The road to seizing the concubine is destined to be paved with blood and human lives.
The dispute between the two factions lasted six years.
In six years, Lin Feilu has grown from a cute baby who is not over the waist to a thirteen-year-old Pingting girl. Even Lin Wei, who was only holding her thigh and drooling, has become a nine-year-old girl. Girl, know how to love beauty.
In the past, the undercurrent between Lin Ting and Lin Qing was only noticed by her and Song Jinglan, but at this point, Lin Jingyuan was as slow as Lin Jingyuan found something wrong.
Although the two factions have never met each other in battle, and even maintained a superficial peace, no matter the front or the harem, the secret smoke of gunpowder has enveloped all the people in it.
After Lin Jingyuan grew up, his temperament has not changed at all, he is still as free as before. He has been working hard to restore the relationship between his elder brother and his third brother. Both of them nodded their heads every time, but afterwards they still do whatever they want. .
Lin Jingyuan worriedly asked Lin Feilu: "Do you think the two of them will fight in the future?"
Lin Feilu felt that according to Lin Ting's temperament, it was probably impossible.
But it's not good.
After so many years, Lin Ting's tenderness was stained with silence, and the whole person looked very gloomy, and her always soft eyes were also obscured by a thick mist, making her unable to see what he was thinking.
He really didn't want to fight, but after so many years, has he changed his mind?
Lin Qingzhi's Lan Yushu's temperament has not changed, but occasionally glances over, there is a startling look in his eyes.
But no matter how they change, they still love Lin Feilu as always.
Lin Ting will send the small animals rescued occasionally to Mingyue Palace to raise her. There used to be an animal ring building next to the flower field where there were only two small wooden houses. Sometimes Lin Ting would come and sit in it. The animals lay on his feet, on his knees, in his arms, and on his shoulders.
Only then will he smile sincerely, as he did before.
Lin Feilu often goes to the East Palace, holding the kites, marbles and small wooden horses he made, and pestering the dignified prince brother to play with her. The prince can't hold her back, every time he screens out the palace and secretly plays with her. .
She can't do too much, the only thing she can do is to let them have a happy and relaxing time occasionally in this battle for a family.
Lin Jingyuan especially couldn't understand the two elder brothers: "What can the emperor do? I'm tired and uncomfortable. I can't sleep because of laziness. I don't want to give it to me!"
Lin Feilu sighed, "It would be nice if everyone thought like you."
Of course, Lin Jingyuan only dared to spit out these words in private. Once heard by Concubine Xian, he was beaten up without saying anything, and he was kept in confinement for half a month, making Lin Jingyuan very angry.
Last year, when Lin Ting became an adult, he had sealed the king of Qi, built a mansion outside the palace, and no longer lived in the palace. Lin Qing is an adult this year, but still lives in the East Palace. The two did not need to go to school anymore. One lived outside the palace and the other lived in the palace. The number of meetings suddenly decreased.
Lin Feilu had been there when the Qi Palace was first built. She originally thought that according to the temperament of the big emperor, she should have a yard dedicated to feeding animals.
As a result, there were no animals in the Qi Palace.
Lin Feilu thought about returning the small animals he once saved. Anyway, he doesn't need to live with Concubine Ruan, he can always raise animals at will.
Unexpectedly, Lin Ting refused.
He said: "I can't take care of them, you can keep them."
Lin Feilu felt that Brother Dahuang had indeed changed.
This change made her feel a little uneasy, but she couldn't help it.
She was worried about the future of her two brothers, but Lin Jingyuan still ate well and slept well, and began to watch Qi Wangfu look forward to his own feudalism two years later. Recently, I heard that Emperor Lin had intentions to choose a place for him, and he was suddenly so excited that he couldn't wait to take Lin Feilu out of the palace to investigate the site.
Listening to what he meant, Lin Feilu felt that he wanted to build an amusement park.
Over the years, she has been familiar with going out of the palace. Since Lin Nianzhi got married, she has reason to go out and play wildly, scouring the streets and alleys of Kyoto.
I thought I hadn't seen Lin Nianzhi for a while, and after leaving the palace, he went straight to Du Mansion.
Lin Jingyuan complained: "The eldest sister's temper became worse after she got married. What's nice to see. Go by yourself, I'm going to choose the land!"
After speaking, he jumped and ran away.
The carriage brought Lin Feilu to the gate of Du Mansion, and the guard at the gate saw the five princesses getting off the carriage and hurriedly greeted them to salute. Lin Feilu asked as he walked in, "What is the eldest sister Huang doing?"
The little servant looked a little embarrassed, and he hesitated after entering the court: "If you go back to the fifth princess, the eldest princess is not in the house."
Lin Feilu glanced at him: "Where did you go?"
While talking, Du Jingruo walked out of the hall.
