Chapter Ninety-Six: Suspicious and Heartless
Because she was resident in the palace, the Queen Mother allowed her to bring a personal attendant.
On the carriage, Lin Jinwen glanced at Mo Feng and the other palace maids sitting on one side, but she wanted to explain to Mo Feng that she had no chance, so she could only be silent all the way until the carriage stopped in front of the palace.
The Queen Mother Xu got out of the carriage in order to show her attention, and the shoulders in the palace were already waiting.
The father-in-law who passed the decree before stood on the side with a smile and said, "Lord Chunhe, don't let down the queen mother's good intentions, please." β
Lin Jinwen looked at the small sedan chair carried by the four people in front of her, and didn't say anything, and slowly went up holding Mo Feng's hand.
To go to the Empress Dowager's Cining Palace, you have to pass through the trail on the side of the Heart Cultivation Palace, and when you pass, someone in the Heart Cultivation Palace just came out, followed by a lot of palace maids who were waiting.
She didn't pay much attention to it, but after a quick glance, she immediately recognized the person, isn't this Xue Wenxin, the niece of Jiacairen, how could she appear here?
"That lady seems to be familiar." Lin Jinwen paused, but still asked.
Gonggong Mo looked at Yan and said with a smile: "It's a newly canonized nobleman." β
"Noble heart......" Lin Jinwen is sure that it is Xue Wenxin, but what is even more strange should be the attitude of this Mo Gonggong, he doesn't seem to be angry at all, could it be that the Queen Mother also allowed the emperor to summon a woman who is very similar to the late Yin Concubine to serve in the inner palace?
Gonggong Mo looked at her thoughtfully, smiled and said softly: "Lord Chunhe, the things in this palace are like the days of June, changing rapidly, you just look at it, the harem has the rules of the harem, and it is not allowed for others to say more." β
"Thank you father-in-law for your advice." Lin Jinwen knew that he was selling well, and she also accepted his affection.
Grandpa Mo saw that she was an understanding person, and he didn't say more.
All the way to Cining Palace, perhaps because of the scorching heat of midsummer, I didn't see the nobles and masters in the palace come out all the way, and the whole palace was very quiet.
When she arrived at Cining Palace, the sedan chair stopped a few steps away, Mo Feng stepped forward to support her, and then walked inside together, but when she arrived at the gate of Cining Palace, the grandmother inside greeted her and said, "It's the county lord of Chunhe, the queen mother has just rested now, you can wait here for a while." β
Mo Feng's eyebrows tightened slightly, could it be that the Queen Mother deliberately made things difficult?
Lin Jinwen nodded in response, and honestly stood at the gate of Cining Palace.
Grandpa Mo glanced at her and left, and the grandmother also went in, leaving only Lin Jin's master and servant standing at the entrance of the hall.
Mo Feng and the others left, and then said in a low voice: "Miss, is the Queen Mother deliberately giving you a horse?" β
"She can't do that, and now she is doing it mostly because she wants to be tempted." Lin Jinwen watched the sun get hotter and hotter, and only regretted that she didn't let Po make a bowl of iced tea when she came. It's just that whether the Queen Mother wants to test herself or use herself to test others will have to wait and see.
The master and servant stood for half an hour, the sun reached the very center, and the figures were only a small group under their feet, and Mo Feng couldn't help Lin Jinwen if he wanted to shade the sun. It's easy to say that she has a kung fu foundation, but no matter how smart the young lady is, she is just a weak woman, she stood straight under the scorching sun for half an hour, and her face was already pale, and Lin Jinwen was also holding on to it in one breath, she wanted to see what the Queen Mother wanted to do.
At this time, in the temple of nourishing the heart.
The emperor looked at Zhao Huaiyan, who had repeatedly played the wrong chess pieces on the opposite side, thought about it, and threw the chess pieces back into the clay pot on one side, and said: "You care so much about a Lin Jinwen, the Queen Mother just let her bask in the sun, and you are absent-minded when you play chess with me." β
"It's rare to have a confidant in the floating life, and Erchen wants to cherish it." Zhao Huaiyan said.
When the emperor heard this, the hand on his lap tightened slightly, and he only got off the bed and slowly walked out of the hall with his hands behind his back, and Zhao Huaiyan immediately followed.
Walking to the corridor outside the hall, the emperor stood in front of the steps, looking at the magnificent palace not far from the front of the Yangxin Palace, with green tiles and red walls, noble and graceful, and said with a smile: "If I take the chair in the front hall and exchange this woman with you, you must be unwilling, right?" β
"What my father said, is a confidante a stumbling block?" He wouldn't exchange Jin Maid for that son at all, how could such a position destined to be lonely and old age compare to his sister-in-law.
