Didn't Love You Enough

Chapter 15

Xuanyuan Hancheng actually knew what Lin Jiabao was thinking. He was definitely thinking about meeting his family during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

He had been waiting for Lin Jiabao to take the initiative to ask him for help, but he never did. It seemed like his darling still didn't trust him enough.

Tomorrow was the Mid-Autumn Festival. Seeing that his darling still didn't want to talk about meeting his family, Xuanyuan Hancheng sighed. "Darling, let's talk …"

In the afternoon, Xuanyuan Hancheng didn't go to the study to deal with government affairs. Instead, he pulled Lin Jiabao, who had just woken up from his afternoon nap, over to sit on the bed.

"Darling, do you have anything you want to say to me?" Xuanyuan Hancheng asked him.

Lin Jiabao shook his head.

Xuanyuan Hancheng raised his darling's little face and looked him in the eyes. "Who am I?"

"Your Highness …" Before Lin Jiabao could finish speaking, Xuanyuan Hancheng covered his mouth with his.

His words were swallowed by his mouth. Xuanyuan Hancheng stuck his tongue into Lin Jiabao's mouth. His tongue flipped around in his mouth, entangling with his darling's fragrant tongue.

Xuanyuan Hancheng reluctantly pulled away from his darling's mouth and asked, "Darling, who am I?

Who am I to you? "

"Husband … Jia Bao's husband," Lin Jiabao obediently replied.

"Very good!

Darling, I'm your husband. What can't you tell your husband? "Xuanyuan Hancheng saw that Lin Jiabao was silent again." You still don't trust your husband, mhm … "

"No …" Lin Jiabao said.

Xuanyuan Hancheng pulled Lin Jiabao into his arms. "Darling, you have to know that there's nothing you can't do."

Xuanyuan Hancheng kissed Lin Jiabao's cheek and gently asked, "Do you want to see your family?"

Lin Jiabao heard the word "family" and immediately nodded vigorously. Tears instantly fell.

"Yes!

Yes! "

Xuanyuan Hancheng kissed away Lin Jiabao's tears. "Don't cry, baby. I'll definitely let you see your family tomorrow …"

"But … But … Palace rules …" Lin Jiabao said with a sobbing tone.

"Alright … alright, don't cry, my Guai Bao.

Look at how worried you've been these past few days and how little you've eaten. Your husband's heart aches so much.

Xuanyuan Hancheng hugged Lin Jiabao and patted his back as he spoke softly into his ear. "In the future, if you have any problems, you must tell your husband. No matter how difficult it is, your husband can help you solve it. Do you understand?"

"I … I know. You're the best!" Lin Jiabao hugged Xuanyuan Hancheng back.

Xuanyuan Hancheng was very happy. Lin Jiabao took the initiative to hug him. "If you have any difficulties in the future, don't keep them to yourself, okay?"

"Yes.

I won't in the future. "Lin Jiabao promised.

"Tomorrow, I'll let the Yuan Fu arrange everything. You don't have to worry." Xuanyuan Hancheng lovingly kissed Lin Bao's red nose.

On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Lin Dazhuang, Lin Jiawen, and Qin Kaixing arrived early to wait in front of the Five Outer Palaces.

Many family members of the palace servants had already gathered at the palace gates.

When the time came, the palace gates opened and a group of guards came out to maintain order.

The leader of the guards began to announce the names of the palaces. Every time a palace's name was announced, a group of palace servants would be released.

After the palace servants came out, they all looked for their family members. Some of them immediately ran over when they saw their family members. Some of them hugged each other, crying and laughing. Everyone was very envious.

The family members who hadn't arrived pricked up their ears to listen to the leader of the guards announce the names of the palaces.

Lin Jiawen and the others waited for half an hour before they finally heard the leader of the guards announce the name of the Palace of Eternal Life.

Lin Jiawen and the others all stretched their necks to look at the palace gates. They just kept looking.

Even after the leader of the guards announced the names of other palaces, they still didn't see Lin Jiabao.

