The prince is suspicious by nature, and Lin Youran naturally knows. All she wants is that in the prince's heart, she is not just a future princess, but a wife who is of great help to him and an ally.

Only interests can tie two people together, so she set herself as a little woman who loves the prince, but she can also help him in many things, rather than just taking care of the inner house.

After the introduction, Wu Tuo followed Mama Dong and retreated.

Lin Youran was still leaning on the prince's arms, raised his head slightly, and said softly: "Youran has already asked people to prepare the osmanthus stuffed that His Highness likes, as well as the dishes you like, such as golden silk chicken rolls, sweet and sour osmanthus fish, etc." ”

Looking at the girl with anticipation and love in her eyes, this greatly satisfied the prince's machismo. He hugged his slender waist tightly, and said in a low voice: "Okay, Lone will accompany you to eat leisurely today." ”

Lin Youran leaned softly on the prince's chest, and said softly: "You Ran likes Your Highness the most in your heart, and you also know that you are not favored in the Guogong Mansion." Prince, you insisted on asking the emperor for marriage, and now you know that you have the Gu clan behind you, and you are very happy in your heart, and you can also have a place to help His Highness. ”

The girl's voice was soft, and her tone was full of joy.

Listening to her soft words, the prince's eyes softened. The slender fingers gently brushed the broken hair on her forehead, and her voice was a little softer.

"You understand that you will be the princess and the wife of the lonely when you enter the East Palace in the future. It is naturally different from others, as long as you don't touch the bottom line of Lonely, the honor and respect that Lone should have will give you. ”

Lin Youran rubbed his head on the prince's chest, and said in a low voice: "You Ran understands, maybe You Ran can't get along well with other concubines, but as long as they don't come to calculate Youran, Youran won't do anything to them." ”

She lowered her eyes, hiding the emotion from her eyes. Since the prince said everything so clearly, she, as a smart woman, would naturally make her position clear. In this way, don't lie that you will get along well with those concubines and sisters to win the trust of the prince, anyway, she doesn't want to be a generous wife.

The prince raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, but Lin Youran's answer was beyond his expectations. On weekdays, she always looks soft, and I thought that she would get along well with those concubines in the East Palace, but this answer made him extremely satisfied.

"You have the same temperament as Yanran, I think you will get along very happily in the future."

Thinking of Mu Yanran, the prince's eyes became more and more gentle. He pinched Lin Youran's slender and white fingers, and his voice was gentle but inexplicably felt a trace of coldness.

"Lone doesn't care too much about the calculations between the women of the back house, but only children are never allowed to touch it."

The royal family pays attention to the vigorous heirs, and he can tolerate the intrigue between the women of the back house, after all, he also grew up in the palace and is used to the means of competing for favor between the concubines. It wasn't a big deal in his eyes, but there was only one thing, no matter how much they fought, they couldn't reach out to his children.

Lin Youran's heart trembled, and the fingers pinching between her fingers were very light, but it made her feel bursts of coolness spreading from her fingertips to her whole body.

"Your Highness, rest assured, leisurely and saving."

Hearing the girl's somewhat frightened voice, the prince showed a very gentle smile: "Leisurely has always been sensible, and Lone is very relieved." ”

There was a hint of oppression in the atmosphere in the room, but fortunately, a knock on the door from outside broke the oppression.

Lin Youran sat up straight from the prince's arms and said with a smile: "It should be that lunch has been delivered, go and see it leisurely." ”

The prince didn't hold her anymore, and let go of the hand that was around his slender waist.

Lin leisurely jumped off the drum, ran to the door in a few steps, stretched out his hand to push the door open, and saw Mama Dong standing outside, and his heart was relieved. With a cheerful smile on his face, he spoke.

"Bring all the food in."

Mama Dong nodded at Lin Youran, and then led the people in to put the food on the table.

When the meal was delivered, Mama Dong retreated with someone again. Only Lin Youran and the prince were left in the room, but the atmosphere with a trace of oppression before also disappeared.

Under Lin Youran's deliberate gentleness, the atmosphere gradually became ambiguous and warm.

The two of them were tired of crooked for nearly two hours before the prince left, and when he left, he took Wu Tuo with him.

