Princess Jian'an has arrived in Beijing safely, first went to Yanwangfu to meet her aunt, and then entered the palace to meet the empress dowager. Chen Ruijin knew that the Empress Dowager was not in a good mood, so when she came back, she went to Lychee Lane. The princess already knew that she was the one who secretly left a book for herself in Luzhou back then, and she was very impressed.

Because of the mention of the empress dowager, Princess Jian'an smiled bitterly: "Her old man gave me a female official as a dowry, saying that she is more knowledgeable than the rules outside." ”

Chen Ruijin couldn't help laughing: "This is the only way she has left?" It's boring. ”

The princess shook her head and said, "It's not that I can't deal with it, I'm just worried." ”

Chen Ruijin said: "Go back and send it to Rongguo Mansion first, and solve it before you get married." Princess Jian'an was stunned. Chen Ruijin said with a smile, "The third master of Huan has decided not to accept concubines when he was five or six years old. ”

The princess hesitated, "Now that she has been commanded, she wants to dig something out of her." ”

Chen Ruijin said: "That can't stay at home. Although there is no need to be afraid of her, just leaving it there is unpleasant, and it is serious to send things out. But I'm here, so I'll just bring it over. ”

The princess couldn't help but smile brightly: "How can I live up to your kindness?" So he really ordered the female official sent by the Empress Dowager to take her luggage and go with Chen Ruijin, saying that she would go to Rongguo Mansion first. The female officer was secretly happy in her heart, her face was solemn, and she bowed her head steadily to thank her. Chen Ruijin and the princess talked some more before leaving.

When she arrived at Rongguo Mansion, Chen Ruijin led her into the door of Lixiang Courtyard, pointed to a room at random for her to rest, and then called someone to help her with household registration, and specially advised: "Take Grandpa Guo's film to do it, the sooner the better." ”

The steward who did the errand said: "The piece is in the hands of the third master Cong, and he went out." ”

Chen Ruijin said: "It's just that you are in a hurry, and you don't listen to me." I have it too. He went back to get Jia Yu's piece and handed it to him, saying, "Wait a little longer." He walked into the room and asked the female officer, "Who are you?" What's the last name? Luan Zhu, is your real name? ”

The female official was racking her brains to guess what Chen Ruijin's identity was. The girls who have not come out of the cabinet are dressed up, not luxurious, and the clothes are very good; casually called the chief steward of Rongguo Mansion to come and order, and it was obvious that he was a person of status; There is also a film of Jia Yu. Seeing her ask herself, she hurriedly said: "My surname is Lin, and I am the granddaughter of Lin Wen in the Taiyuan Hospital, and my real name only has the word 'Luan', and the name Luan Zhu was given by the Empress Dowager." ”

Chen Ruijin suddenly frowned. The girls who judge the family of the Tai Hospital are the best at medicine. The old woman sent such a woman over, and said that she had obtained some secret order, and even if she didn't, it was enough to meet people's needs. Coincidentally, her surname is Lin, and Jia Huan will take care of her for Lin Hai's sake. Even though he had scolded the Empress Dowager as a sieve in his heart, Chen Ruijin only showed it on his face, and asked like nothing: "Do you want to go back to your own home or set up your own door?" Use the name given by the Empress Dowager or your real name? ”

The female officer was stunned for a long time: "What do you mean by this, girl?" Chen Ruijin asked again. She hurriedly said, "I was ordered by the Queen Mother to marry with the princess!" ”

Chen Ruijin said: "That's right. The Empress Dowager gave you to the princess and followed the princess to marry to the Rongguo Mansion, so she is a person in our mansion, isn't it? But it's up to us, isn't it? The third master of Huan does not want to serve concubines, nor does he need maids to serve. It's useless for you to stay in the house, and you can't waste firewood, rice, and monthly money in vain. It's up to you to go home, or to start a small business on your own, or to find a good family to marry. ”

The female officer looked at her and said, "Who are you?" How dare you make the decision for such a big thing without returning to the third master of the ring? ”

Chen Ruijin smiled slightly: "It's so tight, I happen to be in charge, and it's not a big deal." ”

The female officer asked, "Dare to ask what is the identity of the girl?" ”

Chen Ruijin shrugged: "Is this...... I'm not happy to sue you. Nai turned around and instructed the steward, "Use the name of 'Lin Luan' to run a female household for her, if she wants to go home and let the Lin family handle it herself." The steward answered.

