Chapter 118: The Flower Party in the Palace
A series of schemes one after another, many people think they are proud, but they don't know that they are all in the eyes of that person, and then cast a net, and when they are in a bad mood, they will take it away and kill a few to play.
Of course, such a seamless plan could not be achieved by Emperor Zhaoyang alone.
Nangong Yi ......
Although he never talked about it, Lin Jue knew that he had always been the one who carried it out.
About the fact that his future husband is a "murderer......
Lin Jue: ....... Well, forget it, since this person will cook a lot of delicious food for her, and will disregard her own safety for her, this kind of trivial matter will automatically be ignored...... Well, in the face of major rights and wrongs, she is so selfish and unprincipled.
As if sensing that someone was talking about her, Chen Xueqing suddenly turned her head, and when she saw that it was Lin Jue, her eyes were cold, and then she turned her head away as if nothing happened.
Lin Jue was a little furious by this inexplicable look, and was about to find a place where no one was to hide, but was told that Empress Dowager Xiao had something important to announce at today's flower party.
"Grandmother is coming soon, let's just sit here and wait......"
Ah Jiu mentioned excitedly, there has been no exciting gossip in the palace for a long time, and this time, whether it is the imperial grandmother or the queen mother, they all look mysterious and mysterious, which makes her really curious.
"Is it something important?"
Influenced by Ah Jiu, Lin Jue also became curious.
Not to mention Lin Jue, almost everyone present began to be curious about what Empress Dowager Xiao was going to announce today, important things, and pretending to be mysterious, could it be that Emperor Zhaoyang wanted to choose a concubine?
Although there is nothing wrong with this conjecture, more people believe that the probability of choosing a concubine for several princes is greater. But looking at the unmarried princes in the palace today, except for the three princes who don't know where to play in the mountains and rivers, only the fifth and sixth are left.
The current situation of the five princes. I don't know if my head can be kept, and it is impossible for him to choose a concubine, so there is only ——!! left
Come to think of it. Everyone's hearts bloomed instantly, except for the oolong disaster of the five princes, there are only six princes left! If you are lucky enough to be the sixth princess, in the future, it will be the life of one person and ten thousand people......
Just when many young ladies were thinking in their hearts. A figure was supported by many maids and passed in front of them, leaving a proud back.
"Look at that Li Aoshan, she is proud to be like this, and she is also drunk......"
Ah Jiu also saw this scene and couldn't help but complain to Lin Jue.
Prime Minister Li does have a certain amount of power in the court now, and the identity of the prime minister's concubine is also quite noble, but he dares to be like this in the eyes of no one in the palace? She looks down on herself too much, doesn't she?
Lin Jue's eyes also fell on Li Aoshan's body, although this person usually thinks highly of himself and is arrogant and rude, but he will still be more restrained in front of others. Can ...... today? I didn't even bother to cover it up on the surface, as if I had won a certain battle, obtained a certain treasure, and couldn't wait to swear sovereignty to everyone?
Wait a minute!
Sworn sovereignty?
Today is the Flower Party, and on the surface it seems that the protagonists are flowers, but in fact they are young men who are not yet married, especially several princes in the palace...... Is it possible?
Ah Jiu next to him also seemed to think of this, so he turned his head sideways and muttered softly, "Lin Er, what did you say that the imperial grandmother was going to announce today." Could it be related to this Li Aoshan? ”
"Marrying a certain prince?"
Lin Jue said with a smile.
Judging from the current shape, it is estimated that he is married to the six princes, right?
"Not necessarily, ......", Ah Jiu suddenly looked serious, and this sudden expression made Lin Jue startled. It turns out that this person also has a strict time......
"I remember that after Li Aoshan first saw General Nangong at the emperor's grandmother's birthday banquet, he never forgot it, and then he was invited many times, although he was rejected, but with the power of Prime Minister Li Cheng in the court now, he begged his father. It's not too difficult to find a good family affair for her......" Speaking of this, his heart began to feel faintly uneasy, so he looked at Lin Jue again, "Lin Er, aren't you worried?" ”
"Worried about what?"
Lin Jue smiled.
She knew what Ah Jiu was worried about, but for some reason, her heart was unusually calm at the moment, if that person really married someone else because of this, no matter how sad she was, it would be useless; If not, then what's there to worry about?
The most important thing is that she believes that he can repeatedly save her from fire and water without risking his life, how can this small wave of Xiaolan be able to stop him?
The imperial garden is full of all kinds of flowers, some of which are cultivated by the palace itself, and there are also tributes from all over the world.
Lin Jue and the Ninth Princess sat idly in the octagonal Linglong Pavilion in the middle of the lake, looking at the railing, chatting, and watching the carp wagging their tails in the lake.
