Not to mention Lin Jia, even First Princess Pingning who was resting on the soft pillow sat up straight.

The child's eyes were clear and bright. With a single glance, one could tell that he was extremely intelligent!

The Grand Madam was even more anxious, he ordered the Nanny Chen to pull Lin Shu up and asked him: "What's going on? Is there something wrong? "She's usually a very thoughtful child. I believe that she arrived late because she's not feeling well. Good child, don't cry."

After saying that, she looked at Mu Lan and instructed her in a low voice, "Since Fourth Miss is not feeling well, then close the door. Don't let Fourth Miss take a breather."

She had always felt that Lin Shu was someone who needed to worry. Now that she had caused such a commotion, she definitely had no good intentions … Closing the door would allow a few people to know what was going on inside the house.

No matter what idea Lin Shu had, she had no good intentions!

Mu Lan had only taken a few steps when Actinin Qin walked over and blocked her way.

The ladies present were all intelligent, upon seeing the situation, how could they not understand? They immediately stopped playing with their identity cards, and their eyes all landed on Lin Shu who was kneeling on the ground.

Her elegant and beautiful face was covered in tears, making one's heart ache.

In today's situation, Lin Shu had already thought about it countless times in the middle of the night. A barefoot person who wasn't afraid of shoes, she wasn't afraid of anything, she only raised her voice and said: "I'm only begging First Princess Pingning and Grandmother to spare my life!"

Grand Madam's already defeated face became even more pale. He clenched the buddhist beads in his hands even more tightly, "Sister Shu, what do you mean by this?"

Lin Shu took a deep breath, her voice becoming louder and louder, she had invited some of the madams who were watching the show outside, but she did not care at all, "Grandmother, I am a human, a living person. I am only thirteen years old now, why are you so determined to marry me to the First Princess Pingning's dead little son? I self-proclaimed myself as someone who has been respectful and filial to you all these years, who has never done anything to disgrace my Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion and face, are you so intolerant of me? "

The Grand Madam had an extremely good face, even if it was because of the matters of the Princess Changze that she and Lin Shu had a ruckus, like water and fire, and he was even extremely unwilling to even look at Lin Shu again. But after Lin Shu accompanied the Madam Lian to the manor, and was brought up from the outside, this filial granddaughter of hers, he pitifully wiped away his tears, saying that Lin Shu was a filial and sensible person, he himself was unwilling to even look at this obedient granddaughter of hers.

Moreover, Lin Shu was not obedient and did not understand, so she might not be able to win again.

Everything happened too quickly, and the Grand Madam didn't even manage to react for a long time. In merely an instant, the lady that they were talking about turned from Zhang Yuanqing to Lin Shu … It was as if Lin Shu was even more pitiful than him!

Lin Shu then looked at First Princess Pingning, and spoke word by word: "As the Crown Princess, First Princess Pingning has very high standards, I am lucky to be able to enter your eyes, but First Princess Pingning, I only wish to live a peaceful life, I beg of you, please forgive me, okay? "There are so many ladies in the capital that I am unwilling. There must be some other lady who is willing to marry you. Since ancient times, marriage has always been a good thing for both genders …"

Lin Jia slowly came back to reality and berated loudly: "Sister Shu, are you stupid? What nonsense are you spouting? "

No matter if it was her, Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion or the First Princess Pingning Palace, they couldn't afford to lose face like that. A widow for a lifetime? This was something that only a poor man would do!

Lin Shu looked at Lin Jia coldly, and laughed: "What nonsense am I saying? Big sister, do you dare to swear on Juan Niang's life that you guys aren't planning this in the dark? Even if I were to spout nonsense, how would I possibly lose my reputation as a Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion cultivator? Who could afford to lose their life? At this point, I have no other choice but to say these words in front of all the ladies. I hope that all of you ladies can speak for me! "

As she said that, she took a deep breath and then said indifferently: "If, truly, there comes a day when a marriage decree is passed down in the palace, I would dare to go against the imperial edict. When that day comes, all of you can carry my corpse and tablet into the First Princess Pingning Palace.

Her voice was loud and cold, completely unlike her usual tone of speech, which was neither hurried nor slow. For a moment, even Lin Jia did not know how to respond.

She had grown up with the Grand Madam and also believed in the legends of ghosts and gods. She believed even more in the fact that the heavens had eyes … She did not dare to casually take Juan Niang's life as a joke!

Grand Madam's fingers that were holding the buddhist beads had already turned slightly white. How could she have such big guts … She wished that he could immediately have her mouth strangled.

On the other hand, First Princess Pingning who had been silent all this time slowly stood up, and said in a gloomy voice: "What, does Fourth Miss feel that marrying into my First Princess Pingning Palace is unfair?"

