When rivals dress as husband and wife
Chapter 56
"What are you doing here?" Gu Jiangwan pulled Lin Muan to sit down, and stared coldly at the people sitting in the living room.
Song Rin laughed twice, "I didn't expect that the head of the Gu family, the person Mu An loves, would be so impolite. I am also the son of Zhennan Prince, no matter what happens, I won't let you be so cold-eyed."
Gu Jianwan sneered twice, "Mu'an is not something you can call. If the prince of Zhennan can't understand my style, why come to my Gu mansion to make fun of yourself."
Song Rin didn't reply, but her gaze was fixed on Lin Muan's abdomen. The child in Lin Muan's womb had just turned three months old, and she couldn't see anything when she stood up, but she could still reveal a little clue when she was sitting.
Lin Mu'an got up and said, "What's the business of the prince of Zhennan coming here? If you just came to tell us about your status, then please come back early."
Song Rin narrowed his eyes, "You, have a child?"
"Yes." Lin Muan admitted frankly, "I'm really sorry for not being able to make the Mi Zhuxiang of Prince Zhennan useful."
"If there's nothing else, please come back first." Gu Jianwan raised his voice to the housekeeper standing outside, "See off the guests!"
The housekeeper came in and bowed to Song Rin respectfully, "Please, my son."
Song Rin sneered and stood up, patted some wrinkled clothes and said, "This son is not that boring, this time I just want to tell Mr. Gu that Zhennan Wang's millions of soldiers are waiting for the real emperor."
After finishing speaking, he walked away, and the housekeeper sent him out, leaving only Gu Jiangwan and Lin Mu'an looking at each other.
"So, does he know that Emperor Hongyuan is your father?" Lin Muan opened his mouth, and finally asked this question.
Gu Qiaowan nodded, "Mrs. Gu told me that there are very few people who know about this matter. Taifu Lin is one, and so is King Zhennan. According to what Song Rin said, King Zhennan should have everything Told him."
"The intention of King Zhennan to do this is obvious." Lin Mu'an said, "Zhao Huan sent all the vassals back to the fief, which completely angered King Zhennan. King Zhennan has many soldiers and generals. If you really want to be This Ninth Five-Year Lord, he is definitely the greatest help."
Gu Jianwan walked up to Lin Muan and hugged him gently, "I thought we would live a simple life, but I didn't expect such a big change in just a few months. To be honest, I would rather be with you You are an ordinary couple."
Lin Muan stretched out his hand to hug him back, "Me too, but we've come to this point now, we can't help but turn back." Patting Gu Jiangwan on the back, Lin Muan continued, "Should we start our journey?"
"En." Gu Qiaowan nodded, and called out to Mu An in a low voice. Lin Muan smiled and said nothing more.
------
It has been more than a month since I returned to the capital, and the cold and dry winter makes people feel uncomfortable. It's really not as good as a snowstorm that makes all the joy in this world.The carriage made a slight noise as it walked on the ground. Lin Muan had just woken up, and he really didn't want to be bored in the carriage all the time, so he came out and sat on the carriage board to blow some air.Wearing an extremely thick cotton padded jacket and a cloak over his body, his already out-of-shape figure appeared even more bloated. Looking down, Lin Muan frowned unconsciously.
"It's much more desolate." Gu Jiangwan said softly while sitting next to Lin Muan.
"That's right," Lin Muan raised his head and looked around, "We've only been away for a few months, but it seems like a few years have passed."
The carriage soon arrived at the gate of Gu's mansion, Gu Jianwan helped Lin Mu'an down, and Ling Feng pulled the carriage back to the backyard.As soon as he entered the door, Uncle Cheng followed, and Gu Jiangwan casually asked where Mrs. Gu was going.
Uncle Cheng replied, "Marquis Dingguo passed away, and the old lady went to offer condolences."
"What!" Lin Muan frowned suddenly, "Didn't you say you were sick? Why did you pass away so suddenly!"
Uncle Cheng sighed, and the look of regret on his face was obvious, "The governor of Qingzhou made a report a few days ago saying that the mobs in Qingzhou rebelled. The emperor was furious and sent General Zuo Wu Qing to suppress it."
Gu Jianwan took a look at Lin Muan, "Qingzhou is the most severely damaged state by the flood of the Yellow River, but why are there still civilian riots after the flood has subsided?"
Uncle Cheng shook his head and sighed, "The flood in Qingzhou has submerged a lot of crops. The ordinary people are starved of food and clothing, but the relief from the imperial court has been delayed. The poor people in Qingzhou flock to Jizhou. The prefect of the state ordered the army to close the gate of Jizhou after hearing this. Many people were starved to death at the junction of Qingzhou and Jizhou. In a month, the people of Qingzhou were killed and injured, and there was even a phenomenon of cannibalism. Now it is The officials forced the people to rebel, and the people had no choice but to rebel."
Uncle Cheng sighed, and continued, "The court has never paid attention to such riots, but this time the emperor's order is to kill without mercy. Qingzhou is a big state. I don't know how many people will be killed in vain. If you lose your life, I'm afraid the Yellow River will be stained red with blood."
"So my father went to remonstrate to death?" Maybe it was the respect and love of the original owner's body for his father, or maybe Lin Muan himself had a feeling of closeness to the Lin family. His body was trembling slightly, and his voice was trembling slightly, making people listen I don't feel sad overflowing.
"Yes." Uncle Cheng hesitated for a moment, and finally opened his mouth. Seeing that Lin Mu'an's condition was really bad, he quickly added, "My condolences to Young Master Lin, your health is critical."
Lin Muan calmed down and asked, "Tell me in detail."
