Chapter 192: Linshan Manor, Rich Enough to Enemy a Country

Seeing the concern in his eyes, Feng Xiyao didn't know what to say for a moment.

How can it be good? They are being kept as pets.

There are people watching over her all around, she turned around and said.

"This is my friend. I want to talk to him. You guys go over there and wait!"

“…”

Several palace maids looked at each other, and without waiting for them to speak, Feng Xiyao spoke angrily.

"What? Are you afraid that I will run away? This is the imperial palace. How can I run away?"

Seeing that the queen was angry, several people looked at each other and finally had to retreat.

"yes!"

“…”

Only after the people around him had retreated far away did the anger on Feng Xiyao's face fade away.

She sighed and lowered her eyes.

"Okay, didn't you see it?"

Lin Mingli frowned slightly: "Why? Is it because the emperor... doesn't like you anymore?"

Emperors have always been fickle-hearted. Even if one has heard before that the emperor dotes on the empress, it is impossible for him to love her forever, after all, there are so many women in the harem.

Feng Xiyao shook his sleeves and pretended not to care.

"He really doesn't like me anymore, but he doesn't want to let me go!"

She squeezed her hands and said in a very sad tone: "I am still locked up by him now."

“…”

Lin Mingli felt uncomfortable when he saw the sadness in her eyes.

But he was powerless. With his current abilities, it was impossible for him to compete with the imperial power.

After a long silence, he said softly, "Can I... help you with something?"

“…”

Feng Xiyao looked up at him, and seeing that his eyes were filled with worry about her, she curled her lips and smiled.

"Thank you, but I don't want to implicate you. I can't even escape from this palace, so how can you help me?"

Lin Mingli tightened his clenched fists.

I am really useless and can't help her at all.

After finally seeing an acquaintance, Feng Xiyao didn't want to continue talking about these things and changed the subject.

"By the way, why are you in the palace? Are you the son of some minister?"

Lin Mingli: "No, I'm a businessman. I recently had to do some business with the royal family... so I went to the palace!"

"merchant!"

Feng Xiyao nodded in understanding.

Her eyes widened when she thought of the Linshan Manor mentioned in some book, which was rich enough to rival a country.

"Your last name is also Lin, so you are not the son of the owner of Linshan Manor, are you?"

Lin Mingli thought she already knew it, but now he saw her face full of shock.

He nodded with a smile in his eyes: "That's me, but my father is out traveling, so I'm the one who manages the family business now."

“…”

Feng Xiyao looked him up and down, and didn't expect that she would hit the richest man with her fall.

Although Lin Shanzhuang was only mentioned casually in the book, his status in Daxia was very high.

Not only did he often give porridge to the common people, he also built houses for orphans without parents and found teachers to teach them...

The Lin family are generous and often do good deeds.

This is also why even though the hero destroyed Da Xia in the end, the Lin family members were safe and sound.

There are too many people who have benefited from Lin Shanzhuang. If anyone dares to touch them, the people will not agree.

In order to win the support of the people, the male protagonist did not dare to touch the Lin family, and even took Lin Mingli's sister Lin Fei'er into the harem.

Lin Fei'er was also influenced by the male protagonist's halo. She fell in love with him at first sight and was willing to use her family's money to help him.

“…”

Feng Xiyao gave him a thumbs up: "Awesome!"

Lin Mingli shook her head and said with a wry smile: "You are amazing. I thought you were unmarried at first, but I didn't expect that you are not only married, but also the current queen!"

Feng Xiyao waved her hands and said, "I also wish I hadn't gotten married."

Speaking of this, she was also very angry.

Why don't you wear it earlier? That way you might not encounter the tyrant, won't have anything to do with him, and can live a carefree life.

Seeing that she was so unhappy as a queen, Lin Mingli moved his fingers under his sleeves.

He opened his mouth to say something, but a voice interrupted them both.

"Mr. Lin, why are you here?"

Mo Cangyan walked over and scanned the two of them with his sharp eyes.

He did not miss the look in Lin Mingli's eyes when he looked at Feng Xiyao, his eyes were slightly narrowed.

"Your Majesty, I...got lost and accidentally walked here."

Lin Mingli was indeed lost, but fortunately, he met the person he wanted to see. He entered the palace just to see Feng Xiyao.

"Oh, I'm lost!"

Mo Cangyan's smile did not reach his eyes.

He reached out and held Feng Xiyao's hand: "Do you know each other?"

Feng Xiyao didn't want to pay attention to him and tried to pull her hand back, but no matter what she did, the man held her hand tightly.

Finally, she sighed helplessly: "We met during the Lantern Festival."

Lantern Festival!

Thinking back to what his subordinates had reported when they went to look for her, that there was a man following her, he thought it must be the man in front of him.

Mo Cangyan nodded and held Feng Xiyao's hand tightly.

"The queen is really good at choosing people. Master Lin is the master of Lin Manor and is rich enough to rival an entire country."

Lin Mingli heard the danger in the man's tone and pursed her lips.

"Your Majesty, you are joking. I am just an ordinary businessman."

Hearing Mo Cangyan's uncomfortable tone, Feng Xiyao spoke lightly.

"What are you going to talk about? Go on. I'm going back to Fengchun Palace."

Mo Cangyan would not let her go like this.

When he heard that Lin Mingli was willing to hand over his family shop to the court, he was puzzled and could not understand why he did this.

Now seeing the look in his eyes when he looked at Feng Xiyao, he immediately understood.

So that's how it is!

He held Feng Xiyao and wouldn't let her leave. It was not easy for them to meet each other as old acquaintances, so of course they had to have a good chat.

Feng Xiyao turned around and glared at him: "What are you going to do?"

Mo Cangyan raised his hand and touched her face, smiling gently.

Then he looked at Lin Mingli: "I heard that Master Lin has a younger sister!"

“…”

Feng Xiyao and Lin Mingli looked at the person who was speaking at the same time, not knowing what he wanted to do.

"Your Majesty, I do have a younger sister, but she is still young..."

Before he could finish, Mo Cangyan nodded.

"Since there is one, then you should prepare it and let her enter the palace in three days!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Mingli immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, my sister is still young, and she has a spoiled temper. She is really not suitable to enter the palace!"

"Mo Cangyan, you..."

When Feng Xiyao met the man's gaze, the disgust in her eyes was about to overflow.

How could she not know what Mo Cangyan was thinking.

Since ancient times, the emperor wanted to control the ministers in the court, either by suppressing them with power or by marrying their daughters.

In this way, the front court and the harem were connected. If the ministers wanted to do something to offend the emperor, they had to consider the people in the harem.

Now Mo Cangyan wants Lin Mingli to hand over his sister in order to control the entire Lin Family Villa. Also, he hates himself because he thinks he and Lin Mingli have an affair that cannot be seen from the public!
