Chapter 192
Lin Jinyu once again fell into a dream of boundless darkness at night. In the dream, she was in a sea of blood, but standing in front of her was a person who was exactly like her, holding a sharp knife and full of hostility. In the dream, she could also feel the heart-piercing hatred and pain.
She knew that this person was also herself, but it was her deeply buried self.
But why, she has already lived again, and she has solved everything, but still can't get rid of this dream?
"No..." She murmured, trying to escape from the sea of blood, but was caught by the hostile self on the opposite side.
She couldn't struggle, and the more she struggled, the more painful she became, as if the blood of the sea of blood was about to drown her.
She thought of Zhao Huaiyan, thought of the child, she wanted to ask for help, but she couldn't make a sound...
"Hua'er, Hua'er!"
Zhao Huaiyan called softly.
Looking at Lin Jinhua who was sweating profusely, seeing her eyes tightly closed but unable to hide her pain, she kept trying to wake her up, but she seemed unable to hear her.
Lin Jinyu really can't hear it now, the self in the dream is entangled with her, holding her tightly and not letting her go, the resentment and hostility in her body are slowly spreading to her body, making her feel trembling all over, that is A kind of fear from the heart, as if it would never escape.
Jiu'er woke up suddenly in the middle of the night, and when she woke up, she cried and wanted to find her mother.
Nurse Cui, who was standing by the side, hurriedly got up, seeing that she was crying enough to start, she hurriedly sent someone to call the imperial physician, and said, "Princess, did you have a nightmare?"
"Mother, I want to see Mother..." Jiu'er cried loudly, got up and grabbed Nanny Cui's hand, stretched out her calves and wanted to jump off the bed.
Mother Cui was taken aback, thinking something was wrong, she hurriedly said: "Princess, don't worry, the empress is resting, it's too late now..."
"No, I want to see my mother..." Jiu'er cried loudly, and after a while, a nanny brought the prince over, also crying loudly and clamoring to see Lin Jinhua.
The maid on one side said: "Nurse, could it be that the prince and princess had nightmares at the same time?"
Nurse Cui was more cautious, along the way, so many strange things happened, she didn't dare to miss the abnormalities at all, upon hearing this, she just said: "Go and see if the empress has rested."
The palace lady responded immediately.
After she left, Nanny Cui comforted her again, but the maid came to report that Lin Jinhua seemed to be having a nightmare again.
"Mommy, the empress is still awake, if the princess and the prince are allowed to go there, will it disturb the empress?"
"The princess and the prince don't usually make trouble like this." Cui Mama thought about it, looked at the two crying children, and finally couldn't bear to say: "Go to the pass, and say that the prince and princess want to see the empress. .”
The maid hesitated again and again, but agreed.
After a while, she came back and said that Zhao Huaiyan had agreed, so Mammy Cui hurried away with her.
As soon as they arrived, Xiao Ling Xiaolong, who was waiting in the room, came out to welcome them, saw the crying child, and hurriedly said: "What's the matter?"
"I want to see my mother." Jiu'er was sobbing, and Putao also nodded: "My queen, I want to see my mother..."
"Your Majesty is still awake?"
Aunt Cui asked as quietly as possible.
Xiaoling nodded worriedly, looked inside, and said: "It seems to be a nightmare again, I don't know what I dreamed of, and I can't wake up. In the past, as long as the emperor is around, the empress can wake up. This time... ..."
"Your Majesty has her own destiny, so nothing will happen. Let's bring the princess and the prince inside first." Xiaolong interrupted her and said hastily.
"Yeah." Xiaoling didn't say any more, and hurriedly led people in together.
After arriving, Zhao Huaiyan sat on the side of the bed and saw the two children who were crying out of breath, their brows furrowed slightly, only to find that Lin Jinhua's hand that had been holding him so tightly suddenly loosened a bit.
"Ha'er..."
He hurriedly looked over, and sure enough, Lin Jinhua, who heard the cry of the child, seemed to have reacted, and was no longer just immersed in his own nightmare.
Seeing this, Zhao Huaiyan hurriedly asked someone to bring the child over. As soon as Jiu'er came, she rushed to Lin Jinhua's bed and gently pushed her: "Mother, Jiu'er is afraid, Jiu'er wants to hug..."
Putao also stepped forward, sobbing, and kept wiping her tears with her small hands, but she didn't push her up, she just looked at Zhao Huaiyan with teary eyes: "Father, what's wrong with the mother?"
"She's too tired today." Zhao Huaiyan couldn't coax the child, so she could only comfort her in this way.
"Then will the queen be able to wake up if she sleeps a little longer?" Putao asked again.
Looking at the fear in his eyes, Zhao Huaiyan suddenly remembered her former self.Back then, he thought that after his mother's concubine passed away, he also looked at his mother's empty palace and asked his father whether his mother's concubine could come back.He still seems to be able to recall the helplessness and panic at that time.
He subconsciously stretched out his hand and rubbed Putao's little head, and said, "I will wake up. Because Putao and Jiu'er are waiting for her, she is just tired and needs to sleep for a while..."
"Okay, Putao won't cry, don't quarrel with mother and rest." Putao tightly pursed her lips to prevent herself from crying, but the tears couldn't be stopped.
Finally, Lin Jinhua heard the cry of the child, and in her dream, she firmly shook off the hand that was holding her back.
She looked indifferently and with a bit of pity at the hostile person who was like herself, and said indifferently: "I will not just be immersed in hatred forever, I still have my husband and children whom I love, and they love me too ..."
"Do I really love you? Do I just need you, just rely on you habitually..."
The man also spoke, with the same voice as Lin Jinhua.
If Lin Jinhua had a little doubt about Zhao Huaiyan's love, she might not be able to get out here now, but she didn't, she believed in her lover.
She smiled, and only said softly: "He loves me as much as I love him." She believed that Huaiyan and herself were two wounded people redeeming each other, but she also knew that healed them. Yes, it is love that never fades.
Only love can keep her from becoming the hostile and murderous self in front of her.
She jerked away from the opponent's hand, and at this moment, she finally opened her eyes.
"Mother..." Seeing her wake up, Jiu'er hugged her neck and cried louder.
Tears slowly fell from the corners of Lin Jinhua's eyes. She looked at the child lying beside her crying until she was trembling all over, the husband standing by her side full of worries, and the forbearing and sensible son. All of this was true. belongs to her.
Zhao Huaiyan hid the bloodshot eyes, only smiled and looked at Putao: "Come here."
Only then did Putao come forward, looked at Lin Jinhua, choked up and said, "Mother, did we make you rest because of our noise?"
"Mother, you are the ones who saved the mother." Lin Jinhua stretched out his hand, and Zhao Huaiyan carried Putao to the side of the bed, and then he threw himself into her arms like Putao and began to cry softly.
