Chapter 223

Ling Ruozhi took it and stretched out her hand to stroke it, "Sheng'er, you are tired."

"I'm not tired. Eldest sister cares about me so much that I'm almost in tears. It's more important than anything else for you to take good care of your health. I really agree with this marriage. I think I can live a few more years if I marry a eunuch."

Ling Shengge giggled, and then looked at Mrs. Cheng and Ling Ruozhi shyly, "When I was young, a doctor said that I would not live to be an adult, but now that I grow up, I am in good health, but with my current appearance, I would not dare to marry If you marry another man and don’t have children, you have to help take concubines, so it’s better to marry a eunuch and save yourself trouble.”

After hearing Ling Shengge's words, Ling Ruozhi and Madam Cheng looked at each other, for some reason they suddenly felt that Ling Shengge's words made sense.

Ling Ruozhi and Madam Cheng were persuaded to go back by Ling Shengge not long after they stayed in Zhuangzi. If Ling Ruozhi came by herself, she would be very willing to let Ling Ruozhi stay for a while, and let her mother and Ling Ruozhi meet Meet.But with Mrs. Cheng around, she dismissed the idea.

Seeing that Ling Ruozhi really treated her well, and ran out of the city to find her regardless of her health, Ling Shengge was very moved.

When Ling Tao came over later, Ling Ruichen also came. Although Ling Ruichen knew that the matter was a foregone conclusion, he still asked Ling Shengge if he really wanted to?

Seeing Ling Ruichen's appearance of going to the emperor to argue if she said she didn't do it voluntarily, Ling Shengge quickly told Ling Ruichen that she did it voluntarily.

Ling Ruichen sighed when he saw that Ling Shengge really didn't look like he was being forced.

Through this incident, Ling Shengge could also see who in the Hou family was really good to her. She remembered how Ling Ruozhi and Ling Ruichen treated her, and she would definitely treat them well in the future.

Ling Shengge thought that her marriage to the chief eunuch would cause a wave of gossip in Ling'an City, but when Xiaoyue and Lingdang went out to inquire about the news and came back, they told her that the common people didn't talk about it at all.

Such a big news is not publicized?Ling Shengge felt that the ancient people were too lacking in the spirit of entertainment, and they didn't even notice the eyes of gossip.

If it is placed in modern times, it will be the headlines of entertainment, and it should occupy the number one hot search on Weibo for at least three days.

Although it is strange why the common people are so calm?But Ling Shengge was completely relieved.

Now that the marriage is settled, I won't worry about getting married again in the future.

In other words, why do you feel a little lost after learning that you and the eunuch are engaged?Mu Changhuan really doesn't care so much?
Ling Shengge patted himself on the head with his hand, why should he think about that ruthless guy, wouldn't he like to see her get engaged to the eunuch, and next time he will come to see how she threw him out with a basin of water.

Jing'an Palace.

Jun Tianyao threw all the things that could be dropped in the study, and Lan Yantong and Lan Yanhao couldn't stop him from being on the sidelines. They had to wait for Jun Tianyao to finish the throwing and let the servants of the palace clean up the study.

"My lord, calm down!" Lan Yantong couldn't help but take a step forward when he saw Jun Tianyao sitting on the chair with his chest heaving violently.

Jun Tianyao's face was so ugly that he had never been able to control his emotions like now.

"Father would rather give Ling Shengge to an eunuch than let me marry her. You two say, what does father mean?"

Although Lan Yanhao also felt wronged for Jun Tianyao, he dared not add fuel to the flames now, "My lord, the emperor's intention is obviously that he doesn't want the Houfu to show off anymore, maybe it's not against you."

Jun Tianyao sneered, "You don't know how many people Mu Changhuan has helped the father eradicate for so many years. The father trusts him more than us sons. This king thinks that Mu Changhuan must have found something. Let the royal father have doubts about the king."

"My lord, what if the emperor really has suspicions?" Lan Yanhao couldn't hold back at such a young age.

Jun Tianyao's eyes sank, "Go back and tell Uncle that the plan remains unchanged."

Lan Yantong and Lan Yanhao looked at each other and nodded, "Since the lord has made up his mind, let's go back home and tell father."

After the Lan brothers left, Jun Tianyao slapped the table, it was just an engagement, and when his plan was successful, he snatched Ling Shengge over.

Before Jun Tianyao's plan was implemented, there were new changes.

Three days later, Jun Chengyi decreed that the eunuch Mu Changhuan, the eunuch of Tianqing Sidi Haosi, and the fourth lady of the Dingyuan Houfu had a big wedding on the seventh day of July.

Not to mention Jun Tianyao was fooled, Ling Shengge was also fooled.

"Father, daddy!" Ling Shengge blocked the doorway of Grandpa Hou who was about to hide in her mother's room when Ling Tao came over.

"Shengge." Ling Tao didn't expect Emperor Tan to set the date of marriage as soon as he bestowed the marriage, and he felt that it was very embarrassing to see his daughter wanting to eat people.

"Father, what was agreed was only for engagement? Why did the prince not get married yet, but why did the eunuch want to get married in advance?"

Ling Shengge heard the news without the slightest preparation. It was the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, hehe, that would be seven days later.

Three months after the wedding between the crown prince and Ling Qiandie, Ling Shengge thought that he would never be able to catch up with Ling Qiandie, but he did not expect to be ahead of Ling Qiandie.

