Ning Chen Ling Xiao

In the Yasukuni Mansion, Wei Zheng ordered people to prepare tea sets, glanced at Ling Xiao, and said calmly: "I have gained a lot of heroism in a few months. It seems that I have gained experience, not bad."

"Yes, thanks to the people my uncle sent me." Ling Xiao and Wei Zhengfu sat kneeling on the couch together, Ling Xiao looked at Wei Zhengfu Bucha, and said with a smile, "I don't know what Qin Long and those people will do in the future Are you sending it back to Uncle?"

Wei Zhengfu poured a small cup of tea for Ling Xiao, Ling Xiao quickly took it with both hands, Wei Zhengfu said in a deep voice, "No need, I told them when I sent them to you, and I will treat you as master from now on, although No more wars, you don’t have a shortage of manpower there.”

When it came to the point, Ling Xiao sipped the tea carefully and said softly: "Yes, the battle after returning to the court will be more difficult to fight."

Wei Zhengfu knew that Ling Xiao was here for a showdown, so he put down the tea set and said coldly, "You want to help Feng'er fight for reserves."

"Yes." Ling Xiao bowed his head, Wei Zhengfu put down the teacup, and said mockingly: "You think you are doing it for his own good? Have you asked Feng'er what he means? He doesn't want to be a prince or emperor at all, or is it all that matters?" Is it to satisfy your own ambition?"

Ling Xiao drank the remaining tea in the cup in one gulp, and said seriously: "I really didn't ask the emperor's grandson's opinion, but the result was just what my uncle thought. I didn't want him to think too much, so I kept it from him. "Ling Xiao is completely shameless, "So if the emperor's grandson finds out in the future, it should be the uncle who told him that I and the emperor's grandson have been together for many years, please be merciful and don't break the marriage. .”

Even if you don't hurt me, you still have to cherish Chu Yifeng, Ling Xiaofeng's eyes are slightly raised, anyway, you know best how much your precious nephew loves me.

Wei Zhengfu was almost choked by Ling Xiao, Ling Xiao slowed down his voice, and continued in a soft and pleasant voice: "Uncle has been in the army for a long time and doesn't know about the deep palace affairs, Prince Hui is narrow-minded, and has long been unable to tolerate the emperor's grandson, and now the emperor's grandson After returning from victory, if you are dissatisfied with the weak crown, you will be crowned king, and all kinds of rewards will be reflected in the eyes of King Hui, can uncle guarantee that King Hui will accommodate the emperor's grandson?"

"I disdain Prince Hui's various insidious tricks. They are all unworthy things, so I won't tell my uncle one by one. Now that the emperor's prestige is getting higher and higher, can uncle guarantee that King Hui will treat the emperor well after he ascends the throne?"

Wei Zhengfu was silent for a moment, then said: "I will protect Feng'er and never let him suffer."

"Please forgive me, uncle. My uncle is more than [-] years old. Even though he is a talented person, he doesn't care about the affairs behind him." Ling Xiao looked as usual, "But I want to be with the emperor and grandson for the rest of my life, so I can't say too much Think about it."

Ling Xiao knows that Chu Yifeng has been unknown in front of the prince for these years. There should be reasons for Wei Zhengfu's teaching. Said: "In the future, when the crown prince ascends to the great treasure, once the establishment of the crown prince is put on the agenda, the first thing that King Hui will do is to kill the emperor and grandson. Even if the emperor and grandson do not fight or snatch, I am afraid that King Hui will not have the capacity to let people like this A meritorious brother stands in the court."

He still doesn't want Chu Yifeng to be emperor!If it wasn't for saving his life, who would want to sit in that seat, just that idiot, wouldn't he just worry about doing those bad things in the emperor's court?Even my own uncle doesn't believe that I have no selfish intentions, let alone others?This treacherous hat cannot be escaped, and he has done all such thankless things, but it is all for Chu Yifeng.

"Instead of being given death for no reason at that time, it's better to preemptively strike." Ling Xiao bowed, "Please ask uncle to help."

Wei Zhengfu fixedly looked at Ling Xiao. Among his nephews, Ling Xiao was the one he couldn't see through the most. First, he kept a low profile and tried his best to win the favor of the Holy Majesty and Donggong, but later he didn't hug Chu Yijin's thigh, instead. Come over and suddenly go all out to work for Chu Yifeng.

In the past, Wei Zhengfu only thought that Ling Xiao was hypocritical and slick, and Wei Zhengfu disliked this kind of person the most, but now he looked like he was all for Chu Yifeng, which was really suspicious, and he said for a long time: "What do you think?" ...You want to be with Feng'er for the rest of your life? Feng'er won't marry or leave heirs for you, can you?"

