[Red House] Raiders of life

This year, when Daiyu entered Beijing and An's family entered the palace, Lin Ning had listened to her, but she had nothing to do with the Lin family in this life, and Lin Ning didn't pay special attention to it. Now that Tu Mingzhou mentioned it, she made a rough calculation. The matter is almost the result of the past two years.

"The emperor specially asked you to return to the capital, and that's why?"

Tu Mingzhou has been in the frontier for several years, because news has been coming in, he can make military exploits from time to time, especially Lin Ning does not know what the private correspondence between Tu Mingzhou and Tu Yuanhai said. There is no plan to let Tu Mingzhou return to Beijing.If it was said that this time it was because of the Beirong Great Victory, then when the news of the great victory first came, Tu Yuanhai was just happy, and then suddenly an imperial decree came to call Tu Mingzhou back to the capital.

"Although Lord Lin's original wife has passed away, Jia Lian still calls him uncle. It will be more convenient for Jia Lian to pass on this relationship. As for me, I have the blood of the Zhen family after all. The relationship is indifferent, but there has never been any hostility. The tenth brother is still young, and the relationship between the tenth brother and the Zhen family is too close, so I may not be able to do it. Let me do it, just right. The father probably wants to train me."

It is an exercise and a test.It is an opportunity, but also a danger.

Lin Ning understood that even though the tenth prince was always supported by the Zhen family, even though her relationship with the Zhen family had been indifferent these years, in the eyes of the world and even the emperor, her surname was Zhen after all.If the Zhen family is in trouble, she will inevitably be implicated as a concubine, even if she is not implicated, she will be very ugly on the face, and her mother's family is a guilty minister, she may be considered a concubine as a noble concubine.

Since Tu Mingzhou was born by her, he must be scruples about this.

This is exactly what the emperor wants to see.

Lin Ning's expression flickered, "When you get there, don't worry about the relationship between me and your grandmother, just do what you want."

Tu Mingzhou opened his mouth, a little hesitant, "Mother Concubine..."

Lin Ning sneered, "Mother Concubine knows it well. Mother Concubine has lived in the palace for so many years, can't she still not see clearly? What is face? Others say irresponsible things, just let them go. As long as you fight hard, Your royal father will never take anger at me because of the Zhen family. But as long as I am still a noble concubine with great power in my hands, why should I care about them? What can they do to me? And whether they can go further..."

With Mo Wanru, the white moonlight, it is impossible for anyone to sit on the throne of queen again.

Lin Ning paused, then looked at Tu Mingzhou and pursed his lips and chuckled, "If you are in power in the future, the concubine mother will naturally become the most honorable woman in this palace."

The queen mother is far more reliable than the queen.

Tu Mingzhou solemnly said: "Mother, don't worry!"

"When you go over there, don't rush for quick success. Master Lin has been in Jiangnan for many years, and he knows the situation in Jiangnan best. Listen and watch more. If you can't hit a hit, don't act rashly. Besides, if you jump the wall in a hurry, although you are a prince, you can It's hard to guarantee that they will do something crazy after being cornered."

Lin Ning babbled a lot of instructions.Tu Mingzhou chuckled, "Mother and Concubine, I'm not going to leave now, there are still three or four months. Besides, I've come here with thousands of troops, so why should I be afraid of this?"

Lin Ning stared, "Don't underestimate the enemy, how many famous generals have been defeated by this, and the ship capsized in the gutter! You need to know..."

Tu Mingzhou grinned bitterly, "Concubine Mu, look at me still kneeling. I just got hit by a board, and it hurts me to death."

Lin Ning was dumbfounded, and let it go.

The next day, Tu Mingzhou entered the "rehabilitation" mode, and at the same time, some rumors began to spread in the palace that Tu Mingzhou fell out of favor and was punished.Lin Ning was busy discussing Jia Lian and Zhen Li's marriage with An Shi.

As Tu Mingzhou wished, the day was set on the eighteenth of next month.In this way, after getting married, the two still have about three months to spend together.

Jia Lian's position and return date are uncertain, and most importantly, the south of the Yangtze River is dangerous. If Lin Ruhai sends Daiyu to Beijing, it is naturally impossible for Jia Lian to let Zhen Li go with him.

