The peasant girl who escaped the desert: she cried when she found the cruel prince

Chapter 351: There is no place to hide the beauty in the golden house

It was the first time that Jing Li entered Tantai Lin's study.

The displays inside are just like his temperament, showing coldness and aloofness everywhere.

Only a few pots of orchids by the window, and a few pistils among the green leaves, gave the cold tone of the entire room a slight buffer.

Tantai Lin opened a map for her, covering the five hundred miles of Chang'an.

"If you want to protect the people in the village and give them safety, we have to capture these places!" Tantai Lin pointed to several fortresses on the map and said to Jingli.

"The old guy probably won't survive next year, so these places are my betrothal gifts. Do you think they're okay?" Tantai Lin leaned on her shoulder and said.

Jing Li was touched in her heart and didn't know what to say. He had thought of everything that needed to be considered, and it seemed that there was no room for rejection.

Tantai Lin was just about to tell her about the marriage proposal when Uncle Fang came to report: "Your Majesty, General Bai and several other adults are here, saying they have something to discuss with you!"

Chang'an City is in chaos now, with a lot of aftermath work to deal with, and no backbone, so you have to come to Tantai Lin to make decisions. After all, he is the only person here who can make the decision.

When Jingli heard that Bai Changhe had also arrived, she immediately felt uneasy and said, "No, you have someone stop them and let Uncle Bai see what I'm saying here!"

She didn't care, and Tantai Lin was not very polite, but she couldn't make Bai Changhe look ugly. If other people saw a man and a woman living alone in the same room, they wouldn't know how to arrange it later.

Uncle Fang wondered: "But several adults have already come over. I thought these are not outsiders, so..."

Tantai Lin glanced at Uncle Fang approvingly, the old man finally understood.

Jing Li stamped her feet anxiously: "Then I have to find a place to hide. You should have some kind of dark room or something like that, right?"

Jing Li asked hopefully.

Tantai Lin spread his hands: "Look at the bookshelves and ancient bookshelves in this room. Which place seems to have a secret room?"

"Why should I build a secret room when everything is fine? I'm hiding my beauty in a golden house?"

Jing Li was dumbfounded. Didn't this mean that in ancient times, these princes, generals and ministers would all create secret rooms for themselves to hide some precious letters?
Bai Changhe's laughter could already be heard outside: "Hahaha, this is my first time to visit His Highness Prince Changling's residence. Well, this palace is just different from other places!"

There were no concubines, Sizhu, or any exotic animals. The more Bai Changhe looked at it, the more he thought it was good. What did people outside say that Prince Changling was like?

How could a person with such a simple and low-key style be such a cruel and unreasonable person!

Several adults around him also echoed: "Indeed, they are all spreading lies. I see that this Prince Changling is simply a rare person with noble character among the royal family!"

Zhu Datong, who was following behind, curled his lips and said, "These old guys really talk about people and ghosts. Just a month ago, you all said that King Changling was militaristic and was simply a sinner who brought harm to the country."

The footsteps were getting closer and closer. Jingli had nowhere to hide, so she ducked under Tantai Lin's desk.

Fortunately, his desk is large and spacious, and the bottom is empty. There is a curtain hanging on the outside, so if someone is hiding inside, no one will notice what is underneath if they don't come closer to take a look.

Tantai Lin was stunned and then laughed. Ever since he met Jing Li, this girl had always been rational and calm. It was rare to see such a cute side of her, and the corner of her mouth was raised and could not be lowered.

Bai Changhe and others came in and saw King Changling, who always kept strangers away, with a smile on his face, and felt relieved in his heart.

Regarding Bai Changhe's arrival, Tantai Lin stood up to greet him very politely: "I don't know that General Bai is here, but I am not far enough to greet you. Please forgive me, General!" As soon as he said this, several adults following him rolled their eyes. Almost falling out.

This is so shocking. Even when the emperor and King Changling were not so polite, what kind of luck did Bai Changhe have to be treated with such courtesy by King Changling.

Bai Changhe was also surprised, and then he bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty, you are too polite. It is a lowly official who has taken the liberty to come to visit. It is disrespectful!"

Zhu Datong muttered in his heart, Lao Bai, please be more confident. The prince treats you as an elder. You still don’t believe that he is interested in your niece.

Several elders were exposed to Bai Changhe's glory, and were greeted one by one by Tantai Lin, and ordered to serve tea.

Several veterans sat down tremblingly, they were simply flattered.

"I wonder what the important matters are for the adults coming here today?" Tantai Lin asked politely.

Among them, Mr. Jiao, the Minister of Rites, stood up quickly and replied: "Your Highness, there is no master in the city now, and everything is in chaos. I came here for no other reason than to ask Your Highness to take charge of the overall situation!"

He was promoted after Mr. Yuan was sent away. He didn't dare to say a word to Tantai Lin. He didn't want to go to the grassland to be an angel who preached and taught.

Tantai Lin looked confused: "As you all know, I have always had a bad temper, and my reputation is extremely unpleasant. If you want me to host it, I'm afraid you have found the wrong person!"

Upon hearing this, the old men hurriedly tried to persuade him, and their kind words and compliments were as if they were free of money, and they were thrown at Tantai Lin.

Jingli felt uncomfortable squatting below, so she leaned over and sat down on Tantai Lin's lap, resting her head on his thigh and closing the door to meditate.

Tantai Lin's face changed slightly, she just felt something strange at the base of her legs, but it was hard for others to see, so she couldn't help but reach out and touch her head.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty has gone to Shuzhong. If there is no one in Chang'an to take charge of the overall situation, and the White Lotus Army or barbarians invade, will your Majesty want to watch the foundation of our ancestors be destroyed?"

"His Highness is the youngest son of the late emperor and a fellow brother of the current Holy Emperor. It is only appropriate for him to take charge of the overall situation. In this case, what doubts does Your Highness have?"

Mainly the three words "King of Changling" are the patron saint of Chang'an. Without Tantai Lin, they might have to flee. No place outside is safe these days. Those who can escape A few people survived.

Well, her hair is very smooth, but there is no headdress on her head. No one from Ali's family bought it for her before, and this girl is not easy to dress up. From now on, she will have to take care of it herself.

Tantai Lin silently thought about it in his mind, which store in Chang'an City made good jewelry, he had to find out quickly.

The skin on her face is smooth and smooth, but she is running around outside every day. It is impossible for her daughter's family to take good care of her face. Are the rare medicinal materials in the old man's warehouse still there?

Dr. Shen has nothing to do, so let him study it!
The old ministers over there were foaming at the foam as they talked, and Tantai Lin had already reached the sky with a smile on his lips.

"Your Highness, what do you think of this matter?" Master Jiao asked cautiously. Seeing Tantai Lin's lips smiling but not replying, his heart suddenly rose again.

Seeing that he hadn't moved for a while, Jing Li couldn't help but pinch the tender flesh of his leg to remind him.

Tantai Lin was grabbed so unexpectedly by her that she couldn't help but let out a muffled groan, which made several people stand up in fright.

"Your Highness, what's the matter with you?"
