Chapter 317: Why Me?
The handsome man in front of him, his expression was very solemn, his eyes were shining, and the exhaled breath hit her face, and Lin Xi blushed inexplicably.
"You...... You said! ”
"Linsey, as long as you nod your head, you are my dignified wife. All my life, I will protect you with peace and joy, and I will never let you suffer the slightest grievance. ”
Lin Xi was stunned, and her flustered heart slowly settled.
She smiled, very bright and open.
"Gao Zizhan, are you serious?"
Gao Zizhan looked at her for a long time, nodded with a smile, and said, "It's true!" ”
"Why me?"
Gao Zizhan stared at her, and his voice was a little low: "I want to know too, it's just ...... Everything doesn't have a reason, you are in my eyes, and you are in my heart, that's all. ”
For the first time in his life, he was confessed, and the other party was still rich and handsome, and Lin Xi's little heart inevitably moved a few times, almost too active, and jumped out of his chest.
Gao Zizhan saw that her pink face was flushed, and her long eyelashes fluttered and revealed the feelings in her heart, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but bend at the corners of her mouth.
"Gao Zizhan, I ......" Lin Xi didn't know how to answer for a while.
"Xiaoxi, you don't have to say anything now, just think seriously about my words, and answer me in three days - yes or no."
Konishi? Lin Xi's heart fluttered, when their relationship had progressed to the point of calling him by his first name.
"How would you like it?"
Gao Zizhan's delicate eyebrows slowly relaxed.
"If I do, I will have the confidence to overcome obstacles for our future."
"What if you don't want to?" Lynsey raised an eyebrow.
"I don't want to ......" Gao Zizhan's eyes flashed gloomily, and he didn't speak for a long time.
Lin Xi sighed softly.
"Gao Zizhan. With such a background and such an identity, this thorn must be difficult to overcome. ”
Gao Zizhan's dark eyes flashed instantly. She's really smart, and she can figure it out.
"Xiaoxi, as long as you are willing, no matter how difficult the thorns are, it will not be difficult for me. You believe me! ”
Lin Xi smiled faintly and shook her head slowly.
"Gao Zizhan, do you know the four words Qi Dafei?"
Gao Zizhan looked at her with burning eyes. also smiled: "Your current identity." More noble than me! ”
Lin Xi smiled faintly again, "Gao Zizhan, do you want to listen to my request!" ”
Gao Zizhan pursed his lips slightly: "I want to hear it!" ”
"One couple for a lifetime, you can do it?"
Shocking words. Gently came out of Linxi's mouth. Gao Zizhan's face changed a few times. I was stunned.
Lin Xi tightened the handkerchief in his hand and said with a smile: "Gao Zizhan, what should I do?" Although my identity is only the illegitimate daughter of a Hou Mansion. It's just that the requirements are very high, and it's really uninteresting. So, you think carefully, don't give up a large area of flowers and plants for the sake of my little green seedling. This deal may not be worth it. ”
Gao Zizhan's back was straight, his posture was even a little stiff, and for a while, the needles in the flower hall could be heard. He was silent for a long time and sighed slightly.
"Sure enough, as you wish, there are a lot of thorns in this thorn, and it is difficult to cut them."
When Lin Xi heard this, he breathed a long sigh of relief. She knew that there was not only relaxation in this tone, but also a hint of loss.
"But ......"
Lin Xi raised his head suddenly, "But what? ”
"But for you're willing to give it a try!"
Lindsey's hand clenched in his sleeve.
This...... This guy ...... Willing to ...... Willing to give it a try for her
What should she do...... What was she going to do? Lincy was inexplicably flustered, at this moment, she was completely messy!
……
Because of Aunt Wang's death, Xia was so busy that his feet didn't touch the ground, and he didn't sit down to drink tea, but he heard someone reply that Mama Tan asked to see her.
Xia invited people in.
After Mama Tan met her wife, she said that the young ladies in the house had reached the age of marriage, and they had learned the rules impeccably, and handed in their resignations.
Xia was slightly surprised, and said to keep it, but Mama Tan was desperate to go, and she couldn't keep it.
Xia knew that Mama Tan was quite temperamental, so he ordered the tent to wrap five hundred taels of silver and send the person away politely.
Mama Tan did not refuse, took the silver, said goodbye to the Xia family, packed up her things, walked out of the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion with two burdens, and got into a carriage that stayed on the corner of the street a few meters away.
Gaofu Zhongming Ding Food House, there are people staying every day, so Mama Tan's sudden departure did not arouse anyone's suspicion.
It is said that Mama Tan took a carriage, and after two aimless circles in the capital, she went straight into the collapsed mansion of the Wei State.
The Praetorian Guard at the door saw that it was an elderly woman, and only interrogated a few words, and heard that it was the embroidery girl invited by General Liu, so he didn't pay much attention to it, and let the person in.
