Chapter Eighty-Seven: Promises Against Will
Lin Huanye, Lin Jinse's elder brother.
Lin Guiren actually has an older brother, but where is it? Can I complete her deathbed commission?
I recalled the last words of Lin Jinse's last words, asking me to find her brother.
I don't know why, because Jin Se's dead face pierced his heart deeply. In the deep palace, is life really so uncontrollable?
I felt really weak, so weak that I couldn't say a word for Lin Jinse.
I didn't dare to step into the gate of the Taihua Palace, arguing a little reasonably, and I didn't dare to avenge a little grievance for Lin Jinse.
That was the Empress Dowager's decree, that was the conclusion of the courtiers of the Manchu Dynasty, even the emperor couldn't say anything, what role could I play. And the only thing I can do to help her is probably to help her find her brother.
I called to Yinglin weakly, "Privately ask Shi Ye to find out if there is such a person as Lin Huanye." ”
Ying Lin nodded understandingly.
That night, I heard that Lin Jinse's child had been crying all night, and the nurse took turns to take care of her, and she was taught by the Queen Mother, saying that it is not good to take care of a child, so what is the use of you.
Yuetao said a good word, and the Queen Mother vented her anger. Maybe Yue Tao feels that her child needs her mother, and only her own child can feel the presence and breath of her biological mother.
Lin Jinse just left, as if he hadn't left too many traces in the palace, except for the eldest son of the emperor.
The day of the crown prince should not be far off.

In the study room of the Beihai Palace, Tuoba Xiang was standing in front of the bookcase, looking at the letter spread out in front of him, looking deeply at the content of the letter, and his brow went from lax to wrinkled when reading the content of the letter, as if he had fallen into the abyss.
Suddenly, a light wind came, and a dagger was firmly inserted into the wooden pillar on the pillar next to his desk.
The North Sea King's face changed slightly, and he approached the pillar and pulled out the dagger, pulling out the paper tied to the dagger.
Someone gave him a throwing knife to send a message.
Confused, he opened the paper and saw a few words written.
The letter asked him to go alone in the three stone forests outside the city at midnight.
The letter was not named.
The king of Beihai sat quietly in front of the bookcase, looking at the letter asking him out, and in his mind he was wondering if it was the person, but no matter who it was, he decided to go for a trip, and he knew that it was.
pinching the hour, when he first arrived, the king of the North Sea appeared in the three stone forests.
In the middle of the night, there was only a faint starlight in the starry sky, and by the moonlight, the North Sea King watched vigilantly at the movements in the surrounding forest.
After a while, a red dress floated down from the tree in the dark night.
Before he could see who it was, the North Sea King, who was in a defensive state, attacked.
The red-clothed phantom swirled a few times around the North Sea King and picked up his attack.
After the palm force docked and the internal force flicked together, the two stood facing each other.
Only then did the King of Beihai see the person in front of him clearly, he was stunned, and said suspiciously, "Nangong Ni, did you ask me?" ”
Nangong Ni smiled charmingly, "It's a little woman, I frightened Her Highness just now, and Ni is not here to make amends." ”
The King of Beihai still had a puzzled expression, and said in surprise, "Miss Nangong's martial arts are actually excellent, I really can't see it." ”
Nangong Ni smiled lightly, "Walking the rivers and lakes for self-defense." ”
After speaking, the king of Beihai turned to the right color, "I don't know what happened to the Nangong girl about the king of this out?" I still need to be in this dense forest in the middle of the night. ”
Nangong Ni's eyes were clear, and she smiled faintly, "Ni wants to ask His Highness for a favor, but for His Highness, it's just a faint sentence in front of the emperor." ”
The King of the North Sea looked at her suspiciously, "Let's hear it." ”
Nangong Ni held her breath and said softly, "Ni wants to ask His Royal Highness to recommend Ni to the Imperial Palace." ”
The King of the North Sea smiled indifferently, "Nangong girl stayed well in the Invitation Moon Tower, why did she enter the palace?" ”
There was a look of doubt in his expression.
