Reborn Lin Family Funing

The night has darkened.But the liveliness of Kyoto has just begun, because many young men rushed to the lampposts, laughing and making noise, even roaring and quarreling, the swaying stars in the sky of Kyoto seem to be excited stand up.

At this time, the streets and alleys of Kyoto were quiet.

White Horse Lane, Jingdu Second Street, the side gate of the Lin Mansion, in this absolutely secluded alley belonging to the Lin family's territory, Lin Funing shook the fluorescent lamp in his hand, and looked suspiciously at Qi Mingyuan who was standing in front of him, "Mingyuan, Is this...for me?"

The fluorescent lamp in his hand is made of white spun yarn, with the word "Fu" outlined in sandalwood ink and the logo of Muyuxuanzhi on it, outsiders can tell at a glance that it is Lin Funing's.

On the way home, Qing Mo and Yun Mo appeared out of nowhere, and respectfully handed over the lamp and a small box to the little nephew.

"Well, I made it myself." Qi Mingyuan said with a light smile.

Lin Funing was taken aback, and looked down at the firefly lamp in his hand, was it made by his nephew Mingyuan himself?

"Ning'er, give me the lamp."

"Oh." Lin Funing handed the fluorescent lamp in his hand to Qi Mingyuan. Although it was a lamp, there was no flint inside and the candle would not be lit.

Seeing Qi Mingyuan pour the contents of the small box into the fluorescent lamp, Lin Funing's eyes widened. That, is that a luminous stone?

Qi Mingyuan poured the luminous stone into the fluorescent lamp, and then pulled up the white yarn covering the fluorescent lamp. In an instant, a faint warm white light flowed all over the ground.

Qi Mingyuan handed the fluorescent lamp to Lin Funing, and said softly, "Ning'er, it will be much more convenient for you to walk out at night in the future."

Lin Funing was startled when he heard the words, then lowered his head and muttered, "I also have a firefly lamp."

"But, I didn't make that for Ning'er, did I?" Qi Mingyuan chuckled, raised his hand to hold Lin Funing's hand, squeezed it tightly, and then slowly let go, and said in a low voice, "Ning'er, You go in first."

Lin Funing raised his head and looked at Qi Mingyuan. After a long while, he turned around slowly. Is it four years since we met today?They have already decided not to see each other again, but at this moment...

Lin Funing slowly walked towards the side door of Lin's house step by step, but when Lin Funing reached the side door, he couldn't help turning his head.

Turning around, Qi Mingyuan was looking at him quietly and deeply. When he turned his head, he curled his mouth and smiled. The smile was as gentle and pampering as ever.The white light of the firefly lamp in his hand faintly smudged the frost all over the place, and the gentle and smiling person in front of him was as handsome and handsome as an immortal in heaven.

In my previous life, I have seen and heard many people say that there will be a person in this world who will make you look for ten thousand years. Lin Funing only thinks it is too exaggerated, but at this moment, Lin Funing knows that the person in front of him, the smile of this person, the eyes of this person, He was afraid that he would never forget it in this lifetime.

Lin Funing clenched his fists so tightly that his nails sank into his flesh, then he raised his eyebrows and grinned brightly, "Mingyuan, goodbye!"

Qi Mingyuan looked at Lin Funing's smile in a daze for a moment. After seeing Lin Funing turn around and walk into the side door, he subconsciously took two steps forward, but stopped abruptly, watching the side door in front of him slowly move in front of him. Slowly closing, Qi Mingyuan couldn't help closing his eyes, and then slowly opened them. Looking at the closed side door for a long while, Qi Mingyuan turned around and left slowly.

Four years, soon, soon will pass.

Lin Funing in the side door stood there for a long time before slowly opening the side door. When he saw that Qi Mingyuan had disappeared outside the side door, he froze a bit disappointed, then slowly closed the side door, carrying a white Lin Funing walked towards his yard under the glowing fluorescent lights, but before he had gone a few steps, Lin Funing stopped, and in the corridor ahead, his elder brother Lin Fukang was staring at him with a gloomy expression.

Lin Funing's heart skipped a beat, just now... Could it be that brother saw it?

"Ning'er, come with me." Lin Fukang took a step forward, said in a deep voice, then turned around and strode away after speaking.

