Chapter 248 It is necessary to take a long-term view

Lin Nan nodded and said, "I won't hide it from you, I ...... him"

Lin Nan blushed and did not finish his words, but the love in his eyes was clearly explained.

Lin Bei let go of his hand, leaned back on the chair, and said without a head or an end: "Even if you enter the palace, we can protect it!" ”

Lin Nan shook his head and smiled: "Senior sister, junior brother, when the master was alive, he once said that people live for a lifetime, and each has its own fate. Meeting him may be my fate, and I think it should be arranged by God. However, I still want to keep a piece of self-esteem for myself. ”

Lynsey heard clearly.

After entering the palace, a qiē attached to that man, looked up to people, competed with others for favor, and people's hearts became hateful. Senior sister is such a casual and neat person, how can she survive this majestic and towering palace wall.

Lin Xi held Senior Sister's slightly cool hand in both hands, and said angrily and complainingly: "It's all because Senior Sister is too good-looking." ”

After that, he kicked Lin Bei with his foot, and pouted: "In order to celebrate that my sister has a heart, junior brother, I want to eat grilled fish!" ”

Lin Bei smiled dumbly and said, "Senior sister has a heart, what does it have to do with you eating grilled fish?" ”

Lin Xi cried and said with a sad face: "She has a heart, I can't even eat a grilled fish!" ”

The two people in the room laughed heartily.

……

On the knee-black mountain road, more than a dozen black horses escorted a wide carriage galloping on the road.

An hour later, the gate of the palace opened, and a group of people embraced the emperor inside.

Zhao Jingqi took a few quick steps, retracted her feet suddenly, and her upright posture seemed to be a little tired.

"Commander Sun!"

"The minister is here!"

"Today's events, how to return to the Queen Mother?"

"The emperor can rest assured, everything is in order!"

Sun Xinjie hurriedly stepped forward and said in a low voice: "There will be no difference." ”

Zhao Jingqi nodded with satisfaction and looked at him deeply: "Very good." I like people like you who are cheerful! ”

"Emperor Xie praises!"

"Come on, set up the Changmen Palace, I want to ask the Queen Mother to go!"

"Yes!" Song Gonggong responded.

Zhao Jingqi turned around, glanced at the people hugging behind him, and said, "I went out today, delayed my homework, after a cup of tea." Let Cui Shishu wait in the imperial study! ”

"Yes!"

Matsu's voice was thin and long. In front of the wide hall, it is particularly abrupt.

Cui Jinchen, who was hidden in the guards, tightened his eyes and slowly lowered his head.

……

"The emperor is back!"

Empress Dowager Li wears a middle coat. Facing the mirror, Chunyang behind her was removing the pearls on her head one by one, obviously planning to sleep peacefully.

"Oh, please come in!" Hearing this, Empress Dowager Li hurriedly turned around and said.

Moment. Zhao Jingqi stood in front of him energetically and helped the Queen Mother's hand. Carried it to the bed.

Empress Dowager Li looked at the emperor's face and said with a smile: "Today, the emperor has a harvest!" ”

"Sure enough, listening to your words is better than reading for ten years. Queen mother. The harvest is huge! ”

Zhao Jingqi took out a talisman from his arms and sent it to the Queen Mother: "This is the talisman that the son asked for for his mother." ”

Empress Dowager Li pinched the talisman and looked at it carefully. Warmth welled up in his heart, and he said with a smile: "The emperor asked for the mourning family." The mourning family must be worn by his side. ”

Zhao Jingqi saw that the Queen Mother was smiling, and a stone fell to the ground in her heart, so she got up and retired.

Empress Dowager Li called him to stop.

"Your Majesty, today the Emperor of Wei sent someone to deliver a letter."

Zhao Jingqi raised her eyebrows, thinking about the emperor's deathbed confession, there was a slight meaning in her eyes, and she let out a faint "oh".

"Wei will send envoys to Xin State, first, to congratulate Emperor on his accession to the throne, and second, to strengthen the friendship between the two countries!" Empress Dowager Li's voice was light and calm.

"Who sent?"

"Wen Ruihao, King of Chu, Liu Baimei, General of Wei."

"Oh, it's these two!"

Zhao Jingqi pondered for a moment and said respectfully: "What does the queen mother think about this matter?" ”

Empress Dowager Li glanced at the emperor with satisfaction. In the end, I went to Yangu Temple, and my mood was much calmer, so I smiled and said: "If you come, you will welcome it." The emperor will leave Xiangye and General Song behind tomorrow morning, listen to their thoughts, and then make plans! ”

Zhao Jingqi nodded and said, "Erchen understands!" It's late at night, so let the queen rest early! ”

"One more thing!"

Empress Dowager Li said with a smile: "The position of Qian Yushi, the mourning family wants to move it." ”

Qian Yushi? Qian Yin? The brother-in-law of the Marquis?

