Since Lin Weixi became pregnant, there has been a lot of news. The news that the British Duke decided to adopt Gao Ke as his grandson only reached her ears after several days.
Lin Weixi embraced the hand stove early. She sank softly into the pillow. When she heard the news, her slender fingertips moved. Then she lowered her eyes and concentrated her expression, silently staring at the silver hand stove with bird patterns in her palm.
Although the formal ceremony has not yet taken place, the adoption of Gao Ke has been confirmed. When the ancestral hall is opened in the future, Gao Ke's name will be written under the name of the Wei family. From then on, Gao Ke will be the son of the Wei family. Perhaps many years later, when future generations opened the family tree again, they could only see that the Wei family had a daughter named Gao Xi and a son named Gao Ke. No one will know about the adoption, the entangled and chaotic past between the Wei family and the British prince, and the ten-year confrontation between the eldest daughter-in-law and the concubine.
Lin Weixi lowered his eyes, and after a long time, he sighed softly.
This time the British government has truly passed away from her life, and her grievances and disputes as Gao Xi have also ended completely. From then on, the Gao family and her were just acquaintances by marriage.
Lin Weixi did not blame her mother's family before the end of her previous life, nor did she hate Gu Chengyao. She just regretted that the last trace of her mother's legacy in the world was about to disappear. After she dies, who will remember the British Crown Princess Wei and burn incense for her every year on her death anniversary? Lin Weixi felt that maybe she was born with a small talent and could not learn to be generous. Everyone is dead, why are you still clinging to glory and fame? But she just didn't want to. She would rather the British prince's title be lost or left to outsiders than the child who killed his mother take over the palace and live in glory for the rest of his life.
Why does Gao Chen deserve it?
But these things will have nothing to do with her in the future. She has secretly given Gao Ke a push. From now on, it is Gao Ke's own business whether he can defeat Gao Chen and become the crown prince, whether he can handle the relationship between the Duke's government and his native family, and whether he can carry forward the Gao family. Lin Weixi only sent him here to save the urgent but not the poor. No matter whether Gao Ke could live well in the future, Lin Weixi would no longer care.
Wan Xing originally told Lin Wei Xi the news in a casual chat, but after she brought up these things, Lin Wei Xi became uncharacteristically calm. Wanyue was surprised and watched Lin Weixi carefully. Lin Weixi lowered his head and stared at the silver hand stove silently for a while. After a while, he let out a long sigh. Although the sigh was low and inaudible, the knot between Lin Weixi's brows seemed to be lifted, and his whole person became clear and light, as if some of the shackles placed on Lin Weixi had finally broken.
Wanyue felt something hidden in her heart. Although she didn't understand why Lin Weixi was like this, she was still sincerely happy for Lin Weixi when she saw that the princess had completely come out of the past. Nowadays, Prince Yan and Lin Wei Xi have a deep relationship, Princess Shen's grudge has been resolved, and the future mistress has quietly come to Lin Wei Xi's belly. Everything is developing in a good direction. Wan Yue sincerely hopes that both the prince and princess will be well.
Wan Xing didn't notice this. She felt uneasy when she saw that Lin Weixi hadn't spoken for a long time, and the nagging in her mouth gradually stopped. Lin Weixi came back to her senses and looked up at Wan Xing, with a bright smile in her eyes: "Why don't you say anything anymore?"
Wan Xing breathed a sigh of relief, and her tone immediately became high-spirited: "Princess, Princess Runing invites you to go to Huangjue Temple to offer incense."
Huangjue Temple is a temple dedicated to the royal family, and is a favorite place for royal princesses and concubines. Lin Weixi thought for a while and asked: "When?"
"Twenty."
Lin Weixi has now passed the most dangerous first trimester, and her pregnancy has gradually stabilized. She also wants to go out and walk around to get some fresh air. Moreover, this period was an eventful time. The British prince died unexpectedly, and the court was not peaceful. Lin Weixi wanted to take this opportunity to offer incense sticks to Lin Yong, Wei and others, and also to pay tribute to the eldest princess Shoukang and the baby in her belly. Children pray for good health in the coming year. There are not many people left around her now, and she wants them all to be well from the bottom of her heart.
Lin Weixi said: "Since it is the eldest princess who invites us, there is no reason why we should not respond. You can send someone to give the princess a reply."
Wan Xing responded, turned around and went out to give orders. His movements were neat and skillful.
Who would have thought now that Wan Xing and Wan Yue were both bought from the private sector. Although Wanyue is a servant of the official family, in the eyes of people in the capital, what is the difference between a maid from a magistrate's family in a remote small county and a country person?
However, step by step, Wan Xing and Wan Yue also transformed into another person. Now, they are already famous maids of Prince Yan's Mansion in the capital.
