Yusui Chang'an

Chapter 1173: Seeing Through Fire
The emperor arranged his son's marriage in a gentle and loving tone. Without giving Lin Yanqing any chance to refuse, he discussed the funeral arrangements. After finishing the government affairs, he asked Zheng Cheng to send the three people away on the pretext of reviewing memorials.

After coming out of the imperial study, the three members of the Lin family had different expressions on their faces as they walked out of the palace.

Lin Yanqing's face was filled with sorrow. He didn't want to have anything to do with the royal family, especially at this time when the party struggles were becoming increasingly fierce.

Lin Siran was secretly delighted with disbelief, and looked back from time to time to make sure that the dream was real.

Lin Jinan secretly looked at the two people beside him, with a hidden joy between his brows that the task was accomplished.

After leaving the palace and getting on the carriage, Lin Yanqing was furious to see Lin Siran immersed in the fantasy of his daughter becoming a princess. He scolded Lin Siran for only caring about interests and future, and not having the slightest fatherly heart.

Lin Siran lowered his head submissively, but he didn't agree in his heart:

Given Wanrong's background, being able to marry into the royal family was already a great blessing, so naturally he had to agree.

After scolding his disappointing son, Lin Yanqing took advantage of his anger to complain to An Zhixian for the first time:
"Zhixian is a kid who usually does things very carefully, but he is so slow this time."

Two days before An Zhixian left Beijing, he told Lin Yanqing that now that he knew An Zhixian was not in Tai'an, he could not see him and had no place to vent his resentment, so he became even more angry and worried:

"After all, it was me who originally proposed this matter. If I don't find a way to refuse Your Majesty, how can I see Zhixian in the future?"

Lin Jinan: "Grandfather, everything in the world has its own destiny. Maybe Brother An and Sister are just not destined to be together? My grandson and His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi have known each other since they were young. We are close friends and I know him a little bit.

Although he was born in the royal family, he was kind, simple and approachable. He was tired of fame and fortune, and yearned for the world. He was an open-minded gentleman with a chivalrous heart, and worthy of entrusting one's life to. "After praising Chu Chengping, Lin Jinan also explained the unquestionable nature of the emperor's words:

"Besides, although His Majesty's tone was gentle just now, the meaning behind his words was clear. In order to show his sincerity and his appreciation for you, His Majesty called you and Second Uncle to ask questions in private.

If an imperial decree comes down, how can our Lin family resist the imperial order?"

Lin Siran hurriedly agreed, but Lin Yanqing glared at him and Lin Siran immediately shut up.

Although Lin Yanqing also liked Chu Chengping, how could the royal family be so easy to get along with? Not to mention the distant past, let's take the Jin Wang Chu Chengyao for example. He looked like a gentle and humble gentleman, but he was actually a shameless person with a golden and jade appearance.

Furthermore, his close friend, Grand Tutor Yao, is a living example. Yao Huining, such an outstanding child, was almost tortured to death and lost his life. Wanrong is as timid and weak as a lamb. How could she be good if she married into the royal family?
No, no, Wanrong was a child with a miserable life. Although her birth was not what he expected, she had been filial to him for many years and he loved her sincerely. He could not let this granddaughter lose her life innocently.

Since the Lin family cannot refuse, then they will find a way from King Qi!
Thinking of this, Lin Yanqing impatiently drove Lin Siran out of the car and told the driver Xu Da: Turn the car around and go to Pingyang Marquis Mansion.

Lin Jinan neither stopped nor persuaded, but followed suit, with no surprise on his face and a hint of pride in his eyes:

Yan'er was really insightful and had already figured out everything about his grandfather.

When Feng Sinian heard that Lin Yanqing and Lin Jinan were visiting, he raised his eyebrows and smiled:
"The Grand Tutor really came as she expected?"

Instructing his confidant to deliver the message to Prince Qi's mansion, Feng Sinian straightened his clothes and walked forward to greet him.
