"But ......" Lin Jinlan was still hesitating, but was pulled into Heyueju by Song Lingyue, "If Zhiqiu wants to say that he will tell you sooner or later, right?" All you have to do today is set your heart on your daughter's feast. ”

"Then Zhiqiu, if you want to open it in the future and want to tell me, come to me again." Lin Jinlan left this sentence and followed Song Lingyue into Heyueju in a hurry.

There are rules in Daxia that men and women do not sit at the same table, so the lobby of Heyueju is divided into two, with women entering the right seat and men entering the left seat, divided into two columns, and eating opposite the table.

There is a large open space in the middle lobby, and at this time, there are musicians kneeling in the center of the lobby and playing the guqin, accompanying everyone.

After a while, there was a commotion in the lobby, and Song Lingyue looked in the direction of the commotion.

"King of Jibei? Isn't this the king of Jibei? I don't know who shouted in the guests.

Then Song Lingyue saw the king of northern Hebei walking into the lobby of Heyueju surrounded by the Lin family's father and son.

Dressed in a cyan python robe, shaking a fan in his hand, his aura is lofty, with a smile on his face, but his eyes are dark and deep like a bottomless pool of water.

"Lord Wang, please take a seat." Lord Lin made a gesture of invitation, and the King of Jibei did not say politely to Lord Lin, and sat directly on the main seat of the banquet.

I only heard the king of Jibei smile heartily, and said condescendingly:

"Everyone gathered together to celebrate the growth of a girl in the Lin family, so there is no need to be polite. Come, bring me the congratulatory gifts that the king has prepared. ”

As soon as the King of Jibei finished speaking, two servants dressed as servants carried a red jade coral to the lobby.

The red jade coral is more than half a person tall, crystal clear, extravagant, and valuable at first glance.

The guests were even more discussed:

"I heard that this red jade coral is the treasure of the South China Sea, and it is very valuable, but I didn't expect that the king of northern Hebei would actually give it to Lord Lin."

"It was said before that the king of Jibei and Lin Zhizhou were not compatible, but I think the rumors are false."

"This bottle of red jade coral is crystal clear, it is a treasure at a glance, and it is worth a lot of money, I didn't expect Lord Lin to be so favored by the king of northern Hebei."

As if he hadn't heard the discussion below, the king of Jibei said loudly: "This red jade coral is a treasure of the South China Sea, which is rare in the world, but I heard that the Lin family has a daughter, just like the southern pearl, so I thought that this coral with the southern pearl, isn't it beautiful." I just don't know if Miss Lin likes this congratulatory gift from this king. ”

Lin Jinlan took a step forward and walked to the center of the hall to bow to Wang Yingying of Northern Hebei, and her face was neither humble nor arrogant: "The little girl is grateful for the prince's love, but this coral is too precious, and the little girl is afraid that she can't afford it." ”

"This king said that if you bear it, you will bear it, right, Lord Lin?" King Jibei set his eyes on Lord Lin on the side.

The guests below began to speculate and talk about it again:

"I'm afraid that the king of Jibei is not doing this for Lord Lin, but to make Miss Lin smile."

"This Miss Lin has grown into a big girl, and it is indeed Chu Chu who is moving, no wonder even the king of Jibei can't hold it."

"Since Princess Lin went, the position of the princess of the king of northern Hebei has been vacant, and Princess Lin is Miss Lin's cousin, looking carefully at the two looks a little similar, no wonder the prince is in love with her."

The discussion of everyone was staggering, and the sound was not loud, but a few words floated into Song Lingyue's ears, making her frown.

Song Lingyue knew that the king of northern Hebei once had a princess, but the princess took the five-year-old little prince on a trip eight years ago, and unfortunately died in a mountain bandit on the road, and even the whereabouts of the little prince are unknown.

It is said that the princess was only twenty-four years old when she died, the same age as a flower, but she died like this.

In this way, is the deceased princess actually Song Qingping's mother? And that princess turned out to be Lin Jinlan's cousin, no wonder she always felt kind when she saw Lin Jinlan.

However, when the king of Jibei heard everyone's discussions, he didn't even frown, as if he didn't intend to clarify, could it be that he really wanted Nalin Jinlan to be a continuation?

Not only Song Lingyue took this layer into account, but Lin Jinlan, who was standing in the hall, also took this layer into account.

Lin Jinlan bit her lip and looked at Lord Lin in the court, Lord Lin was already too busy to take care of himself, and there was kung fu to take care of Lin Jinlan's distress gaze.

As soon as this congratulatory gift is received, the rumors of Jizhou Mansion will be rumored again, which will have a great impact on her and the Lin family.

King Jibei didn't intend to let Lord Lin answer, the corners of his lips smiled, and his eyes roamed over the faces of the guests present:

"Since Lord Lin is unwilling to answer, why don't you tell me about it, is this bottle of coral personally selected by this king worthy of Miss Shanglin?"

"Of course this is worthy, Miss Lin is outstanding, but she is better than Nanzhu."

"Yes, yes, this bottle of coral is red all over, precious and dazzling, just like Miss Lin's appearance."

Among the guests, many people have echoed loudly, and many guests think that Lin Zhizhou is lucky, and he has a good relationship with the emperor's mother's brother King Jibei, but he is afraid that he will soon rise to the top.