She felt that Lin Shu should be grateful towards her. If her youngest son was still alive, with Lin Shu's identity, how could he possibly marry into the First Princess Pingning Palace? She was giving Lin Shu face!

Lin Shu raised her head, not the least bit afraid, "Could it be that First Princess Pingning doesn't feel that I'm wronged? If I marry a dead man, my life will be ruined … Since First Princess Pingning thinks that I have overstepped my boundaries, then why didn't you openly invite the matchmaker over to propose marriage, and instead think of such a vile method behind his back! "

"Heh, grievance? What kind of status do you have to be able to speak to me about your grievances? " If it was not in front of everyone, First Princess Pingning would have liked to slap him.

She felt that her own little son was the best child in the world, even if he died, it would be Lin Shu's greatest wish, but she never thought that Lin Shu would actually dare to scheme against her like that. She felt like she was going crazy.

Lin Shu fell silent upon hearing this, she felt that the First Princess Pingning had gone mad, but someone who had a bit of rationality should leave their relationship at this point of time.

"If First Princess Pingning thinks that my status is low and isn't worthy to marry into his estate, then that's for the best. I also hope that First Princess Pingning won't set his sights on the empress dowager and empress dowager, even though he keeps saying that he doesn't care about me. But if he turns around and asks the empress dowager and empress dowager to grant him a marriage, then I don't know if I should blame you or not!" Lin Shu's eyes were firm.

She already had no other choice. Being as proud as the First Princess Pingning, after she said those words, she probably completely disliked him … At that time, even if Empress Dowager Wang or the Empress Zhang wanted to grant the marriage, they would not agree to it.

First Princess Pingning only sneered, "Don't think too highly of yourself."

She only felt that Lin Shu was very smart, but it wasn't a good thing for a girl to be too smart … These words rebutted Lin Shu's words, from today onwards, Lin Shu was afraid that she would lose all her reputation in the capital.

None of the people in the room made a sound.

In the end, it was still Madame Zhou who stepped forward to smooth things over. "…" Was there some misunderstanding? Where in the First Princess Pingning would they do such a despicable thing? Could it be that Fourth Miss heard the rumours of the servant girl and made a mistake? "

If First Princess Pingning were to do such a thing, Zhou Family's reputation would be affected.

Even the Mrs. Guo came forward to answer. Yes, you girls always listen to the wind or hear the rain. You must have heard wrong … Did you hear your grandmother planning your marriage? You're still young, so you don't have to worry about that. If the marriage your grandmother told you about was not good, then we elders would naturally not agree. "

With just a few words, she was able to divert the topic from one side to the other, causing everyone to burst out in laughter and chatter, but their gazes continued to occasionally sweep across Grand Madam and Grand Madam.

First Princess Pingning had completely lost all interest in staying at the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion. He left after saying a few words, and before leaving, he even told Lin Jia not to stay at the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion, it would be better to return as soon as possible.

Even though the Grand Madam had been through thick and thin, from then on, his expression was not very good.

As for Lin Shu, after saying that, she was brought away by Nanny Chen, who only said that she was probably bewitched, and that it would be best to invite a doctor to take a look.

But when Lin Shu returned to the Linglong Pavilion, the Nanny Chen disappeared.

Lin Shu knew that Grand Madam was afraid that she would continue to lose face. As for the demons, it was just to lure her back.

Now that Lin Shu was lying on the bed, she could no longer hold back and heaved a sigh of relief. The First Princess Pingning would probably never think of doing anything to her again … However, the Grand Madam and the First Princess Pingning would probably not let her off.

Actinin Qin still noticed that Lin Shu's expression was not good, and only ordered the kitchen to cook some Red Jujube Tea to come in.

It was a pity that the few women in the kitchen had already been taken away. Not only the women in the kitchen, half of the servants in the Linglong Pavilion had already been taken away. The remaining few were the trusted aides of the Nanny Wei.

Actinin Qin received the news and rushed back to her room, "... Young lady, what should we do? Just now, this servant wanted to go out and find Madam, but who would have known that there were also several wives at the door, saying that without the Grand Madam's orders, our people in Linglong Pavilion cannot go out, and the people outside cannot come in either.

This was within Lin Shu's expectations, "I'm afraid that Grandmother is already going crazy … I am not afraid, now that I have caused such an ugly thing, Grandmother only dares to do such a small thing. Who knows how many pairs of eyes are staring at Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion in the capital, how could she do anything to me? "

Isn't that so!

After today's farce, many of the wives took their leave one by one after seeing First Princess Pingning leave.

Grand Madam only instructed First Madam and himself to send off the guests. If not for Nanny Chen supporting him, he might not even be able to return back to Green Pine Academy.

When she returned to the Nanny Chen, she immediately called for an imperial physician. The imperial physician had previously told her that with Grand Madam's age, she had to take good care of him and not go through any provocation.
