The title of the so-called loyal and brave general is not an honorary title without real power, but a real control of the soldiers and horses.

Although it is only a few thousand, it is better than nothing, one person, one force, maybe it will be useful.

Wang Yuanzhao was not polite to Emperor Tianlong, accepted the talisman, returned to his original position, and thought about how to slip out of the palace. He also wanted to go to his mother's place to see his mother and eldest brother.

As soon as he turned around unintentionally, he met Wang Yuanxuan's eyes.

Wang Yuanxuan's eyes were not good, and he didn't know what crooked ideas he was thinking.

I don't know if he was taught a lot of lessons by Wang Yuanzhao, Wang Yuanxuan unwillingly lowered his head and avoided his gaze.

The interaction between the two grandsons, Wang Qun saw it in his eyes. In all fairness, Wang Qun prefers Wang Yuanxuan, who has been brought by him since he was a child. But Wang Yuanzhao has that person's bloodline......

It's not that he doesn't know that Wang Yuanzhao pressed his beloved grandson into the pit to eat, but ......

Wang Qun let out a long breath, trying not to think about what made him angry. Someone came to toast in front of him, so he simply went down the slope, but he didn't see the scene in front of him.

The banquet is halfway through, the whole hall is full of the aroma of wine and meat, warm as spring, the wind outside can't blow in, but it also makes people feel very uncomfortable.

Wang Yuanzhao finished receiving the emperor's reward and sat on the seat, I don't know if it was a coincidence, the diagonal opposite him was the Wei family.

As soon as he sat down, Wei Jiabin came over.

Out of politeness, Wang Yuanzhao picked up the wine glass and took a small sip. Wei Jiabin saw it in his eyes and was even more satisfied.

Wei Jiayin sat on the women's seat and pretended to be a coincidence and looked at her brother and fiancé over there. Wei Jiabin walked back and said something teasingly, Wei Jiayin only felt that his face was slightly hot.

My brother said that at the banquet, he knew how to drink in moderation and had a gentlemanly demeanor.

In fact, in the past, Wang Yuanzhao was the best person to drink, and as soon as the Wei family brothers and sisters spoke, Wang Yuanzhao couldn't smell the temptation of these smells, so he simply stood up and went out.

As soon as the wind blew outside, the man was a little more energetic, he was already injured, and he didn't drink at all.

Before I could enjoy the silence outside for a while, there were already a few rustles of footsteps behind me.

Wang Yuanzhao then looked back and saw that it was Chu Jiang.

Chu Jiang drank a little too much at the banquet today, and his face looked a little red at this time.

But he walked very steadily, and there was no need to worry that he would fall.

The two still had some friendship, Wang Yuanzhao waited for him to walk in, let go, and asked Chu Jiang to stand beside him. The two faced the red wall and white snow and chatted.

After Lin Qiantan took care of the Shen family and really fell asleep, she temporarily handed over the old man to Wang Yaxin, the eldest aunt who came to replace her.

She herself, looking at the sky, thought that there should be some time before Lin Yangde and the others came back, so she went back to change the maid's clothes, slipped out of the back door, and went straight to Zhang's house.

The Zhengguo Mansion was disgusted by Emperor Tianlong, and it had become the object that everyone was afraid of. During the day, there are still a few pedestrians passing by on the road, and at night, every household is waiting for the New Year's Eve lively, only the Zhang family is so quiet that there is almost no sound.

Looking at it, there are not many lights in the whole house, which shows how much the Zhang family has saved in order to save money.

Even the children playing in the streets and alleys are reluctant to come to the door of Zhang's house to set off firecrackers.

Lin Qiantan knocked on the door of the Zhang family in the silent night.

Seeing it with my own eyes, I knew how dilapidated the Zhang family had been in a short period of time, and the middle courtyard as the façade looked like it had not been taken care of for two or three days on the main road of the house. Dead branches and leaves in the ground, random rolls, and even broken eggs thrown in by somebody, and a fallen paper kite.

Although there is still a name of the Guogong Mansion there, the Zhang family is like this......

Zhang Yan was extremely surprised when she saw her coming: "Why are you here?" Originally, I heard that there was a little girl from the Dongshan Hou Mansion coming over, and she was afraid that Lin Qiantan had something important. As a result, it turned out to be Lin Qiantan herself.

