[Red House] But for the sake of the king

Jun Qi was chatting with Lin Ruhai when he heard someone outside saying, "Report to the emperor, the dishes are here."

When Jun Qi heard that it wasn't Dai Quan's voice, he was a little puzzled, "Where's Dai Quan?"

"Eunuch Dai has an abdominal discomfort, it's convenient to go first."

"This old boy, he has a lot of things to do." Jun Qi muttered, but his hand was pulled, and his heart moved, "Just put the things outside, you go down first."

"Yes." The guard put the tray outside, but did not leave directly.Someone must test the poison before the emperor eats this dish, there is no way to tamper with it.But at this point, a huge opportunity is in front of him, how can he let it go.This road was tightly guarded, and those who could get close to driving were the emperor's confidantes. He waited for more than half a month but failed to find the opportunity.If you don't make a move today, I'm afraid you won't have another chance before you return to Beijing.

As Jun Qi walked outside, he said loudly, "Ru Hai, try this."

Lin Ruhai replied in a decent manner, "That's right, I'm just a little old." He got off the couch as he spoke.It would be embarrassing if the guards outside came in later and saw the emperor fighting with the assassin while he was sitting upright.

The door curtain swayed, and a figure flashed in quickly.Jun Qi slammed his hands down and removed the knife from his hand.The guard quickly came to his senses, clenched his fist and came straight to Jun Qi's face.Jun Qi blocked the next move and fought the man inextricably.

Lin Ruhai saw the two figures entangled in a ball, so he walked around to the door and shouted loudly, "Come on, escort!"

The guard fought Jun Qi for more than a dozen moves, knowing that he was no match for him.Now that I heard Lin Ruhai calling for someone again, I was afraid that he would just be caught without a fight.Thinking of the master's order, it would be best to get rid of Lin Hai together, because he changed his offensive and went to Lin Hai.In a panic, Jun Qi quickly grabbed the man's shoulders and pulled him back.The guard turned back, took out a short blade from the inside of his boot, and stabbed straight at him.

The guards outside heard the movement and rushed in with a knife, only to see a man dressed as a guard stabbing the emperor with a dagger.When he wanted to stop him, he was beyond his reach, and could only watch helplessly as the dagger got closer and closer to the emperor.

Jun Qi was distracted to look at Ruhai, and now seeing the dagger in front of him, he forgot to avoid it, and only raised his arm to block it.The guard was thinking that he was going to succeed, but he caught a glimpse of something coming towards him out of the corner of his eye. He thought it was some kind of hidden weapon, and the aim in his hand was a little off, which almost scratched the thick leather jacket on Jun Qi's body.The other guards took the opportunity to coax him up, quickly restrained him, and pressed the man to kneel on the ground.

Jun Qi looked at the cut, luckily it was winter and he was wearing thick clothes, so he didn't get scratched.His good mood was disturbed by this assassin, Jun Qi angrily asked someone to take him down, lock him up first, and not allow him to eat or drink.And I had to keep my mouth shut, even if I wanted to say it, I wouldn't let him say it, let him vent his anger first.Ru Hai risked his life to deliver the letter, the assassin finally showed up and picked such a good time, it really deserves to be damned.

The guards didn't dare to say anything, and they dispersed after taking the man down, but the guards outside had added a layer.Dai Quan was still having diarrhea, he didn't know what a big event had happened, and he didn't know that what awaited him was a more painful punishment than this moment.

Lin Ruhai cleared his throat, "I'll go outside to get some air." As he said that, he was about to go outside.

Jun Qi evoked an inexplicable smile, the jade pendant in his hand still had the warmth of his body, "Ru Hai, wait a minute, you have done a great job in saving him, and you haven't asked for a reward yet. I can't bring you anything else right now. How about I give you this jade pendant?"

It was an ordinary semicircular jade pendant with auspicious cloud patterns, but Jun Qi knew that it was originally a pair, and together they made a circle, and it was what Anqing gave him before Ruhai Chunwei.Since he ascended the throne, he has seen Ru Hai countless times, but he has never seen this jade pendant on him, so he was very disappointed.But today, this jade pendant appeared for no reason, and I knew it must be carried by someone, but I didn't dare to show it in front of others.

Lin Ruhai's hand was in the air, the jade pendant carried too much, even he couldn't explain it clearly, so he simply didn't think about it.Regardless of Jun Qi's yelling behind him, he still walked out.The cold north wind blows on the face, the soldiers cheer loudly in the ears, and the simple barracks is also full of New Year's celebrations.New Year's Eve, reunion dinner, at this moment in previous years, he should be with his mother, and the family is happy.But now, he lived with Jun Qi in this wilderness.Now that we have reached this point, we should think carefully about the next road.If a person in his thirties does not remarry, no one else will tell, and his mother should have an explanation.

