Chapter 248: The Choice of the Descendants
Chapter 248: The Choice of the Descendants
Returning home from Zhao Zhen's mansion, Jing and Chen Qiniang specially looked for Ling Qingyun.
"Rui Niang's marriage, let's discuss it in the future, you said that if you don't let her enter the palace, you won't enter the palace. Don't teach her to say weird things. Jing Shi Yan warned Ling Qingyun.
Ling Qingyun smiled: "Mother, how did you figure it out?" β
Jing nodded her forehead: "You are a ghost, my mother can't beat you!" β
The most important thing is that Jing and Chen Qiniang agreed with Ling Qingyun's words: Rui Niang is not suitable for entering the palace, and she will not be able to protect herself after entering the palace.
Rui Niang can only marry into a simple family, even a big family.
After Jing made this decision, he immediately went to sue Princess Ji and Xiao Jing.
Princess Ji was very disappointed: "Sister-in-law, I have always liked Rui Niang." She's a blessed one, why did you change your mind? β
"Her identity is unusual, I'm afraid that it will be troublesome in the future," Jing's mind was firm.
Jing didn't tell Princess Ji that Rui Niang was her daughter, but Rui Niang looked like Ling Qingcheng, and Princess Ji thought it was related to Ling Qingcheng, that is, it was related to her brother, and she didn't suspect Jing.
Jing didn't want to mention it either, the fewer people knew, the better.
Xiao Jing's agreed with Jing's: "Sister, you are Rui Niang's mother, you are naturally for the good of the child." You've thought it through, and I have no objection. β
Jingshi suddenly found that Xiao Jingshi trusted her very much, and no matter what she decided, Xiao Jingshi supported her.
Haven't all these years been like this?
Originally. Not only does Rui Niang trust and rely on Ling Qingyun, but so does Xiao Jing's family.
Jing was a little moved, and gently took Xiao Jing's hand, like when he was a child.
"If you say that, I will feel at ease, otherwise I will always think that I will ruin the future of the child." Jing took Xiao Jing's hand for a long time, as if looking for a little comfort.
In the end, Jing Shi figured it out by himself, and finally felt that the prosperous Jing Ling family in front of him couldn't grasp it, and it was important to live honestly. This is the best result.
Ruojing's insistence on going his own way. I have to let Rui Niang enter the palace. Do you really want to disobey her?
After the eaves, I also have to go to my mother-in-law's house for the New Year's holidays!
Therefore, Jing Shi figured it out by himself, it was good for everyone, and it was better for An Wei and Ling Qingyun.
Ling Qingyun breathed a sigh of relief.
"Great aunt. Here are the shoes I made for you. Rui Niang gave a pair of shoes to Jing's. The smile is coquettish.
"Ugh. Why do you make shoes for me again? Jing took it, and was pleasantly surprised.
"My sister said that my aunt was good to me and loved me! Later. I'm also good to my aunt! Rui Niang smiled.
Jing touched her head, thinking to herself, "That ghost elf of Wan'er", although he thought so, he was also satisfied.
What could be more important than being a family reunion?
These days, the Ling family is also relatively busy.
Ling Qingcheng is ready to go to Yangzhou, everything is ready, and he is waiting to leave on the sixth day of the first month of March. Actually, he was in a hurry, but Ling Qingcheng had to wait for Ling Qingyun to leave the pavilion.
"Are you willing?" Ling Qingcheng these days, the two children are in their arms, not caring at all about the rules of the father not holding the son, one on the left and one on the right, like touching a watermelon, his heart is bubbling, Chen Qiniang is laughing and teasing him next to him.
"Reluctantly!" Ling Qingcheng put down the child and hugged Chen Qiniang.
In their house, there was always laughter and laughter.
Ling Qingcheng is about to take office, half of his heart is eager to try, half is unbearable to part, the love is complicated, Chen Qiniang often teases him and makes him happy.
Ling Qingcheng could understand Chen Qiniang's kindness, so he restrained the little sadness of parting, and amused Chen Qiniang and the children at home all day long.
When he returns to Beijing next time to report on his work, the child will be one year old. However, for three years at most, he will either take his children and wife with him or return to Beijing. Three years ago, the child was still a toddler and not very sensible; When they reach the age of three or four, they are just ignorant and sensible, and it is the most fun.
Thinking like this, Ling Qingcheng didn't have much regret.
"Tong'er has visited the teacher in the Ge Clan Martial Arts Pavilion in the past two days, does my mother know about this?" Ling Qingcheng asked Chen Qiniang quietly.
His younger brother Ling Qingtong has loved to play since he was a child and is particularly rebellious. But in the past few days, somehow, I have accepted my temperament, I want to take the road of martial arts, and I found a martial arts hall to learn art.
Ling Qingtong didn't tell his family, but Ling Qingyun told Ling Qingcheng.
"Yes." Chen Qiniang said, "Yun'er mentioned it yesterday, and my mother was very happy, but Tong'er still disappeared, and I couldn't find his person." β
"And you still count on someone to find him?" Ling Qingcheng smiled, "It's good to be a little self-motivated, let him be." β
Ling Qingcheng was very tolerant of his younger brother, and always felt that his younger brother was not easy, and no one in the family was related to him. If he treats him badly again, he will be isolated, so Ling Qingcheng loves him very much and indulges him.
Ling Qingtong was also very satisfied with this matter.
Last time, the Khitan woman made Ling Qingyun suffer some injuries, and her hand was sinned for half a month, and Ling Qingtong felt very guilty.
As soon as he felt guilty, he learned to reflect.
He told Ling Qingyun and said: "I had a lot of regrets in my previous life, but the second sister is right, is it to live to make up for regrets?" Make up for it, but it lives up to the time of this life. β
He could make this epiphany, and Ling Qingyun breathed a sigh of relief.
