Chapter 14: Reward
Lin Xin walked to the garden and separated from Lin Yue, only the female relatives entered the harem to ask the queen mother for peace, and the male relatives had to go to meet the saint, and at the banquet later, they would celebrate the queen mother's birthday.
Lin Yue followed An Yuyan and walked towards the Queen Mother's Fushou Palace. An Yuyan didn't have the intention of chatting with others at this time, but kept telling Lin Yue to pay attention to something. Before the words were finished, Fushou Palace arrived. After the palace people reported, An Yuyan led Lin Yue in.
"The courtiers An Yuyan, with the daughter Lin Yue, see the Queen Mother, and wish the Queen Mother a long life and a healthy life." An Yuyan led Lin Yue to salute the Queen Mother.
"Excuse me, give me a seat."
"Empress Dowager Xie."
The two of them had just sat down, and the Queen Mother spoke, "This is the eldest lady of the Lin family, Lin Yue." Sheng Er's daughter-in-law who has not passed the door? "King Rong's real name is Mo Yongsheng.
"Exactly, Queen Mother, look at how smart this Miss Lin is." Concubine Quan replied on the side. In any case, she was very satisfied with this family business. As long as his son becomes a relative to Lin Yue and is protected by the Lin family, whoever becomes the emperor in the future will have to save some face. Although she wanted her son to sit on the throne more, she also knew that her son was half a fool, and others did not dare to say it, but she knew it. can only retreat to the next best thing and plan a good family affair for him in marriage.
"Oh, come here, let the mourners see."
Lin Yue had to step forward, the Queen Mother took her hand, the more she looked at it, the more she liked it, asked a few words, saw Lin Yue calmly answered, she was very satisfied, so she gave her a jade Ruyi, a few palace hairpins, and let her go back to her seat.
"This Miss Lin is really a good one, but it's a pity that this palace has no chance to ask General Lin to be a daughter-in-law. Come, come here, let Hongu take a good look. The queen on the side also spoke, no matter what, seeing that the queen mother likes this Miss Lin, she has to be pretentious. What's more, there is a Lin family standing behind this girl. said that he was begging to be a daughter-in-law, but he also said it casually, looking at the entire harem, only the stupid son of Concubine Quan could blatantly ask to marry this Miss Lin family. Others who have sons don't want to, but they don't dare. Afraid of angering the emperor. On the contrary, it is not conducive to the future struggle for the throne.
The queen only asked a few words casually, rewarded Lin Yue with a jade ruyi, and then let her go back to her seat.
"Come, Yue'er, come here." Seeing that the Queen Mother and the Queen had finished asking and rewarding something, the concubine over there summoned Lin Yue over, looking at Lin Yue's appearance, she liked it as much as she wanted. Busy taking off the jade bracelet that he had been wearing in his hand and giving it to Lin Yue.
"This is when I first entered the palace, the emperor gave it to the palace, and the palace liked it very much, so I have been wearing it, and I will give it to you today."
"It's so precious, Lin Yue doesn't dare to accept it." Lin Yue wanted to refuse, after all, the thought that the meeting might anger the concubine later, and he didn't dare to accept anything from her. However, Concubine Quan was determined to give it away, so Lin Yue had no choice but to accept it.
Then a room of people chatted with the east and the west, coaxing the queen mother to be happy until the emperor arrived.
"The emperor has arrived!" The eunuch outside the door shouted at the top of his voice.
The room full of people, except for the Queen Mother, were busy kneeling down and saluting. The emperor dismissed everyone, and then they all got up. Lin Yue stood aside, and secretly glanced at Mo Jingxuan, the emperor of the Bright Moon Dynasty, out of the corner of his eye, dressed in yellow, with sword eyes and starry eyebrows, not angry but mighty, and Mo Jinglin did not have much similarity.
Mo Jingxuan didn't look at the group of women standing, but said to the Queen Mother, "Queen Mother, this hour is almost up, and the retainer will accompany you to the Yingxi Palace." ”
"Well, let's go." After the queen mother finished speaking, she walked in front with the emperor and queen, and a group of female dependents followed behind and went to the Yingxi Palace.
A palace banquet has already been set up in the Yingxi Palace, and Lin Yue is the daughter-in-law of the royal family, and the seat is much higher than that of other noble ladies. Because Liu Qianqian is the daughter of the prime minister, she is only one position behind Lin Yue. However, her attitude towards Lin Yue is much better now. Lin Yue is still satisfied with the current relationship with Liu Qianqian, no matter what, if there is less trouble, there will be less trouble.
However, she was still a little irritated in her heart, because she didn't see Mo Jinglin. I thought he would definitely appear at this banquet, but I didn't think that he didn't come.
Mo Jinglin deliberately dragged the time to come in, he just wanted to see if this Miss Lin would be in a hurry. So as soon as he entered the hall, he glanced at Lin Yue from the corner of his eye, and when he saw her, the eagerness in her eyes made him very satisfied.
The queen mother didn't blame this little son too much for coming too slowly, not long after Mo Jinglin was born, the first emperor died, so she naturally loved this little son who was not loved by his father since he was a child. Just a few words, and then let him sit down.
After Mo Jinglin sat down, he enjoyed the food unhurriedly. He could feel the eyes of Lin Yue on the other side from time to time, and knew that this girl should be very anxious, but he was not in a hurry, he liked to consume it slowly and die in a hurry.
Mo Jinglin is in a beautiful mood and enjoys the food. But Lin Yue was very anxious, seeing that the banquet was halfway through, if he hadn't found an opportunity, what would he do. She glanced at King Rong who was sitting opposite, looking at the obscene look on his face, and the eyes that drifted to her from time to time really made her not even in the mood to eat.
Mo Jinglin ate for a while, and also noticed that Mo Yongsheng's eyes drifted to Lin Yue from time to time at that time, which made him feel very annoying. I was not in the mood to tease that Lin Yue anymore, so I took advantage of the fact that everyone was paying attention to the song and dance, so I withdrew with a breeze. Before leaving, he noticed Lin Yue's smiling face. Looks like this girl is really waiting for him to get out of here.
Lin Yue asked Xiu'er to guard the exit, just waiting for the opportunity, if Mo Jinglin left the scene halfway, she followed, looking for an opportunity, let Mo Jinglin go to a palace behind, that palace, Lin Yue heard from An Yuyan, An Yuyan told Lin Yue that not far from the Yingxi Hall where the banquet was held, there was an empty palace called Jingyue Palace, which was a place for the ladies to rest and change their clothes after the banquet. The banquet was still going on at the moment, and naturally there was no one there.
When Mo Jinglin walked out of the Yingxi Palace, he noticed that someone was following behind, so he asked Qingfeng to pretend to leave in advance to create an opportunity for Xiu'er.
Xiu'er felt that her young lady was really messing around, and she had to take action before she thought about anything carefully, and said that she would act at the right time. Now, as she expected, the King of Freedom is out. But even if she wanted to go up and trick him into going to the Jingyue Palace, it would not be easy, let alone follow a guard. Before she could figure out what to do, she saw that the guard was gone, leaving Mo Jinglin alone. Xiu'er felt that the opportunity had come, so she hurriedly walked a few steps forward and caught up with Mo Jinglin.
