Chapter 949 [Ashes of Love: Red Mansion Tribulation 19]
Jia Min frowned slightly and said earnestly, "Yu'er, have you ever mentioned this to your father?"
Youyou shook her head gently and replied softly, "I haven't told Father yet. I'm here to report this to Mother first."
Jia Min sighed helplessly and said angrily, "Then let mother talk to your father. As for you, you should stay at home obediently for the time being. Why didn't you tell mother about such an important matter earlier so that I could prepare!"
Youyou quickly grabbed Jia Min's sleeve and explained coquettishly, "Oh, mother, I have already come to tell you."
Jia Min patted Youyou's hand lightly, then showed a worried look on her face and asked, "But speaking of which, since the prince is in love with you, how do you plan to deal with this election?"
Youyou blushed slightly, lowered her head shyly and replied softly: "The prince said that it will just be a formality. He will ask the emperor to grant us the marriage."
Hearing this, Jia Min nodded slightly to show her approval.
When Lin Ruhai returned home from court, he had no time to sit down and rest before Jia Min hurriedly called him over. Jia Min said to Lin Ruhai with a happy face, "Master, our Yu'er is really promising. She has found a husband of her dreams!"
Lin Ruhai was stunned when he heard this, then frowned and raised his voice to refute: "What? Madam, are you confused? Our Yu'er is a banner girl, and according to the rules, she must participate in the election!"
Jia Min rolled her eyes at Lin Ruhai and said coquettishly, "When have I ever lied to you, Master?"
"That's right, ma'am. Which ungrateful pig dared to dig up our juicy cabbages?" Lin Ruhai asked seriously, frowning.
Jia Min smiled slightly and said, "Master, you know him too. Isn't he the prince?"
Lin Ruhai was slightly startled when he heard this, and then asked: "Could it be the Prince of Beijing?" A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Jia Min nodded slightly and replied, "That's right."
When Lin Ruhai heard this, he was so angry that his face turned blue. He slammed the table and shouted, "What a prince of Beijing! No wonder he sent someone to say that he would visit our Lin Mansion in person a few days ago, and he also vowed to let our Dai Ke enter Yuelu Academy smoothly. I felt that this matter was a bit strange at the time, and I kept wondering in my heart, could it be that this restless pig is targeting our daughter? It really makes me angry to death!" As he said, he slammed the table again, and the teacups on the table were almost knocked over.
Jia Min opened her red lips and said slowly, "My husband, think about it carefully. This may not be a bad thing! Don't you think so? If Yu'er really participates in the election, it is hard to predict who the emperor will marry her in the end. According to the emperor's mind, Yu'er, who is from the Han army, will definitely not be allowed to fail and return home. In this case, Yu'er is very likely to be given to a prince as a legitimate wife, but this possibility is very small. It is more likely that Yu'er can only become a concubine. That's all. Although people often say that a concubine is like a concubine, and the son born to her is also considered a legitimate son, in the final analysis, she is not as good as a legitimate wife! My husband, how can you bear to let our Yu'er step into the deep royal door? So now, the Prince of Beijing is the best choice! Besides, the Prince of Beijing's backyard is still empty, and he has never had a maid. He even promised in person that Yu'er would be his only companion for the rest of his life, and he would never take a concubine or marry a mistress. "
Hearing this, Lin Ruhai frowned slightly and asked doubtfully: "Even so, I still feel a little uncomfortable. Wait a minute, Madam, I am very curious, how did the Prince of Beijing and our Yu'er know each other?"
"Yu'er said that when we were returning to Beijing, we encountered a group of people with ill intentions on the way who wanted to harm us. At the critical moment, the prince came to rescue us like a god from heaven. Since then, they have gradually become familiar with each other." Jia Min recalled with a serious expression.
"That's not right! That's not right! After Yu'er returned to Beijing, she didn't go anywhere else except visiting the Rongguo Mansion to visit relatives and friends. So how did they become so familiar with each other? Could it be..." Lin Ruhai frowned, as if he suddenly thought of something shocking.
When Jia Min heard what her husband said, she was also shocked and immediately said, "No way! The prince would not do such a thing as breaking into a woman's room at night." Her face was full of suspicion, and she obviously couldn't believe it.
"How can it be impossible? Now that I think about it, the management of our Lin Mansion is really lax. It is amazing that a prince was able to enter our Lin Mansion without anyone noticing, and none of the secret guards in the mansion noticed it. It seems that these secret guards really need to go back to school for further training. They are all so incompetent that they don't even have this little bit of vigilance. It is really disappointing!" Lin Ruhai became more and more angry as he spoke, and he couldn't help but slam the table and stand up.
Then, Lin Ruhai made careful arrangements and arranged two teams of well-trained soldiers around Youyou's residence, in front, behind, left and right. These people worked closely together, taking turns to guard day and night, always keeping a high level of vigilance, not giving Runyu even the slightest opportunity to take advantage.
As night fell, the moonlight sprinkled on the earth. Runyu, as usual, was looking forward to meeting Youyou again. However, when he just approached Youyou's residence, he was shocked by what he saw - many guards holding torches, patrolling back and forth, guarding the entire area like a solid wall. Runyu understood instantly that Lord Lin had already seen through the relationship between him and Youyou, and took such strict precautions to prevent him from approaching Youyou.
Runyu knew that it was not wise to force his way in at this moment, so he turned around and left quietly. Along the way, his thoughts were surging: since Lord Lin already knew about this, then maybe he didn't have to hide like before, and could choose to enter the Lin Mansion openly to face everything. Having made up his mind, Runyu quickened his pace and returned to his mansion, and began to plan his next move...
