Li Bin's father, Lin Shu, the Minister of Civil Service, was kneeling on the ground with a look of disbelief on his face.
Where can I even bother crying?
He never expected that the emperor not only failed to give the second prince face, but also punished him.
Lin Shu was dumbfounded.
The second prince's face didn't look good either.
The emperor demoted his biological mother's status and punished his grandfather. How will he gain a foothold in front of others in the future?
After hearing the emperor's words, Eunuch Liu hurriedly ran out to convey the emperor's will.
Although everyone knew that the emperor deliberately spoke so loudly, Mr. Lin outside the door had already heard it.
However, the procedure still needs to be done.
Eunuch Liu went out and explained the emperor's will again.
Then, for the sake of the second prince, he whispered: "Master Lin, the emperor is furious, you should go back first."
Otherwise, if the trouble continues, the emperor will only punish him more severely.
Your daughter ignored the emperor's will and went against the trend to bully Princess Fudou, which violated the emperor's taboo.
If you do this again, your family will be doomed.
Moreover, the second prince will also be implicated.
It's a pity that because of his relationship with the second prince in recent years, Minister Lin regarded himself as the emperor's father-in-law and the future emperor's grandfather in his heart.
How could you tell that Eunuch Liu was kind?
What's more, if the daughter is demoted, it will directly affect the grandson's claim to the throne.
How could Minister Lin be so willing?
Lin Shilang did not accept the order, he pulled his neck and cried at the door.
"Your Majesty, veteran..."
"Grandpa!" the second prince suddenly shouted.
Lin Shilang's voice faltered and got stuck again.
Then, he looked at the second prince in confusion.
The second prince said without any argument: "Since grandpa came to plead guilty, now that my father has treated me leniently, grandpa should express his gratitude as soon as possible."
Lin Shilang looked at his grandson and opened his mouth.
Is this called leniency?
"Grandpa, thank you!" The second prince emphasized again with a stronger tone.
Minister Lin: "..."
Finally, he knocked on the ground with his hands and shouted: "Old minister, I thank the Lord for your kindness!"
Eunuch Liu glanced at the second prince.
I sighed in my heart: Sure enough, the second prince understands.
The second prince stood up and helped Lin Shilang up.
"Grandpa, please walk slowly," the second prince said.
Lin Shilang nodded, wiped his tears, turned around tremblingly, and took a step forward, still unwilling to give in.
I couldn't help but stopped, looked at the second prince, and whispered: "I am just a little princess, is it possible that she is more valuable than the concubines in the palace? More valuable than the prince? Why is the emperor so protective?"
"Master Lin wants to know why, then I can tell you." Xuanyuan Jin slowly walked out of the imperial study and said coldly.
As soon as Lin Shilang saw Xuanyuan Jin, his expression immediately changed.
Immediately, he looked at Xuanyuan Jin and then at the door of the imperial study room.
He immediately recognized in his heart that Xuanyuan Jin was the one who instigated the emperor to punish him.
Lin Shilang said with a smile: "It turns out that His Highness knew about it and asked His Highness to give me some advice."
"It's easy to say." Xuanyuan Jin said coldly: "Because Princess Fude not only saved the life of the emperor's grandmother, but also saved the life of the emperor's father twice!"
Minister Lin: "..."
His face was full of shock.
Xuanyuan Jin continued: "So, Master Lin still thinks that Princess Fude is just a small princess?"
Minister Lin: "..."
Speechless.
The emperor's savior is the benefactor of the entire world.
Why did my daughter offend Princess Ford?
Master Lin's heart felt so cold.
He suddenly stopped being confused and understood that his daughter's position would not be promoted to the next level.
"It turns out that Princess Ford has such great kindness to our royal family." The second prince said suddenly: "If the third brother hadn't told me, the second brother wouldn't have known about it."
After finishing speaking, he looked at Xuanyuan Jin and said with a sincere face: "Second brother heard that third brother and Princess Fude have a close relationship. Could you please ask third brother to pass the message on my behalf? Second brother wants to thank Princess Fude in person, and
Apologize to Princess Ford on behalf of my mother-in-law..."
"No need, she is young and doesn't take this to heart at all." Xuanyuan Jin said.
His tone towards the second prince was no longer so cold, but it wasn't much better either.
Immediately, his eyes turned to Minister Lin.
"Master Lin, please remember this sentence, trouble comes from your mouth!"
After saying that, he turned around and strode away.
The second prince glanced at Xuanyuan Jin's back, thought for a while, and stopped asking for forgiveness, and walked away quickly.
As soon as Tang Baoan came out of Ci'an Palace, he met Xuanyuan Jin who was rushing over.
"Brother!" Tangbao greeted him happily.
Xuanyuan Jin felt relieved when he saw the little girl intact.
"I didn't follow you for a while, and then I was bullied again!" Xuanyuan Jin said helplessly: "How can anyone trust you with your stupid look?"
Sugar baby: "..."
Is she stupid?
She is not stupid!
"Brother, I heard that Concubine Li has fainted several times." Tang Bao said quietly.
Not even a hair on his head was missing.
Xuanyuan Jin snorted and said, "She deserves it!"
The sugar baby showed a sympathetic expression on his face and said, "Actually, I think she is unlucky and pitiful."
Xuanyuan Jin almost laughed angrily.
"You are stupid and you still don't admit it. She obviously bullied you, but you feel sorry for her." Xuanyuan Jin felt that the sugar baby was hopeless.
After Xuanyuan Jin finished speaking, he asked again: "Tell me, brother, how did she bully you? Did she punish you or scold you?"
Sugar baby: "..."
A troubled expression on his face.
Xuanyuan Jin's heart sank.
"What's wrong? It's more serious than this? Did I hit you?" Xuanyuan Jin asked nervously: "Where was it hit?"
Tangbao quickly said: "Brother, do you think it's possible?"
Can she still be beaten?
God willing?
Xuanyuan Jin: "..."
After thinking about it, I thought it was impossible.
"Brother, actually... I don't know why she bullied me, but she was slapped by Concubine Shu and Concubine?" Tangbao said with an innocent look.
Xuanyuan Jin: "...really stupid."
He didn't even know he was being bullied by others.
It seems that I need to ask someone else.
Xuanyuan Jin looked at Tangbao with the look of a fool, making Tangbao speechless.
The two of them were talking and walking, and then they met the second prince at the entrance of the palace.
The second prince held a box in his hand, as if he was waiting here on purpose.
"Third brother, is this Princess Ford?" As soon as the second prince saw Tang Bao and Xuanyuan Jin, he immediately came up to them and asked with a smile on his face.
Tangbao looked at Xuanyuan Jin.
Xuanyuan Jin frowned slightly and said in a cold tone: "This is my second brother."
Tangbao immediately saluted and said, "I have met His Highness the Second Highness."
"Princess, please forgive me." The second prince said with a grateful face: "Since the princess has saved my father and grandmother, she is my savior. How can I dare to accept the princess's gift?"
After saying that, he handed the box in his hand to the waiter on the side and bowed solemnly to the sugar baby.
"My concubine made inappropriate remarks and angered the princess. I would like to apologize to the princess and hope that the princess will forgive my concubine."
The second prince spoke sincerely, but as a prince, his posture was extremely low.
"Second brother, Lin Meiren is no longer the concubine." Xuanyuan Jin reminded lightly.
