Outside the palace, Jin Jiuyin's cousin Lin Donglin and his wife visited each other for a rare visit.

Jiuyin was a little surprised. Although they were in the capital, they did not meet each other for many times, and most of them were when Jiuyin returned to their parents' home. Lin Donglin and his wife were both decent and were born to be afraid of high-ranking families, and were also very uncomfortable, and were afraid of being said to be attached to the powerful.

This is the first time that the couple visited together.

In addition to the initial greetings, Lin Donglin sat aside, mostly because of his cousin Lu. I don’t know if it was an illusion, but Jin Jiuyin always felt that his cousin looked a little depressed, and he couldn’t help but take a few more glances, making him even more uncomfortable.

Jin Jiuyin was sure now, and her cousin must have something to do, so she flashed her eyes and asked, "I see Brother Donglin is not in good spirits. Are you too tired from the work department's errand?"

"No, no." Lin Donglin was stunned for a moment before coming to his senses, and waved his hands repeatedly, "The Ministry of Works is not busy, so you all are easy to get along with."

He was originally a down-to-earth person, and when he entered the Ministry of Works, he would do whatever he ordered. Although Shangfeng didn't know that he was the prince's elder brother-in-law, he also knew that he had come in after the prince's way, so he did not make things difficult for him. On the contrary, he took good care of him.

"Brother Donglin is this?" Jin Jiuyin was a little puzzled.

Lin Donglin's face turned red and he looked very helpless. Jin Jiuyin was even more puzzled.

Lu still couldn't stand it and said, "The Crown Princess is all her family, and she is not afraid of you making jokes when she says it. Your brother is honest. If he doesn't encounter any trouble, he will be in vain. He is so worried at home that he can't even sleep. Otherwise, we can't bother my sister."

Jin Jiuyin understood, it was something that happened. She asked quickly: "What happened?"

"This-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lu glared at him and took over the conversation, "Crown Princess, that's the case."

As she told her, Jin Jiuyin understood that her cousin kindly sent a girl with a sprained foot to the clinic, but she was denied it.

"Don't she know that Brother Donglin has become a kiss?" Jin Jiuyin asked.

Lu was helpless, "I know, her father and brother initially yelled that her husband had ruined the reputation of the girl and forced her husband to take responsibility. Later, he learned that his husband had a wife and a son, so he took a step back and said that being a concubine would be a concubine. But you know, our family is all responsible, and the mud on his feet has not been washed clean. How can he be a concubine? He can't afford it.

"I'm thanking the prince for his blessing. My husband has joined the Ministry of Works. But if it weren't for your help, our family would really not be able to live in Beijing." Just renting a house would have to spend half of his salary, let alone food, drink, clothing and human relations.

Lin Donglin's face turned redder, "Grandfather said he would take a concubine to mess up his family, and we brothers would break his legs if we dared to get rich."

Lu continued, "We have explained it to her family very well, but her family just doesn't make sense. She insists that her daughter has lost her innocence, and her husband has to be responsible for it. The world is so conscience that her husband doesn't even touch her, and even stays far away from her on the way to the clinic. The girl is not a good girl. She asked her, but she doesn't say anything, but she keeps crying, as if her husband is doing something about her."

"No, no." Lin Donglin waved his hands repeatedly, "My grandfather told me that everyone in the capital is smart, so I should be more careful and not meddling in other people's business. I just saw that the girl was pitiful and fell to the ground for a long time but didn't get up."

"You are just a bad intention!" Lu accused.

Lin Donglin also regretted it and became even more frustrated. He was obviously kind to help others, but he was cheated on him. If he wanted some money, he would give it to him and insisted on being a concubine. How could he be sorry for his wife? His wife was virtuous and considerate, filial to her parents-in-law and elders, and gave birth to a son for him. How could he be sorry for her?

Besides, he just became an official and put a concubine at home. What good impression do others have of him? He is not stupid. Is he the only sister of Jiuyin when he hasn't seen the prince?

If she had known that the girl's father and brother were difficult and unreasonable, she would be pitiful. Even if she had only one breath left, he would have walked around the road, hiding as far as he could.

"What does this girl's family do?" If she is an ordinary rogue, she would probably not have the courage to blackmail the imperial court. Although Lin Donglin is just an inconspicuous small official, she is a high-ranking existence in the eyes of the people.

This suddenly came to the point. Lin Donglin and his wife looked at each other, and Lu said, "That family said that his family was a royal family and the same ancestor as the current emperor. If we had a concubine from his family, it was like a smoke from the ancestral tomb. We also threatened us that if we did not agree to accept his family, we would let our husband lose his official position and lose his life. But I think, his family's clothes are ordinary, even worse than ordinary wealthy families. But since he dared to yell like this, it was obvious that he had some support."

This is also the reason why the couple came to find Jin Jiuyin. There are powerful people everywhere in the capital. If you go out for a walk, you may be a high-ranking official. If it is a royal family, they can't afford to offend them.

"This is not a glorious thing. Brother Donglin is a shameless person and dare not ask his colleagues for information about his family. He is afraid that his family will make trouble again if they hear any rumors."

Lin Donglin and his wife don’t understand, but Jin Jiuyin understands it.

Royal Family? There are too many people in the royal family, and not all of them are princes, princes, etc. There are also many royal family members who have a reputation but are too poor to eat.

If they did not lie, it would be this latter royal family.

There was an official who wanted to betroth his daughter to Qian Xiaokang, and then there was another royal family that wanted to force his daughter to his cousin as a concubine. Jin Jiuyin had to think more about it. Is this a conspiracy, or just want to borrow some help?

Seeing that Jin Jiuyin didn't speak, Lin Donglin and his wife were very uneasy, "Crown Princess, if it really doesn't work, let my husband accept it. At worst, I can be my ancestors." Lu gritted his teeth and said.

"This is not the case." Jin Jiuyin waved her hand, "I know this, I'll ask someone to check it out, don't worry, even if his family is really a royal family, the emperor is reasonable, and Brother Donglin is not in a disadvantage."

The two of them were obviously relieved, and Lu was very grateful, "It made the Crown Princess worry."

Jin Jiuyin didn't care, "Why do you have to say two families in the family?" Maybe Brother Donglin was still implicated by her.

Lin Donglin felt guilty, "I can't help the Crown Princess, but I'm really ashamed of my brother!"

Jin Jiuyin smiled, "Who said he didn't help? Didn't Brother Donglin help me take care of my grandmother and Brother Jia, and Brother Zhi?"

After seeing off his cousin and his wife, Jin Jiuyin asked someone to investigate the matter. As she guessed, the family saw that the cousin was the family of the Crown Princess. This relationship is that his girl married her and even if she was a concubine, she would be better than the peasant woman in her family? As long as she wins over the man, wouldn’t she indirectly cling to the prince?
