The Times Spent in Pretense

Chapter 46 Confession

The news of the dissolution of the marriage between the King of England and the Lin family was like a gust of wind that quickly swept the entire capital.

Throughout the ages, there was a precedent for betrothal to the royal family but it was withdrawn, but most of those who were about to become concubines were found to be misbehaving before they were retired from the royal family.It is rare for a woman to be divorced by the royal family.

At one time, there were divergent opinions, but even if someone sympathized with the Lin family's money, no one said that His Majesty had done too much.Although some ministers did not like war, Hua Yingting and Wei Mingyue won the Golden Perk, and they did not take pride in their achievements. During their return to the capital, they often received rewards from His Majesty, but they never showed off. Teach a son of Huiyuan in the examination, and attracted many favors of the literary minister.

Most of the literati are sentimental. For those who don't like it, I think it's not a dirty word.But when they admire a person, they will respect him from the heart, so they are both hateful and cute.

In addition, the recent storytellers in the capital always like to tell the story of Huajiajun fighting bravely against the Jinbo thieves. In these stories, some Huajiajun were hacked by Jinpo thieves in order to protect their children.In order to protect the people from fleeing, some Hua family daughters were finally smitten with arrows.

When food was the most difficult, many Huajiajun saved their rations and gave them to the old and weak women and children in the city.

The telling of these stories caused the audience to burst into tears, and even many old ladies carrying grains of rice noodles and money bags ran to Yamen and said they would donate something to the border soldiers.

Sensitive literati were naturally inspired by these tragic and heart-warming stories, and they drew a lot of men’s tears. The heroic characters even wrote poetry for the Huajia Army on the spot, wishing that they could also throw their blood on the battlefield and sprinkle their blood on the battlefield. The people guarded the pure land.

In particular, some young scholars mentioned that the Huajiajun praised most of them, and there were few detractors.

After this incident came out, as long as civil servants and military officials had conflicts, the literati who always helped readers and civil servants spoke strangely and kept a silent attitude of non-comment and non-comment on this matter, and even had a personality impulse. The hot young scholar was dissatisfied with what Lin Qianqian said.

If generals who threw their blood on the heads of the people will end up badly, who will dare to stand up when the foreign enemy invades next time?

Don't let the hero bleed and cry!

The human heart is a subtle thing. Sometimes he will cross identity and stratum, which is surprising and moving.

Even the Hua family did not expect that, after this incident, the literati will have this attitude.

They guarded the people behind them. Not only did the people not forget, but they also threw the stones that were secretly thrown at their backs.

"This life is worth it." Hua Yingting raised a pot of wine and poured it on himself and Wei Mingyue, with the shadow of the meniscus in the air printed on the glass.

The couple raised the wine glass and touched it gently, Wei Mingyue's beautiful face smiled: "This glass of wine, respect ourselves?"

"Yes, respect for ourselves." Hua Yingting looked up and drank the glass of wine.

"That zigzag, will you still have to present it tomorrow?" Wei Mingyue held down the jug to prevent Hua Yingting from pouring a second glass. "Small wine is tender, big wine hurts, so many old injuries on your body, should not be much Drinking."

"All listen to my wife." Hua Yingting quickly released her hand holding the glass.

"Naturally you have to submit it." Hua Yingting smiled and said, "This matter is ultimately, that is, the juniors argued for two sentences, and other matters were investigated, but hurt the friendship."

Wei Mingyue nodded: "You are right, I will go into the palace with you tomorrow."

The flower glazed by Lin Wan's "halo" has lived in the days of the stars in the past few days. Shoukang Palace is up and down, nervous about her, as if a leaf on the tree hit her head, she will be injured. of.

The way for the queen mother to comfort her emotions is very simple and rude, that is, to send her beautiful clothes and beautiful jewelry, which makes Huali couldn't help but ridicule with the queen mother: "Mother queen, if you are a young man, the daughter-in-law might want to admire you. "

"It's a pity that the mourning family is not a boy, and it was not born on the same month and the same year as Liuli. Instead, they were destined to be in vain, and wasted their wishes in vain." The Queen Mother pretended to be annoyed, "This is really destiny."

