The concubine is also very good today

Chapter 28
At this time, the guard at the Prime Minister's Mansion saw Xu Ruyi coming, and hurried forward to inquire about the situation. Seeing that he was here to visit Lin Chengqing, he went to the courtyard where the second room was located, and informed Lin Chengqing of the incident.

Lin Chengqing hurriedly said: "What are you still doing in a daze? Bring her in quickly!"

The boy responded, and turned around to tell Xu Ruyi.

Xu Ruyi then followed in the footsteps of the boy.

When she stepped into the Prime Minister's Mansion, Xu Ruyi couldn't help but feel a little emotional - she was very familiar with every brick and tile here, and she knew very well which way the servant in front of her was leading her.

Along the way, she didn't say a word, and went straight to the gate of the courtyard where Lin Chengqing was.

Unexpectedly, before he was admitted to the hospital, Lin Chengqing came to the door to greet him, he was leaning on crutches, limping forward, seeing Xu Ruyi coming, he hurriedly shouted: "Sister Zhaorong! "

They have known each other for about seven or eight years, right?
Every time we meet, he is so enthusiastic.

Xu Ruyi said to the boy: "Go down first."

The servant was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly looked towards Lin Chengqing, Lin Chengqing sternly reprimanded: "I told you to go down, didn't you hear?"

"Yes!" The boy backed away just now.

Seeing that the servant was about to retreat, Xu Ruyi twitched the corner of her mouth and said: "The rules of the Prime Minister's Mansion are quite strict, even the words of the palace don't work, the master of the family must speak in person."

Seeing Xu Ruyi's displeasure, Lin Chengqing quickly explained: "Sister Zhaorong, you misunderstood. We don't have such rules in the Prime Minister's Mansion. It's just that this new boy is ignorant, and he even dared to bump into the princess! Come on! This unruly thing is dragged on, and I will be punished thirty times!"

When the boy heard this, he was so frightened that he knelt down and begged for mercy: "My lord, spare me! My lord, spare my life!"

But Lin Chengqing's momentum was full: "Hurry up and pull it down!"

The next moment, the boy was dragged down, and then there was the sound of a stick.

But Lin Chengqing's anger didn't dissipate, and he still said angrily: "These slaves are really lawless, they dare to bully you, sister Zhaorong. Sister Zhaorong, don't be as knowledgeable as these slaves, lest you get angry body."

Xu Ruyi smiled gently and said, "Didn't the young master help Ben Gong vent his anger?"

"I said, I don't see anyone disrespecting you."

Yes……

He has said this sentence for seven or eight years, and he has indeed protected Xu Ruyi whenever something happened these years.

Xu Ruyi still remembered what he always said——she had no father or mother, and she was easily neglected by others in the palace alone.

These years, she has had a hard time, and he knows it.

Some words, said once may be regarded as a joke.

But after talking for a long time, I really believed it unconsciously.

Seeing Xu Ruyi's first visit to the prime minister's mansion, Lin Chengqing took the initiative to ask: "Sister Zhaorong, do you want to come in and sit for a while? I just wrote a few poems, and I want to invite you to appreciate them."

But Xu Ruyi politely declined, "I want to go to the garden."

Upon hearing this, Lin Chengqing hurriedly responded: "Okay, then we'll go to the garden. The flowers are in full bloom recently. My sister likes to appreciate flowers. I'll take my sister to have a look."

Xu Ruyi didn't really want to step into his yard, but seeing how caring he was, Xu Ruyi also chuckled lightly, pretending to be concerned and said: "Young master, don't worry, the most important thing is to recover well."

Lin Chengqing explained: "It's okay, my injury is not serious. The doctor said that my leg can still be healed. It will take a few months at the earliest. If it is fast, I can barely walk two steps now. It's not that serious."

"The young master should take a good rest!"

"Thank you, sister Zhaorong, for your concern."

Lin Chengqing was quite happy when Xu Ruyi said a few good words.

Xu Ruyi then continued as she walked: "The little son-in-law of my palace was not very sensible last time, and somewhat offended the young master. This time, I also apologize to you on his behalf."

This really flattered Lin Chengqing, and he quickly replied: "It's okay! The son-in-law is still young and doesn't have much contact with us, so it's inevitable that he will be a bit of a businessman. I just don't understand why my sister chooses him Where is the son-in-law?"

"Come here today, I just wanted to explain this matter to you. At that time in Wenyuan Pavilion, I couldn't explain it to you in front of so many people." Xu Ruyi then continued, "Marrying such a son-in-law, In fact, it is the meaning of the big lady."

"Ma'am what do you mean?"

Lin Chengqing couldn't understand, didn't Queen Mother Jiang wholeheartedly want to betroth Xu Ruyi to him?

But Lin Chengqing had no choice but to suppress the anxiety in his heart, and listened to Xu Ruyi continue: "This son-in-law is not old, and he doesn't understand the affairs of the court. If you want to entrust him to do something, he will definitely be able to do it honestly. This is what the big lady means."

Lin Chengqing asked: "What does the aunt want him to do?"

Xu Ruyi only said half of what she said, so she didn't continue to reveal it. She only left one sentence: "You just need to know that this is the meaning of the big lady. I can't refute the will of the big lady, including my own." Marriage. You know all this."

"But I don't understand, how big is it that the aunt loves you so much to make you make such a big sacrifice?"

Xu Ruyi sighed and said: "It's not a sacrifice, it's just a temporary plan to delay the troops. After these matters are settled properly, I can change a consort at any time, and then just find a reason to divorce him."

Xu Ruyi's attitude was a bit indifferent, and she couldn't see that she had any nostalgia for this little son-in-law.

Lin Chengqing still had some doubts at the moment, but before he could say anything, Xu Ruyi picked up the conversation and asked, "By the way, Young Master Lin, last time I said that I would help my palace thoroughly investigate the Imperial Academy, but now the mastermind behind the scenes is found it?"

Being interrupted by her like this, Lin Chengqing couldn't keep asking about the matter just now, so he could only respond: "I went back and asked, but Dou Zhong confessed that it was indeed a group of literati from the Imperial Academy colluding to make the businessman Embarrassing. They are not ashamed of a businessman climbing the royal branch."

"Who are they? I want to greet them one by one. It's my wedding banquet. They don't pay attention to me, the officials and the big lady!"

Seeing that Xu Ruyi wanted to investigate more carefully, Lin Chengqing looked very embarrassed, and hurriedly explained: "Sister Zhaorong, you misunderstood them. It is because they take you too seriously that they hate iron and steel and want to reprimand you. Besides, they don't want to reprimand you, their target is that unworthy son-in-law from the beginning to the end."

The two stood in the depths of the garden like this. While admiring the blooming flowers, Lin Chengqing agreed with Xu Ruyi sincerely: "We have been together for seven or eight years, right? When I first met you, you looked like a little bean Same, I am two years older than you, and my uncle told me to take good care of you. I remember when you were young, I often took you to the Royal Garden. Although the garden of the Prime Minister’s Mansion is not as beautiful as the Royal Garden, I often come here to enjoy the scenery. Sometimes I suddenly think of a sentence I said with you, so I write a poem and write a poem. To be honest, even if I am an elder brother, I hope my sister can marry a good family. Not to be wronged like this."

Xu Ruyi also looked at the flowers in the garden, and said firmly: "My aunt has the grace of rebuilding in this palace, and can work for her, so why should I feel wronged?"

Lin Chengqing said softly: "I only hope that one day, you can give yourself back to yourself, and live the rest of your life happily and in peace."
