On July 10, Wang Lin, who was in Chengde Villa, gave birth to a baby boy unharmed, adding a touch of joy to the gloomy Kyoto.

This child came in time, which made Emperor Yongli and Concubine Su a little more loved, and immediately gave a reward no less than that of Gu Xichen's brothers and sisters when they were born.

Gu Mingyu rushed to Chengde Villa on the same day to stay, accompanied by Wang Lin, who was immersed in the joy of childbirth, and Wei Ziyuan also sent a lot of tonic medicines.

On July 13, Wang Lin's son Xisan, Emperor Yongli officially issued a holy decree and gave him the name "Gu Xihong".

Because their mother and son were far away in the suburbs of Beijing, this baptism ceremony was extremely simple and low-key, and only a very small number of the Nine Emperor Sons rushed over to celebrate, which made Wei Ziyuan, who had lost his son, feel a little more balanced in his heart.

There was a lot of joy in Chengde Villa, but the Xianhou Mansion was full of blood.

At noon, seven people led by Gu Mingyan and Ning Guogong led the Imperial Forest Army to raid the Lingxian Marquis's Mansion, and all the people of the Wang clan were imprisoned.

In addition, the residences of dozens of officials who colluded with Ling Xianhou were also raided.

On that day, a total of nearly 1,000 people were sentenced to death, just waiting for the autumn queen to be beheaded.

Even though he had been on the battlefield in this life, having taken the heads of countless thieves and thieves, and looking at a group of prisoners waiting to be beheaded, Ning Guogong was still a little moved, and couldn't help but feel very pity.

"Grandpa Guo! Ling Xianhou said...... Say he wants to see you! When the gate of the prison was about to close, a guard quickly ran to Ning Guogong, who was about to turn around, to report.

Ning Guogong paused, groaned slightly, and said expressionlessly: "Lead the way!" ”

He and Marquis Ling Xian are both veterans of the dynasty, although they don't have much friendship, after many years, there is still a little affection.

Now that this old fellow has ended up like this, he is not comfortable in his heart, and he is so sad that he is so sad!

Since the Marquis Ling Xian wants to see him, then let his wish be granted!

The guards clenched their fists and received orders, and then took Ning Guogong to the depths of the prison.

"Grandpa Guo......" As soon as the fifth prince called out, he was stopped by Gu Mingyan's gaze.

"Fifth Emperor Brother, Grandpa Guo and Marquis Ling Xian have been on the same staff for many years, he is just going to see off Marquis Ling Xian, let him go!" Gu Mingyan looked at Grandpa Guo's still upright back from afar, his eyes were distant and profound.

It stands to reason that Marquis Ling Xian is already a death row prisoner, and he shouldn't have gone to see him privately without his father's order, but the grandfather of the country is famous for his love and righteousness, and he is also an old minister, so it is inevitable that there will be some desolation and sourness cooked by rabbits and dead dogs, so let him go if he wants to see him!

"Brother Three Emperors is very right! We're brothers, wait a minute! Don't publicize it! The Eighth Prince also said sadly.

He was originally a straight man, but after going through the prison disaster, he was much calmer.

Not to mention the high wind and brightness of the Grandpa Guo, even if Su Jinli helped them when he and Xin'er were trapped in the Zongren Mansion, he should also protect Ning Guogong well.

"Hmm!" The rest of the princes nodded one after another.

Then, they stood quietly outside and waited for Ning Guogong to return.

Ning Guogong walked for a long time, and after passing through countless dark and damp corridors, he finally arrived at Ling Xianhou, who was imprisoned in the deepest part of the heavenly prison.

"Click!" With a bang, the rotten, rusty cell door was opened.

"Go down, all of you! The prince of the country has something to say to the marquis! Ning Guogong ordered solemnly.

The guards who led him and the guards beside him took orders and quickly retreated.

Then, the old man slowly walked into the cell, which was full of musty smell, and the former spirited Ling Xianhou was now squatting in the corner of the wall in a dirty suit.

"You're here!" Ling Xianhou raised his head, and he was unprecedentedly calm and indifferent, greeting Ning Guogong like an old friend.

"Hmm!" Ning Guogong nodded.

Then there was a dead silence in the cell.

After a long time, Ling Xianhou took the lead in breaking this calm, and he said with a smile: "The old man has been in the limelight for decades, not to mention that he has no last resort, but he is also resourceful, but now he has become a prisoner!" ”

Ning Guogong was silent, waiting for him to continue.

"But...... The old man is not afraid! The old man's life can be regarded as vigorous! Even if he dies, the old man will still leave a strong self-portrait in the history of this Yan Kingdom! Children of poor families, who has the ability of an old man? Ling Xianhou's face was actually a little proud, and he was extremely happy.

"What's so good about this power? If you are willing to be more restrained, how can Your Majesty also take care of the relationship between master and apprentice, so that you can have a good death! Ning Guogong shook his head and asked sadly.

It was not a day or two days for the Marquis to form a party for personal gain, and Emperor Yongli had already noticed it, so there was the "lively" birthday banquet the year before last!

The holy decree that ordered the civil and military officials and the prince to congratulate him on his birthday was not obvious enough, so what the eldest princess Shunyi did at the birthday banquet should be obvious enough, right?

Don't say anything about the bystanders, the authorities are confused, he doesn't believe that the wise and wise will not see the crisis and warning under the "favor"!