The people who were waiting around couldn't help laughing because of these words, and they were full of excitement.

The prince walked into Shoukang Palace, heard the words "Junzhu", "marry", "marry", could not help but speed up the pace, entered the house and saw the masters and servants laughing together, and approached the queen mother to salute: "The emperor and grandmother are here to live Hilarious, who is going to marry and who is going to marry again?"

"Your Highness doesn't know yet, Lord Fushou wants to marry someone." Hongmian smiled and blessed the Crown Prince, "Please also ask His Highness to prepare a gift quickly."

The prince was stunned. He looked at the laughing court attendants all over the house and turned his gaze to Hualiuli. It took a long while before he heard a strange voice in his throat: "Sovereign, who is he going to marry?"

Hua Liuli felt that the prince looked strange in his eyes, and thought, it seemed that the prince had a deep affection for the deceased woman. Even the word "getting married" could change his mood so much.

"Who else?" The Queen Mother smiled and smiled, "Far from the horizon, close to your eyes."

The prince's eyes swept the crowd. In addition to the eunuch, the woman in this room was the emperor's grandmother.!

For a time, the prince heard the wind roaring, the horses were roaring, the rivers, lakes and seas were roaring, the blue sky and the white clouds were all open like him, his face couldn't help but a bright smile bloomed: "How does the emperor grandmother know... …"

"Naturally, it's a mourning house." The Queen Mother rarely saw the prince's stunned look and couldn't help laughing. "The mourning house and Liuli are talking and laughing. She said that if the mourning house is a man of her age, I'm afraid you want to mourn the family."

What did the grandmother say behind, the prince could not hear.At this moment, he only felt that the wind had stopped, the horse was dead, and the rivers, lakes, and lakes were frozen, even the sky was not blue.

His mood turned too fast, and he could not bear it.

"The emperor's grandmother and the lord of the county would really laugh and laugh." The prince sat on the chair and saw Hua Liuli's cheeks red and white, and her fingers were itchy.

It would be nice if she could hold Liuli's hand, touch her face, and stroll with her in the Royal Garden.

"The Queen Mother, the Queen Mother Lin, and Her Highness the Four Princes meet."

The Empress Dowager's smile slightly converged: "Xuan."

Among the few grandchildren, the relationship between the four princes and the queen mother is the most bleak. Although the rewards for grandchildren are usually the same, but emotionally, the queen mother is not particularly close to this grandson.

On weekdays, the four grandchildren were never willing to say a word in order to please her. It seemed that they had to come to meet the rules of the palace.

At the beginning, she intends to pull into the relationship between her grandchildren and take the initiative to find a topic to talk with her four grandchildren, but the four grandchildren have always been that kind of attitude that has not been salty and indifferent.

Now that Lin Fei asked the four princes to see her, she did not have much emotion on her face.

Hua Liuli sorted out his clothes, and saw Lin Fei and the four princes come in and stood up.

"The Lord of the Palace, please sit down." Lin Fei's voice was very nice. She entered the door and helped Hualili sit down. "You are weak, don't need to pay attention to these vain."

After holding Hualili to sit down, she stepped forward to salute the queen mother: "Concubine pleases the queen mother."

"Grandchildren have seen the emperor's grandmother, and the emperor's grandmother is Ann." The four emperors saluted.

The queen mother glanced at the faces of the four princes and greeted the two of them to sit down. "Yesterday, the provincial government sent someone to send you new tea. You taste it. If you like it, the Aijia let you take them back."

"Thank you, the emperor's grandmother." The fourth prince took a sip from the teacup and put it back into place without a word.

Hua Liuli secretly glanced at the fourth prince's face, and she really couldn't see whether the fourth prince liked it or not.At this time, the grandson should praise what the grandmother gave. It is most important to make him happy if he is good or not.

Without saying this, who knows whether he likes it or not?

"The emperor and grandmother don't tell grandchildren if you get new tea," the prince said. "Grandchildren want it too."

