In the afternoon of the next day, I went to the study.

Situ Yueshan, the Shuntian Emperor with a sick face, sat behind the imperial case, looked at Lin Zhong who was bowing and bowing under the seat, and the veiled woman, and asked, "Are you Lin Wanyan?" "The slightly hoarse voice is a little out of breath.

"It's the people's girl!" Mu Yu lowered his eyes and replied.

"Get up!" Then he said to the palace man: "Give the old marquis a seat!" "This Lin Zhong is a veteran of the three dynasties, and even the first emperor respected him for three points.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Lin Zhong got up and sat down, and Mu Yu stood beside him.

"You don't have to be restrained, look up at me!"

"Yes!" Mu Yu raised his head slightly, a pair of bright eyes quickly glanced at the person on the seat, on the thin and pale face, the two thick black eyebrows looked a little abrupt, although the eye sockets were deep, but the eyes were still attentive. I only know that the emperor is not in good health, but I don't want to be so weak.

"Why are you still veiled when you see me?" Emperor Shuntian frowned slightly, and said with some displeasure.

"Back to the emperor, the people's daughter was poisoned and ruined, and she was frightened, so she had to cover her face with a veil, and ask the emperor for forgiveness for disrespect!" Mu Yu lowered his eyes slightly.

Before going to bed last night, Ling Shuang suddenly remembered the advice of the stinky old man when she went down the mountain, saying that if she couldn't avoid entering the palace, she must not show her true face.

Although the stinky old man is stubborn on weekdays, he will not joke about this kind of thing in vain, there must be a reason for him, and Mu Yu temporarily thought of this way to deal with it.

Emperor Shuntian motioned to the eunuch beside him to come forward to check, and after receiving confirmation, he nodded silently. Staring at the clear eyes with long eyelashes, he was momentarily stunned, but soon recovered to his original state.

"I heard that you came to the door with a golden hand ring to find a relative? I wonder where you have been all these years. Who do you live with? How did you get out back then? The Jingwei sent out that year searched for three whole months, but he didn't find half a trace, which made him have to be curious.

Mu Yu's heart was slightly cold, the corners of his mouth raised a trace of sneer, and he replied quietly: "Back to the emperor, the folk girl has been living with her master under the Beiling Snow Mountain all these years. The events of that year were still small, and as for the experience, I really have no memory. It wasn't until the master was seriously ill half a year ago that she said that the girl was rescued by her 14 years ago, and returned the gold bracelet she wore when she was a child, saying that she could find her relatives with this bracelet. After the master passed away, the folk girl went south to find her relatives, and she didn't want to find her grandfather so quickly, but it's a pity... Parents ....... Speaking of this, his throat choked, and his eyes as clear as water were full of grievances and sadness, and Emperor Shuntian was worried for a while.

"As far as I know, the golden hand ring is engraved with the words 'Rongguo Marquis Mansion', since she saved you, why didn't she send you back to receive the reward?" Half-ringing, he suppressed the emotions in his heart, and his calm and sharp gaze reappeared in his sunken eye sockets.

The master said that she was a person in the rivers and lakes, and she didn't want to have anything to do with the people of the court, and she had a lonely personality and no one to accompany her, so she came up with the idea of taking Wanyan as an apprentice. As for receiving rewards, the master has always regarded money as something external to his body, and he will not be tempted by it. ”

Emperor Shuntian stared at the woman in front of him in deep thought, as if thinking about her words, as if he wanted to see something else through her eyes.

