Lu Jinhua curled up in his arms and fell into a deep sleep.

It's hot and dry, but you don't have to worry about catching a cold. His arm rested under her head, and a wisp of green silk wrapped around her fingers swept across his face, intentionally or unintentionally.

The fire three years ago......

Wen Changning was only half right, the Lu family's accident was caused by him, and it had nothing to do with him.

From the moment he rescued Lu Jinhua, his and her lives were tightly tied together. In other words, his net worth and life are closely tied to the Lu family. Therefore, after he was deposed as the crown prince, he deliberately released all kinds of rumors, so that the Lu family took the initiative to give up on him to ensure his peace and security.

At that time, he was also worried that Lu Jinhua would not be able to help but run to the Xianwang Mansion to find him, so he also conceived several arguments for this, but she didn't, not once.

People are so strange, they don't want her to come, and when she really doesn't come, he is very disappointed.

In the midst of the loss, she couldn't help but speculate whether she was controlled by the Lu family, or if she was a child with a big heart, she didn't take him to heart at all, and she regarded it as very important.

It wasn't until recently that he realized that it wasn't that she didn't want to come, but that she didn't want to cause trouble to him and the Lu family, so he held back that thought.

Thinking of her forbearance and sadness, Qin Yi's eyes were slightly rippling, he leaned down and kissed her lips again.

"I'm sorry." He muttered softly.

If it weren't for Qin Xie's worry that he would join forces with the Lu family and make a comeback one day, there would not have been Lu Ruhui's "treason and collaboration with the enemy" in the future, so that all 86 members of the Lu family would be buried in the fire......

He'll protect her, he will.

"Xiaojin, you are my baby," he rubbed her cool little face, "my favorite baby." ”

Lu Jinhua snorted twice, but I don't know if I heard it.

At dawn, there seemed to be a movement around me.

Lu Jinhua tried to open his eyes, but he didn't open them, turned over and continued to sleep. The hand touched the side of her body, and suddenly remembered that she seemed to have done something not very polite last night, and instantly sat up, panicking to find clothes to wrap herself.

When she found that she was fully dressed and lying on the bed, she couldn't help but be at a loss.

So last night...... Is it a dream?

She actually had such a dream of Meng Lang?

Her cheeks flushed, her throat was so dry that she grabbed the bed pole and wanted to get up and drink. It just so happened that Qin Yi came from the edge of the room, holding a few thin books in his hand. Probably because of the beginning, he only wore a plain silk shirt. The sunlight outside the window was half sprinkled on his shoulders, he squinted rather lazily, his black hair was scattered at will, the whiter the whiter, the blacker the blacker, and Lu Jinhua's heart was beating and his cheeks were even more melting.

Seeing Lu Jin's half-closed eyes, his eyes dodging, and his extremely shy appearance, Qin Yi's heart fluttered, and he was a little difficult to control himself.

After all, they haven't been together in a while.

Just as he was hesitating to believe the thin wooden bed, a few laughs came from outside the door. Hindering the large number of servants and maids in the Wenhou Mansion, Qin Yi dissipated his thoughts, and his eyes tended to be calm. took out a set of red dresses from the baggage next to her, handed it to her, and said half-casually and half-seriously: "Wear this, I want to see it." ”

Since the last time Qin Yi and Zhuyue wore this dazzling color at their wedding, she has become more and more reluctant to see red. If it weren't for acting, she wouldn't have wanted to touch the gorgeous last time in front of the moon. Unexpectedly, Qin Yi came prepared, and directly took the red dress to her. If he doesn't wear it, maybe he will toss out some moths.

Lu Jinhua pursed the corners of his lips and replaced them.

When she finished dressing up in front of the mirror, Qin Yi didn't know where to take out a fireball phoenix hairpin and insert it directly into her bun.

Lu Jinhua's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at him obliquely: "Brother last month has something to say?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Qin Yi leaned down, wrapped his arms around her waist, and whispered in her ear: "It's rare that Wenhou Mansion doesn't have other eyes, I'll be honest with you, isn't it?" Kissed her earlobe affectionately: "Xiaojin, you...... Do you still like me? ”

Suddenly asked this direct question, Lu Jinhua looked at the mirror in a daze, and didn't react for a while.

Qin Yi raised her head slightly, and when she saw her in the mirror, her face was full of shock, and her heart was infarcted.

