156 Ascend (I)

This day is coming. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

On the second day of February, the dragon raised its head.

The earth is thawing, and spring ploughing is about to begin. The emperor sacrificed to the heavens, prayed for a bumper harvest of grains in the coming year, and then went to the suburbs of Beijing to plough the fields himself.

Lin Qichen hurried back to Kyoto the day before, his appearance was terrifying, and the moment Lin Qixu, who was the most immovable, saw his younger brother, he also turned red with those two eyes that were as light as water and had no desire or desire.

If I changed to an ordinary sister, I would have been crying for a long time.

The regent is the one who has seen Lin Qichen return from blood, when he hunted down the mountain, the group greeted the vigorous morning sun, and the light golden light was refracted on the blood color that was so thick that it was almost clumped, weaving a magnificent and peculiar scene.

It is not like this night, when the wind and rain are like darkness, and the darkness is like ink.

Lin Qichen, who returned in the night, was filled with deep obscurity even in blood.

"You-how can you ...... like this" Lin Qixu was worried and urgent, and had already lured his younger brother in, and took out the gauze potion with his hands and feet skillfully, and the movements in his hands did not stop for a minute.

After Lin Qichen's wound was bandaged, he nodded on one knee and didn't say anything, only said: "Be sure to ask the prince and sister not to leak the news, I don't want to stay in the palace for a long time." ”

The regent nodded quietly, but men are not always more careful than women, Lin Qixu had already instructed Pei Jiu to prepare some simple food, no need to alarm others to get up at night to cook, just hurry.

Then sandwiched two pieces of warm egg cakes, Lin Qichen hurriedly entered the palace in the spring rain.

The night is deep and dewy, and the spring cold makes people shiver.

Lin Qixu wore a light cotton wool cloak and stood under the porch and sighed deeply.

"Your brother has his own measure." Seeing the worry in her eyes, the regent was relieved.

Lin Qixu nodded slowly: "I can only believe it like this." "It seems that being a military general is too bad, not to mention blood and tears, even a head is carried in her hand all the time, if the time is right in the future, she will ask Lin Qichen to turn her back to be a civil official.

The regent had already heard from the princess about the Xie family's partial branch and the Li family's mother's family, and said: "Even the auxiliary princes are involved a lot, not to mention the other powerful people in the court, there are always one or two bold ones, and they like to rush the new officials to take office and light the three fires to be traitors." ”

In terms of boldness, it really can't be compared with the Lin family.

The regent glanced at Lin Qixu thoughtfully.

I didn't think that the latter was sensitive, and immediately replied with a knowing little look, and she retracted her choked meaning: "If you dare to do it, you must dare to do it, and Qichen's blood will not be shed in vain." ”

Indeed, blood can flow.

As long as you don't die, there will always be a day to get it back.

When Lin Qichen stepped on the threshold of the Fuguo Mansion, he did not have a bright future, a good career, and the enthusiasm to get ahead in his mind, and what immediately jumped into his eyes was Xie Yi's bright and flower-like smiling face.

The shyness and love hidden in the colorful maple leaves.

There is red blazing and showy.

Intense and endless.

Lin Qichen's delicate eyes lasted for a long time, so that the tea-making maid in the study was seen to have pink cheeks. Xie Xin, who came slowly, cleared his throat humanely, and while secretly approaching Lin Qichen, he snickered: "What, I fell in love with this girl?" ”

"You're not serious again." Lin Qichen hid all kinds of nostalgia in the depths and smiled lightly.

However, he is dressed today, handsome and elegant, and he has covered up a bit of martial arts carelessness. Lin Qichen was originally a gentle and jade-like son, and when he took off his armor and uniform, he was really a jade-faced man.

Xie Xinzhi said with a smile: "The new girl who came from Feiyin Pavilion a few days ago, didn't you take a look at it first?" It's all men, who are they pretending to fool here? You also brought Zheng Yuan's kid there, why didn't you call me, it's too unrighteous. ”

In line with his sincere awe of Xie Fu, Lin Qichen very much wanted to leave a good impression in front of Xie Bingwen, who might become the "father-in-law", but Xie Xinzhi's big mouth shouted peachy news, and all the maids and women hung their heads, judging from their swaying shoulders, Lin Qichen wanted to cover Xie Xinzhi's mouth.

The two hadn't seen each other for a while, and they were bustling and laughing.

until someone approached outside the door.

Probably because of a friendship with Lin Yanxuan when he was young, Xie Bingwen, who has always been a good person, has a very soothing face, and even his steps are lighter than before, and his expression is always gentle and humble to his children and nephews.

"Lin Gongzi is young, but he is very good at errands."