The concierge of the Zhang family originally knew Lin Qiantan, but the one who was replaced recently was originally guarded in the back door thatched house - the original concierge resigned.

The Zhang family is now used by one person as two people.

After entering, Lin Qiantan didn't see Zhang Luyuan.

It was Duchess Zheng Guo who personally entertained her. Lin Qiantan didn't stay long at Zhang's house, so she went back. When she stepped into the back door of the Dongshan Hou Mansion, she heard that the people from the Lin family in front of her had already returned.

Lin Qiantan didn't have time to go back to the Shen family to be a filial granddaughter, so she simply went back to Yinping Pavilion to change her clothes. Before she could reach the Silver Screen Pavilion, she bumped into a person head-on on the path at the base of a wall in the back cover room.

It was dark, and Lin Qiantan couldn't see who the other party was, so she just wanted to pretend to be a maid in the house, hide people's eyes and leave quickly. The man grabbed Lin Qiantan with a smile - this person happened to recognize Lin Qiantan's voice.

She was anxious to go back before others found out that she was not there, but the person did not let go: "Where did Miss Seven come from and where are you going?"

Lin Qiantan stumbled and accidentally bumped into the man.

The embroidery thread on the man's body protruded uncomfortably, and the man's voice sounded over her head again, Lin Qiantan thought that she still remembered that it was the voice of the fourth prince. It must have been the subconscious scream when it met it, which attracted attention.

Lin Qiantan ignored the four princes, and when the four princes thought that they were holding Lin Qiantan's handle, they reached over and reached out to Lin Qiantan's chest, Lin Qiantan raised his foot and kicked it between the legs of the four princes, only to collide so that the four princes immediately knelt on the ground, unable to speak in pain.

"Your Highness, Fourth Highness, it's better to take care of your own business. The deception of the king is in the front, the trespass in the courtier's mansion is in the back, and now he intends to rape the courtiers. If the Fourth Highness is smart, why don't you leave as soon as the pain is over? As for where I came from and where I'm going, His Royal Highness will probably not say. ”

The face of the fourth prince, who was in pain when he said this, turned white subconsciously.

Having said that, Lin Qiantan also had doubts about meeting the same sneaky fourth prince in the remote part of her house.

But in any case, let's talk about it first.

The sudden situation made Lin Qiantan's heart beat suddenly. But after calming down, I knew to think about why the four princes appeared in the Dongshan Marquis Mansion.

The fourth prince was still hunched over, in pain, and he was a little relieved, just about to say something "You dare to attack the prince". was robbed by Lin Qiantan again.

Lin Qiantan is right, he shouldn't be troublesome.

Lin Qiantan walked away after a while, and the fourth prince, who was almost cut off by her knee, stood up trembling on his legs after a while.

He didn't know that the seventh lady of the Dongshan Hou Mansion was such a character.

I regret it even more in my heart, why did I be impulsive and pull people down.

Lin Qiantan didn't care when the four princes left. Almost as soon as she returned, she called someone to inquire about the situation.

In Lin Qiantan's words, the fourth prince will appear in the Hou Mansion, and it really has something to do with her broken eighth sister. The eighth lady of the Dongshan Hou Mansion opened her doors for business in the Chinese New Year's Eve, and slept like a dragon son and a dragon grandson.

*

According to Lin Qiantan's knowledge, the fourth prince claimed to be infected with wind and cold in the past two days, and did not enter the palace for the New Year's banquet.

Emperor Tianlong has never valued this fourth son anyway. If he enters the palace or not, Emperor Tianlong really doesn't care much.

But if the fourth prince does not go to the palace to bless his father and emperor in the Chinese New Year's Eve, but goes to the courtier's house, it is another matter.

So Lin Qiantan was not worried that the fourth prince would tell her about it. The four princes are not stupid, that is, they are just lustful and bold for a while.

However, what Lin Qiantan didn't expect was that she kicked too hard.

The fourth prince had just gone out from Lin Bixiang, and when his body was weak, Lin Qiantan's kick made him suffer enough. At night, he suddenly had unbearable pain somewhere, and the house also urgently invited the imperial doctor to go back, and outsiders only thought that the fourth prince was not good for typhoid fever, and he didn't take it seriously.

