Lin Bixiang can be regarded as a big sin.

As usual, she brought the ointment left by the imperial doctor from the house and applied it. The people who serve are also the maids around them, but something happened to them.

Before Lin Qiantan returned to the Lin family, she had already heard the little maid sent by Zhimei talk about some things that were happening in the house.

Lin Bixiang immediately remembered to catch the maid who took the ointment for her and came to dispose of it, but when she found the little maid, the little maid was already a corpse that couldn't speak.

This style of acting made Lin Qiantan think of a man she was very familiar with.

But he shook his head again, as if he felt that his guess was a little funny and unlikely.

How can I say it...... If it is really that person, then Lin Bixiang is also the niece of blood relatives. No matter what, it won't ......

But this thing is really done by yin tenacity.

The people around Yin Wei are naturally loyal to Yin Wei. But...... They are first and foremost Yin family.

If Yin Tenacity gives orders, they will probably give priority to Yin Tenacity's orders.

As soon as the little maid died, in the Dongshan Marquis's mansion, a carrier pigeon was immediately released, flew over the head of the carriage that Lin Qiantan was riding, and went in the direction of hell.

Lin Qiantan had just returned to the outside of the mansion, lifted the curtain of the car and looked up, and the pigeon did not fly too far.

Lin Qiantan said: "Help me get out of the car, let's go in and see what's going on."

Lin Bixiang was unlucky, but this matter ...... Lin Qiantan frowned, no matter who did it, I'm afraid that the black cauldron will be carried by her.

As she walked inside, she could hear someone talking about Lin Bixiang every few steps.

Sure enough......

In Lin Bixiang's small courtyard, what Lin Qiantan saw as soon as she entered the door was Yin Wei's cannibalistic eyes. She couldn't help but think to herself, it's not that a family doesn't enter the door, Yin Wei's current appearance is really similar to Yin Tenacity.

All like snakes.

Lin Qiantan's brows furrowed even deeper.

Needless to say, Lin Qiantan also saw that Lin Bixiang's hands were black and rotten, even if they had been cleaned and drained, they still stink.

Who did it......

But what should be done is still to be done. She walked towards Lin Bixiang, and Lin Bixiang subconsciously picked up a medicine bowl at the head of her bed and threw it out. Lin Qiantan reacted quickly and dodged sideways.

As soon as Lin Qiantan came back, she went to Lin Bixiang's boudoir to watch the excitement. At this time, the appearance is done, and she doesn't want to stay and insult people for nothing.

She left, and no one accused her of being wrong. Something happened, and the Shen family and other elders also came to see it. Lin Bixiang was angry in her heart, and even the Shen family was offended.

Lin Yangde's little aunt also came to Lin Bixiang's boudoir to take a look, and after reading it, she happened to go outside with Lin Qiantan.

When there was no one else in the house, Lin Bixiang shed tears and said hatefully: "Mother, I want her to die a good death!"

The "she" here is naturally only Lin Qiantan.

From childhood to adulthood, others love to compare Lin Qiantan, a daughter of a cheap life, with her, even if she is injured, she has to be affected by her. This vicious-hearted slut not only calculates that she is burned, but also wants her to be ruined with both hands!

And now, she is on guard day and night, and finally succeeds.

Lin Bixiang doesn't say these things, Yin Wei also has to do them.

Her eyes flashed, and she said coldly: "Don't worry, your hand, and this body are destroyed, they are all her handiwork, and my mother will get it back for you sooner or later."

Before, it was she who had too many scruples.

Yin Wei's eyelids closed and opened, and when she opened them again, they were all cold, as if she had made up her mind. The thing she regretted the most in her life was that after Chu Ling's death, she cared about her reputation and spared Lin Qiantan's life.

Lin Bixiang saw her mother's appearance, and she was subconsciously happy. I have long heard the grandmother around me mention her mother's resourcefulness when she was young. Her mother, but she has killed people with her own hands.

Even her aunt said that her mother-in-law was worn away by the married life of the husband and wife, and the sharpness of her girlhood. The current Yin Wei, isn't there only a man in her eyes?