"You don't love this kind of tea on weekdays. If the Ai family gives it to you, it will ruin good things." The Queen Mother laughed. "You put these good things all the way, Qichen, are you saying this?"

"The emperor's grandmother is right."

Hua Liuli: "..."

The four princes were really silent to the point where all the topics ended. Such a character did not cause the queen mother to turn her face, showing that the queen mother is really a loving and good grandmother.

Fortunately, Lin Fei spoke in time to save the embarrassing atmosphere in the house: "The Queen Mother, you are the grandmother of the prince. Even if you are a grandson, it is not good to see other people’s things. different."

The Empress Dowager's face finally recovered a smile: "This also makes sense."

"The emperor's grandmother's things are naturally different." Prince said, "so you remember to ask the grandson to pack two boxes away."

Hua Liuli finally understood that among all the princes, the queen mother liked the prince the most, and it was not unreasonable.

There is a consolation between Princess Lin and the crown prince, so even if the four princes always end the topic from various angles, the conversation in the house can continue.

Lin Fei twiddled the topic, and finally talked to Hua Liuli.

Hua Liuli listened for a while, and soon understood the intention of the mother and son coming.Before, she had some unpleasant troubles with Lin Yun. As the relative and aunt of Lin Yun, Princess Lin certainly wanted to show her attitude that "All Lin Lin's remarks belonged to her and had nothing to do with their mother and son."

Lin Fei was very talkative, not only made the intention clear, but also forgot to show her closeness to Hua Liuli. By the way, she exaggerated Huajia and Huajiajun from top to bottom.

"The child Qichen has admired General Hua since he was a child, and said he wanted to be a hero like General Hua." Lin Fei glanced at her son with a smile, hoping he could say something.

"Oh." Under the stare of Lin Fei, the four princes "Oh" expressionlessly.

Hua Liuli: "..."

It was a strong feeling of worship, but it was not so obvious, she didn't see it.

Lin Fei seems to have been used to her son's behavior for a long time, and the smile on her face has not changed at all: "This child has never spoken since he was a child, and he doesn't know who he heard rumors from, saying that the general should be serious and not too serious. Be expressive, and develop this kind of trouble by accident."

Hua Liuli looked at Lin Fei in disbelief, but she didn't expect that Lin Fei was a master on this road with her eyes open for nonsense. Can all such stories be made up?

Your son's expressionless face has nothing to do with the generals?

Although the pot was large, bright and round, the generals did not want to carry it.

"Lin Fei is a person who is good at poems and books. When she tells a story, she is also very charming and fascinating." The prince said, "Lonely almost believed."

Lin Fei, whose face did not change from beginning to end, had a moment of stiffness in her smile after the prince spoke.

She looked at the prince with a smile on her face: "Your Highness laughed, where will the palace tell a story."

"Lin Fei is too humble, and I feel that the story just told is very good." The prince changed her sitting position and said leisurely: "Come on, continue to talk, I still want to listen to it for a while."

Lin Fei suddenly felt that she didn't really want to speak that way.

"Why, what's Lin Feiniang's opinion on the orphan?" The crown prince raised her eyebrows. "The orphan just wanted to hear a story, but the mother didn't even want to talk?"

For a while, Lin Fei didn't know if she should continue to speak.

Opening up is equivalent to admitting that what you have just said is a lie and is a storytelling.

If you don't speak, you have an opinion on the prince.

Why is this dog prince so annoying, what does His Majesty get used to like him?

Lin Fei embarrassedly looked at the queen mother, hoping that her old man would open the matter at this time.But when she looked over, the queen mother slept by the maiden. Although her eyelids were trembling and her posture was very stiff, she still stubbornly expressed an emotion to her-mourning sleeping, mourning what Don't even know, Ai Jia doesn't want to talk.

When it comes to partiality, the queen mother and her majesty are all professional.

"Prince wants to hear, my brother tells you." In a silence, the four princes began to speak, and his black hole's pupils swept the flowers and princes, saying: "Last winter, a hole broke in the river, a fish from The hole jumped out."