After the imperial doctor left, the fourth prince fell several cups and bowls, and his stomach was on fire.

The physician said that he had suffered a heavy blow and was temporarily injured. Although it will not be useless from now on, I am afraid that it will not be easy to use from now on, and in the matter of women, it is even more necessary to be restrained.

The concubine of the Four Princes' Mansion, who didn't know at all, came over with a tonic to add fragrance to her red sleeves, but only got the word "roll".

*

Lin Qiantan didn't know the good things she had done.

When she returned, she took off all her coats, gave them to the maidservant, told her to take them and throw them away, took a hot bath herself, and changed into the lady's clothes.

When the Lin family came back from the palace, they had to keep the New Year. Lin Qiantan was already the last one when she passed.

But no one said anything.

Lin Qiantan found that there was something wrong with the expressions of the people in the room, Lin Dong's face seemed to be a little bad, and Lin Quan was the opposite.

Lin Qiantan couldn't help but wonder, did something good happen to the Lin family in the palace?

Soon, she heard the way from everyone's conversation. It turned out that Lin Yangde mentioned to the emperor the matter of the prince of the Tihou Mansion when he toasted Emperor Tianlong.

Needless to say, what Lin Yangde mentioned was naturally Lin Quan's sister-in-law.

Unexpectedly, these things happened when they entered the palace.

It's no wonder that no one complained about her late arrival.

Lin Quan was in a good mood, and it was naturally more pleasing to the eye when he looked at Lin Qiantan. Although it was not his own, it brought him good luck.

Everyone was vague about the words, Lin Qiantan frowned when she heard it, looking at the meaning of what they said, what else was related to her?

In the end, Lin Ziye told Lin Qiantan about this matter.

Lin Ziye also stepped into Lin Qiantan's house for the first time, and he couldn't help but be a little curious. Lin Qiantan brought the tea bought from the Southeast Maritime Merchant, and he came back to his senses.

Lin Ziye first talked about the Lin family's affairs in the palace, and secondly, he mentioned that he was unwilling to delay Miss Qi's family. Lin Qiantan asked him what his plans were, and he only said that he still wanted to go back to the front.

Speaking of things in the palace, Lin Qiantan knew how Lin Quan rubbed her free ride.

Speaking of which, it was because of a sentence that Concubine Xiao inadvertently mentioned to the imperial concubine Yin Qiang at the banquet.

Lin Ziye was following behind his grandfather and father at that time, and he also heard how Concubine Xiao and Emperor Tianlong specially mentioned how Lin Qiantan's hand was injured in the Imperial Concubine Palace.

Emperor Tianlong not only had the heart to please Concubine Xiao, but also remembered Chu Ling's goodness, Lin Qiantan was her daughter, so Emperor Tianlong said a word of praise in passing.

The matter of the prince of the Hou Mansion was brought up at this time.

After Lin Ziye went back, Shen Ning also called the little girl over, saying that she had something to discuss with her. Lin Qiantan made an appointment with Shen Ning the next day.

The situation of the two lives is different, but Lin Yangde finally decided to call his son-in-law to be the heir. But she wasn't going to break her word.

*

I just turned the New Year, and of course there are still a lot of things to do on the next day of the New Year.

Lin Qiantan fell asleep and got up, and first followed the Lin family to the ancestral hall to worship. When the time came, she was still staying in the house, and Lin Yangde and the others had to go into the palace to worship.

Lin Qiantan ignored them, and went to the Chu family alone.

Winter is not far away, and the streets are still full of people coughing everywhere.

The spring of the twelfth year of Tianlong came, and the Jiang family, who had been in the Chu family for several months, was finally willing to move out. And Jiang Zhiyue is no longer good at living in the Chu family on the grounds that she has no relatives by her side.

Lin Qiantan passed at the right time, and the Jiang family was packing their luggage. Lin Qiantan entered the door, and Jiang Zhiyue was saying goodbye to her aunt in the main courtyard. The homesickness courtyard was originally the boudoir where Lin Qiantan's biological mother once lived, and Jiang Zhiyue occupied the magpie's nest for a long time.

Lin Qiantan thought it was funny. It was obvious that she lent her biological mother's former residence to Jiang Zhiyue to live in, how could the other party look at her with resentment as if she was persecuted by her?