Lin Jinhua hugged the two children, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, looking at Zhao Huaiyan who was sitting by the bed, she silently said I love you.
Zhao Huaiyan understands her heart, watching her say I love you, warm currents flow through her heart.
As long as the child and she are there, then the hardships in the first half of his life are not considered hardships.
At night, Lin Jinhua was talking to the child who refused to sleep, and Zhao Huaiyan came out alone.
The wind in the autumn night is already cool, and the cold wind blows, and the eyes are slightly astringent, and they become a little moist.
No one could see the wetness in his eyes. He walked alone in the palace, and he could even remember that after his mother and concubine left, he was adopted by the queen, and he was bullied by the palace people and had to spend the night in the palace wall. In the corner weeping secretly.
The moonlight was like a shadow, he walked forward slowly, and before he knew it, he had arrived at the gate of Chunxi Hall.
The Chunxi Hall has been abandoned for a long time, and no one has lived here since the concubine Yin disappeared.
"emperor."
The mother guarding the palace gate brought the lantern, Zhao Huaiyan glanced at it, and finally stepped in, seeing that the sweet-scented osmanthus tree in the yard was still alive, but a lot of leaves had fallen on the ground, so she couldn't help walking slowly past.
In late autumn, there were still osmanthus flowers not withered on this osmanthus tree. He broke off a branch, looked at it, and became indifferent: "Send this osmanthus flower to the Queen Mother."
"Yes." The nanny quickly agreed and left, leaving Zhao Huaiyan alone, staring blankly at the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, at the moon, at the empty Chunxi Palace, just like him when he was young, only now He no longer has fear, he has a confidant with a heart, and a lovely child. He is no longer alone, and he has to face this ruthless and cruel world.
When the sweet-scented osmanthus branches were sent to the Palace of Compassion, the Empress Dowager Jiang had not yet fallen asleep.
In the past few days, she has contracted a cold, but she doesn't take much medicine, and she doesn't have much appetite. She has lost weight and lost her previous glory.
In this Palace of Compassion and Ning, there is no one else except a boring maid, and she has no books to read. She sits on the porch every day watching the sunrise and sunset, killing the time day by day. , but people are no longer what they used to be.
When the sweet-scented osmanthus branch was delivered, she only glanced at it, and then asked with a smile: "It's really strange that there are still sweet-scented osmanthus flowers now. Could it be a natural phenomenon that will kill me, Daqi?"
The nanny who came to deliver the things hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "Empress Dowager, the emperor picked this up in the Chunxi Hall and asked his servants to bring it to you. Although it is late autumn, the Chunxi Hall has a good orientation. There is also a lot of sunshine, so it is possible that the sweet-scented osmanthus has not all withered by this season."
"Chunxi Palace..." Empress Dowager Jiang's hand trembled slightly. Does he still remember the sweet-scented osmanthus tree in Chunxi Palace?It was planted by them together when he was young. She thought that when he grows up and goes out of the palace to marry a wife, she can look at the sweet-scented osmanthus tree and miss him every day...
The past rushed to her heart in an instant, and accompanied by sourness went straight to the bottom of her heart, and she also burst into tears.
She looked down at the sweet-scented osmanthus that was carefully wrapped in a handkerchief. The night wind blew, and there seemed to be a faint fragrance.
Seeing this, the nanny at the bottom immediately retreated silently, leaving Concubine Jiang sitting on the porch alone, holding the sweet-scented osmanthus flower tightly and crying uncontrollably.
"It's just that I was at a loss at that time..." She finally wiped away her tears, and then slowly got up, but her body staggered and almost fell down.
She looked up at the moon in the sky, and asked with a self-deprecating smile: "Could it be that God is playing a joke on me? After ten years of life and death, in the end, it's all my fault?"
The night wind blew the branches and made a slight sound, as if responding to her.
She smiled, white hair scattered from her frosty temples, moving with the wind, counting the desolation of her life.
She seemed to be able to imagine what it was like when the old lady died. She heard that Lin Jinhua and Huaiyan had forgiven her, so she finally died with peace of mind?
"Your Majesty, it's late at night. Get some rest earlier." The only maid who served her came out of the room, took a cloak to cover her, and said softly.
"Xian'er, has something happened in the palace recently?" She asked suddenly.
Xi'er glanced at her nervously, thinking she was going to do something to hurt the Empress Dowager again, and said vigilantly: "Empress Dowager, there is nothing special in the palace, don't worry, live well, if there is anything wrong , and it will not implicate you."
Empress Dowager Jiang heard her precaution, smiled slightly, and finally put away the sweet-scented osmanthus branch carefully, turned around and went inside.
Under the night, the capital had gradually calmed down. With the deaths of Xin Yi and Changsun Xuanyin, it seemed that all the plots against Lin Jinhua had disappeared.
But there is no time for power struggles to stop. After all, there are always fish that slip through the net when the waves wash the sand.
Lang Yueyan, who hadn't shown her face for a long time, only got the news that both grandson Xuanyin and Xin Yi were dead, and laughed loudly: "These fools died on the word love. If you want me to say, what love and love are all Those idiots are just dreaming. There are good women and good men in the world. When they are powerful, they can have as many as they want. Lin Jinhua is indeed rare, but so what? After all, they are just mortal bodies!"
"My lord is right..."
"My lord?" He snorted coldly, showing a bit of treachery and meanness on his cheekbones that were protruding due to the wind and frost: "We are going to rebel against Qi and restore Xinjiang. Needless to say, that traitor Lang Yuehan is still loyal now." Besides me, who else wants to help the southern border?"
As soon as the people below heard it, they immediately knelt down and shouted long live.
Lang Yueyan sneered, then drew out his own sword, cut his palm with a knife, and swore to the sky with the blood in his hand: "In this life, I, Lang Yueyan, will definitely live up to everyone's expectations and help southern Xinjiang!"
"Helping the Southern Border, Helping the Southern Border!"
At night, no one listened to the voices in the empty courtyard, but there were horses galloping into Beijing on the official road.
The Xu family, who had already slept peacefully, suddenly heard a knock on the door at night. The concierge of the Xu family rubbed his sleepy eyes and asked impatiently, "Who is it this late at night?"
"Open the door quickly, something happened to the Mongolian princess who entered Beijing!" The people outside said urgently.
When the concierge heard that it was okay, he hurriedly opened the door and said to the people: "You wait first, and I will report back to the master." After finishing speaking, he turned his head and hurried away.
Both Xu Chengqing and Baozhu got up, Xu Boshan didn't disturb Mrs. Xu, but came out alone, and when he saw the man, he hurriedly asked, "What happened?"
"The carriage of the Mongolian princess encountered a group of robbers on the way, and they were all kidnapped." The visitor hurriedly said.