Lin Qichen shook his eyelids before he slowly got up, bowed and said, "In front of Grandpa Guo, I really don't dare to be this name." ”

Xie Bingwen looked at him for a while and said with a smile: "You are very similar to Lord Lin when you were young. "Taking a closer look today, it's really no wonder that Lin Yanxuan is thinking about this son non-stop.

It is a glorious thing for the son and grandson of Xiao's father, not to mention that Lin Yanxuan is also a famous man.

But somehow, Lu Zhiru Xie Xinzhi also saw Lin Qichen's face change suddenly, gloomy and hateful.

Xie Xinzhi felt some urgency and remorse for his friend, the first thing to investigate when he entered the dynasty as an official was character, and the first thing in character was filial piety, his father was the head of a hundred officials, and it was a great benefit to be able to show up in front of him to face Qichen's future, Qichen was usually very calm, why did he suddenly say that he turned his face?

Even Xie Bingwen was frightened by Qi Chen's appearance.

After a long time, Lin Qichen controlled his facial expression, only a paralyzed face remained, no sadness or joy, and the corners of his mouth opened a little gap, as if he was admired... ridiculed: "The Duke of Fuguo is worthy of being the first person in the court, and the younger generation sighs to himself." ”

Xie Bingwen looked at him for a moment before turning his head to his son and saying, "Believe it, you step back first." ”

When there were only two of them left in the study, Xie Bingwen put away a gentle face, slowly pondered behind the bookcase, rubbed his fingers against the green suede chair, paused suddenly, but his brows furrowed unexpectedly.

Lin Qichen stood in the shadow of the room, his mind wandering.

Therefore, he was frightened by Xie Bingwen's sudden question, and he thought that Fu Guogong would say a few innocuous words for his wife and distant relatives at most, or remind or warn him, so as to save himself from any crime on the rise of the three fires when the new official took office.

Who knows this sentence "You met Xinzhi in Yangzhou, so you should also know Ah Yi, right?" The boy who was directly frightened was suddenly shocked.

Lin Qichen was like a fish out of the water, his cheeks bulged slightly, and his whole face was full of disbelief.

He couldn't even ask, "How did Grandpa Guo find out?" ”

Superfluous and stupid.

Obviously, this old man who is good at figuring out people's hearts and has been training the court for decades has noticed it.

And the spearhead is directed at Lin Qichen.

Xie Bingwen asked, "Does your sister know?" ”

"Yes."

Xie Bingwen knocked on the bookcase lightly, and then asked: "What is your sister's plan to enter the palace?" ”

"Figure what?" Lin Qichen muttered in a low voice, and suddenly pursed his lips and said, "What does this have to do with this?" She has suffered the price she should pay, is Grandpa Guo complaining about whom? ”

Seeing Lin Qichen's gritted teeth that he could barely hide, Fu Guogong was somewhat surprised.

Men in the world always have three wives and four concubines, and when Xie Fu received Xie Yi as the princess, Fu Guogong was ready for his son-in-law's backyard to be not peaceful. The eldest daughter was smart and wise, also thanks to the frequent reminders of the Auxiliary Duke in the following years.

In all fairness, the regent doesn't know how many concubines he has accepted over the years, those sent by his subordinates, those given by the palace, and the concubines hired by the three media and six when he chose the concubines, and the auxiliary prince was almost numb. It is common for men to have three wives and four concubines, and when the eldest daughter knew that the person she was going to marry was the prince, she must have been mentally prepared, and she had been taught by him for many years, so life was not too difficult.

Besides, the son-in-law is basically a reliable one in general.

Probably because he found that his words were too naΓ―ve, Lin Qichen bit his lower lip hard, but his words were so pale and weak, and he was so vulnerable to his quick response and calm attitude before he was truly open-minded and sophisticated.

"It wasn't instigated by Lord Lin, and it wasn't planned by my sister in advance." Lin Qichen reluctantly replied.

Xie Bingwen's eyebrows frowned again. This time, he felt that Lin could only rely on a few days of conception and measurement, without the help of his brother and father, to complete an incomprehensible conspiracy alone, and he could no longer use the word Neixiu to describe her.

"So-" Xie Bingwen muttered, "How many of the merger cases this time are your sister's handiwork?" ”

It is estimated that the vigilance has been mentioned to the highest place, Lin Qichen's reaction and expression are much more relaxed than before, he considered the words for a while, and then replied carefully: "It's just a surface." ”

"The so-called painting skin and painting tiger is difficult to draw bones, and what your sister gave you must be bones." Lin Qichen does things from head to toe, revealing a strong Lin style, either like Lin Yanxuan or like Lin Qixu.

Lin Qichen's smile was ugly, and he said, "I was originally brought up by my sister." "How can it not be.

