Since young, Lin Pei had never spoken to Grand Madam in such a tone.

Grand Madam wanted to smash the tea Gu on the table again, but the table was empty. She slammed his hand on the table, "You dare to shout at me now? If she really has the ability, then after taking care of all the matters outside, he can go against me. On the other hand, Madam Lian doesn't need to worry, even if it is for his own sake, she doesn't dare say anything. When was Princess Changze pregnant? What should the child do? Was it true when Sister Shu said that she was going to marry the empress dowager's nephew? "

Lin Pei knew that his tone was too harsh, but he nodded his head and did not say a word.

"What the hell is going on? Why did the Sister Shu know that the Princess Changze was pregnant? Also, hadn't Princess Changze always been favoured by the empress dowager? "If she cries and wails in front of Esteemed Empress Dowager, doesn't she have to follow everything she does?" The Grand Madam has completely fallen on the side of the Princess Changze. Now that I have awoken from my dream, I am naturally anxious, "Also, what exactly are you planning to do now? There must be a constitution! "

Lin Pei slowly shook his head, and said in a low voice, "I … I also don't know, but today, I spent a lot of energy to ask around the palace and found out that the nobles there knew that the child in the Princess Changze was Wang Pei's child, and even the Emperor knows about it. "

The emperor knows about this, but didn't say anything. He directly said that the Old Prince Rui and the empress dowager spoiled the Princess Changze, and that Wang Pei is only a sixth rank official now, and that his identity isn't worthy of the emperor. From the looks of it, the emperor intends to promote Wang Pei to an official, but when I went to the imperial court today, the emperor's expression wasn't too good.

This meant that the marriage was completely settled.

"But will Wang Pei recognize this child? Who would be willing to raise a child for someone else! " Grand Madam felt panic in his heart, afraid that the matter would be exposed and he would be implicated in Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion. "Princess Changze should still be unconscious right now, what if I were to wait for Princess Changze to wake up and tell me the truth? The empress dowager and the emperor were both so angry when they thought the child in the Princess Changze was Wang Pei's. If they knew this child was yours, then … She didn't even dare to think about it anymore.

Lin Pei muttered to himself for a moment before replying softly, "The Princess Changze shouldn't say anything. She's a smart person. He knows that the emperor and the empress dowager are angry, so how could he dare to add fuel to the fire? Furthermore, she had really said it, how could the matter of the Madam Lian be hidden? When First Prince left the palace, he accidentally trampled a person to death. First Prince knelt outside the imperial study room for several days, but was still unable to quell the Emperor's anger, so the Emperor decided to ignore the First Prince until today. Don't talk about a mere Princess Changze, you can be at ease with this matter. "

The Grand Madam's expression became slightly better, "Even though you said it like that, but I can't help but notice that Princess Changze seems to have lost control of himself, on her side, you still have to pacify her. If there really was a Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion involved, then we would be done for, last year's big brother's appraisal ended up with great difficulty, seeing that there is hope for the promotion …"

Since he was young, Lin Pei had heard it too loud. He had long been used to it, but now, he was holding back a ball of fire in his heart as he frowned and said: "I understand."

He had never held the position of an official and the two brothers were alone together. But now that Lin Pei already had the Third Rank, and saw that there was such a possibility of entering the pavilion, logically speaking, Zhong Hou would retire now to avoid offending him. Zhong Hou had even mentioned this to him several times, but it was a pity that Grand Madam did not seem to understand.

It was said that the Emperor loved his eldest son and the citizens so much, but Lin Pei, this little son, was never someone that the Grand Madam liked.

He only felt that his youngest son had done something wrong on this matter, and had to do more to make up for his loss of Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion. "Before, I heard someone say that the Ministry of Rites was empty, so you should also walk around for your elder brother, begging him to give the Minister of Rites a few more sentences as well …"

"Then have you ever thought that even if Big Bro really did take up that 'Deficit' of the Ministry of Rites, what happens in the future?" Lin Pei's patience had reached its limit, as he could not help but interrupt Grand Madam's words, "Big brother is already past thirty, but he is still only at the sixth rank.

"Elder Jiangge said that he planned to bring me into the pavilion in the future. After I enter the pavilion, Big Brother will definitely avoid suspicion. At that time, can you tell me that you don't want me to enter the pavilion anymore so that Big Brother can have a seat?"

