Chapter 128(1/2)
"improvise?"
In the inn, Lin Xiu looked at Qin Wan and asked in confusion: "How can I make do with it?"
Qin Wan said: "You sleep in the bed, I can sleep on the ground."
Lin Xiu understood, it was obvious that tonight, someone was as homeless as him.
It's already very late now, and a curfew is about to come. At that time, all inns will be closed and there is no time for him to find another one.
As a married man, in principle, you cannot live in the same room with other women except your wife, because you need to avoid suspicion, even if the two people are innocent.
But Lin Xiu got into a fake marriage, and was actually a free man. He would live with whoever he wanted. Even Zhao Lingjun was not qualified to accuse him.
He nodded and said, "I have to do this."
In the past, Zhao Lingjun had concerns that he needed to keep a distance from these beautiful women, but now he doesn't have to think about it so much.
It is a fate to meet Qin Wan every time. Besides, she paid for the money for the room, so Lin Xiu didn't lose much.
Soon, the shopkeeper with a depressed look took the two to a room on the second floor.
After the two walked into the room, closed the door, Qin Wan glanced at Lin Xiu and asked, "Young Master Lin is newly married, why did he stay in the inn the next night?"
Lin Xiu also glanced at her and said unwillingly: "Miss Wan'er is the daughter of a powerful man. She has been repeatedly lost to the streets, and she doesn't even have the money to eat a bowl of wontons?"
The two looked at each other and turned their heads at the same time.
Qin Wan is very ignorant.
I stayed in the inn the second day of my wedding. Is Lin Xiu willing to do this?
He just had no choice.
Others are one of the greatest joys in life. Lin Xiu is alone in the empty room and married such a wife. What can he do?
She asked knowingly and deliberately sucked his heart.
Similarly, Lin Xiu's words also made Qin Wan feel very uncomfortable.
If she hadn't been kicked out of the house by that woman often, would she like to stay on the streets? She just didn't have a home to settle down?
Lin Xiu added a few more coins to get the shopkeeper to bring a new set of bedding.
He spread the bedding on the ground and said generously: "I don't have the habit of sleeping on the bed by myself. It's better for women to sleep on the floor. You should sleep on the bed, I'll sleep on the floor."
The last time I let A Ke sleep on the ground, he was exhausted for her to cure her injuries and could not move.
Today is the happiest day after Lin Xiu came to this world. He was in a good mood, so it would be okay to let her go.
Qin Wan is a smart person, and even if Lin Xiu didn't say anything, she could guess what she could.
She walked to the table, poured herself a cup of tea, and said, "The fairy should stay in the sky. It is better to marry an ordinary woman than to marry a fairy as her wife..."
Qin Wan's words are every word, but unfortunately Lin Xiu has no right to choose.
Fortunately, Zhao Lingjun is a very reasonable person. Lin Xiu felt that although his marriage with Li Baizhang also failed, he was much luckier than Li Baizhang. If he knew the consensus reached by Lin Xiu and Zhao Lingjun, his inner beliefs might collapse...
Lin Xiu glanced at Qin Wan and said, "I just don't want to go back. Miss Wan'er obviously has a home, but she still wants to stay in an inn. Why is that?"
Qin Wan did not answer Lin Xiu, walked to the bed, slept with her clothes, and said, "It's getting late, let's go to bed..."
He didn't want to say more, and Lin Xiu didn't ask more.
It's great to have someone to accompany you at night.
Although it is on the same bed and under the same bed, it is still a companion.
Even though he was used to loneliness, he still wanted to have a companion.
The next morning, when Lin Xiu got up, Qin Wan had not woken up.
It was absolutely incredible for Lin Xiu to check in with a beautiful woman of this level but did nothing.
He went downstairs to have breakfast, brought another serving for Qin Wan, then left the inn and headed straight to the palace.
When Qin Wan woke up, she smelled the fragrance of buns.
The bedding on the ground has been cleaned up, and Lin Xiu has also left here.
She walked to the table and ate two buns, one with vegetarian stuffing and the other with meat stuffing. The taste was very good and she liked to eat them. She didn't choose much about eating them. For a long time, she could fill her stomach and was already very happy for her.
She originally thought that among the powerful people in the royal capital, she was the only one who often fell homeless.
Later she discovered that there were people like her who could not go back to her home.
She suddenly felt a little happier.
And it's a bit pitiful Lin Xiu.
Without knowing her preferences, the buns he brought were one meat and one vegetable, which shows how delicate he was. Through several brief contacts with him and Xue Ning'er's attitude towards him, it was not difficult for Qin Wan to see that he understood women's thoughts very well.
If he had a heart, there would be no need for women around him.
