Chapter 263 Examination Prelude
Chapter 263 Examination Prelude
The queen didn't delay in the herb garden, and after seeing Daiyu, she sat down for a while and went back to the palace. Before leaving, she brought Zhao's mother into the palace together, saying that she let Zhao's mother stay in the palace during her pregnancy.
After Lin Haorui's reminder from the queen, he had already realized that he was about to face a big problem, so he invited Aojian over at night, and together with Ding Daqiang, they discussed the assessment.At this time, Hao Rui began to really envy Jia Lian for having an aide like Brother Zheng Jin by his side, and began to seriously consider whether he should hire an aide to help with his affairs.
But no matter what he thinks, this time it is definitely not going to help.He looked at Ao Jian's group sitting across from him, and said: "I invited you here to watch the fun, help me think of a test method, so that people can't see that I will let the water go, and God will win!"
Ao Jian couldn't help laughing: "God Bless, are you so exaggerated? Even if he passes the [-] tests, that guy may not necessarily lose." Lin Haorui sighed: "Isn't it because I don't know the real background of An Xiuyuan? Otherwise, let's go find out at night! "
Ao Jian said without interest: "I'm not going crazy with you. If she is found out, Miss Lin doesn't need to save her face. What a bad idea. You'd better go find out what the emperor said after the court tomorrow, or else you'll have sex with me." God bless, let's discuss it! I'm going to bed, you worry about it slowly!"
Lin Haorui stared at the figure of Ao Jian going out, but his mind was never idle for a moment.After Ao Jian went out, he turned around and said, "I think you can make use of our Hemerocallis Lake. I have seen Tianyou arrange hidden weapons before. You are good at light weight!"
Lin Haorui's eyes lit up, as if he had thought of something.But he still decided to go to the emperor's place first after the court tomorrow, and then go to torment Tianyou.Who would have thought that Emperor Hong Zhen would bring this matter up to the early court, leaving Lin Haorui speechless.
The morning of the next day was about to end.Another minister mentioned the future marriage of His Highness the Crown Prince.He also proposed to complete the wedding ceremony before the grand ceremony, but was scolded severely by Emperor Hong Zhen, saying that the time was too short to pay enough attention to it.The ministers were also very thoughtful, and it seemed that the meaning of the emperor's words had already been selected, and if there was a gossip minister, he would not be afraid to ask about it.
Emperor Hongzhen glanced at the minister, but did not answer directly, but cast his gaze on Lin Haorui standing quietly among the ministers, and asked, "Haorui, I heard that your residence is very lively recently?"
Ever since a minister mentioned this matter, Lin Haorui felt a faint sense of uneasiness, and at this time he resigned himself to his fate and stood up.Respectfully replied: "Going back to the emperor, it's a bit lively. Sister Chen is about to die, so it's a little bit too much to mention relatives!"
The ministers laughed.One directly dismantled the stage: "Commander Lin is being modest, there are a little too many people in your house, it's simply too many, it's an eye-opener for the old minister!" Lin Haorui smiled indifferently.Emperor Hong Zhen continued to ask: "I heard that you have already asked these people a test. Can you formally propose marriage to your sister only if you pass it?"
Lin Haorui nodded: "Go back to the emperor. Yes!" Emperor Hong Zhen laughed loudly: "I think this method is very good, are you sure to treat everyone equally? If my son takes the exam, will he be treated equally?"
As soon as Emperor Hong Zhen said this, the hall became lively again. A group of people looked at Lin Haorui for a while, and then at Tianyou for a while.Now even if the reaction is slow.I also know that His Highness the Crown Prince's future Crown Princess will be that Miss Lin.In fact, it is not difficult to imagine, the prince has always been on good terms with the Lin family, and is also a brother of the same school.It's just that many people think that the prince will never choose the girl from the Lin family in order to avoid suspicion.
Lin Haorui looked at Emperor Hong Zhen, and suddenly felt that he had been designed. He now felt that the emperor was definitely not like the empress said, just to respect his sister.He calmly answered Hong Zhendi's question: "Yes. Even if it is the emperor's son, I will take the same test!"
Emperor Hongzhen smiled and looked at Tianyou: "What did Tianyou say?" Tianyou stood first on the left.He took a step outside: "Go back to father, God will not let you down!" Hong Zhendi nodded, and said to Lin Haorui: "Hao Rui, you can't be merciful, the stricter the test, the better."
