178 Double-faced talent Rare indulgence
The sister and brother chattered about the old days, and the atmosphere was harmonious. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The two masters had a better appetite and actually settled a large plate of lychees and pastries.
Yan Zhu took the crystal glass plate down, and couldn't help but think that when Lin Gongzi came, not only was the master in a cheerful mood and laughing, but he also ate more than usual.
Lin Qichen, who loved his sister, saw that his sister was rarely in good spirits, and had fun together, so he ordered someone to cut paper kites, saying that he wanted to fly a kite for his sister.
Agarwood Pavilion is filled with a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere, and even the work is talked and laughed.
And the two men in the study, talking about government affairs, you come and go, you can't help but work hard.
"Father-in-law really underestimated you in the past." After talking about the change of guards, the regent looked at the concubine who was unknown and low-key in the Xie family.
Xie Nizhi said lightly: "Father's wisdom is beyond my reach. "That's the big truth.
"I heard from the next person, I met Lin Yan when I came?" The regent motioned for the servant to serve tea and asked casually.
"Yes." Recalling this unpleasant encounter, Xie Nizhi naturally frowned.
When the regent saw him frown, he felt accustomed to it.
Because every time he meets Lin Qichen, he is often not very happy, even if Lin Qichen is in place and his words are cautious, there always seems to be a nameless anger piled up in the depths of his heart.
Thinking of this, the regent smiled instead: "Offended you? ”
"No, it's just weird." Xie Nizhi's speech is notoriously simple and straightforward, and he intuitively expresses his feelings.
"It's normal to feel weird, and this king is often made unable to step down by this kid, but his ability to do errands is first-class, and he is not worse than you." If you have to talk about the ability of government affairs, the best among the three sons of the Xie family is Xie Nizhi, he does not have the boss's squareness, nor does he have the innocence of the third child, he is smooth and upright, and he is worthy of reference.
However, Xie Nizhi is a weak crown, no better than Lin Qichen, who is still young, and the latter is obviously more promising.
Xie Nizhi didn't care about the comparison of the prince at all, what he captured was the attitude of the regent towards Lin Yanshi, it can be said that he had extreme connivance and forbearance, and he was obviously very optimistic about him to the point of ignoring the number of courtesies, and this indescribable appreciation was something that many people could ask for but couldn't. The mother sometimes mentions the Lin family at home, that is, Lin Yanshi's sister, and her tone is not lacking in a somewhat disparaging tone, and she is very glad that the Lin family does not rely on the family background in general, but she also committed suicide and was expelled from the sect, and she will definitely not be able to climb on her daughter's head......
But now it seems that the prince's attention to Lin Qichen can be understood as his love for the Lin family, and his grace for the Lin family is also an investment in Lin Qichen's future.
Fortunately, there are no children.
That's the only point to be thankful for.
The eldest sister Su Ri took care of him a lot at home, Xie Nizhi didn't know much about the battle in the backyard, but he also clearly understood that if a main room was defeated by a concubine, then the life after the empty and famous main room would definitely not be good.
His eyes darkened.
In fact, the brothers and sisters in the family are still close to him, although they do not have the blood and heartfelt love of a mother's compatriots. But sometimes looking at those who are dead and alive, and the concubines can't get out, Xie Nizhi is full of gratitude to his mother and brothers-in-law.
To be a man is to be content and happy.
After silently reading the four words to himself in the bottom of his heart, the music was not over, and suddenly there was a 'clucking' sound on the window lattice, probably involving the cherry blossom tree next to it, mixed with fine petals, and then making a rustling sound.
Xie Nizhi raised his eyebrows.
The regent frowned and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
The study is an important place in the palace, tightly guarded, and there is never even a cat or dog in leisure, so how can it be heard.
Soon there was a noise outside the window, and it was the guards searching.
"Back to the prince, what my subordinates picked up was a kite."
Kite?
Xie Nizhi looked at the red-hot charcoal fire in the study, and the thick cushions on the couch, he didn't feel funny in his heart, the spring is cold, there is no warmth, the weather is average today, what kind of kite to fly.
The regent was also surprised, and when his mood was relaxed, it was not bad, but he probably knew where it came from, and there was a little sporadic smile between his eyebrows.
There will be leisure to make kites, probably the ladies in the backyard.
A few days ago, she also shouted that she wanted to draw paper kites and fly kites with her father, and it was best to go on a youth tour and camp in the suburbs...... The regent was so impressed by his daughter's imagination that he watched the princess coax her daughter, and smiled on her lips.
