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

"You!" Fu Jin didn't expect him to say that, and a sense of fear surged in her heart.

Yes, although she was a concubine, she could only guard an empty room.

He is the prince and the master, so he can choose the woman he likes.

If she doesn't suit his taste, he can replace her with another favorite, or even a new concubine.

Why?

She is also a human being and doesn't like the Fourth Master, so why can't she choose!

A wave of sorrow overwhelmed Fu Jin, almost suffocating her.

The Fourth Master snorted coldly: "If you can't be a good wife, someone else will do it!"

Fu Jin was half lying on the seat at the top, her heart aching.

This is her grandfather, so cold and heartless.

She couldn't help but wonder how Li or Lin could tolerate this heartless man?

Maybe this is the ability of inferior people. She wants to vomit when she sees this person.

If her life and property didn't depend on this man, if the emperor hadn't ordered her to get married, she would have met a good husband who was devoted to her, right?

Fu Jin leaned for a while, sat up, wiped the tears from her face, and stood up.

She straightened her back, refusing to show any weakness in front of the Fourth Master: "Master, I will teach you a lesson."

Seeing her rebellious look, the Fourth Master frowned and said, "I hope you will take care of yourself."

He had no intention of changing his wife. None of his brothers wanted to change, and he didn't want to be the first to do so.

And there is no guarantee what the next person’s personality will be like.

As long as Fu Jin can fulfill her duties, he doesn't mind giving her the honor of being Fu Jin.

The concubine left, taking the maid with her mouth broken.

Lin Mingyan didn't feel relieved. The maid was just a knife in the hands of the concubine.

The knife is broken, but the person using it is still fine.

The Fourth Master came over and saw her sad and distressed look. He patted her back and said, "Don't worry, Cha Cha. I'll ask the court doctor to use the best medicine. They will all be fine."

Actually, I feel a little embarrassed to say that he is mainly responsible for what happened today.

If he hadn't suddenly wanted someone to dress up as a eunuch and go out, but instead summoned her to the front yard as usual, there would have been no such trouble.

The Fourth Master also asked Su Peisheng to give the five servants in Linfengju an additional three months' salary as compensation.

After doing all this, he looked at Lin Mingyan, who lowered her head and said nothing, and advised: "Hao Cha Cha, it's late at night, it's time to rest."

"Master, please go and rest. I want to stay here with Dujuan for a while." Lin Mingyan didn't dare to get angry and could only resist silently.

She couldn't be so affectionate with the Fourth Master when Dujuan and others were injured.

The Fourth Master looked at her coldly for a while, but did not force her. He comforted her with a few words, then turned around and left with Su Peisheng.

After Lin Mingyan and the others left, the yard became quiet. He then raised his head, with unconcealable hatred in his eyes.

She is not a good person. Fu Jin takes such good care of her, she must repay him in every possible way when she has the chance in the future.

Just like they bullied her family and burned down the house when she escaped.

She had no place to live since she was a child and had to live in the woodshed. Now other people have nowhere to live either, so maybe they can only live in the pigsty.

"Princess, are you okay? It doesn't hurt at all." Dujuan saw that she was feeling uncomfortable and comforted her.

Lin Mingyan came back to her senses, held her hand and said, "Nonsense, how could it not hurt?"

"Rest well these days and heal your injuries. Don't let any root of the disease remain."

Dujuan shook her head like a rattle: "Gege, we are all resting, who will serve you?"

Putting aside other things, there must be someone to pick up the meals every day, right?

Lin Mingyan patted her hands: "Don't worry, I have money, how can I let everyone starve to death?"

"Everyone, listen carefully! No one is allowed to go out until the court doctor says it's okay. Otherwise, you will be kicked out!"

Dujuan and the other two were naturally grateful.

She went to see Su He and the other man again and told them what she had said. They both had tears in their eyes.

After she was settled in, two familiar eunuchs brought her hot water.

Upon inquiry, it turned out that Su Peisheng had specially arranged it. The two of them even stayed here, saying that they were there to provide temporary assistance.

Lin Mingyan did not refuse. She gave them the reward and let them go.

It was only when she finished taking a shower and lay in bed that she began to review today's events.

How did the news of her dressing up as a eunuch and going to the front yard get leaked?

Suddenly, she sat up in bed.

Enlightenment.

It’s Li!

It is impossible for the people in the front yard to betray the Fourth Master. They cannot afford the consequences of being discovered.

In the backyard today, apart from Dujuan, only Li and her maid Shiliu had seen her.

Maybe they discovered it at the time, or maybe they realized it later.

Then there must be someone who is Li's accomplice in the main courtyard, who can pass this news to Fu Jin without making any noise.

Lin Mingyan pinched her scabbed palms tightly, as if she couldn't breathe, and she wanted to beat up this group of people to vent her anger.

When you stare into the abyss, the abyss stares back into you.

The conflict in the backyard is so intense that if you are not careful, you may be doomed.

If you don't take the initiative to harm others, but others won't stop harming you, your final outcome may be worse than that of the Song family!

Li, just wait!

Li was so happy in Shaoguangyuan that she couldn't sleep, and asked Shiliu to talk about the miserable situation in Linfengju today over and over again.

The anger she had been holding onto for the past few months finally came out. "Nanny, look, I've avenged you!"

Although Nanny Yun failed to kill someone, Li would not think it was her fault. It was all Lin Mingyan's fault.

If she had obediently let the two eunuchs push her into the water, the nanny would not have died.

Now that she had vented her anger, she ordered a bowl of bird's nest and eggs in the middle of the night.

For several days, Li was in such a good mood that she wandered around.

Fujin and Song never go out, Lin stays at home for the sake of her servants, and the two new arrivals are insignificant.

Li is the only one in charge in the backyard and can go wherever he wants.

One day, she was feeding the little goldfish in the Taiping tank with Shi Liu when she heard a rustling sound coming from the corner.

"Have you heard? Nanny Yun was tortured to death by slow slicing!" a eunuch said in a shrill voice.

Another voice, lower in tone, asked, "Who is Aunt Yun?"

"He was the one who was next to Li Gege before. Have you forgotten that he slapped you ten times?" The shrill voice gloated.

The lower voice suddenly realized: "It's her, she deserves it!"

"But how do you know? We servants weren't asked to watch the execution."

In the past, when a slave committed a serious crime and was to be sentenced to death, all the slaves had to be handed over to witness the execution.

How come he hasn't heard about this?

The shrill voice chuckled, "Isn't that the noble one who's pregnant with the prince? If she knew about it, she wouldn't make the prince furious."

"Bah, this is retribution!" He touched his palm in a low voice, as if feeling aggrieved about his injury.

......

Shi Liu's face turned pale, and she rushed to the corner to keep the person, but there was no one there.

When she came back, Li's face was as pale as gold paper and she was barely breathing. "Tell me, is what they said true?!"

Li grabbed Shiliu's wrist tightly, and stared at her with a pair of eyes like ghost fire in the night.

Blood flowed out from under Li's skirt, and Shi Liu cried out in surprise: "Ah~~~"