Liu Baimei personally greeted her.
……
And Cui Jinchen, the only one who could detect the problem with Mama Tan's departure, had an argument with Gao Jasmine.
Gaofu is a place where things can't be hidden. Last night, Cui Jinchen sent the eldest lady and then sent the third lady back to Pingwu Courtyard, for some reason, it became known to everyone early in the morning.
Gao Jasmine knew that her cousin was leaving today, so she got up early in the morning and planned to see him off. Halfway through, when I heard the maids talk about it, my face sank with anger, and I rushed to Cui Jinchen's room and asked repeatedly.
Cui Jinchen coaxed a few words, and while regret welled up in his heart, he sighed that Jasmine's temperament was too big.
The two argued a few words, and the chamberlain had sent someone to urge.
Cui Jinchen couldn't take care of it, and left in a hurry, leaving Gao Jasmine alone, wiping her tears with a handkerchief.
Cui Jinchen just got into the carriage, but saw the maid Ziwei in front of the third lady coming in a hurry, handed over a letter, turned around and left.
There were only three short words on the letter: I'm sorry.
Cui Jinchen smelled the thick fragrance of ink, slowly folded the letter, and put it into his arms.
A gentle and considerate, step by step retreat; A delicate and unreasonable, pressing step by step. The balance in Cui Jinchen's heart has tilted since this day.
……
Lin Xi sent Gao Zizhan away, and he hadn't sorted out his troubled thoughts yet. Hou Ye walked into the flower hall with a pace.
"Zizhan is gone?"
Lin Xi had a headache: "Grandfather, do you want Zizhan, Zizhan is so affectionate." ”
Li Yingjie didn't get angry but laughed: "Silly boy, everyone calls me grandfather." ”
"So what?"
Lin Xi stepped forward to help him, took the tea cup brought by the maid, and brought it to him: "Grandfather, drink tea." ”
Li Yingjie took the teacup, put it down, and said with a smile: "Tell my grandfather quickly, Zizhan has told you something." Is he ...... with you?"
"Grandfather!"
Lin Xi gave him a disgusted look. Stomping called.
Li Yingjie is from the past, and when he saw his granddaughter's expression, a smile welled up in his heart. He is a person from the past, how can he not see the meaning of this.
Konishi will be fifteen after the New Year. It stands to reason that it should look like each other. Although she has a marriage contract with Lin Bei. But it was his father's helplessness. If you can marry the Prime Minister......
A light flashed in Li Yingjie's mind. It seems that after his grounding period expires, he will definitely enter the palace to discuss this matter with the Queen Mother.
When Li Yingjie thought of his granddaughter's marriage, he couldn't sit still. It's time to take care of the treasures that Xindao himself hides, and when the time comes, he will have to let the child wear red makeup for ten miles and envy everyone.
He glanced at Lin Xi with a smile, and after saying a few words paradoxically, he paced away again.
Lin Xi is such a smart person, how could he ignore the deep meaning in his grandfather's eyes, sit down in the Taishi's chair, and support his chin in distress.
……
"What, you said that the eldest young master of Gaofu is interesting to the girl?" Qian touched the gold bracelet on his hand, and his eyes flashed incredulous.
Gu Erjia said in a low voice: "It's true. The little maid in the flower hall who brought tea and water heard it with her own ears. The eldest young master also said......"
"Say what?"
"Said that I was willing not to take a concubine for Miss Lin!"
Qian's heart welled up.
This Lin Xi is really lucky, he actually fell into the eyes of the tall young master, and he was willing not to take a concubine for her, he knew it was so......
Qian suddenly exclaimed: "Confess, don't let the eldest lady know about this matter." ”
Gu Erjia hurriedly said: "Madam, don't worry, the slave and maid will do it." ”
……
Lin Xi walked out of the flower hall in a daze, was dazed and poured bitter medicine, and sat on the chaise longue in a daze.
Gao Zizhan's low words were especially in his ears, and Lin Xi shook his head violently, as if he couldn't believe that this qiē was true.
Xia Feng looked at the girl's face while making a fuss. Qiu Yu lifted the curtain and came in, and gave Xia Feng a look.
"Someone, prepare the car!" Lin Xi suddenly said loudly.
Xia Feng hurriedly put down the needle and thread in his hand and said, "Where is the girl going?" ”
Lin Xi straightened up and said, "I'm going to King Jing's Mansion to find Lin Bei!" ”
……
In the courtyard of Wei Guobei, except for a few pine trees in front of the court and a pool of water behind the court, there is no scenery at all in winter.
Wen Ruihao set up a table of banquets in the warm pavilion by the waterhole, hugging left and right, so comfortable.
Liu Baimei walked over, and the two maidservants left with a lot of eyes.
Wen Ruihao gathered his clothes, straightened up, poured a glass of thin wine, and handed it to him.
