Chapter 204 Stripping
When the queen mother saw Mo Xue coming, she was not too surprised. She had even looked for it for Lin Jinhua, but she didn't expect it to be here.

She looked at the person and laughed: "Why, she won't come by herself?"

"Your Majesty is busy with business, so it's not convenient to come to see the Queen Mother. It's the same for servants to come. It's just that the servants heard from Xi'er, do you want to see the prince and princess?" Mo Xue stood in front of her lightly, looking at the slightly pale-faced girl leaning against the bed. asked the man.

"Yes, the Ai family misses their granddaughter and grandson." The Empress Dowager Jiang coughed twice, then looked at her and smiled again: "Is the empress not allowing me to see them?"

"Of course not, but you are very clear why you want to meet the prince and the princess. The empress is not a fool, and the emperor is not. Empress Dowager Jiang, are you still not satisfied with the current reconciliation?" Mo Xue looked at her lightly, from From the beginning of Xixia, she knew her nature was ruthless and ruthless. If she said she was absolutely ruthless, it was not completely so. She had feelings, but most of the time, she used them in the wrong place. For example, this time, she I thought it was good for the emperor.

The smile on Mrs. Jiang's back gradually faded, and she looked up at her: "Anyway, the Ai family is going to die, do you think the Ai family still cares about this?"

After all, Mo Xue is just a court lady, so she can't tell her more, but she also knows that she will not repent, so she just said: "Your Majesty is not feeling well recently, and it is inconvenient to come to see the Empress Dowager. In a few days, the prince and princess will leave the palace temporarily. I don't have time to come here either. During this period of time, the Empress Dowager should just rest in the Compassionate Peace Palace, it's cold outside, so it's better not to wander around." After saying that, she saluted and went out.

Empress Dowager Jiang looked at her back, and finally said, "Where is Qian'er, what did you do to her?"

"Daring to murder the prince and princess is a capital crime." Mo Xue looked sideways at her slightly shocked expression, her gaze was slightly deep, and after waking up and saluting, she turned and left.

As soon as she left, Empress Dowager Jiang coughed violently.

"That silly girl, silly girl..." The Empress Dowager Jiang coughed, her eyes were a little moist, she looked at the increasingly deserted Palace of Compassion and Peace, and at the little light coming in from the window paper, she finally fell powerlessly Lying on the bed, a pair of eyes that were no longer clean looked at the window, at the freshly picked flower on the window, and finally let out a long sigh.

After Zhao Huaiyan received the news, she came back from the imperial study very quickly, only to find that Lin Jinhua had fallen into a deep sleep again.

He recalled his dream, looked at her stomach, raised his hand and gently placed it on her stomach, felt the warmth of her body, and called her softly: "Hua'er."

Lin Jinhua could hear his voice, but this time, she didn't want to wake up from this dream, because she knew that someone was saying goodbye to her.

In the vast expanse of whiteness, she couldn't see or hear anything, but the feeling of sadness in her heart was very strong, so strong that it seemed that it was about to be stripped from her body.

"Hua'er." Zhao Huaiyan continued to call her: "Jiu'er and Putao are about to wake up and see their mother."

"Grape, wine..." Lin Jinhua finally woke up from that dream as she thought about the child, but after waking up, tears fell out of her eyes somehow.

She looked at the gentle man in front of her, grabbed his hand and smiled slightly: "I can hear your voice in my dream, Huai Yan, I feel like something is about to leave."

Zhao Huaiyan guessed it carelessly, and only smiled slightly: "Father will come back tomorrow, let's go see him together."

Lin Jinhua nodded. She wanted to see her father, but the emotions in her body seemed to want it even more.

"Mother—!"

Just when she was still thinking deeply, a voice of joy came, and then she saw a pink and white girl in a red embroidered jacket running over like a wind, she threw herself into Zhao Huaiyan's arms first, and called out affectionately After saying fatherly, he turned his head to look at Lin Jinyu on the bed, blinked his big eyes and said, "Mother, let's go to Dingbei Houye's house to play, shall we?"

"Why do you suddenly want to go to Dingbeihou's house?" Lin Jinhua asked strangely, and didn't Su Jingxun just come here yesterday?
"Because..." Jiu'er bit his lip a little embarrassed, and Putao, who came slowly, said, "Because Xiaojing said that Dingbeihou's family raised a fox, so my sister wanted to see it." After Putao finished speaking, there was a look Some people saluted before walking forward and smiling.

