The Wang family, but the engagement has already been called off, so we can skip that for now. There's also Princess Xilan. He and Wang Mengyun never married in this lifetime, so will he become her consort?
If he became the emperor's son-in-law, Yang Cui would not be worried at all. In order to prevent the maternal relatives from becoming too powerful, the current dynasty stipulated that the emperor's sons-in-law could not hold official positions and could not have real power. Yang Cui was not worried about Lin Shikang, who had no real power.
Lin Shih-kang's most important benefactor is the future emperor, now the third prince!
In the book, the third prince valued him highly. Later, when the third prince ascended the throne, his status rose accordingly, and he truly had a bright future!
Lin Shih-kang has been in Kyoto for so long, he might have already joined the Third Prince's faction.
No, if he's one of the Third Prince's men, then why would the Third Prince allow Lin Shikang to go to Gan Ning? As a prince, how could he not know about the situation in Gan Ning?
Is it possible that Lin Shikang is no longer pleasing to the Third Prince?
Yang Cui imagined a lot.
Cen Xiao should know the most about things in officialdom.
"Honey, I have something to tell you, but don't ask me how I know, okay?"
"Okay, go ahead."
"Send someone to investigate whether Lin Shikang and the Third Prince have any dealings. If they do, you must find a way to prevent the Third Prince from trusting Lin Shikang! You must destroy their relationship!"
Cen Xiao paused for a moment, then replied, "Okay."

"OK."
Cen Xiao agreed verbally, but his heart was in turmoil. He felt that his wife meant that the Third Prince would ascend the throne in the future, and that Lin Shikang was also one of the Third Prince's men. But she had never left Wan'an County. How did she know these things?
His wife's secret was bigger than he had imagined!
...
It was already bright outside. After washing up, the family prepared to have breakfast and then go home.
When they arrived at the canteen, everyone looked at Yang Cui's family with curiosity, presumably because the news of what happened last night had already spread far and wide.
Madam Sun came over with a smile and greeted her, "Madam Cen, how are you?"
"Thank you for your concern, we're fine."
“Then let’s go down the mountain together after dinner. My bodyguards are also top-notch.” Madam Sun admired Yang Cui’s courage and knew that she had just experienced an assassination attempt last night, so she was probably safe today. That’s why she suggested going with her.
"Thank you, but let's split up. It wouldn't be good if there were assassins along the way, and we ended up getting involved."
The words had barely left his mouth when a scream rang out: "Someone's dead! Someone's dead!"
Su Yutang stayed in the canteen with the child. Yang Cui, Cen Xiao, and the others rushed over and saw a disheveled girl lying in the grass. It turned out to be...?
