Chapter 518

Chapter 518 The minister has a book to play

Gu Xiangning heard Mr. Lin's words, and looked at Mr. Lin with a tangled and funny face. You are really good at doing it! Knowing that women care about age.

You still say that, not to mention, who is younger, even though Xiaoman's achievements are great, it is because he started fighting at a young age.

As far as he knows, his youngest son, who is already 18 this year and 2 years older than Xiaoman, dares to say that he is young and ignorant when Xiaoman is young!

This made Gu Xiangning really not know what he was talking about, and Mr. Lin was also dumbfounded, because the county lord Xiaoman had already stood up and was about to leave.

Only then did Gu Xiangning speak: "Master Lin, your apology is so insincere, your Lin family..."

Having said that, Gu Xiangning shook his head with a smile, and chased after him. Looking at Xiaoman's angry face, Gu Xiangning laughed: "I said, why are you angry with an outsider?"

Xiao Man snorted: "What I hate the most is this kind of person, who actually brings a concubine with him, and doesn't know how the Empress's mother is treated at home."

Speaking of this, Xiaoman sighed: "In this day and age, the status of women is still too low."

Gu Xiangning didn't know what to say when he heard this, what should I say! With the appearance of Princess Qian Jiujiu and county head Xiaoman. In fact, the status of women is already much higher invisibly.

But it is simply impossible to compare with men, so I can only comfort Xiao Man with a smile: "Who can explain the relationship clearly."

"Besides, do you really think Mrs. Lin has no means? If there is no means, the struggle in the courtyard is not weaker than the war outside."

"I've died many times already. Don't worry too much. It's getting late. I'll take you back to the palace. Besides, what are you going to do about the Lin family?"

Xiaoman looked at Gu Xiangning suspiciously: "I didn't plan what to do? Isn't this all left to you to solve, my fiancé, it's time to use you."

"Dare to insult your fiancée like this, shouldn't you do something?"

Gu Xiangning coughed: "Since you let go, I will settle this matter."

The two of them said that they had already arrived at the gate of the Wangfu on horseback. The guard of the Wangfu saw that it was Xiaoman, so he hurriedly saluted: "I have met the county magistrate, welcome the magistrate back to the mansion."

Another guard had already gone to inform the current housekeeper of the palace. Seeing this situation, Gu Xiangning couldn't help being a little jealous: "Why don't you think I'm not treated like this when I go to the palace?"

"I'm the princess' cousin!"

Xiaoman rolled his eyes: "Are you promising? You are actually compared with your fiancée in the palace. I have lived in the palace for a long time."

"Going back to the palace is of course going back, and you come here when you arrive at the palace. Naturally, the treatment is different when you come and return."

Gu Xiangning watched Xiao Man forget what happened just now, and asked this question again, Gu Xiangning was also amused: "Okay, I'm kidding you, take it seriously."

"Since we have arrived at the palace, let's go back to the house to rest. I have to go back too, and I will wait for my news tomorrow morning, so that the Lin family and their son can't afford to walk around!"

Xiaoman nodded: "Be careful on the road, come and send me a message after morning."

Gu Xiangning nodded and left. At this moment, Xiaoman walked in. The new butler of the palace had already arrived at the door just now, just watching Xiaoman and Gu Xiangning talking.

He didn't come up, but now that Xiaoman came in, he stepped forward and saluted Xiaoman; "Welcome the county magistrate back to the mansion, your courtyard has been cleaned when Siqi comes back today."

Xiaoman nodded: "I'm sorry to trouble the butler, let's all go to rest, it's getting late."

After saying that, Xiaoman went back to her courtyard in the palace, washed and rested. On the other side, Mr. Lin, who just returned home, was in a bad mood.

Looking at Lin Xin, who was beaten into a pig's head, was still here, he suddenly became extremely angry, and looked at Lin Xin: "You say you are a rebellious son, who would not provoke you, but why would you provoke County Lord Yongxi?"

"This kid is alright, we don't know if our Lin family can survive or not."

The concubine of the Lin family frowned, she looked at Master Lin incomprehensibly: "Master, don't scold Xin'er, Xin'er has been beaten badly enough, you still scold him now."

"I mean, the county head is just a county head, and our daughter is a noble concubine! No matter how bad it is, there is still a queen. Why are you afraid of her being a county head?"

When Mr. Lin heard this, he wondered for the first time how his concubine could be so stupid, and looked at her: "What do you know? Although this county lord is the county lord."

"However, it is very different from other county lords. Let me just say this. This county lord chopped off our family with a knife. At most, he will be fined and grounded, and there will be no damage at all!"

The concubine of the Lin family screamed: "This is impossible, how could the emperor allow such a thing to happen?"

