Luoyang Brocade Chapter 347: Reunion (2)
Everyone was very excited when they reunited after a long separation.
As soon as they entered the inner hall, everyone couldn't wait to ask questions.
"Ah Shu, when the Queen was deposed, I heard that the people around her were also affected. You didn't suffer any grievances, right?"
"Ah Shu, are you still working as an errand with the Queen?"
"Ah Shu, how are you doing in the palace?"
"A Shu..."
Facing the concerned faces and concerned inquiries, Ling Jingshu felt extremely warm in her heart. It feels really good to know that someone is always caring about you and that you are never alone.
"Don't be impatient, just listen to me slowly."
Ling Jingshu calmed down quickly and said in a very gentle voice: "After the Queen was deposed, many people around her died, and half of them were imprisoned in the sky prison. I also stayed in the sky prison for two months. ..."
Ling Xiao took a breath and interrupted Ling Jingshu reflexively: "You didn't suffer in the prison, did you?"
Ling Jingyan also looked nervous and worried: "Yes, I definitely didn't have enough food and clothing to keep warm in the prison. Then, how did you get out?"
Ling Jingshu smiled reassuringly: "Don't worry, I only stayed for two months, and the emperor personally issued an order to let me out of the prison. Later, he kept me as a female officer in the Zichen Palace. More than three months ago , Empress Xianfei opened her mouth again and asked me to come to Lingbo Palace. Now, I am working as an errand beside the empress."
In just a few words, everyone who listened was dumbfounded and shocked.
Ling Jingshu said it calmly, but her experiences this year have been so surprising!
This year, I changed three places!
Especially the Zichen Palace, which is the emperor's bedroom. I don't know how many people in the palace have their heads sharpened and want to work as servants in Zichen Palace. It was too easy for Ling Jingshu to come and go! How could Concubine Wei Xian suddenly ask for someone?
After all, Uncle Ling has been involved in officialdom for many years and is far more perceptive than others. He figured out all the anomalies after just a moment's thought. Su Rong asked: "Ah Shu, why did the emperor suddenly summon you to the Zichen Palace? How could the Concubine Xian ask for someone from the emperor? Tell us what the reason is."
Ling Jingshu would not tell the truth, so she said lightly: "There are indeed some reasons. However, these are all things in the past, and there is nothing to say. As long as you know, I will give Xian Fei Your Majesty is on an errand, so I just need to be treated very well by the Concubine Xian."
Ling Jingshu refused to say more, and it was difficult for Uncle Ling to get to the bottom of it.
Ling Xiao and Ling Jingyan didn't say anything either, thinking to themselves that they would just ask the reason later when they had some free time in private.
"Ah Shu, it's New Year's Eve today, can you spend the night in the house before going back?" asked Sun with a smile.
Ling Jingshu responded apologetically: "There are rules in the palace. You must return to the palace before the palace gate closes, and you are not allowed to stay outside overnight. Therefore, I can only stay until the afternoon and then return to the palace."
It’s been so long since I came back, it turns out I can only stay for half a day!
Ling Xiaojun's face darkened, and he felt sad.
However, after studying in the Imperial College for a year, he was no longer the innocent and naive young man who did not understand the world. It's not easy to leave the palace, and I don't know when we will see each other again. It's better not to talk about this, lest Ah Shu feel sad.
Ling Xiao cheered up and changed the subject: "A Shu, my father returned to Dingzhou a month ago."
Ling Jingshu’s attention was indeed attracted: “Did something happen in Dingzhou?”
Ling Xiao hummed, without hiding anything, and told the whole story: "A letter came from Dingzhou, saying that the fourth brother climbed a tree in a naughty moment and fell from the tree. Although there was no danger of life, one leg was injured. It would be difficult to walk in the future. My mother cried and begged my father to go back, so my father packed up the ceremony and set off back to Dingzhou."
Ling Xiao said it implicitly, but the implication was very clear.
Ling Huo has lost one of his legs, and it will be difficult to recover in the future.
Just like the blind Ling Xiao, Ling Huo will never be able to take the imperial examination again in this life. From now on, I can only live in the house with good food and drink, and be a useless person for the rest of my life.
This must be an unbearable blow to stepmother Li, who has high expectations for her son to become a successful child!
I don’t know if this was an accident or if Ling Ting did it secretly. In short, Ling Huo's life is over. No matter how sad and despairing Ms. Li was, she could only accept this accident.
In the previous life, Mrs. Li was so cruel that she took Ling Xiao’s life. In this life, she also received retribution.
Ling Jingshu said lightly, with no sadness on her face. She thought it was okay to pretend and deceive the Ling family. However, she was in a really good mood and had no intention of pretending.
Uncle Ling felt a little unhappy.
Ling Huan is Ling Jingshu's younger brother after all. When she heard that he was injured, she was so cold.
However, it was a rare occasion for her to return home, and as an uncle, it was not convenient for him to reprimand her.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit condensed, Mrs. Sun quickly changed the topic with a smile: "A'shu, there is a happy event in the house that I haven't had time to tell you! A'yan has already made a marriage arrangement and will get married in March next year."
Ling Jingshu was quite surprised: "Really? I wonder who my future cousin-in-law is?"
When it comes to her life-long events, Ling Jingyan, who has always been cheerful, lively and generous, is also a little shy: "You know me too."
After thinking for a moment, Ling Jingshu knew who the other party was: "It must be Mr. Zhang!"
Ling Jingyan blushed and nodded: "Yes. After I got my hairpin this year, the Zhang family came to propose marriage. My parents felt that the Zhang family was upright, so they agreed to the marriage."
To be honest, Ling Jingyan didn't have any particular fondness for him at first. Zhang Jian shamelessly visited the house several times, and the two bickered back and forth when they met. Unexpectedly, they gradually developed feelings for each other. They are completely a pair of happy enemies!
Ling Jingshu was sincerely happy for Ling Jingyan.
The Zhang family and the Ling family are also considered to be well-matched. That Zhang Jian fell in love with Ling Jingyan at first sight ~IndoMTL.com~ When they get married in the future, he will definitely treat her well.
……
After lunch.
Ling Jingshu returned to her long-lost boudoir to say farewell to Ling Xiao.
"Ah Shu, what happened to you in the palace?" Ling Xiao couldn't wait to ask: "You hid it from your uncle and them, so don't hide it from me."
Ling Jingshu smiled, and indeed she did not hide anything from him, and slowly told him everything that happened in the palace.
This took more than half an hour.
Ling Xiao's handsome face turned pale at first and she looked nervous. When she heard the part where the emperor summoned her to the Zichen Palace, her face was full of anger and her hands were clenched into fists.
After hearing it again, I slowly relaxed.
"Ah Shu, this palace is a place where people can eat people without spitting out their bones." After hearing this, Ling Xiao's eyes were red: "I don't know how you survived this year." ( To be continued.)
