Lin Yitang has always known that her daughter Bingxue is smart and very perceptive, but every time she doesn't finish speaking, she sees through it, and she is really annoyed.

"It's true that Ziyan told me, but he has always been very accurate in looking at people, I believe in his vision, if he thinks Jiang Mingche is very good, then he must be an excellent person, you won't regret marrying him."

"Really?" Feng Qingyan's heart was suddenly full of disappointment, "However, in my opinion, the reason why Mencius Yan helped Jiang Mingche say good things was because he fell in love with the big gang of Sanssoucian, not him Jiang Mingche himself. ”

"Frivolous ......" When Lin Yitang was anxious to defend himself, Feng said lightly: "The reason why Mencius Yan wants to persuade you to be a lobbyist is because he wants to form an alliance with Sanssouci and let me marry Jiang Mingche, so as to achieve a marriage, to put it bluntly, this is a political means, and I will never let people use it as a tool." ”

Feng stood up as he spoke, not wanting to stay with Lin Yitang for a moment, but as soon as he arrived at the door, he was blocked by Jiang Mingche's subordinates, so he had no choice but to turn around and paced to the window, with his back to Lin Yitang pretending to enjoy the scenery outside.

But the more she didn't let herself care, the more she thought about it, the more angry she became, Lin Yitang was definitely not a stupid and sweet person, she didn't believe that she couldn't see Mencius's thoughts, but she still came to persuade her to marry Jiang Mingche, could it be that her daughter's lifelong happiness was not as important as her man's ambition?

I can't figure it out, I really can't figure it out.

"Frivolous, I heard that you had a relationship with Young Master Jiang before, but they were separated because of a slight misunderstanding, and now that he has changed, why can't you give him another chance?" Lin Yitang began to persuade from another angle.

"I can't, because I don't like him anymore." Feng replied very simply, "Besides, we didn't separate because of a misunderstanding, it is a fact that he deceived and used me. ”

"That's all in the past, you can't ......"

"Can't!" Feng turned around frantically, the anger on his face was obvious, "There are some things that happen and you can't turn back, and the broken mirror will never be able to go back." ”

Lin Yitang really felt her resistance and anger, and didn't dare to speak out for a while, and was silent for a while before speaking again: "The real reason why you don't want to marry Jiang Mingche is actually that you have another person in mind, right?" You still can't forget the emperor? ”

"I like the emperor, but even if I don't have a sweetheart, I won't marry Jiang Mingche, I won't marry someone I don't love," Feng stared at each other's eyes wildly, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, "When you were forced to marry my father, after so many years of depression, you know the pain, why do you want to force me to follow in your footsteps?" Are you really my mother? ”

These words seemed to have turned into a hand invisibly, grabbing Lin Yitang's heart fiercely, making her feel guilty, yes, does she want her daughter to live like she used to?

"If you have nothing else to do, please leave." Feng lightly gave the order to evict the guests.

Lin Yitang was very conflicted at this time, and he really didn't know what to say, so he had to leave first.

"You take care of yourself, I'll come back to see you in two days."

Feng ignored her and looked out the window, stunned.

Sanssouci Gate and Liuyun Palace are secretly colluding with Mu Fengyan at the same time, and now that the two of them have also begun to communicate secretly, there must be some conspiracy, what can unite them is only the word interest, and what will this interest be?

After leaving the Yuhong Restaurant, Lin Yitang returned to the Lin Mansion, perhaps because of a wild conversation with Feng, which aroused the guilt in her heart, and she has been absent-minded since then.

Just as he was in a trance, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

The person outside pushed the door in, with a slight smile on his face, it was Mencius Yan who had just come from Mengfu.

"Ziyan? How did you get here? Lin Yitang asked happily.

Mencius Yan strode over, gently holding her hands, and then the two came to sit at the table.

"I want to see you, come and talk to you in my free time, why do I see that your face is not very good, is it uncomfortable? I'm going to call a doctor? ”

Lin Yitang hurriedly grabbed him: "No, I'm fine, don't be so nervous, this morning, I've seen frivolity." ”

"Oh?" Mencius Yan's eyes widened slightly, "How is it?" Was she convinced by you? ”

"Nope." Lin Yitang shook his head, "That girl has a good idea, and what she makes up her mind will not change easily, and I can't persuade her, and besides, I also think that since she has no intention of being rash against Young Master Jiang, then don't force it well, I don't want her to be like me back then, you understand?" ”

Mencius Yan groaned for a moment and sighed: "I know that you feel sorry for your daughter, but now whether she marries Jiang Shaozhu or not is no longer a matter of her personal wishes, it is related to the survival of Liuyun Palace, the Lin family and even the Meng family." ”

"What do you say?" Lin Yitang was instantly confused.

"Liuyun Palace and Prince Jin join forces, it is a grasshopper on a rope, if Prince Jin does not succeed, we will also suffer, and you are the daughter of the Lin family and my wife, even if the Lin family claims not to conspire with Prince Jin, the emperor will not believe it."

Mencius Yan said with a solemn expression, his right hand gently caressing the long hair on Lin Yitang's back.

