Chapter 73 Lessons, I won’t be so kind
"Master, it's Qingxue's fault. I will definitely teach her well in the future. Please don't be angry." Little Chen advised softly.
Lin Ruhui's face brightened slightly, and he talked about Lin Qingxue's marriage, "I have no intention of marrying Prince Jing. If you are free in the next two days, go to the palace and talk to the Imperial Concubine."
Xiao Chen looked embarrassed. "I know what you mean, Master. Qingxue is simple-minded and cannot cope with the twists and turns of the royal family. I hinted at her several times before, but the imperial concubine was determined to make Qingxue her daughter-in-law. I had no choice..."
In Lin Ruhui's heart, she has always been a virtuous and kind person, so when she said this, Lin Ruhui believed it.
"You don't have to worry about this matter. Go back and see Qingxue first."
"Yes, I am also afraid that the child will do something stupid."
After Xiao Chen left, Wang Cheng, the kitchen manager, entered the study carefully.
"Master, there's a letter from Jiangzhou."
"Let me see it." Lin Ruhui's expression eased a little.
Jiangzhou is his hometown and his roots. His old mother and younger siblings are all there.
Since he stayed in Beijing to take up his post, he seldom went back home. His mother knew he was busy and never bothered him too much. Every time she wrote to him, it was always about something important.
He couldn't wait to open the letter.
The letter was written by his second brother, describing the recent situation at home and telling him that everyone, young and old, was doing well, so he could rest assured.
Finally, she mentioned Lin Qingxue's coming of age. As a grandmother, it was only right and reasonable for her to come and tie her granddaughter's hair at such an important moment.
There is also the marriage of my second brother’s eldest sister, Lin Lanyue.
Don't be fooled by this girl's gentle name, she has a famously tough personality. Even at such a young age, she is already feared by the entire Jiangzhou city.
She was so beautiful that the matchmaker almost broke the threshold of her house when she just came of age.
Later, when she was out for fun, she was kidnapped by someone. Unexpectedly, she kicked the playboy and almost killed him.
Just like that, Lin Lanyue, who was already known for her bravery, became famous in one battle, and her name has since spread throughout Jiangzhou. Those who originally wanted to marry into the Lin family immediately gave up the idea, and no one dared to propose marriage anymore.
She is already seventeen years old this year, but still has not found a marriage.
The second brother and his wife could no longer sit still, so they begged their mother to take her to Beijing, hoping that he would find a good marriage for Lin Lanyue in Shengjing.
Lin Ruhui's brows slowly furrowed.
My niece Lin Lanyue is a girl who is even more troublesome than Lin Miaoyin.
Where could he find a good husband for her?
People in Shengjing value family background and reputation the most. Who would marry a wild girl who grew up in the countryside?
Even if he married her for his sake, Lin Lanyue's fierce nature would be exposed in just three days, causing great unrest in the family, and they would then become a resentful couple.
But he is the pillar of the family, and he has owed so much to his mother and second brother over the years. Now that they have asked, how can he refuse?
With a sigh, he instructed Manager Wang, "You go to Jiangzhou in person to pick up the old lady and the eldest sister to go to the capital."
"Yes, I will obey your orders."
Wang Cheng glanced at Lin Ruhui, who was looking depressed, and advised, "Master, you should be less angry and take care of yourself, otherwise the old lady will come and see you like this and worry about you again."
Everyone said that their prime minister was a sycophant, but he knew in his heart that the prime minister just wanted to be a loyal minister.
If the Queen had not intervened, the Prime Minister would never have allowed the eldest daughter to marry into Prince Ning's Mansion.
"I saved it, you go ahead." Lin Ruhui finally calmed down his anger.
"I'll take my leave."
The moment Wang Cheng left, looking at his hunched back, Lin Ruhui realized that he had become so old.
The two are the same age, but years of hard work have made Wang Cheng look much older.
He had been a book boy beside Lin Ruhui since he was young. Later, after Lin Ruhui stayed in Shengjing, he became the manager of the mansion and managed the Lin family diligently.
Because of this friendship, Lin Ruhui usually takes his words to heart.
…
Prince Ning's Mansion, Pine and Bamboo Courtyard.
Lin Miaoyin had just arrived with Yuzhu when she saw Beigong You walking out in a hurry.
Feng Ming immediately asked, "My Lord, what are you doing..."
"You've come just in time. Come with me." Beigong You glanced at Lin Miaoyin beside him and explained, "I have something to do and need to leave the palace. I won't be checking today."
After he finished speaking, he quickly jumped on the horse without waiting for Lin Miaoyin to speak.
Feng Ming followed closely behind.
Watching the master and servant leave, Yuzhu curled her lips, "The princess came all the way here, and he left. Isn't this just kidding me?"
"Forget it, let's go." Lin Miaoyin went back to her room to read.
Not long after, she got the news.
The Minister of Personnel recommended by Beigong You a few days ago had a problem, and he demoted a counselor as soon as he took office.
That counselor was stubborn and rigid, and he often complained to Beigong You.
The Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel was recommended by Beigong You himself, but as soon as he took office he demoted the supervisor who did not get along with him. If someone said that this was not Beigong You's intention, I'm afraid no one would believe it.
Even if Beigong You did not intervene in this matter, the actions of the Minister of Personnel were obviously an attempt to curry favor with Beigong You.
In short, Beigong You cannot be unrelated to this matter.
But he is a prince after all, and he has made military achievements. Emperor Ming would not be disappointed in him because of such a small matter. At most, he would give him a small punishment and a severe warning.
Lin Miaoyin thought that Beigong You would be back by mid-afternoon at the latest, but there was no movement from Songzhuyuan until the evening.
Her right eyelid twitched.
Nothing will happen, right?
They haven't divorced yet. If anything happens to Beigong Youru, she, the Princess Ning, will definitely not be able to escape.
She was just about to ask Yuzhu to find out when she heard a noise coming from the kitchen.
Soon, Yuzhu ran in in a panic, "Princess, it's bad. Old Lady Sun is coming over here aggressively, saying that she will risk her life to settle the score with you. Old Lady Sun is very strong, I'm afraid you will suffer, please hide quickly."
"What's going on?"
"I only heard her say that Dingxiang's face was damaged by your treatment."
Dingxiang's face was damaged by medical treatment. How is this possible?
"I also think it's impossible. When Dingxiang came to let the princess check her face two days ago, she was basically healed. How could she get worse again? This is strange." Yuzhu was puzzled.
As she was speaking, Mrs. Sun rushed into the yard.
Behind her was the housekeeper Du Zhong, "Mrs. Sun, it's no use calling me here. Everything needs evidence. If you don't have any evidence and you say that the princess ruined Ding Xiang's face with her medical treatment, you will be punished with a stick!"
Granny Sun stood still and pulled away the veil covering Ding Xiang's face. "Who said I don't have evidence? Here is the evidence!"
"My daughter Xiang'er has been seeing her for the past few days, and she gave her the medicines she used. Now her face has become like this, who else could it be if it wasn't her who did it?"
She felt very regretful.
If she had known that Xiang'er's face would become like this, she would never have believed her words and asked Xiang'er to come and see her face.
How could a vindictive person change his nature overnight and care about them?
It's obvious that they are pretending. Take advantage of their let down of vigilance to teach them a severe lesson.
She knew that this vicious woman wouldn't be so kind!
