Chapter 19: The owner of the jade pendant, dismount
Lin Liangchen touched Xu Han's forehead, and said worriedly: "Master, are you okay, why are you smiling?"
Xu Han remained silent, looked at Lin Liangchen and said, "You will know in the future."
It is said that when people are in crisis, they always ignore the most important things, and he thinks this is always true.
The battle at the border has lasted for about four months. Twenty days ago, it was said that the border has been victorious. If there are no accidents, after about ten days, that person should come back, right?
Lin Liangchen saw that Xu Han was full of thoughts, guessed that he was thinking about something, stared at his face that had been exposed to the wind and snow for five years, touched it lightly, sighed, and withdrew his hand from Xu Han's hand, Get something that smoothes the skin.
Xu Han had a plan in mind, and Lin Liangchen was much less worried. He wrote a letter to Han and Xu Fang, and found out the jade pendant he had received from others back then.
Lingering the jade pendant in her hand, Lin Liangchen couldn't help frowning. This jade pendant was given by that person as a token of gratitude when she was saving someone by the river.
but...
Now, if I ask the owner of this jade pendant, will that person help?
Lin Liangchen felt uneasy, and was afraid that the owner of this jade pendant was also one of several princes, so...
On the contrary, she didn't help, and might add more trouble?
Lin Liangchen suddenly fell into a blind spot and felt restless. Fortunately, Lin Liangchen had a good memory and remembered that the owner of the jade pendant had something to do with Lu Yi, otherwise it would be difficult.
Passed the post to Lu Yi. On the second day, Lin Liangchen disguised himself as a man and took his servant to the Lu Mansion. I haven't seen him for a while, but Lu Yi looked thinner and paler than before, wearing navy blue. The robe was strangely pale.
After seeing the ceremony, Lin Liangchen explained his intention.
"I didn't want to trouble you, Brother Lu, but this matter is too urgent, so I ask Brother Lu for help."
"Help me explain. On a good day, just say it." Lu Yi coughed as soon as he opened his mouth.
"Brother Lu, are you okay?" Lin Liangchen said, and quickly handed him the tea. "If Brother Lu is not feeling well, I'd better come back another day."
Lu Yi has become so ill, so Lin Liangchen can make other requests?
Lu Yi took a sip of hot tea,
After a while, he waved his hands, "It's okay, I just feel the wind and cold occasionally, it will be fine in a few days, what you just wanted to say, let's continue now."
"How can this be done? Brother Lu, let's ask a doctor to take a look. After seeing the doctor, we can make a decision." Lin Liangchen's attitude was very stiff.
Lu Yi looked up at Lin Liangchen for a moment, then suddenly laughed, "Did Liangchen forget that I am a doctor myself?"
Lin Liangchen was stunned, "Isn't it true that doctors don't heal themselves? It's better to hire a doctor. Besides, brother Lu is so sick, how can I, as a girl, order you around?"
Lu Yi coughed again, wiped his mouth with a handkerchief and said, "That's true."
After Lu Yi saw the doctor and took another dose of medicine, Lin Liangchen took out the jade pendant he was carrying, shook it in front of him a few times and said, "Do you know this jade pendant?"
Back then, Lu Yi thanked her for his cousin. If her guess is correct, then the cousin should be the one she saved.
Naturally, Lu Yi knew Si Kongxiao's jade pendant, but he never expected that Si Kong Xiao would give that jade pendant to Lin Liangchen, let alone that Lin Liangchen would take it out at this moment.
"Brother Lu. What's the matter?"
Doesn't Lu Yi know?
"It's nothing, I know this jade pendant, but if you want to see the owner of the jade pendant..."
"What's the problem?" Can't Lu Yi bring her to meet?
Lu Yi shook his head, "It's nothing. Since you want to see me, I'll take you there tomorrow."
tomorrow...
She has a shop to open...
After thinking about it, Lin Liangchen decided to postpone the opening of the shop and talk to the owner of the jade pendant first, "Okay, then I'll come back tomorrow, I'll go back first, Brother Lu, take a good rest, and say hello to me and my sister-in-law."
After Lin Liangchen left, Lu Yi called the secret guards and sent people to Prince An's Mansion to deliver a letter to Si Kongxiao, and waited for Ming'er to arrive.
