fierce fox

.

It stared at the Buddhist beads on its feet and wanted to make a hole out of this thing, it really wanted to fight.

At this moment, the Proton Mansion is peaceful, but it is not the case in other places.

Once the night was over, all the aristocratic families knew about the absurd things that happened that night, and each head of the family inevitably warned the younger generations of his own family not to follow suit, and remember not to run into trouble again at this time.

The emperor said that he didn't know who would believe Wu Nazi's usual actions, as long as he was willing, he could clearly understand which pair of chopsticks each family used today.

He usually tacitly allowed Gongsunying to find fault with Wu Nazi, but he didn't expect this to hold back a big move, waiting for things to become serious, and then logically kept Gongsunying in Beijing.

Anyone with a heart can see that this is not because of the Wu family, all this is obviously pushing this northern female general into the pit from the very beginning!

Gongsun Ying had a great reputation on the battlefield in the northern border, as a generation of women, she was able to suppress the frontier for many years.

And he is also extremely kind to the soldiers of the garrison, and usually hangs around in the tent and drinks wine together when he has nothing to do.

Therefore, her status in the hearts of soldiers in the north is sometimes higher than that of her father.

Every time she returns to the capital, the female relatives in the palace or the aristocratic family rush to introduce her husband, and even the queen wants to marry her under the emperor's order, so that she can stay in the capital, but she does not want to marry her. He mercilessly refused.

In this way, everyone knew that the daughter of Gongsunjia's four children was a tough nut to crack.

It's no wonder that the emperor waited to cut her knife, but this knife didn't seem to be heavy handed, it was more like a light reminder.

But that was enlightening enough.

Since the Gongsun family was established in the frontier, the Yue clan no longer ran rampant, and the Xiongnu also restrained.

In the final analysis, the father and daughter should be most grateful.

Especially people like Lin Xu from various allied countries who were struggling in the Western Regions had to find a chance to visit General Gongsun out of reason.

Thinking of this, he turned over and got out of bed, put on his clothes and prepared to go out, and discussed with Uncle Liu what to bring with him.

The white fox on the bed opened his eyes, looked at the Buddhist beads on his lap with seemingly boundless disgust, then at Lin Xu, jumped on the window sill with a soft snort, opened the window and ran away.

Lin Xu: ... (So wronged)

After all, Uncle Liu is also a martial arts practitioner. After a day, the blood from the trauma has dissipated and he looks better.Hearing what Lin Xu told him about the night, his eyes sank, and he sighed, "I only die for the country on the battlefield, so why return the corpse wrapped in horse leather."

But no amount of blood from frontier soldiers could wipe away the emperor's heart.

"I just saw that General Gongsun knelt as soon as he said he would kneel. Compared with General Lin back then, he knows how to be warm and cold."

"General Lin? Didn't he die on the way back from the expedition? It is said that the Great Wei Emperor adopted his adoptive son to Prince Rui, and specially granted him the throne." Lin Xu was puzzled.

Uncle Liu's eyes darkened, a flash of coolness flashed across his face, he sighed and said, "Young master will understand the reason behind this later." After that, he stopped discussing this matter.

"General Gongsunnv has lived in the Western Regions for a long time, and I am afraid that she is not used to the refined rice and fine grains of the Central Plains. This gift does not need to be too expensive, so as not to make suspicious people, you can bring a few jars of highland barley wine and waxed venison leg to Gongsun's family. , presumably the iron lady will like it."

Lin Xu responded and went to prepare.

After Lin Xu left, Uncle Liu looked in the direction of General Lin's mansion and was silent for a long time.

The dead are gone, but the living will never forget.

And when Lin Xu took a long time to pack up the presents and came to General Gongsun's mansion, he found that he was not the only one present, as well as the Fourth Prince and King Yucheng.

The three of them seemed to have predicted that he would come, without any surprise, the fourth prince waved to him, and said with a smile: "Ah Yi said that the young master will come to the general's mansion today, it is true. The young master will come as soon as possible." , and what gift do you bring?"

Gongsun Ying couldn't accept it when she heard it, she gave him a sideways glance, and said, "Mr. Lin brought this for me!"

