Chapter 230 is the beginning

It seemed to hear the misdevolity in Lin Huazhi's tone. Yan Shaobai just smiled and said, "Today is the birth of the wet nurse. I specially sent a congratulatory gift." After saying that, he raised the brocade box in his hand.

Lin Huazhi looked back hesitantly. Xing'er was lowering her head and talking to the people in the carriage. After a while, Xing'er straightened up and looked at Lin Huazhi and shook her head gently.

Lin Huazhi knew what it meant and turned to look at Yan Shaobai and said, "I thank you on behalf of the wet nurse. Mr. Yan has a heart." After saying that, he reached out to take the brocade box.

Yan Shaobai's eyes darken and said quietly for a long time, "The wet nurse is still angry with me."

Lin Huazhi did not respond to him. This kind of anger will only be angry for a while at most. The most memorable thing is the wound left in the bottom of his heart. Even if it is healed, there are traces left there. With a slight touch, it hurts his heart.

Not angry, just won't forgive.

Lin Huazhi squeezed out a smile on her face: "With my care, the wet nurse is in good shape. Don't worry, Mr. Yan."

Yan Shaobai was silent for a moment, sighed gently, looked at Lin Huazhi carefully for a while, and then asked in a low voice, "Huazhi, how are you doing?"

Lin Huazhi nodded: "It's good." In fact, she thought to herself that Yan Shaobai came today not only to celebrate the nanny's birthday, but also to see her or ask her a word.

Yan Shaobai saw that Lin Huazhi didn't want to talk deeply, and his face became darker and darker. Finally, he said, "Don't blame you didn't have time to greet Cui's house that day."

Lin Huazhi smiled and didn't say anything. If Yan Shaobai greets her, something big will happen.

Looking up at the carriage in front of Lin's house, Yan Shaobai reluctantly squeezed out a smile on his face, nodded slightly, and then turned away. It was not until his back disappeared at the end of the alley that Lin Huazhi turned around and slowly walked to the carriage.

As soon as she approached, Zhang Ziqing couldn't help asking her, "Huazhi, what did that man say to you?"

"He is here to give gifts." She looked down at the brocade box in her hand.

Zhang Ziqing frowned and looked disbelieving: "Will Yan Shaobai have such a good heart?"

Lin Huazhi saw that Zhang Ziqing's face was disgusted. It seemed that Zhang Ziqing didn't like Yan Shaobai at all. She stretched out her hand and gently pinched Zhang Ziqing's hand and smiled, "Let's go. It's too late to catch up with the good scenery." After saying this, he ignored Zhang Ziqing's muttering and got into the carriage with the brocade box in his arms.

In the carriage, the wet nurse quickly asked as soon as she saw her, "What is that man doing here?"

Lin Huazhi stuffed the brocade box into the wet nurse's hand and said, "Here's a gift for you."

The wet nurse frowned and looked at the brocade box in her hand with a look of disgust. Although Lin didn't know that the wet nurse was entangled with Yan Shaobai, she saw that the wet nurse didn't look good on her face and quickly said, "This box is very beautiful. I don't know what's in it. Sister, open it quickly."

The wet nurse lowered her head and thought for a long time before reaching out to open it. In the brocade box is a fist-sized golden peach, which looks particularly expensive on red satin.

Lin couldn't help sighing, "How much gold does this need?"

Lin Huazhi was also surprised. She never thought that Yan Shaobai would give such a valuable gift. Lin Huazhi asked, "Is it solid?"

The wet nurse took Jin Shoutao in her hand from the brocade box and said gloomically, "It's quite heavy, but he has the intention."

It can be clearly seen that the wet nurse is unhappy. Lin Huazhi didn't dare to talk too much. I'm afraid this golden peach is worth hundreds of taels of silver. Yan Shaobai is really generous.

The wet nurse threw the golden peach into the box at will, vigorously closed the brocade box, and put it aside at will, which was obviously not loved.

Lin Huazhi couldn't help smiling. The wet nurse's action was very childish. Lin stared at her and soared at the angry wet nurse. Lin Huazhi was understanding and hugged the wet nurse and said with a smile, "Nanny, today is your birthday. Don't be angry. If you don't like that peach, you must like my butterfly. After saying that, like a trick, he took out a slender brocade box from his sleeve and opened it. Inside was a beautifully made butterfly goldpin.

Lin clapped his hands and said, "This golden pin is so beautiful. Take it with you and let me have a look." Without waiting for the wet nurse to refuse, Lin took the golden bee and helped her take it.

"Ah, it's so beautiful, so beautiful. Now if the wet nurse takes to the street with me, she won't say that she is my sister, and she will definitely recognize her as my sister. Lin Huazhi said exaggeratedly, "Oh, I'm old."

After such a joke, the nurse's mood gradually improved. She smiled and reached out and gently twisted Lin Huazhi's face, raised her hand and touched the golden hairpin, and said nothing more.

There is a natural lake called South Lake in the southeast of the capital. In summer, it is full of lotus flowers. Although it is late autumn, there are still a few lotus flowers in some places with thick back shade and grass. The boat rented by Zhang Ziqing was a two-story flower boat. The upper floor was available for rest, and the lower floor was wide and large. Zhang Ziqing also specially invited musicians and kabuki. When the boat sailed to the middle of the lake, Yiyi began to sing, and the family rarely enjoyed this autumn afternoon.

Maybe I didn't sleep well last night. Lin Huazhi listened to the wet nurse for a while and then found an excuse to rest on the second floor. She just lay down and Chunbai touched it in.

