Chapter 127: A Commoner Girl Is Not a Good Match
"Miss! Eunuch Xu from the palace has arrived and is waiting in the front hall."
The royal sister had not arrived yet, but her voice had already entered the house.
Lin Acai was putting things away. When she heard the sound, her hand that was putting things into the space suddenly stopped. She immediately turned around and went to open the door as if nothing had happened.
"Did Eunuch Xu tell us why he came to visit us from the palace this time?"
The master and servant walked hurriedly, and just as they were talking they turned around a corridor.
Why did Eunuch Xu come at this time?
Could it be that something has happened to the queen's health again?
"Miss, Master Xu didn't tell you. You should go and ask him in person."
Lin Acai walked into the front hall with a heavy heart. When she saw Eunuch Xu standing up and walking towards her with a smile, the fog in her heart instantly dissipated. She smiled and said, "Eunuch Xu never comes to visit you for no reason. I wonder what brings you here today?"
Eunuch Xu flicked his whisk upon hearing this and said, "Oh~ Look at what Miss Lin said, it's not easy for me to leave the palace, and I was ordered by the Empress to invite you to the palace again!
The queen said that she has been feeling a little weak lately and would like you to condescend to come over and take a look...
You also know that the Empress does not trust the quack doctors in the palace, so please go to the palace tomorrow and take a good look at her."
After hearing this, Lin Acai smiled calmly.
Eunuch Xu has always been concerned about the Imperial Concubine's health, but seeing this man not seeming to care...it can be seen that the Imperial Concubine is in good health.
But if there was no problem, why did the Imperial Concubine insist on asking Eunuch Xu to make this trip in person?
Is it...
For some reason, Lin Acai always felt a little uneasy.
At this time, Eunuch Xu spoke again, and suddenly said something inexplicably: "Since the first time I saw Miss Lin, I felt that Miss Lin was a blessed person, and that she had a destined fate with my queen."
"..."
The situation changed so quickly that Lin Acai really didn't know how to respond.
However, before Lin Acai could reply, he suddenly spoke again: "I have delivered my message. It is time for me to return to the palace to report. If we continue chatting, the palace gates will be closed..."
After saying that, Eunuch Xu suddenly flicked his whisk and laughed out loud: "It's fate~"
His meaningful look stayed on Lin Acai for a moment, and then he walked away!
Lin Acai was stunned. She stared at Eunuch Xu's back and thought for a long time, but she had no clue. However, the feeling of uneasiness was particularly strong.
I always feel like something is not quite right.
"Sister!"
"girl……"
"Have you bought the copper lock for the small door?"
Hearing this, the royal sister nodded heavily, "Don't worry, girl, Brother Tian Xi has already bought it back a long time ago, and now the small door has been locked."
"it is good……"
Lin Acai thought about it and finally realized that the Imperial Concubine's decision to summon her into the palace must have something to do with her good brother next door.
It seems that she already knows the relationship between herself and her brother.
Now that she knows about it, it's good. I might as well make it clear to put her at ease.
Let her persuade that boy.
After all, he is her own brother, so her words should carry some weight.
As a result, after entering the palace the next day, it was just as Lin Acai had expected. The claim that he was there to treat the imperial concubine was just a cover.
In fact, the imperial concubine's real purpose was to test her opinion and see what she really thought.
"Ms. Lin... I never thought that the girl my infatuated brother swore to search the entire Kyoto city to find three years ago... would be you!"
Looking at the imperial concubine's astonished expression, Lin Acai smiled silently and did not interrupt.
Upon seeing this, Concubine Xiao's eyes turned and she said, "My brother has had a unique vision since he was young and is very good at judging people. This is definitely what my father inherited. However, being infatuated with a man is not a bad thing. Which girl doesn't want to find a husband who loves her wholeheartedly... Don't you think so? Miss Lin..."
Concubine Xiao had been saying a lot of prelude to this sentence. Seeing that Lin Acai didn't respond for a long time, she finally threw the conversation to her.
"..."
Lin Acai was somewhat speechless.
She listened to what was said, but she didn't expect that Concubine Xiao was actually in cahoots with her brother.
But how could she support this marriage between herself and her brother? !
This is unreasonable!
Shouldn't she stand up and oppose it and stop it?
How is this going?
Could it be that the Imperial Concubine is a brother-con and a doting demon? ? ?
That won't work!
She doesn't want to marry his brother!!
Thinking of this, Lin Acai gritted her teeth and could no longer hold back, "My Queen! Prince Xiao is of noble status and has made great military achievements, and I, a commoner girl, am not a good match for him at all!
Besides, I have a child who is less than three years old, and I am no longer innocent. Please, Madam, make sure that the prince gives up this idea. He deserves a better girl!!!"
Lin Acai's resounding voice echoed outside the hall for a moment.
Eunuch Xu's face suddenly changed with shock when he heard this.
What on earth is Miss Lin thinking?
The Imperial Concubine and Prince Xiao valued her so much that they didn't care about her status and position at all. They wanted to marry her into the Marquis of Jingyuan's mansion and make her a legitimate prince's consort.
But she didn't care at all, and actually said such straightforward and decisive words in front of the Empress?
He has lived for so many years and has met countless people, but this is the first time he has seen such a person.
Inside the bedroom, Imperial Concubine Xiao had the same idea as Eunuch Xu. She never expected that Miss Lin would reject her good intentions in person and not leave her any room for maneuver.
"Ms. Lin, are you worried about the child? Are you afraid that my parents will not agree?"
After thinking about it, Concubine Xiao suddenly thought that perhaps this was the biggest problem.
Then, she patiently advised calmly: "…Miss Lin, don't worry, as long as you agree to marry Changxiu, the matter of the child…you can just say it's Changxiu's…"
"No!!!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Acai’s head exploded instantly!
Her child, it's her child, why say it's that man's?
She disagrees!!!
The hall was completely silent, and there was dead silence again.
The young palace maids were so frightened that their faces turned pale. They looked at each other and no one dared to say a word. They thought, is this Miss Lin crazy? How dare she talk to the imperial concubine like this?
Although the queen has always been kind and lenient to her, she should not push it too far and be so disrespectful...
That's the Imperial Concubine!!
If the Empress blames her for this and banishes her from the palace in anger, that would probably be the lightest punishment.
