One hundred and fourteen of the most precious gifts
"Come on, come on, you're still facing your third brother. I'm going home, do you want to go back with me, or do you want to play by yourself?" asked Lin Wanyan with a smile.
Xiao Manxue hesitated for a moment and said, "Will it be too abrupt for me to go to the General's Mansion like this, if my father knows about it, he should punish me!"
Lin Wanyan thought about it, it didn't seem to be very good, no matter how to say that Xiao Manxue was a princess who had not left the cabinet, it was indeed unseemly to go to the general's mansion so rashly. "If you are not afraid of losing your identity, you will secretly follow me into the house and go to my courtyard. Mu Qing is a sensible girl who doesn't talk nonsense. ”
Xiao Manxue looked at Yang Muqing, and Yang Muqing nodded with a smile. "I'm used to being stubborn, how can I have any identity. It's okay to sneak back before the palace gate is keyed. I'd like to see how cute your snowballs are!"
"Let's go. Of course, Lin Wanyan knew that watching the snowball was just a pretense, and it was true that Xiao Manxue wanted to see Yang Chengyue.
"Good. Xiao Manxue got up as she spoke, and Lin Wanyan and Yang Muqing also got up and walked out the door.
Lin Wanyan whispered to Lingyue about the situation, and Lingyue arranged for Chiyan and Xiao Manxue to ride in the same carriage and bring people into Lin Wanyan's courtyard from the back door of the General's Mansion, while the others returned to the house normally.
Back at the General's Mansion, Lin Wanyan and Yang Muqing sent the pastries from Suxinlou to Zhang Yufang and several sisters-in-law, and finally went to Yang Chengyue's courtyard.
"Sixth brother!" Yang Muqing walked forward quickly as soon as she saw Yang Chengyue coming out of the courtyard.
Lin Wanyan just smiled, behind her back, she could naturally call Yang Chengyue the sixth brother, but she couldn't say anything in person.
"Princess Jin!" Yang Chengyue still saluted respectfully as usual, not that he couldn't change it, but that the hierarchy was deeply rooted in his bones.
"It's all a family, and it's too much for you to be polite now!" Lin Wanyan was a little uncomfortable and took the brocade box containing red sandalwood jade Ruyi from Lu Ying's hand and handed it to Yang Chengyue, "I heard that you were honored as the deputy commander of the forbidden army, and this is given to you, and it is also a piece of my sister's heart." ”
Yang Chengyue took the brocade box, opened it, and handed it back to Lin Wanyan. "I received my sister's heart, but I can't ask for this gift!"
Lin Wanyan pushed the brocade box back, "What, do you think I'm not as generous as the third master?"
"No, it's just that this gift is too valuable!" Yang Chengyue knew that it was from the largest jewelry shop in Nanli City as soon as he saw this brocade box, which was Xiao Yuwen's shop, and it was all sold as a fine product.
Looking at the color of this rosewood jade Ruyi, you know that it is the best of the best, and the value must be very high. To be able to get this position, he has already inherited Xiao Yuwen's great kindness, how can he dare to accept such a valuable gift from Lin Wanyan?
"The most precious is in my yard, take it quickly, and go with me." Lin Wanyan smiled mysteriously.
When Yang Chengyue heard this, he could only hand the brocade box to the attendant behind him, and then walked towards Lan Zhiyuan with Lin Wanyan. Yang Muqing found a reason to go back to her yard with interest.
"Is it true that the third master and Prince Yue were ambushed outside the city?" Lin Wanyan glanced at Yang Chengyue and asked in a low voice.
Yang Chengyue glanced at Lin Wanyan in surprise, "Princess Jin knows?"
"I met the sixth princess on Sifang Street today, and she told me. Lin Wanyan smiled faintly, and soon Yang Chengyue would know what this most expensive gift was.
"The sixth princess sneaked out of the palace again?" Yang Chengyue frowned slightly, he was still on an errand in the palace before, every time Xiao Muxue sneaked away, he would secretly hide something for her, I am afraid it will not work in the future. The head of the Ouchi guard has changed, and many of the people below will also change.
"Can she stop her if she wants to come out?" Lin Wanyan said with a smile in her heart, and didn't ask who she sneaked out for.
Yang Chengyue didn't speak, with Xiao Manxue's temperament, no one really could stop her, as long as she wanted to come out, she would come out by all means. She has used all these tricks of dressing up as a palace maid who goes out of the palace to buy, and a woman pretending to be a man who drives horses.
"Who is the one who wants to harm the third master and Prince Yue?" Lin Wanyan continued to ask, she guessed that most of them were still the queen, because she had this motive.
"It's the Queen, but it's been expected. This is a ploy of the third master, the praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind, and the cicada and the yellow finch are the third master. Yang Chengyue said softly.
"So the third master and Prince Yue are all right? I heard the sixth princess say that someone took a sword for Prince Yue, but why did he send people to the palace?" Lin Wanyan felt that his head was really incomparable to Xiao Yuwen, but fortunately the two were on the same front.
"It was Mu Chuan who was injured, this was also planned, and the third master wanted to return everything Mu Chuan had lost to him. Yang Chengyue knew that Xiao Yuwen was fulfilling his promise to Li Muchuan step by step, and now has to be said to be the best time.
"What? Why can't I understand?" Lin Wanyan was puzzled, this deliberately injured Li Muchuan, how to return what he lost to him?
"This matter must be kept secret by Princess Jin when she hears it, it is related to the safety of the third master. Yang Chengyue said in a low voice.
Lin Wanyan nodded, since it was a ploy, it must be kept secret, everything Xiao Yuwen did seemed to put his head on the blade, it was really an inexhaustible heart.
