Xie Mulin was amazed to hear it.

She has come from modern times, she has watched a lot of TV and movies, news newspapers and other things, and she thinks she is well-informed, but she can compare her with the ancients how dirty her heart is, and she will immediately bow down.

She couldn't help but say to Xiao Rui: "Jiang Shilang is amazing, you are also amazing, if he really thinks so, maybe even the Cao family didn't find out, but you found out early." Seeing it so clearly, it shows that you know his mind very well. "Maybe it's like Jiang Shilang, a person with a heart.

Xiao Rui immediately said: "It's not difficult for smart people to see it, I can see it, but I'm not interested in paying attention to it, it's just like an anecdote, and I'm just chatting with Second Sister Xie for a while." I'm about to go north, and there are big things to do next, it's too late to fight for my future, who has time to care about the Jiang family's thoughts? ”

Xie Mulin glanced at him with a smile: "Since you say so, I will believe it for the time being." I really don't have any thoughts about Jiang Yuliang, and you don't have to keep an eye on him. To be honest with you, the Jiang brothers are just strangers to me, and whether their fate is good or bad has nothing to do with me. If they are dragged into the quagmire by the Cao family in the future, or are used by their parents as victims of the struggle for power and profit, I will just sigh and use it as a pastime when talking and laughing with others as gossip and anecdotes. ”

Xiao Rui smiled a little embarrassedly and touched his nose: "I really don't mean anything else, it's just ...... When talking about the news of the Cao family, he just mentioned it in passing. Second sister Xie, don't get me wrong. ”

It doesn't matter if there is a misunderstanding or not. The suitor was a little cautious, and Xie Mulin could understand. She asked if there was any other news about the Cao family? Xiao Rui said: "I am still busy with the wedding of the prince of the East Palace, and the prince's entry into the court to participate in politics after the wedding." This is the most important thing for the Cao family at the moment. As long as the crown prince performs well after entering the court, his position will be more stable. Even if the Cao family has to keep filial piety for three years and recover after three years, they can rest easy. ”

The Cao family understands this truth, and it is impossible for the Lin family not to understand it.

Don't look at the Lin family who suffered a big loss in the matter of the water bandits, and now they are still facing all kinds of doubts with suspicion, but they have never thought of stopping in their hearts. If the second prince can snatch the crown prince's throne, the Lin family will be prosperous in the future!

The Cao family can be prominent today, isn't it all because of the queen and the prince? Wealth and wealth are in danger, not to mention that they are favored by the emperor like Zhaoyi Niangniang and the second prince, which is where the sacred heart is, and there is no danger at all, but it is just to find a way for the emperor to get rid of the Cao family with dignity, and abolish the reserve after the abolition, but not subject to the opposition of the courtiers? Even if it's not easy to think about, it just takes some time.

At this time, if you really withdraw your hand because you are afraid, you will really call the crown prince to succeed to the throne in the future, and Queen Cao will be the queen mother, with the temper of their mother and son, not to mention that Lin Zhaoyi and the second prince have no way to live, even if the Lin family is full, they will not survive! One is rich and noble, and the other is the death of the He family, and the fool doesn't know how to choose.

Therefore, although the emperor ordered the Lin family to keep a low profile for the time being, the Lin family still had to continue to make trouble in secret and cause trouble for the crown prince and the Cao family.

For example, at the wedding of His Royal Highness the Prince, Lin Zhaoyi had the intention of making ghosts. It is said that Empress Cao was strictly guarded, and Lin Zhaoyi only showed some signs on her side, so she asked her to take it. Fortunately, it was just a small sprout, and there was no obvious sinister intention, Lin Zhaoyi's people prevaricated with a careless sentence, received forty boards, and was kicked out of the Internal Affairs Office, but Lin Zhaoyi was not affected by anything. Empress Cao complained to the emperor, and after the emperor asked about the situation, he felt that Empress Cao was making too much of a fuss, and it might just be an accidental accident. Empress Cao was half angry when she heard it, but she was helpless to take Lin Zhaoyi.

