Ten thousand people think gloom is reborn
Chapter 72 Cold Dew
The prince didn't know when he walked behind me. He hugged my shoulders again, bowed his head and said softly, "Are you scared? If you are scared, let's leave first."
Lin Chongtan was vomiting blood before my eyes. He vomited a lot of blood. Is he going to die?
I don't want him to die so easily, he hasn't really been ruined and cast aside by thousands of people.
I couldn't listen to what the prince said to me until he covered my eyes with his hand.
"Okay, okay, don't look, we're going back today, and we'll come back next time." The prince said, putting his arms around my shoulders and leading me out.
I walked a few steps along his footsteps, but because my eyes were blindfolded and I couldn't see the way, I couldn't help reaching out and grabbing his hand.At the same time, I seemed to hear the sound of chains rattling.
"I'm not afraid. If he's not dead, brother Prince, please ask a doctor to take a look at him. I don't want him to die so easily." I turned my head to look at the prince.
When the prince heard what I said, he asked back, "What if he died?"
"Then let his family come to collect the body." After I finished speaking, I walked forward.
I went back to the carriage first, and the prince stepped up later. The two of us in the carriage agreed not to mention the prison.The carriage moved forward slowly, and when I reached the downtown street, I heard the voice of a child outside the window.
"Daddy, I want to buy this!"
Then came a man's smiling voice, "Okay, it's the Chinese New Year, I'll follow you."
Is Chinese New Year coming?
Time flies so fast.
I gently opened the car window a crack, because near the end of the year, every family came out to buy new year's goods, and the streets were very lively.
This is my third year in Beijing.
Every New Year's Eve is spent with my third uncle's family. Although the dinner table is lively, the excitement revolves around Lin Chongtan. After a New Year's Eve dinner, I can't say a few words. would sneak into my yard.
I also didn't know that people like Lin Chongtan can climb over the wall.
During the Spring Festival in the 22nd year of the calendar, after observing the new year, I was bored in the room counting gold bags.In fact, I have already counted them, and there is nothing to count, because there are only two in total.The third uncle and the third aunt each wrapped one for me.
But I want the gold packets of my father and my mother.
After counting the gold bags, I still didn't feel sleepy. Liangji was already so sleepy that he was snoring outside. He was exhausted from cleaning the yard these days.
I simply took out my book, and was about to memorize an article before going to bed. As I was memorizing it, I felt something hit my window.
I stopped immediately.
Are there ghosts in Chinese New Year?
When I was suspicious, the window was smashed again.At that moment, I suddenly thought of something, so I mustered up the courage to open the window.
Just by the candlelight on the table, I could see clearly the person standing outside my window.
It was Lin Chongtan.
He was still wearing the clothes he wore when he was watching the year. He was all red, even his hairband was red.Our Lin family has a tradition during the Chinese New Year. As long as the men are not up to the crown and the women are not up to the hairpin, they must wear a red suit during the New Year.
Seeing me open the window, Lin Chongtan dropped the small stone in his hand, and stepped on the steps under the window to climb in.I was frightened by his behavior, and just about to ask him why he didn't leave the front door and had to climb the window, but he jumped in from the window with one hand propped up, and quickly covered my lips with the other hand.
In the cold winter night, Lin Chongtan's fingers felt cold.
"Hush, don't let Liangji overhear." He drank wine today, and when he spoke, those words seemed to be soaked in wine.
After he finished speaking, he turned to close the window again.
I stared at him, "What are you doing here so late? You're still throwing rocks at my window, what if you make a hole and come out?"
Lin Chongtan looked back at me, he seemed to be in a good mood, he was stunned by me, with a smile in his eyes, "I'm afraid I'll stand by your window suddenly and scare you."
"Won't throwing stones scare me? I thought there was a ghost coming. By the way, why didn't you say why you came back so late?" I still refused to let him go.
Lin Chongtan smiled slightly and apologized to me, "It's my fault. Next time, I must tell Xiaodi first before smashing the window."
Slick tongue.
Really drink too much.
I didn't want to talk to the drunk, so I grabbed the book on the table and wanted to read it in another place, but before I took two steps, he grabbed my arm.
"Xiaodi, this is for you." Lin Chongtan took out something from his bosom.
I took a closer look and found that it was a gold bag.I was stunned, "I already have my third uncle and third aunt."
"They gave it to me, and I gave it to you. The gold bag is not too much." Lin Chongtan said.
I watched him for a while, and still took the gold bag, but when I took it, I said to him: "I didn't prepare a gold bag for you."
When Lin Chongtan heard this, he stretched out his hand and pulled me to him.Seeing him approaching suddenly, I instinctively closed my eyes, but the expected kiss did not fall, instead I heard his laughter.
