Chapter 243: Instigation
Everyone at the banquet was still talking and eating as if nothing happened, but most of their eyes still involuntarily looked towards Murong Xing.
I saw that after a while, Yahuan took the ointment, and at this time, there was already a blister on the back of Lin Yingxue's smooth and white hand.
During this process, although Lin Yingxue didn't say a word, just looking at everyone felt that the back of her hand was faintly painful.
"This burn is a bit serious, you will bring some alabaster from my house back in a while, and every time you ask someone to change the dressing carefully, such a beautiful pair of hands, don't leave a scar." Murong Xing took Lin Yingxue's hand, and the two big words 'distressed' were written all over his face.
Lin Yingxue nodded in response, because of Murong Xing's concern, Lin Yingxue only felt a piece of ironing in her heart.
And Murong Xing obviously didn't intend to end this matter easily, but she beckoned and whispered something to Yahuan, who nodded and quickly retreated.
Then Murong Xing turned her head, as if she had inadvertently found that Lin Yingling was still standing aside, she couldn't help frowning and whispered: "Hey, why is Yingling still standing?" How do you arrange the location? ”
"Back to the princess, this time was arranged in advance. It is not easy for the slaves and maids to make a place, and if they want to make another vacant seat, I am afraid that they will have to invite a lady or lady to sit at another table. Yahuan replied in embarrassment.
Most of the people who can sit at the same table with Murong Xing are people with noble status like Lin Yingxin, or people who are good friends with Murong Xing, if these people are replaced, and Lin Yingling is replaced by a small side concubine to come and sit down, no matter how you look at it, it seems unreasonable.
Murong Xing looked around, and seemed to feel a little embarrassed, she frowned, and was about to speak, when Yahuan, who had just gone down, came over with a pot of hot new tea.
Murong Xing glanced at the girl, and his eyes lit up for a moment, and he already had an arrangement-"That's it, since the position is not enough, then it is better for you to cook for this princess today." ”
As the eldest princess, Murong Xing has an honorable status, and it seems that there is nothing wrong with letting his younger brother-in-law serve Bucai.
Lin Yingling had already seen that Murong Xing was deliberately standing up for Lin Yingxue, so at this time, she had no room to refuse at all, so she could only resist and respond unwillingly: "It is Yingling's honor to serve the eldest princess for dinner." ”
"That's fine, I'm afraid you don't want to." Murong Xing was very satisfied with Lin Yingling's knowledge of current affairs, she raised her hand to support the step on her head, and said leisurely and slowly: "This princess seems to be a little thirsty, why don't Yingling pour a cup of tea for this princess." ”
As soon as Murong Xing's voice fell, Yahuan on the side brought the tea that had been prepared to Lin Yingling.
Lin Yingling took a deep breath, and after forcibly suppressing the anger in his heart, he reluctantly poured a cup of tea and handed it to Murong Xing.
It's just that Murong Xing turned his head to talk to the person on the side, and he seemed to have completely forgotten what he had just said about drinking tea.
Lin Yingling has been pampered in the Lin family since she was a child, and after marrying Murong Xun, Murong Xun loved her and spoiled her even more, and was reluctant to let her suffer a little grievance.
Is it when did she lose such a person in front of so many people? And the new tea that had just been brewed was already hot, and Lin Yingling couldn't stand it after only serving it for a while.
"My father has been getting better lately......"
"Princess, please have tea!"
Murong Xing was softly asking about the situation in the house next to him, and after Lin Yingling's abrupt interruption fell, the entire banquet suddenly became silent.
The smile on Murong Xing's face dissipated little by little, "This princess is talking to people, when will it be your turn to interject?" ”
Murong Xing is dignified and kind, and he has always rarely blackened his face in front of people, but today's face sank, and his body suddenly exuded a compelling momentum.
Lin Yingling didn't expect Murong Xing to suddenly get angry, she was shocked and anxious, and the teacup in her hand fell to the ground with a 'bang' and shattered.
"The princess forgives her sins, this tea is too hot, Yingling didn't hold it for a while, so she missed it." Lin Yingling didn't realize that the matter was getting bigger, and she was still in place like a log, and there seemed to be some meaning between her words, which was buried in Murong Xing and let her hold it for so long.
But she didn't know that after her words fell, Murong Xing's face was already difficult to see to the extreme.
With a 'snap', Murong Xing stood up suddenly, shook his hand and gave Lin Yingling a heavy slap, "It's just presumptuous!" This princess just asked you to pour a cup of tea for this princess, you have a lot of excuses, and you deliberately beat the teacup, are you expressing your dissatisfaction with this princess?! ”
"The princess is angry, but Ying Ling doesn't dare." Lin Yingling finally realized the seriousness of the matter, she covered her red and swollen cheeks, and knelt on the ground with a 'plop'.
After Murong Xing glared at Lin Yingling fiercely, he turned his gaze to Shao Rui, who came to the banquet with him, "Fifth princess, Lin Yingling, a small side concubine, can't even do such a thing as serving people, how do you, the princess, train the people in the fifth brother's house?" ”
"The princess is angry, all this is Shao Rui's fault, Shao Rui will definitely train Concubine Ling well after she goes back, and she will never let such a thing happen again next time." Although Shao Rui was scolded by Murong Xing, she was extremely happy in her heart.