"Later?" Lin Fei said, fearing that the atmosphere would continue to cool down.

"Later it was frozen to death." The four princes took the tea and took another sip. The posture seemed to be saying that the story was over.

Lin Fei opened her mouth, regretting that she took the word.

"Papapap." Hua Liuli threw three palms. "This story is really interesting."

No longer want to make the fourth prince shut up, she will be embarrassed by this atmosphere and die.

Although it was a story told by his own son, Lin Fei still couldn't help but glance at Hua Liuli's eyes. The master of Fushou County, his brain... is there nothing wrong?

"This story tells us that even if the ice is frozen on the river, you can't go up at will. If the ice is cracked, it will be dangerous to fall." Hua Liuli said, "But fishing in the ice is indeed a part of the fishermen. Kind of fishing."

"Are there people in Qinghan Prefecture fishing in this way?" the Queen Mother asked with interest.

Lin Fei turned her head silently to see the queen mother. Didn’t she sleep well, just woke up so soon?

The queen mother refused to respond to Lin Fei's eyes.

"Yes." Hua Liuli told the Queen Mother some interesting things about winter fishing in Qinghan Prefecture. "Winter is very cold. Putting fish in the yard overnight is harder than stone. Once there was a siege of Jinpo State, he threw a stone The stone in the machine is not enough. The big frozen fish head can also be used as a stone."

"Wouldn't it not be bad if you put it on for a few days?" The queen mother imagined the scene of a stinky fish head smashing the enemy, and couldn't help but clap and smile. "The border soldiers and the people are not easy. The conditions are so difficult. I will still have fun and make life so interesting. It can be seen that the two generals have contributed a lot."

"Probably because we all know that at any time, your majesty will not make the soldiers hungry, so you have a happy mood." Hua Liuli thought about it and explained: "Your majesty is our backstage, there are backstage. People, always be willful."

Lin Fei glanced at Hua Liuli, at a young age, the skill of flattering was not small.

In the Imperial Study Room, Hua Yingting and Wei Mingyue are pleading for Lin Zhou.

"Your Majesty, one or two rumors of the juniors will not care about you at all. If you treat the soldiers better, you will know better than anyone else." Hua Yingting said, "Lin Zhou is willing to do practical things for the people. Good officer, you have suppressed his orders, but it is cheaper for him."

"I'm so mad at you, why did he cheapen him?" Emperor Changlong saw that Hua Yingting didn't put those words in his heart, and he felt a lot better. He even had interest in ridicule. "Where's the reason? You need General Wei to take you back and teach you."

Wei Mingyue shook his head: "Your Majesty, he has been doing this all these years, and he will not be able to teach well."

"Let him eat and drink at home every day, and also lead the beneficiaries given by the court. This is not cheap. What is he?" Hua Yingting said straightly, "You should let him do more for you, capable people, don't need to be white. No need to."

"Don't you ever think that Lin Zhou might be a worthy reputation?" Emperor Changlong was both happy for Hua Yingting's openness and angry for the Hua family's grievances.

The Lin family all said this to the Hua family. In order not to embarrass him, Hua Yingting came to say good things to Lin Zhou. They were all courtiers. Why are they so different?

"Whether he sells his reputation or deserves his reputation, he is a good official as long as he is doing practical things for the people." Hua Yingting said with great care. "The end will not be his relatives, what is the character of others, and the end. It doesn’t matter, this is not something your Majesty needs to consider?"

"I don't need to think about it," Emperor Changlong quickly said, "Our family has already withdrawn from his family."

"Your Majesty, your family's private affairs will not be easy to say at the end." Hua Yingting scratched his head. "Or next time you want to order the Princess for the Royal Highness next time, let Moore help you inquire first?"

Emperor Changlong knew that Hua Yingting was well-intentioned, but why did he feel that something was wrong?

"Your Majesty, you will never mean that you have bad eyes..."

Emperor Changlong waved his hand: "You don't need to explain, I know you are saying that I have a bad eye for my daughter-in-law." He asked Hua Yingting, "Your boss and wife are married?"

