Chapter 152: Heart Plum Garden
Feng Jintai deserves to have been in the officialdom for many years, and after returning home, he always felt a little unsettled, so he wrote a letter to Lin Juyao. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 In addition to imploring King Zhe to intercede for the collapse of Yifan's drunken gate, the info letter also specifically mentioned the vision of the Yanyan Temple. In Feng Jintai's opinion, this matter is likely to be just a coincidence, and it has nothing to do with King Zhe, but I don't offend anyone, and no one may not offend me, so let King Zhe know, at least there is no harm.
As soon as the letter was sent, the subordinate pushed the door to report, saying that the uncle of the mansion would return to Huaichuan and invite Feng Jintai to enter the mansion. Feng Jintai suddenly felt a little unhappy in his heart.
Gui Huaichuan is the nephew of Taifu Gui Shinan. After returning to Shinan to develop, he took his children and grandchildren to Xiao'an to settle down, and the old house was handed over to this eight-sided exquisite junior. If you want to talk about the level of rank, Feng Jintai is a dignified county guard, and he returned to Huaichuan but borrowed the light of Shinan and hung up a position engaged in by Taifu. can go in and out of the room every day, Gui Huaichuan relies on the high power of Gui Shi Nan, and looks high-spirited all day long, and never puts Feng Jintai in his eyes.
Feng Jintai was in a complicated mood today, so he simply asked his subordinates to push him back to Huaichuan, only saying that his body was a little uncomfortable.
"It's better for the lord to go. The subordinate said, "The one who came to invite the master was the housekeeper of the mansion, looking at that look, as if there was some irrepressible joy." ”
"Butler?" Feng Jintai hesitated.
This housekeeper was originally the son of Gui Huaichuan's nursing mother, because the two grew up eating the same mother's milk, and Gui Huaichuan has always had a very good relationship.
"When the master went to the Jueyan Temple, he picked up some people from the dock to return to the house, and he didn't see the specific people clearly, but looking at the demeanor of Gui Huaichuan, it seemed that he was more nervous than taking the Taifu back to his hometown. "Humanity.
Feng Jintai muttered secretly...... It seems that Xiao An must have come to some kind of character with a head and a face. But when that person came to Yifan, he directly let Gui Huaichuan access the mansion, obviously only looking at Gui Shinan's face, completely ignoring his existence, Feng Jintai became more and more unhappy in his heart.
"If you push it, you will push it," Feng Jintai said impatiently, "It's just a matter of a few drinks at a dinner, and it's just a haha on the scene another day, so what's the matter!"
"Yes. The subordinate had no choice but to bow down and retreat.
Feng Jintai lay on his back on the rocking chair and sighed sullenly. Gui Shinan has always been close to Yuan Muhuai, the right minister, and he has made great contributions to Emperor Ye's ascension to the throne, how can he afford to provoke him? Today's move is just a hint to the people who come that he, as the official of Yifan's parents, is not the master of Gui Huaichuan who can be sent and dispatched at will.
Yuan Muhuai and Feng Jintai sat up suddenly. The subordinate said that Gui Huaichuan's demeanor of welcoming that person into the mansion was even more nervous than welcoming Gui Shinan to return home, could it be that Yuan Muhuai had come to Yifan? Feng Jintai's scalp was numb for a while, and he hurriedly took off his robe and walked towards the front hall.
In the front hall, the housekeeper of the Guifu looked determined, still sitting on the chair, as if he knew that Feng Jintai would come later.
"What's the important thing about returning?" Feng Jintai got straight to the point.
"Lord Feng," the butler of the Guifu got up and said, "Lord Gui only said that the nobles are coming, and the officials from all walks of life in Yifan should go to pay homage, but other than that, there is nothing important." ”
Feng Jintai was suddenly stunned in his mind. Although the right prime minister Yuan Muhuai is in power, he is not a person who is in charge of the world and covers the sky with one hand, the left prime minister Xia and pheasant, the military department Shangshu Song Yu, and the household department Shangshu Lu Tinghe are all hindered by it, Yuan Muhuai will never be arrogant enough to let Yifan officials from all walks of life go to worship with great fanfare, unless they ...... Feng Jintai's expression was grim, and he said to the housekeeper of the mansion, "After the county guard of Rongben organizes his appearance, he will go to the mansion with the housekeeper." ”
"Lord Feng, please. ”
The sense of superiority inadvertently revealed in the expression of the housekeeper finally made Feng Jintai confirm the answer in his heart...... The people who returned to Huaichuan to welcome into the mansion were not only related to Yuan Muhuai, but also the prince Lin Jianzhi.
