Ten Miles of Spring Breeze in Red Mansions

The next morning, Yan Ji felt that Lin Daiyu must be angry.

She got up later than usual, and then took Lin Jue to have dinner with Ming Yilan, instead of getting up early to eat with him as usual.

When he came down, she was walking around the garden with the cat in her arms, and she didn't come to greet him.

At night, only the study room was still open to him.

Ming Yilan pretended not to know, and didn't intervene. Instead, Nanny Li persuaded her, "Even if grandma is angry, she will wait until the Princess is not around. If she sees her like this, what should I do if there is a suspicion?"

"Mother won't care about these small things." Lin Daiyu said, "It's also a reminder to him, such things leave me as a fool, so it's possible that he thinks I'm such a fool, and I don't care about it just because of an old maidservant. It's heavy."

Nanny Li sighed, "It's up to you. The old slave gave Xue Yuan medicine for dumbness and sent it back. If I change my mind from now on, I can live in peace besides not being able to speak."

"Mom is kind, that's good. If she's having trouble, don't be lenient."

After three or four days, Ming Yilan made an excuse to enter the palace to greet the Queen Mother and return to the princess's mansion, leaving the young couple still in the cold war.

Lin Daiyu is normal, she should eat and sleep, as if there is no such person as Yan Ji in the house.

Yan Ji hit a snag a few times, then stayed in the study and stopped coming, the atmosphere in the mansion became more and more depressed, even Lin Daiyu and the big maids dared not talk, laugh or make noise.

Lin Daiyu was holding the book in her hand, but she didn't read it at all. She wondered if she had done too much, which made Yan Ji angry, but she didn't want to let it go.

At the end of autumn, it was getting dark very early, and Biling put on extra lights for her. The room was bright, but also cold.

On the wall at the side is a kite newly painted by Uncle Lu this year, and next to the Baibao Pavilion is the revolving lantern that he received when he went to Zhuangzi that day.

Lin Daiyu sighed silently.

Suddenly Baibai and Gouzi barked and rubbed against the visitor, who sat quietly opposite Lin Daiyu, looked at her for a while, Lin Daiyu looked at him sadly, her lips moved, but she still didn't speak.

"It's my fault, I shouldn't have kept this from you." Yan Ji pulled Lin Daiyu's catkin and held it in his hand, "I just ask you not to be angry with me again."

Lin Daiyu said, "It's not just because of this incident that I'm angry. We are husband and wife, what can't we talk about? Since you know this matter, if you think it's difficult to deal with it, just tell me. Am I making trouble for no reason? People? Think about it again, if Madam Li didn't find the book and the people behind the scenes came calling, wouldn't it be a complete loss?"

Yan Ji opened his mouth to explain, but Lin Daiyu turned her head lightly, "I know you men are all promising, and even if Madam Li can't find it, you will have someone behind you. But I still say that, we are husband and wife, we are husband and wife, and we don't want to have a word. It's a matter of discussion, so you have to be scheming like this. You don't believe me, and you don't need to tell me about the outside world. Anyway, you think so. You think Xueyuan and I are older, and I think she is more important than you. "

"I'm just afraid that you will be sad, and I want to let you know slowly. If I tell you this suddenly, you have to believe it?" Yan Ji's tone was soft, as if coaxing a child.

Lin Daiyu suddenly withdrew her hand, her face full of anger, "Why don't you believe it? Of course I believe what you said. If you don't believe me, I believe you, then I can't do it now, Biling, please go back to the study."

She didn't believe it, she didn't get Yan Ji in, she got herself in, and she didn't want to look Yan Ji straight in the face, her eyes turned red and tears fell down her cheeks.

Yan Ji waved Bi Ling back, sat closer, and forced Lin Daiyu to come over and said, "That's not what I mean. You know I've been used to being alone since I was a child, and I inevitably want to solve things by myself. This matter I've already planned everything, but I just want Madam Li to tell you that I have even arranged for the people at the gate of Biling's house, just waiting to lure the snake out of the hole."

