Lin Jinjun followed his sister to her yard and was invited into the house to sit down.

"Brother, what's going on with the spirit core?"

Lin Zhuohua poured a glass of water for his eldest brother, and then frowned and asked. It's not that she doesn't believe in her brother's character, but she also has to ask.

Lin Jinjun mentioned the spirit core, and his face turned dark: "How do I know, I haven't touched her at all." I haven't seen her since you took her away. ”

Since his sister said those words to him last time, he realized after thinking about it that what he did with good intentions made the woman he liked unhappy. Since then, he has not seen the spirit core.

Even if she once asked someone to send something, he directly asked the subordinates around him to share it.

"But I asked my mother, and she said that the spirit core said that one day you drank too much......"

She told her eldest brother what Lingxin had said, and then waited for him to answer.

Lin Jinjun was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then fell into deep thought. After a long time, he said with a calm face: "There was indeed a day, but everything was normal when I woke up. ”

If it was true that he had anything with the spirit core, no matter how well she cleaned up, she would definitely leave traces, and if she wanted to marry him, she shouldn't leave any traces.

Lin Zhuohua pursed her lips when she heard this, she believed that his brother should have nothing to do with Lingxin. But whether the spirit core was used by someone, or whether he was calculating the national government with that person, then I don't know.

"Brother, do you want to go and see the spirit core?"

Lin Jinjun wanted to go over and have a look, but when he heard his sister's words, he dispelled this idea.

"No, everything will wait for her to give birth to this child."

Anyway, he can be sure that the child is not his, but now he can only wait for her to give birth to the child and make a blood confession.

"I'm going to find Jiayan in a while, will you go?"

Lin Zhuohua shook his head, his brother went to coax Sister Qin, didn't she go as a light bulb in the past?

The two siblings chatted for a while, all around the spirit core, and Lin Zhuohua even told Lin Jinjun all his guesses, asking him to pay more attention secretly.

Lin Jinjun's face showed some solemnity: "If the people behind it are all calculating the Guogong Mansion, then we must be optimistic about this spirit core." can't let her have anything, otherwise once she has an accident, I'm afraid that there are a hundred mouths in our Guogong Mansion that can't explain it clearly. ”

"My brother has grown a lot in this time, and now he can think of coming here."

My eldest brother doesn't know anything about these conspiracies and tricks, and it can be said that he is a very straightforward group, and now that he can think of these, he has really made a lot of progress.

Lin Jinjun showed a proud look when he heard this: "This was all given to me by Jiayan, she is really powerful." ”

He still knows himself very well, Qin Jiayan is beautiful and powerful, the key is that he still likes her. It would be the best for him to be able to marry a wife like her.

Looking at his eldest brother like that, Lin Zhuohua smiled in his heart, it seems that Sister Qin is really powerful, and it has only taken her eldest brother into custody.

"Okay, I'll go find Jiayan first. If anything happens to you, let someone come to me. ”

After Lin Jinjun finished speaking, he got up and left in a hurry.

Lin Zhuohua twitched the corners of his mouth, it seems that his eldest brother doesn't want her as a sister if he has a daughter-in-law.

She was the only one left in the room, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, because she had to keep the New Year at night. Lin Zhuohua was ready to take a nap, but he couldn't stay up at night to sleep.

She lay on the bed, looking at the familiar carved top of the bed. Li Zeyi's face couldn't help but appear in his mind, and he didn't know what he was doing about it.

Li Zeyi, who was worried, was sitting in the queen mother's bedroom at this time, looking at his father who was talking to the queen mother above.

Because today is the New Year, all the royal people gathered in the Queen Mother's Cining Palace to pay New Year's greetings to the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother looked at a room full of people and had a little headache. But because they are all royal relatives, she can only deal with it mentally.

"The queen mother is a little tired?"

The emperor is a filial person, he saw that the queen mother's brows were slightly frowned, and his eyebrows were dyed a little tired, and he hurriedly asked.

