"Give Feng Shumei as the lord of Jiamu County, as a clan daughter and pro-Bei Lone?" Ling Zhao slammed the teacup in his hand on the table, "A bunch of waste, that Shu Mei is still alive?!" ”

Ling Zhao's injuries had not healed, and he asked to return to his home to take care of Xu Zhiyi on the grounds that she was not pregnant, and Emperor Chengde did not notify him to participate in the recent court meeting out of compassion and care. When he learned that the final candidate for Heqin was Shu Mei, he was surprised. His original plan was to force Yu Yao to make peace, disrupt Xu Guifei's position, and then pave the way for Concubine De to take charge of the Middle Palace, but he never thought that there would be a fork in the middle of Yu Yao's suicide.

It doesn't matter who Emperor Chengde arranges to go to Beilin to make peace with, but it can't be Shu Mei. This woman knew too much about Tianxianglou, if it weren't for Chu Yugu's negligence in handling things at the beginning, she wouldn't have lived in the world a long time ago. After Ling Li's victory in the Western Realm, he speculated that Shu Mei might not be dead, so he specially arranged for people to control the crossings of each checkpoint and asked her to be eliminated cleanly, but he didn't expect that she was not only alive, but also became the county lord of Jiamu, who was close to her!

Chen Mao, the hall master in charge of Tianxianglou, knelt down and said: "Shen Chan's portrait, each of the brothers of Tianxianglou has one, and Yan Siniang's wanted warrant has not been revoked, it stands to reason that it is impossible for her to get away with ......."

"She is facing Shen Chan's face, so naturally it is impossible for her to get away, but what if she disguises herself?!" Ling Zhao scolded angrily.

Chen Mao was stunned for a moment, and immediately stood up, "I, I'll sneak into the Shu Mansion to solve this trouble." ”

"Infiltrate the Prime Minister's Mansion and assassinate the county lord? Don't you think too much about things?! ”

"So, what now?" Chen Mao looked at Chu Yugu, the landlord who was standing on the side, with a confused expression.

Chu Yugu just hung his head and said nothing. He also regretted not being at the beginning, if he hadn't softened his heart because of Xu Zhiyi and saved his life, why did these things happen later? The daughter of the clan and the relatives will enter the Yongnian Palace to receive court etiquette training, and they will inevitably meet with the concubines in the palace and even Emperor Chengde himself......

"I'll go to the Akigikan first to see if there is a turnaround." Ling Zhao glanced at Chu Yugu and said helplessly: "If you really can't help it, just start on the way to the palace." ”

*********

In the evening, as soon as Ling Li returned from the Privy Council to discuss the terms of the peace talks, Cao Zhong reported that Ling Zhao, the king of Tongshu, had come to visit, and the carriages and horses of the palace had arrived in front of the palace. Ling Li didn't have time to change his clothes, so he turned around and went out to greet him.

"Isn't the second brother recuperating behind closed doors? Why do you remember me here today? Welcoming Ling Zhao down from the carriage, Ling Li asked with a smile.

"That little injury has been healed a long time ago, I just took the opportunity to be lazy behind closed doors, and the third brother should not expose it...... It's the third brother who conferred the title of King Jing'an, and I haven't come to congratulate me yet," Ling Zhao said, turning to Luo Qi, a retainer behind him, and said, "Quick, bring up the king's congratulatory gift!" ”

As soon as Ling Zhao gave the order, Luo Qi led the people of the palace to carry up twelve gift boxes decorated with red silk, and opened them one by one in front of Ling Li.

Ling Li couldn't help laughing and said: "Second brother's battle today, I don't know it, I still think it's the palace marrying a ......."

"Marry? These things are also suitable for dowry. Ling Zhao smiled and said: "The third brother is entitled, and the father is rewarded, I don't dare to trespass, these things are ordinary things, the third brother is not too cheesy." ”

"Second brother's things, there is nothing tacky." Ling Li smiled, raised his hand and led to the house: "Since the second brother's body has recovered, then our brother will drink a few ...... today."

"I heard that my father gave my third brother a few altars of the best to enjoy it, and today I came here for this." Ling Zhao said with a smile.

In the waterfront pavilion of the winding corridor, Ling Li and Ling Zhao drank and talked happily.

After three rounds of drinking, Ling Zhaohu asked, "Third brother, do you still remember that before you became the general of Zhenxi, we used to have tea here?" ”

"Naturally, I remember that the second brother informed all the opinions of the ministers in the vertical arch hall that day, so that I had a bottom in my heart when I met my father." Ling Li raised his glass, "Thank you, Second Brother, for your preference......"

"Which is this" Ling Zhao shook his head, "I suggested that you ask to marry Shu Shi'an's granddaughter that day, do you remember?" ”

Ling Li was stunned for a moment, then remembered the situation that day, and nodded: "A little impressive." ”

"The girl of the Shu family is very good, and I also asked my father to marry later...... I never thought that Shu Shi'an's old and old-fashioned would refuse his father's marriage......" Seeing Ling Li's surprised face, Ling Zhao smiled and said, "Third brother, do you know why?" ”

"Why?"

"Because the girl of the Shu family will not marry unless you do."

Ling Li was stunned for a moment. But soon he laughed again, picked up the wine jug and poured wine for Ling Zhao, "Second brother Mo is going to make fun of me......"

"Where is the teasing, I am jealous of the third brother" Ling Zhao raised his head and drank the wine in the cup, his previous smile was gone, and he only said with a lonely face: "She knows everything about raising military salaries for the third brother and sending food for thousands of miles, and the last time she heard that the third brother was attacked on the way back to Beijing, she actually cried and fainted in front of the coffin......"

Ling Li was taken aback. He heard Cao Zhong talk about this that day, but he didn't expect it to be Shu Mei who was crying! Where do you deserve her to be so fond of? She liked him, and he couldn't have reciprocated. Now he just wants to find Chu Qing, who has accompanied him in Rouge Island. He already has a clue, Yan Siniang's wanted warrant is painted with her appearance, and if you find the person who painted, you may be able to know her origin......

Seeing Ling Zhao's depressed expression, Ling Li asked, "Second brother came to my house today to beg for wine, just for her?" ”

"Doesn't the third brother know yet?" Ling Zhao smiled bitterly and said, "Father Emperor named her the county lord of Jiamu today, and she will replace Yu Yao and Qin Bei Lian. ”

"And pro-Bei Lone?" Ling Li remembered the advice he gave to Emperor Chengde that day, and was stunned for a moment. After thinking about it for a while, he smiled again: "It's also quite appropriate, back then, Shu Shi'an tried to advise Emperor Jin Yao and his relatives Xili, and now let his granddaughter and relatives, it is also due to fate that he will ......."

"Third brother, you are really a martial artist! Such an infatuated woman, it is difficult to find in the world, and you don't have any pity?! Ling Zhao held the wine glass, pointed at Ling Li, and said bitterly, "I still thought that she didn't want to marry me, because she loved you, and it was up to you to ask your father, maybe there was room for change in the matter of marriage......

"Second brother, don't worry, I've been to Beilin, the eldest son Jun is really a stable and kind person, and Miss Shu won't suffer if she marries." Ling Li filled the glass of wine for Ling Zhao again.

Looking at Ling Li's unmoved expression, Ling Zhao breathed a sigh of relief. The last time I tempted him to marry Shu Mei, I wanted to see if he was ambitious; This time, he mentioned Shu Mei again to find out if he had a private relationship with Shu Mei, and whether he knew everything about himself and Tianxianglou. It seems that what he feared did not happen.
