Chapter 15: The Great Fox of the Forest
Tao Yao thought that after returning to the mountain, Lin Rui would come to find her, but she didn't, and when she returned to the room, she fell asleep in a daze.
Two more days passed, and it was time to return to the palace.
On the day of leaving the mountain, the master said bitterly: "Little Fourteen, your birthday is approaching, don't be childlike." ”
Tao Yao responded promised, for so many years, although the master and his old man always joked about her, but he also treated her very well, and he was very spoiled.
Otherwise, how could she be allowed to run away again and again, and each time it was only a verbal punishment?
After saying goodbye, the master let her go down the mountain with peace of mind. In fact, Lin Rui will follow him when he returns to the palace this time, and he will not be able to turn the sky when he is dry.
Yunshan is actually not far from the imperial city, but one day, the group returned to the palace, along the way, if there are not five imperial sisters, Taoyao can return to the palace in half a day.
However, with Lin Rui on the way, Tao Yao did not dare to "make times", and behaved very well-behaved.
Then Lin Rui also returned to the Lin Mansion.
Since that time, Lin Rui rarely mentions the matter of Lin Mansion to Tao Yao, and she also knows that it is a scar in his heart, he doesn't want to reveal it, and she doesn't want to think about it.
After returning to the palace, Tao Yao followed the five emperor sisters to meet her father first. She hadn't seen her for months, and she noticed that there seemed to be a few more wrinkles in the corners of her father's eyes.
When have these years been spared?
After a visit, the father left Tao Yao alone, and although the imperial sister was curious, she could only listen to the order.
After there were only Tao Yao and his father in the palace, I only heard him say: "Tao Yao, I heard that you escaped again." ”
Tao Yao knew that she was wrong, so she obeyed: "The son knows his mistake, please punish his father." ”
"I don't mean to punish you, it's just that you're about to become an adult, so don't be so naughty in the future."
"Erchen knows." She said lightly.
Then, her father told Tao Yao a few words, and her heart was also very moved. However, for the first time, she had something extremely curious, and that was about her mother.
So she tried to open her mouth and asked: "Father, the son has lost his mother since he was born, I don't know what kind of person my mother is?" ”
Father obviously didn't expect her to ask such a question, first startled, and then his thoughts drifted far away.
After a long time, he opened his mouth in a low voice: "Although your mother concubine is just a commoner, she has moved many young talents. She was arrogant and longed for freedom, but I couldn't stand her, locked her in this palace wall, and made her unhappy. ”
Tao Yao listened to her father describe her mother and concubine, she thought that she loved her father deeply, otherwise how could such a person who yearns for freedom be willing to stay in this palace wall and give birth to himself for him?
"She yearns for a lifetime and a couple, if it weren't for the fact that she met my ......" only heard his father say that his voice was a little choked, and his feelings for his mother were really deep.
"Father, the birth of your son is a testimony of your love." If Tao Yao was in the past, she would definitely not be able to say such words, but looking at her father's sincerity, she couldn't be insensitive.
The father was relieved a lot, and felt a little less hurt at Tao Yao: "Xiao'er, I must protect you for the rest of your life." ”
"My son knows my father's favor, and I will try my best to protect myself." Tao Yao has always been self-reliant and independent, she never needs to be protected by others, and she can manage herself well.
"You go down and rest, if there is anything you need to add, tell the people below, this is your home, don't be restrained."
The word home is very unfamiliar to Tao Yao.
When she was still in modern times, she was an orphan, and when she grew up, she had no fixed place to live and wandered around. Now that her father is talking about this home, it makes her feel a little warm.
After returning to the dormitory, Xiaolan was already ready to take a bath, and sure enough, she understood her very well.
After a bit of freshening, the meal was also prepared, but she really didn't know why, how did Lin Rui come to this harem forbidden place during this meal time.
At this time, he was sitting in front of Tao Yao, eating his meal politely.
I only heard him say seriously: "I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to eat without me, so I came." ”
A few lines of black lines appeared in front of Tao Yao's forehead, phew! She eats alone, so it's fragrant! Lin Rui, a fake and immodest fox.
However, she didn't bother to bother with him, and ate by herself, the imperial kitchen in the palace seemed to have changed, and the taste of the food was a little better than before.
After a bowl of rice was wiped out, Tao Yao was about to let Xiaolan add rice, but Lin Fox stretched out his hand to stop him: "Eat less." ”
Tao Yao was a little angry, she could bear what he did badly, but if he didn't let her eat, she really couldn't help it!
Ignoring his obstruction, Tao Yao stretched out his hand to hold the meal, but he snatched it away.
Holding back the unhappiness in his heart, Tao Yao's anger was obvious, Lin Fox was too much!
So she said loudly and with a little temper: "Senior brother! ”
"Foodie!" As he spoke, he scratched the wing of her nose and smiled a little.
An inexplicable person like Lin Rui is really annoying, especially when he actually stopped her from eating!
In the next second, I only heard him explain: "Save some stomach, and you will have something better to eat when you go out later." ”
The corners of Tao Yao's mouth twitched, and she glanced at him, can this guy make people live in peace?
Since he didn't allow it, she couldn't eat it anymore, so she had to wait for him to say something more delicious.
But he said he would go out later, where would he go? Why go? This person is really a little unguessable.
Tao Yao thought that he would take him out of the main gate openly, but he didn't want him to fly out together with her, and he dared to break in like this.
Tao Yao shook his head at the palace guards in his heart, they were too disrespectful, and no one could find out that this person came and went freely.
Half an hour later, he took Tao Yao's hand and entered the Lin Mansion.
Tao Yao couldn't react for a while, what Lin Rui said would be better to eat in a while is to come to Lin Mansion, what kind of medicine is he selling in this gourd?
As soon as the old butler saw him, he politely shouted, "The young master is back." ”
Lin Rui also nodded pretendically, and went to the main hall with Tao Yao, where Lin Xiang was sitting at the dinner table and waiting.
When Lin Xiang saw Tao Yao, his expression was very surprised: "Rui'er, Seventh Princess, what is this?" ”
Lin Rui asked Tao Yao to sit down seriously, and said unruly: "Father, Xiao Yao is my junior sister." ”
Yes, for Lin Rui, Tao Yao's other identities don't matter, she is just his junior sister, the junior sister who is always bullied by him.
Although Lin Xiang was surprised, he quickly calmed down, and it was not a loss to be the prime minister of a country.
"Rui'er, you just said that you went out and brought someone back, just to invite the seventh princess?"
He familiarly sandwiched the food for me and said, "Yes, I haven't officially met my father yet." ”
Tao Yao sweated a lot in her heart, obviously she had seen her father's birthday banquet, but she couldn't mention it, otherwise she would have to pull out about those marriages that she didn't have.
"Hugh is messing around! The princess should have been in the palace for a good time. Lin Xiang was a little angry.
"It's okay, Lin Xiang is the father of his senior brother after all, and it is normal for me to come to visit, and my father will not blame him." Tao Yao didn't know why she opened her mouth to explain to him, she was really a good person.
Lin Rui listened and smiled at her, very angry.
Although the meals here are carefully prepared, Tao Yao has no appetite, why did Lin Rui bring her to Lin Mansion, she really felt inexplicable.
I didn't see her move a few bites after a meal, maybe Lin Xiang looked at her like this, and felt that she still had the appearance of a lady.
Although Tao Yao has no appetite, Lin Rui seems to be eating very well and is in a very good mood. The corners of Taoyao's mouth twitched, fox!
