Xiao Zhengzi opened the door and looked out, and when he saw that there was no one outside, he turned back and said mysteriously:

"I have heard of this Ye Bu, at the beginning, he seemed to be just a craftsman who built a house, after the founding of Daegu, someone knew that he was particularly good at designing houses, so he asked someone to find him, and later because his design was reasonable and stable, he could make the buildings on the ground beautiful and practical at the same time, but also take into account the design of the underground secret passage, so he got the reuse of the above, and this step by step to the current position. By the way, I heard that he is one of the most important designers in the palace of Daegu, and this person has been in office since the founding of Daegu, and he has always been clean and self-conscious, not following the trend, nor blindly obeying, it can be said that he is as good as a stream, and he is wise to protect himself. And he will accept you as his goddaughter, there must be his reason, let's be calm and listen to what he has to say. ”

Xiao Zhengzi's theory made Lin Ling'er's heart sink, she couldn't help but think of Nangong Jue, his feelings were so strong, but this time she left the Prime Minister's Mansion, he didn't even appear, with his personality, shouldn't he come forward to obstruct it?

And also......

She suddenly grabbed Xiao Zhengzi's hand:

"By the way, Nangong definitely wants to harm my child, I heard what the imperial doctor said, he must ask the imperial doctor to give me fetal medicine......"

Speaking of this, the tension on her face was already overflowing,

"Just came out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, he didn't stop him, you say, could he want to send me to Ye Shangshu first, and then borrow Ye Shangshu's hand to get rid of my child, in this case, this matter has nothing to do with him?"

Hearing her say this, Xiao Zhengzi's two shallow eyebrows also wrinkled:

"Probably not...... But it's strange to say, why is Nangong Jue so well-behaved this time, if you want me to say, there is only one possibility! ”

"What?"

"Before, your identity was just a maid, at best, you were a first-class palace maid, and there was no one behind you to be a backer, a person like you who has no identity and no status, if Nangong absolutely wants to marry you, how can Nangong Qingfeng agree? Don't forget, Nangong Qingfeng is going to be the lord of the country, with his love for Nangong Jue, the future prince of Daegu is likely to be Nangong Jue, and the person Nangong Jue marries will be the princess, the princess is not just anyone can be the princess, if you are a little maid, it is absolutely absolutely impossible, but if you are the goddaughter of the Ministry of Works, the situation is very different. ”

"So, you mean that the reason why Nangong Jue agreed to let me leave the mansion is to marry me in the future?"

Seeing that Lin Ling'er's face was very bad, Xiao Zhengzi hurriedly laughed and laughed, not wanting her to be too sad.

"Oh, this is just my guess, but looking at Ye Shangshu's appearance, it feels quite reassuring, and it shouldn't hurt you."

"Really? You also think he's quite reassuring? ”

"Uh-huh."

Xiao Zhengzi nodded frequently, and now he will do anything that can make Lin Ling'er happy, relieved, and relieved.

If she can forget Tuoba Jiuxiao's death, and even forget him as a person, and be as happy as before, he will not hesitate.

She silently stroked her lower abdomen, turned her face to look out the window, and said very calmly:

"As long as I can keep this child, I can do anything."

Xiao Zhengzi looked at her, she had just recovered from a serious illness, her cheeks were pale and tight, there was no ruddy color, her eyes had been looking in one direction, and she was no longer as lively and naughty as before, and the bell he knew before seemed to be gone.

He secretly swore in his heart that he would definitely help her keep this child, definitely.

"Mademoiselle, Madame has come to see you."

At this time, the voice of a maid came from outside the door.

Lin Ling'er and Xiao Zhengzi glanced at each other, and then asked Xiao Zhengzi to open the door.

The door opened, and a woman of the same age as Ye Shangshu walked in, and Lin Ling'er hurriedly got up to greet her.

"You are ......"

Lin Ling'er asked hesitantly.

The woman wears a light blue Luo skirt, plain color, looks very clean, but also calm, fair skin, thin eyebrows and fine eyes, very delicate, her face has a faint smile, approachable.

"I am Ye Shangshu's original wife, just call me Mrs. Ye."

Mrs. Ye's voice is also thin and peaceful, such a quiet woman is really compatible with Ye Shangshu.

Lin Ling'er was busy with her blessed body:

"Hello Mrs. Ye."

Mrs. Ye personally helped her up and said with a smile:

"Get up quickly, I heard the master say, you are now a person with a body, not as usual, in the future, this matter of etiquette will be exempted, we are not outsiders, there is no need to be formal."

Lin Ling'er was startled, and hurriedly glanced at Xiao Zhengzi, as if she wanted to find some advice from him, Xiao Zhengzi nodded to her, as if she thought, this Ye family really didn't seem to want to harm her.

"It's not...... Outsiders? ”

"Yes, the master told me that I want to recognize you as my goddaughter, this will be your home in the future, of course we are not outsiders."

"Ye Shangshu really wants to recognize me as his goddaughter?"