Hearing this, Ling Xianhou actually laughed out loud: "Hahaha...... What's so good about power? ”

Smiling and smiling, a little bit of water welled up in his old and cloudy eyes, and he changed his words, almost roaring bitterly: "Of course, you don't have to care about any power as a noble son born in this Great Yan No. 1 Jiangmen family!" You don't have to fight, you don't have to fight to hold 500,000 troops! Favored by the king, admired by the officials and the people! But the old man is different! If the old man doesn't fight or fight, he can only be looked down upon! ”

Ning Guogong was silent, and the sadness in his eyes expanded a little.

He knew very well that what Ling Xianhou said was right, this was the sorrow of all talented people born in a cold family.

"The old man naturally knows His Majesty's warning and can't bear it, but the old man has no way out at all! Only by fighting against the water and coming out with a title will the Wang family not fall apart after the old man's death! ”

He hates, there are no outstanding children in the clan to support the Wang family, who is strong and strong!

If there is a descendant like Song Yi or Su Yi, then he can enjoy the grace given by His Majesty and die peacefully.

In this way, after his death, there will be a descendant who will inherit his shadow and prop up the lintel of the Wang family, and he will not be still scheming!

The heavens do not fulfill people's wishes, and there is no excellent son in the Wang family!

Once he is gone, no matter how much Emperor Yongli thinks of his kindness to help, the Wang family will slowly decline!

"Dude...... You're too obsessed after all! Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren! Ning Guogong sighed.

He was the head of the family, and he could understand Ling Xianhou's mind very well, and it was because of this understanding that he felt more and more pitiful and pathetic.

"That's it! That's it! It's come to this, and the old man doesn't want to say more! Ling Xianhou smiled bitterly.

He has been reduced to a prisoner. Besides, aren't all these for nothing?

"Alas!" Ning Guogong continued to sigh, he only felt very sorry.

"All this is the old man's own choice, the old man does not regret it, and he doesn't need your mercy brother! The old man asked you to come today, just to ask you a question, please be sure to tell the truth! Ling Xianhou raised his chin and said proudly.

He had always been a proud man, and he didn't need anyone's sympathy.

"You ask!"

"Did you refuse Tao'er's request to marry that girl from your family because you thought my Wang family was low, and she was not worthy of you, the lady of Dayan's first general?" Ling Xianhou asked the doubts that had been haunting his heart.

"It's not!" Ning Guogong said without hesitation.

"Oh?" Ling Xianhou's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he didn't quite believe it.

"The embroidered girl has a heart! On that day, I had already moved the idea of marrying her to your boy, but the girl cried and said that she had a heart and would rather die than marry! Ning Guogong sighed.

What a sin!

If it weren't for this, Ling Xianhou would not have a grudge against him, and he would have gone to great lengths to target Ning Guogong, and he would not have had to check the bottom of the Wang family for self-protection, and Ling Xianhou's Mansion would not have collapsed so quickly!

"Hahaha! And so it was! Originally...... It was the old man's heart that hurt my Wang family! Ling Xianhou laughed madly, his eyes full of bitterness.

Obviously, he also thought of what Ning Guogong was thinking at the moment.

He thought that Ning Guogong looked down on the lintel of the Wang family, so he stumbled Ning Guogong everywhere, and even stepped on Ning Guogong's line when the Queen Mother was calculating Ning Guogong's mansion!

Who knew that it was because of this kick that Ning Guogong, who had endured for a long time, no longer endured, and directly lifted his old bottom and let him go to prison!

It's really a trick!

Ning Guogong was already uncomfortable in his heart, and when he saw Ling Xianhou like this, he was even more sad, and after hesitating for a while, he finally decided to tell Ling Xianhou the news of Wang Lin's childbirth.

"The Nine Emperor Princesses gave birth to a Lin'er three days ago! Both mother and son are safe, today is the West Three Rites of the little emperor and grandson! ”

"What? That's great! Ling Xianhou immediately laughed.

In an instant, his joy turned into endless worry.

The palace is deep, how can his granddaughter, who is helpless and gave birth to a grandson, live?

Although Wang Lin is clever and intelligent, which of them is easy to mess with, Wei Ziyuan and those ill-intentioned people in the palace?

The more he thought about it, the more Ling Xianhou palpitated.

He would rather Wang Lin give birth to a small county lord! In this way, their mother and daughter can live for a long time!

"Plop!" Ling Xianhou knelt directly at Ning Guogong's feet, grabbed the corner of Ning Guogong's clothes and begged: "The old man begged for Grandpa Guo!" Save the lives of my poor granddaughter and great-grandchildren! ”

Ning Guogong was taken aback, and hurriedly helped Ling Xianhou up.

"Dude, what are you doing! Hurry up! He exclaimed.

Ling Xianhou still firmly grabbed the corner of his clothes and refused to get up, and when he was panicked, he said: "If Grandpa Guo refuses to agree, the old man will kneel and die here!" ”

He can't care about any face now, he just hopes that Wang Lin and the little emperor and grandson he didn't have the chance to see will be safe and sound.

"I promise you! The little emperor grandson is also my great-grandson! I'll keep him safe! The old prince grabbed Ling Xianhou's hand and said solemnly.

"Thank you! Thanks a lot! Ling Xianhou got up according to his words and thanked him gratefully.