"You mean I startled the snake?" Lin Daiyu slapped him back with her elbow, but didn't break free.

Yan Ji leaned into her ear and said, "It's all my fault, I will tell you everything in the future, okay? Don't be angry, you said it, we are husband and wife, there is no overnight feud between husband and wife."

Lin Daiyu sniffed and didn't speak.

"Like a child. There are some things I don't want to tell you, because I'm afraid it will dirty your ears. What do you want a man for? Isn't it just for the door." Yan Ji wiped her tears, "Mother will follow you to me Shameless, is it enough to vent your anger? If you are still angry, just beat me and scold me, but don't cry."

Lin Daiyu choked up and said, "It's your fault, why didn't you tell me. Am I really useless like a child?"

"No, no, Yu'er handled this matter very well. Give me another chance, and I promise you that I won't hide it from you in the future." Yan Ji kissed her finger, which is what he often does , is always very light touch away.

Lin Daiyu reluctantly nodded, "Let's see how you behave."

After the cold war, there was something special about it. The next day, Lin Daiyu yawned and hung a jade pendant around Yan Ji's waist. Yan Ji said, "If you are sleepy, sleep a little longer."

"Of course I have to sleep. Being an official is really not fun." Lin Daiyu looked her up and down, "Okay, let's go."

"Are you not reluctant at all? Just drive me away like this?"

"If you don't leave, you won't have time to have breakfast. It's bad for your spleen and stomach to always eat in the car. It's a good thing you don't have to go to court, or you'll have to get up before dawn like your father."

Yan Ji kissed her on the top of her hair, "When I come back to eat, we haven't eaten together for a few days."

"Understood, do what you like the most." Lin Daiyu pushed him, watched him go out, went back to take off his coat, and climbed back to bed to catch up on sleep.

Yan Ji had people from the Princess's Mansion and Guang Wang's Mansion to help, and he soon found out that the person who went to pick up Xue Yuan had something to do with Zhongyi Wang's Mansion.

Ming Yilan said, "You don't need to intervene in this matter. Since he doesn't want to be a prince, let's wait and see."

She went directly to the palace and complained to the queen mother, "Although he is a prince, our family is not a poor family, is it? He has the same surname, so it is obvious that he bribed someone to frame my son."

In the past, when the queen mother was the queen, the queen was anxious, and Ming Yilan helped to persuade her, but now it's the other way around, and she has become the queen mother to persuade Ming Yilan, but the words came out with some jokes, "He just took you for a knife, At that time, you blatantly helped the emperor, and you didn’t allow His Royal Highness to vent your anger? It’s up to you.”

"Now that His Majesty is so powerful, is it true that he has been enduring him?"

"The emperor is not Zheng Bo, and Prince Zhongyi is not Gong Shuduan."

"Of course not. He was born by a mother anyway, so he deserves it?"

The queen mother laughed, and ordered someone to bring lotus seed soup to her, "Quiet the fire, the Zhen family is about to collapse, the building is about to collapse, maybe a few people will be killed."

Ming Yilan said, "In a trance, there are rumors outside that Shu and the eldest princess are going to get married, but is there such a thing? If the queen mother wants to vent her anger, marrying her in Beijing is the same. If she is released, I will give you a Monster, why don't you go to Tatar to kill her?"

"She's quite courageous. She pretended to be crazy just because she guessed about you." The queen mother said, "That's another matter. Sitting in this position, your enemies are everywhere. The Hou family and the Tatars There are some deals in private, the Hou family will supply some food and grass, even if Shuhe wants to marry this time, the Hou family will probably find a way to make Tatar change his mind."

"Four kings and eight princes, no one can worry about it." Ming Yilan said, "No one is smart. How did they help the Ming family fight the country?"

"The gentleman's marsh has dried up for five generations. Now it's time for his descendants to be unworthy. It's just the reincarnation of heaven." The queen mother took a sip of tea, "It's the Lin family who came out like this. The emperor ordered Lin Yushi to go to the south of the Yangtze River Check the Zhen family's errands."