In February, Tu Mingzhou and Jia Lian went to Jiangnan.

Because they were aunts and nephews at first, now one son stays away and one husband stays away. Now that they are gone, Zhen Li often enters the palace to talk to Lin Ning.They are both daughters of the Zhen family, so they have a bit of empathy.

They went back and forth several times, and then Zhen Li took Daiyu along with her.

The eunuch moved the wicker chair over, Lin Ning and Zhen Li simply sat in the small courtyard of Mingcui Palace to enjoy the cool air, watching Daiyu fly a kite under the care of the maid, and gossiping while eating melons and fruits.

"You are on good terms with her."

Zhen Li interjected: "I'm not afraid of my aunt's jokes. I took more care of Cousin Lin before because I saw that the second master is now with Mr. Lin. After a long time of contact, I really like this child. At a young age, I have a lot of thoughts. She is very clear. Especially the demeanor that is all over her body, only after I saw her did I know what it means to be a girl raised by a scholarly family, and what it means to have a poetic and scholarly spirit in her belly."

"It's really a likable girl." Lin Ning nodded. Although she had been drawn out of the feelings of the previous mission worlds, her memory was still there. Lin Daiyu was worthy of Zhen Li's words.

Zhen Li raised her lips and then lowered her lips, "A good girl is a good girl, but the Jia family... Auntie, it's not that I want to blame my husband's family. It's just that some of the behaviors of the old lady in the house are really annoying. It’s good to know how to say it. I didn’t know until I was married that Cousin Lin lived with Baoyu in the old lady’s house since she entered the mansion, outside a green gauze cabinet and inside a green gauze cabinet.”

"Earlier, I said that the house was not ready at that time, so I just let it go. But Cousin Lin sent several letters from the old lady, urging her to come here. If she really had the heart, why didn't she prepare the house? Forget it, it’s fine if you just live there for a day or two. But when I got married, Cousin Lin had been in Beijing for a few months, why is she still like this? It’s not like she’s going to build a yard, why is this house just like this? Difficult to do?"

"The second master was not very happy to see this scene when he came back from the northwest. It's just that he, a big man, can't take care of this kind of thing. I told me after I got married. The old lady and the boss didn't want it, so I resorted to some tricks. Put cousin Lin in the yard next to us. Even so, Baoyu always rushes into the cousin's house every day. Although the two of them are not very old now, if we really pay attention, there is still a difference of seven years between men and women. Xi’s statement! How can this daughter’s boudoir allow outside men to come in and out at will?”

Lin Ning narrowed his eyes, "Don't give me another set, just tell me if you have anything to do! But you want to ask me for two nuns in charge?"

"Auntie is wise. I don't want to ask a few nuns in charge, and I'm afraid I have to ask my aunt for help. I will reward them in the name of my aunt. This way, it will be convenient for them to do things in Jia's residence."

Lin Ning glanced at Zhen Li, "How many? Are you talking about two?"

Zhen Li hurriedly begged for mercy, "It's enough, but it would be the best if there are two more. Auntie also knows that the second master has another sister, who is the second girl in the mansion, named Yingchun. Although she is a concubine, The second master and one mother are not compatriots. The second master has been in the northwest all these years, and the relationship between the two is not very close, but after all, in terms of blood, there is only such a biological sister. Although the second master did not say, but I am a wife , I have to help him do everything well.”

"If the second younger sister is kind, she will naturally accept this kindness. If the second younger sister is cold-hearted, a well-educated nanny will see that nothing will happen, and it won't be too bad. The second master wants to be big A person who flexes his muscles will go higher and higher in the future, and he must not let his family members fail to help him and become a burden."

Lin Ning joked: "Sure enough, it's different now that you're married, look at this mouthful of a second master!"

Zhen Li has a thin skin, Lin Ning just said this sentence, before he could say anything else, his cheeks were already flushed, and he was so ashamed that he kept begging for forgiveness and apology.

