Lin Youde looked up at Lin Hu in surprise, and he realized that his son now looked like an adult. Although he had a childish appearance, he had a firm demeanor and a calm demeanor. His body was as strong as a hill, and the slightly black hair on the corners of his mouth had grown.
He came out. Regardless of his age, he was already a young man. Moreover, he spoke these words with great courage and resoundingly. Although the words were simple, the truth was the same. Unknowingly, his son's body and mind improved.
He is no longer the ignorant young man he used to be.
Suddenly, Lin Youde felt very relieved. He may not have achieved anything in his life, but his son may not be like him. If he could stand out, wouldn't it also make him happy?
"Hu'er is right. Dad has lived a long life, but he is not as open-minded as my little tiger. That's all, let's not talk about the imperial examination. If I lose my reputation, I will go to Hangzhou and work in the shipyard. Watch over your mother and
Isn't your sister also enjoying herself?" Lin Youde sighed softly.
Lin Jue said with a smile: "That's right. My virtuous cousin, don't you know that my talents will be useful? No matter what I do, as long as my family is healthy and my heart is clear, that's enough."
Lin Youde nodded and said: "Master Lin Jue said yes. Let's go back."
Everyone got on the bus one after another. Before getting on the bus, Lin Jue patted Lin Hu on the shoulder and gave him a thumbs up and said with a smile: "You are making great progress. Little Tiger has grown up."
Lin Hu chuckled, whipped his horse, and drove away. It was night, and there was a banquet in the Zaoyuan. After the performance, Xie Yingying, Xie Danhong, and others who hurried back after the performance arranged a banquet for Lin Jue. Everyone drank and drank, chatting and laughing.
Enjoy the joy of reunion.
…
In the northwest of the inner city of Bianliang City, there is a lake with beautiful scenery outside the Lize Gate of Yanfu Palace. This is the Northwest Lake, one of the five largest lakes in the inner city of Bianliang City. Its area is really not small. It occupies the northwest corner of the inner city and is the palace.
The birthplace of the Dauchi River System.
Because it is located close to the west gate of Yanfu Palace, and the lake west reaches Jinshui Gate in the northwest corner of the inner city, a natural lake barrier is formed between Yanfu Palace and the inner city wall. As a large lake close to the imperial palace, this place is naturally unusual.
It is a place where people live. Although the scenery of the lake, water, smoke, willows and blue waves is beautiful, it is heavily guarded and cannot be used by people.
Around the Northwest Lake, there are lush green trees and tall mansions. This is the residence of the most powerful family in Bianliang City. But in fact, even for the ministers of the DPRK, it is not easy to have a mansion on the shore of the Northwest Lake.
Because most of the people living here are relatives of the emperor, princes, nobles, princesses and consorts, and only princes and princes are qualified to settle here.
At this moment, when the lights of thousands of houses in Bianliang City are bright, the lights are also bright in a majestic mansion located on the south bank of Northwest Lake. The mansion is full of people and servants, and it is a lively scene. This is the old palace of Guo Bing, King of Liang
.From the time he became a young man, he moved from the palace to this mansion that was rewarded by the late emperor for only one tael of silver. This was his residence until he left the capital for Hangzhou.
.
In the garden hall in the back garden, Liang Wang Guo Bing sat quietly on a big chair at the top. His face was a little gloomy, which made the atmosphere in the entire flower hall completely different from the atmosphere in the brightly lit palace. The atmosphere here was a bit depressing and...
Depressing, even a little eerie.
Guo Bing's brows were furrowed, his expression was a little angry, and his face was a little distorted. For a long time, Guo Bing had tried his best to keep himself calm and not let others see through his mood. But today, he was really angry.
very.
There are two people kneeling in front of Guo Bing, one with fluffy hair and pretty face drooped, covering his face and crying, the other with a face full of shame and frowning. One of these two people is his beloved daughter Guo Caiwei, and the other is his
Darling son Guo Kun. Not long ago, Guo Bing learned something from their mouths that made him extremely angry. The broken tea cup, the overturned slag bucket and the mess on the ground were the result of his previous anger.
Evidence of moderate fever.
"Father, please calm down. My father's health is very important. Please take care of yourself and don't get angry." Guo Kun, who was kneeling on the ground, said in a low voice.
"Should I calm down? Do you...do you still think of me as your father? Wei'er, you have disappointed your father so much that you did such an ugly thing. You have completely humiliated me. Why did I give birth to you like this?"
A daughter? How do you want me to behave in the future?" Guo Bing shouted angrily.
Guo Caiwei cried louder and her body was shaking slightly.
"Father, don't talk about my sister like that. It's all my fault. I should strengthen my protection for my sister, otherwise things like this wouldn't happen." Guo Kun whispered.
"Of course it's your fault. You actually hid it from me for so long. It was all about the Lantern Festival last year. You actually hid it from me for more than a year. You are incredible. You don't even consider me as your father anymore.
." Guo Bing cursed angrily.
"Yes, yes, it's my fault. I shouldn't have hidden this from my father. My child... I was afraid that my father would be angry when he knew about this, so..."
