The Village Doctress Chapter 665: Deliberately teasing
Based on Lin Fufu's current position, after all, this is the new emperor's own mother, so she has to save some face no matter what.
But if she still wants to continue wrestling with her, then let's talk about it.
After all, the empress dowager is also a smart woman, and she was defeated in the confrontation with Lin Fufu just now. Now that Lin Fufu didn't continue to run on her in consideration of the overall situation, she obeyed and went downhill.
"Well, the second thing Aijia said is about the princess' lifelong event." The empress dowager looked at Lin Fufu's face with a kind light on her face, and said with a smile, "What about that? It's also what we women say, and we can talk about it freely, and it's also Aijia's aunt's concern, the princess just don't complain about Aijia."
The kinder the empress dowager looks, the more funny Lin Fufu is.
But it was Lin Fen who was most surprised.
Today, she told Lin Fufu that the Wen family interfered in Lin Fufu's marriage, and then the empress dowager came to her.
It's really urgent! Lin Fen thought contemptuously.
"I understand what the Empress Dowager said. It's a conversation between women anyway, so let's talk about it. Even if there is something bad, how can I take it seriously?" Lin Fufu first expressed his position .
Although the empress dowager was upset again this time, because the topic hadn't started yet, she didn't dare to pick her up secretly, so she smiled and said, "Exactly!"
Lin Fufu took the initiative to say, "The empress dowager is worried that as a woman, I am so old, and the marriage has not yet been settled?"
The empress dowager originally thought that a woman would be taboo about her being too old and unmarried, but she was stunned for a moment when she saw that Lin Fufu didn't wait for her to say it first, but she said it openly first.
The two maids who served beside her were also stunned, and they peeked at Lin Fufu in surprise, only to find that His Highness the Eldest Princess had a pleasant face, and she was not angry at all.
"Uh...it seems that the princess is still not in a hurry." Seeing that the opportunity had been lost, the empress dowager could only say, "If Ai Jia remembers correctly, the princess will be twenty in the new year, right?"
"That's right, thank you Empress Dowager for remembering my age." Lin Fufu raised his lips and smiled, a sly gleam appeared in his bright eyes, "Actually, the elders thought that I was not in a hurry, but in fact Not necessarily, people who understand this palace will understand."
These words are actually implying that the Empress Dowager already has a sweetheart, so she doesn't have to come here to be annoying.
But the Empress Dowager originally planned for her son's country, and she knew who Lin Fufu's sweetheart was, so she couldn't let her marry!
After a cold light flashed in her eyes, the empress dowager took a sip of tea calmly, and Mulian hurriedly took her teacup.
"Princess, you are twenty years old and have not settled your marriage. It really doesn't look like you. You are a dignified princess!" , the princess should have made plans earlier, right?"
"That's right, I think so too." Lin Fufu laughed, so she was preparing for the way out, but she couldn't tell the queen mother about it.
Hearing the words, the empress dowager finally had a sincere smile on her face, she stared at Lin Fufu's face and said happily: "The Ai family knows that the princess is dedicated to Wei, so she will definitely listen to the Ai family's persuasion !”
Lin Fufu smiled and nodded, "Naturally."
"Then, does the princess have a good idea of the son-in-law's obviousness?" The empress dowager asked Lin Fufu with a smile like an elder who is enthusiastic about the younger generation's marriage.
At the same time, she also breathed a sigh of relief. Lin Fufu really thought so, so it would be the best!
However, she was still worried. After all, Lin Fufu and Prince Jin from Beirong Kingdom had a quarrel before. , there is no more text.
Now, the empress dowager is also glad that Ruoshui stopped her at that time, otherwise Lin Fufu would have married a prince of Beirong, and she would have been worried.
When a woman marries into her husband's family, most of her heart is devoted to her husband's family. Who knows if Lin Fufu really married that Prince Jin, would he help Beirong people bully Wei?
"It's no wonder the first emperor loved the princess so much. The princess really knows everything!"
Lin Fufu replied with a smile, "The empress dowager is absurd."
