Chapter 41
Shi Xiangyun sat on the railing and looked into the distance, "Sister Lin, after we go back, shouldn't we go back to Jiafu?" I don't know if the provincial garden has been built? β
Lin Daiyu frowned, "Alas, I knew this was the case, why bother in the first place." Why did I send my big sister to where I was in the first place, I couldn't even see each other, I was so easy to come back once, and I had to build a lot of construction, which was too extravagant! β
Shi Xiangyun smiled secretly in his heart, be content, you must know that most of the silver in the Yuan of Jiafu Province in the original book belongs to your Lin family. It's just that I don't know if without the Lin family's silver, the beautiful Grand View Garden can reappear in the world! It should be, others dare not say it, Mrs. Wang must be the first to want to show off as much as she can, so that everyone can know that Concubine Xiande is her daughter!
"Childe, there are female dependents here, and you can't come up." Behind him came the anxious voice of snow geese.
Shi Xiangyun and Lin Daiyu looked at each other when they heard the sound, and they happened to look at Feng Ping Feng Li, Feng Li was secretly happy in his heart, but on the surface, he pretended to be apologetic, "It's us who are presumptuous, it's really boring on the boat, and I want to come up there to breathe." We don't mean to offend, sorry sorry! As he spoke, he pulled Feng Ping, who was standing there stupidly, but he couldn't pull it. Looking up, Feng Ping was staring at Lin Daiyu's direction in a daze, as if he was stupid.
It turned out that when Feng Li was talking, a gust of wind blew, which happened to lift the corner of Lin Daiyu's hat, revealing Lin Daiyu's delicate face. Feng Ping was stunned for a moment.
Lin Daiyu noticed Feng Ping's eyes, her little face was slightly red, this person was so rude, in broad daylight, how could he stare at girls so unscrupulously! Lin Daiyu was embarrassed, turned around and turned her back, Shi Xiangyun also found out, and stepped forward to stop Lin Daiyu behind her.
Qin Zhu also reacted and blocked Lin Shi and the others behind him, "What are you looking at!" As for the people, don't you hurry up and get rid of them. β
Lin Su rushed over with a bitter face when he heard the news, first pleaded guilty to Lin Shi and the others, and then turned his back to his body, and gave the two of them a bitter look, "Don't go quickly!" If it weren't for the sake of you being the sons of the Lin family's best friends! I'm going to kill you today! I told you again and again before I got on the boat! The second floor is where the ladies are located, so don't go close! You don't listen! If you do it again, you will be thrown down at the next dock! β
Feng Li hurriedly exerted all his strength, pulled Feng Ping down, and went back to the room, Feng Li breathed a sigh of relief, sat at the table, poured himself a glass of water first, and poured it down, seeing that Feng Ping was still sitting there stupidly, Feng Li shook his head helplessly, what did he see, he was stupid for so long, and then poured him another glass of water, "Uncle Huang, have a cup of tea!" β
Feng Ping didn't take the teacup, staring at Feng Li with a pair of bright eyes, "I saw her, although it was just a glimpse, but it was amazing!" β
Feng Li smiled, "Yo, doesn't Uncle Huang appreciate other people's talents?" Why do you pay so much attention to appearance? β
Feng Ping glanced at him, "Before, I was indeed obsessed with her talent, but if the other party is both talented and beautiful, isn't it also a happy event?" β
Feng Li and Feng Ping were arguing with each other, and above, Lin Su was facing Shi Xiangyun's scolding, "What the hell is going on?" Who the hell are they? I remember seeing them when I came, how did they still be there when I went back? Still rude to break in today? β
Lin Su complained bitterly in his heart, but he could only explain with a hard head and racked his brains: "Those two are the sons of high-ranking officials in Beijing, and they were ordered by the elders of the family to visit the master, and the master also has some things to entrust to them, so the girl can rest assured, they definitely don't have a heart today, and they drank a few sips of wine at noon." The wine is on the head, and I want to blow the wind on the top, so I will be reckless. The minion will go down and say a few more words! Nothing like this will happen again! β
Shi Xiangyun looked at him suspiciously, and then turned to look at Lin Daiyu, after all, she was a descendant of the Lin family, and she was not good at acting on her behalf.
Lin Daiyu was ashamed and angry, at this time, after the persuasion of Qinzhu and others, it was already much better, Lin Su was the old man in the family in the end, and she was also doing her best along the way, she didn't say much, "Forget it this time." Don't do it again next time. β
Lin Su complained bitterly in his heart, what kind of characters are those two masters, it is not easy for him to say anything by himself, he just hopes to get to the capital as soon as possible and send away those two masters, and he is so good to make a difference! Alas, if the girl knows the truth in the future, I don't know what she will think of herself!
The rest of the journey was smooth, and when they arrived at the wharf, there was already a carriage waiting on the shore, and they directly picked up Lin Shi and the others and went to the Zhuangzi of Nan'an Palace.
After Shi Xiangyun and Lin Daiyu simply washed and changed, they went to see Concubine Nan'an. The concubine smiled kindly, and didn't ask them where they had gone in the month of disappearance, only gossiped a few words, and let them go down to rest.
