"Where did it come from?"

Lin Lixia's heart trembled. She couldn't figure out whether this cloth was sent by Ji Shen?

Or did the old lady ask Ji Shen for it?

Qian Duojin looked at Aunt Rong who was eavesdropping and said, "Aunt Rong, I want to talk to Li Xia about something personal. Li Xia is thin-skinned."

Aunt Rong immediately realized that she didn't want her to continue listening.

"Girl, let me go to the kitchen and have a look." When Nanny Rong went out, she did not forget to send out all the other servants in the house.

Seeing Aunt Rong leaving, Qian Duojin spoke again: "Li Xia, I don't know when grandma told the emperor."

"Sister-in-law, did my elder brother tell you?" Lin Lixia was surprised for a moment.

Seeing Qian Duojin's half-smiling eyes, Lin Lixia immediately understood.

"Uncle Qian has returned to court?"

"Yes!" Qian Duojin couldn't help but laugh when he saw Lin Lixia reacting quickly.

"My father went up to the court to thank him and saw the emperor's face clearly. As soon as he stood up, he was so frightened that he knelt down again."

Lin Lixia suddenly had a picture in her mind.

I couldn't help but laugh too, "Then did Uncle Qian reprimand my eldest brother?"

Qian Duojin shook his head.

"My father is a sensible person. He knows that your eldest brother didn't say anything. The emperor must have given the order."

Lin Lixia asked again, "Did he threaten Uncle Qian to keep the secret?"

"No!" Qian Duojin rubbed his belly with a gentle smile on his face.

"Lixia, have you ever thought that the emperor might already know that you know his identity?"

"Why do you say that?" Lin Lixia's heart trembled.

I can't figure out how Ji Shen figured out that she knew his identity.

Qian Duojin smiled and said: "Li Xia, the fabrics he sent are rare fabrics in the palace and cannot be worn by concubines other than noble concubines."

Lin Lixia gritted her teeth, her mind was in chaos, and she couldn't figure out who was performing for whom?

"Sister-in-law, you are pregnant now and it is difficult for you to do needlework. After giving birth, you have to focus on the child. There is no need to prepare a wedding dress."

Anyway, she didn't plan to get married.

Qian Duojin laughed, "Li Xia, you feel sorry for me, I understand in my heart."

"Our mother passed away early. They say a sister-in-law is like a mother. Even if grandma doesn't say anything, I will prepare everything for you."

Hearing what Qian Duojin said, Lin Lixia felt warm and moved in her heart.

She also knew in her heart that Qian Duojin was willing to be nice to her because he really liked her eldest brother.

She takes advantage of her elder brother.

"Sister-in-law, there is no rush for my marriage. I will prepare it for my sister Qingyou and my second brother first. I don't want you to embroider it by yourself, why don't we ask the embroiderer to do it?"

Hearing Lin Lixia's straightforward words, Qian Duojin blushed uncomfortably.

"Lixia, is your mouth covered with honey?"

Lin Lixia laughed, took Qian Duojin's hand and said, "Sister-in-law, tell the truth."

Qian Duojin felt warm in her heart. She was so lucky to marry into such a good family as the Lin family.

"Li Xia, I will find the best embroiderer to embroider your and Qingyou's wedding clothes. However, you two need to embroider a little bit."

"Okay!" Lin Lixia agreed, but she was still thinking about something else.

She didn't want to go back to Beijing to celebrate her birthday.

I don’t want to let the sheep fall into the wolf’s mouth.

But there has to be a suitable saying.

"Sister-in-law, how many days can you stay in Zizhu City?"

"Your elder brother said, take a day off and go to Qingzhu City the day after tomorrow."

"Sister-in-law, I'll take you there!" Lin Lixia's eyes were filled with joy, and she spoke first of all, something that her sister-in-law couldn't refuse.

"You just said that a sister-in-law is like a mother. You can celebrate my birthday and I will come back."

Looking at Lin Lixia's cunning eyes, Qian Duojin reacted after thinking about it for a while.

"Li Xia, if you don't go back to Beijing to celebrate your birthday, are you hiding from the emperor?"

"Yes, avoid him!" Lin Lixia said frankly: "He is becoming more and more unruly in his behavior. We cannot let the reputation of our Lin family girls be damaged."

