"The Emperor, by the Mandate of Heaven, proclaims: I have heard that the daughter of Grand Tutor Lin Shuo, Ms. Lin, is unparalleled, both beautiful and intelligent, with a dignified and elegant demeanor..."

"...Now, this decree is hereby issued to confer Lin Wushuang as the Crown Princess, and to select a date for the wedding. I decree this."

As soon as Wushuang opened her eyes, she heard a familiar voice, saying words that were familiar to her.

The eunuch who delivered the imperial edict?

Imperial decree granting marriage?

She, Lin Wushuang, became the prince's fiancée?

Wushuang was really confused. She was going to become the Crown Princess just after arriving?

But she quietly lowered her head, used a trick to make others unable to see what she was doing, and then took out a mirror to look at her face.

Well, she is extremely gorgeous, beautiful, and stunningly beautiful... With such outstanding looks, she was actually named the Crown Princess. Did the emperor really make the right decision?

In the legendary Crown Princess, shouldn't her appearance be merely dignified, and she be tolerant, virtuous, and good as a Crown Princess or even a Queen?

Of course, such an important position as the Crown Princess can only be held by a woman with a good family background.

"That's great! Wushuang has become the Crown Princess."

After receiving the imperial edict and sending away the eunuch who delivered it, Mrs. Lin, the wife of the Grand Tutor, was extremely happy.

"Wushuang, mother knew that you were destined to be a noble man." Mrs. Lin said happily while holding Wushuang's hand.

Wushuang looked at her and knew that she was really happy.

As for why she was so happy, Wushuang didn't delve into it.

She looked around. Besides her, the Lin family had other daughters. They looked at Wushuang with envy and jealousy.

She was the legitimate daughter of Mrs. Lin. She had been outstanding in appearance since childhood and was taught to be proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting.

The other sisters were envious of such a peerless person who could be named the Crown Princess, but they also knew that they could never compare to her.

"Mother knows it, mother knows it, mother's Wushuang is the best." Mrs. Lin smiled happily, and she couldn't control her joy.

"Don't get too proud of yourself." Looking at his wife's happy expression, Master Lin criticized her.

"Now that Wushuang has become the Crown Princess, she should be even more careful with her words and actions and not hold her back." Taifu Lin looked at Madam Lin seriously and said.

"And you, if you do anything that brings shame to the Lin family or drags down the Lin family, don't blame your father for killing your own relatives for the sake of justice." Taifu Lin's expression was very serious and his words were very cold. Of course, the children of the Lin family said that they knew it.

Taifu Lin has always been cautious in his words and actions throughout his life. Even though he has now sat in the position of Taifu, he still dares not allow himself to make any mistakes.

If he is not careful, his entire clan will be implicated. How can he dare to do anything wrong?

What he wanted was wealth and glory, not the annihilation of his entire clan, so he had to restrain the Lin family.

"Madam, I know you are happy, but once you leave the Lin Mansion, please restrain yourself and don't be too arrogant." said Master Lin, who knew his wife very well.

Mrs. Lin nodded.

Although her high spirits were dampened by Master Lin, she was extremely happy when she thought of her daughter becoming the Crown Princess.

"Come on, Wushuang, come with your mother to see what kind of dowry we can prepare for you." Mrs. Lin happily pulled Wushuang away.

Master Lin ignored his wife and daughter, but called his son to the study to talk and plan for the future of the Lin family.

The remaining daughter-in-law of the Lin family and the other daughters looked at each other in bewilderment. The second daughter-in-law of the Lin family looked at everyone and whispered, "I wonder how much dowry mother will give to my second sister?"

Wushuang is the second among her sisters, and she has an older illegitimate sister.

Of course, Taifu Lin’s first child must be the eldest son born to Mrs. Lin, and there is no illegitimate son or daughter.

Although Wushuang's half-sister is older than her, she is definitely still the younger sister of the eldest son.

This second daughter-in-law is also the wife of Mrs. Lin's second son, so she dared to talk about the dowry that Mrs. Lin gave to Wushuang at this time.

If she were the wife of a bastard, she really wouldn't dare to speak up about the dowry given by Madam Lin.

Just like the third daughter-in-law next to her, she is the wife of a concubine's son, and she dare not question how much dowry the mother-in-law gave to her sister-in-law.

Cui, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Lin family, looked at Liu, the second daughter-in-law, and said, "It's better for my sister-in-law not to ask around. It's not our place to ask how much dowry Mother gave my second sister."

"Besides, my second sister is the Crown Princess, so her dowry cannot be shabby." Cui said lightly.

Cui came from the Boling Cui family. Although not as prominent as the Qinghe Cui family, it was still a noble family, and her dowry was also very generous.

So even though she felt a little sad because her mother-in-law planned to give her sister-in-law a larger dowry, she was more open-minded about it.

As for Liu, her family was not prominent, and her dowry was not generous enough when she got married. She just hoped that her parents-in-law would give more to her and her husband when they divided the family property in the future.

Even though she knew that her eldest uncle, as the eldest son, would get the largest share of the family property, she still hoped that her mother-in-law's dowry could be divided equally among her sons.

In this way, their second wife would not be so tight on finances.

The third daughter-in-law, Zhang, didn't have any thoughts. Although she didn't come from a wealthy family, her family was a wealthy businessman, and her parents gave her a lot of dowry.

She was favored in her parents' home and married the third son of the Taifu Mansion. Even though he was a illegitimate son, her parents still felt that she had made a great deal.

So although her dowry seemed to be less than that of her elder sister-in-law, she actually had a lot of private money. After she got married, gave birth to a child, or on her birthday, her parents also gave her a lot of gifts.

They also took advantage of various festivals, the New Year, or her child's full moon or hundredth day to give her subsidies, including money, to various farms and shops.

It can be said that the person who is least short of money in the entire Lin family is the third daughter-in-law Zhang.

"What's wrong with the Crown Princess? Is the Crown Princess's dowry going to empty our family's pockets?" Liu said with some dissatisfaction.

Master Lin is cautious in his words and actions and would not do anything corrupt. Even if he accepted some gifts, it would still be difficult for him to support such a large family.

The Lin family was able to live a comfortable life because their sacrificial fields, farms, shops and the like made money, all thanks to Mrs. Lin's good management.

Of course, there are also subsidies from Cui and Zhang who married into the family, so the talents of the Lin family can live such a comfortable life.

Of course, the biggest reason is Zhang's family. The wealthy businessmen who are good at business are really rich, and a little subsidy to the Lin family can make them live a good life.

The Lin family is not a family with a rich history that has been passed down for hundreds of years, so Liu was eyeing the money of the Duke, the money in her mother-in-law's hands, and her mother-in-law's dowry.

She knew that there would be many benefits for Wushuang if she became the Crown Princess, but she also knew that the Lin family would have to pay a price.

And she also needs to pay part of this price.

Liu didn't want to pay such a price at all. She just wanted to reap the benefits.
