Lin Chengyu was silent for a moment before saying, "To tell you the truth, when I knew about this, I went to the palace to ask the emperor for help, but this matter involves two countries, and the Crown Prince of Qianxiang is so sincere, so the emperor can't refuse her face."

Grandmother Jia didn't know about this, and was a little surprised when she heard this. She thought that her grandson was not so cold-hearted. "But what about Baoyu? He has been spoiled since he was a child. How can he go to Qianxiang Country to serve women?"

Who made Jia Baoyu act so gentle and considerate in front of Shen Li that day in order to show off? Lin Chengyu winked at him several times, but Jia Yuanchun thought she was jealous of Jia Baoyu.

What's more, Jia Yuanchun has made things difficult for the Lin family time and time again, so Lin Chengyu must have nothing better to do than to meddle in the Jia family's affairs.

"That day when Second Brother Bao entered the palace, I felt something was wrong as soon as I saw the look in the eyes of the Crown Prince of Qianxiang." Lin Chengyu sighed and said helplessly, "But Second Brother Bao didn't understand even though I hinted at it several times. Even the Imperial Concubine didn't understand it either. She even urged Second Brother Bao to show off more. I really don't know what she was thinking."

He “didn’t know”, but Grandmother Jia knew something.

It's just to steal the limelight in front of the emperor.

"The emperor has refused to see me during this period. I think he is afraid that I will plead for Brother Bao again." Lin Chengyu looked like she was thinking about the Jia family and said sincerely, "Grandmother, why don't you find someone who can see the emperor? This matter can't be delayed any longer."

If it drags on any longer, Shen Li will take Jia Baoyu back to Qianxiang Country, and the people in the Jia family will just wait to cry.

Grandmother Jia thought for a moment and asked, "Prince Linhuai is deeply favored by the emperor. Can you invite him..."

Lin Chengyu: “…”

There is such a big imperial concubine in the imperial city, can this old lady really not remember her?

"I'm afraid that won't work." Lin Chengyu looked embarrassed. "The emperor knows that the prince and I have a good relationship, so he even didn't see the prince these days."

Grandmother Jia was extremely worried. This wasn't working and that wasn't working. Originally, the Jia family had no useful people, and now there was a Ning'an Marquis. She had thought that she would have someone who could have a say when something happened, but she didn't expect that he would be useless.

Regardless of whether what Lin Chengyu said was true or false, Jia's mother could not confirm it, and could only say: "In this case, we can only let the imperial concubine take action."

She originally thought that if Lin Chengyu could get the job done, there would be no need to trouble the Imperial Concubine. The Imperial Concubine was alone in the deep palace and had a hard time moving around, and she really didn't want to let her worry about family matters.

But this time, I have tried all the methods I can think of, and they either don't work or are useless. I am afraid it will not work without the help of the Imperial Concubine.

Thinking of this, Jia's mother's attitude towards Lin Chengyu was not as warm as before, and she said in a light tone: "I am tired too, you should go back too."

Lin Chengyu didn't care how she viewed herself. She seemed to be still worried about Jia Baoyu's affairs. "Then you should have a good rest."

If we go back now, we can just catch the fish.

Grandmother Jia had closed her eyes, and it was not known whether she heard these words or not. Yuanyang seemed to think it was not serious, so she explained a few words when she sent Lin Chengyu out.

"The old lady is also worried. She has been restless these past few days because of Baoyu's matter and she has become much more haggard." Yuanyang was grateful to Lin Chengyu for saving her that day, and there was a little more enthusiasm in her words.

Lin Chengyu didn't say anything, just smiled and left.

Yuanyang looked at his back and sighed slightly. Why does the old lady do this? It's not like the Jia family really has no one else to use. But they have to rely on the Lin family. Whenever something happens, they want the Marquis to take the lead. Anyone would be upset.

Besides, the Marquis did contribute, it’s just that the Emperor refused to see him. Besides, what can he do about the Emperor’s decision?

When Lin Chengyu arrived at the door, the carriage that was supposed to be waiting there was gone. He raised his eyebrows slightly, and was almost amused by the Jia family's rogue behavior.

Not only do you not allow them to do things for you, you even don’t allow them to ride in your car?

Lai Da had been waiting at the door. When he saw him coming out, he hurried over to greet him and said with a wry smile, "My Lord, the Second Wife had to go out for something just now, so..."

So is it possible that such a huge Rongguo Mansion only has one carriage?

Who would believe it?

Even Lai Da himself didn't believe it, but when Mrs. Wang left, she sternly warned Lai Da not to let Lin Chengyu ride in the car. Lai Da didn't want to offend Lin Chengyu, but he had no choice.

Mrs. Wang has become increasingly harsh towards her servants recently. It seems as if her former kindness was a thing of her past life. She always mentions the Imperial Concubine, and even Lai Da doesn't dare to say anything.

Ningrong Street was bustling with people, and when the people saw a young man with outstanding appearance and demeanor standing in front of the gate of Rongguo Mansion, their eyes widened.

Seeing that Lai Da, the chief steward of Rongguo Mansion, had a strange look on his face, they thought there would be something exciting to watch, so they pricked up their ears and listened carefully.

Lin Chengyu sneered in his heart. Did Mrs. Wang think that without the Rongguo Mansion's carriage, he would have to go back in shame?

You're really out of your mind.

He was not annoyed, and said calmly: "It's fine with me, but if my grandmother knew that this is how you treat guests, I think she would be angry."

Lai Da knew it very well. He was about to go inside to report it, but was stopped by Mrs. Wang, who said that whoever dared to let the insiders know would have to watch out for himself.

When the people heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up, because there really was something exciting to watch.

Lin Chengyu added: "If I had known that your house didn't have enough carriages, I should have taken my own carriage when I came here, so I wouldn't have to walk back."

Lai Da hunched his body, feeling the sting of the people's probing gazes. He wished he could cover Lin Chengyu's mouth and beg him to stop talking. If he continued, Rongguo Mansion would become a laughing stock in the capital.

But since Mrs. Wang dared to do such a thing, Lin Chengyu would naturally accompany her to the end.

"It's also because I'm useless and can't do anything for the mansion. My second aunt is angry with me and doesn't want to see me. It's understandable." Lin Chengyu sighed helplessly, "But I have done my best this time, and I have a clear conscience."

The people began to whisper. They had just heard Lai shouting "Marquis". They thought it must be the Marquis Ning'an who had rescued the emperor twice.

After they discussed it, they guessed that it was about Jia Baoyu's marriage, and the Jia family had asked Ning'an Hou for help, but the imperial decree had already been issued, and Ning'an Hou had no choice, so the Jia family acted like this.

Although Lin Chengyu looked helpless, she did not show any anger on her face. The people could not help but feel that the Jia family was going too far in doing so.

They invite people when they are needed, but don't even let them ride in the car when they are not needed. This is really too much.

Lai Da was being pointed at by the people. In the past, he would have sternly scolded them and asked them to disperse, but Lin Chengyu was still here, so he didn't dare to say a word. He just felt that something bad was going to happen.
