Hearing Lin Xiuming’s question, Lin Wanyun spoke softly, “What does it matter to me if the Palace Master returns? I’m not the master of the Mysterious Moon Palace.”

At this point, Lin Wanyun glanced at Lin Xiuming and then continued, “Doesn’t the North Prince treat you well in Yan County, running to the tavern in Mysterious Moon Palace every day to drown your sorrows in wine?”

Lin Xiuming laughed and said, “Yun, you are a woman, you don’t understand a man’s thoughts. If I could, I wouldn’t want to come to North City.”

“Let’s not talk about me anymore. I have something else I need to discuss with you.”

Lin Wanyun asked with curiosity, “What is it?”

Lin Xiuming asked with a smile, “You are still at the North Prince Mansion, right?”

Although Lin Wanyun was only a foster daughter adopted by Lin Gaoyuan, the relationship between Lin Xiuming and Lin Wanyun was relatively harmonious; Lin Wanyun had even taught Lin Xiuming martial arts in the past.

Even though Lin Wanyun had left the Lin Mansion and joined the Mysterious Moon Palace, when the two met, they could speak openly and frankly without feeling distant from each other.

Lin Wanyun answered, “I am now the Deputy Guard Commander in the inner courtyard of the North Prince Mansion.”

Hearing this, Lin Xiuming was somewhat surprised; he did not expect Lin Wanyun, who was from the Mysterious Moon Palace, to become the Deputy Guard Commander in the inner courtyard of the North Prince Mansion.

Although she was only a deputy commander, this was enough to prove how much trust the North Prince placed in Lin Wanyun, in the Mysterious Moon Palace, as Lin Wanyun was a protector of the Palace, representing its interests.

Lin Xiuming said, “I didn’t expect the North Prince to trust the Mysterious Moon Palace so much, there must be some kind of cooperation between the North Prince and the Mysterious Moon Palace, right?” free𝑤ebnovel.com

Immediately alert, Lin Wanyun quickly asked, “Xiuming, you’re not asking these questions because my foster father sent you to probe for information, are you?”

Lin Gaoyuan was now the Left Minister of the court, a member of the Great Sum Dynasty, and with Lin Xiuming being his son, Lin Xiuming’s sudden inquiries about the Mysterious Moon Palace couldn’t help but make Lin Wanyun suspect whether her foster father wanted to find out something.

Or was it the Sum Emperor who wanted to know something and sent Lin Xiuming to test her?

Lin Xiuming immediately said, “That’s not it; I was just curious and asking casually.”

“Right, Dad told me to tell you that you’re already in your thirties, it’s time to marry, and he thinks the North Prince is a good match.”

“It’s perfect since you’re the Guard Commander in the inner courtyard; you could use the opportunity to connect and develop a rapport with the North Prince.”

Hearing this, Lin Wanyun’s beautiful eyes lifted, her brows slightly furrowed, and she said with a feeling of speechlessness, “Does my foster father really think this?”

“The North Prince is only seventeen years old, and I’m already in my thirties this year; how could I possibly marry the North Prince? The mother of the North Prince and I are sworn sisters, and if I married him, wouldn’t our generational rankings be a mess?”

“What is my foster father thinking, how could he have such a preposterous idea?”

Seeing such a strong reaction from Lin Wanyun, Lin Xiuming laughed and said, “Yun, the Sky Wolf King’s consort is also much older, isn’t she? And yet she married the North Prince.”

“What’s the big deal about being in your thirties? Dad said the North Prince has been deprived of love since he was young, and he likes mature women who are older. Look at Chu Yuqin; she’s quite advanced in age too and stays at the North Prince Mansion all the same.”

Lin Wanyun immediately said, “Whatever my foster father thinks, go back and tell him to drop this ridiculous idea as soon as possible.”

“Now that I’ve chosen to join the Mysterious Moon Palace, I have no plans to marry in this lifetime, let alone to a man more than ten years my junior like the North Prince.”

Lin Xiuming shrugged his shoulders and then said, “Alright then, I’ll tell Dad when I get back that you don’t wish to marry the North Prince.”

At this point, Lin Xiuming reminded her, “Yun, even though you are now with the Mysterious Moon Palace, I still want to warn you: Dad is planning to support the North Prince, so if the Mysterious Moon Palace intends to harm the North Prince, you should decide for yourself.”

Hearing this, Lin Wanyun was momentarily stunned and asked in confusion, “I remember my foster father never gets involved in matters related to the succession struggle, so why would he support the North Prince?”

Lin Xiuming spoke indifferently, “I don’t know about that. Perhaps he sees greater potential in the North Prince compared to the others, which is also one of the reasons he wants you to marry the North Prince.”

“Of course, now that you have left the Lin Family, who you marry is not for Dad to decide. At most, the Lin Family can be regarded as your maternal home when you get married.”

Lin Wanyun, as Lin Gaoyuan’s adopted daughter and having left the Lin Mansion, had full power to decide her own life’s major events. Lin Gaoyuan’s wish for her to marry Lu Chen was merely his personal desire.

Whether Lin Wanyun was willing was entirely up to her.

However, if Lin Wanyun truly agreed to marry Lu Chen, she would surely marry off from Lin Gaoyuan’s household as his daughter, which would turn into a political marriage for the Lin Family.

Hearing Lin Xiuming’s words, Lin Wanyun felt fortunate that she had already left the Lin Mansion and become a protector of the Mysterious Moon Palace. If she were still in the Lin Mansion, her marital life might not be hers to decide.

Just as Lin Wanyun was about to say more, a soldier knocked on the door and said, “General, someone from the Prince’s Mansion is looking foryou!”

Hearing this, Lin Xiuming paused; he had been in North City for so long, and the North Prince had never sent someone to seek him out before.

Could it be that the war in the north had ended, and the North Prince wanted him to return?ƒreewebɳovel.com
