For example, if the Marquis of Ding'an is close to a certain minister, there is a possibility of forming a party for personal gain.

For example, the Xiao family has been extravagant recently, and the family can spend hundreds of thousands of taels of silver in a month.

Where did Mr. Xiao get this money...

When the emperor was furious, he demoted Xiao Yuankai one level and became the first third-rank minister in history.

As for the Marquis of Ding'an, he was even more frightened and directly disowned the official.

Countless evidence of the official's crimes were also handed over: accepting bribes from wealthy businessmen to open the back door, raising young children for him to vent his anger, corruption and dereliction of duty, etc...

The Holy Emperor immediately ransacked his house and executed him, causing the Marquis of Ding'an to wipe away his sweat.

Not only that.

The affairs in the capital about Lin Yitong and Xiao Yuankai in the Ding'an Marquis Mansion were even more aggravated and spread to the emperor's ears.

It is said that the emperor calmly ordered Xiao Yuankai to take Lin Yitong as his concubine, and even the queen, who had a close relationship with Lin Yitong, did not come forward.

Marquis Ding'an almost spit out a mouthful of old blood.

Only they themselves know how frightened Lin Tingsong and Xiao Yuankai were on this day.

Xiao Yuankai told Mrs. Xiao and Hua Qingmu about taking Lin Yitong as his concubine.

Ding'an Hou Mansion

Recently, the Marquis of Ding'an has become angry with anxiety.

Mrs. Ding'an Hou knew that her daughter had an affair with Xiao Yuankai, and was ordered by the emperor to be sent to the Xiao Mansion to be a concubine. She was so anxious that she had an asthma attack on the spot and almost couldn't breathe.

The first thing he did when he woke up was to urge the Marquis of Ding'an to go to the palace to intercede for his daughter.

Marquis Ding'an knelt at the entrance of Dacheng Hall for three days, asking the emperor to take back his order.

The Holy Emperor not only ignored him, but also advanced the date of his expedition to three days later.

Marquis Ding'an was so angry that he vomited blood.

Lin Yitong has been hiding in the house for the past few days, refusing to come out, crying all day long.

Inside the study of Ding'an Hou

Lin Songyu and Lin Tingsong, father and son, were discussing.

"Dad, we will set off in three days. Mom is not in good health, so I don't worry about them both."

Lin Tingsong was naturally worried, but due to the man's outstanding achievements, the Ding'an Marquis Mansion had been cancelled. Song Yu could only rely on his own efforts to continue his glory.

Therefore, he said heartily: "Don't worry, don't worry! If you don't want to let go of the child, you can't trap the wolf! Don't worry, I have asked your grandfather's family to help take care of their mother and son. When we go to the border, our father and son must capture Beilin. Only in this way can we Consolidate the position of my Ding'an Marquis Mansion in the court, and avoid the shame of failing to conquer Xisha before the bloodbath!"

His Royal Highness King Yi is now a thorn in their hearts, they cannot touch them and there is nothing they can do about it.

Only by taking down the difficult Beilin can they stand up and be truly reused by the Holy One.

"But what about my little sister's marriage?"

Lin Tingsong's face was as gloomy as a thunderstorm in June. This matter was indeed more urgent.

"Master, Master, Madam is here."

The boy outside came in to report.

"Sir, Songyu." As soon as the boy finished speaking, Madam Zhu, the Marquis of Ding'an, came in with the help of the maid.

"Madam, why are you here?"

Lin Songyu also stepped forward to help Zhu.

Zhu's eyes were red and swollen, and she asked: "Tong'er, have you and your son discussed a result?"

Lin Tingsong sighed and said: "Originally, the Holy One was afraid of the collusion between the powerful. When this happened, the Holy One was furious, thinking that our Ding'an Marquis Mansion and the Xiao Mansion had already colluded together. I knelt for three days but could not persuade the Holy One. After changing his mind, he is determined to send Tong'er to the Xiao Mansion as a concubine." Upon hearing this, Zhu's weak body couldn't support her. Fortunately, Lin Songyu was beside her and quickly helped her sit down.

"Mother, don't worry. This time, the child and his father are going to fight against Beilin. With the Hua family's money as support, the child and the father will be able to defeat Beilin as soon as possible and earn great achievements."

His eyes became fierce: "Once Beilin is captured by us, the Hua family will be of little use. At that time, the Hua family will not be at the mercy of the Xiao family. It will only be a matter of time for the younger sister to become the main wife!" "

Lin Tingsong nodded, "Madam, I think so too. Don't worry, you must put your own body first. When Songyu and I return in triumph, how can the Hua family and the Xiao family do anything to me?" Hey! Just stay put for now."

Lin Yitong heard that her father had knelt for three days but could not change the mind of the current emperor. She was so angry that she threw everything in the room and cried uncontrollably.

The day when Lin Yitong was invited to the House of Xiao was scheduled to be the first day before Marquis Ding'an took his son to the expedition. Magnolia would be used as a dowry, and she would be the maidservant after passing.

Although the Marquis of Ding'an and his son were certain that they would win this battle, even if the battle was short, it would still take a year and a half.

Worried about his daughter's reputation, Ding'an Hou urged Xiao Yuankai to settle the matter early.

With the pressure from Marquis Ding'an, the Xiao Mansion was immediately busy.

The Marquis of Ding'an made it clear that even if his daughter came to be a concubine, they would not neglect it, and they would still arrange the dowry in a rich way.

Hua Qingmu used the excuse that she was frightened by Marquis Ding'an last time and needed to cultivate herself well. This time, she left the concubinage matter to Mrs. Xiao.

Mrs. Wu was cracking melon seeds and talking to Ms. Jiang non-stop, while Ms. Jiang listened quietly and answered another sentence from time to time.

At this moment, Jin Dou came to find Wu.

"Madam, Madam, please come over."

Wu shuddered, secretly thinking that something was wrong, and regretted not being able to hide away at her husband's house for the past two days.

She should have known that Mrs. Xiao would definitely come to her for advice when encountering this kind of thing.

And "coming up with ideas" meant that she was going to vomit blood again.

She stood up in a hurry, then suddenly her mind changed and she fell down again in an instant.

Jiang asked quickly: "Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you?"

Jin Dou was also startled, but then he added: "The old lady said that if the eldest lady faints, she should be carried over."

Damn the old woman, I'll kill her!

Wu shook her head, blinked her eyes, and said, "What's wrong with me? I was dizzy for a moment."

Jiang:...

Jindou:......

Sure enough, as soon as he arrived at Jinyutang, Mrs. Xiao complained.

With both kindness and prestige, Mrs. Xiao finally plundered another ten thousand taels.

She looked at the nearly empty treasury and stamped her feet bitterly.

If something happens in the future, you must stay away, damn old woman! They would catch her in a trap, but they couldn't help Hua Shi, so they picked up the weak ones and pinched them.

I regretted that I had nurtured her appetite in the past, otherwise I wouldn't have called her if something happened.

Now that she can't protect herself, she has no spare money to meddle in her own affairs.

He secretly made up his mind to never care about those bad things in Xiao Mansion from now on.

Mrs. Xiao still frowned.

The Marquis of Ding'an said that the return gift must not be less than 20,000 taels. She had already paid almost all for the eldest daughter-in-law, but she only had 10,000 taels.

He sent someone to Hua Qingmu's side again, but he didn't want to hit a wall, saying that he was frightened by Marquis Ding'an. He had not been comfortable these past two days. The courtyard door was closed and no one could be seen.
