Chapter 163

There were so many actions in the capital all of a sudden, the Xu family naturally paid attention.

After Xu Zhaozhao finished cleaning up early in the morning, he planned to go to Da Lao to see Xu Chengqing. After all, so many days had passed, he had been in the prison all along, and he didn't know how he was doing.

Yuan Shao stayed with Yuan Luyi for the past two days. Her belly was getting bigger and the capital was not peaceful. He was worried, so he accompanied her personally.

It was already the twelfth lunar month of winter, and there were still some snow particles when he got up early, so Xu Zhaozhao found a light blue cloak to wrap around, and went towards Dali Temple with a hot food box.

"Miss, be careful." The maid lowered her head and helped her into the carriage, and said softly.

"I know." Xu Zhaozhao looked at her, smiled slightly, and stepped into the carriage to go forward.

The carriage walked forward unhurriedly. After passing through the downtown area, there was a quiet and spacious road.

Because it is near Dali Temple, there are usually no people coming over, so after turning a big bend in front, there are basically no people in sight.

Xu Zhaozhao's carriage was followed by four guards, and when they just walked to the middle area, there was a lot of movement in the dark.

Xu Zhaozhao sat quietly in the carriage, feeling a little apprehensive. In fact, at the beginning Mo Yue said that when someone wanted to do something to her, she didn't believe it. Now it seems that it is really the case.

"coming!"

Sitting with her, Mo Yue, who was dressed as a maid, suddenly spoke, and immediately said to Xu Zhaozhao: "Miss Xu, be careful for a while."

"Don't worry!" Xu Zhaozhao took out the dagger for protection, and said firmly: "For a while, you just go to finish what the empress told you, don't worry about me, I can protect myself."

Mo Yue smiled at her, and soon there was the sound of swords clashing outside.

Mo Yue carefully looked out through the curtain, and saw a faint figure standing in the alley not far away, so she gritted her teeth and rushed there quickly.

These individuals must be defeated individually to be useful!

She moved forward quickly, and those who came to assassinate noticed her movement and immediately tried to stop her, but the guards who followed the carriage also quickly killed her, and their skills were not low.

Xu Zhaozhao was apprehensive, waiting for someone to kill her, but after waiting for a while, no one came to kill her, instead the carriage was driven away.

She opened the car curtain in astonishment, looked at the stranger driving the horse ahead, drew out her dagger and gritted her teeth secretly: "Where are you taking me?"

"Won't you know when you go?" The man said coldly, then turned his head and stabbed at her directly.

Xu Zhaozhao narrowly escaped, but this time she didn't hesitate any longer. Although it was a three-legged cat's skill, she still held a large handful of medicine powder in her hand!
She snorted softly, sprinkled the powder, and then drew out the dagger and stabbed it out fiercely.

Mo Yue didn't have time to take care of this for the time being, so she chased forward wholeheartedly, and when she saw that the person in the alley was Tao Mou, she smiled coldly and raised her sword to kill him.

Tao Mou also realized what Mo Yue's purpose was, and turned around to leave quickly, but before he could get out of the alley, he was stopped by Mo Yue.

"Since Mr. Tao has come in person, why do you need to leave?" Mo Yue's sword fell to the ground, and when he slowly approached him, the tip of the sword scratched the bluestone floor, making a chilling sound, like hell. Soul-stimulating sound.

"You have long expected that I would make this move?" Tao Mou suddenly reacted.All that Lin Jinhua did was to stimulate Xianyue and force her to reach out from the dark, and only then did Lin Jinhua catch them all!
What a small fight, her thoughts are really delicate, she can guess people's hearts so accurately!

Mo Yue snorted coldly: "What's so hard to guess about your actions?" After she finished speaking, she stopped talking to her, and seeing people gradually surrounding her, she directly put her sword on someone who didn't know martial arts at all. Tao Mou's heart.

After Xu Zhaozhao kicked the man off the carriage, he realized that the carriage had already arrived at the gate of Dali Temple, and the new Minister of Dali Temple, Mr. Zheng, came out to greet him in person.

As soon as Zheng Qiong saw her, he asked, "Miss Xu, what happened..."

"Hurry up, Mr. Zheng lead the troops there!" Xu Zhaozhao hurriedly said.