When the emperor heard this, he smiled: "Early this morning, King Jing went to accompany the Queen Mother, and wanted to marry Lin Jin's wife, but now you are confused for her again, is it wrong for me to say that she is a red face and a curse?" β
"Even if it is a disaster water, it is also a disaster water that the sons love." Zhao Huaiyan said lightly, looking at the scorching sun, only thinking about whether her thin body could hold it.
"But she made you brothers fight, and you love it too?" The emperor's words were mixed with other meanings.
Father-in-law An on the side listened to it, and they all sweated for Zhao Huaiyan, if his answer was yes, the emperor would definitely not let Miss Lin go.
Zhao Huaiyan has always known the emperor's thoughts, and when he heard the words, he only said: "My father once said that a good man is ambitious in all directions, if he is in love with a woman, he will lose his mind, if he is greedy for a brother's woman, he is shameless, shameless and unambitious. Whoever wants to fight is to rob. β
After saying this, Father-in-law An couldn't help but secretly give him a thumbs up, not only answered the emperor's question head-on, but also did not say anything about fratricidal brothers.
After listening to this, the emperor laughed out loud for a long time: "A good kinship cannot be separated, and a good 'fight' and 'grab'." After speaking, he turned his head and patted him on the shoulder, sighed, and said: "Okay, she is afraid that she will faint after being exposed for so long, you go and take a look, it is my own imperial sister who took the initiative to adopt, and I, who is an uncle, will not be so ruthless." β
Zhao Huaiyan saw that he really had no other suspicions, so he bowed and retreated, and walked quickly in the direction of Cining Palace.
Lin Jinwen felt that the stars were already rising in front of her, could it be that the Queen Mother was planning to burn her to death?
Just as she was thinking, someone finally came out of it, but now she felt that the person seemed to have a lot of shadows, so that she couldn't see clearly for a while.
"Miss, salute quickly." Mo Feng stepped forward to support her and said.
Lin Jinwen blinked her eyes hard before she saluted slowly, and then heard the figure say, "You are also tired, do you want to go to my palace to rest for a while?" β
There was a bit of gnashing of teeth in her words, Lin Jinwen barely saw that the person who came was actually a noble person who she hadn't seen for a long time, and she still didn't treat herself like in her previous life, she married Zhao Kan in her previous life, and gave everything for their mother and son, but in the end, she had to abandon her......
Lin Jinwen couldn't help but smile lightly: "The courtiers are here to see the Queen Mother, so they won't go to the Niangniang Palace to sit." β
"Is it another trick to get away with it?" Seeing her refusal, the honorable man sneered.
"The courtiers don't understand what Niangniang means......" Lin Jinwen heard the smell of gunpowder, and secretly bit the tip of her tongue, and the huge pain and smell of blood spread, making her sober up a lot in an instant.
The honorable man smiled again: "Don't understand? It's just because you don't understand this sentence that you let King Jing die or live for you? I have seen all kinds of women in this palace for so many years, and I don't care about your little carving skills at all. As a woman, you have to be embarrassed to have fun maneuvering between different men......"
"Niangniang said this well, King Jing didn't care that Erchen was his eldest brother, and coveted the eldest brother's wife, which was really shameful, and asked Niangniang to go back and teach him."
Before Lin Jinwen could speak, an indifferent male voice came, and then Mo Feng took the water mixed with the anti-heatstroke medicine and gave her to drink.
A bowl of anti-heatstroke medicine went down to her stomach, and Zhao Huaiyan's body was standing beside her with a cold air, she suddenly felt a lot refreshed, and when she looked up, she found that Jinggui's face was dark.
The honorable man sneered: "Since King Ning has determined that she is your future princess, then let people be optimistic, how can Kan Er covet her with her charming posture every day?" β
"The princess of this king, you can go wherever you want, whoever dares to covet it, this king will gouge out his eyes." Zhao Huaiyan said indifferently, glanced at Gonggong Mo who was staring at the door, and said, "Please pass on the Queen Mother, this king asks to see." β
Gonggong Mo knew that although the Queen Mother didn't like King Ning, but the emperor liked it, and she wouldn't refute his face too much, so she immediately went in to spread the word, and by the way, she replied to the matter here as it was.