"What does this have to do with Sanssouci Gate?"

"Of course, Sanssouci is the largest sect in the rivers and lakes, and it is inextricably linked with other sects, as long as it gets the support of Sanssoucian, it is equivalent to having the support of most of the rivers and lakes, and it will be a great help for Prince Jin to rise up in the future."

At this time, Mencius Yan frowned again, and his face was worried, "But if Sanssouci surrenders to the imperial court, Prince Jin will have a great loss, and the possibility of success is half smaller, so we must pull Sanssouci over." ”

Lin Yitang was not without brains, thought for a while, and said suspiciously: "However, Sanssouci has a deep grudge with the imperial court, not to mention that the imperial court will not necessarily let go of Sanssoucian, even Sanssouci will not be easy to work, right?" ”

"Indeed." Mencius Yan nodded at first, and then shook his head, "However, Jiang Louyue, the eldest lady of the Sanssouci Gate, is devoted to the emperor, and she will definitely not watch the Sanssouci Gate fight with the emperor, it is said that this Miss Jiang has already begun to lobby the master of the Sanssouci Gate to make peace with the imperial court." ”

"The Jiangmen lord and his wife have always been the most fond of this daughter, and their love for her is even more than that of their son, in case the emperor marries Jiang Louyue and becomes an in-law relationship with Sanssoucian, the Jiangmen lord will definitely turn to assist the emperor for the sake of his daughter, and wipe out our anti-court gangs."

"Is there such a thing?" Lin Yitang didn't know that Jiang Louyue liked Mu Liancheng, nor did he know Mu Liancheng's personality, and he didn't expect Mencius Yan to lie to him, so he was convinced of these words, and there was a feeling of entanglement and panic in his heart.

The relatives of the Lin family and Mencius Yan are all things she can't lose, but she can't completely ignore her mind.

What should she do?

"Yitang, it's not that I have to force you, it's just that now that it's happened, there is really no other way." Mencius Yan said in a tone full of guilt, "I hope you don't blame me for this." ”

Lin Yitang smiled and said, "I understand that you have your troubles, and I won't blame you." ”

The two hugged each other and were speechless for a long time.

Capital.

In the middle of the night, Mu Liancheng stood in front of the window of the dormitory with his hands in his hands, looking up at the dark night outside, his sword eyebrows frowned, and there was a melancholy color hidden between his eyebrows.

Two days ago, he received the news from Qin Luo, and learned that Feng Qingqi had fallen into Jiang Mingche's hands and had been transferred to Lanzhou, although he immediately sent someone to notify the local informant to pay attention and attention, but he still couldn't help but worry.

Dayou walked from outside the hall, glanced at the master who was out of his mind, and bowed his head: "See the emperor." ”

Mu Liancheng slowly came back to his senses, turned his head and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Today, two people went to the heavenly prison to rob prisoners and were captured by the guards, and they are the people of the Sanssouci Gate."

"If you deal with it according to your sin, why bother to repay me?"

"One of those two is the eldest lady Jiang Louyue of Sanssouci Gate, and her subordinates dare not dispose of it without permission, so they came to ask the emperor."

Mu Liancheng didn't react, and still said lightly: "Shut it up first." ”

"Yes." Dayou nodded and promised, "However, Jiang Louyue is clamoring to see you......"

"Nope."

"She said she had news for you."

"Oh?" Mu Liancheng raised his eyebrows slightly, his deep eyes finally fluctuated slightly, and after thinking for a while, he said: "Then bring someone here, I want to hear what she has to say." ”

So, the next morning, after the morning dynasty was over, Dayou took Jiang Louyue to the side hall of the imperial study.

"The people's daughter meets the emperor." Jiang Louyue knelt on the ground, although she lowered her head, she couldn't help but secretly raise her eyes to look at Mu Liancheng who was sitting on the top, and her heartbeat also accelerated.

Although I haven't seen this person for so long, the affection for him in my heart has not only not diminished, but has deepened.

Of course, the tension at this moment is not only due to facing her sweetheart, but also because when she saved Jiang Mingche, she stabbed Feng lightly, afraid that he would settle accounts with her.

Mu Liancheng looked down at Jiang Louyue, waved his hand and motioned for the others to go down, and then spoke: "The prison is closed only by the two little minions of the Sanssouci Gate, and they can actually work for you, the eldest lady, to come to the rescue in person, it seems that you people from the Sanssouci Gate are quite affectionate?" ”

Jiang Louyue heard the doubts and ridicule in his words, her heart was cold, and she replied with lowered eyes: "Everyone in Sanssouci Gate is my brothers and sisters, someone is in trouble, of course I should try to rescue it." ”

Mu Liancheng sneered, the thumb of his right hand slowly rubbed the armrest of the chair, his eyes were bottomless, and he pondered for a moment and asked, "You said that you have news of Feng Qing's madness, but is it true?" ”

Jiang Louyue slowly raised her head, looked straight at him, and replied with the corners of her lips lightly: "Yes, the emperor must not know the news that Feng Qingyan has gone to Lanzhou with my eldest brother, right?" ”
