Chapter 13 Concerning the Past
She took it and said thank you, remembering that the last time I parted, it was the handkerchief handed by the queen mother, just like yesterday.
Sometimes when she calms down, she will also wonder why she agreed to this family business in the first place. Is it because his father said that His Royal Highness the eldest son withdrew from the marriage, and it was the third son Lin Chengzhi who got married. Or is it because the eldest brother knows her affectionately, and comforts her as a princess, which is her fate. When she was leaving, she asked her mother if they would one day regret marrying her to the Central Plains? The queen mother said, "No." That's so categorical. He also said: In the future, you will understand that we are really for your good.
Perhaps......
"What did my brother tell you?" The two walked on the way back, and Fu Li couldn't help but ask.
Lin Chengzhi's figure was stunned, and he replied in his usual tone without changing his face, "He asked me to take good care of you." ”
Fuli couldn't help but sneer, "He cares about me so much?" I also asked you to take good care of me, I have hands and feet, and it's not that I can't take care of myself. "It's eventful.
"He also told me to watch you don't get into trouble everywhere."
"I've never caused trouble, okay." She said with a serious face.
He smiled, she turned her face incredulously, approached him and looked closer, but it was only for a moment, and he took it back, "What's the matter?" ”
She took a step back embarrassedly, staring intently at his expression, "No, it's rare to see you laugh, Lin Zhenxi said that she had never seen you smile when she was so old." ”
Lin Chengzhi blushed slightly, and it seemed just right for Fuli, "Yes." ”
Fuli nodded violently, "Yes, yes, you just laughed." ”
He couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth again, "It's really as your brother said, you never admit that you have been in trouble, especially after getting drunk." ”
"Oh my God, why does he tell you everything, I'm his own sister, okay?" She was dissatisfied, and suddenly remembered the good things she had done after she was drunk last time, so she believed what Fu Zheng said, drinking and making mistakes.
"Then you have to keep me with you all the time, maybe one day I will get into a big disaster." After saying that, she pursed her mouth in embarrassment. That look is really like a seventeen-year-old girl's first love, after all, it is the first person she likes.
Lin Chengzhi, Lin Chengzhi, a name she has remembered since she was ten years old, she never thought that one day she would be so close to him, and she successfully became the only one by his side.
When he heard this, he just smiled and didn't speak.
"Promise me to laugh a lot in the future." She leaned her face over, and he lowered his head when he heard it, as if the two were kissing from a distance. For a time, the fish in the pond in front of the hall were all playing, and the breeze was blowing, and even the ripples were gentle and intoxicating.
Suddenly, a shout sounded in the distance, breaking the silence, and when the two of them heard the sound, it was Murong Ye, and Fuli not only gave him a blank look, why didn't he go back yet, it was really ghostly.
The two walked over slowly and greeted politely, "Brother." ”
Murong Ye looked at her carefully, then looked away and looked at Lin Chengzhi, "I forgot to tell you, Uncle Huang asked you to go to the palace today, saying that he had considered what you asked him." ”
Lin Chengzhi couldn't suppress the joy in his heart at the moment, and only said: "En." Then he turned to Fuli and said, "I'll go back when I go." Fuli also nodded, and watched him leave with a smile. After Lin Chengzhi walked away, she suddenly realized that Murong Ye was still here, so she wanted to run away, but she didn't think about it, but he took the lead and blocked her way, "What's the hurry, don't dare to look at me?" Wasn't it quite tough just now? ”
"My brother told me not to be like you, after all, no one wants to marry you if it weren't for a marriage like you."
"Huh...... It's sharp-toothed, I didn't eat enough of the whip ten years ago. ”
Fuli gritted his teeth and looked up at him with a pretended ease of relief, "I don't know what you're talking about." ”
"Also, it was all ten years ago, I'm afraid you don't remember, otherwise, I'll help you recall your memories, it just so happens that I brought a whip today." With that, he smiled evilly.
This made her very disgusted and annoyed, "Don't go too far, I'm also the princess now." ”
"Listening to this tone, is it admitting?" He suddenly approached her and said, "I'm just scaring you, do you think I'm really going to beat you like I did ten years ago?" Well? ”
She turned her face away and was about to leave quickly, but he grabbed her wrist, and almost at the same time, she reflexively shook it off, and subconsciously looked to see if anyone was watching. After a long time, she calmed down, looked directly at him and said word by word: "Yes, I will tell you today that I am the person you beat with a whip ten years ago, and I have remembered this hatred of you for ten years, you have to be careful." With that, she didn't give him any chance to reply, and walked away quickly, not daring to wonder if he would really take the whip if he stayed any longer, even if it was just to scare her.
......