When Xiao Rui told Xie Mulin about this, he commented: "Empress Cao is too anxious, since she has discovered Lin Zhaoyi's abnormality, she only needs to let people keep an eye on it, and when Lin Zhaoyi has made a big deal and has empirical evidence, she will sue the emperor again, and arrest it, even the emperor will no longer be able to favor Lin Zhaoyi." Besides, if Lin Zhaoyi really has the heart to do something at the prince's wedding, failing this time does not mean that she will not try again, and her actions will only be more secretive when the time comes. Empress Cao may not be able to find the clue again, and when something happens, it will be too late to save it. This queen mother has always been an impatient, she can't rub sand in her eyes, and she is easily impulsive. But if she is a little patient and soft, I am afraid that the emperor will not be so disgusted with her now. ”

Xie Mulin didn't comment on the attitude of the emperor's wife towards the little wife, but only asked: "Is the Lin family just planning to make some small moves at the prince's wedding?" But what is the substantive significance of this approach, except for making the prince lose face and making several officials of the Ministry of Rites unlucky? ”

Xiao Rui laughed when he heard it: "It's really worthy of Second Sister Xie, and I understand the limitations of this plan as soon as I hear it." Helpless, Lin Zhaoyi and the Lin family are in such a pattern. Otherwise, how do you think they would have done that lawsuit against the bandits? ”

Xie Mulin asked, "What about the second prince?" ”

"The second prince is still old-tempered." Xiao Rui smiled, "I can't help the prince, so I will go to find the bad luck of the prince's family." ”

The second prince calculated the Zhao family at the beginning, and the Zhao family had not yet produced the crown princess at that time. Now that the Xue family clearly has a crown princess, and she will get married soon, how can the second prince look at his family pleasing to the eye? Even a famous family with real power like the Zhao family, he said that if he provoked it, he would provoke it, and the Xue family only had one old lady Xue who could support the lintel, so he didn't take the Xue family seriously.

Recently, the children of the Xue family are complaining to others, it is said that when they go out, they are often targeted by the second prince and his dog's legs, and they are embarrassed in every way, some people are beaten, some people have swollen faces, some people have lost face, some people have lost money, and the most unlucky one has not only broken his leg, but also lost his official position. Although it was just a petty official position, it was also the hope of a child of the Xue family with mediocre talents, and it was destroyed like this, not to mention how sad the Xue family was.

But what can they do with the second prince? The other party is a golden branch and jade leaf, and he is using the child's family as an excuse to make trouble and find trouble in the Xue family, can he still sue him seriously? Even if it is a lawsuit, with the posture that the emperor has always favored the second prince, the Xue family may not be able to seek justice.

And the eldest lady Xue who was about to marry into the East Palace, her parents pleaded with Mrs. Xue and his wife, saying that their daughter was about to become the crown princess, and she couldn't offend the royal family at this time.

No one knows what the emperor thinks, but the queen is very dissatisfied with Miss Xue's style. However, the Xue family has to swallow her anger by herself, and she doesn't like the choice of daughter-in-law, so she naturally won't interfere much. Mrs. Xue mentioned a few words to the officials of the Lin family, but the Lin family said that the second prince Jin Zhi Yuye had an idea, and they didn't dare to talk too much.

Old Master Xue was helpless, and he didn't dare to really offend the Lin family, even if the children and grandchildren of the family really fought back and injured the people of the Lin family, he still had to let his children and grandchildren come to the door to make amends. But such a thing is not enough to endure alone. He also privately handed a message to the crown prince, hoping that the prince could discipline the second prince as the eldest brother, so as not to let the second prince stare at the Xue family anymore.

The crown prince reprimanded the second prince once, but the second prince didn't take it to heart and continued to do his own thing, and the prince couldn't beat his younger brother, what else? He sued the emperor, and the emperor only reprimanded him a few words, and did not punish his younger brother severely. He thought that he had lost face, and when he turned around and heard Old Master Xue mention this matter again, he began to feel that the Xue family was in trouble.

Before her granddaughter married into the East Palace, Mrs. Xue felt cold first.