It's a pity that the concubine is intentional, but Lang Jun is ruthless, and Chu Jiang didn't look at her from beginning to end.

Looking at Jiang Zhiyue's appearance, she didn't seem to know why her family moved to the capital.

The Jiang family's wealth was scattered, of course, it was their own sin. However, Lin Qiantan doesn't seem to be without help.

At least...... Jiang Zhiyue's father and mother stayed in their hometown to sell their ancestral house, and it was she who bought it by suppressing the price.

With the money from the sale of the house, the Jiang family can also buy a house in a remote area of the capital that is enough to live in. I just don't know if Miss Jiang will regret that she easily agreed to move out with her family when she saw her new house in the past.

Lin Qiantan just passed by by the way, but in Jiang Zhiyue's opinion, it was naturally just a show-off, Lin Qiantan was still in the Chu family and didn't leave, so she heard Jiang Zhiyue knock out a corner of the coral jade Buddha left in Chu Ling's house.

Lin Qiantan only treats her as a child.

As an adult, you don't care about your child, but you can collect debts from her parents. Didn't the Jiang family also have some ancestral treasures stored in her pawnshop? She's ...... Break a few at will, and then pay some silver to the Jiang family, and then close the store that has lost its reputation.

The first day of the Lunar New Year is a good day, and the Jiang family is probably looking forward to using this good day to transfer to the family, so they deliberately pick this day to move and transport.

Lin Qiantan stayed at the Chu family until the evening, when the Jiang family's people had already left. She just went to the homesick house.

Chu Jiang was going to accompany her, but she politely refused.

Chu Jiang then thought that maybe she was just staying alone with her deceased aunt, so she simply went about her own business.

Lin Qiantan didn't even bring the maid in, and entered the courtyard alone after a long absence.

Jiang Zhiyue is still a good acquaintance, and she doesn't dare to move much with the flowers and plants in this yard. There was no need for Lin Qiantan to say anything, her uncle Chu gradually would naturally warn his wife to be optimistic about his niece. And even if Jiang Ningniang is weak because of such a thing as an heir, she will inevitably compromise.

This homesick courtyard is the best courtyard of the entire Chu family, and the only thing that can be compared to it is the main courtyard where Wang Shanya of the Wang family lives next door. The mansion of Princess San'in was luxurious, and these two courtyards have always been equally famous for the sun and the moon.

She knew that in the eyes of others, maybe this small courtyard was just what she had been away from for a few years. But for her, it's really lost and regained.

In the previous life, the Chu family was in trouble, and the mansion was also bought by others, at least until she died, she had not raised even one-tenth of the silver to buy the mansion back.

But that's not the case now.

My uncle discussed with her that this yard would be slightly renovated and used as a new house.

I think the next time I come back, there will be a lot of things different here.

Lin Qiantan stayed at the Chu family until the night was almost dark before leaving.

The spring flowers on the trees are blooming well, there is a different kind of beauty in the night, and the carriage walks on the road, stepping on the capital at night, making a gurgling sound.

When I went back to the Hou Mansion, it was already late.

This time, the Lin family has not returned.

After making trouble for a long time, news came out from the palace, and it turned out that Emperor Tianlong suddenly fainted for a moment in the Jinluan Hall on the first day of the new year. There is no one in a group of concubines and courtiers who is not frightened. But Lin Qiantan was not surprised.

I thought it was no wonder that after Lin Yangde went in, he didn't even come back with his family.

After all, Lin Yangde was old, and his body had been suffering from some illnesses due to excessive indulgence, and he always couldn't stand it when he followed others to stand it for most of the day, so after he came back, he simply lay down with the Shen family.

Lin Qiantan thought that she didn't seem to have entered the palace to see Concubine Xiao for a long time.

*

When Emperor Tianlong reached his age, he neglected to maintain his health, and it was inevitable that he would have some health problems. Looking at a mighty and majestic person, who knows how many sick roots he has buried?

Lin Qiantan went into the palace and found Concubine Xiao, what she did was to remind Concubine Xiao to pay attention to certain things.

She knows some partial pharmacology, and she is also taught by Yin Toughness, and she knows how to actively do business with overseas businessmen, which can be regarded as being affected by Yin Toughness. The people of the Central Plains have always held themselves the upper kingdom of the Celestial Empire, and they have not had much contact with overseas merchants, so they naturally have never looked down on the outstanding achievements of civilization overseas.