"Mrs. Tan's affairs are settled!"
Liu Baimei drank it all, threw the empty wine glass, and said, "One qiē is well arranged." This person knows the inside story of the year, and he will be a sharp arrow when the time comes. ”
"Why did you come out of Gaofu?"
"As far as I know, she got the news from the palace, specifically, she was very tight-mouthed and never mentioned it!"
"Mrs. Tan is loyal to that woman!"
Liu Baimei nodded and said, "It is said that the one in Chonghua Palace once saved the life of Mrs. Tan. ”
Wen Ruihao stroked his palms and sighed: "Okay, good, you saved Tan Pozi's life, she is for your use." The people of Chonghua Palace also saved Tan Pozi's life, and Tan Pozi was used by her. Meimei, it depends on your ability, whether you can let Chonghua Palace use it for you. ”
Liu Baimei raised her glass to him in reply.
After a glass of spirits, Wen Ruihao threw the wine cup and sneered: "Meimei, have you found out about the matter of the Moxiang Shop?" Who is it that leaked your identity that makes us so passive now? ”
Liu Baimei looked out of the warm pavilion and smiled lightly, there was some unknown lightness in her smile, but it seemed to be a little puzzled.
"Haozi, I used all the hidden piles we have in the capital, and I can't find anything."
"Oh?" Wen Ruihao raised his eyebrows.
Liu Baimei nodded.
"Yo!" Wen Ruihao didn't laugh angrily.
"It seems that the water in the capital of Xin is a little muddier than we imagined, interesting, really interesting. This king likes such interesting things. ”
Liu Baimei was about to speak, when the attendant pushed the door in, quickly served a few exquisite dishes, and retreated.
Liu Baimei said: "Haozi, the water in the capital is not only muddy but also deep, we need to be careful everywhere when we first come here." ”
Wen Ruihao nodded thoughtfully, and took out a letter from his arms: "It makes sense, so this king wrote a letter and wrote everything he had seen and heard in the past few months, and planned to send it back to Wei overnight to see if the imperial brother had any good ideas." ”
Liu Baimei pondered for a moment and said: "By the way, I will give me a sentence, the drills in the army cannot be stopped all day long." ”
Wen Ruihao's eyes flashed, he raised his glass to answer, put down the cup and said: "The king of Japan has been tired of staying in this broken place for a few days, and from tomorrow, this king will have a good experience of the life of the nobles in the capital." Meimei, I heard that the girl in Wanhualou is very famous, see if we have a trip. ”
Liu Baimei smiled and shook her head: "You can go." I have to take advantage of the fact that I have nothing to do now, and take care of the old lady's mind. ”
"Still looking for it? In the vast sea of people, looking for a person who has disappeared for nearly 20 years, Meimei, this is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack. ”
"Do your best, obey the destiny of heaven!"
Liu Baimei poured out the wine in the cup.
"Why was your uncle expelled from the house back then, do you know about it?"
Liu Baimei shook her head and said, "I heard that it is related to the palace, and if it is specific, I have to go back and ask the old lady." ”
"Your old lady's mouth is as tight as a mussel, where can she ask something? Come on, I'll cover for you outside, and you'll be careful yourself. ”
"Don't worry!"
The corners of Liu Baimei's mouth curled: "By the way, I heard that in the past few days, you and Li Congwang of the Xiaoyao Marquis Mansion have been getting along very well?" ”
"Oh, you say that idiot!"
Wen Ruihao's face was disdainful: "This rich and noble son, as long as I say a few good words, he can't wait to hand over the bottom of the eight generations of his ancestors to me, and he is not even vigilant." ”
"What did you find out?"
Wen Ruihao held his smooth chin and said, "It's nothing else, but Lin Xi in Nafu I think it's interesting." This king is looking for a chance to meet her again. ”
Liu Baimei said with a smile: "It's not easy to see you, hand over the post and send some things, and Li Sanye will definitely keep you for dinner." ”
"Hey, that's a brilliant idea, come on, send those two one-person-tall corals to the Hou Mansion for me, and say thank you for staying overnight that day."
"Yes, Lord Wang!" The attendants answered outside.
"Meimei, are you going?"
Liu Baimei thought about the girl's bright eyes, and smiled: "I am happy to accompany you." ”
……
In King Jing's mansion, Lin Bei had just finished sorting things out, standing in front of the bookcase and waving and drawing.
There are a lot of things to worry about today, Lin Bei only felt a little unstable, so he picked up the paintbrush that had not been moved for a long time and calmed down.
When Linsey pushed the door in, he saw such a picture. The young man was dressed in a simple gray robe, his eyes were focused, sometimes frowning, sometimes contemplative.
There was a faint scent of ink in the air, and Lin Xi stood at the door for a long time before coughing lightly. (To be continued......)