Lin Jinhua and Zhao Huaiyan looked at each other: "Fox?"

Jiu'er also nodded: "Xiao Jing said that there is a vixen in his house..."

Lin Jinhua: "..."

Zhao Huaiyan also smiled, it seems that King Jiang really spoiled Jiang Qijing, at such a young age, he still knows what to say.

He looked at Jiu'er's expectant face, and said with a smile: "It's someone else's fox after all, how about my father treating you to hunt a fox?"

"Really?" Jiu'er raised her small face and looked at him with bright eyes, expectant.

"Naturally, how has Father ever lied to you?" Zhao Huaiyan said with a smile.

Jiu'er was so excited that he was about to jump up, and quickly turned to look at Lin Jinhua: "Then mother, let's go together."

Lin Jinhua smiled: "You go with Emperor Father, Mother won't be going today."

"Why, is my sister not good?" Jiu'er looked at her belly in confusion, stretched out his little hand to touch it, and asked in confusion.

"My sister is very good. Mother didn't sleep well last night, so she will be lazy and sleep more later." Lin Jinhua said with a smile, and when she saw the two children, she naturally felt better.

Jiu'er approached and hugged Lin Jinhua in a sensible way, before comforting him, "Mother, rest well."

Xiaoling and Xiaolong covered their lips and smiled lightly, and Lin Jinhua also responded with a smile.

Zhao Huaiyan knew that Lin Jinhua was waking up and had to prepare things for returning to Lin's house tomorrow, so she just smiled and said, "Don't be tired."

"Yeah." Lin Jinhua nodded, seeing him go out with wine, she looked straight at her own grapes and smiled, "What's the matter?"

Putao obediently stepped forward, looked at her and said, "Pao won't go, Putao wants to take care of the queen mother."

Lin Jinhua's eyes were wet when she heard this, Putao was careful, and when she saw it, she raised her little hand to wipe her tears, and said, "My queen, don't cry, Putao is here, and Putao will always be with my queen."

Lin Jinhua gently hugged him in his arms, and said, "The empress knows, but the empress is fine, as long as the empress is happy, Putao is fine."

"But the queen mother is happy, and Putao is happy." Putao refused to go. Although going out hunting with the emperor father was very attractive, but the queen mother seemed uncomfortable. The younger sister loves to play. He is an older brother, and he must take responsibility.

Seeing his determined face, Lin Jinhua didn't say any more, just said: "Then Putao helps the queen mother pack things. Let's go to my grandfather's house to see my grandfather tomorrow, okay?"

Seeing that she was willing to let him help her, Putao became more and more happy.

Lin Jinhua watched him get up to ask the maids what they wanted to pack, saw his small back running around, and saw him chattering a lot, only then realized that the energy and attention she had put on him recently had been less. Quite a lot, because of this in the belly, coupled with the lively wine, he somewhat ignored the well-behaved and sensible him.

Thinking about it this way, she just got up by herself, and when she came, she packed things with Putao, and taught him to recite poems and recite poems from time to time.

In this compartment, Zhao Huaiyan is also ready with wine.

Zhao Huaiyan changed into a black narrow-sleeved robe, a cloak of the same color, all her black hair tied up, and she looked mighty and handsome.

Jiu'er was still wearing a red skirt, a red cloak with white fringe, and buckskin boots, her whole body became more and more rounded, like a little red dumpling. .

Just as he was about to leave, Jiang Qijing also came, and Su Jingxun walked behind with a calm expression, as if he didn't mind what Jiang Qijing said, but when he looked at the little girl who was led by Zhao Huaiyan, all the frost in his eyes It all melted away.

"Xiao Xun!" Jiu'er was very happy to see him coming.

Seeing that she didn't call him, Jiang Qijing snorted and said, "Little princess, why don't you call me!"

Seeing that he was standing in front of her, Jiu'er blinked: "Aren't you right in front of you, Xiaojing?"

"I..." Jiang Qijing was anxious to defend himself, but Su Jingxun had already walked up to him, and Jiu'er immediately said to him, "Xiao Xun, Father wants to take me out hunting, to catch foxes in the forest, let's go together."

Su Jingxun saluted Zhao Huaiyan, then smiled and said, "I don't like hunting."

