Chapter 439 part1
The palace has four gates. Lin Chujiu was trapped in the south gate at this time, and the palace officials were entering in the north gate. They were not on the same in the same place at all.
The palace officials, who were coming for the morning meeting passed by the gate one after another. Many of them looked at the south gate along the way, while smiling with sarcasm. Obviously, these people know what happened in Xiao Wangfu yesterday. They also know that Lin Chujiu was refused to enter the palace.
Especially when Lin Xiang came in, several ministers with him impolitely joke around: “Prime Minister Lin a tiger father gave birth to dog daughter!”
“Prime Minister Lin, you really taught your daughter well… …" Several old ministers couldn't help but shook their heads and sympathized with him.
If they can get along with Lin Xiang, their official rank might not stay low. However, even if Lin Xiang has power, most of the palace officials today didn't put him in the eyes. They were not polite to him all.
When Lin Xiang heard those words, he was so irritated but couldn't refute. He could only harden his face and think like it was nothing.
His official position has a big gap with these people. He can't be bothered with it.
Before, because of his granddaughter's issue, Right Prime Minister You was degraded by Lin Xiang. So now that he saw this opportunity, he doesn't want to miss it: "Prime Minister Lin, I heard that your youngest daughter doesn't want to get married. You have to persuade Xiao Wangfei as to not hinder your daughter's future."
Right Prime Minister You said. He means to say that Lin Chujiu was so arrogant that Lin Wanting dare not to refute her.
Lin Xiang doesn't really want to talk about this issue, but someone people simply can't ignore it. If his official position was lower than him, he can simply disregard him, but Right Prime Minister You was different. The two of them have an equal position. They always argue at ordinary times. If people saw that he doesn't fight back, they might think he is afraid of him.
Lin Xiang stopped his footsteps and looked at Right Prime Minister You. Then, he said with a serious face: "Prime Minister You, Xiao Wangfei is an imperial princess, and I am nothing but a minister. What do you think Xiao Wangfei’s identity? The emperor didn't say that Xiao Wangfei was wrong, when is it your turn to say a word about it? Prime Minister You, if you want to intervene in this thing of heaven, do as you please. This minister will not stop you."
Lin Xiang shamelessly used Lin Chujiu's identity. He said that Lin Chujiu was Xiao Wangfei, so he couldn't manage her, and he doesn't dare to control her.
After that, Lin Xiang didn't give Right Prime Minister You a chance to speak again. He waved his sleeve and left Right Prime Minister You standing in the same place.
However, this quarrel didn't affect the progress of the morning meeting. When everyone entered the main hall, the meeting has began not long after… …
*
Even after the morning meeting began, Lin Chujiu was still surrounded by the imperial guards. She couldn't go anywhere. Since the beginning, Lin Chujiu didn't say anything, she stayed inside the carriage, but the imperial guards don't believe in it.
“Xiao Wangfei deliberately fooling us, we must be careful."
“Xiao Wangfei must be playing a trick, everyone pays attention.”
“Listen, no matter what Xiao Wangfei wants to do, stop her. Don't let her go to the main hall and interrupt the meeting."
The imperial guards kept exchanging look in the eyes. Even if Lin Chujiu didn't make a move, they treat her as an enemy.
They firmly believe that as long as Lin Chujiu was here, they can't be safe!
This fact was true. After half an hour, Lin Chujiu's voice came out of the carriage: "Let's go!"
“Yes.” The coachman simply answered. Xiao Wangfu's guardsmen immediately stepped forward and pointed their spear on the imperial guards: "Make way!"
“The emperor gave an order, you can’t leave.” When the imperial guards saw Lin Chujiu make a move, they didn't get surprised at all.
They will be more surprised if Lin Chujiu will not make a move.
