Chapter 19: I can't afford to hide
"That's good, that's good." Prime Minister Lin Cheng breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, Jun Wuchen followed him back to the Prime Minister's Mansion in the next court, saying that who wanted to find Lin Muzi had something to do, because he didn't want the two to have too much contact because of the letter of the senior monk when Lin Muzi was born, but as a courtier, it was difficult to refuse the request of the prince of a country, so it was delayed until now that people woke up Lin Muzi. Fortunately, in the end, Jun Wuchen failed to make an appointment with Lin Muzi, "Then whether the prince wants to eat at the old minister's house, I will order my subordinates to prepare." ”
"I happen to have some political issues and want to ask the prime minister, so I'll bother." Jun Wuchen, a person who has lived for two lifetimes, naturally knows the meaning of Prime Minister Lin Cheng's words, and also feels the rejection of Prime Minister Lin Cheng and Lin Chu for his contact with Lin Muzi, he doesn't know the reason, but he knows that if he wants to marry Lin Muzi in this life, he must be Lin Muzi himself nodding.
Prime Minister Lin didn't expect Jun Wuchen to answer like this, so he was stunned for a moment, and then immediately reacted, "Don't bother, don't bother, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is diligent and loves the people, which is the blessing of the subjects of the world." Then please wait for a while, and the old minister asked the little girl to be sent back to the room first. ”
"Well, the time is still a while before eating, and Miss Lin can also sleep for a while." Jun Wuchen looked at Lin Muzi on Prime Minister Lin's lap, and said in a ghostly manner, "I guess Miss Lin doesn't want to walk now." Does Prime Minister Lin need me to take Miss Lin back? ”
Prime Minister Lin Cheng was shocked by Jun Wuchen's words, and hurriedly refused, "Don't dare to bother His Royal Highness the Prince, it's good to let Chu'er come to this kind of thing." Saying that, Prime Minister Lin turned his head and instructed Lin Chu, "Carry Muzi back to the room, and then you stay there and take a look, don't let Muzi have nightmares again, I will have someone come over and call you when we have dinner." ”
"Okay" eleven-year-old Lin Chu has already started practicing martial arts, and it is not a problem to pick up Lin Muzi at all, he reached out and gently hugged Lin Muzi in his arms, and asked Qing'er to help adjust Lin Muzi's posture, for fear that there would be something uncomfortable about Lin Muzi who was asleep.
Jun Wuchen looked at Lin Chu's cautious movements, his eyes darkened, this should have been something he should have done, but because of the foolish things he had done, he had no position and no qualifications to do it now. Thinking of this, Jun Wuchen's mood suddenly became bad, and his whole popularity was lowered, and Prime Minister Lin Cheng, who was next to Jun Wuchen, naturally felt the change in his mood, and he only regarded it as the shame of the young man not being able to make an appointment, and he didn't care much. As everyone knows, Jun Wuchen's heart has already made up his mind to marry Lin Muzi, and it is the kind of idea that will not give up.
Lin Muzi, who was held by Lin Chu, was actually awake all the time, and the moment she entered the living room, she saw Jun Wuchen, of course she hated Jun Wuchen, but she also knew that at present, she didn't have the capital to oppose Jun Wuchen at all, so she retreated and chose to hide, Lin Muzi heard all the conversations just now, but she really guessed that she didn't know what Jun Wuchen meant, she only knew that she had to stay away from Jun Wuchen, so as to ensure that she and the people around her could live well. But judging from the current situation, her "meeting" with Jun Wuchen is inevitable, so what she can do now is to come out to Jun Wuchen to find her what she wants, and then Jun Wuchen will open her mouth and seize the opportunity. Thinking about it, she said to Lin Chu who was holding her, "Brother, put me down!" I was going out for a trip and had something urgent, and I suddenly remembered that I had an appointment with Brother Baili today. ”
Lin Chu was also a little puzzled when he heard Lin Muzi's voice, and thought that his movements were too big, which made Lin Muzi uncomfortable, so he woke up, and then he thought back carefully and found that his sister didn't sleep at all, "I said Lin Muzi, you didn't sleep at all, what are you pretending?" ”
"Didn't I see that you and my father didn't want me to have too much contact with His Royal Highness the Prince, so I pretended to be asleep and avoided it!" Lin Muzi stuck out his tongue at Lin Chu, showing the childlike innocence of only five years old, "Don't you just let you hug you for a while, hug your sister and return this attitude, see how you marry a good girl in the future." ”
"The girl's family, why are you so shameless." Lin Chu didn't expect Lin Muzi to suddenly say such a thing, and his face blushed for a long time before he held back a sentence: "Who taught you this, really, see if I don't tear her mouth." ”
Lin Muzi looked at Lin Chu's blushing face, and knew that the joke couldn't go on, otherwise his eldest brother would really lose his temper, "Okay, okay, I won't say it." Lin Muzi said as he took Qing'er's hand, "Then my sister won't bother my brother here, I'm going out, big brother, you remember to talk to your father, just say that you haven't come yet, tell me that there is a guest visiting, and I will run away with Qing'er." Lin Muzi said and trotted away without waiting for Lin Chu to agree, leaving Lin Chu alone with a black face.
Du Fu.
