Chapter 4 Reminiscences
"Major General Lin must have heard that a few days before my father's death, I mentioned the marriage contract between me and the prince in front of the emperor, in fact, there is something in the Wei family that everyone covets, which was given by the ancestor of the Wei family after he followed the king to conquer the country. Now, the pillars of the Wei family have fallen, and for the emperor, it is like a waste chess. ”
Lin Mo raised his eyebrows and took over her words, "So the prince not only wants to get the things of the Wei family, but also wants to leave the position around him to the family that is most helpful to him, and the easiest way is to get rid of the Wei family." ”
When Wei Yun heard this, she was excited, grabbed Lin Mo's hand and nodded, and the word "bosom friend" was clearly written in her two bright eyes.
Lin Mo looked at the two white, tender and soft little hands that were grabbing his arms, and the tips of his ears were a little red, but his face was unaware, "If it is really the prince's doing, Miss Wei should be careful." ”
Wei Yun frowned, the situation is really not optimistic, what should she do?
A few days later, as soon as Wei Yun returned from Lin's house, she saw a woman dressed in grace, sitting on a stone chair in her courtyard.
"Yo, this big girl's family is finally willing to come back, and she is going to the Lin family again?" A shrill voice came from the woman's mouth.
Since Lin Mo saved Wei Yun, Wei Yun went to the Lin Mansion to inquire about the situation twice in three days, and within a few days, the gossip in the market changed to a new direction: the stupid girl of the Wei family pestered the major general of the Lin Mansion and came to the door every day to ask for a meeting.
Wei Yun didn't care about those gossips, just looked at her dressed as a palace maid, and couldn't help but be a little puzzled, "Who are you?" ”
The woman's eyes became more and more cold, and she drooped her eyelids and pointed her nostrils at her, "The old slave came to invite Miss Wei into the palace on the order of the princess, who knew that Miss Wei actually made the old slave wait for a morning, delaying the time to enter the palace, and the princess will be blamed!" ”
The corner of Wei Yun's mouth sneered, a grandmother, no matter how high her status is, she is a slave, and she still wants to show her face, in vain to ask for some benefits? She pretended not to know and asked, "I don't know what happened to the princess?" ”
The woman rolled her eyes as if she didn't know the rules, "You'll know when you arrive!" ”
Wei Yun knew in her heart that this trip was not a good thing, so she lowered her eyes and said nothing, and followed the woman to the carriage to the palace.
"General Wei's daughter Wei Yun has arrived."
After a shrill and loud voice was announced, Gu Yining's face changed, and he quietly poured some powder into the cup, and the powder quickly merged with the tea.
Wei Yun strode to the hall with his head held high, and gave Gu Yining a salute in a dignified manner.
"Why did the princess think of calling me into the palace today? When I returned home, I saw the grandmother who had ordered the order, so that I was late to enter the palace. ”
When Gu Yining heard this, she smiled, and there was a hint in her eyes, "It's okay, this palace just suddenly wants to find you to catch up with the past, no, I just temporarily planned to let you enter the palace today." ”
Up? Wei Yun sneered in her heart, this unruly princess would catch up with herself? I'm afraid I haven't tortured myself for a few days, and my hands are itchy again!
"I heard that you have been very close to Major General Lin recently, you tell this palace, are you ......" Gu Yining held his chin, looking like he wanted to listen to gossip, but his smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes.
Wei Yun's eyes fluttered, and he remained silent, "General Lin was my father's best friend before his death, and he liked me very much and asked me to go to the Lin Mansion often as a guest. ”
Saying that, Wei Yun's cheeks faintly showed a faint flush, and there was a slight hint of shame on her face, Gu Yining saw it in her eyes, and the jealousy in her heart burned wildly.
She pushed the teacup in her hand in front of Wei Yun, "Look at my memory, this is the Longjing I just made for you, Miss Wei came all the way, she should be tired, come, how about tasting this tea." ”
Wei Yun smelled the fragrance of tea, frowned slightly, and put down the teacup, "Thank you princess for the reward, but unfortunately I have been injured recently, so I am not suitable for drinking green tea." ”
As she spoke, she rolled up her sleeves and exposed her tightly bandaged arms. Gu Yining looked shocked in her heart, but her face was still calm.
Without waiting for Gu Yining to speak, Wei Yun continued: "I was assassinated a few days ago, but the princess doesn't have to worry, she just suffered a little skin injury, thanks to Major General Lin who came to the rescue. ”
Gu Yining stood up suddenly, a pair of beautiful eyes widened, "What?" Did Lin Mo save you? Why did he save you? ”
A trace of doubt flashed on Wei Yun's face, "Why is the princess so excited?" I don't know why he came to save me, but the assassin has been captured by Major General Lin, and now he is probably interrogated, and he also said that he will report this matter to the emperor and avenge me. ”
As she spoke, her face showed a touch of shyness, in fact, that assassin had already been killed when Lin Mo came to save her, and Wei Yun was just tricking her. This princess seemed to be expected of her assassination, and said that she was obviously interested in Lin Mo, and she may have known about it a long time ago, or she was the mastermind behind the scenes!
Gu Yining couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat behind her back, she really couldn't contact that person these days, but thinking of Wei Yun's familiar tone when she mentioned Lin Mo, her heart was sour!
"He avenged you? And report the matter to the emperor? Wei Yun, what you think is too beautiful! Lin Mo is the concubine of the palace sooner or later, will he hand over the palace? Or do you think my father will punish me for your sake? ”
After speaking, she chuckled in her heart, looking at the expression on Wei Yun's face that seemed to be smiling, she instantly realized what kind of low-level mistake she had made!
