762 Ordered to Pick Up Girls [The Finale](1/3)
Liang Tiantian ran away again, and she said she wanted to go to a place where many beautiful memories left in her previous life to see it.∈, although Liang Shoushan couldn't bear to part with his daughter, he also knew that the steps of this daughter were not bound by her own family.
After all, I let her go.
Ling Xu didn't know if this girl was hiding from him again, but this time he made up his mind to chase her back at all corners of the world.
The one-month closed-door thought that the deadline had come. Before Ling Xu's injury was healed, he stayed in the Liang family all day long, beating his father-in-law about the whereabouts of the girl.
Liang Shoushan was so annoyed by him that he could not beat him, and he was not afraid of being scolded. He simply hid out.
Ling Xu, under the principle of "to be thick-skinned, if you can't beat him to death, you will be tortured to death", never forgetting that he has a home and stays in the Liang family all day long.
Liang Shoushan was so angry that he said angrily: "Although you have been removed from office by Your Majesty, you are still an official of the court. The appointment of the Ministry of Personnel may come down one day. Even if I tell you where she is, can you go all the way to find her?"
Thousands of miles?
Ling Xu grinded his teeth secretly.
Sure enough, this girl hid thousands of miles away again.
"I have written my resignation and I have already handed it to the Ministry of Personnel a few days ago." Ling Xu looked bachelor. Since the girl didn't care about her identity, why should she work like this? So what if she doesn't have an official position? With his only one's merit of saving the title, even if His Majesty is stingy, he will give him a free title. As long as he can ensure that he and the girl live a worry-free life in the future, Ling Xu is too lazy to care about other matters now.
"Resignation?" Liang Shoushan stared at him strangely, "What's your reason?" He dared to resign after being beaten by the emperor just now. In the eyes of those who are interested, it means he has resentment towards the emperor. No one can afford such consequences. Liang Shoushan doesn't believe that Ling Xu can't see this clearly.
"Retire and return home." Ling Xu looked calm, "Now the inner guard has been on the right track. Ling Xu has done what he should do. I should enjoy my life, and I believe Your Majesty will understand."
Understand a big headed ghost!
When I went to the study room, I just saw Ling Xu’s memorial being passed on by the Ministry of Personnel. Emperor Xuanzhi threw the memorial to the ground in anger.
"I'm against him!" He dared to get angry after a fight, but he was beaten lightly. It seems that the thoughts of this month have not only failed, but also made Ling Xu, the boy, become arrogant because of his favor.
"Come, I'm here to pass the imperial edict. Ling Xu thought about it behind closed doors for a month... No, it's three months..."
Before Emperor Xuanzhi could finish his words, the sixth prince Xuan Qingye, who had just read the memorial, hurriedly said, "Father, let me listen to my son's words." The leader and eunuch hurriedly retreated, and at this time, only the sixth prince dared to speak.
"What are you going to say? Don't plead for that guy." He didn't want to hear anyone plead for now.
"I wish my father could teach this ignorant guy a lesson. How could he plead for him?" Xuan Qingye smiled and said, "It's just my father. Why did Ling Xu do this this time? My son probably guessed a little. Although he was not sure, he knew that he must have done this because he had resentment."
Emperor Xuanzhi calmed down and knew that Ling Xu was not the kind of person who was arrogant because of his favor. He laughed and scolded: "I said he wasn't pleading for him. I don't know when your relationship was so good."
"No." Xuan Qingye leaned over and helped his father with affectionate support, "I just don't want a good minister to be wronged. There are few people in the court who provide timely assistance. Many people are taking advantage of the situation. Now the father asked Ling Xu to think about a month later, and he submitted his resignation as soon as he released him. It was Ling Xu's resentment... But the son knew that Ling Xu definitely did not dare to have such thoughts." The father hoped that he had a good relationship with Ling Xu, but he also had to grasp the right position. He had too close contact with ministers, and he also had problems in the eyes of those with thoughts.
Emperor Xuanzhi laughed. This child said that he was not pleading for Ling Xu. Although he was picking up on Ling Xu all day long, Ling Xu was beaten in the study room, but this child was so anxious. Ling Xu was the minister of the humerus he trained for his son. He would be relieved if they had such affection.
"Then tell me, since Ling Xu is not resentful, why is that for?" He was also curious. If he was not a good official, what would happen to Ling Xu?