Yin Wei saw her daughter, so she took someone back, but compared with the cruel appearance when she was in her daughter's house, she walked on the road in the house after coming out, her face was warm, and she looked like something good had happened.

Only the mamma who was close to her had sharp eyes, glanced at it, and saw that her master's fingernails were also embedded in the flesh.

These things will be sent out of the Dongshan Hou Mansion by special people at any time to report to Yin Ren.

Yin Ren had just returned from the Northlands, and was still in the palace to attend the Imperial Study Meeting.

This time the emperor went out, and there were fewer wins and more losses. As soon as Emperor Tianlong came back, his butt was not yet hot, so he called a meeting of the ministers.

Yin tenacity, as the left prime minister, of course has to participate.

During a short break.

The little guy who came in to his ear to report the affairs of the family was clearly about the Dongshan Marquis Mansion, but when others asked about it jokingly, Yin Ren explained to others very calmly, saying that there was something going on outside.

As that bystander, the king of Zhongyi didn't ask much.

The affairs of the court, under the auspices of Gu Ping, were orderly. Except for one or two incidents during the period...... Something that doesn't make people very pleasant.

The assassination of the king of Zhongyi County on the street is one. Scholars criticize the imperial court is also one.

Those scholars who talk nonsense when they open their mouths, Emperor Tianlong doesn't care too much. But...... He can take his anger out on others.

Yin Qiang is this other person.

The trip to the Northland, others don't know, the emperor himself knows best, how many constraints the Yin family has given. The emperor even suspected that he also had a credit for the defeat of the Yin family.

Princess Jinhua even has the bloodline of the Yin family, and Emperor Tianlong is even more annoyed when he wants to come.

Yin Qiang has been slapped by the emperor for the first time for so many years.

"I'm leading the troops outside, it's good for you to be majestic behind! The concubine is an elder, and you dare to make her sick and unhappy, so angry that she has been lying in bed for several days? "It's about Lin Qiantan's hands being tortured.

Of course, Concubine Xiao is not so fragile. Lying in bed for a few days is another reason.

But who made the emperor's heart unhappy?

Yin Qiang knew that Emperor Tianlong was using these as excuses, but she still had to endure the grievances in her heart and knelt on the ground to plead guilty.

Even she was not happy in her heart. Who still doesn't know what he thinks in Yan Guang's heart.

Emperor Tianlong used this to slap Yin Qiang in the face, and in turn, he gave a lot of things to the Dongshan Marquis Mansion. The long one is the face of Concubine Xiao.

Naturally, they were all rewarded to Lin Qiantan. Gems and jade, silk and satin, the emperor is also not stingy.

When Lin Qiantan received this, she didn't feel anything, but Yin Wei's mother and daughter were so angry.

Is this an expression of an attitude by Emperor Tianlong? Originally, Yin Wei still took advantage of Yin Qiang's momentum to slap Lin Qiantan's face.

turned out to be the other way around, but it was all her?

Of course, the things given by Emperor Tianlong are excellent.

As soon as the eunuch who announced the decree left, the boxes of things were moved inside, and people were blushing.

Jin He smiled and picked up one of the strings of West Sea pearls and looked at it, and said, "Master, these things that Your Majesty has rewarded are different from those of other families." Looking at her, she smiled like a bottle of Maitreya Buddha.

Tribute, sometimes even if you have money, you don't have a place to get it. These things are precious, and they are not inferior to the treasures of some families.

Lin Qiantan said with a smile: "It's just that Your Majesty is using my business to slap the face of the person he really wants to hit."

Jinhe then asked who it was.

Lin Qiantan didn't explain much, because she didn't necessarily understand Jinhe.

Besides, these are not things that can be said casually in front of a room full of people coming and going in broad daylight.

After the Dongping County Palace was gone, the Yin clan, which had been put aside, surfaced and had an opposition to the imperial power. Yin is tough and ambitious, and will neither be willing to be a subordinate, nor sit still.

