Datang: I am so happy to marry a disfigured princess!

Chapter 19 My sister-in-law speaks out for justice, why should Changsun Chong be aggressive!

After hearing this, both women were in a bad mood, and Li Ningxi couldn't help but frown.

"A few days ago, Lin Langjun presented the curved shaft plow he developed to his father. This product can greatly reduce the burden of farming on the people, and can also cultivate the land more precisely, increasing the yield of the fields."

"My father was overjoyed when he learned about this and conferred the title of Prince of Ruyang County on Mr. Lin Lang. You keep saying that men seek fame, but why did you only take advantage of the fame of your fathers and become the sixth-grade Cheng Yilang?"

"In my opinion, Lin Langjun's move is to benefit the people of the world, and he is definitely not talking about the incompetence that others say."

Li Ningxi finished speaking angrily and snorted.

Lin Heng couldn't help but smile when he saw this.

It feels really good that my daughter-in-law is standing up for me.

Lin Heng then shook his head and said softly: "It's just a mere craftsmanship that cannot be put on the table. It just changes the way people farm and benefits the people."

Seeing Lin Heng's "modest" expression, Changsun Chong felt even more anger in his heart, but had nowhere to vent it.

Li Lizhi looked at Lin Heng angrily and said, "Why do you have to be so humble? I think the reward from my father is still too small, but it is only better than some people who only use their fathers to show off. Be nice!”

His wife had gone to speak to others, which made Changsun Chong feel very aggrieved.

Seeing that Li Lizhi was already so angry, Changsun Chong knew that if he continued like this, he would definitely lose face, so he quickly changed the subject.

He looked around the room with his eyes, then naturally fell on the perfume bottles, and then chuckled.

"Brother Lin, I see that you have good literary talent and must be a scholar. There will be a poetry meeting at Feng Lai Tower in Chang'an City in a few days. Famous talents from Chang'an will be here. I wonder if you are interested?"

Fenglai Tower is one of the most famous flower towers in Chang'an. Without exception, those who can enter the tower are wealthy dignitaries and children of aristocratic families. Even some high-ranking officials from the court will occasionally visit, so it is particularly famous.

Especially the poetry gatherings that would be held every once in a while, where countless literati would write poems and poems for beauties. Every time a poem was heard, it would shock the city of Chang'an.

Since ancient times, the poems of literati and poets have been most sought after by wealthy families, royal families and dignitaries.

Hearing this, Lin Heng couldn't help but laugh.

In the past few days in Chang'an, Lin Heng had also heard about it. After all, the scale of the poetry meeting was so large that passers-by would mention it.

This person wants to embarrass himself at the poetry festival so he can save face!
But aren't you just doing your own thing?

Did you not see my brother’s strength or what, do you insist on humiliating yourself?
Just take out a few ancient quatrains and beat you up!
Thinking of this, Lin Heng narrowed his eyes. Since he is targeting me, I might as well torture you!

Lin Heng was about to agree, but at this moment, the system prompt sounded.

【Ding!System release event selection:】

[Choice [-]: Stay aloof from the world (refuse Changsun Chong to show that he disdains arguments), choose the reward: a restaurant on the second floor of Chunmingmen]

[Option [-]: Feisty (promise to Changsun Chong and embarrass him at the poetry festival), choose reward: two palace maids (Note: This option may lead to Li Shimin, Changsun Wuji, Changsun Wuji, Li Lizhi, etc. People’s favorability decreases)]

[Choice 1: Sue softly and plead guilty (apologise to Changsun Chong), choice reward: Various values ​​​​of the host body +[-] (Note: This option may cause the favorability of Li Ningxi and Li Lizhi to decrease, and the favorability of Changsun Wuji and Changsun Chong will decrease. Improve.)] Seeing these choices, Lin Heng couldn't help but weigh the pros and cons.

The favorability of the daughter-in-law is the most important thing. Since it cannot be increased, it certainly cannot be decreased.

Why do the eldest grandson and his son, who will lose power and be exiled in a few years, need their favorability?
My father-in-law is already an emperor, why do I still need to curry favor with them?

A strange system choice, but it was the two-story restaurant at Chunmingmen that Lin Heng immediately settled on.

The location of Chunmingmen is much better than my own secret one. If I throw all the thousand strings in, I can only rent it for two months. This is a lot of money!

Seeing that Lin Heng was silent for a long time, Changsun Chong sneered and said, "What's wrong? Brother Lin is worried and doesn't dare to do it anymore?"

In Changsun Chong's view, this man was just a man with no talent and no virtue. He was just a farm boy who fawned over the emperor. How could he compare with him?
Those lines of poetry are indeed extraordinary, but who can prove that he wrote them himself?

And even if it is, Changsun Chong has his own way to deal with him. After all, the capital is his home court!

Lin Heng came back to his senses and shook his head: "To be honest, I have no pursuit of fame and fortune. The reason for this grand opening of Secret Fragrance is just to make some achievements so that Her Highness the Princess will not commit herself to me, a farmer. As for the rest, I really have no idea.”

Hearing what Lin Heng said, Li Ningxi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

She believed that Lin Heng could make a name for himself in Chang'an with his talent alone, even if nothing else. After all, he was someone who could talk to the prince about the ups and downs, and his mother and others also highly recognized him.

But to become famous, you don't need to participate in such romantic occasions. It is just a way for some talented people who have no way to seek fame to be valued and promoted, which is considered inferior.

Besides, there is no need to have this kind of emotional dispute with Changsun Chong. There is no benefit in winning. It will only increase his reputation and offend Changsun Wuji.

Seeing how steady Lin Heng was, Li Ningxi's eyes showed appreciation again.

Changsun Chong seemed to have heard a big joke and said with an unhappy expression: "Brother Lin, why are you so hypocritical? If it's not for fame, then why are you recruiting a son-in-law?"

After he finished speaking, Li Lizhi stood up directly and shouted: "That's enough! Since Lin Langjun said so, you should respect his choice, why be aggressive!"

In the Yiqiu Palace that day, everyone heard Lin Heng's heartfelt words. Even the prince Li Chengqian recognized this person. His father even went to Lin Heng's home to take the exam in person. Although he didn't know his attitude, he could learn from his father's recent visit. The emperor's actions showed his feelings, and he was naturally satisfied.

And his eldest son, Sun Chong, spoke so harshly just because he was dissatisfied with Lin Heng. Not only Li Ningxi, but also Li Lizhi couldn't stand it anymore.

Lin Heng looked at his future sister-in-law with some surprise. The bottle of perfume I gave you was not in vain!

You will definitely have a share of good things in the future!
He also said that although there were no rewards for increasing Li Ningxi and Li Lizhi's favorability in the system's selections, his actions had invisibly increased their favorability towards him.

But this Changsun Chong is indeed a thorn in the side.

Damn it, pretending to be cool is fun for a while, but you have to weigh the pros and cons.

Now that I have no power, it is better to be humble and develop.