The Queen Mother just finished drinking the tea to cool off the heat, and when she heard the words, her face turned a little colder: "Is it really this Lin Jin's demon and ghost possession?" King Ning, who has always been cold, can protect her so much, and even Kan'er, who has always been not on women, is obsessed with her. β
The grandmother on one side said softly: "The Queen Mother has this doubt, it is better to invite Master Huijue into the palace and let him take a look in secret." β
"Go back and call him in." After the Queen Mother finished speaking, she looked outside the hall and said: "Go and pass the order, just say that the mourning family is singing Buddha in the small Buddha Hall, and they will not be seen, Lin Jinwen arranged to live in the side hall of Cining Palace, and King Ning asked him to go back." β
Mama responded, carefully beckoned someone to help her to the small Buddha hall, and then went out to spread the word.
Zhao Huaiyan expected that the Queen Mother would not see her early in the morning, and she was not surprised to see her grandmother come to pass the word, so she only said: "It will be the Queen Mother's birthday in a few days, and the king of Japan will come over every day to greet her." β
Mama's eyes flashed slightly, she looked at Lin Jinwen, who was sunburned on one side, nodded in response, and then hurriedly said to the eunuch on the side: "Send the county lord down to rest first, and then send the imperial doctor to take a look." also blamed the slave maid, the queen mother forgot that the county lord was still waiting outside, and the slave and maid also forgot to remind her, and asked the county lord to punish her. β
When Lin Jinwen heard what she said, where did she dare to punish her, everyone knew it, and only smiled: "Mama is polite." β
Seeing that she didn't take advantage of King Ning to protect her like this and make trouble unreasonably, Mama felt a little relieved, and immediately asked people to help her down.
When leaving, the honorable person also deliberately looked at Zhao Huaiyan and chuckled: "It is rare for King Ning to have this filial piety. β
Zhao Huaiyan ignored her, glanced at her lightly, and turned to leave.
He wouldn't have taken her lightly before, but now that the words have been spoken, there is no need to pay attention to it.
Mama saw it in her eyes, bowed silently and retreated, and then the noble man returned to his Yonghe Palace angrily.
There are no outsiders in Yonghe Palace, and those who are there are her henchmen.
Zhao Kan saw her come back, and hurriedly put down the teacup in his hand and stepped forward: "Mother, how is it?" β
"What do you think? You don't know Zhao Huaiyan's temperament, it seems to be a stuffy gourd, once you get in a hurry, you will bite your bones when you turn around. Jing Guiren said this in order to vent his anger, and after he finished speaking, he calmed down a little and said to him: "Zhao Huaiyan will be your biggest opponent, and now many of our people in the Beijing officials have been disposed of, although Zhao Huaiyan does not have Lin Luzhi's military support, but there is still a Xu family, we must not be careless." β
"My father favors him, what can we do, it's better to ...... Lin Jinwen first"
"Don't mention her again!" Seeing that he was still thinking about Lin Jinwen, the honorable man said angrily.
Zhao Kan's face was slightly gloomy: "Mother, concubine, son-in-law, ......"
The honorable man looked at him and was really angry: "If something happens to you this time, I will send you to the southwest and let you fight with your uncle!" β
Zhao Kan saw that she was full of anger, and his heart was also angry, but he resented that she had never considered his thoughts.
He stood silently on one side and stopped talking, his words to her were more like his left ear going in and out of his right ear, and what he never forgot in his heart was still Lin Jinwen's beautiful body last night......
The scorching sun of midsummer is especially flowering, as if after a heavy rain, the flowers that were still delicate a few days ago will be broken and withered, leaving only a few petals and flower bones, wilting in the sun.
The Luo family was arrested, Wang Yushi was 'seriously ill', and Mrs. Wang's thoughts were all pinned on Zhao Huaiyan, and she didn't even bother to take care of the flowers and plants that she often served.
She couldn't sit still in the front hall, walking back and forth, until the night fell, and then she saw the figure of the little maid running briskly under the corridor.
When they arrived, Mrs. Wang said eagerly: "How is it?" What did His Royal Highness King Ning say? β
"His Royal Highness King Ning said that this matter is not in a hurry, even if it is a rebellion with conclusive evidence, because the Queen Mother's birthday is approaching, he will not be beheaded immediately, there is still time to maneuver, and he will not tolerate loyal ministers being falsely accused." The little guy repeated the original words.
After hearing this, Mrs. Wang seemed to have taken a reassuring pill, and her heart fell back into her stomach.
After the little guy finished speaking, he suddenly caught a glimpse of someone behind the screen on one side of the cat leaning over and eavesdropping, and hurriedly said, "Who is there?" β
Mrs. Wang was startled and hurriedly walked over, but only saw a gray corner of her clothes.
