Ling Hua naturally couldn't let the Queen Mother wait for a long time, packed up, and entered the palace early.

The queen mother likes to be quiet in recent years, moved to Changning Palace to recuperate, does not ask much about the affairs of the harem, and orders the concubines not to disturb her if they have nothing to do, so Changning Palace is very quiet all year round, except for the princes and princesses who go to ask for peace every once in a while, no one walks around.

Ling Hua didn't meet anyone along the way, and when he came to the gate of Changning Palace, he saw that Grandma Sun was already waiting.

When Mama Sun saw her, she said with a smile, "The Queen Mother knows that Miss Ling has strict rules, and she will not let the Queen Mother wait for a long time, and she will definitely come early, so she got up early today and is waiting for the girl inside." ”

Ling Hua smiled lightly, "Is the Queen Mother still in good health recently?" ”

"The Queen Mother is in good health, Miss Lao is worried." Mama Sun politely greeted Ling Hua and walked inside.

Entering the main hall of Changning Palace, the Queen Mother was indeed already sitting upright, Ling Hua was courteous in a proper manner, and her body had not bent down slightly, the Queen Mother hurriedly smiled and beckoned, "No need to see the courtesy, come forward quickly, let the mourning family take a good look at you, how do you look more and more watery?" ”

Ling Hua still saluted, walked forward with a smile, followed the queen mother's hand, and sat beside her.

The Queen Mother looked at her carefully and nodded incessantly, "The mourning family is not wrong, but it is water again, and it is three points better than the flower branches hanging high on the branches." ”

Ling Huawan'er, "Queen Mother, don't praise the minister, even if the minister is thick-skinned, he will be embarrassed." ”

The Queen Mother laughed.

The conversation began, and the two chatted very happily.

The Queen Mother likes to listen to what she sees and hears outside, and Ling Hua is not a real boudoir lady, she has been walking around almost all year round, so she picked and said it to the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother listened to it very interestingly.

Grandma Sun personally served tea and water on the side, thinking that this lady in the capital was so happy that Miss Ling could tease the queen mother, what she saw and heard, her words and deeds, and her good at grasping people's hearts, it was really not something that others could learn.

After more than half an hour, Ling Hua felt that it was almost over, so he stopped talking at the right time, waiting for the Queen Mother to speak.

The Queen Mother sighed, "The mourning family knows that since Your Majesty has pushed the huge stall of Jiangnan Caoyun to you, the burden on your body is huge, and it is not easy to shut up the courtiers and let Jiangnan Caoyun run smoothly." In front of the mourning family, you also focus on happy things and say that those difficult things and hard errands are not mentioned. ”

Ling Hua smiled, "If it weren't for Your Majesty's attention, there would be no me and the Ling family today, and the minister wouldn't feel hard." ”

The Queen Mother smiled and patted her hand, "You can support the Ling family, which is something that no one expected, at the beginning, Your Majesty insisted on not listening to the courtiers' persuasion and handed over Jiangnan Caoyun to you, and I didn't expect you to do so well." Of course, because of your good work, Your Majesty has also gained a good reputation for being discerning and unconventional in employing people, and in front of the courtiers, your waist is also straight. ”

Ling Hua's expression was gentle, "I should repay my parents for Jun's kindness, my parents are no longer there, so I should do my best to repay Jun's kindness." ”

"Good boy. You are so kind-hearted at such a young age, even the mourning family admires you. The Queen Mother sighed, "Your two little nephews, are they all right?" ”

"It's all very good, thank you for your concern, Ling Han has been sent to Lushan Academy by my third brother, Ling Zhi is still young, and his fourth cousin is also very dedicated to his upbringing."

The Queen Mother nodded, "Your two cousins, it's time to marry a wife, right?" ”

"It's here."

"It's also difficult for them, before they get married, they raise their sons first, and they are so attentive to their nephews, which shows that they are all good." The Queen Mother said, "You ask them, if there is a girl in the picture, if there is a match, the mourning family will give them a marriage." ”

Being able to get married by the Queen Mother is naturally a great blessing, and others can't ask for it.

Ling Hua knew that this was the Queen Mother's disguised favor for her, so that she could be merciful to Yan Qing's subordinates.

Ling Hua thanked him with kindness, "The minister thanked the Queen Mother first, and after going back, he asked the third brother and the fourth brother, if they have a favorite woman, the minister will definitely inform the Queen Mother and ask the Queen Mother to bless." ”

Seeing her agree, the Queen Mother secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "I heard that the mourning family won 1.5 million taels of silver from your Bafang Gambling House yesterday?" ”

Ling Hua nodded, "Yes, there is such a thing, the secret bet of the little marquis is extremely accurate, and the treasury silver of my gambling house has been emptied, so that the bottom is covered, and today the Bafang gambling house is closed because there is no silver in operation." ”

The Queen Mother coughed, "That stinky thing is not doing its job, it really gives the mourning family a headache." You shouldn't have given him all the money happily, and in the future, wouldn't he be even more smug in his misdeeds? Your gambling house is your mother's dowry, right? It's all closed, and ...... in the future."

Ling Hua took over, "It's just that there is no cash in circulation, you have to transfer cash from other industries, and you have to close the door for ten days and eight days, but it doesn't have much impact, at most, this year will be in vain, so that the minister's gambling house will rely on His Majesty's taxes." ”

The Queen Mother laughed, "You, in addition to the taxes of Jiangnan Caoyun every year, the taxes of your own industry are also handed over to the national treasury, no wonder Your Majesty often sighs, you are the money bag of our Houliang." ”

Ling Hua also smiled, "The minister has no other hobbies, he does love money, His Majesty is a Bole who knows thousands of horses, so that the minister's shortcomings have become advantages and have played the greatest role." ”

"The banquet is light, and the mourning family will call him into the palace another day and let him restrain himself." The Queen Mother said, "Duanjing Houfu is alone, and the mourning family is also very conniving at him, this time thanks to your forbearance, the mourning family will not allow him to go to your gambling house again in the future." ”

Ling Hua pursed his lips and smiled, "The minister is also really envious of the little marquis, he can do what he wants, do what he wants, and be unrestrained, which is something that the minister can't envy." You don't have to be harsh on him, if you still like to go to the Bafang Gambling House to place secret bets in the future, the minister's gambling house doesn't have much to do with him. ”

The Queen Mother was shocked, and there was a rare surprise on her face, "You think he ......"

Ling Hua smiled, "I won't hide it from you, Chen was taught strictly by his mother when he was a child, and what he longed for the most was the day when no one was in charge of him and he was free to do whatever he wanted." ”

The Queen Mother remembered that Mrs. Ling was born in a businessman, and when she was alive, she did teach her daughter strictly, which was difficult for ordinary people to reach, and she saw that Ling Hua seemed to be sincere and felt that there was nothing wrong with Yan Qing's doing, and she was very envious of Yan Qing's appearance, and she really didn't know what to say for a while.
