After rebirth, tear the black-hearted husband to pieces and step on the evil mother-in-law

Prince An was about to speak to Yun Xi, but Yun Xi nodded slightly and whispered two words: "Don't worry!"

Prince An understood instantly, turned his head and whispered in Lin Luoling's ear: "Butler Yun Xi will protect you, don't worry."

After saying this, Prince An left with the imperial guards.

Looking at Prince An's back, Lin Luoling pursed her lips. How could she be assured? Manager Yun Xi would protect her, so would Prince An be punished?

Amidst his chaotic thoughts, Yun Xi said to Lin Luoling in a neutral tone, "What are you doing standing there, daughter of the Lin family? Come with us."

The sound was very creepy, just like standing in bright sunshine and a cold wind blowing into the ears, making Lin Luoling's hair stand on end.

Following Yun Xi, I walked forward for a while with a nervous heart, and then a voice that was difficult to distinguish between Yin and Yang was heard.

"Hey! Isn't this Chief Steward Yun? Yesterday, I was carrying some fine wine and wanted to have a few drinks with you. I heard that you were out of the palace on business. Hey, this woman is really pretty. Where are you planning to send her to?"

Yun Xi said, "It's Chief Steward Lu. Why isn't he serving the Empress today? Did the Empress like the cloud peony that we sent over last time? It took a lot of effort to grow it."

As he spoke, Yun Xi turned his head and glanced at Lin Luoling coldly, and said, "She is a girl from a merchant family. Princess July likes her and asked us to send her to the palace of the Queen Mother for her to take a look."

After that, Yun Xi scolded Lin Luoling coldly, "This is Lu, the chief steward in the Queen's palace. He is so tactless and doesn't know how to behave?"

Hearing this, Lin Luoling bowed and said, "Greetings, Manager Lu."

"Since you are the one that Princess July likes, there is no need to be polite. You have already met the Queen Mother. If Princess July is free, ask her to bring you to the Queen Mother's palace to sit for a while. Princess July has been away for several months, and the Queen Mother has mentioned her many times."

On the way here, Prince An mentioned to Lin Luoling in the carriage that the chief eunuch in the Queen's palace, named Lu Dong, was a mean person with sweet words but a sharp tongue.

Lin Luoling also understood quickly that although Yun Xi spoke to her very rudely and his eyes were cold, he was protecting her in his words and also told her Lu Dong's identity.

Yun Xi pulled the corners of his mouth, revealing an uncertain smile, and said, "I have to hurry to report to His Majesty, so I will be busy these few days. When I have some free time in a couple of days, I will have a few drinks with Chief Steward Lu."

Lu Donghui smiled and said, "It's settled. The Queen was very pleased with the cloud peony that Chief Steward Yun sent over. She wanted to thank Your Majesty for the gift. It was just a coincidence that Your Majesty was busy with official duties these past two days and couldn't see her."

Yun Xi said, "The northern border has been unstable recently, and your majesty is in a bad mood. In a few days, when your majesty is in a good mood, I will ask Xiao Fuzi to send a few more pots of cloud peonies to the queen."

This was said cryptically. Lu Dong came here to wait this time, presumably because he knew that Prince An had returned to the capital. First, he wanted to see what Lin Luoling looked like, second, he wanted to discern His Majesty's thoughts from Yun Xi's attitude towards Lin Luoling, and third, the Queen Mother knew that Prince An had married Lin Luoling privately, and wanted to use the name of Yun Duo Mudan to thank His Majesty for the reward, mentioning that Prince An and Lin Luoling's private marriage was improper and violated the rules of the royal family.

The Empress wanted to meet Emperor Deshun several times, but the Emperor always said that he was busy with official duties and had no time, so he did not meet the Empress.

Lin Luoling could think of it. Yun Xi was so smart and was a eunuch who grew up in the palace, so he would only think more deeply.

Therefore, Lu Dong asked many questions but didn't get any of the things he wanted to know. The only thing he was sure of was that Emperor Deshun was really angry and did not acknowledge that Lin Luoling was the Princess of An.

Looking at the backs of Yun Xi and Lin Luoling leaving, Lu Dong snorted coldly and said with a curled lip: "The older they get, the harder they are to deal with. They are smarter than ghosts."

When they arrived in front of a majestic and grand palace, a eunuch ran down from the left side of the palace gate and bowed to Yun Xi, saying, "General Manager Yun is back? Your Majesty has already known that Prince An has returned to the capital."

Yun Xi nodded slightly and led Lin Luoling towards the palace gate.

Four silver-feathered guards wearing silver armor and two eunuchs stood on both sides of the palace gate. As soon as Yun Xi climbed the stairs, a eunuch announced at the door: "Your Majesty, Chief Steward Yun is back."

A majestic voice came from the temple, "Come in!"

With a creaky sound, the eunuch pushed open the door of the hall. Lin Luoling followed Yun Xi and walked into the hall with his head lowered.

When he reached the center of the hall, Yun Xi stamped his feet, knelt down and reported: "This old servant has brought His Royal Highness Prince An and Princess July back to the capital safely. This is Lin's daughter."

Lin Luoling knelt down and kowtowed, "I, the commoner Lin Luoling, pay my respects to Your Majesty."

"You go down first!" A majestic voice came from the front.

"Yes!"

Yun Xi stood up and left the hall.

The hall fell silent, with only the occasional sound of flipping papers being heard. Without Emperor Deshun's permission, Lin Luoling, who was kneeling on the ground, did not dare to stand up.

After a long while, the majestic voice sounded again: "Do you admit your guilt?"
