Marrying Gold and Jade

He was named crown prince at the age of ten and has been in the Eastern Palace for seventeen years, but he has only one crown princess.

Whenever her mother mentioned the matter of taking a concubine, the Crown Princess would say on the surface, "I'll listen to mother," but secretly she would use all kinds of means to force those candidates to withdraw.

He turned a blind eye to this and didn't take it seriously.

However, he didn't expect that since he was unwilling to marry the daughter of the Lin family, this plot would eventually fall upon him.

"Leave far away."

Having seen many beautiful women, he was not interested in the woman in front of him.

What's more, she stayed at the fifth brother's house yesterday and will stay at the seventh brother's house tomorrow. If she also gets infected with her, it doesn't seem like she is taking in a new woman, but rather, she is gaining another lover.

Lin Yu raised his head anxiously, only to see the prince close his eyes and turn away resolutely.

He had no interest in her and even hated her, so Lin Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

But he immediately realized that things were not that simple. As long as the palace door was opened from the outside and the two men were caught inside with their clothes in disarray, what was not there would become what was there.

Once the reputation of "affair" spreads, she will be the concubine!

Lin Yu's kneeling body collapsed and he sat directly on the ground.

Even though the incense had gone out, she was covered in ashes, feeling somewhat weak and powerless. But she still managed to get up and banged on the sealed window frame again and again.

As far as the prince was concerned, even if he was being plotted against, marrying him would have both advantages and disadvantages.

But Lin Yu knew that it was all over for him.

The delicate skin on his hands was scratched in several places, but the window in front of him remained motionless. Lin Yu turned around weakly, and suddenly, the firelight was reflected in his amber pupils.

There were no sharp blades in the room, even the vases had been removed, but someone kindly lit a candle for her.

outside the temple.

The Crown Princess stared coldly at the locked palace door, not knowing how much time had passed.

She had already instructed the eunuch beside her to open the door after two incense sticks, but she couldn't help but think about the situation of the two people inside.

There is not even a concubine in the East Palace.

She had personally blocked one woman after another from entering the Eastern Palace. She had monopolized the glory for so many years, but in the end, she had to divide it up with her own hands.

But her grandfather, who was the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue and had been in the officialdom for forty years, was not only guilty of embezzling military funds, but he was also caught by someone...

Closing her eyes and shaking her head, she asked the people around her, "How long has it been?"

"Replying to the Crown Princess, it has just passed an incense stick."

The hall was lit with incense to add to the fun. She had secretly lit it when she was in love with the prince, and now, she lit it for him and another woman.

"Then wait a little longer."

If we rush in now, we might run into something ugly.

Suddenly, a cold north wind blew past, and a voice suddenly came from outside the tightly closed palace gate:

"There's a fire! There's a fire in Zhaoyang Palace!"

Zhaoyang Palace, isn’t that the palace in front of you?

Without waiting for the Crown Princess to react, the eunuch beside her immediately unlocked the door and ran out of the palace. After going around to the back to check, he hurried over and said, "Crown Princess, the north side of Zhaoyang Palace is on fire!"

In the darkness of the night, a cloud of inconspicuous smoke climbed up the glazed-tile palace.

A flash of panic flashed across the woman's eyes, and she immediately said, "Open the palace door!"

The clanging sound of the iron locks continued, and she stepped forward to urge: "Hurry up, what are you doing?"

The young eunuch was being hurried to the point of being at a loss, the crown prince of Daxing was trapped in the palace, and the lock was just locked by him himself.

If anything happens to the prince, I'm afraid my head will be in danger.

"Open, open..."

The Crown Princess reached out and pushed the door open.

The palace door, which should have been wide open, remained motionless.

"What's going on!" She wasn't just nervous or something, she just felt her nose filled with thick smoke, choking her and making it hard for her to breathe.

The young eunuch also tried it and found that he really couldn't push it.

He knelt hurriedly and said, "I'm afraid, I'm afraid it's tied from the inside."

The Crown Princess was unsteady on her feet and took a step back, almost falling off the jade steps in front of the palace.

She really didn't expect that Lin Yu would be so courageous.

Do you want to die together with the crown prince of Daxing?

"Break the door! Quick!"

It's over, it's over.

Once the door is knocked open today, it will be difficult to perform this play.

……

"This way!"

The palace was deserted, as most people rushed to Zhaoyang Palace to put out the fire.

Lin Yu was dragged and ran very far before he was sure that it was really Lin Ji.

Just as she was hesitating whether to take the risk and burn the palace with candlesticks, a familiar voice suddenly rang out outside the window that could not be broken no matter how hard she tried.

It was a voice of "Ayu?", but Lin Yu thought he was hallucinating.

The man in front of him turned around and looked behind him, and it was indeed that familiar handsome face.

"Take a break."

It is a narrow alley between two palaces, with a water tank in front, where I guess some lotus flowers are grown in the summer.

Lin Yu followed the others in and panted against the wall, "Prince, the prince..."

Still in the temple.

In order to delay time, Lin Ji asked her to lock the palace door.

However, Lin Ji seemed not to have heard at all. He opened his arms and held the person tightly in his arms.

"Don't worry about him." His usually calm and steady voice seemed too anxious, and his constantly tightening arms showed that he was out of control at the moment.

What prince? He is not as important as his A Yu.

Master Shen helped him out, but Lin Ji's heart had already left the table with Lin Yu.

He made up an excuse to come out and quietly followed the queen and her entourage, and saw Lin Yu enter the palace.

Those people gathered on the south side of the palace, knocking on the windows facing north. He guessed that it was Lin Yu asking for help.

Everything went smoothly afterwards. Unlike Lin Yu's hesitation, Lin Ji directly set fire to the north side of Zhaoyang Palace.

If it were in the past, for example, when he first stepped into the palace trembling with fear to take part in the palace examination, and was asked if he dared to set fire to the palace, Lin Ji would definitely think that he was crazy.

But today, he really went crazy.

Crazy without hesitation.

Lin Yu was strangled and felt pain. Her body was pressed tightly against the man's chest and she could feel the slight vibration. Lin Ji laughed softly in her ear.

"elder brother……"

The moonlight was bright and clear, finally illuminating the thick smoke rising from the palace in the distance.

Lin Yu was squeezed with others in a dim and narrow alley. He was not anxious at all when he heard the palace servants running to put out the fire. It seemed that as long as Lin Ji was there, in his arms, he would feel very safe and at ease.

"Brother." She called out again and hugged him back, also using all her strength.

Lin Ji specially changed to her favorite snow pear sandalwood today. Unlike the bitter scent she usually uses, it is very sweet, with a hint of pear sweetness.

"I'm here."

The man finally responded, loosening his grip a little, taking off his cloak and covering the girl's undergarment.

While tying the knot for her, he said, "It's cold, put on your clothes."

Lin Yu thought it was okay at first, but when he heard this, his eyes suddenly felt sore and he couldn't help but throw himself into the man's arms.

"elder brother……"

Lin Ji stroked the girl's back to comfort her, and accidentally heard the words he wanted to hear the most.

Lin Yu said: "I miss you so much, and I miss home so much."