After waiting for a while, they still didn't see Lin Jiabao. Lin Dazhuang was a bit anxious.

"Why hasn't Jia Bao come out yet?"

Qin Kaixing said to Lin Dazhuang: "Father-in-law, don't worry. I'll go ask."

At this time, the leader of the guards stopped announcing the names. Lin Dazhuang and the others saw this and walked over.

"Lord Imperial Bodyguard, may I ask if the palace servants of the Palace of Eternal Life have all come out?" Qin Kaixing stepped forward and asked.

The leader of the guards looked at the three of them and said: "They came out a long time ago."

Lin Dazhuang was a bit anxious after hearing this, "Is there a leak?

My family's child hasn't come out yet? "

Qin Kaixing stuffed a bag of silver into the leader of the guards' hands, "Lord Imperial Bodyguard, can you help us check? My younger brother sent a letter saying that he's working in the Palace of Eternal Life."

The leader of the guards then looked at the name list, "The Palace of Eternal Life has been released. What's your younger brother's name?"

"My younger brother's name is Lin Anzhu in the palace. I'll have to trouble Lord Imperial Bodyguard to help us check." Lin Jiawen asked.

"Lin Anzhu … … This name isn't in the Palace of Eternal Life's name list. Did you remember wrongly?" The leader of the guards showed them the Palace of Eternal Life's name list.

Lin Jiawen quickly skimmed through it. Indeed, his younger brother's name wasn't there.

He was also very anxious. How could his younger brother's name not be there?

It was clearly written in the letter that he was working in the Empress's Palace of Eternal Life.

The leader of the guards thought for a bit, then said to them: "Perhaps he was transferred to another palace. You guys wait a bit longer. In a bit, there will be a few palace servants coming out."

Recently, they hadn't heard of any palace servants being punished. However, the name Lin Anzhu was somewhat familiar. They seemed to have heard it somewhere before.

When Lin Dazhuang and the others heard this, they could only thank him. They continued to wait on the side. The three of them felt somewhat uneasy.

Not long after, a young eunuch ran to the palace gate and showed the palace plaque to the leader of the guards. After that, he said a few words. The leader of the guards pointed at the place where Lin Dazhuang and the others were standing.

They saw the young eunuch run over to them.

"Are the three of you Lin Anzhu's family?" Yuan Qing asked a bit breathlessly.

"We are Lin Anzhu's family. May I ask if my younger brother has been delayed by something?" Lin Jiawen asked Yuan Qing.

"Yes, yes. The three of you, please come with me. This isn't the place to talk." Yuan Qing first said vaguely, indicating for Lin Dazhuang and the others to follow him.

Lin Dazhuang and the others had some misgivings in their hearts, so they followed Yuan Qing.

Afterwards, Yuan Qing brought them to a large restaurant. Yuan Qing showed a small plaque to the shopkeeper. Afterwards, the shopkeeper personally led them to the Sky Room 1.

The Sky Room 1 was very large. It had an inner and outer room.

The outer room had a large round table that could seat ten people.

The inner room was a place to receive guests. The decorations were exquisite and elegant. The furnishings were exquisite. The calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall were the work of famous artists.

After Yuan Qing invited Lin Dazhuang and the others to sit, Lin Jiawen couldn't help but ask: "This Gonggong, why did you bring us here?"

"This little one is the Yuan Qing of the Crown Prince's Eastern Palace. Please don't worry. You will be able to see Young Master Lin very soon." Yuan Qing's attitude was gentle and polite as he spoke.

"Young Master Lin?" Lin Dazhuang, Lin Jiawen, and Qin Kaixing all cried out in surprise.

"The three of you probably don't know. On the fifth of last month, Young Master Lin Dazhuang was bestowed by the Empress to be the Crown Prince's attendant. Now that Young Master Lin is on the Imperial Jade Butterfly, isn't she a young master?

