Chapter 72
After the banquet was over, Qi Luo and Dong Shi left the palace with the flow of people.Standing outside the palace gate, Qi Luo couldn't help turning her head. The Forbidden City was still so majestic, but Qi Luo didn't have the same feeling as when she first came here. She never wanted to go in again, no matter how beautiful the palace pavilions inside were. .Ling Zhu got rid of those fawning people, bid farewell to his good friend Jue Luo Shuyi and others, and then came to his wife and daughter.Snowflakes fell in the sky again, one by one, Ling Zhu raised his head to see the snowflakes flying all over the sky, and finally calmed down, "Let's go home quickly!" Today is a very important day for everyone in Ling Zhu's family. On a frightening day, Qi Luo climbed into the carriage holding the jewelry bestowed by the emperor.

Dong Shi gently helped Qi Luo rub her knee and asked gently, "Does it still hurt? Does it matter?"

"It's okay, Er Niang, I scared you today!" Qi Luo said while holding Dong Shi's hand.Mrs. Dong shook her head and said, "I'm fine, but I don't think you, Ama, are very happy, your face is gloomy, and you don't have the joy of being promoted or titled at all."

Qi Luo doesn't know what happened to his father, is he angry because his wish was not fulfilled?Their family has gained a lot today. With Ling Zhu's current official position, even if he is accused of marrying him in the future, he will not be like the fourth elder brother.As soon as Qi Luo helped Mrs. Dong get out of the carriage, he saw firecrackers being set off in his home. The crackling was very lively. Qi Luo couldn't help covering his ears, and when the smoke from the fireworks dissipated, he saw Butler Qin with A group of servants knelt neatly in front of the mansion, shouting excitedly, "Congratulations to the master! Congratulations to the master for being promoted to the Viscount Zhiyuan."

Ling Zhu's gloomy face slowly eased, "You guys are very well informed! Get up, getting promoted is also a big happy event, Lao Qin, you go and tell the accountant that the monthly money will double this month to make everyone happy Let me know." After speaking, Ling Zhu asked Mrs. Dong for his opinion with his eyes, and Mrs. Dong nodded without any objection.Qi Luo didn't know when his father had called Butler Qin Old Qin, and he couldn't help blinking at the difference.

When the servants heard that the money doubled this month, they couldn't help but said happily, "Thank you, my master, for your reward. The servants wish you a higher career." Ling Zhu waved to them, and entered the gate of his mansion. The plaque on the door will be tomorrow. It's time to change, my family has been in the Qing Dynasty for almost two years, and my title has been promoted again and again, Ling Zhu can't help but secretly proud.

Entering the door of the main room, Qi Luo felt warm rushing towards his face, Qi Luo couldn't help shaking off the snow on his body, wrinkled his little nose that was a little cold and red, and kindly helped Ling Zhu pat the falling snow on his body, Ling Zhu saw Such Qi Luo could not help but smile, but when he thought of Qi Luo's performance today, the smile on his face disappeared.

Nanny Zhao directed the maids to serve hot tea to Ling Zhu's family, and Nanny Zhao said happily, "No wonder the magpies kept screaming this morning? It's really a joy from the sky. In a blink of an eye, the master became a Viscount. It's really great." Congratulations! This servant congratulates the master and wife." Madam Zhao is really happy, she is Dong's dowry, and she accompanied Dong all the way here, never thought that Dong would become a viscountess, and Ling Zhu now It couldn't be better for Mrs. Dong, and Mrs. Dong gave birth to a son again. There is nothing more perfect than this.

Ling Zhu picked up the hot tea and took a sip, feeling a lot warmer and more comfortable in his stomach. He saw Aunt Liu coming too, and he hadn't seen her for a long time.Now Mrs. Liu is dressed plainly, and the gaze she looks at her is no longer so seductive. Maybe she is really thinking about it. Ling Zhu is actually very satisfied with Mrs. Liu's performance. After all, he is a man. It's really hard not to make mistakes when you're always under temptation.Ling Zhu put down his teacup, and said gently to Qi Huan, "You were rewarded by the emperor to study in the Imperial College, do you have a charter?"

When Liu Shi heard Ling Zhu's words, she looked at Qi Huan full of surprises, and Liu Shi felt that she seemed to have hope.Qi Huan looked at his mother, lowered his head and thought for a while, and said, "The reason why my son can go to the Imperial College is because the emperor values ​​Ama. My son will definitely work hard and will not disappoint Ama's hope."

"You can't say that completely. If you were incompetent, the emperor would not make such a decision. I am very pleased that you have performed very well today. You are a smart child. I won't say anything more, just I need to tell you something."

Qi Huan said seriously, "Ama please reprimand me."

