Chapter 20 Take a Step to Talk

Huang Paozi smiled and said: "Clean up, so there is no need to clean up. Presumably Ling'er has her own plans, so I won't ask more questions about this matter. It's rare for you and my brother to meet each other. There must be a lot of things to say, just for brother I'm busy with business, and I will hold a banquet for my brother in the back garden in the evening, so you can come when the time comes."

Hearing what he said, Li Mao and Li Ling hurriedly got up and saluted, then walked out of the palace, and when they arrived at the post house, Li Ling went back to his room very unhappy, but Xiao Linger lay on the couch with her legs crossed, holding a root Fishing rod on the lake.

Not long after, Li Mao came, and before he could speak, Li Ling also came. He pulled Li Mao and said, "Father, you really want the emperor to meddle in my marriage?"

Li Mao pushed his hand away and said, "Otherwise?"

Li Ling was in a hurry: "Father, you know, if he meddles in other matters, I don't agree with this matter."

"Bastard, that's the emperor." Li Mao said angrily.

At this moment, little Ling'er looked back at them, and said unhurriedly: "Yo, are you done seeing? Can we go to the palace to have a royal banquet tonight?"

Li Ling said in surprise, "How do you know?"

Xiao Ling'er smiled and said nothing, at this moment Li Mao stepped forward and said, "Can you really count?"

Little Ling'er grinned and said: "My lord, this is a common practice, does it count?"

Li Mao realized at this time that this is really a common practice, he smiled: "I am the one who was abrupt, you guys talk, I am afraid I can't take you with me tonight, I have wronged you."

Little Ling'er waved her hand: "This is your own family business, I'm fine here."

Li Mao left with a smile. Li Ling wanted to persuade him, but Li Mao winked at him and said in a low voice, "You think father can make the decision?" It was obvious that he didn't want the emperor to intervene in Li Ling's marriage. .

Li Ling understood, and it was obvious that he was looking for Xiao Ling'er to ask for an explanation. Li Ling approached Xiao Ling'er, smiled and said, "Did you catch any fish?"

At this time, Xiao Ling'er lifted the fishing rod, but there was not even a hook on the fishing rod. At this time, she put down the fishing line again. Li Ling was puzzled: "How can you fish without a hook?"

But Xiao Ling'er looked back at him: "The emperor wants to give you a marriage?"

Li Ling was suddenly surprised: "Can you really figure it out?"

Little Ling'er smiled, but did not speak, Li Ling sighed: "You hit the mark."

Little Ling'er shook her head and sighed: "Hey, it's a test."

Li Ling was surprised again: "Where did you say that?"

Little Ling'er lay on the recliner and said leisurely: "Did the emperor say that General Guo has a little girl?"

Li Ling nodded quickly, and Xiao Ling'er said with a smile: "He has soldiers."

Li Ling hurriedly said, "My father didn't agree."

Little Ling'er said: "My lord is very smart, does that mean that Mr. Xu, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, has a girl?"

When Li Ling heard this, he nodded like pecking at rice, and Xiao Ling'er continued: "People have the right."

Li Ling asked in surprise, "Then what does he mean?"

But little Linger said: "There are soldiers and power, isn't it good? Pave the way for you."

Li Ling said nonchalantly, "It's easy for you to say, why should he pave the way for me?"

Little Ling'er said: "It's time for you to get married too."

Li Ling was angry: "What do you mean, don't think I don't know, you are a person who has lived for hundreds of years, it is impossible for you to not know about these men and women, I don't want others to interfere in my marriage, and I don't want to be someone else's pawn I'm just asking you, how can the emperor dispel this idea?"

Little Ling'er laughed: "Are you not willing to beg for a wife by others?"

"Do you want to?"

Xiao Ling'er smiled and said, "I'm a woman, I don't need a wife."

"Then I will ask the emperor to give you a marriage by the way."

"Do you think I will listen to him?" Xiao Linger retorted.

Li Ling also said, "Then I won't listen to him either." After speaking, he glanced at Xiao Ling'er angrily.

Little Ling'er continued to fish, and said while fishing: "You can't do it, you don't listen to him, it's against the edict, I'm a person of unknown origin, he can't do anything with me, you are the prince, he has plenty of ways to torment you. "

"Then there's nothing else to do?"

Little Ling'er replied with a smile: "Unless you are already married."

"Then I will marry you."

With a bang, little Ling'er jumped up from the chair, pointed at Li Ling and cursed: "You bastard, I'm still a child, so you can do it?" Then she blushed and left.

Behind him, Li Ling said to himself: "Son, you have lived for 500 years. If you are still a child, can't I wait for you to grow up?"

Having said that, I felt my face was hot. After a while, Li Mao got out from behind the pillar, and asked in a daze, "How is it? Senior, do you have any advice?"

Li Ling blushed and said: "Father, don't everyone be a senior, she is just a child."

Li Mao suddenly raised his eyes and said, "Are you stupid? I have practiced Taoism for decades, do you really think I am stupid? I can see at a glance that she is not simple. Have you ever seen a child who can do mental calculations like her?

If she hadn't suffered from dwarfism since she was a child, she would probably be older than me. I asked you to ask her, not to make you irritate him. You child, I can't tell you. Forget it, I will ask myself? "

"Father, what is dwarfism?" Li Ling was very puzzled.

Li Mao said: "I read about your father in a book, it is a disease that never grows up."

After speaking, Li Mao chased Xiao Linger and left, but Li Ling frowned and said to himself: "There is such a disease in the world? It's a pity."

At this time Li Mao had already arrived outside Xiao Ling'er's house, Xiao Ling'er calmed down a bit, then walked out, greeted Li Mao with a blessing, and said, "Your Highness is looking for me?"

Li Mao said with a smile: "Senior, I have something to ask."

In fact, little Ling'er had guessed it long ago, and said: "Is it the emperor's gift of marriage?"

Li Mao nodded quickly and said, "Senior Huizhi Lanxin."

Xiao Ling'er sighed: "You also see that it's a temptation?"

Li Mao nodded: "Senior, this king is an idle person, and he doesn't want to get involved in this imperial court. If the emperor intervenes in this matter, then we really can't be alone. This king has nothing to ask for, just a safe and secure life." .”

Little Ling'er frowned slightly: "Then what does the son mean?"

Li Mao shook his head: "He definitely doesn't want to either. Who wants to get into this muddy water? I hope the seniors can help out with ideas."

Xiao Ling'er smiled: "Could it be that the prince really has no such plan?"

Li Mao frowned immediately: "There seems to be something in your words."

Little Ling'er smiled and said: "My lord, if you regard me as your own, then you should tell the truth. I have an idea, but if it's not what the lord wants, then even if I have an idea, it may not necessarily suit the lord." mind."

When Li Mao heard this, he quickly looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he said to Xiao Ling'er: "Senior, can I take a step to talk?"