Lin Daiyu looked back and forth, took Shi Xiangyun's hand and said with a smile: "I still think about what to say if the concubine asks, who knows that the concubine didn't ask at all." β
Shi Xiangyun didn't speak, only pursed his lips and smiled, and Mama Jiang behind him smiled: "The concubine has been through personnel for a long time, how can she not even know this." The girl laughed. β
Lin Daiyu and Shi Xiangyun looked at each other and smiled, recalling what happened along the way, and then glad that Mama Jiang didn't go with her, otherwise she would not have to be angry!
After resting on Zhuangzi for a few days, suddenly, Princess Nan'an and Shizi came over in person and brought a piece of news that surprised all the heat.
"What?" Behind the screen, Lin Daiyu covered her chest in disbelief, and Mama Jiang and the others were also surprised, how could a good saint suddenly give a girl a marriage!
"The holy decree was made early this morning, and the holy decree was clear, the daughter of the salt patrol royal Shi Linhai gave marriage to the king of Qi as the princess, and the king of Qi has already received the decree, but I am afraid that the will has been sent to Yangzhou at this time. Grandmother, let's go back quickly! Mu Ran, the prince of Nan'an, said. Mu Ran heard the movement behind the screen and didn't dare to look over there.
Lin Daiyu grabbed Shi Xiangyun's hand in a panic, Shi Xiangyun patted her hand comfortingly, and whispered, "It's okay." But Shi Xiangyun had an idea in his heart, could it be that one of those two abrupt people was His Royal Highness King Qi? In this way, a lot of things can be explained.
After a short period of panic, Mama Jiang regained her calm, and her calmness also drove Lin Daiyu, Lin Daiyu restrained her mind, and her face was still gentle.
After the prince finished speaking, he withdrew. Lin Daiyu and Shi Xiangyun walked out from behind the screen.
Princess Yao of Nan'an looked at the slim girl in front of her with complicated eyes, she and Jia Min met in the boudoir, Jia Min was stronger than her everywhere, and it was easy for her to take the lead in marriage, who would have thought that her daughter would finally become the incomparably noble Princess of Qi. What a stroke of luck.
It's just that Princess Nan'an is not a fool, in front of her mother-in-law, she will not deliberately get along with Lin Daiyu, not to mention, she is now Princess Qi. Maybe I'll have to rely on others in the future!
Concubine Nan'an knew that Lin Daiyu was upset at this time, so she pulled her to her side and sat down with a smile, "King Qi, I have seen him, he is a very good person, and he has a good temperament, and the word Ke Chun is used to describe him just right." He is also a noble person, enjoying the prince's salary, whether it is the emperor or the saint, he is very fond of him. Then he whispered in her ear, "I heard that this marriage was begged by His Royal Highness King Qi himself and the emperor." If you have a heart and manage it with your heart, you will be able to live a happy life. β
Lin Daiyu was both frightened and shy in her heart, and only blushed and bowed her head silently.
After going back, Mama Jiang and the others were all smiling, they were all from the court, and they were naturally very clear about the status and favor of King Qi, for them, King Qi was really a very good choice.
Mama Jiang saw Lin Daiyu's worry and panic, so she comforted her carefully: "Girl, don't worry. King Qi is the youngest son of the Emperor Taishang and the Empress Dowager, and was born when the current saint was twenty years old, so whether it is the Empress Dowager or the saint, King Qi is very fond of him. In the future, no matter which of the princes ascends to the throne, King Qi can only be respected as an elder. The girl thinks about it, in this way, is it better for the master and the Lin family? β
Lin Daiyu also listened to the grandmothers talk about the ancients, how thrilling the turmoil was at the beginning, how prominent Prince Yizhong was at that time, and the emperor loved him so much, among the princes, only Prince Yizhong was raised by the emperor himself, which can be described as an eyeball-like existence. But in the end, under the siege of his younger brothers, Prince Yizhong fell out of favor with the emperor, and finally ended up like that!
Lin Daiyu was shocked, she also understood the meaning of Mama Jiang's words, as long as she became the princess of Qi, the Lin family would be relatively safe. This reason can make Lin Daiyu feel at ease more than any reason.
"Yes, Mama, I see." Lin Daiyu's expression calmed down, Shi Xiangyun saw it, held her hand, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
Shi Xiangyun felt a little complicated about Lin Daiyu having such a home, and he was happy for Lin Daiyu, if it was really like what Mama said, then King Qi was really suitable for Sister Lin. Sister Lin is a somewhat naΓ―ve person in her bones, and King Qi's temperament should be like this. Sister Lin has such a destination, which is much better than someone like Jia Baoyu who has no responsibility. On the other hand, Shi Xiangyun was also a little sour in his heart, how old Sister Lin is, it has already been decided. Alas, this is the case in this era, women are married early, maybe it will be their turn soon. Alas, I don't know, who is that half of yourself?
She remembered that her official partner in the original book was that Wei Ruolan! It stands to reason that with her family background, Wei Ruolan is already a very good choice. But she remembered that Wei Ruolan's health didn't seem to be very good, and in the end she died early. Hey, that seems like a good choice! I have so many family businesses left by my father, and I have a sister who is a princess, even if I really become a widow, it is a good thing! How free!
Forget it, take it one step at a time! Shi Xiangyun thought optimistically.
