Chapter Twenty-Five: The Gate

After nothing to say all the way to the evening, the two arrived in Yongzhou, and Mao Xuqi and Chen were already sitting in the main hall and waiting.

When Mao Lingyun and Lin Shuyin walked hand in hand and came to the main hall. When Mao Lingyun saw the haggard appearance of his parents, as well as his father who had lost his right arm, he couldn't help but burst into tears, and fell to his knees with a plop, "The unfilial son is back." "Father, please. Lin Shuyin also hurriedly knelt beside him.

When Chen Shi saw it, he hurriedly hugged Mao Lingyun: "Yun'er, you finally came back safely, you were there during this time, why didn't you send a message back, do you know how worried we are about you?" After saying that, I couldn't help but shed tears.

Mao Xuqi couldn't help but interrupt Chen's words at a glance: "Madam, Yun'er, haven't you come back safely?" Why are you crying, there's a girl here! ”

When Chen heard this, he hurriedly wiped away his tears, right... It's a good day for Yun'er to come back safely today, I shouldn't cry, I should laugh. After speaking, he turned around and helped Lin Shuyin up and said, "Who is this girl?" ”

Mao Lingyun briefly talked about being rescued. Chen took Lin Shuyin's hand, looked up and down, and saw that she was thin with fat powder, clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, delicate facial features, gentle and delicate, and generous, although she was an ordinary person, she was not vulgar, and she had a faint fragrance of herbs.

Lin Shuyin also took the opportunity to secretly look at the last mother-in-law, only to see that she was graceful and luxurious, dignified and elegant, although there were a few strands of silver on her head and her face was haggard, she could still see that she was gorgeous when she was young, a famous lady, and a beauty. That kind of bearing is not something that ordinary people can have. I couldn't help but feel embarrassed, and my heart was beating, can such a person really look at himself? Are you worthy of other people's nobles? All of a sudden, I was full of thoughts, my heart was nervous, and I grabbed my sleeves tightly, and a thin sweat oozed from my head.

Seeing the sweat dripping down her head and her hands wet, Chen knew that she was nervous, smiled slightly, pulled her and said, "Miss Lin, your name is Shu Yin, right?" , then I'll call you Shuyin, okay? ”

"Well... Madame, thank you, Madame. Lin Shuyin stammered.

Chen patted her hand gently, silly child, don't be nervous, call me aunt, call Mrs. Outside. Sit and relax with a cup of tea.

"Yes, ma'am, ah no, Aunt Xie." Lin Shuyin sat down nervously.

Mao Lingyun sat next to her, reached out and gently grabbed her right hand, and said softly: "Shu Yin, don't be nervous, we don't pay so much attention to the rules of the door, and we don't force the door to be right, as long as we love each other." ”

Chen also nodded and said: "Yun'er, that's right, I was also an unappreciated concubine back then, married to the prince of the Guogong Mansion, why can't you!" Rest assured! As long as you like it, we will not object.

Mao Xuqi bowed, "That's exactly why, as long as you like it, in a few days, you will ask someone to go to the next office." ”

Mao Lingyun was overjoyed and pulled Lin Shuyin to kneel: "Thank you daddy, thank you mother." ”

Lin Shuyin blushed, lowered his head and said softly, "Thank you, uncle, aunt." ”

Chen smiled lightly and motioned for the two to sit down for dinner, and the atmosphere gradually dissolved when the four of them sat together. Lin Shuyin was not as nervous as just now.

When Chen heard that Mao Lingfeng was ambushed and seriously injured, he couldn't help but cry again, Lin Shuyin persuaded him softly, saying that in two days, Mao Lingfeng would also return to Yongzhou to live for a period of time. was relieved, and happily pulled Lin Shuyin back to the inner hall.

Mao Xuqi and Mao Lingyun saw the two leaving, and Mao Xuqi carefully asked about the situation after the separation. Mao Lingyun said it in detail, and at the end it was said that Mao Lingfeng was ambushed, and his life hung by a thread, it was Chang Wu who found Mao Lingfeng's white horse roaring in front of Yangguan during his inspection, and felt that something was wrong, so he led a team of people to hurry to save his sister when he was a thousand equals. Mao Lingyun said it as it was.

