Chapter 526 Separate property and live separately
Mrs. Lin couldn't help laughing wryly when she heard this, and looked at Xiaoman: "The county master doesn't know something, that's why I came here to complain."
"My master doesn't regard the children of the folk women as his own children at all. In order to protect the children of the folk women, the folk women are willing to do anything."
Xiaoman frowned and looked at Mrs. Lin: "Ma'am, do you mean that you have evidence to prove that your husband is our former Master Lin Shangshu, and he doesn't treat your child as his own?"
Mrs. Lin's face became ugly: "Yes, the county lord, the emperor, you are all here today, so the women are here to speak out today."
"Zezhi, the eldest son of a commoner's wife, is talented and famous in all of Kyoto, but why hasn't there been a Jinshi yet?"
Speaking of this, the emperor also frowned. Speaking of which, he and Gu Xiangning had also discussed to see how to invite Lin Zezhi to the court, but they had not been successful.
Thinking of this, the emperor glanced at Lin Zezhi, and asked Mrs. Lin curiously: "Then Mrs. Lin, what is the reason?"
Mrs. Lin smiled bitterly again: "That's because my Zezhi already has the title of Jinshi. He has passed the Jinshi exam, but it is under the control of my master and the current governor of the Kyoto government, Zhang Peng."
"My son's Jinshi has become the son of Lin's concubine, Lin Xin, that Lin Xin is just an idiot!"
Hearing this, the emperor suddenly changed color. If what Mrs. Lin said is true, this matter involves the root of the country, even though it is said.
The fundamental foundation of the country is the people, but the pillars are these capable talented scholars. It is simply unforgivable that some people make decisions on this.
Seeing the emperor's angry look, Gu Xiangning said, "Speaking of which, I just remembered one thing. Your Majesty, Mrs. Lin was not the first to choose Gao Yuzheng."
"Instead, I went to the Kyoto government office to file a complaint, but Mr. Zhang didn't accept it at the time, and advised Mrs. Lin not to be impulsive. It seemed like a threat."
"It's no wonder Mrs. Lin is so anxious to file an imperial petition. It turned out to be a little late. I don't know if it's the empress or Zezhi who will be unlucky."
The queen mother was even more angry when she heard this. She who loved the queen in the first place was extremely angry when she knew how the queen was treated at home.
It turned out that the queen was very favored at home, it was just an illusion, the most terrifying thing was that she had lied to them for so long, no wonder this Mrs. Lin did everything possible to send the queen to learn art.
If it wasn't for learning martial arts abroad, I'm afraid the queen wouldn't know what it would be like to be harmed by this pair of concubines, mother and daughter! The imperial concubine looked at things in a one-sided manner again.
And Zhang Peng knelt down directly at this time, knowing that he was done playing. After all, what he did back then was not so clever, but he didn't think that this matter might be found out.
So now as long as the investigation is done, the evidence can be found immediately, so Zhang Peng knelt down directly: "The emperor forgives the crime, I know I was wrong."
Xiao Man shook her head, she never thought that a doting concubine and destroying his wife would cause such trouble, the emperor and Gu Xiangning looked at each other, maybe they have to be busy with some things recently.
But Mrs. Lin saw that everyone believed it, so she continued: "The empress dowager, the empress, the noble concubine, the county head, the prime minister, and the women still have something to say."
"It's useless for my master to spoil his concubine and destroy his wife. It's useless for a commoner's wife to be the main wife. The county master and the commoner's wife also understand, so I implore the emperor to make the decision. I hope that the commoner's wife will be married to my family and live separately."
Live separately? Xiaoman's eyes lit up in an instant, thinking that Mrs. Lin's daughter is the empress, and such a thing as reconciling and leaving must never happen.
After all, this is a matter of Empress Empress' face. If Empress Empress' mother and father reconcile, there will be stains on her body.
But it's interesting to divide the property and live separately. In name, they are still a couple, but they don't live together, and the property is also divided.
If you think about it, it's like a family split. Lin Zezhi and Lin Xin are separated. Master Lin follows Lin Xin, and Mrs. Lin follows her son Zezhi. No matter how you look at it, it's a win-win situation.
And in this way, Mrs. Lin doesn't have to worry about her own safety or her child's future, Xiaoman directly agreed and looked at the emperor.
The emperor also nodded, and at this time, Master Lin and the concubine of the Lin family were finally brought into the palace. Master Lin looked at the emperor, and suddenly a bad feeling came out of his heart.
Xiaoman didn't talk too much, just looked at Master Lin: "Master Lin, Mrs. Lin sued you for spoiling your concubine and destroying your wife and murdering her child, do you agree to this matter?"
Master Lin's pupils contracted, and he knelt down on the ground, looking at the emperor: "Please forgive me, Xiaomin has no other intentions, but the empress is highly valued by the emperor."
"I just want the empress to say something nice for Xiaomin."
Isn't this sentence an admission in disguise? The imperial concubine was also a little anxious, but the emperor stood up all of a sudden: "That's enough. Since Mrs. Lin's request is to divide the property and live separately, then agree."
