In the princess's mansion, Xiaomi Fu was kneeling on the soft couch, holding a book to read, and a pair of bright big eyes were about to stare into mosquito eyes.

Woo woo, it's so uncomfortable to sit on your knees, there is no punctuation on the book, and it's so hard to watch.

Mi Fu really doesn't like to read and practice calligraphy at all, but she can't do it, she is also a county lord, and if she can't do it, she will embarrass the princess.

So no matter how unwilling she is, she has to learn.

There was no one in the study, and the system was on.

The girls gave her ideas in a gossiping manner: "Doesn't Da Zhou have a stool, you sit on the stool, and you can also make some inventions and create a chair to get the chair out." ”

"Nope." Mi Fu puffed out his bun face and scratched his hair in distress, "Mother said that it was not dignified to sit on a stool, and she was not even allowed to sit cross-legged, and she died of sadness." ”

"Will you turn into a turnip leg?" Someone gloated.

"No, it won't." Mi Fu said, "Every night, my grandmother rubs my legs, rubs my muscles, and teaches me to practice some soft leg movements, stretch ligaments, and make my legs slender." ”

"Tsk." Someone sighed, "It is estimated that it will cost 100 gold to raise you out." ”

"Yes, from the skin to the hair, everything is carefully maintained, and even the nails are smedicated every day and carefully rubbed. In the past, we all thought that the ancients did not understand these things, but now it seems that we are lonely and unheard. ”

"Xiaomi Mi is ten years old, and her skin is still as smooth as a baby, presumably at the age of twenty or thirty, she is still so delicate. However, such meticulous maintenance is too costly, and many of the medicinal materials used are rare varieties, even if we know these recipes, we can't afford to use them, and many medicinal materials have become extinct. ”

The big guy chatted nonsense, envy, jealousy and hatred for Mi Fu, and then chatted and chatted, and talked about Lin Long.

Reader Zhu Zi was a little excited: "Is Lin Hou about to enter Beijing, wow, I really want to see what she looks like." ”

"I want to see it too." Reader Midnight Rose Branch then said, "The history books only record that Empress Lin is wise and intelligent, but they don't mention her appearance, and she is a couple from generation to generation in her life, the ultimate dream of all women." ”

Mi sat up from the couch with a sluggish expression, and then suddenly said: "Mother is going to hold a chrysanthemum party in a few days, I will go and tell my mother and ask her to send an invitation to Queen Lin." ”

"Great!" The system began to swipe the screen, full of all kinds of excited expressions, "Whether Queen Lin is a saltless woman or a peerless beauty, I will soon see."

――

The courtyard prepared by the Lin family for Lin Long is good, and there are a few girls and mothers-in-law to serve.

Old Madam Lin gave the first-class maid Peach Branch beside her to Lin Long, and served closely with Lilac Lin Shuo.

When she arrived at the room, Lilac took Taozhi's hand and smiled kindly and cutely, "Sister Taozhi, the lady has been on the road for a day, I want to get some hot water and serve the lady to freshen up, you see ......"

Taozhi understood what Lilac meant, and immediately said, "You take care of the third lady first, and I'll go down to arrange it." ”

On such a hot day, after another day's journey, Lilac felt that she was going to get prickly heat, and the lady was also pale, showing that she had been unhappy for a long time.

It must be very relaxing to have a hot bath and wash up. However, Lilac is a newcomer, and she doesn't know anything, and she doesn't know who to find if she wants hot water, so she can only trouble Peach Branch.

Fortunately, this peach branch seems to be a good talker, and as soon as she said it herself, she agreed.

After Momozhi leaves, Lilac begins to clean up the house.

Lin Long sat on the couch, holding his chin with one hand, looking confused, as if he was thinking about something.

She was thinking about the mattress in the flower hall, and there were two small, sharp stones buried in the mattress, and the position of the stones was also very interesting, just at the knee. If she hadn't noticed it and sat on her knees violently, her knees would have hurt.

But fortunately, the stone is not big, and it is covered with a layer of wool, even if it is injured, it is a small injury, at most a layer of skin is broken.

