Chapter 14 The Lin family went to eat melons with their families, while Minister Lin stayed at home alone The one

who lost the most face in this morning court session was the third prince.

When he left the court session, many people looked at him with an indescribable look, which made him depressed.

"Why do they look at me with such eyes? What's wrong with me using some tricks to find a wife?"

The third prince was very dissatisfied with the way these people looked at him. He felt that he was not wrong at all.

The crown prince and the second prince moved their mouths and hesitated to speak, and finally could only pat his shoulders.

Just be happy.

After Lin Mo returned home from the court session, he lay down on the bed as soon as possible.

"No, no, I have to take a nap. Don't call me before dinner."

System: [Why are you still taking a nap? Do you want us to go out for a walk? There are actually many melons in the capital. 】

Lin Ran, who came to see Lin Mo, stopped immediately.

The system continued: [The gossip in the capital may be more exciting than the gossip in the court. Hurry up and go out for a walk, so that I can collect some energy. You don’t have any work, you just stand there every day, what’s the tiring thing. 】

Lin Mo was not very satisfied when he heard this. What do you mean she has no work? Eating gossip also consumes brain cells, okay.

[Just let me sleep for a while. After lunch, I will take you out for a walk. I will also take my eldest sister with me. My eldest sister often goes out to attend banquets. When the time comes, I will take you to a banquet in the afternoon. 】

The system cheered when it heard this: [Great! Banquets are usually places where accidents happen frequently! There are gossips to eat again!

Lin Ran outside: ... What

do you mean banquets are usually places where accidents happen? She has attended countless banquets outside for so many years, and she has never seen any major incidents.

At most, it's just adultery, drowning, framing, poisoning, no, why does it feel like there are so many things happening the more she thinks about it.

"What! You said she's going out this afternoon?"

Minister Lin and Madam Lin felt mixed emotions when they heard that Lin Mo was going out.

"No, she must not be allowed to go out alone. There are countless people in the capital who want to kill her. Many corrupt officials are afraid that she will expose her affairs, so they will definitely find a chance to kill her."

"Although the emperor said that he has sent people to protect her in secret, it is inevitable that there will be loopholes."

Although his little daughter is very upset, no matter how upset he is, she is still his child, and he will never let his child fall into danger.

There may be protection in his own home. The emperor has sent secret guards to protect her, and there are guards at home. Ordinary people cannot get in.

But after going out, it is not certain.

Lin Ran knew that her parents would not agree, and she said with some embarrassment: "How can I refuse her later? If I suddenly stop her from going out, I have to find an excuse."

The family of three thought about the excuse, and Lin Qi, who came back from studying, also joined in the question.

Seeing that the hair of this family was about to be bald, the dark guards hiding in the dark could not help but show up.

"Well, Mr. Lin and Mrs. Lin, we have already checked that the system on Mr. Xiaolin has a protective function, which means that it can protect Mr. Xiaolin. Even we dare not get too close to Mr. Xiaolin, so you can rest assured."

Lin's family: ... Then why didn't you say it when we were thinking of a way, just to watch our good show, right?

At noon, Lin Mo discussed with the system where to go while eating.

[In fact,

you don’t have to go to the banquet. I’ll take you to the streets. Sometimes the gossip in other people’s homes is also very interesting.] System: [Can’t we have both? Let’s go to the banquet first and then go to the streets on the way back. It’s the best of both worlds!]

Lin Mo: [It’s not impossible, but I think it’s someone’s banquet today. I think it’s the banquet of the young lady of the Marquis of Changning. I’m not very familiar with her, but she has a good relationship with my eldest sister.]

Lin Jiaxi listened to this one-on-one conversation and his heart was basically numb.

Suddenly, the system exclaimed: [Host! I really detected a big melon! It’s the big melon of the young lady of the Marquis of Changning! She held this banquet for a purpose!]

Lin Mo asked quickly: [What is the purpose? Tell me quickly! 】

Others also listened with their ears tilted, the system really aroused their curiosity.

System: [It’s hard to say now, I’ll tell you in detail after we go to the banquet. It will be more powerful if you tell it to the person concerned, and you will feel more involved when you listen. 】

Lin Mo thought about it and seemed to agree, it wouldn’t matter if he took a while.

Minister Lin and his wife Lin Qi screamed in their hearts: We want to listen! We are not going to the banquet even if you are going!

Lin Qi glanced at her two sisters, and curiosity finally won out.

"It’s not good for you two girls to go out like this. What if something happens at the banquet? Why don’t I take you with me?"

Lin Qi said righteously, as if he really cared about them.

Mrs. Lin, the Minister of the Court, looked at her son with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and didn't know what to say in her heart.

No, when did you become so shameless! Don't you have to study in the afternoon?

Lin Ran also looked at his elder brother with a complicated expression. I didn't expect you to be such a elder brother. Eating melons is more important than studying, right?

Lin Mo didn't think much about it. It didn't matter if there was one more person or one less person. It didn't affect her eating melons.

"Okay, then big brother will go with us."

Madam Lin said quickly, "Why don't I go with you? It just so happens that I have some friendship with the wife of Marquis Changning, and there are many ladies attending the banquet. It's boring for me to stay at home alone, so I might as well go and connect with everyone."

Minister Lin looked at his wife in shock: So you're just leaving me alone at home, right? What should I do if you all leave?

He, a dignified official of the court, would definitely not attend such a banquet in the back house. Those who attend are basically the ladies and young ladies of the back house and those unmarried young men. This kind of banquet is also an important occasion for blind dates, so many unmarried young men will be taken there by their mothers.

Basically, no head of the family has ever gone there, and you, a grown man, would be a bit out of place among this group of people.

In the end, only Minister Lin was left at home. Looking at the backs of his wife, children and daughters, Minister Lin shed bitter tears in his heart.

He also wanted to see the excitement!

On the carriage to Changning Marquis's Mansion, Lin Mo felt inexplicably excited.

She rarely attended such banquets. She didn't like dealing with those noble ladies. Moreover, she preferred to mingle with ordinary people and listen to some trivial things.

She didn't expect that this time she would formally deal with them to eat melons.
