Jade Without Fragrance Chapter 124

   Chapter 124 New Years

  Lamb...a pot?

  The corner of Lin Hao's mouth twitched slightly.

  She only ate at noon—

Just as he was about to decline, he heard the little county master angrily say: "My eldest brother is too much, he knows a lot of delicious places, but he doesn't believe it and doesn't take me there. Every time he takes a friend, he doesn't know who this friend is. Who……"

  Lin Hao swallowed the words "I only ate at noon" in his mouth, and gave Qi Qiong a guilty smile: "Okay."

  Qi Qiong suddenly showed a bright smile, holding Lin Hao's hand while walking and said, "I made an appointment with my second brother to eat together at night, but I will ask the maid to talk to him later."

   "Since the county master has made an appointment with Brother Ling, why don't we go another day." Lin Hao secretly relieved.

  The mutton pot is delicious, but it's a bit boring to eat two meals in a row.

  Qi Qiong waved his hand: "It's okay, my second brother eats out every day, it's not bad for this meal."

   Qi Huan, who later received a message from the maid: "..."

   As Lin Hao expected, after the beggar who took the lead in the trouble ate the prison meal, Lin's house was clean all of a sudden. The old ones are in charge of cooking and cleaning, the young ones are literate, and the older ones will be assigned to the shop under the name of the General's Mansion to learn craftsmanship. , is more visible to the naked eye.

   For Lin Hao, life has calmed down, but in fact there is a new rumor in the capital, which is about the prince.

   It turns out that the assassination of the prince was not at all caused by the former national teacher, but the elder sister of the person who was assassinated many years ago by the prince.

  The wind started at the end of Qingping. Where did the rumors come from? Even with Jin Linwei's ability, he could not find out, but it was like a spark ignited a prairie, and it quickly spread.

   Emperor Tai'an was furious and punished Cheng Maoming, the commander of Jinlinwei, and went to the East Palace to scold the prince.

  The palace is full of dark clouds, but it can't stop the people from welcoming the new year in a good mood.

  The General's House has also started to prepare New Year's goods. This is the first New Year after Lin brought his two daughters back, so it seems to be more important than in previous years.

   There is also a special place this year. As a girl who has been engaged, the General's House received a New Year's gift from the royal family.

The    New Year's gift was personally sent by the King of Wei.

   Regardless of whether the old lady and the Lin family are satisfied with Lin Chan's future husband-in-law, when the prince comes, he will welcome him in person.

   Lin was startled when he saw King Wei.

   lost weight again! This can be seen to be clear-eyed!

   King Wei was a little uncomfortable by the Lin family, so he went into the room to drink tea and sat for a while, and then he said goodbye.

   "Your Highness, let's go after dinner." The old lady said to hold back.

   King Wei said politely: "There are still some things in the house. I will come to see you in the next year."

  It is said that the prospective son-in-law came to give the New Year's gift to stay for a meal, but the heavenly family is different from the ordinary family, so the old lady did not force it.

   As soon as King Wei left, the old lady and Mrs Lin looked at each other and said in unison, "I'm finally relieved."

   "Mother also found out that King Wei has lost weight again?" Lin Shizi asked happily.

  The old lady gave her daughter a deep look, and said weakly: "I think, as a prince, if you can personally come to give the New Year's gift, it will not be too difficult for Chan'er in the future."

  It is impossible to marry into the royal family, and it is impossible to have a couple. For a woman who is married at a high level, it is not terrible to have a concubine. What is terrible is that the husband does not respect his wife.

  With respect, there is a bottom line.

   Lin felt better after hearing this, and turned around and told his eldest daughter the good news: "Chan'er, King Wei came over today, and he lost weight again. Now he looks like an ordinary fat man..."

   Hearing her mother say a series of good things about King Wei, Lin Chan smiled shyly: "That's good."

  If you can, who doesn't want your husband to be surrounded by the wind.

  The weight of King Wei was so obvious that after this year, all officials and nobles noticed it. When the news reached the inner house, I don't know how many ladies felt sour in their hearts.

   Even though the daughter who could comfort Lin Wanqing herself was well married, King Wei himself was too conspicuous. Who would have thought that King Wei, who grew up fat and grew up, would actually lose weight!

   Shouldn't the Lin family girl have a good fortune?

   Thinking of this, many people set their sights on Lin Hao, and secretly made up their minds to go to the General's Mansion to propose marriage after the first month.

  The thinning of King Wei has aroused many noble ladies' sour feelings, and men only regard this as a new thing, and forget it.

   At this time, Baiguan Xungui hadn't found out that there was a problem with the prince's left hand.

   This matter can temporarily hide the civil and military officials, but it cannot make the prince happy. Especially when he saw the thinner King Wei, the crown prince became even more irritable.

   Of course, the Crown Prince has not yet given birth to the idea that King Wei is threatening. After all, he grew up occupying the most orthodox crown prince status, and the throne is a matter of course for him, sooner or later.

   But he was still very unhappy.

   He abolished his left hand, but the fourth younger brother became clear-eyed. At the palace banquet in the New Year, the father and the emperor looked at the fourth younger brother with a much more smile, but looked at him with a stern face.

  The prince was depressed, he walked around in the dormitory, and kicked away a golden pier with one kick.

  Jindun Gululu rolled to the feet of Emperor Tai'an who had just walked to the door. Emperor Tai'an sounded an angry voice: "Yuan'er, why are you losing your temper!"

   When the prince saw Emperor Tai'an, he secretly said that he was unlucky, and admitted his mistake with a bitter face.

   Emperor Tai'an hates that iron cannot become steel: "Yuan'er, I have said several times, don't let your emotions control you, but learn to control your emotions."

  The prince bowed his head angrily: "My son knows."

   "I know again. Know what to do, not just go crazy!" Emperor Tai'an got angry when he saw the prince like this, and walked away.

  The prince lowered his head and clenched his fists to suppress his anger.

   Father Emperor said it easily, but he was not the one who lost his hand!

   Emperor Tai'an left the East Palace and went to Ningxin Palace in annoyance.

   "I have seen the emperor." Concubine Jing respectfully saluted.

  Tian Di pulled her up and walked in.

  Ningxin Palace is filled with a faint fragrance, which is faint and pleasant.

   Emperor Tai'an took a sip from the tea cup that Concubine Jing handed over, and sighed, "I'm still relaxing here with Concubine Ai."

  Concubine Jing went around behind Emperor Tai'an and squeezed his shoulders for him: "Is the emperor in a bad mood?"

   Emperor Tai'an said angrily: "The prince looks like that—" The following words came to an abrupt end.

   Concubine Jing's movements of pinching her shoulders did not change in the slightest, and she did not ask any questions.

   Emperor Tai'an was quite satisfied with Concubine Jing's knowledge and interest, and took the initiative to say: "Since the prince was assassinated and injured, he has always lost his temper, and he is not stable at all."

   "The prince is still young."

   "How young, how many years have you been married!" Thinking of the death of the Crown Princess, Emperor Tai'an became even more annoyed.

   Concubine Jing said softly: "Xu is because there is no one around who knows the cold and the hot."

   Emperor Tai'an turned around, and Concubine La Jing sat down opposite, thinking, "Concubine Ai's words make sense."

  The prince is in his twenties, but he has no blood. When the first month of the year comes, it is time to consider choosing a prince.

   In an ordinary family, if the wife died so short time ago, she would inevitably be gossiped by others, but in the heavenly family, it was nothing. The prince's absence of heirs is not only a family matter, but also a state matter related to the inheritance of the society.
