Chapter 114: Congratulations from all directions

"The scholars of the Hanlin Academy are here to celebrate the birthday of Lao Shangshu!" It turned out to be Lao Sanling's fearless colleagues, who came over to celebrate the old man's birthday. Ling Buxing immediately took his wife and happily trotted all the way to the door to greet his colleagues. Several scholars from the Hanlin Academy entered the academy one by one to send congratulatory gifts and blessings to the old man.

After all, the old man has been in the position of Shangshu for a long time, and several older scholars of the Hanlin Academy have great respect for the old man, and the younger ones are mainly here to cheer for the third child. Seeing the arrival of so many colleagues, it was obvious that the waist of the third couple was much straighter.

Ling Ziyi and Ling Zilei were also pulled to the old man's side by their parents, and they were praised by everyone.

After sending off a group of colleagues from the Hanlin Academy, there was a commotion at the door, and the person who came was dressed in a straight official robe, and the whole person walked like the wind and stood like a pine. At first glance, he is a high-ranking official of the imperial court who is rigorous in his work and strict with himself. After seeing the visitor, Lao Si immediately put down the cup in his hand and walked quickly to the visitor.

"Lord Wang, why did you come here, hurry up and sit in the house." Ling Buru, who was smiling all over his face, immediately beckoned his wife to give up her seat. But after Lord Wang nodded a little and said hello, he walked directly inside, came to the old man's side, bowed down and said, "Student Wang Wei, I wish Lao Shangshu a birthday, I wish Lao Shangshu a blessing like the East China Sea, and a longevity better than Nanshan!" ”

The person who came was Wang Wei, the Qing of Dali Temple, who was the first student of the old man, so the old man sent his youngest son to Dali Temple, which was regarded as letting him take care of it. Seeing Wang Wei in person, the old man was very happy, and he drank two more glasses. Wang Wei was on official business, and after giving the gift, he left the Ling Mansion accompanied by the fourth Ling.

Then many officialdom colleagues of the Ling family's sons and nephews came one after another to congratulate the old man on his birthday, which made the Ling Mansion, which was not prepared to hold a birthday banquet with great fanfare, suddenly become crowded.

"The Gongsun family of the capital city will send a congratulatory gift to the old man!"

"The Ouyang family in the capital city will send a congratulatory gift to the old man!"

“。。。。。。”

In addition to the birthday celebrations, some famous nobles who have an average relationship with the old man also sent congratulatory gifts. Hubert specially asked his subordinates to vacate the room to receive the gift-giver, and everyone who came to give the gift, the old man took care of the gift and thanked him. There was a festive atmosphere in the Ling Mansion.

It becomes in a corner on the side. Ling Buyi and his wife, who were sought after by everyone before, were also slowly left out in the cold. After all, their business is in the East China Sea, and it doesn't matter if the capital is here. So once again, he was ridiculed and snubbed by his relatives.

"Hey, cousin Zixuan, it seems that your family really has no connections in the capital, and there are no people who come to celebrate grandpa's birthday, and you can't do anything if you don't have connections in the capital!" On the side, Ling Zitian said sneering at Ling Zixuan. Several cousins of the Ling family next to him also gossiped to cooperate with Ling Zitian.

Ling Zixuan didn't pay attention to their ridicule at all, drinking tea alone, knocking melon seeds, very leisurely, and didn't take them seriously at all. On the contrary, Ling Shuangshuang couldn't listen to it and scolded a few people directly: "If you don't speak, no one will treat you as dumb!" ”

When several people saw that Ling Shuangshuang had once again defended Ling Zixuan, they immediately stopped making a sound, but there was still mockery in their eyes.

Ling Buregret looked at Ling Zixuan with a calm face, thinking thoughtfully. He couldn't see through this nephew at all, and as one of the few martial arts masters in the capital, he was already considered a top figure. But every time I saw Ling Zixuan's eyes, I always felt that what I saw was a vast ocean, a vast starry sky.

This feeling has only been seen in his eyes a few times when he communicates with the national teacher. Although he doesn't like the national teacher very much, he always feels that the national teacher is too hidden, but he admires the strength of the national teacher. For a person who cultivates the Immortal Dao, what can he, a martial arts master in the mortal realm, be worth.

Since he entered the Martial Arts Grandmaster, he has gained more understanding and understanding of cultivating immortals and entering the Dao, knowing that no matter how powerful the mortal realm is, it is less than one-ten-thousandth of those who cultivate immortals. Therefore, he felt that Ling Zixuan should also be an immortal cultivator.

And what made him feel incredible was that every time he looked at his nephew, there was even something more unfathomable than facing the national teacher. He also heard about Ling Zixuan's defeat of Wang Chujun of the Wang family with one punch, at that time he thought that Ling Zixuan had the most strength at the peak, but now that he has come into contact, he still underestimates this nephew too much, and it is ridiculous that these juniors of the Ling family still regard themselves as high and look down on Ling Zixuan.

It's still his daughter's vision is different, after coming back from going to Donghai City this time, his opinion of Ling Zixuan has changed greatly, and he has changed his previous attitude of looking down on this cousin, and he actually respects Ling Zixuan, which makes him feel very lucky.

"Jiang Tiefeng, the newly promoted secretary of the military department, came to congratulate the old Shangshu on his birthday!" While he was still pondering, a shout came from outside. All the noise in the Ling Mansion stopped suddenly, and everyone looked at Jiang Tiefeng, who came in from the door, dressed in a brand new scarlet robe. Look at me, I'll look at you, but no one took the initiative to greet you for a while.

At this time, Ling Buyi and his wife finally stood up and walked forward quickly, "Brother Jiang, I didn't expect that I hadn't come to congratulate you on your promotion to the first grade, so you came one step ahead of me to celebrate the birthday of our old man." ”

Jiang Tiefeng laughed and said: "Lao Shangshu is a model for us to learn, how can we not come to congratulate on the day of our birthday, the little nephew wishes Lao Shangshu a long spring, the sun and the moon are prosperous." Congratulations to Lao Shangshu for having such excellent descendants, and he will definitely be a dragon and a phoenix in the world in the future! ”

The old man had also stepped forward quickly, took Jiang Tiefeng's hand, and thanked Jiang Shangshu for coming to celebrate his birthday in person. Suddenly, a young and beautiful girl burst out from behind Jiang Tiefeng, "I wish Grandpa Ling good health and all the best." This is a special gift prepared by the little girl, I hope the grandfather likes it. ”

It turned out that Jiang Jingwen also came to the capital with her father, just to surprise Ling Zixuan.

When the old man saw such a bright girl, he actually prepared a gift for himself, but he was stunned for a moment, thinking why did Jiang Tiefeng bring his daughter to congratulate him.

Then he glanced at Mu Wenying and Ling Buyi on the side, only to see Mu Wenying glance at Ling Zixuan, and Ling Zixuan slowly got up and walked over and said hello to Jiang Tiefeng. Then Jiang Jingwen obediently walked to Ling Zixuan's side, pulled his sleeve, and made a playful grimace at him.

The old man instantly understood the relationship between the two children, and laughed, "Okay! Good! Good! Jiang Shangshu's daughter is really beautiful and wise, slim and elegant, what a blessing! ”