Jiu'er looked at Zhao Huaiyan, Zhao Huaiyan only said indifferently: "It's okay, you like literature, you can just read in the palace." After speaking, he looked at Jiang Qijing: "Come here, prepare a horse for the king of the small county."

Jiang Qijing hesitated for a moment, and hurriedly said, "I don't know how to ride a horse either..."

"Really? King Jiang told you that other people have foxes, why didn't he tell you to ride a horse?" Zhao Huaiyan said.

"I..." Although Jiang Qijing is small, he has a lot of self-esteem. Hearing this, he also knows that he shouldn't tell people about the vixen everywhere, so he just said: "Then, can you teach me how to ride a horse, Your Majesty?"

Zhao Huaiyan smiled slightly, looked at Gao Zhi who was on the side, and Gao Zhi laughed: "Don't worry, the little county king, the lower officials will personally teach the county king."

Although Jiu'er didn't understand what they were talking about, he just smiled and said, "Xiao Jing, you are not afraid, are you?"

"Of course not. I'm going to be a great hero in the future, huh!" After he finished speaking arrogantly, he looked at Jiu'er's dark eyes, then at Su Jingxun, who had only just learned to be sensible, and walked up to Gao Zhi. In front of him, he bowed politely and said: "It will be hard work for a while, my lord."

"Young prince is very polite." Gao Zhi returned the gift.

Then everyone went out with a smile on their faces. When they left, Su Jingxun took a step outside, but after thinking about it, he finally took it back.

In his life, he would never be the same as his father, nor would he be a military officer. He let himself be involuntary all the year round, failed his wife and children, and made them suffer at home.

He watched Jiu'er leaving with Jiang Qijing talking and smiling, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, the cold wind blowing, rolled up snowflakes, together with the red palace wall, it has become a beautiful painting, in the painting, that The pink girl in red is like a little sun, always so warm.

Jiu'er now only has a moment in mind to go hunting, thinking of hunting a little fox for fun.

"I'll catch it for you in a while." Jiang Qijing said with a smile.

"Really?"

"Of course, I'm going to be a great hero in the future." Jiang Qijing raised his chin high. He thought of Mo Xue who flew over the roof and wall that day, and he admired him. He will definitely become that kind of hero.

Jiu'er looked at him innocently, Zhao Huaiyan didn't expose it, just smiled lightly.

He still remembered the first meeting with Hua'er a long time ago. She was also this size, and she was innocent and kind.

Soon a few people arrived at the racecourse. Zhao Huaiyan's royal BMW was a bloody horse. As for Gao Zhi, he picked a gentle pony for Jiang Qijing. Beside Zhao Huaiyan's sweaty horse, it looked like it hadn't grown big pony.

Jiang Qijing was dissatisfied, and said directly: "I want to ride a big horse!"

"Little Prince, Malaysia is in danger..."

"I don't care, I'm going to ride a big horse!" His habitual dandyism immediately came out, Gao Zhiwei looked at Zhao Huaiyan, Zhao Huaiyan only said to Gao Zhi: "You take him .”

After listening to Gao Zhi, he smiled wryly and said: "Your Majesty, in case you are frightened..."

Zhao Huaiyan only looked at Jiang Qijing, and said, "Will the little prince be scared to cry or pee his pants?"

"Of course not, I will be a great hero in the future!" Jiang Qijing snorted arrogantly, and the corners of Zhao Huaiyan's mouth slightly curled up, but he was still very relieved of his superb riding skills.

Soon, a group of people rode their horses to the small hunting ground closest to the imperial palace. It was just a small hill or two. It used to be a place for princes to practice riding and shooting.

Zhao Huaiyan let Jiu'er sit in his arms, rode the horse forward quickly, and Gao Tian followed behind, and Jiang Qijing was naturally also in his arms. Although Jiang Qijing strongly asked to ride alone, Gao Tian refused.

"Hurry up, or you will lose track of them!" Jiang Qijing said anxiously as he watched the people in front run faster and faster.

"Yes." Gao Zhi saw that his hands were constantly trying to grab his reins, raised the corners of his mouth, and deliberately put the reins into his hands and said: "I'm tired, the little county king will drive the horse."

Jiang Qijing was exactly what he wanted, so he immediately took the reins, but he didn't have the strength to hold the horse. The horse jolted, and his small body was almost knocked off after a few jolts. Well, he raised his front hoof and snorted impatiently, and ran forward like a joy.