After finishing speaking, he opened the wine jar with glowing eyes and smelled it non-stop, smiling like a flower.

But this flower, with iron thorns, is not easy to mess with.

Lin Xu was really relieved at this moment. Before, he always felt that giving the girl some highland barley wine and venison leg meat was a little outrageous. Unexpectedly, Uncle Liu knew people's hearts better than him. appearance.

Lin Huaiyi, on the other hand, was lazy and out of shape, nestled on the grand teacher's chair as if he hadn't woken up, and his drunken look made Lin Xu wonder if he was going to another building to find beautiful girls with good singing voices up.

Seeing Lin Xu, he chuckled lightly, "Young master is late."

Lin Xu was a little embarrassed, thinking that he was indeed favored by others in this matter, so he should run to the general's mansion more diligently, but this morning he dawdled with the little white fox for a while, and because he didn't have Uncle Liu to help him find things for a while, It looks like it's a bit late.

He cupped his hands at Lin Huaiyi: Thank you, my lord, for your help yesterday. Lin Xu's lack of manners made me laugh.Immediately, he made oars to the fourth prince and Gongsun Ying.

The fourth prince laughed loudly: "My lord, you don't have to listen to the prince's nonsense. If this matter does not have the Proton House, it would be really difficult to make a big fuss. Speaking of it, the main credit for this is still your lord."

☆、Chapter 11

Lin Xu replied politely: "It's also thanks to Uncle Liu who taught me to be a low-key person and not to compete with others, so I can help everyone this time."

Because if Uncle Liu had admitted earlier that he was hurt by the Wu family, and Lin Xuruo had confronted others head-on with his youthful rigidity, there would be no further incidents.

According to the Wu family's influence in Beijing, it is not difficult to deal with him, a sojourner thousands of miles away from home.

The best result is to play fifty boards each, and then act as if nothing happened.

Hearing this, the three of them knew that Mr. Lin had already figured out the reason, so they stopped talking and called Lin Xu to see the famous swords and swords in the Gongsun Mansion.

When several people were walking towards the inner courtyard, King Yucheng slowed down his pace as if intentionally or unintentionally, and slowly walked side by side with Lin Xu.

The fragrance in his sleeves appeared and disappeared from time to time, scratching people's hearts itchy.Lin Xu wanted to get closer to hear more, but didn't dare.Today's King Yucheng looked much more energetic than he was in the palace last night. He should have rested well, and he was a little romantic.

When he walked down the steps, he gave Lin Xu a light hand, and when Lin Xu realized it, he let go, acting as an upright gentleman who didn't look sideways.

And Lin Xu was led all the way by this seemingly non-existent provocation.

In fact, Lin Xu's nature is quite deserted compared to northern men, and he treats people with courtesy and courtesy on weekdays, but he also doesn't like to get too close to people, and he doesn't like the banquets in the frontier fortresses that shout for drinking and eating meat.

He prefers to quietly hide in his own courtyard, read books, practice kung fu, and play with the little ones he raises for a while, which is enough for a day.

But when King Yucheng was by his side, he always had to suppress the urge to get close to him, to touch him regardless of etiquette, to hold him in his arms, to wrap his hair around his fingertips, and to smell his fragrance .

Could it really be those strange dreams?

Go back and recite the mantra several times.

Lin Xu's face was hot, and she couldn't help but slow down a few steps.

Better stay away, lest you cross the line.

"Mr. Lin, it seems that you don't come out often on weekdays. What are you doing in the mansion?" Mo Yunji turned his head and asked with a smile.

"Hmm..." Lin Xu paused.

"It's basically just practicing kung fu and reading books. There's nothing special about it."

"I heard that most men in Saibei like martial arts but don't like reading books. Mr. Lin is quite different from them."

As he said that, he glanced at Gongsun Ying and Lin Huaiyi, who was like a fool behind him. He felt that the two of them were wielding sticks and guns all day long, and the other's whereabouts were uncertain, which made him feel a little headache.

"Then what books have you been reading recently?" Mo Yunji seemed curious about Lin Xu.