And this is just because Murong Xun regards Lin Yingling as a treasure, she usually says that Lin Yingling's two sentences will cause Murong Xun's displeasure, let alone 'teach' the person in front of her.
But now that she has the name of Murong Xing, she will come to 'train' Lin Yingling after she goes back, what can Murong Xun say? Thinking of this, Shao Rui almost couldn't help laughing.
"That's fine, this princess doesn't want to see such clumsy people appear in front of this princess in the future."
What should be said has been said, and what should be taught a lesson has also been taught, Murong Xing sat back in his chair and entertained everyone to continue to eat as if nothing happened, ignoring Lin Yingling, who was still kneeling on the side.
After eating this meal for nearly an hour, Lin Yingling knelt like this for nearly an hour, and when the luncheon was over, Lin Yingling's knees were in severe pain, and he could barely stand up, so Shao Rui took Lin Yingling back first.
"Thank you Celestia for helping Yingxue come out today." If you want to talk about today's play, it must be Lin Yingxue, as soon as Lin Yingling left, Lin Yingxue hurriedly thanked Murong Xing.
"What's this, it's just a matter of cleaning up a girl who doesn't know how thick the sky is." Different from Lin Yingling, Murong Xing's attitude towards Lin Yingxue was very gentle, "You, you are usually too temperamental to be bullied by this kind of person, if she dares to use this kind of trick against you in the future, you just bring her to me, I have a way to clean her up!" ”
In fact, even if Murong Xing didn't make a move, she wouldn't swallow her anger, but Lin Yingxue didn't say this, she just thanked Murong Xing softly, and at the same time, she was a little closer to Murong Xing in her heart.
Besides, after Shao Rui took Lin Yingling back, he immediately set up a new rule for Lin Yingling - "In the past, His Royal Highness spoiled you too much, and I didn't care about you, which made you lose such a big person to the Five Princes' Mansion today!" In the future, every morning and dusk is indispensable, and I will teach you all the duties that should be done well in the side rooms. ”
Shao Rui stood at the door and smiled innocently.
Murong Xun always told her that Shao Rui didn't have any scheming, but because she liked him too much, she was a little hostile to her, and told her not to provoke Shao Rui.
But only women know women best, Lin Yingling knows very clearly that Shao Rui just looks big on the surface, if she really fights, the means of the person in front of her will not be worse than her.
Murong Xun has a lot of affairs in his hands, and he is usually busy until late before returning, but today I don't know if he knows that Lin Yingling was wronged by Murong Xing, so Murong Xun came back much earlier than before.
"Have you been drugged?" Although an afternoon had passed, Murong Xing's hands were extremely heavy at that time, so until now, Lin Yingling's cheeks were still red and swollen.
"Don't bother with His Royal Highness Wu, Yingling is just a small side concubine, and she deserves to be taught a lesson." Lin Yingling opened Murong Xun's hand, and there was an aura of displeasure all over his body.
Murong Xun couldn't help frowning when he heard this, "Yingling, you know the reason why I can't straighten you right now, I don't want to repeat the explanation to you every day." ”
He now needs to expand his strength, and he needs to have ministers and officials behind him, so no matter how much he loves Lin Yingling, it is impossible to take Shao Rui, the daughter of the chief soldier, off at this time.
Lin Yingling knew this better than Murong Xun, but she was dissatisfied in her heart, she was just unconvinced.
"I know, I have no identity, I have no status, the Fifth Highness is willing to marry me, I am not thin, I shouldn't ask too much, I can only look at other people's faces to live! I know, I know it all! Your Highness doesn't need to say it, Your Highness, please go and accompany the princess now, why waste time on me, the daughter of a criminal minister! ”
Lin Yingling went crazy and wanted to push Murong Xun away, but no matter how Lin Yingling made trouble, Murong Xun didn't fight back or get angry.
"Wait for me ......"
"When are you there? When will you make me not so angry, and when will you be able to save my father! Lin Yingling's eyes widened and glared at Murong Xun, her face looking a little hideous.
The more Murong Xun's brows tightened, and his face became more and more ugly, but in the face of Lin Yingling, he still tried his best to suppress his temper and said: "In the future, I will definitely give you supreme power, but Lord Lin is a repeat offender in the imperial court, and my father has already ordered the Empress Qiu to be beheaded, and I have no way to save Lord Lin." ”
"No, Xunlang, you can!" Lin Yingling suddenly grabbed Murong Xun's arm, and said with a crazy expression: "As long as you can sit in that position, you can do whatever you want, and at that time, I will no longer be angry, my father can also come out of prison, and the Lin family can also recover its previous prosperity!" ”
"As long as you can sit in that position, we can get everything we want! Xunlang-" Lin Yingling grabbed Murong Xun's hand and said almost pleadingly: "There are still more than five months, and there are still more than five months before my father will be beheaded, we still have more than five months, Xunlang, you must be able to, right?" ”
Lin Yingling's words were full of infinite temptation, and Murong Xun's heart moved slightly.