"How could this be..." Xu Chengqing frowned, Baozhu was already on his way to prepare the horse, but Xu Chengqing stopped him: "Report this matter to the imperial court in advance, I will lead the troops out of the city, you stay at home."
"No!" Baozhu grabbed him and let him go out alone, how could she feel at ease: "You know me, if you only want to marry a woman who is obedient and filial to her parents-in-law at home, I'm sorry, you should marry a few more Concubine."
"You..." Xu Chengqing saw that she had misinterpreted her meaning, and saw that her eyes were reddish, and her fists were clenched tightly, knowing that she was worried, so she said: "Forget it, you go and change your clothes, and I will report back." Your Majesty, immediately lead the troops out of the city with you."
Only then did Baozhu laugh, but she looked at Xu Boshan timidly.
Xu Boshan is a sensible person, and he has long been used to the way his sons and daughters handle things. Hearing this, he just said: "Forget it, you guys go and come back quickly, Cheng Qing, so you can protect the orb."
"Yes!" Xu Chengqing responded, and Baozhu hurriedly saluted and thanked her gratefully, and then went to prepare.
Seeing them leave, Xu Boshan felt a little suspense in his heart. Looking at the night and the sky, he always felt that the situation was changing, and he was afraid that there would still be troubles for a while.However, Daqi was first established, and if it wants to continue to grow, these are unavoidable.
He breathed out lightly, seeing that it was almost five o'clock, and he didn't go back to sleep, he went directly to get the official clothes and put them on, ready to go to court.
The story of the abduction of the Mongolian princess quickly spread among the ruling and opposition parties.
In the court, the ministers were fighting with each other. Some said that Beiyan had sent assassins, while others said that there were spies in the court. It was nothing more than factional disputes.
Zhao Huaiyan was sitting at the top, listening to the debates below, and looking at the information he had received. It was not until the debates below finally stopped that he raised his head and glanced at the newly promoted general Zuo Hang.
"General Left."
"The minister is here." Zuo Hang used to be the old unit under Lin Luzhi's hands. He fought in the South and the North for so many years. He is ten years younger than Lin Luzhi, but he has made great military achievements.However, this person has always been rampant, although he has never done anything corrupt or illegal, but because he is usually arrogant, rude, and brutal, he has a very bad reputation and is not liked by others.
Zhao Huaiyan read the eyeliner newspaper, and then said: "The search for the Mongolian princess..." He paused, looked at the minister standing behind Zuo Hang on the right, and said: "Let the full power be at the disposal of Mr. Jin, and you will assist from the side and It's up to you to report back to me."
As soon as these words came out, Zuo Hang and Mr. Jin were both startled, and looked up at him in bewilderment.
Zuo Hang said directly: "Your Majesty, although Sir Zuo is a newly promoted third-class general, but I think he is just an idiot and useless, I can handle this matter myself."
That Lord Jin's complexion was slightly pale, he came out after gritting his molar teeth, he just lowered his head and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, Lord Zuo is older than the minister after all, the matter of the Mongol princess being robbed is of great importance, I dare not underestimate myself, It is better to ask Mr. Zuo to be the master, and the minister will assist you..."
"I believe in you." Zhao Huaiyan said directly.
Mr. Jin's complexion was slightly gloomy, but he didn't dare to show anything wrong when facing Zhao Huaiyan.
Zuo Hang was really puzzled, and he really looked down on Mr. Jin, but seeing how determined Zhao Huaiyan was, it was hard to say anything.
Soon after retreating from the court, both Xu Boshan and Lin Jincheng stayed, and only then asked the reason, Zhao Huaiyan only gave them the secret letter he had obtained.
After Lin Jincheng finished reading, he couldn't help frowning: "It is said that Mr. Zuo colluded with others, intending to usurp the throne..."
"Master Zuo is an upright person, and he can't hide his temper in his heart. If he wanted to seek the court and usurp the throne, it would have been written on his face." Xu Boshan said.
"Then why did the people behind him wrongly frame him?" Zhao Huaiyan asked again.
Xu Boshan and Lin Jincheng looked at each other, thought for a while, and said, "Could it be because of the military power in Master Zuo's hands."
"Ah."
Zhao Huaiyan gave the answer directly.
Only then did Xu Boshan and Lin Jincheng figure out why he only let Lord Zuo assist him. If something happened to the Mongolian princess, he would not be implicated. Instead, it was the third-rank general, Lord Jin. If something happened to Lord Zuo, he would be the first to benefit It's him.
After Lin Jincheng listened here for a while, he knew that Zhao Huaiyan was already prepared, so he didn't worry too much, so he asked the order to come out to see Lin Jinhua.
At that time, she was teaching her two children to read poems, surrounded by the maids, chatting and laughing, very comfortable.
"Uncle!" Seeing Lin Jincheng, Jiu'er trotted over and was hugged in his arms.
Lin Jincheng smiled lightly, and took out the mahogany sword he had specially brought in this time. It was a small one, with two different colored necklaces hanging on it. It was very beautiful.
Putao also came up, seeing the mahogany sword, he was even more happy, and after getting it, he asked Lin Jinhua: "Mother, can we play with this?"
Lin Jinhua naturally agreed, the world is dangerous, so it is best for them to preserve the ability to protect themselves.
Soon Mo Xue took the two children to the side to make gestures, and Lin Jinhua got up and smiled at Lin Jincheng: "The weather is fine today, let's go."
"En." Lin Jincheng saw that her complexion was getting worse again, so he just followed her side with distress, and walked slowly to the nearby lake.
"I heard you didn't feel well last night?"
"It's not a big deal. You don't tell me anything recently, so I don't have to worry about it. It's just that I have nightmares occasionally." She remembered the tiger charm with strange patterns and said with a smile: "Where is the girl named Zhenxi?" ?”
Lin Jincheng mentioned Lin Zhenxi, but he laughed: "She wants to see you very much, but it seems that by accident, she became the concubine of King Mu, and now the two are together, making small fights all day long, I'm afraid I forgot this thing."
Lin Jinhua's smile grew wider when she heard this: "If that's the case, it would be great. Let them alone, let her come into the palace when she is free."
Lin Jincheng also smiled slightly, and accompanied her as he walked slowly by the lake, talking, the days were so leisurely, it seemed not bad.
It wasn't until Lin Jincheng left the palace that Lin Jinhua mentioned Wang Ruyan: "Did you find Yan'er?"
"I found it, but..." Lin Jincheng thought of her, and smiled slightly: "She's been doing well recently, she doesn't seem to need me, and I don't want to make her sad again."
"Brother still doesn't understand women's thoughts, especially Yan'er." If she could really let go of her brother, she wouldn't be so angry that she would get sick in the first place, and even say things like He Li, it was all just out of anger, if it was true Give up, with her temperament, I'm afraid she won't stay in this world at all, why bother to hide out alone.