In the past, when she used to talk about her likes, he always felt that the little fool was hypocritical, but now that he hadn't listened to it for too long, he wanted to hear it, but she was surprised. Maybe it's himself who is hypocritical.

With a moment's laughter, his warm hand covered her slender little hand and held it firmly, and after a moment, he made up his mind and asked in a deep voice, "Are you helping Qin Xie do something?" ”

Lu Jinhua was even more surprised: "How can you ...... I-"

"The prince, the side concubine, the old marquis, please come over!" Xunqing's voice came from the door.

In a mess, Lu Jinhua's original words were instantly scattered. She looked at Qin Yi anxiously, opened her mouth, and wanted to say something more, but Qin Yi didn't give her a chance. In his eyes, her hesitation was acquiescence.

He was a little bored with himself, his face was slightly gloomy, and he silently released the hand around her waist, and then took the toothbrush on the table and pressed it into her hand: "Tie my hair for me." "Say no more.

Absentmindedly tidying up, before going out, Qin Yi still held her hand. Lu Jinhua was a little sad, blaming herself for not seizing the opportunity, I don't know when Qin Yi will be honest with her again.

Depressed all the way, Qin Yi was also depressed, and when Wanqing took the two of them to the front of the hall and retreated, they gradually gathered their thoughts together.

The hall was lively, and three people sat scattered on the wooden chairs on the left and right. Seeing Qin Yi and Lu Jin painting in, the woman with exquisite makeup raised her eyebrows slightly, held the fan in her hands, got up and said lazily: "The prince and the side concubine are polite." ”

The other two men did not hide the contempt on their faces, and said casually directly on their seats: "The prince and the side concubine are polite." And they went on to talk to each other.

The Wen family is flourishing and has a century-old foundation, and in the generation of Lu Jinhua's mother, Wen Yuanpeng, it is only the main branch, and there are dozens of brothers and sisters. Except for Wen Yuanpeng, who died unexpectedly and early, the rest of his peers are still healthy. Lu Jinhua has not returned all the year round, and the hall is full of elders, except for her grandfather, she can't remember the rest.

But who was good to her, she still remembers.

Just as he was thinking, a gentle "painting" came from behind him. Lu Jinhua was overjoyed, turned around, and deeply blessed the kind woman: "Uncle is polite." ”

Rao Qianxi is Wen Changning's biological mother and a close friend of Wen Yuanpeng's boudoir. It is precisely because of this relationship that Rao Qianxi regards Lu Jinhua as her own. When she was young, she took special care of her, and after the Lu family's accident, she was not less frightened. Because the Lu family's sin is too great, she is already the wife of the Wen family, and it is inconvenient to make a move, so she will give up.

I haven't seen Lu Jinhua for a long time, and she can't care about what is not a concubine, so she holds Lu Jinhua's hand and looks left and right. At the end, he said happily: "The painting looks like it has grown a few taels of flesh, but your body is weak, and you won't be fat if you grow two taels more." ”

Lu Jinhua pursed his red lips and smiled, his heart warm. was about to reply, but heard the sitting woman say quietly: "What the fourth sister-in-law said is like the poor mansion of the idle king, and our cousin can't even afford to eat rice." ”

Rao Qianxi's face changed suddenly, and Lu Jinhua hurriedly went to see Qin Yi and wanted to explain to him. Qin Yi smiled back at her and said to the woman: "Xian Wangfu has always been poor, and it is indeed not as generous as Wenhou Mansion, this king admits this." It's just that the rice can still be eaten, I don't know when this aunt will be free to come to the Xianwang Mansion to eat a bowl of rice? ”

Wen Yuanfang choked, rolled her eyes angrily, and didn't look away.

is just an idle king, and he is not even qualified to go to the early dynasty, and he doesn't know where he got the cheek to target her.

Qin Yi saw her contemptuous face, and the corners of her lips were slightly hooked.

He had heard a little about the situation in Wenhou Mansion, and it was the most appropriate to describe it in four words. Now the Wen family is all supported by the old Marquis Wen alone, if he dies, there is still no chaos below.

"Ahem, what are you doing standing? Sit down, sit down! Wen Baizheng was slowly paced out by Wen Changning, and the men and women on both sides saw this, and got up and saluted. Okay, okay, it's all your own people, just sit down. He waved his hand.

"Yes, father."

The elders were all seated, and Qin Yi and Lu Jinhua took two steps forward and saluted Wen Baizheng.