He is making fun of me.
I opened my eyes so angry that I wanted to hit him, but at this moment my lips were blocked by Leng Buding.I still have my eyes open, so I can clearly see Lin Chongtan's eyes.He didn't close his eyes either, the two of us just watched, and I could see his eyelashes clearly.
Lin Zhongtan's eyelashes are extremely long and black, perhaps because of the candlelight, but they don't look pure black, but seem to have a little blue at the end, like the butterfly wings I recently met in a book.The moon comes out of the mountain, bright eyes shine.
His lips were warm and cool, and there was a faint smell of alcohol. I came back to my senses and raised my hand to push him away, but he clamped my wrist.
He... He even wanted to poke his tongue in.
I felt annoyed, so I just took a bite.Lin Chongtan took a breath and let go of me suddenly.I watched him purse his lips slightly, most of the anger just now disappeared.
"You deserve it, you smell of alcohol, you stink to death." I said to him.
I thought he would be ashamed to leave when I said that, but tonight he was so thick-skinned that not only did he not leave, he even hugged me into his arms again.Not only in his arms, he hugged me onto the table and put his hands on the table, trapping me between him and the table.
"Well, I stink, but Xiaodi..." Lin Chongtan paused, "It's so sweet."
His Meng Lang's words surprised me, I looked at him in surprise, but my lips were kissed again.
There was the sound of firecrackers outside the window, and Liangji's snoring sounded one after another outside the door.Lin Chongtan and I kissed in the noise.This time Lin Chongtan kissed more lightly, as if he was afraid that I would bite him again.
I couldn't help trembling a little, unconsciously, I reached out and grabbed his clothes, and I didn't know when the headband in my hair was torn off.
When Lin Chongtan let go of me, I panted even more lightly, and I didn't know when my face became hot.I raised my hand to touch my face, and seeing Lin Chongtan looking at me with a smile, I thought he must be laughing at me.
Why does it make me blush every time I kiss, why doesn't he blush at all?
With that in mind, I reached out and grabbed him.
This time I will take the initiative.
I leaned closer to his face, first touched him lightly with my lips, and then rubbed against him slightly.
I don't know how long we kissed, I felt my mouth was dry, and when I wanted to drink water, I finally saw Lin Chongtan had another reaction.
His ears are red.
As if I found something extremely rare, I reached out and grabbed his ear.Lin Chongtan wanted to hide, I immediately called to him, "Don't move."
Lin Chongtan had no choice but to stop again, and I grabbed his ear.I touched his ear and found that it was getting redder and redder, so I couldn't help but froze.
"Your ears are so red." I don't know why I whispered to him, maybe I was afraid that Liangji outside would hear it.
Lin Chongtan was really drunk, and acted like a baby at me, "Don't touch me anymore."
"What if I have to touch it?" I deliberately opposed him.
Lin Chongtan thought for a while, but turned his face, and moved his head towards me, "Then you can touch it."
He asked me to touch his ear, but I didn't want to touch it anymore. I let him go and grabbed the gold bag he gave me.The gold bag was heavy, and it seemed that there was a lot of silver in it.
Later, the two of us talked.Halfway through the talk, Liangji's snoring stopped suddenly, and I was so scared that I stopped immediately.
After a while, Liangji's voice sounded.
"Master Chun, you haven't slept yet?"
He must have seen the lights in my room.
I panicked and blew out the candle, "I fell asleep."
When the room was dark, I could only see Lin Chongtan's figure clearly.I just wanted him to go quickly, but he pulled me to the bed.I realized from his movements that he was going to sleep with me, which I didn't want to.
In case Liangji finds out tomorrow, Liangji will be fine, he can fool him with a few words.But this is the mansion of the third uncle, Liangji is not the only one serving in my yard, there are other people as well.
But Lin Chongtan refused to leave, I was so entangled by him, and I was really sleepy, so I had to sleep with him.
The next day, the sky was bright, and I was woken up by the movement next to me.
I opened my eyes sleepily, and saw Lin Chongtan putting on shoes behind my back.I glanced at the sky outside, and then at him. I slept too late last night, and I still couldn't fully wake up from my sleepiness.
Lin Chongtan stood up, found that I was awake, bent down and kissed my cheek, and tucked me in the quilt again.
"It's still early, go to sleep."
After he said this, I closed my eyes in a state of exhaustion and didn't reply to him.By the time I get enough sleep, Lin Chongtan will be gone long ago.
When Liangji was waiting for me to wake up, he suddenly asked, "Master Chun, did you drink secretly last night?"
My heart beat faster for a moment, "Why do you ask that?"