Unfortunately, he met Zhao Lingjun. No matter how skillful he had, he had nowhere to do it...
...
Royal Palace.
Emperor Xia was walking in the imperial garden early in the morning. Zhu Jin walked forward and said, "Your Majesty, Lin Xiu did not return to the marriage residence last night."
Emperor Xia couldn't help laughing and said, "It's interesting. On the night of the wedding night, the bride ran away. On the first day of the wedding, the groom ran away again. The two late Lin and Zhao families, when they made a marriage contract, they would never have thought of these..."
Lin Xiu and Zhao Lingjun's resistance to this engagement was more intense than he expected.
Of course, he liked this.
A genius of extraordinary skills and a genius of martial arts. If they are kind and loving, their husband and wife live in harmony, they will be worried.
After walking in the imperial study for a while, a eunuch suddenly came to report to Lin Xiu for a visit.
Emperor Xia was slightly surprised and asked, "What did he do when he saw me?"
Soon, he waved his hand and said, "Let him come here."
Under the guidance of a eunuch, Lin Xiu came to a small pavilion in the Imperial Garden, bowed to the Xia Emperor sitting there, and said, "See Your Majesty."
Emperor Xia glanced at him and said, "You have only been married for two days. If you don't accompany your wife, what's the matter with me?"
Lin Xiu said: "I want to borrow some money from Your Majesty."
Emperor Xia was stunned for a moment when he heard this. Since he ascended the throne, he had never met a minister who borrowed money from him.
Lin Xiu is the first one.
He looked at Lin Xiu in surprise and said, "The two stores you opened with the King of Qin are not an exaggeration to say that you make money every day. Will you lack silver?"
Lin Xiu said: "Although the store makes money, it cannot afford to buy the house of the royal capital. I borrow money from His Majesty to buy the house."
This was the first time he met a minister who borrowed money from him. Emperor Xia said, "How much do you borrow?"
Lin Xiu said: "Two hundred thousand taels."
"Twenty-hundred thousand taels?" Xia Emperor glared at him and said unhappily: "Twenty-hundred thousand taels are enough to buy a five-entry mansion in the most prosperous area of Dongcheng. Didn't I just reward you with a wedding residence? Why do you want to buy it again? Are you addicted to buying a house?"
Lin Xiu sighed and said, "The Feng Shui of the wedding residence seems not very good. I feel uncomfortable living in it. I want to buy another residence for myself. Since Your Majesty does not want to borrow money from me, I should just live in the wedding residence. It is also just right to cultivate more feelings with my wife, and strive to pass on the Lin family's family as soon as possible, so as not to delay Your Majesty's appreciation of flowers, and I will leave..."
"Wait!" Emperor Xia was stunned for a moment, immediately called Lin Xiu, and couldn't wait to say to Zhu Jin: "Take him to choose a house immediately. He will give him any one he likes, even if it is given to him..."
What jokes are they, cultivating feelings and passing on the family line, what should their couple do?
It would be better for them not to fulfill their families and have children in their entire lives, this is what he wants to see.
As long as they can be separated, what is a mere house?
He also gave ten houses.
...
On the streets of the royal capital Dongcheng, Lin Xiu was accompanied by Zhu Jin to look at the house.
There are many empty houses here that belong to the court. His Majesty occasionally rewards them to heroes or powerful people. In short, this is already the third house that was rewarded to Lin Xiu.
After seeing more than ten sets of mansions, Lin Xiu finally chose the largest five-entry mansion and said, "This one is it."
Zhu Jin smiled and found the deed of the house and land deed and handed it to Lin Xiu, saying, "Young Master Lin, it's not our family that our Majesty is too good to you. If this mansion is sold to the public, it will definitely not be less than 200,000 taels of silver..."
Lin Xiu glanced at him and said, "Mr. Zhu, everyone is an old fox. Don't say these boring words. Why did Your Majesty give me a house? You and I know in your heart that you don't have to pretend to me here..."
Zhu Jin's smile was calm. Lin Xiu was really merciless in his words.
He glanced at Lin Xiu and said, "Our family's errand has been completed. I've gone back to the palace to report my life. By the way, I haven't congratulated you on your wedding yet. Tsk tsk, there seems to be no congratulations. If you can't use a gun, it's so uncomfortable..."
Lin Xiu smiled and said, "If you have a gun, don't use it. It's different from not having a gun. Do you think it's, General Manager Zhu?"
Zhu Jin snorted coldly and left with her sleeves.
Lin Xiu took the house deed and land deeds and was not angry at Zhu Jin's words at all.
It’s just that it can’t be used on Zhao Lingjun, and it’s not that it can’t be used forever.
He can finally pursue his happy life.
A moment later, in the Pear Blossom Garden.