Lin Xu also answered truthfully: "I haven't been in contact with the ancient scrolls of the Central Plains for a long time, so I don't know much. Recently, I was fascinated by Tai Shigong's Shiji.

It is really astonishing to be able to complete such a grand masterpiece under such adversity. "

"Okay, read the history to learn from it, and know the past to learn from the present. Those who are good at books will surely achieve great things." Mo Yunji bowed his head and thought for a while before continuing, "I have the original edition that was rewarded by the former emperor in my house. , I will find someone to send it to you next time."

Lin Xu felt a little moved when he heard it.

For those who love books, if they can get the original rubbings of the scrolls, they will be as excited as a painter who gets the original version of the painting he loves.

It's just...why does the fourth prince care so much about him?

He felt that to the fourth prince, he was just an insignificant role.And no reward for no merit.

So for a while he didn't know whether to thank him or decline.

While thinking about it, Lin Huaiyi said sourly, "I asked you before and you didn't give it, why are you so generous now?"

Mo Yunji laughed: "You want it from me? You want to go to the Pinhong Pavilion of Zuihualou to brag about it after you go there. Before bragging, you should read the book. Didn't you get given it by Xu Taifu's concubine last time?" Has it been dismantled?"

Gongsunying suddenly laughed when he heard this, "Floating life is like water under ice. I and Meihua are both whiteheads. King Yucheng's ability to compose poems by himself has been spread to our Saibei military camp. It doesn't sound like a violation. Yucheng The king is also a person with profound skill."

Lin Huaiyi curled his lips in disgust: "Isn't it because I drank too much, and I was caught and questioned by that little pedant, and I have the same virtue as his wooden father."

Mo Yunji smiled and shook his head, "You, read more books. Listen to Jingwei Hall when you have time, but don't make Master Xu dizzy anymore. It's not easy for the elderly."

Amidst the fourth prince's sighs and Gongsunying's burst of laughter, a strange feeling suddenly grabbed Jian Linxu's heart.

A picture suddenly flashed in front of his eyes, a young man who was not yet a weak crown was sitting in front of the desk, reciting ancient poems in his mouth, but his eyes were staring at the paper kites in the sky outside, as if he was in Cao Ying and his heart was in Han.

Carrying on his back, he unconsciously recited "Floating life is like water at the bottom of ice, and plum blossoms and I have two white heads", and immediately ate a violent chestnut on the head.

The boy immediately held his head and stared angrily at the person beside him.

The man next to him was older, with handsome eyebrows and dark eyes, and a clear expression.

Wearing a cyan robe, he bowed his head and laughed, cursing: "Silly fox, you only know how to go out to play all day long, and you will recite it wrong when you say 'floating life is like water on the bottom of ice, people don't know how it flows day and night', don't even think about releasing paper kites today. I finished my stuff."

Hearing these words, the young man held his head aggrievedly, withdrew his eyes from running away, and stared at the man in front of him helplessly, looking extremely pitiful.

The man shifted his eyes somewhat unnaturally: "Anyway, you have to finish memorizing first, it's useless to say anything"

After that, he sat on the chair next to him and flipped through other books.

The young man found that his tricks were ineffective, so he approached the man unbelievingly and looked at it for a long time.

Everything came back to life in spring, and the man's lips were more colorful than the peach blossoms outside. The young man looked at it, and leaned close to peck on that mouth.

Then the tips of the green-robed man's ears turned red quietly.

At this moment, a piercing pain suddenly hit, pulling Lin Xu's thoughts back to reality.He pressed his nails into the palm of his hand, and his face suddenly became pale as paper.

Fortunately, Gongsunying grabbed the fourth prince and told him to continue talking about anecdotes and anecdotes in the capital, and King Yucheng didn't seem to notice that something was wrong with Lin Xu for a moment.

Once the pain is over, it will be normal again.

But Lin Xu always felt a little strange.Whether it's the usual dreams or the images that flashed just now, everything is too real, as if it existed in the world, and it's more like he was reminiscing the past Qingfengjiyue for one of them, The sweetness and sorrow of the two.