"For my sister." Xuan Qingye carefully looked at his father's face, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he did not give up. He just wanted his father to understand that Liang Tiantian was special to him, and that Xuan Qingye's eternal sister. Only then would the father love the house and Wu be more tolerant of the Liang family.
"The father knew that the two of them had been separated for several years because of some misunderstandings. This time, Ling Xu was punished and he was reluctant to eat. His sister was almost at the Gobi Desert. After knowing, she rushed back to take care of her... If there was no relationship between the two, I was afraid that the father would not believe it. I don't know whether Ling Xu had figured it out or what. I heard that my sister left a few days ago, so he probably wanted to chase him."
Of course Emperor Xuanzhi knew Ling Xu's emotional confusion, but was unhappy that the minister he valued the most had lost his temper for a little woman. "Isn't it just going to pursue a wife? As for the resignation?" Ling Xu was too useless.
Xuan Qingye smiled bitterly, "I'm afraid my father doesn't know. My sister left for more than two years in anger. Ling Xu searched through the Daqian Dynasty but couldn't find anyone. I was afraid that my sister would leave for another two years." How many more years can I spend like this in my life?
Emperor Xuanzhi didn't know what he was thinking, and it took him a long time to say, "Is he still reasonable?" He seemed to be looking for trouble when he heard this.
"Of course... no." Xuan Qingye breathed heavily and didn't suffocate himself to death. "Although it was unreasonable and not worthy of sympathy, it was understandable. My father just imagined that if a person could even abandon his life-saving benefactor and childhood sweetheart for promotion and wealth, would such a person be too terrible? The son always felt that talent is not the most important thing in choosing people, but virtue is. For example, those who have lost their virtues should not be hired. Who knows if he will sell his country for profit one day?" He couldn't help but think of Ji Baosheng. He complained behind his back. If it weren't for him, how could Qiuqiu and Huzi go far away to the Western Regions? It was really ungrateful that Liang Shoushan saved him back then.
Emperor Xuanzhi pretended not to understand what Xuan Qingye said. "Since that's the case, let's meet Xuan Lingxu." He also wanted to see what step this kid was willing to do for the little woman.
Ling Xu was once again Xuan. The people who received the letter in the capital could not help but be worried.
Sure enough, everyone said that Ling Xu was not usually favored by the emperor. After only a few days of lingering, he was summoned again.
Some people think that it seems that there was no injustice a few days ago?
Everyone in the capital thought that Ling Xu had good luck, arrived at Shangshu and did not even enter the door. He was ordered to kneel in front of Shangshu and reflect on his knees in front of Shangshu.
Although the injury was healed, it was a serious illness. Ling Xu was very weak. After only an hour of kneeling, he began to stagger. The ministers passing by saw it, but they became more and more envious of Ling Xu.
Everyone knows that Emperor Xuanzhi is an emperor who does not follow the norm. If he is willing to punish anyone, it can only prove that this person has a role in the emperor's mind. If you make a mistake, the emperor will not even punish him. He will throw it directly to other yamen for treatment. That is really a problem.
Ling Xu lived for two lifetimes and naturally knew what Emperor Xuanzhi liked. Therefore, even if he was uncomfortable, he would hold on to kneel down.
Another half an hour passed, and the sun was about to set, but Ling Xu was blown through cold sweat.
The leader eunuch presented a cup of new tea. Emperor Xuanzhi put down the memorial and said casually: "How is it?" The eunuch was stunned and then he came to ask the person outside, and hurriedly said: "I looked at him and knelt seriously. That's it..."
"When did you learn to stutter when you speak?" Emperor Xuanzhi was displeased. The eunuch hurriedly said, "It's not good to see Lord Ling. His face was as white as paper, and his clothes were soaked. I thought. It's cold sooner or later, so don't get sick anymore." After following the emperor all day, he naturally knew what Your Majesty appreciated Ling Xu and tentatively said, "Why don't I send me a piece of clothes?"
"Let him come in and kneel." Emperor Xuanzhi seemed to give a casual command, "Get a mat."
Xuan Qingye sorted out the memorials on the desk next to him, thinking: This is indeed a favored person in front of his father, and this treatment is tsk.
Ling Xu came in, "The criminal Ling Xu kowtowed to the emperor." Although he saw the mat, he didn't dare to kneel on it. He had been kneeling for too long. He just felt a grin when his knees hit the ground. Emperor Xuanzhi saw the little movement clearly.
"Okay, go down and change your clothes and come back later." After all, I can't punish you anymore. The child who was originally very good has only been seen for a month and has lost all his weight.
