Grandma Zhang greeted her, but Grandma He's tears suddenly fell down. Looking at the girl who was polite to Grandma Zhang, time seemed to go back more than ten years. At that time, the girl in front of her was still in her infancy.
Lin Yutong felt a focused gaze. She did not turn around to look, because she could not feel the slightest malice, so there was no need to worry about it. Thinking about it, she knew it was someone close to Concubine Gan.
Nanny Zhang glanced in the direction of the screen wall, quickly looked away, and helped Lin Yutong get on the carriage.
Seeing how Lin Yutong raised his hands and made movements without rigid rules, he was casual and elegant. Even though he was dissatisfied with Concubine Gan, he could not feel any disgust towards her daughter.
Lin Yutong sat on the sedan chair and followed the corridor in the middle road until she reached the courtyard of Wujin, and then she reached the main courtyard where the princess lived. She didn't know what the princess had to do with Concubine Gan, but it was up to her to invite her into the mansion.
, and he really wanted to see himself, which Lin Yutong found very strange.
"We're here." Nanny Zhang helped Lin Yutong down, "The princess is looking forward to it."
Lin Yutong smiled slightly and said nothing, and concentrated on holding on to Grandma Zhang's handwriting, and went up the steps and went inside.
The curtains were opened, and I felt the warmth inside. I couldn't see the entire hall. What blocked my eyes was a sixteen-fold screen with rich peonies. I walked around the screen, looked up, and saw a man in his thirties sitting on the couch opposite.
She is a woman with a very simple slate-colored coat and skirt, and only a white jade hairpin on her head. She is really plainer than the widows. It is said that this princess is cultivating at home, which seems to be true.
It's not fake either.
Not allowing her to think too much, she quickly took two steps forward to salute, but she was helped up by a pair of hands. Li Xiangjun's face showed a bit of love and envy: "Don't see anyone else when you get here, sit down quickly. It's cold on the way.
It's broken." He said, pulling Lin Yutong to sit on the couch, "Bring a bowl of ginger tea..." He explained here, and reached out to untie Lin Yutong's cloak.
This is a little too enthusiastic.
Lin Yutong didn't dare to ask others to untie him, so he untied himself quickly and handed it over to the girl waiting on the side. "The princess is so polite, it makes me, a junior, frightened." She smiled sweetly and supported Li Xiangjun in turn.
Sit down. Then sit down on the side.
Li Xiangjun couldn't help but look Lin Yutong up and down. When he came in just now, the child was wearing a big red tapestry cloak, wrapped tightly. On the edge of the cloak, there was a circle of snow-white fox fur, which made his little face look more and more attractive.
Yingbai. Now, when she took off the cloak and looked at it, the honey color turned out to be very suitable for her. Seeing that she was wearing a pearl on her head, she took off the bracelet on her hand, took the girl's hand and put it on her
"Now that I am getting older, this thing looks better on a little girl."
Lin Yutong was no longer surprised. She really felt that the princess probably didn't know that she was Concubine Gan's daughter, right? Otherwise, how could she be so close to her? This bracelet is a hundred-treasure bracelet with a base made of pure gold and inlaid with inlays.
Five-color pearls and five-color gems. The colors of the pearls and gems must be staggered, but the size and brightness must be the same. This is even harder to find. What’s more, this one was taken off the wrist by Princess Heng, which is even more valuable. Lin Yutongdu
I felt that I had received a bit of a loss. "It's too expensive, it's really..."
Li Xiangjun pressed Lin Yutong's hand: "Don't be afraid! My child! I know whose daughter you are. If there weren't such disgusting things, I would really love you. Your mother and I have known each other since we were six years old.
, the two families actually live next to each other. There is a dog hole in the wall of the back garden. We drill the dog hole back and forth as children. You come to me and I come to you. It’s like this... we stay together until we grow up.
.It's just fate that makes people... When I see you, I like you in my heart." After all, Ganquan still has a daughter, which is also a thought. With this thought, I can endure no matter how hard it is. But what about myself? I am so
What is the meaning of living?
Lin Yutong really didn't know this. She was a little stunned.
Li Xiangjun shook her head: "It's okay, I just want to see you." After saying that, she handed Lin Yutong a piece of ginger tea and said, "Drink it while it's hot."
Lin Yutong took it and didn't know how to continue talking. One was the wife and the other was the concubine. Even if they were friends, they couldn't coexist peacefully. But she really didn't feel any malice from Li Xiangjun.
This was the first time Lin Yutong had seen this situation. Of course, if she knew Prince Heng's true physical condition, she wouldn't be so surprised.
But now she couldn't figure it out no matter how much she thought about it. She only felt horrified.