Lin Weixi decided on the itinerary for leaving the house and didn't care about the rest. On the twentieth day, Lin Weixi and many of his followers boarded the carriage.
When the princess goes out, Gao Ran, the daughter-in-law, has no reason not to accompany her. She sat in another car, listening to the rhythmic sound of the wheels, and slowly drove away from Prince Yan's Mansion.
When Lin Weixi arrived, Princess Runing's car happened to stop. When Princess Runing saw Lin Weixi, she hurriedly came over with a smile and held Lin Weixi's hand warmly: "It's not easy to meet Princess Yan. Why is King Yan willing to let you out today?" Princess Runing looked back as she said this He went and shouted in surprise: "Hey, King Yan didn't come with you? He actually trusted the beautiful princess to go out alone. The sun really came out in the west."
Lin Weixi pursed her lips and smiled, ignoring Princess Runing's joke, but explained: "The prince had something urgent to do today and was called away early in the morning. It's not like I have no hands or feet. Without him , could it be that you can’t walk anymore?”
"This is different." Princess Runing said with a smile, "He didn't say it, but he must have been thinking about it in his heart. Who doesn't know that King Yan has been unhindered for twenty years, but in the past few days, he has been absent from military training and I asked for leave early in the morning, not because of the new pregnant princess. In fact, you can’t blame King Yan. Even if I have a beautiful and charming princess like you, I would not be willing to leave the house, and I can’t wait to be with you all day long.”
Everyone laughed when he said this. Lin Weixi has often been teased by others since she got married. At first, she was so embarrassed that she couldn't speak. Now she is used to it and can reply with a few married jokes without changing her expression. It was precisely because of safety that everyone came up with it. Lin Weixi knew that they always joked like this because she had a good relationship with King Yan. Otherwise, why did no one make fun of her and Gu Chengyao in her previous life.
Lin Weixi and Runing walked inside talking and laughing. Huangjue Temple knew that the princess and Princess Yan were coming today, so they cleared the place early. Lin Weixi held the incense and slowly kowtowed three times in the hall where the Buddha's smoke curled up. She thought silently in her heart: "Mother, you have a legitimate son in your name. That child is very smart and ambitious. When you meet him in the future, you will probably like him."
"Mother, father has also passed away. It's funny to say that you lost your body due to blood loss due to miscarriage. He has been domineering for so many years, and he died of blood loss in the end. You two will meet under the clouds, if you are willing Just continue to be husband and wife with him. If you don't want to, then let's make peace with each other and live well together. My unfilial daughter, I only hope that you two will have spirits in heaven and be healthy in the next life."
Lin Weixi kowtowed, and when she straightened up, she closed her eyes and whispered again: "Dad Lin Yong, mother and daughter of the Lin family, I am very grateful for your kindness. I will always provide you with sutras to help you survive in this life. May you two have a harmonious life in the next life. This time, your family must last forever."
Lin Weixi’s last wish was for her unborn child. My mother doesn’t know whether you are a boy or a girl, but you are my mother’s treasure for two lifetimes. She hopes that you will come early, but is afraid that you will come out too soon. She has not yet learned how to be a mother. But as long as she, Lin Weixi, is alive for one day in this life, she will definitely use all her strength to be good to you.
Lin Weixi stood up and bowed three times with a very pious attitude. With a solemn expression, she slowly inserted the incense stick into the incense burner.
Although Runing is a princess, she is also very convinced of the gods and Buddhas. After the incense offering, the eldest princess Runing wanted to follow the host to listen to the singing. Lin Weixi was pregnant now and did not want to sit for a long time, so she politely declined. Princess Ning’s invitation.
The novice monk in Huangjue Temple carefully received Lin Weixi. After walking out of the main hall gate, the novice monk asked: "Can the donor go and ask for a peace sign?"
Lin Weixi came to the Buddhist temple just for peace of mind. She didn't believe this at first, but for some reason, her words of rejection were on the tip of her tongue today, but she came back again.
"Okay, thank you, Master."
Lin Weixi suddenly thought that Gu Huiyan had fought many battles in the past years and had countless wounds, both open and hidden. The current situation was not peaceful either. As the auxiliary prince, Gu Huiyan was the one standing at the center of the whirlpool. Even if she could use the excuse of being pregnant to stop him, the most important part still had to be Gu Huiyan's personal intervention. She wanted to ask Gu Huiyan for a peace charm.
With the beginning, Lin Weixi's thoughts seemed to be suddenly opened up. Princess Shoukang, her close relatives and friends... She wanted to ask for a peace charm for each of these people, even if it was just for peace of mind.
Lin Weixi went to pray for peace for his relatives and friends. By the time it was over, a long time had passed. Lin Weixi held a thick stack of peach charms and stood in the bright and dry October sunshine, feeling unprecedentedly sad.
It turns out that before she knew it, she had so many worries after her rebirth.
