Chapter 215
Lin Jinhua was about to leave at night when he saw grapes hovering at the gate of the palace.
Putao walked back and forth, as if he had something to say to her, but he never came in until she suddenly appeared, which surprised him.
"Mother, where are you going?" Putao wondered as she looked at the little bundle she was carrying.
"Why are you here?" Lin Jinhua smiled slightly, threw the burden to the person behind her gracefully, and then said with a smile: "Are you missing your mother, or are you thinking about when you will marry a girl from the Jiang family?"
When Putao heard this, she immediately became a little nervous, and even forgot to continue asking the question just now, and hurriedly said: "Mother, my son is wondering if the girl from the Jiang family is willing."
Lin Jinhua felt strange, didn't she write a letter in private, why was she still worried about disagreeing?
He looked at his son with a sad face, thought for a while, and gave up the idea of sneaking out of the palace overnight, dismissed the people behind him, and said with a smile: "The queen mother will accompany you for a walk in this palace?"
"Thank you, Queen Mother." Putao just wanted to know how to understand his daughter's thoughts. He also asked Jiu'er and Simeng, but their thoughts were different, so he didn't know for a while. I can't decide to pay attention.
Lin Jinhua smiled slightly, and then walked slowly down the corridor with him.
The corridor is full of bright red lanterns, and the mother and son are walking slowly, very peaceful.
Seeing the slightly frowning look on his brows, Lin Jinhua asked with a smile, "Miss Jiang is a good girl..."
"Naturally she is a good girl. She is well-educated, and most importantly, she can understand me." After Putao explained, she realized that she seemed to have talked too much. She looked at Lin Jinhua with a little embarrassment and said, "Queen, Erchen just doesn't quite understand what she means now. Last time Erchen secretly mentioned to her that she wanted to be married by the emperor, but she ran away blushing."
Putao felt very puzzled, why did this happen?Does running away mean that she doesn't want to marry?
Seeing that it was because of this, Lin Jinhua couldn't help but want to knock her son's head to see if there was water in it.
She smiled helplessly: "Silly son, if she doesn't want to marry you, why is she blushing?"
"Really?" Putao looked at her suspiciously. Lin Jinhua wanted to pat the water off his head, but she could only confess: "What about the queen mother, when I was not careful, I read the letter from the two of you..."
After Lin Jinhua finished speaking carefully, she found that his ears were slightly red and he was not angry, so she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Judging from the text on the letter, Miss Jiang must belong to you, and you don't have to worry too much about it." There is nothing to worry about, as for why you ran away, a girl, you have told others that you are going to marry her, as a lady from a famous family, she is naturally more shy and embarrassed, what else can she do besides run away?"
Putao was stunned: "But Jiu'er..."
"Jiu'er was an accident..." Lin Jinhua supported her forehead. An ordinary family cannot support Jiu'er's temper. Moreover, Jiang Qingshu and Mrs. Jiang are both well-behaved families, so they will definitely not let their daughter fool around with Jiu'er. .
Putao then looked at Lin Jinhua with suspicion and said, "Queen, Qing'er, she really doesn't hate me?"
Seeing that he still didn't believe it, Lin Jinhua, who always went to bed early and woke up early, became so worried again, and simply said: "Why don't the queen mother pick her up with Mrs. Jiang into the palace tomorrow, and just talk to Jiu'er, and then the queen mother will ask her about it?" What do you mean? If she is interested, I will directly discuss your marriage with Mrs. Jiang."
When Putao heard it, she became apprehensive and excited at the same time, and nodded immediately: "Thank you, Queen Mother!"
"You're welcome, I just hope that my grape can live happily ever after with the one I love and He Meimei." Lin Jinhua bent her eyes and smiled slightly. She used to always wonder what a child would look like with a devastated person like herself. Woolen cloth?Is it just like her, who has a bit of mind and hesitation towards everyone and everything, or is she like Huai Yan, who slowly abides by herself and is indifferent to others, but she never thought that her sons and daughters have grown up to be as outstanding as they are now. Sincerity, such a belief in love.
She looked at the handsome and extraordinary son who was born in front of her, and became gentle: "It's getting late, go back and rest earlier, the queen mother will take care of you for tomorrow's affairs."
"Yes!" Putao responded with a smile, immediately saluted respectfully, and then backed away.
After he left, Lin Jinhua simply stood on the porch, looking at the breeze and bright moon, with a smile on his face, what a wonderful day it is now.
She rubbed her slightly sore waist, and finally chose to go back.
She thought, it doesn't matter if you leave the palace later, and it doesn't matter if you go to Lituo Island later, after all, nothing is more important than relatives.
She went back with a smile, but she didn't know that Zhao Huaiyan was standing in the room waiting for her.
If she really left just like that, how could he rest assured that he would definitely go with her, but he didn't expect that a grape would make her change her mind.
Lin Jinhua pushed open the door and looked at the man sitting at the table drinking tea. His gentleness and reliability made her impetuous heart calm down.
"Huaiyan..."
"It's cold outside, drink some hot tea, it's getting late, we should take a rest." Zhao Huaiyan smiled slightly, and stretched out his hand to her, motioning her to sit beside her.