Lin Youran watched the prince's carriage leave, and the whole person breathed a sigh of relief.

"Miss, let's go back too."

Mama Dong helped her back to the house, and then spoke respectfully.

Lin leisurely sat on the low couch and patted his chest with his hand.

"The prince is really the prince, and the person with the overwhelming body can't breathe."

Mama Dong smiled when she heard this: "After all, the prince is the future emperor, and he has lived in the royal family since he was a child, so this momentum is naturally not comparable to others." However, the young lady has also behaved very well, at least she has made the prince pay a lot of attention to you. ”

Hearing Dong Momo's words, although he knew that he was flattering himself, he still felt very comfortable listening to it.

"Everything is packed up, let's go."

Back at the Guogong Mansion, Lin Youran glanced in the direction of the Taoyuan where Lin Zhuohua lived, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

After two days, rumors gradually appeared in Beijing about Lin Zhuohua's illness. Some people say it's a cold, others say it's a cough, and in the end, some people speculate that it was plague.

In this era, plagues can kill people, and the most important thing is that the infection rate is very large.

The masters of the Lin Guogong Mansion were all gathered in Ningshou Yuan at this time, and the two eldest parents sat at the top.

"This is a rumor that is going to kill Zhuohua."

If it is confirmed that Zhuohua is infected with the plague, not only will it be sent to Zhuangzi, but I am afraid that even the Guogong Mansion will be sealed. Mrs. Lin's eyes were red, but she just forcibly suppressed her tears to prevent them from flowing out.

Lin Laoguo's brows furrowed tightly, and he spoke for a long time: "The person behind this is really thoughtful, and now some famous doctors have been invited to the Medical Valley to participate in the medical exchange conference. The imperial doctors in the palace couldn't see any problems, if the imperial doctors also knew that Zhuohua was a plague at this time, then they would be speechless. ”

Hearing the analysis of Lin Laoguo's mansion, everyone's faces became more and more solemn.

"In fact, as long as we can find a respected doctor to prove that Zhuohua is not infected with the cold, or that Zhuohua's illness is cured, this rumor will naturally be broken."

The second old man, Lin Shiming, pondered for a moment before slowly speaking.

"But now that the doctors who are famous for their medical skills have been invited to the Medical Valley, where can they find someone?" Lin Shihong's face was also extremely ugly, and his heart was even more angry. His baby daughter was calculated like this, don't let him know who it is, otherwise he will let the other party withdraw his skin.

"Actually, there is one person who can." The second lady Gu Zhen, who had been silent, suddenly spoke, and her words immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Who are the second siblings talking about?" When Mrs. Lin heard this, she immediately looked at her, with a bit of expectation in her eyes.

"The father of the head of the Tai Hospital, Mrs. Zhong."

Today, the head of the Tai Hospital is nearly 50 years old, and his father is 70 years old this year. It can be said that in this era, he is a very long-lived old man. The identity of the other party is sufficient, and his medical skills are indeed very powerful.

The medical skills are on par with Ning Divine Doctor, but his reputation is more vector than Ning Divine Doctor, after all, the age is there. In addition, Mrs. Zhong is a doctor with great medical ethics, and his words still have a certain weight.

"But Old Lady Zhong has long since stopped asking about the hospital."

Mrs. Zhong and the old lady all know it, but they are getting older, and now they don't come out and move around much. If you want to ask him out, I'm afraid it's not so easy.

"As long as there is a little hope, I will try it too." Lin Shihong knew that he was the least capable of the three brothers, but this time the matter involved his daughter, no matter how difficult it was, he had to invite Mrs. Zhong to come over and prove that his daughter was not infected with the plague.

The atmosphere here in Ningshouyuan is solemn, but in Taoyuan it is a different scene. happy

Emerald came in from outside and told her what she had heard.

Mu Xia's face was still a little pale at this time, she leaned on the pillow, holding a book in her hand to read. Hearing Jade's words, his brows furrowed tightly.

"I can't let Miss get infected with the plague on her back, it seems that I am going to get better as soon as possible."

Counting the days, the effect of this medicine is almost gone.