"Yes, I won't show mercy just because I am His Royal Highness!" Lin Haorui said loudly.Emperor Hongzhen was very relieved, looked at those ministers and said: "I know that Haorui's family is very big, so you all go to have a look on the day of the assessment, and see what does not meet your requirements when I choose this heir, and make a fuss every day It's not over. If someone can't tell the reason, don't blame me for being merciless!"
Lin Haorui stood below with a genuine expression on his face, knowing that the emperor could not simply do one thing.But let him assess Tianyou, how much can people trust.Alas, it seems that he has to be strict in order to ask questions, which is really a headache.
After the morning court, Lin Haorui didn't go to see the emperor and Tianyou as he thought before, but went straight back to the herb garden.Because the emperor had already spoken, the assessment time was set three days later, that is, September 25th.
When Lin Haorui returned to the door of the house, he found that there were a lot fewer people in front of the door today. Presumably, the news of the early dynasty had already spread like wildfire, and by the time it spread, even these people might disappear.
Sure enough, as soon as Lin Haorui entered the mansion, he saw Lin Butler and Ding Daqiang rushing up to greet him. Lin Butler said with a smile: "Master, we have all heard about it, the girl is very happy!" There is some trouble. Uncle Lin is going to inform everyone in our mansion that they are not allowed to go near Hemerocallis Lake from today. Tell all the stewards to meet me at Huaping Skyside in half an hour!"
"Yes!" Housekeeper Lin agreed, and hurried to call people.Ding Daqiang followed Haorui all the way to Huaping Tianpan, and asked curiously: "Master, our girl's blessing is not small. Before the master comes back, several families have already sent invitations, saying that they want to invite the girl to the theater." play or something."
Lin Haorui sighed: "Push them all, anyway, no one will pick anything at the moment!" Ding Daqiang responded, still full of excitement.And when they arrived at Huaping Tianpan, the stewards also heard the news, and they were all proud and extremely excited.
Lin Haorui coughed heavily, and then said: "I think everyone has heard about the girl. In three days, our family will examine His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and those who come to beg for relatives. There should be many officials watching the fun. I ask everyone We must cheer up and present the good side of our family to everyone!"
The stewards all responded loudly.All full of spirits.Lin Haorui smiled and immediately started to arrange the work: "Uncle Lin is starting to write the list now. Some close relatives have to be invited to the mansion in advance, the guest rooms must be cleaned, and everything must be available. Aunt Lin is in charge of the inner courtyard. Except for some specific people, the inner courtyard is now refusing to enter, and the girl must be taken care of. Butler Ding immediately put on defenses in case someone takes advantage of the chaos and makes trouble. The kitchen will be handed over to Master Chen. After discussing with Zhou Chuan, everything needs to be bought. something."
Lin Haorui ordered in one breath, and everyone quietly remembered what they had to do.Lin Haorui was very pleased.After arranging things here, Lin Haorui came to Yanyu Pavilion, and Daiyu was embroidering in a room alone.Bright yellow fabric, you can tell who it is embroidered at a glance.Lin Haorui didn't need to inform, so he walked in: "Is this for God's blessing?"
Daiyu was taken aback, and hurriedly hid the flower shed behind her back, and said with a shy smile, "Why is my brother here? No one was notified!" Lin Haorui sat across from Daiyu, and said softly, "The emperor has issued an order this morning, Let Tianyou come to accept my assessment in three days."
Daiyu looked at Lin Haorui with some surprise: "Three days later? So?" Lin Haorui smiled and said, "No, it will take a year to complete all the etiquette after the decree to marry. Besides, you have to prepare your dowry!"
Daiyu blushed, and called coquettishly, "Brother!" Lin Haorui smiled deeply: "It's already at this time, why are you and brother embarrassed? My sister has grown up. The marriage is actually settled like this Come down, although it's not as ideal as my brother thought, but Lai Tianyou is still a good person!"
Daiyu smiled slightly when she heard Lin Haorui's words: "My brother still wants to find me a simple family, doesn't he?" Lin Haorui nodded.Some laughed at themselves: "Sister may not know, before Tianyou's life experience was made public, I basically identified him. The family background is simple, the person is outstanding, and the mother is easy to get along with. How can I find such a perfect person. But his prince As soon as the hat was pressed down, I hesitated!"
