[Red Mansion] Reborn Lin Ruhai

Gyeonggi Daying is located outside the capital city, divided into two left and right sides, almost surrounding the city wall, in the form of arch guards.The left and right camps are respectively guarded by the left guard general and the right guard general.The security of the capital should not be underestimated, and the non-imperial relatives guarding the capital camp are good generals who won the emperor's newcomer.Now the General of the Left Guard is Xiao Lingwei, and the General of the Right Guard is Xiao Cheng.

In the past few years, under the guidance of Lin Ruhai, Xiao Cheng has become more stable. Although he occasionally made mistakes, he is already twenty years old. Bluff.Recently, everyone in the camp knew that His Royal Highness liked to bring a little son around in the camp.That young man was only about ten years old, with delicate features, starry eyes and white teeth, he looked weak, but he was good at swordsmanship and arrows.

The young master in the crowd is naturally Daiyu.

There were no entertainment items in the barracks, and after training, they just sat and chatted together.A little bit of novelty can spread quickly from one to ten to another, and various embellishments will be added during the period.In the end, it was said that the young master was an immortal, otherwise how could he be so capable at such a young age?Not only is his swordsmanship superb, but his arrow skills are even more exquisite, piercing Yang with a hundred steps.It is said that someone saw him shoot down a bee flying in the sky, and he could smash the target with a single arrow.

Lin Daiyu just shook her head lightly when she heard this, as if she was not affected by it.

Xiao Cheng also laughed at him as a young man.

In February, the spring is strong, the flowers are gorgeous, and the fragrance is everywhere.In a blink of an eye, it is another year of Flower Festival, and it is also Lin Daiyu's tenth birthday.This is Daiyu's first birthday after her mother's filial piety, everyone naturally paid attention to it, Lin's residence and the imperial palace were very busy.Although the birthday was celebrated in Lin's mansion, everyone in the palace, from the ordinary picker girl Baolin to the concubines, concubines, and even the emperor, was in a hurry to prepare gifts, and the scale would naturally not be small.

Of course, even if some low-level concubines prepared gifts, they might not be able to reach Daiyu's hands, but as we all know, this princess is ten times more expensive than the real princess despite being a righteous daughter. Who would let this good opportunity go?

Every year on her birthday, she would receive a bunch of messy things. After a long time, Daiyu didn't bother to look at them. She only picked out Lin Ruhai, Xiao Zhelin, Xiao Lingwei, Xiao Cheng and others for safekeeping, and piled up the rest in her small warehouse .A few days ago, Hongmei reported that the small warehouse was full of things, so Lin Daiyu asked people to clean the one or two-story attic next to the yard, and used it as her second small warehouse.

Xiao Zhelin's rewards over the past few years, some gadgets from his concubines and Mrs. Gaoming, plus things from Xiao Lingwei and several princes on weekdays, as well as exquisite gadgets sent by Li Hao from time to time, are countless.

The storeroom was full, and Daiyu herself hadn't calculated the exact number. If they took out all of them, how many people's eyes would be shocked!

Daiyu didn't pay much attention to these extraneous things.

Although Li Hao has never set foot in the Central Plains, he has never alienated Daiyu.Several times a year, he would send things away, and sometimes he would write letters to tell Daiyu the happy things he had encountered.Every year on Daiyu's birthday, he ordered an artist to draw a portrait of himself and sent it along with a gift.Daiyu put it away carefully in a small box, and when she received a new one the next year, she took it out and compared it to see if there was any change.

Today there are three portraits on the case, and Daiyu has seen them one by one. Although her figure has become more slender and her facial contours have become a bit tougher, her charm has not changed and her temperament is still the same.Daiyu nodded: "Brother Hao is still my brother Hao!"She put away the portrait, put it back in the box, and told Hongmei to put it away.Mo Lan walked in after a while, followed by four or five little maids holding washbasins, towels and other things.

Daiyu was sitting on a small armchair, when the maid holding the basin walked up to her slowly, knelt down on her knees and held the basin high.Mo Lan stepped forward and rolled up Daiyu's sleeves, took a big handkerchief to cover Daiyu's skirt, and Daiyu reached into the water to wash.After tidying up, Mo Lan waited for Daiyu to take off her clothes and go to bed. Just as she was about to leave, Daiyu took her hand and said with a smile, "It's still early, sister will have a chat with me."

"Princess, go to bed early and recharge your batteries. Tomorrow is your birthday, but you are busy."

Daiyu pouted, turned her head and said, "You lied to me again. I'm not a child anymore. I don't know if I'm really as busy as you said? And what can I do if I have a birthday?" She is a princess, With a prominent status, those who give gifts don't need her to see them. At most, they invite Jia Rou and a few girls to sit at home, and they won't be tired.

"Yes yes yes, it was a slip of the tongue by the slave. The princess should go to bed earlier, so don't stay in bed for tomorrow's birthday! The slave is outside, call me if you need anything!" Mo Lan was funny, her master usually looked like a mature young man, Such shyness is not common!

"Understood, you're the only one who has too much to do!" Daiyu snorted and lay down angrily.

Mo Lan covered her mouth and smiled silently, Hongmei lifted the curtain and came in, and was about to say something, Mo Lan waved her hand, pointing at Daiyu to signal her to keep silent.Hongmei understood, quickly covered her mouth, and beckoned Mo Lan to go over.For fear of disturbing Daiyu, Mo Lan lightly turned off the light and retreated quietly to the outside room.

The two walked to the door before they started talking.

Hongmei smiled and asked, "Is the princess asleep?"

Mo Lan said: "I haven't fallen asleep yet, do you have something to do with the princess?"