Nangong Ni bowed down to him and saluted, "Ni said that he wants a stable life, can His Highness be credible?" ”
The King of the North Sea smiled indifferently again, "Is the Invitation Moon Tower unstable?" ”
Nangong Ni pondered for a moment and looked at the King of Beihai sincerely, "It's good to invite Yuelou, but how can it be compared to the palace, Ni doesn't want to float on the rivers and lakes anymore." ”
The King of Beihai was stunned and smiled indifferently, "What if this king doesn't agree to Miss Nangong's request?" ”
Nangong Ni smiled gently, "Ni's impression of the King of the North Sea is that he is a reasonable person, and besides, Ni's piano skills are also well-known in the rivers and lakes, and His Royal Highness will not lose money if he recommends Ni to enter the palace, right?" ”
The king of Beihai was unmoved, and said coldly, "But this king doesn't know who the Nangong girl is, if this king recommends you to enter the palace and you do something wrong, it won't implicate this king." ”
Nangong Ni's face was gloomy, and then he smiled again, "Ni is a responsible person, Ni knows that he should do more things and talk less in the palace, and he should not do too much, and he will never talk or participate, His Highness can rest assured." ”
The King of the North Sea was still smiling, skeptical of her eagerness to enter the palace.
"If this king still doesn't agree?"
The King of the North Sea looked at her coldly and expressionlessly.
Nangong Ni's face stiffened, the gentleness just now faded, and she sneered, "Your Highness has a favorite person for the emperor's Rong nobles, does it?" ”
The King of the North Sea's eyes were low, and the corners of his lips raised a sneering smile: "You threaten this king? ”
Nangong Nilang smiled, "How could Ni threaten His Highness, it was Ni who already felt it very much in the Hongyan Tower in Yangcheng, isn't His Highness?" ”
The King of Beihai frowned, his face was cold, and after hesitation, he smiled, "If the Nangong girl wants to enter the palace, this king will try." ”
Nangong Ni clenched her fists and saluted, smiling gently, "Thank you, Your Highness." ”

When the eldest lady of Gaofu heard that Gao Li was sick, she took the servant woman to the courtyard of the eldest lady, and when she approached, she saw Lang Zhong kneeling on the ground, trembling all over.
And Gao Li, who was sitting, had a complicated expression, and the maidservant Ziyu beside her was busy saluting the eldest lady, and she was also panicked.
"What's going on? I heard that Li'er, you're sick? The eldest lady said quietly.
Gao Li walked over, leaned over and called softly, "Mother, you're here."
After the eldest lady sat down, she glanced at Lang Zhong, who was still kneeling on the ground, and then turned her gaze to Gao Li's panicked face, and asked again for some reason: "Li'er, what's wrong with you?"
Gao Li was chilled at this time, didn't know how to speak, and was silent as if frightened.
"Li'er!" The eldest lady realized that the situation was not right, and shouted angrily at her daughter, who was already stunned.
"Mother." Gao Li's body trembled, his legs became weak, and he knelt down, but he still didn't speak.
Ziyu also knelt down together in a panic.
The eldest lady stayed on Lang Zhong again, and Lang Zhong saw Mrs. Lang Zhong's puzzled expression, and he was busy kowtowing again.
"You say, what's wrong with the eldest lady?" The eldest lady asked in a deep voice Lang Zhong, who hung his head.
Gao Li paused slightly, looked at Lang Zhong stiffly, knowing that he couldn't hide it at the moment, and said it himself, "Mother, I'm pregnant." ”
When the eldest lady heard this, it was like a thunderbolt from the sky, and she and the servant woman who served her looked at each other in surprise. Standing up in a panic, "What did you say!" ”
It is an intolerable shame that the girl who has not left the cabinet is pregnant.