Lin Jinhua smiled slightly, stretched out her hand to him, and he pulled her to sit next to her, then hugged him and kissed him lightly. The night was cold, and she needed some warmth to sleep peacefully.
For one night, everyone in the palace was filled with joy, including Jiu'er.
Although Jiu'er was saddened by Su Jingxun's departure, when she thought of Jiang Qijing, she felt as if there was a piece of osmanthus crispy candy in her heart, it was so soft and sweet that she wanted to laugh while lying down.
"Xiaojing...Qijing...Brother Jing..." Jiu'er murmured, his little face flushed with shame, he covered himself in the quilt for a long time before coming out, wrapped his neck around his neck and looked at the dark night with a smile until the middle of the night The gongs and drums sounded, and finally fell into a deep sleep.
Early the next morning, Lin Jinhua really invited Mrs. Jiang and Jiang Qingwei into the palace.
In the name of Jiu'er, Jiu'er will naturally be there.
Today, Jiu'er changed into a carmine red wide-sleeved dress with a cross-collared half skirt, a floral pleated skirt with a red belt on her lower body, a pair of delicate embroidered shoes of the same color, and a beautiful flying fairy bun. In addition to the baby fat that has faded, the whole person is no longer as cute as a child, but more fresh and elegant as a girl.
Mrs. Jiang, who was sitting at the top, saw Jiu'er coming, and thought it was Lin Jinhua's reprint, but she also had the emperor's pair of phoenix eyes on her body, and she had a gentle temperament, so she was a little less cold, rather A little more of the gentleness of the girl next door.
"The minister's wife has seen Her Highness the Princess." She hurriedly pulled her daughter beside her to stand up together, and saluted Jiu'er.
Jiu'er came over and first saluted Lin Jinhua according to the rules. After Lin Jinhua asked her to get up, she asked Mrs. Jiang's mother and daughter to get up, and said with a smile: "It's great that Mrs. Jiang is willing to come. The girl hit it off right away, and was looking for some opportunities to talk."
"It's the princess showing love." Jiang Qing smiled and blessed Fuli.
Jiu'er stepped forward to hold her hand, and looked at Lin Jinhua with a smile: "Queen, can Jiu'er take Miss Jiang to the Royal Garden for a walk?"
"Go." Lin Jinhua bent her eyes and smiled.
Jiang Qing took a peek at Lin Jinhua. Now she seems to be in her twenties, with no wrinkles on her face, but there is more wisdom and elegance in her eyes, and she looks graceful and luxurious, but she doesn't do it deliberately. Yes, it seems to be born with a majesty that makes people bow their heads hastily just by looking at it.
Lin Jinhua also saw her eyes, smiled, and saw that she blushed immediately, so she sent them off to play, leaving only Madam Jiang to talk.
Mrs. Jiang is not someone else, it was the daughter of Master Luo's family. Later, Mrs. Luo fell in love with Jiang Qingshu, so she betrothed her daughter to him. I heard that the husband and wife have been harmonious and harmonious in the past few years, which is also very good.
Lin Jinhua waited for Jiuer and the others to go far away, then smiled and said: "The Imperial Garden is beautiful, I should take Madam for a walk."
"Your Majesty, you are too polite. How can a minister's wife have such a blessing." Mrs. Jiang said hurriedly.
"Why not? If Miss Jiang becomes the daughter-in-law of the palace, what is this mere imperial garden?" Lin Jinhua laughed jokingly, but Mrs. Jiang knelt down immediately, and said, "Empress, my wife is absolutely perfect!" Don’t dare to have the idea of climbing high.”
"If the children are in love with each other, how can they talk about it?" Lin Jinhua said with a smile.
Mrs. Jiang was brought up by the serious etiquette in the big family. Hearing this, she thought that Lin Jinhua was blaming Jiang Qingwei for secretly teaching and receiving with the crown prince, and she became more and more panicked: "Mother, it's all because the courtiers and daughters-in-law are incompetent, so she was allowed to commit crimes." If you are confused, don't worry, the minister's wife will definitely teach you a lesson when she goes back..."
Lin Jinhua saw that she had misunderstood her, and hurriedly said: "My palace sees that Miss Jiang is well-bred, so there is no way to teach her daughter? And she is in love with the prince, so why is she confused? Could it be that the madam despises the prince for something? Okay? If there is something wrong, Madam said directly, I have been busy with other things all day long, so I have neglected to discipline her."
"This..." Mrs. Jiang was a little confused when she heard her say this. Could it be that the empress did not blame her daughter for going out with the prince in private?
She only found out about this in the past two days. It was her daughter who started to forget about food and drink after returning from the palace banquet. When she said that she wanted to marry the prince, she was startled at the time. She never thought that the empress would still have the idea of making a match. This...
"Your Majesty, what do you mean, you don't blame her for privately with the Crown Prince..." Mrs. Jiang blushed slightly, choking and didn't say anything. Lin Jinhua only smiled and said, "I like Miss Jiang very much, but I don't know that Mrs. Jiang sees it." Don't look down on us, Mu Jin."
Madam Jiang dared to say that she didn't like the prince, she quickly said: "The empress is joking, His Royal Highness is naturally one of the best in the world, and the minister's wife is afraid that the Jiang family's status is poor, and they are not worthy of His Royal Highness."
