After Lin Weixi and King Yan shouted those words, they pushed away and ran towards the backyard. After returning to her house, her emotions slowly calmed down.
Lin Weixi didn’t know why she suddenly broke out. Maybe her previous life and the heavenly book had been pressing her firmly during this period. After Li Da’s incident last night, Lin Weixi’s backlog of emotions suddenly broke out, or it was just because it was Yan who said this. king. Others said that she could fight with reason, but she was King Yan.
Lin Weixi didn't light up the light, so he sat in the room for a while, and it was getting dark and he couldn't even see the bed cabinet. Lin Weixi was startled, when the door was knocked: "Miss Lin, are you inside?"
Lin Weixi returned to his senses, this voice had never been heard before, why was it outside her door? However, even if Lin Weixi was angry, she was convinced that King Yan would guarantee her safety, so she didn't think too much and stood up and opened the door.
Standing outside the door was a woman with a double-faced girl, about 17 or 18 years old, looking like a maid in her clothes. The visitor was obviously surprised when she saw Lin Weixi, and then she realized her rudeness, and quickly bowed her head to salute: "Miss Lin, the servant girl is Wanyue, come to take care of the girl by the order of the prince."
Lin Weixi looked at the visitor, his eyes moved slightly: "Did King Yan let you come?"
"Yes."
Lin Weixi pressed her lips tightly, wondering what King Yan meant. The unpleasant scene just now was actually caused by Lin Weixi's fault. From a secular perspective, King Yan did this for her good, and it was Lin Weixi's own ignorance. But Lin Weixi himself was still entangled in whether to go over and apologize, and King Yan sent someone over in an instant, as if he didn't pay attention to the matter of talent. King Yan didn't care, Lin Weixi should have breathed a sigh of relief, but in fact she was very complicated. This made Lin Weixi feel that she was completely irrelevant in the eyes of King Yan, as if she was just an ignorant oil bottle that needed to be placed.
Lin Weixi immediately laughed at herself. She was not King Yan originally, and King Yan was able to bring her out. She had done her best to take her out. When it came to the next town, Lin Weixi should resign consciously. King Yan still has major events in the capital, not to mention that Gu Chengyao's wedding is just around the corner. It's just a matter of talking about King Yan's mouth. How could he really not go back to attend. If Lin Weixi is interested, he shouldn't be a drag on King Yan.
So Lin Weixi didn't say anything, but just nodded, and walked away: "Come in. Where are you from?"
"The slave maid is from Shunde. I was serving the maid at the county magistrate's office. King Yan bought the slave maid from the government office and sent the slave maid to serve Miss Lin."
Lin Weixi almost sweated on his forehead: "You are the maid of the county magistrate?"
"Not close, but just do some rough work."
Butler Lin Weixi has been a steward of Wanyue for many years. He knows that this must be the main maidservant who is very much used by the host family. Considering the gap between such a small town and the capital, it may take a lot of effort to cultivate a maidservant like Wanyue. , This was mostly the final weapon prepared by the magistrate's wife for her own daughters. I didn't expect King Yan to come over directly. This is actually very rude in the wealthy compound. After all, the maid beside the young lady is basically equal to the face of the master, and the behavior of King Yan... is too domineering.
But Lin Weixi just thought about it, and would not return the person. It is very important to have a clever maid at hand. It was King Yan who came forward anyway, and Lin Weixi sat and enjoyed his success. Why not do it?
Lin Weixi asked Wan Yue a few more questions, and after knowing it, he suppressed it.
Although Lin Weixi had inherited the love of King Yan, she was still awkward. King Yan didn't care about her, and sent her a powerful maid. In this way, Lin Weixi should take the initiative to admit his mistake along the steps? After all, although King Yan looks good at talking, he is also the prince of the world with great power and the commander of the three armed forces. Not to mention the distance, only the rebellion of the Northwest Duo Huti Department the previous year. Du Huo Ti Department tried to provoke Yan. Wang, after the defeat, all men and baby boys became extinct, which was an order from King Yan himself.
Being easy-going and talking is only his appearance. Lin Weixi doesn't dare to offend such a person.
The next morning, Lin Weixi woke up to the front yard to find King Yan. Zhou Maocheng was busy going in and out. Seeing Lin Weixi, he said hello from afar: "Girl Lin, you got up so early?"