The Lin family has always been an official in the capital before, and I heard that he offended the Seventh Prince and was misunderstood by the emperor and demoted to Jizhou Mansion as a small governor.

If the Lin family climbs to the king of northern Hebei, returning to the capital is just around the corner.

Lord Lin couldn't say what he was suffering, and he had to squeeze out a smile on his face, now is a sensitive period, if the emperor knows that the king of Jibei intends to take a concubine or his daughter, with the emperor's suspicion, I am afraid that the Lin family will not die well.

Lin Jinlan only felt that layers of cold sweat appeared on her forehead, her helpless eyes were as helpless as a young beast being rounded up in the forest, her eyes swept across Song Lingyue's face, but she didn't expect Song Lingyue to smile at her.

For a moment, Lin Jinlan thought she was dazzled, and when she looked carefully, she saw Song Lingyue silently saying something to her with the corners of her lips, and she suddenly seemed to be lit up by a light.

I saw that Lin Jinlan in the lobby gradually calmed down, a faint smile on the corner of her lips, raised her eyes fearlessly to meet the sight of the king of Jibei, and said loudly: "Since it was given by my brother-in-law, my little sister doesn't dare to say anything." ”

As soon as this 'brother-in-law' came out, the atmosphere that was still a little ambiguous just now was disrupted.

Lin Jinlan called Zhidong to step forward, "Zhidong, put away this bottle of red jade coral for me, and you must store it carefully." ”

Lin Jinlan turned around, and respectfully saluted the king of northern Hebei, raised her voice for fear that everyone would not hear clearly, and said loudly:

"Princess Lin is ten years older than me, and she has grown up with me since she was a child, for Jinlan, the princess is like a sister and a mother, not to mention that this bottle of coral is also a beloved thing in front of my sister, my brother-in-law is willing to cut love, and my little sister is very grateful, and my little sister will take good care of this bottle of coral, so as to remember my sister's kindness to my little sister."

After saying this, Lin Jinlan bowed, and without waiting to see the stunned look on the face of the king of northern Hebei, she had already gotten up and returned to her seat.

This remark has already made it clear that she regards the former princess of Jibei as a close relative, and only regards the king of Jibei as a brother-in-law and elder, without half of the affection, increasing the kinship between the king of Jibei and her, and tying her up, rather than treating her as a substitute for the former princess.

The king of Jibei is a stubborn and conceited man, and he will never allow a woman who rejected her in public to become his princess.

Lin Jinlan knew that this move was very risky, but it seemed that she succeeded. When she returned to her seat, Lin Jinlan felt that her back was wet.

Song Lingyue poured a pot of hot tea and gave it to Lin Jinlan, who threw a grateful glance at her.

If it weren't for Song Lingyue's constant lip sync to remind her in the hall just now, she wouldn't have thought of using her identity to contain the king of northern Hebei so quickly.

King Jibei took a sip of wine, and his deep and dark eyes crossed the faces of the two women on his right who were secretly showing a look of happiness in order to survive this difficulty.

If nothing else, out of the corner of his eye, he just saw that it was the young woman dressed in a plain white dress beside Lin Jinlan, who was dressed very elegantly, and used lip language as a prompt to relieve her.

King Jibei hooked his fingers, Xiao Fuzi, who was standing behind him and waiting, hurriedly stepped forward, he lowered his head and whispered a few words in Xiao Fuzi's ear, Xiao Fuzi glanced at Song Lingyue and nodded.

After this farce, Lord Lin hurriedly arranged for the dancing girl to perform to help the fun, and the King of Jibei seemed to be in a lack of interest and did not make it difficult anymore, but his eyes always crossed Lin Jinlan's side as if he were nothing, and he was shocked to see Lord Lin.

After a banquet, Song Lingyue only felt a sore back, and her whole body was about to fall apart.

"Thanks to you today." Lin Jinlan personally sent Song Lingyue and Xiangling to the door of the mansion, took Song Lingyue's hand, and thanked her endlessly.

"Do you and I still need to thank each other?" Song Lingyue smiled at Lin Jinlan.

Seeing Song Lingyue and Xiangling board the carriage, Lin Jinlan turned back to the mansion.

On the carriage, Song Lingyue rubbed her faintly sore shoulder, and Xiangling hurriedly and thoughtfully helped her massage, "Master has worked hard today." ”

"I didn't expect to be so tired from attending a banquet." Song Lingyue pinched the back of her neck, not to mention how sour the feeling was.

Tiredness is only one aspect, the most important thing is to be frightened by the sudden arrival of the king of northern Hebei.

However, thinking that so many soaps and shampoos had been booked, and Baoningtang had another entry, Song Lingyue was happy again.

The carriage drove back to Shuangcha Lane, Song Lingyue took out the car money and handed it to Wang Laoshi, and gave him an additional ten dollars for his hard work, saying that he was waiting outside for a hard time.

Wang Laoshi rarely met such a generous and kind-hearted employer as Song Lingyue, and kept telling Song Lingyue that if he needed to hire a handlebar in the future, he would come to him.

Song Lingyue responded, and Wang Laoshi happily drove back.

"Master, I feel like I'm hungry again." When she returned to the courtyard, Xiangling's first sentence was that she was hungry.

"Haven't you eaten enough of all the dishes at the banquet?" Song Lingyue turned around and asked her with a smile when she heard this.
