Demon king favors evil concubine

Chapter 114 Returning home (1)
The Empress Dowager waved him to leave, and the Emperor Yue didn't say anything more when he saw his mother's exhausted expression, he only bowed and tiptoed out, and ordered the empress mother's confidant and steward, who was guarding the gate of the hall, to go in and wait carefully before leaving.

After the Emperor Yue returned to the Qianqing Palace, after discussing with the ministers waiting in the court, although the ministers in the court were dissatisfied with the empress dowager's desire to accept Lin Fanyin as a righteous daughter, they thought that she would risk her life to win Coming here to be rich and prosperous, there is no reason to object. Seeing that all the ministers were silent, Emperor Yue personally drew up the decree, conferring Lin Fanyin as Princess Renshan, and ordered his father-in-law to send the decree to the Lin Mansion. If it didn't help, he ordered to retreat, and he went back to the palace to rest for a while after the dismissal.

Let's talk about the Lin family, because of an imperial decree from the emperor, the whole family is boiling.

The main courtyard of the Lin Mansion, the inner three floors and the outer three floors are all members of the Lin family. Before the father-in-law came to announce the decree, he insisted that everyone in the Lin family come to hear the decree, so the members of the Lin family gathered together. After listening to the decree, some people were happy and others worry.

The happy ones are naturally the elders of the older generation of the Lin family. For the elders, it is a great event that the Lin family has a granddaughter named a princess. Glory to the ancestors!You know, although the Lin family and the Fang family of the Zhao family are called the three great families of the Western Han Dynasty, deep down, when facing the Fang family and the Zhao family, the Lin family always has a sense of inferiority that the Lin family is not as good as his two families. Why?It is because the Fang family and the Zhao family are not just businessmen. Both the Fang family and the Zhao family have clan members who are officials in the court, just like the Fang family. The servant of the Ministry of punishment is the eldest son of the third house of the Zhao family.

Only the descendants of the Lin family, although they are proficient in business, have nothing to do with the imperial examination. After hundreds of years, no promising descendant of the Lin family can make the Lin family famous by virtue of the imperial examination. After all, when Lin Fanyin was born, Xiangyun The Enveloping Fairy Lotus won the favor of the Empress Dowager, and won the title of Tianding Buddha Girl. The Lin family finally felt a little proud, but the good times didn't last long. The Empress Dowager was critically ill. Lin Fanyin volunteered to go to the Blackwood Forest to collect medicine for the Empress Dowager. At that time, the elders of the Lin family still disapproved.

It's not that she really cares about her life, but if she dies, wouldn't the Lin family go back to the past?
But Lin Fanyin's temperament, even the elders of the clan can't persuade him, the emperor ordered, no matter how unwilling the clan elders are, they can only let this glorious Tianding Buddha girl set off.

Fortunately, not only did she come back safely, she also cured the empress dowager's illness, and even won the title of Princess Renshan personally bestowed by the emperor!

Princess!
Their Lin family unexpectedly produced a princess!
The elders of the clan were beaming, and they didn't think there was anything wrong with Lin Fanyin's arbitrariness in arguing to spend 35 taels of gold before!

What the Lin family lacked most were gold and silver things, and what the Lin family lacked the most was the dignity that money could not buy in Yanjing!
Now that the Lin family has a princess, can the Fang family and the Zhao family be compared with their Lin family?
Compared with the joy of the clan elders, Lin Nanjiang, the eldest son of the Lin family, who is also the current head of the Lin family and his wife, Mrs. Zhang, had a dark face and was very unhappy. The trend that Fang puts in his eyes, now that Lin Fanyin has been awarded the title of princess, doesn't this mean that in the future, when their eldest family sees Lin Fanyin, they will instead salute Lin Fanyin instead?
Lin Nanjiang glanced at Mrs. Zhang, Mrs. Zhang understood, and said with a sour face, "Fourth Uncle is really good at calculating. He just kept silent and paid 35 taels of gold from his father to buy a princess." The title, Sifang is a good deal, but has Uncle Si ever thought that the 35 taels of gold belong to the public! And from now on, as elders, don’t we have to salute when we see Miss Si?"

Mrs. Zhang first picked Lin Fanyin's arbitrariness and made the elders feel distressed by taking the gold from the public. Then she mentioned such a princess, and the elders had to salute when they saw it. People who are used to being flattered are dissatisfied.

The situation was exactly as she wished, and several clan elders were a little bit dissatisfied after hearing this, money is fine, but if they want to salute their old bones to their grandchildren, wouldn't it be a big loss?
Lin Qingjiang's heart stopped when he heard this, and he was about to refute it, but when he saw his daughter shaking his head slightly, he didn't say anything.

Lin Fanyin got up, saluted first and said: "Madam said, Sanskrit did not dare to refute, but it was just about the gold, Sanskrit had no choice but to do it, and besides, it was not my Lin family who came out alone, the Fang family and Zhao Home, is it different? As for what the lady said, the elders have to salute the Sanskrit when they see the Sanskrit. Wouldn’t that mean breaking the Sanskrit? Although the Sanskrit was granted the title of benevolent princess by the emperor’s grace, the Sanskrit She is always the daughter of the Lin family, how dare the elders salute Sanskrit?"

Her statement successfully made several dissatisfied clan elders relax their brows. Not only did they feel that Lin Fanyin's behavior was magnanimous, but it was rare that he was so modest after being named a princess. Not putting on airs.

On the other hand, Mrs. Zhang, as the matriarch of the family, was vitriolic and mean, and even tried to stir up trouble. In contrast, the elders of the clan could tell at a glance who was superior and who was inferior.

Seeing that Lin Fanyin successfully turned the situation around with just a few words, Mrs. Zhang gritted her teeth with hatred, and said unwillingly: "If you want to say something nice, who wouldn't? The money is paid by everyone, and the title is yours. Of course you..."

"enough!"

An angry reprimand interrupted Mrs. Zhang's unfinished words, everyone looked along and saw that Lin Rong, who was the most prestigious grandparent in the clan, opened his mouth, they all shook their heads and dared not speak.

Lin Rong looked dissatisfied at the dissatisfied Mrs. Zhang, and scolded: "An ignorant woman with long hair and short knowledge, how can the title of Princess Benevolent and Good of the Fourth Miss be bought with gold? That's what the Fourth Miss bought. Life is here! Are you not convinced? Why didn’t you volunteer to go to the Blackwood Forest? Besides, the fourth girl is from my Lin family, and my Lin family has a princess. That is the great glory of the Lin family. Ignorant woman, you are in vain as the mistress of the Lin family, why are your eyelids so superficial?"

Mrs. Zhang was so ashamed by what he said, looking at a room full of people who were gleeful and watching the excitement, she felt angry, hated and ashamed in her heart. As the head of the Lin family, she was usually the only one who could control others, but now she turned against her. Coming here to be manipulated by others, the feeling is really miserable!