"You deserve it!" The queen mother narrowed her eyes, and the smile seemed to flow out of her eyes. She stared at Lin Fufu's clear water apricot eyes, and asked with concern: "In that case, does the princess have a candidate for a son-in-law?" ?” Paused, the tone became more gentle, “Although there are many outstanding young men in Wei Dawei, there are not many who are worthy of the princess. Don’t worry, the princess, these mourners have thought about it for the princess!”
After the words fell, the Empress Dowager carefully observed Lin Fufu's expression, and saw that she still had a smile on her face, but her eyes were dark and bottomless, she couldn't help being startled again.
Does this girl look like the kind of girl who talks about marriage?
With her appearance, she doesn't blush, she doesn't feel shy, she is too calm, right?
Seeing her burning eyes, Lin Fufu could almost see two holes in her face, so he couldn't help laughing, and then shook his head.
She would like to see if the empress dowager wants to name the Wen family's favorite candidates.
Seeing Lin Fufu shaking his head, the Empress Dowager's eyes flickered, and she said with a smile, "Then the princess will listen to the candidate that Aijia thinks of for the princess."
Lin Fufu still nodded with a smile.
Seeing that she was so obedient, the empress dowager had a bad feeling in her heart, but she still said, "The first candidate that Aijia thinks of is naturally Lord Xiaomeng, Minister of the Ministry of Officials! In terms of family background and identity It goes without saying that Mr. Xiao Meng came from the Meng family. Besides, Mr. Meng is still young, and he was valued by the first emperor. He was promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Officials at once. Such a capable talent is rare in Wei!"
Seeing that she pushed Meng Bufan first, Lin Fufu was not surprised, and then the empress dowager must say why Meng Bufan was inappropriate.
Sure enough, seeing that Lin Fufu didn't speak, the Empress Dowager's eyes flickered again, she stretched out her little finger with a nail cover and tapped on the table, and her face became serious.
"It's just that, no matter how good Mr. Xiaomeng is, it's not appropriate for Aijia to think about it." After the empress dowager finished speaking, she took a special look at Lin Fufu.
Lin Fufu was still smiling.
Seeing that she didn't answer, the Empress Dowager continued, "Since ancient times, Princess Shang's son-in-law only looks good, but she doesn't need to be talented. The best candidate is to love the princess and love the princess. The Meng family doesn't need it. Having said that, the Ai family, thinking that Mr. Meng will be successful in official career, will definitely not accept the princess. Even if he wants to honor the princess, the only seedling of the Meng family's eldest son will not agree!"
When Lin Fufu heard her say this, he sighed in his heart. She hoped that the Meng family would not agree, and that Meng Bufan would not agree with Princess Shang.
After all, what the empress dowager said was the truth. The son-in-law of Princess Shang in the Great Wei Dynasty, even if she was a talented person, took the initiative to avoid suspicion because she was the princess, and would not pursue official career.
Even Princess Ruoshui's son-in-law Gui was an amazingly talented person back then. If he was an official, he would at least be a ruler of the borderlands, but for Princess Ruoshui, he would die A scientific research trip?
"Princess, are you right about what Aijia said?" Seeing that Lin Fufu still didn't answer, the empress dowager frowned, but she still calmed down and asked gently.
"Oh! What the Empress Dowager said is true!" Lin Fufu recovered and nodded with a smile.
This made the empress dowager frowned even tighter. After talking for a long time, she couldn't figure out what this girl was thinking.
But then, she said another royal clan king came.
"Although King Haijun is a member of the royal family, he is far away from the ancestors of the Great Wei Emperor. Back then, his ancestors rescued the ancestors on the battlefield and rescued the injured ancestors from the It was recited from the dead, so the ancestor emperor granted their family the hereditary title of county king. And he happened to be of the same generation as the princess. He was also very handsome and gentle. This noble lady in the capital Ladies and gentlemen, I also admire her very much, if the princess is willing, she will be a good match!"
Lin Fufu hummed this time, shook his head and said, "I don't want to marry a relative of the Great Wei clan."
This is just an excuse to reject the empress dowager,
Not ashamed to say, she has such an excellent man as Huangfu Jin, she can't look down on anyone, what is a hereditary King of Haijun from the Great Wei?
The empress dowager didn't need to repeat the speech she had prepared, she was a little confused.