She didn't get up and leaned on the soft couch. Seeing that Chunbai seemed to have something to say, she asked, "What's wrong?"

Chunbai sat on the opposite side and asked directly, "What is Yan Shaobai doing here?"

"I know the wet nurse's birthday today, so I came here to give a gift." Seeing Chunbai frowning and looking confused, Lin Huazhi asked, "What, is there anything wrong?"

Chunbai nodded, thought for a while, and said, "Last night, someone from the Cui family went to Sun's house."

What a coincidence? Lin Huazhi frowned slightly and asked, "Is it a maid or a squid?"

Chunbai doesn't understand: "Is there any difference?"

"In common sense, if it is a maid, it will only be sent by Cui Ting. If it's a stingy, it's hard to say."

"It's a small shop." Chunbai said, "Do you think Cui Yuan sent it?"

"It's hard to say. Yesterday, I went to see Cui Yuan. It was difficult to keep what he said to Sun Zhengming. Of course, it may also be that Cui Yuan did it on purpose. Lin Huazhi said unslowly.

Chunbai thought carefully: "Sun Zhengming is not a fool. He is a businessman. Compared with the two, he will naturally choose the Zhang family. Cui Yuan is not a good person. Sun Zhengming can't understand the danger of seeking skin with a tiger.

Lin Huazhi laughed and said, "You can see it clearly. Yes, I think so too. At this jukenum, Sun Zhengming will not make a mess for some small profits. The person who went to the Sun family yesterday should be sent by Cui Yuan.

Chunbai said with hatred, "The surname of Cui is really an asshole. It's obviously aimed at us."

Lin Huazhi comforted Chunbai: "Don't think so. In fact, Cui Yuan did that, but I was relieved. Think about it, if Yan Shaobai's cloth is good, Cui Yuan doesn't need to do these small actions. I'm afraid that Yan Shaobai can't come up with anything good, so Cui Yuan can't do this.

Chunbai nodded quickly: "Yes, I feel better when you say that. But... aren't you afraid of Cui Yuan's plan? For example, in order to paralyze us, let us be careless?

"No." Lin Huazhi shook his head, "Cui Yuan is now the weaving department. How many people are staring at him secretly? If he is a little careless, he can't sit in the position of the weaving department. In fact, no matter what the final result of this silk production conference is, Cui Yuan will not suffer losses."

"Since he won't suffer losses, why does Cui Yuan still want to make Yan Shaobai come to power?"

Yes, why? How should Lin Huazhi say to Chunbai? Cui Yuan is a little similar to her. She and Cui Yuan firmly believe that only what she holds in her hand really belongs to her, so Cui Yuan spares no effort to help Yan Shaobai.

Lin Huazhi smiled, then turned her head to look at the bright lake light outside the window and whispered, "It's rare good weather, don't think about those annoying things."

Chunbai looked into the distance with her. I don't know how long it took. Chunbai suddenly whispered, "I don't know how Lin Yuyang is doing at this time?"

......

At this time, in the Chongqing Palace, Lin Yuyang was standing and talking with the prince, next to the prince Taifu and several court ministers.

Cui Yuan stood in an eyeless corner, and his eyes fell on Lin Yuyang's body. After looking left and right for a long time, Cui Yuanxin said that Lin Yuyang was not bad-looking and somewhat similar to his sister. Thinking of Lin Huazhi, Cui Yuan faintly felt that there was a fire burning in his heart.

Li Zhiming just sent away a subordinate official. In a blink of an eye, he saw Cui Yuan standing on the side and hurried over.

"Lord Cui."

"Lord Li."

After seeing him in a good way, Li Zhiming followed Cui Yuan's eyes and naturally saw Lin Yuyang, who was talking to the prince.

Li Zhiming looked at it for a while and couldn't help snorting coldly: "This year's palace test is a little strange, and I don't know what your majesty thinks. He didn't receive these young people at the court meeting, but sent them all to Chongqing Palace to let us officials talk with us. Isn't this young people's advice?"

Cui Yuan smiled and said, "Your Majesty's thoughts are you and I can guess? Although this year's palace test is a little out of place, isn't it obvious who will go up and who will go down?

Li Zhiming was stunned, and then he agreed and said in a low voice, "You mean the Lin family?"

"No matter how smart and talented Lin Yuyang is, if it hadn't been internally determined, there would have been no need for the prince to make friends with a new subject test in front of the Wenwu of the Manchu Dynasty on such an occasion. He clearly expressed his position."

Li Zhiming couldn't help sighing and said hatefully, "What's good about the Lin children? It's just a country boy with no background.

Cui Yuan laughed again, but this time he didn't say anything.

Lin Yuyang is a country boy, but this boy has a good life. There are Lord Meng and the prince in the Zhang family. Coupled with the smart sister, I'm afraid Lin Yuyang's career will get higher and higher.

Set your mind. Cui Yuan said, "Lin Yuyang is in the limelight now. Don't do it for the time being."

Li Zhiming is actually a smart person. Without Cui Yuan's special order, he will not ask for trouble at this juncture to see that the prince and Lin Yuyang are so good friends.

After thinking about it, Li Zhiming still couldn't help asking, "Lord Cui, look at today's palace test, is your majesty already intending to cultivate power for the prince?"

Cui Yuan did not answer. Li Zhiming's speculation is probably the idea of the people in Chongqing Palace, but I don't know how many people can understand it. He didn't say a word - today all this is not "already", but the beginning.

He took another look at Lin Yuyang and remembered the rumors he heard yesterday. Cui Yuan thought maybe he should go to see Cui Guifei. At this time, he must be able to see Princess Ruolian.