Jiang Qijing was completely frightened, but he didn't dare to let go of the rein, so he could only pull it around, until he was so jolted that he doubted his life, and his palms seemed to be bleeding, he finally couldn't help saying: "I can't drive well, You come."

"What?" Gao Zhi deliberately pretended not to hear.

"I..." Jiang Qijing gritted his teeth, and finally said, "I can't catch it anymore."

Gao Zhi saw that his face was flushed with embarrassment, and he didn't make things difficult for him anymore, not to mention that his horse is also famously docile, he just patted the horse's butt, after pulling the rein, he was easy to control got the horse.

He saw that Zhao Huaiyan's horse had already entered the forest, and then he held the rein in one hand and hugged Jiang Qijing in the other with a smile, "Little Duke, are you ready?"

"what to prepare?"

"Get ready to catch up with the emperor!" Gao Zhi said with a smile, clamped the horse's belly between his legs, shouted loudly, and drove the horse to a fast run, so fast that Jiang Qijing was too frightened to move, and waited When the horse entered the woods, he subconsciously hugged Gao Xian's arm tightly, not daring to move at all. After an unknown amount of time, the horse finally stopped. Zhao Huaiyan and Jiu'er had already After getting off the horse, the two were standing by a small cave looking at something.

He was carried off the horse, his calf was weak, luckily Gao Zhi grabbed him in time, and smiled at him: "Little county king, you can't show your timidity in front of the princess, I'll tell you that you were the one driving the horse just now."

"Really?" Jiang Qi looked forward to seeing him.

Gao Zhi grinned: "Fake. If you have done it, you have done it. If you can do it, you can do it. Your subordinates can't lie." After speaking, he obediently stepped forward to salute Zhao Huaiyan, but Jiang Qijing was stunned.

Jiu'er turned her head, saw him standing there blankly, and whispered to him: "Xiaojing, what are you doing?"

"No...it's okay." Jiang Qijing blushed, gritted his teeth and ran up, but when he got close, Jiu'er immediately booed him: "There are little foxes, don't wake them up."

Jiang Qijing immediately slowed down his pace, and when he got closer, he saw that there was indeed a little white fox sleeping under the mother fox's belly on the withered grass in the cave, but its leg seemed to be injured, even so Many people approached but didn't find it, and the female fox... seemed to be dead.

Seeing that Jiu'er didn't notice, Jiang Qijing gritted his teeth and didn't make a sound. He just walked to Zhao Huaiyan's side, and gently tugged on his sleeve. After he leaned over, he whispered, "Is this a vixen?"

Zhao Huaiyan looked at him in a daze, but thought of his father. His biological mother died young, and his biological father married his stepmother very early, and had already given birth to a child. That's why King Jiang loved him so much. Regarding the vixen, he was not originally appointed by Beihou Mansion. , but refers to Jiang Wangfu.

Zhao Huaiyan looked at him, his face still pale, but he said: "That's just an ordinary fox, there is no vixen in this world."

"Really? But they all say-"

"They said it was they who said, when you grow up, you have to see for yourself." After Zhao Huaiyan finished speaking, seeing his still confused look, he gave him a high-minded look.

Gao Jie understood, stepped forward to wrap the injured little fox with a soft cloth, and then said softly: "The mother fox is asleep and can't take care of this little fox. This little fox is injured again. If you don't take it back, I'm afraid I'm going to die."

Jiu'er was so anxious that he begged Zhao Huaiyan: "Father, can we take it back and take care of it?"

"It has its place." Zhao Huaiyan smiled slightly, just as the little fox opened its eyes, looked at the stranger in front of it, and shrank back in fright, but because it was too small and its claws were not sharp enough, it could only whimper struggle.

"The emperor, will you put it back?"

"En." Zhao Huaiyan responded lightly, and then said to Jiuer: "Little fox likes to be with mother, we can't separate them, right?"

"But its mother fell asleep..."

"I will wake up even if I fall asleep. If I wake up and lose the child, how anxious should I be?" Zhao Huaiyan asked again.

When Jiu'er thought of her mother, and then thought of this female fox, even though she was very, very sad in her heart, she wiped away her tears and nodded with a sob.

After Zhao Huaiyan finished speaking, she took her back.

Gao Tian kept the little fox back to a distance, and then took Jiang Qijing's hand and walked slowly forward.