But he asked himself in the past ten years, except for this year, he has never traveled far to the Western Regions, let alone where he saw the scene in his dream.

And the person in this picture... He looked at Lin Huaiyi beside him. Now Lin Huaiyi's bones were fully grown. Although he looked romantic, there was a faint gloomy aura in his bones, as if he had been trapped in pain for a long time and could not be relieved.

And the worry-free young man in the dream, with handsome features and beautiful eyes, without any impurities like white snow, who moved everything with a smile, how could it be the same person?

He smiled self-deprecatingly, shook his head and followed the pace of the two people in front of him.

Lin Huaiyi's eyes were firmly locked on him without seeing behind him.

"He...does he remember something..."

The petals blown by the breeze fell lightly on Lin Xu's shoulders, as if all the unspoken emotions were released at the touch of a button.

Although Gongsun's family is a general, they also have a lot of calligraphy and paintings, and there are even some rare editions on the market that don't even have rubbings. Lin Xu felt distressed looking at it.

The two are like-minded and cherish each other. Looking through the calligraphy and paintings in this house, they have the heart to move the house.

Gongsunying looked at the two men who were like wolves and tigers, and said proudly: "If you don't let you take some back today, I'm afraid you will move here tomorrow. My father said, just take what you like. Anyway, I won’t watch it here.”

The fourth prince is fine, although he is not favored and no one often favors him, but he still sees some treasures on weekdays.

But this was the first time for Lin Xu to see the room full of paintings and ink, and she could feel her own intense heartbeat all at once, like the heartbeat of a girl meeting the lover of her dreams.

He saw the collection of poems by the great calligrapher of the previous dynasty, the handwriting on them was full of pen and ink, and it was magnificent;

All he saw were rare items that were rarely seen in the market, but he did not expect that General Gongsun, a military general, would actually have a lot of research on calligraphy and painting.

Lin Xu suppressed his heart that was about to jump out, and flipped through the calligraphy and paintings in front of him one by one, feeling hungry like a person who hasn't drunk water for three days.

In Saibei, there are many antiques from the Central Plains, and occasionally business travelers from the Central Plains bring some calligraphy and paintings. These paper objects are not easy to preserve and cannot withstand the wind and sun.

Besides, the frontiers are heavy on martial arts, and there are few people who like ink paintings as much as Lin Xu, so Lin Xu has not seen many Central Plains writings so far, let alone the treasures hidden in the royal family.

"It seems that the young master is going to watch here for a while, ah Yi, you stay with me, let's go to the next door to look at the sword first." Mo Yunji looked at Lin Xu with admiration and said, he let Lin Huaiyi stay and let this boy do more The meaning of contact with pen and ink.

"Okay," Lin Huaiyi responded.

Although Mo Yunji himself likes the things in this house very much, his main purpose today is to see the sword made by the most famous blacksmith in the capital. It is said that this sword cuts iron like mud, and Gongsun Ying spent a lot of money and said Bought with all the good words.

Although there is no change in the frontier, it is easier to prepare for a rainy day than to be forced to meet the enemy.

What's more, the second and third prince brothers have been secretly contacting border countries, even the emperor was a little alarmed.

No one is stupid. Although the capital usually regards the countries of the Western Regions as vassal states or barbarians, if whoever wins over the most powerful people in the Western Regions, the one who is most likely to have the last laugh.

The Western Regions will always be the last assassin's back arrow.

Gongsun Ying took the fourth prince to the next room, and the only sound left in the whole room was the rustling of papers flipping through and the friction of clothes.

Standing behind Lin Xu, Lin Huaiyi looked at his washed white robe, the skeleton of his thin shoulders stood out, and felt pain in his heart.

Lin Yiqing, who was still a general at the time, was half a head taller than the boy in front of him now, and his years in the army made his bones strong and clear.

Moreover, the General's Mansion is not short of anything, and has what they want, and it will not be like the Proton Mansion today. If Lin Huaiyi didn't send them some supplements, it would be difficult to find good things.

Besides, "I... always drink a lot of blood..."

Thinking of this, the mighty fox lowered his head in shame.

