The concubine doesn't fall in love, but crazy critics insist on holding her responsible

Chapter 37 Gratitude
Princess Fukang walked straight towards Lin Zhiyu, lifted Lin Zhiyu's chin with her red-nailed fingers, and lingered on her beautiful face with contemptuous eyes.

What a charming face.

"Since you know you are wrong, then go and kneel in the corridor. Kneel until I allow you to get up, then get up again."

When everyone heard this, they sighed endlessly.

Today was Mrs.

Lin Zhiyu was immediately speechless and said with difficulty: "My maid... I obey."

After receiving the answer, Princess Fukang pushed the person back hard.

Lin Zhiyu's chin felt a stinging pain, and he leaned back and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Pei Shizhi held his waist and prevented him from falling ugly.

Lin Zhiyu was still frightened. When she realized that she was being supported, she turned around and smiled gratefully. When she saw it was Pei Shizhi, she quickly looked away.

Pei Shizhi saw the nervousness and panic in Lin Zhiyu's eyes, like a frightened young deer.

He did not expect that Lin Zhiyu, who had always been timid, would risk everything to express his gratitude. While he was surprised, sporadic appreciation and gratitude emerged from the bottom of his heart.

Look, another one is fascinated.

Princess Fukang snorted coldly, "Hurry up and go!"

Lin Zhiyu lowered his head and was about to walk down the corridor. Pei Shizhi held him back, lowered his face, and warned: "Fukang, enough is enough!"

Princess Fukang knew that the emperor valued Pei Shizhi, and when she saw that Pei Shizhi was angry, she gave up and said, "Cousin, are you angry now? Are you so protective of your little fiancée? This is not the end of the story."

"Forget it, it's a big day. For the sake of Mrs. Xie, I'll let her go this time."

Lin Zhiyu breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly kowtowed to thank her. Before she could get up, she heard Princess Fukang's suggestion: "Lin Zhiyu, you really have a good sister."

Xie Yiwan stiffened and subconsciously looked at Pei Shizhi, fearing that he might hear something.

But Pei Shizhi's attention was not on her at all. He supported Lin Zhiyu and lowered his head to ask something.

Pei Shizhi actually regretted helping Lin Zhiyu.

He was planning to use Lin Zhiyu's bad reputation to break off the engagement today, wasn't he?But when Lin Zhiyu fell to the ground, he stretched out his hand uncontrollably.

Pei Shizhi closed his eyes, probably because he was grateful to her for helping Awan.

The farce here finally came to an end. I don’t know when a few dark clouds appeared in the sky, covering the sun.

At the banquet not far away, there were two people who saw everything that happened here. They were Xiao Xuan's two friends, Su Yue and Jiang Chongan.

The two people's faces were covered with a layer of human skin masks, changing their appearance and identity. They were supposed to use their identities to talk to the officials who came to congratulate them to gain military information, but at this meeting, they were discussing Lin Zhiyu and Xie Yiwan.

Jiang Chongan asked, "Lin Zhiyu's flowing dress came from your hands, right? Don't you always allow others to touch the clothes in your shop? Why did you change your mind this time?"

Su Yue held his chin, his eyes staring at Lin Zhiyu, sometimes showing admiration and affection, "Of course I have taken a liking to this person and want to please him."

Jiang Chongan didn't know what Su Yue fell in love with Lin Zhiyu, so he deliberately misinterpreted: "You have a crush on Xie Yiwan? Are you blind?"

Su Yue's face turned black as if he had eaten something unclean, "You are blind. I see Yao Yao! Xie Yiwan has been exposed to Yao Yao. Otherwise, let alone changing her clothes, she wouldn't even be able to touch her." Touch it.”

Fortunately, the Liuguang Yi was finally worn on Yao Yao.

Su Yue laughed again.Seeing Su Yue smiling like he had lost his mind, Jiang Chongan rolled his eyes indecently.

