Li was naturally very touched, but when he saw Yan Ling’s expression, he was a little scared.
After changing their clothes, the two of them walked towards the ante-room. The banquet had yet to begin and everyone was wandering around.
When Elder Yan renovated the residence, he had clearly spent his time decorating it. The courtyard was exquisite and luxurious, comparable to the back garden of the palace.
Madam Yan had to prepare a variety of meals and prepare gifts for the ladies and ladies from various families.
These gifts couldn’t be too expensive. After all, their conditions couldn’t be accepted, but these gifts couldn’t be too shabby and make them stingy.
She pushed her back and walked over to Consort Lin. “Mommy, let the little girl walk with you.”
Concubine Lin naturally wanted to wander around the residence, so she nodded.
The most famous person in the residence was the spring water. There was a lotus pool in the back garden, surrounded by rockery and a spring beside the rockery.
It was said that the spring water was holy water. After drinking it, it could be beautifully nourished, and this was also the reason why Elder Yan bought this land and covered a residence.
Those who came to the residence must come over to take a look at the spring.
Yan Shuang led the two of them to the side. As she walked, Yan Shuang introduced her to the surrounding scenery. After Imperial Concubine Lin looked at her pay no heed to, she asked, “You’re the second lady of the Yan family. Is that Yan Ling’s sister?”
Even though Imperial Concubine Lin was just a servant girl, she was clear about the identity of the commoners in the residence.
When she saw that Concubine Lin was together, she still thought about speaking louder and louder, which made her feel displeased. However, she said respectfully, “The two of us are sisters of our own people. Although they don’t look very alike, many people say that my sister’s appearance is even more beautiful.”
Concubine Lin turned her head and examined her frost. She couldn’t help but say “Mhm”, but she still suppressed it.
It was at this moment that Concubine Lin saw a man walking towards them from the corner of her eyes. Then, he flashed in a direction not too far away.
It was Liang He.
Liang He hurriedly walked in front of them, as if he hadn’t noticed them at all.
She suddenly remembered that the last time she had toasted Liang He, the atmosphere between Liang He and Yan Ling was very different.
When she thought that Liang He might have gone to see Ling Zhang this time, she felt even more upset and wanted to follow her.
However, she was caught by Yan Shen and said respectfully, “Mommy, there’s a remote area in the yard. It’s useless if you go there. Why don’t you continue walking with me?”
Concubine Lin lowered her head and saw Yan Shuang clutching her wrist tightly.
She had only been a sissy not too long ago, so she didn’t know how happy a girl’s family was to her.
Concubine Lin couldn’t say anything else, so she could only follow her and continue to wander around.
At this time, the prefectural lord of Zhaoyan had already led thirteen or two people around the residence, as if looking for someone.
When they reached the fountain, they saw a friendly smile on Concubine Lin’s face. She seemed to be patiently listening to Yan Shuang’s words.
Was this woman still in the mood? She was about to walk over to Consort Lin. The Thirteen beside her didn’t know what had happened, so she quickly grabbed the head of Zhaoyan and whispered, “Your Highness, what are you doing?”
The prefectural lord of Zhaoyan had a hot temper. He didn’t mention the not pass on to others what one is called upon to do, and he was even jealous of him. Whenever he encountered something unfair, he had to interrupt.
The Thirteen might admire the prefectural lord of Zhaoyan’s temperament, but after a long time, she would be at a disadvantage after facing these women in the imperial palace.
The prefectural lord of Zhaoyan avoided the thirteen’s hold and walked to Consort Lin with a cold face. After he sized her up and down, he pretended to bow and said to her, “I heard that you were sister’s servant girl before. You flew up and turned into a Phoenix. You’re talking about you, right?”
No matter what, Imperial Consort Lin was now the Imperial Consort. Although the prefectural lord of Zhaoyan had lived in the imperial palace since he was young, he was only a prefectural master and his father was the Prince.
It was inappropriate for her to say this in front of a concubine.
When the Thirteen saw this, he felt refreshed, but he still walked over nervously. He grabbed Zhaoyan’s sleeve and said to her, “Why did you say this?” Let’s hurry up and leave first?
Chu Lin stared coldly at Zhao Yan and asked, “So what?” Flying up the branch and turning into a Phoenix was also relying on my real ability, and it wasn’t stolen. Why do you look down on me?
How could Chu Lin be righteous?
The prefectural lord of Zhaoyan was even more furious. She said, “You are just a servant girl. You should have obediently served my sister, but now you are so obsessed with climbing to the position of the Imperial Consort. Have you ever thought about how to face your mistress in the future?” Your Master is the daughter of the prince, and you are already on the same generation as her father. Don’t you feel embarrassed? In the future, how do you want my sister to face someone who used to be her servant girl, but now you have to respectfully call him Mrs. Lin?
Chu Lin also knew what she meant when he heard The Governor of Zhaoyan say.
However, it was because she was the servant girl of the County Master of Luoyan before, and now she had become the person they had to respect when they saw her.
A smile of pay no heed to appeared on Chu Lin’s lips. She thought that everyone in the imperial palace was a circumspect of advance gradually and entrench oneself at every step, but she never imagined that the prefectural lord of Zhaoyan would be like a child who would say such things in front of her.
She said calmly, “I came here purely because of my own ability. Besides, even if I became the Empress, the prefectural lord of Luo Yan is still my mistress. I have never forgotten. It was her who brought me to the capital city that I had these opportunities. My Master didn’t even jump, so why are you doing this here for nothing?
She had taken the wrong path from the beginning. She shouldn’t have been involved in the battle between these young officials and families, nor should she have become a mother directly in the reaching heaven in a single bound.
A woman with no status or seniority would definitely be at a disadvantage if she wanted to get entangled with these women who had been thinking about how to work.
However, she didn’t care about this. She thought that becoming a mother now was different from before, and she could do what one wishes without restraint.
But she didn’t want to see how she would end up after losing the newfound feeling from the Emperor.
She lived around the Emperor. Once the Emperor took back his little love, they would face a desolate life.
