Chapter 1007 Worry-free food and clothing
Lin Wan hooked her lips slightly, smiled a little bitterly, hugged Concubine Yu's arm, leaned on her shoulder, and sighed faintly: "Aunt Yu, in fact, I sometimes really think about it, if we can leave here together, leave the capital, and leave the palace, how good it would be! Even if it is to find a barren mountain isolated from the world, we will open the mountain and farm, be self-sufficient and at ease. ”
Concubine Yu smiled, stretched out her other hand, patted Lin Wan's back gently, and said in a low voice: "Wan'er, when you are tired and want to escape, you may have such thoughts, but no one has ever done this." Because of the glory and wealth, when you have it, maybe you feel dispensable. But once you lose it, you may find it difficult to move an inch. ”
Lin Wan looked at Concubine Yu in a daze, with a trace of confusion and disappointment in her eyes.
Concubine Yu looked at Lin Wan with a smile and continued: "If you have nothing and nothing, who do you let help you open up mountains and farm? Who will help you raise silkworms and weave cloth, and help you wash clothes and cook? Even if the people around you are willing to follow you to endure hardships, can you bear it? Besides, do you let Qi'er and Ruichen, the people who lead the troops to fight, go to farm and carry water?"
Lin Wan hung her head in disappointment, leaned into the arms of the jade concubine in frustration, and muttered: "Okay, it's because I'm tired and want to escape, but I have nowhere to escape......"
Concubine Yu smiled lightly, patted Lin Wan's hand, and said, "Wan'er, in fact, if you think about it from another angle, people are very tired to live. Those farmers, hawkers, and poor people are tired of their bodies for their livelihoods, and we are tired of our hearts. Maybe it's because we don't have to worry about food and clothing, so we will intrigue and find out our hearts to pursue more things. After a pause, he continued: "If you really let me leave the palace, I know what I should do, and maybe I will miss the days in the palace. The days in the palace are very lonely, so sometimes you also need to play a game of scheming and a game of competing for favor. ”
Lin Wan's heart was sour, she hugged Concubine Yu tightly, closed her eyes, and didn't say anything more.
Concubine Yu shook her body gently, patted Lin Wan's shoulder again and again, as if she was coaxing a baby to sleep, and whispered in her mouth: "I just hope that you and Qi'er are well, and I will be relieved......"
I don't know how long it took, Lin Wandu was about to fall asleep, and suddenly heard a footstep and slowly approached.
Lin Wan slowly opened his eyes, only to see that the person who came was Ximen Yuqing. He had already put on his prince's white clothes, his hair was tied up high with a jade crown, his brows were slightly frowned, his expression was lonely, and he held the Xuantie bone fan that Lin Wan had given him by borrowing Tong Xinyan's hand.
Seeing Lin Wan open his eyes, Ximen Yuqing's face raised his signature smile again. Gently shaking the folding fan, he walked slowly, his eyes were lazy, and his posture was elegant.
Ximen Yuqing walked closer, first nodded politely to Concubine Yu, and then, with a faint smile, said kindly: "The little nephew has seen Aunt Yu." ”
Concubine Yu smiled and nodded, very satisfied with Ximen Yuqing's attitude. She often thinks that if there is no Qi'er, this Prince Ximen is actually a very good choice for Wan'er. Of course, Concubine Yu knew that it was precisely because everyone thought so that even Lu Qishan was a little confused.
Lu Manting has always insisted that the relationship between Lin Wan and Zhou Tianqi is extraordinary, so Lu Qishan must take precautions in advance. Lu Qishan was also a little suspicious, so she found opportunities to test Zhou Tianqi and Lin Wan many times. Although Lin Wan and Zhou Tianqi passed the test safely every time, they still did not completely dispel Lu Qishan's suspicions about them.
However, Ximen Yuqing's excellence and persistence also made Lu Qishan suspicious of Lu Manting. Maybe it's because Lu Manting loves Zhou Tianqi too much, so she suffers from gains and losses. Seeing that Zhou Tianqi and Lin Wan were close together, he suspected that the two of them had a personal relationship.
Otherwise, with Lu Qishan's personality and style, she would never let Lin Wan go, let alone let her leave her sight.
Concubine Yu looked at Ximen Yuqing seriously, and suddenly asked something that surprised both Ximen Yuqing and Lin Wan. Concubine Yu frowned slightly, and asked word by word, "Ximen Xian, have you really put it down?"
Ximen Yuqing was stunned, of course he knew what Concubine Yu was asking, his eyes flashed, he glanced at Lin Wan quickly, and saw that Lin Wan's face was a little embarrassed, and quickly lowered his gaze, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Lin Wan lowered her eyelashes, looked at her intertwined fingers, and was a little panicked in her heart, listening intently to Ximen Yuqing's answer.
Ximen Yuqing thought for a long time before he slowly spoke: "Aunt Yu, I will never give up Wan'er." After a pause, his eyes looked at Lin Wan, and he continued: "However, I won't force it. If one day, Wan'er thinks that I am better than him and is willing to give me a chance, I will definitely take advantage of it. ”
Concubine Yu smiled and nodded, didn't say anything more, and turned her head to look at Lin Wan. There is no answer that can move people more than these few words, but Lin Wan did not raise his head, did not respond, and did not refuse.
Lin Wan's heart became more and more panicked, of course she would not respond, she wanted to refuse. However, how can she refuse such a confession? Could it be that she turned her face and made Ximen Yuqing die of this heart? But others have also said it, and they don't force it? You don't give him a chance, he doesn't force it, you give him a chance, he takes advantage of it, such a man makes people a little helpless.
Ximen Yuqing didn't embarrass Lin Wan for too long, reverted to his usual estrangement and indifference, and said politely: "Aunt Yu, Wan'er, I'm here to say goodbye to you, Jiang Hai, Xinhe, and Wuqi are all waiting outside, and the envoys of Xiling Kingdom have been waiting outside the city for most of the day." Originally, I wanted to send you on the boat and then break up, but the envoys couldn't wait anymore and sent Xinhe to urge. Besides, I know you don't like the goodbye scene, so let's leave it here. ”
Lin Wan raised his head and looked at Ximen Yuqing in a daze, but he didn't know what to say for a while.
Jin Ruoxin walked out of the room, smiled and said, "Brother Ximen, are you leaving? Have you had lunch? Xiaoqi has gone to prepare a meal, and will come in a while, do you want to finish eating together before leaving?"
Ximen Yuqing shook his head with a smile and said, "I have already had lunch with Haoran and Wuqi in Tingfeng Tower. After speaking, he hugged the fan, arched his hand, and said, "Ruoxin, Wan'er, have a good trip!"
Jin Ruoxin nodded and said with a smile: "It's not too early, it's better for you to leave early, otherwise I'm afraid that before dark, you won't be able to get to the next post station." After a pause, he said: "We will leave after dinner in a while, the carriage and the boat are ready, Brother Simon rest assured, we are closer than you, and maybe we will reach our respective destinations before you." ”
