Xu Wei didn't say a word, he was silent, although Lin San's words were fierce, they revealed extraordinary truths. Let go of Asler and Lu Dongzan, he originally thought that it was also a righteous act, smashed the rumors of other countries, verified Dahua's innocence, and did it properly.

But Lin San's words made him wake up and regret it: Why do others think of me Dahua, why do we have to be so concerned? Is face really more important than the rise and fall of the country and the safety of the people?

"Mr. Xu, I am a person with no ambitions," Lin Wanrong sighed slightly, and a sense of powerlessness appeared in her heart: "But I am also a big Chinese, I don't want to see anything that endangers our nation and compatriots, sometimes I think, I would rather my Lin Sanduo be infamous and indecent, I will be scolded shamelessly and obscenely, and I can't let others harm my simple compatriots." But what did we do—"

Xu Wei shook his head in shame: "Brother Dong's words woke up the dreamer." In the matter of Lu Dongzan, the old man was indeed confused and failed to stop the emperor in time. It's too late to say anything now, I don't know what else can be done to remedy it? ”

"How long have Lu Dongzan and Asler been gone?" Lin Wanrong asked.

Xu Wei understood what he meant, and said with a wry smile: "The emperor was from the emperor at dusk yesterday? Meaning, the Turkic sweat and blood BMW travels thousands of miles a day, and now I am afraid that it is already seven or eight hundred miles away, and it is too late for us to do it. ”

Lin Wanrong was helpless, she didn't know what to say, even Xu Wei, who was the first in the world to learn, was confused in this matter, who else could Dahua count on? He suddenly felt a deep sense of tiredness in his heart, and he lost his strength, and he no longer had the appearance of his eyebrows fluttering, and he wanted to go home and sleep for a while. Forget about the annoyance.

He took out the land treaty signed with Xu Changjin from his arms, handed it to Xu Wei, and said lightly: "Mr. Xu, you can hand this over to the emperor." Things about Goryeo. It's kind of an explanation. It is best to start on the same day and enter Goryeo directly, without giving the king of Goryeo a chance to breathe and prepare, and it can also effectively deter the Dongying people. ”

Xu Wei took the treaty and glanced at it roughly, looking excited and ashamed: "Brother Lin, this, is this true?" You are really a man of God! ”

Lin Wanrong nodded. smiled bitterly: "What I can do, that's it." As for whether you can hold Goryeo firmly in your hands, it's up to you. ”

The sound of the sedan chair scattered here had already alarmed the ministers over there. The emperor's tiger eyes swept over, and he said loudly: "Xu Qing, what happened?" ”

"Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor," Xu Wei burst into tears with excitement. Rushed a few steps to present the treaty: "Brother Lin has signed a treaty with Goryeo, Dahua has opened up territory for a hundred years, and my emperor is the first person." Long live our emperor. Hooray, hooray! ”

"Is that true?!" The emperor's face was overjoyed, and without waiting for the eunuch to make a move, he walked straight up a few steps, grabbed the paper in Xu Wei's hand, trembled slightly, and looked at it.

Li Tai asked anxiously: "Brother Xu, do you mean that the negotiation with that Gaoli is over?" ”

"Exactly. Precisely. Xu Wei hurriedly nodded, smiling brightly: "The king of Goryeo has agreed to Brother Lin's proposal, and the two sides have signed a treaty, which has since been incorporated into the Dahua system. The territory of our Dahua will be expanded hundreds of miles to the northeast. This is the great joy of the country and the great joy of the people. ”

Li Tai smiled on his face, as a general who led the army, he had a deeper understanding of the affairs of the country, and this thin piece of paper pushed the Dahua border forward for hundreds of miles, how could it not make people happy.

In the past, when the Golden Palace was debated, all the princes and ministers were present, and when Lin San put forward that proposal, everyone thought it was ridiculous, and they never thought that in just a few days, their dream would come true and Goryeo would be included in the territory of Dahua. The ministers talked a lot, in addition to sighing, they were admiring. Only King Cheng's face was ugly, he snorted coldly, and did not speak.