Lin Jincheng didn't understand, he just looked at her puzzled: "Don't understand what?"
Lin Jinhua smiled, tightened the cloak on her body, and said to him: "Since Yan'er wants you to understand, brother, then go back and think about it. Now that I am in the harem, don't worry about it for the time being. There is Huaiyan in the hall, so you don't have to worry too much, first think about how to bring Yan'er back to be serious."
Lin Jincheng looked at her with a deep smile, and suddenly there was a sliver of hope in his heart, and the gleam of the youthful radiance reappeared on his face: "Can I really get it back?"
Lin Jinhua smiled and rolled her eyes, and said, "Brother, this face is full of scum, if you don't clean it up, don't talk about Yan'er, I don't even want to recognize you."
"I... this..." Lin Jincheng, who had always been calm, became a little flustered at this moment, and hurriedly raised his hand to touch his face and chin, causing Xiao Lingxiaolong, who was following behind, to cover his lips and laugh. Then he hurriedly smiled and said, "Then I'll go back first."
"Yeah." Lin Jinhua smiled, and was finally relieved to see him leaving quickly and happily.
Just as she was about to turn around, a limp body hugged her legs. When she looked down, she saw Jiuer pursing her lips and looking at her aggrievedly: "Mother, Xiao Xun doesn't play swords with me... "
Lin Jinhua blinked, and when she looked up, she found that Su Jingxun was looking at this place in a daze, and his book had also fallen on the ground, and the grapes were bending over to pick it up.
Seeing this, Lin Jinhua suddenly understood that she was usually too spoiled with wine. This child is always attractive, with a small mouth that is naturally sweet, and the people in the palace are hindered by her status as a princess, so she basically responds to requests.
She suddenly looked at Jiu'er seriously, and said: "You tell mother first, why doesn't Jingxun play with you?"
Jiu'er didn't understand why she asked, but said honestly: "He said he didn't like books, but he liked books, but Jiu'er doesn't like books..."
Lin Jinhua looked at her, and when it came to this matter, she didn't have a strong intention to blame, but she simply didn't understand why Su Jingxun rejected her.
Seeing her innocent appearance, Lin Jinhua finally relaxed her serious face, picked her up, and said with a smile: "If my mother told you to put down your favorite sword now and go to school, would you be willing? "
Jiu'er pursed her lips, thought for a while, and shook her head.
"Is it reasonable for you to ask Jing Xun to give up the books he likes to read and play mahogany swords with you?" Lin Jinhua asked her patiently.
Jiu'er thought for a while, then nodded, but looked at her confusedly and said, "But Sister Cai Qiao said, I am a princess, everyone has to listen to me, and whatever I say is what..."
As soon as she said this, the maid who followed her quickly turned pale and lowered her head.
Lin Jinhua glanced at her indifferently, then turned to look at Jiu'er and smiled, "Then Jiu'er thinks mother's words are right, or Cai Qiao's words are right?"
"Of course it's mother." Smiling, Jiu'er kissed Lin Jinhua's face, revealing her sweet dimples, which made everyone's heart soften.
Lin Jinhua also thinks that her daughter is the cutest in the world, but she can't make mistakes in principle, she doesn't want to teach an arrogant and unreasonable princess.
She just smiled and said: "Since that's the case, then I will listen to my mother from now on, okay?"
"Okay." Jiu'er nodded with a smile. Seeing this, Lin Jinhua didn't say any more and just put her down.
But Jiu'er was born to be likable, and Lin Jinhua caught the sign in time so that no one would lead her away.
She ran to Su Jingxun with a grin, raised her face and said with a smile, "Xiao Xun, if my mother says you don't want to, I can't force you."
Su Jingxun's natural temperament is cooler, and he didn't care about her as a kid at first. Hearing this, he also knew that the empress would not blame him for this, and thus implicate the Dingbeihou Mansion, so he was relieved.
As soon as he turned around to leave, he felt his hand go soft, and looking down again, Jiu'er's chubby little hand was firmly grasping his somewhat cold hand, and said with a smile, "I'll follow you. When you don't want to study anymore, I will accompany you." I play with wooden swords."
Su Jingxun finally showed a slight smile, held her hand back, saluted slightly in Lin Jinhua's direction, and led her to a nearby pavilion.
After they left, the smile on Lin Jinhua's face gradually faded, looking at the court lady Cai Qiao beside her, she asked, "How old are you this year?"
"My maidservant is twenty this year." Cai Qiao finished speaking with a little guilty conscience, and found that Lin Jinhua's face was a little cold, so she quickly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, this maidservant didn't mean to tell the princess these things, it's just that occasionally some palace people don't like you Long eyes, that's why the servant taught the princess to protect herself..."
"The princess is only less than two years old, did you teach her to bully others?" Lin Jinhua was a little annoyed, no matter what the motive of this court lady was, it was definitely not for the sake of wine, if someone bullied her, she could tell herself.There are no other concubines in this harem, so where are there so many scruples and taboos?Most likely because she saw that she was sick and Madam Cui couldn't take care of her, she wanted to take advantage of the situation to hold Jiu'er, and wait for Jiu'er to get stronger, so she could use Jiu'er's power to bully others.
Thinking of this, her complexion became even more serious. Cai Qiao saw that she had been exposed, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, this servant is also for the sake of the princess..."
Lin Jinhua didn't bother arguing with her, but felt that such a person could never stay by Jiu'er's side to serve her, so she said: "Forget it, I think you didn't cause a catastrophe, so I can forgive you, you are not young now Let me let you go out of the palace." After finishing speaking, she glanced at Xiaoling who was on the side, Xiaoling understood, and directly led her out.
After they were taken away, Lin Jinhua raised her eyes to look at the backs of the two children, and raised her hand to caress her belly. There is still a baby here, and she doesn't know what kind of temperament it will be in the future...
As the cold wind blew, she coughed a few times before she tightened her cloak again.
"Your Majesty, I heard that the Mongolian Princess has been found..." Mo Feng came over and handed her the hand-warming stove, looked at her slightly pale complexion, and said softly.
"Well, you don't need to tell the emperor that I know about it." Lin Jinhua smiled lightly, he was worried that he would think too much, but if he didn't know, he felt uneasy.
Mo Feng responded with a smile.
Outside the palace, Xu Chengqing and Baozhu have quickly locked the location of the robbers. No one in the capital dares to blatantly obstruct them. Basically, Zhao Huaiyan is the one who is able to deal with them, so the rescue has become very easy.
It was only after he was rescued that Xu Chengqing wondered. The letter said that there was only one Mongolian princess visiting, so why did he bring another beautiful princess?
When Baozhu saw the princess, for some reason, her complexion became a little dignified.
