Transmigration into a Book: My Lord, Your Wife Has Taken Another Concubine for You

Chu Yunheng strongly agreed with Chu Yunxuan's statement, "Brother is right. We would feel more at ease if Mother returned to the Marquis's residence to recuperate after her injury."

Chu Mochen patted Chu Yunheng on the back again, annoyed. "Can't you have some opinions of your own? You're just like your older brother's yes-man."

Chu Yunheng looked at his older brother with a pitiful expression, his intention clear: save him, save him quickly.

Chu Yunxuan lived up to Chu Yunheng's expectations and said to Lin Yanran:

"Mother, Father doesn't care about your safety. Don't you feel unhappy? Don't you need something nice to make you happy?"

Lin Yanran looked at Chu Mochen.

Chu Mochen... "Alright, I'll give you the silver notes."

Before Lin Yanran could ask further, Chu Mochen added, "Twenty thousand taels, I understand."

Throughout the rest of the journey, Chu Mochen refused to speak, sitting on one side of the carriage like a giant human mushroom. If someone gave him 20,000 taels of silver, he could easily beat up not only the Han family but also his brother-in-law.

When Chu Mochen and his entourage arrived at the Marquis's residence, Le An and Kong Lingyi were already waiting at the carriage stop. Lin Yanran was helped off the carriage by Chu Yunxuan.

She was then surrounded by Le An and Kong Lingyi.

Le'an looked at her mother-in-law's injured hand and was furious. "The Princess Consort is really crazy. She even dares to hit her married sister-in-law."

"Mother, next time you go back to your parents' home, bring your daughter-in-law with you. What's she doing hitting an old woman like you? If she's so tough, let's fight the two of us."

Kong Lingyi looked at the injury on Lin Yanran's wrist and said, "No wonder the Han family has not produced anyone who can bring honor to the family in recent generations. Their rude manners are truly appalling."

Lin Yanran smiled and comforted the two of them, "Don't worry, it's just a little red on your hand, it's not even a minor injury, it'll be fine in a few days."

A group of people escorted Lin Yanran back to her courtyard. Then, Chu Yunxuan had the royal physician, who had been waiting, take Lin Yanran's pulse and prescribe medicine to calm her nerves and relieve her pain.

Lin Yanran originally thought that once she drank the medicine, these people would disperse.

As a result, after she finished drinking her medicine, these people were still discussing how to keep watch over her while she was sick, which left Lin Yanran stunned:

"No, my hand is just a little red, and my wrist is bruised. You guys are going to make a big fuss about taking care of me. That's just too much."

Go back to sleep! If you stay here, I'll worry about you all at night and won't be able to sleep soundly.

Chu Yunxuan wanted to say something more, but then he saw their mother shooing them away like mosquitoes. In the end, they could only give Wen Lan and the others a few more instructions before leaving with reluctance.

Seeing that both Chu Yunxuan and Chu Yunheng's couples had left, Lin Yanran realized that only Chu Mochen was left standing there.

Lin Yanran asked irritably, "Everyone's left, what are you still standing here for?"

Chu Mochen remained silent, only taking the box from Rong Wen's hand and opening it. "Will giving you silver notes make you feel better?"

Lin Yanran gestured for Mei to put the silver notes away. "I'm feeling much better now. You should go back to the front yard and rest!"

Chu Mochen offered himself up, "Do you want me to accompany you? I don't have to attend the morning court tomorrow."

Lin Yanran waved her hand dismissively, "I was worried you might accidentally upset me, so I just wanted some money to calm myself down."

Upon hearing this, Chu Mochen immediately spoke up, "If Madam has something to discuss, please send someone to the front yard to find me. I'm going back to the front yard now."

After finishing his sentence, Chu Mochen left quickly. He had only spent a little over a hundred taels of silver during his carefree days outside, but today he had lost twenty thousand taels.

After everyone had left, Lin Yanran asked Wenzhu to bring the medicine over and apply it to the other parts of her body.

Originally, Wen Zhu wanted to use medicinal wine to rub the bruises on Lin Yanran's body, but after only one rub, Lin Yanran broke out in a cold sweat and decisively rejected Wen Zhu's suggestion.

If it gets better slowly, so be it! Anyway, she's afraid of pain right now.

Lin Yanran resolutely refused, and Wenzhu didn't dare to force her. He could only brew some more blood-activating and stasis-removing medicine for Lin Yanran to drink.

After finishing all that, Lin Yanran used some random things and went to sleep.

In the following days, Lin Yanran stayed in the courtyard to recover from her injuries, rarely even getting out of bed, let alone going out.

Of course, Lin Yanran also knew that rumors were circulating that she had been seriously injured by the Han family and would need two or three months to recover.

The day after Lin Yanran and Han Shi fought, many things happened in connection with their fight.

First, the Crown Prince of Han was impeached for abducting a woman, which led to the destruction of her family. Then, the second son of the legitimate wife abducted farmland. The Duke of Han pleaded for his two sons in court.

The Emperor, understanding the past achievements of the Duke of Han, demoted the Duke to Earl.

The sons who were originally serving as two minor officials in the court were also ordered to go home and live off themselves. The emperor also ordered the Han family to select a new heir.

The Lady of Han had two legitimate sons and one daughter. She was choosing a new heir, which meant that the person who would inherit the family business in the future would have no connection with the Han family line.

Despite his injuries, Prince He submitted a memorial in court, requesting that Lin Jiangyu's position as heir apparent be revoked. The Emperor hesitated for a moment before granting the request.

If we're talking about who was the most confused by this whole affair, it would definitely be Lord Yuan.

His daughter married Lin Jiangyu because he was going to marry the heir of the Prince of the County. But when the child was only three years old, the heir of the Prince of the County was replaced. How could he not be stunned?

If he hadn't still had his senses, he would have wanted to impeach the prince for deceiving him into marriage right there in court.

So as soon as the court session ended, Lord Yuan immediately chased after Prince Lin Fengyu.

The two went into a private room at the teahouse to talk in detail. Lin Fengyu promised that if possible, he would give priority to Lin Jiangyu's son.

But this possibility is quite realistic.

That means if the Third Prince ascends to the throne, and his wife becomes the Empress, then the title bestowed upon Lin Fengyu will definitely be given priority to the son of the Empress's own sister.

Otherwise, Lin Jiangyu's branch of the family would be completely ineligible for a noble title.

After Lord Yuan learned of Lin Jiangyu's catchphrase, he felt embarrassed to insist that Prince He pass on the title to such a fool. Compared to wealth and honor, living was more important.

Giving the title to this kind of person is like being dragged into a trap at any moment, and the entire Yuan family might be implicated.

The Han family was indeed seriously injured this time. After Lin Jiangyu and Lin Jiangxing received the imperial decree that Lin Jiangyu had been stripped of his title as heir, the two brothers were stunned.

They both thought their father was just saying it casually, but they never expected that he would actually remove Lin Jiangyu from his position as heir apparent.

Originally, the two brothers had been staying by Han's bedside, but after receiving the imperial decree, they no longer cared whether Han was awake or not.

Lin Jiangyu and Lin Jiangxing's first reaction was to rush to beg their beloved grandparents.

To their surprise, their grandparents, who had always doted on them, refused to even see them.

Lin Jiangyu and Lin Jiangxing could only dejectedly kneel in Lin Fengyu's courtyard again, hoping that this would appease their father.
