Chapter 1206 Lin Changfeng's Promise
Not to mention how miserable Prince An Ji was, the Qin Mansion had just sent Prince An Ji away, and the head of the Qin family came back. After hearing Qin Zixu's report, the head of the Qin family was unexpectedly calm, but if he could ignore the faint coldness in his gentle eyes, the head of the Qin family did not get too entangled in this matter, but instead turned his eyes to Mr. Xiange. Mr. Xiange was still calm as usual, but let Lin Changfeng next to him sweat a cold sweat. After a long time, he heard the head of the Qin family say: "Mr. Xiange, I don't know if I have time to have a cup of tea with me."
When the father-in-law invites you to each other in the future, the young master of Xian Ge naturally cannot say that he has no time, "natural."
The head of the Qin family nodded and said to Qin Zixu that you would handle the rest of the matter and then took Mr. Xiange away. Now most of the matters in the Qin family are handled by Qin Zixu, so Qin Zixu naturally would not find it difficult. He respectfully said that he was watching his father leave.
Seeing the two figures disappearing at the door, Young Master Changfeng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. His father was not very reliable, and Lin Changfeng had always been bored. However, he was a little worried about the particularly reliable elders like the head of the Qin family. Seeing him like this, Qin Zixu raised his eyebrows with a smile and said, "Brother Lin, you see my father is like this. If you see Xie Hou..." His father was somewhat secular. Xie Hou was really a scholarly family and was born in a master. Even if he didn't deliberately make up his words and deeds, he was very noble and elegant.
Lin Changfeng rolled his eyes unhappily. Can this be the same? Xie Hou has so many kind elders. How can he compare with your fox father?
Master Qin was speechless: Mr. Changfeng's vision of people needs to be improved.
"Brother." In the back hall, Qin Xi and Xie Peihuan and Xue Xiaoxiao walked out. Qin Zixu smiled and looked at his sister with a good look and said, "Xi'er wasn't scared, right?" Qin Xi pursed her lips and smiled faintly, "What a big deal, I'm not so scared. Besides, Peihuan and Xiaoxiao are with me."
Qin Zixu nodded and bowed to thank the two of them.
Xie Peihuan and Xue Xiaoxiao quickly avoided aside, "Young Master Qin is so serious."
Lin Changfeng had known that there was someone in the back hall, but he didn't expect that Xie Peihuan was also here for a while and was a little embarrassed. Xie Peihuan was generous and nodded at him with a smile, "Young Master Changfeng."
Young Master Changfeng touched his forehead and quickly returned the gift, "Ms. Xie."
Xue Xiaoxiao looked at this and that, and couldn't help but burst out laughing. Qin Xi blinked, "Xiaoxiao, why are you laughing?" Xue Xiaoxiao covered her mouth and hid behind Qin Xi and whispered: "I don't know why, but I think Young Master Changfeng and Sister Peihuan are acting like they are acting."
“…”
Xie Peihuan glared at Xue Xiaoxiao helplessly. He failed to seize the time to tease Xue Xiaoxiao, which was a big loss.
Qin Zixu also knew about Lin Changfeng's affairs, and smiled and said to the three girls: "We have something to do, so you can go back first." Qin Xi nodded, and pulled Xie Peihuan with one smile and pulled Xue Xiaoxiao out with the other.
In the hall, Lin Changfeng looked at Xie Peihuan's leaving back reluctantly. Qin Zixu couldn't help but say, "Brother Changfeng, since you are happy with Miss Xie, you just come to propose marriage directly. How can you be as arrogant as Mr. Changfeng like this? "
Lin Changfeng sat down and rolled his eyes at him, "If Mr. Xiange comes to propose marriage directly today, would you agree?"
Qin Zixu said cleanly and neatly: "Of course I won't agree."
Lin Changfeng gave him a look of "So, I didn't come to the door". Qin Zixu smiled and said, "Actually... you and Miss Xie San are considered to be of equality. The Xie family has not yet expressed their opinions, besides Miss Xie San's attitude, there are also reasons for the Lin family." Lin Changfeng said unhappily: "I have nothing to do with the Lin family for a long time."
Qin Zixu shook his head and smiled, "Flesh love, as the saying goes, the bones are still connected to the tendons when they are broken. If you are not in Jinling in the future, it would be fine. Jinling City is such a big place, do you think it can be clearly explained? Not to mention, although the Lin family and the Xie family are not from the same place, they belong to the ten major families of Jinling. Even if the main family has no connection, there are many connections between the side branches. How can it be so easy to distinguish them?"
Lin Changfeng's smile on his face slightly lowered his expression, and his expression became less joking and more solemn.
Qin Zixu said seriously: "Although the head of the Lin family is a little confused about family affairs, he is still smart in major affairs. But he is old and has not recovered until the last time he got sick in the Zhengwang Mansion."
Lin Changfeng narrowed his eyes slightly, "Who is the Lin family hooking up with?"
Qin Zixu smiled lightly and gave him a tacit look.
Young Master Changfeng was furious, "Does the Lin family raise a group of pigs?"