(End of this chapter)
Lin Jinyu once again fell into a dream of boundless darkness at night. In the dream, she was in a sea of blood, but standing in front of her was a person who was exactly like her, holding a sharp knife and full of hostility. In the dream, she could also feel the heart-piercing hatred and pain.
She knew that this person was also herself, but it was her deeply buried self.
But why, she has already lived again, and she has solved everything, but still can't get rid of this dream?
"No..." She murmured, trying to escape from the sea of blood, but was caught by the hostile self on the opposite side.
She couldn't struggle, and the more she struggled, the more painful she became, as if the blood of the sea of blood was about to drown her.
She thought of Zhao Huaiyan, thought of the child, she wanted to ask for help, but she couldn't make a sound...
"Hua'er, Hua'er!"
Zhao Huaiyan called softly.
Looking at Lin Jinhua who was sweating profusely, seeing her eyes tightly closed but unable to hide her pain, she kept trying to wake her up, but she seemed unable to hear her.
Lin Jinyu really can't hear it now, the self in the dream is entangled with her, holding her tightly and not letting her go, the resentment and hostility in her body are slowly spreading to her body, making her feel trembling all over, that is A kind of fear from the heart, as if it would never escape.
Jiu'er woke up suddenly in the middle of the night, and when she woke up, she cried and wanted to find her mother.
Nurse Cui, who was standing by the side, hurriedly got up, seeing that she was crying enough to start, she hurriedly sent someone to call the imperial physician, and said, "Princess, did you have a nightmare?"
"Mother, I want to see Mother..." Jiu'er cried loudly, got up and grabbed Nanny Cui's hand, stretched out her calves and wanted to jump off the bed.
Mother Cui was taken aback, thinking something was wrong, she hurriedly said: "Princess, don't worry, the empress is resting, it's too late now..."
"No, I want to see my mother..." Jiu'er cried loudly, and after a while, a nanny brought the prince over, also crying loudly and clamoring to see Lin Jinhua.
The maid on one side said: "Nurse, could it be that the prince and princess had nightmares at the same time?"
Nurse Cui was more cautious, along the way, so many strange things happened, she didn't dare to miss the abnormalities at all, upon hearing this, she just said: "Go and see if the empress has rested."
The palace lady responded immediately.
After she left, Nanny Cui comforted her again, but the maid came to report that Lin Jinhua seemed to be having a nightmare again.
"Mommy, the empress is still awake, if the princess and the prince are allowed to go there, will it disturb the empress?"
"The princess and the prince don't usually make trouble like this." Cui Mama thought about it, looked at the two crying children, and finally couldn't bear to say: "Go to the pass, and say that the prince and princess want to see the empress. .”
The maid hesitated again and again, but agreed.
After a while, she came back and said that Zhao Huaiyan had agreed, so Mammy Cui hurried away with her.
As soon as they arrived, Xiao Ling Xiaolong, who was waiting in the room, came out to welcome them, saw the crying child, and hurriedly said: "What's the matter?"
"I want to see my mother." Jiu'er was sobbing, and Putao also nodded: "My queen, I want to see my mother..."
"Your Majesty is still awake?"
Aunt Cui asked as quietly as possible.
Xiaoling nodded worriedly, looked inside, and said: "It seems to be a nightmare again, I don't know what I dreamed of, and I can't wake up. In the past, as long as the emperor is around, the empress can wake up. This time... ..."
"Your Majesty has her own destiny, so nothing will happen. Let's bring the princess and the prince inside first." Xiaolong interrupted her and said hastily.
"Yeah." Xiaoling didn't say any more, and hurriedly led people in together.
After arriving, Zhao Huaiyan sat on the side of the bed and saw the two children who were crying out of breath, their brows furrowed slightly, only to find that Lin Jinhua's hand that had been holding him so tightly suddenly loosened a bit.
"Ha'er..."
He hurriedly looked over, and sure enough, Lin Jinhua, who heard the cry of the child, seemed to have reacted, and was no longer just immersed in his own nightmare.
Seeing this, Zhao Huaiyan hurriedly asked someone to bring the child over. As soon as Jiu'er came, she rushed to Lin Jinhua's bed and gently pushed her: "Mother, Jiu'er is afraid, Jiu'er wants to hug..."
Putao also stepped forward, sobbing, and kept wiping her tears with her small hands, but she didn't push her up, she just looked at Zhao Huaiyan with teary eyes: "Father, what's wrong with the mother?"
"She's too tired today." Zhao Huaiyan couldn't coax the child, so she could only comfort her in this way.
"Then will the queen be able to wake up if she sleeps a little longer?" Putao asked again.
Looking at the fear in his eyes, Zhao Huaiyan suddenly remembered her former self.Back then, he thought that after his mother's concubine passed away, he also looked at his mother's empty palace and asked his father whether his mother's concubine could come back.He still seems to be able to recall the helplessness and panic at that time.
He subconsciously stretched out his hand and rubbed Putao's little head, and said, "I will wake up. Because Putao and Jiu'er are waiting for her, she is just tired and needs to sleep for a while..."
"Okay, Putao won't cry, don't quarrel with mother and rest." Putao tightly pursed her lips to prevent herself from crying, but the tears couldn't be stopped.
Finally, Lin Jinhua heard the cry of the child, and in her dream, she firmly shook off the hand that was holding her back.
She looked indifferently and with a bit of pity at the hostile person who was like herself, and said indifferently: "I will not just be immersed in hatred forever, I still have my husband and children whom I love, and they love me too ..."
"Do I really love you? Do I just need you, just rely on you habitually..."
The man also spoke, with the same voice as Lin Jinhua.
If Lin Jinhua had a little doubt about Zhao Huaiyan's love, she might not be able to get out here now, but she didn't, she believed in her lover.
She smiled, and only said softly: "He loves me as much as I love him." She believed that Huaiyan and herself were two wounded people redeeming each other, but she also knew that healed them. Yes, it is love that never fades.
Only love can keep her from becoming the hostile and murderous self in front of her.
She jerked away from the opponent's hand, and at this moment, she finally opened her eyes.
"Mother..." Seeing her wake up, Jiu'er hugged her neck and cried louder.
Tears slowly fell from the corners of Lin Jinhua's eyes. She looked at the child lying beside her crying until she was trembling all over, the husband standing by her side full of worries, and the forbearing and sensible son. All of this was true. belongs to her.
Zhao Huaiyan hid the bloodshot eyes, only smiled and looked at Putao: "Come here."
Only then did Putao come forward, looked at Lin Jinhua, choked up and said, "Mother, did we make you rest because of our noise?"
"Mother, you are the ones who saved the mother." Lin Jinhua stretched out his hand, and Zhao Huaiyan carried Putao to the side of the bed, and then he threw himself into her arms like Putao and began to cry softly.