Daiyu smiled lightly: "I've heard brother Tianyou talk about it before!"
Lin Haorui smiled and said: "I know that guy is very clear in his heart, but I know that he didn't want to admit his status as a prince. Part of the reason was because he knew I was entangled. At that time, I was very relieved and felt that even if my sister married him, there would be nothing wrong with it." Good. But sister, you have to know that once you become God Bless's wife, it means that no matter what happens to you in the future, you will have to be strong and bear it by yourself. In the future, my brother may not be able to help you very much. I want my sister to stand up. I have to face everything bravely."
Daiyu nodded heavily: "I will, brother, don't worry!" Lin Haorui gently brushed the broken hair on Daiyu's forehead, and said softly: "My sister has finally grown up, and I have finally lived up to my father's trust!"
Daiyu's tears fell from Lin Haorui's emotional words, and she murmured: "Brother, I will live for myself in the future, don't miss me anymore!" Lin Haorui wiped Daiyu's tears gently: "Silly girl, are you Brother and sister, it’s the same in this generation. Brother will always watch you happy, show your happiness to brother, so that brother will not regret today’s decision!"
Daiyu nodded heavily: "I will be happy, I will become a happy woman in this world!" Lin Haorui then smiled gratifiedly, and moved the topic away from such emotional issues: "I have already sent someone to invite Sister Feng. Sister Feng will accompany you. The house is in a mess, there will definitely be many people coming. My sister should feel wronged and stay in the Misty Rain Pavilion for the next few days. I don’t even want to go to Wisteria Pier, I want to use that piece of lake brother!”
Daiyu looked at Lin Haorui worriedly: "How do you want to take the exam?" Lin Haorui nodded Daiyu's nose, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I don't have the confidence to pass the test of Tianyou, you don't know how good he is. do you know?"
Daiyu rolled her eyes, and asked curiously, "Who takes the test?"
Lin Haorui smiled and said: "At present, there are only three people who have passed my test, one is An Xiuyuan, the other is Liu Xianglian, and the other is the prince Xia Yuan who came all the way to Dongping!"
Daiyu looked at Lin Haorui with some doubts, Lin Haorui smiled and said: "These people are familiar with brother An Xiuyuan, and they don't understand the rest. It is said that Liu Xianglian is also a child of a family, but his behavior is a bit unrestrained. Xia Yuan usually does not Going to Beijing. But according to people in the southeast area, he is also brave and resourceful. There are still some who have not sent me an answer, and they must have flinched when they heard that God Bless is coming!"
Daiyu pursed her lips slightly. She didn't really care about who would be the judge, but after hearing An Xiuyuan's name, she couldn't help being stunned.Sure enough, Brother Tianyou still mentioned such a person, I don't know if he will be angry at that time.
Thinking of Tianyou's serious face, Daiyu still couldn't help laughing.Seeing Daiyu smile, Lin Haorui gradually felt relieved.
the second day.The invitations from the Lin family were sent to several aristocratic families one after another.Mother Jia also received the post. She sighed heavily, and said to her two sons, "I knew Yu'er was a blessing. I didn't think about it, but I am so blessed!"
Jia Zheng looked at Jia Mu's expression and advised, "If mother doesn't like it, don't go." Jia Mu glared at him, "I'm Yu'er's grandmother, why don't I go? What do those people think of our mansion, what does the emperor think of our mansion? Not only I am going, you are going too, let the girls go too. If Baoyu is not feeling well, stay at home."
Jia Zheng and Jia amnesty agreed, and Jia's mother said to Jia Zheng again: "Your daughter-in-law should say that she is ill. Let people take care of her, and don't make any more trouble!" Jia Zheng said, "Yes, mother, don't worry!" At that time, Mrs. Wang had been confined for many days.I don't know why it seems to be possessed, sometimes the spirit is extremely low, and sometimes it is extremely hyperactive.Jia Zheng visited the imperial physician twice but failed, so he had to claim that he was ill and could not see guests.Of course, the same is true for Concubine Xiande in the palace.
Everyone said that the wife had lost her mind and was insane, probably because she did too many bad things.It is strange that Baoyu has not come to visit Mrs. Wang during these days when she has been ill.Even if Mrs. Wang begged Jia Zheng to call Baoyu.Baoyu has never appeared.
