concubines are respected

Chapter 76

Although the respondent in the room did not show his face, the boy called him his master, presumably he was the doctor Tang that Master Huiming was talking about.

Su Xian originally thought that Dr. Tang, who is highly skilled in medicine, must be about the same age as her father, but at this time, she didn't want to hear the voice of a young man.At such a young age, she has such exquisite medical skills, which brought her father back from death, Suxian became more and more curious.

Xiaoxiang got his teacher's consent, bowed to Suxian, and led them to the main room very politely.

Pushing open the door, the front wall that comes into view is not like the portrait of a Bodhisattva that should be hung in an ordinary Buddhist temple, but a beautiful landscape painting.Suxian walked forward, but her eyes stayed on the landscape painting for a long time, unwilling to leave.It's not how the painter is, but it feels like the scenery in this painting seems to have been seen somewhere.The more you look at it, the more familiar it becomes, but you can't remember when it happened.

Seeing that Suxian was staring at the portrait in a daze, Xiaoxiang said proudly, "Miss Lin, your teacher is good at painting, right?"

"Oh, is this drawn by Doctor Tang?" Suxian turned her body sideways, glanced at Xiaoxiang in surprise, and replied.

"It's natural. The master said that the painting is the scenery of his hometown. It's a good place. The scenery is a bit more beautiful than this Qinglong Mountain." Xiaoxiang said with a smile as if offering a treasure.

Suxian was about to speak, but there was a steady and slow voice from the inner room that didn't match the young man's voice, "Xiaoxiang, since you have a guest, why don't you serve tea quickly!"

Xiaoxiang stuck out his tongue mischievously, raised his eyes to look at the inner room, and replied respectfully, "Yes, this disciple will serve tea to the guests."

Immediately, Suxian was invited to sit down at a very simple wooden table, and quickly stepped back, presenting fresh jasmine tea.

Listening again at this time, although the voice was young, it faintly revealed the thick and steady feeling of an elderly person, and Suxian's curiosity was completely aroused by this Doctor Tang.

"Doctor Tang, Suxian is being polite. Dare I ask if my father is in the room?" After coming in for so long, I only saw Xiaoxiang and heard Doctor Tang's voice, but my father remained silent. Can't help asking softly.

"Miss Lin, Master Lin has just administered the medicine and is adjusting his breath. Please don't speak for now. Miss, please sit down for a while, and then I can meet your father." While speaking, Dr. Tang strode out from the inner room.

Suxian saw that this person was about 20 years old, although his five outlooks were not handsome, they were decent.It's just that he is wearing a long gray coat that doesn't match his age. What's more interesting is that this person is young, and his walking posture and gestures are very mature. If you don't look at his face, just from his clothes, words and deeds. People will definitely think that this person is an elderly man in his sixties, who would have expected that he is only in his twenties.

"So that's it." Suxian replied lightly, and looked up at Doctor Tang again, but she chuckled amusedly by his strange appearance of pretending to be old.

Seeing Suxian laughing out loud, Dr. Tang's originally soft complexion suddenly tightened up, and he said in a very slow voice, "Miss Lin, you are so strange, why did you see me before you even said a few words, but first Are you laughing?"

Suxian suddenly realized that her disrespect was inappropriate, she immediately suppressed her smile, and blessed Dr. Tang, "Suxian is rude." Even so, there was still an unconcealable smile in her voice.

Yanzi at the side is not as cautious as Suxian. Seeing Doctor Tang's expression, he simply said quickly, "Doctor Tang, no wonder my lady laughed. I only blame you for being in your prime, why did you put on such a face?" Looks like an old man. Don't say my lady laughs, even the slaves can't help it. Hehe!"

After finishing speaking, Yanzi also chuckled lightly.

Seeing the non-sarcastic smiles on the faces of the master and servant, Dr. Tang's fair cheeks flushed suddenly, and he replied sullenly, "Young or not, it's just a stinky skin, why should you care too much about it. "

Seeing Doctor Tang's embarrassing expression, Suxian was worried that he would be too rude and annoy him, so she immediately coughed softly, tried to suppress her smile, and said to Yanzi seriously, "Swallow, Hugh is so rude, don't hesitate to tell Tang The doctor apologizes."

"No need, she's just telling the truth, why do you want to make an apology." Doctor Tang raised his hand generously, obviously not fussing with Yanzi.

At this time, a familiar voice came from the inner room, "Doctor Tang laughed at me, the little girl is rude and rude, but you don't care about her."

When Dr. Tang heard the words, he smiled noncommittally and did not respond.

At this time, Suxian stood up from her seat in surprise, and strode towards the inner room, "Father, father, you are really much better."

Looking at the energetic father in front of him, with all the sickness on his face gone, Suxian approached and took his arm affectionately, and walked to the seat beside him.

After her father was seated securely, Suxian took two steps back, and then she gave Lin Mo a big gift, and her eyes immediately became moist.

Thinking of last year when he quietly went to visit his father in the east courtyard, he couldn't even finish his sentence, but now he can walk freely, Suxian was deeply moved, "Xian'er pays respects to father."

Lin Mocheng's eyes were also slightly moist, seeing that Suxian's face was ruddy at this time, and her height was also a bit taller than last year, so she responded very comfortingly, "Xian'er, get up quickly." At the same time, he wanted to get up and help Suxian.