The boy in Tsing Yi is now a young man, just like the husband Lin Nianzhi expected back then.
Lin Feilu called him: "Brother-in-law."
Du Jingruo gave a salute, and then said warmly: "The fifth princess is here to find Nianzhi? She moved back to the princess mansion some time ago, and she is not here now."
Lin Feilu understood as soon as he heard it: "You quarreled again?"
A helpless smile appeared on Du Jingruo's face.
Lin Feilu asked, "What's the reason for this time?"
Du Jingruo wanted to say something and stopped, but in the end he didn't say anything, but said: "If the five masters go to Nianzhi, please bring me a sentence. Mother's meaning is not what I think in my heart, she doesn't need to mind."
Lin Feilu nodded at him, then turned to the Long Princess House.
The long princess mansion was built in the year Lin Nianzhi and Jin. This is the rule of the Dalin imperial family. When the prince and princess reach adulthood, they must build a mansion outside the palace. However, Lin Nianzhi married a couple after he had married, and stayed with Du Jingruo in Du Mansion. The Long Princess Mansion had only a few guardians, and most of the time it was empty.
However, it was obvious that Lin Nianzhi regarded this place as her natal family, and every time she quarreled with Du Jingruo, she would pack up and move back.
After Lin Feilu entered the mansion, he followed the maid to the entrance of the courtyard, and the maid gave a notification, and Lin Nianzhi's angrily voice came from the room: "See you or not! Sweep out all the Du's family with brooms! This princess is a princess. Nothing!"
Lin Feilu smiled and asked, "I'm not seeing you either?"
There was no sound inside, and it took a while before Lin Nianzhi's unhappy voice came out: "What are you doing outside if you don't come in!"
Lin Feilu told the maid to step back, opened the door and walked in. When he entered the room, he saw Lin Nianzhi lying halfway on the soft couch and eating fruit to solve the nine chains. When I heard the movement, I didn't lift my eyelids, but muffled and said: "Why are you out of the palace again?"
Lin Feilu sat down across from her, looking at the extremely complicated nine-chain in her hand, "I came out with Brother Jingyuan."
A fierce light suddenly appeared in Lin Nianzhi's eyes: "What about the others! Did they come together? Ask him to come over, so I just beat him to reduce the fire!"
Lin Feilu: "..."
She stretched out her finger to block Lin Nianzhi's movement, changed the direction of one of the nine links, and immediately untied the ring with a click.
Lin Nianzhi irritably threw Jiu Lianhuan aside: "If you don't play, you won't play! I haven't solved it for a day, but you will solve it as soon as you come!"
Lin Feilu grinned: "You are not thinking about it, how can you untie it? But, why did brother-in-law bother you?"
When Lin Nianzhi heard the words brother-in-law, he went crazy: "You are not allowed to call him brother-in-law! I declare that he is not your brother-in-law from now on! I want to get along with him!"
Lin Feilu: "You have to say this once a year."
Lin Nianzhi: "...it's true this time!" She gritted her teeth with anger, and said angrily: "Do you know what his mother said? She said I can't give birth to a child, and she said she would give him a concubine! Let me be more generous! If you can't give birth to yourself, don't stop others from giving birth!"
Lin Feilu shares the same enemy: "It's too much! How can this be!"
Lin Nianzhi nodded again and again: "Yes! I can't give birth to that? I obviously don't want to give birth! If I want to give birth, I will give birth to a polo team every minute!"
Lin Feilu: ".........not necessarily so."
She understood that the eldest sister had encountered a birth problem that had been inevitable for girls since ancient times.
She comforted for a long time, and then asked, "That brother-in-law also meant the same?"
Lin Nianzhi paused and said awkwardly: "That's not true. He said just let me be happy, and he won't accept concubines for his heirs."
Lin Feilu: "Then why are you angry with him?"
Lin Nianzhi glared at him: "It's not because of marrying him, I can be so angry?! He is the culprit!"
Lin Feilu: "...Well, logical full marks."
Lin Nianzhi complained about it for half an hour, and finally felt a little more at ease, not as irritable as before. Looking at the little five who picked up the Nine Links, he suddenly asked: "You are also thirteen this year. According to the rules, the father and the emperor should also choose a husband and son for you."
Lin Feilu was so scared that he almost broke the nine chains.
Lin Nianzhi completely forgot that she was still complaining about marrying, and asked her very excitedly: "Do you have someone you like?"
Lin Feilu shook his head frantically: "No no no no!"
Lin Nianzhi held her head and looked at her, and stretched out a finger to hook her chin like a **** brother: "Our little five, now they are getting longer and more beautiful now. The eldest sister is excited when she looks at her, and she doesn't know what will happen in the future. Who is cheaper."
Lin Feilu: "..."
She suddenly remembered something: "It's been three years since Xi Xingjiang went to the frontier, right?"
