Chapter 292: Temptation of the Heart
When Lin Qingge heard this, her heart became happy, she had poured bitter water in front of those women before, worried that Xiao Tingyi's words to suppress the bandits would be dangerous, but now it seems that they really spread those words, and even people like the Xu family who almost don't go out of the door can hear it, then Mrs. Liu must know.
Lin Qingge showed a sad look on his face, "I also know this truth, and the prince didn't want to go, but we didn't understand the things in the court, so I was afraid that there would be a traitor who wanted to harm our prince, so what should I do if I asked him to go." β
When Xu Shi heard this, he had no idea, and then wiped his tears for a while, secretly sighing how hard this sister-in-law's life is, but her face is half ruined, and it is easy to get married, but her husband wants to suppress bandits, and life and death are unpredictable. After thinking for a while, as if he had made up his mind, he stood up, wiped away his tears and said, "Don't be afraid, Ling'er, sister-in-law will go back and tell your eldest brother that she will always help you with this." β
As he spoke, he immediately called the maid to leave.
Lin Qingge stopped her, and said with some hesitation: "But big brother, he ......."
Xu knew what she meant, Lin Zhu was not so good to her, and he was most annoyed that she was interfering in the affairs of the court, and now if she told him about it, he would definitely not have a good face for her, but there was no way, she couldn't watch Lin Qingge so miserable.
resolutely said: "Ling'er, don't worry about it, just stay in the house." β
Looking at the back of Xu's hurried departure, Lin Qingge's originally mournful expression was restrained, and he was a little panicked in his heart, using Xu's to make this news bigger for her, it was just a trivial matter, but looking at the weak and crying woman, Lin Qingge felt a kind of guilt after calculating people for a long time.
Back in the main courtyard, Quan Xiaosheng was sitting in the courtyard wearing a black fox and reading a book, with a hundred-year-old red plum tree above his head, Quan Xiaosheng was half-lying on a bench, in front of him was a small table, and the small charcoal stove on the small table was boiling tea, so quiet, but it really looked like a young man like jade.
Seeing Lin Qingge coming back, "Mei Gongzi" put down the book in his hand and beckoned to her.
Lin Qingge walked over as she said, but before she could stand still, a pair of strong hands grabbed her waist and dragged her to the top.
Lin Qingge's face turned a little unnaturally red, and he wanted to leave, but he was tightly imprisoned by the people under him, and he couldn't break free at all.
Quan Xiaosheng patted her back soothingly: "Good." β
Lin Qingge saw that he couldn't break free, so he gave up, and stayed quietly in Quan Xiaosheng's arms, and inadvertently caught a glimpse of the book he put on the small table - the southwest topographic map?
"The prince is very confident that he can go on this errand. β
Quan Xiaosheng greedily inhaled the good-smelling plum blossom fragrance around Lin Qingge's neck, "With the princess as a military advisor, this king naturally has confidence." β
Lin Qingge twisted his neck unnaturally, "It's almost these two days, pay attention to the prince, beware of someone taking advantage of the opportunity to secretly arrow." β
"Good. "Quan Xiaosheng is going to be entangled again.
Even if the two are already husband and wife, they can be so blue and white...... Lin Qingge really couldn't stand it, and he was obviously blushing, but he still tried to say with a straight face: "What about Xi'er?"
"Isn't there a willow?
"She's fine...... Ke Xi'er and I grew up together, and they know my heart best. "The fine willow is good, gentle and considerate, and exquisite, but it's a pity that she is not her own person, otherwise she would not have said a word in the Qifeng Palace that day. Besides, Quan Xiaosheng promised her that Xi'er had only been "cultivating" for a few days, but why didn't she have any news of her today. Lin Qingge was a little out of breath.
Quan Xiaosheng blew in Lin Qingge's ear: "What's the matter?
These words were punns, and they were said in such a tone, Lin Qingge's face was almost red to the base of his neck, and he stood up with a brush, trying to show an angry look: "Xi'er!
Seeing this, Quan Xiaosheng also felt bored, so he lay back on the recliner, picked up the book and continued to read: "When this errand is down, the princess will definitely be very busy, and the king will definitely call that lazy girl to help the princess at that time." β
Do you still not trust, take Xi'er as a hostage, and test her loyalty?
Lin Qingge can understand Quan Xiaosheng's behavior, but she is faintly uneasy in her heart, after getting along for the past few days, she knows more about Quan Xiaosheng, on the surface she is unruly, but in fact she is more ruthless than anyone else, and this person is always a pair of bottomless eyes, sometimes Lin Qingge will involuntarily glance away when talking to him, because he always feels that he will be seen through. She had only seen such a look on the face of one personβher father, Lin Qi. And the way such a person is tempted is by no means as simple as that.
On December 12, Mrs. Liu's birthday, all the daughters of the family were specially invited to gather in the house, and Lin Qingge was also among them. She wasn't really curious about this, after all, there are always some people who like to find trouble with others when they are idle all day.
got up early in the morning and dressed neatly, but saw that Quan Xiaosheng was already dressed and sitting at the round table, slowly drinking a bowl of steaming millet porridge. Years of military career have made his stomach bad, and he must pay attention to his diet in winter.
"Want to go out?" Lin Qingge also sat down.
Quan Xiaosheng hugged the person, rubbed her hair, and said casually: "Brother Huang wants me to enter the palace today." β
Lin Qingge froze, "So fast?"
"Yes. Lin Qingge seemed to hear a chuckle coming from above his head: "I haven't seen this group of people work so efficiently before." β
Lin Qingge couldn't laugh, although it was expected, but it was too fast, and it was hard to guarantee that nothing would happen.
"Lord be careful. β
"Alright, what can I do. You came back earlier today, and this king wants to eat glutinous rice chicken. Quan Xiaosheng let go of Lin Qingge and put on a big coat to welcome the snow.
Lin Qingge couldn't, so he packed up and took the gift to Liu's mansion.
Liu En was born in a poor family, and it is not difficult to climb all the way to this position, and there is a lot of help from his wife and family - Huai'an Bo Mansion.
Mrs. Liu is Miss Bofu, her family is big, and it is rare that Liu En's relationship with her is really good, so she is used to being high-flying on weekdays, and the older she gets, the more she is sharp.
Looking at the crowded mansion in front of him, and the woman smiling in the distance, Lin Qingge suddenly felt a little envious of her, envious that she had a father, brother, and husband who loved her. Even if you don't have enough brains, you can have so many people to protect you, and you don't have to walk on the edge of the cliff alone, how nice.
"Oh, isn't this Concubine Xiao Tingyi?" a characteristic shrill voice interrupted Lin Qingge's thoughts.
Looking at Mrs. Liu with a smug face in front of her, Lin Qingge instantly retracted her previous thoughts, forget it, this person is really annoying.
As soon as Mrs. Liu came up, she grabbed Lin Qingge's hand, and walked forward as if the two were so affectionate, some of them did not dare to exceed the rules, and bowed slightly, but most of them should be from Mrs. Liu's side, and they all rushed up and asked questions around Lin Qingge.
