Lin Bei read the letter, and his face changed greatly.

King Jing's eyes were calm and calm, and he said: "I heard that in three days, we will set off, if there is no accident, in a few months, we will enter Beijing." Xin Guo is going to be lively this time. ”

Lin Bei slowly eased his expression and said, "The King of Chu of Wei came to worship the emperor of my Xin Kingdom, so naturally it was going to be lively. When does the stepfather plan to leave? ”

King Jing yawned and said lazily: "Lao Tzu's imperial tomb has not yet been sacrificed, so you let Lao Tzu go back, could it be ...... You want to go back with Lao Tzu to avoid it! ”

Lin Bei looked far away, avoided King Jing's scrutinizing eyes, and said with a smile: "I have entered your vein, so naturally I should stay in Beijing as a hostage, otherwise, the Queen Mother and her old man should not worry about you." ”

King Jing glanced at him and said with a smile: "Okay, it's embarrassing for my son!" There is one thing, the old bald donkey is talking to me blindly and crookedly, and he said that your sweetheart is unspeakably expensive! ”

"Unspeakably expensive?"

Lin Bei frowned and muttered to himself, "What does this mean?" ”

"How does Lao Tzu know that the old bald donkey's mouth is very tight, and he can't ask for it. Go, call that girl, and accompany me for two games? ”

Lin Bei didn't have time to think about it, and said with a smile: "You are humiliating yourself, her chess strength is not equal to me, and I think highly of you for two wins in three games!" And it's all this hour, does she have something to say to her senior sister? ”

"Unfilial son, I raised you for nothing, go quickly, just say win a game against me, and reward me with five hundred taels of gold!" Zhao Hui took a step forward and made a gesture to kick over.

Lin Bei's figure did not move, and with a slight movement under his feet, the person had flashed a few feet away.

……

Lincito looked at the old guy in front of him, his eyelids rolling sleepily.

"King Jing, it's only five hundred taels of gold, and it won't kill you. Are you going to hurry up? ”

King Jing glared at her with an ugly face, and said unhappily: "You girl is a little patient, okay, Lao Tzu plays chess, you need to think hard, play steadily, one step at a time!" ”

Lynsey was very slow to play chess with the old fellow who tempted her to play chess with gold. There is no half-point favorite. He also said: "Steady and steady, snails are faster than you!" I can play two games with my junior brother for an hour; with you. Two hours, not a single plate is finished. Lord, admit defeat."

"Don't make noise, Lao Tzu has to meditate!"

"Lord Wang. You can't win this game of chess! ”

"Fart. Lao Tzu doesn't believe in this evil! ”

"Lord Wang, speak civilly, in the middle of the night, don't fart, fart."

"I like to talk about fart!"

"Lord Wang. Saying that farts are unhealthy and damage your image. Why don't you admit defeat earlier, let's wash and sleep! ”

"Lao Tzu doesn't sleep today. I'll play chess with you! ”

"Lord Wang, the key is that I want to sleep."

"Young. It's not as good as me, an old man, how did Lin Yu teach you kung fu! ”

Seeing him pull his father in, Lin Xi said angrily: "Don't talk about my father, and then I'll turn my face with you!" ”

"Turn your face, you turn it, you turn your face over and I'll take a look!"

Lin Xi rolled his eyes and said angrily: "I express my contempt for you!" ”

King Jing smiled and said, "Girl, Lao Tzu is very happy with you!" ”

Lin Xi sat down and roared, "Senior brother-help!" ”

……

One day in the mountains, thousands of years in the world.

Lin Xi descended from the Yangu Temple and had a feeling of being separated from the world. After saying goodbye to the senior sister and younger brother, the carriage of the Hou Mansion went straight to Beijing.

As soon as the car started, Chun Ye took out a piece of paper from his arms and said, "Girl, this is last night, when the slave accompanied Miss Nan to give it away, Cui Shishu quietly handed it to me, saying that it was for Miss You." ”

"Him?"

Lin Xi had two bags under her eyes, took them and took a look, and there were only two words on them: "Thank you!" ”

Lin Xi snorted maliciously, with a slight smile in his eyes.

This Cui Sanshao is really bold, and he is afraid that the emperor will leave the palace, if there is really something wrong, the population of his Cui family of several hundred is not enough for the queen mother to sacrifice the sword. For the sake of the master and servant in the past, she forced the little junior brother to make a plan.

How can there be a free lunch in the world, sooner or later, this big man has to ask that guy to come back! Lin Xi smiled like a little fox who had been eaten, with a treacherous face.

She threw the paper aside, and leaned on the brocade mat to make up for sleep, but saw the three seasons looking at her together.

"What's going on?"

"Girl, the slaves and maids are wrong, they shouldn't leave Miss Linnan without permission, the girl's great kindness ......"

"Stop!"