The female officer stayed in the wing room for a long time, and then rushed out and said, "The girl is so reckless, but she has been ordered by the princess?" Isn't she afraid of being called a 'jealous woman'? ”

Chen Ruijin smiled dumbly: "Hasn't Miss Lin heard of the four girls of the Jia family?" The female official was thinking about something with her mouth open, but she suddenly closed it - the Empress Dowager said that Princess Jian'an was picked by the four girls of the Jia family for Jia Huan; And that Jia Siben is a shrew who is famous all over the world. Chen Ruijin persuaded, "Since you are a serious official lady, isn't it good to be a daughter-in-law with someone upright?" It's useless to stay in our house, and our family has never been a woman. ”

Before the words fell, I heard someone say: "Who said that our family has no intention of being a woman?" I saw Jia Cong smiling and walking in from outside. The female officer's eyes lit up! Jia Cong approached in a big way and continued to say the second half of the sentence, "It's just one kind of love." Chen Ruijin lowered his eyebrows and chuckled. He asked, "Who is this?" ”

Chen Ruijin pursed his lips: "The dowry given by the Empress Dowager to Princess Jian'an." ”

Jia Cong rolled her eyes: "If she wants to give people gifts, she doesn't inquire about what people like, so it's better to give money." He smiled and said to the female official, "Girl, don't be afraid, from now on, the deep palace will no longer be lonely, and you can open the sky and the sky!" If you want to go home, if you want to get married, if you want to be self-reliant, it's up to you. Before the female official could understand, he sighed again, "I think that my eldest sister was also a female official in the palace back then, and it took a lot of effort to get out!" You're in luck. ”

Chen Ruijin swept the female officer's eyes, turned around and looked at Jia Cong Huizi and said, "Why did you get that white piece on your sleeve?" There are also on the body. ”

Jia Cong raised his sleeves and took a look: "I just played with flour with his youngest son at Brother Feng's house, and he didn't clean it." Nai said with great interest, "That baby is so fun!" Oops, cute! Less than three years old, soft, and white face wiped all over his face, he died cutely. Saying that, he leaned over to Chen Ruijin's side, "Hey, let's get married when Brother Huan gets married." Chen Ruijin's face suddenly turned red, and he turned back to the house with a disgusted look, and Jia Cong hurriedly trotted in. Neither of them looked at the female official again, so they didn't know that she suddenly raised her head behind her and stared at Chen Ruijin.

No matter how fast the household department does, it is impossible to do it on the same day. It's just that that night Lixiangyuan called the female official to eat and called her "Miss Lin", and Chen Ruijin said that she was temporarily staying in the courtyard for two days. The next day, Lin Luan Ba'er waited for a day, but did not wait for Jia Huan; It wasn't until the evening that he came to chat, so he hurried out of the wing room and went to the hall to ask for an audience.

Without waiting for her to speak, Jia Cong first introduced: "Well, this is the dowry given to the princess by the Queen Mother, surnamed Lin, and my grandfather is Lin Wen, the judge of the Tai Hospital. Sister Chen brought it back yesterday, and Ming'er's household registration came down. ”

Jia Huan let out an "oh" and smiled at Chen Ruijin and said, "I'm troublesome brother and sister." ”

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say." Jia Cong preemptively arched his hand.

