Reborn Lin Family Funing

This day, Lin Funing got up early in the morning.No way, he slept too much last night, and he woke up before dawn.

Lin Funing stretched his waist, walked out of the wing, and twisted his waist. He was too lazy to sit in a carriage for a while, and was planning to have a radio gymnastics exercise, when he heard—"Ning'er? Why did you get up so early? What? Why don't you sleep a little longer?"

Lin Funing turned his head, and saw his mother coming out of the small kitchen on the side of the yard, frowning, looking at him with disapproval.

"Mother? Why did you wake up so early?" Lin Funing asked in surprise.

Mrs. Lin walked over, patted Lin Funing on the head, and said softly, "Mother thought you were going back to Ci'en Temple today, so I made vegetarian pancakes for you. You have such a big appetite. For a while, there is no mother and uncle Yi." Cooking for you, you must not eat well, right?"

Lin Funing laughed, seeing a plate of vegetarian cakes brought out by Mama Song from the small kitchen, Lin Funing's eyes were watery, he had a mouthful, vegetarian cakes are his favorite cakes, and only his nephew and mother made them He likes the cakes, but the vegetarian cakes are the most difficult to make, and it takes the longest time. My mother must get up in the middle of the night to make so many vegetarian cakes, and now it is not bright... at this time It must be early...

"Mother..."

"Okay!" Mrs. Lin saw that Lin Funing's eyes were red, and she pinched Lin Funing's nose with a smile, "It's not good to be a young master and still cry...Silly Ninger, let Qingguo Come out and pack up these vegetarian cakes, and after the Xiyue Festival is over, mother will make delicious ones for you."

"Okay!" Lin Funing rubbed his eyes and grinned brightly.

-

When the sun rose slowly, the side door of the Lin Mansion opened silently, and then, a carriage drove out from the side door, and quickly disappeared into White Horse Lane.

And when the carriage left the Lin Mansion quietly, Lin Deyu and Lin Fukang were entertaining guests in the main hall of the Lin Mansion.

"I thought Deyu wouldn't see me today." The old man sitting in the main hall had a smile on his face. Although he was over sixty in recent years, he was full of energy and his eyes were especially sharp.

This person is Li Yirong.

"Uncle was joking. Uncle didn't enter through the main entrance, but climbed over the wall from the backyard. Uncle must have had to do something unexpected to do such an indecent act. Although Lin's residence is now closed to thank guests, Uncle After all this, how can Deyu treat his uncle as an assassin?" Lin Deyu said very gently, but the meaning in his words was ridiculed and dissatisfied.

——At such an age, you actually climbed over the wall? !Or climbing over the backyard wall? !Want to spy on the female family members of their Lin family?Or do you want to sneak a peek at their Huawazi? !

Trying hard to suppress his anger, not immediately being arrested as an assassin and thief is already generous enough!Don't think about Lin Deyu's nice words right now!

Li Yirong laughed dryly, coughed lightly, secretly glanced at Lin Fukang who was pretending to be ignorant, and tried to save face for him in front of the junior!This Lin Deyu, just like Lin Wenzhong, doesn't know how to leave room for others.

"That... Deyu. I'm here today to tell you something."

"Please tell me." Lin Deyu said angrily.

"It's like this... Well, isn't it the Lantern Festival after the eve of the moon? I would like to trouble your wife to hold a banquet during the Lantern Festival."

Lin Deyu felt strange, "Why?"

"Find a wife for Mingyuan." Li Yirong said with a smile, "Your wife is smart and discerning. You know, it's better for a woman to do this kind of thing. I want to trouble your wife to choose a good one." Yes, I'd better go to the palace and talk to the Empress Dowager, keep the noble girl I like, and we can get engaged when Mingyuan turns sixteen next year, and we can get married when Mingyuan turns eighteen." Li Yirong said with a look on her face. Said excitedly.

But Lin Deyu and Lin Fukang on the side were silent—is the fourth prince so easy to deal with?

But in any case, this is very good news!Especially for Ning'er whose family is coveted by the Fourth Prince!

"Uncle, that's a good idea. It's hard for uncle to care for the fourth prince. If the fourth prince knows, he will be very grateful."

Li Yirong stroked his beard and sighed, "I don't think about this for him, who would think about him? What's the difference between a prince without a mother in the palace and an orphan without a father and a mother?"