Lin Weixi was shocked. She was frightened yesterday. She rarely had a good night's sleep after she was relieved. She only woke up after sleeping three poles in the morning, but she was usually educated very strictly and would not do such improper things. Lin Weixi was hit by King Yan the only time he overslept, and everyone waited for her for a long time without saying anything, and appeared in front of King Yan shamelessly. Lin Weixi felt embarrassed at the thought of the scene that day, but Zhou Maocheng actually shouted out in front of so many people.
Lin Weixi smiled stiffly: "Uncle Zhou, you misunderstood, I got up a long time ago." Lin Weixi was afraid that Zhou Maocheng would ask again, and quickly changed the subject: "Uncle Zhou, what are you doing this?"
Zhou Mao was finally changed the subject and said, "I am on the order of the prince to go out and buy something. If you think they are noisy, just go back and stay behind."
Lin Weixi guessed that King Yan probably took advantage of the time now, and this was something he needed to purchase on the road. This is a serious matter for King Yan's team, Lin Weixi understands his identity very well, so he doesn't ask much. She glanced secretly in the direction of the study and found that there was silence.
Zhou Maocheng noticed Lin Weixi's movements and asked, "Are you looking for the prince?"
Now that he was discovered, Lin Weixi stopped covering up and admitted: "About my father, I want to ask His Royal Highness."
When Zhou Maocheng heard that it was Lin Yong's business, he sighed and looked at Lin Weixi's eyes with more pity: "The prince went out early this morning. If you have something to say to him, it is better to wait."
Lin Weixi responded, she was very self-aware, and smiled when she saw this: "I understand, thank Uncle Zhou."
Looking at Lin Weixi's expression, Zhou Maocheng almost told her what King Yan had done for going out today, but he cared about the woman's thin-skinned face. This kind of thing would damage her reputation, so he gave it up.
Lin Weixi concealed a sigh of relief when he learned that King Yan was not there, and then went back to the backyard to stay without disturbing Zhou Maocheng's work. However, she seemed to be born to worry about her life. She was taken to the princess mansion when she was ten years old, and at 12 o'clock she followed her grandmother to take care of the princess mansion's internal affairs and foreign businesses. Seeing that Lin Weixi really likes to take care of these, Princess Shoukang prepared a lot of land and shops for her dowry. When she was fourteen years old and married Gu Chengyao, the Princess gave these properties to her early and let her own Take care of the dowry.
Later, she married to the Yan Palace. Although she was a concubine, she did not have a mother-in-law or a grandmother above her. She took care of all the food, clothing, housing and transportation of the Yan Palace. Lin Weixi had long been accustomed to giving orders and managing people and affairs. Later, she became Lin Weixi, and her ears suddenly became clear, and she was still quite unaccustomed. In the past, I didn't talk about living in Aunt Lin's house if there were no conditions. Now, once I heard the movement outside, it was really difficult for Lin Weixi to sit down.
Lin Weixi couldn't help it, and took Wan Yue to the front yard to watch the excitement, and when he watched, he directed King Yan's subordinates. Zhou Maocheng brought some people back to buy things. He didn’t know whether it was good or bad, so he went to buy it alive. Lin Weixi couldn’t see it, so he had to direct one or two. Gradually, it turned out to be what Lin Weixi said, leaving these guys to listen, and then make every effort to move. thing.
These were mostly military men, taciturn, doing more things and talking less, not knowing how much better than those wicked women in the inner house, Lin Weixi commanded extremely smoothly. And Zhou Maocheng also felt that it was too easy to work only with strength, and he and a few others were silently relieved. Zhou Maocheng looked at Lin Weixi’s commanding posture and sighed again in his heart. Lin Weixi was a girl with a neat mouth and arranged housework in an orderly manner. At first glance, he looked like the Wang family. It is conceivable that no matter who married her, he would have a family business in the future. There is only a reason for getting bigger and bigger. It's a pity that his sons do not have this blessing.
Gu Huiyan returned with someone in the evening, and a cronies reported to him about the movement in the yard as early as halfway. When Gu Huiyan heard Lin Weixi point Jiangshan, he showed his skills and smiled lightly.
That's good, with a clever mind and an upright temper. No matter who she marries in the future, Gu Huiyan won't have to worry about her being murdered. After all, Lin Yong died to save Gu Huiyan. As long as he can, Gu Huiyan also wants Lin Yong's only bloodline to be trouble-free and beautiful for a lifetime.
Lin Weixi heard that King Yan was back, she struggled for a long time, and still took Wanyue to greet Gu Huiyan.
