"After the queen called me over, she didn't meet me immediately, and kept hanging me at the door and kneeling, waiting for a long time before someone called me in, and my knees hurt to death."

"As for what to ask, shouldn't you be very clear? Not about the rumors out there yet? ”

"Madame suffered. I wonder what the queen asked? Madame, what is your answer? Yong'an Hou squeezed out a reassuring smile on his face and looked at Zhao.

"When the queen summoned me in, she asked me what was going on outside. I said that this is not true, and that someone deliberately spread it. ”

"The real situation is that you went to see the county lord of Qingying just to report the situation to her, and there is absolutely no other meaning, let alone thinking about the county lord."

"Then, the queen asked me how you got on the line with the county lord, and what did you report? I'll tell the Queen Mother everything you told me. ”

"Do you know the results? The queen didn't know whether she believed it or not, so she beat me and told me to recognize my identity and not ruin the reputation of the county lord because of these trivial things. ”

"I didn't do anything, and I was scolded by the queen for nothing, just because of these things of yours."

Speaking of this, Zhao's face appeared a little aggrieved.

"Okay, I see, madam, you have been wronged. I simply don't look down on the county lord Shen Yuan, don't mention this matter in the future, and I don't care about it. Yong'an Hou spoke.

"What? He Lin Shenyuan can't look down on the county lord? Who is he? What is the identity of the county lord? He even looks down on other county lords? Zhao said incredulously.

"Shen Yuan has already married, and now that I think about it, it is indeed not very kind for the county lord to think about a man who has become a relative, so let this matter pass."

"Master Hou, it's true that Shen Yuan is married, but Ziang hasn't yet! Wouldn't it be great if the county lord could marry him? Zhao immediately moved his mind.

"What do you want? Not long ago, I was told that if Lin Ziang married the princess of the Vermilion Bird Kingdom, it would be good for him in the future, and I went to inquire about the princess with an old face. ”

"It's good now, you have a crush on the county lord again? Have you forgotten Empress Fangcai's warning to you? "Yong'an Houqi's brain hurts.

He is really a fool to be willing to listen to Zhao's words.

"Master Hou, look at what you said, no matter how powerful the princess of the Vermilion Bird Country is, she is just a princess of a subordinate country, and she has no real power in her hands."

"If Ziang can marry the county lord, it is equivalent to having a backing. Don't forget, behind the county lord is the queen, and behind the queen is the small half of the court. The more Zhao thought about it, the more enthusiastic he felt.

"Don't say it, Lin Ziang, as a big man, can't be on the stage like this? Don't have the skills? Why do you have to rely on marrying a woman to improve yourself? Don't you feel ashamed? ”

After hearing Zhao's words, Yong'an Hou couldn't help but feel displeased, and moved out the words that Bai Jinli had scolded him at the beginning.

After finishing, he continued to speak: "Look at Shen Yuan, how can he ever rely on others? Obviously, as the son of the Marquis of Yong'an, he is willing to work alone, which is why he has his current status. ”

"Master Hou, what are you mentioning him for? No matter how powerful he is, does it have anything to do with our Hou Mansion? People didn't take the Hou Mansion in their eyes at all, so they couldn't invite them back. Zhao couldn't help but sneer.

She said that she couldn't figure it out, and these elders, who were parents, went to Lin Shenyuan three times and twice regardless of their faces, and said that they would compensate him, but he didn't want to go home, I really don't know what he wanted.

Look at how obedient and sensible Ziang is, she never needs to worry so much and get angry.

"It's Ziang, how well-behaved and sensible and enthusiastic you have been over the years, haven't you seen it?"

"As long as Ziang can be given a chance and can give him a good boost, I believe Ziang will definitely be able to break out of the world."

"It's not that His Majesty didn't give him a chance before, but he did it himself." Yong'an Hou spoke.

"That time it was just Ziang's bad luck and being affected by others, he had this ability. As long as he can marry the county lord, whether it is the county lord or the queen, they will definitely arrange a good errand for him. ”

"When Ziang's errand is done, Your Majesty will definitely praise him and the entire Hou Mansion."

"Okay, don't mention this matter, the county lord is something we can't afford to provoke the Marquis of Yong'an, so you better stop thinking about it." Yong'an Hou couldn't help rubbing his temples.

"Master Hou!!" Zhao is angry again.

Why was Lin Shenyuan there, Yong'an Hou was willing to go on a trip and match him with Gu Qingying, and he did not hesitate to provoke such rumors.

And she just mentioned Ti Ziang, what else is there to do, he looks impatient?

It seems that in Yong'an Hou's heart, it is really Lin Shenyuan's child who has been lost for many years and is not close to them at all is more important.

Lin Ziang has almost no status in Yong'an Hou's heart.

The more they compared, the more uncomfortable Zhao felt, and the more he favored Lin Ziang in his heart.

even silently made a decision, okay, you Yong'an Hou won't help, right, I'll figure it out myself!

No one hurts Ziang, I come to hurt.

