Chapter 8: Fearless
Her calm appearance made Yu Ning raise her eyebrows in some surprise, she sat down slowly on the main seat, and asked suspiciously: "What, the county lord of Yongle is planning to resist the decree?" ”
"Naturally I don't dare," she said, Lin Chonghan hurriedly got up and knelt on the ground, "Princess Mingjian, the courtiers don't dare to have any thoughts of disrespecting the order. It's just that there is another hidden story behind the separation, not as the princess sees. ”
"Gu Zhao rarely returns home in five years, and the outside is even more fostered in the outer room, and the two of us don't get close to each other much, so it is difficult to have children, and I hope that the princess will be clear."
"This palace knows," Yu Ning and Lin Chonghan looked at each other, with a hint of condescension in their eyes, "But this palace decrees, and you don't need a little county lord to put a beak." ”
Lin Chonghan met her sharp eyes, but he didn't dodge or dodge, but raised his voice: "It seems that the princess's will is not out of morality, but out of personal feelings." ”
"The princess is angry with her courtiers because of the matter of General Zhongwu, right?"
The eldest princess of Yuning is getting older, but because of the careful maintenance over the years, she has not become old.
Her eyebrows are deep, her red lips are bright, and her phoenix eyes contain a thick majesty and fierceness, but the subtle wind and frost in the corners of her eyes still declare that this body is not young.
was mentioned by a junior to the most painful scar in his heart, Yu Ning's face was very ugly, and he asked sharply: "So open-mouthed, that's how Lin Guangqing taught you?" ”
"No matter how my father upbred," Lin Chonghan was not frightened by her anger, "The eldest princess shouldn't have an attack like this because of old things." ”
"Bang-"
She placed the teacup heavily on the table, and the crisp clash of porcelain was like thunder to the ears of the subordinates, and they trembled and fell to their knees.
"Lin Chonghan, you are so bold!" The eldest princess's chest continued to rise and fall because of anger, "Who gave you the courage to dare to question the eldest princess of the dynasty?" ”
"Old things?" The eldest princess sneered, "When the general dies, he just stands." If it weren't for the sake of saving Yu Chongli, why would this palace be separated from him forever?! ”
Lin Chonghan knelt on the ground, looking at such an eldest princess, and truly realized that the death of General Zhongwu was always an untouchable scar in the eldest princess's heart.
"But, would General Zhongwu be willing to see the princess sad because of him?"
"Princess," she said earnestly, "I have had a sweetheart, and what I hoped for was not to marry him, but to be safe and sound." ”
The eldest princess didn't speak, and Lin Chonghan continued: "You are not punishing me like this, but punishing you, punishing the loyal generals who are far away in Huangquan!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Yu Ning's anger stagnated slightly.
"Princess!"
Lin Chonghan simply took two steps on his knees, came to Yu Ning, and looked at her earnestly: "The princess forgives the courtiers and daughters for their courage!" Besides, you can punish your courtiers for other reasons, but you must not use this one! ”
"As the saying goes, 'go up and follow suit', and every move you and Your Majesty will be emulated by the world. You seem to be reprimanding me Lin Chonghan today, but in fact, you are reprimanding countless harmonious women in the world. ”
"Once your actions are taken advantage of by someone with a heart, how will they deal with themselves at that time?"
She looked at Yu Ning, who turned her head and said nothing, and continued: "Father often said that you are not pedantic and old-fashioned, and I have often heard that you support poor women...... I hope the princess will think twice about this matter. ”
The entire front courtyard was silent for a while, and the servants inside and outside were on their knees.
After a long time, Yu Ning exhaled a breath of turbidity, her anger gradually subsided, she stared at Lin Chonghan, and finally knew why Lin Guangqing doted on this young girl so much, because she was not like anyone in the Lin family, but like her mother who died early.
It's all the same tenacity and intelligence.
"Get up," she said, "come on, let the kitchenette prepare the food, and the lord will eat in the house at noon to-day." ”
Lin Chonghan breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he had taken the right step.
*
After she came out of the princess's mansion that afternoon, the ladies of the family in the capital knew about it.
Although it is not obvious on the surface, many people are talking about Lin Chonghan's good methods behind their backs, you must know that the eldest princess has never been waiting to see the Lin family because of the matter of General Zhongwu, and she didn't want her to go, it seems that the two families are going to break the ice.
Lin Chonghan had long learned not to care about the tongue of the people in the capital, and after solving this matter, she began to plan to form a caravan. Because it was inconvenient for her to come forward, when she was planning to let Haruhi come forward, Lin Shijing threw someone over.
This man's name is Qiu Sanji, a middle-aged man, with a white face and beard, a short stature, a weakened figure, and an extremely ordinary face, which looks the same at a glance, only a pair of eyes are shrewd and energetic.
He smiled and saluted Lin Chonghan, and said in a loud voice: "County Lord Da'an!" The villain is in the third season of autumn, please say goodbye to the county lord! ”
"Get up and speak, Kasuga, take a seat."
Lin Chonghan looked at Lin Shijing, and after the other party silently told her that it was available, she calmed down and asked, "What will you do in the third season of autumn?" ”
Autumn Sanji thanked the spring, and then sat down on the stool with half of his buttocks, and said with a smile: "The villain used to be a businessman, and he knows a little about business." The year before last, when the goods were transported, they were all robbed by bandits, so I had no choice but to come to the second master of the Lin family......"
"I want to form a caravan, I originally wanted to go to the Western Regions, but it hasn't been peaceful there recently," Lin Chonghan lowered his head and scraped the tea foam, "I just thought of sending you to Jiangnan first." ”
"Jiangning weaving has always been superior, you go to Jiangnan for a walk, and by the way, bring me a letter to my eldest brother to see how he is doing recently."
The autumn and three seasons were all ready, pinning their heads to the waistband of their trousers and preparing to go to the Western Regions.
Although there was a rebellion in the south, there were troops stationed there, and the rebellion was even south of Lingnan, and there was nothing to do with the rich Jiangnan.
So he hurriedly responded, looked at Lin Chonghan's face, and asked a little cautiously: "I don't know who the county lord's brother is, what is his surname, and what position he holds in the army?" ”
"My brother's name is Lin Yizhou, and he is now a hussar general." Lin Shijing leaned on the door frame and said meaningfully, "He has a stinky temper, cold and hard. Autumn three seasons, you go this time, but be careful. ”
Lin Chonghan looked at it, and pursed his lips a little amusementily when he heard the hussar general's name.
"You just said that I asked you to find him, don't mention my second brother's name, the eldest brother won't embarrass you much."
"Multi-...... Thank you, Lord Shire. ”
Looking at his embarrassed back, Lin Shijing laughed and coughed, he walked into the door, put an invitation on the table in front of Yu Yunhua, and said, "The eldest grandson of the Duke of Xu's family grabbed Zhou, and the location was chosen in Fangze Garden, and we were invited to attend in three days." ”
"I didn't want you to go, because although Xu Guogong and we are world friends, he is also good friends with the Gu family, Gu Zhao will definitely go, but ......"
Lin Chonghan met his gaze and smiled slightly: "Second brother, don't worry." ”
Her gaze is firm and calm, the past cannot be traced, she is now only the lord of Yongle, not the wife of the Gu family, so naturally there will be no fear.
