Rumble——
The weather was not good, and the early spring rain came as soon as possible. The sky was still clear in the morning, but within two hours, it was as if someone poured a pot of ink on the sky out of thin air.
There are four battalions in the capital, and Lin Qingpei holds the Wuling Army in the south camp. The Wuling Army was originally controlled by General Yi.
After General Yi's death, the military power fell into the hands of Lin Qingpei. Lin Qingpei was also General Yi's personally selected son-in-law. In the hearts of the soldiers, they could not help but regard Lin Qingpei as General Yi's heir.
Taoxin braved the rain and came to Nanying.
When Taoxin arrived, Lin Qingpei was discussing something with someone. When he saw her, he looked unhappy and asked, "Why are you here?"
Tao Xin glanced at the soldiers around her and said, "Something happened in the mansion! I have something important to tell the Second Master!"
Lin Qingpei frowned and waved away his subordinates. When no one was in the room, he asked, "What's the matter?"
Taoxin was in a panic, she knelt down on the ground with a plop and said: "Please help our madam, second master. This morning the old lady called my madam to Jingshou Hall to punish her for selling her dowry yesterday!"
Lin Qingpei said: "What she did yesterday was indeed inappropriate."
Hearing this, my heart froze.
"But this is all for brother Ming! How can our wife not save him even though he is dead?"
"She is now a member of the Lin family. How can she be devoted to her mother's family? Before doing this, she never thought of discussing with me where to put me?"
Lin Qingpei's face was slightly cold, and he said: "She and I are husband and wife. Women are obedient, and husband is their heaven. It's not like she hasn't read the training of women. She shouldn't understand such a simple truth."
Tao Xin was filled with disappointment, and she said: "Second Master means that you won't care about it, right?"
"My mother's intentions are good. A small punishment but a big warning. After this, I hope she will remember her identity in the future and not lose the face of the Lin family."
"But, it was raining so heavily outside, and the old lady asked her to kneel down in the courtyard. Our lady is weak and won't be able to bear it!" Tao Xin felt uncomfortable inside, and her eyes turned red.
Lin Qingpei said: "It's just a minor illness, and my mother just wants her to learn a lesson."
Tao Xin had nothing to say when she heard this.
The second master never thinks about their wives. He only cares about the Lin Mansion and his own career.
Tao Xin said disappointedly: "This is how you treat General Yi's orphan, isn't it?"
"Take a good look at your current official position, the Nanying in your hands, and these Wuling troops. Which one is not General Yi's? If General Yi hadn't left him alone before his death! Do you think you can get all this easily?"
These words undoubtedly touched Lin Qingpei's nerves.
Lin Qingpei's face turned cold and gloomy.
"Bold! Everything I am today is the result of my own efforts!"
Tao Xin was about to say more.
I saw a little guard, opening the door and hurried in.
"Report! General, you'd better go back to Lin's mansion quickly. Your Majesty, Your Majesty has gone to your mansion."
Lin Qingpei was shocked when he heard this.
"what happened?"
"Your Majesty went on a visit incognito today. Unexpectedly, it rained heavily. Your house happens to be very close, so His Majesty went to your house to take shelter from the rain!"
Lin Qingpei stood up quickly and said, "Quick, prepare your horse, I want to go back to my house."
Tao Xin followed him and said hurriedly: "Second Master, that madam... Your Majesty went to the house and let your Majesty see the old lady corporally punishing the madam. Isn't it good?"
Lin Qingpei hesitated for a while and then said: "Let your wife go back to Ningxuan Hall and ask mother not to embarrass her anymore. Just say it was me who said it."
"Yes, Second Master."
Tao Xin cried with joy and rubbed her eyes, thank God! Thank God! Thank you to Your Majesty who suddenly went to Lin Mansion to take shelter from the rain! Their wife is saved now!
Lin Mansion.
When the concierge of the Lin Mansion saw the distinguished man standing at the door, his expression changed drastically.
The man is wearing a dark round-collar robe, a jade belt around his waist, and soap boots. Both the robe and the jade belt soap boots have obvious dragon patterns, showing a dark gold color, which is noble and noble.
