Chapter Eighty-Five: The Royal Family and the Lin Family
The emperor has been doting on Concubine Kang for more than ten years, especially after Concubine Kang gave birth to a son.
If in the first few years, His Majesty the Emperor did indeed like that extremely beautiful woman, but it is unrealistic to want to last for more than ten years and override state affairs.
In fact, His Majesty the Emperor became more and more fond of Concubine Kang after she gave birth to a son.
For various reasons, the emperor didn't want the prince to move the Kang family, nor did he want the prince to involve this matter in Shuofang, so he made it clear in front of the prince, and the matter stopped with Cheng Jingzong.
And His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, it was precisely because he grasped the emperor's mind that he would enter the Taiji Palace to face the saint without evidence, with only a copy of Lin Jian's letter.
After getting the accurate reply of the Son of Heaven, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince got up to say goodbye to the emperor, left the Taiji Palace, and drove back to the East Palace. ”
"It's finished."
Even His Royal Highness the Prince, who was deep in the city, couldn't help but smile on his face at this time, and he smiled: "My father has relented, Master Lin can come back from Yuezhou, with my father's words, it is not difficult for Master Lin to sit in the position of the country's priest wine." ”
Speaking of this, the prince paused and said, "But this matter will end with Cheng Jingzong." ”
Li Xu bowed his head slightly, and said with a wry smile: "It's another step back, Your Majesty's technique of controlling the situation is really the pinnacle." ”
The crown prince frowned and said, "That's it, don't talk about the monarch behind people." ”
"In a few days, the imperial court should push the position of the prince of the country to supervise the sacrificial wine, with the nod of the father, it should not be a difficult thing, don't be in a hurry to write a letter to Lin Shi first, and wait for the holy decree of the imperial court to seal the official, and then send it to Yuezhou, so that Lin Shi will be more beautiful."
"Besides, my father has confessed, how much compensation for the Lin family, Master Lin has suffered a lot of grievances for more than a year because of the East Palace, you and I have to work together to fight for some benefits for the Lin family."
Lin Jian's official career was originally smooth, if it weren't for the prince's party and being attacked by political enemies, he would still be an official in the court now, even if he is not promoted, he is also a six-department squire, why was he relegated to his hometown and suffered the anger of a governor?
Li Xu nodded slightly, and said: "Master Lin has indeed suffered in Yuezhou for more than a year, and I see that he said in his letter that if it weren't for Lin Zhao, the junior of the Lin family, he would almost die at the hands of those bandits." ”
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince bowed his head slightly: "Send some people to protect the forest master, and the people of the Kang family are likely to be thieves." ”
Li Xu nodded yes, and then remembered the young man he had seen in Yuezhou City, and smiled at His Royal Highness the Prince: "By the way, the movable type that Master Lin passed to the capital is also from the hands of this Lin Zhao, the last time I went to Yuezhou, I saw him, he is a young man, quite aura." ”
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't care much about it, and asked casually, "Is this person studying?" ”
"I don't know, but since I am a child of the Lin family, I should have read some books."
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince let out a "hmm" and did not continue to ask.
For him, Lin Zhao is just an inconspicuous character, at best, a little person with some shining points.
There are too many young people who can shine in Chang'an City, and now Lin Zhao is not yet in the eyes of the East Palace.
And at this time, in the Taiji Palace.
The Son of Heaven sat on the soft couch, looking at the direction of the prince's departure, His Majesty the Emperor first frowned, and then said slowly: "Set up the Chenghuan Palace." ”
Chenghuan Hall is the dormitory of Concubine Kang.
On this day, no one knew what happened, only the palace people in the Chenghuan Hall saw their concubine Niangniang, who was slapped twice by the Son of Heaven.
But no one dared to say it.
……………………
At this time, Lin Zhao, who was thousands of miles away in Yuezhou City, naturally didn't know what was going on in Chang'an City, and after he entered Yuezhou City in Lin Jian's carriage, he didn't rush home, but found a ready-to-wear shop, changed his tattered clothes, and put on a new one.