Probably because of the thought of his favored concubine, the regent's face softened a little.
Anyway, it's a kite that can't speak and can't hear, and it's nothing if it falls outside the study.
The two of them walked out of the study and looked at the cherry blossom trees by the window.
"So interested." Xie Nizhi went over and picked up the kite first, and said lightly.
The regent took a cursory look at it, and shook off at the most likely Rongxian, who had only a poem written on it, a light swallow painted, and nothing else. Rong Xian loves butterflies, goldfish or something, and Xingshi made a baby kite in everyone, how can he be so pure.
"The poem is good." Xie Nizhi glanced at it, and his words were concise.
The regent tasted it seriously, sketched a bleak and lonely mood in his mind, and nodded again and again. After looking at it for a while, I found that the handwriting was quite familiar, and after careful study, I realized that this was actually Lin Qixu's handwriting.
Hey, I really didn't expect that the extremely quiet Lin family would also have a rare childlike innocence.
Xie Nizhi saw that the prince's expression was restrictive, so soft that he didn't have the anger of being disturbed at all, and knew that it was the princess's wife who did it, so he didn't ask more, at this time, a few people came not far away, and the one who ran in front turned out to be ...... Lively and cute little Rongxian.
Although the study is an important place, the guards all know this county lord, and they don't have the courage to stop the child who trots all the way, in case they bump into it, it is not enough to compensate.
"Father, I really fell here!" Rong Xian didn't even bother to ask for peace, and stared excitedly at the kite in his father's hand.
"You put it?" The regent wondered.
Rong Xian shook his head: "When I went to the garden to pick flowers, I saw someone flying a kite, and I chased it and found that it was Lin Niangniang and her younger brother playing." Rong Xian always wanted to let it go, but his father and mother didn't agree, and it was rare to see someone realize Rong Xian's wish, so he naturally went to play with them. ”
The respect of the county lord, even if the princess doesn't want to see her, but Lin Qixu has asked her again, and there is nothing to disagree.
Lin Qichen will not deal with an innocent girl.
To say that Lin Qixu is willing to fly a paper kite, he himself thought of the kite that Rong Xian had been thinking about last time, since he wanted to please the child, he naturally had to take care of the child's thoughts, and immediately tied a paper kite.
I didn't think that my luck was so good that I was overwhelmed, and after a while, I was discovered by this ghost.
Lin Qixu had a lot of concerns, and did not rashly enter the front yard to pick up kites, but only sent Rong Xian and his younger brother to the front to look for kites, as for whether she deliberately let the kite go to the study, no one knows, and no one can be sure.
Today, the wind broke the line, and it landed on the side of the study impartially, which alarmed the prince.
Even if they compete for favor with this, the other concubines can only stare dryly.
So when Rong Xian dragged the regent to the garden, Lin Qixu didn't feel extremely happy. No one knows more soberly than her that the princess can tolerate the princess pampering the Lin family, and even favoring the Lin family, but she uses Rong Xian's power to compete for her favor, which will inevitably make the princess dissatisfied from the bottom of her heart, and she has just solved the Han family, and she is really too lazy to deal with the princess.
It's just that today's wind is too coincidental and the line is broken too properly.
She couldn't let that coincidence continue.
The greatest sorrow of being a concubine is that she cannot enjoy her husband's favor and preferential treatment with peace of mind, and she must always remember the knife hanging above her head - the main room.
What's more, the princess is no longer as lenient as before, she must learn to bow her head and be careful.
Therefore, Lin Qixu easily sent away the regent who came in an interest, and the smart Rong Xian was so obedient that he immediately led his father to the main courtyard to play, leaving the depressed Lin Qichen without saying a word.
"I can't use the hand of the county lord to compete for favor, the princess will complain about me." Lin Qixu nested in the inner room, lay on the bed on his side to take a nap, and asked his subordinates to go and complain to the regent about his illness, saying that he had a headache due to the wind and needed to rest.
Lin Qichen understands everything, but he feels sad.
"Silly brother, look away. You'll get used to it. ”
At this time, Lin Qixu coaxed his younger brother to accept the fact that he was his little wife, and it took a long time to persuade his younger brother to recover some interest, and the sister and brother began to play backgammon.
At that time, the princess greeted the father and daughter who were talking and laughing, and sighed again and again in her heart, this daughter is too well-behaved, and she knows how old she is to compete for favor with her mother. It's still from the Lin family.
"I went out to pick flowers, and I actually alarmed you." The princess noticed the kite, and kept silent for a while, but stepped forward to greet the prince.
