Chapter 291: The King's Banquet

It is rare to have a warm sunny day in autumn, people walk on the path, and the feeling is indescribably comfortable, even Lin Yingxin, who was originally a little reluctant to come out, also showed a look of enjoyment at this time.

A few people walked slowly and leisurely towards the flower house, passing by the small lake in the backyard on the way, seeing the koi swimming happily inside, Lin Yingxue and Liu, who were walking side by side, couldn't help but slow down and began to watch.

Seeing this, the clever Yahuan quickly brought fish food, Lin Yingxue took it, walked to the lake and began to feed.

Lin Yingsheng, who was originally following Lin Yingxin's side, couldn't help but say excitedly when he saw this: "I want to feed it too, I want to feed it too!" ”

Lin Yingxue was about to turn her head and hand the fish food in her hand to Lin Yingsheng when she heard the sound, but before she could stretch out her hand, a strong force suddenly hit her waist, and Lin Yingxue's body was unstable and fell straight into the lake.

'Plop', the huge splash of water after Lin Yingxue fell into the water startled everyone, and finally Liu Shi reacted first and exclaimed: "What are you doing in a daze, Yingxue has fallen into the water, why don't you go down to save people!" ”

A few of the maids and sisters who followed behind Lin Yingxin were watery, and they immediately jumped into the lake when they heard the words.

So Lin Yingxue was quickly rescued, but Lin Yingxue was originally not water-sensitive, and the water was cold in autumn, after this toss, Lin Yingxue's little face could hardly see a trace of blood.

"Yingxue, are you okay?" Liu hurriedly stepped forward to check on Lin Yingxue's situation.

Lin Yingxue didn't speak, just stared coldly at the 'culprit' who was standing not far away.

Seeing Lin Yingxue's gaze, Lin Yingsheng, who was originally indifferent, threw himself on Lin Yingxin's body and cried with a 'wow'.

Lin Yingxin originally wanted to blame Lin Yingsheng for two sentences, but seeing Lin Yingsheng crying so sadly, her heart softened suddenly, "Good boy, don't cry, don't cry, sister knows that you didn't mean it...... Don't cry ......"

If someone else did such a thing, I am afraid that without Lin Yingxue opening her mouth, the Liu family would send it away, but it was a child who was not yet ten years old who did it to her.

No one believes that a child would do such a thing on purpose, and naturally no one will care about a child.

"Don't go to the flower room, quickly help Yingxue go back to freshen up, and then tell the kitchen to prepare ginger soup." Among so many people at the moment, I am afraid that the only one who cares about Lin Yingxue the most is the Liu family.

Lin Yingxue stood up tremblingly with the support of Yahuan, she turned her head to look in the direction of Lin Yingsheng, and saw Lin Yingsheng, who was covering her face and crying, as if she felt something, moved her little hand and showed a smug smile to Lin Yingxue.

- Malice never knows age.

"Ahem......" fell into the water for a short time, but when she walked back in wet clothes along the way, Lin Yingxue was still a little cold.

"Come, drink this bowl of ginger soup. I will stay in King Jing's Mansion tonight, and I will go back tomorrow when I am better. Lin Yingxin and Lin Yingling didn't come, and they didn't know where they went, only Liu, who had been caring about Lin Yingxue, personally brought the ginger soup.

"Thank you, Mother." Lin Yingxue took the ginger soup and poured it into her stomach, and when the ginger soup bottomed out, Lin Yingxue only felt that her eyes were astringent, as if the ginger soup she had just drunk had turned into water and was about to overflow from her eyes.

"Silly boy, what are you doing so politely to your mother?" Liu intimately wiped the soup stains on Lin Yingxue's mouth.

Lin Yingxue threw herself into Liu's arms like a child - some people are like this, even if the enemy's knife is on her neck, she is not necessarily afraid, but when someone cares about her grievances, she will become vulnerable.

"Silly boy, what's the matter...... Liu said, but his expression was extremely doting.

"It's nothing, it's just a little tired." Lin Yingxue shook her head, and she forced her back before the tears fell.

But just when the mother and daughter were enjoying this rare warmth, the big girl next to Lin Yingxin walked in with a frown.

"Fifth Miss, Madam." Hua Rong blessed her body, her expression was serious, and she seemed to have something important to say.

"What's wrong?" Lin Yingxue sat down again, and there was no trace of weakness on her face.

"Miss Hui, Mrs., the emperor is awake." As soon as Hua Rong's words fell, the whole room fell silent.

"Isn't that a good thing? Why are you sad? After a moment of shock, Lin Yingxue quickly asked calmly.

"Yes, the emperor's awakening is naturally a great joy, but just a decree was sent in the palace to urgently summon all the princes and King Jing into the palace...... The princess said that looking at this posture, I am afraid that it will be ......"

I'm afraid that the emperor can't do it, so he's busy explaining the future?

Lin Yingxue's face also began to become heavy, and after a long while, she spoke again: "Okay, you go and tell the eldest sister that I know, and also, once there is any new news in the palace, tell me as soon as possible." ”

"Yes." Hua Rong replied and hurriedly stepped back to reply.

"Yingxue......" Liu looked at Lin Yingxue's worried face, and held Lin Yingxue's hand full of worry.

