Chapter 236: Choosing a Concubine

The Bai people say that they are a race, but in fact there are not many people, and their land does not belong to any country, but because it is close to Rongguo, they give money to Rongguo every year to seek the blessing of Rongguo...... This is Lin Yingxue's all she knows about the Bai Nationality.

But through Bao's intermittent narration, Lin Yingxue then knew that there were many sects in the Bai Clan, and the Cat Sect was the most powerful one in the Bai Clan, and the number of the Cat Sect was also the smallest among all the sects.

The cat sect respects the spirit cat as the master, all the disciples of the sect are personally selected by the spirit master, and then the other people in the sect will train those carefully selected by the spirit master, if the person who successfully cultivates the 'pupil technique' can become the disciple of the cat sect, as for those who are blind, or the seven orifices bleed to death, the end can be described as very tragic.

Ah Bao has lived in this bloody sect since he was a child, which also makes him have a deep fear of this sect.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ After I cultivated the pupil technique, I once went on a mission with the people in the sect, and then I bled and fell, and the people of the same sect thought I was dead, so they left me alone to flee, but I didn't expect that I didn't die, and I was lucky to be rescued by Mr. Feng and brought me back. ”

Then he met Lin Yingxue, and then followed Lin Yingxue to the imperial city.

After Lin Yingxue listened to Ah Bao's words, she only felt that her heart was pinched, she lovingly hugged the pale Ah Bao into her arms, and carefully comforted: "Ah Bao, the past has passed, and now that you are here, I will definitely protect you and will not let people hurt you in the slightest." ”

"No!" I thought that Ah Bao would be greatly moved after listening to Lin Yingxue's words, but I didn't want Ah Bao to react violently and straighten up from Lin Yingxue's arms, "Sister Yingxue, those people are terrible!" The reason why they can become the most powerful sect is because they have vicious methods and often kill people invisibly, and the people of other sects are unable to guard against it, so they avoid it in every possible way and refuse to clash with them. ”

"And Ah Bao has already learned the pupil technique, because there are few disciples, firstly, they will not let Ah Bao go, and secondly, they are afraid that Ah Bao will pass on the cultivation method of the pupil technique, so they must bring Ah Bao back! If Sister Yingxue insisted on stopping it, these people would definitely not give up! Ah Bao didn't want Sister Yingxue to be hurt, so Sister Yingxue still let Sister Ying Xue go, so that Ah Bao wouldn't drag Sister Yingxue down. ”

Po's face was full of anxiety, as if he was about to cry out in a hurry.

Lin Yingxue stroked Ah Bao's head, and felt unbearable, "But now that they have discovered your traces, what if you are caught by them?" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ It's a big deal, just work for them again......" Ah Bao lowered his head, a pair of small hands clenched into fists, and the strength was so great that even the knuckles were white.

Lin Yingxue saw it in her eyes, and her heart ached a little faintly - she really understood this desperate feeling of being isolated and helpless, wanting to resist but not having the ability to resist.

She was the same at the beginning, she originally thought that she had worked hard for half her life, and finally supported Murong Xun to ascend to the throne, and what was waiting for her in the future was a splendid year, but she never thought that as soon as she turned around, she would be a hell of a nose, and looking at her side, there was no one who really treated her except for a flute.

Now God has reborn her, and she has met a child who is so hard-working. Even though she is not a person with great good intentions, she can't watch Po go back to hell again.

"This matter is up to Sister Yingxue to solve, Bao, don't think about it, stay in the house with peace of mind, you know?" Lin Yingxue stroked Bao's face and explained seriously.

Ah Bao glanced at Lin Yingxue, and finally threw himself into Lin Yingxue's arms and didn't speak again.

Because of Ah Bao's narration, Lin Yingxue stayed in the house for several days and never went out, first, she was worried that Ah Bao would secretly escape by herself, and secondly, she was worried that the group of Bai people would find her, and in the end, the two things she was worried about did not happen, but she waited for the invitation to the queen's banquet in the palace.

The queen has not held such a grand banquet in the palace for a long time, this time it is rumored that the queen feels that the prince is not young, since the former princess died of illness, the position of the crown princess has been vacant, the prince has no children under his knees, and those concubines cannot give birth to children before the princess, otherwise it will be a trouble for the children to inherit orthodoxy in the future, so the queen wants to take this opportunity to find another princess for the prince, and after the new princess enters the door, the prince has the possibility of extending the heir.

In this way, this banquet is extremely important to the crown prince.

"Yingxue!" Lin Yingxue entered the palace alone, she got off the carriage at the palace gate and didn't take a few steps when she heard a familiar voice behind her.

She couldn't help but stop and turned her head to look, only to see Murong Jun and Lin Yingxiang walking side by side, slowly walking towards her - the unparalleled son-in-law and the gentle and virtuous lady, at first glance, the two of them are really a perfect match.

"You're waiting for me here." After walking a few steps, Murong Jun suddenly whispered to Lin Yingxiang to stay where he was, while he himself walked quickly in the direction where Lin Yingxue was.

"Is there anything wrong with the Third Highness?" Lin Yingxue took two steps back and blessed her body, her face was indifferent and detached.

