Chapter 31: A Day in the Palace (I)
"He's not a stingy man, and you're a smart man, so it's not hard to see what he meant; Although the means are a little crude, as long as someone believes it. β
As soon as Fan Xian entered the door, Emperor Qing began to play the emotional card.
What heavenly family has no family affection, it is all false, as the son of heaven, so many years have passed, and I still haven't forgotten your grandmother, the nurse; In order to prevent your Fan family from making a big move, the prince also deliberately accompanied you to act, our royal family is good to your Fan family.
Since it's good, shouldn't you take care of Wuzhu's two goods and restrain him.
"Weichen is ignorant and ignores the prince's intentions; But my Fan family has received the emperor's favor, although it is difficult to repay one or two of them for ten thousand deaths. β
Fan Xian's answer is very chicken thief, I don't know the prince's intentions, but our old Fan family is definitely a loyal minister who knows how to do it.
"You are very good, I Qingguo has been planning for a long time to fight in the Qi country, and such a big event cannot be unreasonable; The matter of Niulan Street just gave me the interface of Qingguo, you killed the Northern Qi spy meritorious, and I named you the assistant of Taichang Temple. β
The assassination of your Niulan Street was done by the Northern Qi secret agents, isn't it; And I also gave you hush money for this, you have to know what is good.
"The saint is wrong to love, that day on Niulan Street, if it weren't for the timely arrival of the commander of Donggong Liu, the guards at home desperately stopped each other, and Weichen didn't say that he killed the secret agent, even if he wanted to retreat, it would be impossible; It's just the ten guards who died because of me......"
I'm fine, but my men can't die in vain, right?
"They are righteous men who are faithful protectors of the Lord, and We will reward their descendants;
I didn't just call you over today to talk about these things, have you met Wan'er, are you still satisfied with the family business I arranged for you? β
That's it, I paid for the funeral expenses of your guards, but you also have to think clearly, it's your mother-in-law who wants to kill you, it's not me, if you want to go on and on, this marriage will be closed or it won't be concluded.
"Satisfied, satisfied; Don't hide it from the saint, the first time Weichen and Wan'er met in Qingmiao, and they were shocked by her at that time; Weichen even swore in the Qing Temple that she would not marry in this life. β
If you can't do it, you can't do it, you want to ask for an explanation for those who died in vain, but you can't put your wife in it, Fan Xian weighed the pros and cons and compromised.
The conversation between the two was foggy, and people who didn't have a rank really couldn't understand it.
β¦β¦β¦
"Holy Lord, Lord Lin is waiting outside the door."
Father-in-law Hou came in again.
"Wan'er is here, I won't keep you; She grew up in the palace since she was a child, and many concubines in the palace treat her as their own. β
Emotional card, from Fan Xian entering the door to the present, Emperor Qing has always played the emotional card, and now he has sacrificed Wang Bang.
"Thank you, Holy Lord, that Weichen retired first."
As the saying goes, a companion is like a tiger, although Emperor Qing looks kind, Fan Xian has long wanted to get out; Now I hear that I can be with my chicken leg girl openly, what else is there to think about?
β¦β¦β¦β¦
"You, why are you here?"
Lin Wan'er entered the palace today to go to Guangxin Palace to see Li Yunrui, and was called here by Gonggong Hou halfway, and she was a little shy to see her fiancΓ©.
"The Holy One called me here, saying that he asked me to accompany you to walk around the palace more."
If Fan Xian's IQ was originally 120, then after seeing Lin Wan'er, he would obviously have to give a 20% discount, and at this moment he looked dumbfounded, looking at Lin Wan'er and smirking.
"You talk nonsense, uncle is not so boring."
Listening to Fan Xian's words, Lin Wan'er's little face turned even redder.
"You still don't believe me? If you don't believe it, ask Father-in-law Hou, when the Holy Lord just said this, he was next to him. β
"Back to Lord Lin, Fan Gongzi didn't lie, let him accompany you for a walk in the palace, it is indeed the meaning of the saint."
Fan Xian didn't expect Gonggong Hou to be so cooperative, and the silver ticket was less just now.
"Then, then I don't have to see my uncle?"
"No need, you can accompany Fan Gongzi to have a good walk in the palace, but according to the opinion of the slave, you had better go to Hanguang Hall first, the Queen Mother and her old man have been talking about you these days."
Father-in-law Hou also watched Lin Wan'er grow up, and said with a smile.
"Thank you, Grandpa Hou"
"No thanks, no thanks, I, I also hope that the two of you can be harmonious."
Not all eunuchs are harmful, and Grandpa Hou has always liked the beauty of adults.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Hanguang Temple
Compared with the casual Emperor Qing, the Queen Mother was much more disciplined, and when she heard Lin Wan'er and Fan Xian ask to see her, she frowned.
"Why is he here?"
The queen mother's mouth is naturally Fan Xian.
"The saint called him into the palace this morning, saying that he wanted him to accompany Lord Lin and meet with the lady in the palace."
Hong Sizhen replied on the side.
"In this way, since it is done by the Holy One, it must have a deep meaning, you let them in."
At this time, the Queen Mother already knew Fan Xian's true identity, and also knew that the incident in Guangxin Palace a few days ago had nothing to do with him; But she still has to give Emperor Qing's face.
"Wan'er asks the Queen Mother for peace"
"Weichen Fan Xian, please say hello to the Queen Mother"
The two of them kowtowed to the Queen Mother very respectfully, why was Fan Xian so happy this time, and he didn't look at who the people around him were?
The man has gold under his knees, and that's because you don't give enough; If you give enough benefits, I can kneel until you go bankrupt.
"Get up, Wan'er, you are weak, and I will not do these false courtesies in the future."
The Queen Mother kept looking at Fan Xian as she spoke, and saw him helping Lin Wan'er to get up and nodded reluctantly.
"You are Fan Xian; He is often a guest in the sad autumn, and he has been on stage alone for more than a hundred years.
A young man writes such a poem, in the end, it is a little twilight; Wan'er is not easy, and you are not easy, the mourning family hopes that it is not easy for the two of you, get together and live a little easier. β
For Li Yunrui, the biggest thing that the Queen Mother is stronger than her is that she knows current affairs; The emperor's meaning is obvious, now is not the time to turn her face, so she is also very cooperative to pretend to be a kind old lady.
In the palace, regardless of identity, if you want to live a long time, you have to have excellent acting skills; The Queen Mother has lived long enough, so her acting skills are quite good.
"What's wrong?"
After coming out of the Hanguang Palace, Lin Wan'er kept frowning, and Fan Xian said with concern.
"I'm thinking about the Queen Mother."
"The Queen Mother? It's very kind. Fan Xian was puzzled.
"She used to be strict with me, but I could feel that she cared about me; This time, her attitude towards me was much better than before, but she was distant, and I was very unaccustomed to it. β
Lin Wan'er is a very sensitive person, and the subtle changes of the Queen Mother still made her feel it.
"You can feel it, are you thinking too much?
Maybe the Queen Mother thinks you're going to get married, and she's a little reluctant and wants to be nice to you? β
"Well, you have a point, maybe it's true that I'm overthinking."
Although Lin Wan'er was sensitive but not confident, Fan Xian persuaded slightly, and she denied her feelings again.
