Chapter 209 Sister Selection
"Sister, don't think too much about it. Xiao Fei has left for the Liao and Song border to find his brother. He must bring us good news." Yuwei persuaded Yunxuan.
"As long as he is safe!"
Yunxuan's eyes are full of tears at this time. Since Man Xiu disappeared and Lin Yuqing was sent to the Liao and Song border, the whole Lin family has been dead. Thinking of the days when the whole family was reunited before, it was like a different world. Don't say that the Spring Festival is approaching. For this family, a piece of peace of news must be better than any kind of celebration.
"Good news, young lady!" The maid Huier ran over with a smile on her face.
"What's the matter?" Yunxuan really can't think of anything else in this family that deserves the maid to be so happy. Could it be that Yuqing is coming back?
"Young lady, I just wrote to you that the emperor will hold a banquet during the Spring Festival this year and allow officials above the third grade to take their families there. Master Du said that he will also let you go."
"Oh?" Yunxuan was stunned and then looked at Yuwei. Yuwei nod to Yunxuan, and Yunxuan immediately met. This is the father creating an opportunity for himself. It depends on whether Yuqing can come back safely. As long as Sheng Shang is happy, nod, and Yu Qing wants to come back, isn't that a word?
However, how can we make the Holy Dragon happy?
In a blink of an eye, it was the Spring Festival, and the palace banquet was held. Yunxuan and Xueer went to the palace with their father and Mrs. Yu.
"What about Jinlan? How can I not see her?" On the way, Yunxuan saw that everyone was silent and couldn't help finding a different topic.
"I didn't let her come. Now, the emperor is very angry about Ye Zilian's affairs. Her appearance now can only make the emperor more unhappy, not to mention pleading for mercy.
"Lord Naye..."
"Don't worry, I went to see Lord Bao from Kaifeng Mansion. He also feels very suspicious about Ye Zilian's acceptance of bribes and is under investigation. Presumably, it won't be long before the case is overturned for Ye Zilian. The emperor cherished Ye Zilian's talent, but this time Longyan was furious, but he did not severely punish him, which must be the reason. When Ye Zilian's grievances are cleared, coupled with the power of the Imperial Concubine and the Ye family, the emperor must have used him again.
"What if you are killed again?" Xue'er, who had never spoken, interrupted at this time.
"To be killed again? Cher, you can't talk nonsense!"
"Dad has been an official for so many years, haven't you seen it clearly? Or, Dad is pretending to be confused!"
"How can you talk to your father so freely?"
"I didn't talk nonsense at all. Everyone knows that Ye Zilian was investigating Zhou Ke. That's why he was dismissed. But this warning has no effect on Ye Zilian, and he is still investigating. Therefore, Lord Zhou couldn't sit still, for fear that Ye Zilian, known as a genius who solved the case, would turn everything before upside down. At this time, the best way was to kill people. However, I don't know if Ye Zilian is now in Shaanxi and digging his old ground? If it were me, I would definitely do it!"
"Xue! I'm about to enter the palace!" Lord Du's face was full of panic.
"Dad, I won't be stupid enough to say these words after entering the palace. Even Ye Zilian dared to move, and Brother Lin was sent to the Liao and Song border with just one sentence. If there is not enough evidence, I won't say anything.
Yunxuan and Xueer both looked at Mrs. Heyu at the same time and said, "Since the Empress Dowager loves you, go and choose two."
Yunxuan used to choose the smallest jade pendant from many jewelry. Almost at the same time, Xue'er also picked an emerald jewelry from it, but Xueer picked a pair of jewelry.
"Ha ha, I'm afraid that others won't say that you two are sisters, and choose the same emerald pendant for the meeting gift. How can you only pick such a small one and say it out, but it's stingy.
"The Empress Dowager's words are serious. Yunxuan and Xue'er deeply felt the kindness of the Empress Dowager's mother, and their gratitude could not be expressed. How dare they say that the Empress Dowager's mother was right?
"Ha ha, this girl. Bring it here and see what you have chosen?"
Yunxuan and Xue'er walked to the Empress Dowager's side and held the newly selected emerald pendant with both hands. The Empress Dowager looked at Xue'er first, "Yo, how old is Xue'er this year?"
"The Empress Dowager, Cher is 19 years old this year."
"But do you have a mother-in-law?"
"Return to the mother, Xue'er hasn't married yet."
"Oh? I heard that Lord Du loves his daughter very much. Isn't he reluctant to marry his last daughter and keep you until now?
"Mother laughed, Dad, I can't wait for me to get married there quickly so as not to bother him at home."
"Haha! So which young master do you like? If necessary, I can make a matchmaker for you.
Xue'er was shocked when she heard the words, but she immediately said with a smile, "Mother! The Empress made fun of Xue'er again. Cher doesn't want to get married for the time being. Cher just wants to bother her father at home.
"Hehe, isn't it? So how can this ignorant girl choose a pair of dragon and phoenixes?
"Mother!"
Cher's face immediately turned red and hid behind Mrs. Heyu.
"Look at this girl, tell the mother the central thing. It's still the mother's ability to blush the most disobedient Xue'er. It seems that she really has to take Xueer to the palace from time to time in the future and listen to the mother's teachings. Mrs. Yu also echoed with a smile.
"Mother!"
When the Empress Dowager saw this scene, she laughed happily.
"Yes, what did my sister choose?" Cher led the topic to the pendant in Yunxuan's hand.
Following her words, the Empress Dowager looked over. Well, it's really God's will. Yunxuan is gentle and elegant, and the selected pendant has such a profound meaning.
"Oh? What is this? The emerald is crystal clear, and there are several round patterns on it. It looks noble, elegant and beautiful!"
"This is called emerald green beans. Generally, it means good luck, longevity and happiness, family harmony, peace and peace, and career prosperity. Yunxuan chose this, which is really just right.
Hearing this, Yunxuan seemed to be thoughtful. She held the emerald green beans tightly and forcibly turned her head to one side.
"Yunxuan, what's wrong?" Yunxuan's small action did not escape the eyes of the Empress Dowager, even asked.
"It's nothing to go back to the Empress Dowager."
"What's wrong with your eyes? Why is it a little red?
"Oh, maybe it's in the sand just now, so my eyes are a little uncomfortable."
Sand? In the Empress Dowager's room, how can sand enter her eyes? Yunxuan never lies, and this time the lie is also unconvinced.
"It's actually nothing to go back to the Empress Dowager. However, shortly after the wedding, the husband was sent to the border of Liao and Song dynasties. Before the young couple warmed up, the two places were separated. I just didn't mean to pick this emerald green bean. Hearing the Empress Dowager's words have so many meanings, I must have felt it. That's why I thought of my husband. Mrs. Yu played a round and reported everything she wanted to say to the Empress Dowager.
"Oh? Is there such a thing? Yunxuan, is that so?"
"Yes, the Empress Dowager forgive me. Yunxuan, Yunxuan just accidentally thought of her husband, so she couldn't help herself. Please forgive me.
"Is this also human's normal, and what's the sin? By the way, which son did you marry?
"The Empress Dowager, my husband is the eldest son of the Kaifeng Lin family, Lin Yuqing. It was originally my father's personal guard, and he was a sixth grade official.
"So it is. I said, who is so blessed to get our Yunxuan through the door.
"The Empress Dowager praised it."
"Bear by the way, your husband, Lin Yuqing, is now in any position on the border of Liao and Song Dynasty?"
"I'm worried about the Empress Dowager. He is just an ordinary soldier now."
"What?" The Empress Dowager looked stunned. How did a six-grade guard become an ordinary soldier when she arrived at the Liao and Song border!