Seeing that Mrs. Jiang had no objection, Lin Jinhua finally laughed: "The emperor and this palace have all seen Jiang Yushi's achievements over the years, and Miss Jiang is a good girl who is one in a million. Why is she not worthy?" The above said. It’s just that I want to know Miss Jiang’s own thoughts. If she doesn’t like it, could it be that I have done something wrong and ruined the marriage between the two?”
"This..." Mrs. Jiang didn't know whether to say it, or how to say it, but the empress's upbringing and discipline of her children had always been different from those of the royal family in the it seems loose, the current princesses and princes are all first-class outstanding figures, even the young little prince is a dragon and phoenix among people, a rare good prince, she must be sincere when she asks this.
Thinking of this, for the sake of her daughter's happiness, she mustered up her courage and said, "Return to your mother, Qing'er, she is naturally willing."
……
At this moment in the imperial garden, Jiang Qingwei followed Jiu'er for a slow walk by the lake, looked up today, but it wasn't hot, on the contrary, there was a light rain in the morning, and the wind felt a little cool on her body.
Xiaoli hurriedly said from the side: "Princess, it's a bit cold here, my servant will get you a cloak."
"Yeah, bring me a note for Sister Jiang too." Jiu'er laughed.
"Yes." Xiaoli glanced at Jiang Qingwei, who was wearing a light purple long dress, and responded with a smile. Then she hurriedly retreated, and Jiu'er just happened to pull Jiang Qingwei to stop by the railing by the lake, and said with a smile: "Today The weather is really nice. If the prince and brother were here, he would definitely want to take out all the books in the study to dry in the sun, and then carefully dust off the dust on them. He loves those books more than me. "
Jiang Qingwei listened, blushing quietly, but said with a gentle smile: "His Royal Highness is an idiot and loves books very much, but he must love His Royal Highness more. After all, you are his own sister, aren't you?"
"Although that's what he said, he didn't suffer from insomnia all night because of me." Jiu'er sighed, and as he spoke, he still glanced at Jiang Qingwei from the corner of his eyes to observe her reaction.
Jiang Qingwei heard the words, and hurriedly said: "Has he suffered from insomnia?" After finishing speaking, he realized his gaffe, and hurriedly asked seriously: "Did His Royal Highness suffer from insomnia because of state affairs?"
Jiu'er shook his head: "Naturally, it's not a state matter, but now there is still Father who can help him make up his mind. He is thinking about lifelong affairs."
When Jiang Qing heard it, her face became more and more red. She lowered her eyes to look at the couples of mandarin ducks in the lake, her eyes sparkled, and she said softly: "Is there anyone you like in your Highness the Crown Prince's heart?"
"Of course there are, otherwise why is it so early in the morning that the empress mother has not slept in and invited you into the palace?" Jiu'er finally couldn't hold back her words and burst out laughing.
Jiang Qing hurriedly looked up in astonishment, and when she saw her looking at him with bright eyes, she immediately blushed and lowered her head.
Seeing her shy, Jiu'er didn't continue talking, just happened that Xiaoli brought two cloaks, one with crescent white embroidered with red plums, and the other with jade white embroidered with lilac flowers.
Jiu'er took the cloak embroidered with purple lilac flowers, tied it up for Jiang Qingwei, who was about the same height as her, and then said with a smile: "Sister Qing'er, what do you think of the prince?"
Jiang Qingwei looked at her asking such a straightforward question, her face became more and more red, and she only lowered her eyes and smiled, "Of course it's very good."
"I also think it's great." Jiu'er understood what she meant, and smiled wider, intentionally humiliating her and said: "If it's a husband, it's also great, right?"
Jiang Qingwei's face was turning red, she turned away from her and let her smile.
After Jiu'er fastened her cloak, she was about to take her forward when she saw a figure approaching in a hurry, her eyes lit up, and she said with a smile, "Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here."
Jiang Qingwei immediately looked up, and saw the bright young man who was wearing the Prince's Mansion and walking quickly.
There was a little anxiety in the boy's eyes, but the moment he saw her, it turned into watery tenderness, which made Jiang Qingwei feel as if he was in a dream. The man came from the dream with a sacred light.
After Putao quickly approached, she saw Jiang Qingwei looking at her with a flushed face, looking at her in a daze, looking at her tenderly, and said with a smile: "Qing'er, Jiu'er, why are you here?"
Jiu'er folded his hands on his chest and snorted with a laugh, "Isn't it just because we are here that Brother Huang found you here?"
"I..." Putao looked at Jiuer, who was doing bad things on purpose, and said with a smile: "Xiaojing is talking to Father in the imperial study at the moment, it seems that Father intends to let him go back to Beiyan..."
Jiu'er didn't wait for him to finish speaking, turned around and ran away. When he left, he said to Jiang Qingwei: "Qing'er, if Brother Huang bullies you, you have to tell me, I will help you vent your anger!" She made a grimace, and ran away quickly, so anxious that Xiaoli also hurriedly followed.
After they left, Putao breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the person in front of him who missed him day and night, and said, "Qing'er, I..."
"I know everything." Jiang Qingwei raised her eyes to look at him. She knew the environment the prince and princess grew up in since she was a child. She was very envious when she was a child. , I never thought that after touching it, I fell.
