Chapter 256 262. Pingyang Marquis Mansion 10
Lin Xi knew what her daughter was worried about, so she grabbed her hand and said earnestly, "Don't worry, your father won't be able to do anything.

When you come back from the palace, you must be nice to us."

"But, mother, aren't you afraid of my father? What if he takes away your housekeeper rights?"

"Butler power?" Lin Xi sneered, "Then I hope he can quickly take back the butler's money.

With the financial resources of the Marquis's Mansion, he probably can't even support himself."

Before she married into the Marquis's Mansion, the mansion had already been squandered by the old Marquis. Otherwise, it would be impossible for such a large mansion to marry a merchant girl like her.

Thinking about the grievances he had endured over the years, Lin Xi felt that he had not yet gotten over the anger he had today?

"Your mother's dowry will only be left to my children. As for others, whoever gives birth to them will raise them." These words were so murderous that Liu Ziqi was a little dazed. Is this still her gentle and virtuous mother?

"Silly girl, don't let your mother scare you." Noticing Liu Ziqi's expression, Lin Xi reached out and touched her hair, "This is the difference between me and your father.

He is the father of all of you brothers and sisters, but I only have you and your brother.

I know your father has always wanted to leave the Marquisate to his concubine's son, so he has always ignored your brother's existence.

I have protected your brother very well over the years, and many people have forgotten the existence of the Marquis's legitimate son.

Everyone only knows you, the legitimate daughter, because you will get married in the future and will not pose a threat to them, but your brother is different.

He is already in school, and it won't be long before he gets noticed. If you don't step on these people, your father won't even notice your brother."

Lin Xi did not have a strong sense of presence for the legitimate son, and this was all intentional. There were so many illegitimate sons and daughters in the backyard of the Marquis's Mansion, which showed how chaotic it was.

Liu Fengning didn't let her teach because he was on guard against her, and Lin Xi was happy to have some free time.

She doesn't have the selfless ideas of those ladies in the family. She just wants to protect her own children.

She had wanted to endure it for a few more years, but now her parents' family no longer needed her to worry about them, and they could even serve as her backup. Plus, with her daughter's adventure in front of her, it would be foolish for her not to seize the opportunity.

There was still some distance to go before entering the palace, so she simply grabbed Liu Ziqi's hand, broke down all the things, and told her in detail.

The reason why Liu Ziqi hasn't been arranged to marry for so many years is not to delay her daughter, but because she doesn't want her only daughter to marry into a wealthy family. She knows well that marrying into a wealthy family is beneficial to her parents' family, but it is the sorrow of many women.

Therefore, it is better that the Marquis' Mansion does not have a good reputation, because in this way, those noble families will look down on the children of the Marquis' Mansion. She can choose carefully and find one that is easy to control.

As long as the Marquis' Mansion does not collapse, and with the support of the Lin family, his daughter will be respected wherever she goes.

When the group arrived at the palace gate, they naturally could not drive the car in, so Yun Tutu parked the car directly outside the palace gate and followed Eunuch Li and others into the palace.

The imperial palace of this parallel world was not that large, and they arrived at the main hall in less than ten minutes.

Murong was wearing a bright yellow imperial robe and sitting upright on the dragon throne.

After Liu Fengning and the others knelt down and bowed, Zhang Yaowen and Yun Tutu came forward and bowed, "Greetings to His Majesty the Emperor."

They did not kneel down to pay homage to the First Emperor, let alone perform a great ceremony to this unknown emperor.

When Murong Rong saw their strange way of greeting, she was surprised for a moment but immediately put it aside. Since they were not her people, she could not ask for too much.

Besides, he had other important things to discuss today, so he didn't need to pay too much attention to these small details. "Who is Yun Tutu?" Although there was only one girl here who had to dress up, he could tell at a glance that the other tall and thin one was a tomboy.

These people are really ignorant and innocent. Don’t they know that this is a crime of deceiving the emperor?
"Your Majesty, I am Yun Tutu," Yun Tutu stepped forward and said with a bow, "I wonder what your Majesty wants you to know."

Murong Na looked at Yun Tutu. Compared with the beauties in the harem, her appearance could only be considered pretty.

In terms of courage and momentum alone, even the spoiled eldest princess is inferior to her.

"The girl is a straightforward person," Murong Na came down from the dragon throne, and the eunuchs and palace maids around her followed closely.

Yun Tutu could tell at a glance that these people were no ordinary people and each of them had some skills. It seemed that the emperor valued his life very much.

"I heard that you are from another world. You brought a lot of rare things to the young lady of the Marquis' Mansion before, but you made a lot of money."

Yun Tutu smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you are really flattering. We are just businessmen. Who would do business if it doesn't make money?"

Such composure made Murong Na couldn't help but give a thumbs up. He didn't know how girls were taught in other worlds, but they were so graceful and generous, and they didn't even show any fear in front of him.

"Hahaha," Murong Rong laughed loudly, "What the girl said really makes sense. The girl has vision, courage, and strength. No wonder she can do such a business.

I'm just curious, why did you look for the eldest daughter of Pingyang Marquis's Mansion at that time?"

Look at the emperors. They are indeed petty-minded and want to control all the good things in their own hands.

Yun Tutu, "I can't do anything about this. Chance, opportunity, and timing are all essential. Miss Liu just happened to come across it."

"So it depends on fate," Murong Rong glanced at Liu Ziqi, and Liu Ziqi was so scared that she quickly lowered her head, "Then Miss Yun, do you think I have such an opportunity?"

Yun Tutu shook his head slightly. "There is only one contact person in each place. This is predetermined. In the myriad worlds, there may only be one such opportunity in a plane."

Liu Ziqi looked up at Yun Tutu with gratitude in her eyes. She just understood that His Majesty the Emperor wanted to replace her opportunity.

If Yun Tutu indicated that she could be replaced, her fate would be predictable.

"The girl has such magical powers, can't you be flexible?"

Yun Tutu was under the pressure he exerted, but the momentum was still not enough. He missed his ancestor a little, because that was the true aura of an emperor.

"This is really beyond my control. In this vast world, I just happened to be able to contact a few of them. If it weren't for Miss Liu, I don't know if I would have the chance to come here."

Yun Tutu put it more bluntly. Unless the emperor was a fool, he would definitely understand.

Murong Narong said, "...Miss Yun is really straightforward. Aren't you afraid of being blamed by me?"

Yun Tutu, "I am just a passerby to your majesty, and I am not your subject. Your majesty summoned us to the palace just to talk about this matter?"

……

Liu Fengning was sweating nervously on the side, and the servants in the hall tried to keep their heads down as much as possible. They all felt that Yun Tutu was too bold. How could he speak to His Majesty like that?

The chief eunuch at the side was the first to lose his temper and shouted angrily, "How dare you..."
