The delicate face was now covered with a veil, but even so, Ren Xiaofan recognized her at just one glance. She was indeed the woman in the painting.
She is more vivid in person than in the painting, and more like Lin Shijiu...
The princess was not in such a hurry this time as before. Instead, she took two maids and walked elegantly towards the royal study.
Ren Xiaofan followed her and stared at her back, but what came to his mind was Lin Shijiu. It turned out that she looked like this in ancient costume...
I don't know what dynasty the palace's architectural style belongs to. It looks a bit like the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, but Ren Xiaofan is not sure. After all, he is not familiar with these ancient buildings.
Arriving at the door of the royal study, an old eunuch over fifty years old hurriedly greeted him, "Princess Yanyang Jixiang, you have come at the wrong time this time. The emperor is discussing military affairs with the general, and even old slaves are not allowed to enter...
"
Under normal circumstances, when the ministers of the court meet with the emperor, the personal eunuch will not stay outside the door. Unless they are discussing important matters and he is needed to block outsiders.
And what this old eunuch means is that you, princess, are not allowed to enter at this time.
"Military and political matters?" Princess Yanyang looked stunned at first, and then quickly asked: "Besides military and political matters, are there any other matters?"
"This... I don't know." The old eunuch shook his head.
I wonder if this dynasty also had the rule that the harem was not allowed to participate in politics. However, Princess Yanyang did not force her way in. She just stood behind a pillar and waited anxiously.
I didn’t know what this important military and political matter was. I waited from morning to afternoon, and finally the door to the imperial study room opened.
A man walked out of it and looked at the old eunuch guarding the door, "Eunuch Li, the Holy Father calls you in."
He didn't seem to see Princess Yanyang behind the pillar. After saying these words, he stood up and left.
The man has long hair shawl, a handsome face, and clear eyes. He is wearing a white robe, a jade belt around his waist, and a green jade pendant hanging around his waist. He has the temperament of a Confucian prince.
However, what attracted Ren Xiaofan was not his handsomeness and temperament, but his appearance. He was exactly the same as himself...oh no, it should be the silver-white general he had seen in the underworld.
It can be said that he is able to kill enemies in armor and on horseback, and is a handsome man in white robes and jade...
"Lin Mu!"
And just when the man was about to pass by the pillar, Princess Yanyang, who was hiding behind it, jumped out and blocked his way.
"How is it? Does Father agree with our matter?" There was expectation in her eyes, and there was also a hint of nervousness.
The man who was replaced by Lin Mu did not show any fright. He obviously already knew the person behind the pillar.
The man did not answer Princess Yanyang's question, but looked a little stiff.
And this immediately made Princess Yanyang even more anxious. She grabbed his arm as if no one else was watching and said, "Speak, do you agree with me or not?"
There were many guards and eunuchs standing next to the royal study, and they couldn't help but cast their eyes over. There was deep shock in their eyes.
A trace of struggle flashed across the man's face, but he quickly took a step back and broke free from Princess Yanyang's restraints: "Princess, please respect yourself..."
Princess Yanyang was stunned for a moment, and her two big eyes immediately turned red.
"Lin... I still have something to do in the palace, so I'll take my leave first." The man did not dare to look at Princess Yanyang's expression at this moment, even though she was still wearing a veil. After bowing and bowing, he
Leave quickly.
Princess Yanyang stood blankly in front of her
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
On the ground, the whole person seemed to have lost his soul, motionless...
It wasn't until the old eunuch came out of the imperial study and called her that she finally recovered.
"Princess Yanyang, Your Majesty has asked you to come in..."
"oh..."
Princess Yanyang took out her handkerchief and wiped her tears. After trying her best to adjust her mood, she stepped into the royal study.
In the imperial study, the emperor was sitting on a chair with a large pear wood table in front of him.
"Father..." Princess Yanyang said in a low voice after bowing.
She wanted to act normal, but she still felt a little nervous.
The emperor was quite old, and looked to be at least sixty years old. He loved this old daughter very much.
He quickly asked with concern: "What's wrong with the emperor? Tell your father what happened."
"He...he doesn't want me anymore..."
The emperor's words seemed to allow Princess Yanyang to find a way to vent her anger. Although she didn't burst into tears, she wasn't too far behind.
After hearing this, the emperor was stunned for a moment, but then his face turned green, "Who! Who doesn't want you anymore! My prince, tell the truth!"
The old emperor's beard was trembling with anger. His daughter was smart and smart. Not only did she have a stunning face, she was also good at playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting. He loved her like a treasure.
But now, seeing his baby crying so sadly, and listening to the meaning of the words, it was obvious that someone had hurt him, how could he not be angry.
