No, I was just a concubine, how did I become the queen?

Of course the Fourth Master would not object. He would be more than happy to catch the turtle in the jar.

After returning from the mausoleum, he listened to Lin Mingyan's retelling and curled his lips: "Then let them practice well."

"Okay," Lin Mingyan also smiled.

I will avenge the Fourth Master’s leg and Linglan as much as I can.

"Before the New Year, let them go to VIP House to perform. I'll invite a few people to go and have a look," said the Fourth Master, turning his ring.

He could recommend himself to enter the palace, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs would definitely not refuse him.

However, we need to report to the Emperor afterwards and prepare complete means to capture all the people.

Other brothers or ministers who are not aware of the inside story are likely to cause misunderstandings.

It would be better to invite people to watch a show, and naturally there will be people willing to be the vanguard.

If we report this to the Emperor, the follow-up will be much safer.

When Lin Mingyan listened to his explanation, she was puzzled: How come Fourth Master, an honest man, has so many cunning thoughts now?

But this is a good thing, she was so happy that she couldn't contain herself.

Anyway, it's someone else who's being screwed, and the most important thing is that her Fourth Master won't be implicated.

So, Lin Mingyan chose the New Year's Eve and let Miss Jin's troupe perform at the VIP Residence.

After the Fourth Master injured his leg, he could refuse gifts from others, but he still had to accept condolences from clan elders.

This time, I will use this name to invite some relatives to a banquet at the VIP Residence.

Anyway, they were happier at the VIP residence than at the Fourth Master's mansion.

With the addition of dancing, music and opera to liven up the atmosphere, the guests felt right at home and both sides were happy.

Madam Tong sent a message that night, saying that someone came to inquire about the situation of the opera troupe, especially the female role in the middle, who was so popular.

Of course, she didn't say that she had any relationship with the opera troupe. Lin Mingyan had told her not to have close contact with these people.

He just said that he didn't invite the most popular person in Beijing today, so he found someone to fill in the gap.

If you really like it, you can help the owner, but there is no other connection between you and VIP House.

I heard that he was asked to leave that night.

"That's it," Lin Mingyan said with a cunning smile on her face.

The Fourth Master touched the corner of her upturned mouth and said, "I've already reported this to the Emperor. He heard that you were trying to restore the Ming Dynasty, and he's very angry."

"Once this group of people enter the palace, they will be directly sent to the inner prison."

It is difficult to catch all of these people who remain outside, no matter what excuse they use.

After all, if you want to arrest someone, you need evidence.

But entering the palace with weapons was undoubtedly an assassination and a treason.

Even the traitors outside can be wiped out at once.

"By the way, Hui'er and the others are three years old this year. They will go to the palace together during the New Year," the Fourth Master instructed her.

In the past few years, they were not allowed to enter the palace on the pretext that the children were still young.

Even the eldest princess had never entered the palace, so she couldn't get away with it this time.

Lin Mingyan nodded: "The other day when I went to the palace to deliver the festival gifts, the queen had already told me to do so."

The other princes, once they had children, could not wait to go to the palace to pay New Year's greetings as soon as they could walk.

Only the Fourth Master felt sorry for the child. First, the eldest princess was born prematurely and the child was delayed for several years.

Honghui and his two children are triplets, and we don’t dare take them outside in the winter just because we say they are difficult to raise.

In addition, the legitimate son Hongyan was also weak and sickly, so he hid for three years.

I will be five years old this Chinese New Year, there is really nothing I can do.

"I'll be leading Hui'er and the others ahead. You just need to keep an eye on the two princesses," the Fourth Master said, fearing that she would worry. "Hui'er and Yun'er are in good health. They'll be fine."

Lin Mingyan was not worried about the two of them, because her body-strengthening talisman seemed to have some effect on the children.

Except for Hongpei who has a naturally sensitive constitution, the other children rarely even cough when the seasons change.

She was a little worried about Hongyan: "The third prince fell ill again a few days ago. Wu took good care of him day and night, and he has just started to get better."

"If he were to go into the palace, not to mention the alternating hot and cold weather, just the sheer number of people would scare him."

Hongyan was taken care of by Wu, and when he was silent, he didn't look like a fool.

But when there are many people around, he becomes timid and may cry or even get angry and go to Wu.

The Fourth Master rubbed his brows and said, "There's nothing we can do about it. He can only overcome it himself."

"Isn't Hongshi also timid and afraid of others? When the two of them are together, it's no longer noticeable."

He could take sick leave and prevent Hongyu from going, but then who knows what others would do behind Chacha and Huier's backs.

It would be better to bring him out directly. If he can't stand on the stage, it doesn't mean they are holding him back and preventing him from coming forward.

Lin Mingyan just reminded him that it was up to the Fourth Master to decide what to do.

After all, the child was not her own flesh and blood, and she couldn't be so open-hearted to him. It was already good enough that she could take care of him as a relative's child.

Since she had received approval to enter the palace, Lin Mingyan invited Geng, Wu and Zhang to discuss the matter the next day.

The quadruplets are still young, so the birth can be postponed for another two years.

The remaining four princes and two princesses all had to enter the palace.

Lin Mingyan was very generous to the women and children in the backyard. Her winter clothes were not only expensive but also made in sufficient quantity.

It is enough to wear when going to the palace at this time, so there is no need to add more.

Calling people over was also to inform them of the precautions and let them teach them properly while there were still a few days.

"Don't overdo it, don't scare the child," Lin Mingyan instructed, "On New Year's Eve, say a few auspicious words to the Emperor."

"We have neither too many nor too few children in our house. We can just stand together and say something. The volume of our voices doesn't matter."

No matter how great the emperor is, he would not be too harsh on children of a few years old.

Even if you don't keep up or cry once or twice, it's not a big deal.

Geng was of course relieved. Firstly, the eldest princess was lucky in age, and secondly, she was also very outspoken and eloquent, so it would not be difficult for her to be frightened by a few auspicious words.

Wu and Zhang were both happy and worried. They were happy that their child could finally enter the palace and show his face, but they were also worried that he might not do well again.

Zhang became more talkative, constantly asking about things to pay attention to, wishing she could write them all down and stuff them into Hongshi's head.

She had long given up expecting Hongshi to be better than anyone else, but she also hoped that he could enjoy the rights of a normal imperial grandson.

Anyway, as long as he doesn't make any mistakes, when Hongshi grows up, he will be able to rely on his father to get a small title and never have to worry about food and drink for the rest of his life.

Now, this is the first step to ensure that he does not make mistakes.

Lin Mingyan did not hide anything and asked Aunt Gao to explain everything to them in detail before sending the person back.

When Zhang returned home, she asked Zhenzhu to dig Hongshi out of the bed and start teaching him without stopping.

Hongshi opened his confused eyes and was frightened by his own mother and cried...