"Your clothes smell of alcohol," Liangji said.
I lifted my sleeves and smelled myself, and found that Liangji hadn't lied to me, it did smell like alcohol.I frowned in disgust, and told Liangji that I wanted to take a bath.Liangji was hired by me and forgot what he asked me just now.
However, Liangji later found the gold bag next to my pillow. He thought it was from my third uncle, so he was going to take out the silver money inside and put it into the money box, but after opening it, he stayed where he was.
"Master Chun." Liangji said in amazement, "Why is the third master so generous this year, giving him all gold beads?"
The third uncle is clean and honest, and there is not much money in the gold bag, but it is just for the occasion.
I saw the gold bag in Liangji's hand, and realized who the owner of the gold bag was.I thought about it, and told the truth, "This is a gift from Tan... my second brother."
"So it's the second young master, no wonder. Master Chun, the second young master is so kind to you."
I didn't answer Liangji's words. Afterwards, I sued Lin Chongtan, accusing him of holding me to sleep smelling of alcohol, and asking him how he got back that morning.
Lin Chongtan was painting, and when I asked him, he said calmly, "I went back over the wall."
Just as I was about to continue asking him how he got back over the wall, I realized his ears were red again.
"younger brother?"
A call pulled me back from my memories, I turned my head, and the prince was looking at me.He also noticed the voices outside, "Does brother also want to buy something? Then let's get out of the car and go for a walk?"
"No, let's go back to the palace." After I finished speaking, I felt that my tone was too cold, so I smiled at him again.The prince saw my smile and didn't speak.
This trip made me exhausted and I didn't know how to deal with the prince, so I stopped talking.And when I returned to Huayang Palace, I saw Concubine Zhuang Gui who had come back earlier.Concubine Zhuang obviously knew about my sneaking out of the palace. She was preparing to wait for me to pass with a sullen face, but when she saw me, she came over on her own initiative.
"Congxi, what's wrong?"
I shook my head and forced a smile, "It's nothing, Concubine Mu, I'm leaving the palace today, don't be angry."
Concubine Zhuang stared at me carefully, she was always considerate, she didn't continue to ask me, but took my hand lightly, "My concubine is not angry, go wash your hands, and drink a bowl of white jade mutton soup to warm your body."
For the next few days, I didn't go out of Huayang Palace, usually I either stayed with Concubine Zhuang Gui, or sat in the room and read a book by myself.
On this day, all the concubines in the harem will go to the empress to have a vegetarian meal together. Concubine Zhuang gave me the nourishing soup she stewed for the emperor, and asked me to send it to the imperial court.
When I arrived in front of the imperial court, the emperor was correcting the memorial.I thought I would be able to leave with the soup, but the emperor suddenly thought of testing me.He first asked me how I had learned these days, and then gave me exam questions.
I can't answer all the questions he asked, and some of them can only be answered in sevens and eighties. As for the questions that I have never heard of, I will honestly say that I don't know.
The emperor was not angry, but reached out and rubbed my head.He hit hard, I was rubbed and staggered, and I just stabilized my body.The eunuch who was serving in front of the imperial court came in quietly, "Your Majesty, Mr. Lin, Shang Shu of the Ministry of Industry, handed over the booklet and asked to see Your Majesty."
It's the third uncle.
"It's about Lin Chongtan again?" The emperor's face that was still smiling before slowly turned cold.
The eunuch replied: "Master Lin said that Jiangyin Hou Fengjing has come to Beijing."
"Marquis of Jiangyin? Lin Chongtan's father?" the emperor asked.
"Yes."
"He travels fast, I'm afraid he will have to travel day and night to reach the capital. I don't see him, he's dismissed." The emperor said disgustedly.
The eunuch exited the palace in response, I looked away, picked up the ink stick to grind the ink for the emperor, "Father, my son will grind the ink for you."
The emperor hummed.
In a blink of an eye, it was New Year's Eve.
The New Year's Eve banquet in the palace was very lively, but although it was lively, some people at the banquet were not happy.
The Twelve Princess's face was gloomy. She probably still couldn't get over the news of Tanhualang Pu Ruonan's death.In the past, she was the happiest, but tonight it was dull, and when others tried to tease her, she just couldn't laugh.
"Congxi." The fourth prince on the side called me to stop.
I looked at him in search of sound, and a gold bag was stuffed in my hand.From the people to the court, it is fashionable to give gold packets on New Year's Eve.Of course, the royal gold bag is more extravagant, not to mention the blessing on the surface is embroidered with gold thread, the things inside are also much more expensive, all are gold beads.