"Concubine Jing's family was killed by the queen back then, and Mu Chuan was the incense she tried to leave for the Li family. The emperor also knew the mistakes he made back then, but he didn't know the existence of Mu Chuan, who had been living incognito all these years.
Prince Yue was fond of Concubine Jing's sister back then, but he was helpless about his sweetheart's death, and he has been guilty all these years, and he has no wife, and he cares for Mu Chuan even more.
The third master had expected that the queen would make such a move today, so he asked Mu Chuan to accompany him to protect Prince Yue, and with Mu Chuan's respect for Prince Yue, he was willing to die for him.
This is a sword, the third master will not let Mu Chuan suffer in vain, not only to let the best imperial doctor in the palace treat him, Prince Yue will also propose to the emperor to adopt Mu Chuan as an adopted son, and then Mu Chuan will be the prince of Yue Wangfu. The hardships of these years have not been in vain, and he is no longer an orphan without a father, a mother and a home. ”
Lin Wanyan smacked his tongue for a while after hearing this, he didn't expect Prince Yue to be so temperamental, he didn't expect Li Muchuan to have such an easy time these years, and he didn't expect Xiao Yuwen to play such a big game of chess!
"Then Mu Chuan's life won't be in danger, right? I'm afraid the injury he suffered last time in Xitang is not completely healed. Lin Wanyan was still a little worried, the flesh and blood were hit by a sword, no matter what happened, he would have to recuperate for a period of time, if the injury was critical, he was afraid that his body would be injured.
"Flesh and skin suffering is inevitable. Yang Chengyue said lightly. For them, these recoverable injuries are nothing, but they are too light to convince the public.
Lin Wanyan nodded, people who do big things, this bit of suffering still has to be suffered. The prince of the Yue Wangfu is not a small name, as long as the emperor recognizes it, the title is hereditary.
Yang Chengyue didn't say anything anymore, and the two walked into Lan Zhiyuan silently. Lan Zhiyuan's maid had already been sent away by Chiyan, and when she saw Lin Wanyan and Yang Chengyue coming in, she quietly saluted and retreated to the gate of the courtyard.
"Brother Chengyue!" As soon as Xiao Manxue saw Yang Chengyue, she was still squatting on the ground and playing with a ball of wool to tease the snowball, so she immediately stood up.
Yang Chengyue glanced at Lin Wanyan, a little embarrassed, it turned out that the most valuable gift that Lin Wanyan said was Xiao Manxue.
"The sixth princess is getting bolder and bigger!" Yang Chengyue glanced at Xiao Manxue lightly, and his mood was a little complicated.
Xiao Yuwen has been helping him, not only robbing Yan Wei's position, but also shaking out Yan Wei's ugly things, it is impossible for the queen to let the emperor marry Xiao Manxue to Yan Wei.
As the deputy commander of Yang Chengyue's forbidden army, he can only find a suitable opportunity to speak, I am afraid that the emperor will marry Yang Chengyue and Xiao Manxue.
"I'm here to see Snowball!" Xiao Manxue cheekily quibbled, although Sima Zhao's heart is well known to passers-by, but the villain is a little woman.
"Yes, I invited the sixth princess to see Snowball. Lin Wanyan also helped to speak, Xiao Manxue came to the General's Mansion to spread the word like this, it was an insult to her reputation, and Yang Chengyue, a person who obeyed the rules, would definitely be unhappy that she did this.
Hearing this, Yang Chengyue couldn't say anything more. He also knew that it would not be so easy to meet Xiao Manxue in the future, and in the future, he would probably not stay in the camp, but would have to carry out secret missions, not to mention entering the palace, and even having few opportunities to enter Nanli City.
"Snowball is hungry, let's go, I'll get you something to eat. Lin Wanyan walked over, squatted down and picked up Xueqiu'er and walked upstairs, she didn't want to be a light bulb.
Seeing that Lin Wanyan was gone, Xiao Manxue took out a white jade Guanyin pendant with a red rope from her cuffs, held the red rope in her hand, and wanted to bring it to Yang Chengyue.
"Sixth princess, what are you doing!" Yang Chengyue turned his head and refused, he could feel Xiao Manxue's intentions, but he didn't dare to accept it easily.
"Brother Chengyue, this is a gift from the vines. You are now the deputy commander of the forbidden army, and you will encounter more dangers in the future than when you were in the palace, and Jade Guanyin will eliminate disasters and solve problems to keep you safe. Xiao Manxue said as she stood on tiptoe and brought it to Yang Chengyue.
Yang Chengyue didn't know what to say for a while, the whole person froze there, and Xiao Manxue put the Jade Guanyin around his neck, and put it in his underwear to cover it. The moment the jade touched the skin, it was cold.
"Brother Chengyue, you can't often come to the palace to see me in the future, right? Xiao Manxue said with some sadness.
Yang Chengyue glanced at Xiao Manxue gently, "You will go out of the palace less in the future, and you will have less trouble." ”
Xiao Manxue nodded obediently, "Brother Chengyue, will you come back next month when Brother Yuwen gets married?"
"Nothing special should be. Yang Chengyue's tone was still light, Xiao Yuwen would come to bless him no matter what, not to mention that Lin Wanyan was now his sister-in-law.
"Then will Brother Chengyue write me a letter?" Xiao Manxue asked expectantly.
Yang Chengyue hesitated for a moment and said, "When I arrive at the camp, I will write to tell you about the situation there." ”
"Okay!" Xiao Manxue happily replied. As long as Yang Chengyue agrees to write to her, she is very satisfied, which means that she can also write to Yang Chengyue.
