Chapter 157: Visit the Chu Mansion
Early the next morning, Lin Jingyi prepared gifts and got into the carriage to Chu Mansion.
Thinking of the handsome and graceful King of Beiding, Lin Jingyi was full of joy, even if the maidservant had prepared a good gift for Lin Qingwan, she was not angry about it.
After being released by Emperor Dongjia, Lin Qingwan has been recuperating in the house, she injured her body in prison, and the doctor told her to recuperate.
With the company of her sweetheart, and no one to disturb her, Lin Qingwan's body recovered, and as soon as she was sent to the Chu Fu banquet in the court today, she heard a report from someone that it was Miss Lin who came to visit her.
"If you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, what is she doing when she comes to visit me?" Putting down the teacup in his hand, Lin Qingwan asked with a frown.
It is a sure fact that she and this nominal sister-in-law hate each other, she doesn't want to see Lin Jingyi, and she also understands that Lin Jingyi will not treat her more, the person who originally met her came to visit her early this morning, and she didn't believe that anything good could happen to Lin Qinghuan to death.
If she was usually not afraid of Lin Jingyi's intrigues, but now that her body has not healed, she doesn't want to block herself, Lin Qingwan glanced at the porter standing on the side, turned around and walked towards the inner room.
"I'm too injured to see a guest, so please go back. ”
"Wait!" Before the porter's words of resignation were spoken, he listened to Lin Qingwan's personal maid Tongque say, "It's okay for Miss to meet Miss Four." ”
Seeing the treacherous smile on Tongque's face, Lin Qingwan stopped, "Oh, when will you be able to pinch this girl?"
"Miss will know when she sees someone, and the slave promises that this time, she will never displease you. The bronze sparrow was still smiling mysteriously.
Lin Qingwan gave an eviction order, and the porter originally planned to retire, but when he saw that the person who spoke was the most useful copper finch girl next to his wife, he stood aside with interest, and sure enough, without waiting for the copper finch to speak again, he heard Lin Qingwan's voice as clear as a silver bell, "Since my sister has a heart, then invite her in." ”
The porter answered yes and respectfully withdrew.
Seeing Lin Qingwan staring at herself, Tongque stepped forward to add tea for her, and said with a smile, "Miss doesn't know, yesterday His Majesty issued a decree to give marriage, and pointed out the fourth lady of our family to the king of Beiding as a side concubine." ”
"Point Lin Jingyi to Lu Xian?" Emperor Dongjia acted this time without warning, and the holy decree was announced, and Lin Qingwan couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"It's true, so you can just suffer the gratitude of Miss Fourth today. Tongque pursed the corners of her mouth, "Miss is cultivating in the house, and I don't see outsiders, I'm afraid I'm going to be stuffy for so long, listen to the fourth lady say a few good words, it's good to relieve the boredom." ”
Miss had promised Lin Jingyi that day, as long as she stayed well, she would help her marry into the Beiding Palace, the former miss was just bluffing her, but she didn't want this Lin Jingyi to really get her wish, such a white favor should not be in vain, although Lin Jingyi may not be sincerely grateful to Miss, but can listen to the former enemy say a few flattering words, Tongque feels that it should be very relieved.
Lin Jingyi was quickly led to Lin Qingwan by the maidservant, she thought that Lin Qinghuan would walk in the Kyoto prison and shed her skin if she didn't die, but she didn't want to see that she was recovering well.
Thinking of today's intentions, Lin Jingyi had a kind smile on her face, "My sister has already heard about my sister's matter, but I am worried, but my sister is weak, and the princess is the pearl of His Majesty's palm, so I can't help my sister, and now that my sister is safe, my sister's heart can finally be put back in her stomach." ”
Sister Lao was worried. Lin Qingwan took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of her mouth, looking indifferent.
Lin Jingyi secretly hated in her heart, but the smile on her face did not decrease, "The holy decree of marriage has arrived in the mansion yesterday, and my sister came today to thank my sister for fulfilling it." ”
"Since I have fulfilled your wishes, I will fulfill your wishes. She understood what Tongque meant, although Lin Qingwan was still indifferent, but she admitted this favor.
Who wouldn't want to pick it up cheaply?
Whoever shows such a tall look, it is rumored that Chu Fuyan has a deep affection for Lin Qinghuan, she sees that this man has a bad brain, so he will fall in love with a woman like Lin Qinghuan, Lin Jingyi is even more disdainful, and the smile on her face is even brighter, as if Lin Qinghuan said something good to her.
"My sister feels sorry for me and is willing to fulfill my wish for me, but this friendship, my sister must keep it in mind, and she will repay her sister no matter what in the future. ”
Seeing that Lin Qingwan was holding a teacup and was reluctant to speak, Tongque knew that she was tired of Lin Jingyi's appearance, so she stepped forward and said with a half-joke, "What the fourth miss said is that this time, our young lady begged the queen for a long time in order to fulfill her wish for you, but the mother took pity on the young sister and took care of the young sister, so she made a statement to Your Majesty." ”
"What you said is that my sister has loved me since she was a child, and I can't forget this friendship. Lin Jingyi gritted her teeth and forced a smile.
The servile face didn't mean much, Lin Jingyi said that it was nothing more than a fake sisterhood that could not be faked, Tongque saw Lin Qingwan's expression, so she sent Lin Jingyi away on the grounds of her body.
