Master Zhao at the foot of Mount Qingcheng

Zhao Xuan was very resistant to the capital, and it took several days before he started his journey. By the time he strolled slowly all the way to the capital of Great Yin, it was almost the wedding date agreed in the letter, and it was already winter.

Although it's not yet snowing time, the cold wind can still make people shiver.

The Duke's Mansion is located in a remote place, quiet and quiet, no one visits.

Firstly, in the Great Yin Dynasty, this duke was the honor passed down from his ancestors. It is said that the ancestors of the Lin family had helped the dying Emperor of the Great Yin, so he was awarded a hereditary title, which has been handed down to the descendants until now.Second, Grandpa Guo keeps a low profile on weekdays. His two sons, the elder one is a sick child and the younger one is a nerd, can't cause any major troubles.

Therefore, there were very few people who communicated with Duke Lin's mansion. When others mentioned it, they would always say "Is the prince still sick?"

In the Duke's mansion, the eldest son Lin Xiji's room had already been lit with a stove, and it was full of warmth.He was wearing a fox fur cloak, leaning on the couch, with a game of chess in front of him, and Lin Chaoyu in unlined clothes was sitting opposite him.

The two are equal, they both pay attention to the overall situation and are thoughtful, but they are somewhat different.For example, Lin Chaoyu would sometimes intentionally reveal his flaws and lure the enemy deep, and every time he attacked, he would hit the opponent's vital points to show his sharpness, while Lin Xiji tended to defend, and would kill with one blow when he saw the opportunity.

The two played chess all day, neither of them said a word, but the childish voice broke the deadlock: "Daddy, uncle, Ah Wan wants to eat sticky cake."

Outside the door, a girl doll carved in pink and jade ran up to the two of them on short legs, kicked off her shoes and got into Lin Xiji's arms, and using both hands and feet, she crawled over and closed the open window, facing Lin Xiji pursed her lips: "Daddy is disobedient, he still opens the window when it's so cold, what should I do if it's too cold?"

Lin Xiji's brows and eyes were full of tenderness, and he rubbed Lin Wan's little head. Lin Wan turned back to Lin Chaoyu and said, "Uncle, too, don't close the windows for daddy, aren't you cold?"

"Uncle is not afraid of the cold." Lin Chaoyu's heart melted half when he met his niece, who was so cute. He flicked her forehead and said with a smile, "It's my negligence. I will take you to buy sticky cakes later. OK?"

The big eyes of the Lin family are definitely inherited from their ancestors. At this time, Lin Wan was covering her forehead, and those big eyes similar to Lin Chaoyu's were bent with a smile, as if the whole room was lit up: "Okay, okay, uncle is the best!"

"Don't buy it for her." The Crown Princess Zhou Yun'er arrived before she heard her. Her appearance was not outstanding at first glance, but it made people feel heroic and intelligent, and the more she looked, the more pleasing she was.

Seeing her enter the room, she said: "Don't spoil her too much, I've eaten so many sticky cakes today, and I won't be able to eat any more dinner."

Lin Wan pouted, Zhou Yun'er hugged her from Lin Xiji's arms, Lin Chaoyu winked at Lin Wan: "Uncle will take you to buy it tomorrow, we will buy the most delicious sticky cake in the imperial city."

"Speak well." Lin Wan stretched out her fleshy little hand, "Lagougou, I can't disappear for days like before. Uncle, where did you go before?"

"Your uncle is going to prepare your birthday gift for you." Zhou Yun'er immediately took the conversation, looked at Lin Chaoyu, and asked, "Is that right?"

"En." Lin Chaoyu lied without changing his expression, and nodded without hesitation.

On the side, Lin Xiji made a move on the chessboard: "I would like to know whether it is your intention or the emperor's intention to try so hard to bring in Qingchengjiao. Maybe we should have a good talk."

"Whose opinion is not important." Lin Chaoyu said, "This matter has nothing to do with elder brother, so there is no need to get involved, just like I never asked if the counselor behind the third prince is you."

Lin Xiji paused, sighed slightly, and said in a low and soft voice, "Let's not talk about that... Are you really going to marry a man? Although it's just a stopgap measure, it's just nonsense."

"Uncle wants to get married!" Lin Wan didn't understand "Qingcheng Sect" or "Third Prince", so she understood "married" and rushed to hug Lin Chaoyu's thigh, raising her delicate little hands face, "Do I want to have an aunt?"

"Ah."

Lin Wan asked: "Is my aunt pretty?"

"He." Lin Chaoyu lowered his eyes, smiled softly, and answered irrelevantly, "He is a very good person."

The atmosphere was silent for a while, Zhou Yun'er and Lin Xiji looked at each other, both of them were surprised.

Zhou Yun'er wanted to take Lin Wan away, so she took Lin Wan's hand who was clamoring to see her aunt: "My aunt hasn't come yet, I'll see you later, mother will accompany you out to play now, okay?"

Lin Wan obediently said: "Yes."

As soon as the words fell, there was a masked person waiting outside the door, whispering: "My lord, Master Zhao is almost here."

Everyone saw that Lin Chaoyu seemed to be a different person in an instant. If he was calm and calm just now, he is now like a cheerful stupefied young man who found a big cloak from Lin Xiji's closet without notice. Go up, wrap yourself tightly and make yourself look thinner: "I still have something to do, so I'll go first."

After all, he strode out of the house.

Lin Wan was obviously stunned by Lin Chaoyu's face-changing speed: "Uncle just said that he is not afraid of the cold..."

Lin Xiji: "Ahem."

Zhou Yun'er: "My lord."