Uncle Cheng glanced at Gu Jiangwan, wondering if he should continue.Gu Qiaowan nodded, Lin Mu'an will know sooner or later, it's better to talk about it together.
"The Marquis of Dingguo knelt at the door of the imperial study for three hours, but he never saw the emperor. The next day, the Marquis of Dingguo went to court. Hou was in a hurry, the foolish king and other remarks were spoken, the emperor was furious, and directly cut off the title of Marquis Dingguo. Marquis Dingguo just said "the villain", and then vomited blood, and the blood sprinkled Guangxian Hall, He fell into a coma on the spot. The imperial doctor said that he became sick from overwork, and relapsed from a serious illness. He was so angry that he couldn't recover. In the early morning of the next day, he just passed away, and today is the first seven days."
There were tears in Lin Muan's eyes, and he raised his head. Lin Muan turned his head and said to Gu Qiaowan, "Come with me to Lin's house."
Gu Qiaowan nodded, and endless sadness spread in his heart.When Uncle Cheng heard this, he hurriedly prepared the sedan chair, Lin Muan waved his hand and said, "No, we'll walk." Riding horses is not allowed in the imperial city, and the sedan chair is not as fast as walking by yourself.
When they arrived at the intersection, the two found that the whole street was full of people. Gu Jiang went to ask at night, and it turned out that these people came to mourn Lin Jing.The elders of the three dynasties, the most powerful ministers, always consider the people of the country when they are in power, even if they are stripped of their titles, so many people risk being beheaded by the emperor to come here to see Lin Jing for the last time, The so-called virtuous officials are probably nothing more than that.
When he walked to the door, Lin Mu'an looked up and saw that the signboard of Dingguohou's Mansion had been removed, and now it was only regarded as Lin's Mansion.White gauze is hung on the plaque, and white cloth is pasted at the door, dignified and solemn, sad and silent.
Seeing him, the doorman shouted "Second Young Master" in surprise and was about to go in to report, but Lin Mu'an stopped him, and pushed the door open by himself.
There were a lot of people inside, most of whom were officials from the DPRK and China, and most of these officials were former students of Lin Jing.There were a lot of people in the yard, but no one made any noise, and when Lin Mu'an and Gu Jiangwan came in, no one looked back.
Walking across the covered bridge step by step, the mourning hall is right in front of you.Lin Muan's footsteps stopped at the door.There were not many people in the mourning hall, just Lin Li'an, Ye Chuan and Lin's mother together with a few servants.Then there were people who came to offer incense, Mother Lin's eyes were red and swollen, she didn't know why she was sad, but she still gave incense to these people with a forced face and a smile.
The black coffin was placed in the center of the mourning hall, and the nails had already been nailed in. This person was nowhere to be seen.Thinking of this, Lin Mu'an's heart suddenly ached. Lin Jing had experienced ten years of hardships and hardships, and intrigues and strife in court and official circles in his life. He left like this when he thought he could enjoy family happiness to the fullest.Lin Muan glanced at Ye Chuan, but when he left, he didn't even meet his own grandson.
Lin Muan's nails were deeply embedded in his palm, and the sharp pain spread from his palm. Gu Jiangwan stood behind him and patted his shoulder and said, "Let's go in."
"En." Lin Mu'an nodded in response, just in time, Lin Li'an saw them when he got up to collect incense.Seeing Lin Li'an froze, Ye Chuan and Lin's mother also turned their heads, Lin Mu'an nodded slightly, and walked together with Gu Jiangwan to kowtow for Lin Jing in front of the mat.Mother Lin handed them incense, but tears flowed down again. The youngest son came back, but the Lin family never had a reunion day.
Lin Muan held the incense in his hand and said softly, "Father, the boy is back, I forgive the boy for not being able to see you for the last time, I wish you a safe journey."
Gu Jiangwan said from the side, "Master Yuezhang, I hope Mr. Yuezhang will forgive me for being late. You can rest assured that I will take good care of Mu An. Now that Mu An is pregnant, the child will be born soon." , we will definitely bring him to see you."
Gu Jiangwan's voice was very low, and the rest of the people were not too close, so Lin's mother only vaguely heard the child's words, so naturally she didn't take it to heart.
Time passed and the guests left one by one. Lin Muan took off the cloak, and then Mother Lin saw Lin Muan's slightly disfigured body. She was a little happy and a little sad at the same time.Lin Jing didn't see the birth of his grandson, nor did he see the birth of his grandson. It's all fate, and there is no fate to play tricks on grandchildren. Mother Lin wiped away tears secretly.Lin Mu'an stepped forward slowly and hugged Mother Lin, and said softly, "Mother, don't be too sad, Dad definitely doesn't want you to be like this. Dad is gone, we are still here, and we will always be with you."
Mother Lin nodded, and hugged Lin Muan back, the mother and son fell silent, and looked at the sky, it was already dark.
"Chang Wan," Mother Lin looked at Gu Qiao Wan and said, "My mother-in-law worked hard all day today, and now she is sleeping in Xinuan Pavilion. You and Mu An can go and have a look."
Gu Jiangwan agreed, and the two went to Xinuang Pavilion together, knocked on the door, and Mrs. Gu said loudly, "Come in."
Song Rin laughed twice, "I didn't expect that the head of the Gu family, the person Mu An loves, would be so impolite. I am also the son of Zhennan Prince, no matter what happens, I won't let you be so cold-eyed."
Gu Jianwan sneered twice, "Mu'an is not something you can call. If the prince of Zhennan can't understand my style, why come to my Gu mansion to make fun of yourself."
