A concubine enters the mansion? Reborn, three matchmakers and six engagements to marry the Prime Min
Chapter 676 The Water in the Harem is Deep
Lin Wuchen raised his eyebrows slightly, "Father... agrees?"
Lin Wanli hummed unhappily and said, "I am your biological father, so I naturally hope that your marriage will be successful. You have finally found someone you like, and I can't ruin your marriage."
If that were the case, not only would his son be unhappy, but he would probably hate him for the rest of his life.
Lin Wuchen was not surprised at all. He knew his father and knew that he would give in in the end.
"Dad, have you thought about how to tell grandma? I don't care what dad says, but no matter who is in the Lin family, they can't target Ah Ci because of this."
"I made the decision, so if you have any complaints, come to me. If you appear to be nice to everyone but stab me in the back, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Lin Wanli was stunned for a moment, and then the chopsticks in his hand hit Lin Wuchen directly on the head.
"How can you talk like that? Aren't we your relatives? In your mind, we are just villains who can only bully your new bride?"
Lin Wuchen smiled apologetically and said, "I didn't tell you guys to be like this. Isn't this just a reminder in advance?"
Lin Wanli snorted, "Don't worry, none of what you said will happen."
Afterwards, Lin Wanli started visiting relatives with gifts. He first went to the Shen family to see the old lady and gave her a 500-year-old ginseng. He also gave Su Qingyu a cart of supplements and a lot of toys for the children.
Not only his, but also other elders in Yunzhou Prefecture gave Su Qingyu gifts.
Su Qingyu had not yet finished her confinement, so she had not seen her uncle. Shen Zhixiu specially invited Lin Wanli to have dinner with him, and also invited the second master of the Shen family to accompany him.
After visiting Old Madam Shen and Su Qingyu, Lin Wanli went to Prince Ning's Mansion again. He formally proposed marriage to Prince Ning's Mansion and decided on the marriage between Lin Wuchen and Su Shunci.
The wedding date has not been set yet, so we have to wait until next year at least.
After the marriage was decided, Lin Wanli did not leave Beijing. Instead, he began to prepare the betrothal gifts, intending to go to the Ning Wang Mansion to propose marriage.
Of course, it would take several months to prepare the betrothal gifts to his satisfaction.
In a blink of an eye, it was the tenth day of March, and the Duke of Weiguo returned to the capital.
Although Miaojiang was not completely destroyed, it was trapped in a valley by the Great Zhou army. It was easy to defend but difficult to attack, and the methane was spreading, so they could only remain in a stalemate for the time being.
Coincidentally, Su Yuanzhou also returned to Beijing from northern Xinjiang on the same day.
Emperor Xuande immediately issued an order to hold a banquet in the Hall of Supreme Harmony in the evening to welcome the Duke of Weiguo and Prince Ning.
It was morning when Su Yuanzhou entered the city. He first went to the palace to report and told the emperor about the situation of the border defense in the past six months.
After leaving the palace, he couldn't wait to return home.
The Ning Wang Mansion had already received the news, so when Su Yuanzhou entered, the whole family was already waiting at the door.
He first glanced at Shen Yue, then knelt down and saluted Lin Wanyin.
"My son has been away from Beijing for several months, which makes me worried."
Lin Wanyin stepped forward to help him up, "Stop being so polite, you look darker and thinner."
Su Yuanzhou smiled and said, "The wind is strong in the north, but this winter has been relatively peaceful, and I haven't suffered much."
Afterwards, Su Yuanzhou bowed to Bai Sulian again, and Shen Yue and Su Shunci also came forward and said a few words to him.
"Come in and talk. The wine and food are ready. Let's have a reunion dinner today." Lin Wanyin said with a smile.
The family surrounded Su Yuanzhou and walked into the palace. When Su Yuanzhou turned around, he took Shen Yue's hand.
The two looked at each other, their eyes intertwined and entangled, full of affection.
