Surprise! The little koi from the farm, her husband who died long ago is alive!

Tao Wanwan snorted with disdain. It's not like she hasn't seen women divorcing their husband's families before, but in her opinion, what qualifications does Jiang Shuyue have?

Not to mention that Xiao Lin is a prince, even if he is the young master of her Tao family, she is still marrying above her station.

Xiao Lin looked at Jiang Shuyue's serious expression. If he hadn't discussed it beforehand, he would have really thought she was serious.

"What are you making trouble for?" Xiao Lin frowned and said unhappily.

"You are allowed to do bad things, but I can't make trouble." Jiang Shuyue looked like a shrew at this moment.

Xiao Lin was stunned, really stunned. In his impression, Jiang Shuyue was always a very reasonable person, both in his past life and in this life.

"I've already said it's not like that. Even if it is, so what? I'm the eldest son of the Tao family. Even if I take a concubine, it's not too much."

"Okay, Xiao Lin, you finally spoke your mind, right?" Jiang Shuyue was so angry that she picked up the teapot next to her and threw it at him.

Tao Yide exclaimed, "Stop, that's my purple clay teapot, there's an important inscription on it..."

However, the next moment, all that was heard was the sound of the purple clay teapot breaking.

"Ah!" Tao Yide felt heartbroken.

"Have you had enough trouble?"

"No, I'm going to go outside and shout and tell everyone how ungrateful and heartless you, Xiao Lin, are."

"Go ahead." Xiao Lin's voice was muffled.

Originally, Mrs. Tao did want to arrange for someone she could trust to live in Xiao Lin's room. For no other reason than that all eggs should not be put in one basket.

Although the possibility is very low, she still wanted to be on the safe side. However, after Jiang Shuyue's fuss, she temporarily gave up the idea.

"Alright, alright, Shuyue, Xiao Lin is wrong. I'll take care of it for you."

Jiang Shuyue looked at Xiao Lin angrily. She was giving him a way out.

Mrs. Tao knew it very well and must not let her go outside and make a scene.

Now she finally understood that Xiao Lin was a hot potato, and she regretted bringing him home.

Prince Duan is just wasting his time. Such a person will not achieve much in the countryside.

"You two too, don't take your brother to such shady places in the future."

"Mom, that's Miss Shen's restaurant, what's wrong with it?" Tao Yunfei defended himself aggrievedly.

Mrs. Tao looked over with a cold eye and said, "You are not allowed to go there anymore. Isn't this incident enough?"

Lost the wife and broke down again.

The Tao family's shops in the capital city had good business. If they sold them off, not only would they lose their monthly income, but the three shops themselves would cost over a thousand taels, plus another three thousand taels of silver notes.

Where can I go to seek justice?

The two brothers of the Tao family felt bitter when they thought about the money.

"The General's Mansion has gone too far. Isn't this abusing power for personal gain?" Tao Yunlong said indignantly.

"We should sue him." Jiang Shuyue also sighed, "I'm angry, but there's so much money, what can't we do with it? Is there no one who can control the Pei family?"

Of course there is.

Tao Yide couldn't swallow this. That was more than four thousand taels of silver. Was he going to give it away for free?

how is this possible.

The next day, someone reported Pei Shangxing in the court, accusing him of oppressing the people.

Sitting upright on the dragon throne, Emperor Cheng'en, whose eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to Xiao Lin's, cast a sharp gaze on the Pei father and son.

"Is this possible?"

"This... Your Majesty, yes, but things are not as Lord Gao said." Pei Shangxing glanced at Censor Gao.

Censor Gao is Prince Duan's man, so my sister-in-law's move was really smart, and she immediately hooked out the big fish behind the scenes.

It turned out that it was a trap set by Prince Duan for Xiao Lin. He is very happy now.

This sister-in-law is such an amazing person, she is simply a female Zhuge Liang.

"Then tell me what the truth is." Emperor Cheng'en said in a cold voice.

"Your Majesty, my brothers and I were having dinner at that restaurant. They have been with me through thick and thin. Because of some scumbags, they had a fight with the Tao brothers. They beat my brothers up, so I naturally couldn't let them off easy."

"But there is something about three thousand taels."

"Your Majesty, there are still three shops." Censor Gao reminded.

She looked at him gratefully, "I am not senile."

Censor Gao was so frightened that he quickly knelt on the ground. He was too anxious.

"Your Majesty, that man has been injured. He will never be able to fight on the battlefield again. He has an 80-year-old mother and a bunch of children to support..."

"You can't ask for so much." Imperial Censor Gao couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty, General Pei is just relying on his victory and military merit to act recklessly."

Pei Shangxing thought to himself, even if this is the case, it is what I should do.

How many people died this time?

Emperor Cheng'en looked at the Pei family father and son, "General Pei, do you know about this?"

"Your Majesty, I don't know. Although I have been at home these days, I have been studying military books and have no idea what is happening outside. This bastard actually did such a thing. You must punish him. You must punish him."

No one would believe that he doesn't know.

Censor Gao wanted to impeach Pei Changting, but Emperor Cheng'en had already spoken, "Pei Shangxing."

"Chen is here!"

"You are bullying others by taking advantage of your power. I cannot just ignore it. I will fine you one year's salary."

Censor Gao and Prince Duan were both stunned. Is it that simple?

Pei Shangxing thought he would be demoted, "I obey your order."

Censor Gao wanted to say something more, but seeing that Emperor Cheng'en didn't look very happy, he didn't dare to say anything more.

Emperor Cheng'en knew very well what the Pei family was thinking.

The father and son did this because they were afraid that their achievements would overshadow their master.

"The Tao family... actually dared to beat up even a meritorious official?"

Censor Gao was so frightened that he quickly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, they don't know."

"How do you know they don't know?" asked Emperor Cheng'en.

"You know them? You know what happened yesterday today. Censor Gao's news comes really quickly."

"Your Majesty, I...my servants heard it on the street. Besides, this matter caused a big stir. It happened in the famous Mingyue Tower. Many ministers in the court must have heard about it."

Censor Gao looked behind him, trying to find a few people to agree with him, but all officials knew how to read the emperor's face, and Emperor Cheng'en's attitude just now said it all.

Even if something like this happened, the Pei father and son would still be reused.

After all, it is up to the father and son to quell the foreign threat.

"Mingyue Tower?"

"I've heard this name a lot recently."

"Father, my sister should have mentioned to you that the dishes at Mingyue Tower are very unique."

Emperor Cheng'en nodded. He heard more than just a little bit.

Thinking of the little princess's whispers in her ears, he wanted to go out of the palace to take a look. What kind of dishes were they? Could they be better than those in the palace?

After the court session was dismissed, the Pei father and son exchanged a glance, and their smugness made Censor Gao and others so angry that their noses were smoking.