☆、Chapter 12

Lin Xu didn't know that the person behind this had already gone from distress to self-blame. He was staring at a painting in his hand, and the trembling of his fingertips, which he tried to suppress, revealed the turbulent waves in his heart at the moment.

In this painting, the boy with crooked smiling eyes, dressed in a crescent-colored gown, with a jade pendant around his waist, is exactly the boy in his dream!

And his jade pendant... He turned around suddenly and looked at Lin Huaiyi, which was the one around his waist normally.

And the pen in the lower left corner of the painting...

The three characters "Lin Yiqing" were clearly and casually written.

At first, Lin Xu thought that he was disturbed by the recent dream and was mentally ill, so he made a mistake, but when he took a closer look at the painting, it was clearly written the real name of General Wei Lin back then.

But...how could this be...

Everyone knows that the adoptive son who escaped when General Lin was killed, the current King Yucheng, is still young.So how did the general know what King Yucheng would look like ten years later?

And so it seems that the two of them are indeed in my dream.But why the prince and general in the dream are in such a state, even if they have lived a little bit, the prince should not be this age.

But why do I dream of them?Is it because General Lin passed away unfortunately before King Yucheng grew up, and entrusted me with a dream to help him fulfill his unfulfilled long-cherished wish?

And why is the painting of the great general in General Zuo's mansion?

How many unexplained things are there?

Lin Huaiyi was taken aback by his sudden turn around, and hurriedly took a half step back, pretending that he was not very close just now, and asked righteously: "What's the matter, young master, what did you see?"

It was only then that Lin Xu thought of his impoliteness in a hurry, his face flushed, and he explained: "Lin Xu's rudeness has disturbed the prince. I just saw a painting, and I lost my mind..."

Then he brought the painting in front of Lin Huaiyi and said, "I saw the person in this painting just now, he looks like a prince. It's just..." He looked at Lin Huaiyi, wondering whether to continue talking.

"Young master, you want to ask General Lin how he can draw what I look like when I grow up, right?"

Lin Huaiyi chuckled, "I don't know the reason. I was young at the time, so I didn't understand these things, but what I do know is that when I was a teenager, I didn't look like this, but I didn't look like the person in the painting." It's so watery and pleasing."

Lin Huaiyi pointed to the painting and continued, "Who knows, maybe my adoptive father drew the image of me in his imagination based on my appearance when I was a child.

"It's said that three years old is old." The fox started talking nonsense.

"I, an outcast from the mountains picked up by my adoptive father, can have such a good appearance in his eyes. It's a pity that I didn't live up to my expectations, and I failed my foster father's deep hopes, and I looked a little crooked."

"The prince was not like this when he was a teenager..." Lin Xu thought silently, so the things in the dream are really just dreams?

When the two walked out of the room, Lin Huaiyi glanced at the painting helplessly. His adoptive father actually gave the painting to General Gongsun. No wonder he couldn't find it anyway.

He still remembered that during that time, Lin Yiqing had won a battle and returned to Beijing to return to his command, and had a relatively long rest period.

So he hugged Lin Huaiyi, who was forcibly turned into a child, to wander the streets every day, watching lanterns and buying gadgets, and also...woke him up in the middle of the night to listen to a little song...

This unscrupulous general with a human face and a beast heart put Lin Huaiyi aside for the girls in the building to play with.

The poor fox can't change back to his original appearance in front of people at will to justify his name, so he has to open a pair of big watery eyes for the girls to squeeze here and there, and be a cute mascot.

Lin Yiqing, the instigator, was sitting beside him happily drinking wine, watching Xiao Lin Huaiyi gnashing his teeth and pretending to be cute.

Of course, the Right General, whom no one dared to mess with, would still be beaten up by the irritable fox when he returned home.

He was also bored at home during the day, so he drew a lot of pictures and wrote a lot of words. This is one of the pictures on a whim. When he met everyone, he would boast that he dreamed of his son in the middle of the night and made this picture. Every day, he boasted that he was like a barefoot fairy, and he was short of setting up a stall at the gate of the city to tell people's fortunes and read palms.

