Chapter 499: Marriage
A trace of surprise flashed in the emperor's eyes, and he examined Aunt He again, wondering in his heart whether Aunt He's words were credible and whether the so-called loyalty Gu was really usable.
Aunt He saw the emperor's hesitation, she raised her head and looked directly at the emperor and said, "What else does the emperor have to worry about?" The slave used his life to raise a loyal Gu for the emperor, and the life of the slave's granddaughter is in the hands of the emperor, and after the slave dies, no one will know about the loyal Gu anymore. Your Majesty, it will take half a year to raise a loyal Gu child, and by that time, the little county lord of the Zhongshun Mansion will be able to get married! ”
The emperor's eyes flashed, he lowered his eyes silently, and sat on the chair in a daze for I don't know how long before he heard a long sigh.
"What do you need, tell the royal guard guarding you, he'll get it for you!" After saying this, the emperor got up and left the secret room, never looking at Aunt He again.
Aunt He looked at the back of the emperor leaving, a triumphant smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and said in her heart: Lin Ruhai, you wait, soon your Lin family will fall into the abyss of no return, don't want to get rid of the shackles of loyalty Gu for generations!
This night, the emperor had insomnia, and the next morning he was in a trance, and several times he was pulled back from the loss of consciousness by Shi Gonggong, and the courtiers were very strange, and they all guessed in their hearts whether the emperor's dragon body was sick.
After three days in such a mess, the emperor probably had already figured out some things, so he quickly returned to his previous state, which made the courtiers even more puzzled.
When Lin Ruhai received the news about the emperor in the palace, he and Jia Min had already arrived in Xiangxi and were looking for the entrance to the Lin family's secret land in the mountains.
"The emperor suddenly has such a strange behavior, could it be that something happened to Aunt He's side?" Jia Min asked.
"I don't know! Our people have never been able to get close to the emperor's bedroom, and we don't know what the situation is in the secret room! Lin Ruhai sighed, this feeling of not being mastered by himself made Lin Ruhai feel very uneasy, he always had an ominous premonition, as if something bad was about to happen.
"Forget it! Don't worry about the emperor's side for now, let's find the entrance to the secret land as soon as possible. ”
"Hmmm! I know! Looking at the terrain here, it is very similar to my impression, if nothing else, it should be there soon! Lin Ruhai also decided to put aside the emperor's affairs for the time being, and quickly put all the treasures belonging to the Lin family in the secret land into Jia Min's space.
The husband and wife took more than 20 secret guards to Xiangxi this time, and left these secret guards on the periphery before entering the mountain, and still only brought the dark seven and dark ten who had been following them to protect them in the dark. After they entered the mountain, they walked for about five or six days, and at last they were not far from the entrance of the secret land.
Behind a very hidden cave, Lin Ruhai and Jia Min entered a circular valley, and after a stone mechanism in the middle was opened by Lin Ruhai, a long stone staircase leading to the ground was revealed.
Lin Ruhai and Jia Min walked down the stone steps and came to a very large secret room, which was filled with mahogany chests, each of which was filled with palm-sized gold bricks. Jia Min was no longer surprised, she had already heard Lin Ruhai say about the wealth owned by the Lin family, so no matter how much gold and silver treasure there was, Jia Min was not shocked.
After the husband and wife had emptied all the mahogany chests in the secret land, they quickly came out of the valley. As soon as they appeared, Dark Seven immediately appeared in front of them.
"Master! Something is wrong! 100,000 urgent! Dark Seven handed Lin Ruhai the letter that Qi Lan had just received from Hai Dongqing.
Lin Ruhai and Jia Min glanced at each other after listening to Dark Qi's words, Lin Ruhai quickly took the letter and read it, and when he saw the content on it, his face suddenly changed greatly.
"What's wrong?" Jia Min frowned and asked, with a faint bad premonition in his heart.
"It's the news of the capital that Qi Lan has transmitted, the emperor issued a holy decree yesterday to marry the little county lord and master of the Zhongshun Palace, and the little county lord of the Zhongshun Palace, will marry into the Wenyuan Mansion as the wife of the Marquis of Wenyuan!" Dark Seven said in a deep voice.
"What! This...... The emperor would suddenly make such a will? Jia Min couldn't believe it, and snatched the letter from Lin Ruhai's hand.
"Your Majesty, this is going to make a move on our Lin family!" Lin Ruhai's serious coldness was cold, and his voice was like a thousand-year-old ice, which made people tremble unconsciously.
After reading the letter, Jia Min angrily tore the letter to pieces after a few clicks, "It's too deceitful!" It's too much of a deception! ”
"Master! Mother of the House! We can't stay here for a long time, the eunuch who announced the decree is only afraid that he is already on the way to Yangzhou! Dark Seven reminded.
Lin Ruhai held one of Jia Min's hands tightly, looked at Jia Min with a firm look in his eyes and said, "Min'er! Believe me, I will never let you suffer such humiliation! ”
Jia Min's eyes flashed with tears, and he bit his lower lip and nodded vigorously.
Lin Ruhai glanced at Jia Min deeply, took her hand and went out first. It is true that there is not much time for them to waste here, they have to return to Yangzhou before the eunuchs arrive in Yangzhou, and they must not let the emperor know that they have left Yangzhou, let alone let the emperor find out where they are.
……
Outside the imperial study of the imperial palace in the capital, Jia Daishan was kneeling outside the door and begging to see the emperor. He had been kneeling here for a whole day and night, but the emperor had never seen him.
Gonggong Shi really couldn't stand it anymore, so he walked up to Jia Daishan and persuaded in a low voice: "Rong Guogong should go back!" The emperor has already made up his mind this time, and the eunuchs who announced the decree also set off for Yangzhou yesterday, this matter is absolutely impossible to recover, you kneeling here will only make the emperor dissatisfied with you, and you can't change anything at all! Rong Guogong, just an ignorant little girl, with such a deep relationship between Lord Lin and the county lord of Huigui, she can't compete with the lord of Huigui when she marries, she is a flat wife, in fact, she is a concubine, and her identity will always be short to the lord of Huigui! Now that the county lord of Huigui has three sons, do you still need to be afraid of that little county lord? ”
Jia Daishan knelt there stubbornly, and he didn't seem to listen to Gonggong Shi's words at all, silently expressing his anger and dissatisfaction!
Gonggong Shi didn't know why the emperor suddenly issued such a holy decree, which shocked the entire capital. Even Zhong Shunwan himself was very puzzled, he just pleaded for his little daughter once in front of the queen mother, and he didn't have the courage to go to the emperor to talk about it, how could the emperor know the little daughter's mind and make a holy decree to marry the little daughter?
