The early dynasty discussed for several days, but there was no result at all, Ling'er wanted to give up, but because she was worried about Meng Meng in her heart, she still had some hope. After the morning court, Ling'er called Qi Hai to talk to Qi Dai in the imperial study.

"Father, this matter is in a stalemate, and it's not a thing," Ling'er also drooped her head.

Qi Hai heard Qi Dai say that the eunuchs in the imperial study were all old men at that time of the emperor, and he looked left and right and said, "Your Majesty, can you let them quit when we talk about things?" ”

"Well, you go down." Ling'er waved her hand.

"Your Majesty, it is General Liu who is used by the emperor to balance the Wen family, no matter what the scholars say, Liu Cambodia must be in opposition, the reason doesn't matter, no matter how far-fetched it is, it can be regarded as a different voice. Minister, saying that he is a pure minister, His Majesty may not believe it, the minister only wants to support His Majesty, the minister and Dai'er both support Your Majesty, and what Your Majesty thinks is what the minister thinks. Be anxious about what Your Majesty is anxious about, and think about what Your Majesty thinks. Qi Hai confessed, and then Ling'er was very moved when she heard it, and she could be regarded as having her own supporters in the court.

"Father..."Ling'er said in a somewhat moving tone.

"Your Majesty, if the ministers of the court can't be the lord at the top, and die to benefit the people, and they are all corpses and vegetarian meals, the East China Kingdom will not use external forces, and it will be destroyed by itself, and the ministers cannot assist the Ming Jun, but blindly check and balance, where are the people and the soldiers who protect the country!" Qi Dai's thoughts in his heart are different from Qi Hai's, he just wants to be a pure minister, he didn't dare to say it to Ling'er that day, but today he came with his father, and he has enough confidence to speak.

Ling'er was silent after hearing this, Qi Hai looked at Qi Dai with wide eyes, and he didn't know why he would say such a remark, and hurriedly said: "Dai'er, what are you talking nonsense?!" ”

"This is just the minister's own thoughts, the court is not here to check and balance people, why do you want to use these on an old minister who has guarded the frontier for most of his life, Wen Guogong only has the country in his heart, and has no power. I don't know the twists and turns of civil officials. Qi Dai fought back.

"***** old and young are rotten and rotten. Father's Brother Dai is different, he is a clean and youthful person, and when he read Qi Dai's articles before, he felt refreshing, which allowed him to keep his original intention, this is the hope of the imperial court! But Qi Dai, the court is far dirtier than you know, and the cost of maintaining cleanliness is also greater than you think...... Clearing the way for people like you, that's what I'm thinking about now. "Ling'er has been looking at these officialdoms recently, and she doesn't know if it's her own problem or whose problem, and she always has a feeling of powerlessness.

Ling'er praised Qi Dai, but Qi Dai was embarrassed, and Qi Hai said for a long time: "Your Majesty, the minister wants to tell Brother Dai about family affairs." ”

"Oh? That's a good thing. Ling'er smiled. She could hear that Qi Hai was testing Ling'er and testing Ling'er's attitude towards Qi Dai.

"In this way, Your Majesty agrees." Qi Hai's sentence is meaningful.

"I don't know which lady it is?" Ling'er asked with a smile.

"I haven't been hired yet, so I don't dare to say it." Qi Hai replied.

"Well, when I come back, I want to ask for a cup of wine to eat." Ling'er glanced at Qi Dai. Qi Dai lowered his head, unable to see what state it was. Ling'er turned her face to look at Qi Hai and continued: "The matter of the court still needs my father to have the same heart as Ling'er. ”

"This is natural, and you don't need to explain it to Your Majesty." Qi Haile laughed.

"Young Master Qi, you send your father and come back." Ling'er made a gesture of please.

Qi Dai followed Qi Hai out.

"Dai'er, what nonsense are you talking to Your Majesty!" Qi Hai walked a few steps and then turned back to talk to his son.

"Father, son is not ready to get married." Qi Dai raised his head and looked at Qi Hai and said affirmatively.

"The order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker. None of this is up to you. Qi Hai didn't think about it well, in fact, those words were just a temptation, but he didn't try Ling'er, but he tried his son.

"My son already has a heart." Qi Dai has never disobeyed his parents since he was a child, and this is really the first time.

"Who? Your Majesty? Qi Hai frowned.

Qi Dai didn't answer yes or no, took a deep breath and continued: "Father go slowly, Your Majesty is still waiting for me." ”

Qi Hai suddenly said again when he turned around: "Your marriage has been decided, and no one can be Your Majesty." ”

Qi Hai stood for a while, and walked back to the imperial study without looking back.