Lin Ning giggled, let her go, and said, "I remember that there are three girls and four girls in Jia's house? You only give Miss Lin and Miss Two, and the others don't, so you're not afraid of people talking about it?

Zhen Li blinked slyly, "That's why I want to ask the empress for help, and reward it in the name of the empress. In this way, it is the empress who rewarded it, and I didn't want it. Is it fair? Besides, didn’t the old lady and the second wife talk all day about how wonderful Jia Guifei is, how much Jia Guifei is favored, and the house is thanks to Jia Guibin, etc.? They have their own granddaughters, daughters, How can we be used? The fourth girl in the East Mansion is nothing more than that, and the third girl in the second room is Jia Guipin's concubine sister. There is no reason why she doesn't care about the concubine sister, but let us, the brother-in-law next door, take care of it. "

Lin Ning snorted, "Hey, this is a plan to use my name to show off others. It's really promising!"

Zhen Li has had a good relationship with Lin Ning over the years. Knowing that Lin Ningfei was really angry, she acted coquettishly and said, "Isn't this what your mother said earlier? The younger generation has been wronged, so naturally they want to ask the elders to take the lead. It hurts me. I am a granddaughter-in-law, and everyone above me is the elders, so I can't help but use this method to create a good relationship for myself and at the same time create trouble for them."

Lin Ning laughed.This matter is really nothing in the hands of her, a noble concubine in charge of the Six Palaces.

The matter was settled, and they talked about Daiyu again.Lin Ning was full of praise, and Zhen Li's thoughts changed, "If my aunt really likes it, why don't you call her into the palace to talk with my aunt, just treat it as raising a daughter."

Lin Ning glanced at Zhen Li, with a smile in his eyes, "You don't forget to carry the sedan chair for her from time to time, but unfortunately, I don't want her to be my daughter. If she becomes my daughter, why..."

The most important part of the conversation suddenly disappeared, Zhen Li was startled, and suddenly remembered that although Tu Mingzhou and Lin Daiyu were too different in age, he had already designated the granddaughter of the emperor's teacher as his concubine, but Lin Ning still had more than ten years under his knees. What about the second prince?Tu Mingyan's age matches Daiyu's.

Zhen Li rolled her eyes, "Auntie is thinking about..."

Lin Ning stretched out his hand and patted the back of her hand, "What are you thinking, I just said it casually. The child is still young, how can you know what will happen when he grows up. Don't be in a hurry, Miss Lin and Twelve and Seven Years Old , an eight-year-old, and two little bean dings, they haven't yet awakened. Wait a few years and wait and see."

As soon as these words came out, Zhen Li felt confident.

At this time, neither of them knew that the other protagonist of their marriage was stepping on the eunuch's shoulders, leaning on the wall and looking around, and said without hesitation: "Higher, higher, higher! "

The eunuch was not very old, he could be regarded as Tu Mingyan's companion, lacking in strength and foot strength, he tremblingly pushed Tu Mingyan up, his body swayed, but Tu Mingyan kept yelling "higher, no matter how high point".

The eunuch was anxious, he gritted his teeth and got up suddenly, perhaps the movement was too violent, Tu Mingyan was pushed over the wall and fell down!

Coincidentally, Lin Daiyu's kite landed on a big tree by the wall, and the court lady went to find the eunuch who could climb trees. Lin Daiyu kept pulling on the rope below, trying to tear the kite down, but the kite didn't come down. , suddenly fell down from a high wall, a big living person, not much older than her, was served by eunuchs, sprawled on the ground, probably because she touched the string of her kite when she fell, and her waist entangled.

The "eunuch" ate his mouth full of dirt, raised his head, and saw such a dainty and supple face, as if he didn't expect anyone to be there, so he got up in fright, but he moved too much, and the kite The string was still entangled on his body. With this excitement, the kite finally landed with a clatter, but it was already torn by a branch and hit him directly in the face.

Many years later, Tu Mingyan always regretted why he had to climb the wall that day!So much so that the first time I met his hit "goddess", he was so embarrassed and dumbfounded, it was too detrimental to his image.It also made the two of them get together and be ridiculed by the "goddess" from time to time.

Why!The world is hard to buy, I knew it earlier!
