Chapter 21: A Slap in the Face
"What kind of medicine is sold in this concubine's gourd?"
Lin Xuanyi was dressed in a moon-white silver silk dark pattern tuanhua robe, with a slender and well-proportioned body, a steady step, and a folding fan in his hand and stood up calmly.
Coming to the center of the water pavilion, under the eyes of everyone, he saluted upwards without humility or arrogance: "The ministers of the Hanlin Courtyard have seen the noble concubine and the princess. β
Tu Guifei's eyes lit up when she saw Lin Xuanzhi's demeanor, and even her sister, who was married to Zhang Congwen, had a look of regret in her eyes.
The Eight Sages Princess couldn't help but look at Lin Xuanzhi, and secretly said that she was worthy of being the only son of the Zhang family.
Tu Guifei looked at Lin Xuanzhi appreciatively and chuckled: "The so-called gentleman is like this. β
"I don't know if the son of the Lin family, who is so beautiful and peerless, is as gentle as jade ever married?" But it was the Eight Sages Princess who turned her head and asked.
The Eight Sages Princess secretly said in her heart, can you still have a sister?
He replied with a smile: "Lord Lin has no distractions in his heart, and he is dedicated to the book of sages, but he has never decided on anyone. β
Tu Guifei smiled when she heard this, and asked Lin Xuanzhi: "I heard that Lingtang was ranked in the forefront of the top ten beauties in the Shendu that year, and I didn't believe it originally, but when I saw Lord Lin's demeanor today, I realized that the so-called top ten beauties, and the other nine are afraid that they are not all Lingtang's foils." β
Cui Yunxi's eyelids jumped wildly below, this Tu Guifei was afraid that she was going to be a demon, but she could only be in a hurry.
"The concubine is serious, Xuanzhi doesn't dare to be, and Xianci never cares about a little false name." Lin Xuan's heart was helpless, and he couldn't help but deal with it.
Tu Guifei smiled like a spring breeze, and said softly to Lin Xuanzhi: "There happens to be a younger sister in this palace, who is eighteen years old now, and she can go up to the hall and down to the kitchen, and her appearance is not first-class, but it will not insult Lord Lin's demeanor." β
"Why don't you just be a lady in the side room with Lord Lin?"
While speaking, another "sister" seemed to be brought up again, but it was a gentle girl in an emerald green gauze skirt, and her appearance and temperament were three points better than the previous sister.
Zhang Congwen in the distance saw it, and his heart was inevitably a little depressed, why did his sister make the main room for him, and give him Lin Xuanzhi's side room?
If you have a low threshold for your own home, you have to do this!
Lin Xuanzhi couldn't help but have a big head, but he could only shirk it euphemistically: "Wechen thank you for your kindness, but the minister is dedicated to national affairs, and he has no career and no shame to start a family." β
"Besides, the matter of marriage still needs to listen to the orders of the parents and the words of the matchmaker. Although the minister has no parents alive, his grandparents are still alive and he has to be raised by his aunt, so it is difficult for him to make his own decisions on this matter. β
"Moreover, the main room does not enter the side room first, it is not the work of everyone who writes poetry and etiquette, and I hope that Niangniang will take back her life."
The eldest lady got up at the right time, and she didn't care about complaining about Lin Xuanzhi's words when she knew the words of her parents' order, so she bowed and saluted: "The courtiers have seen the concubine Niangniang." β
Although Lin Xuanzhi's eldest uncle has not yet taken the throne, he also has a real job of being a third grade, and the eldest wife has a destiny.
"Gorou is the lifeblood of the old lady and the old lady in the family, and the marriage match still needs to be decided by the two old people, don't blame Goro."
Tu Guifei thought about the Lin Tianhu in Uncle Zhongyong's Mansion, and then looked at Lin Xuanzhi, who was as rich as jade below, and the twisted melon was not sweet......
But quench your thirst!
The concubine, who didn't give up, changed her words and said: "It's Meng Lang of the palace." Although my sister is good, she is indeed high enough to match Lord Lin. β
"It's just a matter of talking about the side room, if Mrs. Lin doesn't dislike it, it's better to take Yuanyuan back to the house to train and be a person in the room to serve Lin Wugongzi."
Does that mean take it back and make a room?
In this case, it seems that it is not impossible......
Compared with the kind of family tree in the side room, a girl in the room, I don't think the old lady cares.
When Lin Xuanzhi heard this, he subconsciously wanted to refuse, and he didn't know if he would take someone back in vain, who knew what was black and white.
He only felt that this Tu Guifei was a little unusual, and he didn't want to get involved with this woman.
"Concubine Niangniang, the minister......" Lin Xuan's words have not yet been spoken.
At this time, I only heard someone in the distance who couldn't help but flatter: "Guifei Niangniang, Brother Lin obviously doesn't want to worry about you, otherwise he will shirk it again and again." β
"He has been in and out with the third child of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion since he was a child, going in and out together, and he can't wait to stick together day by day."