If she doesn't follow up and get to the bottom of it, in the end, she will just push a mother-in-law to come out and take the blame, and a mistake is enough to excuse her. If she insists on punishing her mother-in-law, she will have a reputation for being domineering and vicious.

The people behind him are bold and careful, and they are thoughtful.

This kind of trivial matter is not painful or itchy, but it responds to people, there are stones under the mattress today, and tomorrow it will be said that there will be needles hidden in the quilt. It's like a mosquito in the night, biting you coldly, which makes people hate and annoy.

Moreover, a small thing like this, if it makes a big fuss, it is only bad for her, endure it, but it is like a fish in the throat.

It's embarrassing.

Lin Long lowered his head, stroked his smooth wrist, and suddenly turned his head to look at Lilac: "Tell me, what kind of person am I in your eyes?" ”

Why did the lady suddenly ask such a question? Lilac is incomprehensible, since she entered the Beijing Division, the lady has become more and more weird, and the love seems to be a lot more, and I don't know if it's good or bad.

After thinking for a while, Lilac replied: "Steady, intelligent, knowledgeable, omnipotent, and the best-looking and powerful person the maid has ever seen." ”

"Silly." Lin Long smiled, and two pear vortices raised at the corners of his lips, don't add a touch of cuteness and playfulness, "That's it, I'll give you a few options, there are cold and dusty, dignified atmosphere, gentle and polite, and arrogant and domineering." ”

The first three have it, but what the hell is the last one?

Lilac blinked, becoming more and more puzzled by Lin Long, the lady's personality is really changing three times. From the initial absolute cold, wood-like, to the later slightly affectionate, and then to today's affection.

I feel that the lady is becoming more and more vivid, and the whole person is alive and has a hint of girlish atmosphere.

"What do you think the lady is good?" Lilac said obediently.

Hmph, nonsense, Lin Long turned his head and continued to think about things again.

Taozhi brought hot water, Lilac served Lin Long to bathe and change clothes, take a short rest, and then go to Mrs. Lin's place to eat, wait until night falls, and then return to the room to rest.

The rules of the Lin family are that two meals a day, morning food and morning food, Mrs. Lin and a few granddaughters use it together, and the others go back to their own yard to use it.

Because the morning food is a little later, the Lin family is used to get up early to use some porridge and snacks to pad it, and then go to Mrs. Lin's yard to eat the morning food.

As soon as the sky was bright, Lin Long woke up, Lilac served Lin Long to dress and wash, and Taozhi went to make the bed and fold the quilt.

After packing it up, the cloves and peach branches went to get snacks for Lin Long.

"Sister Momozhi, what kind of food do you have in the morning?" Lilac asked softly, she was a little worried that the Lin family's food was not to Lin Long's appetite.

In the Lin family, everyone basically uses a large kitchen, only Mrs. Lin and the three ladies have a small kitchen, and even Lin Dalang and his wife do not have this treatment.

Taozhi spoke very well and replied: "There are bird's nest porridge, vegetable porridge, meat porridge, goat's milk, and many snacks, I don't know what the third lady likes?" Speaking of this, Momozhi narrowed her eyes and held Lilac's hand affectionately, "I first came to the lady's side, I don't know the lady's preferences, and my sister needs to mention me more." ”

"My sister reminded me of it."

As soon as the two were talking, a mother-in-law suddenly ran over in front of them, and when she saw Taozhi, she immediately grabbed her hand and said anxiously: "Oh no, Taozhi, your mother is looking for you everywhere, I heard that your father has eaten something bad." ”

"What?" Momozhi's face changed slightly.

Seeing this, Lilac hurriedly said: "Sister, go and take a look, I'll go and say it to the lady, the lady has an excellent temperament and won't be angry." ”

"Thank you." Taozhi shook Lilac's hand movingly, then turned to the mother-in-law and admonished, "Mother Liu, please take Lilac to the kitchen." ”

"It's okay, you can go, I'll leave it here." Mother Liu waved her hand, and then walked to the kitchen with Lilac.

