vChapter 6: Looking for Princess Jingxuanyan to attack(1/2)
After a night of spring supper, Lin Ruoxi woke up the next day with pain all over her body. Thinking of Tuobatian's crazy demands on her last night, Lin Ruoxi's cheeks were rosy, and her heart felt surging and a little angry.
At this moment, Tuoba Tian had already gone to the main hall for morning worship. After Lin Ruoxi got up, Luoxue helped her wash up, put on new clothes, had breakfast, and prepared the luggage she was going to take with her. At this time, she was dressed in bright clothes.
Wearing a yellow dragon robe, the heroic Tuobatian arrived at Fengyang Palace surrounded by palace officials.
"Queen, you had a great night last night!"
The first words Tuobatian saw Lin Ruoxi said were like this, which made Lin Ruoxi's cheeks turn slightly red, but she answered calmly.
"Fortunately, Your Majesty, don't forget our agreement!"[
"Of course I remember, let's set off immediately!"
Lin Ruoxi nodded.
So the two of them put on ordinary clothes and quietly left the Dali Palace. Before leaving, Tuobatian had already told his imperial advisor everything Gao had told him to do, because there were not many days left for the trip.
So he didn't worry too much about anything.
As the carriage was driving on the road, Lin Ruoxi folded her hands tightly, her beautiful eyes lowered and her brows slightly furrowed, as if she was deeply worried.
Tuobatian knew that this must be because she was afraid that Lin Jingxuan would not remember her after meeting Lin Jingxuan, which would make her feel even more uncomfortable.
He stretched out his hand and gently hugged Lin Ruoxi's arm, comforting him: "Ruoxi, don't worry, maybe he won't remember you, but as long as we see him alive and well, isn't that good?"
"Yes, I think so too, but I'm always afraid of something, but I can't tell what I'm afraid of!"
Tuobatian's hand gently patted her arm and said in a gentle voice: "Don't be afraid, I will always be by your side to accompany you!"
Lin Ruoxi leaned her face on Tuobatian's shoulder and nodded: "Okay!"
After traveling for two days and one night, we finally arrived at Qingyun Villa in the evening.
Lin Ruoxi and Tuoba Tian quickly got off the carriage and as soon as they walked into the courtyard of the village, they saw Master Yun dressed in green clothes.
Master Qingyun was very surprised when he saw Lin Ruoxi coming, but he did not feel that their arrival was abrupt and disturbed him. Instead, he invited Lin Ruoxi and Tuoba Tian into the hall and served them tea and snacks.
.
Lin Ruoxi asked slightly worriedly: "Master Qingyun, I came here this time to see Lin Jingxuan. I don't know how he is doing now!"
Master Qingyun took a sip of tea and sighed faintly: "Miss Ruoxi, three months since you left, he left quietly, and my stupid disciple Xiaoman couldn't accept this reality, so he
Went down the mountain to look for him."
"Going down the mountain?"
Lin Ruoxi stood up from her chair with an incredible look on her face.
She came here just to see him, to see her good brother, but he went down the mountain, which made her heart feel very empty, and it was like someone was drilling into her heart with an awl, which made her heartache.
Bleeding.
Tuobatian saw Lin Ruoxi's panicked look and hurriedly stood up to support Lin Ruoxi. Master Qingyun shook his head gently and sighed: "It's late at night. You'd better go down the mountain early tomorrow morning. We'll stay here tonight."
Let’s go to Qingyun Villa!”
Tuobatian replied respectfully: "Okay, then Master Lao Qingyun will be here!" [
"Master Qingyun, I want to stay at the place where Jingxuan lived tonight, is that okay?"
Seeing Lin Ruoxi's sentimental look, Master Qingyun nodded and led them to the place where Lin Jingxuan once stayed. After giving a few instructions, he turned and left.
Lin Ruoxi stood in Lin Jingxuan's room and saw that in his room, there were more than ten portraits of people hanging on the walls, and these portraits all showed the same woman. The woman had a delicate face and long black hair.
It pours behind you like a waterfall, with curved eyebrows made of willow leaves, and a pair of eyes as dark as a lake under the moon, which can attract all people's attention.
Such vivid portraits can only be made lifelike by those who work hard.
"Jingxuan?"
Lin Ruoxi walked to the portrait, stretched out her hand to touch the woman in the portrait, her eyes couldn't help but moisten.
She pressed her face against the portrait hanging on the wall, and caressed the woman with the same appearance as herself in the portrait with her slender fingers. Her heart trembled at this moment.
The moment Ye Hun woke up, she unconsciously recalled the good times between them.
"Fourth sister, please don't leave me, okay?"
Every time he was so afraid that she would leave him, saying the same words, Lin Ruoxi could not help but reach out her hand, touch his black hair, and said softly: "Okay, Fourth Sister is here with you
I will never leave you!"
From their acquaintance in Prime Minister Lin's Mansion, to their shared adversities in Southern Xinjiang, and their life-and-death fight against Empress Wu, Lin Ruoxi will never forget the memories they had together.
Unknowingly, tears rolled down her cheeks. Tuobatian took the handkerchief and gently wiped her tears on her cheeks.
"Okay, stop crying, my heart will break if you cry!"
Tuobatian persuaded Lin Ruoxi tenderly, but Lin Ruoxi seemed not to hear his words and kept recalling every detail of her and Lin Ruoxi's time together.
"Jingxuan, where are you? Fourth sister is here to find you, please return to fourth sister quickly!"
Tuobatian saw it in his eyes and felt pain in his heart. He stood beside the portrait with Lin Ruoxi for who knows how long, until Lin Ruoxi was tired and couldn't stand still. He helped Lin Ruoxi to the bed to rest.