The Xi family has been stationed in the frontier for generations, and Xi Xingjiang went to the frontier army to experience three years ago. In the future, he will receive the seal of General Xi, and both the Xi family and the court attach great importance to his training.
Lin Feilu didn't know why she said this suddenly, and nodded.
Then Lin Nianzhi smiled and said, "Didn’t he give you a jade pendant before he left? Do you know what it means for a man to give jade? I heard Jing Ruo say a few days ago that Xi Xingjiang might return to Beijing this year. Are you back?"
Lin Feilu: "?"
She didn't want to be shocked, but said quietly: "Does the eldest sister who didn't like me think I like it?"
Lin Nianzhi: "...That's right. Forget it, he is not worthy of our Xiao Wu, who is Shen Yuluoyan and Yuehuahua."
Lin Feilu quickly exposed the topic: "I heard that the queen empress is choosing the prince's concubine for the prince's brother."
Lin Nianzhi has been living outside the palace for the past few years, focusing on his marriage. He feels very little about the battle to seize the grandfather. He nodded when he heard this, "I also heard about it, saying that he chose the granddaughter of the prime minister. It is estimated that the imperial decree of marriage will be issued soon."
Dalin has always had a left and right prime minister, and the left prime minister is the father of Concubine Ruan Gui. In those years, because of the dominance of the Nguyen clan, the right prime minister and the prime minister were severely suppressed and could not speak much in the court. In the past two years, because the two factions of the prime minister were fighting, the faction of the prime minister on the right took the opportunity to gradually fight against Ruan Xiang.
Si Xiang's granddaughter is called Si Miaoran, and she is also a famous daughter in Beijing. Although Lin Feilu has never seen her, she has heard of this woman, gentle, elegant, courteous, and talented.
Lin Nianzhi chatted a few rumors about Si Miaoran that he heard, then turned around and said: "Seeing that the prince is about to marry a wife, but Qi Wang hasn't moved yet, and the Ruan family can really sit still. I don't know whether to choose. What kind of celestial being, I have chosen for so long.
At this point, getting married has nothing to do with personal happiness, it's just a tool used by the family to consolidate power.
Starting from the power of the Ruan family, it is natural not to let Lin Ting marry easily, but it is estimated that it will be a matter of the past two years.
Lin Feilu didn't want to be out of the palace and worried about these two brothers, so he quickly turned the topic back to Lin Nianzhi.
Lin Nianzhi really started to curse Du Jingruo again...
When Lin Feilu listened, she felt that the eldest sister Huang became more and more temperamental after she married, and it was entirely Du Jingruo's habit.
I took a bite of dog food for some reason.
She stayed until the evening before leaving. Lin Jingyuan was sitting on the carriage outside the house. Zheng Meizi looked at the map she had collected today and began to imagine how the house should be divided.
As soon as Lin Feilu left the house, he saw Du Jingruo pacing in the afterglow.
Lin Nianzhi was still holding her hand and said goodbye reluctantly. When he saw Du Jingruo, he immediately pulled down his face, shook his hand, and turned into the house.
Lin Feilu secretly made a cheering gesture at Du Jingruo. He nodded and smiled, looking at the half-covered mansion gate, with a helpless smile in his eyes.
Although Lin Nianzhi looked angry, he obviously left the door for him.
As Du Jingruo walked all the way into the courtyard, Lin Nianzhi's door was also ajar. He walked to the door, but didn't push the door in, only tapped the door twice.
Lin Nianzhi's angry voice came from inside: "What are you doing!"
He sighed slightly and said softly, "Niannian, come home with me."
After a while, a dull voice came out: "Why are you going back, do you look at you as a concubine?"
He still whispered softly: "If you don't accept a concubine, it's enough to have thoughts."
After a while, the door was pulled open. Lin Nianzhi stood inside with red eyes, sniffing and shouting at him: "Du Jingruo, listen to me! If you make me angry again, I'm going to run away! Do you know? ! Run away, so you can never find me again!"
He nodded: "I remember."
Lin Nianzhi: "Humph!"
He smiled and took her hand, "Go home."
Lin Nianzhi turned his head away, obviously still unwilling to relieve his anger: "My feet hurt! I can't walk! I'll go back in a few days!"
Du Jingruo looked down at her feet wearing white silk embroidered shoes, and said softly, "I will carry you back."
Even after being married for so many years, being a husband and wife for so many years, and getting acquainted with each other in every position, Lin Nianzhi realized that he would still be moved by his gentle tone.
She blushed on her cheeks, and said awkwardly: "Who...who wants you to carry it!"
Du Jingruo smiled, suddenly leaned over and hugged her sideways.
Lin Nianzhi was so frightened that he hugged his neck, staring blankly at the romantic mole at the corner of his eye.
Hear him softly say: "Then hug. I want to go home."