I have received a lot of gold bags today, the emperor and the crown prince sent people to send gold bags early in the morning, followed by the concubines.I also wrapped a few gold bags to give to the younger sisters in the back.
"Thank you fourth brother." I smiled at the fourth prince.
The fourth prince also smiled at me, "You don't have to be polite to me, brother four."
What else did he want to say, my gaze was suddenly attracted by another direction.Over there, a little eunuch came out.The little eunuch leaned close to the prince and whispered a few words, the prince raised his eyes to look around, then got up and saluted the emperor, "Father, I have something to leave."
"What's the matter? I'm going to light the lamp later." The emperor asked.
Lighting lanterns is a custom in the palace. The prince lights the palace lantern at the noon gate at the end of Haishi. This palace lantern has the name of praying for blessings, and the palace people guard it all night to ensure that it can be lit until dawn.
The crown prince was silent for a while before he said: "Mr. Chen committed suicide again, and my son needs to take care of one or two."
As soon as these words came out, the whole room was silent.
After Lin Chongtan insulted the future prince's side concubine and killed Tanhualang, Ms. Chen did not leave the palace. On the contrary, she moved into the East Palace ahead of schedule.The prince announced to the public that he would still marry Miss Chen as his side concubine.
If it is left as before, it must be unreasonable.After all, the prince and Ms. Chen are not yet married, but after Ms. Chen's incident broke out, she lived in the East Palace, and everyone praised the prince for his benevolence.I once ran into the prince sending Miss Chen's father, Daxingtai Shangshuling, away from the palace.
At that time, Daxingtai Shangshu made his eyes red and his temples white. Compared with the last time I saw him, he looked at least ten years older.He repeatedly told the prince that he didn't need to see him off, and before leaving, he knelt on the ground and gave the prince a big gift.
Now, Miss Chen lives in the East Palace, but I haven't seen her again.It is said that she still couldn't get out of that incident and stayed behind closed doors.I couldn't attend the New Year's Eve banquet today.
The prince's words made everyone silent, the emperor sighed and waved his hands, "Go, take care and come back early."
But after the prince left, he didn't return for a long time, and it seemed that the end of Haishi was coming.The emperor frowned again and again, and called for someone to go to the East Palace to urge the prince, but in the middle of speaking, he changed his words, "Fourth brother, come and light the lamp this year."
The fourth prince was caught off guard by being named, and he was obviously stunned.In previous years, the crown prince was responsible for lighting the lamps. When the second prince was around, he couldn't do it.
"My son... my son..." the fourth prince stammered, "my son has never lit a lamp, so let's wait for the prince to come back."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a voice from outside the palace to announce, "His Royal Highness has arrived."
When the emperor saw the prince came back, he didn't mention the matter of asking the fourth prince to light the lamp.The fourth prince also sat down as if nothing had happened.
After the palace banquet was over, Concubine Zhuang Guifei seldom had to accompany her, and the emperor stayed with the empress tonight.Concubine Zhuang Gui said she was bored and asked me to accompany her back to Huayang Palace.
The two palace men carried the lanterns, and I was with Concubine Zhuang Gui. The cold on New Year's Eve was not as severe as it was a few days ago.The plum fragrance is sent by the wind from afar, and the night is like water, quiet and elegant.
Concubine Zhuang Gui asked me: "Did you eat enough just now? If you haven't eaten enough, the concubine mother made some dumplings earlier, and I will make them for you when I go back?"
I thought for a while, "I'm a little hungry."
Concubine Zhuang looked at me with a smile, "Mother and concubine are too, we will eat together later."
Concubine Zhuang refused to ask others to help, and went to the small kitchen to cook two bowls of dumplings.Yushanfang also made dumplings tonight, but for some reason, they were not as delicious as Concubine Zhuang's.
Originally at the Lin family in Gusu, they also ate dumplings during Chinese New Year, but they were not made by my mother.At that time, everyone sat around a table, and Lin Chongtan was always the one who attracted the most attention.
Now Lin Chongtan is in the bone-chilling prison.
Although I didn't go to the sky prison again, I also know that Lin Chongtan is not dead.If he dies, the crown prince will tell me even if the news of his death is not announced.
Years later, I also got busy.Since the emperor tested my homework last time, he has asked me to answer questions in front of him every day, sometimes to memorize, and sometimes to test me on court affairs.
I have been in the imperial court for a long time, and I also know something about the previous dynasty.
The third uncle handed over more than [-] papers in a row, and was finally allowed to have a face-to-face consecration, along with his father.
I haven't seen my father for more than half a year, and his figure seems to be much shorter all of a sudden.I froze for a moment, then realized it was because he kept bending over.
I shouldn't be here, but just after I answered half of the questions, my father and third uncle came, and the emperor didn't let me go.
