Pan Chengzhong broke away from her hand and turned his face: "Don't make fun of me!" ”

"You kid, really! From childhood to adulthood, I can't say a single joke! Keep a calm face all day long, and don't smile much! ”

"I don't like to laugh!"

"After you get married, remember to change! Otherwise, the in-laws won't like it! ”

Pan Chengzhong listened and did not speak.

Mrs. Yang sighed and said, "Yun Zhong is gone, I haven't seen her for several days!" I don't know...... How is she doing now! Alas...... "The more she spoke, the quieter she became, the more she spoke, the more she missed, and tears fell down her face.

Cheng Zhong comforted: "Mother, don't cry! She is about to become the side concubine of His Royal Highness King Yong! Do you think she's doing well? ”

When Mrs. Yang heard this, she tried her best to pull out a smile that was not too ugly: "It's too!" After speaking, she took out the Geng posts: "Those Geng posts, I and the master have seen them!" With that, he placed it on the table.

Pan Chengzhong asked, "So...... Do you have the right person? ”

Madame Yang nodded at her.

Pan Chengzhong lowered his head and pushed Geng Ti with his hand: "Take all the Geng Ti away!" ”

"You're not watching?"

"Marriage matters, parents' orders, matchmakers' words, you have all decided for me, what else do I see!"

When Mrs. Yang heard this, her face was sad and a little sad, so she looked at her with pity and comforted: "Don't say that! My lord and I have put a lot of thought into your marriage! After several selections and several considerations, we selected a good man for you! It's your blessing that you can marry him! ”

"So...... Who is that man? ”

When Mrs. Yang saw that she was interested in that person, she smiled happily: "Dali Temple Shaoqing Feng Qingshi!" He is of good appearance and ...... conduct."

"Feng Qingshi......" Pan Chengzhong only heard this name, and fell into deep thought, as for what Mrs. Yang said, she did not know.

After this conversation, Pan Changping and Mrs. Yang decided that Feng Qingshi was their son-in-law, so they sent someone to hand over Pan Chengzhong's Geng post to Feng's mansion. As for the matter of getting married, they will discuss it at a later date.

These days, several major events have happened in the capital. General Wan died, and Emperor Shaochu deeply regretted it, and in recognition of his merits, he was posthumously awarded the title of the founding county prince. The northern border was pacified, the class teacher returned to the dynasty, and the emperor was overjoyed, so he set up a banquet in the Qinghe Hall and invited hundreds of officials.

Lin Jingmao was invited, and drove to the palace in a carriage. I don't know how long later, the carriage stopped, and Lin Jingmao got out of the carriage.

He looked around, the deep walls were heavy, the guards were tight, the red walls were golden tiles, and the slanting sun was shining at night, lining everything dazzling and brilliant, and the palace was graceful and dignified. He looked straight ahead, and what caught his eye was a towering big red palace door, which was inlaid with priceless night pearls, and there was a sandalwood gold plaque hanging on it, with two gilded characters of "North Gate" written on it.

After Lin Jingmao looked around, he retracted his gaze, entered the north gate, and went to the Qinghe Hall for a banquet.

When he arrived at the Qinghe Palace, the banquet was already full of people, and just as he was looking for a position, a voice came: "Brother Jingmao, this way!" ”

When he looked for prestige, he saw a man sitting reclining on a seat, with a handsome face, a tear mole under the corner of his eye, and a smile on his lips, looking at him with a smile.

Lin Jingmao saw clearly that the person who spoke was Lu Ming, so he slowly approached him: "Brother Ming, long time no see!" Don't come unharmed, huh? "He walks elegantly, as if he is not stained with a trace of wind and dust.

Lu Ming replied with a smile: "Shen'an...... Very safe! He shifted his position and sat upright: "Brother Jingmao, sit down!" ”

Lin Jingmao said with a smile: "Brother Ming, thank you!" With that, he sat down.

Lu Ming said: "We are brothers, and it is too rusty to say thanks!" He seemed to think of something, so he said: "By the way, you must have suffered a lot of injuries in the attack on Youzhou!" If it weren't for ......"

Before he finished speaking, Lin Jingmao interrupted him: "What has passed, don't mention it again!" I'm fine, you don't have to blame yourself! ”

Lu Ming smiled indifferently: "It's too!" Besides, it's too disappointing! ”

They looked at each other and smiled, but said no more.

While waiting for the emperor to arrive, the banquet was silent.

Lin Jingmao looked around, only to see that the ground was covered with vermilion and red dumplings to plant a flocky carpet with bird patterns, the firebirds were opposite, vivid, several big red pillars carved dragons and phoenixes, lifelike, the seats were arranged in an orderly manner, the figures were dotted, the jade plates on the table were stacked, containing delicacies and beautiful writings, and there were countless gold bottles, filled with Yaochi jade liquid. He looked up the steps, where there was a lacquered gold dragon throne with ruby sapphires inlaid with it.

There are so many delicate rivers and mountains, for thousands of years, there are always people who sacrifice their lives for it, and the dragon and the tiger do not stop, and they are used to seeing who kills the deer!

Thinking of this, he shook his head helplessly.

However, as he shook his head, a figure flashed out quickly. Seeing this, his eyes froze.

At this time, a light laugh belonging to a woman came, such a charming laughter, immediately attracted everyone's attention, people looked for prestige, and saw a delicate woman holding an old man in a dragon robe walking slowly.

Seeing this, everyone hurriedly saluted: "Weichen see the emperor!" See the concubine! ”

The emperor glanced at Feng Guifei, and the concubine smiled at him, so he waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Zhong Aiqing is flat!" ”

"Thank you, Emperor! Thank you, concubine! ”

The hall of loud voices echoed as they walked up the steps to the throne with a cheerful mood.

