imperial concubine

Chapter 75
After the eldest lady stuffed 500 taels of silver notes into the eunuch's sleeve, Su Lin smiled and sent the eunuch out of the house.Su Wan on the side looked at Su Lin and nodded secretly. Under such a blow, he can still hide his emotions and anger. He is really a good seedling.

Thinking of this, Su Wan took a deep look at Su Lin, but unfortunately, you are in the same situation as me.When you stood in front of me, trying to act like a cart, your ending today was already doomed.

Xuanzhi's convoy gradually drifted away, and disappeared at the corner of the street after a while.At this time, Su Huaiyuan, who was always smiling, restrained his smile, and said to everyone in a deep voice: "Second brother, third brother, Lin Er and I went to the study to discuss matters."

The three people named are all extremely influential figures in the mighty Marquis Mansion, plus Su Huaiyuan, there must be a big event that can affect the mighty Marquis Mansion!It's just that apart from a very few people, even the eldest lady doesn't know what happened.

Su Huaiyuan walked a few steps first, and then stopped again. After a moment of contemplation, he said slowly, "Wan'er, you come too." As he spoke, Su Huaiyuan led the three people at the beginning to go straight to the study room. go.

The eldest lady glanced at Su Wan with extremely complicated eyes.You must know that Su Huaiyuan's study is the core of power in the mighty Marquis Mansion. Even though I have followed Su Huaiyuan for so many years, I have never stepped into the study to discuss matters. I never thought that Su Wan would have such an honor now.

Su Wan was also taken aback when she heard Su Huaiyuan's words.But even after realizing it, now that he is the winner of the golden hairpin, and he was on top of the Sutra feast that day, no matter what he said, he already had the full strength to enter the study to discuss matters.

Thinking of this, Su Wanchong nodded slightly to the eldest lady, with a smile on the corner of her mouth. The things that the eldest lady worked so hard for until now were easily obtained by herself, and the eldest lady must be extremely sad in her heart.

Seeing Su Huaiyuan drifting away, Su Wan hurriedly followed.After a while, the five of them arrived outside Su Huaiyuan's study. This was just an ordinary room with flowers and plants growing outside the door, and the vermilion paint on the door was a little peeled off. It looked no different from other rooms.

But Su Wan knew in her heart that this was the first step in her revenge plan!Today, Su Huaiyuan brought himself here to discuss matters, which proved that he now has a very important weight in Su Huaiyuan's heart, even surpassing the eldest lady in a certain sense.

Su Huaiyuan sat on the teacher's chair in the middle of the study, and the remaining four people just sat one by one.It's just that the study room was quiet, even Su Lin, who had just received the imperial edict, didn't make a sound, just sat on his seat.

After a long time, Su Huaiyuan finally spoke, breaking the silence in the room, "What do you guys think about this matter?"

Although everyone in the mansion didn't see the clues, and they weren't even happy that the young master had received His Majesty's imperial decree and reward, but Su Huaiyuan felt very keenly that something was wrong with this matter, so he brought the four of them to the study for discussion.

Although the second master and the third master are not as high as Su Huaiyuan, they are also elites who have been in the officialdom for many years. Naturally, they also felt that something was wrong. At this time, hearing Su Huaiyuan's words, the second master said: "Brother, this matter Something's not right."

According to Su Lin's previous performance on the Sutra Banquet, even if he is not promoted to an important position, he will definitely be a real vacancy. Now that the imperial decree has come down, the original real vacancy has become an insignificant Qingshui yamen like Taichang Temple ?

Su Huaiyuan, who was sitting on the grand teacher's chair, nodded, then asked Su Lin with a frown, "Lin'er, what was wrong with your performance at the Sutra Banquet yesterday? Or did you make a mistake in your words and offended the prime minister or the princess?" ?”

Su Huaiyuan didn't ask Su Lin if he offended His Majesty, because Su Huaiyuan knew in his heart that his son didn't have the guts at all, the biggest possibility was that he offended a certain adult unintentionally over words, that's why the matter turned This is now.

Although he had been tempered in the officialdom for several years, this sudden change was obviously beyond Su Lin's imagination. He sat blankly on the chair with his eyes straight, not knowing what he was thinking.

It wasn't until Su Huaiyuan asked the second time that Su Lin woke up from his daze, and looked at Su Huaiyuan in a daze, "No, yesterday I answered fluently at the Sutra Banquet, and my words were very measured. people are also very satisfied.”

Su Lin was very satisfied with his performance yesterday.After he came back last night, he also talked with Su Huaiyuan about the Jingyan in detail, and Su Huaiyuan didn't notice anything wrong.

However, if this is the case, why was Su Lin promoted to Taichang Temple by His Majesty?Taichang Temple is just a Qingshui yamen, with no real power, no rewards, just idle jobs.Su Lin is in a good youth, wouldn't His Majesty let him go to Taichang Temple to waste on him?
Hearing Su Lin's words, the second master and the third master stopped talking.They were not clear about the matters above the Sutra feast, but judging from His Majesty's reaction, Su Lin must have said something that should not have been said on the Sutra feast, that's why it happened.

Su Huaiyuan on the grand master's chair pondered for a long time before he spoke again, "Wan'er, you were at the Sutra Banquet yesterday, did you see Lin'er's mistakes? Or did you notice any displeasure from the prime minister or the princess?"