Lin Funing looked at the back of his brother Lin Fukang, and his face became sad, what a trouble.

Sure enough, after entering the main hall of Lin Funing's courtyard, Lin Fukang stared at Lin Funing, "Ning'er! My brother told you that you should keep the fourth prince at a respectful distance. Why did you go out with him today?"

Lin Funing scratched his ears, smiled coyly, and said in a low voice, "Brother...that..."

"What the hell!! Ning'er, you have a special status now, and the fourth prince is not simple, stay away from him!!" Lin Fukang said sharply.

"What are you yelling about!" A sudden soft voice sounded, Lin Funing's eyes lit up immediately, and when he turned his head to look, he saw his mother and Song's mother walking in slowly.

"Mother!" Lin Funing immediately rubbed over, his eyes sparkling, that's great, the savior is here!

"Kang'er, it's getting late, go back and rest." Mrs. Lin raised her hand and patted Lin Funing's shoulder, then turned her head and said softly to Lin Fukang.

Lin Fukang frowned, "Mother, you don't know, when I came back tonight, I saw—"

"I know! Ning'er has already told me that he is going out with the fourth prince tonight." Mrs. Lin said lightly.

Lin Fukang was taken aback for a moment, then glanced at Lin Funing, thought for a while, and bowed his hands, "That's it, mother, Kang'er will leave."

After Lin Fukang stepped back, Mrs. Lin looked at Lin Funing, her voice was gentle and soft, "Ning'er, it's good that you are back, why didn't Qingguo Pinellia come back with you?" Looking at the fluorescent lamp emitting white and silver light, he asked in amazement, "Ning'er, what kind of lamp is this? Why is the candlelight so beautiful?"

Lin Funing replied in a low voice, "Mother, Ming Yuan made it for me and gave it to me. Inside is... a luminous stone."

Mrs. Lin was startled after hearing this, and then looked at Lin Funing. Seeing that Lin Funing bowed her head, she waved her hand to signal Mother Song to back down. Sitting down on the couch, then, slowing down her voice, she asked slowly and softly, "Ning'er...but what happened?"

Lin Funing shook his head, looked up at Mrs. Lin, "Mother...I'm fine, Mingyuan...he's going to join the army in Northern Xinjiang."

Mrs. Lin was startled, the fourth prince... is going to join the army in Northern Xinjiang?

"Mother... Now, really, we won't see each other for four years..." Lin Funing forced a smile.

Mrs. Lin saw Lin Funing's pretendingly bright smile, her heart ached, she raised her hand to hold Lin Funing tightly in her arms, and said softly, "It's okay...the fourth prince is so smart, and besides, there are generals from the Li family in Northern Xinjiang, He'll be fine..."

Lin Funing just shook his head, took a deep breath, calmed down, raised his head and grinned at Mrs. Lin, "Mother, I'm fine, Mingyuan is so powerful, he won't be so stupid as to put himself in danger... ..." After finishing speaking, he changed the topic again and said, "By the way, mother, isn't there a banquet today?"

Seeing that Lin Funing changed the topic, Mrs. Lin also said angrily, "Don't you know, kid? All the banquets for the Lantern Festival are after the Lantern Festival...how come tonight?"

Lin Funing came to a sudden, "That's it, that's right, are you going to pick the stars tonight? By the way, mother, brother, is he going to pick the stars?" Lin Funing leaned over curiously and excitedly and asked.

Mrs. Lin laughed, raised her hand to poke Lin Funing's forehead, and sighed, "If your brother went to pick up the stars, then it's fine, but today when young men are all running out, your brother is hiding at home and reciting, really... ..." Mrs. Lin finished speaking, looked at Lin Funing, and said softly, "Ning'er, I don't ask for anything else, I just beg you guys to be good..."

Lin Funing was taken aback for a moment, and then said seriously, "Mother, don't worry, Ning'er understands."

Mrs. Lin patted Lin Funing's cheek, "Ning'er has always been the most well-behaved, mother knows. Well, it's getting late, you go to bed early."

"Ah."

Madam Lin said, she got up and left.

And when Mrs. Lin left, Lin Funing threw himself on the soft couch, motionless.

# # # # # #

After Mrs. Lin walked out of the yard, she sighed, and just as she was about to speak, she saw Lin Fukang standing there waiting.

