Red Mansion Daiyu, the Rise of the Lin Family

Lin Daiyu followed the messenger to Princess Chaoyang's mansion.

The princess’ team hasn’t called her for several days. What’s going on today?

There won't be a need for someone to take the blame, right?

When Lin Daiyu stepped into the garden of Princess Chaoyang's mansion, she saw the familiar figure of Princess Huo'er, standing next to the rockery, with her hands on her hips and an unhappy look on her face.

"What's the matter? I haven't seen you these few days and you're worried." Princess Huo'er said in a sharp voice, her eyes full of contempt.

Damn it, you deserve to be called Huo'er. Look at you now, you are the very image of the word "fire".

Lin Daiyu cursed inwardly. She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. "Princess Huo'er, what do you mean? When did I ever offend you?"

"Do you still have any awareness of being a study companion?" Princess Huo'er insisted, with a hint of provocation in her voice.

Lin Daiyu was burning with rage, but she forced herself to hold it back. She looked up and saw Princess Chaoyang and her companions approaching.

"Princess, you've seen it too. Princess Huo'er doesn't welcome me. So I'm going back."

Princess Chaoyang frowned when she saw this and beckoned Lin Daiyu to stay.

"Alright, stop arguing. If anyone messes up my important event today, I'll make sure your family pays for it."

At this point she glared at Lin Daiyu again, "Don't worry, it's a good thing. I know you are a good person."

Princess Chaoyang said the word "good person" with gritted teeth.

Lin Daiyu thought to herself, why does the word 'good person' seem ironic here?

But I am a really good person.

"Now that everyone is here, let's go." Princess Chaoyang waved the whip in her hand.

Several people followed and walked out.

Lin Daiyu's heart tightened, and she hurriedly asked, "Where are we going?"

Princess Chaoyang glanced at her and said, "Looking at your ability, don't worry, after you do this job, you won't be needed anymore."

"You are smart on the outside, but you are still a fool inside. Even if you are given a diamond, you can't do porcelain work."

As she spoke, Princess Chaoyang pointed at Lin Daiyu with a whip, her tone contemptuous.

Princess Huo'er waved her hands impatiently, "Just follow me, why are you talking so much nonsense?"

"I'm telling you, Princess Huo'er, I've been putting up with you for more than a day or two. As soon as you see me, your nose is not your nose, your eyes are not your eyes."

"Just because you're here, I feel unlucky. We're quarreling before we even achieve anything."

"Princess, please give us your opinion."

Lin Daiyu changed the subject, hoping that Princess Chaoyang would fail in her mission.

"Reason, this is my reason," said Princess Chaoyang, waving the whip in her hand.

"Anyone who says another word will be whipped immediately."

"Prince Nan'an and Concubine Nan'an were going to the palace today, and we robbed them on the way."

Upon hearing this, Lin Daiyu's heart skipped a beat and she almost fell down.

She ran to Princess Mu in two steps and said, "Do you agree to rob your mother and brother?"

Princess Mu looked at her in surprise, "How fresh! You're not robbing me."

"Do you have a heart?" Lin Daiyu looked at her with deep sorrow.

He whispered, "We met at Hanshan Temple. We even played together. Why are you pretending not to know me?"

Princess Mu looked at her blankly, without saying a word, and trotted to catch up with Princess Chaoyang.

This is really a strange thing, opening the door for strange things, and strange things are finally home.

Killing relatives for righteousness?

This family in the Nan'an Palace is not normal.

"How far will we go in robbing? Do we have a plan?" Lin Daiyu had to find out.

"Just follow me, why are you talking so much nonsense?"

"How can we, women, eat them?"

"It's just to let them have some fishy experience, so they don't go to the palace and cause bad luck to others."

Even with Princess Chaoyang as his guardian, Huo'er still spoke in a very simple manner.

Lin Daiyu thought to herself that she would have to wait and see, hoping that the Concubine Nan'an would show leniency to her because Jia Min was her best friend.

