Chapter 166
Making shallow conversation was a major taboo when exchanging pleasantries
Imperial Doctor Wei obviously didn’t like to bring up his own affairs, and it was really presumptuous of her to ask so
Imperial Doctor Wei obviously rarely talked about these things with people, and after a moment of silence, he said, “It’s too much to say that the ancestral mansion is just a few dilapidated houses
There’s nothing to renovate”
Two of their siblings, one was a concubine in the Harem, and had no chance to leave the palace at all
There was also a doctor at the Imperial Hospital, who was busy all day long, where would they have time to go back?
Perhaps, there was also some inside information that was not known to outsiders
Ling Jingshu wisely stopped asking questions
The carriage was quiet again
After about a tea time, the carriage stopped
The driver got off the carriage and said apologetically, ”We are about to reach the palace gate in front of us, there are imperial guards guarding the gate, so it’s really inconvenient for our carriage to go through
Please also ask Imperial Doctor Wei to get off the carriage and walk over”
Imperial Doctor Wei smiled faintly and casually responded, “No matter, I will just walk over there myself”
Then he smiled at the crowd and said, “Thank you for sending me back to the Imperial Hospital, this place is close to the palace gates and is heavily guarded, so you don’t need to get off the carriage
Lest you cause unnecessary trouble”
After saying that, he led Tian Dong out of the carriage
Ling Xiao lifts the bamboo curtain and waves goodbye to Imperial Doctor Wei
Eunuch Wei is quite fond of the pure-hearted and cute teenager Ling Xiao, and knowing that Ling Xiao cannot see, he still waves his hand at Ling Xiao
Ling Jingshu also followed Ling Xiao’s gaze
Imperial Doctor Wei was slightly embarrassed
He was originally waving at Ling Xiao, but in this way, it was like he was waving at Ling Jingshu
It was always not good if the Ling family’s young granny and that Miss Ling Jingshu misunderstood
Ling Jingshu took in Eunuch Wei’s embarrassed expression and couldn’t help but purse her lips and smile
Compared to the coldness and indifference when they first met, Dr Wei was much more vivid and lovely
The carriage turned around
Ling Jingshu’s lips had been holding a smile, obviously in a good mood
Ling Jingyan, who had held her tongue for half a day, smiled with a wry smile, ”Ah Shu, the smile on your face hasn’t stopped since you left the Yan Wang Mansion, it seems that you’re in a good mood today!
It’s a pity that the journey was too short
Nor was I able to have a few good words with Eunuch Wei”
Ling Jingshu was slightly hot behind her ears, but on her face, she was calm and collected, “Dr Wei has worked very hard to cure Ah Xiao
Sending him back to the Imperial Hospital is a gesture of goodwill
My heart is happy
Cousin Yan is getting off on the wrong foot
Luckily, Imperial Doctor Wei has already left and didn’t hear these words, otherwise, how can I still have the face to bring Ah Xiao to see him in the future”
Ling Jingyan spat out her tongue and laughed playfully, “I was just joking around
How dare you talk nonsense in front of Eunuch Wei”The matter of going to the Yan Wang Mansion today, don’t hide it when you return to the mansion, it’s better to tell your in-laws about it”
Jiang gave Ling Jingshu a look, “With King Yan’s nature, there’s no guarantee that he’ll do anything in the future
We have to let them be mentally prepared”
Yes!
The Imperial Grandson had a strong sense of self-respect and a thin skin, so he was easier to deal with
Yan Wang is different!
With King Yan’s brazenness and domineering nature, it would not be surprising for him to come to the Ling family’s door
Thinking about this, Ling Jingshu also had a slight headache
After thinking about it, she nodded her head and agreed, “Cousin-in-law is right
Before, I hid the matter of the Yan King because I didn’t want to worry my great-uncle and great-uncle
Now it’s like this
It can’t be hidden any longer”When we return, please ask cousin-in-law to tell great-uncle aunt all about today’s events”
There were some things that she, the person in question, was not in a position to say more about, so Jiang was not so scrupulous
Jiang nodded in understanding
With the example of the last time, Sun didn’t seem anxious even after waiting for most of the day this time
She even asked with secret joy, “Today, His Royal Highness Taisun left you guys to have lunch in the Crown Prince’s residence again, didn’t he!”
Jiang’s coughed and responded, “Back to mother-in-law, today we were kindly invited by the King of Yan and were having lunch at the King of Yan’s residence”
Sun Clan: ” “Wasn’t it at the Crown Prince’s Mansion?
How did you get involved with King Yan again for good reason?
Sun was flabbergasted for a moment and anxiously pursued, “Yu Niang, what is all this about?”Grandmother-in-law, don’t be in a hurry, I’ll tell you everything that happened today”
Jiang spoke in a rather euphemistic and subtle manner
However, the fact that King Yan had suddenly appeared and invited all of them to the door as guests without being able to refuse, this matter itself was unusual in every way
Sun was no fool
She quickly heard the meaning of Jiang’s words
This King Yan was coming for Ling Jingshu!
Sun’s face was almost black!
How could this be!
No matter how honorable the Yan Wang’s status was, it was still no match for the Imperial Grandson
Moreover, the turbulence between the Yan King and the Eastern Palace had long been a well known secret
Master Ling’s heart is tied to the Eastern Palace, so there’s no way he’ll turn to the King of Yan
In case King Yan wanted to forcibly marry the Ling family’s daughter, it would be impossible to clear the air with King Yan at that time Great Auntie
It’s all my fault”
Ling Jingshu opened her mouth with an apologetic expression, “Although I had no intention of provoking King Yan, I have now caused this trouble for the Ling family”
Sun, no matter how annoyed and unhappy she was, she could not show it, squeezing out a smile and saying, “How can you be blamed for this
When your great uncle returns, I will discuss a countermeasure with him
You go back first and rest well, don’t think too much”
Ling Jingshu obediently nodded her head in response and retired with Ling Xiao
When everyone had left, Sun’s forced smile span down and she sighed heavily
This Ah Shu, it’s just enough to provoke the Taisun, why did she attract the attention of the Yan King!
The first master Ling returned from the evening entertainment, saw Sun’s face sad, surprised, asked: “What happened?
Look at you, why are you crying?”Master, something really big has happened!”
Sun sighed long and hard, then quickly told what happened during the day
Master Ling’s face changed and changed as he listened, and his drunkenness instantly disappeared
His Royal Highness Yan Wang’s temperament, your lordship should always know better than concubine, a woman of the inner house”
Sun frowned and said, “That is not a lord to be messed with
With the Empress backing him up, he acts in an overbearing manner
If he really is interested in A Shu, I’m afraid there will be no shortage of trouble in the future”
Grand Master Ling’s face sank as well, “No way!
A-shu must not get involved with Yan Wang!”
Sun let out a bitter smile, “Master, this is not a matter of whether A-shu is happy or not
From what I’ve seen, when A-shu mentioned King Yan, she was only disgusted and displeased, not joyful
The key is how the Yan King’s attitude is!”
If the King of Yan really has this in mind, as long as he persuades Empress Xu to issue an imperial decree, the Ling family can only obediently prepare the dowry even if they are no longer willing to do so
Master Ling sank his face and thought hard for a long time, finally had an idea: “This matter is not without a solution”
Sun’s spirit was revitalized: “Master what countermeasures?”