"Kang'er, why haven't you gone to bed yet?" Mrs. Lin stepped forward and asked softly.

Lin Fukang raised his head and said, "Mother, I'm worried about Ning'er."

Mrs. Lin waved her hand to signal Mother Song to go away, and then said softly to Lin Fukang, "Kang'er, Ning'er knows what she's doing, and so does your father, so don't worry."

Lin Fukang frowned, remembering what he saw at the side door, the fourth prince Qi Mingyuan was holding Ning'er's hand... Then he whispered again, "Mother...I saw the fourth prince holding Ning'er's hand..."

Mrs. Lin just smiled when she heard the words, and said softly again, "Kang'er... just trust Ning'er, he is the younger brother you watched and grew up with, he understands everything, he knows what he should do..."

Lin Fukang frowned upon hearing this.

Seeing this, Mrs. Lin sighed, and asked softly, "Kang'er, is Ning'er or our Lin family's reputation more important to you?"

Lin Fukang was startled when he heard this, and then subconsciously said, "Of course Ning'er is important."

Mrs. Lin nodded in satisfaction when she heard the words, and said softly, "So, you only need to protect Ning'er, and let Ning'er decide for herself."

After Madam Lin finished speaking, she turned around and left, leaving Lin Fukang alone to worry about what to do.

And when Banxia and Qingguo came back, they saw Lin Funing who had fallen asleep on the soft couch in the main hall, and Lin Funing who was still holding the firefly lamp tightly in his hand while sleeping.

When seeing the blessing characters drawn in sandalwood ink on the firefly lamp and the logo of Muyu Xuanzhi, Banxia knew that it must be made by the fourth prince himself, and the fourth prince seemed to have a habit of making things for the young master.

And when they found the tear stains on the sleeping and lovely face of their young master, Banxia and Qingguo were a little stunned.

Qingguo was worried and wanted to step forward, but Banxia held him back.Banxia shook her head at Qingguo to indicate no, then gently brought the quilt and mat, covered Lin Funing carefully, then laid the mat on the ground with Banxia, ​​and fell asleep on the spot.

"Brother... is the young master alright?"

"It's okay, go to sleep, don't disturb the young master."

Three days later, the court meeting ended.

Holy, personally ordered the fourth prince, Qi Mingyuan, to go to Northern Xinjiang to oversee the army in the name of Prince Xuan, and also ordered the second prince, Qi Minger, to preside over the Enke and Scholars Examination in the name of Prince Yu!

Today, the Imperial Palace, Changxin Palace, the palace where the Empress Dowager lives.

Qi Mingyuan walked slowly, passing through the long corridor was the Changxin Palace.

Changxin Palace was originally the quiet room of Taizu, but later it became a quiet palace. There were no concubines living in it for a long time. The emperor's decree wanted to make the empress dowager his successor, but it was opposed by the empress dowager and concubine Jin at that time, but the former emperor would rather leave the empress position vacant than obey the empress dowager's order to confer the noble daughter of the Song family as empress Later, when the father registered, because he was grateful for Concubine Jin's upbringing, he canonized Concubine Jin as the Empress Dowager, and Changxin Palace became Concubine Jin's residence for decades.

Speaking of which, Concubine Jin is truly a legend. The daughter of a third-rank low-ranking official entered the palace because of a draft, and was gradually promoted from a nobleman to a concubine, but she had nothing to show for it. In front of him, he handed over his infant child to Concubine Jin, who is now his father, to be raised.

Concubine Jin is not the biological mother to the father, but she is far better than the biological mother. The mother-child relationship between the two can be described as deep.

At that time when the queen entrusted her child to Concubine Jin, the imperial court thought that the queen was sick and confused!Concubine Jin doesn't have the backing of a wealthy family, so this child will miss the throne, right?But it was Concubine Jin who brought up the child and sent the child to the throne.

Passing through the corridor, Qi Mingyuan stood still and looked at the Changxin Palace standing in the sun not far away. Concubine Jin's natal family...is a collateral branch of the Lin family.This is really surprising.

When Qi Mingyuan was about to step forward, a row of people came slowly ahead, looking at the handsome and noble young man who was walking in the front, waving a fan, and the people who were also smiling in the same way behind the young man , Qi Mingyuan twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, the crown prince and the third prince?