"Your Majesty is a young man. Naturally, he likes to employ young people. Those old fellows can be regarded as sensible." When Ming Yilan mentioned Lin Yuan, he couldn't help but think of his nephew Ming Boyu who was far away at Yanmen Pass. , "I don't know if Boyu is doing well in the army."

The queen mother laughed, "This slicker can't be said to be crying that the prince is cruel. This is very good. Let Boyu also contribute to the emperor in the future. They are cousins. Brother Ji is cousins, right?"

"The child is grown up, how can he be called Jigeer Jigeer, Gui Shilang gave it the name Mingde."

"The way of university lies in Mingde. It's not like Gui Shilang can take it out." The Queen Mother looked at Ming Yilan and said, "Once you have the words, you are an adult. In the future, don't beg your family because of your heartache. "

There was something in these words that Ming Yilan didn't understand. She wasn't someone who didn't know how to ask questions. She just smiled and said, "What's the use of being distressed. The Queen Mother still feels sorry for His Majesty's hard work. Don't you want to be the emperor?"

"You, you are the only one who dares to say such things to me. Show me some upright family. I have to prepare a husband's family for Shuhe."

"Those who are greedy for wealth and honor are easy to be stupid, and those who have an upright and strict family style, even if she does something inappropriate..." Ming Yilan suddenly stopped in the middle of speaking, "The eldest princess must have a princess mansion."

A sarcasm appeared on the Queen Mother's face, "It won't be soon. My brother made a mistake. Although it doesn't hurt my sister, if it is involved, I can't let it go lightly."

The knife has been hung up, waiting to cut the rope for execution.

After Lin Yuan left for a few days, the members of the Zhen family arrived in the capital. They were fairly well informed, knowing that Mrs. Wang had become a patriarch, and Mrs. Xing had no relationship with them, so they approached the Shi family.

Because of Shi Xiangyun, the historian has only been a man with his tail curled up for many years, so how dare he accept the things that the Zhen family wants to deposit.It was not easy for the daughters to marry good families, and Princess Boping's explanation was credited with a few words.Now the princess's in-laws are in charge of the Zhen family's case, even if they dare to accept it, they won't accept it, otherwise, wouldn't it be that the monk's house and the princess's house are fighting.

The servants of Zhen's family had their doors shut, and went to the Wang's house again. Wang Ziteng could go to court, let alone accept him.The Zhen family had no choice but to go back to the Jia family for help.

I don't want Mrs. Xing's eyes to be bright when she heard about these gold and silver things, and she responded in a hurry.By the time Wang Xifeng found out, it was already too late.

Wang Xifeng said anxiously, "How can my wife accept their things? The higher ups are watching!"

"What is it? I haven't seen it before." Madam Xing's beating was out of the idea of ​​stealing it. Is it possible that who would squat at the door of Jia's house every day to see it? Such things are private houses, and they will not worry about it for the rest of their lives. .

Seeing that she was obsessed with money, Wang Xifeng had to hurry back to find Jia Lian to discuss.

Jia Lian is still in charge of household affairs, so he happens to be at home today.

The matter was very important, she didn't let Xiaohong follow, she stretched out her hand to push the door, not wanting to hear anyone talking in the room, she watched no one was around, so she stood at the door and listened attentively.

Just now, she was walking fast, her body was a little hot, and she was sweating thinly, but now it was like a basin of cold water on her head, which made her shiver.She slowly raised her hand, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and quietly walked back to the gate of the courtyard.

Seeing this, Xiaohong asked, "What's wrong with grandma?"

After all, they are confidantes, especially Lin Zhixiao's family and Xiaohong are begging to be hired out, and they have no intention of being Jia Lian's aunt like Ping'er.Wang Xifeng valued her very much in recent years, so he held back his anger and did not show her face, and sneered, "Your second master is busy, let's go in later."