"This matter is definitely controlled by someone behind the scenes, otherwise how could anyone associate it with the plague." Onyx frowned, hateful and hateful. The person behind this is really vicious, and he wants to deduct such a pot for his own young lady.

At first, it was because she was afraid of being recognized, so Mu Xia had been taking the pill, but now she has learned a lot about the young lady from Jade and Onyx, and it is still possible to imitate it, even if it is close to people, it is difficult to recognize it.

"Let's go to Ningshou Temple." Mu Xia put down the book in his hand, then got up and got out of bed.

Jade and Onyx glanced at each other, then stepped forward to help her, and after cleaning up for her, they left the courtyard and walked towards Ningshou Temple.

Ningshou Courtyard was discussing countermeasures, when he saw Mu Xia coming over with jade and agate.

"Why are you here? Are you feeling better? When Mrs. Lin saw her daughter coming over, and when she saw her daughter's pale face, she felt distressed for a while, and hurriedly pulled her to the side and sat down.

Mu Xia showed a weak smile, and his voice was still a little hoarse: "Mother, I'm fine." It's just that I'm still a little weak, I'm a doctor myself, this disease should be cured soon, you don't have to worry about me. ”

"Did Zhuohua hear the rumors outside?" The old lady looked at her granddaughter, pondered for a moment and asked.

Mu Xia nodded, then pursed his lips and said, "In two days, my illness will be cured, and the mansion will prepare to hold a flower banquet." ”

"Are you really okay?" Mrs. Lin was stunned when she heard this, and then immediately asked. Although her daughter's face was a little pale, she always believed her daughter's words.

"It's fine." Mu Xia shook his head, showed a light smile after speaking, held Mrs. Lin's hand, and looked at Lin Shihong: "Daddy, you don't have to ask Old Lady Zhong for help." ”

Lin Shihong looked at his daughter who was like a flower, although his daughter said that her illness was fine, but he still felt angry in his heart, and he must find out who was walking in the back and rumors, and took out this evil breath for his daughter, otherwise everyone would think that the young lady of their Guogong Mansion was so easy to handle.

"Okay, Daddy listens to our little Zhuohua, but the person who spreads the rumors still has to find out, otherwise there will be one and two. My father said that there are only thieves for a thousand days, and there is no one who guards against thieves for a thousand days. ”

Lin Laoguo's Mansion glanced at his eldest son and twitched the corners of his mouth, can this sentence still be used like this? What did God teach him?

But thinking that his son is out of tune on weekdays, it's good to be able to come up with such a sentence, and I'm too lazy to correct him.

"Your father is right, the person who spread the rumors still has to find out, otherwise everyone will think that our Guogong Mansion is in everyone's hands."

Mu Xia is not Lin Zhuohua after all, pursed his lips, and didn't know how to react for a while, so he could only nod: "Then everything will be up to grandfather." ”

Anyway, Miss said that the smartest people in this family are the old lady and the old man, and it will never be wrong to listen to them.

The old man smiled with relief when he heard this, and then looked at his granddaughter lovingly: "You don't have to worry about this matter, just recuperate with peace of mind." As for holding a flower feast, just leave it to your mother and second aunt. Wait until the day of the feast, and you will appear in good health. ”

Mu Xia really didn't understand this, so he could only nod obediently. Fortunately, Lin Zhuohua was also well-behaved in front of his grandmother and grandfather, so that no one noticed any difference.

"Okay, your face is not very good, you still look a little weak, go back and rest first." Mrs. Lin felt sorry for her daughter, pinched her palm, then looked at Jade and Onyx who were standing on the side and ordered, "Help your young lady go back and take good care of her." ”

"Yes, ma'am." Jade and Onyx immediately responded respectfully, and then helped Mu Xia to leave Ningshou Temple.

Out of Ningshou Courtyard, Mu Xia's tense nerves finally relaxed, and his steps sped up a little. Back in Taoyuan, she sat on the bed before patting her chest.

"I was scared to death, but fortunately I didn't show any horses."

Jade and Onyx looked at Mu Xia's appearance, and laughed out loud: "Mu Xia, you don't have to be nervous, as long as you don't be discovered by the subordinates and the second lady." Even if Madame they find out, nothing will happen. ”

It's just that Mrs. They will worry about the safety of the lady, and when the lady comes back, I'm afraid that I will be nagged by the lady.