Qin Zixu smiled faintly and said, "You don't have to be so angry. If the Lin family is a pig, then wouldn't many people in the court be pigs?" Lin Changfeng snorted, obviously not obeying Qin Zixu's rebuttal for the Lin family. Qin Zixu was not anxious and said, "Who can tell the changes in the situation in the court clearly? If it were seven or eight years ago, who would have believed that the people who own the country now are His Majesty? So... No matter what happens, it is possible. You and I naturally think that His Royal Highness the King of Chu is unparalleled, but how many of the last winners in ancient times are the best ones? The Lin family and those in the court are not stupid, nor are they unable to see the truth. Instead, they all think that as long as they have a try, they still have a chance to turn the tables. What's more, everything is not decided yet. Even if it is really dusty, there are not a few people who don't give up and want to turn the tables."
Lin Changfeng leaned against the chair, rolled his eyes and asked, "Can it be that old man who came to find the head of Qin to talk nonsense?"
Qin Zixu smiled and shook his head and said, "That's not." The head of the Lin family was so envious and jealous of the Qin family. How could he have the nerve to nag about his worries and embarrassment with the head of the Qin family?
"But I think it's a pity that the Lin family will be defeated by them. Originally, it should be yours?" Qin Zixu was a young man from the aristocratic family after all. Even though his vision is higher than that of ordinary people and his ideas are more open-minded than ordinary people, some things are still deeply rooted, such as inheritance by the legitimate son. So Qin Zixu did not understand Lin Changfeng's stubbornness very much. It originally belonged to him, so why don't you? If you want to get out, it should be the Lin family's ones, right?
Lin Changfeng looked at him thoughtfully and didn't say anything for a long time. Qin Zixu touched his nose and said, "Don't look at me like this. We have grown up together since childhood. Will I harm you?"
Lin Changfeng raised his eyebrows and said nothing. When he was young and ignorant, he played together several times and even grew up together? Then I wonder how many childhood sweethearts Mr. Qin has.
Qin Zixu sighed and shrugged, "Okay, I'm a little selfish. Since we are all in this position, naturally, the less resistance, the better, and the more help, the better."
Lin Changfeng knew it, and he said when Qin Zixu was so kind. Despite this, he still sincerely reminded him, "You'd better not think too much, otherwise even if Your Majesty doesn't deal with you, Wei Junmo will not let you go." Qin Zixu was a little surprised and shook his head with some amusement, "You think too much, I have a sense of responsibility." The superiors' thoughts can be broken up even if he can't guess 100% of them, right? Now, if you are trying to form a clique at this time, you are seeking death. But it's always impossible to make a reservation in advance. Or on the other hand, although the Qin and Xie families have already surrendered like His Majesty, the foundation of the aristocratic families cannot be changed at once. It would be better for the Lin family to share the pressure than to be played by those fools in the Lin family at once.
Lin Changfeng looked at him and then felt relieved, "It's good that you understand. As for the Lin family, I will consider it."
Qin Zixu smiled, "You'd better consider it quickly. I heard that Lin Chang'an and Lin Changyun are getting close to the Zhu family these days."
Lin Changfeng's eyes flashed slightly, "I understand."
It was a little late, and Xie Peihuan and Xue Xiaoxiao came out of the Qin family before saying goodbye to each other and took the people to their direction. After a few steps in the carriage, a figure suddenly rushed into the carriage, which scared Xie Peihuan so much that the little girl next to Xie Peihuan almost screamed. Xie Peihuan raised his hand to cover her mouth, and the person who came in was relieved and said helplessly: "It's me."
The person driving outside also stopped quickly, "Miss..."
"It's okay, let's go." Xie Peihuan ordered lightly, then looked at Lin Changfeng and raised his eyebrows and said, "I heard that Mr. Changfeng is free and easy, but I didn't expect that he was so careless?"
The girl who was let go also glared at Lin Changfeng hatefully and did not speak any further. As Xie Peihuan's close-fitting girl, she naturally knew that this young master Changfeng was interested in her own lady. But it was too rude to run into the carriage halfway through like this!
Lin Changfeng shrugged and smiled helplessly, "Sorry, have you scared?"
Xie Peihuan shook his head and looked at him, "Young Master Changfeng is wrong?"
Lin Changfeng looked at her with a serious look and said, "I want to ask Xie Hou for a marriage, but I wonder what the third lady wants?"
Xie Peihuan was stunned, his face turned red. Unexpectedly, Lin Changfeng was so direct. These days, Lin Changfeng often ran to the Xie family, and from time to time, she would naturally know that she would not know. The seventh brother was willing to deliver things for him proved that seventh brother was a little optimistic about him. However, Xie Peihuan really couldn't figure out what Lin Changfeng valued him. Although he had met Lin Changfeng a few times in his memory, he didn't communicate much. The only point was that he was in the plum garden that day, but it was still ordinary.
Xie Peihuan's marriage has been delayed for a long time, but many things will be delayed for a long time. One is to seek medical treatment in a hurry, and as long as there is something similar, they will rush to marry. The other is that they have been delayed at all levels, so there is no need to worry. Xie Peihuan is obviously the latter.