"Your Majesty, the two daughters-in-laws of the Mojo family are particularly good. Wu Neng mounts the enemy to kill the enemy. Wen Neng shuts the door to train the husband." Hua Yingting smiled and took out two more discounts from his arms. "Your Majesty, since you can ask When you get up, you will beg you for one thing."

"What's the matter?"

"Your Majesty Ron, both Feng Mo and his wife are Hou Ye, and they will be moved by the door. Now that the children are older, they will have a discussion with his wife and decided to make the eldest and second son a son of the world. ""Hua Yingting put the two episodes of Li Shizi in front of Emperor Changlong."

"I am accurate." Emperor Changlong agreed to come down without thinking. He couldn't help but ask, "Where is the sky, but what is your opinion?"

"Changkong is the only reader in our family." Hua Yingting smiled sullenly. "The readers are very powerful. Do they have a title, have a bowl of rice to eat, and give the title to two brothers, he also agrees."

"I don't have any opinions from my family." Emperor Changlong rested his mind. He and Hua Yingting were both princes and good friends. I really didn't want to see the children of the Hua family because of the conflict in the inheritance of the title.

The remarks made by Hua Yingting in Yushufang were recorded by officials who recorded the emperor's living, and even beautified.

As a result, Hua Yingting became a general who ignored rumors, pleaded for those who offended himself, and praised the scholars for their power.

Perhaps thousands of years later, Hua Yingting will become a military representative who respects the scholars.

Thousands of years later, no one knows, but after this incident spreads, there are countless literati boasting family generosity.Some people say that the Hua family gets along well, the two generals have a sense of governance, and there are others who praise Hua Hua's noble character.

The most important thing will be Hua Yingting, a rare and famous once-in-a-century celebrity who overthrew the prejudiced saying that "there is nothing to be a scholar", affirming their status as literati and their talents and talents. .

What kind of spirit is this?

It is a noble spirit that is fair, objective, and appreciates others.

For a time, the contradiction between Wenchen and the military attache in Chaotang actually became smaller.The civil servants no longer scolded the military officials for impulsiveness, and the military officials were embarrassed to call the civil servants powerless. The atmosphere was so good that Emperor Changlong was a little uncomfortable.

It wasn't until a general, because of the military pay, that he was cursed with Hutobu, and throwing out the vocabulary that he often heard before, let Emperor Changlong find a familiar feeling.

He knew that it would be harder for civil servants and military officers to be like brothers than sisters like concubines.

But no matter how noisy, General Hua is still different in the minds of many literati, because he has taste, style, and vision. He is a great person, a noble person, and a person worthy of admiration.

As the other party to the incident, the Lin family was a bit sad.In order not to hear those gossips, Lin Sen refused all the invitations, hiding all day in the study room to read the description of the words, Lin Yun even the door did not leave the second door, and even the meals were served by the girls. of.

Lin Zhou took this newly issued order, and her hands were shaking.

He originally thought that even if he couldn't be a Dali Siqing, he could be transferred to the household department, but he did not expect His Majesty to let him serve as the assistant to the Ministry of Industry.

Although the six ministers and Taishou are both official officials of the third grade, but the Taishou is in charge of one side of the land, and he is subject to restraint everywhere, which is really not comparable to it.

The tone is flat, but in reality it is dark.

"Husband, is there a problem with the transfer order?" Mrs. Lin saw Lin Zhou's expression a little uncomfortable, and concerned, "Please relax, since the transfer order has come down, it means that your majesty still trusts you."

Lin Zhou smiled bitterly. If it was not for the general to plead for him, he would not even get the order.

East palace.

As soon as the prince came back from Shoukang Palace, he heard that the official came to the newspaper, saying that Zhang Shuo of Dali Temple and Pei Jihuai begged to see each other.

"The people of Dali Temple, are you looking for something to do alone?" The prince sat down before the book case, "Let them come in."

After Zhang Shuo and Pei Jihuai gave the prince a gift, Pei Jihuai presented a statement of confession: "His Royal Highness, Weichen received a new confession from the prince Ava, who was captured by the Jinbo Kingdom."
