After Li Xiujing finished speaking, as if he had nothing to do, he said a few more words to the Queen Mother, and then retired.

Because of Li Xiujing's words, the Queen Mother didn't have the heart to talk to Ling Chuyu, so she sent someone away directly.

The carriage of the Ling family was waiting at the gate of the palace, and when he got into the car, he saw that the person who had just been talking nonsense in front of the Queen Mother was sitting inside.

"Hmph, I'm looking for your sweetheart!"

Li Xiujing hugged the person into his arms, and said shamelessly: "Didn't I come to find it?"

Ling Chuyu said angrily: "I haven't seen you for a few days, but your skin is getting thicker and thicker, let go!"

When Li Xiujing heard this, he was a little weak-hearted and let go a little, but he still refused to let go, and explained: "The fifteenth day came to me to ask me to solve the matter on the Tatar side." ”

"What's wrong? That princess is pestering you again?"

"Absolutely not!" Li Xiujing hurriedly explained, he could see Ling Chuyu's jealousy, if he had the slightest hesitation at this time, he could think of his fate.

Ling Chuyu snorted lightly and motioned for him to continue.

Seeing that Ling Chuyu was no longer talking about this topic, where did he dare to mention it, Li Xiujing hurriedly put it on Ling Chuyu's ear and said, "It's the Zhang family, colluding with the Tatar clan and robbing my border." ”

Ling Chuyu was startled, and turned to look at Li Xiujing, "This ...... How dare the Zhang family? Collusion...... This is a big crime of raiding the family and destroying the clan, so he is not afraid of implicating King Yu?"

Li Xiujing snorted lightly, "The Zhang family is in a hurry, now the emperor loves King Yu, but he hates to see the Zhang family, and the Marquis of Anding is afraid that he will not wait for the level of King Yu when the time comes, and the emperor will destroy the Zhang family first." ”

Ling Chuyu thought of the emperor's recent attitude towards the Zhang family, and really didn't rule out this possibility, but the Zhang family took a risk, and they were really forced to be in a hurry.

Zhang's dog jumped off the wall in a hurry and took a stinky move. "After experiencing the cruelty of the war in the previous life, Ling Chuyu can better recognize the harm of war to the people.

The year is not good, the life of the people at the bottom is already difficult, and these high-ranking people actually do this kind of thing for their own selfishness.

"The Zhang family is doing this secretly, and what the Uke Catalogue does is leaky, but they didn't expect that there were people from me by the side of the Uke Catalogue. "The Marquis of Anding is thoughtful, and the Hou Mansion has been operating well over the years, and there is no way for people in the Zhang Mansion to hear the secrets.

And he released people around Wuketulu, just to keep an eye on him in Tianxu and not mess around.

But he didn't expect that the Marquis of Anding would want to trade with the Tatars, open the border gates, let them in and plunder, and want to lure King Cheng out of the capital.

and then transfer him away, so that there is no one in the capital, and the Zhang family will really succeed if they start an incident.

"It seems that the Zhang family has come to die. ”

Li Xiujing patted Ling Chuyu's back and comforted: "I went in time, they didn't succeed, there is already martial law on the Mengcheng side, I personally led the troops to expel the Tatars to the depths of the grassland for hundreds of miles, they will not come to attack in a short time." ”

Ling Chuyu nodded, reached out to wrap his arms around Li Xiujing's neck, and said sullenly, "You rushed back so soon, did you have a good rest." ”

"I'm fine, I just miss you, it's not good for me that the general didn't come back to be by your side. ”

Ling Chuyu's eyes turned red when she heard this.

Everyone congratulated her these days, but only this person cared about her feelings.

Ling Chuyu didn't want Li Xiujing to see her appearance, buried her head in his arms, and said sullenly: "My father's marriage was still proposed by me, but when people entered the door, I found that I still couldn't face it calmly, although I called her mother, but I really couldn't do it, I thought more than once, if my mother hadn't died, would our family be very happy." ”

Li Xiujing knew that Ling Chuyu was drilling the tip of the horns, but he himself was a child who had no mother since he was a child, knowing this mood, he touched Ling Chuyu's head, "The general has not married for you for so many years, it is really rare, I know that my Yu'er is for the good of the family, and your mother will be very relieved if she knows." ”

"Yu'er, people have joys and sorrows, your mother just went to the sky to wait for you first, she also hopes that you will live well with the general, if you don't want to be close, don't be close, with me, no one can force you. ”

Ling Chuyu was silent, and Li Xiujing stopped talking.

Everyone understands these truths, and what she needs is not comfort, but someone to accompany her.

Thinking that when she needed him the most, but he was not there, Li Xiujing felt a little sad in his heart.

Ling Chuyu said the most secret thoughts in his heart, felt a lot more relaxed, and raised his head from Li Xiujing's arms, "You are not allowed to laugh at me." ”

"It's too late to feel sorry for you, how can you laugh at me. ”

The two people leaned together quietly, enjoying a brief silence.

Soon the car arrived at the General's Mansion, Ling Chuyu thought about it, went to ask the Zhang family for peace first, and said goodbye by the way.

"Mother, I'm going back to Daohean early tomorrow morning, and I won't come to say goodbye then. ”

Zhang looked at her stepdaughter, paused, waved away the girl's mother-in-law, lowered her voice and asked, "Chu Yu, you call me mother, I can't help but think about you, you, the princess of prayer, can you not do it?"

Ling Chuyu's heart moved, looking at Zhang's expression, seeing her frowning, her face worried, her heart warmed, and she shook her head, "Mother, this is a matter decided by the emperor and the queen mother personally, and it is difficult to change it. ”

"It's hard to change, it's not that there's no chance, isn't it?" Zhang's face softened, "Lord Bai of the Ministry of Rites will be one step closer this year, and then my brother is likely to be the next Secretary of the Ministry of Rites, if he is allowed to move the emperor and say that you can make you, the princess of prayer, not do it, are you willing?"

The Bai family said this, which really surprised Ling Chuyu a little, after all, this matter involved the Zhang family's mother's brother, "Mother doesn't have to be like this, this matter is not in a hurry." ”

"It's in a hurry, everything has to be considered in the long run, I also came from your time, if you don't want to be this princess of prayer, or don't do it well, outsiders look very beautiful, but at the age of flowers and jade, they are tied to the nunnery, miserable for a lifetime, and the gains outweigh the losses. ”

Bai's sentences are for his own good, Ling Chuyu acknowledged this feeling, and immediately got up and saluted, "Thank you mother for thinking about me, but now that it is an eventful time, when Lord Zhang is promoted in the future, if the mother still thinks like today, the daughter will definitely come to trouble the mother." ”

Seeing that Ling Chuyu was not outside of him, the Zhang family was also very happy, stood up and held Ling Chuyu's hand and said: "If you call me mother, I will be worthy of this mother, don't worry, I will take care of the general and guard the Ling family!"

Ling Chuyu thanked him, said a few more words and went back to the courtyard.