Mao Xuqi was silent, knowing that her daughter didn't want to worry about herself, so she didn't send anyone to report to him. The daughter has her own ideas. Let her go! And after these battles, her daughter's military ability is far beyond her own ability.

Two days later, Mao Lingfeng returned to Yongzhou with Zhishu and Zhihua, and Chen hurriedly took out fresh lychees and handed them to her.

Mao Lingfeng's eyes lit up, he hadn't eaten lychee for five years, this was a local specialty fruit, and he didn't eat it in the capital. Grab it and stuff it in your mouth.

Chen couldn't help but feel sad when he saw his daughter's gluttony, gently touched his daughter's right hand wrapped in gauze, took the lychee and gently peeled off the skin, revealing the crystal clear flesh and sending it into his daughter's small mouth.

Mao Lingfeng leaned on her mother's arms, eating the lychees peeled by her mother, looking satisfied. It seems to go back to the time when I was a child, and such a scene has been going on for ten years, and it has not appeared since I went up the mountain with my master when I was eight years old.

When Lin Shuyin came in and saw such a scene, a trace of envy flashed in his heart, once upon a time, he was also imagining the scene, but after his mother died when he was five years old, such a scene no longer existed. After another three years, my father died of illness because he missed his mother. The brother and sister relied on each other and were embarrassed, and this situation lasted until the elder brother became an adult, and the two brothers and sisters barely settled down by opening a small clinic with their ancestral medical skills.

Chen looked up and saw Lin Shuyin staying at the door, and hurriedly beckoned, "Shuyin, come in and use some lychees."

Lin Shuyin said with the medicine basin in her hand: "Thank you, aunt, let me change the medicine for the general first." ”

Chen smiled slightly, "It's still called a general, it should be called a sister-in-law or a little sister." Lin Shuyin blushed.

Mao Lingfeng got up and saluted, "I've seen my sister-in-law, and I have a sister-in-law." ”

Lin Shuyin's face turned red, and she hurriedly returned the salute, "Don't dare." Seen the general. ”

Mao Lingfeng raised her eyebrows: "Why don't you still refuse to admit that I am a little sister, wait a minute, I will call my eldest brother good-looking." ”

Lin Shuyin hurriedly said: "It's none of your eldest brother's business." ”

The young woman smiled and said, "Oh, it's not about big brother, that is, you still don't agree."

"No, how could I not say yes!" Lin Shuyin hurriedly argued.

"Then what would be called a general." Mao Lingfeng pressed forward step by step.

"General, no, little sister, just spare me!" Lin Shuyin pleaded in a low voice.

Chen looked at Lin Shuyin's face and ears red when he was teased by his daughter. He laughed out loud, poked his finger at his daughter's head and said, "You, you're still like a child, you look at your sister-in-law and can't wait to go underground." Don't hurry up and apologize.

Mao Lingfeng stopped doing it, and shouted: "Mother is so partial, sister-in-law is still the last to pass the door, so she is open, I am your biological daughter, I won't do it." After speaking, he pouted and pretended to be angry.

Chen laughed: "You have a sharp mouth, you actually arranged your mother, go and accompany your sister-in-law." Mao Lingfeng's stalk neck, "No." ”

Chen gently touched her waist a few times. The young woman stomped on her chair and laughed, snot and tears came out, "Sister-in-law... Sister-in-law... Right... Rise. ”

What is the situation, Lin Shuyin was stunned. The dignified general actually made such an embarrassment for the powerless Chen family. It's not enough to laugh at people when this gets out.

After a while, Mao Lingfeng's laughter gradually stopped, Chen helped her wipe her face, and said with a smile: I asked you to bully my sister-in-law, and I will see if you dare in the future. ”

Mao Lingfeng nodded hurriedly, "Well, I don't dare, if I want to bully in the future, I have to pick a mother's absence, but I can bully it." The crowd covered their mouths and snickered.