The last sentence was a bit taboo, Lin Deyu didn't dare to answer.

Li Yirong did not continue, but said seriously, "Deyu, in the capital, the only one I can trust is your Lin family. I have met your wife before. She is virtuous and shrewd. You can tell from the children she teaches. If it weren't for the rules of your Lin family, I would really like that girl from your Lin family."

Lin Deyu said a few words modestly, but he was sweating in his heart. The Lin family didn't dare to talk highly of that fourth prince!

"So, this time, I will trouble your wife."

"This matter is not troublesome, but, uncle, you should know that our Lin family is just a family of low-class merchants, and even if we can invite them, they are just friends for many years..." The implication is that the daughters of those aristocratic families, rich and noble daughters, There is no way for the Lin family to invite them.

Li Yirong burst into laughter when she heard the words, "Deyu, you are too self-effacing! Don't worry, as long as your wife releases the news that there will be a Lantern Festival banquet, many people will definitely come. Alright, let me hint again that I want to find a suitable wife for your young master..." Li Yirong winked at Lin Fukang when she said the last sentence.

Lin Fukang sat pretending to be serious, but his ears were secretly red.

But Lin Deyu became thoughtful. Speaking of which, Fukang has also reached the age to discuss marriage...

Although the rich and powerful families in Kyoto are not suitable, there may be some people with appropriate status and status at the banquet that day... Well, I have to talk to Wen Niang about this banquet.

So, Li Yirong mentioned a few more things about the banquet, and got up to leave.

After Li Yirong left, Lin Fukang asked in a low voice, "Father, the matter of the fourth prince in Xizhou is making such a big fuss... Isn't this Old General Li worried that the fourth prince will be reprimanded by the emperor?"

——He still has the mood to find a future concubine for the fourth prince...

Lin Deyu thought for a while and said, "Since he has the mood to find a future concubine for the fourth prince, that is to say, the matter of the fourth prince in Xizhou is... safe and sound..."

Lin Fukang couldn't help being surprised when he heard the words, the fourth prince had no will to kill Xu Wei, the admiral of Xizhou?Still safe and sound?

-

At this time, on the canal connecting Kyoto and Xizhou, the boats were moving forward quickly.

In the study room in the cabin, a handsome and elegant boy was sitting behind the desk, writing something with a pen.

The sunlight outside poured into the study room, casting a layer of faint golden light on the young man. As a result, the originally slightly cold-breathing young man seemed very friendly at this time.

In front of the young man, there was a man kneeling. This man was about 30 years old. He was wearing armor. The logo on his waist was the word "God". He looked respectful. Although he had been kneeling for several hours, he was still respectful. Kneeling, motionless.

"General Lin Dao, get up. You have been kneeling for four hours." The handsome and gentle young man, that is, Qi Mingyuan, finally put down the pen in his hand, and looked up at the kneeling man, that is, Lin Dao.

"The last general dare not." Lin Dao whispered respectfully.

Qi Mingyuan frowned, Lin Dao, he had already made it very clear before, why is he still so stubborn?He no longer cared about using the matter of Yuxuan in white to test him.Why do you still come to plead guilty?

"Lin Dao, you want to disobey my order?" Qi Mingyuan said displeased.

Lin Dao hurriedly raised his head, "The last general dare not."

"Then get up and talk." Qi Mingyuan said, got up slowly, and walked to Lin Dao. Lin Dao hurriedly kowtowed again, and then got up and bowed his head humbly.

"You come to plead guilty, do you have something to say?" Qi Mingyuan asked.

"If you go back to His Highness, you will end up wanting to convey what the Empress Dowager told you." Lin Dao said in a low voice.

Hearing this, Qi Mingyuan turned to look at Lin Dao, what did the empress dowager say?

"The empress dowager ordered the last general, if your highness can deal with the affairs of Xizhou impartially and kill the governor of Xizhou, Xu Yun, then let me follow your highness from now on..." Lin Dao said, and then knelt down on the ground again Kowtow to salute, "Therefore, Lin Dao will serve His Highness as the master from today on! No matter the mountains of swords or seas of fire, whatever His Highness's sword points to is where Lin Dao goes!"

Qi Mingyuan was taken aback, he never expected that the empress dowager would have such an arrangement?