Hearing the words "dividing property and living separately", Master Li's eyes widened all of a sudden, apparently he did not expect that this is what Mrs. Lin was asking for.
In this way, as long as Mrs. Lin and Lin Zezhi are around, his beloved concubine and wife will be there for a day. In this way, there is no hope for his recovery in this life.
Mrs. Lin got her own answer, so she took Lin Zezhi back. The emperor and Gu Xiangning looked at each other, and looked at Gu Xiangning: "Gu Xiang, come with me."
Gu Xiangning raised his eyebrows, but still glanced at Xiaoman: "Xiaoman, wait for me for a while, I'll be fine soon."
Such shameless Gu Xiangning also made the emperor a little helpless, Xiaoman nodded: "Okay, I happen to have something to say to the empress."
Waiting for the emperor and Gu Xiangning to leave, Xiaoman then looked at the queen: "Your Majesty, have you seen it, your mother has come this far for you, separate the property!"
"Your mother is more courageous than you!"
When Xiaoman said this, the queen suddenly felt a little guilty. For so many years, she entered the palace, but she ignored her mother's life and looked at her mother.
Eyes are a little moist: "Mother, I'm sorry, my daughter is unfilial, I don't know that my brother has been wronged like this!"
Mrs. Lin smiled: "What's the matter, do you still remember that if the first emperor hadn't ordered you to enter the palace, I'm afraid all the ministers in Kyoto."
"I didn't even know that the Lin family still has your brother and you are also the children of Master Lin Shangshu."
Speaking of this, Mrs. Lin was also helpless: "Okay, the matter is over, and I don't tell you these things because I am worried that your temper is too impatient."
"It's all right now, you also have your own child, protect your own child, don't worry about other things, the women will go back first."
In fact, Mrs. Lin also wanted to stay and have a few words with her daughter, but with so many people around her, she couldn't say anything private, so it's better not to say anything.
The queen looked at the court lady beside her: "Si Xia, Si Qiu, you all have to work hard, go to the Lin's house and help Madam Lin move!"
The two maids saluted the queen immediately, and then left the palace with Mrs. Lin. Here, Xiao Man raised his eyebrows and looked at Master Lin and his concubine: "Master Lin."
"You haven't taken your little concubine back to guard it, but you have to see clearly whether what Mrs. Lin took away is theirs, otherwise, don't talk too much in the future."
"Also, as your son, Lin Zezhi should also have a share of your property, go back and divide the family!"
Mr. Lin is upset, but what else can he do? The emperor agreed to this matter, so he could only leave after saluting with these people. The concubine and concubine next door left without saying a word.
The imperial concubine saw that the three remaining queens, Xiaoman and empress dowager, saluted directly and then turned around to leave, but she was very angry in her heart.
Looking at Lianzi next to him: "Lianzi, didn't you just say that the younger brother of the county lord was abducted and sold, now there is no need, just kill him, let her see what happens to meddling in my own business!"
Hearing these words, Lianzi's eyes flashed with joy: "Yes, ma'am."
It seemed that the next moment they could see Xiao Man's younger brother being killed and Xiao Man beside him in great pain. On the other hand, Xiaoman didn't know anything about it.
He was still talking to the empress dowager, and in a hall further inside, the emperor and Gu Xiangning were also discussing matters. The emperor looked at Gu Xiangning: "Do you think there are many such things?"
Gu Xiangning raised his eyebrows: "Your Majesty, are you talking about impostors? How does this humble minister know?"
The emperor's face darkened: "Don't say you don't understand what I mean? I ask you, how about asking you to investigate this matter?"
Gu Xiangning was a little helpless: "Your Majesty, I still have to accompany my fiancée home. You also know that my fiancée has a bad temper. If I break my promise and become fat."
"I'm afraid you will be beaten by her so that you won't be able to get out of bed for half a month. For this half month, you have to take Weichen's leave!"
The emperor was almost pissed off, this Gu Xiangning actually threatened himself with half a month's vacation, and seeing Xiaoman came back, he was busy going to accompany his fiancée.
He doesn't even want to manage state affairs anymore, it's unreasonable: "You..."
Before the emperor could finish his words, he heard Gu Xiangning's words: "Your Majesty, this humble minister is very good! Besides, why don't you choose the obvious candidate for the emperor's matter?"
"We have been trying to find a way to get Zhen Zezhi to become an official in the court. This time is not a good opportunity. You can seal any official of Zezhi and let him investigate this matter!"
"You have pulled everyone into the court, if you still let people leave, then you are incompetent."
The emperor was so angry that his liver hurt: "You, you are the only one who is brave enough to talk to me like that in the entire Great Zhou Dynasty!"
Gu Xiangning, however, chuckled: "Your Majesty, don't flatter me like this, it's because my fiancée didn't come in, and my sister didn't come back."
"You said that if Weichen's sister knew what you did recently, what would she do to you?"