The Queen Mother smiled when she heard this: "The mourning family is fine, and the mourning family is very happy to see that you are all good." ”

The queen sat on the side, and after hearing the queen mother's words, she smiled and said, "The queen mother is happy, and we are also happy." During the time you were away from the palace, everyone missed you very much. ”

The Queen Mother was in a good mood when the queen said it, and said with a smile: "The mourning family finally knows who Zhuohua's little mouth like smeared honey looks like, it turns out to be like the queen." ”

Speaking of her little niece, the smile on the queen's face became more and more sincere: "Look at what the queen mother said, Zhuohua's girl can make the queen mother happy, that is her blessing." ”

When the Queen Mother heard this, she looked at the queen, pondered for a moment and asked, "This is the end of the year, and the girl will be thirteen years old, and she will be in time next year." It was the prince's fault last time, and this time the mourning family will definitely find a good family for her when she comes back. ”

The prince sat down, and when he heard the Queen Mother's words, his heart chuckled. He didn't like the Queen Mother very much, but now I'm afraid he is even more disliked.

Hmph, it's all to blame on Lin Zhuohua. But she is really powerful, and she can be liked by the Queen Mother.

The emperor also nodded when he heard this, but his eyes swept over Li Zeyi, who was sitting below, intentionally or unintentionally.

"What the queen mother said is that this time our royal family owes that girl, and we should really make up for it. She withdrew from the prince, and I am afraid that a few people will dare to come to the door to propose marriage. However, I heard that Mrs. Fu Cheng asked to marry that girl for her sister-in-law. ”

Prime Minister Fu Cheng has a lot of say in the court, and the emperor also believes in him, it can be said that the concubine of the Fu family is also a popular husband in the circle of noble women in Beijing, if Prime Minister Fu asks for him, he is really not easy to refuse.

Li Zeyi's brows furrowed without a trace, the Fu family and the Lin family almost tore their faces because of Fu Mingxuan's matter, and his family's request to marry a little girl was obviously not well-intentioned.

"The mourning family heard that the Fu family's sister-in-law is a good one, his literary style is very good, and he is also supportive, and he is a rare gentle gentleman."

The queen mother's impression of Prime Minister Fu is not bad, although she is cunning, she is very loyal to the royal family. The son-in-law he taught should be good.

"That being the case, after the Mourning Family summoned Zhuohua into the palace to ask her what she meant, if she is also willing, the emperor can give her a marriage."

The corner of the emperor's eyes swept to his son's not very good-looking face, and his heart was relieved for a while, it was the first time he saw his own squishy son.

"That's a good idea, then it's going to be hard for the queen mother."

The queen sat on the side and listened to the two of you, you look at me and say a word, her aunt is here, is it really good not to ask her opinion? However, the queen mother did not immediately ask the emperor to give her marriage, but prepared to summon Zhuohua in after the year to ask her own opinion.

"The queen is the little girl's aunt, so let's help check more when the time comes."

The Queen Mother turned her head to look at the queen who was sitting quietly beside her, and said softly.

Although this successor is from a merchant, he doesn't need to be poor in all the family girls, and the most important thing is that the means are sharp, which can deter these concubines in the harem and make the harem stable.

"Yes, Queen Mother."

Li Zeyi looked at the few people above talking, but he was thinking in his heart. The Fu family dared to propose marriage to his little girl, but they were really impatient. It seems that Fu Xiang still has the heart to calculate the Guogong Mansion, which can be seen that he is too idle.

Hmph, go back and ask someone to find something to do for him. Thinking of receiving some news about the eldest son of the Fu family, a sneer curled up at the corner of his mouth.

The brothers, friends and brothers of the palace faction are very harmonious in front of the emperor and the queen mother.

When he left the queen mother's palace, the emperor looked at Li Zeyi and said softly: "You come with me." ”

Li Zeyi wanted to go out of the palace to be a good little girl, and then return to the palace at night, but before he left, he was stopped by his father.

I had no choice but to follow my father to the imperial study, and the emperor would seal the pen on the fifth day of the New Year to the new year, and rarely went to the imperial study again.

At this time, there were only Li Zeyi and the emperor in the imperial study, and he leaned lazily on the chair. Raising his head to look at the emperor sitting behind the table, he asked.

"Father, what is the matter with you calling your sons over?"