The emperor said: "The north is pacified, and the class teacher returns to the dynasty!" I am very happy, this banquet invites hundreds of officials, and you Aiqing have fun, Aiqing wants to drink to your heart's content! And he said, "Quick, play music......"

Before the emperor finished speaking, King Yong stood up: "Father, the son has something to say!" ”

The emperor waved his hand impatiently: "Say it quickly!" Listen! ”

Zhuo Zhouxing said sincerely: "Erchen wants Pan Yunzhong, the daughter of Pan Changping, to be a side concubine!" I beg my father's permission! ”

As soon as this remark came out, everyone talked about it.

"Although Pan Changping has a fortune, he is a businessman! How can the daughter of a merchant be the side concubine of His Royal Highness King Yong? ”

"Don't you know? Pan Changping's elder brother is Pan Yuechen, the doctor of the left counsel, and his two brothers are related to Lin Guogong, but they are just the name of the side concubines, how can they not be worthy! ”

“……”

"But His Royal Highness King Yong has not yet married the main concubine, so he will accept the side concubine, I'm afraid...... It's not in line! ”

The emperor listened to their discussions, his originally ruddy face had already turned the color of pig liver, and he pointed at them with a trembling hand: "You all shut up!" ”

As soon as these words came out, no one spoke.

The emperor asked, "Zhou Xing, why did you want to take that woman as a side concubine?" ”

Zhuo Zhouxing replied: "Erchen is pleased with her!" ”

Hearing this, everyone looked at him in amazement.

Feng Guifei caught a glimpse of the emperor's face becoming more and more gloomy, so she snuggled into his arms and said softly: "Your Majesty, don't be angry! ”

The emperor's brows stretched: "Okay!" I listen to my concubine! I'm not angry! He turned to him and said, "But...... I don't agree! ”

Zhuo Zhouxing said: "Ke Erchen has already taken her out of the Pan Mansion!" ”

The emperor was furious: "You ......"

Feng Guifei stroked his chest with her hand: "Your Majesty, on a festive day, you shouldn't be angry!" He added: "His Royal Highness King Yong has grown up, and it is time to find him a family affair!" But His Royal Highness already has a candidate in his heart, and the position of side concubine belongs to that woman, isn't that good? Lovers eventually become married, and if you can fulfill them today, it may not be a good thing! ”

The emperor eased his expression and rubbed his temples with his hands: "That's it!" I'm right! ”

"Son, thank your father, the emperor's permission!"

At this time, an old minister stood up: "King Yong has not yet married the main concubine, so he has to accept a side concubine, this ...... It's not etiquette! ”

The emperor said displeasedly: "Do you want me to take back what I have said? ”

The old minister said tremblingly: "Slightly ...... Wechen don't dare! ”

The emperor said again: "The rules are set by people!" No jokes! I've gotten it! On a festive day, what does it matter if I make an exception once! ”

As soon as the words fell, the ministers seconded the proposal, and no one raised any more objections.

"Someone! Played! ”

The sound of music sounded, and the red-clothed dancers danced into the hall, and there was a staggering of funds under the table.

Lin Jingmao didn't want to appreciate it, so he got up and said goodbye to Lu Ming and walked out of the hall.

He walked to a secluded gravel road, and a man was faintly visible sitting on a bench in the corridor in front of him. When he got closer, the person turned out to be Wan Chongkun: "Brother Chongkun, why are you here?" ”

Wan Chongkun turned around and saw someone coming, and said in surprise: "General Lin! ”

"Just call me Jingmao!"

Wan Chongkun reacted to what he asked just now: "My grandfather just passed away, and I'm not in the mood to attend the banquet!" Besides...... "There are some things that he can't say, so he hides them in his heart."

Lin Jingmao said ashamedly: "I'm sorry, I was abrupt just now!" ”

Wan Chongkun scratched his head: "It's okay!" I don't blame you! He asked, "If I report that matter to the emperor, what do you ......say?" and he stopped.

Lin Jingmao said: "Do you really think that the person who really killed your grandfather was Chen Yu? ”

Wan Chongkun stared at him closely, and the chill in his eyes could no longer be hidden: "What do you mean?" ”

Lin Jingmao looked directly at him and said with a smile: "Literally! He turned around, leaving only a back as firm as a bamboo: "Whether to report or not, you can decide for yourself!" With that, he left the place and returned to the Qinghe Palace.

Before he stepped into the Qinghe Palace, the sound of disputes in the hall reached his ears.

"Your Majesty, with all due respect, if Chen Yu is not arrested, the mastermind behind this case will not be captured!"

"But he's the number one professional killer on the list, who do you want to catch him!"

"Now that the government and the opposition are in turmoil, if he and his accomplices are not arrested, there will be hidden dangers, which will be detrimental to the imperial court!"

"The government and the opposition are in turmoil...... Do you mean to say that the emperor is mediocre and does not rule well! ”

"You...... Full of nonsense! ”

"Don't make any noise! According to my meaning, he should not be arrested, after all, he has so many friends in the rivers and lakes, and if he is arrested, he will offend the rivers and lakes......"

Hearing this, he stepped into the temple. Suddenly, he became the center of attention.

"By the way, you might as well ask General Lin's opinion!" A minister approached him.

Lin Jingmao smiled: "What is my opinion...... Unimportant! Then it's up to the emperor to decide! ”

The ministers were silent and silently turned their heads to look at the emperor.
