Because the person who had just shown his aggressiveness didn't dare to bring anyone in in the end.
Yes, even if Ling Xinqin was stupid, she should have understood that whether she could live a good life in Prince Ming's Mansion in the future depended on this father. How could she dare to really disobey him?
Ling Sheng glanced at the children at the table who had different expressions on their faces. "Everyone is here, come eat. Eat well, and we'll go to Wufang Temple in the afternoon to burn incense for your grandparents."
The meal seemed to go smoothly because Ling Sheng was there.
They really meant burning incense. Both their grandparents were Buddhists, and Baili Feiyue knew this.
In his later years, he chose the quiet and remote Wufang Temple, where he rang the evening drum and morning bell every day.
Later, he died peacefully in Wufang Temple, and his tomb is behind the Wufang Temple.
She hasn't been there.
I vaguely remember that when I was very young, my father also went to Wufang Temple once before going to the war.
That time, Ling Ruolan, who was the oldest, was brought along.
During that time, her father was not in Kyoto, so every year Li took Ling Ruolan and Ling Yan'er to go to Wufang Temple to burn incense for her grandparents.
In Li's eyes, concubines and illegitimate children were so lowly that they were absolutely unworthy.
In the afternoon, several carriages set out from the General's Mansion.
Two people per car.
As luck would have it, Ling Xinqin was in the same car as Ling Ruolan.
Even though Ling Xinqin had deliberately provoked her before, when they were so close to each other in a relatively closed space, her inherent inferiority in front of Ling Ruolan suddenly emerged.
And, also, fear!
"Second sister..."
She tried to speak, "Before, at the gate of the mansion, I just wanted to piss off Ling Jing. But I was afraid that it would be too obvious that she would hate me. You know, she is now the regent princess, and I can't offend her openly. So I'm saying this about you as well. You won't blame me, will you..."
His eyes seemed to be directed at Ling Ruolan, but in fact he wanted to look away immediately.
This face is so disgusting!
That bitch Aunt Lan put her and Ling Ruolan together when she was arranging the carriage. She did it on purpose!
Ling Ruolan tilted her head slightly to look at her, and Ling Xinqin almost screamed and vomited.
I tried hard to hold it back and still managed a smile.
"Second sister, you have to believe me, everything I say is true..."
Unexpectedly, Ling Ruolan curled the corners of her lips and said, "Do you know why Dad returned to the border at this time?"
Unexpectedly, she suddenly said something like this. Ling Xinqin was stunned and subconsciously asked, "Why?"
At the same time, Baili Feiyue was also thinking about this question.
I raised my eyebrows and looked at the boy who was smiling and looking at her innocently. "I say, have you heard the story of the boy who cried wolf?"
The boy tilted his head slightly, squinting his eyes and smiling, "I was feeling a little uncomfortable anyway."
Baili Feiyue was originally in the same carriage with Ling Xueer. The ninth brother was "unwell" temporarily, so his health was of course very important. For such an event where the whole family gathered together to pay respects to the grandparents, he, the only person to carry on the family line, could not be missing.
The only option was to arrange this "weak" person into the same carriage as her, the "miracle doctor".
He grabbed his wrist and pinched his pulse.
The young man called out, "Sister."
Baili Feiyue looked down and saw two fingerprints on the boy's beautiful wrist, which was a little whiter than ordinary people's.
She was convinced. She had never seen a man with such tender and smooth muscles and bones.
Her movements were big, but she didn't use any strength at all!
After taking the pulse, he changed his hand to feel the pulse.
Frowning slightly, "What have you been doing lately?"
She couldn't see anything unusual, but he certainly didn't look well.
"A lot..." Ling Duan thought of the following things, "eating, sleeping, playing with Yuan'er, paying respects to mom and dad, planting flowers, playing with fish..."
"Just shut up!"
Baili Feiyue rolled her eyes at him, "You are so idle that you have made yourself sick?"
He took out another bottle of medicine and said, "One pill a day."
Seeing the young man take it and immediately swallow a pill, Baili Feiyue rubbed his temple and said, "Now can you tell me why Dad made such a sudden decision?"
Ling Duannian carefully wrapped the medicine bottle and put it on her body before looking up, "Sister, did you really not think of this at all?"
What did she think of?
She really had no idea about this.
Ling Duannian's eyes turned, "I told you, Dad is going to the border because my sisters are all married."
What……
Baili Feiyue's eyes changed slightly, and she suddenly looked at him, "What do you mean..."
"That's what my sister is thinking. Our father is not the kind of blindly loyal person. He knows very well that no matter what he does as a great general, his relatives cannot change the situation and be dragged into it to test him or check him. Just like the calculations you have suffered these times, my sister."
The young man smiled and said, "People will be afraid of you anyway, so why don't you go to the border? You will have power in your hands. Others may be more afraid of you, but they won't easily plot against us, your children."
"If anything really happened to any of you sisters, Dad would definitely not start a rebellion. But, if it makes the person who hurt you unable to sleep or eat, he might still do it."
Baili Feiyue's eyes flickered slightly.
People like my father can do this for his family.
It can be said that he is a very qualified father.
Then he thought about this incense-burning trip and guessed that he probably had no plans to return to Beijing during his lifetime.
That's why the whole family came out in such an orderly manner. It was also the last time for him to personally go and burn incense for his grandparents.
My father has made up his mind to stay at the frontier, thousands of miles away, to protect his children in peace in Kyoto...
In Ling Ruolan and Ling Xinqin's carriage.
Ling Xinqin wasn't really interested in whether or when her father would go to the border.
Regardless of whether her father goes to the frontier or not, he doesn't have much time to spend with her.
In the past twenty years, she didn't remember much about her father, but she still came here. Moreover, now that she is married, it doesn't matter anymore.
She only hoped that her father would live longer and the general's prestige would remain.
It would be fine if the General’s Mansion could serve as a strong backer and not decline!
But after Ling Ruolan said that, she didn't say anything for a long time. She felt impatient in her heart, but pretended to ask again, "Second sister, why is that? I really can't bear to leave my father. He has just come back for a short time, and he will leave again in a month..."
He even used his sleeve to wipe the corners of his eyes where there were no tears.
Ling Ruolan glanced at her calmly and said calmly, "Because our Ling family has a very powerful force in secret, so powerful that even the current emperor is wary of it and suspicious of it."
Ling Xinqin was terrified even though she didn't know much. "Second sister..."
