The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 302

[Chapter 302: After All, It’s a Special Case]

Lin Tian naturally did not have any doubts about the Jiangbei villagers coming, but felt that it was reasonable.

After all, it was close to the Mid-Autumn Festival, and according to the simple nature of the farmers, it was impossible for them to come to repay him.

So Lin Tian simply did not think much about it, and returned to the study to study his way to the imperial examination.

After all, after the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, he would start preparing for the palace examination, and he would also have to register.

In general, time was very urgent.

As for tomorrow’s Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, Lin Tian actually did not take it too seriously.

So when the palace was busy inside and outside the palace, Lin Tian could still calm down and review his lessons in the study.

Lin Zuhua accidentally passed by Lin Tian’s study.

“The sky has indeed changed a lot. I believe that if you are in heaven, you will be happy to see this scene.”

Lin Zuhua stroked his beard and looked up at the moon.

It was close to August 15, and the moon was also particularly round.

When she was pregnant with Lin Tian, the lady had great expectations for Lin Tian.

Unfortunately, she passed away before she could see Lin Tian grow up.

After finishing speaking, Lin Zuhua stood by the window thoughtfully, looking at the light coming out of the house.

From time to time, the sound of paper flipping came from inside, which seemed extremely clear in this quiet night.

About half a quarter of an hour later, Lin Zuhua also returned to his study.

The next day.

Because the palace banquet would last for a long time, someone from the palace had already come to invite Lin Tian to the palace in the afternoon.

“His Royal Highness Prince Jing has arrived in the capital yesterday. If you have the chance, you must thank His Royal Highness Prince Jing.”

Lin Zuhua did not tell Lin Tian anything else, but mentioned Prince Jing.

When they were in Liangzhou City before, it was also thanks to His Royal Highness Prince Jing who had been taking care of their Lin family.

Later, when they came to the capital, Lin Zuhua did not dare to contact Prince Jing because he was worried about being affected by other party disputes.

Now that there is such an opportunity, Lin Tian must thank him properly.

“Of course, if there is a chance, I will definitely thank His Royal Highness Prince Jing.”

Lin Tian nodded.

Thinking of the letter Xu Wenxuan sent him last night, his eyes suddenly became deep.

It seems that today’s palace banquet must be very eventful!

After a few more words, the people from the palace reminded Lin Tian in a subtle way.

Although this place is in the downtown area, it is still a distance away from the palace. If you don’t get on the road, you may be late.

“Then you go first, be careful.”

Lin Zuhua nodded and asked Lin Tian to go quickly.

Tang Chuchu hasn’t been back to the Lin Mansion for a long time. Because today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, she returned to the Lin Mansion yesterday night.

At this time, she was also seeing Lin Tian off at the door.

I haven’t seen Lin Tian for a long time. Today, he looks more handsome in his gorgeous clothes.

“Master, be careful!”

Tang Chuchu said in a low voice.

Her voice was not loud, but Lin Tian seemed to have heard it. He turned his head and looked at her meaningfully.

The two looked at each other across the crowd, and suddenly, Tang Chuchu lowered her head.

“What’s wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?”

Lu Wan’er noticed that something was wrong with Tang Chuchu at the first time, and asked with some concern.

Before, the two sisters thought that Tang Chuchu was a love rival, but later they found that they were all pitiful people, so they also had some good feelings for Tang Chuchu.

After all, they were all people who stayed with Lin Tian, and they must not have any grudges.

“Nothing, I guess I didn’t sleep well last night.”

Tang Chuchu is indeed a shopkeeper who can take charge of a situation on her own. She has long been able to keep a straight face, so she returned to normal immediately.

She looked at Lu Wan’er with some gratitude, and after explaining a few words casually, Lu Wan’er was relieved.

As for Lin Tian, when he came to the palace, the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet was about to begin.

Most of the officials had already taken their seats, and he was wearing a fourth-rank official uniform, which made him stand out in the crowd.

“Lord Lin, your seat is…”

The eunuch saw Lin Tian and hurriedly came up to him, wanting to lead him to his seat.

But the second half of the sentence was immediately silenced, because he found that there seemed to be no seat for Lin Tian at this palace banquet!

Several people who had been observing Lin Tian in the dark smiled knowingly.

Sure enough.

The entire palace banquet was hosted by the Queen alone. How could she forget that Lin Tian was specially allowed by the Emperor to attend the palace banquet?

It was clearly intentional!

“My Lord, it must be that the subordinates were not careful enough. Please calm down. I will find a solution right away!”

The eunuch who looked like a small steward lowered his head and said to Lin Tian, but there was no apology in his tone, but some teasing.

He was just an official with copper ornaments, how could he be qualified to attend their Mid-Autumn Festival banquet!

“It’s okay, you guys make the arrangements, I’ll just stand here and wait.”

However, Lin Tian waved his hand without much care, put his hands behind his back and snapped his fingers.

His careless look made people feel that he was not presentable.

As expected, the poor boy from the remote countryside was uneducated, and he deserved that he had no seat.

At this time, all the officials had taken their seats, and the families brought by those high-ranking officials were also seated in the female guest seats on the side.

Although the protection between men and women in Da Chu was not serious, men and women were still seated separately at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, but there was no curtain in the middle.

Until now, the only people who stood up were Lin Tian and some maids and eunuchs, so Lin Tian was particularly eye-catching.

The officials who usually had a good impression of Lin Tian also felt very embarrassed and turned their heads away from looking at Lin Tian.

Yang Sheng glanced at him but didn’t speak at the first time.

“How did you do it? How dare you neglect Lord Lin? Do you know that Lord Lin was specially allowed by the emperor to attend the palace banquet?”

Sure enough, Liu Zhang soon noticed this side and came forward with a knowing smile.

Then he looked at Lin Tian with a hypocritical face.

“Prime Minister Liu, calm down, I will arrange it

right away!” The eunuch was frightened to kneel on the ground when he saw that the father of the country actually stood up to speak for Lin Tian.

He had just mocked Lin Tian, but he didn’t expect that Lin Tian and Liu Zhang were actually related!

“Go quickly!”

Liu Zhang was angry, and the eunuch quickly sneaked away in fear.

“Minister Lin was still wronged. These servants are too good at reading people’s faces and doing things. They actually forgot that Lord Lin was specially allowed by the emperor to attend the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet!”

Listening to his tone, people who didn’t know would think that Liu Zhang was speaking up for Lin Tian.

But in the eyes of those who were interested, they could clearly hear that Liu Zhang was deliberately emphasizing that Lin Tian was not worthy of attending the palace banquet.

“It’s okay. After all, it’s a special case. There has never been such a thing before.”

Lin Tian was calm.
