[Red Mansion] The adopted son of the Lin family

Lin Ze's understanding of the eleventh prince was basically based on hearsay, and now that he really met him, he didn't feel much disgust.Just looking at the pale face of the Eleventh Prince who didn't even have a trace of blood, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart: Look at this, it's true that the Eleventh Prince is weak.

But since the eleventh princes have taken the initiative to get close to him, Lin Ze is not embarrassed to ignore him, because he said with a shallow smile: "I have seen the eleventh princes."

"Often I heard my father talk about Mr. Xiao Lin's outstanding demeanor. When I saw you today, it really is so." Shui Qing said, then took Lin Ze's hand and smiled at the two emperors: "Father, mother, I and Mr. Xiao Lin Although it is only the first time we met, but I feel like an old acquaintance in my heart, I also ask my father and mother to allow me to take Mr. Xiao Lin to sit with me for a while."

The queen glanced at Lin Ze and saw that he was not unhappy, so she smiled and said, "It's hard for the two of you to hit it off at first sight. If that's the case, just sit down for a while. Don't keep Mr. Xiao Lin for a long time, let his father worry about it." .”

Shui Qing and Lin Ze left the Kunning Palace one after the other because they resigned from the emperor and empress.Seeing that the figures of the two of them were getting far away, the queen withdrew her reluctant gaze, looked at the emperor with a smile and said, "This child is very popular, not to mention that Zhan'er is very close to him, even if Han'er and him met for the first time today, they are also very close." So speculative." As he spoke, he felt sour for some reason.

"It's just, it's a pity that he hasn't had a mother to take care of him since he was a child. I really feel..." By the time I finished speaking, tears were already falling, and I was choked up silently.

The emperor hastily stretched out his hand to wrap the empress' thin shoulders, listening to the empress's words, he also deeply felt that he owed Lin Ze a lot.He only comforted him in a warm voice: "Don't be too sad, after all, Lin Qing still treats him with a loving father's heart, and he is protected by me and you, so he doesn't have to suffer anymore."

"It's just that Han'er is a child who rarely socializes with people in the past. Today, he is so proactive that even I am a little surprised." He laughed, "It must be Ze'er's ability."

Hearing this, Rao even the emperor laughed.He couldn't help clapping his hands and laughed: "That's right, the brotherhood is harmonious, it's the best thing." When he said this, he seemed to think of something, "I think about it, Zhan'er also loves her two younger brothers very much. In the future... It can't be better." The emperor with smiles in his eyes laughed again and again, although he didn't explain what he said, the empress and empress knew it very well.

But it was said that Lin Ze followed Shui Qing into the house, and stepped on the threshold with his back foot, the little eunuch serving beside Shui Qing immediately closed the door quickly.Lin Ze was startled by the sound of closing the door, and when he looked up at Shui Qing, he saw his expression was calm, not at all uncomfortable as he closed the door and talked in broad daylight.

Since the master's family was like this, Lin Ze couldn't say anything, so he had to sit down and bow his head in silence.

Seeing Lin Ze'an sitting quietly at the bottom, Shui Qing looked at it for a long time, and then said, "Lord Xiao Lin is indeed a good-looking talent. It's strange that even Prince Bei Jing often talks about you when he enters the palace." He said, He handed over a cup of tea in his hand, and said with a smile: "This is the lotus leaf and lotus seeds harvested this summer, and the tea is boiled with the dew on the bamboo leaves harvested in early spring. Master Xiaolin, don't dislike it, and compare Not as expensive as anywhere else."

Lin Ze hurriedly said that he didn't dare, took a few sips, and only felt that the taste was light. Although there was a bit of lotus seed fragrance, it didn't suit his taste.Looking up and seeing Shui Qing looking at him with a smile, he had no choice but to put down the teacup and said with a smile: "This minister is a common man, such fine tea should be eaten by someone as noble as His Highness, but this minister It was ruined."

As soon as Lin Ze finished speaking, Shui Qing chuckled twice, and said with bright eyebrows: "If Mr. Xiao Lin is a layman, how can we be like this. This tea is nothing, it's just eating. It's just for fun. The tea Master Xiao Lin usually eats must be very expensive, and the tea here cannot be poured into the eyes of Master Xiao Lin."

Lin Ze felt a sense of disobedience in every sentence he said, and it was not easy to interrupt, so he just lowered his head and stopped talking.

Shui Qing put the tea cup in his hand aside, and said: "I heard that Mr. Xiao Lin and my third brother are very friendly?"

"Weichen and the third prince do have a relationship on several occasions, but they can't live up to His Highness' saying 'befriend'."

"Master Xiao Lin is too humble, but what he said is not true. Usually, when the third brother comes back, he always tells a lot about Master Xiao Lin. Even though I have never met Master Xiao Lin, but I hear Listen to it a lot. If you tell me a joke, I’m afraid there will be calluses in your ears.” When he said this, it seemed very funny, and he didn’t care about Lin Ze’s expression, he just laughed on his own.

Shui Qingyuan's body is very thin, since he knew how to eat, he already knew how to take medicine.He is only one year younger than Lin Ze, but his stature is slightly tall, but because of his thin body, he is very thin.At this moment, the son just laughed a few times, and two touches of blush appeared on his fair skin.

Seeing him laughing, Lin Ze rubbed his hands on his chest, and seeing his blushing face, worried that he couldn't take it anymore.Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly heard a shout, and the closed door was pushed open from the outside.