Later, the emperor couldn't bear Lin Yiqing's half-immortal look of not doing his job properly, so he quickly found a reason to send him back to the Western Regions.Probably because before leaving, Lin Yiqing gave away some of what he had drawn during this period.

That seemingly stolen leisure time later became the most cherished memory in Lin Huaiyi's heart.Whenever I think about it, my heart is always soft like a feather.

Thinking of Lin Huaiyi touching the cold jade ring that he had been wearing for many years, his whole body suddenly revealed a warmth and peace that was rarely seen in ordinary times, like first melting snow, like mountain spring water.

At this moment, he overlaps with the handsome young man in the painting after a few years.

The eyebrows and eyes are similar, not gloomy.

The two walked to another room, which was full of weapons that Gongsun Ying usually collected for nothing.There are heavy knives that can be used to decapitate the enemy, and there are also jade swords that are placed as decorations. In short, there are all kinds of weird things.

Mo Yunji held a seemingly ordinary sword in his hand. The whole body was pitch black, without carvings or gems, without any fancy features, but the blade revealed a chilling aura, and it could be easily In an instant, the throat bone was broken.

Presumably this is the one Mo Yunji was looking for today.

Although the fourth prince doesn't know anything about ironware, he also knows that this black sword has become very famous recently, so naturally he still wants to take advantage of Gongsun Yingdong's wind to observe it.

And this will make the aristocratic families in Beijing flock to it, and the sword that Gongsunying spends a lot of money is indeed a treasure that is hard to see in ordinary times.

Lin Xu glanced at the weapons in the room, but his eyes were attracted by a bow hanging beside it.

This is an improved composite bow, one bamboo and one wood are closely connected, and the backing is made of the tendons of wild animals. After the combination is firm, it is painted with the same color paint and then strengthened. A great deal of effort has been put into it, and it can be seen that it has been a few years, but it still feels oppressive.

Lin Xu slowly walked up to the bow, and involuntarily took the bow down and held it in his hand. The moment he touched the bow's heavy feeling, Lin Xu held it upright due to the familiar feeling that came from nowhere. When you open the bow with your thumb, it instantly pulls into the shape of a full moon. If there are arrows on the bow, it is afraid that the arrow can penetrate the beam of the house!

"it is good!"

The cheers came from the door, not from the three people in the house, but from Gongsun Jia.

"I didn't expect this aunt prince to have the demeanor of a general. She really didn't hear it. This is completely different from the rumors." Gongsun Jia said loudly, watching Lin Xu walk over with great admiration.

People in Gongsun's family always walked upright and sat upright, and never concealed their likes and dislikes. Looking at Gongsun Jia's appearance, the way Lin Xu drew his bow just now caught the eyes of this lifelong military general.

"General Gongsun praised it." Lin Xu cupped his hands: "My father taught me a little bit when I was in this country, but Lin Xu's learning skills are not superficial. Just now, I just took advantage of my good bow."

"Young people are scary, haha." Gongsun Jia patted Lin Xu's shoulder with a smile, and continued to ask, "Is your mother doing well in Gushi?"

"Mother is fine"

Since Lin Seqing married to the Gushi Kingdom, she became a queen and cared about the people. She brought the Central Plains weapon manufacturing and pottery and cloth art to the Gushi, which made this small frontier town develop rapidly in just a dozen years. The queen who is capable of writing and martial arts is in awe.

With her, under the blessing of the Great Wei court, the aunt could avoid the plight of being wiped out by the Huns and Yuezhi, and it also gave Great Wei an additional ally in the north to fight against other countries.

"The little girl back then has also grown up, and the children are already this big." Gongsun Jia looked at Lin Xu with long eyes, as if she had gone back to many years ago and saw the high-spirited young general, his little sister, and At the beginning, he vowed to be worthy of the prince of Jiangshan Sheji, and the three of them could turn the capital city upside down, and everyone's voices and smiles are vivid in my memory.

But now, the most dazzling star in the capital city has long since fallen, and his body is long buried in the ground;

The younger sister who is ignorant of the world traveled thousands of miles to support the country's burden;

The prince who vowed to stand upright became the emperor who was proficient in power and not angry.