Postponing the opening of the shop, the shopkeeper below naturally had something to say, but Lin Liangchen insisted, and the shopkeeper had no choice but to persuade, "Ma'am, there is only one good day left this month. If you miss it, you will miss it." We'll have to wait for next month."
"Then wait until next month." Lin Liangchen was very straightforward, and now it was the shopkeeper's turn to be speechless.
"Okay, I'll follow Madam's orders, and we'll arrange it like this."
"Go quickly." Lin Liangchen waved his hand, and the shopkeeper pushed it down.
When Xu Han came back from duty that day, Lin Liangchen asked him to go to bed early, hesitated for a moment but did not dare to tell him that she was going to see someone else tomorrow.
"Daughter-in-law, you should go to bed earlier, it's not good to stay up too late."
"Yep."
Early the next morning, after giving instructions to the two servants who had come to follow Xu Jun recently, after breakfast, they dressed up and went to Lu Mansion. When they met Lu Yi, they went straight to the place Lu Yi had mentioned.
For this meeting, Si Kongxiao didn't arrange to be in Prince An's Mansion, but went around and went to a different courtyard.
Si Kongxiao didn't know much about Lin Liangchen. After inquiring about Lin Liangchen's family that year, he left Shanghe Village in a hurry after recovering from his injuries, so he didn't know that Lu Yi also knew Lin Liangchen.
"I said cousin, you are too unkind. You knew who my savior was and didn't tell me?"
As soon as Lin Liangchen took out the jade pendant, Si Kongxiao complained about Lu Yi, and when he knew that Lin Liangchen was a guest at Lu Yi's house before, he was surprised and speechless.
"So, the fourth-rank general appointed by the emperor is..."
Lin Liangchen smiled slightly, "That's my husband."
"So that's how it is." Si Kong Xiao glanced at Lu Yi intentionally or unintentionally, with a wicked smile on the corner of his mouth. Needless to say, Lu Yi also knew that smile, it was Si Kong Xiao hinting at him.
He hummed casually, and said coldly: "Liang Chen needs your help with something, don't patronize laughing and joking."
"Cousin, you're wrong, right? I'm just too excited to see my savior."
Lin Liangchen remained silent, and quietly looked at the two cousins. Although they were cousins, no matter how you looked at them, Lin Liangchen didn't see any similarities between them.
After the two finished talking, they realized that Lin Liangchen was still here, and coughed awkwardly. Explained to Si Kongxiao the reason for coming this time.
Si Kongxiao naturally knew what Lu Yi said, but he didn't pay much attention to this reminder before. He frowned and thought: "This matter is indeed difficult, but since you are my savior and his righteous sister, I will naturally help."
Everyone in the court knew that Prince An's Mansion had always been loyal to the emperor and would not associate with any forces. As long as he asked his old man, it should be resolved.
Lin Liangchen stood up and saluted, "Thank you, young master."
Although I don't know the name. But thank you is still to thank.
Lin Liangchen's lack of arrogance and impetuosity, and politeness made Si Kongxiao's impression a little confused. If Sikongxiao knew that Lin Liangchen spoke in such a soft voice for the sake of being polite, he would be even more confused.
He raised his eyebrows. Looking straight at Lin Liangchen a few times, seeing her good looks, she deliberately frowned at Lu Yi, showing deep meaning, when Lu Yi's knife-like eyes swept over, Gu Zuoyan said to him: "Lin... How many children are there in Madam's family?"
Lin Liangchen was stunned for a moment, "Three."
"Oh. Three, Brother Lin is so convincing." I couldn't help but admire Lin Liangchen. These three children still look like young girls in their teens, as if they haven't changed since then.
Lin Liangchen smiled without saying a word, as a tacit agreement.
"I heard that Mrs. Lin is good at kung fu, right?" Si Kongxiao seemed to remember something. Surprised.
Lin Liangchen still smiled slightly, "What kind of kung fu will it be, it's just a bit of strength."
"Really?" Sikong Xiao smiled nicely.
Two men, one woman, after the matter is finished. Naturally, there was nothing to talk about. After drinking a cup of tea, Lu Yi got up and sent Lin Liangchen back.
But after the two left, all the smiles on Si Kongxiao's face disappeared, and she was holding the jade pendant in her hand, as indifferent as ice.
After going the way of Si Kongxiao, within three days, there was a post from Prince An's Mansion, saying that Princess An invited noble ladies from the capital to enjoy the flowers and invited Lin Liangchen to come.