"Madam, do you want someone to check it out?"
"Well, what I just said isn't a secret." When Madame Wang recognized the man, her heart fell to the bottom.
Seeing that she didn't pursue it, the little maid didn't say anything more, and bowed and withdrew.
Mrs. Wang thought about it, but got up and went to Wang Huiyuan's courtyard.
At this time, King Ning's mansion.
Zhao Huaiyan stood in the peach forest with his hands in his hands, and only after a while did he speak: "Is it really Zhao Tian who is planning and arranging?" β
"Yes."
The neatly dressed woman standing behind him replied in a low voice.
He looked indifferent, and after a while, he asked again: "Can there be people from Western Xia interfering?" β
"Not yet."
"No......" Zhao Huaiyan looked ahead faintly, as if he was in deep thought.
The people behind him were already accustomed to the habit of him popping out a sentence for a long time, quietly waiting for the command.
After a while, I heard him say lightly: "What you asked you to prepare, are you ready?" β
"The preparation is ready, but the prince, isn't it too ...... to lead him out of the city in this way?"
"Despicable?" Zhao Huaiyan said the words she didn't dare to say.
The people behind were silent, and they admitted it.
Zhao Huaiyan turned to look at her with her eyebrows lowered, and glanced at Gao Yu on one side: "You can do this matter yourself." β
"Yes." High endowment.
"And ......" Zhao Huaiyan looked at the woman in front of him and said, "Transfer her back to Western Xia." β
"Lord Wang!" The woman was horrified in her heart, and hurriedly looked up at him: "Is there something wrong with the subordinates?" β
Zhao Huaiyan ignored her and walked away directly.
The woman wanted to catch up, but was stopped by Gao Yu. Gao Yu looked at her full of incomprehension and grievances, and sighed lightly: "Princess Xianyue just asked you to serve, it's normal that you don't understand." You don't know how many despicable things King Jing has done to the prince, the reason why the prince is like this today is also because he ...... last night" Gao Yu paused, afraid of being beaten by the prince, so he didn't dare to say it, but said: "Sun Tzu's art of war has thirty-six strategies, each of which is trickery, can it be regarded despicable?" β
"I'm just ......"
"You've been following the princess, hasn't the princess taught you?" Gao Yu is puzzled, people like Princess Xianyue will not understand these is.
"I ...... The princess will not let the prince be reduced to condescension and dignity to do such things. The woman was a little unconvinced, and in the final analysis, she still complained about Lin Jinwen.
Gao Yu knew that she had a tendon, and he didn't bother to tell her more, so he sent her away directly before going to do his own business. However, this time King Jing dared to go crazy, and he had to accept the price of going crazy.
At night, the bright moon was already hanging high in the sky, and the cold moonlight poured down, as if the summer heat had disappeared a lot.
Lin Jinwen simply washed up and lay on the unfamiliar bed, looking at the top of the tent, she only felt very awake, and she couldn't sleep. In the Lin Mansion, she could still get up to read a book or go out for a walk, within the deep palace walls, her every move was watched by strict rules, and the night in the palace was even so silent that she could hear the leaves of the camellia tree outside the house being blown together by the wind.
She thought, what if it was Huaiyan who won the throne in the end? Is she going to be imprisoned forever with him in the golden cage of the palace?
She thought about it, and she didn't know how long it took before she finally fell asleep.
The next day, before dawn, the grandmother came to serve and freshen up, she cheered up and got up, and Mo Feng immediately came in to serve, but changed into a palace maid's regular clothes, and the queen mother prepared a royal blue dress for her. She didn't like this color very much, but she couldn't say no, so she could only be dressed by four or five palace maids, and combed her complicated bun before she went to ask the Queen Mother for peace.
The Queen Mother didn't embarrass her again this time, let her ask for peace, and then gave her a seat to sit aside.
came early in the morning to ask for peace, and Princess Xuan, Princess Xuan came over with the little county king, the little county king is only a few months old, it is the time when she is cute and cute, the toothless mouth is babbling, the fat is liked, and the queen mother is even more rare to smile.
Lin Jin's wife pretended to be transparent and sat quietly waiting for this morning, but it didn't take long for her grandmother to walk in with a hesitant face.
Seeing her like this, the Queen Mother asked lightly, "What's the matter, you're sad." β
"The slave is born with this bitter face, and it is rare that the Queen Mother does not dislike it." Mama laughed hurriedly.