Lin Jinhua hugged the two children, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, looking at Zhao Huaiyan who was sitting by the bed, she silently said I love you.
Zhao Huaiyan understands her heart, watching her say I love you, warm currents flow through her heart.
As long as the child and she are there, then the hardships in the first half of his life are not considered hardships.
At night, Lin Jinhua was talking to the child who refused to sleep, and Zhao Huaiyan came out alone.
The wind in the autumn night is already cool, and the cold wind blows, and the eyes are slightly astringent, and they become a little moist.
No one could see the wetness in his eyes. He walked alone in the palace, and he could even remember that after his mother and concubine left, he was adopted by the queen, and he was bullied by the palace people and had to spend the night in the palace wall. In the corner weeping secretly.
The moonlight was like a shadow, he walked forward slowly, and before he knew it, he had arrived at the gate of Chunxi Hall.
The Chunxi Hall has been abandoned for a long time, and no one has lived here since the concubine Yin disappeared.
"emperor."
The mother guarding the palace gate brought the lantern, Zhao Huaiyan glanced at it, and finally stepped in, seeing that the sweet-scented osmanthus tree in the yard was still alive, but a lot of leaves had fallen on the ground, so she couldn't help walking slowly past.
In late autumn, there were still osmanthus flowers not withered on this osmanthus tree. He broke off a branch, looked at it, and became indifferent: "Send this osmanthus flower to the Queen Mother."
"Yes." The nanny quickly agreed and left, leaving Zhao Huaiyan alone, staring blankly at the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, at the moon, at the empty Chunxi Palace, just like him when he was young, only now He no longer has fear, he has a confidant with a heart, and a lovely child. He is no longer alone, and he has to face this ruthless and cruel world.
When the sweet-scented osmanthus branches were sent to the Palace of Compassion, the Empress Dowager Jiang had not yet fallen asleep.
In the past few days, she has contracted a cold, but she doesn't take much medicine, and she doesn't have much appetite. She has lost weight and lost her previous glory.
In this Palace of Compassion and Ning, there is no one else except a boring maid, and she has no books to read. She sits on the porch every day watching the sunrise and sunset, killing the time day by day. , but people are no longer what they used to be.
When the sweet-scented osmanthus branch was delivered, she only glanced at it, and then asked with a smile: "It's really strange that there are still sweet-scented osmanthus flowers now. Could it be a natural phenomenon that will kill me, Daqi?"
The nanny who came to deliver the things hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "Empress Dowager, the emperor picked this up in the Chunxi Hall and asked his servants to bring it to you. Although it is late autumn, the Chunxi Hall has a good orientation. There is also a lot of sunshine, so it is possible that the sweet-scented osmanthus has not all withered by this season."
"Chunxi Palace..." Empress Dowager Jiang's hand trembled slightly. Does he still remember the sweet-scented osmanthus tree in Chunxi Palace?It was planted by them together when he was young. She thought that when he grows up and goes out of the palace to marry a wife, she can look at the sweet-scented osmanthus tree and miss him every day...
The past rushed to her heart in an instant, and accompanied by sourness went straight to the bottom of her heart, and she also burst into tears.
She looked down at the sweet-scented osmanthus that was carefully wrapped in a handkerchief. The night wind blew, and there seemed to be a faint fragrance.
Seeing this, the nanny at the bottom immediately retreated silently, leaving Concubine Jiang sitting on the porch alone, holding the sweet-scented osmanthus flower tightly and crying uncontrollably.
"It's just that I was at a loss at that time..." She finally wiped away her tears, and then slowly got up, but her body staggered and almost fell down.
She looked up at the moon in the sky, and asked with a self-deprecating smile: "Could it be that God is playing a joke on me? After ten years of life and death, in the end, it's all my fault?"
The night wind blew the branches and made a slight sound, as if responding to her.
She smiled, white hair scattered from her frosty temples, moving with the wind, counting the desolation of her life.
She seemed to be able to imagine what it was like when the old lady died. She heard that Lin Jinhua and Huaiyan had forgiven her, so she finally died with peace of mind?
"Your Majesty, it's late at night. Get some rest earlier." The only maid who served her came out of the room, took a cloak to cover her, and said softly.
"Xian'er, has something happened in the palace recently?" She asked suddenly.
Xi'er glanced at her nervously, thinking she was going to do something to hurt the Empress Dowager again, and said vigilantly: "Empress Dowager, there is nothing special in the palace, don't worry, live well, if there is anything wrong , and it will not implicate you."
Empress Dowager Jiang heard her precaution, smiled slightly, and finally put away the sweet-scented osmanthus branch carefully, turned around and went inside.
Under the night, the capital had gradually calmed down. With the deaths of Xin Yi and Changsun Xuanyin, it seemed that all the plots against Lin Jinhua had disappeared.
But there is no time for power struggles to stop. After all, there are always fish that slip through the net when the waves wash the sand.
Lang Yueyan, who hadn't shown her face for a long time, only got the news that both grandson Xuanyin and Xin Yi were dead, and laughed loudly: "These fools died on the word love. If you want me to say, what love and love are all Those idiots are just dreaming. There are good women and good men in the world. When they are powerful, they can have as many as they want. Lin Jinhua is indeed rare, but so what? After all, they are just mortal bodies!"
"My lord is right..."
"My lord?" He snorted coldly, showing a bit of treachery and meanness on his cheekbones that were protruding due to the wind and frost: "We are going to rebel against Qi and restore Xinjiang. Needless to say, that traitor Lang Yuehan is still loyal now." Besides me, who else wants to help the southern border?"
As soon as the people below heard it, they immediately knelt down and shouted long live.
Lang Yueyan sneered, then drew out his own sword, cut his palm with a knife, and swore to the sky with the blood in his hand: "In this life, I, Lang Yueyan, will definitely live up to everyone's expectations and help southern Xinjiang!"
"Helping the Southern Border, Helping the Southern Border!"
At night, no one listened to the voices in the empty courtyard, but there were horses galloping into Beijing on the official road.
The Xu family, who had already slept peacefully, suddenly heard a knock on the door at night. The concierge of the Xu family rubbed his sleepy eyes and asked impatiently, "Who is it this late at night?"
"Open the door quickly, something happened to the Mongolian princess who entered Beijing!" The people outside said urgently.
When the concierge heard that it was okay, he hurriedly opened the door and said to the people: "You wait first, and I will report back to the master." After finishing speaking, he turned his head and hurried away.
Both Xu Chengqing and Baozhu got up, Xu Boshan didn't disturb Mrs. Xu, but came out alone, and when he saw the man, he hurriedly asked, "What happened?"
"The carriage of the Mongolian princess encountered a group of robbers on the way, and they were all kidnapped." The visitor hurriedly said.