Emperor Tianlong's current support for Gu Ping's faction is not only an established national policy, but also an inevitable result of his own interests.

Most of the royal children have nothing to do, and Emperor Tianlong doesn't want to directly cultivate a prince to fill the vacancy left by Yan Shao's death, but a few princes did disappoint him.

These things, Ji Yue and the scenery are clearer, Wang Yuanzhao will tell them these things when he is idle, the two listened to Lin Qiantan say a few words simply, looked at each other, and understood each other a little.

There are several princes in the court, each with its own "characteristics".

In addition to the lost prince, among the adult princes......

Emperor Tianlong seems to be very partial to the five princes, but he can only say that he chooses the least rotten apple among several rotten apples. The five princes not only look the most like his father, but even their temperament is very similar.

It's even a little violent.

And the second prince is very talented, and his ability is not enough to undertake big things, and his mother family is not willing to support him. Although he has a little bit of face from Concubine Xiao, and he himself is the oldest among the princes, Emperor Tianlong is unwilling to choose him unless necessary.

The Third Prince was supposed to be a good choice. But although he has ability, he is not enterprising, he is addicted to depravity for the sake of a woman, he is indifferent, and he is not a person who can be trusted.

"How about the Four Princes?" Jinhe had to pester Lin Qiantan and said, Lin Qiantan had to say it briefly.

The Four Princes are even better, desperately stuffing some unpopular Yingying Yanyan into his backyard, and those who don't know still think that the Four Princes' Mansion is a brothel.

But just like that, there are still many people who want to drill into the Four Princes' Mansion.

For example, Yin Wei's mother and daughter.

Jinhe subconsciously asked: "Then aren't there a few princes left?"

Lin Qiantan said: "The rest are too young, and Your Majesty may not be able to afford to wait......"

Jinhe didn't understand: "How can you not afford to wait, Your Majesty is only in the prime of life this year." It's only forty.

Lin Qiantan smiled and said: "The words are good, but did you read the drama in vain?" Throughout the ages, how many emperors have lived past the age of fifty? ”

The country depends on the monarch. Wait for a few small ones to get up and see the ability and character, those big ones have already been full, and Emperor Tianlong will let go again, won't the court be chaotic?

Although, in Lin Qiantan's opinion, Emperor Tianlong's worries were purely superfluous.

After all, as long as the original history was not changed too much, the Great Shang Dynasty would definitely perish within a few years. What difference does it make if he makes a prince or not?

In short, don't take these things that Emperor Tianlong has rewarded you for.

Emperor Tianlong just slapped the Yin family here, but gave the fifth prince a sweet date over there. The future concubine of the fifth emperor, her father was originally just a five-grade clerk in the ministry, and the emperor Chrysostom said that he was promoted to three levels in a row.

However, this is also a reward for meritorious deeds.

Of course, Emperor Tianlong has just returned from the north, which is also a clever name, and he has given official positions to a group of officials from poor families.

The father of the would-be princess was just one of them.

Some people are rewarded, and of course some people are unlucky to suffer.

Lin Qiantan had already asked people to pay more attention to the movements of the Zhang family.

And sure enough, people sit at home, and the pot comes from heaven.

Zhang Luyuan is person didn't take a few steps out of the house, so he ate the rebuke of Emperor Tianlong. The already pitifully reduced Yulu was also completely deprived.

The Zheng Guo Mansion, which is already crumbling, is probably only left with military power in his hands now.

On the third day of Emperor Tianlong's return to Beijing, a small banquet was made in the palace, and some face-stoning people in Beijing would attend. The Zhang family of Zheng Guogong's Mansion is barely qualified to attend. It's just that the seats they sit on have been moving out compared to last year, and they are about to move to the position where the cold wind blows at the entrance of the palace.

Zhang Yan herself can see it: "Your Majesty is just waiting for his father to hand over power."

Zhang Yan is talking to Lin Qiantan.

