Chapter Eighty-Nine

A sneer crossed Huo Yi's indifferent face, he really didn't intend to refuse this family business, and Miss Hou was included in the prince's mansion with Miss Pei.

Huo Yi sat on the chair, unexpectedly indifferent: "It's good that the emperor's grandmother and father are in charge of this matter." ”

The Queen Mother and the Emperor glanced at each other, both of them couldn't believe it, since childhood, Huo Yi's affairs have always been his own decision, no one can make decisions for him, and the sun is coming out in the west today? Especially the Queen Mother, she asked with a look in her eyes: "Yi'er, have you thought it through?" ”

Huo Yi nodded, the sachet in the sleeve tube exuded a faint fragrance at the moment, Sansi knew that he didn't like a very strong fragrance, so the aroma of this sachet was very light and light, Sansi likes to do these little things, when it's okay, she always likes to embroider and sew with needle and thread, she is proficient in embroidery, but she doesn't like to manage the big and small affairs in the house, whenever the next person goes back and forth to the house, her eyebrows will always wrinkle involuntarily, Huo Yi saw it in her eyes, and felt that it was time to find her a helper. "General Hou is loyal, his daughter is also outstanding, and his son has promised to accept his daughter as a good woman, and he asked his father to do it together."

The emperor frowned and glanced at the Queen Mother, he was a filial son, and he liked to ask the Queen Mother's opinion on everything, and his eyes were full of doubts at this time. "Yi'er, you are going to marry the crown princess, if Na Liangyuan and the princess are held together, not to mention the courtiers, even the people think it is ridiculous, and it will damage the reputation of you and the princess."

Huo Yi disagreed, and said lightly: "Father, you are mistaken, Erchen never planned to marry the crown princess, Pei is the crown princess, and Hou is a good yuan." "Prime Minister Pei Cheng wanted to use his father to pressure him, but he didn't expect that he had never given in to his father, he wouldn't since he was a child, and he wouldn't now, since she didn't want a side concubine, then give him a princess.

"What did you say?!" When the emperor heard this, he slapped the table angrily, and he caught a glimpse of the queen mother looking at him, so he suppressed his anger and did not get up from the chair. "At the state banquet last year, I met Miss Pei with my own eyes, and it is indeed as rumored, she is both talented, intelligent, and very knowledgeable, besides, you have a marriage contract with her beforehand, can you not marry the crown princess? I disagree. ”

Huo Yi snorted coldly and said, "Father, if you don't agree, Yi'er has no other way, you can't kidnap your sons and daughters to get married, right?" ”

"You-" The emperor stood up, he had been the emperor for so many years, no one had ever dared to disobey his wishes so much, he pointed to Huo Yi's nose, but he couldn't speak angrily, and sat down on the chair in a long time, exhaled a long breath, and his voice was like a dull sound of bells and drums: "How do you let me tell Prime Minister Pei Cheng?" ”

Huo Yi hooked the corners of his lips, and the domineering spirit of the natural king was inadvertently revealed: "Father can let people announce the decree, there is no need to say more, Prime Minister Pei naturally understands what the reason is." ”

The old emperor was worried and hesitant, but the queen mother spoke: "Your Majesty, just do it according to Yi'er's wishes, although she was a little wronged Miss Pei, but she entered the mansion, she is still the highest-ranking person, whether it is Liangyuan or Liangdi, they are all under her, so I can comfort her, after all, Yi'er doesn't plan to set up a main room now, she still has a chance." ”

Although the old emperor was not satisfied with this result, he really couldn't think of a better way, so he had to compromise: "Now, it has to be like this." ”

The Queen Mother told again: "According to the mourning family, since it is not to marry the crown princess, the scene cannot be too grand, what does the emperor and Yi'er mean?" ”

The emperor glanced at Huo Yi and found that he didn't seem to care at all, so he said: "If Yi'er has no objections, she will do what the queen mother wants." ”

However, it was only a pillar of incense time, the emperor's body was a little unable to support it, and he barely stayed for a while, and then he wanted to go back to the Palace of Nourishing Heart to rest, after the emperor left, the queen mother asked Huo Yi to help her get up from the phoenix couch, and retreated to everyone, accompanied by Huo Yi in the small garden of Fushou Palace, for a walk, and enjoy the flowers.

"Yi'er, are you doing this to think twice?" After all, the Queen Mother is a person from the past, and she knows the feelings of Huo Yi and Sansi, so she naturally thought of this, Prime Minister Pei Cheng is cunning and cunning, and the daughter raised will definitely not be as gentle and generous as rumored by the outside world, and Miss Hou is from the general's mansion, and her temper is not small, and the two tigers are fighting, and the people who benefit from the battle are naturally the people who watch the battle.

Huo Yi helped the Queen Mother to sit down on a soft chair, although the garden of Fushou Palace is not as big as the imperial garden, but the flowers in it are very precious, they are all very rare varieties, Lin Sansi last entered the palace, walked around the garden, and still remembered. "The imperial grandmother guessed it and asked her grandson what to do."

The Queen Mother took Huo Yi's hand and sighed faintly: "You, you have arranged a qiqi for the three thinking girls, I don't know if she understands your good intentions?" If you know that you are going to take a concubine, you don't know what it will be like to be sad. ”

Huo Yi hooked her lips and smiled: "She won't be sad, no matter how much she takes, she is not as good as her in Yi'er's eyes." ”

The Queen Mother smiled, the years have wrinkled her face, but her smile is still so beautiful, you can see how captivating she was when she was young. "The imperial grandmother asked her to make your favorite crab dumplings, so let's have breakfast with the imperial grandmother."