Ling Tao smiled wryly, "Sheng'er, dad thought it was just an engagement, how could he have thought that the emperor would set the date of marriage so soon."

Damn, that little bastard Mu Changhuan dared to tease him.

Ling Shengge looked at Ling Tao with a mournful face, "Father, what should I do?"

Ling Tao stretched out his hand and patted Ling Shengge's head, "Father went to the palace to look for the emperor, and will delay your marriage no matter what."

Seeing Ling Tao's determination, Ling Shengge suddenly panicked, "Father, never mind, he's just a eunuch anyway, so marry as soon as he gets married! Could it be that he can do something to me?"

If the dead eunuch dared to blaspheme her, she would give him a poison to make him a real dead eunuch.

"Sheng'er, dad won't let you be wronged, don't worry." Ling Tao decided to talk to Mu Changhuan.

Ling Shengge returned to the room, resting his chin in thought, what does it feel like to be married?

Dragon Palace.

Jun Chengyi glanced at Mu Changhuan, "I have issued an imperial decree according to your wishes. Is it possible that something is going to happen if you are so eager?"

Mu Changhuan smiled faintly, "Your Majesty, before the draft banquet, I want to help the Emperor get rid of those who have dislikes to the Emperor. The minister's wedding is just a trigger, and the Emperor will be able to clearly see who wants to treat the Emperor. unfavorable."

Jun Chengyi narrowed his eyes, "Do you think King Jing'an has a different heart?"

"I never make rash assertions, and I dare not slander the prince without solid evidence."

Jun Chengyi paced up and down the hall with his hands on his back, "What if he really acts rashly?"

"Then you have to ask the emperor. After all, King Jing'an is the emperor's own son. If the emperor is not willing to part with it, the officials will not dare to do anything to him." Mu Changhuan's voice was evil.

Jun Chengyi's eyes darkened, "I'll give him a chance, if he can continue to be my good son, I won't do anything bad to him."

"Then what if he doesn't? Maybe King Jing'an already knew that Concubine Lan died because of the emperor."

Jun Chengyi's expression paused, and then a murderous intent appeared in his eyes, "I leave this matter to you, if he really wants to turn against me... remember to leave him a whole body."

The corners of Mu Changhuan's mouth hooked invisibly, "Minister, obey the order."

Back in Mu Mansion, Mu Changhuan saw that the inside and outside of the mansion were decorated very festively, and Zuo Gong and You Shou were asking people to hang red lanterns on the trees.

"Master, you are back!" You Shou ran over as if asking for credit, "The whole house has been arranged, what else can the master order?"

Mu Changhuan glanced at You Shou approvingly, "That's right, after I get married, Zhang Luo will help you marry Ling Dang."

Youshou's eyes lit up, "Master is wise."

Zuo Gong came over with an account book, "Master, there are too many dowries to fit in one list, and all the subordinates are recorded in this book, please take a look at it, master."

After taking it, Mu Changhuan flipped through it, "I asked someone to customize a set of jewelry from the South China Sea pearls and add them in. The tribute fruit from the Western Regions, the wine from the Eastern Qiang, and the golden dagger from Beizhen were all added in."

"Your subordinate will add it now." Zuo Gong ran to the study to continue adding things to the betrothal gift.

While writing the gift list, Zuo Gong's cheeks twitched. The master is going to send the entire Mu Mansion as a betrothal gift. I don't know if the lady of the Ling family will accept it?
If Ling Shengge married to Mu Mansion, would the maids around her have to marry too?So that stinky girl Xiaoyue dangles in front of his eyes every day?Thinking about it will make my hair explode!

The Mu Mansion occupies a large area in the entire Ling'an City, and the luxurious decoration in the mansion is enough to show Emperor Tan's favor and indulgence for Mu Changhuan.

Mu Changhuan is not a good person, and honesty has nothing to do with him. He entered the palace when he was a child and grew up in the palace. After so many years, he knows how to make Emperor Tan rest assured that he will use him.

An official who is not greedy for money and not lustful, and works hard without any intentions is definitely a good official in the hearts of the common people, but he will be more defensive in the hearts of those in power.

Such examples are not without, and how many good officials have ended miserably.

Although Mu Changhuan is an eunuch who lacks interest in sex, he is very greedy. How greedy is he?As long as Emperor Tan wants him to die, there will be 1 handles and evidence to chop off his head.

Because of this, Emperor Tan trusted him more, because Emperor Tan knew his ambitions, and he had a way to get rid of him as quickly as possible.

Knowing a person is always more secure than not being able to see through a person. Mu Changhuan just exposed his greed to make Emperor Tan feel at ease.

Although Mu Changhuan was not a good person, none of the people in Ling'an City said he was bad.

Just like what he said to Ling Shengge, he has a pretty good reputation among the people. Although he has a violent reputation, he has never done anything to persecute the people.

Those who were investigated by Di Haosi were all corrupt people who committed heinous crimes and committed heinous crimes. If he eliminated a bad person, he would save countless ordinary people, which can be regarded as a benefit to the people.

The big wedding was scheduled for seven days later, and the entire Jin Kingdom probably didn't have such a wedding in such a hurry. Ling Tao's anxious hair turned gray again, and he was worried to death every day.

"Master Hou, someone from the Supervisor of Rituals has sent a list of dowry gifts for Master Hou to have a look at." Ling Dong walked into Ling Tao's study with a thick book.