Seeing her anxious look, Zheng Qiong didn't say much, and immediately summoned all the servants in the mansion to follow. At that time, it happened that Mo Yue took down Tao Mou.

At this moment in the Lin Mansion, when Lin Jincheng received the news that Tao Mou had been arrested, he finally let go of the big stone that had been weighing on his heart.

He came in from the outside, warmed himself in the compartment, and then went to the inner room.

Seeing that Wang Ruyan was already awake, sitting on the bedside drinking medicine, and frowning uncomfortably from time to time, he felt distressed, and immediately stepped forward and whispered: "Is it better?"

"It's much better, and I'm worrying you." Wang Ruyan smiled when she saw her standing at the door.

Her face was translucent, with lingering sorrow, but there was also a deep love in her eyes. She knew that her husband really loved her, and she also loved him deeply.

Lin Jincheng walked over to the bed, took the medicine bowl from the hand of the maid on one side, and sent them all away, and then he personally blew the medicine and fed her a spoonful of it. After the feeding, he immediately took a piece of candy The cake came to her, which relieved the bitter taste in her mouth.

Wang Ruyan smiled lightly, remembering the maid nagging in her ear recently, she still asked him: "I heard that there is a girl in the mansion?"

Seeing her mentioning it proactively, Lin Jincheng stepped forward and took her cool hand, and nodded with a helpless smile: "You know the strangeness of this girl, if you think about it."

"Well, I heard what the maids said."

"They know that your mouth is broken all day long, and you have a heavy heart, so what do you say to you?" Lin Jincheng was annoyed when he mentioned it. Wang Ruyan is a delicate person, especially after those things happened, she became more and more angry. That's it.

Wang Ruyan comforted him with a smile: "I didn't think much about it, I just thought that there would be a problem if such a girl suddenly appeared in these troubled times?"

Lin Jincheng nodded: "I also think it's strange, so I ordered someone to investigate, but no one has reported back, and I don't know what the result will be. Back then, my father was very indebted to the stillbirth, so if the girl's suspicions are not so serious, I will I'm worried that Daddy will really love her very much."

When Wang Ruyan heard the words, she only smiled weakly: "If it's true, it's no problem to make up for it. It was only the Qi State that was established. I saw Jinhua, who usually looks the same as before, leisurely and carefree, but she is the one who wants to She has to think about things inside and out, if she is not sure about this matter, whether to persuade her father, then the girl will not recognize her for the time being."

"This……"

"I know you don't like to hear such words, but you can only be good if Jinhua is good. I can only be this bad guy. Jincheng..." Wang Ruyan looked at him deeply, and said, "I can't help you much. It's a hindrance, so I don't hope that one day, you will regret it as much as I do, so even if you want to recognize this girl, you have to wait until a year later..."

Lin Jincheng looked at her worried and cautious look, stepped forward to gently hold her in his arms, and smiled: "Don't worry, I will do as you said, even if she is really the abandoned baby girl back then, There is no reason to let her pass Jinhua."

Wang Ruyan smelled the faint fragrance of his body, and then raised the corners of her lips and smiled.

It was only when Mo Yue returned to the palace that Lin Jinhua finally knew that there was an extra Chen A Miao in the Lin family, but Mo Yue didn't know the details, only because she heard a few words from the servants of the Lin family.

"It is said that I was born very similar to you, except that there is a big birthmark on my face. I also heard that the general mentioned that you once had a twin sister, but she died when she was born. The general now suspects that Chen A Wonderful, it's your twin sister, otherwise I can't explain why she looks so much like you." Mo Yue said.

Hearing these words, Lin Jinhua always felt strangely nervous.

She thought for a while, and then said: "You should find someone to watch this matter first, and since it is the stillbirth that the midwife said, immediately ask someone to investigate the midwife back then. If she is still alive, bring her back to see me, but if someone is killed If you get killed..."

Lin Jinzhen narrowed her eyes dangerously, daring to pretend to be her relatives to deceive her father's feelings, it is simply unforgivable!
Mo Yue quickly responded.

When leaving, she, who was always neat, still hesitated.

"Are you worried about Chang Qing?" Lin Jinhua asked her.