Huo Yi thought about promising to think twice and go back for lunch, but it was still early at the moment, so he said, "Okay, my grandson will accompany the emperor's grandmother to have breakfast." ”

&

After Huo Yi entered the palace, Lin Sansi went back to bed and slept for a while, and was later woken up by Xi'er's babbling voice.

Fu Ling was coaxing Xi'er softly, and when she saw Lin Sansi getting up, she hurriedly said: "Miss, you are awake, the slave is afraid of disturbing you, and she is about to hug the little boy and carry it out, but you woke up first." ”

Lin Sansi smiled, took Xi'er, hugged him in his arms, kissed his forehead and said, "Is Xi'er hungry?" I didn't drink milk all night last night. ”

Fu Ling said: "Miss, the slave maid thinks that you are really blessed, not only His Royal Highness the Crown Prince loves you, but even the little boy is so young, he knows that he loves you, a child as big as the little boy, which one doesn't eat milk three or four times a night." ”

Lin Sansi smiled lightly, gently stroked Xi'er's head, and hummed a brisk tune while stroking, listening to Xi'er looked at her from time to time, her dark eyes were full of curiosity.

After breakfast, Lin Sansi hugged Xi'er to play in the yard, Lin Xuan sat next to her and played with a slingshot, Huo Yi was not in the house, he rarely took a break for a while, the boy was naughty, he thought that he had left the private school, and when he arrived at the prince's mansion, he didn't have to study, who would have thought that the prince's brother-in-law was stricter than Mr. Dong, he was more afraid of the prince's brother-in-law than when he first came to the prince's mansion, but he didn't understand a little, why the prince's brother-in-law was so strict when he was with his sister, he was very gentle, just like a different person, He secretly asked Sister Fu Ling, Sister Fu Ling thought about it and asked him: "Little master, you are so naughty, but when facing the second miss, why are you so sensible and well-behaved?" ”

Lin Xuan suddenly said: "That's because I like my sister the most, I just want to be good to my sister!" ”

Sister Fu Ling laughed: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the same as the little young master!" ”

Lin Xuan suddenly realized: "It turns out that the prince's brother-in-law likes my sister as much as I do!" ”

Steward Liu in the mansion came over suddenly, but Qinglan Yuan did not have the orders of His Royal Highness or Lin Liangdi, and the man in the mansion couldn't go in, so he had to stand outside the courtyard and beckoned to Fu Ling, and Fu Ling ran over, I don't know what the two said, and after a while, I saw Fu Ling running back.

"Miss, do you remember Miss Sun, the daughter of Lord Sun Tingwei? She didn't know how she came, but she was just outside the house, saying she wanted to see you. ”

Lin Sansi couldn't help frowning, the Miss Sun that Fu Ling said was Sun Zhongwei, when she was still in the Lin Mansion, there were several young ladies with good relations, once when she went to one of Miss Liu's houses to do it, Sun Zhongwei happened to be there, and the two met, but the two didn't know each other very well, they met twice in total, once at Miss Liu's house, and once in Ning Wangfu, but at that time she was already the daughter of a criminal minister in Ning Wangfu's room.

I don't know why Sun Zhongwei came to her at this time? But whatever the reason, the visitors were guests, and she had no reason to turn her away.

Sun Zhongwei was helped into Qinglan Garden by the maid, and Lin Sansi asked Lily to carry Xi'er into the inner room, and he greeted her. "Miss Sun."

Sun Zhongwei was blessed by Lin Sansi, and then took Lin Sansi's hand: "Sansi, why are you so polite, so that Miss Sun has made a difference, we are still the same as before, you call me Zhongwei, I call you Sansi, okay?" ”

Lin Sansi nodded, thinking, you used to call me Miss Lin and I called you Miss Sun, when did you become so affectionate? Although he thought so in his heart, he still maintained a politeness on his face: "Come in and sit." ”

The two sat down, and Sun Zhongwei deliberately chose a position closer to Lin Sansi, and her eyes swept around Lin Sansi's body.

Lin Sansi felt that Sun Zhongwei was very strange, but it was not good to ask directly, so he had to look at her too, because of the proximity, Lin Sansi could see that she had rubbed a very thick fat powder today, but the bruises under her eyes were not completely covered, it seemed that she had not rested for several days, and her complexion was much worse than before.

Sun Zhongwei took a sip of rose tea and said with a smile: "Think twice, this prince's mansion is so big, just you are the hostess?" ”

Lin Sansi couldn't guess the purpose of Sun Zhongwei's trip, so he had to follow her words and say: "Where is the hostess, I don't know much about the affairs of the house, as long as I don't help." ”

Sun Zhongwei smiled: "It is rumored that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very fond of you, but now it seems that it is really not fake at all!" ”

Lin Sansi looked at Sun Zhongwei's smile on her face, and she didn't know how to answer, so she had to smile lightly.

Sun Zhongwei suddenly blushed, and said a little embarrassed: "The last time I met you in King Ning's Mansion, I was supposed to help you, but you dare to know King Ning's personality, I asked my aunt to intercede, but it didn't work, I'm really sorry, I didn't help you." ”

Lin Sansi was a little stunned, could it be that Sun Zhongwei came to explain this matter to her on purpose? At that time, not long after she arrived at Ning Wangfu, when she was drying the washed clothes, she happened to meet Aunt Qin walking towards this side with Sun Zhongwei, she was hiding, but Sun Zhongwei found out.

"Miss Lin?" Sun Zhongwei's voice was full of surprise.

Lin Sansi put down the laundry basin in his hand, saluted Aunt Qin, and said, "It's me, hello Miss Sun." ”

"How did you get here? Still doing this kind of menial work? ”

Lin Sansi didn't know whether Sun Zhongwei was intentional or unintentional, the capital was so big, it was impossible for the Sun family not to know about her father's affairs, she was sent to Ning Wangfu to work, presumably Sun Zhongwei had also heard of it.
