Don’t Show the Son

   Chapter 171

   Zhang Jing looked at Zhao Lingjun and Lin Xiu, and gradually understood.

   Zhang Huai's name for him has always been "Lin," Zhang Jing did not think that he was the once famous Zhao Lingjun's fiance.

   But even if he knew earlier, the events of today would not change.

  What about Zhao Lingjun's fiancé, Zhao Lingjun's man can't bully the Zhang family.

   Of course, he thinks more now.

   His two guards are only one step away from the upper realm.

   But in front of Zhao Lingjun, they didn't even have a chance to take action. How terrifying is her strength?

   And the only daughter of the Xue family, what is her relationship with Lin Xiu?

  The Zhang family is naturally not afraid of the Xue family, but they absolutely do not want to oppose the Xue family.

   Today's events have completely exceeded his expectations and control. . .

   He glanced at Zhang Huai, Zhang Huai lowered his head in a guilty conscience.

  Zhang Jing was silent for a moment, then said: "Today, it's the honorable husband who started the incident first. The majesty of the Zhang family is not to be provoked, but I will give Miss Zhao a face, let's go."

   Zhang Jing's voice fell, and the pressure on the old man and the middle-aged man suddenly disappeared. They got up from the ground with difficulty, followed behind Zhang Jing, and were about to leave.

   At this moment, several figures flew from the direction of the palace and landed in front of them.

   is headed by a middle-aged man with a white face and no beard.

When    saw this person, in the crowd, the pretty widow's expression was slightly startled.

Zhu Jin showed her a kind smile, and when he looked at Zhang Jing, Lin Xiu and others, his expression returned to calm, and said, "Your Majesty has a purpose to bring all the people who caused this chaos into the palace for personal trial. , Third Young Master, Young Master Lin, come with us."

   Zhang Jing was silent, and Lin Xiu didn't say anything.

   Zhu Jin took two steps forward and said to Zhao Lingjun very politely: "Don't worry Miss Zhao, Your Majesty just asked Young Master Lin a few words."

   Zhao Lingjun nodded slightly and released Lin Xiu's hand.

   A priest behind Zhu Jin waved his sleeves, and everyone got up from the ground and flew towards the palace.

  Xue Ning'er looked at the woman in front of her, her heart sour.

   She has never craved power like this moment.

   She can't even protect the people she likes. What's the use of her practicing so hard?

   She wanted to say thank you to Zhao Lingjun, but found that she was not even qualified to say thank you.

   They are one family, Zhao Lingjun took action for him, it is only natural, what is she?

   Zhao Lingjun turned around and saw Xue Ning'er too.

   She saw the unwillingness and loss in the woman's eyes, and seemed to have thought of something. She was silent for a moment and said, "Sorry."

  Xue Ning'er wiped her eyes and said, "Don't say sorry, who made your life better?"

   She just sighed in her heart that if she had been born a year earlier, in Zhao's family, called Zhao Ning'er, she would be the one who could stand by Lin Xiu's side just now...

  …

  After Lin Xiu and others were brought into the palace by Zhu Jin, the pretty widow was taken to a side hall, while Lin Xiu, Zhang Jing, Zhang Huai, Wu Wenyuan, and Liu Qingfeng were taken to the imperial study.

   Emperor Xia sat behind the imperial case and looked at the documents, but he didn't seem to see them at all.

   Wu Wenyuan and Liu Qingfeng saw the emperor for the first time, and immediately knelt down after entering the hall.

   Zhang Huai was frightened and fell to his knees.

   In fact, he could have avoided kneeling, but the development of things completely exceeded his expectations, and his legs were too weak to stand still.

   Zhang Jing and Lin Xiu stood on both sides.

   Zhang Jing's expression was indifferent as usual, and Lin Xiu's mind was not here at all.

He didn't expect Zhao Lingjun to appear. He deliberately made such a big noise outside, of course, to let Emperor Gou know that his secret investigators were not for dry meals. If there was a sensation in Dongcheng, he would definitely investigate and report it immediately. go up.

   He did not wait for Zhu Jin first, but Zhao Lingjun instead.

  It's no surprise that Zhao Lingjun would help him. After all, they are nominally husband and wife, so it would be strange if they didn't help. What he was surprised was that Zhao Lingjun was really in the upper-level realm...

   How can the gap between people be so big? He can't keep up with the speed of her normal practice even if he starts hanging up...

  Everyone had their own thoughts, and the imperial study was quiet.

   At a certain moment, Lin Xiu's ear suddenly heard a wind.

   A wind blew from outside the hall, blowing Lin Xiu's clothes, and a figure came from the wind and landed on the hall.

   It was a middle-aged man. The moment this middle-aged man appeared, Xia Huang finally put down the memorial, walked out of the imperial case quickly, and said, "Why did my brother come in person, Zhu Jin, give me a seat."

   The middle-aged man said with a smile: "Your Majesty doesn't need to be too polite, this evil son caused trouble, and even His Majesty was alarmed. I will take him back to the house and discipline him properly."

   Huang Xia said with a smile: "It's normal for young people to make mistakes. It's good to give a little admonition. Brother, don't be too harsh on him."

  The middle-aged man said: "I'll take this renegade son back, so that I won't disturb Your Majesty."

   Huang Xia said: "Go ahead and say hello to Duke Dingguo on my behalf."

   The middle-aged man waved his sleeves, and a gust of wind rolled up Zhang Jing, flew out of the hall, and disappeared into the sky.

   Emperor Xia looked at the direction where the two disappeared, the smile on his face gradually solidified, and after a long time, his expression returned to Gujing without waves, and he looked at Lin Xiu and the others.