"Well, he was locked in the dungeon, watched by Concubine Jiang, and the slaves were always worried that something would happen..." Mo Yue said what was in her heart. She had followed Lin Jinhua for so long, and she had learned a bit of her temper, and she was not coy Man, since she likes Changqing, she doesn't hide it anymore.

Seeing how frank she was, Lin Jinhua smiled and said, "Send the old empress' order again to call Concubine Jiang into the palace. If she doesn't come, she will be brought in directly on the grounds of disobedience to the imperial order."

Hearing this, Mo Yue immediately knelt down and bowed to her: "Thank you, Ma'am, for your success!"

Lin Jinhua smiled, it was all because of her, this time she called Concubine Jiang to come in, but she also had to deal with the eldest grandson Qiye's affairs, and I don't know if Concubine Jiang is satisfied with the concubine selection she is doing now.

"Tao Mou, keep him in secret custody for the time being. He and I have other uses." Lin Jinhua said again.

"Yes." Mo Yue quickly responded, then turned around and left.

As soon as she left, Mother Cui brought the soup, looked at her with a smile and said, "Empress Empress, you have been tired recently, drink some soup to refresh yourself."

Speaking of tiredness, Lin Jinhua got up and moved, looked out the window, and there was already a slight layer of snow on the ground outside.

She thought that Tao Mou had been caught so easily, and the emperor had controlled He Lianjing again, and she felt much better, so she called A Baolai, and together they went to the yard to collect freshly fallen snow, and prepared to make tea.

The snowflakes were falling slowly, one piece after another. Lin Jinhua led a few maids to search from the East Palace to the West Palace. If they wanted the snow that fell on the undefeated flowers, the tea would be fragrant, and there would be rare cheers in the palace. Laughing language.

The old lady woke up at this moment and heard the laughter outside, wanted to get up and move, but found that half of her body was unconscious.

She thought she was numb from falling asleep, she frowned and shouted: "Come on, come on!"

The imperial doctor who had been serving came quickly, saw her nervous look, and asked, "Queen Mother, what are your orders?"

"Why can't Ai Jia half of his body move? Was it poisoned?" She realized it subconsciously.Gongdou has been fighting all her life, day and night, only fighting is in her mind, only fighting, and she believes that everything is the result of fighting.

But when she finished asking suspiciously, the imperial physician shook her head in embarrassment and said, "You can't move half of your body now because of a stroke."

"what?"

"Empress Dowager, don't get angry, otherwise the other half of your body will also..."

"Shut up! Impossible, Ai's body has always been good, how could it suddenly be like this, you must have poisoned Ai's family, it must be like this!" She cursed and raised her hand to smash things, but she moved again No, the action is extremely embarrassing.

She only became flustered now, she has always been domineering and domineering to others, how can she bear that she has become a complete loser and is taken advantage of by others?

"Wino, call him here!"

"Queen Mother, County King Xian has received the emperor's imperial decree and is going to the southwest. He may be packing up his things at the Prince's Mansion this time." After the imperial doctor told the truth, the old queen mother was so angry that her heart ached, she rolled her eyes and passed out again.

Lin Jinhua was standing outside the courtyard at this moment, and upon hearing her words, she felt a lot more relieved.

Now she has no ability to harm others, and she is just a hateful but poor old woman.

The nurse in charge who is in charge of taking care of the Compassionate Palace now will come forward, smiled obsequiously, and then saluted: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is at peace now, don't worry, the slaves will take good care of you in the future."

Lin Jinhua only glanced at her before asking others, "Where is Nurse Ning, who used to serve the Empress Dowager?"

"What did you ask her for? After you replaced the servants of the Compassionate Ning Palace, the slaves were worried that she would be disrespectful to you by serving by the Queen Mother's side for so many years, so they tried to transfer to Huanyifang. Now this cold winter In the twelfth lunar month, she has never done rough work, so her hands must have been cracked by the cold..."

The nanny seemed to be trying to please her, but Lin Jinhua frowned slightly.

She can guarantee that Huaiyan will only marry herself now, so what about when Putao grows up?How many will he marry, and when he grows old, will there be such slavish slaves who go beyond their own duties and do some bullying things in order to please someone?