While eating, Lin Wanyin kept talking about Su Qingyu's children, how interesting and well-behaved they were.
After hearing this, Su Yuanzhou wanted to go to the Shen family to see his nephew immediately. It is said that nephews resemble their uncles, and he didn't know whether Cong'er looked like him.
After lunch, Su Yuanzhou took advantage of the free time before entering the palace and went to the Shen family.
He held the child tightly in his arms and talked to Su Qingyu for a long time. He left only when it was almost time to enter the palace.
Because today is the day to welcome Duke Weiguo and Su Yuanzhou, the palace has specially issued an order for Concubine Xuanning and the fourth young lady of the Su family to enter the palace.
Only Shen Yue was still in mourning period and stayed in the palace.
When Lin Wanyin and Su Shunci entered the Hall of Supreme Harmony, they met Hai and Su Zhilan.
They say that the capital's feng shui changes over time, and it's really true.
When Su Zhilan first returned to Beijing, she was just an inconspicuous daughter of the third wife of a marquis's mansion. Among all the noble ladies in Beijing, she had little presence.
But ever since Song Hongshen returned to his ancestral home and was canonized as the crown prince, Su Zhilan's status has also risen.
Just like now, Su Zhilan was surrounded by people flattering her.
Even Hai was surrounded by the ladies.
When the mother and daughter saw Lin Wanyin and Su Shunci, they were like seeing a savior. They immediately went up to greet them and went to talk to them.
This way, it would be difficult for others to come forward.
Lin Wanyin and Hai don't usually see each other, so when they met today, they naturally had to have a good talk.
Su Shunci took Su Zhilan out to visit the garden. It was better than being surrounded by people and having those polite words said to them.
When she saw Wang Jinyao, Su Shunci whispered, "Didn't they say before that she had arranged a marriage? She was going to marry outside, why is there no news again?"
Because Wang Jinyao had had a conflict with Su Zhilan before, Su Shunci was very wary of her.
Su Zhilan shook her head and said, "I don't know. During the Chinese New Year, they said they were already in love. But after the Chinese New Year, they said their horoscopes were not compatible, so they didn't discuss marriage any further."
Su Shunci thought for a moment and said, "Could it be that after seeing that the Crown Prince's background has been revealed, she has started to think about something else?"
It's not surprising that Su Shunci thought so. Ever since Song Hongshen was named the crown prince, families with daughters in the capital have been planning for this.
The prince is young and promising, and is favored by the emperor. Although the position of the principal wife has been taken by the fifth daughter of the Su family, the position of the concubine is still vacant.
Besides, even if the fifth lady of the Su family became the crown prince's wife, she might not be able to ascend to the throne.
Becoming the queen does not necessarily mean you will be favored.
The water in this harem is very deep.
A new emperor appoints new ministers, so they naturally had to make plans early and send their daughter to the prince first.
Su Zhilan smiled when she heard this, "There are many people watching the prince, so these few things won't make a difference."
She always remembered what her elder sister said, it would not be difficult for the Shen and Su families to have one queen.
So she didn't really care about what those people did. At most, she could just close the door and live her own life.
Su Shunci was a little worried, thinking that if there were too many rotten melons and jujubes, they could overwhelm people.
But she didn't say much. Her fifth sister hadn't gotten married yet, so it was too early to say these things now.
As the two were chatting, a palace maid suddenly came up to them.
"Miss Fourth Su, the Empress Chen invites you to come over and talk."
Su Shunci was surprised. Why did the Concubine Chen invite her over to talk? Her only interaction with Jiang Ziyan was during the two hours in Prince Ning's mansion when her brother got married.
Su Zhilan also looked at the little palace maid suspiciously, "Are you really from the palace of Concubine Chen?"
There are too many evil spirits in this palace. Whenever she steps into the palace, she is extremely cautious and alert.
The young palace maid took out the Guanju Palace badge from her waist and said, "Please have a look, Princess Anping."
He added: "The queen is in the side room, this cannot be false."
