Lin Wanyi was startled in her heart.
Could it be that if Mr. Qin truly entered imperial service, wouldn’t it be a demotion?
One must know that in the harem, aside from serving the Emperor, Empress Dowager, Empress, and the four consorts, the biggest positions are the Chief and Vice Director of the Inner Court Departnt.
Even if he went to imperial service, his status wouldn’t necessarily be higher than it is now.
Could it be that the Emperor knows sothing and intentionally said it for her to hear?
After all, it’s not good for concubines and ranked eunuchs in the palace to have too close a relationship.
Mr. Qin, however, was still smiling as he answered as usual.
"Since the day I entered the palace, I beca the Emperor’s servant. If you tell to go east, I dare not go west. If you need to serve in the imperial court, I’ll go back imdiately to pack and move over."
With this said, the Emperor also laughed.
"There are already enough people serving in front of , besides, if you ca, wouldn’t Dong Yuzhong lose his job? It’s better for you to stay at the Inner Court Departnt and do your work well, as for..."
While speaking, his gaze swept over Lin Wanyi.
Lin Wanyi felt uneasy, it seed the Emperor knew a lot of things, which is why he behaved this way.
She had so thoughts about Qin An and vice versa.
However, their alliance was not yet firm, and just one look from the Emperor made them feel a bit guilty.
"As for Ruiyang Pavilion here, pay more attention, look around properly, like the hot spring pool at the back doesn’t have a room. It wouldn’t be good if Lin Guiren catches a cold in the winter."
Lin Wanyi smiled awkwardly, realizing the Emperor was not thinking in the sa direction as she was.
Recalling the absurd events of yesterday, her cheeks flushed with discomfort again.
Qin An imdiately understood and accepted the task.
Stating he would surely handle it well.
Qiu Ming ca over with Chunqi, bringing lunch as well.
The Emperor and Lin Wanyi hadn’t had breakfast yet, they were truly hungry.
So the dishes, four courses, and a soup, were almost finished before being removed.
Sated but tired, though they had slept most of the day, now their spirits were good.
Lin Wanyi didn’t forget what the Emperor said yesterday, so she reminded him.
"Your Majesty, could my brother..."
With that, the Emperor rembered and said to Qin An,
"Find a reason to bring Lin Guard."
"Yes, as you command, Your Majesty."
Hearing this, the excitent on Lin Wanyi’s face was evident.
When Lin Xingzhi ca with Qin An, she couldn’t help but want to cry.
Since hastily parting at the Dragon Boat Festival banquet, she hadn’t seen her brother again.
Knowing he went to join the army, mostly because of her, she was very concerned.
Seeing him well now, naturally, she couldn’t hold back her worry and excitent.
"Your servant greets the Emperor, wishes the Emperor well, greets my lady, wishes my lady peace."
"Mm, rise."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
At this mont, Lin Xingzhi was also extrely excited inside, but he couldn’t show too strong an expression on his face.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t be good if the Emperor saw it and thought he was not steady.
"You two siblings haven’t seen each other for a long ti, go and talk in the side room, I’ll be here reading so books, and we will dine together later."
"Yes."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace."
Lin Wanyi took Lin Xingzhi away from the main hall and went to the room where Doctor Dou usually consulted.
As soon as they entered, they slled a faint dicinal scent, and Lin Xingzhi frowned imdiately.
"Qianqian, haven’t your ailnts been fully healed? Why is there a dicinal sll?"
His concerned manner made Lin Wanyi feel warm.
Only family would react this way, otherwise, why would outsiders notice such things!
She quickly explained.
"Brother, rest assured, I am fully recovered. Staying at the palace is to look after the Second Prince and Second Princess, this dicinal scent is what they left before."
"Second Prince? Second Princess? What’s going on?"
Lin Xingzhi was entirely in the dark about the palace matters.
So he asked question after question.
Lin Wanyi, fearing he’d worry, recounted all the events since entering the palace.
Only after hearing everything did Lin Xingzhi breathe a long sigh of relief.
"Hmph, I knew Lin Guifei wouldn’t speak carelessly without reason, when traveling with the Emperor, she purposely said vague things to unsettle , nearly causing to make a mistake at the imperial court!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Wanyi frowned too.
"What did she say?"
"She said sothing happened at ho, and you and our brother were injured, I couldn’t hold back. Fortunately, thanks to Huanqing and Mr. Dong’s guidance, I avoided her trap, otherwise, carrying such worries, how could I perform my duties at the imperial court, wouldn’t all my hard-earned efforts be in vain?"
"Hmph, her intentions are despicable! No one in the West Wing is any good!"
The siblings gritted their teeth in hatred when ntioning them.
But with their current abilities, it was like a mantis trying to stop a cart, so they had to let it go for now.
"By the way, did His Majesty say Imperial Concubine stayed at Taishan Palace and wouldn’t return for a while?"
"Yes, her and Prince Zhan’s many misdeeds have finally backfired, serves them right!"
Lin Wanyi nodded, then solemnly said to Lin Xingzhi.
"Since it is so, brother, don’t squander this opportunity. If you can gain recognition at the imperial court, even when Lin Guifei and Prince Zhan return, they can’t belittle you as before."
She thought very straightforwardly, and understood many things over these days.
Even the Emperor fears soone as strong as Princess Consort Yi and the Liu Family, let alone Lin Guiren and Prince Zhan.
So only by advancing can one protect the family from being bullied.
The younger brother entering the Imperial College has a bright future ahead.
And for the brother, since he followed the Fourth Prince in the Imperial Armor Army, he can’t remain a simple fool.
So she gave this reminder.
"Sister, rest assured, being able to appear before His Majesty is already a great blessing. As long as I am in the Personal Guard Camp for a day, I will do everything properly."
Lin Wanyi looked at him and nodded solemnly.
She naturally hoped for her brother’s well-being, and if there was a chance...
She suddenly thought of the birthday gift the Emperor ntioned to her in the morning, and wondered if she could use the gift for her brother’s future, would the Emperor agree?
As the siblings engaged in heartfelt conversation, ti flew by.
Two hours passed quickly.
Although the Emperor had ntioned dining together later, Lin Xingzhi was not foolish enough to force it.
He didn’t have the fortune to dine with the Emperor.
So he naturally found an excuse to leave.
Seeing his resolute departing figure, Lin Wanyi felt considerably comforted.
"He’s doing well training in the Personal Guard Camp, even the Fourth Prince Uncle praised him several tis in front of , so there’s no need to worry, Da Wei needs talents, and if he is one, he will not remain unrecognized!"
