Queen's Development

Chapter 97 Sudden Change
Lin Jia lived in Qinglong Guanzhai for a night, and always felt that the house had been unoccupied for a long time, had a dusty smell, and was uncomfortable, so she took Yuzhi back after staying for a night.

Seeing that it was almost the twelfth lunar month, Lin Yi, the third son who was studying abroad, went to the capital to pick up the old dowager and the three younger sisters Lin Lixiang, Lin Guixi and Lin Lanzi who accompanied the old dowager in the capital back to Qingzhou. up.

That night, a family banquet was held at the Qingshouyuan where the old concubine lived, and Lin Jia naturally took Yuzhi and Alan to go.

Lin Jia took Yuzhi and Alan away from Qinglianyuan, and walked northwards. After walking for about two cups of tea, they arrived at Qingshouyuan where the old concubine lived.

Alan stayed outside and waited, while Lin Jia took Yuzhi into the Qingshouyuan.

Yu Zhi looked around at the surrounding scenery while walking, and saw many maidservants in rich clothes standing under the corridor of the main room, and several richly dressed daughters-in-law waiting outside the main room door, so she knew that Princess Li might be the same. Arrived.

Dongmei, the maidservant of the old concubine, stood outside the curtain and saw the handsome and tall second son Lin Jia leading a beautiful and slender maid in. Guessing that this was the maid Yuzhi who was loved by the second son, she stared at her. Yuzhi looked at it, then went up to greet her with a smile, bowed her knees and saluted Lin Jia: "Greetings to the second son! The old concubine has been looking forward to the second son for a long time, and now the princess is talking with the old concubine, the second son is quick!" go in!"

Lin Jia nodded, and saw Chunhua, the maid in charge of lifting the curtain, lifted the white satin curtain with red plum pattern, and followed Dongmei into the bright room.

Naturally, Yuzhi waited in the corridor with the maidservants.

As soon as Lin Jia entered, she saw a woman in her fifties with a ruddy complexion sitting on the rosewood Luohan bed in front of her. .

The old concubine loved Lin Jia the most. When she saw Lin Jia coming in, a smile appeared on her well-prepared face, and she said softly, "Ah Jia, come here and let grandma have a look!"

Lin Jia first bowed to Lin Tao and Princess Li who were sitting on the armchairs by the east wall, and then greeted each other with Lin Yi, Lin Lixiang, Lin Guixi and Lin Lanzi who were sitting on the armchairs by the west wall. Next to the old concubine, she sat down on the Arhat bed next to the old concubine.

The old concubine stayed with the queen mother in the palace and hadn't returned to Qingzhou for more than three years. She liked Lin Jia very much when she saw Lin Jia. She touched Lin Jia's face and shook Lin Jia's hand. She was very affectionate.

The third son, Lin Yi, is about fifteen or sixteen years old. He has a lovely baby face, his skin is like white porcelain, his eyes are so dark that they are almost blue, his nose is straight, and his lips are bright red. He looks like a natural fairy boy It seemed, but this fairy boy was a little cold, he didn't even look at Lin Jia, and sat there by himself, drinking tea silently with a teacup in his hand.

The eldest girl, Lin Lixiang, is the concubine's daughter of Princess Li. She is just 15 years old this year. She looks a lot like Princess Li, with big eyes, pointed chin, and small cherry mouth. She is very delicate, but her expression is extremely arrogant.

The second girl, Lin Guixi, is also a descendant of Princess Li. She is 13 years old this year, with slightly dark skin, and she looks a bit like her father Lin Tao.

Lin Lixiang and Lin Guixi were born by Princess Li. Seeing that the old lady liked Lin Jia so much, she was upset and pretended not to see it.

Lin Lanzi was born of Mrs. Xu, born just like her mother, very sweet, always with a sweet smile on her face, always favored by the old concubine, jokingly said: "Grandmother is partial, with a second elder brother, she won't love her granddaughter anymore !"

The old concubine was very happy: "Everything hurts!"

The family banquet was very lively, and between the cups and cups, Concubine Li smiled and said to the old concubine, "Mother, the wintersweet plums in Zhuangzi outside the city are all in bloom now, why don't we go to the whole house to enjoy the plums tomorrow?"

The old concubine was very elegant, she was a famous poetess when she was young, she immediately agreed when she heard the words: "Everyone will go tomorrow, our family will be lively!"

Seeing that the old concubine agreed, Princess Li smiled sweeter and her big eyes sparkled: "Mother, I will order someone to arrange it tomorrow morning!"

The old concubine loved wax plums very much, and she had written many poems about wax plums in those years. As long as she used plum appreciation as an excuse, the old concubine would definitely go there.

And the old concubine loves Lin Jia the most, so she will definitely bring Lin Jia there.

In this case, her plan can be implemented smoothly.

This Zhuangzi belongs to the old concubine. If something happened to Lin Jia, her stepmother can clean it up...

Lin Jia was naturally happy to see her loving grandmother, so she couldn't help but drink a few more glasses, and helped Alan out of the Qingshouyuan, and Yuzhi led the way to Qinglianyuan in the southeast corner with the glazed hydrangea lamp.

Halfway through the journey, Yuzhi felt her hands were a little cold, and by the light of the lantern, she saw that it was snowing.

She looked up at the sky and found that there were snowflakes falling in the sky one after another. She was so happy that she turned her head and said, "It's snowing!"

Lin Jia reached out to catch a snowflake, watched the snowflake slowly melt away, and sighed.

Time flies so fast, in ten days he will be leaving for Beijing!
When they walked back to Qinglian Courtyard, the ground was already completely white, and the snowflakes that were as fine as salt turned into heavy snow, falling from the sky one after another.

