Mrs. Yuan saw that when she talked about Li Lin, her face turned slightly red, and she was a bit shy like a daughter about to be married. She didn't think she was telling lies, so she felt relieved.
The Zhenguo Duke's Palace is of the same line, and the Yuan family naturally knows Li Lin's identity as the wife of the crown prince. She has been married to her husband all her life, and he has always treated her wholeheartedly. She has never thought about taking in a concubine and sleeping in the same room. She has never had to worry about this in her life. things.
The Li clan does not take concubines and has a high status, so it is naturally an excellent marriage.
Yuanshi and Su Wan talked for a while, then came out together, gave some instructions to the girls, and then left Wanyuan with them. The girls had girls' activities, and they, ladies, also had their own social interactions.
Su Wan sent someone to the theater to ask some girls if they wanted to come to Wanyuan to play, so he sat down and played leaf cards with the three girls. After a while, several girls who had gone to the theater also came. Su Wan ordered someone to bring Su Luo over to play with him.
Wanyuan was suddenly filled with the laughter and laughter of the girl’s family.
At this time, the front yard was also very lively. The guests entered the door and were divided into two. The ladies and girls went to the inner courtyard to meet the Wang family and were entertained by the ladies and girls of the house. The men went to the front yard to meet Duke Jinning. It will be entertained by the gentlemen of the house.
After the group visited Duke Jinning, they each found a place to talk. There were not many people left to chat with Duke Jinning. Counting them down, there were only a few.
It was just after noon when Li Lin came, and he was led forward to pay homage to Duke Jinning. He said a few words to him, and after leaving the door, someone led him to a courtyard.
As soon as he left, the people next to him asked Duke Jinning: "This is the young master of the Li family. He looks really good, and his attitude is neither humble nor arrogant."
"This young man is better than the average young master."
Jinning Justice said: "He is quite a good person. He has a calm personality, is humble and gentle, and knows etiquette."
Someone laughed and said: "Mr. Jinning, it seems that you are quite satisfied with this young man. It is rare to see you speak so highly of others. It seems that Mr. Li is someone who can stand out."
Jinning said, "I don't have to worry about whether he can get ahead or not. As long as he treats my granddaughter well in the future, I will be relieved."
"That's for sure. She is the legitimate daughter of Duke Jinning and the granddaughter of Duke Zhen. Now His Majesty has granted her the title of princess. The Li family will not treat her well."
High status also has its advantages. When a girl in the family gets married, her husband's family can only flatter her and not dare to bully her in the slightest.
Although Duke Ning of Jin was deeply convinced, he smiled and said nothing, turned around and talked about other things, exposing the matter.
Here, Li Lin was led to a courtyard called Luluo Garden, which is where the children of the family usually study in their free time. The courtyard is built next to the water. It is summer at this time, and the lake and lotus flowers are in full bloom. , the courtyard is full of flowers, making it an excellent place for reading.
When Li Lin came, someone was composing poems in the courtyard, which was very lively.
"Master Li, please come in."
"Good work."
When Li Lin entered the door, many people turned their attention to him. He was wearing a blue robe. He looked young, but he had a slender figure and a calm demeanor. Looking at the eighteen-year-old young man, there was something strange about him. The calmness and restraint of an eighteen-year-old man.
Su Jian went up to greet him: "It's Mr. Li who's here. It's too late to greet him from afar."
Li Lin smiled and bowed, "Master Su."
Su Jian had little contact with Li Lin and was not familiar with him. After saying a few words, he took him to find a place to sit. Then someone else came over and asked him to compose a poem. He ordered someone to serve Li Lin tea. Then he was pulled away.
Li Lin was sitting on a waterside pavilion by the window, listening to the young master not far away reciting poems, looking at the water view outside the window, his expression was peaceful, and he did not feel unhappy at all about being neglected.
In his eyes, these young men were just wrapped up in the splendor of high-end mansions, and had never gone out to see the outside world. The poems they produced were nothing more than flowers, moons, spring, and autumn, which were nothing good to read.
He originally didn't like such excitement, but today is the birthday of Duke Jinning, and there is another big banquet. He will be engaged to Su Wan, and will become his grandson-in-law in the future. It would be very rude not to come. Something happened.
He took a sip of tea, and then heard a sound of footsteps. Someone was walking this way, and from time to time they came to the edge of his table.
"But Li Jingyuan?!"
Li Lin raised his eyes and saw that the other party was several noble men in luxurious clothes, wearing gold crowns and jade crowns, bright and gorgeous clothes, folding fans in their hands, and various jade pendants written on their waists.
The power of his identity is written almost all over his body.
He glanced around and understood in his heart: "Exactly, I wonder why some of you are looking for me?!"
The leading man raised his eyebrows, and then put on an expression: "What's the matter? It's you we're looking for."
Li Lin was still holding a tea cup in his hand. He put down the tea cup after hearing this: "I don't remember, how many people have I offended?!"
"My surname is Yang, and I am Yang Qi. The wife of the Crown Prince is my biological aunt."
Li Lin raised his eyebrows slightly: "Yang family?!"
"Exactly."
Li Lin smiled: "Since we are the Yang family, I have never had any grudges with the Yang family. Why are you looking for me?!"
Yang Qi took a breath and clenched his fists instantly. Li Lin did not offend him openly, but because of Su Wan's incident, his cousin Su Fu and aunt Yang were embarrassed.
He hated Su Wan and naturally turned his anger on Li Lin.
He can't deal with Su Wan now. Firstly, he has no chance to see Su Wan in the inner courtyard. Secondly, the power behind Su Wan is too great for him to offend.
But if he couldn't afford to offend Su Wan, he could still deal with a poor person like Li Lin who had no background.
"I think you want to die!"
Li Linwei remained motionless: "Your Excellency, you are joking. I am living well, so of course I have no thoughts of seeking death."
"You!" Yang Qi wanted to make a move, but because he was in Duke Jinning's mansion, today was the birthday of Duke Jinning. If he took action, he would offend someone, so he said, "Li Jingyuan, I heard that you are also a member of the Juren family. , today is just the right time, why don’t we compare poems, do you dare to compete with me?!”
Li Lin glanced at him and said calmly: "You want to compete with me?!"
Yang Qi snorted: "What, do you dare?!"
Li Lin took a leisurely sip of tea and said in a cold voice: "It's not that I dare not, it's just that I've always been very lazy, for no reason, why should I compare poetry with you to make you vent your anger?"
"You!" Yang Qi was choked by him, and his whole body was shaking with anger, "You coward, what, do you think you will lose, and you don't even dare to compete?!"
Li Lin closed the tea lid, looked up at him, and pursed his lips slightly: "You want to compete with me, it's not impossible, but there has to be a winner. The loser takes off his clothes and jumps into the water, shouting three times I am is pig."
At this point, his tone paused slightly, "I wonder if Young Master Yang dares?!"