At the banquet, there were only a few people left who dared to get too close to the Zhang family. Even Gu Qingxuan was restrained by Han Yanqing and did not let her come.

Lin Qiantan also took advantage of no one to say a few words to Zhang Yan.

On the throne, Emperor Tianlong sat there looking very interested. Looks like he's in a good mood. Lin Qiantan just heard that the Diao people of the Xia Dynasty in the north had rebelled, and they had already passed the good news back.

Counting this time, a group of new favorite courtiers from a poor family gathered around him and talked to him. He has a lot of people at his disposal, so it's no wonder he's happy.

In contrast, those officials from families have been left out a lot.

Also includes the Chu family.

Among those new favorites, there are two or three of them who are from humble families who were born as military generals. Anyway, there is another one among them, the one recommended by Lin Qiantan after leaving the back door.

Someone comes in, someone has to move their butt and get out of the way. Obviously, the Zhang family is the one who wants to give up his position.

In the hands of the Zhang family, there are still 50,000 soldiers and horses.

Lin Qiantan smiled and said nothing, Zhang Luyuan regarded the talisman in his hand as a life-saving card, how could he be willing to hand it over. If you hand it over, it is equivalent to being slaughtered by others.

But if he doesn't pay it, the emperor will hold a grudge even more, and it will be liquidated after the fact in the future. It's a dilemma.

Zhang Yan's clothes are still the same as last year's. The Zhang family smashed pots and sold iron to maintain face, and even the ancestral things in the house could not be saved.

Lin Qiantan is probably the only person who helps the Zhang family the most except for Zhang Yingru.

Zhang Yan is a great kindness, but Lin Qiantan is ashamed: "I have no kindness to you, if you don't blame me, I will be content."

It's not the first time Lin Qiantan has said such a thing, and Zhang Yan is not surprised.

She has always been very calm about the decline of the family, and the Zhang family is now just paying the price for Zhang Luyuan's reckless choice that day. The family is still alive, it is already very good, so why expect too much. Besides, it's good that her father has nothing to do now, so he doesn't have to think about something unrealistic.

She still wonders why King Qi helped that day. The two families are not related, how can there be kindness from the sky.

The two stood in the corner talking, and looked at it, Zhang Luyuan was holding a glass of wine, and he was very flattering in front of King Qi, as if he was doing something hot and cold.

King Qi looked unabashedly impatient.

Lin Qiantan really knows the inside story. But there were some things that she really didn't have a chance to talk to anyone about.

King Qi was the younger brother of Emperor Tianlong. When his eldest brother and second brother competed for the throne, he decisively chose the second brother, and also exchanged for more than ten years of glory and wealth.

But if people have been rich for a long time, they will also have a deterioration of their hearts.

Looting people's wealth, stealing the treasury, and collecting money as if the king of Qi was dying, for the gardens he had never been to once or twice since he had built, and the beauties in the backyard who had been scavenged from everywhere.

The brothers clearly settled the accounts, and the king of Qi lost the money in the treasury, and it coincided with the time when Emperor Tianlong went out to fight against the Rong country to prepare for the money. Emperor Tianlong checked the accounts, and King Qi demolished the east wall everywhere to make up the west wall, which was also a result of Lin Qiantan's prediction.

Over there, King Qi was looking at Zhang Luyuan with a disgusted expression.

What happened in the Mulan paddock last year, it was because he asked for help, so he used the gold medal order arrow to save the Zhang family. At that time, in order to fill the huge hole in the treasury, he was secretly raising money. Someone opened the door and took the initiative to send the news to him, saying that they could help him with this astronomical amount of money.

However, the premise is to borrow his gold medal to make the arrow use.

So of course King Qi would not have a good impression of the Zhang family before he suddenly took action to protect the Zhang family.

Not only did he not have a good feeling, but as soon as he saw the Zhang family, he thought that he was half used and half threatened to use the gold medal arrow, which was very unpleasant. Because of that incident, Emperor Tianlong was also dissatisfied with him.

Lin Qiantan also knew that King Qi had been hiding from outsiders and had some private actions to track down her, the owner of the money that day.