The father bent over and came in from the outside cautiously, not daring to squint.
"The guilty minister Lin Kunjie kowtowed to His Majesty, long live Your Majesty." The father put his head on the floor tiles, and the third uncle also knelt beside him.
"Sinner?" The emperor just said these two words, and the father in the hall shook violently, and then he knelt even closer to the ground.
"What a sinner, tell me where is your crime?"
Father's body trembled again, the excessive silence in the palace made him sweat profusely in the twelfth lunar month of winter, he didn't dare to wipe his sweat, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, the criminal knows that his crime cannot be pardoned, but there is one thing that must be reported to His Majesty. "
"Say."
"The sinner, Lin Chongtan, is actually not the offender's own son. Back then, the offender's wife went to the temple to pray for blessings, but was intercepted and murdered by bandits. When she fled, she fled to a peasant woman's house. The peasant woman and the underworld gave birth on the same day. I thought the peasant woman had a kind heart. As a result, the peasant woman had an evil idea and wanted to exchange the courtiers with their sons. It took thirteen years to exchange.
This son is Lin Chongtan.For the past 13 years, the criminal minister has taken good care of Lin Chongtan, the son of the peasant woman. He pitied my son for being beaten day and night by his adoptive father, a gambling ghost, at the peasant woman's house.Before the death of the peasant woman, she came to the minister's mansion to tell the truth. The minister thought that since the disaster was caused by his mother, and that the peasant woman died, his father was addicted to gambling and passed away a few years ago, so he did not implicate this son, and kept Lin Chong Tan was raised in the mansion.
Therefore, after the criminal minister took the minister back from the farmer's wife, he treated Lin Chongtan like a parent and child, but who knew that he would do such unfaithful, filial, benevolent and unrighteous things when he grew up.On the other hand, my son, who was raised by a peasant woman, was born weak, and passed away within a few years of being happy at the knees of his ministers.
Your Majesty, the guilty minister brought along the family tree, and the minister has expelled Lin Chongtan from the family tree, and he will never be a member of the Lin clan!"
Father, no, I should call him Lin Kunjie now.Every time he said a word, various images of him praising Lin Chongtan flashed in my mind, and also flashed how Mrs. Lin hugged Lin Chongtan to call his heart and soul.
Finally, what appeared in front of me was Lin Chongtan in the dungeon.
It turns out that everything a person owns is so easy to lose. Has he thought about his present?
Lin Chongtan was vomiting blood before my eyes. He vomited a lot of blood. Is he going to die?
I don't want him to die so easily, he hasn't really been ruined and cast aside by thousands of people.
I couldn't listen to what the prince said to me until he covered my eyes with his hand.
"Okay, okay, don't look, we're going back today, and we'll come back next time." The prince said, putting his arms around my shoulders and leading me out.
I walked a few steps along his footsteps, but because my eyes were blindfolded and I couldn't see the way, I couldn't help reaching out and grabbing his hand.At the same time, I seemed to hear the sound of chains rattling.
"I'm not afraid. If he's not dead, brother Prince, please ask a doctor to take a look at him. I don't want him to die so easily." I turned my head to look at the prince.
When the prince heard what I said, he asked back, "What if he died?"
"Then let his family come to collect the body." After I finished speaking, I walked forward.
I went back to the carriage first, and the prince stepped up later. The two of us in the carriage agreed not to mention the prison.The carriage moved forward slowly, and when I reached the downtown street, I heard the voice of a child outside the window.
"Daddy, I want to buy this!"
Then came a man's smiling voice, "Okay, it's the Chinese New Year, I'll follow you."
Is Chinese New Year coming?
Time flies so fast.
I gently opened the car window a crack, because near the end of the year, every family came out to buy new year's goods, and the streets were very lively.
This is my third year in Beijing.
Every New Year's Eve is spent with my third uncle's family. Although the dinner table is lively, the excitement revolves around Lin Chongtan. After a New Year's Eve dinner, I can't say a few words. would sneak into my yard.
I also didn't know that people like Lin Chongtan can climb over the wall.

But I want the gold packets of my father and my mother.
After counting the gold bags, I still didn't feel sleepy. Liangji was already so sleepy that he was snoring outside. He was exhausted from cleaning the yard these days.
I simply took out my book, and was about to memorize an article before going to bed. As I was memorizing it, I felt something hit my window.
I stopped immediately.

"Won't throwing stones scare me? I thought there was a ghost coming. By the way, why didn't you say why you came back so late?" I still refused to let him go.
Lin Chongtan smiled slightly and apologized to me, "It's my fault. Next time, I must tell Xiaodi first before smashing the window."
