Speaking of Lin Zaozao, a warm smile appeared in Lin Jinwen's eyes.When Gu Qinglin heard the word Zaozao, his heart immediately became urgent. He had never been away from Zaozao for such a long time.

With Xiao Rugui and Lin Jinwen cooperating inside and outside, it was normal for Lin to be brought into the palace early.No one thought that Lin Jinwen would be so bold as to bring the child into the palace.

Now they are more curious about where the child is. After all, it is not easy to find a place to hide the child in the palace.It is normal for a child to cry and make a fuss. If it provokes the patrolling Imperial Forest Army, then things will be difficult.

If Xiao Rugui sent the Imperial Forest Army to guard the child, it would definitely be very eye-catching.For a while, everyone really couldn't think of any place in the palace that could be foolproof.

Lin Jinwen didn't intend to confuse everyone. When he and Gu Qinglin were about to leave, he saw Zhou Rong on the ground and Zhou Xiang who had been huddled in a corner and hadn't said much.

Zhou Rong's face was waxy and pale, and there was no emotion in his eyes. Lin Jinwen thought for a while and said, "Send the fourth prince back to his palace to rest, and wait for the emperor to deal with it." Whether Zhou Rong stabbed Zhou An in front of the emperor depends on the matter. What did the emperor want to do.

After hearing this, Xiao Rugui ordered Zhou Rong to be taken down.Zhou Rong's vengeance has been avenged, his mood is carefree but at a loss, he let the Imperial Forest Army drag him away.

After Zhou Rong left, Lin Jinwen's gaze met Zhou Xiang.

Zhou Xiang swallowed his saliva, shrunk his neck, and looked at Lin Jinwen with surprise, fear and jealousy.Regarding what happened tonight, Zhou Xiang never thought about it. He felt that he might have a stupid head.

It was rare for him to put his heart down and stand on Lin Jinwen's standpoint. If Zhou An was targeting him and these things happened to him, then he would have died long ago.

But even so, he was still a little envious of Lin Jinwen.

Lin Jinwen looked at Zhou Xiang's expression, smiled suddenly, and said very politely: "I'm sorry, third prince, no, I should call you fourth prince, fourth younger brother from now on. I am older than you, and I will be third prince from now on, that is, my elder brother people. I hope you don't mind."

After going through everything just now, Zhou Xiang was still quite afraid of Lin Jinwen's smile in his heart, and always felt that if he smiled, he would be in bad luck.He shook his head quickly and said, "No... I don't mind."

He couldn't help it if he minded, the emperor has already spoken, can he make the emperor change his mind?

"That's good." The smile on the corner of Lin Jinwen's mouth deepened, and he said: "After all, besides me, you are the only prince with healthy limbs and bones left in the palace now. In case something happens to you, you will become a prince." People with short arms and short legs, my reputation as the prince who was just recognized by the emperor is not so good. Those who know know that the first prince and the others are despised by the emperor. They asked for it. Those who don't know may think that I can't tolerate it. What about the princes in the palace?"

"Fortunately, I've always been thick-skinned, and I don't value reputation. The fourth prince doesn't need to worry too much about me." Lin Jinwen said the last two sentences very eeriely.

Zhou Xiang's face became even more bitter. He felt that Lin Jinwen was blatantly threatening him.If he is honest and doesn't act like a demon, he can live a good life. If he is dishonest and has some thoughts in his heart, then he has to lose something.

Maybe it will save lives.

Thinking of this possibility, Zhou Xiang became completely quiet.He still has self-knowledge, with his brain, he really can't compare to Lin Jinwen.This man is so scheming, he can kill and maim himself by using his brain and hands.

What's more, his current status is not very worthy of liking.

Now everything is clear, everything was done by Zhou An, but Zhou An did not admit the matter of Fang Meiren. Concubine Shu is still suspected of murdering the emperor. The emperor obviously does not want to investigate. Concubine Shu is still guilty. Coming out is temporarily impossible.

Facing Lin Jinwen's threat, he decided to choose to shut up temporarily.