As soon as Jia Huan turned around, Lin Luan was stunned on the spot, full of disappointment. He then asked, "Is Miss Lin ready to go home?" Or self-reliance? Do you want us to help you find a matchmaker? ”

The three of them were given these three choices, going home, standing on their own, and getting married, as if it were natural, and none of them were willing to keep her in the house. The woman gritted her teeth and stepped forward to kowtow: "The little woman has no face to go home, and she is unable to stand on her own. I begged the two third masters to send me to the temple to become a monk. ”

Jia Congqi said: "You are good and decent, and you haven't done anything bad, how can you go home without a face?" But seeing Lin Luan's face sad, he just opened his mouth; Where would Jia Cong give her a chance to sell miserably, and said, "That's it." There are many nunnery in Kyochu, where do you want to go? ”

Lin Luan lowered his head: "Can you let me go to the Iron Threshold Temple for a few months?" It can also be used as a refuge in the name of the national government. Wait until everything is settled before going elsewhere. ”

"Of course not." Jia Cong said, "That's our family's family temple. Miss Lin has a special background, in case the princess misunderstands that Brother Huan is interesting to you, wouldn't he be miserable? Jia Huan glared at him.

Lin Luan lowered his eyebrows and said: "I heard that Concubine Ning has a virtuous temperament, and Princess Jian'an is also a reasonable person who wants to come here, and she will not embarrass the third master." ”

Jia Huan said: "She can be reasonable, but I can't." ”

Jia Cong turned his head and asked Chen Ruijin: "Can I be reasonable?" ”

Chen Ruijin didn't raise his head and said, "No." Jia Cong spread his hands, and his face said that he couldn't help.

Lin Luan smiled bitterly. Even if there are thousands of means, people don't even give the door in, where can they get out? I had to quit for the time being. Just went out, only to hear Jia Cong sigh inside: "This woman knows how to measure." If you don't stare at men, spend your mind on a serious career, open a snack shop, etc., you will be able to stand on your own. If you have money, you're afraid you won't find a good man? ”

Chen Ruijin also sighed: "Those who are female officials in the palace are all locked up as fools. ”

I heard Jia Cong say again: "It's a pity, ahhhhh

Until the third watch was approaching, Lin Luan quietly got up and walked to the door of Chen Ruijin's house, without the slightest sound of footsteps. Just as he was about to raise his hand and knock on the door, the door suddenly opened, and Chen Ruijin stood inside holding a candlestick. Lin Luan was silently blessed. Chen Ruijin turned around and went in, led her to sit down at the kang table, sat down unceremoniously, and picked up a Winnie the Pooh pillow casually.

Lin Luan was silent for a moment and said, "I don't know if Miss Chen has ever seen Lord Liu Hu in Taiwan." ”

Chen Ruijin said: "I've seen it." Now he has gone to the West. I couldn't help but raise my eyes to look at her, and coughed, "Liu Hu ...... It's not too young, and my daughter is older than you. ”

Lin Luan was stunned, and said angrily: "Where did Miss Chen go!" ”

Chen Ruijin shrugged: "I'm sorry. After a while, he added, "Miss Lin came to inquire about a man in the middle of the night, how could I not think about it?" ”

Lin Luan's face was slightly stunned: "Didn't Lord Liu say anything to Miss Chen?" ”

Chen Ruijin let out an "oh" and suddenly realized: "That! I didn't take it to heart. He said that the Empress Dowager wanted to stuff a princess for Jia Cong. There is a ability to plug ah! ”

Lin Luan was stunned for a while, and said with a wry smile: "I really never thought that Miss Chen was such a personality...... I can't get out of a thousand words. I only reminded Miss Chen of one thing: it was the Queen Mother who saved the girl back then. ”

Chen Ruijin frowned and said, "Does Miss Lin have any evidence?" Lord Liu brought evidence. Lin Luan shook his head. Chen Ruijin said, "Then I can't believe it." I owed Lord Liu a favor back then...... He said that he was not familiar with foreign countries, so he annoyed the third master Cong to choose a suitable small overseas country for him, and he wanted to fight down and become the lord of the country. Third Master Cong has already picked it for him. ”