Sending Lin Jingyi out of the Moon Residence, Tong Que turned the corridor and was about to go back to the courtyard, when he heard Lin Jingyi say hatefully, "Lin Qingwan, this slut, is just a sick seedling, you look at her sick appearance, she dares to be so cold to me, even the slut of Tong Que dares to tease me!"
"Miss, don't be angry, when you marry into the palace, no matter who she is Lin Qingjuan, she can't make a mistake in front of you. Seeing that she was annoyed, the personal maid who was waiting on the side hurriedly persuaded her.
The bronzeck sneered, and then turned back to the courtyard.
Anyone with a brain should understand the truth that the wall has ears, and in this Chu Mansion, such blatant bad words about the master's family, this fourth young lady is really as stupid as ever!
When Tongque returned to the Moon Residence, Lin Qingwan had changed into simple plain clothes, and the three thousand green silks were held by a white hosta, leaning on the chaise longue and holding a book to read, looking leisurely and calm.
Footsteps sounded, and Lin Qingwan put down the scroll with a smile.
"The rabid dog barks, and you love to go to your heart?"
Bronze Sparrow looked indignant, "Miss, you have already guessed that the fourth lady will talk about you behind your back?"
"There's nothing to be angry about. Lin Qingwan glanced at her lazily, "Lin Jingyi's mind doesn't understand, why should inconsequential people take it to heart." ”
Lin Jingyi's little episode did not disturb Lin Qingwan's recuperation, after Lin Jingyi left, she still lived her leisurely life in the middle of the moon, and in a blink of an eye, most of the injuries on her body were healed.
Draped a cloak on Lin Qingwan's shoulder, Tongque said bitterly, "Miss's injury is not yet complete, how can you sit outside and blow the wind." ”
"You girl is getting more and more verbose. Lin Qingwan pulled the cloak on his body and said with a smile, "My injury is almost healed, even if I go out, it's fine." ”
"Go out?" Tong Que felt that he couldn't keep up with his master's thoughts, "Miss, you don't want to go out, do you?" ”
"That's why I chose the day when he went out to run errands and wasn't at home. ”
Lin Qingwan nodded, looking like she understood me what you said, but she was anxious, "Miss, aren't you going to enter the palace?"
Since Lin Jingyi left that day, Miss has not mentioned the marriage again, she thought that Miss had not taken it to heart, but she didn't expect that it was this idea, and wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of her aunt to go out and enter the palace to see Queen Yue.
"Since you've guessed it, don't waste time, Ah Yan won't know when I'll be back, wait for me to change my clothes." Lin Qingwan stood up and walked towards the inner room.
Tongque knew that she couldn't persuade her, and Lin Qingjuan's health was almost better, so she had to wait for her to change into the formal clothes of the maiden, prepare the carriage, and go to the palace.
After getting into the carriage, Tongque still couldn't help complaining, "Uncle would be annoyed if he knew, Miss, you are too anxious, it's just a trivial matter, why bother to make this trip." ”
"I've been curious for a long time, Brass Sparrow. Lin Qingwan didn't seem to see the complaining look of the bronze bird, changed to a more comfortable posture, and said, "I think about it, most of this marriage is the handiwork of Queen Yue, if you don't ask clearly, I'm uncomfortable." ”
The Chu Fu banquet is hot now, and the female guards of the Chu Mansion naturally dare not offend, and the guards immediately let them go after the bronze bird showed the token, and the neat appearance seemed to be afraid of mistaking Lin Qingwan's matter.
When she arrived at the queen's bedroom, Lin Qingwan was politely welcomed in by the female officials beside the queen.
"Niangniang was still talking about it yesterday, saying that I don't know how Madame's health is, and today Madame, you are here. ”
Lin Qingwan showed a faint smile, "The courtiers are no longer in the way, so I am worried." ”
"What did you say, if the mother heard it, she would be upset. ”
Queen Moon seemed to have expected Lin Qinghuan to come, and after the female official invited Lin Qinghuan into the main hall, she waved away a group of palace maids who were waiting, and only Lin Qinghuan, Tong Que, Queen Yue, and the female official who welcomed Lin Qinghuan into the door were left in the huge hall.
"The courtiers greet the queen's mother. ”
"There are no outsiders here, so why should Madame be polite. Stretching out her hand to help Lin Qingwan, Queen Moon smiled kindly.
"How can the courtesy of the monarch and the minister be abolished, it is precisely because there are no outsiders, so the courtiers are just making a show, don't be surprised. ”
Lin Qingwan was half serious and half joking, Queen Moon seemed to be very pleased with her close tone, and the smile on her face became more obvious, "Madame is here today for His Majesty's marriage to the King of Beiding, right?"
Lin Qingwan smiled lightly, "Niangniang is smart." ”
Talking to smart people is labor-saving, Lin Qingwan is not a person who likes to talk a lot, but now that the queen understands her intention, she will not explain more.
"Madame's expectation is good, this matter is indeed because I made a statement to Your Majesty, but that Lin Jingyi could have been a concubine, but I don't know what Lu Xian said, Your Majesty should have made up his mind and demoted the side concubine, but it was cheaper for him. ”
"Thank you so much, mother. Although Lin Qingwan had already guessed it, she still felt an indescribable relief when she heard Queen Moon say it herself.