Slick tongue.
Really drink too much.
I didn't want to talk to the drunk, so I grabbed the book on the table and wanted to read it in another place, but before I took two steps, he grabbed my arm.

"Your ears are so red." I don't know why I whispered to him, maybe I was afraid that Liangji outside would hear it.
Lin Chongtan was really drunk, and acted like a baby at me, "Don't touch me anymore."
"What if I have to touch it?" I deliberately opposed him.
Lin Chongtan thought for a while, but turned his face, and moved his head towards me, "Then you can touch it."
He asked me to touch his ear, but I didn't want to touch it anymore. I let him go and grabbed the gold bag he gave me.The gold bag was heavy, and it seemed that there was a lot of silver in it.
Later, the two of us talked.Halfway through the talk, Liangji's snoring stopped suddenly, and I was so scared that I stopped immediately.
After a while, Liangji's voice sounded.
"Master Chun, you haven't slept yet?"
He must have seen the lights in my room.
I panicked and blew out the candle, "I fell asleep."
When the room was dark, I could only see Lin Chongtan's figure clearly.I just wanted him to go quickly, but he pulled me to the bed.I realized from his movements that he was going to sleep with me, which I didn't want to.
In case Liangji finds out tomorrow, Liangji will be fine, he can fool him with a few words.But this is the mansion of the third uncle, Liangji is not the only one serving in my yard, there are other people as well.
But Lin Chongtan refused to leave, I was so entangled by him, and I was really sleepy, so I had to sleep with him.
The next day, the sky was bright, and I was woken up by the movement next to me.
I opened my eyes sleepily, and saw Lin Chongtan putting on shoes behind my back.I glanced at the sky outside, and then at him. I slept too late last night, and I still couldn't fully wake up from my sleepiness.
Lin Chongtan stood up, found that I was awake, bent down and kissed my cheek, and tucked me in the quilt again.
"It's still early, go to sleep."
After he said this, I closed my eyes in a state of exhaustion and didn't reply to him.By the time I get enough sleep, Lin Chongtan will be gone long ago.
When Liangji was waiting for me to wake up, he suddenly asked, "Master Chun, did you drink secretly last night?"
My heart beat faster for a moment, "Why do you ask that?"
"Your clothes smell of alcohol," Liangji said.
I lifted my sleeves and smelled myself, and found that Liangji hadn't lied to me, it did smell like alcohol.I frowned in disgust, and told Liangji that I wanted to take a bath.Liangji was hired by me and forgot what he asked me just now.
However, Liangji later found the gold bag next to my pillow. He thought it was from my third uncle, so he was going to take out the silver money inside and put it into the money box, but after opening it, he stayed where he was.
"Master Chun." Liangji said in amazement, "Why is the third master so generous this year, giving him all gold beads?"
The third uncle is clean and honest, and there is not much money in the gold bag, but it is just for the occasion.
I saw the gold bag in Liangji's hand, and realized who the owner of the gold bag was.I thought about it, and told the truth, "This is a gift from Tan... my second brother."
"So it's the second young master, no wonder. Master Chun, the second young master is so kind to you."
I didn't answer Liangji's words. Afterwards, I sued Lin Chongtan, accusing him of holding me to sleep smelling of alcohol, and asking him how he got back that morning.
Lin Chongtan was painting, and when I asked him, he said calmly, "I went back over the wall."
Just as I was about to continue asking him how he got back over the wall, I realized his ears were red again.
"younger brother?"
A call pulled me back from my memories, I turned my head, and the prince was looking at me.He also noticed the voices outside, "Does brother also want to buy something? Then let's get out of the car and go for a walk?"
"No, let's go back to the palace." After I finished speaking, I felt that my tone was too cold, so I smiled at him again.The prince saw my smile and didn't speak.
This trip made me exhausted and I didn't know how to deal with the prince, so I stopped talking.And when I returned to Huayang Palace, I saw Concubine Zhuang Gui who had come back earlier.Concubine Zhuang obviously knew about my sneaking out of the palace. She was preparing to wait for me to pass with a sullen face, but when she saw me, she came over on her own initiative.
"Congxi, what's wrong?"
I shook my head and forced a smile, "It's nothing, Concubine Mu, I'm leaving the palace today, don't be angry."
Concubine Zhuang stared at me carefully, she was always considerate, she didn't continue to ask me, but took my hand lightly, "My concubine is not angry, go wash your hands, and drink a bowl of white jade mutton soup to warm your body."
For the next few days, I didn't go out of Huayang Palace, usually I either stayed with Concubine Zhuang Gui, or sat in the room and read a book by myself.
