Chapter 21

Lin Xiyu's eyes fell on Lin Jinhua, and everyone also looked at her.

Everything in the palace is untouchable, especially the longevity carp raised by Concubine De in the name of offering longevity to the emperor.

"The courtier saw that the seventh sister seemed to have been to the koi pond, and her sleeves were still wet..." Lin Xiyu said timidly, as if she couldn't bear to betray her sister.

Concubine De immediately looked at Lin Jinhua's cuff, and it was really wet, her face was slightly dark: "Miss Seven, is it because I offended you by going to the Lin Mansion yesterday to invite you into the palace in person, and you are going to kill Ben today?" The concubine's longevity carp? Or, you simply want to curse the emperor, is your Lin family going to rebel!"

With the hat of rebellion off, everyone held their breaths and dared not speak, only Lin Xiyu was a little proud.

Lin Jinhua lowered her eyes and saluted: "I don't dare to have a second thought, and I have never left the imperial garden, please be careful." She looked at the wetness of her cuffs, and remembered that when Lin Xiyu was anxiously grabbing her arm, the cuffs were wet , Could it be that she killed the longevity carp?
"You're talking nonsense, you obviously went to look for Zisu..." Lin Xiyu shouted in a panic.

Lin Jinhua looked at her indifferently, and said innocently, "Eldest sister believed that the koi was killed by my younger sister? After my elder sister left, my younger sister went directly to talk to Mrs. Xiong, and then came here and never left."

Mrs. Xiong also nodded at this moment. Although she didn't dare to say more, it could at least prove that what Lin Jinhua said was true.

Lin Xiyu secretly clenched her palms, looked up at Concubine De's dark and serious face, her body trembling slightly: "Mother, if Seventh Sister has never been there, then I don't know..."

"Bastard!" Concubine De turned her head and glared at her angrily: "You ran to my concubine and said that you saw Lin Jinzheng kill my concubine's koi, but now you say you don't know? You Lin family is going to partner up to embarrass this concubine? ?”

Lin Xiyu's legs softened after being reprimanded, and immediately knelt down and said with a pale face: "Mother, you are really not a courtier..."

Before she finished speaking, she saw a court lady rushing in, and then whispered something in Concubine De's ear, Concubine De's complexion became even uglier, and she looked at Lin Jinhua with even more dissatisfaction.

Just when Lin Jinhua was surprised by her eyes, the eunuchs had already shouted the imperial decree.

Even though Concubine De was not angry, she had no choice but to turn around and accept the order.

"By God's blessing, the emperor ordered that the seven daughters of the Lin family, who are virtuous and gentle, respectful and filial, are specially bestowed as Concubine Ning. Since Lin Jinzheng is in the period of filial piety, she will get married after the one-year filial piety period expires. This is my honor!"

As soon as the father-in-law's voice fell, everyone was stunned.

Lin Xiyu didn't believe it even more, and hurriedly said: "Eunuch, did the emperor refer to the wrong person? Seventh younger sister is only fourteen this year, and she is not the one who wants to marry!"

All of her jealous thoughts were revealed at once, and the ladies and wives who watched were frowning.

The father-in-law has also seen the world, so he glanced at her lightly, and smiled at Lin Jinhua: "Miss Lin is very lucky, please accept the order."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Feeling the hot eyes suddenly gathered on her body, Lin Jinhua blinked, and stepped forward to accept the imperial edict.

Concubine De took a deep breath, and said indifferently: "Since the emperor bestowed the marriage, and it's here in this palace, it's okay for me to say anything, come here, bring me the pair of top-quality pearls ..."

Before she finished speaking, another person came in, from the queen's palace.

"The empress bestowed a pair of Ruyi jade, two Dendrobium pearls, ten brocade embroidery, and a pair of Ruyi bracelets..."

The maid from the Queen's Palace read the pamphlet for a while, and then said with a friendly smile: "The Empress is not feeling well these few days, it's not good to see Miss Lin, so as not to get angry with you, and wait for the Queen to recover from her illness later." , Said that I must take you to the palace to talk and relieve boredom."

The queen wants her to accompany her to relieve boredom, isn't that just valuing her.

Mrs. Dingnanhou, who was still half-scorned just now, suddenly panicked. She just said such a thing. Will this queen-to-be hold grudges in the future?

After thinking about it, he stepped forward and said with a smile: "If Miss Lin is free, she will also go to Dingnanhou's Mansion to sit. The Hou's Mansion has planted a lot of cherry blossoms sent from Fanguo. , but the most beautiful."

Concubine De laughed lightly: "Madam Hou is a rare kind of intimacy."

Marquis Ding Nan is considered to be related to Concubine De's natal family, but now he is going to court the Queen, doesn't he not take Concubine De seriously.Her complexion turned pale, and she didn't know what to say, but she saw Lin Jinhua smile slightly: "Mrs. Hou is polite. When Madam Hou finds out about the joy of having a baby, Jinhua will definitely come to congratulate her."

Mrs. Dingnan Hou saw that she was still talking about this, but she also had a thought in her heart. Could it be that she is really a miraculous doctor who can tell if she looks at her face?
Concubine De saw that Lin Jinhua, who was the most unpopular at first, had become a favorite at the moment, and her nails that were just manicured today were almost pinched to the palm of her hand, so she gritted her teeth and said with a stiff face: "It's getting late, This palace is also tired, you all go back."