On the next journey, there seemed to be a layer of film between Jun Qi and Lin Ruhai. Although their speech and demeanor were still as close as before, both of them knew something was different.

Yu Jia led the vanguard to return to Beijing triumphantly on the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, just in time for the Shangyuan Festival.

Before entering the city, Jun Qi embraced Ru Hai in his arms and kissed her softly.From the forehead to the tip of the eyebrows, along the bridge of the nose, and then to the cheeks, it is delicate and lingering. Finally, it gently bites the corner of the mouth, swallowing and sucking little by little.

Once they entered the city gate, they were not just Jun Qi and Ru Hai, but the emperor and Shang Shu, and they could no longer act casually like this.

Lin Ruhai's thin lips parted slightly, and he bit Jun Qi back, neither light nor heavy, but it made him feel itchy.

The tip of the tongue is entangled, and the unspeakable words are exchanged with the saliva. The two try their best to grab each other's breath until they are about to suffocate in the next moment.

The frame gradually came to a stop, Jun Qi smiled and murmured, "Look what's wrong with me, it's not like I won't see you again." He carefully licked the saliva off Ru Hai's lips, adding a little more to his bright red lips. The layer of luster made him almost unable to control it, he really wanted to hide Ru Hai forever.

Lin Ruhai understood that if he didn't do it on purpose, he wouldn't have reached this point just now.It's just that there is only so much he can give now.

"Your Majesty, here we are."

Jun Qi wanted to rush back to the palace to deal with the political affairs of the past few months, but Lin Ruhai's eye disease was still unhealed, Jun Qi arranged for someone else to send him back to the Lin Mansion first, and someone had already invited the imperial physician to wait in the Lin Mansion.

When Lin Ruhai got out of the carriage, something was stuffed in his hand, and he didn't dare to spread his palm until he was in the carriage. It was indeed the jade pendant thrown out that day.Taking the jade pendant back into his arms again, Lin Ruhai closed his eyes and bit his lower lip.After a while, Lin Ruhai regained his usual look, his mother and children were still waiting for him at home, and he was still the handsome and independent Lin Hailin Shangshu.

The Lin family also got the news a long time ago. They originally wanted to send someone to the gate of the city to welcome the master back to the mansion, but they didn't want to get up early and someone would report that someone would send Mr. Lin back in a while, so there was no need to send someone to pick him up.

Tang shi got up early in the morning, and after picking out several sets of clothes, she felt uncomfortable. In the end, Xia Lu was sweet-mouthed, and after a few words, Tang shi happily changed her clothes.It was because she wanted her son to return safely, so she dressed more festively, but Jia Min passed away not long ago, and the entire family was dressed in plain clothes, so she was a little unhappy.

At that moment, Daiyu was also dressed, but she was dressed in plain clothes, with a bewildered face, "Grandmother, Yu'er pays respects to grandma."

Tang hugged her distressedly, but luckily the child was still young and didn't quite understand what it means to go, so Jia Min's death didn't make Daiyu too sad. "Poor Yu'er, your father will be back soon, why don't you go and wait with your grandmother?"

Daiyu's eyes lit up when she heard about Daddy, "Daddy, grandma, go find Daddy." At that time she thought Daddy would go out as usual and would come back the next day.Who knows that she hasn't seen her father for three days in a row, no matter how much she cries, her father just doesn't show up.Grandma said that Daddy would come back when her birthday was celebrated, so she asked Nanny Ding when her birthday would arrive every day.But this morning, Nanny Ding said that it would take a while, why did Daddy come back.Well, no matter what, as long as dad comes back.

The door of the Lin family, which had not been opened for a long time, opened again, waiting for Zhengren's return.Tang shi leaned on a cane and sat upright in the main hall.Even Xiao Daiyu obediently sat on the grand teacher's chair beside her, with the nanny holding Brother Heng behind her.

Lin Sheng looked at the gate of the mansion for a long time, and finally saw two sedan chairs coming here. He thought it was the master, but after thinking about it, he felt something was wrong. He had never heard that the army entered the city. How could it be so fast?Besides, it shouldn't be a sedan chair.

The sedan chair settled down, and two adults dressed as imperial doctors came out.Lin Sheng hurried forward and asked the reason. It turned out that it was the emperor's order to let them come to the Lin residence and wait for Master Lin to come back for treatment.Lin Sheng was startled, first welcomed the two adults in, and then let the old lady hide it.Usually, the imperial physicians are invited at home, and the imperial physicians are the ones who really take the pulse of the emperor and the nobles in the palace. Lin Sheng rarely has to accompany him in person.

After another half an hour, De'an, who followed Lin Ruhai, came to report quickly, saying that the master would arrive soon.Lin Sheng was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked if the master was injured.Knowing that there was nothing serious, Lin Sheng asked the two of them to go down to rest first, and then sent a boy to tell the old lady that the master would be there immediately.