There were many reasons to say that the King of Haijun was not suitable, but Lin Fufu could solve it with a single sentence.
After talking so much, she happened to be thirsty, and with a look at her, Mu Lian, the court lady, hurriedly brought tea to her.
The empress dowager sipped tea, followed what she wanted to say, and after she put down the teacup, she looked at Lin Fufu with a smile and said, "Since the princess is not willing to marry into the family of the great Wei clan, then in the next few days The first candidate happens to be the identity of the great Wei clan, so I won’t talk about it. Let’s just talk about the last one.”
Lin Fufu couldn't help raising his eyebrows. The candidates for the clan that the Empress Dowager mentioned probably didn't exist at all, but they just made up the number by seeing Lin Fufu said that he would not marry the clan.
As for the finale candidate, hum!
"It's a coincidence that the Ai family has thought of a lot of candidates for the princess' son-in-law for fear of wronging the princess. However, a few days ago, the Ai family's mother handed over the sign to the palace to see the Ai family, and brought up the mourning with the Ai family. The second cousin of the eldest uncle's family is so good-looking and talented in writing, so he is inevitably a little arrogant. He doesn't like this one, and he doesn't like that one. .”
After finishing speaking, the empress dowager paused for a moment, then drank tea to moisten her mouth, and observed Lin Fufu's expression by the way.
The smile on Lin Fufu's face remained undiminished, and he reached out to serve tea, elegant and calm.
Those who don't know, think that what the Empress Dowager told her was not about her life, but someone else's.
"At that time, the Ai family thought of the princess! My second cousin's eyes grew on his forehead, so arrogant and arrogant, he never met a woman who could hold him down. The empress dowager covered the corners of her lips with a bright yellow imperial silk handkerchief, and then looked Lin Fufu up and down, "I'm afraid only a princess like this can subdue him!"
"Lianqiao, show the princess the portrait of Second Cousin Young Master." The Empress Dowager immediately turned to Lianqiao after finishing speaking.
Lian Qiao immediately responded, turned around and took out a painting scroll from the hand of the little maid behind her.
The smile on Lin Fufu's face deepened, and the corners of his lips raised slightly. The empress dowager really took great pains to prepare.
It's just that she took a special look at the maids and little eunuchs brought by the empress dowager, and only the little maid behind Lianqiao was holding the scroll.
In other words, the queen mother's preparations are still not complete. This is clearly to promote her own second cousin.
Mulian and Forsythia opened the scroll in person, and Lin Fufu glanced at it. The painting on it was indeed a handsome and extraordinary young man.
It's just that handsome is handsome, even in the picture scroll, his eyebrows flying into the temples are very sharp, and the expression in his eyes is very melancholy. Lin Fufu knew that this man was condescending and contemptuous.
No wonder they are in their mid-twenties and haven't gotten married yet.
"Well, this son is handsome, but he's not too young. How come he hasn't married yet?" Lin Fufu's eyes flashed with surprise.
Forsythia and Mulian saw that she seemed to be interested, and thought she was interested in that cousin of the Empress Dowager, they quickly looked at each other, and the corners of their lips were a little proud.
The empress dowager saw that Lin Fufu hadn't spoken much before, but she did ask her second cousin. Although she thought it was a good thing, she still didn't dare to take it lightly.
"Hey, the eldest aunt of the Ai family is the second cousin of the elderly student. The eldest uncle of the Ai family is also a middle-aged son, so it is inevitable that he will feel a little pain in his heart. When he gets older, he finds that not only his appearance He is handsome, and his literary talents are even more extraordinary, so he loves him even more, and he doesn't deliberately force him to develop that weird temperament. He thinks that most women in this world are vulgar and vulgar. Look, what a jerk?"
The empress dowager deliberately made what her second cousin said was arrogant and unrestrained.
Because she felt that since Lin Fufu was unusual to Prince Jin of Beirong earlier, she naturally took a fancy to Prince Jin's wild and unruly character.
When Huangfu Jin was sent to the Great Wei, she also personally experienced this point.
So, she also purposely played up her second cousin to be similar to what she thought Huangfu Jin's personality was.
