Chapter 304 Returning to the Mansion
It was precisely because of the absence of Prince Lin that when Lin Yunmeng came back, she was in charge of the entire palace. She found any reason to say that the prince was unwell and went to seek medical advice from the holy doctor to recuperate. However, she was reluctant to leave him and accompany him everywhere.
, and asked someone to escort her back.
This reason was flawless, so Lin Yunmeng proposed to the palace steward that she wanted to go back to the prime minister's palace to get together with her family. The steward agreed without saying a word, and even prepared a carriage and horse to send Lin Yunmeng back in a big way.
This behavior also made those who were observing in secret suddenly realize that yes, the daughter-in-law of the prime minister's house is now the crown prince. She had not come forward before. It was purely because the news of the young couple traveling abroad was blocked. If they found out later,
If the prince knows about what happened to the Lin family, why don't he peel off a layer of their skin?
Lin Yunmeng didn't care what they thought, she just needed to know that her move could temporarily shock these people.
"Welcome the Crown Princess." Standing at the door waiting was none other than Lin Yunji.
The young man with the golden crown and tied hair looked bright and bright, but looking at the dark green eyes under his eyes, Lin Yunmeng couldn't laugh, and felt a little sorry for her younger brother.
Speaking of which, the Lin family was quite miserable. The master of the family was not a good person when he was young. He doted on his concubines and hated women, which made the serious daughter-in-law suffer a lot. However, as the young master who is destined to inherit the title in the future, Lin Yunji has been a child since childhood.
He spent most of his life struggling in books and strategies. When he returned to this so-called 'home', his sister had changed beyond recognition, and his sister had become cold and heartless.
Then the tragedy began - his biological mother died, and his sister also took the blame for her own suffering. His sister never returned home except to return home after getting married. Now the head of the family has fallen, and he has to support the entire prime minister's house.
.
The Lin family, whose bloodline was already thin, now seems to be in danger.
"Well, let's talk when we come in." Lin Yunmeng nodded slightly, Mi'er quickly went up and held her hand as before, so that Lin Yunmeng could maintain her elegant demeanor.
After closing the door, Lin Yunmeng no longer put on any airs of grace and went straight to the point: "Lin Lin fell ill? Does the Emperor intend for you to inherit the position of Prime Minister?"
Seeing that Lin Yunmeng was talking about such a sensitive topic as soon as he arrived, Lin Yunji hurriedly dismissed all the maids and slaves, leaving only a few confidants with him.
"Sister, why do you say that? My father is still fine!" Privately, he didn't want to call her with such a strange title as "Prince Concubine".
Lin Yunmeng glanced at him, and the mocking look in her eyes made Lin Yunji subconsciously purse her lower lip and look away with a guilty conscience.
How could he forget that Lin Yunmeng didn't care about Lin Lin at all, so whether he lived or died had nothing to do with Lin Yunmeng.
"I don't care about him. Now you have seen the situation of the Lin family. Lin Lin was forced to step down. If you continue to hold on to the illusion and hope that Lin Lin will stand up again to prop up the situation, then the Lin family will really be finished, you know!
"
Lin Yunmeng scolded him, "There are also those inexplicable rumors. Didn't you intercept them when they spread? Did you allow these rumors to ferment and become a fatal factor in the Lin family's downfall?"
She was so angry that she thought back to when Xiao Yubei used rumors and rumors to force her to submit. Although she lost her temper for a while, didn't she fight back hard in the end?
And she intended to prevent these words from going too far, but what about Lin Yunji? She was not prepared at all! Is this really her blood-related brother?
Could it be that he inherited all his IQ from that woman Zhang Yanfang??
This was simply outrageous. Lin Yunmeng had already begun to feel confused about the future of the Lin family.
"I...I know all this, and I was trying to clarify it at the beginning, but...but the person behind it is too powerful, and the source cannot be found. One mouth is sealed, and the other mouth can make up all kinds of rumors.
And I can see that the current situation is what the emperor wants to see..."
Lin Yunji lowered his head in despair. The most terrifying thing was that these verbal attacks were more piercing than real knives.
"If he wants to see it, will you really involve the Prime Minister's Mansion?" Lin Yunmeng gritted her teeth angrily. She swore that if her stupid brother dared to nod, she would definitely tear off his head!!
"Of course I don't want to. It's just that it's easy to hide from open guns and hard to defend against hidden arrows. It's better to let my father be plotted by the traitor." Lin Yunji pursed his lips in grievance. What should I do? After returning from this farewell, my sister seemed to have become more aggressive.
.
"That's it!" Lin Yunmeng helplessly held her forehead, "In a few days, the emperor will summon me. Then I will test his tone. If he really doesn't want the Lin family to continue to be famous... you should keep a low profile.
, if it doesn’t work, please leave the capital and become an idle official, it’s better than losing your life.”
Lin Yunji thought for a while and nodded in agreement. He was not too obsessed with being involved in official circles.
"I'm tired."
"... Then sister, have a good rest, Yunji will retire." Lin Yunji hesitated to speak, but finally raised his hand and retired respectfully.
Forget it, if he calls his sister to visit his father, she must be unwilling. Otherwise, she would have had this intention and would have visited him when she learned that her father was injured, instead of talking to her about the future path first.
…
As expected by Lin Yunmeng, the emperor summoned Lin Yunmeng the day after she returned home.
"My wife obeys the order, please wait for a moment, Ronger, take your father-in-law to the flower hall, don't neglect it." Lin Yunmeng ordered the maid to take away the person who sent the message, and she immediately asked the ingenious Mi'er to make it simple.
After dressing up, I went into the palace to meet the saint.
Taking a carriage to the palace, carriages were not allowed inside the palace, and Xu Qingke, who now had the privilege, was not with her, so Lin Yunmeng was not bold enough to ignore the imperial order.
She got off the carriage in a polite manner. The sedan that she had been waiting for for a long time was exquisite and gorgeous. Lin Yunmeng, who was dressed in gold and red clothes, was extremely gorgeous at the moment, and her aura was no weaker than that of the concubines in the palace.
Riding in a sedan chair and walking along the bluestone road, Lin Yunmeng lazily held her pink cheeks in one hand and watched the scenery on the roadside in boredom. There were rockery mountains and beautiful water, and the flowers and plants were vying for beauty. Even the palace attires worn by the palace maids
They are hundreds of times better than the clothing materials of ordinary people outside.
There is also a lady from an official family standing under the pavilion by the lake, looking very elegant...
Before the word "Zhuang" appeared on his head, he was startled by the other person's face that turned around. It wasn't that the other person looked scary, but that familiar face was scary.
Lin Yunmeng couldn't help but rub her eyes, and narrowed her eyes to carefully look at the woman with several maids.
The other party is not the daughter of an official’s family at all, but the charming and wild only daughter of Wu Xunfang—Wu Ling’er!
How come I can see her here!?