Seeing that Zhou Xiang's face turned pale and his eyes were terrified, Lin Jinwen smiled.

He left with Gu Qinglin, Xiao Rugui led people to follow behind them, and the other Yulin soldiers followed Old General Liu to see the noble concubine on the grounds of sending the fourth prince back to the palace.

Ordinarily, it is a bit rude to see the imperial concubine at this time, after all, she is a member of the harem.It was getting late at this time, and as a concubine in the harem, it was really difficult to see foreign ministers.

But Old General Liu really couldn't wait any longer. Tomorrow is New Year's Eve. If he leaves the palace gate today, he will be locked, and the ministers cannot come in and out at will.He is afraid that he will have to live through this year in a very uncomfortable way.

Now there is a reason that the fourth prince is not a reason, so it is good to forcefully go to see him.

@@@

After leaving the warm place in the attic, there were still snowflakes outside, and the eyes were all white.Open your mouth and speak, and the white mist will come out of your mouth.Lin Jinwen had no money and no toys when he was a child. He especially liked to breathe on the window in winter, and then draw various pictures on it with his fingers that he could not understand.

This world is not as developed as the world he is in, but with Gu Qinglin and Lin Zaozao, that's enough.

Thinking of this, Lin Jinwen smiled, he held Gu Qinglin's hand and slowly walked towards Lenggong.

Yes, probably no one thought that Lin Jinwen would put Lin Zaozao in limbo.

This is the most remote and inconspicuous place in the palace, even if Xiao Rugui arranges more imperial guards here, no one will find out.I'm very safe here early on.

What's more, just in case, Liu Junxi, through Xiao Rugui, dispatched some trusted northern troops from outside the palace to guard here.These northern soldiers have all seen blood. If those people in the cold palace don't have eyes, they will die.

Lin Jinwen and Gu Qing arrived at the Leng Palace, and the Imperial Forest Army guarded the surroundings. Seeing them appear, each of them heaved a sigh of relief.

Speaking of concubine Xian, An Zhaoyi, and Concubine Qi who were sent in just now, plus the northern army inside, they also had various guesses in their hearts. Now that they saw Xiao Rugui appearing, their hearts finally settled down.

When they learned that everyone was safe and sound inside, Lin Jinwen and Gu Qinglin breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly opened the door and walked in.

The Leng Palace is very big, and it is very lively tonight. From a distance, some people can be heard crying, some singing, and some shouting that the emperor is coming.

In a place not too far away from the door, Lin Jinwen saw Liu Junxi guarding the door.

When he seized the town government's mansion, he naturally brought the Lin family along with him.He brought Yuzhu, Sanqi and other people from Lin Jinwen's courtyard into the palace, and then stayed here and waited.

Apart from wanting to personally ensure Lin Zaozao's safety, he also wanted to see Xiao Rugui as soon as possible.

Seeing Liu Junxi, although Xiao Rugui had no expression on his face, his pace couldn't help but slowed down by two points.In an instant, he distanced himself from Lin Jinwen and Gu Qinglin.

Liu Junxi's eyes lit up, brighter than the snowflakes falling from the sky.He tried his best to bear it, but he couldn't hold back a hearty smile from the corner of his mouth.

Lin Jinwen is now focused on Lin Zaozao, and doesn't care about Liu Junxi's performance at all.

He casually asked if it's alright early.Liu Junxi didn't answer, and Lin Jinwen didn't think about him answering, so he grabbed Gu Qinglin and strolled in.

Outside the door, Liu Junxi looked at Xiao Rugui's handsome face, and the snowflakes on his eyes, he really wanted to reach out and wipe it away for Xiao Rugui.But Liu Junxi knew that the occasion was wrong, so he finally resisted not to do that, and asked with a light smile, "Are you okay?"

On a cold day, Xiao Rugui only felt warm in his heart, as if drinking a bowl of mutton soup full of chili peppers, he felt extremely comfortable.

He looked at Liu Junxi and smiled slightly: "It's okay."

The four eyes met, and the heat inside seemed to scald the snow around him.

