Chapter 10 Exchange the civet cat for the prince

After Shen Murou's injury was healed, TOEFL handed a letter to Ling Guan. The next day, she was called into Lingfu and stayed for more than an hour before she came out.

Ling Xiao knew that her mother was looking for her father, but she didn't know what they were talking about. All I know is that on the third day, a little steward from Ling's house came and asked her to go to the backyard of Ling's house to listen to her husband's lecture with the young lady.

"Mom, what did you say to your father?" Ling Xiao asked doubtfully, "Why, will he..."

Didn't he not recognize my daughter for a long time?

However, Shen Murou did not answer. She just picked up the comb to help her braid her hair again, straightened her clothes, and said with a smile, "Since your father agreed to let you read and learn painting and play the piano with your sister, you can go and study hard."

Ling Xiao opened his big eyes and imagined the situation of going to the mansion every day in the future. He was bored, but he nodded obediently for his mother.

Although it is a very painful thing for Ling Xiao to stay together day and month, she still doesn't go to her husband's lecture every day. In the face of being white-eyed and difficult, she only focused on learning what she should learn. Because this is what my mother wants, and I don't know how much effort my mother took to win for her.

I don't know whether Ling Guan really loves Yue Chan or Qi Luo asked for it. The gentleman who invited her is very talented. Not only poetry and books, but also a female teacher who specializes in teaching folk art and dance has been invited.

No matter how much Qiluo and Yuechan hate Ling Xiao, it is said that they have cried with Ling Guan for this matter, but no matter, they have not been able to stop Ling Xiao from "taining the light". Even if he wanted to use cold words or other tricks to force Ling Xiao to leave, he failed after all. After all, they still dare not disobey Ling Guan's intention.

Because of this matter, Ling Xiao's view of his father improved slightly. He thought that although he still didn't treat him very much, he finally fulfilled his father's responsibility. Anyway, she doesn't dare to expect too much for this father, which is already very good.

It's just that this only gratitude to my father has not lasted forever. Until the first year of Zhenhua——

The new emperor ascended the throne, and the whole country's big draft girl filled the court.

As soon as the imperial edict reached Ling Guan's hand, he began to meditate...

"Brother Li Ye?! My husband has returned to his hometown. He has been resting these days. Can you take me out to play?

Li Ye was by the bamboo forest near Lingfu, shaking the bamboo leaves in his hand and didn't know what he was thinking. Suddenly, there was a girl's voice with surprise, which made him almost drop the bamboo dragonfly out of his sleeve.

"Miss Ling?" Li Ye looked back and asked respectfully, "Why did you sneak out again? Lord Ling knew it was time to punish you."

Yue Chan smiled more happily. She raised her eyebrows and asked, "Brother Li Ye, do you care so much about me?"

"Miss Ling, Li Ye is just a referral..." Li Ye lowered his eyes and was waiting to answer, but he was interrupted before he finished speaking.

"What 'Miss Ling is not Miss Ling'? I've told you many times, call me 'Yuechan' or..." Yuechan was annoyed and stamped her foot heavily to attack. She turned her face, but she bent her head and smiled, "It's okay to call me Chan."

"Miss Ling..." Li Ye really didn't want to entangle with her, but as soon as he said a few words, he was interrupted by another exclamation.

"Brother Li Ye, is this for me?" Yue Chan saw the bamboo dragonfly on Li Ye's cuffs with sharp eyes, and directly grabbed his hand and shouted in surprise.

As soon as Li Ye stretched out his hand, he wanted to grab the things back, but looking at Yue Chan's love and couldn't put it down, he quietly put his hand down and said, "If you like it, take it."

"Brother Li Ye, you are so kind." Yue Chan almost jumped up happily, and then said, "Can you take me out to play tomorrow?"

Li Ye almost had to hold his forehead. He wanted to take the opportunity to slip away. Why did she still remember?

"Sister, I'll go tomorrow, too." Yue Chan looked at his face and obviously wanted to refuse. She immediately said, "She has to do her homework today and won't come out. I told her to go out together tomorrow."

Sure enough, when he heard this, a flash of joy flashed in Li Ye's eyes, but he still hesitated and didn't say anything.

Yue Chan turned the bamboo dragonfly in her hand and suddenly flew up. She deliberately said sourly, "You don't just want to go out with your sister, do you not go out with me?"

"How can it be?" Li Ye was shocked and said with a smile, "Well, but you have to take Chunmei and Xia He with you, or I dare not take you out."

"Well, all right." Yue Chan nodded reluctantly.

"Miss, oh, why did you come out again? The master should go home in a moment." Mother Huang trotted all the way and ran this way. When she saw Li Ye, she stared at him fiercely.

"Brother Li Ye, I'm going back. Let's meet at the gate of Jinrongfang tomorrow." With that, Yue Chan picked up the corner of her skirt and ran all the way not far away, picked up the bamboo dragonfly on the ground, turned around and waved to Li Ye before entering the gate.

As soon as the door behind her closed, Yue Chan's face changed in an instant. There was no gentleness when she was outside just now. Her eyes were full of hatred. The bamboo dragonfly was fiercely clenched in her hand and almost deformed.

"Oh, miss, your hand hurts carefully!" Seeing this, Mother Huang hurriedly said to Yue Chan, and said "sneer" outside the door again, "What the hell? You poor boy dares to think about our young lady and don't pee!"

