Queen...

Before she had the chance to scold Lin Can, she heard her daughter's angry voice.

[Kill? You old witch, why don't you just die? I'm fine, how dare you kill me? 】

[First, I'll let you experience the feeling of being chased by Erdan for two blocks. Humph, I'm going to let Erdan bite your ass hard. Humph, humph! ]

When Xiao Qianqian heard that Lin Can wanted to instigate her mother to kill Erdan, she became so angry that she cursed and bared her teeth and waved her fists at her.

The queen immediately hugged her tightly and comforted her gently. She felt so distressed that her little girl was so angry.

Lin Can curled his lips in disdain, "Second sister,"

"Sister, please don't say anything more about Fengqi Palace," the queen's voice turned cold. Having been in a high position for many years, it was inevitable that she would exude a bit of majesty. "The tea is getting cold. Drink some tea."

Lin Can immediately lowered her eyes to hide the dissatisfaction in her eyes. She drank a few sips of tea in silence and continued speaking after a while.

"Second sister," she paused as if she was a little hesitant, but soon made up her mind, "My husband has been the governor of Fengzhou for more than five years. Can you talk to my brother-in-law and transfer him to the capital?"

Queen...

The look she gave Lin Can was indescribable. This girl also grew up with her mother.

After her mother passed away and she unexpectedly learned that she was just a concubine of the Lin family, her temper became more and more strange and unruly.

Not only did she bypass her father and choose Xu Dingcheng as her husband on her own, but now she is begging me for her husband.

Lin Can would never have said such words in the past. She didn’t quite understand what Qian Qian said about being in love just now, but now she kind of understood it.

"The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics."

In a word, the Queen spoke without any emotion.

Lin Can panicked. She stood up hastily and stamped her feet. "Second sister, there is no one in the harem now. Except for the unpopular Concubine Shu, Concubine De and Concubine Luo, everyone else has left or been dispersed. Brother-in-law will definitely treat you differently."

Her panic-stricken look stunned the queen. No, was she bewitched by something?

Or maybe she was stimulated by something. In her memory, although this half sister was not clear-headed sometimes, she would not lose her composure like this in front of her elder sister.

By the way, Concubine Shu, Concubine De and Concubine Luo?

These three concubines seemed to have never seen her in the future, and when she arranged female official positions for other concubines, these three people never appeared.

It seems that I must meet these three people before the end of the year, the queen frowned and thought.

Lin Can only then realized that what he said was a little hasty and somewhat threatening.

She secretly regretted it in her heart, blaming her mother-in-law for pushing her too hard, causing her to lose her composure today.

"Second sister," Lin Can stood up and knelt on the ground, slowing down his voice, "I'm sorry, I spoke out of turn."

The Queen finally came out of her thoughts. She was just thinking about Concubine Shu, Concubine De and Concubine Luo. The memories of these three people were already very vague in her memory.

"Uh," the queen waved her hand at her, "We are sisters, and it's normal to speak in a hurry. Please stand up."

She looked at Lin Can quietly for a while, "But you have changed a lot in Jiangnan over the years."

"Variety?"

Lin Can touched his face, then looked at the queen's bright, plump, snow-white and translucent face that was favored by time, and couldn't help but lower his head.

She cannot be compared with her second sister. Her second sister lives a life of luxury in the palace. Although she lives in Jiangnan, she has a lot of household chores to deal with.

There are so many things for her to worry about at home and outside, how can she stay young?

The Queen saw her lowering her head, not knowing what she was thinking, so she spoke, "I will talk to Your Majesty about Xu Dingcheng when I have time."

Lin Can looked up in surprise, his eyes shining as he looked at the queen, "Thank you, second sister."

The Queen called herself "I", she did not call herself "this palace", it seems that her second sister still cares about her younger sister very much.

"However," the Queen took a sip of tea and planned to say something upfront, "If Xu Dingcheng wants to stay in Beijing, he must be protected from any accusations. You chose this person yourself, and your brother-in-law and I are not familiar with him."

Lin Can couldn't help but blush. It was indeed her who took the initiative to secretly get married to Xu Dingcheng. But now they have a child, so what happened back then doesn't matter.

"Second sister, Ding Cheng is a simple-minded person. If it weren't for the pressure from the Governor of Jiangnan, he would have been transferred back to the capital long ago."

Queen...

No, if you are talking about your husband, then just talk about your husband. Why are you trying to associate yourself with the Governor of Jiangnan?

While the two were talking, a maid came to report, "Empress, Madam Lin San wants to see you."

The queen immediately stood up and went to greet him in person. "It's so cold, and Qiqige is pregnant, why is she running?"

She personally welcomed them into Fengqi Palace and held Qiqige's hand. Fortunately, her hand was warm. Xiao Qianqian, who was leaning on the couch, also waved to her aunt.

"Empress," Qiqige's face flushed, "It's not cold. I was bored staying alone, so I came here to play with Qianqian."

The queen looked at Qiqige's slightly bulging belly and murmured for a while, "Although you live close, you still have to be careful."

Qiqige nodded with a smile. She could feel the care of her relatives and her heart was warm.

"Second sister, who is this?"

The queen immediately took Qiqige's hand and brought her to Lin Can, "This is Qiqige, your third brother's wife."

She turned to Qiqige again, "This is our fourth sister Lin Can."

"My third brother's wife?"

Lin Can's question in a high-pitched voice froze Qiqige's friendly smile on her face.

The contempt in her eyes also made the queen feel very uncomfortable.

Sure enough, the next second Lin Can looked Qiqige up and down, "She is a foreign woman from the Northern Frontier?"

"Lin Can," the queen frowned, "no matter who she is, you should call her Third Sister-in-law."

Lin Can curled her lips, not taking Qiqige seriously at all. She looked at the queen with some resentment, "Second sister, you are crazy. My third brother is such a man. He is a general of Daxia and a handsome man. Only the noble ladies in the capital are worthy of him. This girl from the grassland can only be a concubine."

As he said this, he glanced at Qiqige sideways, without calling anyone or bowing, and sat back in his chair.

The queen was so angry that she rubbed her forehead fiercely, "Lin Can, you are so rude, have you forgotten? Men of the Lin family do not take concubines?"

"Second sister," Lin Can looked at the queen with amusement, "Isn't it funny for you to say these things as the mother of a country? Which man doesn't take concubines? Why does the Lin family want to be different? Aren't you afraid of becoming the target of public criticism?"

Thinking of something, she snorted again, "Also, the laws related to women that you revised before, Second Sister, such as widowed mothers can inherit their deceased husband's estate and raise their children as a female household. Such as if there is no son in the family, the daughter also has the right of inheritance, and such as clans cannot force orphans to marry."

Lin Can sneered, "Second sister, you can just play with these laws, but why do you force the counties to enforce them? And you also want to include the enforcement of these laws in the official assessment, isn't this nonsense? Aren't you really afraid of bringing disaster to the Lin family?"