Not only because of his ingenuity, but also because of him, he would openly tell her his thoughts, his thoughts, and his vision for the future. The two of them seemed to be able to break all the shackles of ethics. They were together because of love, and how lucky she was to be favored by him.
Putao looked at her bright eyes and smiled: "That's good, I was worried that you would not marry me, so I turned around and left."
"So His Royal Highness stayed up all night last night?" Jiang Qingwei asked him.
Putao blushed slightly, and just looked at her fixedly: "Qing'er, you will agree to marry me, right?"
Jiang Qing was slightly shy, and wanted to lower her head and run away, but she couldn't bear him to suffer again, so she mustered up the courage to look at him with love in her eyes: "I am willing."
"Great!" Putao was overjoyed, and wanted to hug her when she raised her hand, but seeing her blushing face and the forced shyness in her eyes, she finally withdrew her hand and said with a smile: "This imperial garden is very big, I'm a Take you around."
"But doesn't the prince still have court affairs to deal with?" Jiang Qing asked slightly.
"Father said that today I am allowed to rest for a day, and there are not many court affairs today." He said with a smile.
Jiang Qingwei saw that he looked like Jiu'er when he smiled, and also bent his eyes, followed him with a smile, and walked forward together slowly. Anyway, she doesn't know what the scenery of the imperial garden is like. All she needs to know is that the person she likes By your side, no matter what the scenery is, it must be the most beautiful scenery in the world.
At a corner not far away, Jiu'er Mao was bent over, Little Li Mao was behind her, Palace Lady Mao was behind Xiao Li, a long strip of people squinted their eyes and saw Putao and Jiang Qingwei walking forward at a very slow speed, Just looked at each other.
"It seems that there will be a princess in our palace soon." Xiao Li rubbed her chin and said earnestly.
"That's great, our palace will be more lively in the future." Jiu'er said excitedly.
Xiaoli shook her head with a serious face, and said: "Princess, have you never heard of the water thrown by the married daughter? You will be thrown out soon..."
Before Xiaoli finished speaking, Jiu'er narrowed her eyes and looked at her with a smile: "It's okay, I'll throw you out, and I'll also throw you out, Xiaoli, you're not too young, shouldn't you..."
Xiao Li immediately covered her mouth and shook her head, indicating that she would not dare to talk nonsense anymore, Jiu'er then raised her hand and pretended to pinch her ears, which made her dodge immediately, then she smiled and chased after her until she reached the front of the imperial study .
When Jiu'er came, her footsteps were light, she was afraid that Zhao Huaiyan would find out, but she only stepped into the door of the imperial study with one foot, and heard the inside saying: "Jiu'er is waiting outside, without my order, no Step in."
"But father..."
"Huh?" Zhao Huaiyan said coldly, and the wine outside had to stop.
She tried hard to hear the voice speaking inside, but she couldn't hear a word, so she could only worry, could it be that the father would really not agree to this marriage and wanted Xiaojing to go back to Beiyan?
No, no, Xiaojing has gone back to Beiyan, what should she do.
Thinking of this, she became more and more anxious, and then she continued to go inside, when she saw Zhao Huaiyan had come out.
She rushed to meet her, and said with a sweet smile: "Father..."
"Little girl, I don't listen to what my father said." Zhao Huaiyan was angry. The precious daughter he had raised so hard was about to be taken away in the blink of an eye, and this person hadn't married yet. He is partial to him, which makes him a father, how can he balance it?
The more I thought about it, the angrier I became, and the angrier I became, the less I wanted to see Jiang Qijing.
Jiu'er hurriedly said earnestly: "Of course not, I want to listen to what my father says, but Xiaojing also wants to see her. Mother's house, you have to be assertive in life."
Zhao Huaiyan saw that she had moved out of Hua'er to suppress him, so he raised his hand and pinched her face helplessly, then turned his head and said to Jiang Qijing calmly: "You go out of the palace, and you are not allowed to see the princess in private again."
"Father..." Jiu'er thought that Zhao Huaiyan really disagreed, so he hurriedly said, but Zhao Huaiyan said: "The wedding date is set after your emperor brother. Before the marriage, you are not allowed to meet again, understand?"
Jiu'er was slightly taken aback, did the emperor agree?
Thinking of this, she immediately became excited. Although she won't be able to see Xiaojing for a short time, at least the marriage is over, and they will be able to meet each other in a few months at most!
She immediately smiled and said yes, and Jiang Qijing was also helpless, but the future father-in-law and precious daughter naturally should.
He also saluted and agreed, and when he left, he blinked at Jiu'er, thinking that he would not see him for a long time, he was really worried, and wondered if this naughty girl would forget himself by then, hey, that's all, anyway Is to marry back.
Thinking of this, he stepped forward and left.
Jiu'er looked at his back, wishing to follow him.
Seeing her like this, Zhao Huaiyan felt as if a piece of flesh had been gouged out of his heart, and finally understood why Lin Luzhi opposed his daughter marrying him so much.
He looked at his little baby, and finally said with a smile: "After I go back to see your mother with my father, I can fix your wedding date as soon as possible." Then I also set the grape's, so that they can really let go for a while. Time, go out for a walk, and also meet Qi Ye and that mysterious Mrs. Lin from Lituo Island.