Mrs. Huang is also an old man in this Lingfu. In addition to being in front of her master, she is used to domineering. She is usually used to being rude outside. At this time, she blurted out that. When she reacted and looked at Yuechan with a little uneasiness, she saw this young lady--

As soon as he raised his hand, he tosslam the bamboo dragonfly, which was still very precious, to the ground, and crushed a few feet desperately until he stepped on it to pieces. The ferocious expression on his face made Mrs. Huang tremble.

"Huh, sister? She deserves it too! What is it! It's such a rag, I don't care about it!" Yue Chan spit out these words in a hateful voice and strode to the room. As soon as she entered, there was a broken sound.

At this moment, outside the door, Li Ye's face can't see anywhere. Oh, if it weren't for the fear of implicting her and aunt, he wouldn't want to deal with this unruly lady!

However, thinking that I can see the person he misses tomorrow, and his eyes are a little warmer. As for the bamboo dragonfly... Anyway, it's not a good thing. She can do whatever she wants. Thinking about this, he left Lingfu.

"Look how you discipline your daughter? He is fifteen years old, and he is still so wayward. He often loses his temper. How can he look like a lady!" As soon as Ling Guan returned home, he heard that Yue Chan was smashing things in the house again, which made a big fire.

Qiluo lowered her head and was about to cry. She looked guilty and sad. She blamed herself and said, "It's all my concubine who is not good and didn't teach Chan well."

In fact, Yue Chan has always been like this. She is usually capricious. She throws a porcelain bottle every two days and beats a maid every three days. She does not do a lot of these things. I didn't see Ling Guan care too much, and I don't know what's going on today. Qi Luo secretly guessed in his heart.

Could it be... Suddenly she had an idea, and in an instant, ecstasy swept over her whole body.

"Sir, are you..." Qiluo looked at Ling Guan in disbelief and asked carefully.

Ling Guan sat down at the table without any possibility. Qiluo hurried forward to pour the tea and carefully brought it to his hand.

"Chang'er is beautiful and frank and cute. Unlike the rigidness of an ordinary girl, she is bound to be favored when she enters the palace." Ling Guan picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said slowly.

A few simple words made Qiluo almost faint, and her expression was dull for a long time before she woke up.

"Sir, is what you said true? Are you really going to send Chan'er? But...but, this imperial edict is not... not... the rule, is it not possible to enter?" Qiluo was ecstatic for a while, worried for a while, and said incoherently.

"Who said that Chan'er came out of the concubine?" Ling Guan sneered and said proudly at the corners of his mouth.

After hearing this, Qiluo suddenly didn't react, "Well, Chan'er... Chan'er is not..."

After a long time, she hesitated and said, "Sir, you mean..." This is a great crime of bullying the king and extermination!

However, she didn't say the last word. The wealth is right in front of us. No matter how risky it is, who can resist it? Can she still push it out with her own hands?

It was not until Ling Guan nodded that Qiluo sat down heavily on the side. In the face of this big thing, she really needs to digest it well.

She was just a maid at that time. Even if she married into the Ling family, she was just an aunt. No matter how much she trampled the eldest woman under her feet, she was just a concubine. As long as Shen Murou doesn't die and doesn't stop for a day, she will never get rid of the word "cheal". But how can it be easy to let her die? And Ling Guan will never divorce her for the sake of her official name.

Once, she thought that she had been like this in her life, but when she watched her daughter gradually become a beautiful face day by day, she secretly hid her mind. I didn't think there would be such a sentence in this draft!

The four words "non-legal" suddenly beat her to hell. She was burdened by the word "concubine" all her life, but she didn't expect that her daughter would also be impliced by herself. That's the only opportunity for their mother and daughter to turn over. How can it be?!

However, no matter how much she hates, she can only break her teeth and swallow them into her stomach. She can only curse Ling Xiao every day not to be selected, otherwise their mother and daughter will be trampled upside down.

Unexpectedly, Ling Guan would risk the crime of bullying the king to exchange a civet cat for a prince!

Qiluo can live so well in the Ling family. Naturally, he will not be naive enough to think that the reason why Ling Guan did this was just to spoil their mother and daughter.

Over the years, probably no one will know her husband better than her. There is no benefit, just risky things, he will never do.

But if you think about it for a moment, it's not difficult to guess. Look at that Lingxiao. Although he looks good, he doesn't have any personality at all. He is only 16 years old, but he dresses like a rural village woman all day long. His hands are also rough because of long-term rough work. Even reading calligraphy, singing, etc., there is no merit at all.

Even if such a person is sent to the palace, it's just a waste of a place, and it also involves Lingfu being laughed at by outsiders. On the other hand, her daughter Yue Chan's appearance is not inferior to Ling Xiao, and she can dress up and has a good temperament. Although the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are average, she is better than singing and dancing. In addition, Yue Chan is talented. If she can enter the palace, she will definitely be retained. It will be a matter of time before she is favored.

In this case, it is no wonder that Ling Guan is willing to take this risk.

No matter what the purpose of Ling Guan is, at least for Qiluo, if her daughter can choose the imperial concubine, she can completely turn over and enjoy endless glory and wealth. With such a good thing, how can you stand it if you don't show off in front of Shen Murou's mother and daughter?
