After waiting for First Princess Pingning to leave, Grand Madam sighed and spoke hoarsely: ”Before, First Princess Pingning wrote to me about this matter, and I didn't know if I should agree, or not tell you about this at the time. I thought that First Princess Pingning was just talking about it on a whim, but who would have known that she would actually come all the way back to the capital for this matter.
”Since First Princess Pingning came prepared this time, it doesn't matter if you agree or not, I'm afraid there's no choice in this matter. Since that's the case, why not just openly sell us to First Princess Pingning, making a marriage is much better than forming an enmity … Furthermore, First Princess Pingning has also said that as long as you are willing to agree to this marriage, she can give Auntie Zhong a chance to live. ”
She only thought Lin Pei genuinely liked the Auntie Zhong.
Lin Pei could not help but say: ”Actually, if Sister Shu were to marry into the First Princess Pingning Palace, it would save me a great burden. But if I were to really give my own daughter a Yin marriage, I am afraid that in the imperial court, this official's finger would be able to poke my head. ”Looking at Gu Jin, there has never been a father who made a Yin kiss with his daughter before.”
He wasn't just picking his daughter up. Doing this was really too wicked!
Grand Madam only said: ”Our Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion naturally cannot be agreed upon personally, we can only agree to it privately. As for what happens next, we can just hand it over to First Princess Pingning … I believe that according to the methods of First Princess Pingning, there is a way. ”
In fact, there were only two ways to go about it. One was for the royal family to bestow a marriage. With an imperial edict, even if everyone had the guts, they wouldn't dare to gossip behind their backs.
Secondly, to make the public know that Lin Shu had died, the two families had truly formed an evil relation with each other.
In the time it took to make a cup of tea, Lin Pei had already nodded his head.
When First Princess Pingning returned to the main hall, he went straight to the point, saying that First Princess Pingning had to grant the marriage to either Empress Dowager Wang or him.
With this, First Princess Pingning didn't ask what he should do about it.
Only, the Grand Madam had to give Lin Jia an explanation, and on the second day, she ordered people to lock Auntie Zhong and Lin You Lin inside the Green Pine Academy's woodshed. Other than people delivering food three times a day, the rest would not be bothered about it.
Coincidentally, Lin Pei had matters to attend to and thus left the capital. Otherwise, he would not have allowed the Grand Madam to lock him up no matter what.
When Lin Shu heard this news, the hand holding onto the brush stopped for a moment. After a long while, he finally spoke to Actinin Qin who had come up to him to answer: ”I understand, you may leave!”
No matter who was the most miserable out of this group of people, she would not feel pity for that person. It was just that Lin Geer was the most innocent person there.
”Last night, a spy who was watching over the Duke Palace said that Princess Changze went back last night and dragged all of her things out of her Wang Family. But who knew that Wang Pei refused to let Chun Geer go no matter what, so Princess Changze took his dowry and returned to the King Rui Palace. This morning, Princess Changze also rushed out of the capital.”
Princess Changze and Lin Pei had left the capital together?
Lin Shu sneered, if there was no trick to this, then it would be weird.
With regards to Lin Shu's stepmother from the previous life, Lin Shu still understood her slightly. She was afraid that when the Princess Changze instigated the First Princess Pingning to form this relationship with her, Lin Pei was unaware, as she knew Lin Pei's character. She did not like others to think of him as a fool to scheme against him. the Princess Changze was definitely more clear of Lin Pei's personality.
Now that the Princess Changze had started to scheme about marrying Lin Pei, naturally, he had to make amends to Lin Pei. Now, one was a married man, the other was a woman with a husband. But now, it was the most important time for them.
Lin Shu laughed, it was a pity, but it was a pity that the Princess Changze was too confident in him, she felt that she had control over the entire matter, she did not know that the mantis stalked the cicada was chasing the oriole, she had done so much, and now she had disturbed the Princess Changze's mind, and after that, she only needed to defeat the Princess Changze.
Thinking about that, she whispered a few words into Actinin Qin's ear, causing her expression to change greatly, ”Miss, this … Is that okay? If someone finds out about this, the Grand Madam and the others will find out about it after a thorough investigation, and sooner or later, they will find out about it. ”
”Does Grandmother still place Auntie Zhong and Lin Geer in her heart today? Each of the servant girls acted out of the corner of their eyes. Master did not like them, so the person under them was even more slow. He must have sent a few guards to bring Lin Geer out without anyone knowing. Only then did Lin Shu raise her brush and continue practicing, and she said indifferently: ”As for Princess Changze, it would be fine if she didn't know that I was the one who took Lin Geer away, but if she knew, she would probably be even more worried. Lin Geer's life is like a bomb, if she really rises to the surface, where would her face in the Princess Changze be? ”
Lin Geer's body was weak to begin with, but now that she was locked in the woodshed for a day or two, she became sick. Grand Madam knew that she did not have any intentions of calling a doctor, and just wished that Lin Geer could die.
