But he was just a father-in-law with no sense of existence, especially in front of these three people.

He was just an errand boy and a messenger.

"emperor……"

"Xiangxi, if you don't take the pastries in this food box out of the palace, they won't taste as good anymore." The emperor interrupted Lin Xiangxi.

He knew what Lin Xiangxi wanted to say. Didn't he just want him to take back his decision and not issue the imperial edict so early?

But he refused.

The emperor looked at Lin Chengfeng beside him with a forced smile. This man was determined to use the imperial edict to lock Shen Yunwan up.

The title of Consort is both an honor and a shackle.

Especially for a woman like Shen Yunwan, it is definitely more of a shackle than an honor.

Moreover, imperial edicts are only given based on a man's merits, but Shen Yunwan could obviously get a better official rank on her own.

He was interrupted by Lin Chengfeng.

Lin Chengfeng knew all this better than anyone else, yet he was so impatient to do it.

The emperor was a little curious, wondering why this man who put his wife first could be so reckless this time.

So reckless that there is no turning back.

Even the child Lin Xiangxi knew that something was wrong, but Lin Chengfeng thanked the Lord for his grace.

Lin Xiangxi was holding the food box, and his excitement was shattered by the entry of the person in front of him.

He was so angry that his father came to the palace to ask for an imperial decree for his mother.

What's the use of this broken imperial edict? My mother can make money and doesn't need the salary from it at all.

Moreover, being an imperial edict brings a lot of restrictions. One has to be a role model for women, and doing anything out of the ordinary will be criticized.

Even when my mother went out to see patients, people would say that she was not worthy of the status of a noble lady.

He knelt on the ground just now just to buy some time for his mother. Unexpectedly, the emperor agreed on the spot and asked Eunuch A Shun to notify the people in the Ministry of Works.

If I notify these people, wouldn't that mean I'm telling everyone that my mother is going to be conferred the title of Lady of Imperial Consort?

When the imperial edict comes again, will mother be locked in that imperial robe for the rest of her life?

"Sir." After Su Tian saw Lin Chengfeng coming out of the palace, he took Madden down and reached out to take the food box from Lin Xiangxi's hand.

After Lin Xiangxi got on the carriage, he took the food box and held it in his arms.

Su Tian also felt the unusual atmosphere between the two masters.

Although Lin Chengfeng and Lin Xiangxi don’t have much to say to each other normally, the atmosphere is never as cold as this.

Especially Lin Xiangxi, he pursed his lips into a line, said nothing, and didn't even give Su Tian a look.

Instead, he stared at Lin Chengfeng gloomily.

The atmosphere in the carriage was just as Su Tian imagined, as cold as an ice cellar.

Lin Chengfeng closed his eyes, looking as if he didn't want to talk.

He knew what he was doing, he just wanted to keep Shen Yunwan by his side.

No matter whether it is Liu Ze or Wang Ze, no one can get close to his wife.

If she couldn't ensure that she would stay by his side, he would have to do whatever it took.

Lin Xiangxi is now certain that his mother knows nothing about this.

The excitement of seeing my mother was suppressed and now it was about to burst out, "Why did you take the initiative to ask for an imperial decree for my mother?

You clearly know that mother longs for freedom, yet you are like this..."

When Lin Xiangxi opened his mouth, Lin Chengfeng opened his eyes, and his sharp eyes were intimidating.

But Lin Xiangxi didn't give in at all, and met Lin Chengfeng's eyes directly, "You are so unscrupulous and despicable, mother will never forgive you!"

Lin Xiangxi gritted his teeth and looked at the person in front of him with flaming eyes.

Lin Chengfeng sneered, "I'm despicable? Lin Xiangxi, don't you forget whose blood is flowing in your body? If I say that if you don't do this, your mother will disappear, will you still call me despicable?"

Lin Xiangxi's pupils suddenly widened. "What did you say? Disappear? Why would mother disappear? Are you saying..."

Lin Chengfeng looked at Lin Xiangxi with a frown on his face and didn't treat him as a child at all.

"You know as much about her secrets as I do.

Do you think your mother is from our dynasty? I'm sure you're also wondering what kind of potion she gave you to heal your injury so quickly.

And when she was injured while standing up for you at the academy, her wound healed quickly...

Don’t you know all of this as well as I do?”

Lin Xiangxi's upper lip trembled, and he wished he could sew Lin Chengfeng's mouth shut.

Yes, he had suspected it a long time ago and knew that his mother was unusual.

But what does it matter? He only knows that she is his mother, no matter where she comes from or what she is.

So what? He only knew that this woman was his mother.

"So what if I knew, she is just my mother, I just want her to be happy.

I won't allow anyone or anything that makes her unhappy!"

Lin Xiangxi clenched his fists tightly, as if he was swearing to someone.

Lin Chengfeng didn't look at him again and closed his eyes again.

His bottom line is that Shen Yunwan must stay by his side, and no one or anything can take her away from him.

Whether it is her relatives over there or her admirers who come here.

Will not work!

Lin Xiangxi looked at the stubborn Lin Chengfeng and was so angry that he wanted to smash the lunch box in his face.

But when I thought about the snacks that my mother loved in the food box, I stopped thinking about it.

Lin Xiangxi also closed his eyes, not wanting to look at the face opposite him that looked somewhat like his.

He wants to get rid of all the unhappiness first.

When he returns home, he will give his mother his most beautiful smile.

He kept suppressing the rage rising in his heart.

Until the carriage stopped, Lin Xiangxi took several deep breaths and pulled the corners of his mouth.

Without even looking at Lin Chengfeng, he lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage.

Shen Yunwan was standing at the door. When she saw Lin Xiangxi coming out of the carriage, she walked quickly forward.

"Xi'er."

Lin Xiangxi handed the lunch box to Su Tian who was standing beside him and held it forward.

He didn't care whether he was still outside the mansion or that he was already a grown man.

He only knew that he missed his mother very much and missed her embrace very much.

Just like when I was a child, I was surrounded by the pleasant smell of my mother.

He missed this sense of security.

"Come in first." A cold male voice sounded behind him.

Lin Xiangxi, who was just immersed in the joy of meeting his mother, suddenly frowned.

Then he suppressed his coldness and took Shen Yunwan's hand and walked into the house.

He didn't even glance at Lin Chengfeng.

As soon as they entered the house, Eunuch A Shun came to the Lin Mansion with the imperial edict.

"Mom, you've lost weight." Lin Xiangxi wanted to say "I miss you", but he was always introverted, and after not seeing his mother for so long, he suddenly seemed a little restrained.

Shen Yunwan touched Lin Xiangxi's head and said, "Xi'er has grown taller."

"Mom, I brought you some delicious snacks." Lin Xiangxi turned around to find Su Tian to get the lunch box, but saw Eunuch A Shun at the door.

His eyes instantly turned gloomy, and he no longer had the friendly look he had seen on Grandpa Shun in the past.

Ah Shun shook his body. Lin Xiangxi must have hated him.
