Chapter 118: Knowingly asked
He looked at the folds on the table, and silently guessed in his heart, Liu Guifei suddenly came to find him, what was the so-called. He thought about it for a while, and felt that the fight might have something to do with his stupid son.
These days, Liu Guifei has come to ask him for many things for her son's illness, such as where there are home remedies and rare medicinal materials, so he sent someone to buy them...... Come twice a day, and the noise gives him a headache.
sighed as if resigned to her fate, and raised her hand to let her father-in-law announce her. Concubine Liu Guifei walked in, bowed, took the food box from Wen Ran's hand and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the concubine saw that you have been busy with official business recently, so she specially boiled white fungus lotus seed soup." ”
The spoon was stirred gently in the bowl, and as soon as the emperor raised his head to meet Liu Guifei's eyes, he took two sips and put down the spoon helplessly, and asked, "What do you have to say about Concubine Ai." ”
Liu Guifei was reserved for a while, and then asked tentatively: "Major General Lin is a young man." ”
The emperor looked at her lightly and motioned for her to continue.
Liu Guifei pondered in her heart for a moment before continuing: "Major General Lin is not too young to count. After a pause, he added: "Princess Chongde is not too young, it's time to recruit a colt." ”
Princess Chongde is naturally Gu Ziwei, taking the meaning of advocating Deming.
As soon as Concubine Liu mentioned this, the emperor instantly became transparent. Lin Mo is young and talented, if he is admitted to the royal family, it is excellent to have a line with the royal family. Using the identity of a colt to become a family member of the Lin family and the royal family, after all, dealing with family affairs behind closed doors will make many things easier. At that time, you can also use the princess status to contain the Lin family. The more he thought about it, the more feasible it became. Major General Lin's young talent has always been a headache for the emperor, and such a talent is not born royal, but it is not hard. Now that things are gone, he can't help but feel better.
He looked at Concubine Liu Guifei with appreciation, and said: "The matter of Princess Chongde's recruitment of horses is a big deal, I am such a daughter, I have to take a good look, I will consider what you said about Major General Lin." ”
Seeing that the emperor listened to it, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in her heart, and seemed to inadvertently mention: "About Major General Lin...... she paused, "It's that when the princess came to the concubine for tea today, the concubine probed her tone and learned about it." ”
"Oh? Is she interested in Major General Lin? The emperor asked as if surprised. He still hasn't done this yet. Let Liu Guifei go back first, he pondered for a while, and then said to Zhang Gonggong: "Go and call Lin Peng into the palace." ”
The Lin Mansion was not far from the palace, and after a while, Lin Peng was already waiting outside the door of the imperial study, and after a report from his father-in-law, he tidied up his clothes and walked in.
Lin Peng is the general of Pingxi, that is, Lin Mo's father.
He was just about to salute when he was interrupted by the emperor, who heard him say, "Don't hurry up and set up a seat for General Lin." ”
Lin Peng sat on the chair, holding a teacup in his hand, pondering what the emperor called him this time. Holding the teacup and feeling the warmth of the cup, listening to the emperor seemed to recall the beginning, he was a little confused, and then the wind of words changed and heard the emperor pay attention to his son. The teacup he was holding almost overturned, and listening to the emperor's intention to recruit his son as a concubine, he considered it and spoke: "It is his blessing that the child can be the emperor, but it is just ......" He paused deliberately, and saw that the emperor's gaze stopped on him, and he continued: "Shaoshuang is afraid that he already has a heart. ”
"Where does the heart belong?" The emperor asked repeatedly: "But the girl of the Wei family." ”
Lin Peng didn't say yes or no, but said lightly: "As the old saying goes, it is better to demolish ten temples than destroy a marriage, the emperor is grateful for his love for the child, but he is afraid of disappointing the princess." His words are not leaky, even if the emperor intends to be a matchmaker, he has to think about his daughter.
Wei Yun and the three of them came to wander around the street boringly, and only when the sun was about to set did they send Gu Zeyu back to the palace. Lin Mo originally wanted to send Wei Yun home, but on the way, Yan Lin came out of nowhere, saying that the old man had something important to look for him and asked him to go home quickly.
Lin Mo walked home quickly, and entered his yard without thinking about it, and when he really saw the figure under the green leaves, he breathed a sigh of relief, walked over and saluted before asking, "Father is in such a hurry to let me come back, what's the matter?" ”
Lin Peng turned to look at his son, "The emperor just announced that I had entered the palace." After a pause, there was a little smile in his eyes, and he said: "Princess Chongde has taken a fancy to you, and the emperor intends to recruit you as a concubine." ”
Looking at his son's tightly knit brows, the smile in his eyes deepened, and he calmed down and didn't say anything first. Sure enough, Lin Mo asked in a somewhat solemn tone, "Then ...... What did my father say? ”
"I mean, you have a sweetheart." Lin Peng said as he walked towards Lin Mo's study: "Princess Chongde's shelf is too big, our Lin family can't afford it." Stretching out his hand to push the door, he asked again: "However, although I told the emperor that you already have a sweetheart, it is only a delaying tactic, and it is not impossible if the emperor is a strongman." ”
Hearing this, Lin Mo suddenly raised his head and said, "Since this is the case, then propose to the Wei Mansion, and it is better to dispel the emperor's thoughts as soon as possible." ”
"Wei Mansion?" Lin Peng looked back at him, chuckled and asked, "Is it Wei Yun's girl?" ”
Lin Mo looked at the ridicule in his father's eyes, and said helplessly: "Father is asking knowingly." ”
Wei Yun walked on the road, with her hands behind her back, the breeze gently blew the copper bell in her hair, listening to the copper bell, she slowly turned into the Wei Mansion, and came to the little doorman with two scripts.