(End of this chapter)
Lin Jinhua was about to leave at night when he saw grapes hovering at the gate of the palace.
Putao walked back and forth, as if he had something to say to her, but he never came in until she suddenly appeared, which surprised him.
"Mother, where are you going?" Putao wondered as she looked at the little bundle she was carrying.
"Why are you here?" Lin Jinhua smiled slightly, threw the burden to the person behind her gracefully, and then said with a smile: "Are you missing your mother, or are you thinking about when you will marry a girl from the Jiang family?"
When Putao heard this, she immediately became a little nervous, and even forgot to continue asking the question just now, and hurriedly said: "Mother, my son is wondering if the girl from the Jiang family is willing."
Lin Jinhua felt strange, didn't she write a letter in private, why was she still worried about disagreeing?
He looked at his son with a sad face, thought for a while, and gave up the idea of sneaking out of the palace overnight, dismissed the people behind him, and said with a smile: "The queen mother will accompany you for a walk in this palace?"
"Thank you, Queen Mother." Putao just wanted to know how to understand his daughter's thoughts. He also asked Jiu'er and Simeng, but their thoughts were different, so he didn't know for a while. I can't decide to pay attention.
Lin Jinhua smiled slightly, and then walked slowly down the corridor with him.
The corridor is full of bright red lanterns, and the mother and son are walking slowly, very peaceful.
Seeing the slightly frowning look on his brows, Lin Jinhua asked with a smile, "Miss Jiang is a good girl..."
"Naturally she is a good girl. She is well-educated, and most importantly, she can understand me." After Putao explained, she realized that she seemed to have talked too much. She looked at Lin Jinhua with a little embarrassment and said, "Queen, Erchen just doesn't quite understand what she means now. Last time Erchen secretly mentioned to her that she wanted to be married by the emperor, but she ran away blushing."
Putao felt very puzzled, why did this happen?Does running away mean that she doesn't want to marry?
Seeing that it was because of this, Lin Jinhua couldn't help but want to knock her son's head to see if there was water in it.
She smiled helplessly: "Silly son, if she doesn't want to marry you, why is she blushing?"
"Really?" Putao looked at her suspiciously. Lin Jinhua wanted to pat the water off his head, but she could only confess: "What about the queen mother, when I was not careful, I read the letter from the two of you..."
After Lin Jinhua finished speaking carefully, she found that his ears were slightly red and he was not angry, so she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Judging from the text on the letter, Miss Jiang must belong to you, and you don't have to worry too much about it." There is nothing to worry about, as for why you ran away, a girl, you have told others that you are going to marry her, as a lady from a famous family, she is naturally more shy and embarrassed, what else can she do besides run away?"
Putao was stunned: "But Jiu'er..."
"Jiu'er was an accident..." Lin Jinhua supported her forehead. An ordinary family cannot support Jiu'er's temper. Moreover, Jiang Qingshu and Mrs. Jiang are both well-behaved families, so they will definitely not let their daughter fool around with Jiu'er. .
Putao then looked at Lin Jinhua with suspicion and said, "Queen, Qing'er, she really doesn't hate me?"
Seeing that he still didn't believe it, Lin Jinhua, who always went to bed early and woke up early, became so worried again, and simply said: "Why don't the queen mother pick her up with Mrs. Jiang into the palace tomorrow, and just talk to Jiu'er, and then the queen mother will ask her about it?" What do you mean? If she is interested, I will directly discuss your marriage with Mrs. Jiang."
When Putao heard it, she became apprehensive and excited at the same time, and nodded immediately: "Thank you, Queen Mother!"
"You're welcome, I just hope that my grape can live happily ever after with the one I love and He Meimei." Lin Jinhua bent her eyes and smiled slightly. She used to always wonder what a child would look like with a devastated person like herself. Woolen cloth?Is it just like her, who has a bit of mind and hesitation towards everyone and everything, or is she like Huai Yan, who slowly abides by herself and is indifferent to others, but she never thought that her sons and daughters have grown up to be as outstanding as they are now. Sincerity, such a belief in love.
She looked at the handsome and extraordinary son who was born in front of her, and became gentle: "It's getting late, go back and rest earlier, the queen mother will take care of you for tomorrow's affairs."
"Yes!" Putao responded with a smile, immediately saluted respectfully, and then backed away.
After he left, Lin Jinhua simply stood on the porch, looking at the breeze and bright moon, with a smile on his face, what a wonderful day it is now.
She rubbed her slightly sore waist, and finally chose to go back.
She thought, it doesn't matter if you leave the palace later, and it doesn't matter if you go to Lituo Island later, after all, nothing is more important than relatives.
She went back with a smile, but she didn't know that Zhao Huaiyan was standing in the room waiting for her.
If she really left just like that, how could he rest assured that he would definitely go with her, but he didn't expect that a grape would make her change her mind.
Lin Jinhua pushed open the door and looked at the man sitting at the table drinking tea. His gentleness and reliability made her impetuous heart calm down.
"Huaiyan..."
"It's cold outside, drink some hot tea, it's getting late, we should take a rest." Zhao Huaiyan smiled slightly, and stretched out his hand to her, motioning her to sit beside her.