"Shut up. Since you chose to hide it from me, you should have dealt with the aftermath. Why did you allow that lawless boy to live to this day? Once you found out, you should have killed him and silenced him. He did such a heinous act and tarnished the dignity of my palace.
Do you still allow him to live in the world?" Guo Bing cursed angrily.
"Father... the boy wanted to kill him at that time, but... however... the boy did not expect the development of the matter. When he knew about it, he happened to be planning to exterminate the pirates. The boy thought, he would definitely
He died in the hands of pirates. So he didn't take action. Besides... besides... I couldn't hurt the girl's heart, so I hesitated..."
"Hurting her heart? After doing such a scandal, you still protect her? Do you still let her have her own way?" Guo Bing said angrily again.
Guo Kun frowned and stopped talking. The incident became darker and darker, and he couldn't explain it.
Guo Caiwei, who was crying silently on the side, slowly raised her head and said: "Dad, my daughter is unfilial and has embarrassed you. But Mr. Lin is not to blame for this."
"Then who's to blame? Blame me?" Guo Bing shouted.
Guo Caiwei cried and said: "It's not my father's fault, it's my daughter's misfortune. If Sima Qingshan hadn't been malicious and tricked her into going to enjoy the snow, how could her daughter be... drugged by him? Mr. Lin is actually...
In order to... to save me. He was almost killed by Sima Qingshan that day. He broke away from the rope and killed Sima Qingshan and Dongfang Weiming before saving his daughter's life. When... something like that happened, it was my daughter.
The daughter who begged him is not shameless, she is actually...poisoned, and if he doesn't save her, she will die."
Guo Bingbing snorted and said nothing, regretting endlessly in his heart. He should not have kept Sima Qingshan and Dongfang Weiming as guests in the mansion. To be honest, his own move to keep Sima Qingshan was the root cause of all this.
The reason is to blame, but actually you have to blame yourself.
"Dad, don't blame brother. I was the one who forced him not to kill him. Mr. Lin is innocent. He...he didn't do anything to feel sorry for dad and brother. Apart from this incident
, he has done so many great things for my family. He was also a victim in this matter. But later...then things became out of control. He learned that his daughter was pregnant and suffered for him, so he decided to date her.
My daughter admitted that she liked him before, but he always avoided her before. He knew that you would not agree to let your daughter marry him."
"Huh! He is self-aware. So what if he did something for us? Can a toad just want to eat the swan meat? He has brought shame to my palace, and he must pay the price for it. I don't care what he did for us.
Things. Rules are rules. No wonder when I was in Hangzhou, I always felt that you two were a little weird in front of me. It turns out that you have done such scandalous things in private." Guo Bingbing said.
Guo Caiwei shook her head and said: "Dad, you are punishing your daughter. It is your daughter who has done something to embarrass her father. She is willing to bear the consequences. But please let her go. If your father feels that your daughter has embarrassed you, Wei'er is willing to die.
, to wash away the stigma brought to dad."
"It's Lin Jue who deserves to die, not you. After he dies, no one will know about this matter. Don't worry, no one will know about this matter. Don't wrong yourself. You know the purpose of dad's trip to Beijing.
What." Guo Bing's tone slowed down a lot. He still loved Guo Caiwei in his heart, and he didn't want to force Guo Caiwei to death.
"Dad, you don't understand. Do you know why my daughter confessed this matter to you today? It's because she learned the purpose of dad's coming to Beijing this time. Daddy came to Beijing this time to arrange a marriage for me. I will never
I can't hide it anymore, so I chose to confess to my father. In this life, my daughter will not marry anyone except Mr. Lin. Dad, my daughter is unfilial. My daughter has not asked you for anything, but I hope my father can agree to this.
Me." Guo Caiwei said softly.
"Unbridled! How can you be allowed to make the decision on your own when it comes to marriage matters, your parents' orders, and the words of a matchmaker? What's wrong with the Yang family? Yang Jun is the current privy envoy, and his second son Yang Xiong is now the deputy commander of the Forbidden Army Guards Ma Junsi.
You are a talented person at a young age and have a bright future. Our marriage with the Yang family is a perfect match. Yang Xiong was interested in you after seeing you at the palace banquet, so he asked his father to propose marriage. Yang Jun originally kept a distance from us.
, he is not familiar with my palace. It is rare that we can become in-laws this time. Do you know how important this matter is to us? By becoming in-laws with Yang Jun, we can overwhelm Lu Zhongtian and never have to look at Lu Zhongtian again. You understand.
Huh?" Guo Bing said in a deep voice.
"I understand, my daughter understands everything. Doesn't her father just want to use her daughter in exchange for benefits? My daughter originally had no idea about this. She was born in a royal family, and she should contribute to our Prince Liang's family. But now my daughter has someone in her heart.
, the daughter cannot agree. As the saying goes, a loyal minister will not serve two masters, and a good girl will not serve two husbands. The matter has come to this, and the daughter cannot let Mr. Lin down. I hope my father will forgive me." Guo Caiwei shook her head in a low voice and firmly.
"You bastard, what a bastard. You actually ignored the future of our palace for that kid? I'm going to be pissed off by you. If you are so stubborn, then Lin Jue must die. I will have him cut into pieces."
, throw it into the mountains to feed the dogs." Guo Bing cursed angrily.