   Feeling the sight of the emperor, Wu Wenyuan lowered his head deeply, his whole body trembling.

  Liu Qingfeng's back was also soaked with cold sweat.

   Zhang Huai trembled even more, Zhang Jing was taken away, what should he do?

   Emperor Xia looked at Lin Xiu and asked, "Do you know the crime?"

  Lin Xiu said honestly: "This minister is convicted."

   Emperor Xia asked: "Tell me, what's your fault?"

Lin Xiudao: "I am the son of an earl, I shouldn't commit this crime and embarrass a first-class son of the Duke. He forcibly robs a civilian girl, and I should treat him as if he didn't see it. I have caused trouble to Your Majesty, please punish Your Majesty alone. That's good, let go of Lord Wu and Lord Liu, they all act in accordance with the law and are loyal to the imperial court and His Majesty..."

  Wu Wenyuan and Liu Qingfeng were grateful, Liu Qingfeng said: "Your Majesty, this minister is also involved in this matter, and I am willing to accept the punishment!"

  Wu Wenyuan also felt a bit **** in his heart, and said in a trembling voice: "Wei Chen is also willing to receive punishment..."

   Huang Xia was silent for a moment, then said indifferently: "You two act impartially, what's wrong?"

   He looked at Wu Wenyuan and asked, "What is your name and what is your official position?"

  Wu Wenyuan said: "Go back to Your Majesty, Wei Chen Wu Wenyuan, who lives in Dongcheng."

   Huang Xia looked at Liu Qingfeng again and asked, "How about you?"

  Liu Qingfeng said: "Go back to Your Majesty, Liu Qingfeng, the head of the Department of Officials and Qing Li."

Emperor Xia nodded, then said: "Wu Wenyuan, the commander of Dongcheng, is not afraid of power and fulfills his duties. Now he has been promoted to the commander of the capital, in charge of the people's livelihood in the four cities, and a third-class loyal and brave man is added to show the award. , to be promoted to the top official of the Qing Dynasty, plus the third class of An Huabo..."

  Wu Wenyuan and Liu Qingfeng were both stunned, didn't they say that they should be punished, why did they increase their ranks?

   Zhang Huai was also stunned.

   Isn't An Huabo his father? Did Your Majesty forget that Daxia already has an An Huabo?

The title of the dignitary will not be repeated. If there is a first-class An Huabo, there will be no third-class An Huabo. Unless the first-class An Huabo dies and no one inherits the title, this title will be vacant and can be added to it. others.

   To say something unlucky, even if his father passed away unexpectedly, the new An Huabo should be him.

   His Majesty seemed to have a bad memory, but Zhang Huai didn't dare to remind him.

   At this moment, Emperor Xia waved his hand and said, "The others go, Lin Xiu stays."

The three of them were confused. His Majesty brought them to the palace and said that he wanted to interrogate them in person, but he did not interrogate them at all. You are unpredictable...

   But, after the three of them walked out of the imperial study and came to the square in front of the palace, Zhu Jin said to Wu Wenyuan and Liu Qingfeng: "The two adults are waiting here, and I will leave the palace with Young Master Lin later."

After   , he looked at Zhang Huai indifferently and said, "You, come with me..."

  In the imperial study.

   Huang Xia looked at Lin Xiu and asked in a deep voice, "Are you designing me again this time?"

  Lin Xiu innocently said: "This time it's really not..."

   He will admit that he did it, but he didn't do it, and he can't be put on the hat by others.

He looked at Emperor Xia and said, "Your Majesty's remarks made the minister very sad. The Zhang family is the first big family in Daxia, and the father of the minister is only a small first-class uncle. Offending the Zhang family in this way is not to save the future empress..."

   Emperor Xia looked into his eyes, was silent for a moment, and said, "I'm the one who blamed you."

  Lin Xiu struck while the iron was hot, and said, "Your Majesty has always rewarded and punished clearly. Both Lord Wu and Lord Liu have rewarded them, my minister..."

   In order to save his woman, he offended the top wealthy family in Daxia, don't order anything, this time it's really a big loss.

   Huang Xia said angrily: "You have forced me to reward you with so many things, and you still want to reward me, do you think I am your cash cow!"

Lin Xiudao said, "I don't want money. Your Majesty can add a title to your father. It's alright. He is just a small first-class uncle. No one can offend you. If you rewarded two lords, but did not reward your ministers, the common people would say that Your Majesty rewarded and punished unfairly…”

   Huang Xia sneered and said, "You will think about me."

  Lin Xiu said: "It is the duty of the minister to share the worries for Your Majesty."

   Huang Xia thought for a while and said, "This time, I will accept your love and give him a three-wait at most. Your father has been promoted too fast in the past year. If you want to be promoted later, it depends on your ability."

  Lin Xiu looked at him and asked, "What kind of skills do you have?"

  Xia Huang said: "If you can be promoted to the upper realm, I will give him the title directly. If you are promoted to the sky, why not give him a second-class duke?"

  Lin Xiu thought about it and asked, "What if you were in the upper realm?"

   Huang Xia said with a sneer: "In the upper realm of Tianjie, I will give your family a hereditary first-class prince. Your father, you, your son, and your grandson are all first-class princes in Daxia."

  Lin Xiu asked again: "What if the ministers are promoted to the top?"

   Huang Xia glanced at him and said, "What are you doing in the Spring and Autumn Dreams, if you can set foot on the supreme, and use me to seal it, then it is not me who seals you, but you come to seal me..."