"How could this be..." Xu Chengqing frowned, Baozhu was already on his way to prepare the horse, but Xu Chengqing stopped him: "Report this matter to the imperial court in advance, I will lead the troops out of the city, you stay at home."
"No!" Baozhu grabbed him and let him go out alone, how could she feel at ease: "You know me, if you only want to marry a woman who is obedient and filial to her parents-in-law at home, I'm sorry, you should marry a few more Concubine."
"You..." Xu Chengqing saw that she had misinterpreted her meaning, and saw that her eyes were reddish, and her fists were clenched tightly, knowing that she was worried, so she said: "Forget it, you go and change your clothes, and I will report back." Your Majesty, immediately lead the troops out of the city with you."
Only then did Baozhu laugh, but she looked at Xu Boshan timidly.
Xu Boshan is a sensible person, and he has long been used to the way his sons and daughters handle things. Hearing this, he just said: "Forget it, you guys go and come back quickly, Cheng Qing, so you can protect the orb."
"Yes!" Xu Chengqing responded, and Baozhu hurriedly saluted and thanked her gratefully, and then went to prepare.
Seeing them leave, Xu Boshan felt a little suspense in his heart. Looking at the night and the sky, he always felt that the situation was changing, and he was afraid that there would still be troubles for a while.However, Daqi was first established, and if it wants to continue to grow, these are unavoidable.
He breathed out lightly, seeing that it was almost five o'clock, and he didn't go back to sleep, he went directly to get the official clothes and put them on, ready to go to court.
The story of the abduction of the Mongolian princess quickly spread among the ruling and opposition parties.
In the court, the ministers were fighting with each other. Some said that Beiyan had sent assassins, while others said that there were spies in the court. It was nothing more than factional disputes.
Zhao Huaiyan was sitting at the top, listening to the debates below, and looking at the information he had received. It was not until the debates below finally stopped that he raised his head and glanced at the newly promoted general Zuo Hang.
"General Left."
"The minister is here." Zuo Hang used to be the old unit under Lin Luzhi's hands. He fought in the South and the North for so many years. He is ten years younger than Lin Luzhi, but he has made great military achievements.However, this person has always been rampant, although he has never done anything corrupt or illegal, but because he is usually arrogant, rude, and brutal, he has a very bad reputation and is not liked by others.
Zhao Huaiyan read the eyeliner newspaper, and then said: "The search for the Mongolian princess..." He paused, looked at the minister standing behind Zuo Hang on the right, and said: "Let the full power be at the disposal of Mr. Jin, and you will assist from the side and It's up to you to report back to me."
As soon as these words came out, Zuo Hang and Mr. Jin were both startled, and looked up at him in bewilderment.
Zuo Hang said directly: "Your Majesty, although Sir Zuo is a newly promoted third-class general, but I think he is just an idiot and useless, I can handle this matter myself."
That Lord Jin's complexion was slightly pale, he came out after gritting his molar teeth, he just lowered his head and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, Lord Zuo is older than the minister after all, the matter of the Mongol princess being robbed is of great importance, I dare not underestimate myself, It is better to ask Mr. Zuo to be the master, and the minister will assist you..."
"I believe in you." Zhao Huaiyan said directly.
Mr. Jin's complexion was slightly gloomy, but he didn't dare to show anything wrong when facing Zhao Huaiyan.
Zuo Hang was really puzzled, and he really looked down on Mr. Jin, but seeing how determined Zhao Huaiyan was, it was hard to say anything.
Soon after retreating from the court, both Xu Boshan and Lin Jincheng stayed, and only then asked the reason, Zhao Huaiyan only gave them the secret letter he had obtained.
After Lin Jincheng finished reading, he couldn't help frowning: "It is said that Mr. Zuo colluded with others, intending to usurp the throne..."
"Master Zuo is an upright person, and he can't hide his temper in his heart. If he wanted to seek the court and usurp the throne, it would have been written on his face." Xu Boshan said.
"Then why did the people behind him wrongly frame him?" Zhao Huaiyan asked again.
Xu Boshan and Lin Jincheng looked at each other, thought for a while, and said, "Could it be because of the military power in Master Zuo's hands."
"Ah."
Zhao Huaiyan gave the answer directly.
Only then did Xu Boshan and Lin Jincheng figure out why he only let Lord Zuo assist him. If something happened to the Mongolian princess, he would not be implicated. Instead, it was the third-rank general, Lord Jin. If something happened to Lord Zuo, he would be the first to benefit It's him.
After Lin Jincheng listened here for a while, he knew that Zhao Huaiyan was already prepared, so he didn't worry too much, so he asked the order to come out to see Lin Jinhua.
At that time, she was teaching her two children to read poems, surrounded by the maids, chatting and laughing, very comfortable.
"Uncle!" Seeing Lin Jincheng, Jiu'er trotted over and was hugged in his arms.
Lin Jincheng smiled lightly, and took out the mahogany sword he had specially brought in this time. It was a small one, with two different colored necklaces hanging on it. It was very beautiful.
Putao also came up, seeing the mahogany sword, he was even more happy, and after getting it, he asked Lin Jinhua: "Mother, can we play with this?"
Lin Jinhua naturally agreed, the world is dangerous, so it is best for them to preserve the ability to protect themselves.
Soon Mo Xue took the two children to the side to make gestures, and Lin Jinhua got up and smiled at Lin Jincheng: "The weather is fine today, let's go."
"En." Lin Jincheng saw that her complexion was getting worse again, so he just followed her side with distress, and walked slowly to the nearby lake.
"I heard you didn't feel well last night?"
"It's not a big deal. You don't tell me anything recently, so I don't have to worry about it. It's just that I have nightmares occasionally." She remembered the tiger charm with strange patterns and said with a smile: "Where is the girl named Zhenxi?" ?”
Lin Jincheng mentioned Lin Zhenxi, but he laughed: "She wants to see you very much, but it seems that by accident, she became the concubine of King Mu, and now the two are together, making small fights all day long, I'm afraid I forgot this thing."
Lin Jinhua's smile grew wider when she heard this: "If that's the case, it would be great. Let them alone, let her come into the palace when she is free."
Lin Jincheng also smiled slightly, and accompanied her as he walked slowly by the lake, talking, the days were so leisurely, it seemed not bad.
It wasn't until Lin Jincheng left the palace that Lin Jinhua mentioned Wang Ruyan: "Did you find Yan'er?"
"I found it, but..." Lin Jincheng thought of her, and smiled slightly: "She's been doing well recently, she doesn't seem to need me, and I don't want to make her sad again."
"Brother still doesn't understand women's thoughts, especially Yan'er." If she could really let go of her brother, she wouldn't be so angry that she would get sick in the first place, and even say things like He Li, it was all just out of anger, if it was true Give up, with her temperament, I'm afraid she won't stay in this world at all, why bother to hide out alone.
