It was Lin Yue’s first time to visit the Grand Princess’s Mansion. The mansion was very large and she walked around it in circles.
Finally, we met the eldest princess by a small artificial lake. She was sitting in a pavilion by the lake. Next to her was a rockery made of Taihu stones, accompanied by lush green bamboo. The scenery was beautiful.
The eldest princess is already fifty-five years old this year. She looks more energetic than the empress dowager, especially her eyes, which are sparkling and she looks very smart and capable.
When she saw Lin Yue, a look of surprise and understanding flashed in her eyes. She then sent the servants away and started talking to Lin Yue.
"You must be curious why I asked you to come here. Actually, I was asked by someone to do this."
Lin Yue listened, nodded, and thought to herself: [What does that have to do with me? We're not familiar with each other. Can you be more direct and get to the point quickly?]
The Grand Princess: "..." What did she just hear?
Lin Yue's mouth didn't move, could it be that this was what she was thinking?
"Lin Yue?" the Grand Princess called out.
Lin Yue immediately responded, "Aunt, please speak. I'm listening."
"So what if you don't listen? You're the elder, and I'm here to complete the mission. I have to play the role of my nephew's wife well."
The Grand Princess: “…”
It wasn't an illusion, she really heard Lin Yue's thoughts.
The eldest princess rubbed her hands excitedly, her eyes full of excitement.
It's such a rare thing that I finally encountered after living for fifty-five years.
Someone who wanted to know what ghosts looked like since he was three years old has been waiting for fifty-two years, but he is too old to be restless anymore.
In the past, she would have rushed out and set off firecrackers for ten blocks!
“Ahem!
"The thing is, the Minister of Works, Tan Jian, asked me to intercede and see if his son could take over as the Crown Prince's escort for grain. This would not only help relieve the Crown Prince's worries, but he also has a son-in-law who happens to be on the line connecting the border and the capital, so they can cooperate better when the time comes."
"I think this matter is related to Jingyun, so I asked you to come and ask if this job can be given to the Tan family."
Lin Yue smiled and asked, "Does the emperor know about this?"
"Yes, why not? When power falls into the hands of others, the Tan family will be the internal support in the capital, and Mu Lixin's troops will be the main force outside. The world may seem to be surnamed Xiao, but in reality, it will be surnamed Tan or Mu."
"I don't even want to answer such a stupid question, but you dare to ask?"
[Tsk tsk, when you get old you should accept your age, why do you do such foolish things? Seriously]
The Grand Princess: [……] How is she old?
To dare to call her old is simply unforgivable!
If the emperor had not come in person, she would not have bothered to act like an old fool.
snort!
"Isn't this what I'm asking you? If you agree, I'll be your lobbyist. If you don't agree, why would I do this thankless task?"
Lin Yue: "..."
[Oh, you have a hot temper, you're worthy of being the Grand Princess.]
"Then this thing must not be done. Jingyun is fighting a war and is counting on Mu Lixin's cooperation and timely delivery of messages. If the Tan family goes again, Mu Lixin will have helpers, and Jingyun will have no choice but to be controlled by them."
The Grand Princess: "Why didn't you say so earlier?"
Lin Yue: "..."
【Didn’t you just ask?】
The Grand Princess shouted towards the rockery, "That old bastard Tan Jian, tell him to go to hell! He wants to take advantage of everything!"
Lin Yue looked at the raised rockery, confused: [Swearing from a distance?]
Xiao Jingxian in the rockery: “…”? ? ?
You really can't mess with my aunt's hot temper, otherwise she will tell you about it in the next moment.
As expected, the eldest princess continued, "If you have bad intentions, just say it directly. What kind of person is that?"
"If you don't understand such a simple truth, it's a waste of all your years as a 'high-ranking official'."
Xiao Jingxian wailed in his heart: Stop scolding me, can't I just leave?
Then he went out in disgrace, thinking that he still hadn't figured out whether Supervisor Tan could be killed or not.
Just as he was suspicious, Liu Jian on the side turned around to glance at the Grand Princess's Mansion, thinking that the emperor went to such great lengths just to take a look at Princess Ding from afar.
Woo woo woo... The emperor is so miserable. His beloved woman turns out to be his brother's wife, and he can't even bring her into the palace openly.
No, he had to find a way to help the emperor fulfill his wish.
In the pavilion of the rockery, the eldest princess said to Lin Yue, "I know Jingyun has been away at the border for three years, and it's normal for you to be lonely and unbearable."
"But even if someone is protecting you, you still have to be careful and don't get pregnant."
"Even though they will be my nephews and grandnephews by then, I don't want to see you risk your life."
Lin Yue's three views were almost shattered: [What the hell? ]
[Implying that I'm having an affair?]
[Fuck! Xiao Huaiqing alone is enough to annoy me, and now there's a Grand Princess. Are all of you in the royal family crazy?]
The Grand Princess: “…”? ? ?
You are sick, your whole family is sick.
I'm doing this for your own good, how dare you scold me!
"Lin Yue, there aren't many elders as open-minded as me!"
"You have to cherish it, okay?"
"Just like me, all three of my children are born to princes-in-law. He can die with peace of mind."
Lin Yue: "..."? ? ?
So when you were young...
The eldest princess looked proud and said, "When I was young, I didn't have many. Apart from my husband, I only had about twenty male favorites in private!"
"Many of them are my personal guards. Not only are they young and handsome, they're also strong. Most importantly... they're always available at my beck and call, and they wouldn't dare resist!"
Lin Yue: "..."