Jiang Qijing was in a daze, he didn't know what to think, until he was about to go down the mountain, he stopped, pulled Gao Zhi and said, "Wait for me." After speaking, he turned his head and ran back.

Gao Zhi saw that it was getting late, and looked at his small back, naturally he refused to let him go alone, but he didn't help him, and followed behind him.

Although he has no children, he can tell that Jiang Qijing's nature is not bad, so he is willing to help him.

The sky was getting dark, and Jiang Qijing strenuously walked forward. He was holding back his breath. Although he was younger, he didn't know everything. He knew that his stepmother was telling people behind his back that his mother was a vixen. Said he was born of a fox spirit.

This time, he is going to take the little fox back and show her to see if there is any vixen!

When he walked uphill, because he didn't pay attention to a pit under his feet, he fell into the snowdrift.

Gao Tian was taken aback, thinking that he was going to cry, but he didn't expect that he slowly got up by himself, his hands and face were flushed from the cold, he didn't cry at all, he gritted his teeth and walked forward up.

Until it got dark, finally arrived at the hole, the little fox was still there, but the mother fox was really dead.

The little fox whimpered immediately when he saw him coming.

Jiang Qijing moved the chubby body, squatted down by the entrance of the cave, smiled inwardly and said, "I don't have a mother anymore, and you don't have a mother anymore. Come with me, I'll take care of you."

The little fox's head tilted slightly, Jiang Qijing was not in a hurry, and reached out to it: "Don't worry, I will take good care of you."

"Zhizhi..." The little fox slowly moved out, and finally reached his hand, but still didn't dare to get close.

Seeing the dead female fox beside him, Jiang Qijing choked up a little, but swallowed all his tears, and slowly stretched out his hand to stroke it. Finally, it didn't escape, but just looked at it strangely.

Jiang Qijing stroked it slowly, seeing that it was getting darker and darker outside, finally took off his cloak and spread it on the ground, and said, "Let's go, let's go home."

The little fox seemed to understand what he said, but still reluctantly turned to look at his mother and cried out sadly.

Jiang Qijing thought about it, walked into the narrow hole himself, dug a hole in the snow with his hands, and slowly put the mother fox in to bury it. Turning his head, he found that there were tears in the little fox's eyes. .

"Let's go home." Jiang Qijing reached out to the little fox, and it finally jumped into his arms.

Jiang Qijing laughed, and carefully wrapped his cloak around it, but now it was completely dark, he remembered that this is a hunting ground, there might be quite a few ferocious beasts...

Thinking of this, he immediately got up and carried it to the direction he came from just now.

Gao Tian was always behind him, seeing that he tamed a fox, he was also surprised.But everything has animism, maybe this little fox knows that he chooses the master.

He smiled slightly, saw Jiang Qijing in front of him who was tense with fright, and laughed: "Little Duke."

"Guard Gao..." Hearing his voice, Jiang Qijing felt a sense of peace of mind that he had never felt before.

He looked at the person walking slowly in the dark night, and although he knew that he was not his own, he still said: "Guard Gao, thank you."

"The little prince will also say thank you?"

"Of course, my mother... also taught me." Jiang Qijing turned his face away arrogantly, but there was a smile that couldn't be hidden at the corner of his mouth. He looked at the little fox in his arms, and the corner of his mouth finally twitched.

After returning to the palace at night, it was the first time that he didn't play around with the wine, but called Zhao Huaiyan early and asked him to go to the imperial hospital to save his little fox.

But tomorrow is the fifth day of the lunar new year, and he is leaving tonight, and King Jiang also sent someone.

"Little Junwang, what's wrong with you, why does it seem like you've caught a cold, oh, and you're injured..." The nanny who came to pick him up said exaggeratedly, pulling him.

"You don't have to worry about it." Jiang Qijing shook off her hand and said in disgust: "If you dare to say something weird, I will tell my grandfather that I will beat you thirty times and then drive you out!"

When the nanny heard this, she quickly stopped talking, but her eyeballs rolled away, and she wanted to quietly instruct the servant girl to answer the conversation. Jiang Qijing had already expected it: "I caused these injuries myself, and I almost hurt the emperor and his wife." Princess, if you want to go back and talk, just say it, but if you say something wrong, I will hang you all up at the gate and freeze you to death!"