It's just that she has hidden it well so far, and she hasn't let King Qi see anything at all.

Zhang Luyuan was bored with himself, ate a closed door soup from King Qi, and walked away stupidly. After Lin Qiantan finished reading over there, she turned her head and just wanted to tell Zhang Yan about the events of the day, when a person named Lin Qiantan who had a slight headache over there came over.

Princess Jinhua dressed up today and dressed very luxuriously and movingly. Dress jewelry is still those dress jewelry, but the temperament of the person is very different from when she was not married.

Jinhua's eyebrows are full of a kind of charm that boudoir girls do not have, and there is also some mature charm between walking.

However, the words that come out seem bitter and scathing, and they brutally destroy this beauty.

"What are the whispers that my cousin and Miss Zhang are talking about in this corner, so that this palace can also listen to it?" As he spoke, the man had already come to him.

Lin Qiantan and Zhang Yan stopped what they said very tacitly, and gave Jinhua a salute.

Lin Qiantan said with a smile, but she didn't say anything, just said something about the ancestors of Zhongyuan in July.

This was mentioned by Emperor Tianlong in his opening remarks just now. They would not be taboo when they said this at this time.

Zhang Yan also cooperated with Lin Qiantan and changed the topic.

Jin Huaming knew that they were not telling the truth, but there was no way to expose it.

Jinhua smiled: "Speaking of which, the memorial is a big deal." Lin Qiantan's biological mother has passed away for many years, so it is reasonable to think about it.

However, Jinhua's smile really made people can't help but feel a little unpleasant.

Princess Jinhua has changed a lot.

A trip to Rongguo made her makeup thicker and her dress became gorgeous, obviously she still had the same face, but she felt a little more angry. Who can know what she has experienced in less than a year of life in Rongguo.

She was also just left out in front of Chu Jiang, and she came to Lin Qiantan to find a sense of existence.

Jinhua still looks like a well-deserved princess in this palace, but the glory of the past is gone. Just now she came all the way, and even a little eunuch with some powerful positions could look down on her.

The current palace people will brand her as the queen of Rong when they mention her in private.

Lin Qiantan skillfully dealt with Jinhua.

Jinhua looked at the girl in front of her who was still glamorous, but only a year or two younger than her, and was jealous in her heart. The words spoken will not be friendly and polite.

She has now returned to the capital as she wished, but Chu Jiang is even more reluctant to keep his eyes on her.

She thinks that Chu Jiang dislikes her for being touched by other men.

After all, this is not a celebration party, and everyone knows that the imperial court is actually undefeated and defeated. Of course, no one dared to say it to their face.

There were many female dependents who Lin Qiantan didn't know sitting on the table. Their expressions were jerky and restrained, and their clothes were rough and rustic, as if they were very unaccustomed to such occasions.

These are all wives from poor backgrounds, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they have never seen the world. On the other hand, there are those who are originally powerful.

The people on both sides are clearly divided. The clothes are gorgeous on one side, and the clothes are worn out on the other.

Although these women flew up the branches and became phoenixes because of their respective husbands, they still felt inferior in their hearts in the face of the group of rich and noble people opposite.

They still have a long way to go.

Just thinking about it, I saw someone being maliciously collided by the female relatives of the powerful family, but instead took the initiative to apologize humbly. From this, you can peek at the whole leopard through a spot.

Jinhua faced Lin Qiantan, it was like a punch on cotton, and after saying a few words, Lin Qiantan was not angry at all. She felt bored, so she walked away. It's just that there is still some unwillingness on his face.

Lin Qiantan looked at her back, and then turned to talk to Zhang Yan.

On the stage, there is a group of dancing girls rushing in, dancing to attract everyone, even Emperor Tianlong also watched with relish. Beauty is like a flower, a smile is like the moon, Lin Qiantan has been waiting for a long time, and finally appeared belatedly.

In her previous life, she became the demon concubine of the Tianlong Emperor, and at this time, she danced in a group of dancing girls.