But Suxian hurriedly said, "Father, please sit down, Xianer has a gift for you." Then, she glanced sideways at Yanzi, Yanzi understood, immediately opened the package containing brocade shoes, and took out the pre-sewn brocade shoes , handed over.

Suxian got up, walked to Lin Mocheng, squatted down, carefully took off the cloth shoes on her feet, and put on the brand new shoes in her hand, with a satisfied smile on her face, "It just fits, this The soles are made by Cui Yana, and the uppers are made by Qian'er, do you still like it?"

Lin Mo Cheng Dayue, looking at the new shoes on his feet, felt a burst of warmth in his heart, got up and tried to walk a few steps, and said with a smile, "Xian'er made it with his own hands, and my father naturally likes it. Very good, very good !"

The scene where the father and daughter were in harmony was very warm, Doctor Tang and Xiao Xiang quietly retreated without knowing when.

Sitting beside Lin Mocheng, Suxian talked about the whole family coming to Qinglong Temple to pray for Concubine Yuan. When mentioning the imperial palace, the smile on Lin Mocheng's face suddenly faded, and he said with a serious expression, "Xian'er, Although my father has recuperated in the temple for many days, he has heard a little about the incidents in the capital. I heard that you and Lan Er have been listed as the five princes and concubines to be elected?"

"Father is right. Our whole family moved back to the old house for a temporary stay, just to wait for the election." The fifth prince's concubine selection is a major event in Beijing, and it is not surprising for his father to know, Suxian replied.

After receiving the confirmation, Lin Mocheng's face became more serious, and he was silent for a while, before he said in a deep voice, "Xian'er, you...do you really want to marry into the royal family and match the fifth prince as a concubine?"

Su Xian was slightly stunned, seeing that her father's expression was not a casual question, and in his slightly gloomy eyes, it seemed that he had objections to the marriage.

Suxian exhaled softly, and said in a low voice, "Father, Xian'er is not willing, and Qian'er is not willing to marry the Fifth Prince." Although the words were extremely light, the tone was very firm.

Lin Mocheng heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the words, "I feel at ease as a father." After speaking, he paused for a while, fixed his eyes on Suxian, and lowered his voice subconsciously, "Xian'er, Remember, no matter what, you must never marry the Fifth Prince as your concubine!"

Although Suxian had no intention of being interested in the fifth prince, her father's expression was so dignified, as if there was something else hidden, Suxian asked softly, "Don't worry, father, Qian'er has written it down, but...but why did father deliberately confess?" , is there something hidden that Xian'er doesn't know about?"

Lin Mocheng sighed heavily, "It's a long story..."

Having said that, after a brief silence, Lin Mocheng seemed to have made up his mind, and said to Suxian seriously, "Xian'er, you have grown up, and it is time for you to tell you the past as a father. Your mother Zhang Qirou It's not a lowly maidservant, but a descendant of a famous family. It was only because her family was murdered by an adulterer that her family was ruined and she was forced to sell herself as a slave. After going through untold hardships as a father, I finally found your mother's whereabouts. Expose the identity of the daughter of the guilty minister, and as a father, you dare not tell others the true identity of your mother. This makes your mother marry into the Lin family only as a slave. It is precisely because of this that your mother and daughter are despised Look, I have been wronged. I am ashamed of your mother and daughter for my father..."

Speaking of the past, Lin Mocheng's mood dropped a lot.

But Suxian didn't show surprise, her beautiful face was as calm as water, and she said to Lin Mo gently and peacefully, "Father, you don't have to blame yourself, Qian'er is not wronged, and mother never said that she was wronged. Back then, you concealed your mother's life experience in order to protect her safety, and there was nothing wrong with this move."

Suxian was so calm, which was beyond Lin Mocheng's expectation, "Xian'er, you, why are you not surprised, did your mother mention the past to you?"

Suxian smiled slightly, "Mother never revealed anything to Qian'er, but Qian'er met someone not long ago?"

"Who? Qian'er, who did you meet?" Lin Mocheng hurriedly asked.

"This person is Zhang Chen'an, the grandson of the late Zhenyuan General Zhang Tingyuan." Suxian uttered these words softly from her red lips.

Lin Mocheng's excited face flushed immediately when he heard the words, he pulled Suxian's wrist, and said incoherently, "So, Qian'er, Qian'er...you know?"

"Well, father, my cousin recognized the jade bracelet my mother left for Xian'er, and told Qian'er everything about that year. Qian'er knows, and Qian'er knows everything." Suxian choked up and said, There was a sparkle in the spirit eyes, and then he briefly described how he met and recognized his cousin that day.In order to avoid his father's worry, he deliberately bypassed the fire in the lamp building.

"Okay, okay!" Lin Mocheng said comfortingly after listening to Suxian's words, "my father knows that the descendants of the Zhang family are alive and well, so I feel relieved. Over the years, my father has never stopped searching The whereabouts of the descendants of the Zhang family have been found nothing, unexpectedly, now there is another spring, good!"

"Father, you don't want your daughter to marry the fifth prince. Is it possible that the unjust case of the Zhang family was related to the fifth prince?" Suxian finally returned to the right.

Lin Mocheng glanced at Suxian appreciatively, "Xian'er is becoming more and more intelligent. You are right, the Fifth Prince was indeed inseparable from Zhang's unjust case back then!"