Lin Jinhua smiled slightly, stretched out her hand to him, and he pulled her to sit next to her, then hugged him and kissed him lightly. The night was cold, and she needed some warmth to sleep peacefully.
For one night, everyone in the palace was filled with joy, including Jiu'er.
Although Jiu'er was saddened by Su Jingxun's departure, when she thought of Jiang Qijing, she felt as if there was a piece of osmanthus crispy candy in her heart, it was so soft and sweet that she wanted to laugh while lying down.
"Xiaojing...Qijing...Brother Jing..." Jiu'er murmured, his little face flushed with shame, he covered himself in the quilt for a long time before coming out, wrapped his neck around his neck and looked at the dark night with a smile until the middle of the night The gongs and drums sounded, and finally fell into a deep sleep.
Early the next morning, Lin Jinhua really invited Mrs. Jiang and Jiang Qingwei into the palace.
In the name of Jiu'er, Jiu'er will naturally be there.
Today, Jiu'er changed into a carmine red wide-sleeved dress with a cross-collared half skirt, a floral pleated skirt with a red belt on her lower body, a pair of delicate embroidered shoes of the same color, and a beautiful flying fairy bun. In addition to the baby fat that has faded, the whole person is no longer as cute as a child, but more fresh and elegant as a girl.
Mrs. Jiang, who was sitting at the top, saw Jiu'er coming, and thought it was Lin Jinhua's reprint, but she also had the emperor's pair of phoenix eyes on her body, and she had a gentle temperament, so she was a little less cold, rather A little more of the gentleness of the girl next door.
"The minister's wife has seen Her Highness the Princess." She hurriedly pulled her daughter beside her to stand up together, and saluted Jiu'er.
Jiu'er came over and first saluted Lin Jinhua according to the rules. After Lin Jinhua asked her to get up, she asked Mrs. Jiang's mother and daughter to get up, and said with a smile: "It's great that Mrs. Jiang is willing to come. The girl hit it off right away, and was looking for some opportunities to talk."
"It's the princess showing love." Jiang Qing smiled and blessed Fuli.
Jiu'er stepped forward to hold her hand, and looked at Lin Jinhua with a smile: "Queen, can Jiu'er take Miss Jiang to the Royal Garden for a walk?"
"Go." Lin Jinhua bent her eyes and smiled.
Jiang Qing took a peek at Lin Jinhua. Now she seems to be in her twenties, with no wrinkles on her face, but there is more wisdom and elegance in her eyes, and she looks graceful and luxurious, but she doesn't do it deliberately. Yes, it seems to be born with a majesty that makes people bow their heads hastily just by looking at it.
Lin Jinhua also saw her eyes, smiled, and saw that she blushed immediately, so she sent them off to play, leaving only Madam Jiang to talk.
Mrs. Jiang is not someone else, it was the daughter of Master Luo's family. Later, Mrs. Luo fell in love with Jiang Qingshu, so she betrothed her daughter to him. I heard that the husband and wife have been harmonious and harmonious in the past few years, which is also very good.
Lin Jinhua waited for Jiuer and the others to go far away, then smiled and said: "The Imperial Garden is beautiful, I should take Madam for a walk."
"Your Majesty, you are too polite. How can a minister's wife have such a blessing." Mrs. Jiang said hurriedly.
"Why not? If Miss Jiang becomes the daughter-in-law of the palace, what is this mere imperial garden?" Lin Jinhua laughed jokingly, but Mrs. Jiang knelt down immediately, and said, "Empress, my wife is absolutely perfect!" Don’t dare to have the idea of climbing high.”
"If the children are in love with each other, how can they talk about it?" Lin Jinhua said with a smile.
Mrs. Jiang was brought up by the serious etiquette in the big family. Hearing this, she thought that Lin Jinhua was blaming Jiang Qingwei for secretly teaching and receiving with the crown prince, and she became more and more panicked: "Mother, it's all because the courtiers and daughters-in-law are incompetent, so she was allowed to commit crimes." If you are confused, don't worry, the minister's wife will definitely teach you a lesson when she goes back..."
Lin Jinhua saw that she had misunderstood her, and hurriedly said: "My palace sees that Miss Jiang is well-bred, so there is no way to teach her daughter? And she is in love with the prince, so why is she confused? Could it be that the madam despises the prince for something? Okay? If there is something wrong, Madam said directly, I have been busy with other things all day long, so I have neglected to discipline her."
"This..." Mrs. Jiang was a little confused when she heard her say this. Could it be that the empress did not blame her daughter for going out with the prince in private?
She only found out about this in the past two days. It was her daughter who started to forget about food and drink after returning from the palace banquet. When she said that she wanted to marry the prince, she was startled at the time. She never thought that the empress would still have the idea of making a match. This...
"Your Majesty, what do you mean, you don't blame her for privately with the Crown Prince..." Mrs. Jiang blushed slightly, choking and didn't say anything. Lin Jinhua only smiled and said, "I like Miss Jiang very much, but I don't know that Mrs. Jiang sees it." Don't look down on us, Mu Jin."
Madam Jiang dared to say that she didn't like the prince, she quickly said: "The empress is joking, His Royal Highness is naturally one of the best in the world, and the minister's wife is afraid that the Jiang family's status is poor, and they are not worthy of His Royal Highness."
