Chapter 955 The Best Family 82
Fortunately, Imperial Concubine Li did this, so she didn't do anything but add fuel to the fire. Plus, her trusted nanny was really good at doing things and nothing she did left any traces. Even if Linlang knew that she had done something, because the other party had cleaned up the mess, Imperial Concubine Li was not found during the emperor's major investigation.

Although the conspiracy was not linked to Concubine Li, it was still very scary. After all, they were lucky this time. If they were not found out, it is possible that they would be found out if they were careless while doing their work. Then they would be doomed.

Don't think that just because Concubine Li didn't deal with Linlang before, she is a good person. Don't think that just because you don't cause trouble for her, she won't cause trouble for Linlang.

When she reached her position and gave birth to a prince, she had to consider the future, so sometimes, in order to keep everything, she would take the initiative to attack others even if others had not attacked her yet. There was nothing she could do about it.

She now felt like she was standing on the edge of a cliff, or walking on a tightrope. If she was not careful, she would be crushed to pieces. But she was already standing on the edge of the cliff, so she had to bite the bullet and continue walking down.

There was no other way. Since she had become a favored concubine, in order to avoid being dealt with in the future, she had to find a way to let her son ascend to the throne. In order to achieve this, she naturally could not let anything affect her goal.

Linlang's increasing favor may obviously affect the realization of her goals.

Because, if Linlang becomes more favored than her, and she gives birth to a child, it would be difficult for her child to become the eldest son.

And she naturally couldn't let this happen, so eliminating Linlang was obviously what she had to do.

Fortunately, Linlang doesn't have a child yet. Although she wants to eliminate Linlang, she is not in a hurry. If Linlang has a child and she is still in favor, she will be really anxious.

Although it is not time yet, it would be a good thing if Linlang could be eliminated. This is why Concubine Li took action.

Although Concubine Li acted secretly and was not caught by Linlang, who sent her to the Emperor for punishment, resulting in her being spared this time, the Emperor's furious investigation still frightened Concubine Li.

In the past, when others caused trouble for her, the emperor would be furious and investigate thoroughly, and she felt very happy. But now that the emperor does this for others, she doesn’t feel happy anymore, she just feels scared.

This is also the reason why, although Concubine Li has not been found out and punished by the emperor, she still feels afraid. The truth is, she cannot withstand any setbacks. Once what she has done is discovered, the emperor will no longer favor her and may even deal with her, banish her to the cold palace, or even sentence her to death. That would be scary. How can she not be afraid when she thinks of such a scene?

Without mentioning the impact of this incident on Concubine Li, Cousin Zhang and others, it was said that after this incident, Linlang's side was completely quiet, which made Linlang feel satisfied.

Of course, this peace and quiet is only temporary. After a while, some people will forget what happened this time and continue to cause trouble.

There is no way, there are always people who only remember to eat and not to be beaten. However, it is good to be able to have some peace and quiet for a while. After all, Linlang does not want to be schemed against every day and then fight back, which is also very tiring. Now that she has some peace and quiet and does not have to do these things, it is naturally the best.

As for the fact that Concubine Li did not take the initiative this time, she was just observing, wanting to see if she was very powerful, and then thinking of ways to deal with her in the future. Linlang did not give up this action just because Concubine Li wanted to observe. After all, it was impossible for her to release so many people to deal with her just because she was worried that what she did would be discovered by Concubine Li.

After all, what if Concubine Li discovered that she had means? If Concubine Li wanted to deal with her in the future, she would just fight back. There was nothing to be afraid of.

After being promoted to Noble Concubine, it is impossible to be promoted to Concubine right away. During this period, when the emperor comes to Linlang again, Linlang will do the same as before, simply to improve the emperor's favorability and occasionally ask the emperor to give some rewards to the first wife.

Because she saw that Master Sun had done a good job in recent years, and Master Sun had basically no problem with literacy, so he could handle heavier responsibilities. And after he was promoted to the seventh rank, his rank had not been moved for a long time, so she asked the emperor to move Master Sun's position again and promote him to the sixth rank.

The people in the first house were naturally happy about this news, but it was obviously painful for the people in the second house. After all, Master Sun Er was still in the seventh rank, while Master Sun Da had actually climbed to the sixth rank, which was a higher official position than Master Sun Er. How could the second house not be painful?

Fortunately, Master Sun Er had painted a rosy picture for the old couple, saying that Master Sun Da was promoted because of Linlang, and that such an official position could not be promoted too high, otherwise, the old couple would probably complain again now.

In fact, in the original world, after spending money and doing activities everywhere, Master Sun Er should have been promoted to the sixth rank or even the sixth rank. After all, not long after the original family returned to their hometown, they heard the news of Master Sun Er's promotion.

Since he was promoted, let alone the sixth rank, at least he was promoted to the sixth rank.

But in this world, because Master Sun Er always wanted to suppress the first wife, all his money was spent on opposing the first wife, and no money was spent on seeking official positions. In addition, although Master Sun Er was a good student, he might not have the ability to be an official, so his official position has not moved, and he is still at the seventh rank. As a result, seeing that the first wife has climbed to a higher official position than him, how can he not be painful?

In fact, Master Sun Er is mentally prepared for the possibility that Master Sun's official position may become higher. After all, Linlang's position has been rising, which means that Linlang is becoming more and more favored. In this case, more rewards will be given to the first house at any time. Either Master Sun's official position will be promoted, or Master Sun's sons will be promoted. Someone will definitely be promoted.

He originally thought that it would be Master Sun's sons who would be promoted. After all, Master Sun was already a seventh-rank official, and it would be a bit difficult for him to be promoted further. On the contrary, Master Sun's sons were only ninth-rank officials and had room for promotion. In that case, it would not have much impact on him.

Unexpectedly, it was Master Sun's official position that was promoted. He was already at the seventh rank, but he could be promoted to the sixth rank, which became higher than his official position. This obviously had an impact on him. After all, if this kind of thing spread to his hometown, others would see that he was not doing as well as the first wife, and they would definitely laugh at him, laughing at him for being a Jinshi but not as well off as Master Sun, a peasant.

Although he no longer lives in his hometown, his hometown is his roots. People like them who have become rich must return to their hometown to worship their ancestors and will definitely meet those people at that time. When he thought about how those people would laugh at him, Master Sun Er became furious and became more determined to suppress the first wife. After all, if he allowed the first wife to continue to develop, he would be laughed at more and more in the future.

——Master Sun Er doesn't want to make progress himself, but only wants to suppress others. It is conceivable that he will only go further and further on the wrong path.