Seeing this, Lin Zhong opened his mouth and said: "The saint doesn't know, those people in the rivers and lakes have always acted strangely and impermanently, and when the old minister led his troops to fight, he also met many friends in the rivers and lakes, and he knows his temperament very well. If it weren't for her to come to the rescue, I'm afraid that Wanyan is no longer alive now, not to mention that she also taught Wanyan a hand of medical skills, if she hadn't passed away, the old minister really wanted to come to the door to thank her! ”

When Emperor Shuntian heard this, he nodded thoughtfully, and then said with a smile: "The old marquis is right, there are indeed many capable people in the rivers and lakes with strange temperaments. But in any case, after fourteen years, Wanyan can come back safely, this is the greatest luck, if the Marquis of Rong and his wife have knowledge, they will also be gratified, I also forget about it!" Immediately, his face relaxed, and he pointed to the tea that had just been served and said to the two: "I haven't drunk tea with the old marquis for many years, this is this year's Xingong's Ming Qian tea, you can taste it!" ”

When the two of them heard this, they took the teacup and tasted it.

Mu Yu opened the tea lid, raised his eyes lightly, and inadvertently saw a faint blue and black under Emperor Shuntian's eyes, and was slightly stunned, it seems that the emperor's illness is more serious than she imagined.

Emperor Shuntian put down the teacup, and then said: "Wanyan returned safely, Yu Hou Mansion and Changli are all happy events, I originally wanted to hold a banquet in the palace to celebrate, but I was not happy, I am afraid that I can't withstand this toss, so I can only give up." However, I have already ordered someone to prepare a reward, and I will send someone to send it to the Hou Mansion later. In addition, when the Marquis of Rong Guohou and his wife sacrificed their lives for the country, they had no children under their knees, and there was no successor to this title, but thinking of the merits of the two of them during their lifetimes, I decided to entitle Lin Wanyan as the 'Lord of Huai'en', in order to thank God for the virtue of good life! ”

"Thank you!"

"The people thank the Holy Grace!"

"Get up! The Marquis of Rongguo's Mansion is a loyal martyr, this is the glory that it deserves, and in this way, it also makes up for my regrets for many years! Probably after talking for a long time, his pale face showed tiredness.

Lin Zhong didn't get up, he was still prostrate on the ground, and buried his head and said: "The emperor is very kind to the Rongguo Marquis Mansion, Lin Zhong is grateful, and he shouldn't think about it anymore." However, there are only two of my grandparents and grandchildren left in the Hou Mansion, Wanyan has reached the age of seventeen, and has not yet been married, and the old minister is old, like a candle in the wind. Therefore, the old minister shook his courage and wanted to ask the emperor to marry Wanyan! The words were sincere, full of the feelings of an old man licking calves.

Emperor Shuntian's half-closed eyes suddenly opened, and he looked at the two of them in deep thought. Half a sound before he said: "Old marquis, please get up and speak!" He waved his hand to signal Mu Yu to help him up, and then said: "It is reasonable for the old marquis to resign, but Wanyan has just come back, and you are willing to let her marry and not keep her by your side for two years?" ”

"Back to the emperor, the old minister can wait until she comes back in his lifetime is satisfied, if she misses her lifelong happiness because of her own selfish thoughts, then the old minister can't be blind to death, and I hope the emperor will fulfill the wish of the old minister!" The white hair on his head trembled with the ups and downs of the words, and people couldn't help but feel pity.

"It's easy to get married, but I don't know who is Wanyan's lifelong happiness, does the old marquis have a suitable candidate in his heart?" The face that was already tired was now refreshed because of this unexpected topic, and even his eyes were even more abrupt.

"Since it is Wanyan's marriage, Lao Chen wants her to be her own master!"

"Grandpa! Wanyan is willing to accompany grandpa! Mu Yu handed him a teacup and said softly.

"Nonsense! Grandpa is old, maybe one day it will be gone, leaving you alone, lonely, let me face your parents under the nine springs. Silly boy, the Holy One is so benevolent and willing to give you a marriage, this is a grace that the world can't even think of, why don't you hurry up and kowtow to thank you! Lin Zhong lovingly rebuked the pastoral rumor.

"Your Majesty, the people's daughter ......" Mu Yu knelt down, embarrassed and slightly shy.

"It's rare for the old marquis to feel so sorry for you, and I am also willing to be an adult, so you can tell me who you want to marry?" Emperor Shuntian leaned back with his back straight, and his deep-set eyes were sharp at the moment.