Ding Xiang was still a little worried about Taozhi's father, and asked Liu's mother: "How can you eat bad things, the weather has turned cold, and the food is not easy to spoil." ”

Hearing this, Mother Liu sneered, her expression was no longer gentle and cordial in front of Taozhi, but raised her eyebrows slightly, and her smile was cold and mocking, "You are a person from a small place, I don't know, when the food in the house is what kind of yellow cakes and brown rice do you eat, people are exquisite dim sum, don't ask if you don't know, it's embarrassing!" ”

Lilac choked, immediately widened her eyes, and looked at Liu's mother in surprise.

She is not a fool, where can she hear the irony in Mother Liu's words, she is talking about cloves on the surface, but in fact she is alluding to Lin Long.

Thinking about what happened just now, she clearly used the excuse to transfer the peach branch.

Thinking of this, Lilac fell silent, glanced at Mother Liu lightly, followed Lin Long's example, and said, "Oh, Mother Liu is saying that your subordinates eat better than the master?" ”

This is a bit of a curse, it is simply pointing at her nose and scolding her for being a master.

No matter where you are, you can't tolerate such a slave who practices his master!

Hearing that Liu's mother's legs were weak and almost planted on the ground, she glanced at Lilac in horror, and suddenly turned around and ran.

After a while, the person disappeared.

Lilac frowned, but fortunately, she had already seen the big kitchen, otherwise she really wouldn't have found it.

Entering the kitchen, Lilac reported her identity and wanted to get some bird's nest porridge for Lin Long.

"The bird's nest porridge is gone." The mother-in-law in the kitchen slammed the water scoop on the stove with a bang, and squinted at the clove: "Get up so late, what do you eat, the master of Manfu, it's the first time I've seen it so lazy." ”

"You ......" Ding's cheeks flushed.

At this time, a mother-in-law came out of the side to play a round and came over with a food box, "Don't worry about Lilac girl, sister-in-law Qiao, she is joking with you, look, everything is left for you, I just don't know what the third lady likes to eat, only a bowl of mushroom porridge and a plate of osmanthus cake." ”

Lilac bowed her head and said nothing.

"Let's go, I'll help Miss Lilac deliver it." So saying, the woman pulled the lilac sleeve and pulled the man out.

All the way back to the courtyard, Lin Long looked at the two of them from the window, and looked surprised: "Where is the peach branch?" ”

Lilac wanted to take the food box in the mother-in-law's hand and enter the inner room, but she didn't want the mother-in-law to let go at all, but went in with Lilac.

Like this kind of low-level mother-in-law, she can't enter the inner room without the permission of the master, Lilac is almost angry, they, they are really too deceitful.

The woman entered the inner room, stared at Lin Long with a pair of cloudy eyes, stared at Lin Long's good eyes, there was no trace of respect in her eyes, and she smiled ruefully: "The third lady is so good-looking, better than the Oiran who leans on the Red Mansion." ”

Actually compared her lady with a prostitute!

Because she was so surprised, Lilac didn't react for a long time.

Seeing that Lilac was stunned, the mother-in-law raised her hand to push her aside, took the food box and put it on the food table, opened the lid, and took out the porridge and snacks, "The old slave serves the lady." ”

Her movements were very rude, and when she took the porridge, her dark and dirty thumb poked into the porridge bowl, and several pieces of the snack were broken.

Seeing this, Ding was extremely fragrant, and before he could attack, his nose smelled a sour and rancid smell.

Following the taste, Lilac saw the porridge and snacks on the table that exuded the taste of *, and her hands trembled with anger, she actually ...... actually took the bad food to the lady.

I really can't bear it, I can't bear it, I don't need to bear it anymore, Lilac sank her eyebrows, and just as she was about to call Lin Shuo, Lin Long's voice came from her ears.

"Lady?" Lilac turned her head in confusion.

Lin Long smiled at her, his good-looking phoenix eyes were slightly curved, like Xiao Yueya: "Do you remember what I told you yesterday?" ”

What did you say? Lilac was confused.

