But Lin Wanyi knew that it was not so easy to explain to her mother and second brother.

Originally, they were very resistant to her remarrying so soon, and now that she was marrying an eunuch, it was even more difficult for them to accept it.

I don’t know how to explain this in the banquet speech.

Lin Wanyi first went to her mother's residence in the backyard with worries.

When several maids saw her, they were very happy to greet her.

"Princess, the princess has been waiting for you."

Lin Wanyi nodded slightly, and when she stepped in, she saw her mother Dongfang Yanran leaning on the imperial concubine's couch with a sad face, one hand on her forehead, and a pile of rice paper on the low table next to her hand, which was densely covered with words.

Lin Wanyi said: "Mother, why are you so sad?"

Dongfang Yanran was very happy to see her daughter coming. She took her daughter's hand and sat down, frowning again, "Isn't it the one above? He said something about being considerate of our relatives who have just reunited, but he also said something about you. If we don’t get married, your second and third brothers won’t be able to return to Rongcheng, bah! This dog emperor is openly threatening us!”

Lin Wanyi frowned.

The second brother and the third brother were ordered to send Du Qingqing to Beijing to get married, but in fact they made her marriage a weakness of the Rongcheng Palace.

King Rongcheng and the others had told Du Qingqing about this matter before.

But Du Qingqing was willing, so they didn't stop him.

Nowadays, Du Qingqing is no longer the princess of the palace, but Lin Wanyi, a genuine princess, still cannot escape the emperor's scheme.

If he doesn't comply, then the emperor will charge the Rongcheng Palace with the crime of treason, and the first thing he will do is detain Li Jin and Li Cang in the capital!

Seeing her daughter frowning, Dongfang Yanran said, "I have seen all these people. They are either from the Seventh Prince's faction or from the Ninth Prince's faction. They will be the ones who appear in the Cuju competition tomorrow."

As for the others?

The two princes had already used various means to retreat.

This is the reason why Dongfang Yanran is irritable. Not to mention the two princes, she doesn't even like them themselves!

Lin Wanyi's eyes widened after hearing this.

No, there is actually another person who does not belong to the two princes' faction.

At the same time, in the study room in the front yard of the palace, Yan Ci also looked at the lists on the booklet, pushed the book away, and said slowly: "No, there is another person who is not on these lists."

Li Jin narrowed her eyes and looked at him, "Indeed, there are some people who are not on this list. They have their own intentions and want to curry favor with the Rongcheng Palace, but they dare not offend the two princes. Tomorrow, they will not appear at all. At the Cuju competition.”

"No, this person can appear in the Cuju competition. Not only does he dare to offend the two princes, but the two princes also dare not offend him."

Li Jin was about to ask who it was, but when he looked at the banquet speech in front of him, he looked calm and calm, and immediately stood up, shocked.

"Yanci, are you talking about yourself? Are you kidding!"

Yan Ci slowly picked up the Buddhist beads on his wrist, "Now, the knife has been placed on the neck of Prince Rongcheng's house. You have no other better way. In addition, you are reluctant to let go of Lin Wanyi and don't want to marry her casually." You are worried that she will meet someone unkind again, right?"

Li Jin sneered, "Why, does Governor Yan think he will be my family's husband?"

Yan Ci raised his eyelids and said, "Your Majesty knows that I was tied to Prince Rongcheng's palace a long time ago. In addition, I don't know if I am the princess's beloved, but I am an eunuch."

How could Li Jin not understand the meaning of the banquet speech?

But no matter what, he felt too wronged!

They had just met each other, and the family hadn't even gotten close to each other. The father and the king hadn't even met Huan Huan yet, so they just married Huan Huan to a eunuch?

Also, if Yan Ci suddenly proposed this, could it be that he had already coveted Huan Huan, or had some other ulterior motives?

Li Jin temporarily suppressed all the complicated thoughts in his mind. He looked at the calm banquet speech, took a deep breath and said: "I can't make the decision on this matter. I need to inform my mother, and I need to ask Huan Huan." That’s what I mean.”

"That's natural, but tomorrow's Cuju competition is the deadline given by His Majesty to Prince Rongcheng's Palace."

"I know. You wait here while I go to the backyard to talk to my mother about this."

"it is good."

Li Jin left the study with deep thoughts and walked to the backyard.

Others didn't know it, but he had known Yan Ci for many years. This man suddenly brought up the matter of marrying Huan Huan. On the one hand, he wanted to help their Rongcheng Palace, but on the other hand?

Could it be that there are other calculations?

That man is the deepest in the city and has a very thoughtful mind. He must have other purposes!

But in fact, Li Jin also knew that the other party's proposal was, to a certain extent, within the wishes of the Rongcheng Palace.

Perhaps, Huanwan could get married to Na Yanci under false pretenses...

Li Jin just walked to the door of her mother's yard and heard the laughter inside. When she listened carefully, she heard the voice of her sister Huan Huan.

When he opened the curtain and came in, he saw his mother and sister, talking about something unknown, looking happy.

His eyebrows also relaxed slightly.

When Lin Wanjing saw him coming, she stood up and said, "Second brother."

Li Jin nodded, "Huan Huan came just in time. Mother, I have something important to tell you and Huan Huan."

Then, he said what he said in the banquet speech.

As soon as Li Jin finished speaking, Dongfang Yanran exploded instantly. She smashed the roster to the ground!

"What does the banquet speech mean? It's not like my Hanhan can't get married, so why should she marry a eunuch? He can't even let her..."

At this point, Dongfang Yanran suddenly realized that her daughter Huanwan was still beside her, so she swallowed half of the sentence and said depressedly: "Anyway, I don't agree with this!"

Lin Wanyi quickly helped her mother sit down and gently stroked her back, "Mom, calm down, calm down."

Dongfang Yanran held her daughter's hand tightly, "Don't worry, Huanwen, we will think of other ways and we will never let you marry a eunuch!"

Lin Wanyi felt a little complicated for a while.

On the other hand, Li Jin, who was next to him, was the most observant. He found that his mother did have a huge reaction, but Huan Huan seemed to be... not too opposed to it?

He said slowly: "In my opinion, this matter is indeed unbelievable, but the people participating in the Cuju competition tomorrow are basically the people of the Seventh and Ninth Princes, and tomorrow is the deadline given by His Majesty."

Dongfang Yanran said angrily: "It's okay, the worst case scenario is that we pack our bags and escape from the city overnight, and head west all the way back to Rongcheng! If the dog emperor still doesn't let us go, let Xiao Cang assassinate him! In the worst case, we can rebel!" "

Lin Wanyi and Li Jin's eyebrows jumped when they heard this, and they quickly comforted her. When they finally coaxed Dongfang Yanran, Dongfang Yanran held her daughter's hand, feeling very sad.

"I'm sorry, Huanhua..."

"Mother, please don't say that. The imperial power is too great, and we cannot confront it head-on."

In her last life, when she learned that the entire Lin family was being executed, Lin Wanyi hated the dog emperor, but there was nothing she could do.

Today, even more so.

Li Jin had been observing his sister's expression, and he tentatively said, "Huanhan, what do you think of the fake marriage with Yan Ci?"