Lin Fufu smiled and nodded, "So that's the case."
"Isn't it?" The Empress Dowager looked at Lin Fufu with burning eyes, waiting for Lin Fufu to ask something else.
Unexpectedly, Lin Fufu squeezed his lips into a smile, and with one sentence, the Empress Dowager's mood fell into the abyss.
"Thank you, Empress Dowager, for loving me, but ah, I can't choose my cousin anymore. If I choose him, wouldn't I be of the same generation as the Empress Dowager? Then I would like to call my aunt the Empress Dowager, Or should I call the Empress Dowager's cousin?" Lin Fufu was serious, and then shook his head again and again, "This is not good, this is too messy!"
Hearing what she said, the empress dowager almost spat out a mouthful of blood, then coughed violently, and her face turned red instantly.
What and what?
However, what Lin Fufu said is also true.
If Lin Fufu really chose her second cousin to be his son-in-law, it would really be embarrassing if people found out about this relationship.
She had thought about this issue before, but her mother said it was okay, there were many such marriages among the people, so she didn't think too much about it.
But Lin Fufu said it so bluntly, it really made her feel ashamed!
Lin Fufu was in a good mood after successfully making the empress dowager look like this.
Lin Fen also lowered her head and pursed her lips in joy.
Although she hadn't spoken all the time, and she didn't have her turn to speak, she was already upset with the empress dowager's blatant plotting against Lin Fufu.
The Empress Dowager coughed endlessly, Mu Lian and Lianqiao anxiously helped her straighten her chest and back, seeing that she was still coughing non-stop, they almost cried.
The more the empress dowager thought about it, the angrier she became, and the angrier she became, the more she coughed, she couldn't stop, she really had to cough up blood to be reconciled.
Mulian saw that the empress dowager was coughing so much that she almost shrank into a ball, and finally remembered Lin Fufu's great medical skills, so she knelt down in front of Lin Fufu with a plop, "His Royal Highness! The empress dowager suddenly coughed continuously, and she almost coughed." The bleeding is coming, please His Highness help the Empress Dowager to see what is going on?"
Lin Fufu nodded towards Lin Mei with a smile on his face. Lin Mei immediately stepped forward, stretched out his hand and tapped the empress dowager's shoulder blades twice, and the empress dowager finally stopped coughing.
Mulian and Lianqiao looked at Lin Mei with fear in their eyes.
"My maid is also good at medicine." Lin Fufu explained, and asked with a smile, "Lin Mei, is the Queen Mother in good health?"
Lin Mei replied solemnly: "Back to the girl! The empress dowager has a stagnation in her chest, it is better to ask the imperial doctor to prescribe medicine to recuperate!"
Lin Fufu glanced at her, then looked at the empress dowager and said, "My girl likes to exaggerate small things, it's really scary."
But the empress dowager couldn't sit still when she saw her saying this. She was really angry just now, and now she has a dull pain in her stomach.
The girl said that she needs to be prescribed medicine by the imperial doctor for her stagnation in her chest, that must be no small matter!
I don't know if Lin Fufu said it on purpose or not!
The more the Empress Dowager thought about it, the more she felt that Lin Fufu wanted to harm her, and when she coughed just now, she also figured out that Lin Fufu deliberately listened to the last candidate in a calm manner, so that the last one must hit, so that she The Empress Dowager of the Great Wei will never dare to interfere in her marriage again in the future!
The empress dowager felt that she had only seen through Lin Fufu now, and hated her so much that the little goodwill she had accumulated before was gone.
"The Ai family knows it. The princess doesn't want the Ai family to intervene in your marriage. In that case, it's fine for the princess to just say it straight. She really didn't intend to make false claims with the Ai family! I've let down the good intentions of the Ai family!" said After finishing these words to vent her anger, the empress dowager stood up abruptly, and coldly ordered: "Send me back to the palace!"
Lin Fufu didn't tell the difference, and smiled and said a respectful farewell to the Empress Dowager, Lin Fen hurriedly saluted and followed suit.
"Just now, did you really tease the empress dowager on purpose?" Lin Fen remembered the appearance of the empress dowager just now, and couldn't help but smile again.