When the nanny heard this, her face turned blue, and she sighed in her heart at this dandy and naughty little county king, but she didn't dare to say a word, she just wanted to deal with him after returning to Beiyan.

Not long after, the Tai Hospital also treated the little fox's wound, and then said: "Little county king, all the veterans treat people, this is the first time to treat a fox, and this fox is still so young, I'm afraid it won't be able to support you. .”

"I will take care of it." Jiang Qijing gritted his teeth and turned to stare at the nanny: "Go and find a way, if it dies, I want you to be buried with it!"

"Young Prince, this servant is your nanny after all, but this is just a wild fox..."

"Do you want me to give it back to you now after eating your milk? Your life is not as good as this fox..." After Jiang Qijing finished speaking, after thinking about it, he couldn't call him a little fox forever. He turned to look at it, It also only looked at itself, the candlelight was faint in its eyes, like the cold and desolate moonlight in this dark night.

He smiled slightly and asked it: "I will call you Ayue from now on."

The little fox seemed very happy and rubbed against it affectionately, but the nuns thought he was stupid and talked to the fox instead of raising a fox.

Jiang Qijing ignored them, and when he left, he only hugged the little fox Ayue and wanted to see Jiu'er, but the palace gate was locked, so he had no choice but to go back.

Jiu'er is still thinking about the little fox in his heart, hoping that its injury can heal quickly, thinking about it, he also fell into a deep sleep.

At dawn the next day, King Jiang took Jiang Qijing to leave. When he came to see Zhao Huaiyan, he was a little complicated when he mentioned Jiang Qijing.

"This time Jing'er went back, she became more sensible." King Jiang smiled politely, "I would also like to thank the emperor and empress for their cultivation."

"King Jiang is polite." Zhao Huaiyan knew that he still blamed them for meddling in their own business, but it was no use talking about it.

Jiang Qijing followed at the side, looked at Zhao Huaiyan with bright eyes, and said: "Your Majesty, when I grow up, I will definitely come back to marry Jiu'er."

Zhao Huaiyan laughed but said nothing.

King Jiang watched from the sidelines, frowned slightly, and said a few more polite words before taking Jiang Qijing away, but at the very least, Beiyan and Daqi would not go to war.

When Jiang Qijing left, he turned his head three times a step, as if looking at Jiu'er, but Sheng Jiu'er and Grape were both in the harem...

He followed King Jiang reluctantly and walked forward, and finally when he was leaving the palace gate, he saw a few people hiding in the corner with their waists bent.

King Jiang didn't notice it, but Jiang Qijing saw it at a glance.

Jiu'er waved at him, and Jiang Qijing almost jumped up happily, taking advantage of the moment King Jiang was out of the palace, he slipped away to the corner.

"Jiu'er, Prince, you are all here!" Jiang Qijing looked at them happily and said.

"Xiaojing, it was the queen mother who told us that you were going back to Beiyan early this morning, so will you come back in the future?" Putao asked him.

Jiang Qi nodded: "Don't worry, I will definitely!"

"That's great, Xiao Jing is waiting for you to come back, let's play together again!" Jiu'er also laughed.

"Okay, it's a deal!" Jiang Qijing looked at the two with a smile, and after saying goodbye, although he was reluctant to part, he turned around and left.

He knew he couldn't stay here forever.

When he was leaving, he was sitting in the carriage, and King Jiang was still telling him about the righteousness of the country and Daqi's ambition, but he didn't listen.

He just hugged Ah Yue, quietly thinking about his own affairs.

"What is this?" Jiang Wang asked with a smile when he saw that there was a delicate purse beside him.

"Jiu'er gave it to me." Thinking of this, Jiang Qijing smiled even wider. He opened it, and inside was Jiu'er's favorite glutinous rice dumpling.

Jiang Wang looked at it, his eyes narrowed slightly: "Then when you grow up, grandpa will marry her for you, okay?"

Jiang Qijing didn't understand, so of course he nodded.

Jiang Wang smiled meaningfully, and only gave him a loving look before letting the carriage go.

As soon as Jiang Qijing left, the palace became much deserted in an instant. Without a playmate like him, Jiu'er's nature was a little dull. Even when Putao came, she just hung herself on the chair in the corridor boredly. Angrily asked him: "Brother, what are we playing this afternoon?"

"Today we are going back to my grandfather's house to see my uncle and aunt." Putao laughed.