"Look at that, wearing a pink spring shirt, it is the youngest daughter of King Qin, the lord of Qingyun, she looks really good, and there are many admirers, in the past two years, it seems that she wants to replace Situ Yan's position in the circle in Beijing......", Ah Jiu was full of interest, and while looking at the fish, he quietly gave Lin Jue a "newcomer" who emerged in the circle of honors and nobles in the court.
For more than a year, Lin Jue has not entered this circle at all, and he is naturally unclear about the situation inside.
"Lin Er, look at that ......", Ah Jiu was thinking about going down, but saw Chen Xueqing walking towards this side quickly, and before he could fully react, this person had already arrived in front of him, facing Lin Jue's direction, his face was murderous, Ah Jiu saw that her expression was wrong, and shouted "Be careful-", and quickly reached out to pull Chen Xueqing, but the other party didn't know what he ate, and his strength was amazing, and he pushed Ah Jiu to the ground in just one moment.
"Ah Jiu-" Hearing Ah Jiu's scream, Lin Jue also realized that something was wrong, and wanted to squat down to help, but before he could make this action, he was pushed hard by Chen Xueqing, who rushed to his face, and his body was suddenly forced, and he was caught off guard, and involuntarily leaned back-
Lin Jue closed her eyes and smiled bitterly, if she remembered correctly, the back seemed to be a pillar, and even if the back of the head did not bleed, it was estimated that there would be a bag in the back of the head.
I don't know where I offended this Chen Xueqing, as long as I meet, this person can always do something to deal with her, these three times and twice, it's really enough!
In a panic, Lin Jue slammed into a ...... Belch...... soft "pillars".
"Are you alright?"
A familiar voice sounded in his ears, and Lin Jue instantly shuddered.
God, the soft pillar that she hit is a contract husband!
Suddenly, a figure flashed by, and before she could see who it was, Chen Xueqing, who wanted to rush forward again, was already paralyzed on the ground, and in the blink of an eye, Nangong Yi appeared in front of the two, stretched out her hand to hold Lin Jue steadily, and naturally took the person behind her, glanced at the contractor, and coldly squeezed out three words, "She's fine."
Frightened, Lin Jue looked at the visitor blankly, and what caught his eyes was an angular face, and at this moment, this face was full of ice.
When she met her eyes, the thousand-year-old ice melted in an instant, like a cold plum in winter, cold but gentle.
"I'll help you to rest."
Nangong Yi looked at Lin Jue, who was frightened, and said for a long time.
At this time, the guards in the palace and a large group of palace maids hurriedly arrived, while carefully helping the injured ninth princess onto the soft sedan chair, while dragging Chen Xueqing, who had fainted, down, this side was very busy, but the eyes of everyone present had already shifted their positions-
staring intently at Lin Jue, who was being helped down the steps by Nangong Yi, he was so shocked that he didn't know what expression to make, he just stared at him blindly, as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight!
Li Aoshan, who was still triumphant just now, had an expression on her face at this time as if she was about to kill, she froze in place, viciously looking at the two people who slowly passed in front of everyone, and her eyes seemed to burst into flames!
The iceberg-like General Nangong actually cares for Lin Er?
Some people began to react first, and they couldn't help but be puzzled.
Although the relationship between Nangong Yi and Lin Taibu's family is no secret, but with Lin Er, there has never been any intersection, at least in the eyes of everyone, they have never seen any intersection between the two of them, this is ...... How can two people who have no intersection at all ......?
Immediately, some people put forward their own opinions, Lin Er is Lin Taibu's daughter, and Lin Taibu has the grace of nurturing Nangong Yi, today he saw that his benefactor's daughter was in danger, and he came to the rescue, this is General Nangong who does not forget his roots!
When everyone heard this, they immediately felt reasonable.
In the eyes that looked at Nangong Yi, there was a trace of admiration out of thin air. Those little ladies who have not yet come out of the cabinet, the wives and wives who have a girl to be married at home, once again silently ranked Nangong Yi among the candidates for prospective husbands.
However, Nangong Yi's next words made everyone present wilt in an instant.
"I have a marriage contract with Miss Lin Er below."
As if sensing everyone's doubts, Nangong Yi unexpectedly opened his mouth to explain, the voice was not loud, but it was enough for everyone to hear clearly. Including Empress Dowager Xiao and her entourage, who had just come out of Jingren Palace.
Empress Dowager Xiao was held by the eldest princess Peixi, and just walked to the imperial garden, when she heard this sentence in her ears, she couldn't help but be stunned, and after seeing the reaction of everyone present, she was instantly happy.
It seems that this young general is far more popular than she imagined......
She originally planned to be a matchmaker for her niece and granddaughter Li Aoshan, but fortunately she changed her mind in the end, otherwise it would be another oolong.
Last time in Cining Palace, she thought that what Nangong Yi said when she rejected Situ Yan was just a pretext, but she didn't expect that there was really such a thing.
