Chapter 111: Cold War (1)
When Xiao Yuye heard the word "concubine", her face was inevitably ugly, because Lin Yue had been canonized as a concubine, so even if her aunt suddenly agreed to marry her cousin now, she could only be a side concubine and a concubine.
Although he wanted to say something, Xiao Yuye knew that what Lin Yue said was the truth, so he left in a huff, not even saying goodbye to Mo Jinglin.
Lin Yue watched her leave, not surprised.
"Can you really accept her to come to the palace?" Mo Jinglin saw that Lin Yue was not angry, so he asked.
Lin Yue wanted to say, didn't she come if I was angry? Am I angry that there will be no other women in this palace after this? What's more, I don't like you, who do you like to marry, anyway, I am the lord, and they can't embarrass me.
"In the future, won't there be more sisters in this backyard, no more than her, no less than her." Lin Yue said indifferently.
"Good, good. You're generous. Mo Jinglin was a little angry, he didn't know why he was angry, was it because Lin Yue didn't care about other women around him at all? Or is it because Xiao Yuye is likely to enter the palace?
Lin Yue said silently in his heart, I am not generous, because I didn't reassure you. You men like fresh, and expect us to be generous, hehe, if you use feelings for you, then I am not very easy to become a resentful woman.
"When the prince says this, is he happy or unhappy? Do you want me to be a resentful woman in the backyard, or a generous person? Lin Yue asked rhetorically, she saw that Mo Jinglin was not very happy, so she asked, and wanted to hug left and right, and wanted all women to rest assured of you, whether it was too greedy.
Mo Jinglin heard this and hurriedly said, "I just hope you can be attentive to me." ”
"Oh. I understand, the prince doesn't like Miss Xiao, and wants me to be a shrew and don't let Miss Xiao enter the door, right? But you also know, Lord, listen to Miss Xiao's meaning, it's the Queen Mother who wants to pull the red line for you, and I can't do anything. But if in the future, if you don't like any woman and need me to come out, I will definitely do what a virtuous helper should do. Lin Yue deliberately misinterpreted the meaning and said.
Qingfeng wanted to say, Miss Lin, you are misinterpreting the meaning of the prince, but he can't say it, after all, he is a subordinate, and the master speaks, what do you do.
Mo Jinglin was not lightly angry, and asked with a cold face, "Xiaoyue, do you really think so, or did you say so on purpose?" ”
Lin Yue saw that he was really angry, and he was not in a hurry, but replied coldly, "Lord Wang, it's good not to be too greedy." ”
Mo Jinglin was shocked when he heard this. He thought that with Lin Yue these days, she would be able to pay more or less attention to herself, but today, it seems that she has never been concerned about herself at all.
"Xiaoyue, how can I ever be greedy. You know, I've always asked for your heart. ”
Lin Yue sat there quietly and didn't speak again, after all, the two people had different ideas, and there would be no result if they talked about it any longer.
Mo Jinglin looked at Lin Yue like that, anxious in his heart. He didn't understand what Lin Yue was thinking, he sometimes couldn't understand Lin Yue, and he always felt that she thought a lot but didn't say it.
Lin Yue saw that he was anxious in his heart, and sighed again and said, "Lord Wang, you are the Lord of the Prince, and I will not be the only woman in your backyard." I knew this for a long time, I didn't ask you to be the only woman I am. Why do you want to force something? If I really put you at ease, I'm afraid that in the future, I will be like other housewives in the backyard, jealous and resentful, this kind of life is not what I want. ”
"When did you start thinking about all this?" Mo Jinglin asked.
"From the time I accepted my destiny to marry you." Lin Yue replied truthfully.
Mo Jinglin smiled bitterly, "So no matter how good I am to you, you will never take me to heart, right?" ”
Lin Yue didn't answer, because what Mo Jinglin said was the truth, she didn't want to be a resentful woman, so don't be emotionally attached to Mo Jinglin, it's better to respect each other.
