Chapter 22: Who Am I?
In the troubled times, the Rose Guard not only guarded the city, but also transferred grain, transported grain, and fought support, and everyone praised Zhao Wahoo's father for having no dogs and no dogs.
It wasn't until the disaster of war gradually subsided, Zhao Hui built the Great Zhou Dynasty, and set the Beijing Division, that the figures of the Guiwei slowly disappeared from the battlefield.
Many girls married and had children, and only a few worked as female officials by Zhao Gui's side for a few years.
"My mother has only been a female official for less than two years, and Aunt Lan is longer than her, and she is the last to leave," Qin Luan recalled the past events he had heard, "Grandpa Guo's aunt and Wending Xiangjun are the only ones who still accompany the eldest princess to this day." ”
And the townsman, from the institutional point of view, is actually not a treasure guard.
She is the female officer of the eldest princess.
"These few of them, who have been female officials, are very familiar with each other," Lin Fan pursed his lower lip and said, "If I want to inquire about something related to my mother and aunt, I think Mrs. Zhongyi Boshizi may be able to give some answers." ”
Qin Luan blinked.
And so it was.
Lin Fan didn't refuse what she wanted and the handle with the Second Highness, and she needed to exchange the information.
That's okay, Qin Luan doesn't like to owe favors.
"I don't understand something," Qin Luan spoke, and when she saw Lin Fan signaling her to just ask, she said, "My mother is gone, and many things about her, I can only listen to Aunt Lan say that Grandpa Guo is different from me, Lingtang and Xiangjun are here, just ask directly if you have something, you don't need to go through Aunt Lan's place." ”
"It was my mother and aunt who were so secretive that we had to find another way."
Qin Luan asked again: "Is Grandpa Guo sure that Aunt Lan knows?" ”
"Actually, I don't know much for sure," Lin Fan's brows frowned, "It's been more than twenty years, and it's all been tightly hidden, except for those who have witnessed it, it's hard to say that there are people in the know." Madame Shizi, if I can be aware of the situation at that time, it will be my surprise. ”
Qin Luan quickly calculated.
Now it is the twentieth year of Qingyuan, and Lin Fan's mouth has been in his early twenties, and that happened in the fifth year of Jianlong, when the first emperor was still in power.
"In this way, not only Aunt Lan at that time, but even my mother was still working beside the eldest princess," Qin Luan said, and asked, "Then what Grandpa Guo wants to inquire about is ......?"
Lin Fan sat upright, there was no trace of distraction around him, and when he spoke, word by word, without the slightest procrastination: "I want to know, who I am." ”
This time, it was Qin Luan's turn to be stunned.
She looked at Lin Fan, who was extremely serious, and couldn't help but turn her head to look at Qian Er again.
Qian Er's face was full of question marks, and the small head was obviously not enough.
It was another gust of cold wind, although it didn't blow the money, but it still made her shiver.
Qian Er pinched her fingers and kept giving her girl a look.
Xisi Hutong is really evil!
It's only been a while, and I've forgotten who I am, don't you even know where they are?
Gotta ask the girl to put a rune paper on him!
Qin Luan gave Qian Er a reassuring look, and then looked at Lin Fan again.
"Grandpa Guo," Qin Luan wasn't sure whether he should continue to call Lin Fan like that, but for a while, it was really difficult to correct these details, so he simply said, "You are very serious, very serious, you are really doubting your origin......
"It's not suspicion," Lin Fan shook his head, "It's not suspicion, it's certainty, I'm not Lin Xuan's son." ”
The wind blows the clouds away.
The clear full moon light lost its obscuration and fell down, illuminating a small corner of the lantern that was not lit.
Under the moonlight, Lin Fan's facial features became clearer and clearer, and his dark eyes reflected a clear light, which was a very shallow layer of light.
In the next moment, the sky was covered with clouds again, the moonlight was hidden, and the corner was dark again.
Qin Luan remembered Lin Fan's eyes, there was no confusion, no resentment, no uneasiness in his eyes, not the slightest, all he had was firmness.
She thought, Lin Fan didn't lie, nor was he suspicious, he was really sure.
Lin Fan was also observing Qin Luan's reaction.
Ordinary people must be very surprised when they suddenly hear such news, although it is not like a ghost like money, but there are some ups and downs.
Qin Luan was calmer than he expected.
Calmness is the most indispensable thing in the search for the hidden truth.
When you are startled, it is easy to startle the snake.
"That was when I was eight years old."
In the eighth year of Qingyuan, because the queen mother was chattering about him, Lin Fan followed his father Lin Xuan into the palace and asked the queen mother for peace.
At that time, Lin Fan was the child king who fought all over the capital, and the queen mother had heard of his heroic deeds, and asked him with a smile about his fighting experience.
Lin Fanzi had something to say.
The queen mother praised him for being lively and cheerful, and pointed at Lin Xuan and said, "You have such an elegant temperament, how can you raise such an eccentric son?" ”
The father said, "The child is not sensible, you are smiling." ”
The emperor also smiled happily on the side: "Then it goes without saying, nine times out of ten it is Wending, Lin Xuanneng is capable of literature and martial arts, and there is no way to take his sister alone, he favors his sister, and Pingyang supports him." ”
Lin Fan laughed: "My aunt loves me very much." ”
In Cining Palace, there was laughter and laughter, and Lin Fan left the palace with a smile, until he returned to the Dingguo Mansion, he suddenly felt that his father seemed to be worried.
After pondering for an hour back in the house, he decided to go and apologize to his father.
I don't know why, but my father's worries must have been caused by him.
He was in a hurry, he went when he thought of it, he didn't even have a good door, he could climb over the wall, and he went all the way to the back of Lin Xuan's study.
Unexpectedly, Lin Zhi was also there.
Then, Lin Fan overheard a conversation between his father and his aunt.
"The Queen Mother is suspicious."
"She sees? It's no wonder that Fan'er's temperament is still too similar to him, and he has to be restrained in the future, brother don't worry about me, I'm by the eldest princess's side, and the queen mother won't touch me easily, but brother, you must be cautious, you experienced it yourself back then. ”
"I know what to do. Next month, I will lead the troops to the expedition, this time, I will definitely take Xizhou, and you will take care of more mothers and children in Beijing. ”
This conversation made Lin Fan stunned.
He didn't know whether to go out or not, so he hid under the courtyard wall until his father and aunt left......
"Later, my father went on an expedition," Lin Fandao, "and he didn't conquer Xizhou in the end, and the next year, he died of an old injury." ”
Qin Luan listened silently, she didn't interrupt Lin Fan's narration, and she couldn't interject.
It wasn't until Lin Fan finished speaking that Qin Luan opened her mouth to say something, and then she realized that unconsciously, she had just held her breath.
The old things are not long, but they are heavy.
It was as if it was covered with several layers of thick blankets, full of dust, and people couldn't even lift it.
Qin Luan sorted out his thoughts.
No matter how complicated the situation is, there are relatively simple small cuts.
Qin Luan asked, "Are you sure that the old grandfather passed away due to injury and illness?" ”