"Alright, let's have something to say." The Queen Mother returned the little county king to Princess Xuan, who was waiting on the side, and said.
Mama hurriedly responded and said, "It's the nobleman who came to ask for peace, and now he is waiting outside, and he personally stewed mung bean soup for the Queen Mother to cool off." β
When the Queen Mother heard this, her face remained unchanged: "It's rare for her to bother, but why didn't you tell her that the mourning family has not been feeling good these days, and the imperial doctor has explained that it is not suitable to eat these cold things, so you let her take them back." β
"Yes." Mama immediately went down.
When Lin Jinwen heard this, she only thought that Xue Wenxin was trying her best to please the Queen Mother, so she heard Princess Xuan smile on the side: "This noble-hearted person is persistent, the emperor asked her to come to greet the Queen Mother every day, and she really doesn't fall for a day." β
When the Queen Mother heard this, her calm face sank a little.
Princess Xuan knew that she had said the wrong thing, so she hurriedly lowered her head to tease the child, and she didn't dare to say it again.
When Lin Jinwen heard this, she felt strange in her heart, the emperor asked Xue Wenxin to come over every day, it was impossible not to know that the Queen Mother didn't like her, but she had to ask Xue Wenxin to do this every day, what did she plan to do? And seeing that the Queen Mother was so unhappy, she refused to even meet in a perfunctory manner, and she didn't even give the emperor's face, could it be that there was a gap between their mother and son......
Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Princess Xuan say: "I heard that the county lord Chunhe is good at medical skills, and the imperial grandmother is not in good health, why don't you let the county lord Chunhe show you?" β
The Queen Mother frowned: "The body of the mourning family is taken care of by God, so there is no need for her to come and see it." I'm afraid you'll be annoyed with the mourning family at this time, so retreat. β
Princess Xuan responded with a smile, then turned her head to look at Lin Jinwen and said with a smile: "The county lord of Chunhe must not be used to it when he first came to the palace." β
"I have a heavy temperament, I don't like to move around anywhere, but I don't feel uncomfortable, thank you for the princess's care." Lin Jinwen didn't know what she meant, but she knew that she couldn't offend the Queen Mother now, and she had to think about the Queen Mother in everything she said and did.
"That's good, I heard that you almost fainted from heat stroke yesterday, if King Ning knew about it, he would definitely be angry." Princess Xuan said with a smile, as if she didn't know that Zhao Huaiyan had been here yesterday.
Lin Jinwen looked at her eyes full of smiles when she looked at herself, and her heart was slightly cold, did she deliberately want to say this to the Queen Mother.
"No matter what His Royal Highness King Ning says, he is a junior, how can he be angry with the Queen Mother, the princess is too worried. Although King Xuan and you are not close to His Royal Highness King Ning, they will not guess that he is not virtuous or filial, right? Lin Jinwen said this with personal anger, and after speaking, she looked at Princess Xuan's face with a smile and became embarrassed, but she only thought that she was embarrassed by not noticing.
Seeing this, the Queen Mother glanced at her lovely great-grandson and raised her hand: "Let's go down." β
"Yes." Lin Jinwen saluted in a proper manner, and then retreated sideways.
Princess Xuan also followed out with a red face.
When they were all gone, the Queen Mother sank her face: "Princess Xuan is so stupid, she can't help the fourth child, but don't let the little county king follow suit." β
"Don't worry, Queen Mother, Princess Xuan is also from a big family, and she knows it." The grandmother on the side persuaded.
"Counted?" The Queen Mother remembered her deflated appearance just now, and shook her head: "Even a teenage girl can't say it, it's stupid, and she dares to tell King Ning in front of the mourning family, and I'm not afraid that he won't recognize his relatives as soon as his face is cold." β
When Mama heard this, she hurriedly lowered her head and didn't dare to listen more.
Seeing this, the Queen Mother didn't bother to say, "Find time to call Master Huijue." After speaking, he took the hand of the palace maid on the side and went to the small Buddha hall.
Lin Jinwen came out with Princess Xuan all the way and sent her to the gate of Cining Palace, and then said, "The courtiers send the princess." β
"The county lord doesn't have to be polite, but this concubine really can't imagine that the county lord hasn't married King Ning yet, and you are so affectionate, it's really rare." Princess Xuan looked at her, she had long since lost her embarrassment, and her smile was gentle, as if nothing had happened to her.
Seeing this, Lin Jinwen knew that she had bad intentions and didn't refute it again, so as to save herself from causing more trouble, she only lowered her eyes and said softly: "Thank you princess for your praise." β
Princess Xuan saw that she was obedient, so she glanced at her coldly and left with the little prince in her arms.
