Chapter Fifty-Nine: Ruichen Returns
Lin Wan thought seriously for a moment, shook his head at Concubine Yu, and said seriously and calmly: "No, I changed my mind again." We can't take risks, there are so many eyes and ears in the palace, if people are suspicious, he and we will be pushed to the forefront. Since he's fine, I'll go back first. ”
Concubine Yu nodded with satisfaction and said, "Then I'll let Qizhen and Li Tong send you out, the palace gate is about to close." ”
"Hmm. Lin Wan nodded obediently.
Concubine Yu took Lin Wan's hand, sent her to the door, and instructed Qizhen and Gonggong Li to send her out of the palace together.
When I was about to arrive at the gate of the harem, I met Lu Manting who was walking in the forest with a maid ring. Lin Wan didn't want to see her, she wanted to avoid it, but Lu Manting had already seen Lin Wan, and walked over quickly, her face full of surprise, it seemed that she really regarded Lin Wan as a good sister.
Lu Manting looked at Lin Wan with a reluctant face and said, "Sister Wan'er, are you going out of the palace?"
Lin Wan nodded and said: "Well, I haven't seen Aunt Yu for a long time, Aunt Yu took me into the palace to get together, and I just talked for a while, it's almost time to close the palace gate, I have to go back quickly." ”
Lu Manting's beautiful eyes lowered and said dejectedly: "I thought that my sister would stay in the palace for a few days, and I thought about talking to my sister again." ”
Lin Wan smiled slightly, and sincerely invited: "When my sister leaves the palace, you can come to Lin Xiang's Mansion to play with me." ”
Lu Manting also smiled, two charming dimples appeared on her cheeks, and said, "I won't go back until after the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I'll live in the palace for a while." However, we will definitely see each other again at the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I would love to see my sister's talents. ”
Lin Wan shook her head and hurriedly said: "Sister Lu, don't laugh at me, how can my sister's talent get into my sister's eyes!" Lin Wan didn't wait for Lu Manting to say anything more, and was about to leave: "Okay, Sister Lu, I'm leaving, I can't get out when the palace gate is closed." ”
As he spoke, Lin Wan waved goodbye to Lu Manting, and walked out briskly with Wang Qi and Qingtong.
Lu Manting stood in place, watching her go out of the door of the harem before turning around and walking towards Yunxia Palace.
On the carriage back home, Lin Wan closed his eyes, leaned on the high soft pillow, frowned slightly, and tried to make himself think of nothing, but the sadness lingered.
Wang Qi and Qingtong sat quietly on both sides, looking at Lin Wan worriedly, but they couldn't do anything.
The gale drove very smoothly, and Lin Wan was about to fall asleep in a daze.
When he was about to arrive at the Prime Minister's Mansion, Gale was about to drive the carriage quietly around the back door, when suddenly a tall figure fell from the sky and stopped in front of the carriage.
Lin Wan felt that the carriage stopped suddenly, opened his eyes, lifted the curtain, and saw a man in armor standing opposite, the face under the helmet was not clear, but Lin Wan could feel that his hot gaze was resting on him, and it felt very familiar, it was an instinctive closeness.
Lin Wan slowly got out of the carriage and walked towards the man. Walking to a place where the man's face could be seen clearly, Lin Wan stopped. I saw that the man was slender, his eyebrows were delicate, his eyes were blazing, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and the bronze armor that wrapped his whole body shone golden in the setting sun.
The man slowly took off his helmet, revealing slightly dark skin, a straight nose, gentle eyebrows, thick black hair, and a young face.
Lin Wan saw this young man who was seven points similar to herself, and ran towards him, the man threw his helmet aside and greeted her with open arms.
Lin Wan threw herself into the man's arms, her little face clinging to the cold armor, and she still felt warm in her heart.
"Wan'er, my brother is back, you don't have to be grounded anymore, you don't have to go through the back door anymore, you can go wherever you want, and you don't have to go out sneakily anymore. Lin Ruichen stroked Lin Wan's long hair with his big hand, and his voice trembled gently.
"Brother......" Lin Wan's tearbank collapsed again, she felt that she had really become very fragile recently, could love really make people's hearts weak?
After a long time, Lin Wan raised his head and smiled at Lin Ruichen, his eyebrows and eyes were crooked, his head was held high, and he proudly announced: "Well, I can do whatever I want, lawless!"
Lin Ruichen laughed, slapped his big hand on Lin Wan's shoulder, and Lin Wan exaggerated the pain.
Lin Ruichen smiled slightly, stretched out his big hand, and said, "Let's go, let's go home." ”
Lin Wan nodded happily and put his little hand in Lin Ruichen's hand, feeling full of strength in an instant.
The brother and sister walked hand in hand towards the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and Gale still drove the carriage around the back door to park.
Lin Zhihuai had already returned to the house first, and he had explained to Mr. Wu and Du's mother, and everyone welcomed the fourth prince back to the house with a happy face.
The doorman was a little puzzled, why did Miss Seven come back with the fourth son when she didn't go out? But with Lin Ruichen here, everyone invariably ignored this question.
Lin Wan first went to his Dawn Xuan with Lin Ruichen. Chenxixuan is next to the big study in the outer courtyard, although there has been no owner for more than a year, but Peng's mother, who is in charge, used to be Lin Ruichen's nurse, and was sent by the Zhao family. The little maid and the maid are also well-behaved, bowing their heads and eyes, respectful, not saying much and not looking at much, when the master does not need it, he is far away.
When Lin Ruichen came out after changing his clothes, he went to the Autumn Garden with Lin Wan, and when the two knelt in front of Zhao Liniang together, Zhao Liniang and Chen's mother both shed tears of joy.
Lin Ruichen respectfully kowtowed to Zhao Liniang three times, raised his head, his eyes were full of tears, and said sadly: "Mother, my son is back, my son is not filial, and I have made my mother and sister suffer, please punish my mother!"
Zhao Liniang couldn't cry, and said for a long time: "It's good to come back, Chen'er, get up quickly, my mother doesn't blame you, my mother is proud of you." Then he turned to Lin Wan, who was kneeling beside Lin Ruichen, and said, "Wan'er, quickly help your brother up." ”
Lin Wan hurriedly stood up with a smile, held Lin Ruichen's arm and said, "Brother, get up quickly!"
Lin Ruichen got up and sat on the chair next to Zhao Liniang, and said, "Mother, my sister has already told me what happened at home during this time, and my sister is very capable and handles it very well. Now that your son is back, you can recuperate with peace of mind, everything is with us!"
Zhao Liniang nodded, looking at this pair of children, her smile was full of relief.
Lin Ruichen told about life in the army, his uncle's teachings to him, and the love between brothers in the army. There are also achievements in the battle with South Vietnam, and honors received after meritorious service. changed the seriousness of a soldier, and spoke with eyebrows, and was completely a child who invited merit in front of his mother.
The two children gathered around Zhao Liniang and talked, until Mrs. Lin sent Du's mother to invite them, and then they went to the Cixin Hall for dinner together.
