, rumored to be medicinal herbs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s still snowing from time to time in January, what kind of medicine is the cousin growing?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Haven’t you seen the greenhouse the cousin set up?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There’s also a brazier inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rumor has it some precious things need careful nurturing.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Gee, she really doesn’t consider herself an outsider, using up so much charcoal like that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old Madam must have given her a good amount of silver, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another maid scoffed, “Don’t underestimate her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Haven’t you heard?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>People with Lin Family blood are no ordinary folks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though our cousin may have been born a farmer’s daughter, her abilities are indeed rare in this world.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What kind of unparalleled abilities does she have?” The maid was brimming with gossip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ever heard of the Divine Doctor from Lingnan?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The maid shook her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scoffing maid said with a laugh, “No wonder, you haven’t even heard of the Divine Doctor from Lingnan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let me tell you, our cousin is a Divine Doctor, granted a plaque by the Emperor himself, and is the only one who can curb the typhoid epidemic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You know, even Imperial Physicians are helpless against it.”\u003C\u002Fp>",703,"2026-06-06T06:54:47.695Z",1,"novelbin.me","f8698e33b80e3f1779425357bf4c99afe95790a8617e8191c15a722b594b6c2a","the-challenge-of-a-farmhouse-son-in-law-chapter-488","the-challenge-of-a-farmhouse-son-in-law-chapter-305",1812,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-challenge-of-a-farmhouse-son-in-law-cover.jpg"]
