Chapter 246: Exchanging Secrets (Second Update)

Lin Jiaruo turned his head in surprise and asked, "Why are you here?" ”

Right now, people with status in the capital should be in the princess's mansion, right?

"I'm not here, do I still go to the Princess's Mansion?" He smiled, "I managed to escape from a princess's mansionβ€”" and pointed to his left chest, "There is still a shadow here!" ”

When he said this, it made Lin Jiaruo feel a little sympathetic, and subconsciously glanced at him with pity.

Yuan Yan was amused by her eyes: "Look at your current appearance, as if you have been abandoned, do you still have the heart to pity others?" ”

Lin Jiaruo was a little unhappy by what he said, snorted lightly, and said, "Why am I like being abandoned?" ”

Yuan Yan said: "You are the daughter of the concubine, you should be with the rest of the family at this time, waiting at the gate of the princess's mansion to welcome the princess to descend, but you are alone hiding here and peeking, aren't you like a homeless child?" ”

"You're not huddled here to peek!" Lin Jiaruo glared at him unconvinced.

"I'm different!" Yuan Yan smiled and said, "When I get up early this morning, I pinch my fingers and count, even if there is a sad little girl waiting for me to comfort, I am soft-hearted, so I found it according to the hexagramβ€”β€”"

He looked at her with a smile and a sigh of relief.

Lin Jiaruo was annoyed and angry, and was about to refute him.

At this moment, the crowd was in a stir.

She hurriedly threw away Yuan Yan and looked over.

At the end of the road, her father rode slowly on a red horse with red colors, with a smile as faint as a cloud on his handsome face, a purple robe and jade belt, and a brilliant demeanor.

Behind him, followed by a golden-topped red-curtained footstep, a woman in a dress could be faintly seen sitting in it.

Lin Jiaruo looked at it stupidly for a long time, but when Lin Shisheng's gaze swept here, he quickly hid behind Yuan Yan.

Yuan Yan waved his hand at Lin Shisheng amusedly, and after he walked by, he turned around to look at the little girl who was like a quail with her head buried in her shoulders.

"Why are you doing this? Even if your father is still a princess, you are still the prince of the royal seal! You just stand generously at the door of the princess's mansion, who can drive you away? Yuan Yan shook his head, expressing puzzlement.

Lin Jiaruo's eyes still followed Lin Shisheng, and the crowd of onlookers also followed, and gradually only she and Yuan Yan remained in place.

She shook her head and whispered, "You don't understand, my father doesn't want me to see ......"

"I really don't understand this!" Yuan Yan said with a smile.

Lin Jiaruo pursed her lips and suddenly asked, "Do you know my eldest brother?" ”

Although Yuan Yan was confused by the question, he still nodded: "I know, your eldest brother Lin Zhizhi is the introductory disciple of the great Confucian Mingdao of the world, the grandson of the Jinling Gan family, and the fiancΓ© of Xia Meiren!" Although I have never met him, I have heard of him, and he is an excellent reader! ”

A hint of pride flashed in Lin Jiaruo's eyes, and he said, "You also know that my father is very powerful, but when I was a child, I admired my eldest brother even more, and my father often tried every means to defeat my eldest brother in front of meβ€”β€”"

His face suddenly darkened, and he said softly: "Father doesn't want me to see his powerlessness......"

Yuan Yan sighed softly: "Your father and daughter have a deep relationship, it's really enviable......

This emotion made Lin Jiaruo wake up like a dream, looked at him in a panic, and said, "I, what I told you, can you, can you not say it?" ”

The holy decree to marry is the emperor's grace, but she is here to express their father and daughter's displeasure with this marriage, no matter how you think about it, it is inappropriate!

Yuan Yan couldn't cry or laugh: "Do you need to guard against me like this?" Don't worry, I won't say it! ”

Lin Jiaruo still looked at him in disbelief and wouldn't say anything, so would he use this to do something? When he threatened her with Shen Qingyan's matter, he didn't hesitate at all!

Yuan Yan said helplessly: "Why don't I tell you a secret too, and we'll settle it, how about it?" ”

That's it, Lin Jiaruo still hesitated for a long time before nodding.

Yuan Yan's secret was not casually said, he found a nearby restaurant and hid in the private room, and then he said mysteriously: "Your father, tomorrow will go to Dingzhou!" ”

Lin Jiaruo was stunned for a moment and said, "I already know this!" "That's his secret?

Yuan Yan glanced at her in surprise: "He really doesn't hide anything from you!" ”

What's there to hide from that? Lin Jiaruo looked at him puzzled.

Yuan Yan shook his head with a smile and asked, "Then do you know why your father was sent to Dingzhou?" ”

Lin Jiaruo nodded and said, "Because my father is amazing!" ”

Yuan Yan: ......

coughed dryly twice, and re-spoke: "Actually, this is a deal between the emperor and the Yuan family; The emperor wants to install his own people in the Guanzhong army, and the Yuan family needs to send another son to the center! As he spoke, he pointed to himself.

Lin Jiaruo understood a little: "The emperor wants to send my father to Dingzhou, and he needs your support, in exchange, he has to transfer you to Zhongshu Province to participate in confidential government affairs?" ”

Yuan Yan nodded approvingly.

Lin Jiaruo didn't understand again: "How can you be willing?" Isn't it the heaviest military power? ”

Yuan Yan smiled: "Military power is not something you can take away if you want to, even if your father goes to Dingzhou, at most he will have the title of supervising the army, and he has no military experience, what can he do?" Although one Xie Xuanhui died, but our Guan Sergeant clan, there are many outstanding clan disciples, how can we lose military power? ”

Lin Jiaruo was indignant: "Since it's useless, why can you exchange it?" ”

Yuan Yan smiled widely, and said, "Because there is no way!" Yan Huairuo has beaten the Fallen Horse Pass, the Guan Sergeant clan doesn't care, the emperor has changed, the court is still our family, when today's son only sends his own cronies, he will seriously guard the Fallen Horse Pass for him! ”

Having said that, it can really be regarded as a secret, and such a big rebellion is much more serious than Lin Jiaruo's complaint.

Lin Jiaruo finally put his heart down, but thinking about it, he was a little worried: "You mean, even if my father goes to Dingzhou, it will be useless, and the Yan army will eventually break through the Fallen Horse Pass and approach the capital?" ”

Yuan Yan hooked the corners of his lips and smiled elegantly and charmingly.

"Unless the Jingnan Army goes north, otherwise, Daliang is dead!"

Lin Jiaruo returned to Xing'er Hutong with a heavy heart, Xu Yaoning was sitting under the grape trellis to enjoy the coolness, and the cuckoo stood beside her and said something, which made her laugh.

Seeing Lin Jiaruo coming back, Xu Yaoning greeted, "Why did you come back?" Have you been to the Princess's Mansion? ”

Lin Jiaruo shook his head: "I didn't go to the princess's mansion." ”

Xu Yaoning smiled crookedly: "That's a pity, everyone who went to the princess's mansion today saw a lot of excitement!" ”