Therefore, Ling Qingyun built his own merits, and he was unwilling to study and practice martial arts.
He agreed to go to martial arts.
Because An Wei is a military attachΓ©, it will be easy to place Ling Qingtong in the future. Ling Qingtong has lived a lifetime, enjoying his old age, his mentality is very old, and his inertia is much stronger than that of a child, let him really go to the camp, he is too lazy to get it, so he can only rely on An Canopy.
Because he has lived for a long time, Ling Qingtong does not have the pride of a young man, and he feels ashamed to rely on others, he just follows the fate anyway, and he is comfortable.
Throughout February, time passed slowly.
For the first time, Ling Qingyun felt that time was slow and urgent.
In this slow time, Ling Qingyun met Lu Luo's children and wife.
Ling Qingyun used to stay away from this sister-in-law, and she had no feelings, but now she will see you again. It's the same.
It's Lu Luo's daughter, who gets more and more beautiful.
Lu Luo is ten years older than Lu Yu, and Lu Yu is four years older than Ling Qingyun, so Lu Luo's eldest daughter is eight years old this year, lively and cute.
"She's Yuan Niang." Lu Luo sued Ling Qingyun.
Lu Luo is the eldest of his brothers, so his daughter is also the eldest daughter of his generation.
The family calls her Yuan Niang.
"She looks like my sister." Ling Qingyun secretly told Lu Luo in private. Speaking of Lu Xuan, her heart is very calm, as quiet as someone who talks about the next world.
She taught Ling Qingtong to let go of the past, precisely because she herself let go.
"yes." Lu Luo also sighed. "The longer she gets, the more she looks like Xuan. That's right, Jiuniang. Aunts and grandmothers, they may have to fight for the new position."
Ling Qingyun was stunned.
The Wang family has been defeated, but in the northwest, it is dead but not stiff, and it is still majestic; The Lu clan gradually declined, and the children could not replace it. The only way to go is to take the road of the descendants.
Even if you can't choose the queen. The Lu family will also send their daughter to the palace as a concubine.
"Auntie and grandmother have taken a fancy to Yuan Niang?" Ling Qingyun asked.
Lu Luo was noncommittal.
"Would my brother be willing?" Ling Qingyun asked again.
Lu Luo immediately shook his head. Without hesitation: "I have already taken two younger sisters in the palace, do you want my daughter to repeat the mistakes of the past?" It's just that I'm also from the Lu family. You also know my aunt's methods, I'm afraid I won't be able to stop them. If Prime Minister An can help me."
He hoped that Ansu could help and refused to marry the Lu family.
Ling Qingyun listened and bowed slightly: "I'll go and sue my uncle, I'll help you block this matter!" β
After a pause, she asked Lu Luo again, "What about sister-in-law and Yuan Niang, what are they going to do?" β
Ling Qingyun didn't know if Lu Luo's wife was willing.
The affairs of children and daughters are not decided by one person.
Lu Luo hesitated and said, "She is an inner house woman, she doesn't understand anything!" β
He didn't plan to sue his wife.
Without hope, there is no hope.
may be because Lu Xuan died in the palace, which made Ling Qingyun feel that being a palace concubine or even a queen was a dangerous thing to seek skin with a tiger. The life of the harem is inhumane, husband and wife cannot become husband and wife, and mother and son cannot become mother and son.
This road of wealth and wealth, one step at a time, is bloodstained.
The Lu family has experienced wealth, just like an old tree, once flourishing and blooming, but now it is still dry and lonely after a hundred years, and it is also going down.
is already going downhill, and it is useless to take many daughters in, and it is impossible to change his life against the sky.
"Let's talk to my sister-in-law." When Ling Qingyun was leaving, she said to Lu Luo, "After all, this is also her daughter, I can't make decisions for you." β
Lu Luo nodded.
He pondered for a moment, and told his wife about it.
Mrs. Lu's face suddenly turned pale, and she said to Lu Luo with a pale face: "You know how much hardship I have suffered when I raise this daughter. She is innocent and cute, sent to that eerie and terrifying place, half a human is not alive, it is better to kill me with a knife first! β
Lu Luo told Ling Qingyun about his wife's meaning.
Ling Qingyun listened, got up and went to find An Canopy.
Hearing this, An Wei smiled slightly, and said to Ling Qingyun: "There is no need to worry too much about the queen's matter."
"What, has it already been decided?" Ling Qingyun asked.
An Wei shook his head and said: "You see, the world's wang clan wants to squeeze their heads for the sake of their descendants, and they will break their heads and bleed, and this matter can be used, so I told my father, let it not be decided within two or three years, let them jump, and take the opportunity to rectify the government!" β
The government is all in the hands of the An father and son, so which clan to choose as the descendant is also up to the An father and son.
An Wei felt that the courtiers were not convinced by him and his father, so the election was undecided, and there were many prominent families who befriended them, and the more forces they could use.
Ling Qingyun thought that An Wei would be able to have such a great ability in the future and control the court for decades, not by chance and chance, but by his wisdom.
She gently shook An's hand.
She got An Wei's words, and turned around to tell her brother Lu Luo: "It's already been said, Yuan Niang is fine, but you should also marry her as soon as possible in case there is a change." β
Lu Luo was overjoyed.
When Lu Luo's wife heard about it, she was very happy and went to Ling's house to thank Ling Qingyun. Then, she and Ling Qingyun slowly became familiar with each other, and Ling Qingyun felt that her sister-in-law was not so indifferent, and the relationship between the two was better than before.
In the blink of an eye, it's March.
The wedding of Ling Qingyun and An Wei finally came as scheduled, without further twists and turns. Ling Qingyun's tense heart also slowly relaxed.
It was only at this time that she was a little nervous about getting married.