The identity of the man is self-evident.
Only the Emperor can decorate Dayu with dragons.
"Bold! Kneel down quickly!" Zhang Desheng scolded.
"Little... little one pays homage to Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty!" The porter trembled and knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
Zhang Desheng said: "Your Majesty is paying a private visit incognito today. Unexpectedly, a heavy rain suddenly came. He happens to be close to your Lin Mansion. He came to take shelter from the rain, so he didn't rush to greet him."
The concierge stood up tremblingly, opened the door, and said: "Your Majesty, please."
Immediately, the concierge winked at the boy and asked him to report it to his master.

Outside Jingshou Hall.
Yi Huan has been kneeling for three hours. At this moment, her whole body was soaked by the rain. Aunt Liu stood aside holding an umbrella and watching coldly.
She said: "Second Madam, if I had known this now, why did I do it at the beginning? Haha, you don't look down on me, but look at the maids and boys in Jingshou Hall. How many of them look up to you?"
"In the past, when General Yi was here, you had the capital to be arrogant, but now the grass on General Yi's grave is three feet high. You, the Yi family, have to rely on our second master. Who are you going to show your arrogance to?"
After saying that, Grandma Liu spat disdainfully.
So cold.
The cold raindrops hit her face and body.
Yi Huan hugged her arms. She didn't want to kneel down. She wanted to get up countless times in the middle, but before she could make a move, this naughty slave firmly held her shoulders down.
My knees hurt and numb, and I felt like my entire legs were no longer my own.
In the lobby, the old lady asked: "Do you know what's wrong?"
Yi Huan looked straight at her, her eyes blurred by the rain, and she said, "I'm not wrong."
"Okay! Very good! I don't believe that I can't cure you today!" The old lady said angrily, "The state-owned legal family has family rules! Since you are stubborn, I will let you know that our Lin Mansion is not for you to run wild. The place!"
Yi Huan has been very cautious since he called the Lin Mansion. When did he get too wild?
These people were just thinking about her dowry, and they were angry that she discounted the dowry and gave it as a subsidy to her parents' family.
Yi Huanmen'er is clear.
After a while, the young man walked into Jingshou Hall quickly and whispered in front of the old lady: "Old lady, Your Majesty... Your Majesty came to the Lin Mansion. He said he came to take shelter from the rain. He has already entered the mansion."
"What!" The old lady was shocked.
Then she looked happy and said: "Your Majesty treats us Erlang well. Your Majesty comes to the Lin Mansion in person. This is an honor that no one else has. I want to go to meet His Majesty in person. Dalang, you, you, too, come with me!"
She glanced at Yi Huan who was kneeling in the courtyard, waved her hand and said, "That's it, let her go back."
"Mother Liu, my mother-in-law said, let the younger siblings go back and think about their mistakes. A noble person has come to the house, so that the younger siblings will not bump into the noble person." Mrs. Yu said hypocritically.
Nanny Lin had no choice but to say: "Second Madam, you are lucky today."
Yi Huan stood up dragging his sore legs.
Is there a noble person coming to the house? What noble person? For the old lady to be like this, her official position must be higher than Lin Qingpei's, and her status must be more noble than Lin Qingpei's.
She really had the blessing of this noble man, otherwise she wouldn't know how long she would have to kneel down.
Yi Huan's legs were so painful that he couldn't stand still, so he stumbled towards Ningxuan Hall.
Whether it was because of the rain or physical discomfort, her vision felt blurry and darkened.
Yi Huan shook his head.
Staggering through the Moon Gate, she didn't notice that she had taken the wrong road. This was not the road to Ningxuan Hall, but the road to the main entrance of Lin Mansion.
Yi Huan's legs hurt, his body felt weak, and his mind was not clear. His vision suddenly went dark. He could no longer hold on and fell forward.
I thought I was going to be beaten to death, but I suddenly fell into a warm embrace, with a light smell of ambergris.
Ambergris... ambergris? !
Yi Huan suddenly struggled, but Jin Yuan hugged the little woman tightly. He lifted her up horizontally, his face gloomy and cold.
