childhood sweetheart love

Because the last time he entered the palace to pay respects to Empress Lin was when he had just returned from the northwest, so today Xue Qi planned to enter the palace to visit the empress, and Lin Sheng naturally accompanied him.Xue Qi was very satisfied with the fact that Lin Sheng would accompany him wherever he went.

Taikun Palace was the residence of the empresses of all dynasties, and Lin Sheng's aunt, Xue Qi's adoptive mother, Empress Lin, naturally also lived here.The bright yellow glazed tiles and vermilion palace walls are very magnificent.

"Both of you, you've been back for a few days now. I'm afraid you've had enough fun outside, so you're thinking of me now." Queen Lin sat at the head dignifiedly and asked jokingly.

Xue Qi didn't speak, but Lin Sheng opened his mouth, "How could it be, didn't Yu Yu and I go to the palace to see you when we first came back? I saw you earlier than I saw my mother."

"You're the one who talks a lot." Empress Lin smiled and nodded Lin Sheng's head, then turned to Xue Qi and said, "The reason why you came to the palace this time is because you know the news that the emperor gave Lao Qi a marriage."

Xue Lin and the two nodded, but did not speak.

"Hmph, the emperor originally wanted to marry Lao Ba and Wang Shangshu's daughter. It was a good idea. If this marriage is married, Xue Zhen will belong to the household department and the military department alone. But Lao Ba No matter what, they quarreled and quarreled, and the marriage finally fell on Lao Qi. Lao Qi took advantage of it, and only hoped that the two brothers would not leave because of Lao Qi's help. You have a good heart." Empress Lin curled her lips slightly, her words were full of sarcasm, anyone could tell that her last words were not sincere, but wished that the seventh and eighth children would leave their hearts.

"Arguing again and again?" Xue Qi was puzzled. When I met Xue Zhen yesterday, I didn't think he was losing his temper.

"Yeah, after the emperor heard the news of your victory, he started to want to marry the old eighth Zhang Luo. After choosing and choosing, he felt that the daughter of Wang Shangshu's family was the most suitable. I told Concubine Hua, what a coincidence. When Xue Zhen found out, it started to quarrel. In the end, the emperor couldn't bear the fact that the eighth child didn't eat or drink, so let's forget about the marriage. But these all happened in private, and people outside even the emperor wanted to eat. I don’t even know about the fact that the girl from the Wang family was given to Lao Ba.” The queen paused, and then continued, “It’s just that Concubine Hua knows what’s wrong, so she promised the girl from the Wang family to Lao Qi, and she really believes in Concubine Xi so much. Won't you have two hearts with Lao Qi?"

Lin Sheng didn't think much about it, he was just curious. According to this, the emperor just skipped the seventh and wanted to propose a kiss to the eighth, which is too unreasonable.Whatever he thought, he asked.

"Isn't he afraid that Xue Qi's military achievements will be too dazzling? He just wants to help Xue Zhen, but who would think that Xue Zhen is a dou who can't help him." Speaking of this, Empress Lin smiled a lot. "Concubine Hua, who is so smart, gave birth to such a pure and good son, hey!" However, it is precisely because of her good son that Xue Qi has the opportunity.

Xue Qi thought about it, and knew why Xue Zhen didn't want to get married. Since he, an outsider, could see the matter between Xue Zhen and Xue Li, why couldn't Concubine Hua, who is Xue Zhen's mother, not see it?I'm afraid he deliberately wanted to break Xue Zhen's mind.What would happen if one day the Queen or Madam Lin found out about the matter between him and Lin Sheng?

"Qi'er, which department do you think the emperor will put you in?" Empress Lin picked up a handkerchief and wiped the corner of her mouth where nothing was there.

"My son doesn't know."

"Then tell me about the DPRK-China forms that you know these days."

Before he returned to Shengjing, Zhuo Fugui had already inquired about the situation in the court.

"The second prince is in the Ministry of Households, the third prince is in the Ministry of Rites, the seventh prince is in the Ministry of Punishment, the eighth prince is in the Ministry of War, the tenth prince and the eleventh prince are still young, and they have just entered the imperial court not long ago, and the father has not yet asked them to work in any fixed place. .”

The queen nodded, thinking that although Xue Qi was in the northwest, he still cared about the affairs of the court.

"Then where do you think the emperor will let you go?" The question came back again.

"It's really hard to say."

In fact, Xue Qi is also not sure. Now there are still the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Industry without the prince to enter. Naturally, the Ministry of Officials is good, but if you go to the Ministry of Industry, it will be...

"Did you meet your father when you came here?"

"When the son entered the palace, he went to greet his father first."

"It's almost time for the reward to come down. Your father is getting old and his health is not good. If you have nothing to do, go to your father's place and walk around."

Xue Qi nodded yes.

The two stayed with the queen for a while, and then left to return to the mansion.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

King Qiong's Mansion.

"The queen mother said that the reward will come down soon. After this reward is over, you may have to leave." Xue Qi sat by the bed, gently stroking Lin Sheng's face.

Lin Sheng held Xue Qi's hand, put it on his lips and kissed it, and said nothing quietly.