No wonder Su Yue fell in love with this idiot Lin Zhiyu, it's just that stupid people attract each other.

I still don’t know that Lin Zhiyu was alive for a short time and was Xiao Xuan’s favorite chess piece... I hope Su Yue just acted on a whim and just for fun.

……

All the officials were present, and as soon as the empress and phoenix arrived, the people watching the ceremony took their seats one after another, and the birthday banquet started.

Maybe it's because of her age. In recent years, Mrs. Xie's body has declined greatly, and her figure has become thinner and thinner. There are two thin pieces of flesh hanging on her cheeks. When she is not smiling, her triangular eyes are slightly drooped, and she looks mean and sharp.

But when someone celebrates a happy occasion, he dresses up in fine clothes, which makes him look a little more charitable.

Gun salutes were fired and drums were played.

As the only royal wife in the house, Mrs. Song was good at dancing and shouldered the important task of welcoming the ladies. Xie Yiwan followed behind Mrs. Song, smiling gently and politely. The ladies always complimented her when they saw her, which made Xie Yiwan laugh. Cheeks flushed.

Among them, the one who pulled Xie Yiwan and smiled the most affectionately was the step-wife of the Zhao family. This person was a biological sister to the Song family. They even did the ridiculous thing of sending Zhao Rulang, the daughter-in-law born from her aunt's mother-in-law, to an old temple in the countryside to practice hard.

This inevitably reminded Lin Zhiyu of Lin Songyi, who was forced to study in Qianyi Mountain and could not return home.

A sister was still not allowed to come back to such a grand family event as a birthday banquet. Because of the saying "Kefu hurts politics", Ajie's mother died in childbirth in the early years, and the hat of being a mother was pinned on Ajie.

Because they were twins, Sister, as the first one, could not get out. She almost died of one body and three lives. In the end, the mother died and the son survived.

But the dystocia was clearly Mrs. Xie’s fault.

For so many years, Mrs. Xie has been wanting to let the grandson of the Lin family marry the daughter of the Xie family. However, because Lin Songyi's mother was granted a marriage by the emperor, Mrs. Xie had no choice but to take advantage of General Lin's war in the palace and away from home. Remove people by pickling.

But Mrs. Xie never expected that a Shen family would appear on the way and be noticed by General Lin. General Lin insisted on marrying her back to the family regardless of her background as a merchant.

It's not that Mrs. Xie didn't find any way to suppress the Shen family. The concubines and ladies in General Lin's backyard are the good deeds of Mrs. Xie. Mrs. Xie wants these women to fight for the seats of the concubine's wife. peaceful.

But General Lin would rather they fight than marry the Xie family daughter.

Seeing that her grandsons are all grown up, Mrs. Xie has no choice but to vent her resentment on Mr. Shen.

At this moment, Mrs. Shen was not allowed to talk in front of others like Mrs. Song. She could only stand behind Mrs. Xie like other concubines, like a serving maid.

Such grievances are not something ordinary people can endure.

In her previous life, Lin Zhiyu didn't understand and couldn't bear it, so she hated General Lin, and even her brothers and sisters became the object of her resentment.

Later, Lin Zhiyu understood that when the dynasty was first established, neither the western nor the northern territories were peaceful. For the sake of the people and the court, General Lin could not come back. Since ancient times, loyalty and justice have been difficult to balance.

The reason why Mrs. Shen has always presented herself as a concubine is because General Lin was afraid that after Mrs. Shen was corrected, she would follow in the footsteps of Lin Songyi's mother and suffer the murderous murder of Mrs. Xie.

It would be better to be aggrieved and wait for him to pacify the Western Territory before avenging his previous humiliation.

But General Lin never expected that his loyal emperor would be ungrateful. He would not be able to conquer the Western Territory, and the Shen family would never be able to wait until the day when they could avenge their shame.

What they were waiting for was a bunch of white flags and several thin coffins.