When she heard that Ye Shangshu wanted to recognize her as her goddaughter when she was in the Prime Minister's Mansion, she still felt that it was not very real, but now Mrs. Ye's words that were so affirmative made her have to face up to this matter, coupled with Xiao Zhengzi's analysis just now, she had mixed feelings in her heart.

Mrs. Ye always smiled, she raised her hand to bring the hair on her cheeks behind her ears, and helped her wrap the cloak on her body, and said with great concern:

"You are weak now, take care of yourself. Once, I also had a daughter, if she was still alive now, she would be about the same age as you, but unfortunately fate made people, she had a serious illness a few years ago, and died not long after......"

As she spoke, Mrs. Ye's eyes turned red,

"So, when I heard the master say that he brought me a daughter, I was really happy, and from now on, I will treat you like her, and I will not let you suffer a little grievance."

Speaking of this, she looked at Lin Ling'er's lower abdomen again, her eyes were full of love,

"And the child in your belly, I will also treat him well, let him grow up peacefully, and one day ......"

Her words were taken away suddenly, and she didn't say any more, but just looked at Lin Ling'er deeply, and there seemed to be endless family affection in her eyes.

Although her words are very warm, but now is different from the past, Lin Ling'er does not dare to believe that any person, a courtier of Daegu, will really treat the widow of King Wani Hades well?

She is not good at scheming, since she is suspicious, it is better to ask directly if there is anything:

"Mrs. Ye, thank you for your kindness, but forgive me for being a straight gut, I still don't quite understand why Ye Shangshu wants to recognize me as his goddaughter, it seems a little unreasonable."

Mrs. Ye smiled knowingly, turned around and took a set of clothes from the maid's hand, and Xiao Zhengzi hurriedly took it.

She said:

"This is my dress, the color may be a little plain, not suitable for a woman of your age, but fortunately we are about the same size, so let's wear it first, and I will ask the butler to find a tailor to tailor it for you later." As for your questions, let's wait for the master to answer them. ”

"Madame......"

She didn't know what to say, Mrs. Ye gave people a faint feeling, but she was close, which made it difficult for people to refuse, and it was not easy to ask, so she could only respond.

Mrs. Ye patted her lightly on the shoulder and said:

"Let's change your clothes first, don't catch a cold, the old man will send someone to call you to the study to talk, don't be impatient."

After Mrs. Ye left, she was still uneasy in her heart, there were too many questions that needed someone to help her solve, and this person seemed to be only Ye Shangshu.

"Ling'er, let's change your clothes first, don't think too much, it is estimated that Ye Shangshu will send someone to find you in a while, we will be safe when we come, this Ye Mansion is much better than the Prime Minister's Mansion, right? At least you don't have to beware of Nangong Jue coming to bully you every day. ”

Lin Ling'er looked at the set of clothes, and her heart moved, Xiao Zhengzi was right, if she was still in the Prime Minister's Mansion now, God knows what Nangong would do to her.

She took the dress and said:

"Then you go out first, I'll call you after I get dressed."

Xiao Zhengzi scratched his head, pursed his mouth and said:

"You're weak now, I can change it for you."

Lin Ling'er immediately stared at him:

"You're a man!"

"I'm a eunuch!"

Xiao Zhengzi shouted back unconvinced,

"Besides, I used to serve the heroine in the palace every day, what's the big deal about changing clothes?"

Although Xiao Zhengzi is a eunuch, Lin Ling'er has never discriminated against him, and sometimes even forgets that he is a eunuch.

"Even if you are a eunuch, in my heart, you have always been a man."

Lin Ling'er didn't notice that when she said this, Xiao Zhengzi's eyes were a little red, and there was indescribable excitement and sadness in her eyes.

"So, get out!"

Xiao Zhengzi lowered his head, didn't say anything, turned around and walked out directly, and slammed the door shut.

If it weren't for the fact that she was sad and helpless now, he should really reason with her.

But...... How nice it would be if he wasn't a eunuch and was really a man!

Leaning against the door and waiting for Lin Ling'er to change her clothes, Luo Wu was really sent by Ye Shangshu to find her.

Lin Ling'er took Xiao Zhengzi to follow behind Luo Wu, shuttled through the Ye Mansion, and finally arrived at Ye Shangshu's study.

The name of this study is "Mo Yuanju", Lin Ling'er looked at the three vigorous and powerful ink-colored characters, as if she saw Ye Shangshu's deep eyes.

"Miss, please."

Luo Wu let her into the study, and Xiao Zhengzi also wanted to follow up, but he stopped her at the door.

Lin Ling'er nodded at him, signaled that she could do it herself, and walked in alone.

The furnishings in the study are simple and elegant, and the air is filled with the fragrance of ink, as if people are in a sea of books.

There are many books on the shelves, all of which are books on civil engineering, water conservancy, tuntian, etc., and the Ministry of Industry Shangshu really deserves its name.

Seeing her come in, Ye Bu quickly put down the drawings in his hand, walked out from behind the bookcase with a smile, and stood two meters away from her.

"Miss Ling'er, old man...... You should be thanked. ”

Thank? Lin Ling'er was a little stunned, where did this thank you come from?