Lin Long ignored her stunnedness, but smiled brightly and said abruptly: "I decided to take the domineering route." ”

As soon as the words fell, she suddenly picked up the porridge bowl and smashed it at her mother-in-law.

With Lin Long's head, it was just right, the porridge bowl was just buckled on the top of the mother-in-law's head, and the porridge rice was left from the top of the head, and he exhaled all over his face.

The mother-in-law was startled, and immediately howled after reacting, she was shouting at the top of her voice, and after a while, a group of subordinates gathered in the courtyard, and even those who dared to break into the inner room.

Seeing this, Lilac's brows furrowed tighter, and she was about to be able to kill flies, none of these people took the lady in their eyes, and they dared to break into the lady's room.

A little housekeeper also followed into the house, and when she saw the mother-in-law who was detained in the center, she said coldly: "What's the matter?" ”

Lin Long glanced at her, and suddenly raised his hand to throw it at her, and the housekeeper subconsciously grabbed it, and grabbed two pieces of broken silver in her hand.

She looked at Lin Long inexplicably, could it be that the third lady wanted to gag her?

However, this silver is too little, less than two dollars, hum, it is worthy of coming out of a small place, and it is stingy.

"San Ladies, what do you mean?" The housekeeper's mother-in-law wanted to humiliate Lin Long, so she deliberately raised the broken silver in her hand for everyone to see.

Lin Long rolled his eyes, and the originally gentle phoenix eyes instantly sharpened, and his momentum suddenly came up.

In her last life, she was the eldest daughter of the family, she was a queen, she led soldiers, and her momentum was very comparable.

"I didn't expect the Lin family to be so sleepy that they couldn't even eat food, and they used these * things as a façade. Take these two coins of silver, and buy some rice and flour and come back. It doesn't matter if I'm hungry, if my grandmother is hungry, it's my unfilial piety. ”

The housekeeper's heart tightened, and she looked at Lin Long in shock, hearing what she meant, she actually wanted to make a big deal out of it. The housekeeper rolled her eyes, and her mind raced to the ground.

These are all confessed by the second lady, and if you make trouble with the old lady, the second lady will not do anything, and these minions of them will definitely lose a layer of skin.

She was anxious, and there was that cold and beautiful voice in her ears again, Lin Long looked at her and said softly: "Don't worry, I know you miss the master's family." Don't worry, I will tell my grandmother that I will sell you to a good man's house, and that you will be able to exchange a lot of money for a lot of money, even though you are old, but you are in good health. ”

Hearing this, the housekeeper only felt that her back was full of coldness, she always thought that the little lady who was not very old was making trouble, but she didn't expect her to be so vicious and wanted to sell her!

Seeing the housekeeper's uncertain expression, Lilac wondered, "Isn't Mama unwilling?" ”

This is a trap, and if she refuses to return, it is disloyalty. Answering yes, it has nothing to do with the third lady, she is willing to sell it.

The housekeeper, who has always been calm and composed, actually broke out in cold sweat on her forehead.

――

In the courtyard of Mrs. Lin, a mother-in-law hurriedly came. Xingzhi, who was at the door, saw it, frowned again and again, and scolded: "What are you running, you are in a hurry." ”

"Miss Xingzhi, it's not good, the third lady is making a fuss over there."

"What's going on?" Apricot Branch was startled.

The mother-in-law who came was a well-spoken person, and she was busy telling her what had happened, and the more Xingzhi listened, the more shocked she became, she glared at her mother-in-law, and said sharply: "You wait here first, and I'll go in and report to the old lady." ”

Mrs. Lin was using bird's nest porridge, and when she heard this, she put down the spoon, and her eyes were slightly surprised: "Sanniang's porridge is rancid?" ”

Xingzhi nodded: "That mother-in-law did say so, now, there has been a commotion over there, the third lady said that the Lin family had no money to eat, and took two coins of silver to let Cheng's mother go out to buy rice and noodles, and said that she sold Cheng's mother to ......."