After leaving the other courtyard that day, Lu Yi told Lin Liangchen about Si Kongxiao, and knew that Sikongxiao was the son of Prince An.
Lin Liangchen stared at Lu Yi for a long time, and finally asked: "Who is this Prince An?"
Why can she cope with what she wants to solve in one breath.
"This? We have to start with the secrets of the previous dynasty."
Hearing the word "secret matter", although Lin Liangchen wanted to hear it, he rationally interrupted Lu Yi's thoughts of continuing. It is better for her to know as little as possible about such royal secrets.
But what makes Lin Liangchen feel strange is that since he has such a noble status, why did the young man push Si Kongxiao into the river and try to drown him?
It's too unreasonable.
Lin Liangchen was full of questions in his heart, but he didn't dare to say anything. He suddenly realized that after coming to the capital, there were too many things that he couldn't ask or inquire about.
Thinking of this, Lin Liangchen couldn't help but support her forehead, being a human being is really tiring, especially now, she feels physically and mentally exhausted.
If possible, Lin Liangchen would rather go back to Dahe Village, live his life with peace of mind, earn a little money every day, tinker with flowers and plants, it is more refreshing than it is now.
"you are tired?"
Lin Liangchen glanced at Lu Yi in confusion, and twitched the corner of his mouth, "It's a lie to say you're not tired, I was thinking, no wonder you wanted to live in Dahe Village back then, maybe those days were deserted, but at least you wouldn't As it is now..."
Lu Yi laughed at himself, "Who knows?"
Maybe he really thought so before, but now...
This is too far away to even think about it.
Lin Liangchen naturally didn't dare to refuse the invitation for the post from Prince An's Mansion. After replying to the post, he was ready to accept the appointment.
In fact, there is nothing to prepare for. Most people in the capital know that Xu Han’s background is not very good. Out of clothes ideas.
After cutting the fabric, she made another dress that matched her now, and went to accept the appointment. Prince An's Mansion came to post about it. Lin Liangchen told Xu Han about this on the day he received the post, and communicated with him. tone.
Xu Han was worried that Lin Liangchen would be bullied, and said that he would pick her up after the flower viewing party.
Lin Liangchen sneered, "No need for that."
A group of women meet, who will bully her?
Although he thought that Lin Liangchen would not suffer, Xu Han was still worried. He asked for leave today and sent Lin Liangchen to Prince An's Mansion himself.
"Is it really okay for you to wait outside? Why don't you go in with me?" Lin Liangchen suggested.
"I'm not familiar with King An, so it's not good to visit rashly."
"But..."
"Don't worry, go in quickly. I'll pick you up after the flower viewing party."
After getting out of the car, Lin Liangchen took Liu'er and entered Prince An's mansion with a post. As soon as he entered, a maid invited Lin Liangchen to see Princess An.
When I followed the maid to meet the princess, I happened to pass through many courtyards. There are countless exotic flowers and plants inside.
That pavilion...
It's so magnificent, it's really worthy of a palace, rich and rich.
Lin Liangchen secretly regretted that if she had known that the person she saved back then was so powerful, she should have asked for more money.
After murmuring in my heart for a long time, I felt better.
However, Lin Liangchen didn't know that he bowed his head, kept silent, and his appearance of not being greedy was seen by the girl who led the way. The girl suddenly had a good impression of Lin Liangchen, and within a cup of tea, she went to the courtyard where the princess lived.
Although Lin Liangchen knew that a wealthy family would naturally have many paths to walk, he didn't know. It was the girl who took them a long way on purpose, so they walked for nearly half an hour.
"Mrs. Lin, this is Wangfei's yard. I'll go and tell Sister Hongqiao that I brought someone here."
Lin Liangchen nodded, waiting outside for the good news from the guide girl.
In Rongxuan Hall, Concubine An was leaning on the soft couch and drinking tea in a graceful and luxurious body. A little girl whispered a few words in Hongqiao's ear, Hongqiao raised her eyebrows and looked at Princess An on the soft couch.
He whispered something to the little girl, let the little girl go down, and then went to report to Princess An that Lin Liangchen had come.
"Mr. Lin is here?"
Hong Qiao nodded. "Yes, Xiaozhi said that Mrs. Lin is already waiting outside."
Princess An twirled her long nails, and said with a calm expression: "In that case, let Mrs. Lin come in."