When Zhao Jingqi heard the Queen Mother mention this person, her heart was slightly uncomfortable, and she said lightly: "How does the Queen Mother want to lift it?" ”

As soon as Empress Dowager Li heard the emperor's tone, she knew that he was not happy, so she smiled and said: "The mourning family thinks that this person is clever in speech and slippery, and it just so happens that the envoys of Wei State came to Beijing, and it is most suitable for him to handle those trivial things." ”

Zhao Jingqi knew the selfishness of the Queen Mother, but it was not easy to refute because of this statement. And that Qian Yin, as the Queen Mother said, talks about people when she sees people, and talks nonsense when she sees ghosts.

He smiled and said, "According to what the Queen Mother said, transfer to the Ministry of Rites!" ”

Empress Dowager Li's eyes flashed, and she bowed slightly.

"Your Majesty!"

"What else is the matter with the Queen Mother?"

Zhao Jingqi ran back and forth for a day, and fell into the water again, and her body was very tired, but the Queen Mother seemed to have something to say. The emperor had to fight his spirit and deal with it with a smile.

"The emperor has turned sixteen this year, and it has been half a year since he ascended the throne, so he should also think about the major events of the harem."

Zhao Jingqi finally won the heart of a beauty today, a heart only floated in the sky, where did she have the heart to talk about the harem, so she shirked and said: "Queen Mother, although the son is sixteen, the first emperor has a word, let the son get married later." Soon after the sons ascended the throne, the foundation was still shallow, and they only wanted to take care of the government well, and the private affairs of their children were postponed for the time being! ”

"The emperor's heart is only for the government, which is the blessing of the people of Xinguo. Only this harem should also be filled. In the past few days, all prefectures and states have written books, wanting to select beautiful girls with outstanding appearance and conduct among them to show the emperor. The mourning family thought that if they chose to watch it first, and then make a big gift two years later, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds! ”

Zhao Jingqi didn't want to say more, so he could only add: "One qiē, it's all up to the queen mother!" ”

Empress Dowager Li saw that he looked tired. I didn't want to talk about it, but I didn't talk about it anymore, I just wanted to wait for the day when the mother and son were fine, and then we had a good discussion!

……

In the imperial study, Cui Jinchen stood beside the bookcase. The four little eunuchs stood in their respective positions, their heads bowed. I can't tell it's dozing. Or contemplation.

The heavy Zhumen squeaked, and Cui Jinchen hurriedly greeted him, and said respectfully: "The emperor is back!" ”

Zhao Jingqi glanced at him. With a wave of his hand, the eunuchs behind him left with a look in their eyes.

Gonggong Song personally brought the tea cup to the emperor, so he looked at the nose and the heart like an old monk.

Cui Jinchen glanced at Gonggong Song. stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is ...... there."

"It's still your idea. The Queen Mother took the peace charm and didn't say anything! ”

Cui Jinchen wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Your Majesty, act in the future. Can you be careful, today's heaven and earth, my heart is still pounding. In case the emperor has a good one. I have a few lives for a small servant. are not enough to bury the soil. ”

Song Gongyi's words, he hurriedly knelt on the ground, and cried: "Your Majesty, Cui Shishu's words are polite, and the emperor's body must not be a little different." The servant implored the emperor to ......"

"Okay, I don't need to say more, I know it!" Zhao Jingqi listened impatiently, picked up the teacup and drank half a cup of tea in one go, completely relieved.

"I am indeed reckless today, and I will definitely send people to follow me in the future, and I will never act alone."

Gonggong Song said with a sad face: "Your Majesty, is there a future?" You spare the minions, only this time, the minions have already given half their lives, and again, the emperor might as well give the minions a good time. ”

Cui Jinchen thought about today's danger, and also knelt down and said: "The emperor doesn't know, if it weren't for the fact that the prince of Najing was only a hundred meters away today, and he had a little bit of kung fu on his body, and he also knew how to use medicine, it would be a monstrous disaster." ”

Zhao Jingqi looked at the two people on the ground with a hesitant face, slowly straightened up and said, "That's it, that's it, I will never risk myself in the future." Rise up, both of you, I have something to discuss! ”

The two people on the ground glanced at each other, and they both saw fear in each other's eyes.

Zhao Jingqi coughed lightly and said, "I want to take Xiao Nan to the palace, you have a good plan!" ”

Gonggong Song quickly said: "Your Majesty, isn't Miss Lin Nan unwilling to enter the palace?" ”

Zhao Jingqi lifted his leg and kicked it.

"She doesn't want to enter the palace, can I leave the palace often?"

Gonggong Song bowed his head in fear and said: "The emperor atoned for his sins, and the slave really couldn't think of a good way." ”

"Get out, Jinchen, you help me find a way."

Cui Jinchen glanced at Gonggong Song with pity, and said stubbornly: "Your Majesty, I see that the Nan girl is a bit of a temperamental person, and this matter needs to be considered in the long run." ”

When Zhao Jingqi heard this, she seemed to have found a soulmate, and sighed: "I just know that she has a temperament, so I pretended to accept it." It's just that...... Ay...... Jinchen, I don't see you for a day, like every three autumns, in this palace, outside the palace, my days are difficult! ”

Cui Jinchen sneered in his heart. The heart said that the days were difficult, and I stayed in this lifeless place every day, and the days did not pass.