"If you leave this time, I'm afraid you won't be able to come back in a few years." Even if you come back, you won't stay in Beijing for long.

"Then I will ask the emperor for instructions to stay in Beijing."

"Fool, you were born to be a general, how could you be trapped in Beijing." Although Xue Qi said so, he was still very happy in his heart, he was very happy that Lin Sheng could sacrifice himself for his own sake.

"Since you are leaving again, we must cherish the rest of the days." Said, Xue Qi pressed on Lin Sheng.

"Yufei, what are you doing? It's still daytime." Lin Sheng said with some embarrassment.

"What's the matter during the day? Who said you can't do this kind of thing during the day, besides, I'm in good health, last time you promised to let me be on top this time, you want to break your promise?" Then, regardless of Lin Sheng's words He objected, pulled down the bed curtain, and covered Lin Sheng himself.

After a long meal, both of them were sweating profusely. Beads of sweat ran across Xue Qi's forehead, which looked very attractive, and Lin Sheng couldn't help licking it.

"What are you doing? It's so dirty." Xue Qi wanted to push Lin Sheng away, but failed. Lin Sheng licked where he shouldn't have licked, and the tent was full of spring.

-------------------------------------------------- -----

One day at a time, Xue and Lin lived their happy and happy little days. They lived in King Qiong's Mansion for two days and returned to Lin's Mansion for one day. I didn't think much about it.

Half a month passed like this, Xue Lin and the two of them also went to the morning court on this day, and all the rewards came down.

The ranks of ordinary soldiers in the frontier have been raised by two ranks. Lin Jiong was promoted to General Yunhui, while Lin Sheng was promoted to General Zhongwu. You must know that Lin Sheng is only 18 years old, and his future is boundless.

After rewarding all the soldiers, only Xue Qi was left.Xue Qi also had an official position in the army before, and he was a prince with real power, so Emperor Jingran really thought about and thought about Xue Qi's reward, and spent a lot of thought.

Money or something, Xue Qi has not been given any rewards over the years. If he has made such great military achievements and is only rewarded with some money, it will be too unreasonable.But if he wanted Xue Qi to join the official department, he was a little bit reluctant.

"Old Jiu, tell me what you want?" Emperor Jing Ran asked jokingly.

"My father, my son has nothing to ask for."

Emperor Jing Ran was very happy to get the answer he wanted, and said, "There is a nice piece of land in the outskirts of Beijing, and a hot spring was dug out a few days ago, so I will reward you there."

"All the sons and ministers thank the father." Although this is not what he wants.

"After you stay in Beijing, go..."

"My son will report to my father."

Emperor Jing Ran was interrupted before he finished speaking. He should have been very dissatisfied at first, but he couldn't get angry when he saw that his favorite Xiaoba did it.

"It's not big or small. Before the father finished speaking, you interrupted him." The words were words of blame, but with the tone and expression, no matter how you look at it, it looks like a loving father dealing with his disobedient little boy. son.

Xue Zhen didn't plead guilty, but said, "I think it's good for the ninth brother to go to the official department to practice."

As soon as these words were said, the faces of everyone in the hall changed, they didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the eighth prince's gourd.

Emperor Jing Ran looked at Xue Zhen puzzledly, his eyes were a little stern.But Xue Zhen was not afraid of him, and then said, "Originally, the ninth brother brought troops back from the northwest, and this military department should be the most suitable for him. But Erchen has been used to staying in the military department for a while, and he is reluctant to leave this place, so I can only let the ninth brother go to the official department. The ninth brother should not blame the elder brother for occupying the seat and not giving up to Nian." The last sentence was said to Xue Qi.

Xue Qi smiled and handed over to Xue Zhen, but didn't say anything, after all, it was the emperor who made the final decision.

Since his most beloved Lao Ba said so, and what he said was well-founded, Emperor Jing Ran couldn't say anything, so he had to agree.

"As for Lin Jiong and Lin Sheng, you two brothers haven't been home for a long time. Now that the Northwest is stable, you should stay at home with Mrs. Lin. She misses you very much. Besides, the Qiang captives are coming soon. You have become familiar with them these few years, so stay here and arrange their whereabouts together." After a pause, Fu said again, "Lao Jiu, you go with them. Well, if you have nothing to do, go down."

————————————————————————

After the court, Xue Qi rushed to catch up with Xue Zhen, "Thank you myna just now."

Xue Zhen smiled, "Even if I don't tell you, my father will arrange a good place for you."

However, both of them knew that this was impossible. A prince with prestige in the army was actually very dangerous.

To be honest, Xue Qi didn't know why Xue Zhen did this. Logically speaking, the two were considered competitors, so why did Xue Zhen help him?

"Ninth brother, Northwest should be fun." Xue Zhen looked into the distance and said.

"Well, although that place is a bit colder than ours, the scenery there is beautiful."

"I'd like to go and see it if I have the chance." After finishing speaking, he walked away quickly.

"Yuyu, let's go quickly too." Lin Sheng urged from the side, he was very happy that the emperor let him stay in Beijing, no matter what the emperor's purpose was, anyway, he could talk to his mother, Stay with Xue Qi for a while.
