The little princess smiled, turned her head and took the eyebrow pencil and continued to draw her eyebrows, saying: "Get up, we have to kowtow to our father and mother. They will go back to the palace early in the morning. We have to see them off. We will also see them off later.
I don’t know what else is going on. Dad said that yesterday was too hasty and many people didn’t know the news. The palace may have to hold a banquet for guests and friends."
After hearing this, Lin Jue hurriedly got up, picked up his clothes, and put them on. He said, "It's true, you can't lose your etiquette. And I still have a lot of things to do today. I won the first prize and I have to report to the Ministry of Civil Affairs and wait for the court.
Granted an official position. And I was supposed to attend the Qionglin Banquet given by the emperor yesterday, but I didn't go. I don't know if there will be any trouble."
The little princess nodded and said: "Yes, business matters are important. If you win the Jinshi, you will be a member of the imperial court, and you can't be gossiped about. But the emperor should know the news about you and me getting married, and I don't know if he will blame dad. Dad will enter today.
We will go to the palace to see the emperor, and we will also go to see the Queen Mother to report the matter. In a few days, we may be called into the palace to see the Queen Mother and the Emperor."
Lin Jue buttoned his clothes and frowned: "It's so troublesome."
The little princess said angrily: "Do you think you are an ordinary person? Your Majesty is my uncle, and the Queen Mother is my grandmother. Do you think you are just casual?"
Lin Jue nodded and reached for the knot under his arm for a long time but couldn't buckle it. Normally, Lu Wu was the one who dressed him, but he was clumsy for a moment. So he asked, "Where is Lu Wu? Have you been here before?"
"I got up early. I've been here for a while and went to the kitchen to make porridge and rice. I said you were drunk last night and you need to eat some millet porridge to nourish your stomach this morning." Seeing Lin Jue's embarrassed look, the little princess got up and came to help.
Lin Jue buttoned up.
Lin Jue was surprised and said: "Why are you cooking and being a cook today? She is also a bride. Don't you have a cook here?"
The little princess smiled and said: "Hey, do you think I'm abusing her? I asked my servants to do it, but she refused, saying that you are used to eating her millet porridge, and eating other people's rice porridge may not be beneficial. You say, I
What can I say?”
Lin Jue laughed and said, "There's really nothing we can do about it. Sometimes Lu Wu is stubborn and no one can persuade her. But I do have an appetite for eating the food she cooked. She's not wrong."
The couple were chatting and tidying up. Several maids came in to comb their hair, and then brought them water to wash up. Then they both went out to the corridor.
It was already dawn, and everything in the courtyard in early summer was blooming, with red flowers and green leaves, which was very pleasing to the eye. The couple left their residence and went to the west courtyard to meet the prince and princess. When they arrived at the door of Guo Bing's residence, seven or eight maids were carrying
The package was standing at the door, looking like it was about to be moved.
The two of them entered the courtyard. Guo Bing, his son and Princess Cui were sitting in the hall drinking tea and chatting. Lin Jue and Guo Caiwei both came forward to kowtow and salute.
"I've met the prince and the princess." As soon as Lin Jue said this, Guo Kun laughed and said, "Why do you still call me that?"
Lin Jue hurriedly changed his words and said: "I have met my father-in-law and mother-in-law."
Guo Bing waved his hands and said, "You can't change your mind for a while, can you? To be honest, I can't adapt to you being my son-in-law for a while."
Mrs. Cui pulled Guo Caiwei into the room to talk. Guo Kun ordered someone to bring a chair and let Lin Jue sit down.
"Lin Jue, my father, mother, and I moved back to the old palace today. You and Wei'er can live a good life, and don't bully Caiwei, or I will be rude to you." Guo Kun said in a deep voice.
Guo Bing smiled and waved his hands and said: "Kun'er, why are you talking to your brother-in-law like this? Lin Jue, I believe you will treat Wei'er well, so there's no need to say that. We will go back to the old palace later."
Lin Jue hurriedly said: "My father-in-law and mother-in-law can live here. The place is so big and can be accommodated. And I may not live here either. I want to move back to Zaoyuan with Wei'er."
Guo Bing frowned and said: "What are you talking about? How can you live in such a small house? How can you live there? Wei'er can't live in that kind of place? Besides, you are also an official now, how can you do nothing? The mansion? This mansion belongs to Wei'er, so you naturally want to live here. The place is large, stylish, and very safe. I asked Shen Tan to allocate some people to protect it, so I feel at ease. You can't live outside. Small house. Let me tell you frankly, Wei'er has a different identity and her safety must be ensured. This capital seems peaceful, so how do you know who will take risks?"
Lin Jue understood what Guo Bing meant. Indeed, he was nothing, because he was just an ordinary person. Even if he became an official, he would only be an ordinary official for the time being. But Guo Caiwei was different. She was a relative of the emperor, so for her Her safety must be taken seriously. If someone is detrimental to her, it will not only be against Guo Caiwei herself, but also the Prince Liang's Mansion and the Emperor. It is not ruled out that there are desperadoes or political opponents who may secretly target people with the status of the little princess. Take action to attack the court or coerce interests.
"What my father-in-law said is true, so we can stay here and live here." Lin Jue nodded.