"Yes...it's Lin Mu..." Princess Yanyang lay on a chair beside her and swallowed the man's name.
"Lin Mu!"
The emperor's expression changed again, but this time he didn't become angrier, but rather uncertain...
The old eunuch on the side glanced at Princess Yanyang, and then whispered a few words in the emperor's ear.
I don’t know what he said, but after the emperor heard it, his expression instantly softened.
He glanced at Princess Yanyang who was still crying, hesitated for a moment, and asked: "Your Majesty, do you like Lin Mu?"
"like..."
In front of her father, Princess Yanyang was not embarrassed and continued to swallow after saying something.
After hearing this, the old emperor did not ask, but frowned, thinking about something.
This was the royal study room, and Princess Yanyang knew she couldn't be too presumptuous. After crying for a while, her voice gradually stopped, and she sat on a chair nearby to wait.
After thinking for a long time, the old emperor said: "Let's do this. Emperor Father will grant you a marriage to Lin Mu. After he returns from the expedition, you will get married. How about it?"
The general gathers the hearts of his soldiers, and the emperor gathers the hearts of his generals. In order to make the generals in the court obediently obey him, Qi Xianer's father would reward his concubines. So Ren Xiaofan didn't find it surprising that the old emperor in front of him made this decision.
.
"real!"
Princess Yanyang was overjoyed.
The old emperor nodded with a kind look on his face, "Of course it is true. As long as the emperor likes it, of course the father will be satisfied."
"That's great. Thank you, Father. I know that Father is the best to Yan Yang..." The girl's mood changed from gloomy to sunny, and she quickly ran to the old emperor and started acting coquettishly.
"Hahaha, you girl."
The old emperor laughed, then flicked his sleeves and said, "Come and study ink. Father, I will give it to your husband."
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Decree..."
"It's the father." Princess Yanyang beamed, and immediately studied the ink extremely diligently, for fear that she would be slow and delay the old emperor's writing of the imperial edict.
The relationship between father and daughter is harmonious, and Ren Xiaofan feels warm in his heart when he looks at it.
It seems that what is shown in books and TV series is much less humane than the historical facts.
For example, now, when Princess Yanyang gets along with her father, there are so many rules written in the book... They are not just like ordinary fathers and daughters.
The imperial edict was quickly drawn up, and Princess Yanyang was satisfied and ran out of the imperial study happily.
However, after she left, the old emperor's expression suddenly became sad.
When the old eunuch saw it, he couldn't help but comfort him: "Your Majesty, please rest assured. General Lin has sent troops so many times and has never suffered a defeat. I believe it will be the same this time..."
"well..."
The old emperor sighed and put down his pen, "I hope..."
I don’t know what happened to this fantasy. It seems that I want Ren Xiaofan to see the whole process, so there is not even a little time to fast forward.
Ren Xiaofan wanted to move away from his mind and go to the mansion of General Lin who looked the same as him. But he found that he couldn't stay too far away from Princess Yanyang, as if he was bound.
Helpless, he could only wait outside the princess's palace and watch the stars and moon all night.
As for going in to see the princess changing clothes and sleeping, although he wanted to do so, he stopped himself.
He is lecherous, but he is lecherous and polite. This is the biggest difference between him and gangsters and scumbags....
One night passed in a blink of an eye, and when the court was over the next morning, the news of the marriage had reached General Lin's residence.
In addition to some content indicating meritorious service, the most useful information is the time of the wedding, which is scheduled to be after Lin Mu returns from the expedition.
Before that, Princess Yanyang's identity before leaving the palace would become the fiancée of General Bailong.
The emperor had an order, and as a minister, no one dared to disobey, so Lin Mu could only agree.
According to ancient customs, after two people get engaged, they cannot see each other before getting married.
However, rules are dead and people are alive. Lin Mu still met Princess Yanyang with the help of the palace people.
It was an evening with a full moon, and the pond in the courtyard was quiet, without even a breeze.
Princess Yanyang took off the veil on her face just to see the person she loved.
"Lin...General Lin."
The girl was a little shy. She looked at the man looking at the moon with his hands behind his back and called out softly.
The man turned around and looked at her with a pair of starry eyes, "You shouldn't be so willful..."
"What do you mean..." The girl's face froze, and the shyness on her face disappeared instantly.
The man shook his head and turned to look at the bright moon in the sky again.
"Lin Mu, what do you mean? Have you forgotten what we said?"
Seeing the man like this, the tears in Princess Yanyang's eyes couldn't help but well up again.
The bright moon, when does it exist? It’s very full today, but there’s no wine, all there is is sadness...
"Lin Mu remembers." The man's voice was a little heavy.
"Since you remember, you told me to respect myself last time..." Although the girl had tears on her face, her voice did not get louder.
