The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 929: Concubine Selection 2
On February 24th of Tai'an [-], a group of people appeared outside Yu Shilin's house.

Among the guards in the middle, officials from the Ministry of Rituals appeared outside the gate of the Lin family's mansion holding a box wrapped in bright yellow silk cloth.

When he learned that there was an imperial decree, Lin Guanhai, the master of the Lin family, was in a hurry because he hadn't received any news in advance.

But it can't be blamed on him. A month ago, he led the performance, admonishing the emperor's seniority orderly, and should follow the ancestral system to order the nine princes to be crowned kings and vassals.

Because of his memorandum, a new round of struggle for the succession was triggered, and finally the emperor's compromise that persisted for several years.

But because of this memorial, Lin Guanhai was dismissed from office by His Majesty the Emperor, and then he was asked to contemplate his mistakes behind closed doors at home.

The emperor can't govern his officials, so it's very easy to deal with him, a little censor.

So Lin Guanhai stayed at home for a full month without any foreign officials seeing him.

"Father, the imperial decree has arrived, I'm afraid something bad will happen!" Lin Xiuneng's voice trembled.

After getting dressed, Lin Guanhai calmly said: "The left and right are just dismissed from office and returned to their hometowns. If the emperor wants to kill people, he should send someone from the supervisor!"

At this time, Lin Xiuneng couldn't help but feel admiration for his father to be so calm.

"do not be afraid!"

Patting the eldest son on the shoulder, Lin Guanhai walked out on his own, all the family members outside were waiting for him.

When he came to the gate, Lin Guanhai realized that it was an official from the Ministry of Rites who announced the decree, which made him a little puzzled.

"Criminal Lin Guanhai, ask my emperor for his safety!"

"Saint Gong'an!"

After reading this sentence, the Xuanzhi officer walked into the mansion, and the incense table for receiving the decree had been set up in the courtyard, and all the family members of men and women knelt down on the ground.

When the decree official took the throne, Lin Guanhai had also returned, and knelt in front of the family members.

The decree official opened the box, took out the imperial decree from inside, spread it out and read aloud: "Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, Zhiyue..."

"I heard that a gentleman is virtuous, and he needs to be virtuous..."

"Emperor Jiuzixun, now with a weak crown, I follow your words, if you want to make him come out, I will seal it..."

Hearing these words, Lin Guanhai was full of doubts, why mention these things in the imperial decree?
"Ran Xun was young, and I was worried about his being in the fiefdom. He lost his distance by acting recklessly, so I chose a virtuous and good person to accompany him..."

Could it be that the emperor meant to let himself go to the Chief History Department of Prince Yong's Mansion?
Thinking of this, Lin Guanhai felt a little heavy, and he hoped to shine in the imperial censor.

Just listen to the Xuanzhi officer continue to read: "Now the palace and the ministers are ready, but the inner house has not yet been completed..."

After reading this, the Xuanzhi officer glanced at the daughter of the Lin family in the crowd, and shook his head indistinctly.

"Yu Zhen heard that there is a daughter in Qing's family, who has little knowledge of etiquette and goes to school, so she can be a good match, so I chose her as the side concubine of King Yong!"

"Kin this!"

Good guy, I said a lot of nonsense before the imperial decree, but I made such a big turn in the end.

The emperor chose his own daughter to be the side concubine of King Yong, this...

Thinking of this, Lin Guanhai felt as if a knife was piercing his heart. He had 1 objections to this marriage.

But the emperor's order cannot be violated, even if he doesn't want to, he can only accept this result.

As a minister in the same hall, the Xuanzhi officer felt a little sympathetic to Lin Guanhai, knowing that he was revenged by the emperor.

But what if I know?It's not such a big event as Yi Chu, it's impossible for someone to complain about the Lin family.

Because there is nothing unfair about it, the emperor should give the marriage to Long En.

"Father...it's time to receive the order!" Lin Xiuneng reminded.

Strictly speaking, no response at this time is disrespectful, and it is a serious crime to kill the whole family.

But Lin Guanhai still didn't move. At this moment, he was resentful. He was loyal to the court, but he didn't expect to get such a result.

"Master Lin, it's time to thank you!" The official reminded, he didn't want to see the Lin family suffer.

"Father...thank you!"

This sentence was said by a girl behind, and she was Lin Jingyu who was given a marriage.

Looking back at his daughter, Lin Guanhai only saw her smiling, which made him even more distressed.

"I... take the order, thank you!" Lin Guanhai kowtowed.

It is related to the lives of the whole family, which prevents him from being impulsive.

Handing over the imperial decree to Lin Guanhai, the officer reminded: "Master Lin, the Ministry of Rites will recruit you in two days, you must be ready!"

"Also, the emperor has pardoned you, you can sit in court at the Metropolitan Procuratorate tomorrow!"

When the decree officer left, looking at the imperial decree in his hand, Lin Guanhai had mixed feelings.

Walking forward, Lin Jingyu squeezed out a smile and said, "Father... the daughter has received the favor of the emperor, so that she can always be with King Yong, and enjoy endless glory and wealth. Father should be happy for his daughter!"

But this scene made Lin Guanhai even more distressed.

The atmosphere at the scene was a bit weird, and the servants of the Lin family were very surprised, how could this day's big good thing be the same as going to the grave?
"You all step back!"

Aware of the thoughts of the servants, Lin Xiuneng let them back down, unwilling to let them see more.

After these people left, Lin Xiuneng walked to his father and helped him to the inner house.

After sitting down in the main hall and confirming that there were no outsiders, Lin Guanhai said sadly, "Yu'er...it's my father who is sorry for you!"

"You have both good character and learning, both talent and appearance. You should be worthy of being a good son-in-law, husband and teacher, but because of your father, you went to be the side concubine of King Yong..."

Seeing that his father said more and more "excessive", Lin Xiuneng immediately interrupted: "Father, be careful that the wall has ears!"

"Why do walls have ears?" Lin Guanhai was furious.

Lin Jingyu took a step forward, took the teacup and handed it to her father, saying: "Father, thunder, rain and dew are all a gift from heaven, and you taught your daughter this truth!"

"The father complained about the grievances for his daughter, and the daughter was very grateful, but the daughter didn't feel wronged!"

Sighing, Lin Guanhai felt depressed, but stopped talking.

"Father, drink tea!" Lin Jingyu said with a smile.

From the beginning to the end, she behaved calmly, but in fact she also knew herself.

As Lin Guanhai said, as a girl who is excellent in all aspects, Lin Jingyu naturally wants to marry a good man.

But now that she was suddenly selected into the palace, but she was still the side concubine of the vassal, not even a regular wife, it's no wonder that Lin Jingyu felt better.

But she is a smart person, knowing that this result cannot be changed, so she can only accept it, and she has to persuade her family to accept it.

Now she only hopes that King Yong is the type she likes, although this possibility is extremely slim.

When the three people in the main hall were talking, someone outside the main hall eavesdropped, and it was their servant.

This person was coerced and lured in the morning to find out what Lin Guanhai did and said every day, so he quietly hid outside the house and eavesdropped.

This person was confused about the conversation just now, but he wrote down the general content.

Around noon, the servant took a chance and went outside to find a connector.

This guy told the man exactly what he heard and saw.

"Man, that's all I know!"

The "connector" threatened: "I'd better forget about what happened today, and you will die if you tell me!"

"The villain understands, the villain understands!" The servant hurriedly boasted.

"get out!"

"Yes Yes Yes!"

When the servant left, the so-called hero immediately turned and left, eventually reaching a mansion and relaying the news to another person.