She thought for a while, then glanced at the nanny and said: "From now on, Madam Ning will be in charge of the Palace of Compassion and Ning, and the usage of the Palace of Compassion and Ning will still follow the Queen Mother's rules. After all, the Queen Mother is the Queen Mother." , then stepped forward.

Just watch the old lady and stop being a monster, but she probably can't do it now.

After coming out, Lin Jinhua looked at the picked snow and felt a little more at ease. She walked back along the vermilion high wall with her head lowered and slowly stepped on the footprints when she came with a smile.

On her way back, someone just came around the corner.

He Lianjing looked at Lin Jinhua, who was dressed in fancy clothes but looked like a girl, her eyes deepened.

"Back then, I wholeheartedly supported you to sit in the position of deputy pavilion master of Yunshuijian, and allowed you to follow Xianyue infatuatedly. Now, do you regret it?" Zhao Huaiyan only looked at the direction Lin Jinhua was leaving, turned and walked outside the palace .

"Can regret be useful..."

"At least you can rein in the precipice. If you continue, Xianyue will definitely die in my hands, and you should understand very well. I know that she is in the capital now, and the reason why I haven't killed her is only because she and grandson Xuan There is something entangled with Yin, so she is saved for her life, but it does not mean that she must be right and wrong. If I want to kill her, it is as easy as flipping the palm of my hand."

He Lianjing was not too worried after hearing this.

He doesn't care about Xianyue's life or his own, and he doesn't want to become sober to see whether what he is doing is right or wrong.

"I know you are sincere. When you were in the cottage, you once said that you would become the leader of the martial arts alliance and be famous all over the world." Zhao Huaiyan said as he walked forward.The vast Forbidden City is covered with snow, cold and pure, making people feel clean at a glance.

He Lianjing stopped and didn't continue to follow him, but the high-spirited young man from back then appeared in his mind.

He looked at Zhao Huaiyan's back, who still didn't stop, and said louder: "The emperor thinks, do I still have a way out now?"

"Whether there is, you know." Zhao Huaiyan didn't turn his head, just said: "If you think clearly, you can go out of the Forbidden City at any time. If you think clearly, just stand here. Otherwise, see you next time, no If you die, I will die."

Helian Jing didn't speak.

He raised his head and looked at the snowy sky, and the cold wind was blowing, falling on his increasingly resolute face.

He was also in a trance.

This whole life has been revolving around the crescent moon. At this point, is there any so-called retreat?

The snow fell rustlingly, and at night, the snowflakes became bigger, but Lin Jinhua received a gift from outside the palace at this time. It was sent by Mo Yue, who was sent by Changsun Xuanyin outside the palace, in a wooden box , with a plum blossom.

"Plum blossoms..." Lin Jinzheng looked at the icy fragrance of plum blossoms, and remembered that he had spread rumors that he was a plum blossom thief, and smiled slightly: "His junior sister Xin Yi must have a good idea."

"Your Majesty, the plum garden where he was hiding before has been confiscated by the government. Someone came to report tonight, saying that a carriage ran out of the city, but no one was caught, but when the carriage passed, it left behind a field of plum blossoms. .” Mo Yue said.

"He left for the time being." Lin Jinhua put down the plum blossom, and said calmly: "He is really an unpredictable person, but whether he is escaping or has other plans, you should find someone to watch, find a plan, and kill him without mercy. "

Lin Jinhua spoke very plainly, because she knew that there was almost zero chance of sending those people under her command to kill Elder Sun Xuanyin. If that was the case, she could only wait for his purpose to gradually surface.

"Yes."

"Concubine Jiang still hasn't invited?" Lin Jinhua asked again.

"Yes, the kind that presumes that she is seriously ill and can die if she goes out." Mo Yue was still a little annoyed when she mentioned this matter. This Concubine Jiang was so dishonest at a critical moment.

"That's all." Lin Jinhua said: "In a few days, an envoy will arrive. At that time, the emperor will arrange to go hunting in the Western Mountains. She will definitely go at that time."

"Hunting in Xishan?" Mo Yue was a little worried.

Lin Jinhua smiled slyly: "Now some ministers in the court are not easy to take action, so we can only use some special methods to force them to do so. To eliminate a wave of mobs, the court should be clean."

When Mo Yue heard this, she also relaxed and laughed.

