However, Gu Manni didn't think so, this second brother with the same father and mother was surnamed Gu Bufake, but his heart was towards Lin Ruo! finally relied on Lin Ruo, with an official position and military merits, how can this second brother still have the Gu family in his heart?

It's a pity that Gu Ting is iron-hearted this time, no matter how much Gu Manni tears in front of her, no matter how much she gritted her teeth secretly, she refused to let go.

I have to say that Gu Shangshu has lost his holy family in front of the emperor for nearly ten years, but he can still entrench himself in the position of the official book, which is really something that people have to praise.

It's a pity that this cautious and treacherous city government has not been inherited from Gu Manni at all.

And the daughter who has more city government, more means, and more pleasing to the emperor and the queen mother than him is what he hates, and at the same time, she is incompatible with the Gu family.

I can only sigh, creation makes people!

Emperor Mingzong's great eunuch Chen Guan was full of smiles and waited for Lin Ruo and Li Yan at the door of the imperial study.

Li Yan has no official position, so he naturally wants to salute Chen Gonggong. Chen Guan returned the salute with a smile, and then smiled all over his face, congratulating Lin Ruodie.

"Grandpa Chen, ...... are you?"

"Our family is congratulating Princess Rong, three joys are coming!"

"Three joys?" Lin Ruo's eyes widened and asked with a smile, "In addition to the victorious return of the prince, what other good news is there?" Please also ask Chen Gonggong to mention it. ”

"Don't dare, don't dare!"

Chen Guan quietly took the purse handed over by Lin Ruo, and the heavy weight made the smile on his face deeper. The left and right were acquiesced by the emperor, and Chen Guan simply confided with Lin Ruo.

"The floods in Shangyu have finally settled, and the displaced people have resettled, which is a double joy. The crown prince and the new prefect of Shangyu are in the imperial study, and the prince Zhang presents his love to the emperor, and wants to thank the princess in person for the gift of food and pictures. ”

Lin Ruo smiled lightly: "This is the emperor's grace, the prince's discernment, and Lord Zhang's dedication to his duties, so that the people of Shangyu can survive the natural disaster smoothly." Minhui is just doing her best, how dare you take credit! ”

"The princess is too modest!" Chen Guan smiled, lowered his voice, and added meaningfully, "That Master Zhang is really a real person......

Chen Guan has been by Emperor Mingzong's side for decades, and when it comes to figuring out the holy will, it is estimated that no one can compare to him. The sentence he deliberately added was naturally not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

With other people's short hands, Chen Guan is not anyone's "filial piety" will reach out and take it.

With the king and the tiger, you have to leave yourself some more back roads.

Gonggong Chen is exquisite, and his favor is not good to owe, but he knows better that Princess Rong's favor is more valuable.

Lin Ruo thought about it a few times, and then understood the meaning of Chen Guan's words: Although Master Zhang, who followed the crown prince, had quite a lot of political achievements in Shangyu Zhishui, he was not as "real" as it seemed on the surface. In front of Emperor Mingzong, the first credit for controlling the water was attributed to the Lin family, who had been pushed to the forefront in recent days, whether it was an enemy or a friend, it was really good not to say.

However, it was also because Chen Guan didn't know the intersection between Zhang Xu and Lin Ruo, so he kindly reminded him.

Lin Ruo nodded knowingly, with a little more sincere gratitude in his eyes.

"And this third joy," Chen Guan continued with a smile, "In the good news sent by the prince, it is mentioned that Dai Guo is willing to dedicate the gold mine in Mingsha Mountain in Danzhou to the emperor, and is willing to pay tribute to our court. Previously, the princess made a 'military order' in front of the emperor, but now she has returned with a full load, isn't it a joy? ”

These three joys are actually within Lin Ruo's expectations, but people must always learn to be more restrained, appropriately publicized, occasionally clumsy, rarely confused, and advance and retreat to a certain extent, so that people who think they are in control of her destiny can rest assured.

"There is Lao Chen's father-in-law to mention it."

"The princess is gracious, please."

Chen Guan had a smile on his face, and bowed down to lead Lin Ruo and Li Yan into the imperial study. Princess Rong, who is so thorough at this point, accepted his affection, isn't it something that makes him happy!

"Your Majesty, Princess Rong and Gongzi Li will bring it."

Although Chen Guan's voice was lowered, it still sounded a little sharp.

Lin Ruo carried the hem of her skirt, knelt on the ground, and said loudly: "Minhui knocks on the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live." Knock on His Royal Highness the Prince, Chitose Chitose. ”

Li Yan did not hesitate, Lin Ruo moved together, he followed the prostrate head and said respectfully: "Grass people Li Yan, knock on the emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live." Knock on His Royal Highness the Prince, Chitose Chitose. ”

"Get up."

Emperor Mingzong's voice sounded pleasant, but Lin Ruo, who often accompanied the monarch, felt a hint of vigilance.

"Thank you for your grace."

Lin Ruo and Li Yan got up one after another and stood aside.

"Li Yan, Li Huaijin."

Emperor Mingzong looked at Li Yan and took a moment to go over his name.

Li Yan hurriedly knelt down, lowered his eyebrows and lowered his head, and waited for the follow-up.

"Don't be so restrained," Emperor Mingzong motioned for people to get up, and said leisurely, "The person who can make Scholar Chen pick is not an ordinary nerd!" A good thing that others can't ask for, Li Huaijin, how could you dare to live up to Scholar Chen's painstaking cultivation at the beginning? ”

"If you go back to the emperor, the grass people don't dare. Among the twists and turns, please ask the emperor to forgive me. ”

"Oh?" Emperor Mingzong raised his eyebrows lightly, "Let's hear it." ”

"Yes, the grass people obey." Li Yan bowed and bowed, bowed his head and replied, "In the past, thanks to Elder Chen's love and appreciation for the grass people, as a student, it was a great luck. However, when the grass people went home that day, they heard a sentence that made the grass people think for a long time, so they made this choice. ”

Li Yan's words aroused the curiosity of Emperor Mingzong: "What do you say? ”

"The grass people are brave, I beg the emperor to give the grass people a grace, if the next words have a collision with the emperor, please ask the emperor to be lenient and forgive."

"That sounds familiar!" Emperor Mingzong chuckled lightly, and glanced at Lin Ruo with a smile, "Dare to be sensitive, ask for a favor first, let me forgive her for her innocence, I learned from you, right?" ”

Lin Ruo smiled slyly and said casually: "The emperor is wise! However, Brother Li's words were not pondered by himself. ”

"Who did you learn it from?"

"If you go back to the emperor, the height of the temple and the distance of the rivers and lakes, most of them follow two principles." Lin Ruo's face had a delicate smile, which made people look very angry, "First, it's called 'Etiquette is not strange', and second, it's called 'Stretch out your hand and don't hit the smiling person'." Therefore, with such a sentence and a high hat, it is really a disaster from the mouth, and it will not be impossible to get off the stage. ”

"Really?" Emperor Mingzong glanced at Lin Ruo meaningfully, "The high hat you brought to me made me have to listen to Li Yan's reason, and I had to give this grace again." Such a dilemma, it seems, I can't get off the stage a little, right? ”