Alan went to rest by herself, and Yuzhi helped Lin Jia back to the main room.

While Lin Jia was taking a shower in the bathroom, Yu Zhi went to the small kitchen, ordered a cup of Lin Jia's favorite rose osmanthus honey tea and went back to the main room.

As soon as she entered the bedroom, she saw Lin Jia coming out of the bathroom. She was wearing a moon white pine silk jacket and trousers, her slightly wet long black hair was loose, and her handsome face was filled with wet breath.

Yuzhi smiled and handed the teacup to Lin Jia, letting Lin Jia sit on the brocade couch in front of the window to drink tea, while she took a large silk scarf and knelt on the brocade couch to wipe Lin Jia's hair.

Lin Jia was sitting there with a teacup in her hand, her nose faintly smelled of Yu Zhi's unique body fragrance, and she was a little distracted.

Yuzhi was dressed very thinly, and occasionally her chest would touch Lin Jia, making all his nerve endings energized like numbness, and there was a quick reaction below.

Lin Jia was afraid that Yuzhi would find out, so she whispered, "Okay!"

He got up and was about to leave, but Yuzhi was concentrating on wiping his hair, she missed it for a moment, fell on his back, her plump breasts also bumped into him unexpectedly.

Yuzhi let out an "ouch" in pain, and quickly covered her place with her hands.

Lin Jia turned to look at her, but when Yuzhi saw Lin Jia, she felt something was wrong—Lin Jia had a nosebleed again!
She was afraid that Lin Jia would feel dizzy again, so she quickly took the handkerchief, straightened her upper body, moved it to Lin Jia's nose, and wiped it vigorously.

Unexpectedly, Lin Jia's nosebleed was surging, and after being wiped by her, it became even more surging. Lin Jia reached out to touch it, and seeing the blood on his finger, he immediately passed out.

Yuzhi's eyes were quick and her hands were quick, she immediately hugged Lin Jia, put him on the brocade couch, then hurriedly jumped out of bed to find the bottle of peppermint oil.

After waking up, Lin Jia's nosebleed had stopped, and he sat listlessly on the edge of the brocade couch with his eyes lowered, without saying a word.

Yuzhi looked at him, and felt that he was really a dejected puppy. She was amused and distressed at the same time, and said softly: "This time we go to the capital, let's take Doctor Liu with us!"

His body is so weak that he really had to bring Dr. Liu with him.

Lin Jia nodded, too lazy to speak.

His face was as pale as jade, and his brows and eyes were darkened and his lips were red. He was really a standard image of a sickly handsome man.

Lin Jia felt really strange, as soon as Yuzhi approached him, or smelled Yuzhi's smell, the pores of his whole body seemed to explode, as if the nosebleed would flow out in the next second...

The next morning, the snow had stopped, and the masters of Xingping County Wangfu left the palace and went out of the city in a mighty way.

After resting in Biezhuang in the morning, everyone started various activities in the afternoon.

The steward of Bie Zhuang is He Cheng'an, the son of the old concubine's accompanying room. He greeted the masters and said with a smile: "The Zhuangzi is simple, there are only two places where you can play, one is the wintersweet grove, and the female relatives can go to enjoy it; One is the racecourse, and the two sons can go for a ride."

Princess Li said with a smile: "In that case, I will accompany my mother and the three girls to the plum forest to ride the snow and enjoy the plum blossoms. My lord, you can take Ajia and Ayi to ride a horse!"

Lin Tao felt that this idea was sound, so he took Lin Jia and Lin Yi to the racetrack.

Yuzhi and A Lan, who were dressed as servants, naturally followed along with the servants.

The racecourse is very wide, covered with a thick layer of snow, it is very flat.

Three grooms in black riding uniforms led a total of three horses and walked to Lin Tao, Lin Jia and Lin Yi respectively.

Lin Jia saw that his father and Lin Yi were both on the horse, so he got on the horse in the stirrups, clamped the horse's belly, and drove the horse to a canter behind his father.

After Lin Tao rode for a while, he saw a horse racing track to the east, so he led Lin Jia and Lin Yi to the horse race.

Lin Jia had never been competitive in this regard, so he was not in a hurry. As soon as the command drum sounded, he clamped his horse's belly and jumped out unhurriedly.

Unexpectedly, the horse he was riding seemed to like to show off, and rushed out like an arrow, and soon overtook Lin Tao and Lin Yi who were rushing forward.

Lin Tao knew Lin Jia's character well, so he was startled when he saw this situation, and hurriedly chased after him.

Lin Jia had never ridden such a fast horse before. Seeing the horse galloping like crazy, he already knew something was wrong with the horse, so he grabbed the reins tightly and lay down on the horse's back, ready to get off the horse at all times. drop down.

The horse ran faster and faster, and the horse's hooves raised white snow powder, one person and one horse rushed away, turning into a white mist.

Lin Jia crouched on the horse's back, and happened to see a thick hemp rope not far away, blocking him directly in front of him.

His heart sank immediately, knowing that he was doomed this time!

In the blink of an eye, Lin Jia quickly made a choice. He leaned to the right, then let go of the rein, and was instantly thrown off by the galloping horse.

He hugged his head tightly and rolled over on the snow.

And his horse galloped out, was stopped by the hemp rope in an instant, fell forward all of a sudden, let out a painful cry, and twisted his head at an incredible angle-this horse's neck was broken!
Seeing this scene, Lin Tao's heart ached, he flew off his horse, and knelt down beside Lin Jia: "Ajia! Ajia!"

Lin Jia's eyes were closed tightly, blood was streaming down the side of his face, and he didn't respond at all.

Yuzhi hurried over.