The emperor looked at the article on the paper, and the joy on his face could no longer be concealed: "Okay, good, today is really a blessing from heaven, the princess returns to the palace, Goryeo comes to the court, and the power of my Dahua spreads all over the world." Spread the decree, tonight a feast of royal flowers, I want to drink with the secretaries to congratulate the country. ”

All the ministers congratulated the emperor one after another, and the sycophants were endless, and the emperor stroked his beard and smiled, in a happy mood: "Lin San, you have done this miracle for my Dahua." Whatever reward you want, I'm up to you! ”

Lin Wanrong shook his head lightly: "This is the same as Gaoli's article, which was originally expected, and it is not a great achievement." What I want to do most at the moment is to go home and get a good night's sleep, and ask the emperor to allow me to retire first. ”

Everyone was stunned, this Lin San had made a great contribution, it was a good time to invite merit and reward, why did he give up by himself? The emperor smiled: "You have to think about it, I am up to you for everything, and if you miss today, there will never be such an opportunity again." ”

Lin Wanrong naturally understood the meaning of the emperor's words, but he was disheartened and bored at this time, and he was not interested in anything, so he shook his head firmly: "Thank you, Emperor." Xiaomin has thought about it, and the emperor who should give it will definitely give it, but if he is unwilling, I can't force it. Please ask the emperor to grant the request of the small people. ”

Xiao Qingxuan knew him very well, and saw that his face revealed a deep exhaustion, as if he had encountered some major setback, and he didn't care about everyone beside him, so he took a few steps, grabbed his hand, and said softly: "Lin Lang, what's wrong with you?" Did you encounter something embarrassing? ”

Not only embarrassed, but simply annoyed, Lin Wanrong smiled bitterly: "Qingxuan, I'll tell you about this later." Today, if you are reunited with your father, let's talk with him. I'll go back and rest first, and I'll pick you up tomorrow. ”

What the hell is going on here? Seeing that her husband was haggard, Miss Xiao's heart was sore and painful, and she had the heart to talk to him, but this is the Golden Palace, not as good as her own home, and many words are unspeakable.

"In that case, then you can go back and rest." The emperor sighed and spoke: "You have done so many things for my Dahua, and I remember them all in my heart. ”

Lin Wanrong arched her hand, and when she saw Xiao Qingxuan's face full of worry, she smiled at her to signal her to rest assured, and turned around and walked out of the palace.

The streets were bustling with pedestrians, shouting and buying, and the sounds were very lively, but he couldn't arouse the slightest interest. was originally in a very good mood, but the moment he heard that the old emperor had released Lu Dongzan, it disappeared. Lu Dongzan is witty and flexible. He is adaptable and is the right-hand man of the Turkic Khan. What it means to Dahua to let him go, Lin Wanrong knows very well in her heart.

I don't know how many Dahua sons will have to pay with their lives for this. He shook his head and sighed deeply, feeling more or less guilty in his heart, he knew that this was the result, and when he set up that game, he should have ordered Du Xiuyuan to do it directly. In the final analysis, his own methods are not ruthless enough, and he has to bear some of this responsibility.

Xinma walked a few steps from the reins, but he remembered the affairs of the Xiao family in his heart. I haven't been back for two days, and the eldest lady is not here, and I don't know what the mess has become at home. He was anxious. The pace quickened, and he hurried towards Xiao's house.

When Fang arrived at the door, he saw a graceful figure flashing in the store. The woman was dressed in red, about sixteen or seventeen years old, with a pretty face, a slightly haggard face, but a stubborn expression. Biting his small mouth, he was moving the goods with everyone, and he was busy spreading. Lin Wanrong was stunned. Immediately overjoyed, he ran two steps and shouted: "Second Miss, Second Miss-"

The woman's delicate body trembled, turned around slowly, glanced at him expressionlessly, her eyes turned red, and she turned her head sharply, ignoring him.

As soon as Lin Wanrong stepped into the store, she felt that the situation was wrong. Not only was the second lady who hadn't seen him for many days indifferent to him and didn't look at him squarely, but even the little maid Huan'er raised her eyebrows coldly and snorted at him. Only the four virtues are still loyal, and they look at him vigorously, it seems that something is wrong!