Xu Zhou and Pei County are relatively far away. The news was delayed. I'm afraid that they haven't received the news yet. "Yuan Qing explained.

When Lin Dazhuang and the others heard Yuan Qing's news, they were very shocked.

"How could this be?

How could this be?

Jia Bao is still too young!

This … "Lin Dazhuang stood up uncontrollably.

His precious Shun 'er had unexpectedly become the Crown Prince's attendant. When Lin Dazhuang heard this, he wasn't happy at all. Instead, he was very sad.

Although the Crown Prince couldn't be compared to other people, an attendant was actually equivalent to a maidservant of a wealthy family.

Alas … the Crown Prince was the future emperor. In the future, he would have three palaces and six courtyards. How could Jia Bao's life be good in the future … Why was Jia Bao's life so hard …

Lin Jiawen and Qin Kaixing's hearts were also in a perilous situation.

Lin Jiawen remembered when Qian Qingkun had told him about the Crown Prince's affairs. At the time, he had dismissed it with a laugh and didn't take it to heart.

He didn't expect this attendant to be his younger brother. His younger brother was just over 14 years old. He was still so young and adorable, but compared to the various beauties in the palace, he definitely wasn't outstanding.

His younger brother had been naive and kind since he was young. He wasn't scheming.

Even the wives and concubines of ordinary families would constantly fight for favor, let alone the most powerful imperial family. How would he be able to adapt to the scheming and scheming life in the palace in the future?

Lin Jiawen was deeply worried about this.

Qin Kaixing was also astonished. He didn't expect his younger brother, Qian Qingkun, to be so lucky.

He had won the favor of Empress Empress and the Crown Prince.

But when he thought about Lin Jiabao's temperament, he was also very worried.

Yuan Qing saw that the three of them were sad and worried that they would misunderstand, so he said to them: "The three of you can rest assured. Young Master Lin is living very well in the Crown Prince's Eastern Palace.

The Crown Prince is very fond of Young Master Lin. It's as if he's afraid of melting in his mouth. This is something he has never done with anyone else.

Young Master Lin is now the number one person in the Crown Prince's Eastern Palace. "

Lin Dazhuang and the others were still worried when they heard the young eunuch's words.

They were still worried and silently waited for Lin Jiabao's arrival.

Xuanyuan Hancheng returned from morning court with the Yuan Fu. As soon as he arrived at Pingle Park, he saw the Jia Bao waiting for him at the entrance of the courtyard.

Xuanyuan Hancheng chuckled. Ever since the Jia Bao found out that he could meet his family, he had been in a state of excitement.

Last night, he had to coax him for a long time to get him to sleep.

Today, he was eagerly waiting for his arrival. This was a treatment that he had never received before. Just thinking about it made him a little jealous.

Lin Jiabao was dressed up very nicely today. Shu Ya and Shu Qing knew that the young master was going to meet his family today, so they specially dressed him up.

Lin Jiabao was wearing a sapphire blue robe. The embroidery on it was very beautiful, and the cufflinks and collar were inlaid with gold thread.

It made his skin look sparkling and translucent. It was very dazzling.

Lin Jiabao's hair was tied up with a jade hairpin, and there was a belt around his waist that was decorated with all kinds of gemstones.

He looked exactly like a rich family's young master.

Xuanyuan Hancheng couldn't take his eyes off Lin Jiabao. "Darling, you're dressed up very well today.

The clothes from Splendid Embroidery Workshop are very good. Next time, make a few more. "

"Yes." Shu Qing and Shu Ya replied in unison.

Splendid Embroidery Workshop was the imperial family's clothing workshop. There were many outstanding embroiderers from all over the country. They specialized in making clothes for the Emperor, Empress, and the princes.

Only those with high status in the palace had the right to enjoy this treatment. Ordinary concubines and nobles could only be prepared by the Imperial Household's Clothing Bureau.

Ever since Lin Jiabao was by his side, Xuanyuan Hancheng let Jia Bao enjoy the best of everything.

