Flowing delicacies were delivered to the feast.

The queen sat on the top and smiled: "This snow treading plum is specially made with milk sent from the border in the imperial dining room. The entrance is mellow, Your Majesty, you taste it. ”

"It's chic, and the name is elegant. This spring banquet is really very good, the emperor, the concubines are tired and thin when they see the queen, and you don't appreciate some good things and sympathize with the mother. ”

The person who spoke was dressed in a purple robe, full of pearls and emeralds, and extremely gorgeous. It is King Cheng's biological mother, Yi's.

Concubine Shu's words seem to be inviting the queen's favor, but in fact they are a big arrogance.

Since ancient times, only concubines will invite pets, but she is the queen, the most noble woman in the world.

"As the queen of this palace, it is within the scope of the palace to hold a spring banquet, how can we talk about compassion?" The queen's smile was still the same, her eyes swept over the concubine, and finally fell on the emperor beside her: "However, the reward is necessary, but the person who gets the reward is not the concubine." ”

Looking at the two noble women above, Lin Baiwei pulled Lin Yi'an's sleeve and said in a low voice: "Sister, this palace is really powerful." ”

Lin Yi'an's hand under the table made a silent movement, and looked at the smiling queen on her face.

I thought of seeing the queen for the first time in Zhengyang Palace. Lin Yi'an thought to himself: The so-called mildness is just an appearance.

"Your Majesty, the reason why there is a special snow treading and plum hunting in the imperial dining room is because the border war has subsided, so that the palace can have this fresh and authentic grassland milk. If it is about meritorious deeds, Xuanwu Marquis should be the first. "Queen's Road.

"The queen has a heart." The emperor smiled knowingly, "Mu Qing, the queen has opened your mouth for you, what do you want?" ”

The concubine remembered that Mu Qing had been unable to start a family because of the war abroad. Today's banquet is to congratulate the victory of the frontier. As the saying goes, good things come in pairs, and the emperor might as well give Mu Qing a good marriage. ”

The queen's words came up, how could Concubine Shu fall behind? Busy obeying the holy will: "The queen mother said very much. The concubine thinks that the sixth lady of the Lin family is very good, both moral and artistic, and she is a lady. ”

"Lin Shangshu, has Miss Lin Liu ever been married?" The queen asked with a smile.

Lin Zhenwen got up and replied, "Queen, no." ”

The queen nodded and said: "Speaking of which, Mu Qing and Miss Lin Liu are also fated, this palace heard that Mu Qing also saved Miss Lin Liu a few days ago. A young hero, a gentle beauty. Your Majesty, it's really a good match. ”

The atmosphere was in place, and the emperor was happy in the middle: "Mu Qing, what do you think?" ”

Mu Cheng stood up and saluted: "The minister is up to the emperor." ”

"Yes, yes!" The emperor smiled heartily: "Then I will marry the two of you and complete a good story!" ”

The Lin family saluted with Mu Cheng and said, "Minister, thank you Lord Longen!" ”

In the midst of the congratulations of all you and me, the spring banquet was a complete success.

Early the next morning, the decree of marriage arrived at the Lin Mansion.

"Fengtian carrier, the emperor said. Xuanwu Marquis Mucheng was born in the camp, heard the government and the opposition, and was loyal and honest. The six daughters of the Lin family are soft and submissive, restrained and frugal, and treat the word golden boudoir. The two of them have a good relationship, and now they will give marriage, and give books and clothes. Wangru and the two of them are of one heart and one mind, and they will do their best to give to the country, and do not live up to their intentions. Chin this—"

There is a Mrs. Hou in the family, which is really a great joy for the Lin Mansion.

Even Mrs. Lin, who has never been very close to her grandchildren, came over to talk to Lin Yi'an: "This is a good marriage." In the future, not only will you be rich, but it will also be regarded as the lintel of the Lin family. You can rest assured, the Lin family will not treat you badly, and will give you a rich dowry to let you marry out beautifully. ”

Lin Yi'an was blessed and said respectfully: "Granddaughter Xie Grandfather mentioned it." ”

The scenery is the scenery of the Lin Mansion, not hers.