A charcoal fire was lit inside the door, and the windows were opened a little to let in the air.The house should have been cleaned specially by Xiao Rugui's orders, at least it was still very clean compared to other places in the Leng Palace.

Yuzhu and Sanqi looked at Lin Jinwen and Gu Qinglin with a little bit of surprise, but Wang Po was a little calmer.

Wang Po was sent to the palace by Liu Junxi before the banquet, and Yu Zhu, Sanqi Shuisu and others were brought here, and they were brought after the Lin family was seized, so they were naturally terrified.

Although no one told her exactly what happened, judging from the guards outside the cold palace and the surrounding soldiers, something big must have happened in the palace.

Seeing Gu Qinglin and Lin Jinwen appear safely, their dazed hearts finally calmed down.

No matter what happened outside, if Gu Qinglin and Lin Jinwen are fine, it means they are safe.

Did Wang Po see people who lived and died at the border, she suppressed all doubts in her heart and said softly: "The young master fell asleep inside."

Lin Zaozao was quite well-behaved, except that after entering the palace, she might find that the place she slept in was different from before, so she groaned twice.After Wang Po put the quilt brought back from Lin's house on the bed and coaxed him, he smelled a familiar smell and quickly calmed down.

Lin Jinwen and Gu Qinglin walked over, Lin Zaozao was sleeping soundly under the warm blanket.

Lin Jinwen looked at Gu Qinglin who was watching Lin Zaozao, who had stopped moving, and said with a smile: "This is the Leng Palace after all, there is no earth dragon, so take him back to the East Palace."

Gu Qinglin came back to his senses when he heard the word Donggong, he hummed, wrapped Lin Zaozao in the quilt, and then covered his cloak on the quilt.

The East Palace is some distance away from the Leng Palace, the snow is so strong and the wind is so tight, and Lin Zaozao was born prematurely, so it's better to be careful.

After hugging Lin Zaozao, Gu Qinglin looked at Lin Jinwen, and Lin Jinwen nodded to him.

Wang Po Yuzhu and the others were a little shocked, they seemed to have heard the word Donggong.But what happened specifically, no one dared to ask at this time.

The group of them tremblingly followed Lin Jinwen and Gu Qinglin and were escorted by the Imperial Forest Army towards the East Palace.

@@@@

Arriving at the Eastern Palace, An Ji, the chief eunuch of the Internal Affairs Office, was waiting in front of the hall with his people. When he saw Lin Jinwen, his face was wrinkled with a smile, and he hurriedly saluted, "See Your Highness the Crown Prince, Young Master."

Because Gu Qinglin hadn't been canonized yet, he didn't know how to address him, so he called him son.

The eyes of Yu Zhu and the others were about to pop out. How could Lin Jinwen become a prince and Gu Qinglin a son in just one day.

Lin Jinwen raised his eyelids and said: "The emperor's imperial edict has not yet been issued, but you, the prince, have called for it, so you are not afraid of violating the emperor's taboo?"

Anji and Lin Jinwen had never met face to face, and the rumors in the past could not be fully believed, otherwise Lin Jinwen would not be standing in front of him today.

An Ji couldn't figure out Lin Jinwen's temper at the moment, wondering whether he was satisfied with what he said or whether he wanted to flatter him more ruthlessly.

But after all he is an old man in the palace, he hurriedly said: "Although the emperor's imperial decree has not been issued, but the verbal orders have arrived, they are all golden words, and the title of slave is not taboo."

Lin Jinwen laughed, raised his eyebrows and said lightly, "Lead the way."

Anji responded, and welcomed him to the main hall bedroom that had been tidied up.He had heard from Wang Jin'an before that Lin Jinwen liked his husband very much.

So the main hall is naturally prepared for Gu Qinglin.

The ground dragon in the bedroom has already burned up, and the temperature is much warmer than that outside.Gu Qinglin took off the cloak, revealing the quilt that wrapped Lin Zaozao.Open the top, revealing Lin Zaozao's flushed little face.

