Lin Furen persuaded Lin Xiang to be close to Lin Chujiu, of course not for Lin Chujiu’s sake, but because she wanted to use this as a warning to the empress!

Lin Furen heard a rumor that the empress wanted to take Lin Wanting as her righteous daughter and marry her off to the Western Prince, Ji Fengyu.

This was something that Lin Furen cannot accept. Even if Lin Wanting can become the empress of the West after marrying Ji Fengyu, Lin Furen cannot accept it.

The empress promised her that she would marry her to the Crown Prince. In the future, her daughter will definitely become the empress of the East, so why should she take a risk in marrying to the west? When the east and west had a war in the future, her daughter will be abandoned.

So at this time, Lin Furen advised Lin Xiang to get close to Lin Chujiu, that is to remind the empress that their Lin Family cannot only support the Crown Prince. If the Crown Prince didn’t marry Lin Wanting, their Lin family can stand on the opposite side of them.

Lin Xiang didn’t know the twists and turns in Lin Furen’s heart, so when he heard his suggestion and pondered for a while, he found it feasible.

Xiao Tianyao was not in the capital. If he catches Lin Chujiu’s heart and makes Lin Chujiu hate Xiao Tianyao and form a gap between them, everything will turn in a good direction.

But……

Thinking of the emperor, who already planned everything, Lin Xiang’s heart became timid.

If the emperor thinks that he was supporting Xiao Wangye, he will definitely be miserable.

Other ministers can give support to Xiao Wangye, but he can’t. He is Xiao Wangye’s father-in-law. If he is too obvious about giving him support, the emperor will be suspicious.

Lin Xiang sighed and helplessly said: “This matter will be discussed later.”

The more he thought of it, the more he felt that it’s a big mistake to marry off Lin Chujiu to Xiao Tianyao.

However, no one knows at the time that Xiao Tianyao’s legs will be cured!

Lin Xiang also didn’t know that at this time, his daughter, Lin Chujiu has changed into plain clothes and went to the palace to find the emperor and cry.

Usually, as a female member of the imperial family, Lin Chujiu should have look for the empress. But Lin Chujiu bypassed the empress and directly went to the emperor… …

This was simply to slapped the empress’s face, but everyone knows why Lin Chujiu did this!

“Huangshang, this wangfei is asking his highness to seek justice for me.” Lin Chujiu, who entered the palace, knelt and cried in grievances.

The emperor was annoyed when he saw Lin Chujiu, so he rudely asked: “What the hell are you crying for?”

“Huangshang, this wangfei felt wronged for wangye. I can’t help it.” Lin Chujiu’s tears seemed like had a switch, when the emperor told her to stop crying, only few tear marks showed on her face.

“Wronged? Who dares to wrong you and Tianyao?” When the emperor heard of it, he guessed what was happening, and so his eyes flashed with coldness.

Xiao Tianyao was not there, but Xiao Wangfu was still well informed with the news?

“Huangshang, it’s not this wangfei who’s wronged, it’s wangye. I felt wronged for wangye… …” Lin Chujiu choked and said: “This wangfei heard that Zhu Daren tried to impeached wangye for secretly entering the capital, I felt like I was struck by lightning. Huangshang, wangye is being falsely accused. It was not wangye who worshipped grandmother three days ago, it was the guards of Xiao Wangfu. Huangshang, this wangfei ask the emperor to investigate this matter.”

Sure enough, she came for this matter.

When the emperor heard Lin Chujiu’s words, he didn’t actually get angry.

He guessed that this matter will not go smoothly.

When Lin Chujiu saw the emperor not opening his mouth and she continued: “Huangshang, Zhu Daren falsely accusing wangye is simply a crime. This wangfei can’t understand what Zhu Daren is thinking, he’s pouring dirty water on wangye’s head.”

What Lin Chujiu said makes sense, but in the end, she still didn’t forget to add: “Huangshang, this wangfei not only felt wronged for wangye, but also for the soldiers who marched out with him.”