"The Wuxiang land invasion case could have not been so big." Xie Bingwen glanced at the wound he had bandaged as if unintentionally.

Lin Qichen was slightly stunned before he understood, and sneered lightly: "It's not a big fuss, is it because of that group... Hold it down? Besides, the clansmen of Wuxianghou deceive people too much, and they don't even know how to deal with the aftermath as well as the Li family, and they don't even have the least pension and money. ”

After saying this, he was full of anger and impassioned, and after saying this, Lin Qichen raised his head, but saw something very strange in Xie Bingwen's eyes.

This thing is called memory.

When Xie Bingwen was young, he lived like a freshly dressed angry horse and flew vigorously, completely ignorant of the etiquette of heaven and earth, and the secular dogma.

He was born in a noble background, has a romantic character, and is friendly with the emperor who was still the crown prince back then, how can such a life not shine.

The first encounter with Lin Yanxuan was in the Wuxiang Hou Mansion.

A spring day full of apricot blossoms and rain and mist.

Even the breath was filled with a thick wetness.

Lin Yanxuan, who had just arrived at the weak crown, visited his old friend and acquaintance with the Marquis of Wuxiang through the recommendation of others, and happened to meet the prince of Fuguo who was a guest in the Hou Mansion. Lin Yanxuan was a fledgling at that time, although he did not have the sleek and sophisticated nature he has today, but he had a shallow sincerity, and Xie Bingwen was not the arrogant person who judged people with his family background.

The later time suddenly blurred in his mind, and Xie Bingwen remembered a little vague and sad.

When did there be a crack in his relationship with Wuxianghou, and because of what opportunity Lin Yanxuan stopped contacting him without saying a word...... Xie Bingwen has never forgotten Lin Yanxuan's eyes, mixed with deep emotions, intense to the extreme, it can be said that it encompasses the seven emotions and six desires that a person can have, but Lin Yanxuan didn't say a word.

Xie Bingwen firmly believes that if he were not the prince of Fuguo, and Lin Yanxuan was at the critical juncture of gaining fame, Lin Yanxuan would probably be able to do anything.

In the end, Lin Yanxuan didn't want to offend the nobles too much.

It always has been.

Lin Yanxuan has always been able to endure.

His daughter, on the other hand, inherited the essence of her father.

I didn't think that today, I could see a different style in his precious son.

A courage that his father, Lin Yanxuan, absolutely did not have.

It is estimated that this is the reason why Lin Yanxuan can't give up this son for a long time.

And Lin Qichen, who saw that Fu Guogong had not spoken for a long time, but had looked back and forth thoroughly with a deep gaze, and Lin Qichen, who had come back to his senses or calmed down, was inexplicably uneasy in his heart.

Lin Qichen held on to his weak aura, did not insist on his point of view anymore, and calmed down: "It is a sure thing that those letters came from the master's hand, as for whether the master is careless of people's lives for his own selfishness or has other hidden secrets, this is not for me to decide." Grandpa Guo just said that the younger generation wanted to make a big fuss, but it was better to say that the emperor wanted to establish authority, and the younger generation did his duty as a courtier, and he had a clear conscience. ”

Xie Bingwen has been immersed in government politics for decades, and such a little turmoil has not been put in his eyes at all.

After tasting a cup of thick red robes, the snow droplets outside hit the window lattice, and it seems that this year's spring is particularly cold. Xie Bingwen looked at him left and right and said: "I will protect a good family business for you, you have forgotten the person in your heart, okay?" Judging from his expression, there was obviously a very deep coercion on the face of the Duke of Fuguo at this time.

But for a man who has been carried away by love recently, the power can get out of the way in front of true love, money can let go of it, and the verbal threats of the grandfather of the country are nothing?

Even if this person is Xie Yi's father.

And Lin Qichen never expected that this trip had nothing to do with the government, purely because Xie Bingwen asked him not to chase and beat him vigorously for the sake of his daughter's safety and the prestige of the family, and ruined the reputation of Xie Fu.

He lowered his head and smiled, and said slowly: "My sister probably thinks in my heart that I have fainted for love, and I have shirked how many good marriages have been shirked since I entered Beijing, and I have also indirectly offended many powerful families with strong roots in the capital." Fortunately, she is my sister, she loves me very much, cares about my personal feelings and emotional needs, and since I don't want to marry, she respects me. I believe that no matter how much she vetoes this matter in her heart, as long as there is a chance in the future, she will fight for me. I don't know that this family business is even more difficult, my sister has offended the princess from the beginning, how can the princess be willing to give her sister to a concubine's younger brother, how will the wife and concubine communicate with each other in the future? ”

"It's just that there are some things that you won't understand. I don't need you to protect me. (To be continued.) )