In the early morning of the next day, Lin Ruoxi and Tuoba Tian said goodbye to Master Qingyun. Before leaving, she obtained Master Qingyun's permission to take away all the paintings on the wall where Lin Jingxuan once lived and put them in a delicate wooden box.
, well preserved.
After another two days and two nights of travel, they returned to the Dali Palace.
Queen Mother Xiao waited in Fengyang Palace for a long time, and finally waited for Lin Ruoxi and Tuobatian to return.
Empress Dowager Xiao had a solemn look on her face. When she saw the two of them coming back, she walked over and asked Lin Ruoxi fiercely: "Are you really willing to come back? They all say that this beauty is a disaster, and the Ai family saw it today and it turned out to be so!"
Tuoba Tian knew that Lin Ruoxi was in a bad mood. Seeing that Empress Dowager Xiao was speaking so viciously, he hurriedly persuaded her: "Mother, Ruoxi and I just went out to relax. Isn't the Dali Kingdom good? Nothing major happened.
, why are you so angry?"
Empress Dowager Xiao glared at Tuobatian: "Since you came to the throne, you have always made an early morning appearance every day, but you have not had an early morning appearance for five consecutive days. Aren't you afraid that some ministers will gossip and make random remarks, saying that you are licentious?
Your Majesty, you must know that the emperors of all dynasties were able to rule the country and bring peace to the country only when they were supported by their ministers. Don’t you even know this?”[
Lin Ruoxi clenched her fists tightly and smiled coldly. The latest chapter of Nine Beauties in the Harem.
Empress Dowager Xiao snorted coldly: "Why are you laughing? Don't you think that the emperor can govern the country and bring peace to the country?" 1s9n.
"What a great country to govern and secure! Queen Mother, don't you know? If a country wants to govern and secure, it is not the support of the ministers that can make the throne permanent and the country peaceful and the people safe, but the support of the people. There is a saying
Well, water can carry a boat and it can also overturn it. This sentence refers to the power of the people, not the power of the ministers. So what you said today, if it is spread out, let the people of Dali Kingdom know.
, what will they think of you? How will they treat the emperor? So sometimes, please don’t make excuses, so as not to cause trouble!"
Lin Ruoxi's eyes were as cold as daggers, which made Queen Mother Xiao tremble all over. She glanced at Tuobatian, but she saw Tuobatian nodded in agreement. In anger, she waved her sleeves and left.
"What a shrew, what a shrew!"
Lin Ruoxi smiled coldly, but did not refute. Instead, with Luo Xue's gentle support, she returned to the bedroom of Fengyang Palace to rest as a center forward.
Sitting on the bed, Lin Ruoxi asked Luo Xue to bring the exquisite wooden box, took out all the scrolls inside, and unfolded them one by one.
Just as she unfolded it, she saw five words written on the bottom of the scroll, "Miss Fourth Sister"!
Lin Ruoxi looked at each scroll, and the same five words were written on the bottom of each scroll. Lin Ruoxi couldn't help tears sliding down her face, and held these scrolls in her arms.
Tuobatian stood at the door of the palace, sighed softly, turned and left, and ordered his men to find Lin Jingxuan himself. If anyone can find him, he will be rewarded with a thousand taels.
Lin Ruoxi was depressed for a few days. Naturally, she didn't know what Tuoba Tian had done for her. One day when she went to the imperial garden to see the wintersweet, she heard the conversation between Queen Mother Xiao and the palace people, and then she found out about Tuoba Tian.
God has paid so much for her.
Luoxue saw Lin Ruoxi's expression slightly startled after hearing what Empress Dowager Xiao said. Luoxue said softly: "Master, it's not like the Emperor has never been to Fengyang Palace in the past few days. Every time he comes, he stands outside the palace door and looks at you holding
When those portraits cried in his arms, he frowned and stood there looking at them for a long time. He didn't leave until you fell asleep..."
Lin Ruoxi smiled lightly and said: "Luoxue, what do you want to say about this announcement?"
"Master, although Luoxue has never had a passionate relationship, Luoxue knows that since you and the emperor have been on the same boat for hundreds of years and have become a married couple, you should put down some things and, as the world says, hold hands.
Let’s grow old together!”
Luoxue's words really reminded Lin Ruoxi that there are some people and things that she should forget, and cherishing the people in front of her is what she should do most now.
Lin Ruoxi took a deep breath: "Luoxue, thank you for thinking so much about me, thank you for saying these words to me!"
"This is what a slave should do!"
"Let's go with me to see the emperor. I haven't seen the emperor for a long time!"
Lin Ruoxi's cheeks looked delicate and rosy under the red plum petals.
Seeing that Lin Ruoxi had thought about all this, Luoxue couldn't help but smile brightly: "Yes!"
Lin Ruoxi personally went to the kitchen and made a bowl of Tremella and Lotus Seed Soup, Osmanthus Cake and Sesame Cake, and then personally carried these pastries and lotus seed soup to Tuobatian's Golden Scale Palace.
Walking to the front of the palace, Lin Ruoxi saw a beautiful woman wearing blue palace clothes, wandering in front of the palace gate.
When Luoxue saw it, she couldn't help but pursed her lips and said: "Master, this is Princess Yan of Chu State. I heard from the envoys that she is here for marriage!"
Lin Ruoxi narrowed her eyes alertly and asked, "Who are you marrying?"
Luoxue sighed softly: "It's the Emperor!"
Lin Ruoxi's guess was good. The Princess Yan of Chu was wandering in front of the Golden Scale Palace. She must have been refused by Tuobatian. However, she still wanted to find a chance to enter the palace. She wanted to see Tuobatian more. It was more like getting