And how many sweet joys and gnashing hates have been hidden in the past over time and are no longer mentioned.

The dead are long gone, and the living are like husbands.

Gongsun Jia looked at the bow in Lin Xu's hand and continued: "There are two sets of this bow, and it was given to us by our master before I and Yi Qing left the division.

It took him half a year to find materials and make each pair, and the rate of fire and ordinary bows were completely incomparable.There is no one else in this world. "

Gongsunjia's eyes were full of nostalgia: "After the frontier fortress found Yi Qing's bow, I went to all the craftsmen who couldn't make the same bow string that was broken.

And the master has passed away long ago, so I put away the bow,

This time, it has been released for so long. ''

When Lin Xu heard this, he quickly put the bow back upright. Since it was such a valuable thing, he was too embarrassed to keep holding it in his hand.

However, curiosity drove him to ask one more question.

"Where is General Lin's broken bow now?"

"In the General's Mansion" Lin Huaiyi said lightly

"I put it away"

That's right, after all, it is General Lin's relic, so it is natural to keep it well as the adopted son.

It's just that the vague but ungraspable something wrong disturbed Lin Xu a little.

"Forget it, it's rare for the proton to come to the mansion as a guest, so I won't talk about it. If there is anything you want to see, you can continue to watch it. Your mother often came to my mansion to play. Tell Ah Ying what you like. As long as She can give whatever she wants, and the old man will not bother you."

After finishing speaking, Gongsun Jia left neatly, as casually as if he just passed by to say hello.

"My father is always so elusive," Gongsun Ying said with a smile.

Then the three of them picked out their favorite weapons and looked at them. Naturally, they didn't really want anything. They went out together after watching it.

☆、Chapter 13

After the four of them came out, they realized that it was past time. General Gongsun sat in the front hall and waited for them, leaving them to have a simple meal.

But there is no deliberate display of delicacies from mountains and seas. They are all delicious home-cooked meals, and they look clean.

Except for Lin Xu, the other four people at the table drank some wine and chatted about homework.

Listening to General Gongsun chatting about interesting military affairs when he was young, he didn't discuss too much recent political affairs, and the atmosphere was relaxed and harmonious.

Obviously, he didn't have much contact with them before, but Lin Xu could feel the warmth that had been missing since entering Beijing.

"Little baby, did your mother ever tell you about her stay in the Central Plains before she got married?" Gongsun Jia asked Lin Xu.

"I never said that," Lin Xu replied honestly

"I rarely heard her mention the Central Plains from my mother. I only said that I had an uncle who was very good to my mother before, but unfortunately died young. Even before entering Beijing, she never said that my uncle was actually a well-known figure in the Central Plains. General Lin."

He had heard of Lin Yiqing's reputation a long time ago, and knew that he had an uncle, but he never thought that these two identities would be the same person.

"Then she must have never mentioned my Gongsun." Gongsun Jia said with a smile.

Lin Xu was a little embarrassed. In fact, not only did his mother never mention General Gongsun, but he didn't even mention a single word about the current emperor. It was only when he heard what the emperor said in Jingwei Hall that day that he realized that the two should be old acquaintances.

Before he set off, his mother just mentioned that the person living in the Lin family's mansion in the capital is her brother's adopted son, but she has never seen it before, so she is not familiar with it.

If you really encounter something that Uncle Liu can't settle, and then take her handwritten letter to the Lin Mansion, the other party should help her because of her face.

But if you have nothing to do at ordinary times, don't disturb people's cleanliness. According to rumors, that person is a hard-to-serve master who doesn't want to deal with people.

After listening to these words, Lin Xu stayed quietly in the mansion.

Except for sending some things to the Lin Mansion at the end of the year, he never took the initiative to find anyone, and even on the day he went to give gifts, he didn't see King Yucheng who was always in a hurry.

It was the broken-arm general who took the items, and politely took out more expensive silk and satin medicinal materials in return.To be honest, there are still more things collected from Lin Fu on weekdays.

