Chapter 399 The deposed prince VS the squeamish prince (21)

"Congratulations, Taifu, congratulations to Taifu."

"The master is truly a blessing to heaven."

"The master is really enviable..."

After Emperor Yun issued an edict to praise Taifu Lin and conferred the title of third-class count on Brother Lin, countless people gathered in front of the father and son to congratulate him.

Brother Lin socializes with his father. He is the eldest son and heir of the Lin family. He has been taught by his father since he was a child.

So when faced with such an occasion, he was able to handle it with ease.

Brother Lin is the most promising person in the Lin family. Even the smartest younger brother is not smarter than Brother Lin.

He was dealing with other people in the crowd and couldn't help but look at the stunning beauty over there who was talking to the prince.

That was his sister, the sister of the same mother.

Brother Lin knew very well how he got his title.

This corn was brought out by his sister, just like the cowpox and other smallpox remedies she had brought out from nowhere.

His father had already told him about the origin of corn, letting him know that it was only because of his sister that he was as brilliant as he is now.

Because of corn, their family will definitely be able to gain the attention of the emperor, which can be regarded as a layer of protection for the Lin family.

If the next emperor is really a prince, then with his sister here, their Lin family's status will be more stable.

But Brother Lin also knows very well that the long-term prosperity of the Lin family does not depend entirely on his sister. Only the heirs of the Lin family must be capable and promising in order to continue the glory of the Lin family.

Here, the Lin family and his son are socializing, and over there, Mrs. Lin and the concubine of the Lin family are also dealing with other noble ladies.

Several noble ladies showed interest in the concubine of the Lin family, and the topic of conversation with Mrs. Lin was all about the concubine of the Lin family.

These noble ladies either hold the title of duke in their families, or are the female relatives of first- and second-rank ministers in the court. They are so interested in the concubine of the Lin family because of the face of the Crown Princess Wushuang.

Of course, the more reason is because of Taifu Lin, his father, and Brother Lin, his elder brother who has just received the title of earl.

A good marriage between two surnames depends on each other's family background and their character.

It doesn't matter that the concubine of the Lin family is a concubine. It's not a big deal to these wealthy nobles. As long as marrying her can establish a relationship with the Lin family, it will be fine.

But it's a pity that Lin Shumei is not interested in these people at all.

How can a concubine from a duke's house or a first- or second-rank minister's house compare to a prince?

So what if the sixth prince is also a concubine?

The royal family is the place that pays the most attention to legitimate concubines, but also the place that pays the least attention to legitimate concubines.

If the sixth prince is capable, and she and her mother-in-law make plans together, maybe he can ascend to the throne.

As for her eldest sister marrying a prince, will her family be willing to support her?

Lin Shumei didn't think too much. Anyway, she felt that marrying the sixth prince as a princess would be better than marrying the bastard son of these ordinary ministers.

Yes, those who asked Mrs. Lin about Lin's concubine's affairs and wanted to marry into the Lin family only wanted to marry the concubine in the family.

Of course, it was impossible for their eldest son to be with Concubine Lin, and the other legitimate sons didn't want to, so they had to let the concubine come.

Therefore, Lin Shumei despised the marriage requests put forward by those female relatives even more. She only wanted to marry the sixth prince and become a high-ranking princess.

When the elders in the family talked about marriage, they basically didn't pay much attention to the younger ones, so Lin Shumei found an opportunity to leave.

Of course, she also knew that this was the palace and she couldn't run around, so she targeted the sixth prince and followed him out.

Wu Shuang, who was talking to Yun Yin, saw Lin Shumei's movements out of the corner of his eye, raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at Yun Yin and said, "Your Highness, do you want to go out for a walk?"

"Huh?" Yun Yin didn't socialize with many people today and just stayed with Wu Shuang. He was a little confused when he heard her say this.

Wushuang smiled and said, "I feel a little bored. Your Highness, would you like to go for a walk with me to relax?"

Yun Yin looked at her and knew that this was just an excuse. She clearly looked like she wanted to watch a show.

What show is there for her to watch at today's palace banquet?

"If you want to go out for a walk, then go out." Of course, Yun Yin would not refuse his princess. He took her hand and stood up, saying something to Emperor Yun before going out.

The imperial concubine sitting next to Emperor Yun looked at the backs of Yun Yin and Wu Shuang, and complained inadvertently, "The banquet is still going on, why did His Highness leave?"

"The same goes for the Crown Princess. Your Majesty is so happy today because of her mother's family. Why did she leave first?"

Emperor Yun heard the imperial concubine's complaint, glanced at her sideways, and said calmly, "Your concubine, why didn't you see the eldest daughter-in-law today?"

Yes, only King Qi Yunqi attended the palace banquet today, and Princess Qi Wang Qiuyi did not attend.

"Your Majesty, Mrs. Wang is sick and has not come here. She is afraid that her illness will spread to others." The imperial concubine heard that Emperor Yun was a little unhappy and replied with a low eyebrow.

Emperor Yun raised his eyebrows slightly, "Why is the boss's wife sick?"

"Your Majesty, you also know that Wang's body has always been weak, and I have invited many imperial doctors to look after her, but they still can't make her strong," the imperial concubine said.

She didn't like much about Wang Qiuyi's daughter-in-law. Even though she was the daughter-in-law she begged for, they didn't like each other after they became mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

Especially before Wang Qiuyi could give birth to a legitimate son, the imperial concubine had all kinds of resentment towards this daughter-in-law.

When she wanted to put people in her son's backyard in the hope that he could give her a grandson as soon as possible, her son refused and insisted on giving birth to Mr. Wang Qiuyi's son.

This approach made the imperial concubine even more dissatisfied with her daughter-in-law, feeling that she had taken control of her son and allowed him to value her more than anything else.

Although later after Wang Qiuyi gave birth to a legitimate son, Yun Qi continued to take concubines honestly and gave birth to more and more children, but the imperial concubine was still dissatisfied with Wang Qiuyi as her daughter-in-law.

When complaining about Wang Qiuyi, she expressed all kinds of dissatisfaction both inside and outside her words.

Emperor Yun listened to the imperial concubine saying all sorts of things about Wang Qiuyi, his daughter-in-law, but the expression on his face did not change.

"The Wang family is so bad, wasn't it because you had to let the boss marry you, life or death?" Emperor Yun said calmly.

Yes, Yun Qi's princess was not appointed by Emperor Yun. It was the imperial concubine who first took a fancy to Wang Qiuyi, the daughter of the Wang family, and then settled on the daughter-in-law after asking for help from Emperor Yun.

As a result, now that she is married and her granddaughters and grandsons are born, the imperial concubine is becoming more and more dissatisfied with her daughter-in-law.

The imperial concubine's expression changed, and she murmured in a low voice, "Isn't it that I don't know that the Wang family has such an unruly temper?"

"Before marriage, who knew that her reputation as gentle, virtuous, and virtuous was actually a lie?"

She really felt that she had been deceived by Wang.

Obviously she found out that Wang Qiuyi had a good reputation and was very docile, which made her feel that she could control her, so she asked Emperor Yun to grant a marriage between her son and Wang Qiuyi.

Marrying a daughter-in-law who is obedient to her words, comes from an aristocratic family, and has a strong background will be good for both her and her son.

How did she know that she had been deceived by the good reputation Wang gave her daughter's business?

Who knew Wang Qiuyi had such an unruly and domineering character?

She actually dared to fight with her husband. How could she, as a mother-in-law, like such a daughter-in-law?
