It was said that family mbers without any issues could return ho first.
These words were already very clear. With the Emperor’s decree, many madams packed their luggage and left that very afternoon.
Lin Wanyi heard about this in the camp.
She was montarily stunned, then followed with a helpless bitter smile.
The children have reached the age for marriage; delaying further would only cause delays.
Therefore, she did not reject the Emperor’s action much.
However, there was a hint of resentnt in her gaze towards the Emperor.
"Your Majesty, you didn’t discuss this with . Ying is still lying in bed, and at this mont, the Crown Prince is actively selecting a Crown Princess Consort, which seems inappropriate."
Lin Ying’s injuries had stabilized, but he hadn’t yet regained consciousness.
Lin Wanyi feared this would chill her brother and others’ hearts.
That’s why she spoke this way.
Unexpectedly, Lin Xingzhi spoke up even before the Emperor, and his words were rather relaxed.
"Madam, the Emperor’s action is like muddying the waters. Once we return, the Capital City will beco lively, and by then, the fox’s tail will be exposed."
Upon hearing this, Lin Wanyi was surprised.
Yet the Emperor’s expression when looking at Lin Xingzhi revealed a sense of understanding.
"Hmm, what He Song said is precisely what I have in mind."
Lin Wanyi mulled over these words, and only comprehended after a while.
"Your Majesty ans that soone is likely to tamper with the selection?"
The Emperor nodded, his eyes showing a hint of amusent.
"The Autumn Hunting Ground was planned ahead, and incidents of black bears harming people never occurred. The opposing party perhaps thought this plan foolproof, so did not prepare for assassinating the Crown Prince, or they were interrupted by Han King and others before they could act."
"Having missed this golden opportunity, they will certainly seek other chances. Rather than letting them lurk in the shadows waiting to harm the Crown Prince, I will create an opportunity and see those daring enough to co and offer themselves up."
These words completely clarified the current situation.
Yet Lin Wanyi couldn’t help but silently sigh.
A good matrimonial matter for the children, which should have been joyful and sincere.
Now it had to be intertwined with so many inexplicable affairs, which she found sowhat helpless.
But stories of imperial families are never simple.
The pleasant life she enjoyed for over ten years was built upon the Emperor’s strength.
Thus, she would not rashly judge things.
Most importantly, judging by the Crown Prince’s attitude, he seed excited about using the selection to find the traitor.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have agreed so quickly.
So she just had to compromise and say,
"Since Your Majesty and the Crown Prince both have plans, I will proceed as planned."
"Hmm, rest assured. The matter of the Crown Princess Consort is sothing I have already considered; at present, it’s just a decoy."
"Oh?"
This surprised Lin Wanyi sowhat.
The Emperor had already decided, yet she, as a mother, hadn’t noticed.
Indeed, as she aged, she grew lazier.
Seeing the Emperor and his sister wanting to talk, Lin Xingzhi wisely found an excuse to leave first.
Once only the two of them remained in the tent.
The Emperor pulled Lin Wanyi into his embrace, just like before.
"I really am, not taking anything to heart, even the Crown Princess Consort is sothing Your Majesty thought of, as a mother, I’m quite inadequate."
"Nonsense, they all grew up so well, isn’t all of that thanks to you? As a father, isn’t choosing a daughter-in-law a natural thing? Don’t overthink it."
Lin Wanyi heard this, and smiled, hugging the Emperor back.
She felt she was overthinking.
As long as it benefits the Crown Prince, she is willing to accept.
Moreover, the Crown Princess Consort is the future Empress of a nation.
Not only must she stand side by side with the Crown Prince, more importantly, she must secure her position in the harem.
And also be able to check the front court.
Thus, the Emperor’s consideration might be the most accurate.
But would the Crown Prince like it?
This she did not know.
The Emperor, sharing his heart with her, naturally understood Lin Wanyi’s concerns.
So he spoke again.
"Don’t worry, what I choose, the Crown Prince will be satisfied, even if there isn’t much love, there will certainly be respect."
Upon hearing this, Lin Wanyi was silent.
Because she fully understood the Emperor’s duty.
Just as the Emperor, before she entered the palace, didn’t he also have to hold the Six Palaces?
As for the Crown Prince, there are long roads ahead.
Moreover, life is unpredictable.
The Crown Princess Consort might just be what he desires.
Thinking of this, Lin Wanyi felt relieved.
But suddenly recalled sothing.
"Little Four is also eighteen now, it’s ti to choose a Princess Consort, shall I handle this matter?"
"Of course, even Little Six’s wedding, you can decide if you like, and your brother’s two nephews, and the people of the Crown Prince’s Palace, the earlier they settle down, the sooner their minds will be set."
Lin Wanyi nodded, so she must pull herself together.
And take a good look at the daughters of Da Wei today, and see which ones shine bright.
Mr. Dong and his wife arrived at the Autumn Hunting Ground, sowhat delayed till evening.
Fortunately, the Autumn Hunting Ground wasn’t far from Shengjing City, or else traveling back and forth would have been a waste of ti.
Upon arrival, they imdiately headed towards Lin Ying’s resting camp.
As soon as he entered the room, Mr. Dong detected an unusual scent.
"Yunjian Grass? Did you use Yunjian Grass for Ying?"
He was very familiar with properties of dicines, even though it had been many years since this herb had left the Dong Family, he could still recognize it instantly.
Lin Xiruo hurried to greet them, paying respects to the couple.
"Xiruo greets Second Grand Uncle, Second Grand Aunt."
"Please stand, there’s no need for formality among family."
After which they approached Lin Ying.
Second Madam raised her hand to check his pulse, while Lin Xiruo handed the Yunjian Grass bottle to Mr. Dong.
"Indeed, it was Mother Consort who took out the Yunjian Grass. Thanks to this dicine, our cousin’s life was saved, and the place clawed by the black bear healed."
No one knew better than Second Young Master Dong what effects Yunjian Grass had.
Now he was only amazed that it had co to the point of using such a dicine, showing how urgent Ying’s situation was at that ti.
"You did well. Ying’s breath is stable now; however, the internal injuries of his organs will take ti to heal. Once his condition stabilizes, it would be best if we return ho from this dry Autumn Hunting Ground."
Lin Xiruo agreed with this, hence she took out her usual Golden Needle and said,
"Second Grand Aunt, shall we begin?"
Mrs. Yun nodded, and together with Lin Xiruo, they began their work.
Their Golden Needle Skill was extraordinary.
Especially Mrs. Yun, with the precision of her needle and the ingenuity of her technique, each ti Lin Xiruo watched, she would be filled with admiration.