Lin Xiji covered her mouth and coughed for a while, Zhou Yun'er stepped forward to support the other party, and the other party patted her hands to indicate that there was no problem, don't worry.

"Ah Wan." Lin Xiji called Lin Wan to him, "From now on, your uncle will play house with us, and he will pretend to be a scholar."

"Like just now?"

"Yes. This play house takes a long, long time to play. In the game, my uncle has always been like this from before to now... Only we know about this game, so we can't tell others."

Over there, Zhao Xuan and Tang Feng walked around enough before arriving at the Duke's Mansion.Zhao Xuan wanted to climb over the wall to get in, but Tang Feng forced him back with a hidden weapon when he flew into the air: "What are you doing?"

"What are you doing in a sneaky way? It looks like a thief. If you want to leave, you have to go through the front door openly. After all, it belongs to your future husband..." Tang Feng stopped immediately, "Okay, okay, I won't say anything That's it."

Tang Feng didn't speak, but he moved quickly. He walked to the red-painted gate and knocked on the door. Soon a porter came to open the door. He yawned and said, "Is there something wrong?"

Tang Feng smiled: "We are from Qingcheng Sect, and we are here to discuss marriage with Second Young Master Lin."

As soon as the words came out, the concierge froze, the drowsiness disappeared and the person woke up, looked at the two people outside the door, and turned sideways respectfully to let a way out: "Please come in."

Tang Feng tapped his palms with a fan: "Oh, it seems that the entire Duke's Mansion knows about you two. Do you think they were used by the emperor to trap you in your cage, or did they join hands with the emperor to trap you in your cage? "

Tang Feng did not shy away from speaking, and Zhao Xuan did the same, saying: "It doesn't matter, we cooperate with each other to get what we need, and I can't be trapped here."

Tang Feng secretly observed the servants who kept their heads down and led the way without speaking, thinking deeply.

While talking, the two were brought to the hall, and Lin Chaoyu came wrapped up in a thick bag: "Young Xia Zhao! Young Xia Tang!"

Tang Feng waved his hand to greet him, and Lin Chaoyu saluted him, and he couldn't wait to go to Zhao Xuan's side: "Zhao Shaoxia, when we parted last time, I believed that our fate had not arrived, and we would meet again soon. It's God's will, we met again so soon, it's us who are destined to meet thousands of miles away."

Zhao Xuan: "..."

Lin Chaoyu's eyes were very sincere.

Tang Feng couldn't hold back his smile, it was already the limit of his patience.

"Uncle!" Lin Wan reckoned that Zhou Yun'er came to look for Lin Chaoyu again while Zhou Yun'er was busy. Seeing a stranger stop and salute first, she then grabbed Lin Chaoyu's thick big cloak and said curiously, "I just met Shang Yue. Sister, she said you went to see my aunt, why didn't I see it."

Lin Chaoyu picked up Xiaotuanzi and introduced him, "This is my elder brother's daughter, Lin Wan. Ah Wan, this is Tang Feng, Brother Tang."

"Hi." Tang Feng posed coquettishly to the pretty little girl, "In the future, you can play with Brother Tang, Brother Tang can tell stories, he can tell all kinds of stories, especially the stories about the scholar and the vixen. "

Zhao Xuan glanced at Tang Feng coolly: You are here to trick me, right?

Tang Feng grew up with Zhao Xuan when he was young, and he knew how to point it out. Every time, Zhao Xuan was helpless and helpless. For example, this time, Tang Feng made fun of Zhao Xuan enough. Apart from gritting his teeth, Zhao Xuan could only I made another note of "beating Tang Feng violently" in my heart.

"This..." Lin Chaoyu looked at Zhao Xuan, pursed his lips, and smiled naively, "This is Zhao Xuan who wants to marry my uncle."

Lin Wan was confused for a moment, squinted her small eyes and poked her head towards Zhao Xuan, then frowned and pondered for a long time, lying next to Lin Chaoyu's ear and whispered: "Uncle, Auntie looks like a man, ang ...like a handsome man."

Zhao Xuan: "..."

How could Zhao Xuan and Tang Feng not hear Lin Wan's whispers because of their high martial arts skills? Now Tang Feng laughed so hard that tears came out.

Lin Chaoyu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Shaoxia Zhao is a man, and Ah Wan can also be called uncle in the future."

Lin Wan Baozi's face was all wrinkled: "But, shouldn't my uncle's daughter-in-law be called my aunt?"

This little girl is so talented, she didn't worry about why men and men can get married, but instead wondered why her uncle's daughter-in-law should be called uncle.

Zhao Xuan said with a straight face: "Call me brother."

"But..." Lin Wan was still struggling, "Shouldn't uncle's daughter-in-law be called aunt?"

Zhao Xuan: "Your uncle and I are not really married."

"It's not true?" Lin Wan repeated, as if struck by lightning, she pouted again and her long eyelashes were covered with tears, "My little aunt...is there any more, I've been looking forward to it for a long time..."

Zhao Xuan: "..."

Zhao Xuan: "Forget it, call it whatever you want."

You can't argue with a child. Zhao Xuan has been really aggrieved recently. His temper has been tempered a lot by Mrs. Yin, Tang Feng and Lin Wan, but he got very angry.Probably because of bad luck, I have to go out as little as possible after that, and I have to go to the pharmacy to get medicine for reducing fire.

Tang Feng was sitting on a chair beside him, rubbing his cheeks - his face was sore after holding back his laughter for a long time.

Lin Chaoyu didn't show it on the face, but he was thinking in his heart that he must buy sticky cakes for Ah Wan tomorrow. As expected of his own niece, he would buy her as much as she wanted!