Ling Zhu thought for a while, tapped the table a few times with his fingers, and said seriously, "I am the one who has gained the most from the ministers today. Now I want to assist Lord Yang Kang in his military training, so I will definitely be at the forefront of the storm." Among them, you will also attract the attention of all parties. I have no knowledge. I don't know what the situation in the Imperial College is like, and I can't help you. You have to be careful and don't be dragged into various forces. You have to remember that our family is completely loyal to the emperor. As for learning, you have to be careful, and you must not be complacent. Guozijian is the highest school in the Qing Dynasty, and the teachers there must be rich in knowledge. You have to study hard , Ama will be waiting for you to win the first prize in the future!"

Qi Huan said assuredly, "Yes, what Ahma said, my son has written it down, and my son will definitely not cause trouble for Ahma. My son must be upbeat and study hard."

Ling Zhu nodded in satisfaction and said, "If you need anything, tell Madam, don't treat yourself badly." Mrs. Dong also nodded quickly and said, "Yes, you don't have to be too polite with me. In the future, it will be us who will be promising you. The glory of the family, you have to work harder to live up to your mother's hopes for you."

Qi Huan nodded, he knew that although his aunt was a little jealous and took a closer look at his Ama, she treated his mother and child very thoughtfully and meticulously, and he had never suffered any ill treatment for what he had eaten. .Qi Huan has also heard about other wives and concubines fighting for power, he thinks that his own home is actually quite good and comfortable.Besides, the most important thing is that my Ama loves and respects Mrs. Dong from the heart, and my mother has no hope at all.

"Well, I still have something to say to my wife alone, Qi Huan, go back and rest!" Ling Zhu said while drinking tea.

Seeing that Dong Shi and Qi Luo were the only ones left in the room, Ling Zhu didn't speak, but just drank tea silently.Mrs. Dong quickly winked at Qi Luo, who understood Ling Zhu's arm and said coquettishly, "Ama, congratulations, my father is the best, come, give me a kiss." Whenever something good happens, Qi Luo will always kiss Ling Zhu on the cheek as a celebration.Ling Zhu looked at the delicate daughter in front of him and sighed, but still let Qi Luo kiss his cheek.

Due to the close distance, Qi Luo noticed that Ling Zhu's forehead was red and swollen. Qi Luo suddenly understood that it was caused by Ling Zhu's constant kowtow to Kangxi. Rubbing Ling Zhu's forehead, "Ama, I'm sorry, is it still hurting?" Dong Shi had actually noticed that her husband's forehead was red and swollen, but she never said it. She knew that Ling Zhu might have something to tell Qi Luo.

Ling Zhu asked Qi Luo to rub his forehead, slowly closed his eyes, and asked, "What do you think about today's events?"

"Is today's event really as thrilling as riding a roller coaster? I didn't expect Ama to perform so well in front of Kangxi. Although Kangxi did not agree to the request of independent marriage, but with Ama's hard work, I think I will definitely get rid of that established It's fate, it's just that Ama is too high-profile now, it's a bit dangerous! Ama, you must be careful."

Ling Zhu pulled Qi Luo's hand from his forehead, opened his eyes, and said, "You don't have any opinion on your performance today?"

Qi Luo shook her head in confusion, she didn't know what her father had to say, "I know I've hurt Amma today, I'm sorry, I won't do this again in the future. Amma, please forgive me!"

"What is involved or not? We are all a family. Qi Luo, you must remember that you are my daughter and the person I love the most in my life. You have always been sensible and smart. I am very dissatisfied with your performance today. The most important thing is that you don't know what you did wrong now? You let me down," Qi Luo had never let her parents down before, and when she heard Ling Zhu say this, she felt that something was a little serious.

Ling Zhu made up his mind and said, "From today onwards, you will stay in your own yard, you are not allowed to go anywhere, and you don't need to learn anything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. You should reflect on your behavior today, when will you want to understand?" Come talk to me again." Ling Zhu looked up, but didn't look at Qi Luo who was in a daze, and walked straight to the inner room.

Qi Luo looked at Dong with tears in her eyes and said, "Emiang, what's wrong with Ama? Why did it happen all of a sudden!" Dong sighed and said, "Go back and think about it, your Ama should be for you Good." Patting Qi Luo on the shoulder, Mrs. Dong also walked into the inner room.Qi Luo felt as if he had been abandoned, standing pitifully and alone.

I don't know if I can guess what Ling Zhu's father wants Qi Luo to understand?Not only did I get the contract, but I also got the help of Lingzhiwu, who made me a beautiful cover, sprinkle flowers, it is worth celebrating!So I am ashamed to say that I didn’t write all day yesterday, I just wandered around the Internet!hehe!It seems that I have to work hard today, because tomorrow is the weekend!I said that I plan to have two updates!
