I traveled through time with my best friend.

Chapter 230 Lin Wanwan’s birthday.

Lin Yiyi frowned, put away her inner strength, and told Zhu Feng, "Zhu Feng, keep an eye on him."

"Yes."

After Lin Yiyi finished speaking, she used her Qinggong skills to leave quickly.

Lin House.

At this moment, the banquet was being arranged busily. Today was Lin Wanwan's birthday. Lin Yanfu originally didn't want to make a big deal about it, but he couldn't resist Zeng Qin's constant nagging in his ear, so he agreed.

Lin Wanwan was wearing a crimson brocade robe embroidered with butterflies. The robe had a bright crimson base and was embroidered with countless colorful butterflies. They were dancing gracefully on the robe, as if they were about to fly into the sea of flowers.

The robe was inlaid with golden tassels, which swayed gently with her steps, making her look even more graceful.

Several maids nearby smiled and praised: "Young lady, this outfit is so beautiful."

"Yes, today, Miss will definitely outshine all the other girls."

Lin Wanwan admired herself in the bronze mirror, her delicate makeup and pretty face. She didn't believe that she couldn't conquer the young marquis today.

"Is the young marquis here?" Lin Wanwan turned and asked Xiaohuan beside her.

Xiao Huan lowered her head with difficulty and said, "When I sent the invitation two days ago, the young marquis was not at home. It was the eldest son who received the invitation."

"Wang Zijun?" Lin Wanwan frowned slightly.

Xiao Huan answered respectfully: "Yes."

Lin Wanwan's eyes turned, could it be that the one coming today is the eldest master?

Thinking about it, she quickly said, "Let's go to mother's place." Then she lifted her skirt and walked out.

Xiaohuan followed quickly behind him.

On Zeng Qin's side, Mother Wang whispered something in Zeng Qin's ear, and Zeng Qin frowned and looked at Mother Wang and said, "Is that girl dying?"

Mother Wang replied with a worried look on her face, "Yes, that girl was covered in wounds and refused to say anything."

Zeng Qin put down the teacup in her hand and said solemnly: "I didn't expect that a lowly maid would be so stubborn. What benefits did Lin Yiyi give her to make her protect her like this?"

"I heard that Lin Yiyi saved that girl."

"Humph, saving her is nothing. The one who can give her a chance to live is the master. Go and tell her that if she doesn't want to live, don't say anything."

"Yes."

Just as Madam Wang ordered someone to do it, a maid ran in hurriedly, "Madam, the people from the Marquis' Mansion are here."

Zeng Qin stood up suddenly, eyes full of surprise, and asked hurriedly, "Is it the young marquis who came?"

"Yes, the eldest son and the young marquis are here."

"Oh, that's great." Zeng Qin immediately looked at Mother Wang happily and said, "Hurry up and tell Wan'er to get ready."

"Yes." Mother Wang also left happily.

Lin Wanwan met Wang Ziyan and Wang Zijun on the way here.

Wang Zijun was pulling Wang Ziyan, who looked reluctant, inside. There were many people in the front hall, and Lin Wanwan spotted Wang Ziyan, who was buried in the crowd, at a glance.

He quickly pulled Xiaohuan aside and secretly glanced towards Wang Ziyan with an excited look on his face.

"Xiao Huan, am I seeing things? Is that the young marquis?"

Xiao Huan looked over and then said with a smile: "Miss, you are not mistaken, that is the young marquis."

Lin Wanwan hid herself immediately, her chest heaving violently, she was excited and nervous. She thought the young marquis would not come, but he did.

Excitedly, he ordered Xiao Huan, "Hurry up, go get the things ready. I'll go to mother first."

"Yes."

After saying this, the master and servant went their separate ways.

In Zengqin Courtyard, Lin Wanwan ran in in a panic, shouting anxiously, "Mother, mother! The young marquis is here."

Zeng Qin looked at Lin Wanwan's panic, then frowned slightly and said, "You are already an adult, but you still don't know how to be more stable. If you marry into the Marquis' Mansion in the future, don't let people laugh at you."

"Mother, do you also know that the young marquis is here?" Lin Wanwan said happily.

Zeng Qin nodded slightly.

Lin Wanwan immediately sat aside and said impatiently: "Mother, the success or failure of my wealth and glory in the second half of my life depends on this one move, mother, are you sure?"

"Don't worry, mother has already taken care of it. This is our territory, how can anyone escape?"

Lin Wanwan felt relieved after hearing this. Zeng Qin stood up and said softly, "Okay, your father has to go to the palace for something. Let's go to the front yard quickly."

"Okay." Lin Wanwan smiled sweetly.

In the front yard.

Wang Ziyan sat next to Wang Zijun very reluctantly, with a resentful look on his face.

Wang Zijun was calmly greeting the people around him. Wang Ziyan met Wang Zijun on the way to find Lin Yiyi and was pulled over by him.

Seeing the people beside him walking away, he looked at Wang Zijun impatiently, "Brother, is that ok?"

Wang Zijun slowly placed the wine glass on the table, looked at Wang Ziyan with gentle eyes, and said: "Ziyan, today is the birthday of the second young lady in Prime Minister Lin's mansion. You and Miss Lin are engaged. Since they have sent out invitations, you must come."

“I’m afraid it’s not that simple?” Wang Ziyan said with narrowed eyes.

Wang Zijun paused for a moment, then said, "Zi Yan, stop making trouble. This is also what father meant."

"Don't use my father as an excuse. Don't think I don't know that since the Queen Mother gave up power, the ministers have been divided into two factions. One faction calls itself the Chengwang Party, and the other faction only recognizes the current emperor."

"And Prime Minister Lin is the leader of all the ministers, but he has always remained neutral." Prince Yan said as he glanced around. Seeing that there were more men than women in the courtyard, he continued, "Prime Minister Lin's daughter is celebrating her birthday. Some young ladies from aristocratic families should have come, so why are there so many ministers?"

Wang Zijun narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, "Did you figure it out?"

"I am not interested in your court affairs. Don't involve me in such matters in the future." Wang Ziyan said and turned to leave.

"Zi Yan!" Wang Zijun saw that Wang Ziyan was about to leave, so he quickly stood in front of Wang Ziyan and said in a gentle voice: "Minister Lin has always remained neutral, and there will be people in the court who will continue to speculate. Father means that he wants Minister Lin to stand firmly on the side of the emperor."

"Hehe, then I wonder which side brother is on?" Wang Ziyan asked indifferently.

Wang Zijun saw Wang Ziyan staring at him, as if he could see through him, but he was not afraid at all. He also stared at Wang Ziyan and said, "Ziyan, it's already this time, stop joking."

"I'm not kidding. Father is on the side of His Majesty, but you are not sure." Wang Ziyan said as he slowly approached Wang Zijun's ear and spoke in a penetrating voice, "I remember that King Cheng seemed to have saved your brother's life?"

Wang Zijun's eyes suddenly tightened, and then he clenched his hands slightly. He was shocked. How did he know that King Cheng saved my life?

Seeing that Wang Zijun was silent, Wang Ziyan raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Brother, now the affairs of the court are clear at a glance. Although King Cheng is brave and resourceful, he is not suitable to sit in that position. If he stands on the wrong side, it will harm the entire Marquisate. You... must think it over carefully?"