Empress was in charge of the imperial harem, so she naturally knew about Xuanyuan Hancheng's actions and understood his intentions.

Therefore, she never interfered with the needs of Pingle Park.

This had a deeper meaning in the eyes of the people in the palace. As long as they weren't stupid, they would understand how much Lin Jiabao was loved by Empress and His Highness the Crown Prince.

This time, when Lin Jiabao left the palace, Xuanyuan Hancheng sent the Yuan Fu to follow Lin Jiabao. He also arranged for two imperial bodyguards to escort him. In addition, Jia Bao's original two Shadow Guards were also present.

The meeting place was the Fuyuan Building in the imperial city. It was also the property of his subordinates, so there shouldn't be any problems.

Lin Jiabao and Xuanyuan Hancheng boarded the carriage. The carriage slowly drove towards the palace gates and smoothly left the palace.

"Darling, you can spend a day with your family today. You can come back after eating dinner with your family.

How is it? Are you happy? "Xuanyuan Hancheng and Lin Jiabao interlocked their fingers and said softly.

"Really?

That's great?

I haven't seen them in a long time. I really, really miss them.

I have so many things to say to them. "He didn't know which family would come to see him today.

"As long as you're happy." Xuanyuan Hancheng kissed Lin Jiabao's little mouth.

Lin Jiabao was now very used to Xuanyuan Hancheng's kisses. Sometimes, he would also learn to respond. His darling's initiative always made Xuanyuan Hancheng very happy.

The carriage quickly stopped in front of the Fuyuan Building. "Go. I'll have Yuan Fu follow you and pick you up in the evening." Xuanyuan Hancheng then instructed Yuan Fu, "Take care of him carefully. Don't make any mistakes."

"Yes.

Please rest assured, Your Highness the Crown Prince. "Yuan Fu helped Lin Jiabao out of the carriage. Two imperial bodyguards followed behind them and entered the restaurant.

Lin Jiabao followed Yuan Fu to Sky Room 1. He couldn't help but excitedly push open the door.

Lin Jiabao finally saw the family he had been missing for the past two years.

"Father!

Eldest Brother!

Eldest Brother-in-law! "Lin Jiabao saw them and immediately went up to hug his father.

"Jia Bao, I really missed you guys!"

"Jia Bao, we also missed you. Come, let Father take a good look at you." Lin Dazhuang's burly man's eyes were also slightly red.

The family was very excited to see each other. It took a while for them to calm down.

Yuan Fu and Yuan Qing took the opportunity to leave, leaving only two imperial bodyguards to guard the door.

After the outsiders left, Lin Dazhuang couldn't wait to ask, "Jia Bao, how have you been these past two years?

How did you become the Crown Prince's personal attendant? "

"I've been very well these past two years. I just miss you guys very much."

Lin Jiabao told him the general situation from when he entered the palace until now. He also didn't know how he became the Crown Prince's personal attendant.

"I don't know how, but I received an imperial decree from the Empress, and then I became the Crown Prince's personal attendant."

Lin Jiawen looked at his little brother Jia Bao. He didn't know how to explain it himself, so he secretly sighed. "His Highness the Crown Prince, he … … treats you well?"

"En!

His Highness the Crown Prince treats me very well! "Lin Jiabao nodded vigorously.

His Highness the Crown Prince is Jia Bao's husband. His husband said that he liked him very much. He also liked his husband very, very much.

Lin Jiawen looked at his little brother's adoration for the Crown Prince, and his heart became more and more uncomfortable.

Lin Jiabao is still young. He doesn't understand what it means to be the Crown Prince's personal attendant.

His little brother's thoughts are simple. Look at him, it's like he thinks the Crown Prince is an ordinary family's husband. "

To the side, Qin Kaixing looked at Lin Jiabao's eyes when he talked about the Crown Prince. He also sighed in his heart. This child has probably already fallen for the Crown Prince.

