Chapter 871

Ling Xiao was a little embarrassed.

In fact, the original owner only had a pitiful 3 taels of silver, which was only enough to pay a deposit.

This courtyard is located in the bustling area of ​​the inner city where land is very expensive, not far from the imperial palace, and the market price is around 10 taels.

However, Ling Xiao consulted Zhao Ji and prescribed him a very effective prescription. He had paid himself a full 8 taels of silver.

So this house was indeed earned by Ling Xiao by his own ability.

Of course, this butler, Zhang Bo, was specially arranged by Zhao Ji. Before Ling Xiao, he just asked Zheng Yong, the accountant gentleman, to go to the Renyazi Market to buy some servants and maidservants for him.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Ji would meddle in her own business and help her secretly, sending a butler with high professionalism and a dozen maids and servants.

Ling Xiao didn't tell Liang Dong the truth for the time being, and said with a smile: "Father! I pawned jewelry and got a lot of money, enough to buy this house. You don't have to worry."

Liang Dong thought of the wealth and wealth of General Zhen Guo's mansion, but he didn't get to the bottom of it.

After all, Ling Xiao is the direct heir of the General's Mansion, and the jewelry she usually uses is also some high-end jewelry. If she pawns it in Jinyufang, it is estimated that she can indeed get a lot of money in exchange.

That night, Ling Xiao slept in the Qinghe Garden to the east.

Open the window, and you can see an exquisite and interesting lotus pond. In the pond, the lotus flowers are graceful and graceful, with green leaves like a cover. There is a hexagonal pavilion on the bank. Luoxiaxuan.

the next day.

Liang Dong got up to wash up, and a few neat-looking servants respectfully waited on him to change his clothes and eat, without the slightest neglect or neglect in the general's mansion before.

Liang Dong originally planned to have breakfast with Ling Xiao, but Ah Liu told him that it might not be convenient for Miss to exercise in the yard early in the morning.

Liang Dong also knew that men and women were different, and there were several door openings between Luoxia Pavilion and Qinghe Garden, so they couldn't just get together casually.

Liang Dong was a little disappointed.

At this moment, Uncle Zhang, the housekeeper, came in and handed him a list of banquets for the guests: "Master! Today is the young lady's wedding ceremony, the ingredients for the banquet have been prepared, and the master only needs to arrange the list of guests."

Liang Dong suddenly lifted his spirits, and smiled pleasantly: "Uncle Zhang! Did you even notice this?"

Uncle Zhang smiled neither humble nor condescending: "Master! In fact, many people know about Miss's ceremony, such as... Miss's fiancé, General Yu Wenhao."

Liang Dong was taken aback, and smiled: "I was negligent! I'll write the guest list! By the way, I have to go to the palace to be on duty today, so I didn't have time to ask Mu for a vacation."

Zhang Bo said with a smile: "Master, write me the list first, and I will arrange the banquet post. Tonight, I will hold the young lady's wedding ceremony in the Dry Lotus Garden."

When Liang Dong saw how shrewd and agile Zhang Bo was, he sighed in his heart.

He spent many years in the general's mansion, except for shrinking and hiding behind others, he didn't seem to have learned any really useful skills?

After Liang Dong went out, he remembered that as Ling Xiao's father, he should give her a commemorative gift at the Jiji ceremony.

When he came to the palace, Liang Dong habitually went to the library of the Hanlin Academy first.

When the young attendants saw him, they rushed forward and asked, "Liang Zhuanxiu? I don't know what your current official position is? How should we call you?"

"I heard that His Majesty left you in the imperial study, is this true?"

"Is that painting of your daughter's Begonia sleeping in spring really so flattering?"

Liang Dong suddenly became the focus of the crowd, he was a little stage fright, he made a random excuse and said with a smile: "I, I am now walking in the imperial study, and I don't have any special official position. Your Majesty just thinks that I am honest..."

Before he could finish explaining, Grand Scholar Han came over from not far away, snorted coldly, and sarcastically said, "It's really a trick! Your Majesty is just being soft-hearted for a while, and you are just bewildered!"

Everyone stared at Liang Dong with mocking eyes, as if in their eyes, Liang Dong was still the timid, cowardly and bullied wimp he used to be.

Liang Dong didn't explode out of nowhere, he didn't confront Master Han, he tidied up his personal belongings, and left as if fleeing.

Came to the Royal Study Room of Huaqing Palace.

The eunuch Su Mo saw Liang Dong's trembling appearance, and immediately comforted him: "Master Liang! Why are you so flustered?"

Of course Liang Dong didn't dare to tell him that he was despised by Han Dashi.

He faltered and replied: "It's okay! It's just that the big sun outside is a little bit hot."

Su Mo recalled that last night, Zhao Ji took Ling Xiao's picture of Begonia sleeping in spring and looked at it for a long time. He knew it well, and deliberately approached him: "If you get sunburned, Your Majesty will feel sorry for you! Come!"

A little eunuch rushed over.

Su Mo asked the little eunuch to fetch the golden toad ointment to prevent sunburn, and generously gave it to Liang Dong.

Liang Dong's expression froze immediately.

He was just being polite and perfunctory, but he didn't expect this guy to take it seriously?

Liang Dong didn't know whether he should accept it or not, Su Mo ordered the little eunuch to put this bottle of golden toad ointment in Liang Dong's personal belongings, which was considered a little scheming.

Being on duty in the Imperial Study Room, the errands are not too heavy.

According to Su Mo's suggestion, Liang Dong sorted out the memorials and briefings for the past two days.

In addition to Liang Dong, there are several other emperor's close ministers in the imperial study room. When they saw Liang Dong, a little-known little editor, they didn't take it seriously at first, and quite ignored it.

At some point, Zhao Ji returned to Huaqing Palace, and according to his habit, he came to work in the study.

Liang Dong carefully hid in the corner, not daring to show off or expose himself.

Zhao Ji was busy for a while, but he remembered Liang Dong, so he ordered the eunuch to call Liang Dong over.

Su Mo reached out and pinched Liang Dong, leaned into his ear and warned in a low voice: "Your Majesty is in a bad mood, don't talk too much, just listen."

Liang Dong bowed gratefully, and replied: "Yes, yes, yes!"

Liang Dong came to the desk in the imperial study room, followed the etiquette of courtiers, and knelt down on one knee to salute.

Seeing him, Zhao Ji was in a moody mood, and tentatively smiled and said, "Your daughter, is there going to be a wedding ceremony tonight?"

Liang Dong was taken aback for a moment, not quite understanding why the emperor paid attention to this matter.

He didn't bother to get to the bottom of it, and insisted on the principle of saying more than wrong, and replied: "Yes."

When Zhao Ji thought of Ling Xiao, his heart suddenly became very soft, very soft, and even a little unreal like floating in the clouds.

"Since the government has something to do, I will give you a rest today!"

Liang Dong replied subconsciously: "Yes!"

The great eunuch Su Mo reminded: "Master Liang? Why don't you hurry up and thank you?"

Liang Dong hastily saluted politely.

Coming out of the imperial study, Liang Dong wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, feeling more and more that being with you is like being with a tiger.

The ancients never lied to me!
In the imperial study.

Zhao Ji quickly browsed through the thick memorial briefing, and called Su Mo to him: "I'm going out of the palace tonight, you can make arrangements for sleeping and sleeping."

As soon as Su Mo guessed, he knew that the emperor was going out of the palace to find the Miss Wei family who disturbed his mind, so he replied with a smile: "Your Majesty! The old slave will make arrangements! It's just that you have to bring a suit of clothes when you go out of the palace. one's gift."