In the evening, Zhao Huaiyan put down the government affairs and came back to have dinner together. Lin Jinhua sent everyone else out on purpose, leaving only acquaintances, and asked someone to set up a hot soup pot in the small side hall.

She is one with Zhao Huaiyan, and Mo Feng and others are the first to support one.

Putao and Jiu'er sat in the cradle, looking at Lin Jinhua eagerly.

Lin Jinhua looked at the two chubby guys with a smile, put a piece of blanched meat in her mouth happily, grinned her mouth greedily, and the saliva flowed out.

"Call me mother, and mother will give you a taste." Lin Jinhua teased Jiu'er.

Jiu'er's pitch-black eyeballs looked at her flesh, and then at the voice she made, and vaguely called out the word 'mother', although it was not clear, she could vaguely make out the word , Lin Jinhua was so happy that she asked the wet nurse to serve her a bowl of goat's milk.

The wine was always open to anyone who came, and he drank two mouthfuls, and the silent grape on one side opened his mouth, and shouted out the word 'Nianqin', which made everyone in the room wide-eyed. .

It was rare for Zhao Huaiyan to hug him, and said: "Pao, call Father Emperor..."

"Mother..." Putao's milky voice repeated so childishly that Lin Jinhua's eyes curled into crescent moons with joy, and he rewarded him with a bowl of goat's milk before finishing.

The room was warm and warm, and Aunt Cui was waiting on the side. I couldn't help but think of the appearance of the young lady when I first saw the empress. Youai also set up a soup pot to eat happily in this winter. Now, in the blink of an eye, More than a year has passed.

In the small side hall, the aroma of food is lingering, making people salivate, making the maids who failed to come in envious, and the news that the empress loves to eat soup pot-boiled meat quickly spread like wildfire. The streets and alleys are full, and the capital quickly set off a hot pot.

"This queen empress is a good one. Fortunately, we brought her the best beef and mutton from Mongolia this time!"

This time, they were stationed in a post station not far from the capital, and the crowd surrounded the people who came to congratulate them this time, and said with smiles.

One of them, a young and pretty girl with beautiful braids, raised her chin triumphantly, stepped on a stool beside her and patted her chest triumphantly: "That's natural, my Mongolian beef and mutton are the best in the world. Especially the royal tribute!"

"Baozhu, be more gentle. It is said that men in Qi State like gentle and considerate women. You are still as rough as you are on the grassland. What if you can't get married?" The tall man with pigtails on one side smiled. road.

"Brother, don't worry, for the future of Mongolia, I will tie a man back even if I tie him up. Don't the men in Qi country believe in cooking raw rice? When the time comes, I will marry him. I think he will dare not marry him!" Princess Orb said proudly.

Batu shook his head helplessly. It would be great if his sister was a boy. Such a heroic woman might not be popular in Qi State!

But no matter what, he came here to make a kiss anyway, if it really doesn't work, he can only think about it and sacrifice himself...

Baozhu saw him sighing, but she didn't worry too much. It was rumored that the empress of Qi country had traveled all over the world and fought in wars. Such a woman could become a queen, and she had to be favored by the emperor alone. She didn't believe that no one likes her. !

The siblings talked for a while before going to rest.

Before dawn the next day, the mission began to set off for Beijing.

Xian Yue who got the news was in her yard at this time, and now she is in a mess.

"Tao Mou didn't come back?"

"It should be arrested." The maid on the side said: "Princess, this place is not safe anymore. If you also follow the example of the king, you should leave earlier."

"He's a coward, he's been around for a woman all day long, and he ran away at the critical moment!" Xianyue snorted coldly, she knew the purpose of Changsun Xuanyin, but what she couldn't figure out was that since he liked his little junior sister so much , why change her little junior sister's face into someone else's, and send her to another man?What is he planning?
The maid didn't make a sound. Speaking of which, didn't He Lianjing circle around the princess all the time.

But the maid didn't dare to say it, she just said: "Princess, what shall we do next?"

"Now that they are taking such tight precautions against the people around me, what else can I do? What about grandson Qiye, have you fed him the medicine for today?"

"It's already been fed." The maid nodded.

"That's good."

