The concubine doesn't fall in love, but crazy critics insist on holding her responsible

On the racecourse, a scene similar to before reappeared in front of Lin Zhiyu.

The man with a restrained demeanor sat upright on the horse, and the sunlight swept across his broad and spotless shoulders, cutting away the heavyness in his breath and adding a bit of elegance, as if he was ready to ride the wind back at any time, easy-going and natural.

"Let me introduce to you. This is Mr. Xiao Xuan. I met him this morning when we were riding and shooting at the racecourse. Mr. Xiao is very skilled and tireless in teaching. If you have the opportunity, you can ask him to give you some advice. "

As soon as Xiao Xuan got off his horse, Lin Shu couldn't wait to introduce him.

He didn't say that the two of them had just competed, and they were equally capable, and that he was even slightly behind, but he admired them from the bottom of his heart.

"Long time no see, how are you, Miss Lin?"

Xiao Xuan has been looking at Lin Zhiyu since he appeared just now.

It looked like a smile but not a smile, which made Lin Zhiyu very uncomfortable.

It's like prey falling within the hunting range of a ferocious beast.

When Lin Shu heard this, he was stunned, "Do you know each other?"

Lin Songyi explained boldly: "Not only do we know each other, Xiao Xuan is the son of Deputy General Xiao, but also..."

The words "savior" were swallowed without saying it. Her sister had warned her not to tell Lin Shu about her kidnapping years ago. They now have evidence that the matter was related to the second wife.

Although this matter definitely cannot be hidden from Lin Shu, it can only be hidden for a day.

Otherwise, given Lin Shu's eagerness to protect his sister, he might go crazy.

Thinking of this, Lin Songyi seemed to understand why her sister kept many things hidden from her.

"What's more? Do you know him too?"

Lin Shu's focus was on the latter. He was confused, how could he know it all?
  Lin Zhiyu smiled.

Lin Shu had been back home for a few days, and he was extremely busy every day. He either had something to do with the court, met with old friends to discuss military affairs, or went to visit the generals of the court on behalf of General Lin, and drank and drank every day. late at night.

As Xiao Xuan was not in the mansion, it was not surprising that Lin Shu had not heard about him.

"Sister and Mr. Xiao have known each other for many years."

When Lin Shu heard this, he inevitably thought elsewhere, his eyes strange, "So you and Xiao Xuan, you two..."

Lin Songyi couldn't bear it anymore and slapped her, "What are you doing here?"

Xiao Xuan is the one she wants to match up with her sister!
  She glanced at Lin Zhiyu subconsciously, and felt that it was wrong to explain her thoughts at this moment, so she kept silent.

Xiao Xuan must be interested in his sister, otherwise why would he keep staring at her lovingly?
  As long as my sister agrees, this will definitely happen. Unfortunately, my sister only has Pei Shizhi in her eyes.

Lin Shu was almost hit by Lin Songyi, and he was a little worried about his face, "No, it's not, what do you do! Yes, it's strange that Brother Xiao likes you as a dominatrix."

"Lin Shu!"

The two siblings chased each other away, kicking and fighting.

Lin Songyi deliberately brought her sister and Xiao Xuan together.

Lin Shu was very nervous and wanted to try that good horse immediately. He ran away and never came back.

The first time they met, he gained Lin Shu's trust. Xiao Xuan's ability to control people was remarkable.

Lin Zhiyu was not surprised. If this were not the case, her father and brother in her previous life would not be able to safely marry her to Xiao Xuan.

"Miss Lin, have you improved your equestrian skills recently? Do you need me to teach you something more?"

Lin Zhiyu looked at him with a smile, and her words were extremely cold, "Where did Mr. Xiao go when he left the capital?"

Both of them were smiling, looking harmonious from afar.

But unlike Lin Zhiyu who was wary, Xiao Xuan was in a really good mood.

He wasn't sure if it was affected by the dream, but whenever he saw Lin Zhiyu, he always felt an indescribable lightness and satisfaction in his heart.

Like a refreshing antidote after a drug addiction.

"Miss Lin, are you concerned about me?" Xiao Xuan deliberately teased her.

"Has Mr. Xiao always been so thick-skinned?"

It was approaching noon and the sun was getting higher. Lin Zhiyu didn't like being blinded by the sun, so she turned around and walked under the tree.