Mo Feng whispered to the side: "Miss, let's avoid her in the future." β
"How to avoid it." Soon she will marry Huaiyan, and once she marries, Princess Xuan will have to call herself a sister-in-law, which is really indescribable.
Mo Feng is also dumb.
However, after sending Princess Xuan away, they obediently went back to the side hall and were bored, and there were honorable people in the harem who were eyeing them, so it was safe here.
It's just that Lin Jinwen didn't expect that the honorable people would not have time to trouble her at this time.
Yonghe Palace.
Jing Guiren looked at the little eunuch who was talking back and forth, and his face turned blue with anger: "You say it again!" β
"Yes, Niangniang, His Royal Highness King Jing rode out of the city early this morning, but he was framed and mixed with a group of barbarians, and the guards who patrolled the city happened to bump into him, and at this time someone from the Criminal Department personally wrote an excerpt to play the emperor, His Royal Highness is afraid that he will not be able to wash it this time if he jumps into the Yellow River!"
"Why did King Jing suddenly leave the city?" Jinggui was so angry that his head was dizzy, and he just said yesterday that he should let Zhao Kan be careful, but he didn't expect something to happen today.
The little eunuch shuddered and took out a letter from his arms and presented it with both hands: "This is sent by King Jing's Mansion." β
The honorable man got up in person, stepped forward a few steps and opened the letter in his hand, but there was a love poem written inside, both inside and out, all of which meant inviting Zhao Kan to get together outside the city.
The honorable person was puzzled: "This letter has not been signed? β
"I heard that there was another token that was sent with the letter, but the prince took it away when he went out of the city, and the people in King Jing's Mansion didn't see what it was." The little eunuch said.
The honorable man's face was pale, and he didn't know what to say, so he only said: "Prepare the sedan chair, I want to meet the emperor immediately!" "Someone framed Kan Er this time, it must be Zhao Huaiyan, but where is she going to find evidence?
However, Zhao Huaiyan did things, how could he let people leave evidence, and he just planned it, and gave Zhao Kan the barbarian assassin that Zhao Qian used to frame him.
Outside the city, Zhao Kan was surrounded by officers and soldiers, and what was hidden in the ruined temple behind him was not the person he wanted to see at all, but a barbarian assassin.
Lin Jincheng, who was leading the guards, looked at the people in front of him, and his eyebrows were slightly tight. After all, he was only caught meeting with the assassin, and Zhao Kan was the prince, and he couldn't even be arrested unless he waited for the emperor's holy decree to come down.
Zhao Kan tightly grasped a strand of green silk tied by white silk in his hand, thinking that looking at the letter, it was Lin Jinwen who was moved by herself, so she took the green silk as a token, but she never thought that it was not her, but the fragrance on the green silk and the white silk were not cut off from the clothes she was wearing that night? Otherwise, how could there be the fragrance of that night?
Gao Yu, who was staring from afar, glanced at his short hair, thinking that he had quietly stolen the white cloth cut by Miss Lin's silk handkerchief, and watched him put the hair in front of the tip of his nose again and again, and he had a strange feeling in his heart. said it was disgusting, but it was more like he had committed himself to King Jing, but the only thing he didn't expect was that King Jing was so obsessed with Miss Lin so far, just a letter and a strand of hair, so he drove a horse early in the morning.
"I didn't expect that King Jing, who was once unruly, also has today." On the second floor of the tavern not far from the city gate, the little servant smiled with a bit of sarcasm.
"I've been wandering for a long time, and when I really meet someone who is tempting, the crazier it will be." Zhao Tian indifferently turned the wine glass in his hand, and the corners of his mouth were coldly hooked: "But King Ning is King Ning, he is always smarter than ordinary people, he has already seen through my plan, and he has given Zhao Kan, a person who is caught in the love network, a plan." β
"Then Lord, what should I do next? Thinking about it, if you continue to let King Ning investigate, the Luo family is afraid that they will also escape. The Luo family refused to submit to us, and this time they came out, for fear that there would be trouble. The little guy looked at him and asked.
Zhao Tian only turned his head to look downstairs, and saw a little guy in a dark family uniform coming out of the pharmacy, so he smiled and said, "What's the hurry, the plan has just begun." β
The little guy followed his gaze, recognized the Ding costume system, and said with a smile: "You want to start with the Wang family." β
Wang Yushi was trapped at home, and Mrs. Wang's mother and daughter listened to Lin Jin's words very much, leaving only one Wang Hui far away...... I heard that he was seriously ill, so I gave him this. After speaking, he took out a jade bottle and put it on the table.