Lin Luan couldn't help gritting his teeth: "What a traitor!" ”

Chen Ruijin said: "He didn't owe anything to the Empress Dowager. As the founding father, he has never enjoyed wealth and glory, but it is pitiful. By the way, what are your plans? Where do you want to go if you are a monk? ”

Lin Luan asked in a low voice, "Can't I stay in Rongguo Mansion?" ”

Chen Ruijin said simply: "No." ”

Lin Luan said with tears in his eyes: "The Empress Dowager ordered me to ...... A good student serves the third master of Huan. If you can't, I'm just afraid of Sister Yunxi...... She saved my life. Ask Miss Chen to help me ......"

Chen Ruijin nodded: "I see." In this way, Ming'er, I will ask the third master to beg King Yan. Is it called Yunxi? Let King Yan send someone to take her out of the palace, and the two of you can live together." ”

Lin Luan was stunned again. Chen Ruijin waited by the side for a long time, but she didn't move. It's too late to give birth, and Chen Ruijin wants to sleep. Then he said, "It's been three watches." Lin Luan didn't hear it. She said it out loud again. Lin Luan woke up suddenly, hurriedly saluted and retreated. But she didn't go back to the house, so she sat on the stone steps in the courtyard in a daze. Chen Ruijin didn't bother to care about her, so she rested by herself.

Early the next morning, Jia Cong was still sleeping, Chen Ruijin got up to move his muscles, and when he saw Lin Luan still sitting, he asked, "I've thought about it for a night, but can you figure it out?" ”

Lin Luan said blankly: "The Empress Dowager has lost power?" ”

Chen Ruijin Qi said: "Didn't she lose power since the death of the first emperor?" Even if the emperor is still there, he is not her biological son. ”

Lin Luan argued: "She is the Queen Mother!" ”

Chen Ruijin laughed and said, "Do you want me to move the history book and pass it on?" ”

Lin Luan shook his head slowly: "No wonder Liu Hu left like that." He left, the foreign ocean is vast, and the empress dowager can't help him. How rare is the word loyalty. ”

Chen Ruijin said: "The Empress Dowager is also confused, thinking about something that she can't touch. Relying on his identity to sell a few knights, when he has saved enough expenses, he will discuss with King Yan, go out of the palace incognito, and be a rich idler. Didn't you see the concubines of the Emperor Taishang who were Taoist aunts married in the blink of an eye? Now they have already had children. Lin Luan was stunned again. Chen Ruijin then went to practice.

After she finished practicing, Lin Luan was already waiting in the courtyard, and when she came up to her, she asked, "Miss Chen, what if Jia Cong has to marry someone else for some reason?" ”

Chen Ruijin said: "He's not so useless. ”

Lin Luan said in a low voice: "If he doesn't marry someone else, he won't get important help?" ”

Chen Ruijin thought for a while and said, "He will probably pretend to agree first, and then find another way to settle the woman after the matter is settled." "That's a lie, it's like a liar." People who don't care don't care about it. Besides, he has no ambitions, and he doesn't rarely have any help. ”

Lin Luan smiled coldly: "Not necessarily. Isn't his husband Su Zheng in the capital? Lord Su has been suffering from a cold recently, so he asked the doctor to take two doses of medicine, but I don't know how. ”

Chen Ruijin's eyes were cold: "Is the Empress Dowager looking for death?" ”

Lin Luan said leisurely: "Open guns are easy to dodge, but hidden arrows are difficult to prevent. No matter which of the two third masters of the Jia family is willing to accept me, I will save Mr. Su, how about it? ”

Chen Ruijin said: "No need. Since it is the matter of the Queen Mother, let her exchange her life for Mr. Su. ”

Lin Luan smiled: "I really can't look down on me." I want Sister Yunxi. ”

Chen Ruijin glanced at her a few times, and saw that her expression was absolutely unpretentious, and smiled: "Deal." I smiled in my heart. The Empress Dowager also took pity on her, and rebelled again.