All of them were stunned.

Lu Jinhua's big gift can be said to be reasonable, after all, there is a little blood of the Wen family in his body. It was very scary for Qin Yi to follow the big salute, in their eyes, this move was tantamount to making Wen Baizheng lose his life.

"Idle King, you ......" Wen Baizheng's face was slightly gloomy.

Qin Yi bowed his head and said: "There is no idle king today, only a grandson-in-law. "Tianhe

Lu Jinhua couldn't figure out what he was thinking, bit his lip, and added: "There is no side concubine, only your granddaughter." ”

Wen Baizheng saw that the two of them sang and harmonized, and immediately became happy, clapped his hands and smiled: "Okay, good, two good children, get up and sit down." ”

Xu is an elderly person likes flocculents, especially if he hasn't seen Lu Jinhua for three years, Wen Baizheng pulled Lu Jinhua to ask long and short questions, joy is embedded in the folds, Lu Jinhua can see clearly, and his heart is funny and sour.

The rest of the people were all veterans who observed words and feelings, and seeing that Wen Baizheng didn't ask what they meant, they looked at each other after staying for a while, and then said goodbye.

As soon as the superfluous people left, Wen Baizheng suddenly smiled.

The surrounding momentum changed instantly, and Lu Jinhua's heart shrank suddenly, not knowing what was going to happen next.

Wen Baizheng: "Changning damn, take the painting to your house to sit down." ”

Lu Jinhua looked at Qin Yi, and when he saw Qin Yi nodding slightly, he became a lot more down-to-earth, and smiled sweetly at Wen Baizheng: "Grandpa, the painting will be pestered by my aunt, and I will come to see you later!" ”

"Hehe, good!"

When Rao Qianxi and Lu Jinhua stepped out of the threshold, Wen Baizheng motioned to Wen Changning to close the door.

August is the heaviest time of the summer heat in Xiliang, there are maids holding umbrellas on the side, and the thin sweat on the body is still endless. Rao Qianxi saw that there was a square pavilion not far away, and a cluster of green bamboos outside the pavilion was lush, and she had the idea of going to the pavilion to rest, so she sent two maids to prepare sweet soup and ice cubes to send to the pavilion.

Hand in hand on the steps, next to the chair, Rao Qianxi took out two ice silk handkerchiefs from his sleeves and spread them carefully before letting Lu Jinhua sit down.

"This ice silk handkerchief was sent by your Ruyi cousin, saying that it is something from Nanxiang, which is cool to the skin and the most relieving of heat and heat. It's a pity that ice silk is rare, and only the queen mother and queen in the entire harem are blessed to use large pieces of ice silk to make quilts, and the rest of the concubines are mostly square veils, so that they can touch this new ingenious thing and open their eyes. ”

Wen Ruyi is four years older than Lu Jinhua, when he was a child, Lu Jinhua liked to pester that quiet girl, and vaguely remembered that she once had a favorite childhood sweetheart, originally the two families were going to get married, but somehow, the little boy died suddenly, and there was an accident along with the family. After a few more years, Wen Ruyi's appearance became more and more provocative, and she was naturally elected to the palace.

"Cousin, is she okay?" Lu Jinhua asked softly, "I heard that she had a miscarriage before, but I don't know how she is recovering now?" ”

Rao Qianxi let out a long sigh, her face full of sorrow: "Miscarriage is a taboo for women, not only the body, but also the heart." What's more, Ruyi is pregnant and has a miscarriage in May, and the children are all presentable......"

Lu Jinhua pinched her palm, this kind of thing is really unacceptable, but she can't continue to reveal people's scars, so she comforted: "My cousin is still young, and when she takes care of her for a few years, she will definitely be able to have children!" ”

Rao Qianxi's lips were slightly pursed, and she said that she knew her daughter Mo Ruomu, she knew that Wen Ruyi had never forgotten the son of the Fang family in her heart, and she also knew that her daughter's miscarriage was caused by the jealousy of the women in the palace. The queen and the concubine have not had a son for many years, and Wen Ruyi has only just been promoted to the concubine, how could they allow her to give birth to her eldest son first? Although Wen Ruyi didn't say it explicitly the last time they met, she could guess that her daughter would never have a chance to be a mother in her life.