Lin Jincheng didn't understand, he just looked at her puzzled: "Don't understand what?"
Lin Jinhua smiled, tightened the cloak on her body, and said to him: "Since Yan'er wants you to understand, brother, then go back and think about it. Now that I am in the harem, don't worry about it for the time being. There is Huaiyan in the hall, so you don't have to worry too much, first think about how to bring Yan'er back to be serious."
Lin Jincheng looked at her with a deep smile, and suddenly there was a sliver of hope in his heart, and the gleam of the youthful radiance reappeared on his face: "Can I really get it back?"
Lin Jinhua smiled and rolled her eyes, and said, "Brother, this face is full of scum, if you don't clean it up, don't talk about Yan'er, I don't even want to recognize you."
"I... this..." Lin Jincheng, who had always been calm, became a little flustered at this moment, and hurriedly raised his hand to touch his face and chin, causing Xiao Lingxiaolong, who was following behind, to cover his lips and laugh. Then he hurriedly smiled and said, "Then I'll go back first."
"Yeah." Lin Jinhua smiled, and was finally relieved to see him leaving quickly and happily.
Just as she was about to turn around, a limp body hugged her legs. When she looked down, she saw Jiuer pursing her lips and looking at her aggrievedly: "Mother, Xiao Xun doesn't play swords with me... "
Lin Jinhua blinked, and when she looked up, she found that Su Jingxun was looking at this place in a daze, and his book had also fallen on the ground, and the grapes were bending over to pick it up.
Seeing this, Lin Jinhua suddenly understood that she was usually too spoiled with wine. This child is always attractive, with a small mouth that is naturally sweet, and the people in the palace are hindered by her status as a princess, so she basically responds to requests.
She suddenly looked at Jiu'er seriously, and said: "You tell mother first, why doesn't Jingxun play with you?"
Jiu'er didn't understand why she asked, but said honestly: "He said he didn't like books, but he liked books, but Jiu'er doesn't like books..."
Lin Jinhua looked at her, and when it came to this matter, she didn't have a strong intention to blame, but she simply didn't understand why Su Jingxun rejected her.
Seeing her innocent appearance, Lin Jinhua finally relaxed her serious face, picked her up, and said with a smile: "If my mother told you to put down your favorite sword now and go to school, would you be willing? "
Jiu'er pursed her lips, thought for a while, and shook her head.
"Is it reasonable for you to ask Jing Xun to give up the books he likes to read and play mahogany swords with you?" Lin Jinhua asked her patiently.
Jiu'er thought for a while, then nodded, but looked at her confusedly and said, "But Sister Cai Qiao said, I am a princess, everyone has to listen to me, and whatever I say is what..."
As soon as she said this, the maid who followed her quickly turned pale and lowered her head.
Lin Jinhua glanced at her indifferently, then turned to look at Jiu'er and smiled, "Then Jiu'er thinks mother's words are right, or Cai Qiao's words are right?"
"Of course it's mother." Smiling, Jiu'er kissed Lin Jinhua's face, revealing her sweet dimples, which made everyone's heart soften.
Lin Jinhua also thinks that her daughter is the cutest in the world, but she can't make mistakes in principle, she doesn't want to teach an arrogant and unreasonable princess.
She just smiled and said: "Since that's the case, then I will listen to my mother from now on, okay?"
"Okay." Jiu'er nodded with a smile. Seeing this, Lin Jinhua didn't say any more and just put her down.
But Jiu'er was born to be likable, and Lin Jinhua caught the sign in time so that no one would lead her away.
She ran to Su Jingxun with a grin, raised her face and said with a smile, "Xiao Xun, if my mother says you don't want to, I can't force you."
Su Jingxun's natural temperament is cooler, and he didn't care about her as a kid at first. Hearing this, he also knew that the empress would not blame him for this, and thus implicate the Dingbeihou Mansion, so he was relieved.
As soon as he turned around to leave, he felt his hand go soft, and looking down again, Jiu'er's chubby little hand was firmly grasping his somewhat cold hand, and said with a smile, "I'll follow you. When you don't want to study anymore, I will accompany you." I play with wooden swords."
Su Jingxun finally showed a slight smile, held her hand back, saluted slightly in Lin Jinhua's direction, and led her to a nearby pavilion.
After they left, the smile on Lin Jinhua's face gradually faded, looking at the court lady Cai Qiao beside her, she asked, "How old are you this year?"
"My maidservant is twenty this year." Cai Qiao finished speaking with a little guilty conscience, and found that Lin Jinhua's face was a little cold, so she quickly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, this maidservant didn't mean to tell the princess these things, it's just that occasionally some palace people don't like you Long eyes, that's why the servant taught the princess to protect herself..."
"The princess is only less than two years old, did you teach her to bully others?" Lin Jinhua was a little annoyed, no matter what the motive of this court lady was, it was definitely not for the sake of wine, if someone bullied her, she could tell herself.There are no other concubines in this harem, so where are there so many scruples and taboos?Most likely because she saw that she was sick and Madam Cui couldn't take care of her, she wanted to take advantage of the situation to hold Jiu'er, and wait for Jiu'er to get stronger, so she could use Jiu'er's power to bully others.
Thinking of this, her complexion became even more serious. Cai Qiao saw that she had been exposed, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, this servant is also for the sake of the princess..."
Lin Jinhua didn't bother arguing with her, but felt that such a person could never stay by Jiu'er's side to serve her, so she said: "Forget it, I think you didn't cause a catastrophe, so I can forgive you, you are not young now Let me let you go out of the palace." After finishing speaking, she glanced at Xiaoling who was on the side, Xiaoling understood, and directly led her out.
After they were taken away, Lin Jinhua raised her eyes to look at the backs of the two children, and raised her hand to caress her belly. There is still a baby here, and she doesn't know what kind of temperament it will be in the future...
As the cold wind blew, she coughed a few times before she tightened her cloak again.
"Your Majesty, I heard that the Mongolian Princess has been found..." Mo Feng came over and handed her the hand-warming stove, looked at her slightly pale complexion, and said softly.
"Well, you don't need to tell the emperor that I know about it." Lin Jinhua smiled lightly, he was worried that he would think too much, but if he didn't know, he felt uneasy.
Mo Feng responded with a smile.
Outside the palace, Xu Chengqing and Baozhu have quickly locked the location of the robbers. No one in the capital dares to blatantly obstruct them. Basically, Zhao Huaiyan is the one who is able to deal with them, so the rescue has become very easy.
It was only after he was rescued that Xu Chengqing wondered. The letter said that there was only one Mongolian princess visiting, so why did he bring another beautiful princess?
When Baozhu saw the princess, for some reason, her complexion became a little dignified.