"Fourth brother! Where are you going?" The handsome and noble young man who came leisurely asked with a smile, his smile was wanton and flamboyant. As a person who was forced by the empress dowager to be the crown prince when he was born, he really Smart enough, but unfortunately the city is not enough, the vision is not enough, he did not get the support of the courtiers, although there is a writer behind him.

"If you're going back to the prince, Mingyuan came to see the empress dowager. I'm paying her respects to the empress dowager." Qi Mingyuan cupped his hands and lowered his eyes as he said, his attitude was just right, neither humble nor overbearing.

"Yeah... that's right. The fourth brother is about to go far away, so I should tell my grandmother and her elders." The handsome and noble young man, the prince, said with a mocking smile, turned around and had a face similar to his The handsome young man left together.

After the prince left, Qi Mingyuan slowly got up, stood up straight, and a faint and indifferent smile flitted across the corner of his mouth.

Afterwards, Qi Mingyuan walked into Changxin Palace.

When Qi Mingyuan walked into Changxin Palace, he was taken into the side hall.In the side hall, a woman about five or sixty years old was sitting on the couch, watching Qi Mingyuan walk in slowly, she smiled faintly, and before Qi Mingyuan knelt down to make a salute, she waved her hands and said, "Those vain rituals can be avoided. Mingyuan, Come here, sit here."

Qi Mingyuan bowed his hands humbly, then walked to the side of the couch and sat down.

The woman, that is, the Empress Dowager looked at Qi Mingyuan carefully, and said, "Yes, you look like your mother six or seven times, but your eyes don't look like your mother or your father. Emperor."

Qi Mingyuan smiled slightly, "Father said the same thing."

"Looking at your eyes reminds me of someone." The empress dowager said softly.

"Grandma, what are you talking about..."

"Taizu." The empress dowager said lightly, "I have seen a portrait of Taizu before, and your eyes are like Taizu."

When Qi Mingyuan heard this, he smiled, "It's my grandson's honor to do so."

The Empress Dowager looked directly at Qi Mingyuan, "Not only do your eyes look alike, but you also do things alike. Mingyuan, tell grandma the truth. The matter of going to northern Xinjiang is your own idea, right?"

"Yes..." Qi Mingyuan said very frankly, "I mentioned to my father that I wanted to go to Northern Xinjiang for training, and my father agreed."

The Empress Dowager looked at Qi Mingyuan, and after a long while, she said, "You will go to the northern border, and you will definitely go to the battlefield. I know your uncle Li Junxian, he is a person who attaches great importance to military discipline. Even if you are his nephew, he will not I will show mercy to you."

"This is also Mingyuan's wish." Qi Mingyuan said, clasping his hands again, "Grandma, don't worry."

The empress dowager sighed lightly, and didn't say anything more. She carefully instructed some trivial matters, asked about the travel time and personnel arrangements, etc., and asked Qi Mingyuan to step back and prepare well.

After Qi Mingyuan left, Qi Wanniang came out, walked to the empress dowager, and said softly, "Empress dowager, I think the fourth prince is a good one. Didn't you say that this time he traveled to northern Xinjiang to avoid the muddy waters of the capital?" Is it a good thing?"

"Hey... His eyes look too much like Taizu's." The Empress Dowager murmured.

Qi Mingyuan, who walked out of Changxin Palace, left the Emperor's Palace and got into the carriage.

After getting into the carriage, Qi Mingyuan pulled down the sachet at his waist and opened it. There was another sachet inside. He looked carefully at the sachet. There was a sign of blessing on it. ", couldn't help but smiled lowly, a touch of tenderness flashed across his eyes.

——Sure enough, it was something Ning'er would do.

"Your Highness?" Qing Mo outside the carriage suddenly asked for instructions.

"Let's talk." Qi Mingyuan said, carefully put away the sachet, and put it away carefully.

"Master Wei Cheng is already waiting at the Prince's Mansion."

"Then go back directly." Qi Mingyuan said, paused, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up, "Qing Mo, ask Lv Mo to prepare a red envelope after returning, and put the account of the treasure house of the Prince's Mansion in the red envelope."

Qing Mo, who was driving the carriage outside, was stunned, the accounts of the treasure house of the prince's mansion? !Did he hear correctly?

——Your Highness... Is this going to give all of my wealth to the Young Master?
