On the surface, among these people in the Zhaoming Palace, Lin Ruo's relationship with the royal family is the most estranged - the nominal granddaughter, the de facto niece and granddaughter, and most people don't know this identity. But in fact, the Queen Mother likes to listen to her the most. In front of the emperor and the empress, the princes and princesses were a little restrained and didn't dare to be too presumptuous, but Lin Ruo was different, the queen mother liked her most wanton.

Emperor Mingzong also likes it, and every time he sees her like this, he will think of Lin Yuan'er at the beginning.

Qu Xiaoxiang looked at Lin Ruo, who was so eloquent and pleasing the emperor and the queen mother, and felt a little envious in his heart, but also a little jealous.

Listening to Lin Ruo talk about what happened in the Beiqi camp, Emperor Mingzong suddenly said: "Don't be ashamed here, although Chong'er is powerful in this march and war, and taught you the art of war for a few days, but you are far worse than Xiaoxiang!" ”

Lin Ruo stuck out his tongue: "Your Majesty, how dare I compare with the county lord of Fengyang?" I'm just happy to see the hunt and repeat it according to the words of the prince, even if you know, you can't dismantle my platform like this! ”

Emperor Mingzong laughed loudly: "Do you think that your imperial grandmother can't hear it?" Your imperial grandmother is also from the Qu family, and my art of war is still the Meng given by the queen mother! ”

Lin Ruo was stunned for a moment, and suddenly said, "Yes, why did I forget this stubble?" Imperial grandmother, this time I really got an axe in front of Lu Ban, and played a big knife in front of Guan Gong, and talked about the art of war in front of you......"

The queen mother was also happy: "Look at this girl, when she talks, she is all in one place." ”

Seeing the queen mother's smile, Lin Ruo climbed up the pole and said, "Grandmother Huang, you are so happy, can I ask you for a reward?" ”

The Empress Dowager raised her eyebrows, nodded Lin Ruo's forehead, and scolded with a smile: "I'll just say you're a little profiteer!" Anyway, what reward do you want? ”

Lin Ruo secretly glanced at Emperor Mingzong and said cautiously, "Actually...... It's just a matter of one sentence. ”

"What?"

"Grandmother Huang, the emperor has forbidden my feet, except for the palace, the palace, and the Lin Mansion, they won't let me go anywhere else, can you make a grace and let the emperor lift my grounding?"

Emperor Mingzong raised his eyebrows: "You can go to three places here, and it's still called grounding?" ”

Lin Ruo nodded and said solemnly: "This is called 'directional grounding'. ”

The Queen Mother couldn't hold back, and laughed out loud: "'Directional grounding'? Only you, a girl, can come up with such a word! ”

Emperor Mingzong also felt amused and said, "Although I gave an order, I didn't see you take it seriously!" When you were on the first day of junior high school, didn't you go to the Temple of Mercy and Grace and then to the shop? ”

Lin Ruo's eyes widened, and he pretended to be surprised and asked, "Your Majesty, do you know all this?" It can't be what Su Boyu said, right? ”

Emperor Mingzong was noncommittal, and pretended to be majestic and said: "If you don't obey the order, you will be punished!" ”

Lin Ruo drooped his head and said, "Your Majesty, can you atone for the sake of me preparing meals for the imperial grandmother today, chatting with the imperial grandmother, and making the imperial grandmother happy?" ”

"Then, it depends on what your imperial grandmother means!"

Lin Ruo smiled all over her face, shaking the hand of the Queen Mother and coquettishly. The queen mother ate her the most, so she opened her mouth: "Okay, good, guilt, guilt." Then it's all there! ”

"No, no, no, you can't all arrive!" Lin Ruo hurriedly waved his hand, "Imperial grandmother, and my 'directional grounding' has not been solved!" Gotta save a little! ”

The Empress Dowager looked at Lin Ruo and said with a smile: "Then you have to ask the emperor, the imperial grandmother can't help you." ”

Lin Ruo pursed his lips and looked at Emperor Mingzong aggrievedly.