Li Xiangjun smiled bitterly in his heart, who could reveal those things, and who dared to reveal them? She stood up and pulled Lin Yutong, "Come, follow me to the greenhouse. The people who serve you are attentive. Although it is cold this year, there are many flowers."
It’s still open.”
Lin Yutong followed his example, stood up, took the cloak, put it on, and went out. After walking around two doors, he found the garden. The further he walked, the clearer Lin Yutong was. He was probably taking him to see Concubine Gan.
Sure enough, from a distance, I saw a person dressed as a servant woman looking towards the door of the greenhouse.
Li Xiangjun stopped for a moment, turned around and dusted off the snow from Lin Yutong: "Go! Your mother... it's not easy for her either."
Lin Yutong blessed himself respectfully, then turned around and walked towards the greenhouse. He felt heavy with every step he took.
When they got closer, the nanny suddenly knelt down: "Little master..."
Lin Yutong was startled: "Old man, please get up..."
Mrs. Gan inside had already stood up when she heard Nanny He say, "Here we come." When she heard her call out, "Little Master," she rushed over. When she reached the door, she stretched out her hands to lift the door.
The curtain was closed, but she paused. She clenched her hands tightly and felt panicked for no reason. When she heard a pleasant voice calling, she couldn't help but take two steps back and raised her hand to touch it again.
Touching my head, I didn't know if my hair was messed up. I smoothed my hair with my hands, and couldn't help but lower my head. Yesterday, I chose a light purple outfit. Now it seems to be inappropriate again. My daughter
I'm already married. Isn't this dress a bit frivolous?
The more I thought about it, the more panicked I became. Just when I was feeling annoyed and didn't know what to do, the thick curtain was suddenly opened, and the cold wind rushed in, making Mr. Gan who was standing at the door shiver violently.
She couldn't help but raise her head, and a figure walked in with a slight stoop, and the curtain was lowered immediately. When she stood up straight and raised her head, all Gan's panic disappeared.
Even though there was no light behind her, and even though the thick hair covered half of her face, she still knew that this was her child. Tears were rolling in her eyes, her lips were opening and closing, but her throat seemed to be blocked at this moment.
She couldn't make a sound. She wanted to reach out and touch the child's face, but she was worried that the child would dislike it, so she raised her hand and froze on the spot.
Lin Yutong was really amazed by Gan's face. His current face is also stunning, but compared with Gan's, it seems to be a little lacking. Moreover, Gan takes good care of himself and looks like he is twenty-three or four years old.
She looked like such a young mother... She retracted her divergent thoughts and looked at Gan who was frozen in place. She slowly reached out her hand, held her hand and supported her, "How have you been... these years?"
"Okay... pretty good." Mrs. Gan held Lin Yutong's hand with her backhand, "Is it cold? Sit by the charcoal stove."
Lin Yutong agreed and followed her and the two of them sat down on the couch. Gan grabbed Lin Yutong's hand with his left hand and held on to it, stretched out his right hand to touch Lin Yutong's face, lifted the hair on his forehead, and smiled all of a sudden.
She smiled and shed tears, "When I was born, I knew you were like me, and sure enough..."
Gan's hand couldn't stop trembling when she put it on Lin Yutong's cheek. Lin Yutong stretched out a hand and pressed it on her hand, trying to take Gan's hand off her face, but when he touched her
On the wrist, the smile on Lin Yutong's face suddenly disappeared. The pulse was obviously because Gan had suffered internal injuries and had been there for some time, but he had not received proper treatment. I am afraid that he may feel pain in his lower abdomen now.
A concubine, what kind of accidental injury can injure her lower abdomen?
Mrs. Gan felt the change in her daughter's mood and smiled a little reluctantly, "I can't help you. I often regret that I didn't take you out. However, the more days go by, the more glad I am that I didn't take you away..."
Lin Yutong grabbed Gan's arm: "He... did he hit you?"
"No!" Mrs. Gan was stunned at first, then quickly retracted her hand. How could she forget that Mr. Cao said that his child knew medical skills? It seems that the medical skills are not bad, and she didn't know when she learned them. After she finished speaking,
Only then did he feel that his tone of voice was a bit high and his answer was a bit loud. He stood up, poured a cup of hot tea and handed it over, "Warm it first."
Lin Yutong took the tea and put it aside. He pulled Mr. Gan to sit down and said, "Lean on the couch and put your legs up."
Mr. Gan waved his hand, "No need. You kid..."
Before he finished speaking, he felt a chill on his stomach, and the hem of his cotton-padded jacket was lifted by Lin Yutong.
Lin Yutong looked at the remaining black and blue marks, as well as several old and new whip marks, and the veins on her forehead suddenly popped out. She looked at Gan in disbelief, "Does this mean you haven't been beaten yet?"