Lin Xi quickly shouted: "You are my people, I don't protect you, who protects you." Besides, the emperor asked you to leave, so it is possible that you still disobey the decree and stay and wait to be beheaded. Come on, your girl and I have been pestered by the old prince for most of the night, and let me sleep with peace of mind. ”

Three seasons of a belly to show loyalty, there is nowhere to say, partial and moved, the three of them glanced at each other, there is a trace of firmness in their eyes.

……

In the imperial study, Gao Xiangye and General Song stood on the left and right, and they talked happily.

After a while, the golden chime outside the hall sounded softly, and the eunuch shouted: "The emperor has arrived!" ”

The two of them were in a state of flux, and stood up according to the ceremony, waiting for the yellow-robed figure to sit down behind the dragon case before stepping forward to salute.

After the new emperor changed his clothes, he sent an edict to calm down, and after calling the attendants to give him a seat, his eyes naturally fell on the two of them.

"The State of Wei sent the King of Chu to envoy the State of Xin, what do the two Aiqing think?"

Gao Zecheng groaned slightly, and said: "Back to the emperor, the first emperor died, the new emperor ascended the throne, the new dynasty, the change of the old dynasty, Wei has always had this precedent." This trip should be done as usual. As a rule, it should be received with the old rites, but ......"

Gao Zecheng paused, and then said: "Wen Ruihao, the king of Chu, is the sixth son of Emperor Baoqing, and the biological mother of this son, Concubine Han, was the same sister as Wen Ruipu's biological mother, Liu Guifei. Before Liu Guifei Xian died, he entrusted his son Wen Ruipu to Concubine Han. Therefore, there is often a private care. Who knew that Wen Ruipu actually ascended the throne. The son of Concubine Han naturally became the king and became the left arm and right arm of Emperor Xianping, under one person and above tens of thousands of people. This time, the Wei State sent the King of Chu into Xin, which shows that it is a respect for the emperor! ”

Song Nian Zhengse said: "Your Majesty, the prime minister is polite. This son is not an ordinary envoy, and the minister thinks that he should be greeted with a great gift. What's more, this time with the same way, there is also Liu Baimei, the general of Wei. The four great families in the world. Wen has Cui, Wu has Liu, and the Liu family is not an idle person. The minister heard that Wen Ruipu's ability to ascend the throne this time was inseparable from the secret support of the Liu family. ”

The new emperor's face was gentle, and he nodded: "In this way, the people sent are all ministers of the humerus. Two Aiqing. Emperor Xianping's move, does it have a deep meaning hidden in the dark? ”

Gao Zecheng sighed in his heart.

Although the new emperor was young, he was indecisive. does not understand government affairs, but the emperor's keen heart is undiminished. In time, if the new emperor can restrain his leisure and learn the way of being a king......

Don't wait for him to finish thinking. But I heard Song Xilang say loudly: "Back to the emperor, Wei Guogang has just experienced palace changes. A few days ago, there was another turmoil in the court, and the Mu family was uprooted, and a series of major events happened, and the ministers thought that they were only afraid that they were here to show their goodwill. ”

Gao Zecheng nodded in agreement.

Xindi saw the two of them say so. The gloom in his eyebrows swept away, and he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Since the Wei State has sent these two, our Daxin State can't lose its courtesy." High phase! ”

"The minister is here!"

"Greet the envoys of the Wei State. It's up to Gao Xiang to bother a lot. ”

"Obey the order!" Gao Zecheng bowed and said yes.

"General Song!"

"The minister is here!"

"Before I came, the Queen Mother advised. I haven't seen the general's wife for a long time, so let the lady enter the palace another day and talk to the queen mother! ”

Song Nian's heart moved, and he hurriedly clenched his fists and said yes.

Gao Zecheng didn't hear it, picked up the teacup, and hid the surprise in his eyes.

……

Lin Xi and his entourage entered Beijing from the north gate of the imperial city, and traveled for more than half an hour before arriving at the main gate of the Hou Mansion.

Lin Xi slept all the way in the dark, if it wasn't for the call of the spring night, I was afraid that I would be able to sleep again. I combed my hair again, combed my clothes, and made up before I got out of the car.

At the main gate, there were servant women who had already received the news waiting here, and when they saw people coming, they greeted them one after another.

Lin Xi took a soft sedan chair to the lady's courtyard, but before she got off the sedan chair, she heard the little maid call at the door: "Miss Lin is here!" ”

Lin Xi said to the spring night through the sedan door: "Move all the things down and carry them to the lady's courtyard." And all those in the room were sent over, and they went to inquire where the master was. ”

The spring night answered, opened the sedan curtain, helped the girl down, explained a few steps to the autumn rain and winter snow behind him, and helped the girl to walk to the courtyard.

I didn't walk a few steps but heard a burst of laughter in the main hall, there were a few voices, very unfamiliar, the master and servant looked at each other, Lin Xi paused, straightened his clothes, and slowly entered the door.

……

Lin Xi just walked into the main hall, but saw a woman greet her, grabbed her hand, and chuckled: "This is Miss Xiaoxi, she looks really good, look at this face that can be broken by blowing bullets, and this watery eyes." Madam, it's not me boasting, like a fairy. ”

Lin Xi looked at this overly enthusiastic middle-aged beautiful woman inexplicably, and her eyes for help had to look at the Qian family who was above the head.