Mu Xia smiled when he heard this, with a bit of envy in his eyes: "Mrs. Lin and Grandpa Guo are so good to Miss, and the atmosphere of the entire Guogong Mansion is so harmonious." I used to hear that there were a lot of intrigues in the big families, so I always tensed my nerves, didn't dare to go out and walk, and hid in this courtyard and pretended to be sick. ”

Jade and Onyx glanced at each other, and they were also very glad that it was the maid next to the young lady, who was on an errand in the Guogong Mansion. If you change to someone else, it won't be so harmonious.

"Mu Xia, you can rest for a while. After all, the effect of the medicine has not passed, and your body is still quite weak now. ”

Mu Xia thought about it, nodded and didn't hesitate. I just hope it's good to hurry, but I can't let the young lady carry such a pot.

The Lin family's actions were very fast, and the news that the Guogong Mansion would hold a flower banquet in a few days immediately spread in Shangjing. Many families have received invitations, and they have released the news that the lord of Ronghua will appear healthy that day.

Feng Shuhui looked at the invitation in her hand and asked her mother: "Mother, I want to go and see Zhuohua." ”

Mrs. Feng raised her head from the account book, glanced at the invitation post, and nodded: "You weren't in Shangjing before, you just came back yesterday, you handed over the post today, go again tomorrow." ”

She didn't believe the rumors outside that Lin Zhuohua was infected with the plague at all, that girl's medical skills were so good, how could she let herself be infected with the plague, and the plague had not appeared in these years, and she had never left Shangjing, where to get infected.

Feng Shuhui snorted coldly: "I don't know which villain spread such rumors behind his back, it's really disgusting." ”

Mrs. Feng glanced at her daughter with an angry face and sighed: "Okay, don't be angry." Zhuohua's kid has an idea, and there will definitely be a solution to this matter. ”

Today's Lin Guogong Mansion can't be more low-key, but everyone seems to have forgotten. The demeanor of the old Lin Guogong back then, that was the person who even the emperor couldn't do anything about it. It's just that later, for some reason, he resigned from the official position and enjoyed his old age at home, and passed the title to the current Lin Guogong.

Feng Shuhui didn't say anything more, just thinking about what to bring to Lin Zhuohua tomorrow to make her happy.

In Fengqi Palace, the queen was lazily crooked on the chaise longue. In her arms, a snow-white Persian cat was lying on her stomach, and she caress the smooth fur with one hand.

"Queen Mother, do you want people to find out who spread such rumors?" Jinxiu stood aside with her head slightly lowered and spoke respectfully.

Hearing this, the queen raised her head, put the white cat in her arms on the ground, and then stood up with Jinxiu's hand.

"No, this matter will be resolved by the National Government. However, send someone to the Guogong Mansion to announce the decree of the palace, and the palace will come to the flower banquet in a few days. ”

Hearing the queen's words, Jinxiu was a little surprised, although the queen is the mother of a country, her noble status is not able to leave the palace at will.

"Niangniang, will the emperor agree?"

The plague can be big or small, and it is all by divine will. If the emperor believes, it is true. If the emperor doesn't believe it, then the flowers that come out are also fake.

The queen curled the corners of her mouth when she heard this: "The emperor will agree." ”

She lowered her eyes slightly, and she knew very well how high King Yi's status was in the emperor's heart. If it weren't for King Yi's poor health, with the prince's performance during this time, the prince's position might not be stable.

Jinxiu helped the queen to rest in the inner hall, and then went to arrange the things the queen ordered.

Bian Li Zeyi and the others rested for a period of time, and continued to fight after the food was sufficient. This time, he came to the border pass, just to pacify Long Rui, and he was sure to behead the head of King Long Rui under the sword.

"Lord Wang, it is most suitable for us to set up camp here, the geographical location here is easy to defend and difficult to attack." Grand Commander Feng stood in front of the large map and circled the position above.

Li Zeyi glanced at it and nodded: "Just set up camp here." ”

When the people dispersed, a man in black appeared in front of Li Zeyi: "Master, the letter from Shangjing." ”