Su Wan was very clear about the reason why Su Lin was promoted secretly by Emperor Chongwen.After the decree was announced today, Su Wan knew that it must be her strategy yesterday that worked, that's why Su Lin was like this, and it was extremely difficult to turn over.

However, Su Huaiyuan couldn't tell the whole story about these things.So Su Wan lightly shook her head and said, "Father, Su Lin's performance at the Sutra Banquet yesterday was extremely brilliant, and even His Majesty was full of praise. Naturally, Her Highness the Princess and the Prime Minister will not be displeased."

Su Huaiyuan looked at Su Wan quietly.Ever since Su Wan fell into the water and was rescued, this daughter often brought surprises to herself. Whether it was winning the gold hairpin at the Nobile Banquet, or turning a poem into a poem at the Hundred Flowers Banquet, every time something happened, I could get to know Su Wan again.

I thought that this time Su Wan would bring herself some surprises.She never expected that even Su Wan could do nothing this time.But it's true, this matter is so weird, even as a veteran of the two dynasties, he can't see clearly, and Su Wan doesn't even know what the court looks like, so how can he see through these fogs?

The study suddenly fell silent again.After a while, the third master who hadn't spoken all this time finally spoke, "The Hou's Mansion has always been very close to the Prime Minister and His Royal Highness the Princess. Could it be because of this that Lin'er has been implicated?"

The third master spoke very slowly, but he spoke every word very clearly.The Weiwu Hou Mansion is from the prime minister's side, and the prime minister is very close to Yun Jingya, if Su Lin is promoted to a real lack, I'm afraid someone in the harem will be unhappy.

Su Huaiyuan was silent, he knew in his heart that when the new emperor ascended the throne, he instructed the eldest lady to get close to the prime minister's wife, and wanted to hug Fang Yuanli's thigh.Although he hugged his thigh, he also tied himself tightly to the princess's carriage.

If this incident really involves a struggle in the harem, I'm afraid that before the princess knows the enemies in the harem, Su Lin will never want to stand up again.

Su Wan, who was sitting at the bottom, looked at Su Huaiyuan's frown, but sighed in his heart. These people didn't think about it, if Emperor Chongwen really valued Su Lin, how could he be persuaded by the people in the harem?
Hearing third uncle's words, Su Lin calmed down instead.After he pondered for a while, he said: "If that's the case, this matter is actually simple. As long as the princess removes the enemies in the harem, I will naturally be able to recover. I'm afraid that this time someone deliberately made troubles out of it."

While speaking, Su Linruo asked Su Wan intentionally or unconsciously, "Sister, do you think I'm right?" His eyes fell on Su Wan's eyes following the voice, wanting to see if Su Wan would feel guilty.

On the Jingyan yesterday, Su Qing's behavior was too strange.If he wanted to embarrass himself in front of His Majesty, Su Qing would not ask such simple questions; if Su Qing really wanted to set off himself, how could he have such a heart?

Facing Su Lin's eyes like sharp swords, Su Wan looked straight into Su Lin's eyes unceremoniously, and said with a smile: "Your brother is right. There are many clues to this matter, and I don't know where to start. .We should all work together to figure this out now."

The meaning of Su Wan's words is to imply that Su Lin, although he has a problem with the eldest lady, he will not be ambiguous about this kind of matter.After all, everyone is from the mighty marquis mansion, so if you want to make trouble, you can only make trouble in the mansion.

Looking at Su Wan's confident eyes, Su Lin nodded, "My sister is right. But this matter is still clear. Although there is no evidence, only Her Royal Highness and the Princess have the power to change His Majesty's mind." The concubines of the harem."

Hearing Su Lin's words, a smile appeared on Su Wan's face.She knew in her heart that although Su Lin didn't quite believe in herself at this time, she had minimized the possibility of her framing him.

Su Huaiyuan let out a long sigh, and then said to Su Lin: "If this is the case, you will have to suffer for a while, Lin'er. You will not be able to recover in court until the princess has rectified the harem."

Although the words are extremely simple, Su Lin knows in his heart that what Su Huaiyuan said was a period of time, at least in years.However, the longer I stay in this position, the more important the position will be when I recover in the future.

Thinking of this, Su Lin stood up and saluted Su Huaiyuan, "Father, don't worry, the child will be able to endure loneliness. What's more, even if Taichang Temple is a Qingshui yamen, the child can do some extraordinary things."

Looking at the heroic Su Lin, Su Huaiyuan nodded in satisfaction.Perhaps, this time is also a good thing.When Su Lin became famous as a young man, he always had a trace of arrogance in him. Let him polish up these chores before he can go further in the future.

Thinking of this, Su Huaiyuan said: "It's a good thing that you have this heart. Train yourself in these positions, and your career will be smoother in the future. As for other things, don't think about it anymore. "

The words were full of encouragement, and at the end, he even mentioned Su Lin, since this incident was done by the concubines in the harem, before the princess makes the move, don't think about revenge, otherwise you will only get into trouble.

Although he was a little dissatisfied, Su Lin knew that what his father said was right, "Thank you father for reminding me, the child will definitely work diligently in the future and stop thinking about those messy things."

Seeing that Su Huaiyuan had already set the tone for the whole matter, everyone in the study naturally knew that the matter had come to an end.After the second and third masters stood up and saluted Su Huaiyuan, they left the study.

Su Wan and Su Lin also saluted Su Huaiyuan and prepared to leave.Just when the two of them walked to the door of the study, they heard Su Huaiyuan's voice behind them,

"Lin'er, you go first. Wan'er, I have something to tell you."