Lin Jiabao was young and cute, and the Crown Prince liked him very much. However, it was hard to say what would happen in the future. Moreover, Lin Jiabao was a Husband … …

Lin Dazhuang thought for a moment, then asked Lin Jiabao, "The Crown Prince, he … … Does His Highness the Crown Prince have many women by his side?"

Lin Jiabao was stunned when he heard this. He said blankly, "Women?"

"Does His Highness the Crown Prince have many concubines by his side?" Lin Dazhuang looked at Lin Jiabao's expression and felt very anxious for him.

"I don't know if there are many. I've never seen any." Lin Jiabao thought for a moment before answering.

"Then what about the Crown Princess?

You've never seen her either? "Lin Jiawen also asked.

"I've never seen her.

His Highness the Crown Prince said that the Crown Princess is sick, so there's no need to see her. "Lin Jiabao had also asked His Highness the Crown Prince if he wanted to pay respects to the Crown Princess.

His Highness the Crown Prince said that he only needed to pay respects to Her Highness the Empress.

"This … … This doesn't make sense." Lin Jiawen and Qin Kaixing looked at each other.

"However, His Highness the Crown Prince often takes me to pay respects to Her Highness the Empress." Lin Jiabao thought for a moment before speaking.

Lin Dazhuang, Lin Jiawen, and Qin Kaixing all nodded when they heard this. Paying respects to Her Highness the Empress was more important.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door. "Young Master Lin, it's time for lunch. Young Master, please eat with your family first." Yuan Fu came in and bowed to Lin Jiabao.

"Okay." Lin Jiabao responded.

Then, under Yuan Qing's quick arrangements, a table full of dishes appeared in front of them.

After everything was arranged, they quickly left.

"Young Master, please enjoy."

After they left, Lin Dazhuang, Lin Dazhuang, and Lin Jiabao no longer felt restrained and gradually relaxed.

Lin Jiabao and the others ate lunch together and chatted together.

Lin Jiabao told them what he did every day in the Crown Prince's Eastern Palace.

Lin Jiawen and the others were very gratified when they heard that His Highness the Crown Prince had specially arranged for a famous scholar to teach Lin Jiabao calligraphy and painting. It seemed that His Highness the Crown Prince really liked Jia Bao.

Lin Jiabao also asked his father, brother, and brother-in-law about what happened at home.

When he heard brother-in-law say that his eldest sister gave birth to a pair of twins last year, he was very happy.

He also heard that his eldest brother passed the county level exam at the beginning of this year, and that his sister-in-law was going to give birth next month. He wondered if it was a nephew or a niece.

Just thinking about it made him happy for his eldest brother …

Lin Jiabao heard his father say that the money he brought back was used to expand the house and buy farmland.

Lin Jiabao listened with great interest as his father and the others talked about the trivial matters of the family.

Happy times of reunion always passed very quickly. Not long after dinner, Yuan Qing knocked on the door and reported, "It's getting late.

The carriage to pick up Young Master Lin has arrived. "

Lin Jiabao and Lin Dazhuang reluctantly said their goodbyes at the entrance of the restaurant.

Yuan Qing went forward to help Lin Jiabao into the carriage. After Lin Jiabao got into the carriage, he discovered that His Highness the Crown Prince was also there. Xuanyuan Hancheng saw his darling's red eyes and helped him pull open the curtain. Lin Jiabao stuck his head out of the carriage window and waved goodbye to his father and the others.

Lin Dazhuang and the others also waved goodbye to Lin Jiabao as they watched the carriage slowly drive away.

They didn't put down their hands until the carriage was out of sight.

"His Highness the Crown Prince … I think he was in the carriage just now …" Lin Jiawen saw the faint silhouette of a tall man when Lin Jiabao got into the carriage.

And that man should be His Highness the Crown Prince …

Lin Dazhuang and Qin Kaixing were very surprised when they heard this. They were too busy saying goodbye to Jia Bao and didn't notice.

His Highness the Crown Prince … they were actually so close to the future emperor of the Xuanyuan Empire …