Xiao Xuan followed suit, "I don't think it is shameless and disrespectful to speak freely in front of a girl I have a crush on." Lin Zhiyu had long known that Xiao Xuan wanted to take advantage of her feelings and poison her family, but she knew it and was waiting for him to do his trick. Repeatedly, she only felt angry.

Xiao Xuan really liked to see Lin Zhiyu angry, like a bird that was about to bite someone, "Are you angry?"

Lin Zhiyu laughed and asked warmly: "You said you like me?"

"Isn't it possible? Miss Lin is as graceful and beautiful as a person in heaven. It is only human nature to yearn for her when we see her below."

Lin Zhiyu smiled coldly, "I remember Mr. Xiao once said here that the person you like must like you first. Is Mr. Xiao always so ignorant in his words?"

Xiao Xuan shook his head, "No, I don't know what to say. I'm urging Miss Lin to like me quickly. Don't keep me waiting."

Lin Zhiyu really didn't know that Xiao Xuan still had this side, like a dandy who paraded around the streets, brazen and shameless.

In this life, she was the first to reveal her disgust and defense against him. What method would he use to deceive her?

"I think Mr. Xiao has had enough good life, and he dares to covet the royal family."

Xiao Xuan seemed to be unable to feel Lin Zhiyu's avoidable disgust, "Royal family member? What? You want to be the queen?"

There was a hint of sadness in Xiao Xuan's voice, but it quickly turned into a low tone and gentleness, "Are you so sure that the one who finally takes the throne must be Pei Shizhi?"

"It doesn't matter if it's him or not, it won't be you after all."

"So you have admitted it." Xiao Xuan looked at Lin Zhiyu with his wanton eyes, and said seriously: "You do have the capital to be a mother in the world."

Xiao Xuan's eyes were frivolous, and Lin Zhiyu knew that the capital he meant was her face.

Then he said: "Not everyone is worthy of being a queen. The cold and loneliness alone is something that not only a delicate little girl like you can bear."

"Whether you can bear it or not is not Mr. Xiao's concern."

"Young Master Xiao is extremely talented. You should still remember what I said before."

Sister is not something he can imagine!
  Stop misleading my sister and use her to achieve your goals!
  "Miss Lin said a lot..." Xiao Xuan said with a playful smile, thoughtfully, "Miss Lin means that I want to be friends with you? Of course it's okay."

"I just don't know what I need to do as a friend of Miss Lin on weekdays. Eat and play with me? Miss Lin should know that spring is coming soon..."

……

After another spring rain, Pei Shizhi’s birthday came.

Because Pei Shizhi was the heir apparent by almost everyone, Pei Shizhi's birthday banquet was particularly lively. Although there was no emperor or empress present, it was still better than the eightieth birthday banquet held by Madam Xie a month ago.

No matter how noble Mrs. Xie is, she is just a woman, and she is still a woman who relies on the sacrifice of her juniors to gain honor. She is in the capital, and the eyes of those in the situation are sharp.

In terms of the large number of people attending today's meeting, even Pei Qingji, who became an idiot due to illness many years ago, also came.

Lan Sheng looked at this man from a distance and saw that he looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before.

Xu Lansheng's looking eyes were too direct. The beautiful young man looked up, but he was not looking at Lansheng, but staring at Lin Zhiyu without blinking.

As time went by, Pei Qingji not only showed no restraint, but her eyes became more intense.

This is certainly offensive.

Lan Sheng stepped forward angrily and blocked Lin Zhiyu's side.

Lin Zhiyu didn't pay attention to Pei Qingji's scrutiny. Her face had always brought her trouble no matter in her past life or in this life.

It was still some time before the banquet started, and there were many people in the hall, which made Lin Zhiyu unhappy.

"Let's go take a walk in the garden."

Lan Sheng is getting what he wants.

But by chance, Pei Qingji was surrounded and bullied by a group of young men.

The thin young man also came to the garden at some point. With his shoulders hunched and his head lowered, he was surrounded by six or seven domineering young men in colorful clothes and pushed him. One of them, only seven or eight years old, dared to follow him and kicked him with his feet. Pei Qingji's calves.

Pei Qingji was in pain, but did not raise his head and clenched his fists to endure it silently.

She looked really pitiful, but Lin Zhiyu was not a nosy person. Everyone had their own destiny, and she was currently in Prince Jianning's Mansion, which was not the place for her to cause trouble.

But before he had taken two steps, a sarcastic laugh came from behind, forcing Lin Zhiyu to stop.
