On the day when Yuan Xiang and the four princes got married, He Linwan heard that the road from Zhengyang Street to the gate of the palace was crowded with people watching the excitement, He Linwan did not go, her grandfather told Wei that girls should not always go out by themselves when they are old, and they were said to have no rules.

After Yuan Xiang got married, he moved into the Four Princes' Mansion, and there were even fewer opportunities to meet He Linwan, but He Linwan sent someone to inquire, and on the day when the Four Princes accompanied Yuan Xiang back to the door, Yuan Xiang's complexion looked very good, and He Linwan was relieved.

On this day, He Linwan went to check on Li Heng and Xiao Mu's martial arts practice, and when he walked into the martial arts training ground, he found that the three people were squatting together to fold gold ingots with gold foil paper.

"What are you doing here?" He Linwan looked at the small pile of folded ingots on the ground and asked suspiciously.

Xiao Mu, the only one who could say good things, hurriedly said: "Brother Heng said that two days is the death day of the old queen mother, and he and his brother used to secretly burn some gold ingots for the old queen mother every year. In the past few years, his brother was not in the capital, so he burned it to the old queen mother himself. ”

He Linwan looked at Li Xiaoheng in surprise, "You folded these these?"

Li Xiaoheng rolled his eyes, "Don't say anything?" (otherwise?)

"I don't stack well. Little Wood was a little ashamed, but he added quickly, "But I'm not the worst." ”

"The worst" Xiaohuzi angrily threw away the gold leaf paper ball in his hand that had been crumpled by him.

He Linwan looked at Li Xiaoheng with his head down, and his serious ingots were a little emotional.

After the death of King Jin and the first emperor, the people of the Jin Palace, still lived a good life, because of the protection of the old queen mother, even the emperor had no way to show the faces of the people in the Jin Palace.

I heard that the old queen mother loved King Jin and Princess Anyi from the first queen very much, and Princess Anyi was even brought up by the old queen mother herself. Love the house and Wu, the old queen mother is also very protective of the children and grandchildren of King Jin and Princess Anyi. When the old queen mother died, Li Heng should have been only four or five years old, and it was rare that he still remembered.

He Linwan comforted Li Heng and said: "Every year when the Queen Mother dies, sacrifices will be arranged in the palace. ”

Li Heng didn't appreciate it when he heard this, and said impatiently: "Gambling on East Servant Xi Fan, West Fan Golden Paper." ”

The well-behaved little wooden man saw that Li Heng was struggling to speak, and hurriedly helped him explain: "I also told Brother Heng this before, but Brother Heng said that the ancestor didn't like the tribute in the palace, she only liked gold. When the old queen mother died, she hid three large jars of gold and secretly distributed them to him, his brother, and his cousin, and no one else had a share. ”

He Linwan: "......"

Li Heng nodded triumphantly.

Xiao Mu continued: "Brother Heng said to the old queen mother at that time, and he also gave her a lot of gold in the future, and the old queen mother laughed so much that she couldn't see it! ”

Li Heng continued to nod on the side.

He Lin couldn't help but sigh at night.

"By the way, Sister He, Brother Heng said that he wanted to go to a place to burn these gold ingots on the day of the old lady's death, is it okay?" Xiao Mu looked at He Linwan with blank eyes.

Li Heng also looked at it dumbfounded.

He Linwan looked at them with the same expression and touched her forehead weakly, she asked Li Heng, "Where is it?"

Li Heng was a little hesitant when he heard this, as if he didn't want to expose the location.

Xiao Mu whispered to persuade him: "Brother Heng, if you don't make it clear, my sister won't let you go! Although that place was only known to you and Brother Shizi before, even if we knew, we promise that we will never say it!"

Li Heng nodded reluctantly, probably because he was too hard to say and easy to guess wrong, he picked up a stick and wrote three words on the ground: Yanming Lake.

"Yanming Lake?" He Lin was a little surprised, although Yanming Lake is a lake, but the lake is full of painting boats of flower buildings at night, and it is a place to eat flowers and wine.

Perhaps seeing the strangeness in He Linwan's eyes, Li Heng wrote indignantly: "What are you thinking! It's my ancestor who likes to listen to small songs! Once she heard that people sang small songs on Yanming Lake, and told us that she wanted to come out and listen to them! It's a pity that her old man never had a chance to come out after entering the palace. Hey, let me go!

He Linwan thought about it, but nodded and said, "Yes, but I will find someone to follow you secretly." ”

Li Heng reluctantly nodded and agreed.

Next, Li Heng didn't make any trouble, but obediently folded his gold ingots.

On the day of the death of the old queen mother, after the sky darkened, Li Heng went out through the back door of the He family, and Xiao Mu followed him to cover Li Heng.

Xiaohuzi volunteered to He Linwan to supervise them so that they would not cause trouble outside. He Linwan looked at Xiaohuzi's serious appearance and allowed him to go.

Li Heng and Xiao Mu both have disfigurements on their faces, plus a little tiger, the three of them together will not arouse suspicion. He Linwan originally wanted Gao Feng to send someone to follow, but thinking that the less people knew about Li Heng's identity, the better, so he gave up.

But less than a quarter of an hour after the three of them went out, He Linwan couldn't sit still, she always felt as if she had missed something, which made her feel a strong uneasiness in her heart.

After thinking about it, He Linwan also followed him to Yanming Lake, and left a message for the fox of "Dark Lin" when he left.

At this time, Yanming Lake is the most lively time of the day, with lingering songs, beautiful songs, and the sound of men drinking and laughing drifting far away to the shore.

Because He Linwan came out quickly, she saw the three people who had just walked to the shore from a distance, and when she saw people, He Linwan's breath in her heart was relieved.

It's a pity that this breath didn't loosen for long.

There are also more than a dozen painting boats parked on the shore, these painting boats parked on the shore have not yet pulled the guests, and the flower girls in the painting boat are laughing and laughing through the bamboo curtains on the painting boat, playing the piano, so as to attract guests. Today, the girls who stopped on the shore spoke much quieter, and the one who played the piano had already played several wrong notes.

He Linwan looked at the painting boats carefully, and her eyes suddenly froze, she found that the waterline of the dozen or so painting boats that should have been empty was very deep, which showed that there were either heavy objects on the boat or many people were hidden.

Seeing that Li Heng and the three of them, who were carrying a big cloth bag, were about to pass by those painting boats, He Linwan immediately shouted: "Brother Jie!"

Xiao Mu immediately looked back, and when he saw He Linwan, he seemed to be a little puzzled.

He Linwan didn't wait for him to speak, and said angrily: "Don't come back soon! If you let my mother know that you came to this kind of place with someone to watch the excitement, you have to peel your skin!"