On this day, all the concubines in the harem will go to the empress to have a vegetarian meal together. Concubine Zhuang gave me the nourishing soup she stewed for the emperor, and asked me to send it to the imperial court.
When I arrived in front of the imperial court, the emperor was correcting the memorial.I thought I would be able to leave with the soup, but the emperor suddenly thought of testing me.He first asked me how I had learned these days, and then gave me exam questions.
I can't answer all the questions he asked, and some of them can only be answered in sevens and eighties. As for the questions that I have never heard of, I will honestly say that I don't know.
The emperor was not angry, but reached out and rubbed my head.He hit hard, I was rubbed and staggered, and I just stabilized my body.The eunuch who was serving in front of the imperial court came in quietly, "Your Majesty, Mr. Lin, Shang Shu of the Ministry of Industry, handed over the booklet and asked to see Your Majesty."
It's the third uncle.
"It's about Lin Chongtan again?" The emperor's face that was still smiling before slowly turned cold.
The eunuch replied: "Master Lin said that Jiangyin Hou Fengjing has come to Beijing."
"Marquis of Jiangyin? Lin Chongtan's father?" the emperor asked.
"Yes."
"He travels fast, I'm afraid he will have to travel day and night to reach the capital. I don't see him, he's dismissed." The emperor said disgustedly.
The eunuch exited the palace in response, I looked away, picked up the ink stick to grind the ink for the emperor, "Father, my son will grind the ink for you."
The emperor hummed.
In a blink of an eye, it was New Year's Eve.
The New Year's Eve banquet in the palace was very lively, but although it was lively, some people at the banquet were not happy.
The Twelve Princess's face was gloomy. She probably still couldn't get over the news of Tanhualang Pu Ruonan's death.In the past, she was the happiest, but tonight it was dull, and when others tried to tease her, she just couldn't laugh.
"Congxi." The fourth prince on the side called me to stop.
I looked at him in search of sound, and a gold bag was stuffed in my hand.From the people to the court, it is fashionable to give gold packets on New Year's Eve.Of course, the royal gold bag is more extravagant, not to mention the blessing on the surface is embroidered with gold thread, the things inside are also much more expensive, all are gold beads.
I have received a lot of gold bags today, the emperor and the crown prince sent people to send gold bags early in the morning, followed by the concubines.I also wrapped a few gold bags to give to the younger sisters in the back.
"Thank you fourth brother." I smiled at the fourth prince.
The fourth prince also smiled at me, "You don't have to be polite to me, brother four."
What else did he want to say, my gaze was suddenly attracted by another direction.Over there, a little eunuch came out.The little eunuch leaned close to the prince and whispered a few words, the prince raised his eyes to look around, then got up and saluted the emperor, "Father, I have something to leave."
"What's the matter? I'm going to light the lamp later." The emperor asked.
Lighting lanterns is a custom in the palace. The prince lights the palace lantern at the noon gate at the end of Haishi. This palace lantern has the name of praying for blessings, and the palace people guard it all night to ensure that it can be lit until dawn.
The crown prince was silent for a while before he said: "Mr. Chen committed suicide again, and my son needs to take care of one or two."
As soon as these words came out, the whole room was silent.
After Lin Chongtan insulted the future prince's side concubine and killed Tanhualang, Ms. Chen did not leave the palace. On the contrary, she moved into the East Palace ahead of schedule.The prince announced to the public that he would still marry Miss Chen as his side concubine.
If it is left as before, it must be unreasonable.After all, the prince and Ms. Chen are not yet married, but after Ms. Chen's incident broke out, she lived in the East Palace, and everyone praised the prince for his benevolence.I once ran into the prince sending Miss Chen's father, Daxingtai Shangshuling, away from the palace.
At that time, Daxingtai Shangshu made his eyes red and his temples white. Compared with the last time I saw him, he looked at least ten years older.He repeatedly told the prince that he didn't need to see him off, and before leaving, he knelt on the ground and gave the prince a big gift.
Now, Miss Chen lives in the East Palace, but I haven't seen her again.It is said that she still couldn't get out of that incident and stayed behind closed doors.I couldn't attend the New Year's Eve banquet today.
The prince's words made everyone silent, the emperor sighed and waved his hands, "Go, take care and come back early."
But after the prince left, he didn't return for a long time, and it seemed that the end of Haishi was coming.The emperor frowned again and again, and called for someone to go to the East Palace to urge the prince, but in the middle of speaking, he changed his words, "Fourth brother, come and light the lamp this year."
The fourth prince was caught off guard by being named, and he was obviously stunned.In previous years, the crown prince was responsible for lighting the lamps. When the second prince was around, he couldn't do it.