Wanyue had been following Lin Weixi closely. When she saw Lin Weixi standing motionless in the autumn wind for a long time, she stepped forward to hold Lin Weixi's arm and said softly: "Princess, it is cold in the late autumn. I will help you to sit in the guest room for a while." Right."
No one in the palace dared to let Lin Wei Xi stand for a long time. Lin Wei Xi came back to his senses and nodded lightly in agreement.
As a royal temple, Huangjue Temple has long prepared clean and quiet guest rooms for the female relatives of various mansions. Lin Weixi was sitting in the guest room waiting for Princess Runing. She sat for a while and suddenly frowned: "Where is the Crown Princess?"
You need to meditate when worshiping the Buddha, so they burned incense separately. After that, she was so busy asking for the peace charm that she didn't notice where Gao Ran went.
Wan Xing ran outside to ask a few questions, and then came back and said: "The ladies of the British Duke's Palace are also here today. The Crown Princess may have gone to talk to her family."
By such a coincidence, the British Duke's Palace also came. Although Huangjue Temple had closed its doors early to thank guests, the British Duke's Palace and Prince Yan's Palace were related by marriage, so they always had to give this face. Lin Weixi didn't think much about it, just heard it. When Princess Runing finally came back from listening to the sutra, the two of them sat for a while and then walked out together. Lin Weixi sent someone to tell Gao Ran that he was back, and he slowly walked out with Runing. It was a coincidence that on the way out of the temple, Lin Weixi met the British government head-on.
"Prince Yan's Mansion, Princess Runing." Mrs. Gao Er greeted them from a distance, smiling attentively, "We just said we were going to visit Princess Yan, but we happened to meet her halfway. The princess and the princess were here. Are you leaving?"
Gao Ran quickly stepped forward and saluted Lin Weixi: "Mother."
Lin Weixi glanced at Gao Ran, nodded and smiled lightly at the British Duke's Mansion: "I couldn't sit still outside, so I wanted to go back quickly. If you are interested in the Duke's Mansion, you can take a leisurely stroll in the temple. It’s just the Crown Princess, if you have anything to say to your parents, you can tell it slowly in the future, but now we have to go back.”
Gao Ran lowered his head and apologized: "It was my daughter-in-law who got carried away and talked to her natal sisters and lost track of time. Please punish me, mother."
Lin Weixi glanced at her, too lazy to pay attention to Gao Ran's little tricks. Can she really punish Gao Ran in front of everyone? Lin Weixi said calmly: "If it doesn't happen next time, get up."
Gao Ran responded and followed Lin Weixi with a low eyebrow. Everyone in the British government was a little embarrassed to see such a scene. Gao Ran was the best-married daughter in their family. None of her sisters and aunts were careful to flatter Gao Ran, but in front of Lin Weixi, Gao Ran didn't even dare to speak loudly.
The second wife of Gao Er murmured in her heart. It was strange to say that Gao Ran had never been so clingy to his mother and family in the past, but today he pulled them to talk for a long time, but she didn't say anything big. They had long said that they were coming to visit Princess Yan, but they were constantly interrupted by Gao Ran. It was not until the princess's people came to see them that Gao Ran took them out together.
The second-year high school wife muttered a few words in her mind and put it behind her. Gao Ke is now considered to be half a member of the palace. His sisters and aunts come out to worship the Buddha. As a junior man, of course he has to accompany them. Now everyone was walking outside the temple together. Gao Ke found an opportunity and stepped forward to salute Lin Weixi: "Princess Yan."
Gao Ke is very suitable to be the heir in all aspects. Ever since Lin Weixi gave him three months of training, Gao Ke has been deliberately making friends with Lin Weixi. Lin Weixi had nothing to do with this. She glanced back, and her eyes flashed with indescribable beauty: "Lift people up."
Gao Ke had already won the imperial examination in Qiu Wei two months ago, and became the youngest person to be elected in the capital at a young age.
"What the princess said offends me. This junior's success depends on the princess's help in times of need. The kindness of the princess is unforgettable and I will never forget it. How dare I be called such a princess."
"How can I not bear it? Although I gave you three months to practice, the success of the exam was ultimately achieved by your talent and learning. You are only sixteen years old, you deserve the title of genius. Get up."
Gao Ke was still modest. Although he was respectful to Lin Weixi, there was a sense of intimacy in his words and deeds, not the cold and alienating respect. Having such a good attitude is also a test of my ability.
Lin Weixi smiled softly in his heart and walked out of the mountain gate surrounded by everyone. There was a person standing outside with his back to them. The sunlight shone on him, making his figure look very handsome and slender. Hearing the voice, he turned around and his eyes seemed to fall on Lin Weixi accidentally, but he quickly moved away: "Mother."
"Prince?" Mrs. Gao Er was confused, "Why are you here?"