Ling Xiao nodded: "It is enough for my nephew to have the emperor's grandson in this life, there is nothing else I can ask for."

"Then remember what you said about court affairs... I am your uncle and Feng'er's uncle, so naturally I won't treat him badly."

This is the promise, Ling Xiao nodded and smiled, and left before Wei Zhengfu saw off the guests.

It was already Youshi when we returned to the palace. The eunuch of Tingfeng Pavilion waited for a long time and finally waited for Ling Xiao, bowed and said: "The King of England has sent people to invite the young master several times, saying that dinner is waiting for the young prince." Let's eat together."

"Well, I see." Ling Xiao said as he went into his room, changed into his homely clothes, and went to the Begonia Courtyard.

Chu Yifeng had been waiting for a long time, and when he saw Ling Xiao came and ordered someone to cook the crabs, he said with a smile: "A few baskets of crabs were sent outside today, but I didn't send them to Tingfeng Pavilion because the fourth child couldn't eat them. Eat here."

There was warmth in Ling Xiao's heart, he was relieved by Wei Zhengfu's sneering words today, no matter what others think of him, it is enough for Chu Yifeng to treat him wholeheartedly.

Not long after, the waiter brought up the cooked big crabs, Ling Xiao ordered people to step back, and he and Chu Yifeng sat talking and eating together.

"What did you do today?" Chu Yifeng is not very good at handling such delicate things. Ling Xiao picked a crab with a round navel and opened it, put the crab roe in a small plate, mixed it with sauce and vinegar, and handed it to Chu Yifeng, saying: "If you can't get it, then Don't stick your hands, don't scratch your hands."

Then he took a small golden hammer and knocked on the clip again, and said with a smile: "What else can I do, but I went back to Yilie's house to get some things. Lingzhi was worried about me a few days ago, and it was very difficult, so I told her again Let's talk for a while."

Ling Xiao's subordinates were dexterous, and he picked out a plate of meat with a little bit of sauce, and handed it to Chu Yifeng: "Eat it quickly, it will make your stomach hurt if you eat it cold." Chu Yifeng felt warm in his heart under the care of Ling Xiao, and he was vague while eating. Said: "Eat quickly too..."

Ling Xiao ate it with a smile, and Chu Yifeng poured the hot sweet-scented osmanthus wine and said with a smile, "Drink it, this wine is not intoxicating, it's quite fragrant." He said with a smile: "It's not convenient now, everything is served by portion For example, no matter how good the crab is, I will only give it to these, and after leaving the palace, we can eat whatever you like every day, and you can drink during the day."

Ling Xiao couldn't help laughing: "You go out of the palace just to eat casually and think beautifully. When the time comes, you will still come as usual and eat what you love every day. You will get sick within a year." Chu Yijin smiled naively : "Then listen to you."

The two of them are like a couple who have been together for many years, there is no sweet talk, and the conversation is a daily matter, and there is no earth-shattering sea dry stone, but like this sweet-scented osmanthus brew, the entrance is peaceful, the aftertaste is lingering, and the mellow fragrance lasts for a long time.

When talking about Ling Zhi, Chu Yifeng thought for a while and said, "I remember my cousin is the second son of Mr. Shi from Jiangnan's Shi family, right? I've heard of Shi Mingcheng. He said that he is a character and his articles are excellent. He has seen the days. Is it gone?"

"Look." Ling Xiao wiped the sauce from the corner of Chu Yifeng's mouth with his fingers, and wiped it on the handkerchief casually, "I just made a small order, and it's set on the eighth day of next August, and I've passed the imperial examination by then, Shi Ming The city can also feel at ease."

Chu Yifeng nodded, and he was also a man of culture. Chu Yifeng knew that he was no better than others, and said enviously: "There are many people who praise him, and next year they must be in high school." He said with a smile and asked, "I remember you have a concubine Younger sister, her name is... Ling Yi, right? I’ve seen it before, which one did she order? Why haven’t I heard of it.”

"Ling Yi..." Ling Xiao sneered in his heart, not wanting to bother Chu Yifeng with these nasty things, he just said, "Ling Yi is not in good health this year, and the spectator said that her fate is not good this year, so it is not appropriate to discuss marriage. It will have to be decided next year.”

What Ling Xiao said was what he said, Chu Yijin nodded, and then thought of something to talk to him, the two of them ate and drank slowly, and Ling Xiao directly rested in the Begonia Courtyard when it was late.

Shen Xiangxie in Shoukanghou's mansion, Xia Lan ordered the little girl to put down the medicine cup, and walked close to her with the medicine, and said softly: "The medicine is ready, get up and take a sip."

Ling Yi turned her face away as if she didn't hear, Xia Lan sighed, and ordered the maids and women in the room to go down first, and said in a low voice: "My eldest lady, half a year has passed, what do you want to do? What? If you just go on like this, how many years will the daughter's house in the boudoir be delayed?"