"Second Miss, aren't you in the academy, why did you come back empty?" Lin Wanrong leaned up and asked with a shy smile. After not seeing her for a few days, Xiao Yushuang seems to have grown a lot taller, her figure is exquisite, and the innocence and liveliness on her face have also decreased a little, and a faint mature charm has emerged.

Seeing that he was close to herself, the second lady hurriedly took a step back, a touch of pink appeared on her face, and she lowered her head and whispered, "What are you doing?" Don't delay me in getting things done. "I'm coming, I'm coming." Seeing that her delicate little hands were about to move the cloth, Lin Wanrong felt distressed for a while, hurriedly snatched the things in her hands, and said softly: "You didn't do this work, you rest first, I'll come, if I break your little hands, won't I be distressed to death." ”

The second lady snorted, and immediately felt that it was inappropriate, and snorted fiercely, her face straightened, and tears floated in her eyes.

"Yushuang, when will you come back?" Lin Wanrong stared at her, her face full of tenderness: "I haven't seen you for a few days, you have lost a lot of weight." ”

"I, I," the second lady's mouth opened suddenly, tears were about to drop, and she suddenly turned her face away: "Don't worry about it, I, I'll go in first." ”

Xiao Yushuang stomped lightly, lifted the curtain and walked quickly to the inner house. Lin Wanrong heard clearly, the second lady said that she went in first, wouldn't that be secretly reminding me to follow up? He stepped forward and was about to follow the second lady's teachings, when he saw the little maid Huan'er blocking in front of him like a gust of wind, and said without a trace of good color: "This big official, I'm sorry, this inner house is the residence of the female dependents of my Xiao Mansion, and men and dogs are not allowed to enter." Please come back. ”

I haven't seen her for two days, and even this little girl is angry. Lin Wanrong smiled dryly, and said shyly: "Yo, isn't this Huan'er?" I haven't seen it for a few days, and I have become more and more watery. I can't see this year, and when you come to our house to ask for relatives, you have to queue up. Third brother, congratulations to you, congratulations. ”

Huan'er snorted, turned around and instructed Side: "Today, the Wudi ruined the girl's interest, and I saw an ungrateful vest man. Side, close the door quickly, and stop doing business today. ”

No, I don't even want to do business when I see me, where do you start? I'm the respected third brother Lin of the Xiao family's mansion. He hurriedly grabbed Huan'er's shirt: "Hey, hey, sister Huan'er, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense, when did I break my promise?" The pretty family Ding Zhong took care of the Xiao family with righteous courage, and the third brother Lin defended Dahua with an iron-blooded heart and a heart, and it was widely recited by the world, but who didn't know which one? Side, you know me best, do you say that's the case? ”

"Third brother," Si De laughed twice, full of embarrassment: "It's not that Xiaodi doesn't help you, it's really Madame who sent a message, if I see you come back again, I will take the thunder and drive you out-"

"Ma'am?" Lin Wanrong was shocked: "I have no enmity with her in the past, and I have been kind recently, how can she do this?" ”

Side came to his side and said cautiously: "Third brother, you better go quickly." When Madame sees you later, I can't be sure what will happen. ”

"Madame poisoned her?" Huan'er snorted heavily: "I see that she is kind enough to you." For such an ungrateful thief like you, you should be beaten to death with a stick, let a dog bite to death, let the fire burn to death, choke to death when eating, in short, you will not die a good death! ”

"No, it won't!" Lin Wanrong gasped. This little girl actually has such a bitter hatred for me, and I didn't take advantage of her: "Sister Huan'er, I, Lin San, have not been in the Xiao family for a day or two, what kind of person I am, everyone knows, there are few people who say that my character is poor, and you are the first to scold me for being ungrateful, abandoning me from the beginning to the end, and being a thief." What did I do wrong to have such a tragic death? ”