Lin Shuyin and Zhishu Zhihua helped her untie her dress, Chen looked at her body wrapped in gauze, and couldn't help crying, Mao Lingfeng wiped away Chen's tears and said: "My mother is fine, it's all skin trauma, and it will be fine in a few days." "After bathing and changing the dress, I put on my dress, and the next person came to report to Miss Madame and Miss Lin to go to the main hall together.

Mao Lingfeng and Lin Shuyin followed Chen to the hall left and right, and Mao Xuqi and Mao Lingyun and a strange man sat there. When he saw them coming, he motioned for them to sit down.

Lin Shuyin was pleasantly surprised when he saw the strange man: "Brother, why are you here." The strange man hurriedly saluted Chen and Mao Lingfeng.

"The sister is ignorant and has caused trouble for the general. In Xialin, Shuchun accompanied him first. After speaking, he gave a deep salute to Chen and Mao Lingfeng. Mao Lingfeng owed a bow out of politeness.

When Lin Shuchun looked up and saw the young woman's stunning appearance, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Mao Lingfeng's eyes sank like knives, and his face snorted coldly, and Lin Shuchun was shocked. Hurriedly turned around. After the two parties met the ceremony, the wedding date was quickly finalized, and the appointment was made three days later, and Lin Shuchun said goodbye and went home the next morning.

On the third day, the General's Mansion dispatched six carriages full of dowry gifts, and the matchmaker took Geng Ti to the next appointment.

Lin Shuchun accepted the dowry and replied to the letter of appointment. It's a courtesy. So both parties are preparing for marriage.

But it was said that Dark San and Zhiqin were disguised as middle-aged couples, with Mao Lingfeng's secret letter, and they hurried back to the capital.

Sima Shun took the letter written by Mao Lingfeng, which mentioned the letters of Chang Wu and Prince Tai and a letter written by Chang Wu himself, and attached a confession.

Sima Shun took a closer look: "Seeing that she didn't have a word of warmth except for asking him for help in official affairs, she didn't thank him for giving him the sword, and she had already accepted the dark three and dark four, thank you to the prince for sending her two people, so that she would not be unavailable." The words were burning, but there was no trace of affection. Sima Shun shook his head after looking at it, is this girl pretending not to know her own mind, or is she really not half affectionate to herself. I couldn't help but feel sad and depressed, and I wanted to get close to her, but I was concerned about the safety of the court, and I couldn't get out. Only the darkness is worried. I hope that girl doesn't fancy anyone again, otherwise, she won't have a chance at all. Sitting in the study, I read the letter several times, found a box, and carefully put it away and hid it in the secret compartment. After reading the confession and the secret letter written by Prince Tai to Chang Wu, he was furious, and when he saw that the confession said that Prince Tai spent 200,000 taels of gold to ask people in the rivers and lakes to assassinate Mao Lingfeng, he gritted his teeth angrily.

The next morning, as soon as Emperor Sima Yan of the Jin Yuan Dynasty went to the palace, he saw Sima Shun standing next to him early, and he couldn't help but be stunned. said: "Brother Wang, what is the important thing to play. ”

Sima Shun knelt on the ground and said: "The minister sees the emperor, and the minister has a secret letter, respectfully asking the emperor to read it." After speaking, he stood up, came to the imperial case, and handed over a secret report.

Sima Xing was puzzled, took the secret report, opened it and looked at it, he was furious, and patted the dragon case, "Pass the guard Zhonglang will go to the court." ”

At this time, a guard stepped forward and announced: "Your Majesty, there are two generals outside who ask to see you, claiming to be ordered by General Feifeng to return to the court." ”

"Announce quickly." Sima Xing said hurriedly.

Leaning slightly, I saw His Royal Highness walking up to two people, both of them were covered in injuries and bloodstains, and all the ministers of civil and military affairs were shocked when they saw it. You must know that it is a felony to lose honor in front of the temple.

Zhiqin walked up to the Golden Hall with the help of the dark three, and the two knelt on the ground, "The dark three will not be the same, and the last will be Zhiqin, see the emperor, long live long live long live." ”