"Coming back?" Ling'er glanced up at him and continued to bow her head: "What's wrong?" The face is so ugly. ”

"Your Majesty, Qi Dai knows that he is not his brother, and Qi Dai doesn't want to get married now." Qi Dai knelt down as he spoke: "Your Majesty help me." ”

"What's wrong? Don't like the girl your father chooses for you? Whose family is it? Ling'er smiled.

"Qi Dai begged Your Majesty, help me." Qi Dai kowtowed, very loudly. Ling'er hurriedly stood up and walked over to help him.

"It's not a big deal, you say, I'll help you. You see, there are prints on the head, and your mother will be distressed when she comes home. Ling'er helped him up and returned to his seat.

"Your Majesty, Qi Dai doesn't want to get married now, and now you are the only one who can make my father change his mind." Qi Dai bit his lip, looking aggrieved and angry.

"Tell me, who did your father set for you, and why don't you like it?" Ling'er looked at him pitifully, Zhengse watched him speak, and put down the pen in his hand.

"No matter who my father decides, it's not the person Qi Dai thinks in his heart." Qi Dai lowered his head after speaking.

"Then you want me to help you, what do I have to say to my father." Ling'er asked puzzled.

"He wants you to tell Master Qi to let him enter the palace to accompany you and let you accept him." Ah Jue didn't know when he came, so he swaggered in, didn't salute, and sat directly next to Ling'er.

"Yes. Your Majesty, please! Qi Dai was told that he was in his heart, and he didn't explain, so he knelt down again.

"Don't think about it, Ling'er won't promise you, at least I won't let Ling'er promise you." Ah Jue took Ling'er's hand: "I'm coming to eat with you." You're going to let me hear that? ”

"Why all of a sudden?" Ling'er felt that there might be some unavoidable hardship.

"Your Majesty, if you tell the emperor that you have accepted a minister, the emperor should ask you to send troops, this is one of them. My father also found it difficult to see me, and he would never force me to marry again, which is the second thing. When the army is dispatched, Qi Dai will go with the army, and he will never come back after wandering the world, and he will not embarrass His Majesty and His Royal Highness, this is the third. Qi Dai knelt down and finished speaking. Ling'er didn't speak for a long time.

"It's not the first time that you want to occupy a famous place first and then get closer to Ling'er, so it's better not to be delusional." Ah Jue clenched his fists, it was really a laugh, did Qi Dai think that he was smarter than others, and he would pretend to be like others couldn't see it.

"Young Master Qi, none of these reasons are inevitable or valid." The Qi family that Ling'er wants to protect, how can everyone in the Qi family agree.

"Then, Qi Dai likes His Majesty. Is this justification okay? Qi Dai wants to protect His Majesty instead of his brother? After Qi Dai finished speaking, he knelt on the ground.

"That's why you've been so close to Ling'er." Ah Jue's vinegar jar has long been overturned.

"Young Master Qi, you need to be calm, anything can be solved slowly, I can't accept what you said, and I can't explain it to my father. Go back, tell your father well, he will understand you, father, in fact, he loves his children very much, whether it is Qi Rong or Zuo Zuo or you and your younger brothers and sisters, it is the same. He will always think about you and do the best he can. After Ling'er finished speaking, she shouted outside: "Send Young Master Qi back." ”

The little eunuch hurriedly came in and helped him out. Ah Jue sat next to Ling'er and didn't speak, both of them were silent. Ling'er continued to bow her head and drape the music. Ah Jue hugged Ling'er: "I've been guarding against you, who knows he did it on purpose." My heart is so sour, Ling'er. ”

"You say, do I want to send him to the sixth department to experience and experience, the same level as Shangshu, but to do different things, and it's not a matter to stay by his side." Ling'er turned her head to look at Ah Jue.

"I'm talking about me, why are you only talking about him." Ah Jue's vinegar jar is sour, and it is out of control.

"Aren't I solving the problem!" Ling'er hammered him.

Ah Jue was completely angry, hugged Ling'er and kissed her. Ling'er was almost suffocated to death by his kiss before letting go.

"What are you doing?" Ling'er pushed Ah Jue away, got up and went out.

"Where to go? Let's eat together! Ah Jue didn't expect her to run away, thinking that she would come back by herself in a while, so she didn't go out.

Ling'er went to the guard camp to find the commander and said, "Master, I want to leave the palace." ”

"Your Majesty, it's still a little hot at noon, where are you going?" The Grand Commander asked, puzzled.

"Go to Qi Rong and sit down." Ling'er had no appetite to eat and was upset.