"I-" Murong Jun wanted to reach out to help Lin Yingxue as he spoke, but Lin Yingxue dodged him sideways.

Murong Jun knew that Lin Yingxue was scrupling in the palace, so he had done enough to do the courtesy, so he had no choice but to follow Lin Yingxue's meaning, withdraw his hand, and whisper in a voice that could only be heard by the two of them: "The queen mother has always admired you, and the queen mother will put her thoughts on you." Be careful with this matter, and I will mention the matter of marriage to my father at a later time. ”

Last time, because he was framed for collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, although there was no evidence for that person, the emperor had already become suspicious of Murong Jun.

Lin Yingxue wanted to appease Murong Jun and say that there was no need to be so anxious about asking for marriage, but when she looked up, she inadvertently saw a new purse hanging from Murong Jun's waist, and a pair of mandarin ducks playing in the water were embroidered on the purse.

"Now that His Royal Highness has reconciled with the second sister Qin Se, if I marry into the Third Prince's Mansion in the future, the second sister will be unhappy. In my opinion, this marriage matter should be forgotten. Lin Yingxue held back the pain in her heart, and after saying it in one breath, she turned around and left without looking back.

"Yingxue-" Murong Jun didn't know why Lin Yingxue suddenly spoke coldly to him, he wanted to catch up and ask what was going on, but there were many people here, and it was inconvenient for him to act.

Looking at Lin Yingxue's back as he walked away quickly, Murong Jun couldn't help but reach out and touch the sachet on his waist - this was a habit he developed when he was outside, whenever he encountered difficulties and missed Lin Yingxue, he would touch the sachet that Lin Yingxue gave him, so it was as if he felt that Lin Yingxue was by his side.

It's just that the feeling of this purse seems to be a little wrong today, he frowned and looked down, only to see that the purse on his waist was very new, where was it still the sachet that he had carried with him for a long time?

"Your Highnessβ€”" At this time, Lin Yingxiang also followed.

Murong Jun suddenly turned around when he heard the voice, "Today is the clothes you went to the room to change for me, and what about the sachet I hang around my waist every day?" ”

Murong Jun stared at Lin Yingxiang firmly, his inky black eyes surging with anger.

Although Murong Jun is usually cold to her, he has never been angry with her, at this time, seeing Murong Jun's appearance, Lin Yingxiang couldn't help but be startled, "Your Highness is angry, the sachet is worn by His Highness every day, it is already a little worn, and the smell of the incense in the sachet has been dissipated, so the concubine asked her subordinates to take it and wash the sachet, and I planned to sew the sachet again when the concubine body is ready, and then replace it with a new incense medicine and then give it to His Royal Highness...... I don't know if the concubine has done something wrong, and I ask His Royal Highness for forgiveness. ”

Lin Yingxiang was extremely aggrieved, and there was already a crying tone in her voice.

Murong Jun originally implicated Lin Yingxiang because of Lin Yingxue's attitude, but at this time, seeing Lin Yingxiang's aggrieved look, his expression eased a little, "In the future, without my permission, you are not allowed to touch anything of mine privately." ”

Murong Jun turned around and brushed his sleeves away, Lin Yingxiang lowered his head and pinched the handkerchief in his hand, and finally took a few deep breaths and followed as if he was nothing.

The queen invited a lot of people to this banquet, and even the emperor came to sit down, presumably the selection of a new princess for the prince today is inevitable.

"Yingxue, come here!" As soon as Lin Yingxue arrived at the banquet, the sharp-eyed Lin Yingxin found her and hurriedly beckoned to her.

"Big sister." Seeing this, Lin Yingxue couldn't help but restrain her mood and walked up with a smile.

"Why are you so late, you've missed several good shows!" Lin Yingxin took Lin Yingxue's hand familiarly, and said to Lin Yingxue with a frown and regret.

Lin Yingxue was a little curious when she heard this, "What? Listen to the eldest sister, what interesting things happened before I came? ”

"That's not true!" Seeing Lin Yingxue asking, Lin Yingxin, who was still with a straight face, immediately began to get excited, "Did you see the woman in the pink dress?" Lin Yingxin pointed to a young woman who was smiling and smiling around the queen.

Lin Yingxue nodded to indicate that she saw it, "What's wrong?" Is there anything special about that woman? She asked, puzzled.

"There's nothing special about it, it's just that Feng Wanwan, the concubine of Uncle Yinshan, is notoriously hot and outgoing, and she shamelessly played a song of Phoenix Seeking Phoenix with the pipa to the prince in front of everyone, tsk, this kind of courage is not something that ordinary daughters can have." Lin Yingxin is a boudoir lady who has been taught since she was a child, so when she said this, there was a little bit of sarcasm in her words.

It's just that Lin Yingxue admires the actions of this young lady of the Feng family, after all, just like Lin Yingxin said, not every daughter's family can have the courage to dare to express their love for the man they like in public.

"What do the queen and the emperor think?" Lin Yingxue vaguely felt that the royal family should not choose a woman who behaved like this as 'out of line' to be the crown princess.