Ling Yi felt even more uncomfortable hearing this, so she stood up and took a sip, frowned and said, "Why is there ginseng slices in this medicine? I'm already very dry in autumn, and I keep giving it to me. I wish I could drink it." What about death?!"

Xia Lan sighed: "I also said that, but the doctor said that you are weak, and you rely on these supplements to nourish yourself."

"You don't have to rely on a few broken ginseng for nourishment! Didn't your aunt send bird's nest every day?" Ling Yi got up and rolled up her hair, "Just stew the bird's nest to make up for it. No."

Xia Lan smiled wryly: "Isn't the daily bird's nest stewed in the morning? This thing is so precious, how can there be any extra."

"That's all?!" Ling Yi turned her face, feeling even more angry in her heart, "Not to mention now, Ling Zhi always eats a cup of bird's nest porridge every morning and evening, how come I have nothing here?!"

Xia Lan's face immediately turned down, and she said angrily: "This happened?! I didn't know that those women were fooling me! Come!"

Xia Lan ordered someone to call the woman who was in charge of Ling Yi's meal plan, and spat hard face to face: "Blind old whore! You look at me and dare to deceive me without knowing it. Missy's plan is yours!" Dare to skip it, I'm not afraid that I will break your leg when I go back to the master!"

The old woman was stunned by the scolding for a while, and only after asking about it did she realize that she was talking about the daily serving of bird's nest. The old woman cried, "I really don't know who told my aunt and grandma, where are the daily servings of the young ladies?" , this golden swiftlet lamp is such a precious thing, and the shop outside can only buy white swallow lamp, how can there be this in the order? Or is it because the eldest lady has not been in good health for the past six months, so my aunt and wife bought more He said that he added a daily ration of bird's nest for the medical treatment of the eldest lady, but the second lady didn't have it! The gossip my aunt and grandma heard from there killed me..."

The old woman started to cry as she said that, she rolled on the ground and said nothing to stop her. Ling Yi was already impatient, so she just yelled for someone to beat the old woman. Mrs. Shi came.

As soon as Mrs. Shi entered the door, she saw Xia Lan rolling with a woman, her clothes were wrinkled and her hair was untied, and Ling Yi next to her was scolding with disheveled clothes and disheveled hair. Mrs. Shi immediately lost her temper and said angrily: Get up! What does it look like?!"

When Xia Lan saw Mrs. Shi, she straightened her clothes and straightened her hair. Mrs. Shi didn't even want to look at her.So what if I help her become an aunt?Not the same disrespect!

Mrs. Shi went straight in and looked at Ling Yi's expression, then turned around and said, "Why are you acting like this again?"

Xia Lan hurriedly wanted to explain, the woman was humiliated by Xia Lan for no reason, so she couldn't be convinced, relying on Mrs. Shi crying and telling what happened just now, Xia Lan couldn't stop her, so she hurriedly explained: "My aunt doesn't know... ...I really feel sorry for Missy..."

"You love her and I won't hurt her anymore?" Mrs. Shi said coldly, "Because of Yi girl's illness, I ordered someone to add bird's nest to her. I don't eat this thing every day, it's just because of her illness. Pamper her a little more, and in your mouth, it will become my favor for the childish girl and reduce the favor of the girl?"

Xia Lan turned pale with fright, Mrs. Shi said coldly: "It is true that only Ling Yi has the daily bird's nest rule in the public, young girl...you only know that young girl eats bird's nest every morning and evening, but you don't know that it is her brother Bought it with your own share of money! Since you are jealous, let the young master spend money to buy it for you! See if I say one more word?!"

When Xia Lan heard that Ling Xiao bought it, she didn't dare to say anything more. Mrs. Shi scolded angrily: "Don't you see that they are all advanced things. Where can you buy them if you have money? It's not that Ling Xiao entrusted someone! He Every time I got it, except for Ling Zhi’s daily food, I gave it to Ling Yi, and I distributed it to Ling Yi in Gongzhong, you don’t know how to be grateful, but dare to humiliate these things!”

Xia Lan and Ling Yi were ignorant, and now they were ashamed and indignant. They just bowed their heads and said nothing. Mrs. Shi saw that her good intentions were said by Xia Lan and Ling Yi behind her back. Then if it spreads out, I don’t know how to say that I am partial!

The more she thinks about it, the angrier she gets. Because of Ling Yi's illness recently, Mrs. Shi's previous dissatisfaction with her has gone a little bit more loving. Today, all the love for her these days has been taken away by this disturbance, and she is no longer the same as before. Asking about Ling Yi's food and drink carefully, he helped Nanny Li and his party go.