After changing into new clothes, Lin Zhao jumped out of the carriage at the gate of Xingwenfang, bowed his head to Lin Jian and said, "Seventh uncle, I want to go home to see my mother, and I also want to rest and rest, and after a few days, I will go to the garden to see you." ”
Lin Jian was in a much better mood at this time, and said with a smile: "It's time to go back to see your mother, but you also have to be careful, after all, Cheng Jingzong is still in Yuezhou City." ”
"My nephew knows."
Lin Zhao smiled: "The target of those people is Uncle Seven, and Uncle Seven should be more careful." ”
After saying this, the two of them said goodbye at the door of Xingwenfang, Lin Zhao took a few deep breaths, calmed down his excitement, and walked towards the door of his house.
His home is not far from Xingwenfang, around two or three alleys, you can see the door of the house, he just walked out of an alley, he saw his mother, who usually does not like to see people, moved a small stool, is sitting at the door of the house, occasionally will look left and right.
A young girl dressed in green clothes also moved a stool to sit next to Lin Erniang, and whispered a few words to Lin Erniang from time to time, as if she was comforting the latter.
At her hand, there is also a rice basket.
The girl also had a worried face, and it was obvious that she was also extremely worried about Lin Zhao's safety.
Lin Sanlang's eyes were a little red, he took two steps back, wiped away the tears, calmed down, and strode out.
Before he could get closer, he waved at the door of his house.
"Auntie, I'm back-"
After Lin Erniang and Xie Yuran heard Lin Zhao's voice, they raised their heads at the same time, and their eyes were red at the same time.
Lin Erniang stood up straight and ran all the way to her son, tears raining down.
"Zhao'er, you're back......"
While crying, she slapped Lin Zhao's back, crying silently: "I told you to be strong, whether he Lin Yuanda is dead or alive, what does it have to do with you......"
"If you go, my mother will ...... alone"
For everyone in Yuezhou City, Lin Jian's life is far higher than Lin Zhao's, but for Lin Erniang, Lin Zhao is the vast majority of her life, and the life and death of that Lin Shilang is less precious than one ten-thousandth of her son!
Lin Zhao patted her back lightly and said softly, "Ah Niang, didn't I come back from a good life?" It's all right, it's all right......"
Lin Erniang still wept.
In the past ten days, she was frightened every day, and she couldn't describe her mood with four words.
Finally, God is pitiful, her son has returned safely!
While holding his mother, Lin Zhao turned his head to look at Xie Yanran, who was standing aside wiping his tears, and grinned at the latter.
"Sister Xie, long time no see."
Xie Yanran wiped his tears with his sleeve, glared at Lin Zhao viciously, and then lowered his head and said, "It's good that you come back safely, I still have some things at home, so I'll go back first......"
As she spoke, she was about to turn away.
Lin Erniang, who was still crying, hurriedly let go of her son, turned her head and reached out to pull Xie Lanran's sleeve, lowered her head and wiped her tears: "Good boy, thanks to you these days, I really don't know..."
Xie Ran's eyes were red, and his face was a little red.
"Madam, this is all as it should be......"
Lin Erniang pulled Xie Ran and refused to let her go, while looking back at her son, and said: "These days, you have come to bring me food, today Zhao'er finally came back safely, aunt will cook more delicious food in a while, and you will also stay and have a meal together." ”
Xie Yanran's face turned blushing, and he said in a low voice: "Madam, how can this be good......
Lin Erniang's tears had dried up at this time, she held Xie Lanran's hand and refused to let go, and a smile appeared on her face.
"In a few days, I will go to your house to meet your parents......"
Xie Yanran looked flustered, but she no longer struggled, and let Lin Erniang pull her into the Lin family's house, her head lowering even deeper.
Lin Zhao disappeared for so many days, and he didn't dare to speak, so he obediently followed behind the two of them and entered the house together.