Seeing that Mrs. Jiang had no objection, Lin Jinhua finally laughed: "The emperor and this palace have all seen Jiang Yushi's achievements over the years, and Miss Jiang is a good girl who is one in a million. Why is she not worthy?" The above said. It’s just that I want to know Miss Jiang’s own thoughts. If she doesn’t like it, could it be that I have done something wrong and ruined the marriage between the two?”
"This..." Mrs. Jiang didn't know whether to say it, or how to say it, but the empress's upbringing and discipline of her children had always been different from those of the royal family in the it seems loose, the current princesses and princes are all first-class outstanding figures, even the young little prince is a dragon and phoenix among people, a rare good prince, she must be sincere when she asks this.
Thinking of this, for the sake of her daughter's happiness, she mustered up her courage and said, "Return to your mother, Qing'er, she is naturally willing."
……
At this moment in the imperial garden, Jiang Qingwei followed Jiu'er for a slow walk by the lake, looked up today, but it wasn't hot, on the contrary, there was a light rain in the morning, and the wind felt a little cool on her body.
Xiaoli hurriedly said from the side: "Princess, it's a bit cold here, my servant will get you a cloak."
"Yeah, bring me a note for Sister Jiang too." Jiu'er laughed.
"Yes." Xiaoli glanced at Jiang Qingwei, who was wearing a light purple long dress, and responded with a smile. Then she hurriedly retreated, and Jiu'er just happened to pull Jiang Qingwei to stop by the railing by the lake, and said with a smile: "Today The weather is really nice. If the prince and brother were here, he would definitely want to take out all the books in the study to dry in the sun, and then carefully dust off the dust on them. He loves those books more than me. "
Jiang Qingwei listened, blushing quietly, but said with a gentle smile: "His Royal Highness is an idiot and loves books very much, but he must love His Royal Highness more. After all, you are his own sister, aren't you?"
"Although that's what he said, he didn't suffer from insomnia all night because of me." Jiu'er sighed, and as he spoke, he still glanced at Jiang Qingwei from the corner of his eyes to observe her reaction.
Jiang Qingwei heard the words, and hurriedly said: "Has he suffered from insomnia?" After finishing speaking, he realized his gaffe, and hurriedly asked seriously: "Did His Royal Highness suffer from insomnia because of state affairs?"
Jiu'er shook his head: "Naturally, it's not a state matter, but now there is still Father who can help him make up his mind. He is thinking about lifelong affairs."
When Jiang Qing heard it, her face became more and more red. She lowered her eyes to look at the couples of mandarin ducks in the lake, her eyes sparkled, and she said softly: "Is there anyone you like in your Highness the Crown Prince's heart?"
"Of course there are, otherwise why is it so early in the morning that the empress mother has not slept in and invited you into the palace?" Jiu'er finally couldn't hold back her words and burst out laughing.
Jiang Qing hurriedly looked up in astonishment, and when she saw her looking at him with bright eyes, she immediately blushed and lowered her head.
Seeing her shy, Jiu'er didn't continue talking, just happened that Xiaoli brought two cloaks, one with crescent white embroidered with red plums, and the other with jade white embroidered with lilac flowers.
Jiu'er took the cloak embroidered with purple lilac flowers, tied it up for Jiang Qingwei, who was about the same height as her, and then said with a smile: "Sister Qing'er, what do you think of the prince?"
Jiang Qingwei looked at her asking such a straightforward question, her face became more and more red, and she only lowered her eyes and smiled, "Of course it's very good."
"I also think it's great." Jiu'er understood what she meant, and smiled wider, intentionally humiliating her and said: "If it's a husband, it's also great, right?"
Jiang Qingwei's face was turning red, she turned away from her and let her smile.
After Jiu'er fastened her cloak, she was about to take her forward when she saw a figure approaching in a hurry, her eyes lit up, and she said with a smile, "Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here."
Jiang Qingwei immediately looked up, and saw the bright young man who was wearing the Prince's Mansion and walking quickly.
There was a little anxiety in the boy's eyes, but the moment he saw her, it turned into watery tenderness, which made Jiang Qingwei feel as if he was in a dream. The man came from the dream with a sacred light.
After Putao quickly approached, she saw Jiang Qingwei looking at her with a flushed face, looking at her in a daze, looking at her tenderly, and said with a smile: "Qing'er, Jiu'er, why are you here?"
Jiu'er folded his hands on his chest and snorted with a laugh, "Isn't it just because we are here that Brother Huang found you here?"
"I..." Putao looked at Jiuer, who was doing bad things on purpose, and said with a smile: "Xiaojing is talking to Father in the imperial study at the moment, it seems that Father intends to let him go back to Beiyan..."
Jiu'er didn't wait for him to finish speaking, turned around and ran away. When he left, he said to Jiang Qingwei: "Qing'er, if Brother Huang bullies you, you have to tell me, I will help you vent your anger!" She made a grimace, and ran away quickly, so anxious that Xiaoli also hurriedly followed.
After they left, Putao breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the person in front of him who missed him day and night, and said, "Qing'er, I..."
"I know everything." Jiang Qingwei raised her eyes to look at him. She knew the environment the prince and princess grew up in since she was a child. She was very envious when she was a child. , I never thought that after touching it, I fell.