About a moment later, a carriage escorted by twenty or so guards came slowly. Lin Sheng walked down the steps quickly, presumably it must be the master.Sure enough, the carriage stopped at the main entrance of Lin Mansion.Desheng lifted the door curtain, jumped down, and then took down the bench and put it back on.Lin Ruhai supported Desheng's hand, groped carefully to get out of the car, and finally did not step on the ground.

Lin Sheng's eyes turned hot when he saw it, and he really thought something serious happened to the master's eyes, so he hurriedly stepped forward to support the other side, "Master, you are back. The old lady is waiting in the main hall with the young lady and the young master. The emperor called The two imperial doctors were waiting in the side hall. The slave made his own decision and didn't tell the old lady about it."

Lin Ruhai nodded, "That's exactly what it should be, and there's no need to worry my mother. Go and entertain those two adults, and I'll greet my mother first before going over."

"Yes." Lin Sheng helped him to the gate before letting go, still a little worried.

Lin Ruhai smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's not that serious, but you can't see your facial features clearly, but you can still see the road clearly."

When Tang got the news, they all stretched their necks and waited.Daiyu couldn't sit still anymore, so she simply stood beside Tang, touching the pouch next to her body, which contained a string of Buddhist beads.

The girls and women outside the door suddenly caught up and shouted inside, "The master is back, the master is back, and you have entered the gate."

Tang stood up, dragged Xiao Daiyu out, and when she reached the door, she saw her son being helped in by a servant.

Lin Ruhai pushed the servant away and knelt down on the ground, "My son pays his respects to his mother."

With red eyes, Tang choked up and said, "Get up, it's cold on the ground. It's good to be back, it's good to be back. Yu'er, come and see your father."

Lin Ruhai just stood firm, and looked aside after listening to his mother's words. The little man was completely naked, and his facial features could no longer be seen clearly.Tears dazzled my eyes, it has only been a few months, and I feel like a world away.Yin squatted down and said to Daiyu, "Yu'er, Daddy is back, do you miss Daddy?"

Daiyu had been thinking about her father for so long, but now when she saw her again, she didn't respond in a daze.She is still too young, she only remembers that there is a daddy she sees every day and always teases her, but she doesn't remember what she looks like.Therefore, facing Ruhai, it was as if facing a stranger, and dared not go forward.

Lin Ruhai didn't see Daiyu's strange eyes, but Tang could see it clearly, and felt sore, "Yu'er, didn't you look forward to Daddy every day, why didn't you talk when you saw Daddy now?"

Daiyu looked up at Tang, then turned her head to look at this "stranger", and called out timidly, "Daddy."

Lin Ruhai burst into tears, stepped forward to pick up the child, and staggered two steps.After he left in her previous life, Daiyu must have been like this, dressed in filial piety, and lived alone in the future.It's because he thought too little, leaving Yu'er alone, and he will never repeat the same mistakes in this life.

Daiyu was hugged in his arms, and seemed to have some impressions that her father would hold her like this every day, and sometimes she would fly high, just like this person.Thinking about it, Daiyu was full of grievances, "Daddy, Daddy is back, why did you come back, Daddy? Mother is gone, Daddy, Daddy is gone too. Wow, woo woo woo." Come back soon, but she has been waiting for a long time.The mother played hide and seek with her, hiding every day without seeing anyone, or disappearing.

When Daiyu cried, Lin Heng, who was being held by the nanny, also cried. There were no tears, but howling at the top of his throat, which really hurt people's hearts.

Tang wiped away the tears with a handkerchief, and said with a smile, "Oh, what did you say. Yu'er, it's a happy event for your father to come back today, so don't cry. See, younger brother, don't be scared by you."

When Daiyu heard it, she really gradually suppressed her crying, and concentrated on watching her younger brother howl.Lin Heng howled, and couldn't stop for a while.Lin Ruhai patted Lin Heng twice more, but she couldn't stop, so she asked the nanny to carry the baby down to coax her, and even brought Daiyu down with her.

Tang shi straightened her clothes and sat down again, "Alright, let's talk if you have anything to say."

Lin Ruhai was stunned, and then laughed, "As expected of a mother, I can't hide anything from you, but my son really has something to tell you. But don't worry, it's actually not a big deal."

Tang waved his hand, "Don't talk about those useless things, you should explain clearly first, what's the matter with your eyes?" Seeing Lin Ruhai's shocked face, but also a little proud, "Mother, you think you're pretending to be pretty?" Like something?"

Lin Ruhai briefly explained the reason, but naturally changed the real reason.Tang shi inevitably wiped away his tears again, urging him to ask the imperial doctor to take another look.Lin Ruhai thought about what he said for half a month, and turned it around in his stomach a few times, but finally he couldn't say it.
