Chapter 620
The war at the border has finally turned around. The foreign tribes who were like wolves and tigers burned, killed and looted in the small town of the border.
When Lin Feize arrived at the border, he had once again stabilized the previously slack military spirit. The remaining prestige of General Weihu still made many soldiers feel awed. Take it back.
Because the enemy forces are too scattered, they can only be defeated one by one.So Lin Feize's first order after arriving was to divide his troops to sneak attack on several weakly defended cities, and he himself brought thousands of troops pretending to attack the fallen Yizhou City with all his might.
The enemy army mistakenly thought that the main force of the Chen Kingdom was in Yizhou City, so they inevitably relaxed their vigilance. Unexpectedly, they were suddenly awakened by the sound of horns at night, and hurriedly took their weapons and walked to the city gate, only to find that the soldiers of the Chen Kingdom had already rushed into the city gate.
Recapturing several cities overnight is far from a complete victory, but it is enough for the soldiers of Chen Kingdom who have been defeated frequently.
Morale boosted.
The news of the battle spread to the capital, and the whole country cheered.
It was as if a male lion that had been crushed and beaten finally opened his sharp eyes, and began to attack those fierce dogs fiercely and fiercely.
Lin Feize in the front was charging forward, but the Lin Mansion in the capital was frequently visited by distinguished guests.
Seeing that the Lin family was gaining momentum, those official women who looked down upon Wei Ninglan from a small family in a remote border gate rushed to the gate to comfort her who was pregnant with Liujia, pulling her to become a sister and a sister.
All of a sudden, Lin's mansion really returned to the upstart status of the dynasty when he just returned from Yizhou City, even more prosperous than before.
There were countless people who posted posts and came to the door. Lin Chuqian pushed some unimportant ones, but in this capital city full of royals and nobles, there are always some nobles who can't refuse.
As the month got older, Wei Ninglan's body became heavier and heavier, and sometimes it was really difficult to entertain the guests, so Lin Chuqian could only accompany her to meet the high-ranking officials and women who came to the door.
Those who come and go are just acquaintances, and the ones who can be named are only Mrs. Zhao, Mrs. Min, Mrs. Chen... I have seen them all at banquets in the past.
It's just that Wei Ninglan was timid when she first entered the capital, and her behavior inevitably seemed petty. Naturally, those noble ladies looked down on her, and at most they just greeted her politely when they met.
It's not like now, looking at the fetus in her womb with a benevolent and kind appearance.
"Oh, sister, you have such a round belly, you must be a young master." Mrs. Chen touched Wei Ninglan's stomach lightly with a handkerchief, and it sounded like she was kicked by the fetus in her belly. "Being so mischievous before he came out, he really deserves to be a child from a meritorious family."
After the words fell, the ladies sitting next to him nodded in agreement, and the room was filled with laughter.
Even if the men and women don't know, they have not landed yet, and people start to chatter and praise.
Wei Ninglan felt quite uncomfortable, so she could only smile and occasionally say a few words.
As long as others want to flatter you, even if you don't speak, the scene will not be awkward and deserted.
Seeing that Wei Ninglan was overwhelmed in the corner, Lin Chuqian quickly got up and stepped forward, interrupting with a smile, "Mother, it's time to take the medicine."
In front of outsiders, she always has to call her mother respectfully. If she calls her sister Wei, although she is close, her seniority will be messed up.
Wei Ninglan got up with a light smile as if she had been pardoned, and smiled at the wives in the room: "I'm really sorry, the doctor said that my fetus is a little unstable, and I need to take medicine every day and sleep for a while, so it's inconvenient to entertain all the ladies today .”
Saying the rhetoric prepared by the two in advance, it is not easy for everyone to stay after hearing it.
The wives hurriedly got up to bid farewell, Lin Chuqian slightly bowed her head to see them off, she thought they had already left, but when she looked up, she found that there was still one person sitting in the room.
The old man was there, and he looked at Lin Chuqian from top to bottom with his eyes. The expression of secret joy was that the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, and the more he looked at it, the more satisfied he was.
Lin Chuqian frowned slightly, feeling bad.
"Miss Lin has a dignified demeanor and an elegant temperament, which is quite in everyone's style."
Seeing her sincere praise, Lin Chuqian hurriedly stepped forward to salute. She lowered her head and was very docile and obedient, but the corners of her mouth twitched slightly.
"Mrs. Shen is overrated, but she has been polite since she was a child, so she is a bit rigid."
Lin Chuqian tried to smear her decency into a stereotyped gift.
"This child is so modest." Mrs. Shen pointed at Lin Chuqian and turned to Wei Ninglan with a smile, "It's so cute."