"Do you want to go to see the Shangyuan Lantern Festival?"

"Your Majesty, you are amazing! Just guess it! ”

Listening to the worship of the juniors, especially the admiration on Lin Ruo's face that looked like Lin Kite, Emperor Mingzong felt quite useful, and waved his hand: "Then, leave you a little credit, on the fifteenth day, you are allowed to go to the street, remember to bring sufficient guards." ”

Lin Ruo smiled, looked at Xijiao, and continued to bargain with the emperor with a smile: "Can you keep a little more?" ”

Emperor Mingzong raised his eyebrows: "What?" What other conditions do you want to negotiate with me? ”

"Don't dare, don't dare. Your Majesty, the Shangyuan Lantern Festival is so lively, I went shopping alone, a little lonely, can you ...... With Xijiao? ”

Emperor Mingzong was stunned for a moment, and glanced at Xijiao with surprise on his face, and he felt a little unbearable in his heart after all. This child used to be as active as Lin Ruo, and when Lin Ruo was not in the palace, she was the most noisy in the palace. Recently, because of the matter of the crown princess, there has been a lot of silence. After all, it wasn't her fault, and Emperor Mingzong's heart was a little loose.

"Your Majesty, after the New Year, Xijiao will be fifteen, and the ninth day will talk about marriage, and when the time comes, I will have little chance to ask her to go to the Lantern Festival together. Give me a grace! ”

Emperor Mingzong looked at Xijiao, and then at Lin Ruo, who was full of prayers, and finally nodded in agreement.

got the permission to leave the palace fifteen, and Xijiao's eyes also bloomed with brilliance.

Sure enough, just like the fourth sister-in-law said, she can really go out of the palace on the fifteenth and go to Bian'an City to watch the lights!

She looked at Lin Ruo excitedly, and Lin Ruo smiled and squeezed her eyes in response.

Xijiao also gradually became active slowly, and the two of them coaxed the queen mother to be extremely happy. However, after all, the queen mother is old, and the "family reunion" with the juniors has not been delayed too late.

It's just that the winter sky is very dark.

In previous years, Lin Ruo also accompanied the Queen Mother to chat for about a certain time, and then was escorted back to the Lin Mansion by the forbidden army arranged by the emperor. This time, there was one more Fengyang county lord Qu Xiaoxiang who left the palace, and Emperor Mingzong was not biased and arranged escorts for the two county lords.

However, the battle-hardened Lord of Fengyang politely rejected Emperor Mingzong's kindness. In this way, it seems that Lin Ruojiao is a little more pretentious.

Emperor Mingzong's face was slightly gloomy, but except for Gonggong Chen, who had been serving by his side for a long time, and Lin Ruo, who was keen, the rest of the people were unaware.

Lin Ruo said with a smile: "Your Majesty, what the county lord of Fengyang said is that mobilizing the forbidden army to escort us back to the house is too much fanfare. Why don't you let the 'Fengyang Governor' escort Princess Rong like this? ”

On the clear and crystalline eyes, but with a hint of cunning, Emperor Mingzong was stunned, knowing that it was Lin Ruo who handed over the steps, so he took the opportunity to tease: "I know that you are in love with Fengyang, and I don't want to find a better excuse." ”

Qu Xiaoxiang on the side hadn't fully understood, Lin Ruo had already smiled slyly, pulled her to thank her, and then got into the carriage happily.

Seeing that the county lord of Fengyang followed his own lady into the carriage, Youcao was also an interesting person, and followed the carriage with the maid of the county lord of Fengyang. The wheels swirled around with the wheel, and it wasn't until he left the imperial city that Lin Ruo breathed a sigh of relief, and then smiled at Qu Xiaoxiang and said, "This should be the third favor you owe me." ”