He hadn't taken two steps before a few shrill scolding broke the silence of the summer afternoon. It seems to have disappeared along with the cool breeze.
The two of them were Shen and Liu Xiuyue, and the two were just blocked in the middle of the road, insulting each other with unbearable words.
Wei Yun frowned and listened for a while, but she didn't know what it was for, seeing that the two of them seemed to be scolding more and more, and they were about to fight, she had to step forward and pull the two apart, signaling that the two had something to say, and there was no need to do it.
Shen twisted his head angrily, glanced at Liu Xiuyue with squinted eyes, and said indignantly: "I have nothing to say to this kind of person." After a pause, he added: "Pig brain." ”
"I think you're a pig's brain, and you've got all the trouble with such a good opportunity."
seemed to know that Wei Yun would pull a frame next to him, and the momentum of the two scolding became stronger, and they also used their hands to massage each other from time to time. The two of them were so Wei Yun deserved to cooperate in the middle to persuade her, the harsh sounds on both sides of her ears gave her a headache, and she finally stopped the two, and asked the reason, she instantly admired her stepmother's brain.
The person involved in the matter was a relative of the Prime Minister's Mansion when he was hanging with Liu Xiuyue that day. It may be that the person has been unlucky recently, and he has lost a lot of silver in horse hanging, and he turned his mind to Liu Xiuyue, saying that as long as Liu Xiuyue gave her fifty taels of silver as matchmaking money, she would immediately be able to pull the Prime Minister's Mansion over with the line, and also said that the Prime Minister's Mansion would definitely treat Liu Xiuyue as a guest.
Don't even try to get candy from a three-year-old child. But Liu Xiuyue believed it...... brought the man to the Wei Mansion, and was about to give the silver when he ran into the Shen family. In just a few words, Shen dissected that person's deception clearly. The man may have a dull face, and after saying a few cruel words, he threw his sleeves and left.
However, Liu Xiuyue was convinced of this matter, and then the two quarreled here.
After Wei Yun listened, she looked at Caixia in the sky and was silent, and it took a long time for her to speak: "That person lied to you." She didn't know what to say except for this, after all, there was really nothing to say about such a simple deception.
Liu Xiuyue said with some reluctance: "I saw her enter the Prime Minister's Mansion, how could she lie to me." ”
"It's not." Wei Yun rubbed her head that was a little painful, and said, "She may indeed be a relative of the prime minister......
"How can it be?" Liu Xiuyue shook the handkerchief in her hand, her face was a little red, and she stared at Wei Yun as if she was about to shoot a knife. In Liu Xiuyue's view, Wei Yun is obviously taking revenge, "She is a relative of the Prime Minister's Mansion." ”
Wei Yun glanced at Shen helplessly, felt patient to explain to her, waved his hand and said: "I mean, she asked you to give her fifty taels and she gave you a tie to get in touch with the Prime Minister's Mansion, she is lying to you." ”
"Impossible!" Liu Xiuyue immediately screamed, alarming a few sparrows to flutter their wings and fly away, she continued: "I met her at the card table, and we have been playing horses and hanging together for a few days, I don't know what kind of person she is, how could she lie to me." ”
Wei Yun thinks it's so difficult to explain this, you also know that you know her at the poker table, and several of the people at the poker table are good people. But Liu Xiuyue didn't understand, how to explain this, could it be that she still treated her as a three-year-old child, and told her bitterly that those are good people and those are bad people...... It's also too hard.
Liu Xiuyue's eyes wandered over the two of them for a while, probably because she felt that there were two people opposite, and she couldn't take advantage of them if she continued to quarrel like this, so she waved her sleeves and said with some disgust: "Okay, okay, I'm tired, I'm going back to rest." Before leaving, he didn't forget to glare at Shen twice.
Wei Yun raised her head, looked at a red-hot cloud in the sky, and felt the cool breeze on her cheeks, and her headache felt much more comfortable. She understands that not everyone understands reason......
Shen sorted out the hem of his skirt, his face was full of exhaustion, and he was a little helpless, and sighed and said, "It's not what the eldest brother thought at the beginning, so he let her marry into the Wei Mansion." ”
Wei Yun also took a deep breath and shook her head to indicate that she didn't know. After saying hello, she walked towards her yard. As soon as he arrived at the door, Chuntang hugged Xiaobai to greet him, looked behind him, and asked, "Is Major General Lin gone?" ”