The more she thought about it, the more sad she became, and Rao Qianxi decided to change the subject. Looking at Lu Jinhua carefully, the more she looked at this girl's eyebrows, the more she liked it, grabbed Lu Jinhua's hand and asked, "How is the prince treating you?" ”

The question was sudden, Lu Jinhua was unexpected, out of politeness, she still smiled and replied: "The prince treats me very well." ”

"And what's the matter with the princess?" Rao Qianxi clenched her hand, "Painting, the side room is not easy to do, sandwiched in the middle, not up or down, and the two ends are not pleased." You girl has a soft temperament, she doesn't have any thoughts, and she is carefully eaten alive! ”

Lu Jinhua's smile stiffened, and his voice lowered by two points: "The princess is a marriage given by the emperor, so she can't be lazy, and she can't complain about the prince." ”

"Silly girl!" Rao Qianxi's shallot-like fingertips nodded to Lu Jinhua's forehead, "As the saying goes, 'I'd rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail', this is not rough, what does it mean for the little poor child to stay in that aggrieved place?" It's better to come back, if you feel that Wen Fu is alive and no one hurts, your aunt and your uncle, as well as your cousin Changning, will protect you in the palm of your hand. If you are willing......" smiled deeply, "you can call me 'mother', you can't do it." ”

Lu Jinhua was so frightened that he almost went into cardiac arrest.

She never thought that Rao Qianxi still had such thoughts. Regardless of whether Rao Qianxi really thinks about her or has other plans, she will lose her head when she says this. She took a deep breath, barely stabilized her mind, and suddenly smiled lightly, hugged Rao Qianxi and began to be coquettish.

"My aunt is not only my uncle's wife, but also my mother's close friend, and I can count Xiaojin as half of my mother," let go of her hand, she looked at Rao Qianxi with an innocent face, "So if my aunt wants to hear a 'godmother', Xiaojin can also call it, but I just think that 'godmother' is not as kind as 'aunt'." What do you think? ”

Rao Qianxi heard her refusal, smiled, said no more, and found another topic.

At that time, in the living room.

"I wonder what Grandpa wants to say to the same month?" Qin Yi smiled indifferently and took the teacup on his right. Sniffing carefully, it is Qin Xie's favorite snow-topped jade bud, and it seems that his good brother has taken care of the Wen family.

Wen Baizheng saw him drinking tea carefully, smiling without saying a word.

has lived for more than 80 years, was caught in the civil strife of the royal family in his early years, and experienced many wars, Wen Baizheng has read countless people, and naturally can see that this idle king is not as unbearable as rumored. But after all, he is a young man, and his mind is still a little immature, and he can see that the other old people in the court are not blind.

Now, the dark tide of the previous dynasty is surging.

Although the forces surrounding Qin Yi were killed and exiled when Qin Xie ascended the throne, there were still many people with exquisite minds who were able to survive. The days in the cracks were difficult, they stayed up for five years and didn't find any movement from Qin Yi, and now more than half of the people decided to completely submit to Qin Xie.

But Wen Baizheng knew that Qin Xie was not a good monarch.

In terms of political achievements alone, Qin Yi was able to give advice at the age of nine to help control the flood, and at the age of thirteen, he personally led troops to suppress bandits, and wiped out the remnants of hundreds of bandits in Xishanling. And Qin Xie, the people sent by the flood control a few years ago escaped, almost causing the entire county to be flooded, and what he has done since he ascended the throne is also unsatisfactory. Old people know that a country does not need a meritorious monarch at all.

And the biggest reason for Wen Baizheng's decision is that the Wen family has already folded three children in Qin Xie's hands.

It wasn't until Qin Yi put down the teacup that Wen Baizheng slowly spoke: "The prince is a smart person, and when he talks to a smart person, the old minister doesn't need to bother to speak." "Secretly pushed the realm of identity out.

Qin Yi thought for a while, and bowed his head: "Old Marquis Wen, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

"Two days before the fire in Lufu three years ago, Peng Peng, who was Hua'er's mother, asked someone to send a letter." took out the slightly yellowed envelope from his sleeve, took out the piece of paper inside, and gave it to Wen Changning. Wen Changning took it and handed it to Qin Yi. "There is only one painting in the letter, next to it is the time of Peng Peng's birth, please take a look at it first."

Qin Yi took a closer look, bent his fingers against his chin, and his eyes were dark.

The content of the painting is very simple, a peach tree, a red sun, and the left side is as Wen Baizheng said, it is an hour.