Not only because of his ingenuity, but also because of him, he would openly tell her his thoughts, his thoughts, and his vision for the future. The two of them seemed to be able to break all the shackles of ethics. They were together because of love, and how lucky she was to be favored by him.
Putao looked at her bright eyes and smiled: "That's good, I was worried that you would not marry me, so I turned around and left."
"So His Royal Highness stayed up all night last night?" Jiang Qingwei asked him.
Putao blushed slightly, and just looked at her fixedly: "Qing'er, you will agree to marry me, right?"
Jiang Qing was slightly shy, and wanted to lower her head and run away, but she couldn't bear him to suffer again, so she mustered up the courage to look at him with love in her eyes: "I am willing."
"Great!" Putao was overjoyed, and wanted to hug her when she raised her hand, but seeing her blushing face and the forced shyness in her eyes, she finally withdrew her hand and said with a smile: "This imperial garden is very big, I'm a Take you around."
"But doesn't the prince still have court affairs to deal with?" Jiang Qing asked slightly.
"Father said that today I am allowed to rest for a day, and there are not many court affairs today." He said with a smile.
Jiang Qingwei saw that he looked like Jiu'er when he smiled, and also bent his eyes, followed him with a smile, and walked forward together slowly. Anyway, she doesn't know what the scenery of the imperial garden is like. All she needs to know is that the person she likes By your side, no matter what the scenery is, it must be the most beautiful scenery in the world.
At a corner not far away, Jiu'er Mao was bent over, Little Li Mao was behind her, Palace Lady Mao was behind Xiao Li, a long strip of people squinted their eyes and saw Putao and Jiang Qingwei walking forward at a very slow speed, Just looked at each other.
"It seems that there will be a princess in our palace soon." Xiao Li rubbed her chin and said earnestly.
"That's great, our palace will be more lively in the future." Jiu'er said excitedly.
Xiaoli shook her head with a serious face, and said: "Princess, have you never heard of the water thrown by the married daughter? You will be thrown out soon..."
Before Xiaoli finished speaking, Jiu'er narrowed her eyes and looked at her with a smile: "It's okay, I'll throw you out, and I'll also throw you out, Xiaoli, you're not too young, shouldn't you..."
Xiao Li immediately covered her mouth and shook her head, indicating that she would not dare to talk nonsense anymore, Jiu'er then raised her hand and pretended to pinch her ears, which made her dodge immediately, then she smiled and chased after her until she reached the front of the imperial study .
When Jiu'er came, her footsteps were light, she was afraid that Zhao Huaiyan would find out, but she only stepped into the door of the imperial study with one foot, and heard the inside saying: "Jiu'er is waiting outside, without my order, no Step in."
"But father..."
"Huh?" Zhao Huaiyan said coldly, and the wine outside had to stop.
She tried hard to hear the voice speaking inside, but she couldn't hear a word, so she could only worry, could it be that the father would really not agree to this marriage and wanted Xiaojing to go back to Beiyan?
No, no, Xiaojing has gone back to Beiyan, what should she do.
Thinking of this, she became more and more anxious, and then she continued to go inside, when she saw Zhao Huaiyan had come out.
She rushed to meet her, and said with a sweet smile: "Father..."
"Little girl, I don't listen to what my father said." Zhao Huaiyan was angry. The precious daughter he had raised so hard was about to be taken away in the blink of an eye, and this person hadn't married yet. He is partial to him, which makes him a father, how can he balance it?
The more I thought about it, the angrier I became, and the angrier I became, the less I wanted to see Jiang Qijing.
Jiu'er hurriedly said earnestly: "Of course not, I want to listen to what my father says, but Xiaojing also wants to see her. Mother's house, you have to be assertive in life."
Zhao Huaiyan saw that she had moved out of Hua'er to suppress him, so he raised his hand and pinched her face helplessly, then turned his head and said to Jiang Qijing calmly: "You go out of the palace, and you are not allowed to see the princess in private again."
"Father..." Jiu'er thought that Zhao Huaiyan really disagreed, so he hurriedly said, but Zhao Huaiyan said: "The wedding date is set after your emperor brother. Before the marriage, you are not allowed to meet again, understand?"
Jiu'er was slightly taken aback, did the emperor agree?
Thinking of this, she immediately became excited. Although she won't be able to see Xiaojing for a short time, at least the marriage is over, and they will be able to meet each other in a few months at most!
She immediately smiled and said yes, and Jiang Qijing was also helpless, but the future father-in-law and precious daughter naturally should.
He also saluted and agreed, and when he left, he blinked at Jiu'er, thinking that he would not see him for a long time, he was really worried, and wondered if this naughty girl would forget himself by then, hey, that's all, anyway Is to marry back.
Thinking of this, he stepped forward and left.
Jiu'er looked at his back, wishing to follow him.
Seeing her like this, Zhao Huaiyan felt as if a piece of flesh had been gouged out of his heart, and finally understood why Lin Luzhi opposed his daughter marrying him so much.
He looked at his little baby, and finally said with a smile: "After I go back to see your mother with my father, I can fix your wedding date as soon as possible." Then I also set the grape's, so that they can really let go for a while. Time, go out for a walk, and also meet Qi Ye and that mysterious Mrs. Lin from Lituo Island.