Qian Duojin's mouth twitched, unable to expose Lin Lixia's excuse for not being serious.

But he couldn't bear to refute Lin Lixia, so he agreed with a smile.

"Li Xia, send someone to deliver a message to grandma."

Beijing.

Ji Shen got the letter from Ying Zhong and learned that Lin Lixia had gone to Qingzhu City.

He was so angry that he broke a fine white jade inkstone.

Taofu, who had been fined half a year's salary, did not dare to come up with blind ideas this time.

He could only secretly send someone to invite Xu Tianxing to the palace.

After understanding the whole story, Xu Tianxing suppressed a smile and suggested: "Your Majesty, you pushed Miss Lin too hard."

"Is it too tight?" Ji Shen was very dissatisfied with this statement.

"Your Majesty, Miss Lin likes freedom." Xu Tianxing said, "You have to do what she likes so that she doesn't feel restricted by being with you."

"She likes freedom!" Ji Shen agreed with Xu Tianxing's words.

Thinking of the second half of the sign, Ji Shen did not dare to push Lin Lixia too hard.

He sent someone to hurry up and deliver the birthday gift he prepared to Qingzhu City.

Qingzhu City.

Lin Lixia's birthday banquet was not a big one. It was an ordinary family banquet, and Li Hu and his wife were invited.

Mr. Li Hu is the new county magistrate of Qingzhu City, and he can be said to be Lin Lidong's good assistant.

After a family dinner, it became clear that Wu Xian Cheng was a well-rounded and lively person.

I wonder if it was because of the shock Yun Wuhen gave Li Hu that made Li Hu and his wife particularly flatter her eldest brother.

This made Lin Lixia very curious.

"Li Hu, we have known each other for so long, and you haven't said yet, why are you so afraid of General Yun?"

Hearing Lin Lixia mention Yun Wuhen, Li Hu remembered the unbearable past of 'climbing into bed'.

Thinking that Yun Wuhen and Lin Lixia had a good relationship, they would know this sooner or later.

It's better to say it yourself first.

She looked at her husband who was leaving and told Lin Lixia and Qian Duojin while drinking.

"When the current emperor was still Prince Rui, he passed by Zizhu City. My father wanted me to become rich..."

When Li Hu talked about this, he stopped deliberately and poured another glass of fruit wine to strengthen his courage.

"..." Lin Lixia really didn't expect that eating melon would actually end up eating Ji Shen.

She was very curious about the follow-up and looked at Qian Duojin calmly.

She noticed that her sister-in-law's eyes were even wider than hers, and she obviously also wanted to know the follow-up.

Lin Lixia picked up a glass of fruit wine, sipped it carefully, and waited for Li Hu to continue.

Li Hu drank the fruit wine in one gulp and continued:

"I put on my best clothes, but before I could get close to Prince Rui, I was pushed to the ground by a tiger with its bloody mouth."

Lin Lixia was caught off guard by this turn of events, and the fruit wine suddenly choked her throat.

Coughing non-stop.

Qian Duojin couldn't hold back his laughter and asked Lin Lixia while patting her on the back.

"and after?"

Li Hu recalled the past and couldn't help but shudder.

"Prince Rui was furious and wanted to kill me immediately."

"Why?" Lin Lixia was puzzled, "Did you meet him?"

"No!" Li Hu shook his head, still frightened when he thought about it now.

"I didn't even get close to the bed. It was said that it was because my name was taboo."

"What taboo?" Lin Lixia and Qian Duojin said in unison, as if seeking confirmation.

Li Hu didn't think much, he just wanted to vent the grievances and anguish he was holding in his heart.

"The sunset was very beautiful when I was born. My father named me Xia, and together they are called Li Xia."

Hearing the word 'Li Xia', Lin Lixia's heart trembled. It was indeed related to her.

Her eyes were filled with shock.

"Prince Rui changed your name?"

"No." Li Hu shook his head, "It's a young man with a nice smile next to Prince Rui."

"The young man looked at the tiger holding me down and said that my name would be Li Hu from now on."

"..." Lin Lixia was stunned.

Don’t know whether to marvel at Ji Shen’s domineering attitude?

Or are you surprised that Xu Tianxing changed the girl's name casually?
