CH 42.1

Wang San flattered actively and courteously, "General Wei really has a deep affection for Young master Jiang, which is touching."

Jiang Lin glanced at him, "You’re good at learning idioms."

Wang San laughed twice, "That's right, this is at the feet of the emperor, and there are scholars everywhere , We beggars can’t lose face the beggars in Shengjing, right?”

Wang San was quite curious about Fang Ba, he felt that he had known Fang Ba for so long, but he didn’t know as much as Jiang Lin, who only met him for the first time. Wang San walked beside Jiang Lin, and asked Jiang Lin with a smile, "Mr. Jiang, you said there are people behind Fang Ba, are they officials from Shengjing?"

Wang San sighed, "Fang Ba is really capable, A ruffian can still find the support of an official, not useless like us, who can't even eat enough."

Jiang Lin stopped, looked at Wang San carefully, with a suspicious expression on his face, he said: "Wang San , do you think I believe this?"

"Ah?" Wang San scratched his head, "Why don't you believe it?" He looked puzzled.

Jiang Lin smiled, "There are tens of thousands of people in this world, but most of them are ordinary. Those who can really take power or be a leader have their own merits."

Jiang Lin nodded his head, "Either they are smart, or they can reincarnate, you see, do you look like that?"

Wang San felt that he was not one of them.

He didn't admit it, and Jiang Lin didn't say much, he just let Wang San stare at Fang Ba's group of people, "Don't let them leave Shengjing, if they have this intention, go to Wei's mansion to find me," Jiang Lin give Wang San a piece of silver again.

Wang San happily gnawed a tooth mark on the silver ingot, and then asked: "Young master Jiang, the man on the roof is here to kill Fang Ba, could he still live?"

"Yes," Jiang Lin answered emphatically and certainly, if a person like Fang Ba had no escape skills, he wouldn't be able to make it into what he was now.

Wang San immediately sent his two beggar followers back to call for help, while Wang San sent Jiang Lin to the gate of Wei Mansion.

When he left, he looked back at the gate of Wei's mansion, and there was an unexplainable emotion in his eyes, but no one noticed.

When Jiang Lin returned home, Wei Yunzhao hadn't come back yet, but there were guests at home, Zhou Chengwang and Du Yuling.

The housekeeper knew that these two were Jiang Lin's friends, so he invited them in to sit in the front hall.

Zhou Chengwang and the two came to deliver news to Jiang Lin. This time it was very important. As soon as Jiang Lin entered the door, he was pulled into a chair by the two of them. Zhou Chengwang looked serious, "Lin'er, you are in trouble again."

Du Yuling pushed him down, "Don't talk nonsense," and said to Jiang Lin, "It's not you, it's the Wei family."

Jiang Lin was very confused, "The Wei family is already like this, and they still want to make trouble with the wei family. Do they still want to dig the Wei family's ancestral grave?"

"You know about the selection of the concubine for the crown prince, right?" Zhou Chengwang asked.

Jiang Lin nodded, "I know, but what does this have to do with the Wei family?"

Du Yuling took over the words, "There are some news from the palace that the crown prince not only going to choose a crown princess, but also side concubines and concubines. From official rank five, all unmarried women who have reached the age of thirteen must participate in the election."

"Also, not only the prince, but the emperor also wants to choose some new concubines to enrich the harem," Zhou Chengwang pushed Du Yuling aside and added positively.

"Actually, the main purpose is to choose some concubines for the emperor. The crown princess and concubines for the crown prince are all incidental."

Jiang Lin: "..." Still want to add some, isn't he afraid kidney problem?

He cursed in his heart, thirteen years old, old bastard, he wouldn't let go of even children, he should be dead.

Du Yuling was worried, "There are two girls in your Wei family who are already the right age."

If other people were okay, but it was the crown prince, and there was a grudge between the two sides, he was afraid that the crown prince would deliberately choose a girl from the Wei family, and then tossed the other.

Also Wei Yunwan and Wei Yunjia were both pretty good looking, even if there was no enmity, judging from their appearance alone, there was a high possibility of being chosen by the pervert. 

Jiang Lin asked the two of them to sit down, "Where did the news come from, and how did you get it?"

He knew that Zhou Chengwang’s father was a favorite, and the news was always well-informed, "It’s said that it was proposed by the empress. I asked my father for the emperor’s opinion, and he sounded very moved."

Jiang Lin was curious, "Isn't he want to be a Mingjun? When he is old, he still chooses a little girl to enter the palace, is he not afraid of dying in bed one day? And if there is something like this. The ministers should all object, because this age is too young." A person who wanted to be Mingjun couldn't even be criticized for the affairs of the harem.

[明 君 mingjun: wise ruler]

Zhou Chengwang looked around vigilantly, and lowered his voice, "It’s said that the emperor has two thirteen years old girls in the past few days, and he thinks the taste is just right, so he is tempted."

Damn old beast!

Jiang Lin's disgust clearly showed on his face.

Du Yuling was also not happy. His family also had a younger sister who was thirteen years old, too young.

If the age was set at fifteen, it would not make people so dissatisfied.

"I always think this matter is not simple," Zhou Chengwang smacked his lips, "

It's not uncommon for the emperor to copulate with the palace maid, but I've never heard that their age is so young, there are still two of them, and it made the emperor feel good, how could it be such a coincidence. "

Jiang Lin and Du Yuling looked at each other, knowing that Zhou Chengwang had hit the mark.

Du Yuling asked Jiang Lin: "Although the imperial decree has not been issued yet, but the emperor already asked what the courtiers mean, how do you plan to deal with it?"

Zhou Chengwang nodded, "Yes, yes, it's fine to choose a girl from any family, but if it’s from the Wei family, they will definitely suffer. "

Zhou Chengwang looked around as he spoke, "

"What about your family, don't you usually stick together like a rascal, why don't I see anyone today?"

Jiang Lin rolled his eyes, "What is a rascal, if you don't know how to describe it, don't talk too much. "

Du Yuling showed his knowledge at this moment, and corrected: "That's called like glue."

Jiang Lin: "..." It still feels weird.

"Since the imperial edict hasn't been issued yet, so let the imperial edict can’t be issued." Jiang Lin turned back to the topic.

"What happened?" Du Yuling asked.

Zhou Chengwang also looked at him curiously.