Grand Madam opened his eyes wide, "What are you saying? When you enter the Pavilion, it will be unavoidable for your big brother to avoid suspicion, but today, you haven't even entered the Pavilion, and in the decades that I have lived, I have never heard of anyone who entered the Pavilion before the age of thirty. Just like the Elder Jiangge, he entered the Pavilion after the age of forty. "I was just thinking that since your big brother's position is too high, I can at least help you out a bit …"

Lin Pei only sneered, and said after a long while: "I understand."

This cold laughter caused Grand Madam to feel extremely uncomfortable. He raised his voice and said: "Stand still, you have always been this indifferent to me, even normally speaking, you would be extremely unwilling to come to the Green Pine Academy to greet me. Have I, this old woman, ever offended you, Sir Assistant Minister? Today, we might as well explain everything clearly! "

Lin Pei turned around, and said indifferently: "It's getting late, you should rest early! Since young, I have watched how you treat me, big brother, and second brother. If it wasn't for the fact that we don't have a concubine in our family, I would have thought that I was born of a concubine. "

He still couldn't forget that at the age of six, he had entered the White Horse Institute and became the youngest student there. Anyone who saw him wouldn't praise his talent and talent, and instead focus on studying hard, and even their father would want to tie him to his belt when he went out to socialize so that he could show off everywhere.

However, his mother was still indifferent to him, and his daily thoughts were still on his eldest brother and second brother. At that time, he only felt that he was not outstanding enough.

The County Prince was mediocre since he was young, while the Second Master loved to cause trouble. The Lady must have placed all her thoughts on them, waiting for you to receive Mister's praise at the White Horse Institute, so the Madam will definitely be happier than anyone else.

At the time he believed it.

Waiting for his leave to return from the White Horse Institute, he held Mister's annotated lessons in his hands, in which everything went smoothly for him. It was just that at that time, Second Brother was sick, and his mother received him into the Green Pine Academy, so after hearing his words, she only replied indifferently. Then, she turned around and fed Second Brother medicine again, with a caring look and a loving smile, this was something he had never experienced before.

At that time, when he went back, he tore off his lessons and secretly made up his mind that one day, he would emerge victorious and trample both his eldest brother and second brother beneath his feet.

After all, they were blood brothers, and they had to help each other in the future. However, ever since he was young, his mother's alienation was a thorn in his heart, so he did not want to ask, nor did he want to ask.

Grand Madam watched's figure disappear into the night, but his tears still dripped down.

She didn't want to be estranged from her son since a young age, but when she saw Lin Pei, she would always think of her other child who had died prematurely, and her heart felt extremely uncomfortable. She wasn't Lin Pei's mother by herself …

Not long after Lin Pei returned to the house, news of his return reached Lin Shu's ears. She nodded and instructed the peonies, "For the next few days, all of you have to be even more careful. I think that mother will wake up tomorrow, and nothing can go wrong."

She was afraid that Lin Pei would do something to the Madam Lian.

Peony nodded.

Not long after, Actinin Qin came in and said softly, "Miss, someone from Tzu Ning Palace came. She said that she wanted to bring back all the things you left in the Tzu Ning Palace. The empress dowager even brought you some boxes of snacks, and a few pieces of ingredients."

He knew that the Madam Lian was severely ill, and the ones that did not know thought that Lin Shu had lost her favor in front of the Empress Dowager Wang. It was a public and private matter, and even the Empress Dowager Wang had to give him some things.

Lin Shu stood up, "Then I'll go to the front."

When she reached the Fanghua Garden, she never expected that Man Jing would come. Man Jing smiled faintly and said softly: "Fourth Miss, how have you been?!"

The smile on her face was the same no matter what the situation was. There was no change at all. Such a person was truly terrifying.

Lin Shu suddenly thought of the time when she proposed the method to kill the Princess Changze's child, and Man Jing still had that faint smile on her face, as though she did not hesitate at all. In the next moment, she agreed, with such courage, not everyone could, "I didn't expect that I would have to trouble Sister Man Jing to personally make this trip."

Man Jing said: "Why bother saying that? With Senior Servant Pi by Esteemed Empress Dowager's side, I just passed on Grand Madam's words to Esteemed Empress Dowager. Esteemed Empress Dowager also understands that Fourth Miss is a smart and sensible woman, so she agreed and wanted me to personally leave the palace to give her some pointers. "

After Actinin Qin heard this, she immediately brought the servants and wives down.

Lin Shu then said, "What does the empress dowager want Big Sister Man Jing to say to me?" In fact, she could vaguely guess that Man Jing was the most capable palace maid by Empress Dowager Wang's side. The reason Empress Dowager Wang sent him out was definitely because of Princess Changze.