"Then I'll go find my mother!" Upon hearing this, Jiu'er regained her enthusiasm, and ran away with her skirt in hand.

Putao smiled, and trotted forward.

Lin Jinhua had already packed her things, and Mo Xue had already arranged the carriages and horses, and they all set off for Lin's house after lunch.

Mrs. Xu has been waiting at the Lin's house for a long time. Since Yuan Shao returned to Beijing yesterday, he has been busy discussing the war situation with General Zuo so as to discuss with Zhao Huaiyan, so he hasn't come here yet.

Lin Jinhua just arrived, and the Xu family, including the Lin family, came out to greet her. The people circled around the perimeter twice, which was very lively.

Lin Jinhua just got out of the carriage. Jiu'er and Putao wanted to jump out, but Xiaoling Xiaolong immediately stopped them and reminded in a low voice: "Prince and Princess, the people are all watching."

After finishing speaking, the two little cats obediently set off at full speed, and got out of the carriage in the arms of the maid. After waiting for everyone to salute, they followed Lin Jinhua into the Lin Mansion.

When you enter the mansion, you will be able to relax.

Lin Jinhua was talking to Mrs. Xu. Wang Ruyan had to take care of everything inside and outside the Lin family, so she was also very busy. Lin Jincheng was discussing with Xu Boshan what would happen after Lin Luzhi came back today. Just got into the kitchen.

The Lin family's kitchen is different from the one in the palace, and it's also different from Mammy Cui. It has a different taste. The siblings have been hungry for a long time.

The Lin family is also very busy today, especially in the kitchen. There are four big pots cooking inside and out, and the servants are busy working without touching the floor, so the two of them quietly came over without attracting too much attention.

Mo Xue followed behind them, smiling to see that they were wondering how to get into the kitchen, and said with a smile: "I know there is a place where they put the prepared dishes, and there is no one around right now."

"Really, Aunt Xue, you take us there!" Jiu'er turned around immediately and said.

"Will you listen to me at that moment?" Mo Xue asked.

Jiu'er nodded immediately, while Putao smiled and neither nodded nor shook his head, trying to get away with it.

Mo Xue didn't expose him, she just hugged them up with a smile, and while everyone inside was busy, she quickly led them past the crowd and entered the unoccupied compartment through a window.

The ground dragons are burned in all the compartments, and the prepared dishes are placed here in advance, and they will be brought out when it is time to eat. She knew this before.

As soon as the two little ones came, they smelled the aroma all over the room, as if a little mouse had entered a rice vat, and began to widen their eyes in amazement.

Mo Xue went to bring two plates of side dishes and a plate of pastries with a smile, then pointed to a table with the Eight Immortals not far away and said, "Sit down and eat."

"Ah."

The two nodded quickly and went away. Mo Xue picked food for them with peace of mind, and the two of them were responsible for eating. They were surprised that no one came after such a long time. In fact, Mo Xue had already said hello, which is rare. When they came back, they were naturally happy.

At this time, Lin Luzhi was also in a nervous mood. The closer he was to the capital, the more worried he was. He was worried that Hua'er would still refuse to forgive him, and worried that he was really not qualified. Let's take a look at his son and daughter.

Finally, before dark, the carriage arrived at the door of Lin's house.

After Xu Zhaozhao got out of the carriage, she saw that Lin Luzhi hadn't come out for a long time. She comforted her softly, "Uncle, don't worry, Sister Hua'er has come here, which means that she doesn't want to worry about the past anymore."

"But after all... I'm sorry for her." Lin Luzhi sighed, through the curtain of the car, he could still see the familiar Lin's mansion. In the past few years, the people of the Lin family died and scattered. , now it's just him and his sons and daughters left, how can people not feel emotional or sad.

"Since Daddy feels sorry, he shouldn't continue to run away."

Thinking of Lin Jincheng's voice, Lin Luzhi was slightly taken aback, and opened the curtain to look, only to find that he had appeared beside the carriage at some point.

Lin Luzhi saw that he was much thinner, but his eyes became more resolute, and he smiled happily: "Jincheng."

Lin Jincheng also laughed: "Yan'er had someone clean up your yard long ago, if you refused to live here, wouldn't you want to make Yan'er sad?"

"Is Yan'er okay?" Lin Luzhi asked carefully.

