Queen's Development

Chapter 100 Leave
After ordering Guan Yue to send Princess Li to the West Side Courtyard to be taken care of by Han Yuniang, Lin Tao ordered Ye Chunheng to be called, and said, "Escort the Second Young Master back to the city!"

Ye Chunheng had already received Emperor Yongtai's order to protect Lin Jia, so he answered "yes" and withdrew.

Yuzhi had already packed her luggage and was ready to leave immediately.

In the snowstorm, Ye Chunheng rode a horse and led a group of cavalry to escort Lin Jia's carriage to Qingzhou City.

Yuzhi sat in the carriage with Lin Jia, Hu Yingzhi was wrapped in black fox fur and leaned on the brocade pillow leaning on the upside-down seat, looking sickly, but his peach eyes seemed to be looking at Yuzhi .

Yuzhi was a little embarrassed by Lin Jia, so she leaned on the pillow and closed her eyes to rest.

Lin Jia noticed Hu Yingzhi's gaze, and couldn't help feeling sour, and immediately looked at Hu Yingzhi with a half-smile, "Master Hu, if you want to continue sitting in the carriage, you should close your eyes!"

Hu Yingzhi: "..."

He knew that Lin Jia looked gentle, but her character was very strong, as long as she said something, she must do it, so he glanced at Yuzhi again, then closed her eyes obediently, and fell asleep not long after.

Knowing that Hu Yingzhi and Ye Chunheng were in trial last night, Yuzhi was afraid that he hadn't slept all night. Seeing that he had fallen asleep after closing his eyes, she picked up a small brocade mattress and spread it on Hu Yingzhi's body.

Lin Jia would not be jealous like this, and reached out to hold Yuzhi's hand.

Yuzhi noticed that Lin Jia's hands were cold, so she hurriedly put the purple gold hollow hand stove into Lin Jia's hand, opened the curtains of the car by herself, and looked out.

It was snowing heavily outside, the branches of the poplar trees beside the road were covered with snow, and the wheat field next to it was also covered with a thick quilt by the heavy snow, and the sky and the earth became a world of white snow.

Looking at the heavy snow, Yuzhi put down the curtains of the car, looked at Lin Jia, and said softly, "Guess why there is a proverb 'auspicious snow heralds a good year'?"

Lin Jia had read a lot of books on agriculture, so she laughed immediately: "Because the heavy snow will freeze the pests in the world, and the wheat will be ripe in May next year, so there will naturally be a bumper harvest!"

Yuzhi smiled and praised Lin Jia: "You are amazing, you know all about this!"

But she changed her mind and said again: "Although the heavy snow is good, those refugees may not be able to survive it."

The smile on Lin Jia's face also disappeared, and her pretty face became solemn: "The Great Zhou Dynasty was established for a hundred years, and now 70.00% of the country's land is in the hands of big landlords and big bureaucrats. People lose their land, and they will become refugees when they encounter natural disasters and man-made disasters." In order to change this situation, innovation must be carried out to change this situation.”

Yuzhi nodded, and said: "I have a feeling in the "Historical Records" that the collapse of most dynasties is related to the concentration of land in the hands of a few people and the solidification of social classes. But to change this situation, you have to plan slowly. gone."

Lin Jia nodded: "That's right. There were officials in the court who advocated reform, but they were all impeached by senior officials in the court from aristocratic families and relegated to remote places..."

Yu Zhi stared at Lin Jia, and smiled sweetly: "It seems that you plan to reform slowly?"

She only found out today that Lin Jia had such an ambition.

Lin Jia said "hmm", and seeing Yuzhi looking at him smiling, the smile was full of gentleness and tolerance, he couldn't help but coquettishly said: "You massaged very comfortably last time, please help me massage my hands again!"

Yuzhi agreed briskly, took Lin Jia's right hand, and stroked it from the wrist down to the fingertips.

Hu Yingzhi, who kept his eyes closed all the time, clenched his hands into fists in the black fox fur, and his heart was pounding - it turned out that Lin Jia and Yuzhi were exactly what he thought!
While doing business, Hu Yingzhi was an official. In his spare time, he read books or made surveys among the people. He also saw the changes in the world and the suffering of the people. He has been thinking about the root causes of this situation, trying to find ways to change it How to solve the situation, I didn't expect Lin Jia and Yu Zhi to discuss this kind of thing!
He made up his mind again, gave up his current position as a judge, and followed Lin Jia to the capital.

When they arrived at Qinglong Guanzhai, Ye Chunheng and Hu Yingzhi accompanied Lin Jia to the outer study.

Yuzhi and A Lan naturally followed to serve.

She brewed a pot of Tieguanyin and sent it to the outer study, offered one to Lin Jia, Ye Chunheng and Hu Yingzhi, and then stood quietly to one side to wait.

Lin Jia took a sip of the biserite tea cup, looked at Hu Yingzhi, and said straight to the point: "I will leave for the capital in ten days, Commander Ye will escort me to the capital, Master Hu, have you considered it?"

Hu Yingzhi warmed his hands with a biserite teacup, and said with a smile: "I will naturally follow my lord to Beijing, and serve my lord!"

This was Lin Jia's expected answer. He had been watching Hu Yingzhi coldly, thinking that Hu Yingzhi appeared to be a philistine on the surface, but this philistine was more handsome, but in Hu Yingzhi's body like a sickly beauty , hiding an ambitious soul.

And Lin Jia herself is also an ambitious person, he needs Hu Yingzhi, and Hu Yingzhi also needs him!