Besides, there is her daughter, so all I have to do is keep a close eye on her daughter.

……

On the long street, the carriage of the Prince of Nan'an's Palace drove past in a low-key manner.

Inside sat the Nan'an Concubine, her expression unrecognizable.

The car curtain fluttered in the wind, and her thoughts went back to yesterday.

……

In the Nan'an Palace, the Nan'an Concubine Dowager sat on her throne, holding a piece of paper tightly in her hand.

The frosty expression on his face showed no emotion.

It was indeed him, and everything was a conspiracy of the emperor on the throne.

In order to gain power for himself, he sent people to murder the old King of Nan'an and covered up all clues.

If my son had not gone to the northwest to investigate in person, this unjust case might never have come to light.

"Go and call Prince Nan'an." There was a chill in the voice of Concubine Nan'an.

……

"Mother!" Wei Yi walked in with an upright posture, wearing a brown straight dress.

"Tomorrow we will go to knock on the palace gate to meet the Queen Mother. You should get ready." Concubine Nan'an said to Wei Yi with a serious look in her eyes.

"Let me see what they say."

Wei Yi stood straight, "I will obey the order of the Concubine Dowager!"

"My Lady Consort, the little princess has been spending a lot of time with Princess Chaoyang recently,"

"What are you asking around the maids?"

"Should I talk to her?"

Concubine Nan'an waved her hand indifferently and let him leave.

"You don't need to tell her so much. She's still a child, and her head is like a hammer. If you say too much, it will easily reveal your true intentions."

"Just leave her innocent!"

"If she's really in the way, lock her up."

The words of Concubine Nan'an were cold and heartless.

"She is an insignificant girl. No one will want to kill her. Instead, they will protect her and hold her in high esteem."

"You are different."

"How many people are hoping for your death! If you could be killed with one blow, someone would have already done it."

……

Concubine Nan'an's thoughts were like a curtain swaying gently in the spring breeze.

Outside the sedan chair, Prince Nan'an was riding on a horse with a heroic appearance, as dazzling as a pearl.

The sound of his horse's hooves was crisp and powerful, guarding the Concubine Nan'an in the sedan chair, slowly moving towards the direction of the imperial palace.

On the opposite side, Princess Chaoyang led a group of girls towards them. The long whip in her hand was like a spirit snake, dancing in the air and making crisp sounds.

Her study partners followed closely behind, all of them in high spirits.

Seeing that the two teams were about to meet, Princess Chaoyang slowed down her pace. She turned her head sharply and gave Huo'er a look.

Huo'er understood what she meant, exchanged glances with the two maids beside her, and then quickly went behind Lin Daiyu.

They took advantage of Lin Daiyu's unpreparedness and rushed forward.

"Go!" Princess Chaoyang gave a soft order, and Huo'er and the maids rushed towards the target like arrows.

They rushed forward, surrounding Lin Daiyu.

"Let me go!"

It passed right under the horse's hooves of Prince Nannan.

"Oh my god!" Lin Daiyu thought to herself, it's waiting for me here!

This is Huo'er, a fellow who can't forget the vengeance he suffered at Yangzhou Posthouse,

He thought of this trick and came at me.

It was about to be under the hooves of the Nan'an King's horse.

The King of Nan'an pulled his horse's neck hard.

"Xu..."

The horse's front hooves leaped high and neighed.

The guard beside him shouted nervously,

"How dare you! Who dares to stop the carriage of Prince Nan'an's Palace?"

The people around were stunned.

This is the main street of Beijing!

When will the nobles start fighting in the streets!

Judging from their attire, they are all aristocrats.

This is so much fun!

The merchants and passers-by around... all stopped to watch.

It’s not too big to watch the bustle.

Lin Daiyu closed her eyes and realized that her grandmother was just a robber.

Since it's a scam, I'd rather you do it than me since you have more experience.

Thinking of this, Lin Daiyu suddenly shrank back and dodged.

When she got behind Huo'er, she pushed him hard.

"Go ahead, you!"
