Chapter 687: Catching the Wind
When Lan Xin returned to Cining Palace, there happened to be guests in the Queen Mother's house. Lan Xin hesitated, did he come over to say hello after a while, and Mama Gui came out and said to Lan Xin: "County Lord, Lafayette asked you to go in." ”
Lan Xin walked in, saluted Lafayette, and then looked at the two people sitting next to her. Lan Xin's eyes lit up, and he immediately searched to the side, and sure enough, at the place where Old Madam Lu started, he saw the Lin family.
Lafayette smiled and said, "Okay, you young people sit together and talk about yourself." Let's have a good chat. ”
"Thank you Lafayette for your understanding!" Lan Xin smiled and curtsied. After the Lin family saluted, he came to the Lingbo Hall with the Lin family.
Lan Xin hurriedly ordered the red silk to serve tea and fruit. And the two of them were crooked together on the soft couch and said considerate words.
"Whew!" Lin sighed comfortably, "Oh, I'm better at home with you." On the Queen Mother's side just now, I really didn't dare to come out. ”
Lan Xin smiled and pushed a plate of lotus cake in front of her, and said with a smile: "This is a lotus cake made from lotus flowers in Lingbo Palace, and with lotus seed tea, it has a special taste, sister-in-law try it." ”
Lin unceremoniously picked up a piece of dim sum and put it in his mouth to chew, and then took a sip of lotus seed tea. That bold energy, where is there still half a point of scholarly door, the gentleness of everyone's ladies?
However, Lan Xin does not reject her boldness, she only thinks that she really regards herself as a friend, so she will be so unpretentious.
Lan Xin smiled and asked, "When did my sister-in-law return to Beijing?" I lived in the palace all day, but I didn't know any news from the outside. ”
Lin pressed the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, and said with a smile: "We have been in Beijing for three or five days, so let's settle down the affairs at home." The father-in-law also went to the ministry to complete the handover. Everything was packed up, and I dared to come to see the Queen Mother. ”
"Oh, that's right!" Lan Xin nodded with a smile and said, "I think Old Madam Lu is very tough, I don't know how Uncle Lu is doing now?"
"Hehe!" Lin said with a smile, "My father-in-law's health is also very good. Speaking of which, though, you should be thankful for that. The new prefect took office, and after the father-in-law handed over to him, there was no time to enter Beijing.
So, as soon as we put it together, we lived in the hot spring villa together as a family. Even if you soak it every once in a while, the effect is very significant. ”
Lan Xin smiled and said, "How can it be such an exaggeration! It is as if the hot spring has become a miracle medicine." I think it's rare for Uncle Lu to relax, and when he is in a better mood, his body will naturally improve. ”
"My sister is right, but she is also reasonable. Lin said with a smile, "You've been living in the palace for a while, are you still used to it?"
The two chatted speculatively together, but they forgot the time, until Mama Zhen came in and urged: "County Lord, the hour is not too early now." It's time for you and Grandma Lin to put on your makeup. ”
"Ouch, I didn't expect time to pass so quickly. Lan Xin glanced at the hourglass not far away, and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law's clothes have also been brought into the palace, if you don't dislike it, just freshen up on my side." ”
"Since my sister doesn't mind, then I won't be polite to my sister. Lin said with a smile, shouting to his personal maid to bring his clothes.
Lan Xin instructed Mama Zhen again: "You go over and ask Mama Gui, if the Queen Mother is busy, let the two old ladies come here to freshen up." ”
"Yes, Lord Shire. Mama Zhen agreed, turned and went out.
Lin Shi pondered for a moment and said, "Old Master Fang and Old Lady Fang entered Beijing this time, I'm afraid they came here for Fang Mingcheng's matter. Old Man Fang used to be the emperor, but his son is now just a county magistrate. This kind of gap is unacceptable to the Fang family. ”
Lan Xin just smiled and didn't answer. The qualifications of the eldest master of the Fang family are not high, if he can step down and do a good job in this county order. has political achievements, plus the Fang family's previous connections, and the help of the Lu family. The addition of officials to knighthood is also just around the corner.
In the Wuying Palace, the lights are bright.
When Lan Xin and Lin came over, it wasn't early, but it wasn't too late. The two of them, under the guidance of the little palace maid, sat in their seats. Coincidentally, the seats of the two people were actually next to each other.
The Queen Mother Lafayette came over with Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Fang.
The queen walked in with the help of the eldest princess. The queen's appearance is not much different from the last time she saw it, but there is a little less anger between her eyebrows and a little softer.
It seems that the queen's poison has been cured.
After sitting down, the eldest princess picked up the cup on the table and gestured to Lan Xin. Lan Xin smiled and picked up the cup in return.
After Lin swept around the hall, he asked in a low voice, "My sister has been in the palace for so long, has she ever seen the eldest prince?"
Uh, why did you inquire about the arrival of the eldest prince? Lan Xin looked over in surprise.
Lin said with a smile: "I have a cousin, virtuous and virtuous, talented and good-looking!"
What else does Lan Xin not understand? The Lin family has taken a fancy to the position of the eldest princess. She picked up the cup, dipped it to her lips, and said with a smile: "My sister-in-law is also a person who reads poetry and books. Naturally, we understand that when the moon rises, it loses, and that things must be reversed! Only that trickling stream can the water flow for a long time!"
What is the position of the Lin family in the Great Sect Dynasty now, the Lin family, who was born in the Lin family, knows best in the Lin family's heart. If you are not satisfied with being this kind of hidden family, if you have to fight for that share of the dragon's work, I am afraid that it will not be far from decay.
Lin glanced at Lan Xin thoughtfully, pursed his lips, and said with a smile: "My sister really didn't treat my sister-in-law as an outsider!"
Lan Xin raised his eyebrows and smiled, but he always felt that Lin's words had another deep meaning. It's just that she didn't have time to figure it out, so she only heard Chang Gonggong singing: "The emperor has arrived!"
Everyone hurriedly stood up and saluted, shouting in their mouths: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
"Haha, let's all be flat. The emperor sat on the dragon chair and said in a good mood. Pointing to the people behind him, he said, "Don't stand still, all of you." ”
Behind the emperor, in addition to several princes, there were also the old man of the Fang family, Lu Sheng, Lu Zhendong and several ministers of the court.
Before taking his seat, Lu Zhendong glanced at Lan Xin's side and locked it precisely at Lan Xin's location. Lan Xin sensed his gaze and nodded at him with a smile.
After a few glasses of wine, the emperor said with a smile: "This great victory in the East China Sea is indispensable······
"The sons and daughters don't dare to take credit, they are all the father's wisdom and talent, and General Huben commands properly·······"
"Huh?" the emperor interrupted with a wave of his hand, "I have always had clear rewards and punishments, and you don't need to be humble. Come forward and listen to the seal. ”
