Chapter 70: I Didn't Plan to Be Lord

Princess Antai's heart was like a galloping horse, angry and annoyed. She is not a patient person, and she wants to jump out and make it clear to Princess Huatai right now - if you like Xue Rin, you can like it, why drag yourself into the water?

No matter what Empress Xue's plans are, her own marriage is up to her father. Princess Antai knew this very well, so when Queen Xue repeatedly mentioned Xue Rin in front of her and praised Xue Rin, Antai was not in a hurry.

She also had to admit that among the younger generation of children in the capital, Xue Rin was one of the best.

It's just that no matter how good a person is, she just doesn't like it.

Originally, under the promotion of Queen Xue, intentionally or unintentionally, many people in and outside the palace decided that Xue Rin would still be the master, and the fifth princess was still the most favored.

This made Princess Antai very displeased, but I didn't expect even Princess Huatai to say this behind her back!

After taking two steps, he suddenly heard Xue Rin's cold voice ringing out.

"Your Highness is self-respecting."

It was still these four cold words, and Princess Antai miraculously heard the difference from the previous two times.

The first two times, it was Princess Huatai who openly stopped him in the imperial garden to confess his thoughts. Xue Rin is a shrewd person, and he can't fail to see Huatai's intention in doing thisβ€”in the imperial garden, people come and go, and the young princess and the young guard commander stand together, which will always make people think about it. Once it is rumored out, even if it is for the reputation of Princess Huatai, the emperor will decree that the two will be married.

It was precisely because he saw through this that Xue Rin's attitude was so indifferent, even with some contempt.

His Royal Highness respected himself twice, so he said that he rejected Princess Huatai, but it was better to say that he was sneering at her clearly.

This third ...... Princess Antai actually heard the same annoyance as her. It seems that as the most outstanding son of the Xue family, Xue Rin himself is not very happy to be the master, right?

It's understandable when you think about it. Xue Rin is arrogant and thinks very highly of himself, how can he be willing to be a colt who can't enter the official career and only has the title of a captain?

Even if it is for the future of the family, Xue Rin will inevitably not be angry. This third time His Royal Highness's self-respect, not only did his voice rise, but in a pair of slightly deep eagle eyes, there was no disguised mockery.

"His Royal Highness Huatai is clever, if you use this heart on Your Majesty, you will not be so thin in your holy grace."

Princess Antai retracted her foot when she stepped out, and secretly gave Xue Rin a thumbs up in her heart.

I can't see it, I usually look like a gentleman, and my poisonous tongue is really unbearable.

At least, Princess Huatai couldn't stand it.

After being stunned for a moment, he understood the meaning of Xue Rin's words, a peach blossom face swelled red and purple, endured it a few times, and finally didn't hold back, hiding his face and crying bitterly and ran away.

From beginning to end, Xue Rin stood by the edge of the Taiye Pool, motionless.

After a moment, he turned his head to the rockery, as if he had guessed that someone was hiding behind the rockery.

"I've seen enough of the play, can Your Highness come out?"

Antai secretly blamed himself for being careless, and was found by someone. Now that Xue Rin has pointed it out, she can't continue to hide, so she turned out of the rockery with her negative hand, and raised her eyebrows slightly, "I just walked here, I didn't mean to eavesdrop." ”

Seeing that she was rarely wearing a serious palace dress, her chin was raised, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and there was a rare heroic spirit among ordinary boudoir girls in her beauty, Xue Rin lowered her eyes and saluted respectfully, "I've seen Your Highness." ”

Without waiting for Antai to speak, he stood up straight again.

Antai didn't care about this, looking at Xue Rin who still looked like she was not close, she said with a straight face: "The third sister was affected by the rumors outside, and she just had some nonsense, General Xue, don't take it to heart." ”

After a pause, he continued, "No matter what happens to others, I have no plans to open a mansion right now. ”

The princess is different from the prince, and only after marriage is granted is she eligible to leave the palace and open the palace. Antai said this, which means that he doesn't want to get married.

Xue Rin's eyelids moved, and he said coldly: "The minister has no plans for the lord. ”

An Tai sneered, "My third sister has a beautiful appearance, a gentle personality, and is the respect of the emperor, is General Xue really not moved?" ”

As soon as the words came out, she regretted it. She didn't have much friendship with Xue Rin, so she really shouldn't make such a joke.

So, he hurriedly apologized solemnly, "I'm really sorry, I'm quick to talk for a while." In that case, you shouldn't make fun of the general. ”

After speaking, he arched his hand.

Xue Rin's face was originally a little bad, but seeing that she would apologize like this with the dignity of a princess, the anger that flashed on her face also dissipated. He also clenched his fist at Princess Antai, "Your Highness is serious. Although Rin is not talented, he is also willing to show his life's ambitions. ”

Hearing this, Princess Antai smiled and said sincerely: "Then I wish the general to fulfill his wish and live up to what he has learned." ”

Empress Xue wanted to throw Xue Rin out to gain connections for her son, but Xue Rin herself was unwilling. If he wants to enter the career and fight for his future, then he will definitely think of his own ideas to deal with Queen Xue.

He has such ambitions, and Antai also has a different view of him. Seeing Xue Rin looking over, he made a good gesture to him in the air, "I'll go first, I still hope that the general won't tell me about it." ”

Although Princess Huatai said that Antai didn't like it, after changing her usual times, Princess Antai didn't care whether she was decent to die or live. But this can't be done at this time, the emperor's illness has not recovered, and Antai really can't bear to ask his father on the hospital bed to worry about these trivial things.

Xue Rin nodded, clenched his fists, and left.

Because he made it clear that he would not be the master, Princess Antai, who was forcibly pulled by someone, was very happy.

This joy escalated until the next day.

Because the emperor finally remembered Tang Yanning, who had contributed to the medicine, under the reminder of the precious concubine. also mentioned Tang Yanning's maternal grandfather, the long-deceased old prince Lin, who was really emotional. Therefore, the next morning, the reward was given.

When Princess Antai learned about it, she immediately ran to the emperor and begged the emperor to hand over the envoy who rewarded Tang Yanning to herself.

The Emperor agreed.

So Princess Antai happily brought a rich reward, escorted by a group of imperial guards, to the Lin Mansion Annex.

Tang Yanning never expected that after the last time the crown prince Yan Ze and Princess Antai were rewarded by the emperor.

This time, I definitely can't just accept the reward casually like last time.

Because it was rewarded by the emperor and the emperor's dictation, Tang Yanning had to invite the Lin family out, and asked the housekeeper to open the middle door, arranged the incense table and incense case, and took the people in the palace with the Lin family to kneel to pick it up.

What the emperor gave was nothing more than colored silk and satin, two boxes of gems and pearls, and a few words of praise from Tang Yanning.

Tang Yanning didn't think anything of it, but Lin was so excited that his face turned red and his breathing became short. If it weren't for Tang Yanrong's support, he would almost have fallen.