"Say it again." The eldest lady asked in disbelief.
"My daughter is pregnant." Gao Li said lightly, because he had already said it, and he no longer felt afraid.
The eldest lady seemed to understand at this time, and walked back and forth in front of the three kneeling people. After breathing rapidly, he regained his composure, sat down again, and called to the grandmother and the servant woman beside him.
The eldest lady whispered something in the maid's ear, and the servant said to Lang Zhong, "Please come with me."
Lang Zhong got up tremblingly, saluted the eldest lady again, and followed the servant woman out.
After Lang Zhong went out, the eldest lady asked anxiously: "Li'er, what is going on, whose child are you pregnant?" If your father had known about this, he would not have spared you. ”
The eldest lady's words frightened Gao Li and said nothing. The eldest lady was in a hurry, so she slapped her in the past, and said angrily: "You are a rebel, don't say it quickly."
Gao Lidun felt that his face was hot, covered his face, and said slowly: "His Royal Highness the King of Xianyang."
The eldest lady's face was full of panic, and she regained her composure after thinking of Gao Li's words, "Does His Royal Highness the King of Xianyang know?" ”
Gao Li's face was complicated, and he said timidly: "I don't know yet."
Raising his eyes to look at the eldest lady, he asked in a shallow voice, "Mother, what should my daughter do?"
The eldest lady walked over and helped her up, and said calmly: "You can't hide this matter from your father, you must tell him and let your father handle it."
King Xianyang is the emperor's second brother, and his identity is also unusual, so it is not a good thing to be able to become the princess of Xianyang. After thinking about it, the eldest lady decided to discuss with the master how to deal with this matter.
The next day, Gao Li instructed Ziyu to go to the best clothing shop in the imperial city to buy an excellent gold silk and red silk dress, and prepared to meet the king of Xianyang.
And when Ziyu was choosing rouge gouache for Miss, she saw Bai Rui coming out of the warm incense pavilion. This warm incense hall can deal in women's products, how could he be a dignified man here, but Ziyu didn't understand.
After Ziyu glanced at Bai Rui, he didn't pay attention to him anymore, and after returning home, Ziyu said to Gao Li, "The shopkeeper said that he made a special rouge, which is very limited, only a few boxes, he saw that Miss usually patronizes his shop, and said that he would leave a box for Miss, but it will take a few days to use it, he said that he will personally send it to the house when the time comes." ”
Gao Li was in a good mood and casually responded to Ziyu.
She stood in front of the mirror, tried on the new clothes that Ziyu bought, and looked at herself in the mirror, very satisfied.
Her face was already full of joy to become the princess of Xianyang.
After the early dynasty, Gao Yang called the king of Xianyang.
Xianyang stopped and looked at him stunned, "Is there something wrong with the general?" ”
Gao Yang felt that he didn't know where to put his old face, but his daughter was pregnant, so he still forced himself to win the opinion of King Xianyang.
"Are Li'er and His Highness together?"
King Xianyang was stunned and admitted, "Yes." ”
He was also worried that King Xianyang would not admit it, but when he saw him nodding, Gao Yang's eyes flashed, and he finally showed a look of relief.
"Li'er is pregnant, does Your Highness know?"
King Xianyang was coldly surprised, "Yes, this king really doesn't know." ”
Gao Yang saw that there was no joy in his expression, but surprise, his eyes sank, afraid that King Xianyang would not want to be responsible.
He still said honestly, "What is Your Highness going to do?" ”
King Xianyang smiled, touched his forehead, and gave Gao Yang a satisfactory answer.
"It turns out that Li'er has a child of this king, and after this king is the empress dowager, he will choose a day to marry Li'er into the mansion, what does the general think?"
Gao Yang smiled harmoniously and said goodbye.
King Xianyang looked at Gao Yang's back, and the smile that was still warm just now suddenly disappeared, and there was only indifference on his face.