Huan'er smiled coldly: "You didn't do anything wrong, it's the two young ladies in our family who are wrong." I didn't recognize your character, and I fell for you, a shameless thief. The two young ladies can't talk about their suffering, but I, Huan'er, am not afraid of you. Even if you do that rich and prosperous horse, what about it? Even if you cut off my head, I will scold you to death, a thief. Side, blast this shameless person out! ”

This little girl sent a lot of strings like a series of cannons, and Lin Wanrong was confused when she heard it: "What a concubine." What kind of chaos is abandoned, what kind of drama is this, Huan'er. You're going to be clear. ”

"Third brother," Side whispered, "You still admit it." The emperor sent someone to take the eldest lady away, and also issued a consecration to the lady, saying that he wanted to recruit you as a concubine, and you were not allowed to marry a folk woman. The decree was still in the hands of the lady, and the lady fell ill in anger, and the second lady hurried back, and when she heard the news, she fainted. ”

Lin Wanrong was furious when she heard this: "Confused." Let me ask you, am I that kind of person? Side, you say, the third brother's character, and the emperor's holy decree, which one do you believe? ”

Side hesitated for a moment, and said cautiously: "It seems that the emperor's decree is a little more credible, third brother, don't be angry, it's just a little bit." ”

I'm wronged! Lin Wanrong was extremely annoyed, the old emperor's mind was so vicious, and I fought desperately for this yesterday. I didn't know that he stabbed him in the back, and when I was "dedicated" to the country, he actually awarded the saint directly to his wife. If I were a lady, I would definitely vomit blood on the spot, not to mention the eldest and second ladies who admired me deeply, this is simply fatal!

"Credible fart!" Seeing that Side looked like a ghost, Lin Wanrong slapped him on the head with a palm: "It's a shame that you've been messing with me for so long, you don't even know what the third brother is." I've always loved the new and never tired of the old, so how could I give up a forest for the sake of a big tree? This is a deliberate discordant plan by the emperor, the purpose of which is to destroy the good situation of stability and unity of my Xiao family, and by the way, to destroy my relationship with my wife and the two young ladies, why can't you see it? ”

Huan'er smiled disdainfully: "What you said sounds good!" Do you dare to say that you haven't done anything sorry for the eldest lady and the second lady? ”

"Oh, this," the little girl pointed her mouth to the relics, and Lin Wanrong was really a little embarrassed. He and Qingxuan were the first to become husband and wife, and then they visited Qiaoqiao, the second miss of the Xiao family was okay to say, but the eldest lady came from behind and seized the opportunity. It stands to reason that he and the eldest lady and the second lady did something sorry for Qingxuan. However, at this critical moment, killing cannot tell the truth.

"Little sister, you are still young, and emotional matters can never be explained clearly in a few words." Lin Wanrong said helplessly: "I am infatuated with the eldest lady and the second miss, but the sun and the moon-"

"Don't say it's useless." Huan'er gritted her teeth and waved her hand: "Let me ask you, do you want to marry a princess?" ”

"Yes! But—"

"There's nothing more than that." Huan'er's little face blushed angrily: "If you are sincere to my young lady, you will go and divorce the princess!" ”

"Divorced princess?" Lin Wanrong almost bit her tongue, this little girl really dared to think about it. But if it weren't for the fact that my princess wives were Qingxuan and Xian'er, it wouldn't be a big deal for me to take ten princesses off for the sake of the eldest lady. Side next to him also shuddered, Princess Ma Xiu, this is the birthday star who always eats arsenic, and he is impatient.

There was a soft cry behind the curtain, and Xiao Yushuang's sad voice came: "You bad person, I hate you, I hate you to death!" ”

"Second Miss-" Lin Wanrong was startled, only to hear the sound of footsteps, and he went straight to the house, and he rushed to the house with an arrow.

"You wolf-hearted person, you have missed my young lady's life-" Huan'er Ping Ping slammed the lintel. was hitting Lin Wanrong's nose, Lin Wanrong screamed and jumped up: "Yushuang, Yushuang." Second Miss, listen to me, it's not what you think, ouch-"

The third brother is so pitiful, Side couldn't bear to look at it for a while, and hurriedly reminded: "Third brother, the back door, the back door is open-"

Good boy, you're really clever, the third brother won't treat you badly. Lin Wanrong jumped up, gave Side a thumbs up in his hurry, and hurriedly rushed to the back door of the compound. He's fast-paced. But someone was more clever, and before he could rush to the back door, he heard a soft noise, the deadbolt was locked, and there seemed to be a person behind the door. There was no sound, and soft sobs were faintly heard.