After that, the entire Jingwang Mansion seemed to be shrouded in a tense atmosphere for a whole afternoon, and it was not until it was dark that King Jing returned to the palace, and Murong Jun came back with King Jing.

"Why are you here too?" As soon as King Jing returned to the house, he went to find Lin Yingxin, if Murong Jun didn't come, Lin Yingxue would naturally have to go over, but now that Murong Jun is here, she doesn't have to go to Lin Yingxin to inquire about the news.

"I heard that you accidentally fell into the water, where can you rest assured." Murong Jun scratched Lin Yingxue's nose, and the inky eyes were so gentle that they seemed to be overflowing.

When Lin Yingxue heard Murong Jun's words, she was happy in her heart, but somehow she remembered that Murong Jun and Lin Yingxiang were in the same room today, so a faint astringency rose in her heart.

"I'm fine, but what's going on with the emperor?" Lin Yingxue suppressed the bitterness in her heart and asked about business.

Speaking of this, Murong Jun's expression became solemn, "My father's situation is not very good. Today, my father summoned me and my fifth brother and others into the palace, and named me the king of Qi, the fifth brother as the king of Rui, and named Uncle Wang as the regent, and allowed Uncle Wang to stay in the imperial city to assist the future new emperor in managing the government. ”

"This ...... The emperor arranged it in such a hurry, but ...... "The body is not good?" Lin Yingxue didn't ask the latter sentence, but Murong Jun already understood what Lin Yingxue meant.

Murong Jun nodded, and said with a heavy expression: "Father's time is running out, and it can be said that he is arranging the aftermath now, and what Father means is that Meng Yi will be taken down in one fell swoop when the banquet is held in a few days!" ”

Really. Lin Yingxue began to be a little nervous for some reason, "Meng Yi is not an easy person to deal with, today the emperor summoned you into the palace, I'm afraid there is no him among them, it's hard to guarantee that he won't be guarded." ”

"There's no way around it." Murong Jun frowned, "Now that Meng Yi's power has been formed, if we don't do it again, in the future, my father will drive the crane west, and I am afraid it will be even more difficult for us to move Meng Yi." ”

"Then when the day comes, you have to be careful." Lin Yingxue grabbed the hem of Murong Jun's clothes, her eyes full of worry.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of it." Murong Jun helped Lin Yingxue tuck the corners of the quilt, and then grabbed Lin Yingxue's hand and put it back in the quilt, "I'm afraid I'll be a little busy these days, I can't come to see you, you have to take care of yourself, I don't want to hear any more news of your illness or injury." ”

"Yes, Third Highness." Looking at Murong Jun, who was nagging more and more, Lin Yingxue replied helplessly.

"Well, then you have a good rest, I'll go first." Murong Jun gave Lin Yingxue a gentle kiss under her forehead, and then got up and walked out of the room.

Looking at the room that became quiet in an instant, Lin Yingxue's eyes gradually became deeper.

In the next few days, Murong Jun really didn't show up again, until it was the day of the king banquet.

This banquet is very important, and the ministers ranked first in the court are all among the banquets, as are Lin Yingxue and other female dependents with titles.

Miaoqin got up early in the morning to help her clean up, looking at herself in the mirror as if she had changed into a person, Lin Yingxue felt an indescribable sense of tension in her heart.

"Miss, let's have a cup of tea and relax." Miaoqin saw that Lin Yingxue had been sitting in front of the dresser in a daze, so she couldn't help but bring tea over.

Lin Yingxue reached out to pick up the tea handed over by Miaoqin, but she didn't think that her sweaty palms were extraordinarily slippery, and just after she took over, the green porcelain cup fell to the ground with a 'click' and became a pile of fragments.

"Miss, are you alright? Is it hot? Miaoqin was startled and hurriedly came forward to check on Lin Yingxue's situation.

Lin Yingxue shook her head, but looking at the debris all over the ground, she had a faint bad premonition in her heart.

Let's hope all the best.

After entering the palace, it was close to noon, because she remembered Murong Jun's instructions, so Lin Yingxue specially brought Leng Yue with her when she entered the palace today, so that if something unexpected happened for a while, Leng Yue would definitely be able to protect her.

"I don't know how it will turn out in a while." Lin Yingxue looked around and didn't see Murong Jun's figure, but Fang Mengru saw her and walked towards her.

Although Lin Yingxue had no bottom in her heart, seeing Fang Mengru's worried look, she still comforted her carefully: "Don't worry, it'll be fine." ”

"I'm ......" Fang Mengru hesitated for a moment, and after seeing that no one noticed the two of them, she lowered her voice and said, "Actually, what I'm worried about is not this...... What I think is, if he really makes a move, will Brother Meng definitely die? ”

No matter what Meng Yi has done, but the other party Mengru does not owe anything to him, so let Fang Mengru watch Meng Yi die, Fang Mengru will feel a little sorry for Meng Yi.

“…… It's up to us to decide this. Lin Yingxue replied after thinking about it.

Hearing this, the last glimmer of light in Fang Mengru's eyes also dimmed, "Is it really hopeless?" Just now, Brother Meng specially looked for me and asked me if I would be sad if he died......

"What? You said that Meng Yi looked for you alone just now? Before Fang Mengru's words could be finished, she was interrupted by Lin Yingxue in a hurry, but before Lin Yingxue could ask anything, the surroundings suddenly fell silent.

The banquet began.