The so-called Xizhou incident is also a test for him?

Qi Mingyuan narrowed his eyes slightly. It seemed that he still didn't see the empress dowager thoroughly enough.

"Get up." Qi Mingyuan said, turned around, walked back to the chair and sat down, watching Lin Dao stand with his head bowed respectfully, "If there is something that needs you, I will let someone notify you, and you step back."

"Yes!"

After Lin Dao stepped back, Qi Mingyuan looked out the window, "Wu Mo, come in."

"Wu Mo greets His Highness!"

"Wu Mo, what's the reaction from the capital?" Qi Mingyuan asked.

"Returning to Your Highness, there is a court meeting in Kyoto today. I heard that at the court meeting, officials from the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Rites raised objections to the disposal of Xizhou, but Elder Wen Ge and Elder Song Ge objected, talking about the matter of Xizhou. The handling is extremely appropriate, Enke should have needed reform and other topics."

Qi Mingyuan listened, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly, two old foxes!

"So, what about the Holy Will?"

"Give the Prince Xuan a mansion, as well as gold and silver, as well as court maids and servants, all according to the prince's specifications, and at the same time, order His Highness to walk for the cabinet from today."

Qi Mingyuan put his forehead in his left hand, thoughtfully, he should have received the reward from the Prince's Mansion, and the cabinet is walking?It's interesting.

The official position of the cabinet is equivalent to a second-rank official. He can participate in major political affairs, but he has no decision-making power. Generally speaking, the cabinet is an official position that only prince candidates can have, or some special royal relatives, such as King Yi. !

And now, there are already princes, third princes, second princes, and him in the cabinet of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

All the princes got the cabinet walk... So, that is to say, for the prince, he and the other two princes are competitors?

The emperor's decision seems to be to watch a good show, and also to balance the growing power of the literary family?It is also for the war in northern Xinjiang...

"Wu Mo, did Qi Xiu make any moves?" Qi Mingyuan changed the subject and asked.

"Returning to His Highness, Qi Xiu did not expect His Highness to have already started spreading rumors in the capital, slandering the young master, saying that the young master is rich in private pockets, and even brought out the matter of building the Zhongyi Hall in Dongnan Dao and randomly framed it... ..."

When Qi Mingyuan heard it, his eyes turned cold, was the little master uncle arranged by a lowly and lowly person like Qi Xiu?

"Wu Mo, to quell the rumors, no matter what method you use, besides, Qi Xiu should not move for now, but he must let him know that slandering the young master is a living crime that cannot be forgiven!"

"Yes!"

"Is there anything else?"

"Your Highness, Qi Wanniang, a maid from the Imperial Palace, went to worship the Young Master outside the Temple of Mercy today. She said that she was worshiping the Young Master on behalf of the Empress Dowager. She prepared fresh fruits and flowers, and brought the maids of the imperial palace to bow respectfully for a long time before leaving. , and in the morning hours."

Qi Mingyuan listened, frowned slightly, and sat up straight. What is the empress dowager doing?After thinking for a while, Qi Mingyuan said, "Wu Mo, write down Qi Xiu's matter for now and teach him a lesson, but after the Xiyue Ri Festival ends, you return to Kyoto immediately. Before the festival ends, you monitor the rumors of the imperial capital, Don't let rumors spread."

"Yes!"

With the act of the empress dowager ordering people to kneel down to worship the young master, the spread of rumors in the capital has little effect on the junior uncle, and even if there is... Thinking of the reply letter from the junior uncle late last night, Qi Mingyuan felt helpless Sighing dotingly, he even said that he wished to hold a festival outside of Kyoto, preferably with his own family members participating. Does the little uncle understand the importance of the Xiyue Festival?

——Even in his previous life, when he and the monk were having a complete quarrel, and the monk was holding a ceremony outside, he had to ask the officials below to help him...

However, this is the little uncle.

-

At this time, in Kyoto, in the Temple of Mercy.

Ci'en Temple is built on the hillside, and behind it is a big stone pavilion. In the stone pavilion, Lin Funing sat cross-legged, watching Pinellia and Qingguo dancing in front of him under the direction of the monk. Lin Funing rested his chin, blinked, this dance... Why is it so like Tai Chi? ? ?