"This is nonsense. Today I am going into the palace to see the Emperor and the Queen Mother. Your marriage to Wei'er was too hasty and did not get the permission of the Emperor and the Queen Mother in advance. However, this matter is not a big problem. Of course, my own daughter's marriage is I can make the decision. It’s just that it may cause displeasure to the Emperor and the Queen Mother in terms of etiquette. I’m afraid I’ll get scolded. Hey, this is all for you.” Guo Bing said.
"Father-in-law worked hard. Lin Jue is grateful and will never forget it."
"That's nothing. The worst I can do is lower my head and give them a scolding. I'm also mentally prepared. This... many relatives don't know about yesterday's wedding. I guess they will come to congratulate one after another today. There may be a few banquets to be held. , if necessary, I will ask someone to call you to meet the guests. These occasions are very important to you, and you can get to know many famous people, so you must come."
"Lin Jue knows, I will definitely be there."
Guo Bing nodded, thought for a while and said: "There is one more thing, I don't know what you think. Didn't you win the first prize? Today you are probably going to the Ministry of Personnel to report and wait for the imperial court to appoint an official position. Stay. Being in the capital is a sure thing, but it’s very particular about which yamen you go to work for. I don’t know what you are thinking. This is very important. If you enter the wrong yamen, it will be like taking the wrong road, and you will be in trouble in the future. The official career is much more difficult. You need to think carefully about this matter. If necessary... I can open up some joints for you."
Lin Jue smiled and said: "Father-in-law, I haven't thought about this matter clearly, and I don't understand much about this. I think we need to listen to my father-in-law's teachings, as well as Mr. Fang and Master Yan's teachings before we can deal with this matter." Decision. But I actually don’t care too much about which yamen I enter, as long as I can be an official safely."
Guo Bing frowned and said: "What are you talking about? What does it mean to be an official safely? Do you know how lucky you are? On one side you have me as your father-in-law, and on the other side you have Fang Zhongcheng and Lord Yan supporting you. You
It's time to show off your talents. Don't tell me anything about living a stable life. You can't lie to me. Are you that kind of person? The court won't allow you to hang around. You will have to take responsibility in the future. You can't lie to me about this.
Think carefully before speaking. Fortunately, there are still more than ten days to wait for the appointment, and there is still time for you to think about it. When you come back the day after tomorrow, you must clearly tell me your thoughts, so that I can move around for you. Remember,
You are now considered a member of my palace, so you can’t act just for yourself. Don’t forget the things you promised me yesterday, do you understand?”
Lin Jue smiled bitterly and nodded. Sure enough, the sequelae of becoming the son-in-law of Prince Liang are about to happen. Many things must be approved by Guo Bing. If you gain something, you will lose something. If you get the little princess, you must pay.
However, it is also beneficial to Guo Bing if he is willing to worry about the appointment of officials. Lin Jue said that he can be any official, but in fact, Lin Jue still hopes to have a good official position in his heart. The more power he has, the more likely he is.
The bigger the better, the higher the position the better, everyone thinks so, and Lin Jue doesn't want to pretend to be aloof. After all, many things require power to support. This is a lesson learned from Lin Bonian.
After chatting for a few more words, Princess Cui came out of the room with her little princess on her arm. There were tears on the faces of mother and daughter. It was obvious that her daughter was getting married, and Ms. Cui was reluctant to leave her. When they parted, she felt so sad again that she held her head and cried.
One game.
Guo Bing sighed: "Hey, why are you crying again? You are such a woman."
Ms. Cui said angrily: "Of course you are iron-hearted, Wei'er is the flesh and blood of me."
Guo Bing was speechless and stood up with a dry cough: "That's all, it's time for us to leave. Kun'er, you send your mother back to the palace and then to the army. I will go directly to the palace."
Guo Kun agreed. A group of people gathered around the princess and the prince and went out to the vestibule. The carriages and horses were all ready outside. Shen Tan and other guards were already standing waiting. Lin Jue and the little princess stood side by side at the door and held hands to see off the carriages and horses of the prince, princess and others.
Leave slowly.
Turning around, Lin Jue saw slight tears on the face of the little princess, so he smiled and comforted: "Don't be sad, your father and mother are not far away, you can see them at any time. If you want, you can go back at any time.
Look at them."
The little princess nodded and said: "I know, but after living with my parents and brothers for so many years, I realized at this moment that I am married and can no longer live together like before. After all, there are many things in my heart.
Feeling."
Lin Jue held her waist and walked into the house, whispering: "I understand how you feel. Don't worry, I will treat you well. From now on, you will be the mistress of my Lin family, but you must be strong-minded."
That's it. The whole family is looking at your face."
The little princess smiled sweetly, raised her wrist and pointed at a jasper bracelet and said, "Look at this bracelet, does it look good?"
Lin Jue looked intently. Under the sunlight, a jasper bracelet on the wrist of the little princess was crystal clear and as cute as a puddle of clear water. The wrist was as bright as snow and the jasper was green. The two complemented each other in the sunlight, which was very pleasing to the eye.
"This bracelet is very beautiful. How come I haven't seen you wearing it before?" Lin Jue smacked his lips.
"My mother gave it to me just now in the room. This bracelet is priceless. My mother said it is old Hetian jade. Look at the pattern inside the bracelet. It is a statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva. Just inside the jade bracelet, there are naturally formed patterns.
." The little princess pointed at the jade bracelet with her white onion-like fingers and said with a smile.