As everyone knows, there are all kinds of strange things in the world, and there are always some strange flowers and plants, which are unfamiliar to Langzhong in the Central Plains.

Lin Qiantan remembered that in the later period of Emperor Tianlong's reign in the previous life, he was clearly nervous and hostile to Yin Tenacity, but after a serious illness, he suddenly knew each other with Yin Tenacious Monarch and Minister.

Yin Ren even completely controlled the government and excluded dissidents for a time, probably starting from the time Emperor Tianlong fainted.

Lin Qiantan used to stay by Yin Ren's side day and night, and there is no doubt that there is a chance to peep at Yin Ren's actions.

Judging from her later perspective, Emperor Tianlong suddenly had a better relationship with Yin Tenacity, and he should have just been controlled by Yin Tenacity with some kind of drug, and had to be controlled by others. Lin Qiantan knew that there were so many crops overseas, and if they were overeaten, they would be mentally dependent. Among them, the degree of addiction is far greater than that of Wushisan in the Central Plains.

At that time, the imperial doctor couldn't see what the situation was when he checked the emperor's pulse, and Lin Qiantan thought that history might repeat itself.

Because of her rebirth, although the historical trajectory has not changed in the direction of the great river, there are many differences in the details of many things.

The time when Emperor Tianlong fainted for the first time was also much earlier than when she was in her previous life.

In that case, perhaps what she should have done was to delay the time a bit.

Hope...... Concubine Xiao does have some weight in Emperor Tianlong's mind.

Lin Qiantan thought so, so she did the same. The next day, on the second day of the Lunar New Year, she handed over the sign and entered the palace to see Concubine Xiao. She often goes to the palace to visit and accompany her, and there is a reason why she is preparing for this day.

Although Concubine Xiao hated Emperor Tianlong, she always hoped that Emperor Tianlong could stay on that throne for a long time, so as to ensure that she, the embarrassing princess of the dead country, was safe and even enjoyed wealth forever.

Lin Qiantan had no evidence to prove that what she wanted to say would definitely happen, so she had to persuade Concubine Xiao in a roundabout way, telling her to be more attentive to Emperor Tianlong's diet.

"Your Majesty is overworked, and there is no queen in the palace, or the concubine Niangniang, who is an elder, works more hard and does something for Your Majesty, it is better than those ghosts and ghosts who take advantage of the situation and make waves."

Concubine Xiao paused with her hand pinching the teacup.

Lin Qiantan waited for Concubine Xiao to respond.

Concubine Xiao pretended not to understand, and said with a smile: "What do you mean by this?"

"What does the courtier mean otherwise?" Lin Qiantan also rarely saw Concubine Xiao showing sharp eyes to her. After pretending to be stupid, she took the opportunity to give an example of the previous dynasty: "I heard that during the period of Emperor Wen of Xia, there were eunuchs who interfered in politics, and Emperor Wen was also careless and poisoned in bed, and since then the government has been controlled by the eunuch party...... Later, this calamity brought disaster to the country and the people, and coerced the Son of Heaven to make the princes 9,000 years old be removed, which was very happy. ”

Concubine Xiao is the princess of the Xia Dynasty, of course she will not be disgusted by others talking about the Xia Dynasty in front of her. Not only does she like to hear what others say, but she also speaks herself. Just now, Concubine Xiao was talking to Lin Qiantan about the period of Emperor Xia Wu.

Lin Qiantan also mentioned that matter in a timely manner.

Emperor Xia Wen was the elder brother of Emperor Xia Wu. And during the reign of Emperor Wu, it was the most prosperous time for Concubine Xiao's mother.

But Concubine Xiao would never take what Lin Qiantan said as an answer to what she just said. Lin Qiantan said at the beginning of the "pay attention to the body", but she listened to it.

Concubine Xiao looked at Lin Qiantan's eyes a little complicated.

This little girl, did she know something and wanted to tell her tactfully?

Lin Qiantan completed the task, sat at Concubine Xiao's place for a while and left. Concubine Xiao thought for a moment, stood up, and decided to take the initiative to go to Emperor Tianlong to have a look. It is best for this man to live a few more years, so that she, the concubine of the former emperor, can live a long life......