General Gongsun laughed after hearing this, and said: "Your mother told you not to take the initiative to find others, but I received a letter from your mother not long after you set off, asking me to take care of you."

Mo Yunji smiled and took over the conversation: "The queen may know that this kid Yi is ignorant all day long, and he knows how to go up the mountain to dig soil. Your mother didn't let you go to him because she told you not to get involved with him." Come on, so as not to teach the young master badly."

After that, everyone laughed.

Lin Huaiyi did not deny that, anyway, he had dug all the mountains, big and small, near the capital, and he never covered them up. He often came down from the mountains with a basket on his back and a pair of broken straw sandals.

But the emperor couldn't bear to see a prince who was humiliated on the mountain with his face facing the loess and his back to the sky all day long. He had asked him to go to court many times overtly and secretly, but it was not good for Lin Huaiyi to procrastinate on his own. Some people tied him to the court.

It was only then that Lin Xu realized why from the very beginning, the four people at the table had no sense of belonging to him, and this day he was being taken around the mansion like a junior in the family.

He has exquisite seven orifices, so he knew his mother's intentions immediately.

She put Lin Xu alone in the capital, seemingly helpless, but she contacted a reliable force in the capital in private, even if the proton mansion was temporarily bullied, she could protect him immediately.

His mother has set up a dark situation for him, so that he can protect him thousands of miles away.

After figuring this out, a warm current flowed through Lin Xu's body.It turned out that my mother had done so much in the dark, and it turned out that she was always there.

After eating this meal, Lin Xu felt comfortable all over. The openness of his father and daughter, and the gentleness and humility of the fourth prince gave him the illusion that he was at home.

Not to mention Lin Huaiyi's very intentional provocation next to him

"Little boy, the shrimps are delicious, I'll get you some."

"Young master, look at the color of this lettuce, which was just picked regularly, eat more."

"Young master, take a sip of soup, it's very fresh, I'll blow it first."

……

Mo Yunji: "...ah Yi, if you have something to say, just say it"

Lin Huaiyi coughed unnaturally and said to Lin Xu: "Anyway, you can come to me if you have anything to do in the future. In fact, you don't need to travel so far to Gongsun's Mansion. I'm not so ignorant. Those are all misinformation. Listen to me." For nothing, Mr. Lin"

Crowd: ...

Who was the person who ran away with several teachers so that he had no books to read?

Who was the one who frightened the old man when Ruan Changshi bumped into him with his face full of mud digging?

Who are the people who linger in the willows and wines of Firework Lane?

Conscience of heaven and earth, this King Yucheng is so ignorant and inexperienced that it is outrageous.

Lin Xu, on the other hand, watched Lin Huaiyi look at him with piercing eyes, took the dishes he handed over, and said with a reddish face, "If your lord doesn't mind the trouble, Lin Xu would certainly like to visit the General's Mansion more often."

Lin Huaiyi responded repeatedly with a smile: "Of course not, just come more."

Mo Yunji and Gongsun Ying looked at each other, but they didn't see each other.

This kid, he must have seen that his family is not bad, so he has some crooked thoughts!

After eating, Mo Yunji got up first to say goodbye and went back to the house. Later, Lin Huaiyi and Lin Xu withdrew the carriage while they were eating, walked back all the way, and went shopping in the nearby downtown by the way.

Although Lin Xu had gone out with Uncle Liu before, but at that time, after all, he was mainly familiar with the surrounding environment and bought some necessities along the way.

Moreover, Uncle Liu was worried about Lin Xu's health. The small gadgets on the side of the road were not allowed to be bought. At that time, Lin Xu was very greedy.

And he doesn't keep any money around him on weekdays, so he didn't think about going out to buy snacks. He was a little too noisy, and it was boring to be alone with someone he didn't know, so he stayed in the deserted Proton Mansion most of the time. .

Uncle Liu didn't like to show his face, and he basically ran back and forth between the medicinal material shop and the mansion.Just like this, she lived out the demeanor of a lady without leaving the door.

After all, he still has a youthful heart, and today Lin Huaiyi is flying him like a kite with a broken string.