Seeing Concubine De's dissatisfaction with Lin Jinhua, Lin Xiyu's eyes flashed, and said: "Madam, since Jinhua is going to be a princess, she doesn't know much about the rules. You are generous and kind, why don't you choose a nurturing aunt to teach at your house. "

What she said was in line with Concubine De's wishes. She originally wanted Lin Jinhua to help her Kan'er with the Lin family, but now she fell into someone else's hands in front of her, and the queen wanted to step on her in front of everyone. Why is she willing?

"Your elder sister loves my younger sister, that's all, since you also opened your mouth, I will choose the ones to send to you tomorrow." Concubine De's round chin slightly lifted, and the corners of her wrinkled eyes became charming and pretty, no wonder The emperor still loves it.

Lin Jinhua knew that if she refused in front of everyone, she would be completely offended, so she agreed, "That's it, I'll trouble your mother. It's just..." She smiled, and looked at Lin Xiyu with bright eyes: "Sister, before It is said that something happened to Zisu's sister, why don't sister also ask Defei Empress to help her and find Zisu's sister."

After she said this, everyone realized that they had indeed not seen the celestial-looking fourth lady of the Lin family.

There were many princes and sons at the banquet today, and she, a lady of the family, disappeared for no reason. If she did such a mediocre thing, Concubine De would really lose her face.

Mrs. Xiong quietly looked at Lin Jinhua, seeing her innocent eyes, as if she was really just worried, and felt that this girl was unfathomable.Seeing Concubine De's face getting more and more embarrassing, she came forward and said: "Perhaps she is playful, and she sprained her ankle before, maybe where to rest now."

Concubine De gritted her teeth secretly, glanced at Lin Xiyu coldly, and raised her hand a little impatiently: "Stay back, Mrs. Xiong stays with me to talk." Mrs. Xiong is considered her natal family, and Concubine De only gets closer to her .

Seeing that it was Mrs. Xiong, Lin Jinhua breathed a sigh of relief, and lowered her eyes.

A group of people walked to the gate of the palace before taking their leave, but Lin Xiyu had a fit right away.

"Seventh Sister is really eloquent today!"

Lin Jinhua looked at her with a slight smile: "Big sister made a mistake today, do you still want to resist by yourself?"

"What do you mean……"

"My sister's cuff is also wet, and there is a fish scale on the inside." Lin Jinhua had seen it early on. Although the fish scale was small, it glistened in the sun.

Lin Xiyu's face turned pale, and she felt her whole body go numb: "You...you're talking nonsense..."

"Are you talking nonsense, big sister knows that. But you have never entered the palace, so how do you know there are koi there?" Lin Jinhua raised her eyebrows slightly, hitting the point.However, Lin Xiyu lowered her eyes and gritted her teeth in hatred. Lin Zisu told her all this, so she went to kill the koi to frame Lin Jinhua.But how did she know that the koi was such an important long-lived carp?But Lin Zisu is different, she often contacts the nobles in the palace, she must know.

"is her……"

Seeing that she wanted to understand, Lin Jinhua didn't say much. She turned her head and got into the carriage to leave, but she saw Mrs. Dingnanhou walking over with a smile on her face.

"Miss Seven, are you free tomorrow? The palace has rewarded a lot of melons and fruits from the Western Regions. I can't eat them all by myself. Why don't you come and taste them?"

"I'm afraid I'm going to disturb Madam." Lin Jinhua said with a slight smile, bending her eyes.

"If not, I'll send someone to pick you up tomorrow." Madam Dingnan saw that she agreed generously, but all the entanglements in her heart were washed away at once, and she felt very comfortable.

Lin Jinhua watched her leave with a smile, her gaze slowly deepened.Although Marquis Dingnan is related to Concubine De, he did help Zhao Kan in his previous life, but he is very proud and conceited, not greedy for money but lustful, and having nothing to do for many years is also a heart problem. One arm of Zhao Kan was broken.

"What is Seventh Sister laughing at?"

Lin Zisu suddenly came from behind.

Lin Jinhua turned to look at her, her face was slightly red, her red lips were slightly swollen, and her almond eyes were slightly rippling, moist and shiny, and she immediately understood what had happened.

"Is that the father-in-law next to the third prince?" Lin Jinhua saw the eunuch who had just turned back and smiled slightly.

Lin Zisu's expression panicked, but she hurriedly covered her lips and smiled, "Seventh Younger Sister entered the palace for the first time, so she recognizes so many people? That father-in-law just happened to meet, I don't know who it is."

Lin Jinhua smiled knowingly, but did not expose it.

Lin Xiyu walked over angrily and bumped into Lin Zisu hard. Seeing that her face became more and more beautiful, she snorted coldly: "Fourth sister, don't you know? Seventh sister was married as Princess Ning just now? You look like that Mei, I don't know what kind of family you will marry in the future, you have to cherish your reputation, if it is bad, even if you look like a fairy, you can only marry a peddler in his seventies and eighties!"

Lin Zisu's face turned embarrassing, but she would not be so stupid as to do anything in front of the palace gate, she only secretly harbored cruel intentions.

Just as they were about to go back, someone from Lin's residence urgently reported that Lin Jinhua's brother had died in battle!
