Rufeng has just been promoted recently.In several battles, she led the female soldiers and made a lot of contributions. Xiao Jingong once promised Lin Xiu to allow women to be officials.Since Xiao Shu'an followed Lin Xiu and left, many female soldiers have emerged one after another who can be relied on, and even surpassed many male officers in ability.

The rise of women has triggered a crisis for men. Men who used to take credit for their pride or were unwilling to make progress began to feel pressure.Xiao Jingong also saw the competition brought about by this kind of benign pressure, so he gradually relaxed the threshold for women to be officials.Moreover, he also gradually felt the benefits of having women in court.In some respects, it is true that women are naturally more suitable than men.Therefore, Rufeng has been reused by Xiao Jingong, and is currently the highest official position among women except Xiao Shuan.

The emperor gave Rufeng a courtyard, and Xie Chen bought the courtyard next to Rufeng at his own expense.Xie Chen was also promoted to an official position, but it was not as good as Rufeng's official university. The emperor promoted her official position, but instead of rewarding the courtyard, he rewarded some gold, silver and jewelry.Xie Chen changed everything into silver and bought the yard next door to Rufeng.

Rufeng was very angry at the beginning, and blamed Xie Chen for not being frugal, and spent all the rewards he just got in a blink of an eye.Since the emperor rewarded her courtyard, how could Xie Chen's room be missing?Just move in and live here.Why spend that money.

But Xie Chen didn't think so. Xie Chen said that the two of them are now generals and ministers in the court, so they should pay attention to their style.Publicity is different from being low-key. Everyone can pretend they don't know and not expose it when they know it, but it's wrong for them to make a publicity unscrupulously.The two generals are not married, so what's the point of living in the same mansion all the time? If it gets out, the emperor will be embarrassed.If she had bought the courtyard next door and opened up the two houses, the long-standing conversation would have been blocked.

After hearing Xie Chen's explanation, Rufeng didn't say anything more after all.Although she is now a general, it doesn't mean she can be free.Doesn't even the princess have to cover up?Even the emperor can't do whatever he wants.Man, there is never absolute freedom.

Lin Zhong walked to the front of the mansion and looked up at the plaque. "Chifeng General's Mansion" is written in gold lacquer in big characters, which are very mighty. These characters are written by the emperor himself.Lin Zhongxin is gentle, and he is happy for her after all.

"Sir, is something wrong?"

The doorman at the mansion saw a young master standing in front of the door. Although Lin Zhong was not wearing an official uniform, he was well-dressed. The doorman felt that he was not an ordinary person, so he went up to ask politely.

Lin Zhong said calmly: "I ask to see General Chifeng."

"I don't know if sir has a greeting card."

"No, but my surname is Lin, please tell me."

"Okay, wait a minute, sir."

The boy turned around and went in to report. Lin Zhong waited in front of the door for a while, and then saw the door boy trotting back.

"Sir, please come in, the general is waiting for you in the backyard."

Lin Zhong nodded slightly, and followed the boy inside.Along the way, although he stared straight ahead, he still silently looked at everything here from the corner of his eye. This was his first time here.There are many flowers and plants in the yard, and on the way to the backyard, there is a pond with many fishes in it.

Cross the path to the backyard, where there are bamboo forests and rockeries.Unknown flowers were planted in the open space beside the path, and a small ditch was dug in the pond in the front yard, leading to the rockery in the backyard, and finally merged into a large pond.Two small bridges were also built at the detour, and the handrails of the bridge railings are very delicately carved.There are many willow trees planted under the wall in the distance.

Lin Zhong inadvertently thought that willows belong to plants in Ganzhou. Planting bamboo forests here does not know whether they can survive for a long time.But after all, it is a woman's yard, and it is indeed much more exquisite than his yard.Just walking around like this made Lin Zhong feel much better.

"Sir, the general is ahead."

The doorman led Lin Zhong to a distance of more than ten meters away from Rufeng and retreated.

Rufeng saw Lin Zhong, and said softly, "Brother Lin."

She still didn't see outside as before, Lin Zhong nodded with a smile, and walked forward slowly.He didn't ignore Xie Chen who was beside Rufeng, she seemed dissatisfied with Rufeng's "Brother Lin" just now.Sitting in front of Shi Zhuo by the pond with a dark face, he fiddled with the stone in his hand unhappily.

"Brother Lin, why are you here today?"

When he arrived, Lin Zhong handed the letter to Rufeng.Before he could open his mouth, Xie Chen snatched the letter and said angrily: "Isn't it Lin Zhong? You still dare to deliver the letter to Ah Feng in front of my face? Are you looking down on me?"

This Lin Zhongming knew about his harmony with Rufeng, and he dared to deliver the letter in front of his face. Xie Chen was furious. Lin Zhong thought she was a woman and looked down on him at all, right?But isn't the same with the princess and the son-in-law? Why doesn't she dare to look down on the son-in-law?

"Xiao Chen." Ru Feng lightly reprimanded Xie Chen, signaling that she shouldn't talk to Brother Lin like this.

"It doesn't matter." Lin Zhong said generously: "Anyone of you can read it. The letter was written by Xiu'er and the princess, inviting us to go to her house together tomorrow."

"The princess and the national teacher are back?" Rufeng still likes to call Lin Xiu the national teacher, she leans behind Xie Chen, and the two read the letter next to each other.

Lin Zhong looked at the two of them, sat down with a smile and poured himself a cup of tea.It's also very good. Seeing that they are all living well, he is also happy as a big brother.Looking sideways at the little fish swimming in the pond, he seemed to be in a better mood.

"The princess has bought a new yard, since it's already here, why don't we go there now?" Rufeng is eager, this is the first time she has been separated from the princess for such a long time, she can't wait to see the princess, and wants to know her past. Well done.