"Madam, it's not that I don't care about Ziang, you have also seen it, now that there is such a trouble, even Your Majesty and the Queen are alarmed, and at this time, you have to make up for it in front of the Lord of Qingying, Your Majesty will definitely suspect that we have ulterior motives."

"Oh, Master Hou is right."

Zhao nodded indifferently, but he was thinking in his heart, heh, it's all an excuse.

Say whatever you want, I just won't listen anyway.

"Ziang is still young, ask him if he has a favorite girl another day, and if so, we will help him run."

"Oh." Zhao continued to nod.

"Madam, you have never been in good health, go back first, I'll wait here for a while." After Yong'an Hou finished speaking, he walked straight out of the carriage.

"Wait, wait, if it's really in your heart, there will always be only Lin Shenyuan, no Ziang." Zhao looked at the back of Yong'an Hou and couldn't help but complain again.

"Let's go, let's go back first."

"Yes, ma'am."

Zhao took the carriage and left the gate of the palace first, and the Marquis of Yong'an stood at the gate of the palace and waited, and waited for almost an hour without waiting for Lin Shenyuan.

In the end, he couldn't help it, so he simply went into the palace again to find someone to inquire.

As a result, after this inquiry, I learned that after seeing His Majesty, Lin Shenyuan happened to meet King Heshun again, so he followed King Heshun and left from the gate of another palace.

In other words, he has been waiting for more than an hour.

Yong'an Hou, who learned the news: "............"

I knew that he wouldn't wait, and went back directly with the Zhao family, hey.

After leaving the palace, Yong'an Hou did not go back to their Hou Mansion directly, but went to a teahouse near Bai Mansion to sit, and asked his subordinates to inquire about Lin Shenyuan's movements.

As a result, the news said that after Lin Shenyuan saw Queen Heshun, he had already returned to the camp in Kyoto, and he didn't know when he would come back.

Yong'an Hou didn't give up, so he continued to sit in the teahouse and wait, but he waited until it was dark, and he didn't wait for news from Lin Shenyuan.

Mrs. Li of Baifu is extremely fierce, he just had a disagreement with Bai Jinli a few days ago, if he dares to come to the door now, he will definitely be kicked out by the people of the Bai family.

There was no way, Yong'an Hou had no choice but to go home.

In the night, Lin Shenyuan, who had just returned from the suburbs on horseback, heard the report of chasing the wind, and hummed expressionlessly.

Ever since Yong'an Hou came to their house to find Bai Jinli and said something like that, he had sent someone to keep an eye on Yong'an Hou, so what Yong'an Hou had done today, he knew very well.

He had even guessed the intention of Yong'an Hou to come to him.

I didn't want to apologize to him, and then ask him what His Majesty said when he summoned him into the palace.

Heh, if Yong'an Hou had a little bit of sincere love for him, he would not do such a thing.

He obviously witnessed him marrying Bai Jinli, knew his past, and could still find Bai Jinli behind his back, and say such things to Bai Jinli, which really made people want to laugh.

Did he think that Gu Qingying's stubble matter would be over today?

No, it won't.

Let's see, it's going to get more and more interesting.

——

Yong'an Hou Mansion.

As soon as Zhao returned home, he went to Lin Ziang's yard.

Compared with the previous courtyard, although the size of the courtyard where Lin Ziang lives now is not much different, the environment and decoration are too different.

Originally, if the Zhao family wanted to come to him, they only needed to take a stick of incense.

And now, at least two sticks of incense have to be done.

"Ziang, are you busy?"

"Mother, why are you here? I'm not busy, I'm just reading a book. ”

When Lin Ziang saw Zhao coming, he immediately put down the military book in his hand, got up and sat down with Zhao's arm, and personally poured tea for her.

"Ziang, I've really wronged you these days, why don't you move back to your old yard?"

"Mother, isn't that yard reserved for the eldest brother? It's nice for me to stay here. ”

Lin Ziang's heart moved, but on the surface, he pretended not to care at all.

"It's left to him, it's his own reluctance to come back, who is to blame? What's the matter, if he doesn't come back by himself, will he still occupy the place and not let others live? ”

"Mother, the eldest brother naturally has his ideas, and he will come back when it's time to come back, so let's not force him."

Lin Ziang said this on his lips, but he roared in his heart, it would be better to never come back, and it would be better to die outside.

"Who forced him? What is he capable of? Now that he is an official of the imperial court, is it great? He even dared to refuse the good deeds of Lord Qingying, I think he really has a bad brain. Zhao snorted coldly.

"Mother, what do you mean by that?"

"You've heard all the rumors out there, right? In fact, it was not your father who fell in love with the county lord of Qingying, but the county lord of Qingying fell in love with Lin Shenyuan and asked your father to be a lobbyist, but Lin Shenyuan rejected him. ”

"What do you think he thinks? A noble county lord took a fancy to him and wanted to marry him, he said no, he had to guard the country girl together, isn't it a brain disease? ”

"It's good now, he rejected the county lord, offended the county lord, and let your father carry the black pot inexplicably, and your father and I were summoned to the palace again and were accused, what do you call it?"

Listening to Zhao's complaints, Lin Ziang clenched the fingers in his sleeve jealously.