He was still soundly asleep.

Lin Jinwen said softly: "It's getting late today, and so many things have happened, let Wang Po take you to the side hall to rest early."

Too many things happened, he and Gu Qinglin naturally have something to talk about.

Gu Qinglin hummed, and handed Lin Zaozao to Wang Po.

An Ji hurriedly said: "Prince, Young Master, the servant has already ordered the servants to boil the hot water. If the Crown Prince and Young Master need anything, just ask the servant."

Lin Jinwen hummed, and Anji resigned knowingly.

Naturally, there were maids and eunuchs in the East Palace, Lin Jinwen just wanted to lie on the bed and rest quickly, and Gu Qinglin was also used to Yuzhu and the others serving them, so he didn't summon these serving servants.

Anyway, we will meet sometime later.

Lin Jinwen wanted to take a couple's bath with Gu Qinglin, but it was not suitable at this time, and he didn't force him, so he took a bath first, and then Gu Qinglin went to take a bath by himself.

When Gu Qinglin came out, Lin Jinwen was sitting in front of the mirror in his underwear, wondering what he was thinking.

Hearing the noise, he turned around and saw that Gu Qinglin's hair was still wet, so he got up and let him sit in front of the mirror, while he took a thin towel and wiped it carefully for him.

It's very warm outside the hall, but it doesn't feel cold.

Neither of them spoke while wiping their hair. When the hair was almost dry, Lin Jinwen threw the thin towel on the shelf beside him, and suddenly pulled Gu Qinglin into his arms.

Gu Qinglin was taken aback, his stature looked thin but he was actually very strong, Lin Jinwen swayed twice and almost didn't throw him off.However, he still endured and hugged him to the bed.

Lin Jinwen looked at Gu Qinglin and said softly, "Is there anything you want to ask?"

Gu Qinglin looked up at him, he had so many things to say and ask, but he didn't know where to start.

Lin Jinwen stroked his brows and said in a low voice: "You should be able to guess what I'm going to do, otherwise you wouldn't have helped me, and you wouldn't have given birth prematurely because of the pressure in your heart."

Gu Qinglin froze, and Lin Jinwen laughed softly in his ear, and he said vaguely: "The last straw that crushed the eldest prince was made so smoothly with your help. Although you didn't say it, But I know it all, and I trust you as much as you know I trust me."

What Lin Jinwen said was referring to the matter between Wen Fang and the First Prince. If it wasn't for this matter, the emperor might not have rejected the First Prince so quickly.

Gu Qinglin snorted and said, "You know everything?" After saying this, he smiled wryly. The second prince, who is so thoughtful, lost so embarrassingly in front of Lin Jinwen, what he did must be He couldn't escape Lin Jinwen's eyes.

Thinking about it now, before Wen Fang's incident happened, when he went to Wen's house, Lin Jinwen stopped him once. The child was already a few months old at that time, and they were all afraid that something would happen to the child.

However, under his insistence, Lin Jinwen still breathed a sigh of relief. At that time, this person knew what he wanted to do, but he didn't stop him, and he didn't even blame him for it after the child was born prematurely.

Thinking of these, Gu Qinglin closed his eyes, then he opened them and looked at Lin Jinwen and said, "Don't you think I went too far with Wen Fang?"

Lin Jinwen smiled, and he said, "You drugged her and the First Prince?"

Gu Qinglin shook his head, of course he wouldn't do that.

Lin Jinwen said: "I know you have a reason for doing this, so can you tell me now?"

Gu Qinglin was completely unable to use words to describe what he was feeling in his heart at this moment. He had been thinking about this matter all the time. He was afraid that Lin Jinwen would think that his thoughts were deep and untrustworthy. He did not expect that the person Lin Jinwen trusted most was him.

Lin Jinwen looked at Gu Qinglin, he knew this person well, he knew that Gu Qinglin would never hurt others for no reason, only when others hurt him first, would he find a chance to fight back.

Lin Jinwen understood this, so he didn't intervene in some matters at all, and let Gu Qinglin solve everything by himself.