However, when Lin Changfeng asked in person solemnly, Xie Peihuan could not have been perfunctory to him. After thinking for a while, he said, "I need some time to think about it."
Lin Changfeng was delighted, "How long does it take?" As long as there is no hope for it in person, isn't it?
Xie Peihuan thought for a while and said, "After the Birthday Day?"
Lin Changfeng nodded, "Okay, so I'll wait for the third lady to be good news. I'm sorry to disturb you, I'll leave first." Lin Changfeng got up and wanted to go out, but paused and turned around and said seriously: "Although I dare not boast about the third lady better than Wei Junmo, if I could be lucky enough to be favored by the third lady, Lin Changfeng would definitely be wholehearted and unparalleled." After saying that, he didn't look at Xie Peihuan's face and flew out of the carriage. It happened that the carriage turned around here and turned into another street. On the empty street, only Lin Changfeng stood under the eaves and watched the carriage leave.
In the carriage, the girl said in surprise: "It is said that Mr. Changfeng is unruly, but he didn't expect it to be..." Who doesn't know that His Highness and the Princess of Chu have deep love? Lin Changfeng is very sincere in making such a promise.
Xie Peihuan's face turned slightly red, and a faint smile flashed in his eyes, "Okay, stop talking."
The girl said, "Miss, Mr. Changfeng is actually pretty good. Mrs. and Mrs. Qi said so..."
"I know." Xie Peihuan whispered.
"Lin family and Zhu family?"
In the study of the King of Chu Mansion, Nangong Mo raised his head in surprise and looked at Lin Changfeng sitting on the side. Lin Changfeng's face was not very good either, and said in a deep voice: "I was joking about Qin Zixu before. I went to check it myself and found out that Lin Changyun had just obtained the position of a doctor in the Ministry of Rites two days ago. It was the help of the people under King Zheng."
"What about the conditions?" Nangong Mo raised his eyebrows, "You can't marry the eldest son of the Zhu family just because Miss Lin's sixth family married?"
Lin Changfeng snorted, "The Zhu family naturally does not have that great ability. The eldest son of the Zhu family is still working as a free job. The foundation of the Lin family is better than that of the Zhu family. Lin Changyun secretly embezzled the silver from the public and dealt with several Lin family industries. There are at least about 200,000 taels of silver in total. What do you think he used for?"
Nangong Mo understood, and supported the armrest of the chair with one elbow while thinking, "The Lin family has a great influence in Jinling. If we really help King Zheng, it is difficult to guarantee that the other families will not be shaken. However, I remember that the head of the Lin family doesn't seem to be so mean?" The head of the Lin family was not stupid either. It was because Wei Junmo was just the nephew of King Yan and had nothing to do with the throne. But now, Wei Junmo has the advantage in any aspect, and Lin Changfeng is the son. Even if the Lin family cannot surrender to the King of Chu, neutrality is enough to protect themselves.
Lin Changfeng lowered his eyes and said lightly: "The old man is still sick and can't get up."
"This is interesting." Nangong Mo smiled, raised his eyebrows and looked at Nangong Mo and asked, "Changfeng, what do you think?"
Lin Changfeng lowered his eyes and remained silent.
Nangong Mo sighed and said, "If you really can't let go, go back. If you really don't want to get involved with them, take your wife's dowry back and break it up with the Lin family."
Lin Changfeng frowned, "Miss Mo and Qin Zixu have the same opinion?" The Lin family is about to finish.
Nangong Mo said: "Qianwei is afraid that he can't hold back these days and wants to reach out to Enke. If something happens... Your Majesty will naturally be reluctant to do anything to his son. You have to find a few suitable punching bags and scapegoats, right?" Lin Changfeng said: "The Lin family is not capable yet, right?" You must have the ability to be a punching bag. The Jinling family was suppressed by the late emperor. Xiao Qianye got up a little while in power. However, Xiao Qianye's reign was too short, and they had not had time to touch the place with high power.
Nangong Mo smiled and said, "How many civil officials in the court really have nothing to do with these families? What's more, if Lin Changyun jumps up and down too much... Changfeng, the emperor sometimes is unreasonable." Who cares whether you really did something, who cares whether you are the culprit? If you don't like you, it's the bastard you instigated my son to do bad things! It's no negotiation to kill you!
Lin Changfeng nodded and said in a deep voice: "I understand."
Nangong Mo looked at him and sighed: "But if you really return to the Lin family, you are afraid you won't be able to stay in Jinling in another two years. The same is true for Zixu."
Lin Changfeng smiled and said, "I understand, this has been agreed long ago. It's time to go out to experience it in a few years, and Xie Qi wants to go." If he returns to the Lin family, it means that the Qin family, Xie family, and Lin family are all standing on the side of the King of Chu. It's okay for a short time, but it's hard to say what the emperor and the court officials will think after a long time. It's better for the three of them to go out. On the one hand, they are still young and it's time to experience it. On the other hand, they can also divert the attention of outsiders and distance between the three major families and the King of Chu Mansion.
Seeing that he was like this, Nangong Mo couldn't help but smile, "Jun Mo is lucky to have friends like you."
If others have friends with the status of King Chu, they are afraid they can't seize the opportunity to climb up.