"What do you think of that little girl of the Lin family? I can tell you bluntly that if Fu Xiang really finds me here, I will not refuse him. ”

Li Zeyi frowned when he heard this, his father would not joke about this kind of thing, he pursed his lips.

"Since my father has seen that his son likes Lin Zhuohua, why did Fu Xiang come to ask for it, and you still have to agree?"

"Sure enough, I guessed right, you like that little girl."

The emperor laughed, his original serious appearance changed, and he laughed heartily.

"Is my father bombing his son?"

If Li Zeyi can't see that his father is bombing himself at this time, then he is really a fool.

When did his father become so disgusted?

"Haha, yes. How about it, do you want your father to marry you? I see that little girl is good, now it's just the Fu family thinking about her, if there are more people thinking about her in the future, aren't you afraid that she will be snatched away? ”

Li Zeyi pursed his lips, he was really not afraid. Since his little girl has accepted him now, as long as he doesn't do anything to hurt her heart, she will definitely not choose anyone else.

It's just that what the father said makes sense, the little girl will only get better and better in the future, so he can rest assured that he can set people down first.

His slender peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly, and after a while, he knelt on the ground: "The minister asked his father to marry his son and Lin Zhuohua." ”

The emperor nodded when he heard this, but still spoke: "But you better talk to her first and see her opinion." ”

Li Zeyi was a little surprised, he didn't expect his father to think of this. It can be seen that the father's impression of the little girl is good, and he is naturally happy.

"Father is right, the son should ask her opinion first."

The emperor was very relieved in his heart, looking at his son, who was now at the age of getting married. This is the child he had with the woman he loves the most, and it is the child he is most looking forward to. Now that he has someone he likes, he doesn't want his son to make the mistake he made at the beginning.

He should be very happy to be able to marry the woman he loves.

Li Zeyi looked at his father and looked at his face in a daze, he sighed, it seems that his father is thinking about his mother again. It's just that no matter how much my father regrets it now, he can't let his mother come back to life.

"Erchen went back first."

The emperor came back to his senses and waved his hand: "Well, you go back and rest." ”

My son's health has not been very good, and he is afraid that he will be too tired when he keeps watch at night, so he asks him to go back and rest first.

Li Zeyi walked out of the imperial study and looked at the white expanse outside. The snow on the branches of the trees seemed to bend the branches. He looked back at the imperial study, and always felt that his father seemed to be a little older.

After a long time, he collected his gaze and walked in the direction of the palace gate.

The crown prince returned to the East Palace with a clear look of pleasure on his face.

Mu Wanyu untied the cloak for him, and asked with some curiosity, "What makes the prince so happy?" ”

Now her body is getting better and better, and the baby is stable. Mama Dong has been watching her eat and wear things again, and there is nothing else that can make her slip the tire.

"The Fu family proposed to the Lin Guogong Mansion and wanted to ask to marry Lin Zhuohua."

The corners of his mouth rose slightly, since he didn't marry Lin Zhuohua, then Li Zeyi or other princes naturally couldn't marry her. Otherwise, wouldn't the Lin Guogong Mansion and the Jing family have to stand behind others, this is not what he wants to see.

But now the Fu family is asking to marry Lin Zhuohua, if it happens. As long as he can pull Fu Xiang to his side, the Lin family and the Jing family will naturally stand behind him.

He could see that Li Zeyi was different from Lin Zhuohua from other women, and his third brother should like Lin Zhuohua.

Knowing this, he would definitely not let him get his wish.

When I was hunting in the autumn before, I asked the prince of the Jin Kingdom to ask to marry Lin Zhuohua, I thought it was a matter of nine out of ten, but unfortunately my father refused.

This time, since his father said that if Fu Xiang personally told him, he probably would not refuse.

Mu Wanyu glanced at the prince when she heard this, but in fact, she couldn't understand why the prince had to get rid of King Yi. In her opinion, several other princes were more threatening than this one.

This is a well-known gentleman, who never goes to the court, and he doesn't do much errands.