Speaking of this, Xingzhi quietly raised her eyes and glanced at the old lady, and lowered her voice, "Buy you food." ”

"Nonsense!" Hearing the last sentence, Mrs. Lin slapped the table angrily.

Is she trying to make a fuss that everyone knows? If this matter spreads and says that the Lin family sold people for rice and grain, how can the Lin family still gain a foothold in Beijing.

Yesterday, Mrs. Lin thought that Lin Long was smart and sensible, so Zhou used some small means, and she turned a blind eye. Because she was sure that Lin Long would not make trouble, she didn't expect that she would not make trouble, but she was holding back her strength and waiting for the big trouble.

This bastard is not stingy, she doesn't want to think about it, what is the benefit to her if the matter is big, in case it reaches the ears of the princess, she will not like it, and she will quit this family business, but how can it be good.

Mrs. Lin wants to marry this family more than Lin Long, and the marriage is the best of the two surnames, although she doesn't look down on Lin Long, but she wants the family of King Qin.

has a granddaughter who is a concubine, not only the old lady has face, but also the other little ladies of the Lin family are also noble.

"Idiot!" Mrs. Lin was so angry that her head jumped, and she said hatefully: "Go and call the eldest daughter-in-law to me, clean up all the bastards in the kitchen, kill the chickens and show the monkeys, and see who dares to help the second daughter-in-law make it bad." ”

Xingzhi responded obediently, but she understood it tightly in her heart, don't look at the old lady's face turned pale with anger, and said that she would punish those servants in the kitchen. But the culprit, the second lady, the old lady, didn't say a word.

In the end, there is a difference between intimacy and alienation, Xingzhi sighed, no wonder the second lady has no fear.

Mrs. Lin Qu came out of the old lady's courtyard, and soon came to Lin Long's courtyard, comforted Lin Long, and dealt with the kitchen and the servants who watched the excitement before leaving in a hurry.

This time, she was completely embarrassed, and the housekeeper in the kitchen was originally the second lady's companion, and she had a lot of face in the house. The Qu family drove her family directly to Zhuangzi, and even deprived the Zhou family of part of their stewardship.

Although Old Madam Lin didn't let her subordinates get out of the Zhou family, it didn't mean that she was allowed to stretch her claws so long, it was time to teach her some lessons and stop for a while.

Everyone left, Lilac looked at Lin Long's eyes and was excited and worried, so excited that the lady was really powerful, and worried that after this trouble, everyone in the Lin family might have a bad impression of her.

"Silly girl." Lin Long poked her eyebrows, and said indifferently, "You have to understand that the foundation of our life in the Lin family is not to please the old lady as a filial granddaughter, but the identity of my future concubine, as long as this family business is still there, the Lin family will be jealous." ”

Listening to Lin Long's words, Lilac breathed a sigh of relief, but was still worried: "Lady, if you make such a fuss today, will the old lady think that you have no rules?" ”

"Rules?" Lin Long originally walked to the soft couch, intending to lean on, but when he heard this, he glanced back, his eyes were clear, and his temperament was noble, "What rules did I break?" If a few minions occur in your own family, and you have to be charged with unruliness, then this Lin family is really a slave bully. ”

"Don't worry, I know your lady." After speaking, Lin Long instructed Lilac, "Go to the kitchen to get a bowl of bird's nest porridge and come back, I dropped that bowl, my strength has been used up, and now I am hungry." ”

Hearing this, Lilac couldn't cry or laugh, it was this time, the kitchen was in a mess, and the lady actually wanted to drink bird's nest porridge.

Seeing that the lady was still thinking about eating at this time, the clove's tense heartstrings loosened a lot, presumably the lady had her own success in her heart, but she was still a little worried, after all, they were weak.

"Lady, the companion room you marry needs to be selected by the old lady, you are facing her now, are you afraid that she will use this to pinch you and put you in the air? When we get to □□, we don't have anyone available, won't it be difficult to move an inch? ”

Although Lilac also knew in her heart that even if the lady pleases the old lady, is filial and well-behaved, and is obedient, the old lady will not really plan for the lady.