"My lord, do you understand this dance?" The great monk Zheng Jiaruo walked to Lin Funing's side and sat down cross-legged, and asked with a smile, pointing to the two dancers in front of him, "Young master is the most intelligent, you should watch Can you come out?"

Lin Funing nodded, then tilted his head and asked, "Is it based on the Yin-Yang theory?"

"Well... In fact, there is no prescribed movement for the moon dance. The moon dance is different every year, but it is based on the theory of yin and yang. Come here." The great monk Zheng Jiaruo said carefully.

Lin Funing listened and nodded while listening. After nodding, he suddenly felt something wrong and looked at the great monk Zheng Jiaruo, "Old man, why are you telling me this?"

"Hehe... I just saw that the young master seems to be very interested... Although on the day of the festival, there will be attendants from Pinellia and Qingguo dancing the moon dance, but the young master, as long as it is the eve of the moon, as long as it is According to the words of the young master, no matter where you are, you can dance, as long as it is a moon dance, it can bring blessings and peace to people." The great monk Zheng Jiaruo said, smiled meaningfully at Lin Funing, and then got up and left.

Lin Funing watched the great monk Zheng Jiaruo leave, and muttered in his heart, old fox!

It's true that he wanted to learn Moon Dance...cough cough...but he didn't expect to be spotted by the old man...

Well, since everyone can see it, he can simply admit it openly!

So, Lin Funing jumped up and walked towards Pinellia and Qingguo.

And the day after tomorrow is the day of the festival.

-

At dusk, the sky is full of colorful clouds.Kyoto First Street, Wei Wenhou Mansion.

Tianmo Courtyard - the courtyard of Wei Chengji's wife.

At this time, in the main hall of Tim Mo Academy, Wei Cheng was bowing respectfully to Li Yirong who was sitting at the head.

"Wei Cheng pays respects to Old General Li!"

"Get up, huh, huh, you and Deyu have the same virtue, and you'll be polite at every turn." Li Yirong laughed and got up to support Wei Cheng.

Wei Cheng was a little apprehensive, how could this person in front of him be the head of Li Jianghou's mansion, and also a highly respected senior!

"Wei Cheng dare not!" Wei Cheng hurriedly got up and cupped his hands in fear.

"Don't dare! You are Mingyuan's teacher. For me, the one who can accompany Mingyuan in Anmi Valley, Qingtian Town, and take care of him is the benefactor of my Li family! If it weren't for the dangerous situation back then, I would have I will go to pay my respects in person." Li Yirong sighed softly while speaking.

Recalling that back then, her daughter chose An Mi Valley because of her attachment to a certain person, but she didn't expect it to be Ming Yuan's blessing, whether it was the Lin family in Qingtian Town, Wei Cheng, or... Wuchen who lived in seclusion in Dafeng Mountain back then. The Great Monk, as well as the current Young Master, have been a great help to Ming Yuan.

During the four years in Anmi Valley, Li Yirong sighed softly when thinking about the incident in Xizhou, it was worth it!

Today's Mingyuan is not only tough and intelligent, but also seems to have a lot of power?

"Don't dare! This is what Wei Cheng should do." Wei Cheng hurriedly cupped his hands and said modestly.

"Okay, let's not talk about polite words, Wei Cheng, today I came secretly, I didn't see your father, I just came to see you, you should know why?" Li Yirong asked.

Wei Cheng nodded, of course he knew it, it must be for the will of the court councilor today!

"The prince's mansion is as it should be, but the cabinet is going? I'm afraid Mingyuan will face criticism from the crown prince and the third prince in the future... Wei Cheng, what do you think?" Li Yirong asked with a serious expression. with.

"Of course I support the fourth prince!" Wei Cheng cupped his hands and said.

Today, the person in front of me came here just to confirm this point.

Li Yirong was very satisfied with what he heard, so she nodded, changed the subject and said, "I think Mingyuan is not too young, and after the Xiyue Festival is over, I will choose a good one for Mingyuan." Marriage..." The next words were not spoken.

But I believe that Wei Cheng can understand it naturally. In fact, this is also what Wei Cheng expected. After all, there is no better way than marriage, but the words of the fourth prince probably have more than one wife, and the words of the Wei family's daughter-in-law ,...it still depends on the Patriarch...

"I understand." Wei Cheng whispered.