Now Ling'er doesn't need the emperor's consent to go out of the palace, as long as he wants to go out, he can go out. Ling'er took the commander and went to Qi Rong's cemetery.

After dismounting, the commander led people to guard the side, and found that there was a horse tied to a tree not far away, the commander was worried about Ling'er, and hurriedly went to her side, only to see Ling'er standing in place and not moving, there was a person sitting in front of Qi Rong's tomb, drinking wine in front of Qi Rong's tombstone, it was none other than Qi Dai. Ling'er stood in place for a while, and didn't walk over. Qi Dai was drinking wine and talking in front of the tomb.

"Brother, I'm sorry to tell you, my brother doesn't know when it started, and he likes Your Majesty. Your Majesty, she can't take your eyes off. Qi Dai took a big sip after speaking, and then said: "Father doesn't want me to enter the palace again, but I want to accompany her." ”

"Brother, what should I do, Ling'er, can I call her Ling'er, just shout in front of you, I used to shout secretly in my heart in the room, Ling'er. Over and over again. Qi Dai didn't know how to say it, and cried as he spoke.

"I had a showdown with Ling'er today, she didn't want to keep me at all, why did she tell me that day that she wanted to see me, Ling'er, she missed you, she missed you and looked at me, even if it was a substitute, she didn't want me to enter the palace." Qi Dai became excited as he spoke, and cried louder.

Ling'er originally wanted to come to see Qi Rong and stay quietly here for a while, but these couldn't satisfy her, Ling'er turned her face and went back, and explained to the commander that it was not safe to leave two people to accompany Qi Dai, and it was not safe to drink too much, so she would send Qi Dai back safely.

When she was about to go to the horse to get on the horse and leave, she saw Ah Jue waiting for her at the horse.

Ah Jue's face was full of sadness, and Ling'er saw it and hurriedly stepped forward.

"Why are you here?" Ling'er took his hand and explained, "I'll come to see Qi Rong, who knows he's also there." I didn't meet him or speak, and I was ready to go back. ”

"I saw it all." After Ah Jue finished speaking, he led Ling'er on the horse, shared a horse with Ling'er, and wrapped her in the crook of his arm: "The palace is about to suffocate me to death, if you fight with Nanyue this time, let me go to the front line." ”

"No, you can't." Ling'er clenched his hand.

"Give you some time, settle down the recent events, and see your heart clearly." Ah Jue said very gently.

"I don't need to look, I always knew it. I promised you. Ling'er clenched his hand.

"No, I need some time to relax." Although Ah Jue's tone was light, he recognized it in his heart.

"I'm not going to send troops, and you don't want to go." Ling'er wanted to turn around and come back to hug him, and was tightly encircled in his arms by Ah Jue.

"It's a matter of time before you send troops, the sooner you agree to your father's request, you can save Princess Wei sooner, and if you are late, you really can't save it." Ah Jue has been suspicious recently, and finally confirmed his thoughts, Qi Dai is going to Ling'er.

"If you don't send troops, you don't need to go to the front line." Ling'er shook her head vigorously.

"Let's take you to a restaurant in the Imperial City to eat, you didn't eat at noon, and I didn't eat either." Ah Jue changed the subject.

"Okay." Ling'er thought about going to bed late at night, and then approving the chapter at night, and now accompany Ah Jue more.

The two held hands and entered a well-known restaurant, asked for a private room, ordered a number of dishes, and ate casually.

"Well, it tastes good, really." Ling'er didn't know if she was hungry or really delicious, and she devoured it.

"I've been here before and it's really delicious. Fool. "Ah Jue saw that she was eating well, and was busy serving her vegetables." Eat slowly! ”

"You can eat together, what are you doing with me." Ling'er picked up the bowl and hid, and Ah Jue's chopsticks with the dish stopped in mid-air, and then smiled and took it back and stuffed it into his mouth to eat.

"We've had a few times. Why is your stomach not moving? Ah Jue looked at Ling'er's stomach and suddenly asked.

Ling'er didn't understand, and looked at Ah Jue with ignorant eyes and asked, "What?" What's moving? ”

"I mean, you're not pregnant yet." Ah Jue suddenly remembered just now that if he went to the front line and couldn't come back, Ling'er's stomach hadn't moved yet, would he be dead.

"What!" Ling'er gave him a blank look. "It took more than ten years for my father and queen mother to have me, why are you in a hurry."

"There was no rush. I don't think I'm trying hard enough. Ah Jue smiled narrowly.

"Really!" Ling'er raised her hand to hit him.

"What do you think of working hard tonight?" When Ah Jue said such things, his face was also very thick-skinned, and after he finished speaking, his face did not change, his heart did not beat, and he looked like a matter of course.