"It's not an important matter. It's the same tomorrow." Hongmei waved her hand, obviously not taking the matter she said to heart.Mo Lan became interested when she heard that, so she simply dragged her to the side room next to her, and asked the little maid to take a plate of melon seeds, and said with great interest while eating the melon seeds, "What's the matter? Tell me first?"

Hongmei scolded with a smile: "You will enjoy it, and you don't think it's troublesome!"

"Don't you want to eat? Besides, aren't you just idle and bored? I took a nap this afternoon, and I'm in high spirits now. It's just a matter of time for you to talk to me." Mo Lan said.

"You're not lacking, but I'm still lacking?" Having said that, Hongmei still said, "It's the plum blossoms sent by my son, for the princess to decorate the house! Originally, the number of each color was set, so I will go to see it this afternoon. The few pots of red plums that the princess likes most are missing..." Before finishing speaking, he was interrupted, "What's the matter? It's the princess' birthday these days. There are so many people coming and going, some little maid must be watching The flowers bloomed so well that they were taken away secretly, it is worth nothing, Minger will tell the princess to send someone to investigate and the truth will come to light."

Mo Lan laughed heartlessly, as if she felt that Hongmei was making too much fuss.

Mo Lan shook her head helplessly, and said, "Don't jump to conclusions, just listen to me. I thought so too at first, but when I went to see the flowerpot at night, it was clearly there. If it hadn't been moved Even the traces make me wonder if my eyes are dazzled, do you think this is strange?"

"Could it be that the little maid took it back without knowing the severity and sent it back in fear of punishment?"

Hongmei nodded, "It's possible...but it's about the princess and we'd better be careful. I'll have someone isolate the potted flower first, and I'll send someone to investigate tomorrow! It's better to have nothing to do, just in case... "

She didn't say anything later, but Mo Lan knew it, and she said on the carpet: "This is also...be careful!" Both she and Hongmei lived in the palace since childhood, and they haven't seen any weird things. What is ordinary is often hidden murderous intent.If something goes wrong with the princess, those servants are to blame for playing to death.

In the morning of the second day, after Lin Daiyu had washed and washed, she dressed up and came to the main hall. She first worshiped the heaven and the earth, and then her ancestors from afar, and then went to Lin Ruhai's house to salute.Xiao Zhelin arrived at the Lin Mansion early in the morning, and he also paid homage to him, and received many gifts.Everyone wanted to salute Daiyu, Lin Ruhai feared that her daughter would lose her life because her daughter was still young, so she only gave a reward, and all the salutes were waived.

It was still early at this time, and the little friends invited by Lin Daiyu hadn't arrived yet, so the three of them sat and chatted.Lin Ruhai sipped tea leisurely, Xiao Zhelin held the teacup but did not drink the tea, his eyes were undisguisedly locked on Lin Ruhai, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, as if watching him drink tea was a pleasure for Ahaz.Daiyu leaned on the soft mattress and stuffed grapes into her mouth carelessly.Seemingly remembering something, her eyes lit up, and she suddenly said, "Father, since I am your adopted daughter, I am also the daughter of the royal family. Do you want to pay homage to the Taimiao?"

"Do you want to go?" Xiao Zhelin raised his eyebrows, the Taimiao is not close here!

Daiyu shook her head in embarrassment, twisted her handkerchief and laughed twice, "That...father...may I pay homage?" The Taimiao is so far away, and today is her birthday, so her father will not allow her to wear men's clothes and ride a horse out.Then if you want to go to Taimiao, you must take a carriage, Amitabha, God!How long does it take to go, and I will be hungry when I come back.Daiyu looked at her father begging for help, if the emperor wants to say something that can't be done later, you can definitely help me!

Lin Ruhai shrugged innocently, meaning it was very clear that you provoked this talk yourself, and you will bear the consequences yourself.

Lin Daiyu turned her head and looked at Xiao Zhelin pitifully, "It's my birthday today, so don't bother me!"

"Hehe..." Xiao Zhelin laughed twice, and lightly uttered two firm words: "Yes!"

"Thank you, father, long live father!" Daiyu excitedly ran to the yard and bowed several times in the direction of the Taimiao.Walking into the living room, the food has been set up, mainly light, although the Lin family is rich, it is not wasteful, the food is mainly delicious, not very extravagant.The difference today is that there are more birthday noodles and birthday peaches on the table.Ordinary people's longevity peaches are mostly made of flour. After all, if it is not the season when peaches are ripe, it is difficult for ordinary people to get fresh peaches.It's February now, and the peaches haven't even bloomed yet, let alone bear fruit.

But today, there are fresh peaches on the dining table of the Lin family, and they are big and bright, with a hint of pink on the top.The girls had been cleaned, Xiao Zhelin cut the peaches himself, and the room was immediately filled with sweetness, Daiyu couldn't help picking a piece to taste first, "It's delicious, Father, this is a new plant, why is it different from the ones I ate before?" ?”

"What's the difference?" Xiao Zhelin was amused, and asked as he put a piece of fruit pulp into Lin Ruhai's bowl.

"Hmm..." Daiyu bit her chopsticks and thought for a while, "It feels different, it tastes better!"

"As long as it's delicious, this is a peach from a hundred-year-old tree. You are so lucky, the old tree has been there since the greenhouse was built, and it died a few years ago. I didn't expect it to grow new branches this year. Just after the peaches formed Catch up with your birthday, others don't have this blessing! Not to mention you, is it the first time for my father to eat?" Xiao Zhelin was not without regrets, and Daiyu smiled when she heard it, "Then I can eat more today. some!"

Lin Ruhai shook his head with a smile, the two of them became more and more like-minded by then.Xiao Zhelin squeezed his hand quietly, glanced at him, and blew into his ear: "Ru Hai also eat more..."