Lord Lin snorted coldly: "What do you know? This county head was conferred by the late emperor himself, the precious sister of the prince and princess, comparable to the confidant of the emperor and the late emperor."

"Can we mess with such a person? Let alone your daughter is a noble concubine. Let me tell you, even if the emperor puts the imperial concubine and the emperor into the harem, he will not touch the county magistrate."

Only then did the concubine of the Lin family realize what kind of person they had offended this time, but she didn't understand: "This, this, how could the court allow such a woman to exist?"

Master Lin sighed: "What do you know, who would dare to deny the credit of the Lord Yongxi? If it was a man, he would be comparable to another side-by-side king."

"The contribution of the side-by-side king is nothing more than winning a country and expanding its territory, and the contribution of this county lord is the same as that of the side-by-side king. But there is no reward."

"So much so that in the hearts of the emperor and all the soldiers, what the county magistrate does is worthy of forgiveness, not to mention, what is Xin'er? There is no slightest credit."''

"How dare you accuse the biggest hero who opened up the territory? Isn't this clearly the end of our Lin family?"

The concubine of the Lin family was really terrified at this time. She couldn't understand how a woman could be a hero who expanded the territory and conquered one-third of the land of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

"Master, what should we do now? Why don't we go to her house to apologize, let's kneel down and beg her, let Xin'er go, let our Lin family go."

Master Lin shook his head: "It's useless, from the moment I took you into the restaurant just now, there is no room for change."

"It would have been fine if I had taken my wife there."

The originally pale face of the concubine of the Lin family became even more shaky when she heard these words: "Why can't I be a concubine, but my wife can?"

Master Lin also had a bitter expression on his face: "You don't know why this county lord didn't enter the palace, but became Xiangye's fiancée. It was because of Xiangye's promise."

"He will be like the side-by-side king. He will never take a concubine in his life, and will only guard the county master."

The concubine of the Lin family was dumbfounded when she heard this: "You mean that the emperor also treated her to the county magistrate, and then the county magistrate rejected the emperor?"

This kind of thing is too shocking to the heart of the concubine of the Lin family. I can't believe that there are women in this world who are unwilling to enter the palace.

Go for the glory and wealth, but choose a couple for a lifetime. Of course, a couple for a lifetime is very attractive, but isn't that monstrous wealth more attractive?

Now is not the time to think about these things, but what to do if they have offended the county master: "Then master, what should we do now?"

Master Lin smiled wryly: "What else can I do? I will accept the siege when I go to the morning court tomorrow. If you are lucky, you can survive and be exiled or something. If you are unlucky..."

Needless to say the following words, but the concubine of the Lin family looked at Master Lin in disbelief: "How is this possible, our daughter is a noble concubine..."

Master Lin sighed; "I just hope my daughter won't be implicated."

The concubine of the Lin family still felt a little unbelievable: "Then we can go and ask the empress, after all, we are a family, even though we sent Wan'er into the palace..."

Master Lin smiled wryly again; "Speaking of which, I'm afraid that the county lord still wants to support the empress, otherwise, the county lord has always been magnanimous."

"How could you argue with Xin'er just because of a sentence?"

The more she listened like this, the more worried the concubine of the Lin family became: "Then isn't our daughter's situation getting worse recently?"

Under such circumstances, the two of them couldn't fall asleep either, and when the morning came with their eyes open, Mrs. Lin went to court early, but when the concubine of the Lin family was at home, she received a message.

Her daughter, the imperial concubine, was punished by the queen mother and her title was withdrawn, and the maid He Ye who was next to her was directly beaten to death. This happened yesterday.

As a result, the imperial concubine was sick for a day, and the emperor didn't even visit her. This made the concubine of the Lin family worry whether her daughter had fallen out of favor.

At this time, the morning court was also quiet. The emperor had just sat on the dragon chair. He had been thinking about it all night last night, and he already had some ideas in his mind.

As soon as he sat on the dragon chair, the eunuch's voice spread: "There is a book to play, and I will retire without incident."

Mr. Lin has been flustered since he participated in the morning court. He didn't sleep last night, and his dark circles are also big. If it has something to do with it, the hungry minister will care about it.

But he shook his head completely, and now he was even more startled when he heard the eunuch's voice, he was worried that someone would speak, but Gu Xiangning lived up to his expectations and spoke.

"Your Majesty, I have a book to play."

Seeing that it was Gu Xiangning, the emperor felt a little headache: "What do you want to say, Aiqing?"

Gu Xiangning smiled at the corner of his mouth: "I just want to ask, what is the hero who opened up the territory of the Great Zhou?"

As soon as these words came out, the whole hall gasped. How dare Master Gu ask this question? Even the emperor sat there with a face of astonishment, wondering why Gu Xiangning suddenly asked such a question?