"Very good, Yan'er also said before that if you come back, I will find someone to measure your size and make clothes for you." After Lin Jincheng finished speaking, Mo Xue had already brought a full drink And grapes came out.

Putao came out obediently, and Jiu'er asked the carriage, "Grandfather, are you in the carriage?"

The soft and cute voice, full of anticipation, made Lin Luzhi burst into tears, and finally got out of the carriage. Looking at the two very similar dolls in front of him, his heart would melt into a puddle of water.

"Are you grapes and wine?" he asked tremblingly.

"Yes, are you my grandfather?" Jiu'er blinked and asked him.

Lin Luzhi hesitated for a moment. He felt that he was not qualified to admit it, but Lin Jinhua's voice followed: "Of course, why don't you salute your grandfather?"

As soon as Jiu'er Putao heard this, he immediately saluted him in a proper manner. Lin Luzhi hurriedly raised his head, and saw his daughter with a big belly walking slowly, with tears in her eyes and a gentle smile on her face.

"Hua'er." Lin Luzhi looked at her, and finally called out hoarsely.

"Since Daddy is back, why didn't you go in earlier? The food that Yan'er specially ordered someone to prepare today is going to be cold." Lin Jinhua said with a smile.

Wang Ruyan also came from behind, saluted, and then called out with a smile: "Daddy."

"Hey..." Lin Luzhi responded, looking at everything around him, the big stone in his heart finally fell down.

He was confused for half his life, but fortunately, his relatives never gave up on him.

Xu Boshan came out, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "We should also go for a drink, let's go."

"Yes." Lin Luzhi nodded, and then went in with him, Jiu'er and Putao happily followed.

When he went in, Lin Jinhua's tears fell, and the intense sadness in her heart seemed to fade away. She could even clearly feel that something was peeling off from her body. It was only after hearing her father's return yesterday. This kind of feeling, after seeing his father today, it seems that some kind of wish has been fulfilled.

"Could it be me?" Lin Jinhua asked softly, but the sadness became weaker and weaker, and finally, it turned into a wisp of wind beside her ear, blowing the hair around her ear, and disappeared in the cold wind .

"Hua'er, what's the matter?" Lin Jincheng came over and asked hurriedly when he saw that there was something wrong with his expression.

Lin Jinhua shook her head, and before she could make a sound, there was a sound of horseshoes, and then she saw two people riding on horses approaching, and when they got closer, they could clearly see that it was Yuan Shao and Huaiyan.

She saw Xu Zhaozhao running over with tears in his eyes, and Huai Yan looking at her with a gentle smile, all the uneasiness in her heart disappeared, as if all the dust had settled, and this was the day that the future should have.

Then she looked at Lin Jincheng and smiled slightly: "Brother, all the sufferings of the past are over."

Although Lin Jincheng didn't know why she said that, but seeing the happiness in her eyes, he also laughed: "Yeah, it's over, we all have to live a good life from now on."

Lin Jinhua smiled slightly, she will, she will definitely, and she must protect her family and lover!

Just as she was thinking, the sound of firecrackers suddenly ignited in the yard. She looked sideways, and it turned out that Xiaoling Xiaolong was playing with firecrackers with wine and grapes. Lin Luzhi was also holding two firecrackers carefully. It looked like The way she wants to show them, the happiness on her face, she has seen before, when she was a child, when her mother was still there.

Zhao Huaiyan came over, covered her with the cloak, and then hugged her with a smile: "It's cold outside, don't catch a cold."

Lin Jinhua smiled slightly, looked back at Xu Zhaozhao who was holding Yuan Shao to tears, and went in with a smile.

At this moment Xu Zhaozhao is still acting like a baby: "Why did you come back now!"

"Zhao Zhao misses me." Yuan Shao looked at her with only deep love in his eyes.

"No." Xu Zhaozhao snorted and wanted to leave, but Yuan Shao grabbed her hand and hugged her tightly: "Then change it, I miss you, I miss you so much."

Xu Zhaozhao's eyes warmed slightly, and he raised his hand to hug him tightly, looking at his mature eyes, smiled slightly, and finally hugged him tightly.

With the sound of firecrackers, there were fireworks exploding in the sky. This place is lively and warm, but at this time in the Palace of Compassion and Peace, the Empress Dowager Jiang looked at the lonely candle, raised the corners of her mouth sadly and resolutely.