One step too late, Lin Wanrong sighed helplessly. shouted loudly: "Second Miss, Second Miss, are you here?" It's really not what you think, I'm innocent, cough, cough-"

He pinched his nose and coughed for a while, but he didn't hear the movement inside, and he didn't know if Xiao Yushuang was inside. In or out, it's bad. Lin Wanrong was in a depressed mood, this old emperor is really harmful, the most hateful thing is that he is the father of Qingxuan and Xian'er, and Lao Tzu can't do anything to him, annoyed, extremely annoyed.

"Third brother, third brother, how's it going?" Side came panting.

"Good boy, you are still the most righteous," Lin Wanrong patted him on the shoulder and sighed: "At the critical moment, I will share the weal and woe with the third brother, never give up, and have a future!" ”

Si De laughed twice: "It's not okay if you don't pay attention to righteousness - the door is closed, and I can't get in!" ”

I see! Lin Wanrong put down her big hand and suddenly sighed: "Side, do you know what I came here for today?" ”

How did the third brother become so deep? Although Side was puzzled, he still said with concern: "Third brother, didn't you see the second lady and his wife coming?" ”

Lin Wanrong nodded, her face full of bitterness: "It's true to come to see Mrs. and Second Miss, in fact, there is another matter, I am here to say goodbye to you." ”

"Third brother, are you really going to be a colt?" Side's voice trembled and said, seeing that the third brother was desperately squeezing his eyes at him, he was puzzled: "Third brother, what's wrong with your eyes?" ”

"It's nothing, it's just that you're so angry that I'm crying." Lin Wanrong gritted his teeth, eager to punch this kid: "I'm here to say goodbye to you, not because I want to be a colt, but because-" His voice stopped slightly, and he sighed deeply: "In the future, you may never see me again!" ”

There was an imperceptible sound behind the door, as if someone was sticking to the back of the door to listen, Lin Wanrong was overjoyed, there was a door!

"Third brother, where are you going?" Side was also taken aback, and suddenly seemed to understand something, holding his hand tightly, his eyes moistened: "Third brother, don't go, Dahuadi medicine is so prosperous, any terminal illness can be cured, you must be strong!" Hold on'

Lao Tzu is going to have a terminal illness, and he is also angry with you, this kid, this kid faintly has the taste of inheriting my mantle. Lin Wanrong gritted her teeth and said, "Actually, it's like this. On the northern front, the Hu people invaded, and their actions were barbaric, their sex was cruel, burning, killing and looting, and they did all kinds of evil. The emperor has issued a conscription order, and all the strong men who have reached the age of 16 in Dahua should actively enlist in the army and bravely kill the enemy. Defending the family and defending the country, it is the responsibility of the husband, as a Zheng Zheng man, I dare not slack off, some time ago I have asked the Dahua general Li Tai to fight and join his army. In the near future, he will go to the front line and fight a bloody battle with the Hu people. Brother-" He pretended to wipe two tears: "I will die on the battlefield in the coming day, if you are free, don't forget to burn two pots of paper money at my grave-"

"Third brother, do you mean really?" Side was dumbfounded, even the third brother can go to the battlefield, so the Hu people are too unbeaten!

"That's it, today is our last. Take care, brother! Farewell! As soon as Lord Lin turned around, he was heroic and sassy, and was about to take a step, when he suddenly heard a soft noise, the back door opened, and Xiao Yushuang's delicate figure appeared in front of him.

"Second Miss, you-" Lin Wanrong was surprised and delighted!

"Lin San, you bad guy!" Xiao Yushuang's face was covered with tears, beautiful as the rain and dew in the morning, and the dagger in her hand was dazzling and eye-catching, and with a snort, she pounced directly on him.