Mrs. Gan was a little embarrassed. She didn't want her children to see her in such a miserable state, "It's okay! It was all an accident..."
An idea suddenly flashed in Lin Yutong's mind. Prince Heng had no children. The fourth master once told her that he suspected that Gan's miscarriage was fake. She thought that Prince Heng was probably infertile. But when she met Princess Heng, she discovered that Heng
The princess had no ill feelings towards Gan, which she found strange. But now looking at the injuries on Gan's body, she had a guess. If Prince Heng is not gay | Love is sexual | Incompetent. If he likes the same sex, then he has not been able to
It is impossible that there is no clue revealed. Then it can only be sexual incompetence.
"How can you bear this kind of day?" Lin Yutong froze Gan on the couch in embarrassment and helped her tidy up her clothes, "We are mother and daughter, there is nothing to be embarrassed about in front of me."
Gan's tears that had not fallen fell all of a sudden. She touched her face casually, coughed to cover up, and then sat up, "Don't talk about these things, tell me about all these years."
How are you doing?"
OK?
"The Lin family doesn't lack me." Lin Yutong shook his head, "Anyway, I'm all grown up now. I'm not cold or hungry. That's okay."
This understatement made Gan feel even more uncomfortable.
As he was talking, the door curtain shook, and Nanny He said softly from outside: "Master, please hurry up..."
Mrs. Gan glanced outside and immediately sat upright, "Tell me the truth, are you living well in the Duke's Mansion?"
Lin Yutong smiled: "Okay! I'm really living a good life. I don't pay attention to Mrs. Chu's tricks. Now, what worries me is that Jin Chengan is not getting along with the Chu family."
"Afraid of being implicated?" Mrs. Gan chuckled, "Nothing will happen in the short term. With the Chu family... it will be a long time, and being under her control is not an option. This time I tried to find a way to alarm the eldest princess. The eldest princess will definitely alarm the palace.
It belongs to a concubine in the palace. This concubine has raised the current emperor for several years and has a transcendent status in the palace. I am afraid that this year will not be easy for the Chu family."
Lin Yutong really didn't know that Mrs. Gan was working so hard behind her back. She moved the corner of her mouth, but did not say any words of thanks. She just said: "The bird thief captured the king first. I would rather touch the Prime Minister of Chu. Prince Heng used gold to make peace.
But Chu Yuan, the prime minister, is a stumbling block. If we can get hold of Chu Yuan, we can not only remove the stumbling block, but also control Jin Chengan. What's more, I suspect that the events of the Gan family back then have something to do with Chu Yuan..."
Gan pressed down Lin Yutong's hand: "Don't interfere in this matter. Remember!"
Lin Yutong whispered about the Gao family's affairs, "I am afraid that the Gao family's abilities are limited and there is no support from above, so it will be inconvenient to go down there."
Mrs. Gan understood what Lin Yutong meant. She wanted to ask her to propose a plan to Prince Heng. She asked him to use Jin Chengan on the one hand, and on the other hand, use the knife on Jin Chengan's back. This idea was really a good idea. She couldn't help laughing.
Now, this is really her daughter. Some things don’t need to be taught. It’s as if they are engraved in her bones and she can play smoothly. She patted her daughter’s head and said, “I can’t tell the prince about this.” As she said that, her eyes narrowed slightly.
He narrowed his eyes and said, "When the emperor ascended the throne, he must have relied on Chu Yuan's help. Otherwise Chu Yuan would not have been so successful. But there are some things that you probably don't know. Prince Heng worshiped your grandfather as his disciple since he was a child..."
ah?
The emperor, who was still a prince at the time, was able to send his son to the Gan family to become a disciple, and Gan Haichao also accepted this disciple. This proved that the relationship between the Gan family and the emperor was not distant, and was even very close. So if something happened to the Gan family, could the emperor at that time not
Do you know? Can Prince Heng not know? They are not only insiders, but also conspirators. They are even pawns who were abandoned to protect the commander.
Seeing that Lin Yutong understood, Mrs. Gan said: "However, your idea is right. The Gao family can also use it. It doesn't matter what the Gao family has or what they find out. As long as they have this position that they can't get along with the Chu family.
.When the time comes, the prince will come up with the handle on Chu Yuan. What the Gao family has to do is to take the handle from the prince and then poke it out. But this will all have to wait until the prince can successfully sit on the throne.
seat……"
Lin Yutong's heart skipped a beat, and he glanced at Gan's mountain again: "Then what?" He beats you like this now, but what will happen when he secures his seat?
Mrs. Gan smiled coolly: "My child, your mother, I am not a person who suffers losses. The more I suffer, the greater the loss, the greater the price I have to pay for the other party..."