"Not today." Lin Zhong put down his teacup and said slowly, "Xiu'er specifically asked me in the letter not to go there today, as her house hasn't been cleaned up yet. She wants us to go there later tomorrow, and she has to prepare a banquet. That is, we must go there in a low-key manner, so it is best to go after dark."

"Low-key?" Xie Chen was curious. "The princess and the national teacher don't want the emperor to know that they are back?"

"Yeah." Lin Zhong didn't deny it.

Xie Chen nodded, quite understanding of this approach.Later she also heard from Lin Zhong and Rufeng that what the emperor did was really dishonest, the princess and the son-in-law fell in love with each other, so it was the elder brother's turn to intervene, even if he was the emperor, he was too lenient.What happened to the two women, she and Ru Feng are also two women, the emperor really made a fuss.

"Ah Feng, let's go again tomorrow. Since the princess and the national teacher have already invited us, then we don't have to rush for a while, so as not to ruin their plan."

Rufeng understood clearly, presumably the princess and the national teacher must have something to do when they suddenly returned to Ganzhou this time.It is better for them to obey the arrangement, so as not to ruin the plan.

"You are right, then we will go there in plain clothes tomorrow night."

Seeing that his news had been brought, Lin Zhong told those who should be told, had drunk the tea, watched the scenery, and it was time to leave. The lovers are loving and affectionate, so he seems redundant here.

Thinking of Lin Zhong, he got up: "Then I will take my leave, see you tomorrow."

Rufeng was stunned: "Why is Brother Lin so anxious to leave? It's the first time you've come to this house, why don't you leave after eating. Let's catch up and catch up, we haven't chatted with Brother for a long time."

Lin Zhong glanced at Xie Chen nonchalantly, with a little disappointment in his smile: "I won't stay any longer, and I can rest assured that you are doing well. There is no need to chat, and if you have anything to do, go to my house and hand over the seal." Letters are fine, no matter what, our brother-sister relationship is still there."

Rufeng blushed, and what Lin Zhong said made her feel uncomfortable.During this period of time, she had indeed alienated Lin Zhong because of Xie Chen, and she had been trying to avoid suspicion as much as possible, fearing that Xie Chen would be jealous again and be unhappy.But what did Brother Lin do wrong?He just once had that kind of thought.

But if you ask yourself, Lin Zhong never made things difficult for her.He never entangled her, even when he knew the friendship between her and Xie Chen, he gave him generous blessings.For Rufeng, Lin Zhong has always been the one who gave, the one who protected her.Now that she has her own feelings, she is really ashamed to alienate people.

Not only Rufeng thinks so, even Xie Chen is a little uncomfortable at the moment.She admitted that she was unreasonable in this matter.With Lin Zhong's character, no matter what he thought about Rufeng before, he will not have any behavior or thought beyond the rules now.Besides, it's been so long, she really shouldn't be too careful to hold on to it.To some extent, Lin Zhong saved Rufeng.

Xie Chen said uncomfortably, "Since everyone is here, let's stay and have a meal."

Lin Zhong was stunned for a moment, thinking that he had heard wrong.She didn't expect Xie Chen, who had always been hostile to her, to keep him.Apparently he's not really that unpopular either.But Lin Zhong still smiled and shook his head and refused. Others can bite the bullet and keep him, but there is really no need for him to get in the way here.

People in love, he understands.The princess and Xiu'er used to be the same way, they just wanted to be alone with each other every day, the existence of others would only hinder them from getting along, why should he be ignorant.

Tried and tried to persuade Lin Zhong to stay but failed to keep Lin Zhong, Xie Chen felt a little guilty.

"Brother Lin is really sad, right? In the future, he won't ignore us anymore, right?"

Rufeng nodded Xie Chen's head: "You, now you know you have a guilty conscience? You were so annoying to me earlier. If I say a word to Brother Lin, you will be sore."

"I don't care about you."

Rufeng was helpless: "I know you care about me. But Xiaochen, we should also have a priority. When you and I are just playing petty temper, I can indulge you. But when others are around, I can no longer indulge you if you embarrass others." I'm on you. Brother Lin is kind to me, and I've told you all of this. We shouldn't treat him like this, otherwise what's the difference between us and ungrateful people?"

Xie Chen lowered his head lower and lower, and his whole body became listless.

"Afeng, I get it. Didn't I just keep him? He didn't want to stay. I... didn't target him before. I just... When I thought that he liked you, he was still in your last place. When I was helpless, I was by your side. Thinking of these makes me feel bad. I hate, I hate that I was not by your side at that time, and let you go through that. I am also jealous, jealous that Brother Lin was by your side during that time, I Afraid... afraid that he will always be different in your heart."

Both of them felt a little sad when they mentioned the past.Fortunately, the past has passed.Rufeng patted Xie Chen's head lovingly, and leaned her head against his lower abdomen.

"Xiao Chen, the past is the past. Can't we look forward? I don't think about the past anymore. I don't have any other thoughts about Brother Lin, and I won't like him one day. I just don't think we should Hurting a good man who has done us a favor."

"I know." Xie Chen acted coquettishly shaking Rufeng, she didn't want Rufeng to think about those things in the past, and she didn't want the atmosphere to be heavy. "Let's not think about these things anymore. I will get along well with Brother Lin in the future. Why don't we think about what presents we will bring to the princesses tomorrow?"

"Gift?" Rufeng was distracted as expected. "Then we have to think about it."

Xie Chen leaning on Rufeng smiled gratifiedly.Her Ah Feng is just that good.The best thing in the world is Ah Feng, but it's a pity that God is unfair, and Ah Feng has experienced so many bad things.Fortunately, she will accompany Ah Feng in the days to come.She will definitely make Ah Feng happy every day, and never see her frowning again.