But in any case, it's better than tearing your face now.

Lin Long hung his head, as if he hadn't listened carefully to Lilac, and slowly raised his head after a long time, "Who said I don't have anyone available?" "If there is no one, Zhao Ji can gain a firm foothold in Beijing in just five years, and successfully attract Xiao Ze's attention and be awarded the title of National Teacher?

If there is no one, she can know all the news in the capital?

If there is no one, she can successfully arrange this qiē and become the princess of the Qin Dynasty?

But as long as you are a person, you must have a back hand, Lin Long is very glad that she did not tell Xiao Ze this line in her previous life.

Kindness? Lilac didn't understand, and was about to ask, but found that the lady had closed her eyes, as if she was taking a nap.

Lilac didn't dare to say much, and lightly cleaned up the mess on the ground, her face seemed calm, but her mind kept echoing the words of the lady.

What does that mean exactly? Could it be that there is really someone under the lady's hands?

――

At the same time, Xiao Yan from Beizhuang also learned the news, and he was rarely happy, relying on the hidden bag to laugh heartily.

Laughing and laughing, his heart was entangled again, hum, pretending to be a cat in front of him, as soon as he left his sight, his original form was revealed, showing his little paws.

Although Xiao Yan was dissatisfied with Lin Long's calculation that he would marry into the palace, he was his fiancée in the end.

His people can only be bullied by him, the Lin family, heh, what is it.

"Xiao Yiqing." Xiao Yan called.

"The subordinates are here."

"Go to the princess and send a mother-in-law to Lin Sanniang, the Lin family is willing to snub my princess, I can't bear it."

Xiao Yiqing suppressed the strangeness in his heart and bowed down to promise.

Xiao Yan didn't like Lin Long's thoughtfulness and scheming, and he liked to find fault with her when he had nothing to do, and felt that her status was low and she was not worthy of herself. But he never took action to stop this family business, and even had a secret secret joy in his heart.

He couldn't help but want to pay attention to her, wondering what she was doing, what she was like in front of others. even arranged for Xiao Yiqing to send someone to secretly observe her every move, not letting go of any details.

Although the two did not meet, it seemed that they were living on opposite sides, and he knew everything she did.

After the order, he caught a glimpse of Xiao Yiqing still standing indoors with his head down, Xiao Yan was unhappy in his heart, "Why don't you retreat?" ”

Xiao Yiqing still had something to report, looked up and saw the master's displeased gaze, hesitated slightly, and bowed down.

When he retreated to the door, Xiao Yiqing suddenly raised his head and glanced at Xiao Yan again. Seeing this, Xiao Yan was sensitive, and wanted to explain clearly: "Although I don't like Lin Sanniang, but she is the future concubine of □□, and she is a person in the palace. ”

Xiao Yiqing is a little inexplicable, does the master still need to explain the reason to him? How strange is the master today.

Xiao Yan is such eyesight, he glanced at Xiao Yiqing, and immediately found that he would be wrong, and his momentum sank suddenly.

Xiao Yiqing, who was at the door, felt that his body was heavy, his back bent suddenly, his back seemed to be pressed against a mountain, and his internal organs were displaced.

Fortunately, this time is not long, and in a moment, it will be normal. Getting a chance to breathe, Xiao Yiqing didn't dare to raise his head, and hurriedly rolled outside.

After Xiao Yiqing stepped back, someone who was embarrassed and angry jumped up from the couch and paced back and forth in the room.

His steps are steady, his legs are straight, and he has a sense of strength and beauty, which is rumored to be injured by the outside world.

After turning around the room several times, Xiao Yan regained his expressionless face, from the childish appearance of annoyance and anger just now, to his original calm and self-confidence.

After calming down, Xiao Yan began to think about a question, he felt that Lin Long was a variable in his calm and powerful life, uncontrollable, annoying, and must be nip in the bud.

Therefore, after in-depth thinking, he decided to meet Lin Long in person.

Then, the wise and martial prince of the world made a disciple and sneaked into someone's boudoir in the middle of the night in the third watch-