After negotiating, Ye Chunheng left six cronies to protect Lin Jia, and went home by himself - he is romantic by nature and loves to be responsible, so in the past few years in Qingzhou, he has taken in six concubines, all of whom were placed in the rented house. In a big mansion, so he had to go back in advance to arrange his six-bedroom concubine.

Hu Yingzhi is a loner with only two young men, Xiongying and Kunpeng, so there is no need to go back to clean up, so he went to find Dr. Liu to give him acupuncture. He thinks that Dr. Liu's acupuncture is quite effective, and he has rarely coughed this winter. up!
After all the guests had left, Yuzhi took Alan and Acheng to Xingping County Prince's Mansion to move luggage for Lin Jia.

In the evening, the snow stopped.

Yuzhi, Alan and Acheng came back with five carts.

Lin Jia was reading a book in the study outside. Hearing the commotion in the courtyard, she walked out curiously. Seeing that Yuzhi and the others had pulled back so much luggage, she couldn't help being stunned.

Yu Zhi was instructing Ah Cheng and Ah Qing to unload and unload their luggage. Seeing Lin Jia's expression, she smiled slyly: "You have already torn face with those people in the palace, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to go back. Naturally, we will take what belongs to you All of them moved back, so as not to take advantage of them!"

She knew that Lin Jia's mother's dowry had been swallowed up by Princess Li, so she worried that Lin Jia was short of money, so she brought back all the things that could be removed from Qinglianyuan.

Lin Jia heard that although she didn't care about these external things, there was a warm current in her heart.

He looked at Yuzhi with a smile, and said softly, "Thank you."

Thank you for coming to my side, taking care of my life, warming my heart, and illuminating my life...

Yuzhi didn't like procrastination the most. After all the luggage was unloaded, she worked with Mrs. Xu's second wife, Jin'er, and her daughter for more than an hour, and finally packed all the luggage.

Before going to bed, Yuzhi changed Lin Jia's medicine again, and then she washed and went to bed.

Late at night.

The snow had stopped early, and everything was silent outside. Occasionally, there was a "click", which was the sound of branches being broken by snow in the courtyard.

The old concubine leaned on the embroidered pillow and leaned on the Luohan bed in the Mingjian. Dongmei sat on the side with her body slanted, gently massaging the old concubine's feet.

Lin Yi sat on the Arhat bed next to the old concubine, with lowered eyes and a solemn expression.

Lin Lixiang and Lin Guixi were sitting in the armchairs on the east side, with tears in their eyes and some red and swollen eyelids.

Seeing that the old concubine hadn't spoken yet, Lin Lixiang pulled Lin Guixi and knelt down for the old concubine: "Grandmother, please save my mother!"

Lin Guixi's tears rolled down his nose: "Grandmother, Han Yuniang hates our mother deeply. My mother is dying now, and my father asked Han Yuniang to take care of my mother. If something happens to my mother..."

The old concubine sighed, and then said: "Don't worry, now the Li family in Ezhou is famous and powerful in the court, and your uncle is the favorite of Emperor Yongtai, the prince will not really do anything to your mother. !"

Her natal nephew, Li Qingze, the eldest uncle of the Lin Yi brothers and sisters, is now the minister of the Ministry of War, the emperor's favored minister, and has power in the court. As a county king who is suspected by the emperor, how could Lin Tao easily feud with the Li family because of Princess Li? ?
After hearing what the old concubine said, Lin Yi, Lin Lixiang and Lin Guixi breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Yi said bitterly: "Grandma, what happened today was all caused by Lin Jia, we can't let him go!"

The old concubine took a sip of black tea, and then slowly said: "The queen mother asked me to go to the capital to accompany her after the New Year. When I leave, I will bring you three brothers and sisters with me. Lixiang and Guixi should be promised." I'm dead, I went to Beijing to see each other, and Ah Yi is escorting my younger sister to Beijing."

She put down the teacup, lowered her eyes, and said: "In Qingzhou, you have your father protecting him. When I get to the capital, I want to see. Lin Jianeng has three heads and six arms, and he can fight against the Li family of Ezhou!"

Lin Lixiang took the old concubine's hand, and said coquettishly, "Grandma, you can't be so cheap, Lin Jia, can you make him feel uncomfortable first?"

The old concubine smiled: "I have planned for a long time, to arrange two housemaids for Lin Jia!"

Dongmei, who was massaging the old concubine's feet, immediately pricked up her ears, her heart pounding: Is the old concubine going to give me to the second son?

Although the old concubine and her three grandchildren are discussing how to get rid of Lin Jia, Dongmei has her own ideas. She thinks that the emperor is the biggest in the world. Since the emperor has taken a fancy to Lin Jia, the old concubine and Li Jia can what to do?
So she is very optimistic about Lin Jia!
Thinking of this, Dongmei hurriedly smiled and stood up slightly, bowed her knees and saluted: "I am willing to live and die for the old concubine!"

The old concubine smiled and said, "Okay, Dongmei is one of them!"

Hearing this, Dongmei tried her best to suppress her joy, and bowed her knees in a calm salute.

Lin Lixiang glanced at Dongmei, and saw that she had a radiant complexion. She was wearing a white silk jacket with a vertical collar and a black lilac-colored woven gold skirt. What about the other one?"

Chunhua listened to it, thinking it might be her, her face was a little hot, her heart beat a little faster, she was both happy and scared, she was really uneasy.

The old concubine thought for a while, and said: "There is a servant girl named Yu Aimei, who is in charge of the inner courtyard, Mrs. Xia, and she is very beautiful. Give it to Lin Jia too!"

When Chunhua heard this, her heart fell into the bottomless abyss in an instant, and she stood there silently, without speaking for a long time.