Zhao Jingqi seemed to hear a sneer, stared at Cui Jinchen's face and said: "You don't have to sigh, the Queen Mother said just now that she wants to draft a draft for me, and the big wedding will not take place in a year or two." When the time comes......"

Cui Jinchen was overjoyed in his heart, and his eyes lit up: "Your Majesty, is this true?" ”

"It's true! However, there are some things that depend on my mood, and if my mood is good, maybe I will ask the Queen Mother to let you leave the palace earlier; If I'm in a bad mood, it's not impossible to keep you for another year or two. ”

It seemed that a plate of cold water fell from the sky, drenching Cui Jinchen with a cold heart. He grinded his back molars and said, "Your Majesty, this matter can't be done overnight, and let Jinchen think about it carefully." However, there are two people, and the emperor can't help but get a little closer. ”

"You mean Lin Xi, Lin Bei?"

"Exactly. These two are Miss Nan's closest people, and Miss South will definitely listen to their words. Today, King Jing helped out, and the two of them threaded the needle in it. The emperor doesn't guard against loving the house and Wu! ”

Zhao Jingqi suddenly brightened.

……

The night is getting deeper and deeper.

Gonggong Song summoned the little eunuch who was close to him and told him to send Cui Shishu back to the courtyard.

Cui Jinchen glanced at the little eunuch, didn't care at all, and only let him lead the way in front......

The long alley in the dark night was empty, with only a few sporadic palace lights, dimly lit.

The heartstrings that had been tense for a day suddenly relaxed, and a wave of sleepiness came up, Cui Jinchen only felt weakness under his feet, and yawned long.

The little eunuch seemed to notice Cui Shishu's tiredness, and was considerate: "The slave knows that there is a shortcut, and he can save some time to go to the child's courtyard, but the son can't make a noise." ”

Cui Jinchen smiled bitterly and took out ten taels of silver from his arms, stuffed them into the hands of the little eunuch, and said helplessly: "Master, I am so tired that my legs seem to be filled with lead, where do I have the strength to speak, hurry up, lead the way." ”

The little eunuch accepted the money, bowed, and said with a smile: "Thank you Gongzi for rewarding, Gongzi follows me." ”

With that, he turned a corner and walked towards the alley in the other direction.

The two walked a few feet and passed a palace gate.

The little eunuch lowered his voice and said: "Childe, let's go faster, people are generally not allowed to come here, and if people see it, it will be troublesome." ”

The palace of Xin Si is square and each palace gate is built very similarly. Under the dim lantern, Cui Jinchen couldn't tell which palace gate was at this time, and asked casually, "Where is this?" ”

The little eunuch said softly: "Chonghua Palace." ”

Cui Jinchen shuddered, something seemed to flash in his mind, he let go slowly, and instinctively glanced at the palace gate.

The palace gate was ajar, revealing a crack with a slight light in the crack.

Cui Jinchen took two steps forward curiously, looked through the crack in the door, and suddenly a low sigh sounded in an empty and distant place.

A silver-haired woman's gaze fell straight on the palace gate, without a trace of blood, under the lantern, it looked a little weird, and a pair of eyes flashed, as if she was smiling at him.

Cui Jinchen was startled, and he couldn't tell whether he was afraid or surprised.

Just as he was about to leave, the silver-haired woman suddenly beckoned to him, Cui Jinchen's heart was about to jump out of his throat, his legs were weak, and he fled in a panic.

The little eunuch seemed to be following the movement that he had not noticed, still carrying the lantern, and walked steadily step by step.

Cui Jinchen hurried a few steps, but he couldn't suppress the curiosity in his heart and glanced back.

At a glance, he froze again.

A woman dressed as a palace maid stood quietly at the gate of the palace, her clear and delicate face looked a little abrupt in the night.

Cui Jinchen felt a chill all over, and the doubts in his heart slowly swelled up.

……

It is said that Lin Bei went out of the courtyard and did not go back to his own courtyard, but went to King Jing's study.

In the study, the chessboard had been set up, and King Jing was explaining something to his subordinates, and when he saw him coming, he waved his hand to signal people to go out.

"How's it going?"

Lin Bei said simply.

Zhao Hui listened, stroked a few sparse beards, and sighed: "Sure enough, it is the person trained by your master, who is just as indifferent and bright." That's it, just rush to your senior sister to understand, Lao Tzu likes it. You tell her that if she wants to enter the palace one day, Lao Tzu will accept her as a righteous daughter, and the old woman will dare to do anything. ”

Lin Bei shook his head lightly and said, "Originally, Xiaoxi and I also planned to do the same, but now that I see it, I don't need to." ”

Zhao Hui didn't say much, and threw a letter to the desk: "I got a message, you can see for yourself!" ”

Lin Bei took the secret letter, unfolded it and looked at it, his face changed greatly. (To be continued)