"But princess, according to what Tao Mou said, our place has already been targeted. If you attack King Mu now, will you push them into a hurry..."

"It would be better if it's urgent, I'm already impatient. I heard that this time the Mongolian mission came to Beijing, and they will go hunting with them in the Western Mountains?" Xianyue said coldly.

"Yes."

"Very good, go get ready, I want to meet the Mongolian envoy!" Xian Yue turned around and looked at her face in the bronze mirror.

The last time she was injured, even though her legs were crippled, her face was still pretty. She didn't believe that a man would be indifferent.

But it turns out that she really overthinks it. This Prince Batu doesn't like the kind of monsters that the common people think are good-looking. Even Lin Jinhua is beautiful in his eyes. , but can only be seen from a distance, on the contrary, Ah Bao, who has a round face and round eyes and is a little bit blessed recently, in his eyes is a shocking existence, just like the little lamb that has just grown new hair on the grassland It seems soft, soft, white and cute.

When Ah Bao was serving Lin Jinhua to receive the envoys today, he always felt that this man was looking at him from time to time, which made her face turn red with embarrassment.

Lin Jinhua is sitting at the top right now, and below are Lin Luzhi, Xu Boshan, and several important ministers.

"Did you come from Mongolia this time, did you bring us a gift for the Great Qi Emperor?"

Before the officials from the Ministry of Rituals had time to speak, the ministers on one side hurriedly spoke.

Lin Jinhua took a look and found that he was really from the former Southern Xinjiang.

There were a group of people who resigned at the beginning, but are those who refused to resign still so stubborn?
When Batu heard this, he felt a little unhappy, but he still had self-knowledge, and quickly asked someone to bring up the things, especially the chilled beef and mutton, and said with a smile: "I learned that the Empress likes Try something new, this time, I specially prepared some of the best Mongolian beef and mutton, and please don't mind the empress."

"What do you think of my Empress Da Qi? Are you willing to take out just such beef and mutton?" The minister said loudly just now, as if he didn't notice that Lin Jinzheng had cooled down slightly.

Lin Jinhua's eyes were cold, and just as she was about to speak, Baozhu, who was sitting next to Batu, couldn't help standing up angrily: "You queens haven't even spoken, so what kind of mouth are you talking about? Are you the queen, or the one sitting above you?" Is that the queen?"

Batu hurriedly went to pull his sister. The minister's face was slightly green, and he wanted to continue speaking, when he heard Lin Jinhua's cool voice: "Master Zuo wants to sit in the queen's seat of this palace. Why don't I get up and take this seat?" May I give it to you?"

"I don't dare." The minister naturally heard that Lin Jinhua was teasing him.

"Don't you dare? Isn't Master Zuo very courageous just now, he has spoken so much on behalf of Ben Gong, are you thirsty? Come, bring Master Zuo two more pots of tea." Lin Jinhua said directly.

The people next to him couldn't help snickering when they heard it, and Xu Boshan said at this time: "Master Zuo, don't you always say that you don't feel well recently, don't force yourself today, go down and rest."

"I……"

"Yes." Zhao Huaiyan said immediately.

The Zuo lord's complexion was slightly pale, he gritted his teeth secretly when he saw the ridicule, and then walked away dejectedly.

As soon as he left, Batu looked at Lin Jinhua and Zhao Huaiyan cautiously, and said, "Your Majesty, Empress, we really didn't intend to humiliate you this time..."

"I understand, I like the things you sent me very much." Lin Jinhua smiled lightly, and Ah Bao knowingly put on a plate. It was a reward Lin Jinhua had prepared in advance, an extremely rare night pearl, and a A jade pendant carved with an eagle.

The eagle represents the grassland and is also the national emblem of the Mongolian people today.

When Batu saw this jade pendant, his heart also settled down. He knew that he had not offended the emperor and empress, so he was relieved.

What he said next was nothing more than polite words, but it could be seen that the sincerity of Mongolia's tribute this time was very high.

Just when the banquet was about to end, Lin Jinzheng wanted to invite Concubine Jiang from the palace several times, but now she came by herself.

