He looked at the girl's immature face, and a trace of warmth gradually welled up in his heart.

So he wiped his tears and said, "Your name is Yiwan?" ”

The girl nodded vigorously.

The woman standing behind her stretched out her hands and helped him up: "Which palace child are you?" ”

He blinked his red eyes and said, "I'm from the Grace Palace." ”

The woman was puzzled: "Curvaceous Palace? Is it the little prince of Concubine Yan's sister? ”

He replied, "Yes." ”

The woman smiled and said, "I'm Concubine Yun, you can call me Guo Niangniang." Then don't cry,

Anyway, I'm not far from the Grace Palace, why don't you come to me and sit there, there are a lot of delicious food, Yiwan will play with you. ”

He felt that his clothes would be soaked anyway when he went back now, and he didn't want his mother to see his embarrassed appearance, and he didn't want to tell his mother about today's events, which would make her sad for no reason, so he agreed to go with the woman.

Yiwan brought a lot of pastries and candied fruit from the table, picked up one of them and said to him, "Brother, these are Yiwan's favorite foods, you can eat them." ”

He was about to take it, but saw Concubine Yun smile and said, "Yiwan, your brother's shoes and socks are wet, why don't you let him change his shoes and socks first, and then eat with you later, okay?" ”

The girl nodded hurriedly: "Okay." ”

Later, Yiwan often came to the Grace Palace to play with him, and their relationship became better and better. It's a pity that before Yiwan found her husband, she ......

Thinking of this, he frowned again and thought of Song Yaolai. The matter of harmony, why don't you put it off for a while.

……

Wu Zhu returned to Los Angeles, and the Lin family allowed him to enter the palace examination during the scientific examination next year, which was already a great honor.

Entering the palace examination means becoming a jinshi, and as for the later ones, it can only depend on his own performance. Wu Zhuben is a talented person, and he is not afraid of not playing well. The top three, he didn't think about it so much, since he had the help of the Lin family, plus he made good friends with the people in the court, it was not a problem to mix well, and he didn't care so much about the top three.

So he has recently become more gentle and cautious towards Lin Yuzhen, and even the shoes and socks he wears for her on weekdays. The Lin family saw that he was so good to his daughter, so they paid more attention to his fame.

Recently, however, something has been different.

When he came home from outside that day, he didn't have a warm encounter with Lin Yuzhen first, but went directly to the study, and then locked himself in it and never came out.

Lin Yuzhen didn't know what was going on, because it had been two hours, so she knocked on the door and said, "Husband, dinner is useless." Why don't you open the door and finish your meal? ”

He was bored in his heart, and was about to ask her not to bother again, but after thinking about it again, he lowered his voice and said, "I'm not hungry, let's eat first." Would you like to leave me alone in the study? ”

Lin Yuzhen retreated with interest, her husband was so abnormal, he should have encountered something difficult, and he would ask when he calmed down.

At this time, Wu Zhu was thinking about what he heard from a friend he had just made in Los Angeles today.

"Did you say that the young lady who just came out of Tianxiang Building? She is not surnamed Mu, she is the third lady of the Hou Mansion of Ning'an, and Song Yao, the concubine of the former Ministry of Works. ”

Wu Zhu was a little excited, grabbed the man's sleeve and said, "Are you sure?" ”

The man shook off his hand and said, "What's not sure?" I saw the banquet in the prince's mansion that day, and she sat with her brothers. ”

He didn't understand how Mu Yao became the third lady of the Song Mansion, but no matter what, he was extremely remorseful now.

I knew that she was the young lady of the Marquis of Ning'an, and the daughter of the waiter of the Ministry of Works, so how could she be worthy of his identity. How could he regret marrying with this Lin Yuzhen.

How could this relationship not allow him to rise to prominence? Do you still need him to rely on the Lin family's almsgiving? Compared with Ning Anhou, the Lin family is like the fireflies compared to Haoyue.

Alas......

He thumped his desk in pain.

Originally, he just liked Mu Yao, thinking that after a while, he would let her be a concubine after he became famous and established himself in the officialdom. But now...... Don't talk about concubines, even the position of the main wife is afraid that Mu Yao has to think about it.

He remembered what his mother said to him that day: "Zhu'er, that Mu family has no power and no power, just the master of a county government, and he is not even as good as a seven-grade county order, and he can only be in Xucheng County for the rest of his life." Are you sure you want to continue this relationship with Mu Yao? ”

"But we've been engaged since we were young, so we can't be untrustworthy. This will be talked about by the people of the county. ”

The mother smiled: "You are stupid. The Lin family is a bit powerful in Los Angeles, if you take this opportunity to move to Los Angeles, are you afraid that this person in Xucheng County will say? I'm afraid it's too late for them to envy it. Besides, the marriage contract was made by your grandfather, and now that your grandfather has passed away, who knows what happened back then? ”

Is it?

He sneered, his mother still has eyes, and the fish eye of that day is a real pearl.

What should I do?

He can't afford to offend the Song family and the Xie family. Otherwise, he would find a chance to meet Song Yao?

After secretly making this decision in his heart, he became a little nervous.

It would be great if Song Yao could change her mind, but it really didn't work, so let her help him in the officialdom after remembering the old relationship, the Lin family can't give up yet, and he has to leave a way out for himself, right?

Then he went out of the room and went to Lin Yuzhen.

"Xianggong, are you hungry? I didn't eat either, so I went and asked the kitchen to make something to eat. Lin greeted him.

He grabbed her: "Yuzhen, what do you think of me?" ”

Lin said: "What about it? ”

"How did you choose me in the first place?"

Lin thought about it seriously and said: "When Xianggong found the silk handkerchief I dropped in the temple, I think this is where fate lies." In addition, Xianggong, you are naturally handsome and polite, I think, you should also be the spring boudoir dream of many daughters. ”

Oh? Is it?

At the beginning, was Song Yao, who was also naturally handsome, gentle and polite?

A thought suddenly came to him.

But...... Now, he whispered into Lin's ear, "Do you know why I chose you? ”

Lin Shi felt that his ears were hot, and he blushed and said, "Yuzhen doesn't know. ”

"I just think there is no more understanding girl in the world than you."

After that, he let go of Lin and said, "Yuzhen, let's have a child together." ”

If he has a child, he will restrain Lin Yuzhen and the Lin family, and then go to save Song Yao, and wait until next year when he has fame, he will have an official body. When the time comes, find a mistake and reduce the Lin family to a concubine, and it will not be too late to win Song Yao at that time.

Lin didn't know what he was thinking, he only said that he wanted a child that belonged to the two of them, so he was happy in his heart and secretly lowered his head.