Ling Xu, who was unable to figure out the emperor's temper, carefully took his leave and even glanced at Xuan Qingye with his eyes, hoping to get a hint. Unfortunately, he didn't see anything.
"I'll let someone tell you that the fifth prince is here, you go back first."
Xuan Qingye was stunned, fifth brother?
"Go out from the main entrance and come back later."
Xuan Qingye did not dare to hesitate and hurriedly said, "Then I will leave." But he thought in his heart that his father called Ling Xu and Wu Ge again. Is there something wrong that he could hide from him? But if his father likes Wu Ge, he should not mention it in front of him. He couldn't figure out what could be between Ling Xu and Wu Ge?
As the little eunuch around him paid attention to the movement of going to the study, Xuan Qingye returned to his yard.
The fifth prince Xuan Qing came to the study room and saw Ling Xu also standing there, and suddenly had a bad premonition.
The two looked at each other and thought of someone at the same time.
"Ling Xu, are you very brave?" Emperor Xuanzhi suddenly spoke, scaring the two of them to their knees at the same time. Emperor Xuanzhi was happy, okay, it seemed quite tactful. However, since Xuan Qingbo did not mention the matter of the third prince himself, he naturally would not pursue it, but this knocking was essential. Now it seems that the effect is pretty good.
"Ling Xu was frightened." He knelt on the ground and was beating his heart, and Ling Xu didn't say much.
"You are afraid, dare to submit such a memorial to me?" Emperor Xuanzhi threw the resignation memorial on his face and said angrily: "Retire yourself? How old are you, and you want to return home?" He has not thought he was old yet, and Ling Xu really dared to say it.
Ling Xu understood clearly, don’t think about playing tricks in front of the emperor. If he doesn’t expose you, he will still spoil you. If the emperor’s patience is gone, the days will probably end.
Only a few people knew about the Lanyue Tower at that time. Emperor Xuanzhi had received a letter. It can be seen that in addition to the inner guard and the Jinyiwei, His Majesty must have another group of troops to serve him.
Thinking of this, Ling Xu did not dare to be clever anymore. He knew that His Majesty had always regarded him as his nephew, and immediately said aggrievedly: "If I say I go after my wife, I'm afraid Your Majesty will be even more angry." He didn't speak loudly, but when he went to the study room, he was the emperor, the fifth prince and him, so he naturally heard it.
Emperor Xuanzhi was so angry that he was so angry that he was happy. "Are you still considering my feelings?" Ling Xu was so brave that he dared to say anything. However, seeing his erratic appearance, Emperor Xuanzhi was really a little unbearable. "Get up!" He had a bad tone, but his eyes were full of pampering.
Ling Xu moved his knees and whispered: "I am still kneeling, afraid that I will make Your Majesty angry in a while. I have to kneel down." Xuan Qingzhuo was about to get up, but when he heard this, he almost got angry. As a result, he knelt back honestly. He murmured in his heart: No wonder that girl doesn't want Ling Xu anymore, she's so unethical. He doesn't want it either. Bah, he is a man, so he naturally won't want Ling Xu.
Emperor Xuanzhi was really amused by Ling Xu's "wronged little wife".
"Okay, I've done so many things that are not in front of me. Now I'm pretending to be a good minister and wise general." This is a bit heavy. However, anyone could hear the teasing in Emperor Xuanzhi's tone, so Ling Xu did not insist anymore. He stood up and subconsciously rubbed his knees. His careful appearance made Emperor Xuanzhi's heart soft. The scene of Ling Xu risking his life to block the knife for him appeared in front of him. The weak boy back then was so resolute. Emperor Xuanzhi, who thought he would die, was shocked and secretly swore that as long as the child did not betray him in the future, he would promise him a lifetime of glory.
Ling Xu is also committed to his strength. He has made so many contributions with the inner guards over the years, and it is not in vain that Emperor Xuanzhi has worked so hard for so many years. You must know that although the establishment of the inner guards gave Ling Xu three years of buffering time, a young man suddenly became a third-rank official in the court. Even if he had the help of saving the emperor, Emperor Xuanzhi had put a lot of effort into it.
Emperor Xuanzhi sat on the dragon table and looked at Ling Xu with a smile. "You have left even the important affairs of the court for a woman. For nothing, I see that you have no intention of political affairs, so I will give you a marriage." It's time to be peaceful when you become a relative.
Marriage?
Ling Xu was stunned and stared at the emperor in a daze, a little confused.