Lin Yutong really heard the smell of ambition from here. Her heart suddenly relaxed, "There is something that may be useful to Prince Heng. The old lady in the mansion has been here for three to five months, and there will be a funeral by then.
Even if the emperor seizes love and does not need Jin Chengan to guard for three years, the funeral will not be completed for three months before and after. And the emperor..." He is old, and if it is true, he will die at this point. Prince Heng does not have Jin Cheng
With this help, An could only stare blankly.
A flash of light flashed in Mr. Gan's eyes, and the corners of his mouth turned up, "In the next few months, you stay here and don't go anywhere. A big change may be coming soon. The emperor has suffered a stroke, and the prince has long been unable to hold it back.
Come on, if he knew that there might be such a risk on Jin Chengan's side, he would not be so forbearing anymore...especially when Prince Duan is planning to change the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard."
Is it really necessary to force the palace to kill the king?
Yes! Why not? Lin Yutong didn't dare to guarantee that the old lady would live for three to five months. If something unexpected happened during this period, such as being stimulated or something, he would probably say no, no. Prince Heng also said
I really wouldn't take the risk.
But for such a cold-hearted person, "Are you really confident that you can control such a person? I heard that he has been asking a Taoist priest named Xu to make elixirs for him..."
"Tongtong!" The look on Mrs. Gan's face became solemn, and she held Lin Yutong's hand, "Child! There are some things here... that are too dirty! Don't get your hands dirty. Mother can handle these things.
"
Lin Yutong understood this mentality. As long as he had the ability, his daughter should be pampered and loved. He wished he could put her in a vacuum cover. The corner of his mouth moved, but he didn't say anything. Gan had her
Worry, the future is unknown. Who knows who will lose and who will win. If you don’t intervene now, you will be less likely to be implicated in the future.
"Live a good life with my uncle, and let's talk about it when things are roughly settled and the world changes." Mrs. Gan looked at Bai Xue outside the window, "If there is any accident, don't let me go to Duke Jin's Mansion."
I'm stunned. If my uncle is willing to live with you, you can go together to find Shi Zhongyu, and she will arrange a retreat for you. If my uncle is unwilling to leave, don't be stupid. You still have a long life..."
"Mother..." Lin Yutong shouted, looking at Mr. Gan and shaking his head.
The sound of 'Mother' made Mr. Gan laugh all of a sudden, smiling, tears streaming down his face uncontrollably, "That's the quickest plan. We won't really get to that point."
Seeing Mrs. Gan's look, Lin Yutong interrupted and told her about the Miao family's affairs, "Even if I don't need these things now, I still have to tell you so that I can understand them..."
Before she finished speaking, Nanny He opened the curtain and came in, "Master, the princess has sent someone to invite you."
Mrs. Gan wiped away the tears on her face and pulled Lin Yutong to stand up, "Please? Let's go. There will be a long time to come, and we will see you. Princess... you treat her like a serious elder, she won't
He will treat you as an outsider. He is an honest person..." Before leaving, I felt that time passed too fast and there are still many things that have not been explained. "You are still young. Don't be in a hurry to have a child. Otherwise, your health will
I can't bear it. Don't think that my uncle is looking down on her because he has no future..." She was rambling, and the more she talked, the more things she didn't explain.
Aunt He glanced outside again: "Master, I'm afraid the prince is already waiting in the room..."
The princess knew that the prince was back and was looking for her master, so she quickly sent someone to pick up the girl, so as not to make the prince unhappy again.
Lin Yutong smiled and said: "I know it all in my heart." As he said that, he lowered his head and looked at Gan's belly, "This injury... I went back to prepare the medicine myself and gave it to Shi Zhongyu. You can ask grandma to go out and get it tomorrow.
"There is it in the space, but I can't take it out now. I didn't go out as a guest and took the medicine with me. I didn't know beforehand that Gan was injured."
Mrs. Gan responded, stretched out her arms to hug Lin Yutong, and patted her on the back of her head. When Aunt He made a sound again, she suddenly let go, then quickly turned around and gave Lin Yutong a back view.
, urged: "Mother He, send her out..."
Lin Yutong knelt down and kowtowed before getting up and following Grandma He out.
When Aunt He handed her over to the girls sent by the two princesses, Lin Yutong couldn't help but turn her head and glance back. She saw a figure flashing and the door curtain shook violently. This was Mrs. Gan hiding behind the door curtain.
Mrs. Gan covered her mouth and let her tears flow down. She didn't dare to let the child see it. She also didn't dare to see the child turn around. She was afraid that she wouldn't be able to bear it anymore and would never let the child go...