Lin Jianzhi's reason for staying and returning to the house was not as complicated as Feng Jintai thought. Guifu is located in the northwest of Yifan, only five or six streets and alleys away from Xinmei Garden, Lin Jianzhi just hopes to be closer to Yan Xinmei, even in her mind, there is no trace of him.
The sky was getting dark, and the drizzling light rain made everything more cold and gloomy, Lin Jianzhi lazily dealt with Yifan and other officials, so he asked Gui Huaichuan to get off the carriage, and drove towards the heart plum garden with Wusui alone.
The heart plum garden is not very large, except for a pavilion and an elaborate stone pavilion, the rest are plum trees and lotus ponds. Lin Jianzhi stood under the stone pavilion, almost greedily staring at the dim candlelight in the pavilion, the woman he missed day and night, now sitting by the candlestick, Lin Jianzhi almost felt that he heard her breathing.
In the quiet night, the sound of horses' hooves stopped outside the courtyard from far and near. Lin Jianzhi raised his jaw, and Wu Sui immediately disappeared into the night.
"The autumn night is cool, the prince should go to the house to rest. A handmaid bowed.
Lin Jianzhi didn't squeak...... The winding corridor was hidden in the moonlight, with boundless loneliness, which made him hesitate a little timidly.
"It's better for the prince to admire the moon in the pavilion. Behind Lin Jianzhi came a voice as warm as jade.
Lin Jianzhi's body stiffened, and his face was immediately clouded.
"Wan An, King of Xuan. The maidservant saw the person coming clearly, and hurriedly squatted down to give a salute.
"Get up. Lin Yiren raised his sleeves slightly, "Miss Yan is okay recently?"
"The girl is still the same, but she sleeps worse at night in autumn than before. The handmaid said.
"Has the doctor ever shown the girl?" said Lin Yi.
"Look," said the maid respectfully, "the doctor said it might have something to do with the dryness of autumn......
Before the maid's voice fell, a woman's gentle voice suddenly came from the pavilion, "Qingqiu." ”
When Lin Jianzhi heard that voice, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"The girl called me. The maidservant looked at Lin Jianzhi, "Does the prince want to drink tea under the moon, or go to the house to sit?"
Lin Jianzhi seemed to have made up his mind and walked towards the pavilion.
"Prince, please stay. Lin Yiren calmly stopped Lin Jianzhi, "If the prince really thinks about Xinmei, it is better not to show up." ”
Lin Jianzhi's footsteps paused, and Junmei's face suddenly distorted a little.
"Qingqiu," Yan Xinmei continued in the pavilion, "You go buy some silk threads tomorrow, Ajing's clothes are torn, I will sew them for him." ”
"Yes, girl. Qingqiu looked back and agreed.
Lin Jianzhi's figure shook slightly, and there was a roar in his ears. He cared about her day and night, but she always remembered only the secret guard!
"Also," Yan Xinmei pushed open the window, but did not see Lin Yiren and Lin Jianzhi in the night, "Buy some fresh chestnuts tomorrow, the prince has always loved chestnut cakes, and I will make them for the prince." ”
"Got it, girl. Qingqiu saw that Lin Jianzhi's expression was not good, and he hurriedly blessed his body, "Prince, the girl is not sober this time, if you say anything inappropriate, please forgive the prince." ”
"Go down!" Lin Jian said angrily.
Qingqiu shuddered, and immediately trotted back to the house.
"The prince doesn't have to be angry," Lin Yiren said lightly, "Xinmei can live so freely, it's a hundred times better than being in the prince's mansion." ”
"What about the Wusui people?" Lin Jian said coldly.
"I'm looking at the carriage for Qi Jing. "Lin Yi is humane.
"What did you do again!" Lin Jian gritted his teeth with hatred.
"It's nothing," said Lin Yi, "I saw that he didn't dare to make a move, and that he couldn't come back to give you an errand, so I had to order him to wait outside the courtyard, so as not to upset the prince." ”
"Qi Jing is fateful!" Lin Jian snorted angrily and walked away.
Lin Yiren recalled Zheng Ying's words, and his heart was gloomy. If something really happened to Qi Jing, what should he do with Yan Xinmei, should he let her be confused for the rest of her life?