Now Tanchun is in charge of all affairs in Jia's mansion, assisted by Second Sister You and Li Wan.Although Aunt Xue hasn't moved out yet.But the big things have already been packed, and they are ready to go at any time.
When people around Jiamu came to tell Baochai that she was going to Lin's residence in two days, Baochai was slightly taken aback.Aunt Xue said angrily: "Where are you going? Let's see how beautiful it is! You went back to the old lady, and you said that we will visit Pan'er in two days, so we won't go!"
Baochai was slightly in a daze, and didn't respond to what her mother said.There is only one voice in her mind, that is, Tianyou is going to marry Daiyu, why, why, why is this world so unfair.Baochai's heart was chaotic, full of unwillingness and hatred.
On the early morning of September 25, the people of Jia’s mansion set off in a mighty way. Jia’s mother took Li Wan, Yingchun, Tanchun, and Xichun; Mrs. Xing took the second sister and third sister You into the herb garden, Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng also arrived later.I saw that people in Caomu Hutong were full of voices, whether they were high-ranking officials or princes and county kings, they all flocked into the herb garden, as if they all came for this prosperous age of marriage proposal.
Unbeknownst to Jiamu and the others, Rongguo Mansion staged another farce at this time.Early in the morning, Mrs. Wang was in high spirits again, beating and scolding Caixia to ask Baoyu to come to see her, but Caixia had no choice but to cry and ran out of the yard.
Jin Chuan'er was walking with the little girl, and seeing this situation, she couldn't help comforting her, "Don't cry, your make-up is all gone. Now it's too difficult for you to serve her by yourself. How about it, you go Let me rest in the room first, I'll go and see my wife!"
Caixia hurriedly pulled her back: "What are you going to do? She beats anyone she sees, and you are still pregnant!" Jin Chuaner smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will save it!" He was clever, and got along well with Mrs. Wang, so he obediently entered Jin Chuan'er's courtyard, and soon fell asleep on the crooked table due to sleepiness.
Jin Chuan'er entered Mrs. Wang's forbidden yard and left the maids to guard the door. Then she came to Mrs. Wang's room alone.When Mrs. Wang saw that it was Jin Chuaner who came, she smiled viciously and said, "Why are you here? Don't be afraid that I will hurt you!"
Jin Chuaner laughed and said, "Madam, don't you want to see Baoyu? I'll bring him to see you!"
Mrs. Wang immediately looked outside: "Where is Baoyu, where is Baoyu?" Jin Chuaner smiled and walked to the head of the room and sat down, looking at Mrs. Wang with disdain: "Look again, isn't this here?"
Mrs. Wang didn't notice Jin Chuan'er's seat, she just looked out with all her heart.Sure enough, I saw Baoyu entering the courtyard in a red robe.It looked a little thinner than before.Mrs. Wang felt a sudden pain in her heart, and wanted to step forward and hold Baoyu's hand.But suddenly felt the world turned upside down, and just fell to the ground abruptly.But she still looked at Baoyu and cried out, "My son..."
Unexpectedly, Baoyu went straight to Jin Chuan'er as if he hadn't seen him, knelt down on the ground, took Jin Chuan'er's hand and smiled obsessively: "You called me?" Jin Chuan'er smiled charmingly: "Yes , do you see who that person is?"
Baoyu didn't even turn her head, she held Jin Chuan'er's hand and slowly touched Jin Chuan'er's thigh, and said hoarsely, "I only need you, whoever she is?"
Mrs. Wang stared at the scene in front of her in a daze, and finally spurted out a mouthful of blood, and fell to the ground.Jin Chuaner pushed Baoyu's hand away, and said in a low voice, "Go out and go find your girls!" Baoyu stood up without any objection, and walked out of Mrs. Wang's room slowly, without even looking at Mrs. Wang.
Jin Chuaner slowly walked up to Mrs. Wang, looked into her fierce eyes, and said with a light smile, "You know? This is what you and your son owe me, and I swore to repay it twice." Mrs. Wang Looking fiercely at Jin Chuan'er, Jin Chuan'er smiled and said, "You won't die, but you will never be able to move, speak, or write. But I understand very well in my heart. I want you to watch, I am How to ruin your son, ruin your family!"