The old minister pondered for a long time and didn't understand what he meant, but not long after receiving this letter, Peng Peng was buried in the fire. Peng girl has been smart since she was a child, and the old minister guessed that she was probably hiding a secret in this painting, so he sent people to look for peach trees everywhere in the house. Later, she found it in front of her own Snow Hung Pavilion, in the shape of branches and leaves, no different. Wen Baizheng sighed faintly: "It happened that the sun was very strong that day, and Lao Chen found a shadow under the tree. And when Peng Peng was born, the shadow was in the corner in front of the pavilion. Seeing that the color of the soil over there seemed to be abnormal, the old minister asked Changning to take a look, and as a result, he dug out an iron box from the ground. ”

"Huh?" Qin Yi frowned, "What's in the tin box?" ”

Wen Baizheng waved to Wen Changning, Wen Changning's eyes darkened, and he seemed to be reluctant, but he still untied the jade pendant around his waist, took another piece from his sleeve, and handed it to Qin Yi.

"What is placed in the tin box is the jade pendant on the left, and the one on the right is the peace gift that Peng Peng gave him when Changning was born. It's just that we didn't know that there were two pieces of jade pendant back then, but now the two pieces are placed together, and it seems that they can be combined into one. ”

Qin Yi put the jade pendants next to each other, only to hear a soft "click", and sure enough, there was a delicate mechanism in the dark.

Wen Baizheng smiled slightly: "This jade pendant is already precious, if you use it to make it...... Objects like the key to open the door, what a thing in that door, how powerful! ”

Qin Yi suddenly brightened.

Lu Ruhui has been a salt and rice merchant for three generations, and even when his family and country are in turmoil, he can't shake their foundation in the slightest. At that time, Lu Ruyan entered the office, in order to brush up the wealth and infamy of his ancestors, it is said that he donated all his net worth to the treasury, and since then, everything in the Lu Mansion has also been purchased according to the specifications, but now it seems that it is not so simple.

For Qin Yi, having money can at least solve half of his urgent needs. But why did Wen Baizheng give him this secret and this jade key?

Qin Yi remained silent, put down the jade key, and put his fingers on the side of the teacup intentionally or unintentionally.

Wen Baizheng sighed, squinted his eyes and looked into the distance: "There are many descendants of Lao Chen's family, but Peng Peng and Ruxin died early. ”

Wen Yuanpeng died three years ago, and everyone knows about it, and this junior, who should be Wen Changning's sister. Qin Yi has not been to the court in person for many years, and he really doesn't know about the courtiers' family affairs.

Wen Baizheng seemed to mutter: "Ruxin is Ruyi's younger sister and the ninth granddaughter of Lao Chen, just over thirteen years old. When I went to the palace to visit Ruyi, I never thought of it in the eyes of that person. It is already painful to ruin his body at a young age, and he was summoned by the queen before being sent out of the palace and forcibly poured a bowl of decoction...... Poor as a heart, a whimper! Ruyi went to the queen to ask for an explanation, but the queen said that Ruxin didn't know self-love, the Wen family didn't know how to be satisfied, and it was not enough to have a noble concubine, so she had to send another one...... Hehe......" Speaking of the stinging place, Wen Baizheng's face was already full of tears.

When you are old, you can't see anyone pass away, let alone a white-haired person sending a black-haired person. How did Wen Yuanpeng and Lu Ruhui die, his heart is like a mirror, and he knows exactly how Wen Ruyi is doing in the harem. originally thought that retreating from the world would keep others safe, but now he has another warm heart.

Who will be next?

Wen Baizheng knew that Qin Xie would not let go of his big clan, and when the time was ripe, the Wenhou Mansion might be swallowed up by an inexplicable fire just like the Lu Mansion back then. Since this is the case, he can no longer sit still, Qin Yi's secret battle, he will do whatever it takes, and he will participate in it to the end.

Tightly pinching the beast's head chair and slowly standing up, Wen Baizheng's green tendons appeared on the back of his hand, and he walked in front of Qin Yi.

This old man who knew the destiny of heaven looked like a leopard waiting to be hunted, his eyes were full of forest, and he gritted his teeth with hatred: "King Xian, from now on, Lao Chen and Changning will be used by you!" As long as the old minister still has a breath of air, he will not let those chaotic ministers and thieves in the previous dynasty turn over the big waves and disturb your great cause in the slightest! After that, he knelt down with Wen Changning and made a long salute.