"Both of them have never been married in their twenties, so they can't have made a private decision for life!"
"And I also heard that Lord Lin's mother became famous before she left the cabinet, which attracted many people to pursue it, it is said that ...... Hehe. β
"It seems that Lord Lin also has a bit of his mother's demeanor!"
"If you don't give up, Xiaosheng is willing to marry Yuanyuan girl in the side room."
The guests looked sideways at the person who spoke - Yang Wenwu, the son of Yang Ge, the deputy general of North Wind City.
And near it are the children of the enemy family, as well as Li Jin, the grandson of the king of Dongping County, who is sitting like a moon in the stars.
The Yuanyuan girl's eyes flashed with disgust, but she didn't say anything.
Su Jincheng almost wanted to get up, but was stopped by a woman in Tsing Yi who suddenly appeared behind him, with an ordinary face but an elegant temperament.
"Gorou can handle it."
Su Jincheng said sullenly: "Qingwei... Sister. β
Tu Guifei's smile remained unchanged, and she did not reprimand Yang Wenwu suddenly spoke, but said lightly: "This adult is cautious." β
The eldest lady and the three girls of the Lin family couldn't help but look at Yang Wenwu angrily, and together with the indignant were some people sitting among the Qingliu literati in the distance, including Lin Xuanzhi's eldest aunt.
Lin Xuanzhi's expression was calm, and he saluted the concubine above: "Forgive the minister for being rude." β
After speaking, he strode in front of Yang Wenwu and his party, and after only saying hello to Wang Shisun of Dongping County, he looked at Yang Wenwu lightly.
Qiu Jingnan and the others didn't know why, but they subconsciously sat up straight.
"You just said that?"
Yang Wenwu still seemed to be carried away when he heard this, and said: "The concubine Niangniang kindly gave you a marriage, but you are so ignorant." I'm just going to help you explain the reason, so as not to make things difficult for the concubine and your family. β
Syllable!
Only a loud voice resounded in the water pavilion, and everyone instantly fell silent.
Yang Wenwu covered his swollen face, spit out a few broken teeth with blood, and said with indistinct words and anger: "Lin Xuanzhi, you dare to hit me!" β
Qiu Jingnan and the others also changed their expressions slightly, as if they didn't expect Lin Xuanzhi to act directly in front of the nobles.
Lin Xuanzhi's expression was indifferent, and he opened his bow left and right before everyone reacted.
The sound of popping resounded through the water pavilion.
Yang Wenwu is as his name suggests, he is not successful in civil and military affairs, and after a few turns, his mind fell to the ground in a daze.
"If you beat you, you will be beaten, and you will not be able to pick a day?" Lin Xuanzhi's tone did not have the slightest wave.
Qiu Jingnan couldn't help but step forward, suppressed his anger and said, "Brother Lin......"
"Don't mess with relatives, I'm not as good as you."
Lin Xuanzhi glanced at Qiu Jingnan lightly, and turned condescending, looking at Yang Wenwu, who was swollen into a pig's head and confused, with a cold look in his eyes, his voice was as clear as a cold spring resounding throughout the audience.
"Verbal insults to the martyrs of the country!"
Qiu Jingnan's mouth that wanted to say anything more suddenly closed and quietly took half a step back.
The buttocks of Wang Shisun of Dongping County, who was about to get up, also sat down again.
"Oolu Oooo Yang Wenwu was subconsciously saying something.
Lin Xuanzhi was unmoved, and his tone became more and more cold: "Spread rumors and slander the protΓ©gΓ© of the Son of Heaven, the official of the imperial court, the son of the Marquis of Chaopin, the grandson of the eldest princess." β
"Yang Wenwu, you are miserable!"
"You've got a catastrophe!"
"I don't know what your old father who fought for the country in the North Wind City knows what to think."
Lin Xuanzhi turned around and bowed his hand slightly towards Wang Shisun of Dongping County and said, "This official is rude. β
After speaking, he didn't care about their reaction, returned to the front, and saluted the concubine and the princess of the eight sages above with a frightened expression: "Weichen is reckless, the phoenix frame is out of order, and I ask the concubine and the princess to forgive their sins!" β
"It's really this Yang Wenwu's words and deeds are informal, if he only quarrels with Weichen, he really insults Xianci with words, if he doesn't act, he is really a son of man."
"Not only that, but tomorrow's minister will also play Your Majesty, and he Yang Ge has no way to teach his godson, and he is not strict in governing the family!"
As for Yang Wenwu's white body, it is better to deal with it.
The crime of spreading rumors and insulting the officials of the court is enough for him to drink a pot.
Not to mention insulting the families of famous generals and martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the country?
After a few words.
Tu Guifei and the Eight Sages Princess glanced at each other, and then looked at Lin Xuanzhi, who was standing proudly below, neither humble nor arrogant, and they all had a plan in their hearts.
