The next day.
Qingfeng Pavilion in the General’s Mansion.
While Yinghua was combing Baili Feiyue's hair, Suyi ran in and said, "Miss, the imperial edict from the palace requires the master to bring the Ninth Young Master and all the young ladies in the mansion, including you, to attend the Qionglin Banquet."
Baili Feiyue curled the corners of her lips slightly, Ha, it came so quickly!
The news that Ling Duannian had recovered from his illness was just spread yesterday afternoon, and today the imperial edict came to the palace. What does Emperor Jing want to do?
When Baili Feiyue brought Yinghuan and Suyi to the gate of the mansion, a long line of carriages were already ready.
Baili Feiyue walked towards Ling Sheng, "Dad, the Qionglin Banquet is a banquet held for the new candidates. It's normal for you to go as a court official. What's wrong with us going?"
The subtext is, maybe there is some conspiracy.
"You think too much. Before Duan Nian was exposed as a man, His Majesty mentioned him to me, but at that time, due to Duan Nian's health, His Majesty was not able to summon him. Now that he is well, it is normal for His Majesty to take the opportunity of the Qionglin Banquet to meet him."
Baili Feiyue didn't know why her father trusted the royal family so much. She had always been able to speculate about the royal family with as much malice as possible. But seeing her father said so, she didn't insist on this question and went anyway.
"Then what are we going to do?"
Ling Sheng glanced at his daughters getting on the carriage and said, "You are all old now. I am afraid that if something happens at the border, I will have to leave suddenly again. So this time..."
Baili Feiyue guessed it before he finished speaking, so she simply took these Miss Ling to the Qionglin Banquet to see if there were any suitable young talents and arrange the marriages for these Miss Ling.
This is understandable. After all, in a family like the Ling family, the daughters are not young anymore, but strictly speaking, none of them is married.
If this happened in another family, the girls would be old maids now and would be laughed at.
While they were talking here, Ling Yanran, who had entered the carriage first, looked at the figures of Baili Feiyue and Ling Sheng outside with vicious eyes.
What a loving father and filial daughter!
Thinking about what her father said to her and Ling Ruolan in the study yesterday, that after she entered Prince Qi's mansion, he would send her mother to a nunnery thousands of miles away.
Although, she now felt a little disappointed with her mother, who not only could not help her at all, but also held her back. She was absolutely useless!
However, how could she not hate and be angry after being framed by that bitch Ling Jing and the people from An Yuan and ended up in this situation!
After giving the two people who were still talking outside a cold and vicious look, Ling Yanran sneered.
hehe!
Ling Jing, you won't be so proud for long. The gates of hell are waiting for you!
In the other carriage, Ling Xinqin, who hadn't been out for a long time, didn't care about Ling Sheng and Baili Feiyue at all. Instead, she was full of impatience, "What's going on? There are so many of us waiting for him? Is it so great to be a son? Is he going or not?"
The maid in the car was so frightened that she almost covered her mouth and said in a low voice, "Miss, these words are not easy to say. What if someone hears them?"
What's so great?
Originally, Ling Xinqin had no feelings for the ninth sister who suddenly became the ninth brother, who died twice but failed to die and came back to life again, and the ninth brother whom she had never met.
Strictly speaking, she has no relatives in this mansion. She has to rely on herself and has no feelings for anyone.
What's more, the rumored ninth brother is close to the people in Qingfeng Pavilion, and he is not a good person after all the visits to treat illnesses.
Ling Xinqin didn't have any hope at all for a sickly person who had been ill for more than ten years.
"Miss, please be patient."
Isn't her patience enough? Before, she just wanted to wait for a suitable opportunity to plot against Shangguan Xun from the Prime Minister's Mansion so that she could marry into the Prime Minister's Mansion smoothly. Who knew that she would wait and wait until Ling Yanran's marriage with the Prime Minister's Mansion was cancelled! She waited until Shangguan Xun never came to the General's Mansion again, and she had no chance to make a move!
Thinking of this, he pinched the maid fiercely, "It's all your fault!"
The maidservant was in pain but did not dare to cry out.
"Miss……"
"Enough! Are you annoying me?" Doesn't she know how to be patient? But she must seize this opportunity! She must pick a suitable husband at the Qionglin Banquet, and it would be best if she could find a way to attract the emperor's attention and ask for his permission to marry her!
By then, she can move out of the Ling Mansion openly!
"Is that... Ninth Brother?" Suddenly, someone said in surprise. Ling Xinqin glanced out irritably, and then...
That’s all.
Ling Duannian went straight to Baili Feiyue and Ling Sheng. Baili Feiyue first took a look at his complexion, and found that he had indeed almost recovered. Of course, his body was not as good as that of an ordinary person for the time being, but after three to five months of recuperation, he would be completely fine.
Then I thought about what he was doing secretly, such as the huge auction, it was really...
"Sister, why are you looking at me like that?" Ling Duannian grabbed her hand, but Baili Feiyue opened it. "Where are you touching?"
What a cunning thing, he actually felt her pulse!
Ling Duannian smiled, revealing two cute dimples, but said a little aggrievedly, "Sister hit me so hard."
"Next time I touch you, it will hurt more." Although I want to try to be his elder sister and treat him as a relative, that doesn't mean I won't be on guard against him. Baili Feiyue rolled her eyes at him and got on the carriage first.
Everyone was present, and the line of carriages outside the general's mansion quickly set off.
In the carriage of Baili Feiyue and the other two, Yinghua sighed, "The Ninth Young Master is truly one of a kind in the world."
His mind and wisdom are unique in the world, Baili Feiyue chuckled in her heart.
With so many carriages in the general's mansion, they naturally attracted a lot of attention when passing through the street. Everyone stretched their necks, wanting to see what the rumored Young Master Ling Jiu looked like and whether he was really well.
However, apart from the carriage, nothing was seen.
More than half an hour later, the Ling Mansion's carriage arrived at the gate of the palace.
In addition to them, carriages from other mansions also arrived at the palace gate one after another.
When Baili Feiyue saw that the court officials all brought their daughters with them, she raised her eyebrows. It turned out that it was not just their Ling Mansion.
Everyone knew about Master Ling Jiu, who was raised as a daughter by the Ling family. When they saw Ling Sheng getting off the carriage, their eyes immediately turned to the carriage behind him.
"General Ling, we are all very curious about your son."
Someone came up to greet him, "A good father will have a good son. Your son must have inherited your style."
No matter what, children are happy to be praised. Even if it is just polite words, Ling Sheng always likes to hear others praise his children, sons and daughters alike. Seeing the people in the carriage behind him getting off, "Don't think, come here."
The two adults who were talking to him were stunned when they saw him. Although he was different from the heroic style of General Ling, he was really a young master with red lips, white teeth, and a beautiful and clear appearance!
They were stunned, and their daughter behind them blushed immediately. After taking a look, she was too embarrassed to raise her head.
The two adults also noticed it, "General Ling, let's go in first."
Just as everyone was about to go in, an elderly and kind eunuch came up with two young eunuchs. They saluted Ling Sheng and said, "General, the Queen Mother wants to see Miss Ling San. She asked me to pick her up."