Hong Qiao obeyed obediently and was about to go down. Princess An raised her hand, "Wait a minute, don't be in a hurry, just say that this princess is currently busy with the affairs of the house, and it is inconvenient to see guests now."
Hongqiao knew that Princess An meant to beat Lin Liangchen, so she bowed her body, turned around and went out to order. Lin Liangchen looked at the high-spirited Hongqiao in front of her, looked at her with a half-smile, and said with a cold expression: "In that case , then I have no choice but to come back when the banquet starts, and leave!"
After speaking, he flicked his sleeves and left on the spot.
After walking a few steps, Liu'er was still standing there in a daze, "Liu'er, why don't you hurry up?"
Liu'er came to his senses, heaved his body, and ran over like Lin Liangchen holding up his skirt.
Since Concubine An gave her the power to show her off, she didn't have to accept it. If it wasn't for the fact that she was Concubine An and she was begging Si Kongxiao, she would not have agreed to go to the flower viewing feast.
However, now she has figured it out, begging Si Kongxiao is one thing, but she will never bully Princess An for nothing, no matter if she is a country woman or a woman with orders.
Of Lin Liangchen's move, Hongqiao naturally told Princess An without hesitation. Princess An put the tea cup in her hand and snorted coldly: "It's already giving her face to invite her Lin to come over, and she really treats herself as a What about things?"
Princess An's words were extremely unpleasant, Hongqiao and other girls dared not answer the words, not long after, a little girl came to report to Hongqiao, and Lin Liangchen took the girl to find the prince.
Concubine An couldn't help it, she slammed the table, "How could that woman from the Lin family run to find the prince?"
How did the Lin family know the courtyard where the eldest son was?
No one told Concubine An the answer, and at this moment, Lin Liangchen and Liu'er were already in the courtyard of the prince and concubine.
For Lin Liangchen's unexpected visit, the maid guarding the door naturally refused to let him in, but Lin Liangchen suddenly took out Si Kongxiao's personal jade pendant, and Si Kongxiao's nanny happened to pass by, saw the jade pendant, and rushed over suddenly.
Wanting to go forward to snatch it, after Lin Liangchen took back the jade pendant, the nanny stretched out her hand and asked sharply, "Who are you? Why do you have our son's jade pendant?"
Facing the questioning, Lin Liangchen raised his head and chest, his fierce breath dispersed, and said to the humanity in front of him: "I want to see your son."
The nanny was almost overwhelmed by Lin Liangchen's aura, but the person in front of her looked real, and Nanny An was sure that the woman in front of her was definitely not from Prince An's mansion.
"Who are you?"
"You just need to tell your son, if someone comes to see him with a jade pendant, he will know."
As soon as the words fell, a woman's voice sounded, "Nurse An, why are you arguing with someone at the door?"
But after a while, a pink woman walked towards Nanny An with food.
Seeing that there were two strangers opposite Nanny An, the woman in pink was more seriously suspicious. Lin Liangchen repeated it, but this was much more polite than Nanny An.
Nanny An stared at Lin Liangchen hard, Lin Liangchen narrowed her eyes, Nanny An immediately felt tightness in her chest, and felt uncomfortable for a while.
"Is that so? Can I ask why you are looking for our son?"
Lin Liangchen smiled lightly, "Naturally there is something to do, don't forget, the person with the jade pendant is looking for him."
Just as Nanny An wanted to stop her, the woman in pink had already entered into the concubine's room with exquisite food. After talking about the outside affairs, the concubine of Prince An's mansion asked the girl to invite Lin Liangchen in without saying a word.
In addition, they sent someone to inform Si Kongxiao of Lin Liangchen's arrival in the mansion.
After inviting Lin Liangchen, the little girl immediately reported to the concubine Shizi, "Concubine Shizi, the servant girl found out that Mrs. Lin only brought the girl to us because Princess An used her majesty on Mrs. Lin." , Mrs. Lin has a stubborn temper and left angrily."
When the concubine Shizi heard that she was taken away by Princess An, she sneered and said mockingly: "That old witch really doesn't stop at all."
The little girl who reported the letter lowered her head, and after Shi Zifei laughed, she waved her hand, and the little girl backed out in a moment, but Shi Zifei suddenly got up, smiled and said to the maid beside her: "Go, go see The benefactor who saved our son."