Wei Ninglan couldn't figure out what she meant, so she sat down again with her arms around her waist, with a smile on her face.
This Mrs. Shen is also an uncompromising master in the capital.
His father was the former prime minister and the grandfather of Zhen Youming, and his husband was a minister of humerus in the court.The degree of prominence of this family is equivalent to Gaofu.
The power is overwhelming, but it is extremely low-key, unlike the Gao Mansion who often hold banquets in the mansion.
This Mrs. Shen is famous for her peacefulness. She eats fast and recites Buddhism on weekdays. Except for going to Taoist temples, almost no one can invite her. I don't know why such a person came to Lin's mansion?
Lin Chuqian vaguely guessed her intentions in her heart, felt her eyes lingering on her body, and suddenly wanted to sit down impulsively and shake her legs rudely first, so that she could take a good look at whether she really had Everyone's style.
"Is Miss Lin married?"
Sure enough, that bad premonition came true.
Mrs. Shen held Wei Ninglan's hand and was very approachable. The latter couldn't react, and hesitantly looked up to ask Lin Chuqian's meaning. "It seems that there is no marriage yet, right? Ah Qian."
"..." Lin Chu smiled without saying a word.
"Since ancient times, parents have ordered matchmakers to say that since Ms. Lin is not yet married, she just happens to be married to a dog." Mrs. Shen smiled and asked Wei Ninglan, "I wonder what Mrs. Lin wants?"
Wei Ninglan was stunned, because of Zhen Youxiu's relationship, there were rumors that the two had a close relationship, so none of those high-ranking families really dared to take Lin Chuqian's idea.
Unexpectedly, today, Mrs. Shen became No.1.
Wei Ninglan had never expected this to happen, so she couldn't help turning her head to look at Lin Chuqian.
Seeing this, Mrs. Shen also turned her head to look at Lin Chuqian, and said to her with a smile, "Young son has just passed the age of the crown, and he has both good looks and good looks. He likes to recite poems and compose poems on weekdays. He cleans himself and has never set foot on Fireworks and Willow Lane. Said I'm really ashamed. I was always out of my mind when I came back from the palace banquet last time. I thought he was sick. After asking later, I found out that he was amazed by Miss Lin's sword dance at the palace banquet. I couldn't help but feel admiration. Today I came to the door Although it is a bit abrupt to propose a marriage specifically for Gouzi, I hope that your residence will give serious consideration to this marriage."
Mrs. Shen, on the other hand, spoke frankly and frankly about her intention of coming.
Not to mention Wei Ninglan, Lin Chuqian was caught off guard by this wave of killings.
"Thank you Madam Shen for your kindness, but I... but I have no intention of getting married yet."
How could Mrs. Shen not hear her tactful refusal, and she didn't intend to settle the matter today.
"If Ms. Lin has no plans to get married, she can make a marriage contract with my Shen family first." She made the second best choice, it seemed that she had to. "Your family can think about it carefully. Of course, if Miss Lin wants to see the dog before making a decision, it's not impossible."
"..." Lin Chuqian wanted to say that no matter how good her son was, she didn't plan to meet him, but since he had already spoken, it was hard to refuse directly. "It's the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker. After my father returns to the house and discusses it together, I will reply to Mrs. Shen."
Mrs. Shen did not continue to insist, and quickly got up to say goodbye to Wei Ninglan. When she passed by Lin Chuqian, she said lightly: "Miss Lin is smart and sensible, and she is a transparent woman. I think I can know that the dog is one of the best men in a hundred."
"Young Master Shen is naturally a dragon and phoenix among men."
Lin Chuqian bowed obediently and saw her figure disappearing behind the door, she couldn't help but take off her disguise and slumped on the chair without any image.
In any case, she never expected that someone would come to propose marriage today, it was too sudden.
"Ah Qian, it seems that Madam Shen is bound to win you." Wei Ninglan frowned worriedly.
Hearing that Mrs. Shen praised her son as if there was nothing in the sky and the earth, she presumably felt that no woman in the world could reject her son from the Shen family.
"Perhaps Mr. Shen has something special about him?"
Wei Ninglan stroked her stomach, collected herself, looked up at her and asked, "Then what do you mean?"
"Me? I think I'm still young, and I want to stay with Father and you in the mansion for a few more years."
Hearing this, Wei Ninglan couldn't help reminding: "Ah Qian, you're old enough to discuss marriage, not too young."
"..."
Lin Chuqian smiled wryly, thinking that although she was only seventeen, most women her age had already discussed marriage, and she was the only one who still regarded herself as an underage girl.