Qian smiled knowingly and said, "This is your uncle and grandmother." ”

It dawned on Linsey.

The Qian family has a brother who is a fellow mother, surnamed Qian Mingyin, and now he is an official in the Yushitai and married a beautiful daughter-in-law, this must be the sister-in-law of the Qian family, Liu.

Lin Xi stepped forward and said, "Hello uncle and grandmother! ”

"Good, good!"

Liu Shi took Lin Xi's hand, looked at it, and said with a deep smile: "Madam, if I have such a lovely person, I am afraid that I will have to wake up laughing in my dreams." ”

Qian looked like a kind and tolerant elder, and said softly: "Isn't it, this child is obedient, sensible, and filial, no one in the house can compare to her, the master and me, love can't be loved." ”

It was as if Lynsey was her favorite granddaughter.

After hearing this, Lin Xi glanced at her lightly, hid the sneer in his heart, stepped forward to bless the Qian family, and said with a smile: "Grandmother favors me." ”

Qian said with a smile: "You have suffered all this outside, and you have been reduced to being a maid in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and your grandmother is more favored, shouldn't you be?" Last night, I didn't see eye to eye for the night your grandfather had been worried about, but I came back. ”

Lin Xi looked at the Qian family's half-blue eyes, and said with a smile: "Grandmother Lao is worried." ”

Liu shook his head again and again: "Tut-tut, such a peugeot person actually sold himself to do that errand to serve people, it is really God's eyes." Madame, you have to make good amends. ”

"Whoever says no, as soon as I hear this, my heart feels like a knife. Good boy, come here, yesterday was okay in King Jing's Mansion. Qian's words were full of heartache.

Lin Xi thought about yesterday's fright, and said with a smile: "Naturally, it is smooth." ”

Seeing that she said a word gently, Qian Shi's tone was very tight, and in front of her mother's family, it was inconvenient to ask again, so she pointed to a beautiful girl next to Li Fengjin and said with a smile: "She is your cousin Shuhong, two years older than you, and the youngest daughter of your uncle and grandmother." You're young, go and meet you! ”

Lin Xi had already seen that there was an extra person in the house, so he hurriedly walked to him and called: "Cousin! ”

Qian Shuhong has a goose egg face, thick hair, and a very beautiful face, obviously inheriting his mother's good genes.

Qian Shuhong glanced at it a few times, picked up the gift that had been prepared a long time ago, and said with a false smile: "This is customized from the Tongling Pavilion, it is a little bit of heart from me and my mother, you can accept it." ”

Lin Xi's heart is small, but also has the benefits of a small generation, the first time to meet, to receive a gift, to celebrate the New Year's holidays, to collect the New Year's money, to accumulate a lot, but also the beginning of making a fortune.

Lin Xi took the brocade box, opened it, deliberately amazed in his eyes, and said with a smile: "Thank you aunt, thank you, cousin." Let Xiaoxi go back to the room to change clothes, and then come to talk to her uncle, grandmother, and cousin. ”

"Go, go!" Qian said kindly.

……

As soon as Lin Xi came out of the Qian family's courtyard, he handed the brocade box in his hand to the spring night.

"Look!"

Spring Night glanced at it and said with a smile: "It's a generous gift, this set of heads, if you don't have a thousand taels, I'm afraid you won't be able to come." ”

Lynsey smiled and didn't say a word.

Spring Night leaned over and said in a low voice: "Just now Xia Feng sent someone to say that Madame's eldest brother was transferred to the Ministry of Rites early this morning, and I heard that the Hou Ye personally entered the palace to ask for it, so I came here to return the gift." ”

"No wonder I want to give such a generous gift, I came to do what I liked. That's it, I don't bother to pay attention to the twists and turns here, I have to go back to my room and rest. ”

"Miss's gift is not the heaviest, uncle, third master, the eldest lady is the big one."

Spring Night gestured and said with a smile: "This Qian family is willing to do it." ”

"What does it have to do with us. You need to know that a person who is an official knows how to calculate best, and since he is willing to give it away, he must know that he will be able to take it back in the future. ”

Spring Night looked around and whispered, "Send it here and there, it's all a family." Xia Feng heard that the Qian family intended to marry our house, so he just waited for the old man to relax. ”

Lin Xi let out an "oh" and praised with a smile: "In just half a day, Xia Feng can inquire so carefully, it's really embarrassing for her, I have to reward her when I go back!" ”

Chun Ye said with a smile: "With the dignity of the girl in front of the master, where do you need Xia Feng to come forward to inquire, some are maids, and the mother-in-law will send them to the door." ”

Lin Xi flashed his eyes a few times and said with a smile: "Spring night, your girl and I are really a fragrant bun!" ”

"Isn't it!"

Spring Night covered her mouth and smiled: "The slaves and maids followed the girl, but they were gone." (To be continued)