"Your Royal Highness, the concubine thinks that if the lord of Ronghua marries into the Fu family, won't it make the Fu family like a tiger. Now that Fu Xiang's power is already very great, it will be more difficult for His Highness to win over Fu Xiang at that time, right? ”

The prince retracted his thoughts, and when he heard the words, he couldn't help but sink for a moment. He felt that Mu Wanyu's words also made some sense, Fu Xiang was cunning and cunning, and his ambition was not small.

If he is really allowed to become in-laws with the Lin family, even if he is wooed, it will be difficult to control.

He helped her lie down on the bed and took her into his arms: "Wanyu, what good ideas do you have?" ”

Mu Wanyu's cheeks flushed slightly when she heard this, probably because she was going to be a mother, and she exuded a soft glow, which made her look even more charming and charming.

"Where does the concubine understand this, she just thinks of herself and says it. His Royal Highness is wise and martial, and he must have a countermeasure in his heart. ”

The prince smiled when he heard this, and then hugged her tightly: "You rest, I will rest with you for a while, and I will go to my father's side at night." ”

Mu Wanyu nodded when she heard this, and then obediently fell into his arms and closed her eyes.

The crown prince closed his eyes, but he kept thinking about how to prevent Li Zeyi from marrying Lin Zhuohua and the Fu family's marriage proposal. However, as long as Fu Xiang does not ask his father, the Lin family will probably never agree to this marriage.

Guogong Mansion

Lin Zhuohua opened his eyes and saw Li Zeyi sitting on the edge of the bed. The slender peach blossom eyes were looking at him, full of tenderness and affection.

She rubbed her eyes, and then she was sure that the person in front of her was not hallucinating.

"Why are you here?"

Li Zeyi helped her sit up, and then put a soft pillow behind her to make her lean more comfortably.

"Today's Father's ......"

He told his little girl about the imperial study, and then asked, "What do you think of letting my father marry first?" ”

The corners of Lin Zhuohua's mouth twitched, she didn't expect the emperor to be able to do something explosive.

"I can do whatever I want."

After thinking about it, she spoke, since she recognized him. It's the same for her to marry so early and late, but when she thinks of the rotten peach blossoms like Lord Ni Yuan, she thinks that it is not bad to give marriage now, and she can put an end to Li Zeyi's rotten peach blossoms.

"Then you agreed?"

Li Zeyi's eyes lit up, and his heart was even more excited. His eyes looked at her for a moment, for fear that he had missed or misheard.

"Yes." Lin Zhuohua was a little embarrassed by him, lowered his eyelids slightly, and nodded.

Seeing her nodding, Li Zeyi became more and more excited in his heart, stretched out his hand to hold the person into his arms, and turned around twice on the ground.

Lin Zhuohua exclaimed, then instinctively hugged his neck and buried his little face in his arms. Out of the corner of his eye, he looked at him smiling like a child who got candy, and his heart was soft.

What a fool, she just agreed to let the emperor marry earlier, and he was so happy.

Lin Zhuohua listened to the somewhat violent heartbeat in his chest, and his heart was inexplicably sour.

"You let me down, and I'll be seen in a while."

The little girl's small voice came out of her arms, which made the excited Li Zeyi wake up.

He was a little embarrassed, and the roots of his ears were slightly red. Putting the person back on the bed, he coughed lightly and said, "I was a little excited just now." ”

"Fool."

Li Zeyi was not annoyed when he heard this, he was just stupid. This is probably the best gift he can receive for the New Year, thinking of this, he took out a red bag from his arms and handed it to Lin Zhuohua.

"It's your New Year's gift, I hope you'll enjoy it."

Lin Zhuohua opened the red bag, and inside was a hosta, on which was carved a phoenix, which was very beautiful.

It's just that it can be seen that the carving is not very good, but it is very aura.

"You carved it?"

Li Zeyi nodded: "Well, when I got this jade, I started carving, but because I learned it now, the carving is very slow, and the craftsmanship is not very good." Do you like it? If you don't like it, I'll give you another one? ”

Whether it is the Lin family or the Jing family, the things given to her are very delicate and rare. But this phoenix hosta made her like it very much, which was a piece of Li Zeyi's heart.

Holding the hosta, she automatically imagined him sitting at the table, holding a piece of jade and carving it carefully.

"You put it on for me."
