Pingbaihou and Hepingcheng knew that there was something wrong with the wine Pingcheng drank that day and that he was harmed. But now that Pingfu is isolated and helpless, it is difficult to prove that he was harmed. After all, the matter has passed. After so long, he has sobered up, and the evidence is long gone.
Ping Baihou felt desolate in his heart, but he had no choice but to endure the matter and not let it go on any longer. Otherwise, he might not even have the same result in the future.
So he thought about hibernating down and living a good life in the future.
Now that they have no chance to climb up, and have been rejected by the emperor and isolated from the Imperial City family, they should teach the next generation well, hoping that they can restore the lintel of the Taira family.
However, when Su Ruo learned about this, she was greatly shocked and went crazy. She refused to go to Jinning Palace to bow her head. She just went to Sui Palace to see Su Ling and asked Su Ling to help her, but Sui The princess did not let her in.
Su Ling is also unable to protect herself now. She gave birth to a girl, and Princess Sui is pregnant again, so her treatment of her is naturally not as good as before.
Moreover, because Su Ruo's matter implicated her, Princess Sui held a grudge and was scolded, telling her to keep to herself and not see Su Ruo again.
Su Ling wanted to help her sister, but she didn't have the ability, so she had to keep to herself and live peacefully.
Su Wan didn't go to any palace banquet, she just thought it was boring. If she wanted to marry into a certain family in the imperial city, she would have to go there to please the royal family and make friends with the noble ladies.
But she was marrying Li Lin, and she would not have many interactions with these ladies in the future. This winter was so cold that it made her teeth chatter, so naturally she was too lazy to go.
The reason for not going is simple: pretending to be sick.
The ladies and ladies of the Imperial City are all proud to go to palace banquets. When they go there, they can make friends with many noble ladies to expand their connections. Therefore, even if she is faking, no one will doubt her. You just think she is unlucky. , sick on days like this.
During the New Year period, Li Lin went back to Guiyan City again. He spent the New Year at his old house in Shiqiao Village, where he paid homage to his parents. When he came back, it was already the tenth day of the Lunar New Year. .
The affairs of the Ping family have been settled, and the Ping family has closed its doors to thank guests and no longer interacts with other families in the imperial city.
And Prince Sui's Mansion and Prince Ming were fighting fiercely. Because of Li Lin's intervention, Prince Sui lost several people, and many members of the Shen family were also picked out. They lived a life full of enemies, thinking about when they would become unlucky. .
In order to make the illness more real, Su Wan kept delaying the recovery, but on the tenth day of the lunar month, Li Lin came.
"What did you say? Mr. Li is here? Come here?!"
Su Wan was surprised. She didn't expect that Li Lin would come to see her and come to Wanyuan in person. Su Xun actually let him in? Moreover, Hui Feng also knew about her pretending to be ill, so didn't she tell him?
Xiao Sang also became anxious: "Princess, please get up quickly. I will help you change some clothes. Mr. Li is waiting in the hall!"
It was winter, and Su Wan was too lazy to get up. It was just after the Chinese New Year in the past few days. She had nothing else to do, so she slept in the bed. Now she didn't even put on makeup, her face was white and clean, and she was fully dressed. Warm pajamas.
It would be really embarrassing if she met a guest, and it was her fiancé!
Su Wan quickly stood up and lowered his voice: "Hurry up, hurry up, go get my clothes!"
When Xiao Sang saw her getting up, he quickly took her dress over, then asked Xiao Bao to come over and comb her hair, add a hosta, and put on a thin layer of plain makeup. She went to the main hall to meet the guests.
When Su Wan arrived, Li Lin was sitting on the Arhat chair and drinking tea. He was wearing a sky-blue long-sleeved robe with dark embroidery of gold and bamboo, a bronze crown on his head, and a slender and straight figure.
At this time, he was holding a cup in his hand, looking around with a calm expression, and his eyes gradually became gentle.
It was his first time to visit the boudoir where Su Wan lived, and he couldn't help but feel a little curious, thinking about how she would live here, whether she was lazily leaning on the Arhat chair and reading a book with a soft pillow, or walking slowly past In the yard, smile in the flower garden.
Either resting on the couch in the boudoir or dressing up in front of the mirror, spring, summer, autumn and winter, the four seasons cycle, year after year.
Everywhere here there are traces of her life.
As he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard the sound of opening the door, and then there was a sound of soft footsteps, which seemed to be walking this way step by step. He turned around and saw Su Wan led the people across the threshold and walked in.
His eyes fell on her face for a moment, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that her skin was white and she didn't look sick.
There was a smile between his brows, and his voice was gentle and tired: "Ah Wan."
"Master Li."
The two looked at each other, and Su Wan had a smile on her lips. She suddenly felt that she was in a good mood. She asked Xiao Sang and Xiao Wei to guard the door and sat down opposite him.
Li Lin poured her a cup of hot tea and asked about her: "I heard that you were sick, but are you okay now? Are there any other discomforts on your body?"
"I'm not sick, but I just don't want to go to the palace banquet. I also thought that if I recovered too quickly, people would be suspicious, so I kept saying that I'm not recovered yet. You don't need to worry. I didn't let Hui Feng spread the word about this." Here you go, why, didn’t it arrive?”
Su Wan felt a little embarrassed when she thought that he didn't know about this and ran back in a hurry because he was worried about her, "It's my fault for letting you make this trip."
Li Lin explained: "You don't need to blame yourself. The words have arrived. It's just that I'm thinking about it in my heart. I always feel uneasy. I only want to feel relieved when I see it with my own eyes. Now that I've seen it, I feel much more at ease. You don't need to feel sorry." , it would be great if I could come over and meet you.”
He hadn't seen her for a long time. She pretended to be sick to get Su Xun to let him go so that he could see her. It would also be a good idea to come to Guanyuan and see with her own eyes where she lived. the result of.
Su Wan was moved when she heard this, but for a moment she didn't know how to respond. She pinched her sleeves and asked him, "Didn't you return to Yancheng? Why did you come out so soon?"
"After the New Year, there was nothing else to do, so I came back."
His eyes swept over her face without leaving a trace, then he looked outside the door and talked about things in Shiqiao Village: "The courtyard over there is also ready, and I also ordered people to buy some furniture, but it's just not I know if you like it or not. If you don’t like it, just wait until we get there and add more.”
"I left a few people behind to plant some flowers after spring. After you pass by, you can enjoy the flowers..."