"Boss, there's a Miss Lin outside who said she wants to see you." A subordinate walked into the room and reported to Bai Lijin, who was reading the account book.
Bai Lijin didn't even raise his eyes, "What Miss Lin, I don't know it." ”
The servant took the order, and as he walked out of the door, he whispered, "I'll just say that the master won't know such a young child, and the master and servant have to let me come in to report it." ”
"Wait, what did you just say?" Bai Lijin heard the words of the next person at the tip of his ear. Hurriedly stopped, "You mean that a Miss Lin came to me, and then she was still a child?" ”
"Yes." The servant came back again, "The young lady said that as long as it is Miss Lin, you will know who it is." Before he finished speaking, he felt a gust of wind blowing beside him, and when he raised his head again, he only saw an account book still on the bookcase, and as for his master, he didn't even see a shadow. So this person came to a conclusion: The person who can make his master not even read the account book, this Miss Lin must be very promising, and she must not be provoked.
Besides, Bai Lijin's side, since Lin Muzi returned to the house with a bad face yesterday, he has been worried, and he wants to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to see Lin Muzi, but there is no proper reason to go over. In the morning, after hearing that Jun Wuchen followed Prime Minister Lin to the Prime Minister's Mansion, he was even more anxious, he kept remembering Jun Wuchen's eyes when he looked at Lin Muzi on the night of the Lantern Festival, it was a kind of man's eyes looking at women, with a strong possessiveness and inevitable ambition, for no reason, he just wanted to protect Lin Muzi by his side, and didn't want Jun Wuchen to mess with Lin Muzi. When he finally calmed down and decided to look at the account book, the next person came to report that Lin Muzi had arrived outside the door, and at this time, Bai Lijin couldn't tell what he was feeling, he just wanted to see Lin Muzi soon, and wanted to know if Lin Muzi was better now.
"Kid, why did you come here on your own? Tired or not? Bai Lijin saw Lin Muzi standing at the door from a distance, so he walked to Lin Muzi in three steps and two steps, and before Lin Muzi could speak, he crackled and began to speak, "Next time, just find me and let someone know, I can go to you or pick you up, I am a little worried about you going out alone." Saying that, Bai Lijin took Lin Muzi's hand and led the person in the direction of the study, "Why are your hands so cold?" Why do you only wear such a little bit when you go out in this weather! After speaking, Bai Lijin felt that Lin Muzi was so easy to get cold, so he hurriedly turned his head and instructed the people on the side, "You guys hurry up and go to the study, light the stove or something, make sure to make it warmer, and then go and find a child's cloak, to be of the highest quality, the material must be comfortable, the color should not be too heavy, it must be light, and it is suitable for children to wear." ”
Lin Muzi looked at Baili Jin and couldn't help laughing after speaking, "Brother Baili, I just don't want to see Jun Wuchen at home, so I came to look for you by myself, I came slowly, I'm not tired, I took Qing'er with me, I didn't go out alone, my hands were cold because of the cold, this problem hit me out of my mother's womb, and I was already wearing a very thick clothes, so I was not so susceptible to cold." After Lin Muzi patiently answered all of Bailijin's questions, he still couldn't help but speak, "Brother Baili, are you usually like this?" ”
Before Bai Lijin could answer, someone on the side rushed to say, "No, the master is usually very silent, and sometimes he doesn't have to say so much for several days, it seems that the master is really different to Miss Lin." ”
"Dubo, can't you work hard, you're everywhere!" Bai Lijin opened her mouth and interrupted what Du Bo wanted to say, "You hurry up and go down to work, remember to tell the people in the mansion, Miss Lin will be the second master of this Du Mansion in the future, if she comes over or needs you to do anything, you all have snacks, don't be frizzy." ”
Du Bo's little eyes swirled back and forth between Bai Lijin and Lin Muzi, as if he could see something from inside.
"Don't look at it, you won't be able to see anything if you look at it again." Bai Lijin blocked Du Bo's sight: "What have you been thinking about all day?" Your master, I am only ten years old this year, and Miss Lin is only five years old, put away those thoughts in your heart. ”
Du Bo smiled, "Isn't it looking at Miss Lin very exquisite, thinking that it would be nice if it was the female master of my Du Mansion." The old slave has been in the Du Mansion for so long, and before the master died, he told me that I must worry about your marriage, although you are only ten years old, master, do you look like a ten-year-old child for yourself? Usually with a cold face, I was still worried that you would not find a girl you liked in the future, but today I saw you so enthusiastic about Miss Lin, so I thought of that. ”
"Uncle Du, my name is Lin Muzi, you can call me Muzi in the future!" Lin Muzi came out from behind Baili Jin, looked at the old man in front of him who was smiling and his beard was upturned up, and smiled, "I'm not the mistress of Brother Baili's mansion, I'm the younger sister that Brother Baili picked up outside." ”
Du Bo, a person who helps Baili Jin take care of business, is naturally like a human spirit, and he immediately heard the meaning of Lin Muzi's words, and guessed Lin Muzi's identity from Lin Muzi's name, and secretly sighed in his heart This is also a ghost and a ghost child, and it is not much worse than his master, no wonder he can make the master treat him differently, "The old slave is the house slave of Du Mansion, and it is beyond the norm to call the master's name, and the old slave will be called Miss directly in the future." ”