Just taking out this jade bottle seemed to be able to smell a quiet aroma, and when the little girl saw this, she was a little unbearable: "This is what the string moon gave you, and it is something that can save your life." β
"If you don't give Wang Huiyuan a life, do you think he can die for this king?" Zhao Tian glanced at the medicine bottle with disdain, and sneered: "Princess Xianyue of Western Xia, she really regards herself as a person." β
Seeing this, the little guy accepted the medicine bottle and said no more.
Zhao Kan's matter did not last long, and the holy decree came down quickly, but it was beyond Gao Yu's expectations.
He returned to King Ning's mansion, looked at Zhao Huaiyan, who was standing under the promenade on the lake and was thinking about something alone, and said softly: "Lord Wang." β
"How's the Decree?"
"I heard that it was the nobleman himself who asked to send King Jing to the southwest to join the army, but the emperor agreed and will not pursue the matter again." Gao Yu said cautiously, in this way, even if Zhao Kan escaped, the southwest is the territory of the Xiong family, and he will only be like a fish in water when he goes over.
When Zhao Huaiyan heard this, his eyes were pale: "Inform the big boss of Qingshan Cottage that Zhao Kan's trip to the southwest does not have to be too smooth." β
Seeing that the prince didn't plan to be ruthless, Gao Yu hesitated: "Prince, King Jing went to the southwest to make peace with the Xiong family, but it is even more difficult to deal with." β
"It's not the time yet." The father is still staring at his every move, once he wants Zhao Kan's life, the father will inevitably decide that he is the one who wants to rebel, not to mention that Jiacai has already planted the seeds of doubt in his heart, and there is still Zhao Qian in the capital.
When Gao Yu heard this, even if he was unwilling, he had no choice but to respond.
Not long after, I heard someone from outside, saying that King Xuan asked to see him.
"King Xuan......" Zhao Huai glanced at the person who was talking back: "Please go to the study." β
"Yes."
When the others left, Gao Yucai followed to the side and said, "Lord Wang, why did King Xuan come here?" β
"Come and sell favors." Zhao Huaiyan had long known that he had secretly cooperated with Xianyue, but with the birth of his prince, the queen and the noble people encountered setbacks one after another, Jiacai was even given death, and his mother Concubine Li began to sit still and want to fight.
Gao Yu saw him walk away directly, he didn't figure it out in his heart, and he didn't dare to say more, so he hurriedly followed.
Lin Jinwen heard the news of Zhao Kan in Cining Palace, it was already time for dinner, and the palace maids and eunuchs in the palace were nervous, if it wasn't for Mo Feng who happened to hear them talking in private when she went to get dinner, she was afraid that she wouldn't know at this time.
After dinner, Lin Jinwen sent everyone out with the reason for bathing, leaving Mo Feng to speak: "How could the emperor agree to Zhao Kan to go to the southwest?" β
"The slave doesn't know, it stands to reason that the emperor should always be jealous of the Xiong family, and he disposed of the Xiong Prime Minister before and belittled the nobles, so it can be seen that he wants to dispose of the Xiong family." Mo Feng is also puzzled.
Lin Jinwen couldn't figure it out, standing by the window and looking at the boxy palace wall outside the window, after a while, a bold idea came to her heart: "Could it be that the emperor wants to borrow Zhao Kan to get rid of the Xiong family?" "Only this truth can be explained, Zhao Kan is much easier to use than the Xiong family, and it will not make the Xiong family suspicious.
Mo Feng was puzzled, and Lin Jinwen didn't explain much, but said: "You will stare at it again in the past few days to see if the honorable person will be valued by the emperor, if so, then my guess will not be far from ten." "If the emperor wants to use Zhao Kan to get rid of the Xiong family, he will inevitably give the Xiong family and Zhao Kan sweetness to deceive them, and it is impossible to reward anything in the southwest, so the only person who can give sweetness is a noble person.
The ink wind should be down.
Another night of silence passed, and Lin Jinwen got up the next day to say hello, and saw that the honorable person was already in the room, and he was full of joy.
As soon as Lin Jinwen came in, she saw the spring in the corners of her eyebrows and eyes, and blinked, could it be that the emperor summoned her last night?
Just thinking about it, Mama helped the Queen Mother out.