"My son... my son..." the fourth prince stammered, "my son has never lit a lamp, so let's wait for the prince to come back."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a voice from outside the palace to announce, "His Royal Highness has arrived."
When the emperor saw the prince came back, he didn't mention the matter of asking the fourth prince to light the lamp.The fourth prince also sat down as if nothing had happened.
After the palace banquet was over, Concubine Zhuang Guifei seldom had to accompany her, and the emperor stayed with the empress tonight.Concubine Zhuang Gui said she was bored and asked me to accompany her back to Huayang Palace.
The two palace men carried the lanterns, and I was with Concubine Zhuang Gui. The cold on New Year's Eve was not as severe as it was a few days ago.The plum fragrance is sent by the wind from afar, and the night is like water, quiet and elegant.
Concubine Zhuang Gui asked me: "Did you eat enough just now? If you haven't eaten enough, the concubine mother made some dumplings earlier, and I will make them for you when I go back?"
I thought for a while, "I'm a little hungry."
Concubine Zhuang looked at me with a smile, "Mother and concubine are too, we will eat together later."
Concubine Zhuang refused to ask others to help, and went to the small kitchen to cook two bowls of dumplings.Yushanfang also made dumplings tonight, but for some reason, they were not as delicious as Concubine Zhuang's.
Originally at the Lin family in Gusu, they also ate dumplings during Chinese New Year, but they were not made by my mother.At that time, everyone sat around a table, and Lin Chongtan was always the one who attracted the most attention.
Now Lin Chongtan is in the bone-chilling prison.
Although I didn't go to the sky prison again, I also know that Lin Chongtan is not dead.If he dies, the crown prince will tell me even if the news of his death is not announced.
Years later, I also got busy.Since the emperor tested my homework last time, he has asked me to answer questions in front of him every day, sometimes to memorize, and sometimes to test me on court affairs.
I have been in the imperial court for a long time, and I also know something about the previous dynasty.
The third uncle handed over more than [-] papers in a row, and was finally allowed to have a face-to-face consecration, along with his father.
I haven't seen my father for more than half a year, and his figure seems to be much shorter all of a sudden.I froze for a moment, then realized it was because he kept bending over.
I shouldn't be here, but just after I answered half of the questions, my father and third uncle came, and the emperor didn't let me go.
The father bent over and came in from the outside cautiously, not daring to squint.
"The guilty minister Lin Kunjie kowtowed to His Majesty, long live Your Majesty." The father put his head on the floor tiles, and the third uncle also knelt beside him.
"Sinner?" The emperor just said these two words, and the father in the hall shook violently, and then he knelt even closer to the ground.
"What a sinner, tell me where is your crime?"
Father's body trembled again, the excessive silence in the palace made him sweat profusely in the twelfth lunar month of winter, he didn't dare to wipe his sweat, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, the criminal knows that his crime cannot be pardoned, but there is one thing that must be reported to His Majesty. "
"Say."
"The sinner, Lin Chongtan, is actually not the offender's own son. Back then, the offender's wife went to the temple to pray for blessings, but was intercepted and murdered by bandits. When she fled, she fled to a peasant woman's house. The peasant woman and the underworld gave birth on the same day. I thought the peasant woman had a kind heart. As a result, the peasant woman had an evil idea and wanted to exchange the courtiers with their sons. It took thirteen years to exchange.
This son is Lin Chongtan.For the past 13 years, the criminal minister has taken good care of Lin Chongtan, the son of the peasant woman. He pitied my son for being beaten day and night by his adoptive father, a gambling ghost, at the peasant woman's house.Before the death of the peasant woman, she came to the minister's mansion to tell the truth. The minister thought that since the disaster was caused by his mother, and that the peasant woman died, his father was addicted to gambling and passed away a few years ago, so he did not implicate this son, and kept Lin Chong Tan was raised in the mansion.
Therefore, after the criminal minister took the minister back from the farmer's wife, he treated Lin Chongtan like a parent and child, but who knew that he would do such unfaithful, filial, benevolent and unrighteous things when he grew up.On the other hand, my son, who was raised by a peasant woman, was born weak, and passed away within a few years of being happy at the knees of his ministers.
Your Majesty, the guilty minister brought along the family tree, and the minister has expelled Lin Chongtan from the family tree, and he will never be a member of the Lin clan!"
Father, no, I should call him Lin Kunjie now.Every time he said a word, various images of him praising Lin Chongtan flashed in my mind, and also flashed how Mrs. Lin hugged Lin Chongtan to call his heart and soul.
Finally, what appeared in front of me was Lin Chongtan in the dungeon.
It turns out that everything a person owns is so easy to lose. Has he thought about his present?