Rong Xian grinned and held the kite and didn't let go, for fear that an inappropriate one would be confiscated by his mother.
She watched the kite flying over there at the Agarwood Pavilion, and liked to go over and take a few looks. Unexpectedly, the kite string was broken and landed in the study, Rong Xian came to the study to look for it, and naturally he was with the king. However, the Lin family blew the wind for a while, and his body was not very comfortable, so he went in to rest. The Lord Regent briefly repeated the facts.
Rong Xian nodded desperately, pointed to the Lin family's bleak and lonely kite, and urged vigorously: "Mother, let's go and release it together." What a nice day it is. ”
The maid who was accompanying her secretly raised her eyes to glance at the slightly gloomy sky, and was shocked by the ability of the county editor-in-chief to speak.
In the past, the princess would have reprimanded her for nonsense.
But today, the regent spoke before the princess: "Good Rongxian, my father promised you to wait for the weather to be warmer again, and find a good day to accompany you." Now even Concubine Lin is suffering from some cold, you are so young, don't be sick and make your mother worry. ”
The words are gentle, but the tone is unquestionable.
Seeing that her husband said such a long series of words to coax the child in one breath, the princess once again expressed her amazement and pride in her daughter's favor, and in order to prevent her daughter from talking back, she took the first step and said: "There are some dim sum from the kitchen, and the new chef has a lot of tricks, skillful craftsmanship, and the presentation is very beautiful, so go in and take a look." ”
Rong Xian was willful and squeamish, and he had a clear understanding of his father's status in the family, and pouted unhappily, but as a good child, she would not go against her parents' wishes, and obediently followed up to see the snacks.
In order to please the princess, the chef worked hard to make some children's favorite styles, including crystal white rabbits and monkeys fishing for the moon. Rong Xian's childlike heart quickly put the kite aside and concentrated on tasting all kinds of snacks.
The princess casually glanced at the elegant and lonely kite, and she didn't like it from the bottom of her heart, so she gave it to Mama Qin and told her to take it down immediately and put it in the small corner of the warehouse.
If nothing else, it will never be taken out.
"Father, who is that man?" In addition to the basic titles of father, king, mother, concubine, etc., Rong Xian is not very familiar with other daily titles, and will only use men to describe Lin Qichen.
The regent replied casually: "It's Lin Niangniang's own brother." ”
"Is that my uncle?" Rong Xian naively talked nonsense.
Unexpectedly, hearing this unintentional words in the ears of the princess, the sky was shattered, she held back the anger surging in her heart, and asked her daughter quietly: "Did Lin Gongzi tell you?" ”
"No, he still doesn't admit it." Rong Xian replied.
That's good, the younger brother of a concubine dares to claim to be the uncle of the county lord.
Just thinking about it, the princess felt unbearable.
"And what am I going to call him?" Rong Xian continued to cling to the title.
Seeing that the princess couldn't speak, the regent didn't even look good, so he simply changed the topic directly: "Has Rong Xian been to see his brother today?" ”
"I've seen it, I'm very good at taking medicine, and I don't cry."
Rong Xian stuck out his tongue and said, "My brother is probably used to eating it, so he can drink such a black and bitter medicine." ”
The princess can naturally understand that the prince deliberately diverted the topic, and her heart is sad. It's just that I couldn't hide my jealousy of the Lin family today, and I can't help but have a little mistake in my expression, and it seems that I need to pay attention to it next time.
The Lin family has not done anything crazy, and it is not good to face a concubine in front of the prince.
Especially when the concubine room is still very regular.
Waiting for the next day, the princess unintentionally asked: "I heard that Sister Lin had a headache yesterday, how is it now?" ”
"Much better, Princess Xie cares." Every word of Lin Qixu is very plain and modest.
You Shi heard from the mouth of the subordinate about the kite flying into the study, and the trivial things were spread vividly, saying that there was anything painted on the kite, and he couldn't help but look at Lin Qiduo a few times, but it was only a look, unlike Wu Ji, who was the fattest and boldest, she had already noticed the princess's dissatisfaction with Lin Qixu, and simply covered the handkerchief and said with a smile: "Regarding the duty of breaking the thread just right, the concubine is definitely inferior to Sister Lin." ”
However, Lin Qixu was unwilling to respond to anyone other than the princess.
She just smiled faintly, and she didn't even move the corners of her lips, and she could see that this was pure perfunctory, and Wu Ji was no exception.
The princess didn't chase after her on this matter, after all, the prince was still at her last night.
Lin Qixu understood that her future life in the palace would not be smooth sailing. (To be continued.) )