In the palace, Murong Li was looking at today's recital, and after a while, someone came in to report that His Royal Highness the Prince had arrived. Murong Li put down the fold and said: Let him in. Then he pressed his eyebrows tiredly, and the guy next to him still had eyesight, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask: Your Majesty, do you want to call Concubine Luo Shu to help Your Majesty relax.
Murong Li waved his hand and said lightly, "No, you go down first." ”
Duke Chonggong was ordered to leave, and saw Lin Chengzhi respectfully saluting outside the hall: Your Highness.
Lin Chengzhi stopped, and said in the same way: "Chonggong." Although it was just the simplest greeting, it made him feel very cordial. In fact, he is not much different from Chonggong, but because he has been by the emperor's side all the year round when he entered the palace, everyone respectfully calls him Chonggonggong. is obviously about the same age as him, but Chonggonggong seems to be so vicissitudes, I don't know what he has experienced over the years.
When Lin Chengzhi saw Murong Li, he was the only one left in the palace, and he walked over with him, the coldness of the palace pierced the backbone, maybe this was the real loneliness.
"Your Majesty."
Murong Li slowly opened his eyes, and when he saw him, his face revealed an unconcealable joy, "Didn't you say that you would call me Emperor Uncle in private?" ”
Lin Chengzhi was obviously a little embarrassed and a little difficult to speak, but after all, it was the emperor's request, "What is the so-called matter of the emperor's uncle calling his ministers?" ”
He lowered his gaze and said softly: "In a few days, it will be the death day of your biological mother, I have considered what you said, and I will grant you this request if you agree to marry Xishu for the sake of the Southern Dynasty, but he can only accompany him, and your mother will not want to see him very much." ”
He understood that anyone who knew that his husband would be happy to see him if he married someone else and had children, and it was good to accompany him, so it would be good to watch from a distance like this, "Thank you, uncle." ”
"Thank you, your mother is my most beloved sister, and you are naturally my favorite nephew, if it weren't for your insistence on staying with your father, I would really like to see you every day."
"Thanks to the love, the emperor's uncle left Chengzhi by his father's side is the greatest love for Chengzhi."
Murong Li sighed softly, "I really don't know how Lin Yuanqian taught you, you have such a cold temperament, you don't look like your mother at all." ”
"Mother, she's so stupid." Undeniably, stupid enough to give everything for a man, even his own life.
Murong Li sighed lightly again, yes, but ...... He looked up at Lin Chengzhi not far away, he was good at everything, but he lived too thoroughly, as if he had looked down on everything and became pampered, but what he really hoped was that he could have the liveliness of Ayu, instead of being so old at a young age, "By the way, how do you get along with the princess of Xishu?" ”
At the mention of this, he couldn't help but blush a little, "It's good to help her out." ”
"Looks like you're quite satisfied with this marriage?"
"Yes." This sentence of grace is very light and shallow, Murong Li must not be able to hear it, but it is clear at a glance by looking at his expression.
"It's good to like it, it's rare to be able to get into Chengzhi's eyes."
Lin Chengzhi raised his head, Wan Er smiled, and then noticed the vicissitudes of his face, so he asked, "Uncle Huang, but what is the tricky thing lately?" ”
Murong Li paused with the hand on his temple, his eyes were really sharp, "There really is one thing, do you want to hear it?" ”
"The affairs of the court, Chengzhi is not easy to meddle in, if it is really tricky, you can invite Lord Yushi to discuss it together."
"Huh? Why not the prime minister? ”
Lin Chengzhi was stunned for a moment, only to realize that he was a little speechless, and hurriedly explained: "The minister doesn't think that the Prime Minister is bad, but he just thinks that Lord Yushi can be more peaceful. ”
Murong Li naturally knew the meaning of his words, and smiled silently, "Even the truth you know, I don't know." Murong Li got up, walked in front of Lin Chengzhi, and said with a smile: "Since you're here, let's play chess with me." ”
He liked to play chess with his uncle, not because he liked it much, but because he could hear a lot of stories about his mother, and he had never met the woman, but he tried his best to sketch her outline in his mind. He thought that she must be a very optimistic and assertive woman who has the courage to pursue happiness, and she is also a good wife and mother, because she sacrificed herself in order to keep herself alive. However, he only talked about what happened before his mother met his father, maybe in the eyes of the imperial uncle, he never admitted his father from beginning to end, or perhaps, the old things hurt people, so don't mention it. So about the story of his father and mother, he just heard some gossip in the community, maybe a little adulterated, but he felt that it didn't matter, what kind of people they were, he knew best in his own heart.
That day, Lin Chengzhi came back very late, and she only saw him in the back garden after dinner, looking very tired.
Fu Li chased after him and said with a smile: "You're back, have you had dinner?" ”
"Yes." As he spoke, he was about to leave, helped Mu Ne for a while, and then followed, "Did you encounter something?" ”