Lin Jinhua had someone send Batu and Baozhu to the post house to rest, and only then did she meet Concubine Jiang.Zhao Huaiyan was not here, so he didn't want to see him. When Lin Jinhua left, he said, "You don't have to take her words to heart. The reason why you keep her is to appease the hearts of Xixia's surrendered soldiers. I have no love for her mother and child." It's all over." From the time she showed her true colors, and from the time she resorted to all means, Zhao Huaiyan only became her biological mother and passed away more than ten years ago.

Lin Jinhua knew the haze in his heart, even if he was as strong and resolute as him, he would always be full of holes when it came to his relatives.

Lin Jinhua returned to her palace, and when she saw Concubine Jiang, she was wearing a plain brocade gown with black and white brocade, which made her look particularly elegant and dignified.

When I saw her again, she was still the beautiful woman she once was, but most of her hair was gray, and the corners of her eyes were also covered with deep wrinkles.

The beauty is beyond the skin, and Lin Jinhua feels that she no longer has the elegant and calm charm of the past.

"The concubine entered the palace this time because of Prince Mu's marriage." Lin Jinhua directly passed her and sat down at the head, and asked someone to serve tea, without looking at her again.

Concubine Jiang saw that she was waiting for her to pay her respects, so she knew that she no longer regarded herself as Huaiyan's biological mother, but as her mother-in-law...

She smiled slightly: "Since the empress knows about it, my wife... I won't say much." When she mentioned the word "chenfu", she especially emphasized these two words.

Lin Jinhua put down the teacup and smiled slightly: "Does the concubine have a girl she likes?"

"My wife thinks that Princess Baozhu who came today is not bad."

"Is that true, His Royal Highness King Mu also thinks so?" Lin Jinhua just acted as if she didn't know about the eldest grandson Qi Ye.

Concubine Jiang frowned slightly: "Prince Mu..."

"I don't easily give marriages for others now. Even if I personally invite Prince Mu, I must satisfy King Mu. Now that the concubine has spoken, I can't refuse, but is King Mu willing?" Lin Jinhua said slowly , it was this slow tone that successfully aroused the impatience in Concubine Jiang's heart.

She said indifferently: "Marriage is the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker..."

"I don't care about the orders of my parents. As long as King Mu agrees, I can decide on this marriage. Otherwise, the concubine will be free tomorrow, so let's take His Royal Highness King Mu to the palace. Otherwise, I will be hunted in the west mountain in the future, and I will be full of talents." , if Princess Baozhu takes a fancy to other men, it will be hard for me to be that villain who beats mandarin ducks, don't you think?" Lin Jinyu still smiled softly.

Concubine Jiang's teeth were clenched even more, what is the reason for this, she obviously wanted to force herself to bring Qi Ye here!
When the two were confronting each other, the wet nurse suddenly came out from the room and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, something happened to the prince!"

"What's the matter?" Lin Jinhua immediately stood up and asked nervously, the wet nurse's face turned slightly pale, and she couldn't articulate what she was nervous about.Lin Jinhua knew that the child was playing in the cubicle, so she went in quickly.

Concubine Jiang frowned, watched her go in, thought about it, and followed her in.

When Lin Jinhua went inside to take a look, she realized that Putao grabbed a candy cake out of curiosity and stuffed it into her mouth, only to choke on it.

Lin Jinhua quickly fetched water and silver needles, and after a lot of busy work, she neglected to see Concubine Jiang follow in.

Mo Feng watched carefully, but Jiu'er, who was sitting on the other side of the warm couch, was frightened by the battle, sobbing and crying with his mouth flattened.

Concubine Jiang was looking at Lin Jinhua's anxious look coldly, she felt her hand go soft, and when she turned her head, she saw a chubby little girl looking at her with teary eyes, her small mouth was so wronged The appearance, and the soft touch from the palm of my hand is that she is holding my hand.

"hug……"

The nurse was so nervous that she couldn't speak, a group of people surrounded the choked grape, so Jiu'er looked around, and the only one standing by the bed was Concubine Jiang.

When Concubine Jiang heard her soft voice, the momentary touch was real.

When her grandson Qiye was born, she never cared about it, but when she fell in love with Emperor Jin Dynasty and gave birth to Huaiyan, she also cared for the child deeply.

Looking at Jiu'er at this moment, she felt pity and guilt for an instant, as if the emotions that had been suppressed for more than ten years were about to be vented, until Mo Feng rushed over and hugged Jiu'er.