Regardless of from the perspective of the previous life or Lin Yong, Gu Huiyan is Lin Weixi's elder. As a junior, she should go to the king of Yan to ask for peace, and take advantage of the situation to review yesterday's mistakes. The king of Yan should not embarrass her as an ignorant junior in the face of the elders.
This time Lin Weixi had just walked into the study, and the guard at the door met and let her in without an announcement. Gu Huiyan was not surprised by Lin Weixi's arrival. He seemed to be busy with official duties. He pointed to a pearwood armchair and said, "Sit and wait for a while."
Lin Weixi sat down obediently, she was not convinced even in front of the British father, don't expect her to listen to the training obediently, but facing Gu Huiyan, Lin Weixi didn't know what to do, and had no temper at all.
Gu Huiyan lowered her eyes to read the letter. Lin Weixi saw that Gu Huiyan was taking it seriously. She was curious. When Gu Huiyan closed the letter, she couldn't help asking: "His Royal Highness, whose letter is this? You take it so seriously?"
The movement of Gu Huiyan's hand stopped, and he glanced at Lin Weixi, with a little interest in his heart: "How do you know I'm serious?"
"It's not easy. When I came last time, you read the letter very quickly, but this letter took almost twice as long."
Gu Huiyan smiled lightly, with a color of approval in his eyes: "You are keen on observation." Only the second time I came, I could find this subtle difference. Of course, Gu Mingda and other veterans can find it out, but compared to Lin Weixi's age and experience, this is commendable.
Suddenly praised by King Yan, Lin Weixi was flattered. Gu Huiyan also answered Lin Weixi's question very easily: "It's Zhang Jiangling."
Lin Weixi thought for a while, and was shocked: "Is it Zhang Shoufu?"
Zhang Xiaolian's ancestral home is Jiangling, so he is also called Zhang Jiangling. This is no secret in the officialdom, but what about Lin Weixi?
Gu Huiyan's face didn't have any discoloration. He put things aside, as if an uncle and elder who couldn't be more easy-going, coaxing an innocent nephew: "It's him."
Lin Weixi was frightened. She opened her eyes wide and glanced at the letter that was folded up by Gu Huiyan at random. She was a little sincere and horrified: "His Royal Highness, I just said casually, not dare to interrupt your business, you should first look back at the letter from Shoufu Right."
"What's the hurry." Gu Huiyan's casual demeanor, the world-renowned first assistant, seemed to him to be just an ordinary scholar.
Lin Weixi realized that he had missed Shoufu's autograph, and he couldn't even sit still. She was also shocked at this time. Gu Huiyan, as one of the three auxiliary ministers and the most trusted one with military power, used to think these titles sounded loud, but now she intuitively feels what this means. What's going on.
In Lin Weixi's eyes, the distant person who looked like a set board was nothing but Gu Huiyan, but a colleague who often wrote letters.
Lin Weixi was shocked and speechless. Gu Huiyan saw that she was a little frightened, so he changed the subject and started to speak: "I heard that Zhou Maocheng purchased it today. You have done a lot?"
"I don't dare to be it, but I'm just trying my tongue." When talking about this topic, Lin Weixi really relaxed a lot. "His Royal Highness, are you leaving for your journey?"
"Almost. This house was originally bought for you. I plan to wait for your lifelong event to be settled before I return to the capital. But since you are unwilling, there is no need to wait."
Lin Weixi said softly, she was a little guilty, lowered her head and said to Gu Huiyan, "Thank you, Lord."
"It's nothing, it's because I didn't think well. Even if I leave you with more self-defense, but here is too far away from the capital, after all, when I have a whip, the magistrate here will be able to rest for a while. After a long time, I am afraid I will pay It will embarrass you. You are a weak woman who can't compete with the government. Instead of making you always worried and afraid, it is better to put you where I can see."
Lin Weixi was grateful, Yan Wang is really a good person. But after hearing it, she gradually felt wrong: "King Yan, what do you mean?"
"Didn't Zhou Maocheng hand over those Luo Dais to you? The road is bumpy. I can feel at ease on the road when I am prepared now."
Lin Weixi's eyes widened in surprise, and Tankou opened slightly, "Are you planning to take me to Beijing with me?"
Gu Huiyan glanced at her strangely, and the tone should be: "This is natural. Now that you have a filial piety, you don't need to worry if you don't want to marry. You can rest assured to live in King Yan's Mansion, as long as you want to live. King Yan's Mansion shouldn't be stingy with this expense."
