Chapter Ninety-Nine: White Apricots
After a glass of wine, Lin Moshen said: "Although we have a relationship with ink dyeing this time, we must come back to help, but in addition, there are a few things I need to say." Let's talk about business separately another day, now let's talk about private matters, this white girl is going to stay in the Lin family for a while, mother, please take more care of it. ”
Bai Xingduo stood up obediently and said to Mrs. Lin: "My name is Xingduo, which means Xinghua Bone. This time, I followed Brother Mo Shen into Beijing, and I also came out to see the world and have a good time. I don't understand the rules of Da Zhou, if there is any rudeness, please forgive me! ”
Although people look well-behaved and speak reasonably, Bai Xingduo's whole person looks like a very jumpy feeling, and she really can't associate her with a famous lady, but like a naughty girl who is pampered by her family.
Sure enough, before she could say a few words, she revealed her true nature.
This person was brought back by Lin Moshen, and Mrs. Lin would naturally take care of it more, so she said: "It just so happens that I have a girl at home, and it is not a trouble for you to be alone, if you don't want to accompany me, an old woman, it is okay to play with your sister Moran." ”
When Bai Xingduo heard this, she immediately said excitedly: "Really? Along the way, I heard from the two elder brothers that how good and powerful Sister Mozhi is, I have long admired the name, and it is difficult to see her. Sister Moran, I'm fourteen years old this year, exactly one year younger than you, will you be my sister from now on? What do you like to play? I like to hunt on horseback the most, but I'm afraid there are not such big forests in this capital, and there are no prairies for me to race. Sister, will I take you to the grassland another day? It's fun on the prairie! ”
"Xingduo, Hugh is rude! Be quiet! Lin Moshen couldn't help but remind her in a low voice.
Even Lin Moqian said: "The girls in the capital are not allowed to be like this, look at that sister Qianxi, how good is it to sit there quietly?" If you make such noise, people will see that you are not from the Great Zhou. ”
Bai Xingduo was a little ignorant, and she didn't know why she couldn't say so much, why she couldn't play and laugh.
Lin Moran endured it for a while, but he really couldn't hold back, so he had to smile and say, "Second brother, in fact, we have already seen it, you brought back a grassland daughter from the northern grassland, right?" Which tribe's? Can there be attachment to the Great Zhou? I've been busy messing around in the capital lately, and I haven't heard of any chaos at the border, so what does it have to do with you? ”
As soon as this was mentioned, Bai Xingduo consciously shut up, which was more effective than Lin Moshen's warning.
Lin Moran could see that the white apricot blossoms had something unspeakable, and the two brothers also signaled with their eyes, not wanting to say more, so Lin Moran changed the topic and said: "The daughters on this grassland are lively and active by nature, not as good as the ladies in our capital, who are raised in the boudoir, not to mention hunting, riding a horse is presumptuous." ”
Bai Xingduo also knew that she was going to restrain her temperament, so she said: "Anyway, there is little open space in this capital, even if there is a horse to ride, it is not happy, so let's change to a quieter way of playing." It's just that I don't know what my sisters like to play, if it's not difficult, teach me too? ”
"You'll talk about it later. Mo Ran, you were locked up this time, apart from His Royal Highness the Prince, but there are other reasons? Lin Moshen asked.
Lin Moran thought about it and said, "What else can there be besides provoking the imperial power?" I don't think that I, or our Lin family, have anything worthy of His Majesty's calculations. ”
Lin Moshen didn't pursue this question again, but Lin Moran took it to heart, still talking and laughing with people on the surface, but muttering in his heart, this stupid emperor shouldn't really be calculating anything about her, right? But what exactly is she worth calculating? If you want to say that you are a disciple of Tianshui Palace, then Senior Sister Qianxi is also a disciple of Tianshui Palace, and Xu Shenhe is still the son of the master, aren't they more valuable than themselves?
Lin Moran put his eyes on Lin Zhengtang, if Tianshui Palace is not the most important reason, then the other reason is mostly related to his father.
Bai Xingduo saw that no one paid attention to her, she was very bored, but fortunately, Tao Liyan, who couldn't bear the loneliness like her, talked to her from time to time, and explained to her a lot of doubts she saw along the way.
Lin Moshen and Lin Moqian told Lin Zhengtang and his wife about their experiences in the past five years, and what they had done at the border recently.
It's just that Lin Moran never threw himself into this lively scene again, and after drinking a few glasses of wine, he couldn't sit still anymore, so he went to the garden with the wine jug.
At this time, the moon is in the middle of the sky, although there is only half a quarter moon, but it is not bad. The flowers that bloom well during the day are closed a lot at the moment, and the occasional fragrance of flowers wafts out, which is much quieter than during the day.
Lin Moran was in a trance, when he heard someone ask, "What do you think?" So distracted? ”
As soon as Lin Moran turned around, he saw Jiang Muyuan standing behind him, and when he saw that she was wearing thin clothes, he said, "It's okay to go back early, be careful not to catch a cold." ”
Lin Moran lowered his head and didn't reply, and after a while, he raised his head and said, "I want to leave the capital for a while to avoid the limelight, so that the emperor Lao'er will always trouble me." As the prince of a country, the prince will not leave the capital easily, right? I'm also a little more relaxed. ”
"Is there anything else to do but avoid them? If not, it is not better to leave the capital, and it is the same to go to Meiran Villa for two days. Jiang Muyuan asked.
Lin Moran shook his head and said, "After all, it is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, and the emperor wants to break in, can you still stop it?" Besides, I have some ideas in my heart, and I need to confirm it myself, and I can't fake others. These things should have been done a long time ago, and they have been delayed until now, and I blame me, I am too lazy to do my own things. ”
Jiang Muyuan just turned his mind a little and asked, "Are you going to Jiangyu Town?" Wait for me to explain the affairs of the capital, and go with you. I was also in Jiangyu Town back then, and some things I know better than you know. ”
Lin Moran looked up at Jiang Muyuan, and wanted to ask him why he was in Jiangyu Town back then, but there was a voice from afar that someone was looking for them, so Lin Moran had to suppress the idea of asking him, and turned back to the banquet.
The news of the return of the two brothers reached the palace, and soon there was news that Li Yun was going to arrange official positions for the two of them, but the two brothers didn't even enter the palace, but just asked Lin Zhengtang to convey on their behalf that they didn't want to be officials.