"Concubine Jiang, the princess is still young and ignorant..."

"Then keep an eye on her." Concubine Jiang's complexion suddenly became cold, she turned her head to look at Putao who was crying, her palms tightened slightly, she turned and left.

When she left the palace, her mood was very complicated. She still remembered the ignorance and joy when she first entered the palace, the joy and sorrow after falling in love with the emperor, and the humiliation and sorrow when she was betrayed and killed by her loved one. Thousands of arrows pierced the heart.

All these feelings are intertwined, ups and downs, but the bitterness is greater than everything else.

So she is determined to pursue power, struggling in the vortex of power, she will not be able to become a master in this life, how can she be willing to suffer and suppress for so many years!
When she left the palace, she stopped slightly, turned her head to look, and seemed to be able to see the flying eaves of the Golden Luan Hall.

"The emperor has been reviewing memorials?"

"That's what the people below said." Lan Gu said softly.

"In the end, I just don't want to see my mother, like his father, a heartless person." She said indifferently, remembering the gentle touch of the palm of the hand just now, frowned slightly, and walked away directly.

After she left the palace, Lin Jinhua also took care of it.

After cleaning up everything in Putao's mouth, Lin Jinhua gave the nanny a serious scolding, and asked others to watch more, and then she went back to hug Putao, who was tired from crying, and coaxed her to sleep.

After coaxing the grapes, I realized that Jiu'er was lying in Mo Feng's arms aggrieved, his usual vivacity was gone, and his listless appearance was distressing.

"What's the matter?" The nurse wanted to go forward to hug Jiu'er, but Jiu'er immediately resisted.

Lin Jinhua paused slightly, remembering that just now everyone surrounded Putao and ignored her, and she still remembered hearing the cry of the child just now...

She said to the wet nurse: "Go and take care of the prince, don't allow such things to happen again, the princess Bengong will take care of her personally, and you will pick her up later."

"Yes." The wet nurse immediately responded with trepidation.

After she left, Lin Jinhua stepped forward, reached out to Jiu'er with a smile and said, "Jiu'er is good, mother will take you to play in the snow, okay?"

Jiu'er didn't know what it meant to play with the snow, but she understood the word 'play', and soon obediently stretched out her hands to Lin Jinhua.

Lin Jinhua smiled and took the solid girl into his arms, hugged the limp little fat man, and laughed and quarreled with her for a long time. When she fell asleep, she realized that Concubine Jiang was gone.

"Concubine Jiang left on her own." Mo Feng said after explaining what happened before.

"Jiu'er wants her to hug her?" Lin Jinyu looked down at her daughter who was already asleep on her chest, and smiled slightly: "You are quite attractive. It would be great if she could let go of her obsession because of you. "

"The maidservant looks at it...it's unlikely." Mo Feng said.Concubine Jiang looked at Jiu'er with complicated eyes. If she hadn't stepped forward to pick up Jiu'er in time, even Concubine Jiang herself might not know what she would do to Jiu'er.

Lin Jinhua sighed slightly, and waited for the nanny to arrive before handing over the wine to her.

As soon as she left, she said softly: "In the day after tomorrow, Concubine Jiang and Xianyue will definitely make some moves. Get ready, when the time comes... maybe they will be cruel to Xianyue." If she still doesn't cherish the present Don't blame her for being cruel if she has the chance to live a good life.For the sake of her family and children, even if she falls into the [-]th floor of hell, she will never look back!
Mo Feng responded, but he could guess that the next thing was bound to be a bloodbath.

That's fine, if it ends sooner, the empress can feel at ease earlier and live a better life with the emperor.

Thinking of this, she immediately went down to make arrangements.

After she left, Lin Jinhua was not idle, and soon went to see Wen Yuan who was caught.

In order to return to the Palace of Compassion, the old queen shook off this person, there must be some untapped value in him, for example, who did he obey the orders of the loyal and loyal man, and what did he want to do when he secretly took out the jade seal? , she has to ask clearly!
Wen Yuan was locked in a private dungeon somewhere in the palace at this time, but when Lin Jinhua came, he seemed to have been prepared a long time ago and was just waiting to speak.