Mo Jinglin saw that Lin Yue didn't answer, knowing that she really didn't want to take herself to heart, "Xiaoyue, you are so ruthless." Am I not good enough for you? If you don't want to, then I promise, you'll be the only one in this backyard from now on. Why don't you like me from the bottom of your heart? ”
When Lin Yue heard this, he sneered, "Lord Wang, you think you are good to me, then I have to like you?" If I like someone, just if he is good to me, I like it? Don't you think you're wrong? Besides, although you are the prince, there are many things that you can't control. Take Xiao Yuye as an example, if the Queen Mother insists on marrying her to you, do you refuse? Or, in the future, the emperor will give you a beauty, can you refuse? ”
Lin Yue didn't give Mo Jinglin a chance to speak, but continued, "In this world, there are more negative people. If you want me to like you today, if I really like you on another day, but you like someone else, what should I do with my heart? I, Lin Yue, can't share a husband with the woman next to me. It's just that my situation doesn't dictate who I want to marry, or not at all. Since I don't have a choice when it comes to getting married, I can at least choose to make my life more comfortable. ”
"You say I'm ruthless, why aren't you ruthless? If you like me today, you naturally feel that you will be good to me for the rest of your life. But it's hard to guarantee that you will change your mind one day, right? The women in my father's backyard used to be very fond of him, but now that's it, he once cared about them again. For you, it's just one more woman, but for us, it's one more person to share with your husband. If you don't care about your heart, you may overturn the vinegar jar at any time. ”
"You don't promise me anything that I won't change my mind for the rest of my life, do you think it's possible? It's useless to say this kind of thing, but it's only useful if you can prove it for the rest of your life. The human heart is the most difficult to control. Why don't you look back and think about it, what you once liked very much, do you still like it now? ”
Mo Jinglin couldn't answer Lin Yue, her words seemed to be right or wrong, and he was a little confused. No woman had ever said such a thing to herself, not even the Queen Mother. But he still couldn't help asking, "If it's Ye Ning, have you believed it?" Otherwise, why do you like him so much, why is he okay, but this king can't? ”
Lin Yue didn't answer, and left directly. Mo Jinglin saw her leave, and returned to the room angrily. There are two people left, Qingfeng and Xiu'er, you look at me, I look at you, at a loss.
After Lin Yue returned to the room, she thought helplessly, how should I answer the question just now, could it be that Miss Lin in the past, she grew up in your environment, and naturally can accept your man's three wives and four concubines, but I am different, I live in a world that practices monogamy, so I can't accept it.
The more Lin Yue thought about it, the more irritable she became, and she was angry that she wanted to discuss these things with Mo Jinglin, just deal with it casually, and say this plainly, which made both of them unhappy.
Over there, Lin Yue blamed himself for not saying that, but here Mo Jinglin couldn't lift his spirits. He didn't know how to tell Lin Yue that she would believe it. He thought that as long as he did well enough, Lin Yue would rest assured, but now he learned that no matter what he did, Lin Yue didn't want to like him, which made him feel very powerless.
Mo Jinglin sat there, thinking about it, and actually thought of the scene when his mother stood at the gate of the palace waiting for his father when he was a child. At that time, the queen mother looked so lonely and empty. Probably this is the reason why Lin Yue doesn't want to like herself. But her father is her father, and she has repeatedly said that she only likes her, why doesn't she believe it. Is he so unworthy of her trust?
The two of them thought about each other, but neither of them took the initiative to find anyone, and when it was dinner time, Lin Yue didn't come out to eat, but Xiu'er brought the meal into the room for her. As for Mo Jinglin, when he saw that Lin Yue not only didn't come to find him, he didn't come out to eat, but he also went back to the room in a fit of anger and didn't eat anything.
Now Qingfeng and Xiu'er are completely anxious.
"Your prince is a man. You go and tell him, can't he coax my young lady? Xiu'er said to Qingfeng.
"But my grandfather is a dignified prince, let him coax Miss Lin, I'm afraid it's not suitable." Qingfeng refused, just kidding, you don't have to think about it to know that your grandfather is definitely in a bad mood now, why should you cause trouble.
"But he's a man." Xiu'er was reluctant to convince her young lady.
"But he's a prince. Or you tell your young lady and let her coax my grandfather, my grandfather is very coaxing. You see, your young lady is still eating, which means that she is not very angry, and it is easier to talk. But my grandfather didn't even eat dinner, which proved that he was in a very bad mood, and he had to drink medicine again after a while. It's better for you to let your young lady come out and coax you. Qingfeng actively persuaded Xiu'er to persuade Lin Yue to coax his own prince.
"Qingfeng, I see that you are afraid of being scolded by your prince so you don't dare to go, so you want me to go to my young lady." Xiu'er saw that Qingfeng didn't want to provoke Mo Jinglin, so she said directly, "You are still not a man, you are afraid of being trained at this time, am I not afraid, and actually let me invite my young lady." Hmph, anyway, my young lady is fine, it's your grandfather who is hungry if you don't eat, you can do it yourself. ”
Saying that, Xiu'er also left, anyway, Mo Jinglin didn't need her to serve, she didn't like to eat, she ignored it, and it was better to go back and watch Miss.
Qingfeng was told by Xiu'er about the central matter, and it was difficult to refute, so she had to watch her leave, and she went to her grandfather by herself. You'll have to persuade him to eat something.
It's just that he hasn't gone yet, Uncle Xiang, the housekeeper, came, and as soon as he saw Qingfeng, he asked, "Qingfeng, what's going on with tonight's dinner, why did you go back so much, why is the prince uncomfortable and can't eat?" ”
