"What a Su Lin, you are so arrogant!"

Unexpectedly, when Su Lin teased this, Sun Lingxiang started to ask for guilt, "You have been back to Kyoto for a few days! You haven't come to the palace to see this princess, but she has been closed to the guests for several days. Do you really don't take this princess to heart?"

It turned out that since Sun Lingxiang heard that Su Lin had returned to the capital, she had been looking forward to Su Lin coming to the palace to visit her every day. Even once, Sun Lingxiang had a shameless attitude to ask the emperor whether she wanted to summon Su Lin.

Unfortunately, Su Lin not only did not take the initiative to visit the palace, but instead closed the door and became a united man. There was no news for many days.

The eldest princess Sun Lingxiang, who could not bear it, came to visit her house several times.

Of course, as the eldest princess of the entire Wu Kingdom, she naturally would not show up in public and visit Su Lin, the Duke of the Town, very high-profile, so every time she comes, she pretends to be a man and visits as Su Lin’s friend.

As a result, every time they were blocked by Su Lin's housekeeper and servants.

Today, it can be said that it was Sun Lingxiang's third visit, but she found that Su Lin was still leaving the guest behind closed doors. This time she couldn't bear it anymore.

It is even more difficult for the eldest princess of a country to see Su Lin, the Duke of Zhenguo, than to see the emperor.

Therefore, the eldest princess Sun Lingxiang simply showed her identity. In this way, the servants in the doorman naturally did not dare to stop the eldest princess again, but they could not bring her into the mansion rashly, so in a dilemma, they had to report to Su Lin first.

However, when she saw Su Lin sitting leisurely in the front hall and drinking tea, the eldest princess Sun Lingxiang certainly had to show off her temperament so that Su Lin could know that Sun Lingxiang was not so easy to deal with.

"Your Highness, Princess, forgive me!"

Seeing Sun Lingxiang's appearance, Su Lin simply started acting. "The student is studying hard now, preparing for the national exam. He then closed his door to thank the guests, but he didn't know that His Highness the Princess has been repeatedly turned away."

"Study hard in the window? Su Lin, you can say that you have such a big Duke's mansion. Do you have the courage to say that you are studying hard in the window?" Sun Lingxiang sat opposite Su Lin without any hesitation, picked up the tea and said while savoring it.

Su Lin smiled slightly and continued, "Your Highness, this is a bad word! The so-called hard study in the window is just about the state of mind. He adheres to the attitude and state of mind that he is not influenced by external objects and devotes himself to studying the books of sages. No matter what I am in, the thatched house of the broken house or the residence of Guangsha, what is the difference? Regardless of the cold and heat, holding a book of sages in his hand, he reads..."

"Sulin, I didn't expect that you were still as quick as you didn't see me for many days. I can't tell you, but if you don't see me behind closed doors, it's your fault."

The eldest princess Sun Lingxiang simply acted like a scoundrel and pouted and said to Su Lin, "You must compensate me!"

Seeing this, Su Lin smiled and had expected it. He spread his hands and said, "Your Highness, you are trying to cheat me!"

"So what?"

Sun Lingxiang did not defend herself.

"Is it appropriate for you, His Highness, Princess Wu, to blackmail me, this little juren?" Su Lin said again.

"Why is it not suitable? Su Lin, your holy power magic is so easy to use! You only say that you are a juren's literary position, why not say that you are the Duke of Zhenguo of Wu? The Prince of the Su family of the semi-saint family? The Unparalleled genius who wrote many poems on Zhenguo in succession?"

Obviously, Sun Lingxiang is not a vegetarian either. She blinked her eyebrows and stared at Su Lin and said.

"Forget it! Your Highness, Princess, I'm afraid of you."

Su Lin shook his head and continued to ask, "What's the point of looking for me in such a hurry?"

"whee!"

The eldest princess Sun Lingxiang smiled instead, "It's nothing, but last time you helped me get the soul of "The Art of War" in the book grave. This princess came here to thank me specifically."

"I dare not take this!"

Su Lin smiled.

Sun Lingxiang: "What's there to be that I dare not take it? When I came back, I told my brother about what I saw in the book grave. The brother kept praising you, saying that you are the pillar of the future of Wu Kingdom. But I said..."

Su Lin: "What did you say?"

Sun Lingxiang smiled and said, "I'll say! I said you are the pillar of Wu now, why should you wait until the future?"

"The students admire the eldest princess's talent!" Su Lin bowed and smiled.

"It's just that the emperor is very stingy. I want to ask him for some reward to you, but the emperor waved his hand. Su Lin, do you think my emperor is a stingy person?" Sun Lingxiang said again.

When Su Lin heard this, he laughed and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your love. However, the rewards His Majesty has given me are enough, and I'm afraid I can't think of anything else to reward me."

Su Lin could only smile bitterly for this. He wrote so many poems about the country-controlling state for Wu, which was of great help to the people's livelihood of the entire Wu Kingdom.

So much so that the current national destiny of Wu is at least 20% higher than before, and it is still improving. This also made Su Lin compensate for the last time when neon lights devoured the national destiny, and he felt a little relieved.

His Tao is that a gentleman is not a weapon and does not want to become a weapon in the hands of a king, but this does not mean that he is unwilling to contribute to the people of Wu.

On the contrary, Su Lin planned to take Wu as the foundation, implement some of his ideas and practice his own way.

"Anyway, the emperor is just a stingy guy."

After drinking a cup of tea, Sun Lingxiang's eyes turned around and said, "Su Lin, I have never been to your Duke's Mansion. Although it is not as good as the imperial palace, it is also an elegant villa. Why not... accompany me around?"

"It's better to obey your orders than to be respectful!"

Su Lin also stood up and said, but he knew in his heart that the eldest princess Sun Lingxiang had come over for no reason. It must have been not so simple to thank him, and he must have had other ideas.

Sure enough, when Su Lin accompanied Sun Lingxiang to wander around the huge Duke's Mansion, he found Sun Lingxiang with thief eyes, completely absent-minded, looking around...

"I said Princess! My Duke's Mansion has no moonlight in the lakes and ponds. They are all simple landscapes and nothing to see. Otherwise... let's continue to go back to the front hall to have tea and exchange ideas?"

Su Lin smiled slightly and said.

After all, Su Lin did not stay in the entire Duke's Mansion for a long time. Most of the gardens and landscapes were taken care of by the servants, which is at ordinary standards. Not to mention the imperial gardens of the palace, the residences of ordinary ministers and families were specially invited to farmer's scholars to take care of flowers and plants.