As soon as Shui Zhan came in, Shui Qing half-raised his head to look at him.He was exhausted from laughing just now, his chest felt tight, his breath was short of breath, and a few tears came out of his eyes.At this moment, he raised his head to look at Shui Zhan, his watery eyes were very moving.

Lin Ze stood in the shade, so he didn't care much about it.Shui Zhan didn't see him for a while, but saw Shui Qing's face was flushed, and he was clutching his chest, as if he was in extreme pain.He hurried over to help him, and said repeatedly: "It's broad daylight, why did you shut yourself in the house again. If you don't like to be served by others, you should keep someone by your side anyway. Your health is not good, if you What's wrong with being alone, but what's the matter?"

Although the tone of these words is urgent, the concern in the words can be heard by everyone.

Shui Qing pursed her lips and smiled, "Third brother still thinks of me as a child, I've grown up. I feel uncomfortable watching them surround me every day." As he spoke, he shook hands with each other. After holding Shui Zhan's hand, he smiled again: "Third brother, sit down first and try my tea here, it's the most comfortable way to cool off."

Shui Zhan was just going to get tea, but Shui Qing had already raised the teacup one step ahead of him.Seeing him like this, Shui Zhan had no choice but to take a sip from his hand, and said with a smile: "It's hard for you to be so elegant, this lotus seed is the most refreshing, and it's the best thing for you to eat. Just don't just eat it Tea, I just came back and heard that you don’t use anything in the morning. I don’t know how the people around me are doing bad things. If you don’t punish them, you just neglect your duties all day long!” As he spoke, his piercing eyes flashed Scanned around the room.

"Zell?"

When he saw Lin Ze, Shui Zhan was stunned for a moment, and it took him a while to react.

Hearing Shui Zhan calling Lin Ze in a low voice, Shui Qing, who was very close to Shui Zhan, had a dark glint in his eyes. It lasted only for a moment, and he acted as if he had never heard of it before. He just smiled and said: " The third elder brother always talks about Master Xiao Lin's demeanor, today when I went to pay my respects to my father and mother, I happened to meet him, so I invited Master Xiao Lin to have a gathering."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to pull Shui Zhan to sit down.Just stretched out his hand, Shui Zhan had already walked to Lin Ze and sat down next to Lin Ze, with a very intimate look on his face.Shui Qing retracted her hands into her sleeves, pinched her knuckles hard, and her knuckles turned white.But there was a gentle look on his face, and he said with a smile: "I was just talking about the third brother with Mr. Xiao Lin, and it happened that the third brother came over."

"It's hard to be such a Qiao Zong'er. I was thinking about introducing you one day, but today you met by yourself." Shui Zhan smiled, and was about to stretch out his hand to pull Lin Ze when he made a move. Ze had already stood up, with a calm expression on his face, and he didn't even give Shui Zhan a look.

"The minister has been here for quite some time, and it's time to go back. The two princes must have something to say, so the minister will leave first."

Shui Qingyuan didn't intend to keep him, so naturally he let him go after a few words of politeness.Du Shuizhan listened to him, and wanted to persuade him to stay, but he couldn't open his mouth after all.I just watched Lin Ze go out, and after a while, the figure gradually disappeared, and then I said "I have something to do" and left.

Shui Qing sat on the seat, pursed her lips silently, the look in her eyes changed, and she became more and more quiet.

"Why did you just leave now, and haven't said anything yet?" Shui Zhan finally stopped Lin Ze on the water corridor, and before he could say a word, Lin Ze's expression was very cold, and the following words seemed like It's like being blocked, unable to say anything.

Lin Ze is not stupid, seeing Shui Qing's actions and listening to Shui Qing's words, how can he not see that every sentence is aimed at him.However, thinking of Shui Zhan being so intimate with Shui Qing when he entered the door, his chest felt tight, and he was too lazy to wait, and just wanted to go back early.

"It's getting late, I should go back."

"There is still such a relationship between you and me?" Shui Zhan said while holding Lin Ze's hand without allowing Lin Ze to resist. "I'll take you out."

"Why did you come to the palace today?" Shui Zhan was a little curious, he knew that Lin Ze would not have taken the initiative to enter the palace if the emperor hadn't summoned him.This lazy man, on weekdays, he would rather give up his breakfast and wake up with a pinch.If you want him to take the initiative to come to this palace again, he will refuse.So Shui Zhan only asked this question.

Lin Ze gave him a sideways glance, and said calmly, "When the year is over, Yu'er will be old enough." After saying this, there was a bit of reluctance.

Shui Zhan let out a muffled laugh, secretly thinking that Lin Ze is an eager girl.Sui said: "It's about time, but Erlang from the Pei family has to wait a little longer."

Sure enough, Lin Ze became even more depressed when he heard it.In Lin Ze's eyes, Daiyu was still very young. At such an age, she would be betrothed to someone else, and she would have to have children after passing through the family. How could it be beneficial to her health.Lin Ze wondered if he should find some time to have a good talk with Pei Zijun. Daiyu's body was not in the best shape, and she couldn't bear to have children at the age of fifteen or sixteen.

Seeing that Lin Ze was lost in thought, Shui Zhan held Lin Ze's hand tightly, but his heart seemed to be overflowing.

Just now in the room with clear water, he could see clearly that Lin Ze's expression was so cold, he must be unhappy.As for why he is unhappy... Shui Zhan, who has a much more delicate mind than Lin Ze, and who awakened earlier than Lin Ze, can naturally guess.

Thinking of Lin Ze's uneasy expression because of jealousy, Shui Zhan felt much happier.