After a few clichΓ© greetings, the words changed, and the noble man said: "The concubine has a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not." β
"You've spoken, speak." The Queen Mother took a sip of tea before she said slowly.
"Yes." The honorable man hurriedly got up and bowed half-bent, and said, "The concubine is thinking, with your birthday, should you also let the queen mother come out." Although she made a big mistake, she has been confined for a long time, and she should have reflected on it, and she should have been punished, what do you say, Queen Mother? β
When the Queen Mother heard this, her eyebrows twisted slightly, and she seemed to be reluctant, but before she could speak, she heard a steady footstep outside, and then a bright yellow figure walked in.
When the honorable person saw the comer, his face flew into a red cloud, and he hurriedly stepped aside, and Lin Jinwen also hurriedly saluted, so he heard him say: "Let's be even." I just listened to Concubine De's words, which is very reasonable, and from today onwards, I will let the queen out, so that she can also touch the joy of the queen mother. β
"Concubine De?" When the honorable man heard this, he raised his head excitedly.
The emperor smiled at her: "Why, the concubine has been a noble person for a long time, and she forgot her previous title?" β
Only then did the honorable person react, and immediately knelt down and thanked him: "Thank you for the emperor's great kindness." β
"Okay, you were tired yesterday, today Kan'er is going to enter the palace to say goodbye, you go and see it, I will be gone, others in the province say that I am particularly biased towards your mother and son." The Emperor laughed.
The palace maid on one side was overjoyed to see the nobleman, and hurriedly stepped forward to help her up, and said with a smile: "Concubine De Niangniang, thank you quickly." β
She thanked her and left excitedly. When leaving, Lin Jinwen saw that her hands were trembling slightly, and she couldn't help but feel a little more pity in her heart. The emperor used her like this, and she was still grateful to Dade, but the emperor was really ruthless, and the woman who had shared the bed for so many years would always be just a chess piece in his eyes.
Just as she was thinking, a slightly cool gaze fell on her, and she hurriedly withdrew her gaze and lowered her eyes silently, but the emperor laughed: "What is Chunhe thinking?" β
Seeing him talking to herself, Lin Jinwen turned around and said, "The courtier is happy for Concubine De." β
"Oh, what is there to be happy about? The position of this concubine was hers. The Emperor looked at her deeply.
"Concubine De Niangniang is worthy of joy if she can be favored by the saint." Lin Jinwen said high-sounding words.
The emperor was happy to hear it: "They all say that you are sharp-toothed, and I think it's really right." β
"The emperor has a good reputation."
"Then you are happy that I praise you like this?" The Emperor smiled.
"Naturally, no one's praise is as glorious as the emperor's praise, and when they leave the palace, the courtiers can talk to the close ladies for three months." Lin Jinwen looked at him with a loving attitude, and also showed a flattering heart with him.
When the emperor heard this, he laughed: "Interesting, Chunhe, no wonder Huaiyan likes you so much." That's it, I and the queen mother, you are also bored with Xu Ye, the queen is Huaiyan's mother, since you are in the palace, go and welcome her out of the palace. β
Lin Jin's heart tightened, what did the emperor mean by this?
She raised her eyes, but the emperor's eagle eyes looked at her, as if to see her through.
She got up and said with a smile: "The emperor is in his prime, the queen mother is also blessed with a long life, the courtiers are shallow, and when they talk to the queen mother and the emperor, they will be as the book says, listen to the king's words, it is better to read ten years of books, where will you feel bored, I am afraid that the queen mother will dislike the courtiers and have no ink." β
"A woman is virtuous if she is not talented." The Queen Mother said coolly.
When Lin Jinwen heard this, she knew that she really didn't want to see herself.
But it's okay, even if the emperor is suspicious, his face is always pleasant.
The emperor smiled and said: "Huaiyan also asked me to marry early, I was not very happy, now look at your sharp teeth, it is better to marry earlier, and polish his annoying and withdrawn nature." β
Lin Jinwen looked up in shock, so her wedding date is really going to be advanced?
On the way out of Cining Palace to Yikun Palace, because of the early marriage, she didn't have the heart to think about why the emperor would let her see the queen, and when she arrived at Yikun Palace, Mo Feng said that someone secretly followed her all the way, and only then did she understand that the emperor wanted to test whether the queen and Huaiyan were as Jiacai said, and they had the heart to rebel, after all, the queen was pulled out of the trough, and when she saw that she was her own person, it was easiest to confide in her heart.
She looked at the silence in Yikun's palace, exhaled in her heart, and let go of other thoughts, only hoping that the queen would be calm for a while.