Emperor Xuanzhi picked up a volume of imperial edict from the desk and signaled Ling Xu to step forward.
Ling Xu was full of anxiety. When he opened it, he was stunned.
The marriage was granted to Ling Xu and Chengping County Lord, and they got married a year later!
"Your Majesty!" Ling Xu knelt down with a thud, "Please take back Cheng's life. Ling Xu already has something to do with him and will definitely not belong to other women."
The fifth prince Xuan Qingzhuo's heart skipped a beat.
After that, my father interfered in Ling Xu's marriage. What should Liang Tiantian do?
Although he was not at ease all day long, he treated his subordinates and friends very well. He was a little anxious and was about to speak, but when Emperor Xuanzhi glared at him, he was so scared that he immediately shut up.
"Are you trying to resist the order?" Everyone could hear that Emperor Xuanzhi's tone was not good. If Ling Xu was smart at this time, he should have agreed. After all, it was the emperor who gave the marriage, and the other party was still a county lord. Even if the woman was an ugly monster, it was enough for Ling Xu to show off. The emperor's grace was so great that he was given a marriage by the emperor himself.
"I don't dare." Ling Xu was frightened and threw himself into the ground, but raised the imperial edict high. "Ling Xu already has a heart and dare not delay the life of the county lord Chengping, and he doesn't want to deceive the county lord Chengping. Ling Xu can't give her a complete love, beg Your Majesty to take back his life." He was scared to death. This is different from his previous life, it's too bad. So where did the county lord Chengping come from? He doesn't know whether it's round or bing, so he doesn't want to marry him.
"Women are married to their husbands. Whatever loves or not is all in the play. The county lord Chengping is virtuous and kind, and he is a good match for you. You really don't think about it?" Emperor Xuanzhi stared at Ling Xu with a smile, his eyes full of jokes. Unfortunately, Ling Xu was so arrogant that he could not see it at all.
"Your Majesty gives marriage, and the county lord Chengping must be very good, but no matter how good she is, Ling Xu can't marry him." Ling Xu paused, "I dare not deceive Your Majesty, Ling Xu already has a heart of his own. He also made a vow to marry only Miss Liang in this life, and not take a concubine or keep a wife in the outer room, and it is even more impossible to divorce his wife." He had sworn that even the emperor could not force him.
Sure enough, Emperor Xuanzhi didn't say anything for a long time. Suddenly, "What if the girl in the Liang family died unfortunately?" He wanted to see what step Ling Xu could do.
Without hesitation, "Then Ling Xu is alone. Even if he never marrys her for the rest of his life, he will not be embarrassed to her."
Emperor Xuanzhi nodded secretly, "If you are unfilial, you are the best of your elders. Do you do this? Have you ever thought about the Ling family?" On the surface, he was embarrassed, but he recognized this relationship in his heart. As the Sixth Prince said, a person can even give up the feelings of childhood sweethearts and saviors. Such a person is not worthy of his reverence. Now it seems that Ling Xu is indeed a person who values love and righteousness.
Ling Xu didn't say anything for a long time. Just when Emperor Xuanzhi was almost impatient, Ling Xu lowered his head and said, "Ling Xu can adopt someone from the family and raise him under his knees, and the Ling family will not break the rear." The implication is that even if Ling Xu doesn't have anything to do.
Emperor Xuanzhi's mouth twitched, and finally nothing was said.
Ling Xu said respectfully: "Your Majesty gave the marriage to Ling Xu for your gratitude for your mercy. However, Ling Xu already has a heart of his own. Please ask Your Majesty to pity Ling Xu again and take back his life."
"I pity you. That's why I issued this imperial edict. Don't be ungrateful." Emperor Xuanzhi snorted coldly, looking at Ling Xu with a confused look on his face, "Who do you think that County Lord Chengping is? Isn't it the lady of the Liang family? If you resist the imperial edict again, I will really take it back."
Almost subconsciously, Ling Xu hugged the imperial edict tightly, as if the child who suddenly got the candy was afraid of someone robbing him, and looked alert.
Emperor Xuanzhi was stunned, then laughed and scolded: "Look at your unpromising look."
Ling Xu also realized his incompetence, and he did not apologize. He just blushed and said, "Your Majesty deliberately scared me and made me lose my composure. Your Majesty really..." He wanted to arouse His Majesty's pity, but he did not dare to be too presumptuous after all. He only blushed and said with a grievance.
To be continued...
