Yan Cigui.

Liu Xun was silent.

He didn't listen to a word of what his father said, but he couldn't refute, so he shut up first.

Liu Jing saw it, and said earnestly: "I'm doing it for your own good. It's not easy to fight in the officialdom. If you don't have any background and want to make it to the top, how can there be such a good thing?"

Just like himself.

A candidate from a foreign country, if he hadn't married a girl from Fuguo Duke's mansion, given his age and qualifications, how could he be able to worship the minister of Honglu Temple?

Around the Qianbu Corridor, the top leaders of the five temples and six divisions have either spent more than ten or twenty years in the imperial court than him, or they have rich family education and outstanding elders at the top.

But Liu Jing still complained.

After the old man married his daughter, he really turned a blind eye and closed his eyes, and didn't care about his son-in-law at all.

His achievements today are all due to his own hard work and hard work, as well as the spontaneous help of others for Xu Mang's sake.

Honglu Temple is also the only fourth-rank yamen in the five temples. The fourth-rank officials are indeed outstanding, but in the capital, where there is no shortage of second-rank officials and the streets are full of royal relatives, it is still a little bit of a meaning.

If Xu Mang could pave the way, he could still take a few more steps forward.

A person's lifespan is limited, and the ups and downs of the officialdom can last five or sixty years, which is already extremely capable, and most of them retire after two to thirty years.

Therefore, if you take a few more steps when you are young, you will be able to take the lead in the years to come by taking a few steps in the Golden Temple.

Sangu and Sangong, that is Liu Jing's pursuit.

Now it doesn't mean that there is no chance, but he was able to run, but he limped because of Xu Mang's neglect. Liu Jing felt angry when he thought about it.

This is why he wants Liu Xun to climb up.

When the father's journey is not finished, the son will continue to walk, if one generation is not enough, there will be two generations.

"Princess Ning'an is an excellent candidate," Liu Jing continued to warn his son, "The title is her own, and the empress dowager loves and protects her. Except for the current princess and the princesses in the prince's mansion, she has the most outstanding status." .

Sincerely, the uncle's house is friendly and easy to talk to. The uncle only has this one daughter. In the future, the family property will be given to his nephew, and he will only look towards his daughter.

As long as you can win over the princess and have the support of your father and Mount Tai, are you afraid that you won't be able to make a big splash? "

Liu Xun still didn't listen.

Who said that only the only daughter will definitely turn to the son-in-law?

Isn't the one in front of him a counterexample?

What's more, after hard work and hard work, in the end, he only has an official hat, can he compare with Xu Jian's position as the Duke of the Kingdom?
Even if there is no real power and no business, the Duke is still the Duke.

Then again, how old is Princess Ning'an?

13 years old, 14 years old?

Isn't that similar to Liu Ping?
He hadn't seen Liu Ping for more than a year, but his sister was just a bean sprout in his memory, with no front and no back, it was tasteless.

You have to have a figure like Yueniang's to win over people.

After a slander, Liu Xun was not stupid enough to say it.

Seeing Liu Jing staring at him, he answered honestly: "When I go to the Palace of Compassion with the Prince tomorrow, my son will leave a good impression on the princess."

Hearing these words, Liu Jing was finally half-satisfied: "I don't care what's going on with Yue Niang, you send it out earlier, don't let your mother and Ah Ping see it, it will save a lot of trouble."

When Liu Xun heard this, he was about to say a few words, but Liu Jing didn't let him speak.

"I know what you want to say," Liu Jing said, "Everyone has a favorite, and it's not impossible for you to like that kind of person, but you have to remember that you are nothing now, and when you marry the princess, you will be in court. Now that you have a place of your own, it’s not too late for you to accept a few more you like. Why are you so eager?”

With a pale face, Liu Xun wanted to say, "What's the difference?" Can teenagers and decades be the same thing?
I wanted to say again, "Father, you also came here when you were young, don't you understand", but when the words came to my lips, I swallowed them.

His father probably really didn't understand.

In my father's eyes, there has always been only the hard work in the court, and everything is for the official position.

What Yingying Yanyan loves and loves is not worth mentioning compared with being outstanding.

Liu Jing saw that he hesitated to speak and seemed to give up his defense, so he patted him on the back and said, "It's good that you can understand my father's painstaking efforts. Wait to say hello to your mother, and then take a good rest. I just I asked for half a day off, and I still have to go back to the yamen."

Liu Xun said quickly, "Your business is urgent."

Liu Jing nodded.

The father and son left the study, one to the main entrance and the other to the backyard.

When they parted ways, Liu Jing gave another warning: "I hope that when I come back from the Yamen, there will be no Yueniang and Xingniang at home."

In the morning, the autumn rain stopped several times, and it really stopped near noon.

Sheng Jia arrived at the Palace of Compassion and Peace, and Lin Yunyan greeted him outside the main hall.

"How is the Empress Dowager?" asked the Holy Majesty.

Lin Yunyan replied: "Your Majesty wakes up in good spirits today. I heard that you are coming over for lunch. My Majesty is very happy."

The Holy Majesty nodded slightly, and looked at Lin Yunyan carefully.

He watched Lin Yunyan grow up.

From the little baby with a milky voice to the present cardamom girl, I just feel very kind, and now I have a closer look at her appearance...

She is a beauty embryo, and after a year or two her facial features will be opened, it will become even more unbelievable.

Speaking of which, Lin Yunyan's parents are both good-looking, so it is no surprise to have such a daughter.

Yes.

Xu Jian also has good looks inherited from her parents.

On this point, it is quite appropriate.

"I'm going to talk to the Empress Dowager." After the Holy Majesty finished speaking, he stepped into the main hall.

Lin Yunyan didn't follow, and turned around to go to the West Side Hall.

In the sleeping hall.

The Holy Majesty smiled and said: "The Queen Mother's complexion looks much better."

"No matter how bad it is, all of these will make Ai's family torment, and Ai's family will feel uncomfortable. They can't hit the horse hanger, and they can't eat big fish and meat. It's so boring," the empress dowager also laughed when she said that. No more detours, straight to the point and said, "Is there something important to mention to the Ai family?"

The saint nodded.

Apart from their mother and son in the dormitory, only Mother Wang stood there.

The Holy Majesty saw it in his eyes, and praised in his heart: the people in front of the queen mother are all smart people.

Nanny Wang sent her staff away early in the morning, but Ning An didn't come in at all.

"There is something I want to ask the Queen Mother for her opinion," the Holy Majesty lowered his voice, "Ning An's age should also be the time to discuss marriage? Does the Queen Mother have someone in mind?"

The Empress Dowager looked at Her Majesty in surprise.

She dotes on Lin Yunyan, and often calls people to the Palace of Compassion and Ning, but Lin Yunyan has a grandmother and a father above her, and if it is a matter of the Lin family, how can she make the decision?
If the Lin family asks, she can give an opinion, but she won't do it for her.

It is impossible for the Holy Majesty to fail to understand the reason for this, so...

"Could it be that Hao Erlang, who is in love with the Holy Spirit, wants to hold this red line?" the Empress Dowager asked.