Back in Xiangmantang, Lin Baiwei was sitting on a round stool waiting for her: "Sister, you're getting married, are you happy?" ”

Lin Yi'an thought for a while: "Marrying Xuanwu Hou is the best I can marry as an identity." I think I should be happy. ”

"But I'm not very happy." Lin Baiwei muttered quietly.

Mu Cheng is a military general and a young marquis. It was highly used by the emperor. It does seem like it's in full swing now, but what about the future? After he won one battle after another, the more majestic and powerful the army became, could the royal family tolerate him?

There are no eggs under the nest.

What about my sister, what about my sister?

Seeing her distracted, Lin Yi'an patted her sister's head and asked strangely, "What are you thinking?" ”

Lin Baiwei came back to her senses and wrapped her arms around Lin Yi'an's waist affectionately: "I'm thinking, no matter what, I will protect my sister." ”

As if touching the softest place in his heart, Lin Yi'an was stunned and gently rubbed his sister's head: "Silly sister, I'm my sister." ”

Time flies, but in just a few days, Lin Yi'an has become the object of Beijing's envy.

The reason is simple.

When Xuanwu Hou came to Lin Mansion to be hired, peach blossoms spread the ground, beating gongs and drums.

Eighty-eight dowry gifts were carried all the way from Xuanwu Hou's Mansion to Lin Mansion, and the people on the street surrounded one layer after another.

Everyone said that this Xuanwu Hou was rich and rich, and Miss Lin Liu took a big advantage.

The momentum of his employment was so great that the folk even published a limerick poem:

General Mu, who is rich and rich, saves beauties on Furong Street, and the Son of Heaven gives marriage a good thing. Eighty-eight dowry gifts for beautiful women, marrying people should marry Xuanwu Marquis.

Well, no matter where Lin Yi'an goes, there will always be various ladies holding her hand and saying to her with a smile: "Oh, Miss Lin Liu is so blessed!" can make Xuanwu Hou re-employed, what is the secret method in it, can you say it, so that my uncompetitive girl can learn! ”

But Lin Yi'an himself doesn't know why, where can he say it clearly?

Every time I can only laugh and laugh, after a few days, my face is stiff with laughter.

Alas.

It's hard to get married.

Lin Yi'an lay on the table, rubbing his face that was smiling stiffly, very melancholy.

Lichun knocked on the door and came in: "Miss, this is the wedding dress given by the queen's mother." ”

The big red wedding dress was folded squarely, and it was lying quietly in the Zhujin wood carved square plate.

Lin Yi'an stretched out his hand to stroke the fine embroidery of the stitches, and under his fingertips was the pattern of mandarin duck pomegranates. She was suddenly in a trance.

Fourteen years passed in this way in the Lin Mansion.

That's fast.

Lin Yi'an's eyes suddenly wet.

Mother, I miss you.

"I've wondered countless days and nights when this day will come."

In the ancestral hall of the Lin family, Lin Baiwei stood in the middle of the lobby, looking at the Wen family's slight distraction.

"Have you ever imagined that one day you would kneel in front of my mother?" Lin Baiwei turned around and her eyes fell on the woman in plain clothes, "Huh? Big lady. ”

Li closed his eyes and knelt on the futon, silent.

Lin Baiwei walked up to the Li family and said casually: "You must think that if your sister marries Mu Houye, no one will be able to stop Lin Yueman from entering the East Palace." ”

"Originally, I was happy that she could marry into the East Palace. But I changed my mind. I think ......" Lin Baiwei paused and said with a smile: "It's better for me." ”

Li Shi suddenly opened her eyes, her vicious gaze was like a snake in the dark night.

"You're a concubine."

"But my mother's tablet is enshrined in the ancestral hall."

The corners of Lin Baiwei's mouth curled into a gentle smile: "It's a pity." The second sister's mother suffered in the ancestral hall, and the second sister's own sister was ruined. But I have a sister who is Mrs. Hou. Madame, who do you say has a better chance of winning? ”

Li hated his teeth so much that a few words almost popped out of his back molars: "What do you want?" ”

"If you are interested, let Lin Yueman climb another high branch. If she's not interested, I don't mind sending her away. ”

"You!" Li said hatefully: "Extremely arrogant! ”

Lin Baiwei raised her eyebrows: "I'm arrogant, what can you do?" ”

She smiled.

"This East Palace, I'm settled."
