Although she is called an old lady, Yuan's mother is actually not that old. She just worked in the fields in her early years, and there are always some traces of hard work between her eyebrows.
Although he is rich now, his aesthetic taste has not kept up. He looks a bit out of place in wearing bright red and green robes and huge gold bracelets on his hands.
Although Yuan Shaojun was a filial son, he grew up in luxury and looked down on his mother's rusticity.
"Okay, mother, your fiftieth birthday will be in a few days. Many of the noble families in the capital will come, and even His Majesty will surely come. You don't know the etiquette of the banquet, so I'll count on Lin Chunhuan to take care of it."
"Son, I know you look down on her, but if you waste her too much time, and something goes wrong at the banquet, it will be a disgrace to our Yuan family. It's better to let her go for a few days and talk about it after the birthday banquet."
Hearing this, although Yuan's mother was indignant, she didn't say anything else, "Forget it, forget it. I'll listen to you."
"It's just that Lin Chunhuan is a bitch. Son, you have to hurry up and get Linglong pregnant as soon as possible. Then I'll go and ask His Majesty to grant the marriage and divorce that bitch Lin Chunhuan!"
I felt a kind of indescribable irritation in my heart.
His cousin Jiang Linglong had been engaged before, but the family broke off the engagement because of her poor health. In addition, Jiang Linglong's father was addicted to gambling, and her mother had worked in a brothel before.
The emperor would naturally not marry him a woman of such background, and she was not even qualified to be his concubine.
But in Yuan Shaojun's opinion, if Lin Chunhuan hadn't intervened, he would have been with his beloved cousin long ago. It was true that he disliked Lin Chunhuan for being boring.
But she was more angry that she used her status to suppress Jiang Linglong, so she allowed Yuan's mother to suppress her.
But today... he felt a strange emotion in his heart, and felt that Lin Chunhuan was not as vicious as he had thought before.
Yuan Shaojun agreed to a few words casually and turned to leave. If he encountered such an upset situation on normal days, he would definitely go to Linglong, but today... that slender figure kept lingering in his mind.
For the remaining few days, the old lady was much quieter.
Although Lin Chunhuan could see that the man looked at her as if he wanted to eat her, she didn't know what Yuan Shaojun said, but he really didn't make things too difficult for her.
That's fine.
She was able to calm down and prepare for the birthday party.
On June 13th, it was Mrs. Yuan’s 50th birthday.
Before dawn, Lin Chunhuan had already gotten up and started preparing. Of course, she did not forget to take out the ointment in the sachet and use it.
Not knowing whether those props were really that effective, Lin Chunhuan was unsure and could only try the ointment first... If the ointment could really make the emperor respond to her.
Then her journey ahead will be much easier!
Fortunately, the scent of the ointment lasts for a long time after being used once, so she doesn't have to worry about it being wasted.
The banquet lasted for a long time. In front of outsiders, both the old lady and Yuan Shaojun treated her very well. The old lady was very concerned about her reputation and would not let herself leave a reputation of mistreating her daughter-in-law.
Lin Chunhuan didn't care and joined them in the show absent-mindedly.
It was not until the end of the dinner that the emperor entered the general's mansion in disguise.
Others didn't know that the emperor was coming, but Lin Chunhuan could recognize the hidden figure at a glance.
"Madam, please take good care of the guests outside. My mother and I have distinguished guests to entertain and cannot take care of them for the time being." Yuan Shaojun ordered coldly.
After that day, in order not to do anything to let Jiang Linglong down, Yuan Shaojun deliberately treated her coldly. Of course, only Yuan Shaojun felt the coldness, and Lin Chunhuan didn't notice it at all.
Knowing that he was going to the inner hall to see the emperor, Lin Chunhuan didn't say much. When he could no longer see Yuan Shaojun, he turned around and went to the backyard.
She even entertained the guests for them. Did she really think she had nothing to do after eating?
"Hey, why do I feel that the young lady seems to be much more beautiful than before?"
During the banquet, several men pointed and talked at Lin Chunhuan's leaving figure, their tone filled with undisguised desire. When they heard this, someone immediately agreed.
"Yes, she just passed by me, and that fragrance, wow..."
"General Yuan is so lucky, hahahaha..."
As a group of people were veiled in insults, the corner of Lin Chunhuan's clothes disappeared. She was not unaware of the gazes of those people lingering on her private parts.
But at this time, she did not feel ashamed, but extremely excited!
This at least proves that the ointment really works! That's why those men couldn't wait to tear off their disguises in public!
"Miss, are you really not going to keep an eye on the banquet?" Ke'er took the clothes that Lin Chunhuan had changed out of with some hesitation.
Lin Chunhuan took off the luxurious dress she wore for the banquet and changed into casual clothes. She didn't want the two girls to know too much about these things. "I have more important things to do."
"You go and keep an eye on the banquet, and let Caihuan accompany me."
Caihuan is a mute. Although she is skilled in martial arts, she is shy. Apart from obeying orders, she has no other questions. After all, it was the emperor who was assassinated.
Although this incident happened in Yuan Mansion in the previous life, she had always been at the front to support Yuan Shaojun. By the time she learned about this incident, the emperor had already been sent back to the palace.
So she didn't know what exactly would happen then.
It is true that she wants to get close to the emperor, but she does not want to risk her life for this matter. The best way is to wear the colorful ring and act according to circumstances.
Although Ke'er was hesitant, she obeyed, nodded, and turned to leave.
Lin Chunhuan, wearing a colorful ring, walked to the carp pond in the backyard and sat down.
This is a small pond with a few lifeless fish in it. However, because the view is blocked, if others don’t know in advance that there are people here, they will not notice this place even if they enter the backyard.
Caihuan followed silently behind. If Lin Chunhuan didn't speak, she wouldn't move either.
However, only about a cup of tea had passed, and before Lin Chunhuan could react, Caihuan had already grabbed her arm with one hand and flew behind a more hidden rockery.
"Is someone coming?!"
When it really came to this, Lin Chunhuan was so nervous that his palms were sweating, and he lowered his voice when asking.
Cai Huan quickly signed, "This person is very strong and has strong murderous intent. Don't make a sound."
Lin Chunhuan cherished his life, quickly covered his mouth and nodded repeatedly.
"How dare you to assassinate the current emperor!"
"Protect His Majesty!"
"Oh no, the hidden weapon is poisonous..."
“…”
The chaos outside did not last long and soon quieted down. No one knew where Yuan Shaojun and his mother had gone, and Lin Chunhuan had not heard any voice from them.
It wasn't until everything outside was completely quiet that Lin Chunhuan leaned over to take a look after Caihuan nodded. She was so scared that she almost rolled off the rockery.
