Chapter Forty-Eight: The Priest and the Army

"Sister Yan'er, you should have a good rest now, what book are you reading?" , Lin Jue moved the embroidery pier and sat on the edge of the soft couch.

"This word is spread ten, ten is spread to hundreds, and the more it is spread, the more it is spread, the more unseemly, as if I am already in danger of life, you don't know, because that person made a move, I didn't suffer any injuries......", speaking of this, Situ Yan blinked, "By the way, Ah Jue, which family saved me just now, I will write it down, so that my father can come to thank him in the future." ”

Looking at the tone of Lin Jue's speech to that person just now, the two of them seemed to know each other very well, but how could this be? With Lin Jue's temperament, how could the nobles in Beijing be familiar with her? But that person's appearance is not like an ordinary person, could it be that he is a son of an expatriate minister's family? Or the son of a provincial prince?

"You mean Nangong Yi?"

Lin Jue was a little surprised, how could they all ask her about the facial paralysis.

"Nangong? Could it be that he is a son of the Southern Imperial Merchant family? ”

Situ Yan raised her head and asked, she remembered that her master had said that there was a big clan in the south that controlled almost the commerce and trade of the entire Great Cause Country. But this Nangong clan has always been rooted in the south, and suddenly going north, could it be that there is any change in the direction of the wind?

Lin Jue didn't know that Situ Yan's thoughts in her heart had turned a thousand times, but based on the question she had just asked, she knew that this person was thinking too much, so she corrected with a smile, "Sister Yan'er, you think too much." This person is not a child of a big clan at all, he is just my father's apprentice, and he is also half of our family's guardβ€”β€”! ”

Moreover, the man was not yet freed from slavery. The last sentence, Lin Jue didn't say it, just sighed again, this Nangong Yi, if he was born in an official family, with his appearance and martial arts, even if he is not promising, he can marry a beautiful girl and enjoy the wealth of a lifetime. It's a pity......

"How so? Jue, aren't you kidding me? Situ Yan couldn't believe it, but the light in her eyes dimmed a little.

Such a character is just a guard of the Taibu family?

"It's true! If Sister Yan'er doesn't believe it, she can sit at home another day, and she will know when she sees it......"

We were chatting when someone at the door suddenly asked to see us.

After a while, a beautiful maid Yingying wearing a pink armor walked in and blessed Lin Jue.

"Miss Lin's dizziness, the eldest princess appreciated it very much, and specially ordered me to send something to ......"

What?

Lin Jue froze instantly.

At this time, shouldn't you send something to appease the frightened Situ Yan? Although she was also very satisfied with her dizziness, she could be rewarded at such a time, or was it in Situ Yan's house? Is the eldest princess sure that what she gave her was a reward, not a dose of life-boosting medicine?

"Ah Jue, why are you still stunned, why don't you hurry up and thank you?" , compared with Lin Jue's dumbfoundedness, Situ Yan was down-to-earth and generous.

Under her reminder, although Lin Jue felt inappropriate in her heart, she still respectfully thanked her, the eldest princess's reward, in addition to obediently accepting thanks, is there any other choice?

"Aunt Huang, I don't understand very well, why did you suddenly send so many things to Lin Er?"

Lord Miao asked casually while arranging vegetables for the eldest princess.

In her impression, it seems that Situ Yan is also very favored by the imperial aunt. But today's approach is obviously slapping Situ Yan's face, and it is also very loud.

"Miao'er, you must know that in this world, many things are not absolute. If the scale is not flat, then the thing that is weighed out of the scale will not be allowed to ......", the eldest princess Peixi took a sip of soup gently, as if she was answering, and as if she was talking to herself.

Although the Shangsi Festival is full of oolongs, Lin Jue still has gains from such a trip, such as the two large boxes of gold and silver jewelry and silk silk.

Merely...... Looking at the two boxes, Lin Jue sighed silently, the eldest princess suddenly gave her so many rewards, it didn't seem to be as simple as it seemed. A thought faintly popped up in my heart, and Situ Yan's exquisite face appeared in front of me, is it because of Situ Yan? Could it be that the eldest princess wants her to suppress Situ Yan?

That's it, Lin Jue shook her head, too lazy to think too much, anyway, with these two boxes of things to press the bottom, she is barely a person with spare money in her hands, the most important thing at the moment is to ask her father, Master Lin, to agree to let her participate in the selection of the chief priest. After all, the rule that she can't marry after becoming a big secretary seems a little difficult to accept for Lin Taibu, who is eager to let her get married.

"Dad, I have something to discuss with youβ€”"

Before Lin Jue's words were finished, he saw Nangong Yi also standing in the study, judging from his expression, the two seemed to be talking about something.

"Ah Jue, what is so important? And you came to discuss with me? ”

Looking at the baby daughter with a serious face, Lin Taibu's face was full of doting. Ah Jue knows that she has discussed things with him, does it mean that she is starting to be sensible?

It's good to be sensible, when he is busy with the things at hand after a while, he has to be free, look for a good family, and then let Ah Jue marry beautifully...... When Ah Jue has a good home, he can start thinking about his own Zhishi problem.

"Dad, I want to participate in the selection of the Grand Priest."

Seeing that Lin Taibu was in a good mood, Lin Jue looked at him and said with a smile.

"W-What?!"

Lin Mi almost jumped out of his chair! He's probably too old, right? His daughter, the second lady of the Lin family, who has always admired the six princes, actually wants to run for the election!? You must know that although this great priest is good-sounding, it has always been controlled by the disciples of Yuanping Palace, where is this Yuanping Palace? To put it bluntly, it's a Taoist temple! And it's also a Taoist temple composed of Taoist aunts!

This one or two, how can you pick the days of his rest to find trouble for him? If he had known that, he wouldn't be at home today!

"Ah, Ah Jue, what did you just say, Dad didn't hear it clearly......"

"Dad, I want to participate in the selection of the Great Priest!" , Lin Jue repeated word by word.

After reconfirming, Lin Taibu rolled his eyes and almost fainted. He knew that his daughter was not so sensible, and suddenly she wanted to discuss things with him, which made him happy in vain, but it turned out to be discussing this kind of thing! He refuses to negotiate!!

Nangong Yi, who had been listening silently beside her, was also a little surprised, this woman was going to participate in the selection of the great priest? Although with Lin Er's ability, the possibility of being selected is very low, but there are always exceptions to everything, once he is selected, it is equivalent to becoming a monk? Could it be that this person was really stimulated by the six princes to change his temperament, and he actually wanted to be the chief priest?

A relative: You don't know how to cook, stir-fry, make soup, or stew meat, so what else will you have?

Me: Stay up late.
